Russian Auto (42FastBuds)

So...just one week since last diary entry and some adjusts have been done. First of all, the LED exposure calibration and calculate that exposure on a different set. Try to mantain the vegetative set in order to break one of the most significant handicap of my LED set (Full spectrum- UFO kind -purplish Spectrum lights) that normally during the first weeks of the growth tend to made plants very short and of a splattared kind (almost no space between internodes). The fabric settings say that after the third week normally the growth starts to correct that carachteristic given by the shorten blue spectrum, but after the calibration and the evidencie that after more than a week without a reasonable growth, my solution was to raise the level where i have the growth and i raised around 30 cms that level. So on just four days i noticed a very rapid growth both on height but also on secondary branches. Almost every leaf set and branch insertion on the stalk, have now primary pistils, that indicates one of the most outstanding carachteristic of this strain, that is that the flowering will develop almost on every space of the plant. As i told previously, the "Russian" has a yeld that is composed by a flower that comes from the base of the stalk up to every top to each branch...as the whole plant is almost a compact flower and that's why the "Russian" is so spectacular to the sights when is ready to crop. Due to this pre-flowering evidence i have apllied Delta 9 ( Canabiogen) supply both to the leafs, branches and stalk and some on direct root irrigation. This compound for me is one of the most important supplies of pre-flowering nutrition and has a strong and visible impact both on the quality and amount of the yeld. Normally the Delta 9 induces strongly the terpens and resume amount of the growth and for me it is a low budget way to boost a standard "autoflower" quality to an almost "photoperiod quality" of the final "smoke" product. I am still having some problems to adjust my LED set...i am still managing the propper way to work on LED, both calibrating the distance to the plants and to obtain the optimal coverage. My LED set is by the fabric settings, perfectly capable to manage from 60x60 up to 80x80 areas, but i have noticed by experience that from a seedling start and to the third/fourth week of vegetative, the LED covarage shouldn't be more than 70cms apart from the plant top and even with that measure standard, that splattared carachteristic on the plants on the early weeks of growth will happen neverless. I am now checking very closely the evolution on the growth, precisely by noticing that height grow of more than 10 cms. in just 4 days, and checking any posible stress and unbalance due to this Fast development. I will publish a new diary entry on next weekend and hope for the best and give all of you, "grower brothers", the best news about my "Russian" 2022 season.
