White widow y zinfandel. Principiante, primer cultivo

FarithAriasFajardo These photos belong to days 8 to 11 where we can already see good development in the white widow and the zinfandel is ready for its pot, both with a light schedule of 19-20 hours and the same germination method. So far, everything is going very well.

FarithAriasFajardo 3 days later. We started with the first application of nutrients for the white widow, adding these two products that are beneficial for the plant at this stage, next to her is the zinfandel which looks very vigorous in its pot. For now, I'm only using the full spectrum panel since I've seen good compact development in the white widow and both are responding very well.

FarithAriasFajardo Days 16, 19, and 21 of development for both plants. For the white widow, we started week 3, and for the zinfandel, we just started week 2. In white widow, we made the first application of top veg along with an aerated mix using a fish tank pump, homemade molasses, and humicampo 26, and for zinfandel, the first application of top deeper with the same aerated mix. So far, the plants look very healthy, and there are no signs of over-fertilization or nutrient deficiency in the soil. As of April 21, the white widow is 17 days old since moving from the germination method to substrate, and the zinfandel is 10 days old with the same germination to substrate method. Considering they have only been alive for a few days, both plants show good signs. They look compact!

FarithAriasFajardo Here are the photos from this new week of vegetation for both plants, with the white widow being 23 days old and the zinfandel 16. The photos correspond to April 21, 24, and 27. For now, there's nothing else to add. This week I only added some substrate to both and the watering was with rested water using a pump providing oxygen for 24 hours and a pH of 6.1 to 6.5. What I don't know is whether to do some kind of pruning later or if I should just let them grow as they are, since I don't know much. I'm afraid of damaging them or stressing them too much. I'll think about it, and I'm open to any advice or observations about them!

FarithAriasFajardo The record corresponds to the days April 28, 30, and May 2, 3, 4. After performing an apical cut and some LST along with light defoliation. So far, the plants are doing very well, growing beautifully and strong. Trying to manage everything in the best way, I was able to adjust the setup where I have my plants and I'm getting more and more happy with these results! Today, the White Widow IBL is 30 days old since germination and the Zinfandel is 23.

FarithAriasFajardo Dump of what this week was. We keep adjusting the structure I want with LST and we started the transition to flowering. This week will be the last of vegetative where we will try to take clones from both. Since I've been watching videos and gathering information on how to do it, I think I have an idea of how to do it without mistakes. Next week, we'll see ourselves making these clones and we'll check the progress of this last week. Remember that I'm doing everything empirically and without prior knowledge. Everything has been supported by videos from other growers and information from different pages. Thanks for being here and sharing this first experience with me!

FarithAriasFajardo Well, that's how we finished the vegetative phase. We made some mistakes, but they could be fixed. Learning a lot every day and improving so that this new stage is very fruitful. Very happy with what we've achieved and how the babies look so far. Next week, flowering. We're going all in for this next stage, excited to see how they stretch and their pistils come out. See you next week for what will be the first week of flower for these babies!

FarithAriasFajardo Last week of vegetative or better said, pre-flowering week for both, very happy with the results obtained so far. Both plants have been very strong and have withstood the LST and some high temperatures. Very pretty and very grateful for both genetics that have shown. On one side, Zinfandel with its sativa part that is noticeable in its leaves and new shoots. The White Widow is more indica clearly due to its structure. Both already showing clear signs of being females with some tiny pistils. We are starting the most important stage for these babies. Let's give a lot of love to this stage and hope everything goes well for a great harvest!

FarithAriasFajardo Well, that's how we wrap up this first week of flowering. Very happy with both plants. Very strong. Loaded with new lessons and increasingly anxious to reach the harvest. Although there's still half the process left and it's partly the most difficult due to humidity since it's been raining a lot in my city and I've had nighttime peaks of 85%, although it's somewhat normal since these first two weeks with the low cuts and small size that won't produce anything, they transpire a bit more. Let's hope this week levels out a bit or in the end, I'll have to get a dehumidifier for the last weeks and well, nothing else to add. Thanks for sticking around, we'll see you next week before starting to bulk up these buds!

FarithAriasFajardo So we wrap up this week of active flowering, full of pistils and showing signs that there will be plenty of snow!! You can already see the amount of trichomes coming out on the white widow. Although the zinfandel is not far behind. Quite sticky and a very pronounced smell that one couldn't quite distinguish between gas and something creamy. Very happy with these genetics that are currently thriving in flowering. If everything stays like this in week 4, we can start fattening up these buds.

FarithAriasFajardo You can already feel the anxiety about how they will look on harvest day. Very happy with the structure of both plants. So far, zero problems with humidity and temperature, which have been a bit high for this stage. Let's hope that later on it won't be a problem and I can manage it. In the coming days, I'll start giving them some nutrients and will be very alert to how they're assimilating this. I'll also add the bulbs that accompanied them during the vegetative stage to reinforce the panel and give a boost during these weeks of flowering!

FarithAriasFajardo Everything looks great here so far, we've already started the fattening phase. Let's see how they respond next week when I increase the doses. I'm very happy with the results so far. It's definitely worth dedicating time and being patient with the process. I'm sure next week I'll start other diaries with a hunt involving some regulars, an autoflowering, and another feminized along with a clone of this white widow that I was able to make.

FarithAriasFajardo This week, the smells from both plants have been quite strong, especially at night when the lights go off. The whole room, or rather the apartment, gets flooded with the scent of both, considering they're in a closed room and in a closet. I'm very happy with what I've achieved so far with them and looking forward to these last weeks to see how big they'll get.

FarithAriasFajardo We finished week 6 very proud of everything I've achieved and learned during these months. I'm so grateful to all the people who share their knowledge. I'm starting a new cycle and very soon I'll be entering flowering again with an autoflowering and a happy lora from blacktuna that has been in vegetative for a month, I've worked with LST again and it will soon have its first important trim.

FarithAriasFajardo Almost there ✂️ let's see if we can get it this week or if we need to give it another week for those buds to fatten up. The smells are already very pronounced in both strains. Too delicious!

FarithAriasFajardo This reference is good for getting two or four plants to flowering.

FarithAriasFajardo Very good.
