Orangette 24.2

MisterZ Hello friends, I'm starting a new diary. I chose this sticky orange xxl auto for its promising characteristics https://sensiseeds.com/fr/research/sticky-orange-xxl-autofloraison. There are quite a few diaries, so it's hard to get an idea in advance. I refurbished and cleaned my growing space - the closet at the back of my garage, and especially installed a new Sanlight evo 3-60 LED equipped with a dimmer. For monitoring, I calibrated the light sensor to identify and display the dimmer level in Grafana 100%, 80%... 2024-02-01 a seed in a glass of water until it sinks then immediately into a 20l fabric pot covered with a half plastic bottle 2024-02-03 germination 2024-02-04 visible seedling Who knows this situational song https://youtu.be/fXP6d97phfQ?si=prYJRoCt80GgJSn6 Here we go!

MisterZ Hello farmer friends This week the growth is quite fast. However, it seems a bit yellow to me. The LED is at 70%. For now, it is nicely symmetrical before I torture it. Watering 2024-02-09 300 ml 2024-02-14 300 ml See you soon, M.

MisterZ Hello friends, Since I have to be away soon, I anticipated the LST. I started on the 20th day! It's early, but after 2 days the lower branches are reaching for the light. The development is quite rapid and the plant is in good shape. For now, everything is going well. It looks like a green salad. Watering about every 5 days with 1/2 liter. I also moved the plant to put it in the closet of my garage where it's a bit cooler. It's now under the Sanlight LED that I set to 60%. With what my smartphone sensor is worth, the Photone app indicates DLI 35, which seems suitable for 3 weeks. For now, the monitoring is partial; I have some soldering to redo and the history is limited after truncating the sensor reading table. See you soon, M.

MisterZ Hello friends, The temperatures have dropped in my closet: 15°C during the 2 hours of night and 19°C during the day. Growth is slowed down. The plant is doing quite well though, but it will stay small. The VPD "pulls" less on transpiration, the soil moisture decreases more slowly, and I water about every 6 days. That's all. See you soon. M.

MisterZ Hello friends, Back after two weeks, I added a small 450w oil-filled heater based on @nonick123's recommendations. I set the thermostat to a minimum of 18°C. After a few minutes, the temperature stabilizes around 20° for an hour. It really has excellent inertia. This plant has been in the cold for a long time before, so it stayed small. It’s forming many little well-exposed buds. If my phone's sensor is reliable, the LED at 60% seems sufficient. 2024-03-18 2l 2024-03-22 2l See you soon, M & MisterZ.

MisterZ Hello friends, Since this week, the temperatures in my closet no longer drop below 18.5°C thanks to the heating. Visually, the stretch has resumed, it's amazing. The plant is doing quite well. I replaced the camera with a Sony PS Eye USB that has autofocus. Much easier to integrate. 2024-03-26 watering 3 See you soon, M & MisterZ

MisterZ Hello grower friends, This time the stretch is definitely over. This plant is going to stay very short. The smell is noticeably stronger. The buds are thickening up. 2024-04-03: 2 liters of watering At the next watering, I will start the flushing. M & MisterZ

MisterZ Good evening, grower friends, It's almost the end. The buds are very firm. The resin is half transparent and half white. A lot of leaves are drying out. I think I'll harvest sometime next week. 2024-04-07 2 liters with nutrients 2024-04-12 2 liters without nutrients See you soon, M & MisterZ

MisterZ Hello ganja grower friends, This week the temperatures are dropping. The heating is working well. The harvest is imminent, it's almost over 😉. I’ve freed the plant from its ties and supervision. 2024-04-17 3 liters without nutrients See you soon, M.

MisterZ Hello friends, Well, it's done. It's a bit like an adventure coming to an end. From seed to harvest, exactly 84 days and 190 g to dry, that's a good result for me. I'm going to try to find that orange flavor. There are a lot of small leaves that I'm going to collect to make Marrakech butter. Thanks to @nonick123 and @dolfom for their good advice. This whole community helps us improve but also to exchange and discover a lot of things, and that's really great. Thanks to everyone. M.
