Week 6 Flower Report: Maturation in Full Swing!
🌟 Welcome to the week where the magic of maturation takes center stage! 🌟
The garden has reached a pivotal moment as the trichomes are bursting with potential. Each one a glittering universe, they are the undeniable stars of this show, taking over every surface with their frosty brilliance. ✨ Watching them evolve is like witnessing art being created in real time – it’s a reminder of the beauty and patience this craft demands.
Trichomes: The Frosty Frontier
This week, the focus is all about those frosty beauties!
• Trichomes are the key indicators of ripeness and cannabinoid production. Watching their progression from clear to cloudy to amber provides the ultimate insight into maturity.
• Currently, we’re seeing a fantastic mix of cloudy trichomes with some clear still hanging around – a perfect sign that they’re gearing up for their final push.
• Fun fact: Trichomes serve as the plant’s natural defense mechanism, protecting it from UV rays and pests while being our treasure trove for cannabinoids and terpenes.
Spectrum Tuning: The Science of Light
Light plays a major role in shaping the maturation process, and this week, we’ve dialed in the spectrum for optimal results. Here’s the breakdown:
• Whites: Running at 77% to maintain robust overall growth and trichome density.
• Deep Reds, Far Reds, and UV: Maxed out at 100% to mimic the end-of-season spectrum, signaling the plants to finish strong.
• Deep Reds: Enhance photosynthesis efficiency through the Emerson effect.
• Far Reds: Promote stretch and flowering hormone production.
• UV: Stimulates trichome production for an extra boost of frost!
We’ve also added a timing twist:
• Reds & UV start 15 minutes before whites to simulate sunrise.
• Reds & UV finish 15 minutes after whites to mimic sunset, creating a more natural light transition.
These subtle timing tricks help reduce stress while optimizing light absorption, ensuring every photon counts! 🌞
Environmental Conditions: Precision is Key
Here are the dialed-in parameters for the week:
• Temps: 26.3°C
• RH: 70.1%
• CO2: 800 ppm
• VPD: 1.03 kPa
With these numbers, the ladies are thriving in their sweet spot, absorbing nutrients efficiently while maximizing trichome development.
Lighting Power:
• Lower layer at 800 PPFD and the upper layer shining bright at 1500 PPFD. The canopy coverage is perfect for even development throughout the garden.
Nutrition: Balanced and Boosted
We’ve stuck with the tried-and-true nutrient mix this week but with some strategic adjustments:
• Removed Breaking Powder to focus on trichome maturity.
• Introduced K-Boost at 0.5 ml/L, giving the plants the potassium edge they need to pack on weight and enhance terpene production.
• Feeding solution details:
• pH: 6.2
• TDS: 755 ppm
• Temp: 20.6°C
In the Autopots, the medium stays perfectly hydrated at 100% with:
• TDS: 580 ppm
• Temp: 22.2°C
