Chugging along. Really stretching now and starting to show first signs of real buds. Plants are taking in more water now so I upped the feed from 1.5 to 2 litres. Haven't moved the lights, just letting the plants grow up to them. Rotating plants around 90 degrees at least once weekly. No more defoliation, leaving the LST spots alone but making sure they're not strangling branches in any way. Ride, ride, ride, let it ride!

Hi all. Welcome to this run withbthe Viparspectra XS1500 which i was kindly sent to try by their helpful rep Valerie. As I have a fairly good space to use for my main grow , it seemed an ideal time to explore a few options while I wait for space to appear following upcoming harvests. The opportunity hit at a good time and has now driven the future play time. lol The light is a full spectrum 150W( at the socket) , Dimmable and very well made unit. As summer is here now , my concerns of more heat being an issue have stopped me from adding my other light so the smaller 2ftx2ft area covered by the XS1500 is a good option , The heatsink is built into the case design with a finned top to dissipate the heat so no noisy fans. Switching it on to full power was a nice surprise as the footprint was way wider than I had expected and the actual coverage is even better for my Nursery to harvest plan.... I am growing autos perpetually at present and have been able to throughput the plants with just 2 lights and using the overlaps at the edges to bring seedlings along to veg/flowering, as harvesting is finishing. The timing had been working well but the plants were getting smaller towards the last runs . I gave it some thought and Rh % came to mind. With the perpetual runs not having a higher rh in their veg periods due to other plants needing a lower Rh% in flower , the vapour pressure deficit (vpd) was not within veg periods healthier range. This current run has exploded and filled my normal space very quickly which in turn means I cannot use the same principle as the last perpetual run of bringing the next ones along ready for the exchanges. The XS1500 takes care of this issue with it being perfect for an initial nursery light that is easily covering all the new seedlings but is also able to cover my experimental "5 plant 1 Pot" attempt. I have placed 5 of my own autob seeds from a previous seeding in a single 60 L pot and intend to strip them to their 4th nodes and only allow 2 mains per plant to develop and flower. Inam hoping to have 10 mains growing in it that will be under the xs1500 solely as the other plants outgrow the lights footprint and space they are in. They will go into the main grow space once able so i can really see how well this new light can flower with the 10 mains to fill the space. Until that point , I will diary as we go and see what we can achieve.

Hello everyone, what's up? 🙂 Week 17 and that's cool because last year my plant was finished by this age (harvested middle of October) and had to deal with cold environment, bugs and budrot. This year I'm sooner for flowering, had a longer vegative stage wich means more growth and bigger buds and I can/will (hopefully) harvest during first week of October. I'm aiming for 10 weeks of flowering. A good week, nice development on the buds, a stronger smell and I think I see some cola's already fattening up. This is the same I saw last year around week 5 to 6 of flowering. I think I'm halfway through the process by now. I'm still doubting to give some green sensation. Not so organic anymore then haha. I will give water in 2 days, the pot still doesn't feel very light so she can go on for some time with the moist in the soil. Then I will check PH values and give very light feeding. I'm not going to give more then 2ml alga bloom on 1 liter of water. More supporting nutrients then overfeeding 🙂 The weather is giving me a hard time here again. Some good days, some rainy days and at night always temperatures between 10°-15° Celsius. I put her inside in the garden house or inside in the backroom for the dark hours or when the 3 weather apps I have installed tell me there is rain coming up😅 This is not always easy to accomplish with my working hours (early, late and night shifts shedule) I like to have some sleep too 😁 All good so far. Fingers crossed with at least 5 more weeks to go 🤞 I will post some more pictures the upcoming days. Busy time here haha. Happy growing friends, see u next week 🙏

Buds are still not growing the way I would like. But okay there are plenty of them. Hopefully they are potent.

The production of trichomes is improving every time and the terpene profile is great, without a doubt a good BHO will come out of those flowers

This week was full of new growth! I switched the ladies to their bloom nutrients for the first time and they seem to love them. The budlets are getting bigger every day and the ladies are looking beautiful! I hope everyone has a Happy New Year! Be Safe and stay green! 🤙🏾

Apr 6 - I'm adjusting ph on watering days - was using straight rain water, but it's ph is too high ~7.0. LST Northern Lights, reacted really well to it. Adjusted 04/07. Pink berry really kicking it up - 9 hrs into lights on, big difference from lights on. Bubblegum is a real beast. Just takes my mistakes. Apr 10 - Between apr 8 and 10th, there was a big boost in growth. Well ph'd water goes a long way. Pink berry is a beast, bubblegum phenomenal looking. Northern Lights doing good - you can tell I fucked it up in comparison.

Como estamos familia, a día de hoy, viernes, llevamos exactamente 7 días en la fase de floración y todas ellas están marcadas por su sexo. Todo va sobre ruedas, tenemos mínimas de 20,5 y maximas de 28,5 grados. la humedad no supera nunca el 60%. Altura mínima lemon kush 25cm. Altura maxima northern light xl 42cm. •las power plant xl Han pegado un estirón serio, están empezando a ensanchar bastante. •una marea verde desde semilla, con tan solo 5 semanas de crecimiento y un solo trasplante desde que se germinó, para controlar un mal crecimiento.

Starting week 4 of Flower. I expect things to slow on the upwards growth as the plant shifts focus onto the bud development. Ran out of potassium silicate. Will be continuing with out it for the rest of the grow. Ran out of potassium silicate. Will be continuing with out it for the rest of the grow. Started to notice a slight smell when leaving the door open and returning after a few minutes. This started in the last couple days

The bud rot has officially gone, so what I have left will survive, yay!! Anyway, its been an easy week... much more fun when you are in full control of the environment. Will be pulling her down at the weekend, she's ready now but just want to give it a few more days to just get that extra weight. We got there in the end! See ya next week for the harvest update 😃
