Permanent Marker/ 🍈💨Fresca Melon

Organic_G Getting two super cuts, I'm curious to see what will come out of it

Organic_G The ladies have bounced back and recovered well. I was on vacation for two weeks, my colleague only watered them twice, and they’re growing great... so far, the pot size and the volume of 300L + seem to be working well 😎 I'm more than hyped when they're done... I think I’ll put a scrog net over them tomorrow and spread them out as much as possible before they go into flowering.

Organic_G I put the babies under a net, maybe they were still too small for that... It seems like the growth phase will take a bit longer. I ordered a humidifier and a heater from AC Infinity to maintain the VPD correctly; I'm still missing a few degrees Celsius for decent growth. Next to the 🍄‍

Organic_G VPD 1.0 DLI 20-26 PPFD: 360-500 From now on, we're going for 450-600 PPFD/26-40 DLI So far, they're growing great, HST & LST haven't bothered them at all. One is growing super compact, no idea what's up with that, the rest is fine. Living Soil is the best life With the bed, I feel like I only need to water once a week 😄 so far, they haven't even looked thirsty.

Organic_G VPD: 0.8-1.2 PPFD: 450-600 DLI: 27-45 The AC Infinity AI+ Controller has arrived. I had the T7 humidifier in use for a few days before, and with the sensor, it could regulate the VPD pretty well on its own. So far, top products. AC Infinity heater, Spiderfarmer dehumidifier, light adapter for controller control are still to come. Soon also with CO2, since I already have the sensor and the automated options for it… We still have 2 plugs to integrate the exhaust and the dehumidifier, just one more is needed for the CO2 system. I'm slowly getting the feeling that the ladies have picked up speed… before, everything was rather stunted, etc. Now the side branches are also noticeably thicker, the ladies will definitely stay in VEG for another 1-2 weeks. I'm curious about the result.

Organic_G VPD:1-1.2 / At night 0.8 PPFD: 450-600 DLI: 27-45 My setup is almost complete now, with the Hester and humidifier I was able to set the VPD and desired temperature quite accurately, but due to the constantly running exhaust, the devices had to correct each other. Controlling the exhaust makes life a lot easier 😄 Since the VPD & TEMP are on point, they are growing really fast, very high photosynthesis rate. They are starting to show slight deficiency symptoms, especially magnesium, since I’m watering with osmosis water... A proper top dressing will be prepared in the coming days to slowly get the ladies ready for flowering... Flowering is going to be intense!

Organic_G I trained them for the last time the day before yesterday before the flowering stage 🍀 They're growing like crazy with the right setup, it really makes a difference. I also got myself a self-watering system and a CO2 setup, which will be installed tomorrow. About 1 more week of veg and then it's off to flowering!

Organic_G Growing like crazy, I'm a bit afraid they're going to blow up the tent 😅😅 With plenty of light and CO2 as well as a stable constant water supply, they've made a leap in the last week that I only know from the stretch phase 💀 The next grows will likely take 50% less time 😍 The 9th VEG week is coming to an end, starting tomorrow we'll switch to a 24-hour dark phase before heading into flowering. Today I added some topdressing again, Bat Guano Dolomite Lime Alfalfa Kelp Badalt Meal I defoliated a day ago 🤣🤣 The stems have also doubled in diameter 🤨 VPD 1.1-1.2 28-29 C 72% rh 1100-1200 ppm CO2 600-800 ppfd

Organic_G It's official, the ladies are going to blow up my tent 😂💀 I didn't expect such an explosive jump in the first week 😭 I set up a second net to stabilize the stems later in flowering, two days ago 😳 I'll get a third one, and if they get too high, I'll have to weave them into the net. Otherwise, I got a Migro Aray Intra 160W for the under canopy, I'm excited to see how it turns out 🤩 But they are drinking like crazy, I filled the 47 L tank two days ago & now the tank looks like this 😭 [ Image ] It's just insane!

Organic_G Luckily, they stopped stretching since day 10, and I've also added the Under Cannopy… Perfect stretch, I'm excited for the buds 💪🏽

Organic_G They look very nice and healthy. The stretch was really intense, and now they are completely in the flowering stage. The focus in weeks 1-6 of flowering is on biomass, then the temperature and light intensity will be gradually reduced. I hung in 2x UVB tubes, providing 2-3 hours a day so far without noticeable change... it will definitely be increased steadily. I defoliated 2x, and I might defoliate some more for light penetration. Maybe some sidelights will be added. I also had a lot of trouble keeping the RH in the right range since the bed was getting too much water; I haven't watered for 3 days and just let the water be consumed.

Organic_G I may have overdone it a bit with the liquid fertilizer, thought it was a potassium deficiency, but it was actually a slight burn and then I burned the babies even more 😅 oh well, it happens, you learn, and it gets better 😎 Otherwise, the plants are on day 28 of flowering and at the beginning of the 5th week of bloom. Parameters are stable so far, 28 degrees daytime temp 60-62% RH VPD 1.5 - 1.7 I don't think further fertilization will be necessary. Topdressing has also been added. I think they are quite advanced for just 4 weeks of flowering 😍 Buds are nice and firm, all very rich in trichomes, even the fan leaves carry exceptionally large amounts of resin… I don't know if it's the genetics or if the UVB lamp is doing its job. It's on for 5 hours daily, might increase the duration again, it definitely doesn't bother the plants… (310 nm peak but also 285 nm included) The smell is fruity sweet tropical, hoping for a further complex development of the terpene profile and for significant replenishment in the lower levels…

Organic_G Flowering week 5 came to an end / Day 34 The volume of the buds is limited, which might also be related to the UVB, but the quality of the buds is 11/10, super delicious scent, rock-hard buds, and what stands out is that the terpene profile varies greatly. The upper buds, which are almost maximally ripe, have a slightly degrading terpene profile. The buds with the highest UV exposure and light exposure have a stronger wood chip smell, while the lower buds still have that permanent marker scent... interesting to get different terpene profiles from the same pheno type...

Organic_G Harvest is pretty close, I’m going to split the harvest into 3 parts so the middle and lower sections can finish ripening… Since I can't really lower the humidity and don’t want to risk mold, I will most likely harvest the top third tomorrow and hang it up to dry right away… Time will tell

Organic_G These are also coming to an end slowly. Tomorrow, everything above the upper net will be harvested and hung to dry in my DIY Cannatrol. So far, it's a great thing. The buds in the CT are pretty much dried enough for the Grovebags and will be trimmed accordingly tomorrow before going into curing. Everything below the upper net will be washed first and then processed into Piatella or Live Rosin.
