Black Beretta - Cipher Genetics

PapaTerps Black Beretta - Cipher Genetics Day 1 🚿 Watered every three days with 0.5L of RO water, with nutrients mixed individually and in order, finally I ph'd the solution to 6.3👌🏻 ✂️ I've transplanted her from her starter pot, into a 10L fabric pot. 👍🏻 🌱 Week 1 of Veg, and shes working on growing her leaves and strengthening her stem 💪🏻

PapaTerps Black Beretta - Cipher Genetics Day 9 🚿 Watered every three days with 1L of RO water, with nutrients mixed individually and in order, finally I ph'd the solution to 6.3. I have upped some of her nutrients as she will need it during this phase 👌🏻 ✂️ I've removed two of her top most fan leaves to improve light penetration to the lower nodes, this will encourage lower stem growth. 🌱 Week 2 of Veg, and shes working on stretching, strengthening her main stem as well as producing lower side stems 💪🏻

PapaTerps Black Beretta - Cipher Genetics Day 17 🚿 Watered every three days with 1L of RO water, with nutrients mixed individually and in order, finally I ph'd the solution to 6.3. I've upped her root nutrients to help with her root development and as of next week, I will replace the FishMix with the BioGrow 👍🏻 ✂️ I've removed a couple of her fan leaves to improve airflow and light penetration, I've also topped her main stem to allow the lower stems to grow up and form a consistent canopy 💪🏻 🌱 Week 3 of Veg, she recovered from her first topping and has started to grow out her lower stems and supporting fan leaves! She has grown really well so far and looks to be bang on schedule for the 12/12 switch in about 4 weeks 🏻

PapaTerps Black Beretta - Cipher Genetics Day 26 🚿 Watered every four days with 2L of RO water, with nutrients mixed individually and in order, finally I ph'd the solution to 6.3. No alterations to her feeding. ✂️ This week I've lollipopped her to improve airflow and to encourage her to grow up, but other than that, she's just growing! 🌱 Week 4 of Veg, and she's been working on stretching and developing her stems! She's grown a lot in the last week, so I have high hopes for her! I've moved her into a 5x5 tent now along with all of the other plants in this grow, I will also be setting up a drip feed system from next week to streamline the feeding process 👌🏻

PapaTerps Black Beretta - Cipher Genetics Day 35 💡 PPFD: 540 ♒VPD: 0.98kPa 🚿 Watered every four days with 3L of RO water, with nutrients mixed individually, in order and then finally, I ph'd the solution to 6.3. I've reduced her root nutrient as she no longer requires it and increased her CalMag because some of the plants were showing signs of magnesium deficiency. From next feeding, I will start to introduce her bloom nutrients. ✂️ I've given her a good defoliation and I've lollipopped her up to about the fourth node from the canopy. I've introduced a few training clips to help her grow more evenly. She's physically ready for the switch, but I think another week will help her big time! So from now on, I'll remove as much stresses as I can and just let her grow🏻 🌱 Week 5 of Veg, shes strong and sturdy and looks ready to hold any weight of flower! she's also showing all the signs that suggest she has reached maturity and looks robust enough to begin the 12/12 switch. Another week to go, but she's ready 🙌🏻

PapaTerps Black Beretta - Cipher Genetics Week 1 of Bloom 🌸 She has reached maturity, has big strong stems, a nice even canopy with no signs of deficiencies or illnesses - so she is ready for the 12-12 switch. I gradually reduced her light schedule over the last five days of veg, until she hit the 12 hour schedule a couple of days ago, so today is her fourth day "in bloom", and she has filled out her canopy and has already started her stretch! It has been a couple of days since her last watering here, so she looks a bit weak, but don't worry, she had another feeding right after these pics were taken. ✂️ No work on her this week, I don't usually defoliate or train my girls during the first and second week of bloom because I want to reduce as much stress as possible. 🚿 Watered every three days this week, with 3L of RO water, with nutrients mixed individually, in order and then finally, I ph'd the solution to 6.3. I've switch out her veg nutrients now for bloom nutrients; these volumes will slowly be increased over the next couple of weeks depending on her needs. 💡 PPFD: ~650 ♒ VPD: 1.3kPa 🌱 Days from seed: 64 🌸 Days in Bloom: 4

PapaTerps Black Beretta - Cipher Genetics Week 2 of Bloom 🌸 She has stretched really well and has started to develop her flower! She's a little bit shorter than the rest of the girls, so we might have to raise her up a bit in the future. ✂️ No work on her this week, I tend to leave my girls alone during the first and second week of bloom. 💧 Watered every three days this week, with 2L of RO water, with nutrients mixed individually, in order and then finally, I pH'd the solution to 6.3. I've increased her bloom nutrients again, and I will continue to do that over the next few weeks to keep up with her growth requirements 👍🏼 💡 PPFD: ~690 ♒ VPD: 1.28kPa 🌱 Days from seed: 70 🌸 Days in Bloom: 11

PapaTerps Black Beretta - Cipher Genetics Week 3 of Bloom 🌸 She has completed her stretch and is developing her flower well - but while I was inspecting her, I noticed she had a couple of "pods" around her lower center budsites, where the least amount of light and airflow exists; clearly she has hermed a bit... we're only week 3 of bloom, so I'm hoping these were caused by low light stress and not by genetics, otherwise I'll have to dump this plant... I've cut away basically her entire lower section to remove any trace of nanners as well as any budsites that might have been pollinated - hopefully she will recover from this and no more herming occurs🤞🏻 ✂️ I've removed basically everything below the top three-four nodes, to improve light penetration and airflow, but also to remove any sections that were close to the areas where the nanners appeared. I will closely monitor her over the next few days to see if any more appear. 💧 Watered every three days with 3L of RO water - nutrients were mixed individually, in order and then finally pH'd to 6.3. I've increased her nutrients again to keep up with her growth/demand. 💡 PPFD: ~700 ♒ VPD: 1.18kPa 🌱 Days from seed: 77 🌸 Days in Bloom: 18 🔍Herm Check: I will check her daily for nanners and other related issues like pollination etc... I will go through each individual bud site checking for nanners, pollen sacs and discolouration of the flower/pistils, as well as the usual checks for mould and deasese. * 31/09 - full defoliation of the lower leaves and budsites, all pollen sacs and nanners removed. * 01/09 - nothing found today, at least nothing is visible just yet! * 02/09 - she looks good, her flower looks to have bulked up; I think I might have caught it just on time🤞🏻 * 03/09 - all good today, no more pollen sacs have appeared and all surrounding plants look fine. * 04/09 - no signs of pollination or new pollen sacs. * 05/09 - no signs of pollination or new pollen sacs.

PapaTerps Black Beretta - Cipher Genetics Week 4 Bloom 🌸 She's looked to have turned a corner after last weeks escapades and is working hard on developing her flower, so I seem to have caught the pollen sacs before they did any damage! She is now focusing all her energy upwards towards the top of the canopy, and that is evident by how big her flower has grow over the last few days! She looks so healthy and her smell is only making me regret not putting her in a bigger pot; Berry's and Gas 👌🏻. All the girls have been moved into the Spider Farmer 8x4, because the 5x5 and 4x2 were too difficult to manage 👍🏻 ✂️ No work this week, I took a lot off her last week so she doesn't need anything. 💧 Watered every three days with 4L of RO water - nutrients were mixed individually, in order and then finally pH'd to 6.3. I've increased her nutrients again to keep up with her flower production. 💡 PPFD: ~700 ♒ VPD: 1.48kPa 🌱 Days from seed: 85 🌸 Days in Bloom: 26

PapaTerps Black Beretta - Cipher Genetics Week 5 Bloom 🌸 Great week for her, she has bulked up a huge amount and is absolutely covered in trichomes - she hasn't grown any pollen sacs since the first week in flower so I'm confident we got away with that 👍🏻 Her flower is beautiful and has already started to show signs of maturity, with many of her pistils starting to turn - she might also finish in 8-9 weeks 🙌🏻 Her scent is blackberries with a sweet finish, and it has a punch, one of the strongest smells in the tent! ✂️ No work this week, she hasn't shown any more herming and she has great airflow and light penetration 👌🏻 💧 Watered every three days with 4L of RO water - nutrients were mixed individually, in order and then finally pH'd to 6.3. I've increased her nutrients again to keep up with her flower production. 💡 PPFD: ~900 ♒ VPD: 1.53kPa 🌱 Days from seed: 95 🌸 Days in Bloom: 34
