50 Dragons by Ukhta Genetics

GeneticsHunter420 The start was tough, I'm growing in such a small tent for the first time - this led to issues with ventilation and microclimate. I couldn't figure it out for a long time, then I flew to another city for a week, and when I returned, I saw what you can see in the second photo. I immediately understood what the problem was - the expanded clay at the bottom for drainage. I had to carefully unscrew the airpot, remove the bottom, and dig everything out while making sure the plant didn't fall out of the substrate. Then I charged everything well with mycorrhiza and bacteria, and after a couple of days, the plant already took on a healthy color and, in general, started to feel good. But I started training it a bit too early...

GeneticsHunter420 The growth was slow, especially because I think I was overdoing it with the light. The light was set to 70%, and I believe that's too much for such a box and just one plant. But I'm trying to make a strong one! I topped it on the 3rd floor - let's keep going!

GeneticsHunter420 All week I tried to stretch it out and decided to stomp all the branches completely and remove the big leaves to open up more growth points. I hope the plant won't take too long to recover from the stress...

GeneticsHunter420 The plant took a long time to recover after a heavy pruning, but still, it started to slowly gain some green mass :) I'm continuing to stretch it out, and I'm also trimming the big leaves; I think there's no point in wasting energy on them! My idea is to stretch the plant to the edges, properly tie down all the main colas, and switch it to flowering.

GeneticsHunter420 The week went well, the plant just stretched out, I tried not to stress it too much - and in the end, when I saw that it almost reached the edges, I trimmed it again, cutting off the big leaves and weak branches, tied all the colas to the edges of the airpot, and started giving Bud Ignitor three times a week a week before the switch, and once I gave Cannabiogen Delta 9 + Trixomaizer (a cheap alternative to Bud Factor X) to the roots, respectively. I'll give it a week to recover and then switch the light cycle to 12/12.

GeneticsHunter420 A week after the trim, I let her catch her breath and switched to 12/12 - 5 days of flowering behind us - the plant has started to grow really strong, and I don't even know how it's going to look from here on out )) well, we'll see! Wishing everyone big yields! I'm already feeding with the base for flowering + soon I'll turn on the red boosters.

GeneticsHunter420 So, the first week after switching to 12/12 is coming to an end - it went great, the plant is actively gaining mass and stretching a bit more each day. To be honest, this is my first experience with such a super stretch - so I got a little ahead of myself and decided to do some trimming today, removing weak shoots and leaves, so the plant doesn't waste energy and time on their development and can get to flowering as soon as possible! Now it's more of a sporting interest 😄 Enjoying what comes next, friends! Wishing everyone good grows! 🤝💪🏼

GeneticsHunter420 The week went great - the bush almost fully bloomed, everything started happening much faster - after I turned on the red boosters, well, at least that's how it seems to me ) in general, another week is behind us, just in case, I think I'll flush the substrate with Flora Clean - because the pH at the output is acting up - I'll watch for a couple more days, if the situation doesn't improve after changing the nutrient solution, I'll try Flora Clean!

GeneticsHunter420 The week went smoothly, I did a quality defoliation, had some minor temperature issues in the box after I connected the ventilation to the silencer, but everything seems to be going fine, let's see what happens next!🤙🏼

GeneticsHunter420 A week has passed, not without incidents - I got really tired of the noise from the Silent, so I decided to install a silencer - but since the ducting and carbon filter were outside the whole time, I had to completely redo the ventilation. I hung the carbon filter inside - ran ducting from the grow box directly to the inline fan - and everything goes from there to the silencer. The noise problem seems to be solved, but a bunch of other climate-related issues popped up. As you remember, I had 60W red lights hanging on the sides, so to keep it short - I had to take them down and add another fan... Overall, I had to fight through this week ) I also did defoliation a couple of times, without going overboard - and adjusted the ties on the colas to the edges of the airpot since they were too close to each other - when the mass starts to build, I'm sure that if I hadn't made those adjustments, I would have caught mold somewhere! Anyway, check it out, we’re moving forward ) Today I gave Delta 9 to the roots + Trichomizer (simulating insect attack), I've used these things in combination before - I can definitely say that it works, you'll see how much sugar there will be at harvest.

GeneticsHunter420 Here I have to write a big post, but I will do it WITH PLEASURE! So, as we know, it was New Year, and a couple of days before the holiday, I decided to change the ventilation - since I'm a family man and I have a small child, the noise from the duct fan (even though it's low power) is quite annoying. I had a muffler lying around for a bigger one, and the idea struck me: why not install it on the small tent too - the result should be the same, right? So, here's how it was for me - in the box, there were only lamps, outside was a duct fan that was blowing everything through a carbon filter, all of this was lying on the roof of the box - I decided to redo it, shoved the filter halfway into the box, ran the duct to the fan, and from it to the muffler - to be honest, it turned out just PERFECT, the noise is practically inaudible! But, not even a day passed, and I immediately faced the problem of increased temperature in the box, around 32-35 degrees Celsius, the plant started showing signs that it was very hot and it was time to stop torturing it. I remind you, it was New Year, holidays, and I wasn't really focused on the plant; I was feeding it regularly, but that was about it. So, over a couple of days, the leaves of the plant got deformed from the heat, it shriveled up, and I thought maybe the red booster was heating it too much, so I decided to remove it - the next day, the temperature changed by 1-2 degrees at most, and a smell started to appear in the apartment. After another day, the smell was all over the house - but since it was the holidays, I didn't pay much attention to it. So, I decided yesterday that the stench was just unreal, and I completely didn’t understand why, so I decided to redo the ventilation as it was - and then I came across this moment - the duct fan was working in reverse, it was not pulling air out of the box, it was blowing it inside through the filter! The moral of all this is - guys, if you plan to change something in your tent, farm, grow room - always do everything with a clear head and don’t get distracted! Now everything is fine, I redid everything, put the red light back in - the plant, yes, undoubtedly suffered, that was my mistake - but this is another experience and working on my mistakes. Even considering all this mess, the plant is growing and growing every single day, every day I see how it gains mass and how new old white stigmas that are swelling are coming in, and all of this is piling on top of each other. Yesterday I gave Cannabiogen Delta 9 + Trichomizer to the roots (imitation of insect attack), and after a night, noticeable sugar started to appear! So, there are still at least 30 days until harvest - let’s see if it makes it to the end of its life. Happy belated holidays and abundant harvests, friends! 🤝😁🤙🏽

GeneticsHunter420 I'm amazed that after all the suffering it went through, this plant really shows strong genetics. A week has passed calmly, we're eating the same, getting ready for the finish, already 42 days after switching to 12/12. I should start preparing slowly, maybe changing the composition of the mix a bit, but the white stigmas just keep coming and coming, I don't even know :) maybe I should continue in the same spirit? Does anyone have any ideas? 😁 Wishing everyone big yields, friends! 🤙🏽

GeneticsHunter420 The week went pretty well, the mass gain is impressive ) I don't understand ) what will happen next 🤷‍♂️ according to the plans, I still want to hold for about 20 days +/- 🤤 the microscope already shows a lot of milky trichomes, we're waiting, gentlemen ) The bush really looks like a pie ) although not very tall, but the idea is almost realized ) Wishing everyone the tastiest harvests!

GeneticsHunter420 The week went by normally, I don't understand why the white stigmas keep popping up ) the microscope says not yet, there's not even any amber, and of course, the Overdrive has already run out. The plant continues to gain mass - in this case, I decided to resort to Ripen, let's see, I'll wait another week )

GeneticsHunter420 Неделя прошла супер , в микроскопе вижу все молочные трихомы + 2-3% янтаря , из-за того ,что я сэкономил на голубоксе , вонь конечно знатная ) но , неделька прошла отлично и я уже собственно схарвил куст , пока висит кверх ногами , сушится , через пару дней , завершу репорт и все остальное ! Всем больших и вкусных урожаев друзья !

GeneticsHunter420 What a week it has been) In general, guys, never take very similar knock-offs of original grow boxes. Just so you understand, for a tent 60x60x160, there was ventilation like this: a duct fan from Soler & Palau Silent 160/100 NТ, a carbon filter Magic Air 350/125 with a pre-filter (completely new), and all this exhaust went into a silencer 900/200. In general, the SMELL was unbearable, gentlemen, just unbearable... where the zipper lines are on the box, you could see when the light was on... there were 2 clip-on fans blowing - to avoid mold, so the grow box didn't handle the task. I won't be wasting my pennies on such crap again and I don't recommend it to anyone - don't skimp on responsible things and your, first of all, SAFETY, as they say: a penny wise is a pound foolish))) The harvest, as you can see in the microscope photo, had to be done at the stage of fully milky trichomes, although I actually love amber; otherwise, it would probably have smelled not just in the room!) Thanks to everyone who followed the report, and a special RESPECT to the guys from Ukhta Genetics🤝🤙🏻
