Oyziphar I started this diary some weeks ago, but I didn't have the time to start sharing it on Growdiaries.
But now I've got the time and therefore I'll share multiple weeks at once, until I'm back on track.
I started this weeks diary with making the clones. I took 28 clones of four different strains, but at the end I'll keep only 8 plants.
I'm going to put these plants in a greenhouse, starting from half march, when the daylength is still short enough to start them flowering automatically. After 4 weeks I'l put the plants indoor to bloom for another 4 weeks aprox. This is an experiment to use the short daylength of the spring, combined with the indoor warmth and 12/12 regime. Let's hope for a good result.

Oyziphar I keep the plants in the small pots, because I want to keep them small, because I don't have the space to give them a bigger pot.
I also top and defoliate the plants to keep them small.

Oyziphar DAY77
๐ Like last week, we had many beautiful spring days with sun ๐ and warm temperatures๐ก๏ธ
๐ The plants stood outside throughout the day. During the night I then put them inside in the growing tent under artificial light๐
๐ I took a few clones to preserve the strains. because I will probably start flowering the (mother)plants next week ๐๐

Oyziphar ๐บ I transplanted the plants from 5 liter pots to 25 liter pots.
๐บ I used mostly soil from a previous growth, enriched with fresh light-mix, Biovin, Flower Safer (mycorrhiza), Trichoderma Harzianum from the Dutch firm "Plant Health Solutions" (bioplantenvoeding.nl). I placed 4 of their growtablets (21 gr) on the bottom of the pots.
๐บ It is the month of March. The day length is around 12 hours. Now that I have repotted the plants to heavy pots, they are too heavy to put them under artificial light at night. I will therefore leave them in the Greenhouse at night. The short nights will trigger them to start making flowers.

๐It's the end of March, and daylength is 12,5 hours. Therefore the plants will keep flowering for some time๐๐ But soon the daylength will be too long ๐ Then I'll move the plants inside growroom with 12 hours of artificial light, in order to keep the flowering process going ๐ผ๐ผ๐ผ

Oyziphar โ I harvested my previous grow, so there's room in my growroom now. That's why I moved my 8 ladies inside.
The plants will never see the sun ๐ again ๐ญ
โ The last weeks of flowering will be in the growroom. I noticed that the plants have a hard time adjusting to the artificial light in the growing room ๐ฎ The leaves turned deep dark green in colour๐ฟ The white pistils turned brown, and slowly new pistils are appearing. The plants also show signs of fertilizer burn ๐ฑ especially the Wedding Gelato โ ๏ธThis has been a hard week for the ladies. ๐

โก๏ธThe Liberty Haze can continue for a while.
๐๐ป
I'm going to try to let them all blossom for as long as possible ๐๐๐
I've gone a different way. I've got a tent and lights in the my greenhouse to keep them in veg and I will flower them at the end of May, with the strongest sun, to help the plants do their best. Good Luck.
@Chucky324, Good luck with your flowering in May and June. Definitely strong sun then ๐ Great to hear that there are more growers playing with the light โ Too bad you can't combine sunlight and artificial light in one diary here on Growdiaries ๐
@Oyziphar, When I started the diary they now ask about the how many watts used... I put down a The Sun... 1 billion...
Funny thing too... I can't get my tent in the outdoor diaries either.
Just courious... You've been here a while... What is your favorite indica?... What's your favorite sativa?
