Tweak, tweak, tweak, getting her set up for the switch. Double net this time. Going to oversaturate with red wavelengths for a week before we dial her in. I dropped her to 12 hours and upped the PPFD accordingly. Waiting game for now. Last grow I was not sure if it was me messing with darkness or if my overloading of sugar, but I felt the flower was delayed quite a bit from what I was used to. Could not put my finger on it at first. High concentrations of sugar can delay flowering by extending the late vegetative phase. This delays the activation of LFY expression, which controls floral transition. Sugar signals are involved in all key transitions of the plant life cycle. Sugar signaling interacts with hormone signaling pathways. Red light wavelengths between 600–700 nanometers (nm) encourage budding and flowering. Red light affects hormones like auxins, which control how plants stretch and develop flowers.Red light interacts with phytochromes to affect plant morphology. Phytochromes also play a role in shade avoidance and sensing changes in the local light environment and time of year. The aim is to replicate nature, UVA peak + predominantly reds at sunrise UVB peaks at noon UVA peak + predominantly far-reds at sunset Also has a light coating of 850nm&940nm IR, 45% of the sunlight that reaches the surface of the earth is IR, Infrared (IR) light primarily provides heat to plants, which can be beneficial for growth within a certain range, but too much IR can cause stress, damage, and even kill plants due to excessive heat, disrupting their normal photosynthetic processes; while plants don't directly use IR for photosynthesis, it can influence aspects like flowering and leaf expansion when present in appropriate amounts. Particularly in the far-red wavelengths, can trigger the shade avoidance response, where plants sense a lack of direct light and accelerate stem growth to reach for better light conditions. This is especially useful in indoor environments where light conditions are carefully managed. Increasing this light can affect the growth speed of plants' stems. A short exposure to infrared increases the space between nodes. However too much infrared may actually damage plants. Because infrared is a kind of light that can emit a great deal of heat. While the spectral composition of sunlight at both sunrise and sunset is essentially the same, the key difference lies in the increased scattering of shorter wavelengths like blue and violet light during these times due to the longer path the sunlight takes through the atmosphere, resulting in a more pronounced red and orange color at the horizon, as these longer wavelengths are scattered less and reach our eyes more readily. A sunset generally has more far-red light than a sunrise because the sunlight travels through a longer path through the atmosphere at sunset, causing more blue light to scatter and leaving a greater proportion of red and far-red wavelengths visible to the eye. The Pr/Pfr ratio is the ratio of phytochrome Pr to phytochrome Pfr in a plant. The ratio changes throughout the day and night, and it affects how the plant grows and flowers. How the ratio changes Daytime: Red light converts Pr to Pfr, so the ratio is low. Nighttime: Far-red light converts Pfr to Pr, so the ratio is high. Seasons: The ratio changes with the seasons because of the length of the days and the position of the sun. How does the ratio affect the plant? Photomorphogenesis: The ratio triggers photomorphogenesis, which is when a seed transforms into a sprout. Flowering: The ratio affects whether short-day or long-day plants flower. Growth: The ratio affects how much a plant grows. For example, a lower ratio of red to far-red light can improve a plant's growth under salinity conditions. How do plants sense the ratio? Plants use pigments to sense the ratio of red to far-red light. Using the phytochrome system to measure the ratio at dawn and dusk. The phytochrome system helps plants adjust their growth according to the seasons. Ratio. In controlled environment agriculture, customized light treatments using light-emitting diodes are crucial to improving crop yield and quality. Red (R; 600-700 nm) and blue light (B; 400-500 nm) are two major parts of photosynthetically active radiation (PAR), often preferred in crop production. Far-red radiation (FR; 700-800 nm), although not part of PAR, can also affect photosynthesis and can have profound effects on a range of morphological and physiological processes. However, interactions between different red and blue light ratios (R:B) and FR on promoting yield and nutritionally relevant compounds in crops remain unknown. Here, lettuce was grown at 200 µmol m-2 s-1 PAR under three different R:B ratios: R:B87.5:12.5 (12.5% blue), R:B75:25 (25% blue), and R:B60:40 (40% blue) without FR. Each treatment was also performed with supplementary FR (50 µmol m-2 s-1; R:B87.5:12.5+FR, R:B75:25+FR, and R:B60:40+FR). White light with and without FR (W and W+FR) were used as control treatments comprising of 72.5% red, 19% green, and 8.5% blue light. Decreasing the R:B ratio from R:B87.5:12.5 to R:B60:40, there was a decrease in fresh weight (20%) and carbohydrate concentration (48% reduction in both sugars and starch), whereas pigment concentrations (anthocyanins, chlorophyll, and carotenoids), phenolic compounds, and various minerals all increased. These results contrasted the effects of FR supplementation in the growth spectra; when supplementing FR to different R:B backgrounds, we found a significant increase in plant fresh weight, dry weight, total soluble sugars, and starch. Additionally, FR decreased concentrations of anthocyanins, phenolic compounds, and various minerals. Although blue light and FR effects appear to directly contrast, blue and FR light did not have interactive effects together when considering plant growth, morphology, and nutritional content. Therefore, the individual benefits of increased blue light fraction and supplementary FR radiation can be combined and used cooperatively to produce crops of desired quality: adding FR increases growth and carbohydrate concentration while increasing the blue fraction increases nutritional value. https://www.frontiersin.org/journals/plant-science/articles/10.3389/fpls.2024.1383100/full Here are a few examples of good time lapse intervals based on the subject: Fast-moving clouds, traffic: 1-2 seconds Sunsets, sunrises, slower clouds: 2-5 seconds Moving shadows, sun across the sky (no clouds): 15-30 seconds Star trails: 30 seconds or longer Plant growth, construction projects: Minutes or longer intervals

Clones are nice and rooted threw off some new growth. So its time to rock and roll into flower. Get this breeding underway. Been on 12/12 for couple days now and the male has soared. Definitely gunna be more than adequate height to dump pollen down on my ladies. I treated with Dr zhymes as s preventative. I also got them on a balanced feed. Hopefully that will get the ladies engines booming. Until next update. Happy growing and stay lit fam. Update **** Holy ball sacs! The master kush is piling on the flowers in clusters. What a machine. Definitely bringing quality traits to the table.

She's over doubled her height this week!!!!!!!!!! Looks like she's going great! An educated guess says she is just about to enter flowering in the coming week.

Buenas a tod@s.... Bueno, sexta semana de esta red cookie gelato, la variedad para mí gusto en lo q va de tiempo para mí va muy bien, va tomando forma interesante entre aromas y evolución de la misma, la pigmentación pero solo de una planta ya q son las tresx ila misma variedad. ahora q ya le queda poco vamos a ver q tal va, de momento sigo con la misma temperatura, intentado bajar la humedad a un punto y ahi intentar mantener, la temperatura igual... 3 semanas más de floración, vamos a ver q tal siguen, para mí gusto, van de lujo... Una joya! 💎👌🏻 Buen finde para tod@s y buenos humos... 🇦🇷🤝🏻🇪🇦 💨💨😎😎

After 35 days of vegetation we send them into Flower. They get 2 hours less light every day until we reached the day/night-cycle 12/12 hours. we have noticed that they have already started their stretch. they grow 5-10 cm every day. We water them with bio grow for the first time.

Still struggling with humidity. But I have really good airflow and ventilation. Continue to defoliate plants. Stretch is over or at least almost. Due to previous lights one plant is about 3 days behind the other 2. Already smells great/loud. Girlfriend hates it. Not a smoker.

Vamos familia septima semana de floración de estás Tropical Zmoothie de SeedStockers. Que ganas tengo de ver el progreso de esta variedad, las plantas están sanas, se ven con buen color. Ya entramos en la recta final de esta variedad. La cantidad de agua cada 48h entre riegos. Esta semana añadimos nutrientes de la gama Agrobeta. Las plantas están bastante bien y eso que subió par de grados la temperatura que en mi tierra hace mucho calor. Estas próximas semanas veremos como avanzan y progresan las flores.

So here we are, at the end, a few months later. I was so happy that I'll finally grow a plant without any training at all, just to see the full and uninterrupted genetic expression. It was a blast to grow her, I can't wait for the plant to dry and give it a few weeks of curing but she smells great already. I also wanted to thank Divine Seeds for the contest strain and Bio Tabs for great Bio fertilizer. You can judge for yourself because I'll let the photographs speak for themselves. Speaking of photography, I went with a moody style this time, because she has a great structure. I've trimmed her a little bit here and there and I've left a few big fan leaves on both sides for better looks. The big fan leaves reflect the light so well, it make the whole plant shine. Okay now head to the gallery and let all that sink in ;) XOXO Cremo

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 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

It would only let me upload a 50 second clip I sent my buddy 🤣😂🤣😂 I’m an idiot ⭐️⭐️⭐️HARVEST DAY⭐️⭐️⭐️ Last full week was flushing again -Flush flush time 15 days -Starting runoff 9.6 EC -Ending runoff 0.2 EC No water the last day and a half. These are so full and hard I didn’t even bother doing an initial weigh in for cut hung plant material weight. These will be stored in the flower room at 58-60% and 60-62% humidity. It’s going to be a long dry. I’m guessing 14-21 days. 👆 I CAN LEAVE THESE HUNG FLANTS IN THE ROOM AS LONG AS I CHOOSE IF THE CONDITIONS STAY AT 58 DEGREES AND 62% HUMIDITY I will be back to upload a harvest week with trimmed bud shots. This was a really good grow. The super lemon haze should be a breeze to trim because of how uniform the leaves are even though there is a lot of them. Smells delicious…I’ll see you next week!

Hey everyone! Welcome to our second grow journal! We're growing the same strains as in the first journal, but this time, we plan to only top the plants. They're in 18-liter pots, and you'll be able to follow their progress here as well. These plants are 20 days younger than the ones in the first grow, so it'll be interesting to compare their development. Stay tuned for updates!

Day 24 she’s looking beautiful. I’m super happy for her. She’s great had a growth spurt. Excited for her her little pre flowers are showing. I chose not to train her since she was a late bloomer. We shall see what she has to show. candy 🍬
