AlpAge_Cino 2025/03/24 : 10s in sandpaper tube, then 2h in X-seed and in easy-plug watered with trikologic (1g/L).
Expanded clay are in pH 5.5 for 3 days, allmost ready.
I'll set up cultimate S with first nutritive solution a few days too.
2025/03/27 : TC popped out!
2025/03/28 : As tap root is out of easy-plug, I'll give easy-pyramid mini a try (1.2L). I watered it with Terra Aquatica "first roots" schedule and will let it enroot under SF300. I finished Cultimate S setup and figured I need more expanded clay so, back in 5.5 pHed water... I prepared "first true leaves" solution to check if pH stays OK for a few days in active cultimate.
2025/03/30 : nothing special

AlpAge_Cino 2025/04/07: I'm waiting to see first true leaves with 5 digits formed to settle TC in cultimate system.
Still with "firt roots" schedule for the moment: it seems it works well as I can see roots outside mini pyramid now.
Height is 10.5 cm and DLI is set to 17.

AlpAge_Cino 2025/04/13: it's time to go to cultimate!
DLI=20 as seedling stage is done and feeding is now "first true leaves".
I let it grow 5 nodes before topping.

AlpAge_Cino 2025/04/21: still on "first true leaves" nutrition, just had to adjust pH from 6.9 to 5.8 and EC up from 0.9 to 1.1. DLI is now 30 and I topped sixth node. Let's fill scrog net!
2025/04/24: removed all fan leaves except top ones, waiting for upper node to grow a bit. Thinking about maintenance on cultimate, scrog won't be an option : I'll do LST. To celebrate first month, I changed feeding solution for "grow" (pH = 5.6 - EC = 1140 µS/cm - T = 19.8°C).
2025/04/26: removed top fan leaves and reset LST. pH was 6.2, reset to 5.6.

AlpAge_Cino 2025/04/30: I removed 5th node and lollipopped all of 8 branches. I set DLI to 39 wih lamp @45cm. LST is almost done. I'm waiting a few days for TC to recover then preflowering. pH still correct with 5.7
2025/05/02: I started preflowering with 25 DLI 12h/day and flush with "preflo" solution.

AlpAge_Cino 2025/05/05: defoliation, maybe last one, before stretch. I reset LST to shape TC as I wish.
2025/05/08: impressive growth and more than 5L drunk after 3 days! Still no pistils.
2025/05/09: removed all non essential leaves and redo 5L solution. DLI=28

AlpAge_Cino 2025/05/15: TC recovered from defoliation and pistils are coming. Let's call it first flowering week!
I changed food to "flowering" program.
I had to use HST to keep TC under 30cm but still have 5cm more if needed.
There are head sites everywhere.😊

AlpAge_Cino 2025/05/19: I removed a few fans on top, broke a branch here and there and reset scrog net to stay under 35 cm. I hope training is done now.
There are a lot of flowers!
TC drank 5L last 4 days, so I had to fill up the tank.
Still with 30 DLI and terra aquatica "flowering" feed.
The trio TA cultimate+TA tripart+FB FF is just amazing...😲
2025/05/22: DLI=34. reset scrog
2025/05/24: another 10L "flowering" solution. reset scrog and removed few fans.
I'll remove all lowest buds next week.

AlpAge_Cino 2025/06/02: TC stretched like crazy last 2 weeks... I had to move it to 70*70*160 flowering space : it's beautiful and smell is present.
DLI is now 36 and fan leaves temp about 26°C under FC-E 3000.
And it drinks 10L every 5 days!

AlpAge_Cino 2025/06/07 : another flowering week without problem...
Had to change carbon filter to hide smell.
I removed every single trichrome free fan leave to expose lower buds.
TC trichromes production is something!

AlpAge_Cino 2025/06/14 : last week before maturing, so DLI=40.
Buds are getting fatter and there are trichromes everywhere!
TC seems to be a serious producer...😁
