A step back recently: Started a final flush (2 days in), and decided to start feeding her again - thanks to some great GD input! 250 ppm at re-start and will work my way to 500ppm? She's still rockin' along - like nothing happened. She topped out at 350 ppm without tanking PH, so she is stable here. PH is now swinging down fairly quickly last 12 hours. Drained off 1/3 of reservoir and get reservoir down to 250PPM. 5 days later, major PH swings down again. Mixed another fresh reservoir. I am using Zero Water 5 gallon system, and just realized the PPM coming out was 100, and PH at 3! If I am at 100 today, that means these filters have been shot for a while, maybe since start of my PH issue. There is also interesting information about when zero water filters reach their expectancy. They put out fishy smell and otherwise. I will be watching my filters more often and taking more notes since this ZeroWater 5 gal system is really the way to go if you are only growing a plant or two. Filters are a bit spendy but when you take time, gas, convenience etc. its a no brainer (if the water coming out is zero:) - I get about 15 gallons per filter (175ppm from tap). Day 70. It’s been about a day since new res change. Steady Eddie at 250 ppm and 6.2. I’ll let her drink the bucket down a good ways if things remain stable with a drift down. I doubt it though, 5 gallon is fine for 12” autos but at 2’ she really needed 8 gal. Time to up the R&D on the cabinet! Also checked Zero Water again and filter is now putting out 200ppm of 3.0 water. New filters installed! Hope she finishes soon, the top of her canopy slowly getting cooked over the last 10 days. 8" of light distance is too little. PPFD 2000+ at the top, but leaf temps are in the upper 70's. Gotta hit a decent DLI on these lower buds - without nuking the top nugs, right?! As the week concludes, she’s in a fresh bath, at 250ppm @ 6.0 and running stable again. New water filters installed so zero water variable removed. Last serving of half+ teaspoon of GH dry KB ripening, and will reduce ppm by 25/day until I reach 10-15%. 1-2 day flush, if at all.

Everything went according to plan. From germination the plant displayed a very good development. With no training I believe she gave a very good yield. She always looked very strong with no signs of any risk.

There was a whole lot of buds off this plant and they are dense . Totaling around a pound dry I lost a good sized chunk to pm in the bottom of the canopy due to weather . Even with ipm I still had problems . Besides that there was nothing wrong with her it was a quick germinating plant that had a solid start indoor early in the season . Once she went outdoors into a 5-7 gallon pot the final place saw it in a 7 gallon to the garden box . That have the roots room to grow . I gave the plant miicrobialmass since day one and was in pro mixbx soil . The nutrients were synthetics and organic bit I finished her off with the organic line up dutch science nutrients . The flush lasted about a week mostly because it was grown outdoors with minimal nutrients added as is .. the end results were great smoke which yielded strong medical buds and lots of sugar leaves for edibles .. thx dinafem for the chance to run your gear. I've never been disappointed with the genetics or their customer service .The next one I'm running will be Remo chemo and possibly the ocean grown too the choice is always hard

Hey now, so this week went very well, I started feeding her ripening nutes today....So I am going with silica, cal mag, maxi bloom, and then dry bloom, ph, then a little hydrogen peroxide. So far they are happy. Plan is to build a little manifold out of her if she cooperates. Thanks for stopping by, I hope your grows are Strong and fast! Be safe and Blaze On!!!

This week marks the final phase of flowering for both strains, and it’s been an incredible run. The colas are fully swollen, trichomes are mostly cloudy with around 10–15% amber, and the terpene intensity is off the charts. Every movement near the canopy releases that unmistakable scent — fruity, spicy, and heavy with resin. 24K Gold is showing her signature golden hues now. The buds are compact, sticky, and sparkling with trichomes. Pistils have mostly turned orange and curled in tightly, showing clear maturity. Gelato 33 looks equally stunning — thick, frost-covered buds with a creamy-sweet scent and purple undertones emerging under the lights. Her structure remained open enough to prevent mold despite the high density. Both plants handled the last nutrient increase (8 ml/L Canna Coco A+B) perfectly — no signs of stress or nutrient burn. From here, they’re transitioning into the flushing phase, allowing the remaining nutrients to fade out for a cleaner, smoother finish. Environmental conditions: • 🌡️ Temperature: 25.0–25.3 °C • 💧 Humidity: 52–53 % • 🌫️ VPD: 1.3–1.34 kPa • 💨 Airflow: Steady and dry for the final days This week’s update also includes defoliation and trimming before drying — the canopy has opened up nicely, and the buds are ready for harvest. The next entry will focus on flushing, fade, and drying results.

This new 2 x 2 x 55 design packs everything you could want INSIDE a 100% Wi-Fi / Smart enabled grow cabinet; including a reservoir chiller. You can easily adjust and view all your variables remotely. No more guessing or endless A/B testing. We’ve been running this new cabinet design empty for 10 days. We can keep the temperature within 1-2 degree, and the humidity within “2-4%” of our desired schedule (excluding full room exchanges); INSIDE the grow cabinet. We are implementing dual humidity system, so we will have adequate humidity inside this box without swimming in the high humidity in the office. Should help significantly with keeping LVPD in check without turning my desk into a swamp. Secondary humidifiers on the way. Three seeds are soaking today. Maybe I’ll have something in the hopper soon! Just created some software logic and added secondary humidifier into the grow box today and was able to bring the the humidity differential into check. I don’t have much faith in this 2 liter humidifier but I have room to squeeze another in on the other side if it drinks too fast. It’s on all the time with exhaust requirement. I can now keep my office around 50% and the box in the lower 60’s at canopy, with a 5-6 degree temp differential between the inside box and ambient. WAY better since I have to work in here too, and will get me in an ideal LVPD range. To get in the 60’s inside the box before meant my humidity in the office was close to 80% at times. Yikes. No dice with the “m” word. We’ll see how all the tech plays together for the next day or so. Beans should pop in the next day or two? Today added smart energy monitor outlet on grow cabinet and another for heating, cooling, humidity and circulation. This configures into our app too! System is just about dialed in with all variables in check. One bean crack today, so time to get the loose ends tied, and let her do her thing. All three seeds cracked today. Stuck them into 3 mini humidity domes filled with RW, and placed them in the grow cabinet.

Das Blümchen gibt Vollgas! Die Blütenstände werden immer dicker und duften schon extrem betörend fruchtig. Der Duft sorgt mal wieder für Uneinigkeit. Melonendüfte oder doch Rhabarber? 🤣 Insgesamt sorgt die Pflanze bisher für Begeisterung. Die Buds sind für diese Phase schon extrem weit entwickelt obwohl gerade mal die Hälfte der angegebenen Blütezeit verstrichen ist. Wo das noch hinführt bleibt abzuwarten. Entweder sehen wir nach dem angegebenen 56 bis 63 Tagen keine Blätter mehr unter den Trichomen

2018-03-20 Day 1 New week and not much to say. No water or nutes today, just the regular weekly check to see that they look nice and healthy. Raised the lamp about 10 cm to make sure that the girls don't get burned again. Zombie Kush nr1 is 58 cm Zombie Kush nr2 is 68 cm 2018-03-22 Day 3 Gave the girls 2l water/nutes this morning. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Strain information From the selection of one of Ripper seeds first genetic search works, an old Lavender Kush clone was pollinated by brilliant Amnesia. From there a clone that we named “Sideral” was selected and decided to pollinate it again later with Bubba Kush. Its vegetative cycle should be generous if we want to develop the full potential of its Indica demeanor. With a low EC both in the vegetative and the flowering cycles we will get spectacular results. Its purplish colour scheme and the great quantity of trichomes that cover its large flowers would make this strain a key one for Kush flavor lovers. Vegetative: From 2 to 4 weeks Genotipe: 20% Sativa / 80% Índica Indoor flowering: 55/60 days. Production: Medium / High Effect: Powerful / Durable ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G8sSHdfbu1g https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Twzz8lBfEQ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PnE5ixD9iTE https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bDyJXP4vEG8&t=906s ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Day 35 Diese Woche war im Verhältnis zu den vorherigen ganz ok. Von Woche 4-5 mit dem vegegativen Wachstum zufrieden. Die Seitentriebe kommen endlich etwas mehr zum Vorschein. Ich denke aber das die Ernte klein ausfällt da ich es einfach in den ersten 2 Wochen verkackt habe! Die Vorblüte ist gekommen und es wird demnächst das Licht auf 400 Watt NDL geändert . Die Ladies haben nun auch etas mehr Hunger was gut ist 😁. Ich habe Sie in dieser Woche zum ersten mal mit Drain durchgegossen, das haben Sie gemocht. Die Klimabedingungen waren wie schon die letzten Wochen super. Peace

Very lite feeding this week on the first day. Then I finished the week with r/o water. She is going dark for about 60 hours then to harvest. The smell finally came out and it’s pretty normal and pleasant IMO.

Not done much different in the last week. Just moving the light up a little. Is very close to the two tall ones to make sure the others are good. They don't seem to mind!

Buenos días familia, de vuelta actualizamos con la última semana en estado vegetativo, ya se cambió el fotoperiodo a 12/12 Y es que esta skunk están increíbles, tengo mucha curiosidad por ver que sale. Ph controlado en 6.5 , el alimento lo aceptaron muy bien. Temperatura algo baja por la noche, pero sin problema alguno, mínimas 17. Se comportan genial en indoor y no espigan nada de nada, bastante recomendable.

Hi guys Entering week 6 on the 4 strain fastbuds 420 auto tent Grown under the marshydro tsl2000. Major defoliation done yesterday and lollipopping. I no there autos and you shouldn't do this 🤣🤣🤣 never affectes them in my opinion. Few plants are in need of some calmag so I will give them some tomorrow. Some nice colors on the cherry cola 💜 ill keep you all updated.
