Sativfaction In this second week, I increased the intensity of the LED to reach 18,000 LUX at the tips of the plants, maintaining a distance of 50cm. In one of the waterings, I added nitrogen (Fish Mix), in another Bio Heaven, and always CalMag, since I start with low mineralization water (EC 0.05).

Sativfaction The girls are growing fast!
I've lowered the intensity of the fans because I've noticed some windburn, and I've also reduced the LED intensity since they were getting closer and starting to show light stress.
At the tips, they were reaching 35k LUX.
This week they've surpassed 35cm, so I'll be switching them to flowering soon.
Day 29: Since the transplant last week, I haven't added any nutrients. Today I'm doing topping on all of them except for the Nepal Jam.

Sativfaction -> The 5th week of vegetative growth begins.
Every day I will decrease the light by 1 hour until I reach the flowering cycle of 12/12. Gradually, I will increase the intensity of the LEDs so that the girls can acclimate comfortably and without stress :)
-> I apply Delta9 foliarly (7 days before switching to flower) at a ratio of 6ml/Ltr.
The photos were taken just after watering and the foliar application, right before the lights go out, so the leaves don't burn with the droplets.
---------------[ day 35 ]---------------
-> I apply 1ml/l Calmag foliarly to correct a possible deficiency.
-> I turn on the fourth LED bar to cover the entire space of the cabinet and separate the plants. Currently, the power is 450w.

Sativfaction 👉 I'm starting the flowering:
.- I'm moving to the final pot (14 Lts)
.- I'm applying Delta9 (first application in watering). In the next watering, I'll add Bactobloom from Agrobacterias.
.- I'm doing a light defoliation
.- I'm turning on the support Quantum Boards for flowering, with the Far Red and Infrared spectrum, to speed up the process. The total intensity is 475w, I'll gradually increase it to around 600~700w.
⚠️ Observing the size that the plants have reached in these 5 weeks, I think I should have started flowering earlier. I'm afraid they're going to grow too much for my closet 😳

Sativfaction Hello friends.
There's not much to tell here: the plants are slowly fattening up the buds and are starting to get covered in trichomes.
So far, there have been no serious incidents, no pests, no severe deficiencies or overfeeding, and no nutrient lockouts.
HAPPY PLANTS = EVERYONE HAPPY!!
😊
Thank you for following me. I really appreciate your comments and recommendations/advice.
Best regards

Sativfaction Hello comrades!
I’m in love with this grow: the girls get along REALLY WELL with each other, they seem happy and relaxed.
They are turning out VERY EASY to grow and they’re helping me, because I’ve had a lot of work outside the house these days, so a couple of times I’ve been late with the watering, to the point of finding them with their leaves totally drooping and wilted 😱 but they have recovered perfectly with no signs of stress. Thanks @ace-seeds for such amazingly good genetics!! 💪💪
Thanks for your comments and advice.
Good smokes!

Sativfaction Week 4 of flowering.
The Kosher Kush is showing early signs of nutrient deficiency. She definitely needs more fertilizer than the Zamadelicas and the Nepal Jam.
I'm applying some extra fertilizer to correct it.
The Nepal Jam is gorgeous!!
Overall, they're starting to smell... VERY GOOD 😋
Thanks for your comments and advice.

I'm afraid Guanokalong hasn't worked as I expected... 😟

Sativfaction Sixth week of flowering. It seems that by increasing the nutrients, the deficiencies that were showing last week have been corrected. The smell when opening the cabinet is intoxicating.

Sativfaction Starting week 7 with a root flush and no nutrients from now on. (Last pretty pictures 😆)
The smell is intoxicating.
⚠️ Update on day 53 of flowering: my dear Nepal JAM has turned hermaphrodite! 😣
Day 14, end of the second week. Tomorrow it's time to transplant into 7-liter pots. Following @hidroponico's style, I'll prepare the substrate like this:
- 6 liters of BioBizz Light Mix
- 1 liter of BioBizz Worm Humus
- 40g of Guanokalong Complete Organics
- 1 tablespoon of Xtreme Gardening Mykos mycorrhizae
Today, on the 12th, I'm applying neem oil 1ml/ltr. and potassium soap 5ml/ltr. foliarly as a preventive measure, since there are many wild gardens in my area, full of whiteflies and red spider mites.
This week I watered twice: the first time just bottled water with low mineralization (EC 0.05) and for the second watering, I added Calmag to raise the EC to 0.45, adding Bactohem to improve root development and some Silica (silic boost) foliar to strengthen the stems.
I have a humidifier running to keep the humidity between 60% and 70%, while a fan creates a gentle breeze over the sprouts.
One of the Kosher Kush didn't thrive, as when it came out of the Jiffi, a cotyledon and the part where the leaves sprout were left inside, so I started growing the remaining seeds and ended up with the Zamadelica.
Result:
3x Zamadelica x Kali China
1x Nepal Kam
1x Kosher Kush (only one out of three sprouted)
Hi AmigRpls,
I start this new 100% organic crop. This time I will try using as far as possible, only Guanokalong “COMPLETE ORGANICS”, to see how these magnificent seeds come out of the best banks. 😃
I mainly seek to facilitate watering, avoiding preparing fertilizers and liquid additives for each plant, which is what I usually do and takes a long time.
As always, my goal is: quality versus quantity.
As stress techniques, the intention is only to apply topping once or twice and as they grow fast, also some LST to try some mini-tutors that I just brought from china, in principle for tomato plants. I want to avoid having them in vegetative a long time.
Welcome and thank you for your advice. 😉
@HighRoller909,
That congo wasn't 100% done. My friend had to harvest a bit too early, as one of the plants went hermie, and he didn't realize until it was too late: all went pollinated 😂
@Sativindico, my Congo went hermie too,but I didn't care because I had only 2 plants.Smoke was awesome still.I got loootss of seeds off it.And I knew it from beginning :D
@HighRoller909,
I've got some of those Congo seeds too, waiting to grow when I found the space and time.
I wouldn't like to mix them in the same tent with other feminized seeds, because seeds from hermaphrodite use to become hermie too 😅
I have the greatest memories from the Bangi Congo x Panama: superb sandalwood/incense scent, not too strong, but a clean mental high, body drunk if you stand up fast from the sofa, hapiness feeling lasting long time and non getting tolerance smoking it every day. Absolutely a strain to repeat.
Hi @HighRoller909, how do you do, mate?
Did you see my dearest Nepal JAM become hermie? 😢
I've read you had the same problem with yours... how did you handled it?
@Sativfaction, nothing to worry about mate.NEp jam will surely do the best till the end.I've had about 10-15 seeds from it but I'm not sure if it hermied or got pollinated by the hermied Congo.Separate it from others if you have another light and space but I don't think it will cause chaos in the tent.I grew it out despite having seeds,no problem,do the same.Looks like it is gonna be done in 2 weeks.not much time left.
I found bananas in my A5 and Golden Tiger this round,they are both bombs!
Hey,
Yes it's clearly and under feeding issue. I'd say it's a general lack of bloom nutrients (PK) and maybe some macro nutrients. Don't freak out tho, increase the feeding without going overboard and the yellowing should stop. Keep in mind that the leaves affected by the deficiency won't go back to normal but you still have plenty of healthy leaves. The end yield is going to be affected but if you correct the problem now it won't be that dramatic, good luck !
Hey mate @CrokuDodu,
Let's see how is developing for the next weeks.
Just for reference... whats the EC you apply during this period?
Thank you and best regards
@Sativfaction, To my knowledge, when growing organic EC can not be properly measured so it's pretty useless to measure it ;) ! I don't even measure pH when going organic !
Hey @CrokuDodu, then... can I borrow your wise hands?? 😄 😉
Tonight I'm watering again, rearranging the nutrients dosage to the actual bloom stage. Let's see next week the results.
Your crop is almost done... and it looks terrific 👏👏👏👏 Congrats!!
Hi @Bud_Spencer,
I use the LUXmeter as a reference only, to check wich plant is receiving more or less light, so I can chose the right place, distance and intensity. In my case, with the leds I use, I've found the plants get burn receiving over 40k LUX.
I bought the luxmeter in Aliexpress for 25usd more or less, but anyway, the proper machine is a PARmeter, but is very expensive.
You can read about led metrics here, if you like:
https://www.hortidaily.com/article/9094990/horticulture-lighting-metrics-understand-grow-lights/
best regards!!
Thanks @HighRoller909, but i'm starting to PANIC when the color of the leaves turn to yellow 5 or more weeks before harvest... 😰
Look what happen next week (i'm prepearing the pics now)
Hi @CrokuDodu, yeap... i'm afraid i've been too short with the nutrients 😣
Please take a look to the next week and tell me what do you think about my Zamal #2 😢
Thanks for your comments
Hahahah bro you definitely should have switched to veg at week 4 :D looking very healthy and have very disciplined shape. And you have the Nepalese phenotype of Nepal Jam ,congrats. Straight up growing plant with square shaped buds,like grenades. Amazingly warm and happy high,too much giggle and a rotten,caramel taste. Sorry for the spoiler :D
