Without 4G for a moment, this is my first post & diary here... germination: 72h 22c° paper toilet Seedling: 0.5l CoverCrop substrate info: @alchimia NPK: 14/12/18 Grain: End (0/5) Organic Matter: 5%. Electroconductivity: 1.1 µS/cm Relative humidity: 60%. pH: 5.5 - 6.5 ----------------- Living soil: Easy i& cheap in FR Terralba's 50L Pack contains: 2Kg worm compost (NPK 2,3/1,5/2,4) 1Kg volcanic basalt 500g zeolite 250g bat guano, growth (NPK: 5-3-2) 500g bat guano, bloom (NPK : 5-11-2 + 1,25% MgO) 250g mealworm guano 100g Epsom salts (Magnesium sulphate) (buy @ alchimia) +- 40€ So without money i started 3+1 Tropical poison @sweetseeds (16€) without all material for indoor growing. This is testing setup in my laundry room..there is an air outlet 120cm. All material was pourchached via leboncoin and in first i had humidifier 6l and T & H controler. Then a fan ( too big) (monckey fan secret jardin) At the start was without programmers so i do manualy dio what need... 2 week ago regulating by my self (d'ont do that) So i pourchase all things at his period... Fucking lost my phone and web access in week 2 so didnt start this in a time... week 4 i use lactoserum in KNF way because temperature was too hot. week 5 late i use my urine in wait for purchased material for active compost tee.. Girls are ok, see you, so i messed defoliation, and my mistake, changed pot early and only one tie, so theses indica didn't grow... Peace and love

Hello, Was lazy for the last week and only do some defoliation (not as nedded) First week flowering... All seems to be fine and i'm happy. LED is at 33 cm and 75% This is a organic setup and a do a bloom compost tea, will reiterate probably week 3, and 5 and 7 (if girls need it) watering: Blackstrap molasses 4ml per L 1 time a week, then 1x/w Epsom salt 2,5g per L, " Actively aerated compost tea is a fermented liquid extracted from compost with oxygen presence. Thanks to this technique it is possible to quickly extract all nutrients " Bloom compost tea preparation during 24h at 21 c° : Vermicompost 25g per L, Blackstrap molasses 1ml per L, Spiruline 0.5g per L, Mealworm (organic flour) guano 1g per L, Alfalfa 2.5g per L, Comfrey 2.5g per L 1L per pot.

I didn't defoliate enough before the flowering phase and I waited as much as possible before defoliating towards the end of week 2 of 12/12. During this time I reduced the humidity by increasing the temperature a little. With the collected leaves, I made a fermented juice according to the KNF method, and I composted the other part. The outdoor climate is warmer and more humid. between day 8 and 10 of 12/12 I increased the LED from 75% to 100%. The temperature in the laundry room has also risen. I only use the auxiliary heating at night to be 6°c below the daytime temperature (25°C) On day 12 I gave again a compost tea (the recipe is in the last week), but without the epsom salt. I'm learning this frowning fast and plan to give the tea every 12 days. I bought a box to create a second space, but it was moldy and had holes so I adapted while waiting to find another one. I used the metal structure in the laundry room to hang the equipment and I took out the chairs to move around better... The smell rises slowly and I put the carbon filter in place, the air extraction goes into the ventilation of the building. I hope this test will be ok, that's the reason for my test of this new installation. With the change of time winter - summer, I thought there was a breakdown and I forced the lighting of the led one hour too early... It's stupid, just after having defoliated them. I am worried and I ask the question of how to adapt the girls to this change. Peace & Love and Punk !

HI; In flowering I turned on the led one hour too early. What to do now to shock the girls as little as possible? Resume the usual cycle or stay on 12/12 since the new schedule ? Thanks

Don't worry, 1 hour might be OK - they need a minimum of 10 hours of darkness each night unbroken to flower, so 11 hours should be ok. That said, as you clearly know already, you are risking confusing the plants body clock each time you change the number of light hours. With that in mind, keep an eye out for problems now - specifically hermie male flowers - and don't do it again! 😊 Good luck!

Hello, Who prayed to the gardening gods, following the brutal defoliation and the shift in the light cycle? lol No hermas a week later... A sprinkling with molasses, and the second with calcium made but according to the WCA recipe of the KNF technique. I want to go towards 100% KNF techniques, and I begin to create my products. This week I prepared for the future, a LAB (Lactic Acid Bacteria) Discover the (DIY) KNF applied to cannabis in the 2fast4buds article: https://2fast4buds.com/news/diy-organic-nutrients-knf We are on day 20 of flowering; This week I did some LST to adjust the height of buds (besides the prayers) and from now on I won't touch them...just feed them compost tea every 12 days and the rest of the time as per observations. I have time to dream about my next session and I look at your gardens. Peace & Love & PUNK !

The terpenes and the smell are fine. I found a few bananas which I removed, otherwise nothing special. Ah yes, I stopped the heating and it's 23°C

Harvest on day 50 of flowering...More quantity than expected. Will come back with smoke / weight report. Super soil, some knf and organic nutrients help me to have big buds and unique terpene profile.
