Renata (GHS Holy Punch)

Phoenix742 2020.03.26: 💪 Start. Soaking the nuts overnight in water, in the morning into cotton pads and a ziplock. Holy Punch (Renata) and Amherst Sour Diesel (Zemfira). 2020.03.28: Checked the pads, both seeds showed good roots, Renata about 1 cm. When removing from the zip, the tip of the root broke off. Planting in soil. Container - grow bag 20 L. Soil - peat-based substrate Hera 3D Active Universal for flowers + Perlite 70/30. Drainage ~5 cm of Perlite. Before planting, the bags were soaked with clean water (ppm 7 ph 7) 30 L. We will use this same water for watering and humidifying in the box, water quality is stable. Source - water machine. After soaking, we didn't measure ppm, which affected the further development of the plants, rookie mistake. Due to inexperience, I made such weak drainage and later realized the mistake - it needed to be much higher, as water remains above the drainage level in the tray. I fixed it by placing foam blocks under the bags, raising the bag above the tray by about 6 cm, did this in week 4. 2020.03.29: Sprouts appeared at midnight! 😸 Renata wore a helmet on the cotyledons for a while (they opened right after surfacing), later helped her shed it. 2020.04.01: Increased the light on the dimmer, raised the lamps 32 cm from the top.

Phoenix742 2020.04.05 Renata is showing abnormal leaf shape, I suspect pH issues, but the measuring device is currently unavailable; 2020.04.09 Yellow spots have appeared, the leaves are starting to curl; 2020.04.10 l-23.00-l Measured the TDS of the drainage: watered 2 liters of pure water [input 7.0 pH 7 ppm / output ~6 pH 2370 ppm]; 2020.04.11 l-17.30-l I flushed the substrate to get rid of the salinity: ~30 liters of pure water [input 7.0 pH 7 ppm / output 150 ppm];

Phoenix742 2020.04.12 The plants are recovering after the anti-salt flush, young shoots are resuming growth; 2020.04.14 Watering with clean water; Waiting for the delivery of fertilizers and pH meter, watering with water;

Phoenix742 2020.04.20 received the pH meter and nutrients, starting feeding from the next day; 2020.04.21 l-18.50-l watering 2 L Water + Terra Vega + Molasses (25% of the recommended dose) [input 6.6 pH 240 ppm / output 6.6 pH 268 ppm]; 2020.04.22 l-18.30-l watering 2 L Water + Terra Vega + Molasses + Bento (50% of the recommended dose) [input 6.6 pH 394 ppm / output 6.7 pH 142 ppm]; 2020.04.23 l-12.50-l on leaves 200 ml Water + Fito Power 0.05 ml; 2020.04.23 l-17.30-l watering 2 L Water + Terra Vega + Molasses + Bento (recommended dose) [input 6.5 pH 986 ppm / output 7.0 pH 173 ppm]; 2020.04.24 l-12.50-l on leaves 200 ml Water + Salibor 0.6 g + Budzilla 0.8 ml; 2020.04.25 plants show signs of overwatering, stopping watering for a while;

Phoenix742 2020.04.27 l-03:30-l watering 0.5 l of water + 1 drop of hb101 + 2 drops of zircon; The plant shows symptoms of phosphorus overdose and who knows what else. PPM/pH readings are within the norm. We're pausing the feeding for a while and giving pure water until signs of healthy growth appear. This might be how stress from the sudden start of feeding manifests; 2020.04.27 l-20:30-l watering 2 l of water [input 7.0 pH 7 ppm / output 7.1 pH 125 ppm]; finally added a fan to the box! 👋 2020.05.01 l-00:30-l cleaning in the box; defoliation - removed dried cotyledons, leaves from the first and second levels; 2020.05.01 l-01:00-l watering 2.5 l of water [input 7.0 pH 7 ppm / output 7.1 pH 144 ppm]; 2020.05.02 l-01:30-l 🙀 The hour X has come! After assessing the condition of the plants, we decided to trim to the third node using the main-lining technique. Renata was previously relieved of the fan leaves from the third level, and now has only kept the young side branches at the third node. They were slightly affected by the earlier fertilizer overdose, but now look quite symmetrical and vigorous, plus they've noticeably grown over the last few days. We're keeping our fingers crossed for them, let the little ones recover from the stress and grow! ✊ All shoots below the third tier were removed. The cut top part of the plant was placed in water in hopes of growing a little clone. 😸 Lights at full power, 30 cm from the tops; 2020.05.02 l-18:30-l watering 1 l Water + Terra Vega 1 ml + Bento 7 ml + Molasses 1.7 ml [input 6.6 pH 317 ppm]; 2020.05.02 l-20:30-l watering 1 l Water + Terra Vega 1 ml + Bento 7 ml + Molasses 1.7 ml [input 6.6 pH 317 ppm / output 6.9 pH 154 ppm];

Phoenix742 2020.05.03 Renata is growing vigorously, the branches are developing symmetrically, but the cut still hasn't healed and is secreting a whitish liquid; 2020.05.03 l-23.30-l watering Water 0.8 l; 2020.05.04 got a roll of copper wire, wrapped pieces of wire in electrical tape and made anchors with rubber bands for LST, bent and secured the branches; slightly reduced the power and raised the lights to 35 cm from the top, as the leaves started to get burned; 2020.05.06 l-01:30-l trimmed the stubs from the previous trimming on the lower internodes. bent and secured new shoots a bit lower; removed the lower leaves on the first internode after the hub, they were quite damaged; looks a bit dry, might need to increase the watering frequency. spots indicate a nutrient deficiency, will increase the solution concentration; 2020.05.06 l-02:30-l watering 1.8 l Water + Terra Vega 3.6 ml + Bento 24 ml + HB 101 1 drop [in 6.5 ph 560 ppm/ out 7.1 hp 172 ppm]; manicured the clones - trimmed the tips of the leaves and lower tiers to speed up root formation; 2020.05.07 l-21:30-l watering 1.8 l Water; 2020.05.09 l-21:00-l watering 2 + 0.5 l Water + Terra Vega 6 ml + Bento 10 ml + Molasses 10 ml [in 6.4 ph 960 ppm/ out 6.9 ph 265 ppm] (drainage didn't come out, added pure water); bought distilled water, calibrated the ph-meter with calibration solution, not bottled water with "known ph" (which, by the way, turned out to be 7.4 instead of the stated 7.5);

Phoenix742 2020.05.10 l-13.30-l on the leaf 200 ml Water + 0.3 g Salibor + 0.4 ml Budzilla (100 ml per plant); Renata has already left four healthy floors on both sides, and the fifth is on the way. On the third level, the symmetrical buds are a delight to the eye and indicate that the second stage of mainlining will be happening soon. Let it grow! 😎 2020.05.11 l-14.30-l on the leaf 200 ml Water + 0.4 ml Bud Monster + 0.2 ml Diamond Armor; 2020.05.14 l-19.30-l Second stage of mainlining. Watering 2l Water + 6 ml Terra Vega + 10 ml Molasses + 20ml Benta [input 960 ppm, 6.6 ph; output not measured - drainage did not come out]; 2020.05.15 l-19.40-l 1+1+1 l Water [input 7.0 ph 7 ppm; output 8.3 ph 330 ppm] I'm transferring the record-keeping to Telegram - it's easier to work on a daily basis. Here, I'll probably post with a delay - once every week or two.
