King Louis Auto

Ramires Tag 8: She handled the move to the tent well. A bit leggy, but not too much. I added some soil to the fabric pot to give her a more stable hold. Besides some Calmag and the regular slow-release fertilizer mixed with the soil, I'm not adding anything else. I'm a bit curious to see how she'll do with the upcoming temperatures of 30°C+. I already opened all the windows and a door to prevent a sauna-like climate.

Ramires Tag 15: The "King" has made it through the first week well and seems to be feeling quite comfortable. Luckily, we haven't seen any signs of pests or snails. We won't be doing any further training with her, aside from LST.

Ramires Day 21: She has grown a solid 22 cm in the last week. Apparently, she feels quite comfortable under the conditions; I think there's also a bit of stretching going on since the internode distances are a bit larger. But whatever, the stem is definitely firm and stable. She's now also getting a light PK 13-14 addition to the watering, as she's going into flowering soon. Otherwise, she can grow as she pleases. Day 23: Today got a bit hectic, as I discovered spider mites on my outdoor plants. All the plants immediately got a neem oil shower. Additionally, I've ordered predatory mites that will be added to the plants. Day 24: I just noticed today that she's in pre-flowering. Time to make an appointment with the optician. 😎

Ramires Day 28: She has literally exploded and has grown 30 cm in a week. The flower sites are clearly visible. She does look a bit leggy, but otherwise, she seems healthy. Luckily, the temperatures are going down a bit again. Yesterday, we released predatory mites against thrips, fungus gnats, and whiteflies on all the plants in the greenhouse and grow tents.

Ramires Tag 35: Es sind so gut wie keine Spinnmilben zu sehen, die Raubmilben haben ordentlich weg gesnackt. Bie Buds entwickeln sich sehr schön, ein leichter Duft können wir wahrnehmen, aber noch nicht wirklich bestimmen.

Ramires Tag 42: She's put on a massive stretch and is now 89 cm tall. The buds are getting bigger too. I'm trying out the Max Flower Booster from Zamnesia on her to see if it's any good. Pest infestation is thankfully no longer an issue; she's completely clean. It's halftime for her now, and I'm really curious to see how she develops further.

Ramires Tag 49: The height growth / stretch is over, she hasn't grown another cm. Instead, she's redirecting her energy into flower formation, which is a sight for the grower's eyes 😁. In terms of appearance, she has handled the high temperatures better than the Special Queen. Her buds are currently noticeably firmer. According to the description, she should be ready for harvest in 2 - 3 weeks, but I don't see that yet. Well, you know how descriptions can be. Otherwise, she looks healthy, with no signs of deficiency, pest infestation, or mold. So she can keep surprising me daily 😎 Tag 54: Today while watering, we noticed pollen sacs at her nodes and removed them immediately. We will now check her every 2 days for more, so that the hermaphroditism doesn't lead to open flowers. Fortunately, the trichomes are almost all cloudy, just a few amber ones are missing. Hopefully, no pollination has occurred yet. This is the second plant from the greenhouse that has shown hermaphroditism. With the other one, we didn't notice it at all, and the pollen sacs were already open. We assume that the buds were pollinated. She's now hanging to dry in the basement, possibly some bubble hash will be made from it.

Ramires Tag 56: After searching for about half an hour, we couldn't find any more nanners. Hopefully, it stays that way for the next two weeks, then it should be ready for harvest. Otherwise, it looks good; it's putting a lot of power into the flower production, which has become noticeably larger and plumper. A slight spicy forest/mushroom aroma has definitely stuck to my hands. The smell could become interesting, hopefully also with the vape.

Ramires Tag 63: This morning we decided to move the King Louis and the Godfeather OG back indoors. It's been raining on and off for the last 3 days, sometimes heavily. The humidity is constantly above 90%. Even though both were in a plastic tunnel, the humidity is too critical for us. The King will likely be ready for harvest in a week. The trichomes are about 80% milky, but only a few are amber. We're really excited about the growth and the still swelling buds, and in 2 - 3 days we will also stop using the Calmag and PK nutrients.
