Red Hot Cookies - Organic

Hey! I'm starting the new diary to take part in the Sweet Seeds Contest about 2020's news strains. - 2020/05/05: I've prepared my growing medium wich is made by: 45% LightMix by Biobizz + 40% coco by Canna + 10% perlite + 5% arlite on the bottom. - 2020/05/06: I'm using 'Easy Start' from RQS for the germination process. - 2020/05/08: After 2 days I got 4/4 seeds germinated. I'm hyped!! - 2020/05/09: I'm moving them to 'Ikea Vaxer' Hydro system. I'm only using the structure and light without the Hydro part. - 2020/05/14: They're doing right, growing as expected. It's my first time growing with organics so I'm excited to check the differences with mineral fertilizers and maybe if all goes as expected, change my regular feeding schedule.

First week - 2020/05/05: I've prepared my growing medium wich is made by: 45% LightMix by Biobizz + 40% coco by Canna + 10% perlite + 5% arlite on the bottom. - 2020/05/06: I'm using 'Easy Start' from RQS for the germination process. - 2020/05/08: After 2 days I got 4/4 seeds germinated. I'm hyped!! - 2020/05/09: I'm moving them to 'Ikea Vaxer' Hydro system. I'm only using the structure and light without the Hydro part. Second week - 2020/05/14: They're doing right, growing as expected. - 2020/05/20: I'm moving them to my grow tent ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Third week - 2020/05/21: I give them "Kraken". - 2020/05/25: I give them 2.5gr of "Bactohemp". I've sprayed them with Neem Oil + Propolis. I'm trying to compare some details while growing this strain. I will repot 2 of the Red Hot Cookies on plastic pots, one on coco and another one on soil; I will repot the other 2 plants on fabric pots, also one on coco an the other one on soil. After harvesting I will compare smell, flavor and production of each plant (this results won't be the best since I'm growing from seed and they will have less homogeneity than clones) - Kraken: Is a fertilizer made from a particular fungus, Glomus Iranicum var. Tenuihypharium, which has the ability to form mycorrhizae, making the roots of your plants grow intensely. 100% organic. - Bactohemp: Is a water-soluble powdered product based on bacilli and bacteria living in symbiosis with the plant root. The product is 100% ecological and can be used in ecological agriculture. It's made by seven groups of bacilli and bacteria + Acophyllum Nodosum algae extract.

--------------------------------Fourth week---------------------------- -2020/05/31: I am repoting them into 7L pots. During this process I'm applying mycorrhizae on the root system (after pruning them a bit). After transplanting them I sprinkle 1g/L of soil of BioGrow by GreenHouse Feeding. -2020/06/01: I'm starting to apply LST on the central stem and first defoliation. -2020/06/05: I've changed the LST direction and I've notice a big improvement on the grow of side stems. -2020/06/05: I've installed a DIY drip system as irrigation. On the next weeks I will be upgrading this to a nebulizers system. -2020/06/10: I give them again Enhancer by Greenhouse Feeding & sprayed them with Neem Oil+ Propolix. I'm freeing them from the LST. -2020/06/11: I'm defoliating them again just before putting them into 12/12 light schedule. --------------------------------Past weeks---------------------------- - 2020/05/05: I've prepared my growing medium wich is made by: 45% LightMix by Biobizz + 40% coco by Canna + 10% perlite + 5% arlite on the bottom. - 2020/05/06: I'm using 'Easy Start' from RQS for the germination process. - 2020/05/08: After 2 days I got 4/4 seeds germinated.

I've sprayed them with Neem Oil + Propolix. ---------------------------------Setup------------------------------------ Tent: Secret Jardin DR90 Lights: - 6x 50w LED COBs Citizen CLU4848 4000k CRI97 - 2 x R63 7W IP65 FAR RED - 2 x R63 7W IP65 UV-A - 1 x 15W UV-B Air Intake: 250-310 m3/h Air Outake: 280 - 360 m3/h Carbon Filter: Prima Klima 360m3/h Tent Fans: Secret Jardin Clip fan + 15w fan (only for flowering) Irrigation System: Manual + DIY Drip System (I will upgrade it to nebulization system on the next weeks) Pots: 7L Mix of plastic & texpots Phytosanitary: - Propolix - Neem Oil Fertilizers: - Greenhouse Bio Feeding (Grow+Flowering+Enhancer). - BactoHemp: Is a water-soluble powdered product based on bacilli and bacteria living in symbiosis with the plant root. The product is 100% ecological and can be used in ecological agriculture. It's made by seven groups of bacilli and bacteria + Acophyllum Nodosum algae extract. - BactoBloom: Is a water-soluble powder compound based on bacilli and bacteria living in symbiosis with the plant root; it increases plant blooming. - Kraken: Is a fertilizer made from a particular fungus, Glomus Iranicum var. Tenuihypharium, which has the ability to form mycorrhizae, making the roots of your plants grow intensely. 100% organic.

--------------------------------Fifth week---------------------------- -2020/06/18: I'm defoliating them again just before putting them into 12/12 light schedule. -2020/06/21: I'm breaking some stems to promote the growth of the secondary stems. -2020/06/22: I'm preparing a ACT (aireated compost tea). The formula that I'm using is 3% fulvic acid+ 5% humic acid+5% worms humus+10%banana skin tea+7% flowering guano + 70% osmosis water (increased EC to 450ppm with organic calcium and magnesium). Then I regulate the PH with Organic PH-- to 6.4-6.6. Then I use an air machine to introduce air. -2020/06/24: After almost 48h I add the ACT to the plants. Finally I made them the last defoliation. I'm noticing that they are growing faster using 3 min of far red while the main lights are on (just before they shutdown) and after the shutdown of the main lights using 15 min of only far red. As my master told me, you can reduce the night hours while keeping them in flowering or you just can keep the "standard light flowering schedule" and short the days neccesary for the full maduration of the fruit. PD: I've been working a lot so I've not been updating the diary as much as I would like to.

--------------------------------Sixth week---------------------------- -2020/06/30: I'm preparing an aireated compost tea again. The formula that I'm using is 3% fulvic acid+ 5% humic acid+5% worms humus+10%banana skin tea+7% flowering guano + 70% osmosis water (increased EC to 450ppm with organic calcium and magnesium). Then I regulate the PH with Organic PH-- to 6.4-6.6. Then I use an air machine to introduce air during the 36h of preparation. -2020/06/24: After almost 36h I added the ACT to the plants. -2020/07/04: I'm giving them 2ml/l of Cannazym. I'm giving them Enhancer in the water. My plant from the grow question died 2 days later. I'd applied a 6.5 PH water with some nutes but idk why she stopped taking the water and after 2-3 days she was withered with all the leaves down and the flowers were very wet and brown color. The other 3 Red Hot Cookies still look incredible. --------------------------------Past weeks---------------------------- - 2020/05/05: I've prepared my growing medium wich is made by: 45% LightMix by Biobizz + 40% coco by Canna + 10% perlite + 5% arlite on the bottom. - 2020/05/06: I'm using 'Easy Start' from RQS for the germination process. - 2020/05/08: After 2 days I got 4/4 seeds germinated.

I will update the diary with all the info in a few hours. Sorry about this. I've been too busy since the confinement ends.

I will update the diary with all the info in a few hours. Sorry about this. I've been too busy since the confinement ends.

This week I've been out of town. I will update the diary tonight with the results of the last 2 weeks. They are doing just right, I will update the commentary with more info about nutes and watering schedule

I've been to busy between work and recovery from vacations. I will update ALL my diaries entries today/tonight. Check them later if you want to know more about the growing and conditions.

Tonight I will update adding some photos of the final buds. Sorry for not having them yet to upload.
