Cali Crasher #CannapediaGrowersCup4th

mutantfarmer Both plants are doing fine. They received watering with settled water over the week. They weren't affected by the aphid attack that I mentioned in my Freakshow x Bastard report, but they got the same treatment as the other plants.

mutantfarmer This week I transplanted both Kalies into their final volume pots, as I wasn't happy with their development in the small cups. At the moment of transplanting the first plant, I discovered that the substrate was almost not filled with roots and was turning into a solid lump. I transplanted it into local producer soil, which it was growing in, but mixed it well with coconut and perlite. However, I don't expect any special results; I'll just leave it to see how it develops further. A couple of days later, I stumbled upon TOP CROP peat substrate (Spain) in a shop, sold in 10L bags, and without hesitation, I grabbed it since there’s no good soil around my area anymore (the factory packaging from the producer is 50L, and I didn't want to take that right away since I don't grow in soil and that volume is unnecessary for me). And, damn it, I can't remember the last time I was this happy about a really good, airy, and crumbly mix. All the peat-based substrates I've tried lately have really disappointed me. So, in my excitement, I added a bit of washed coco + perlite, filled an 8L AirPot with the resulting mix, and transplanted the second little Kalie; she will be my choice for participating in the cup. Watering around the edge of the pot with clean water at a pH of 6.4.

mutantfarmer Vegetation, Week 3. Kali Crushing has a slightly unhealthy light green tint to its leaves. I think 1-2 waterings until drainage and the situation will improve. I haven't watered the substrate yet to avoid overwatering. This week, I watered around the edge of the pot with clean water at a pH of 6.4.

mutantfarmer CC#1 #CannapediaGrowersCup4th (AirPot) The Cup Kali Bandit is feeling great, received its first watering to drainage with added nutrients. The root system has reached the bottom of the pot, which means nothing is stopping the plant from picking up speed and gradually moving to more frequent waterings. I performed LST by securing the plant to the edge of the pot with a plastic tie. This week, there was a single watering with G.H.Feeding Grow + pH Down, with readings of 6.4pH and 650ppm. CC#2 (GrowBag) is developing well without any issues. I did some TOPPING. Either I’ll just stretch the plant a bit, trying to make it compact and test the buds, or I’ll try to implement an idea on it, I haven't decided yet. It hasn't received any waterings this week.

mutantfarmer CC#1 #CannapediaGrowersCup4th Cali - showed sex and readiness to flower. I pulled the top a bit closer to the pot. This week there were 2 waterings until drainage. G.H.Feeding Grow + pH Down, with readings of 6.6pH and 750ppm. G.H.Feeding Grow + pH Down, with readings of 6.4pH and 650ppm.

mutantfarmer The girl Kali is feeling great, growing thick strong branches and actively absorbing moisture from the soil. I did some defoliation and topped the last 2 levels. Unfortunately, I can't switch the plant to flowering yet; I think I'll do it next week and really hope to make the timeline since there are exactly 11 weeks left until the end of the cup, just as the flowering stage should take (10-11 weeks). The fan leaves show the dominance of Sativa - the fingers are elegant, straight, and narrow. Watering G.H.Feeding Grow + pH Down, with readings of 6.7pH and 750ppm. G.H.Feeding Grow + pH Down, with readings of 6.6pH and 550ppm - I gave a watering with a reduced dosage, and for the next watering, I will switch to G.H.Feeding Hybrid. + There was a one-time leaf treatment with Simplex Vega this week.

mutantfarmer I haven't been working on my plants because of the "reset" of my greenhouse. + I'm testing the video format, while this is the first "raw" draft. Cali #CannapediaGrowersCup4th is a powerful plant, easily survived all the stresses that fate threw at her. Even though she spent 5 days under indoor light and was lying in a box — she quickly bounced back and hardly stretched from the lack of light, just slightly grew her branches. In the next couple of days, I'll set up her box and flip her to flower. G.H.Feeding Grow + pH Down, with readings of 6.2-6.5pH and 700-750ppm, every 2-3 days.

mutantfarmer I did some defoliation, stretched Kali to 12 col along the edge of the pot, and switched to a 12/12 lighting schedule. I set up a 60x60 box for her again with a Siyanie 105w and added ladybugs for prevention. Right now, when rubbing the stem, there are aromas — sweet-tart, reminiscent of gingerbread with sour-fruity-floral notes. Switched to G.H. Feeding Hybrids for color nutrients. Watering every 2-3 days with pH levels of 6.2-6.5 and 750-900ppm for a week.

mutantfarmer #CannapediaGrowersCup4th I set up 2 red light strips SIYANIE Red Booster 660nm with a total power of 30w. The Cali is growing actively, showing a good appetite. I removed the fan leaves that were overlapping each other, hindering the even distribution of the colas. A few times I adjusted the colas to the same height when they started to outgrow each other. Throughout the week, I did daily waterings with G.H.Feeding Hybrids, 6.2-6.6 pH with increasing concentration. At the beginning of the week, the watering was ~850ppm, output ~650, by the end of the week it reached an input of 1020, output ~850. As a result, the last watering was at 950 with an output of 860.

mutantfarmer Kali drinks and eats well, feels fine. She's noticeably grown, I'm constantly adjusting the stakes for evenness, and she's already forming buds. Throughout the week, daily waterings with G.H. Feeding Hybrids, 6.2-6.3 pH, 930-960 ppm. + I did a foliar treatment with Simplex Mass.

mutantfarmer Kali is still actively developing, the buds are gaining mass. I reduced the base and I'm adding Booster PK+ from G.H.Feeding to the solution. For a week, daily waterings with G.H.Feeding Hybrids + Booster PK, 6.2-6.3 pH, 930-980 ppm.

mutantfarmer Each cola is covered with a massive bud and exudes a bright sweet aroma. I hope I can avoid mold; I'm thinking of doing a preventive treatment using Fitospirin. I left the boxes without watering for a couple of days (didn't check if the timer was on🙈). The Kali experienced drought, and along with it, a good salt buildup; when I watered, it showed readings of 1400ppm, and I'm gradually lowering the level by watering with a solution of 850-900 ppm. Daily waterings for a week: Before the drought: G.H.Feeding Hybrids + Booster PK, 6.2-6.3 pH, 930-980 ppm. After the drought: G.H.Feeding Hybrids + Booster PK, 6.2-6.3 pH, 850-900 ppm.

mutantfarmer I raised the colas to level 1 again. For the salinity - I managed to bring the reading down from 1400ppm to 1150ppm by automatically watering the plant with an increased volume of solution, for 1 minute every 4 hours. I think I'll flush with FloraKleen. Daily waterings for the week: G.H. Feeding Hybrids, 6.2-6.3 pH, 820-850 ppm

mutantfarmer Kali is on a drop, I'm watering with a solution at ~850ppm and every couple of days at 700. I didn't flush with special solutions and I'm still going at the same pace. Daily waterings for the week: G.H. Feeding Hybrids, 6.2-6.3 pH, 820-850 ppm

mutantfarmer Kali is growing nice dense buds that are turning the colas into one big nug. I hope to finish the report for #CannapediaGrowersCup4th, need to harvest CC in 2.5, at most 3 weeks. Daily watering for the week: G.H.Feeding Hybrids, 6.2-6.3 pH, 820-850 ppm

mutantfarmer To speed up the process, I switched Cali to Final Part from Terra Aquatica. Cali will stay on it until 12.02, then 2-3 days of flushing, and there will be another week for drying. Daily waterings during the week: T.A. Final Part, 6.3-6.5 pH, 760-780 ppm

mutantfarmer Daily waterings for a week: T.A. Final Part, 6.3-6.5 pH, 760-780 ppm Before harvest, 3 days of watering with T.A. FlashClean
