Re-potted on D10 While i was testing my irrigation system, I over-watered the plants. 3 out of 5 begun to show Ca issues, and looked sad. I stopped watering for 3 days, After it things went better

All bushes look quite the same They showed gender on D20 And the smell became very intense The smell is multifruit juice - the real tropicana. I like it. Also, i raised the Lamp 50cm above the tops of bushes, to make them stretch. The next week be the pre-flowering and im gonna change the nutrition For now, they all are very green, and healthy, Each pot drinks 1.250 l of solution daily

Very stressful week as for me Things went good, before d25 I made lst on d23, plants recovered nicely But on d25 they begun to look sad and droopy, without any obvious for me reason. All other conditions are good, temp is ok, They eat good, leaves despite of looking sad, are very firm and moistured, No signs of root rot, the roots of all plants had already reached the bottom of pots, And looking great, white and fluffy. I didnt water them for two days to exclude the over-watering reason And nothing has changed. On d27 four plants recovered, but the 5th is still sad On d28 all plants looked bushy, Thus i decided to defoliate some big fun leaves and non perpective colas, NUTRITION I still give them the veg nutrition To provide enough N for stretching Also, i added Bud Ignitor by AN And sprayed them with Delta Nueve Im going to switch nutrition to bloom on W6

It seems that your plants experienced some stress around day 25, with some recovery by day 27, although one plant still appears to be struggling. Given the conditions you've described – appropriate temperature, stable PPM, firm and moist leaves, and no signs of root rot – the issue could be related to other factors like light stress, humidity fluctuations, or a minor nutrient imbalance. Since most plants recovered, it's likely that the environment is generally suitable. The one that's still struggling might have a slightly different sensitivity or could have experienced a localized issue. Keep monitoring closely, ensure consistent environmental conditions, and consider small adjustments to nutrients if needed.

I have to admit, I really suck at growing the auto's. I dont feel am feeling the plants, like the cycle is going blind, all my succesfully experienced methods do not work with them. Each week is kinda challenge. NUTRITION I flushed the pots with ph'ed and calmag'ed water and switched base nutes into Bloom - added BigBud by AN - added tiny dose PK GROWTH Plants did stretch, some are 40cm, some 50. The height is uneven, i suck at trainings as well. So i did some LST As i dont know whether they stop stretching or not, B52 is still into our nutrition chart. Also i did some defoliation, they are too bushy. Plants are already blooming and started to form flowers LIGHT Still 20hrs, lamp is 50-70% Distance 20-40cm

Very nice week, without any problems GROWTH The beautiful second part of blooming, When buds start to cover with trichomas and gain weight. The flowers are super fluffy, And the smell become very strong. Also they stopped stretching at the pounts 65-50cm, and now the difference between plants became distinct - i have 2 short plants, with darker and more narrow leaves, i guess theybe ready the first, cuz their flowering goes faster. And other 3 tall plants have lime green more wide leaves, and their blooming is more steady, they started tricomizing just day or 2 ago NUTRITION All the same, excluded b52, Gave fulldose of BigBud Increased PK Catching the P window TRAININGS defoliation only As i c now, this strain better grow without any trainings, cuz it creates a beautiful naturally grown canopy, with equal branches.

Hello everyone, Its our W7 , buds are getting frostier each day And i have only 1 out of 5 plants who is gonna be violet, She was the smallest in the squad And even more to say - i wanted to get rid of her at the beginning, Lucky me didnt do tgat ) Now she is the tallest, she is untrained, perfect canopy naturally grown. Otherwise those who are green - very frosty and getting fat more faster. NUTRITION : This week we caught over sault, I flushed the pots, And feed them no more that 600-650 ppm One time a week i water them manually with the following solution: Calmag 1ml/l Molassa 1 ml/l Enzimes 1ml/l Root stim by TA 1dr/l BLOOM CYCLE: AS i see now the cycle will be longer then 8weeks, its just a second week when buds are gaining weight, So lets c how long it will take to harvest th!

W 10 , the Tops are ready to be harvested And i cut them . All plants became violet/purple more or less by this time, So to summerize: - i have 4 phenos - two of them yield nicely - one of them is a heavy yielder - and other two unfortunately are very basic The smell of platsis very, very strong and pleasant But there are also some slight differences ith the odour too Next week the harvest will be completed and we can speak about the weight
