Ever since I turned to mars hydro I have double sometimes nearly quadrupled my yields I first had with eBay lights (meh) I have never looked back since and gained so much respect from the community and the breeders too! And to hold the sponsors I do shows me that I am doing something right and I show appreciation to all who support! And that’s why I take a different effort to be fair and document you all! Even though I’m aware your businesses I just can’t be bias when it comes to the greatest I think you all are! Thank you for choosing me! (No I’m not the only one) just showing the love back as best as I can! 💚💚💚💚💚 thank you

31 Aug. I start the third week of my autoflower. The plant is growing well, but I noticed small yellow spots on the leaf tips, which seem like a mild calcium deficiency. This is probably due to the fact that so far I have been giving water with a slightly low pH, around 6, while the ideal range would be 6.5–7. At the beginning, to lower the ppm of the tap water (which was around 211 ppm), I mixed it with demineralized water. This brought the ppm down to about 109–140, making it harder for the plant to absorb the available calcium. Additionally, the soil I am using, Biobizz Light Mix, is lightly fertilized but does not contain enough calcium to correct this small initial deficiency. For this week, I will not add any fertilizers. I simply want to raise the pH to 6.5 and use water with higher ppm, so the plant can better absorb the nutrients already present in the soil. The lamp is positioned about 35–36 cm from the plant and so far there are no burn issues. Temperatures range between 25 and 30 °C depending on the day, while humidity in the room stays between 40–60%. The humidifier is always on because I keep the window open, but the dehumidifier is not being used, as it is not necessary at the moment. I also have a new oscillating fan arriving to replace the current fixed one, and I’m waiting for a regulable extractor (90–145 m³/h), which will allow me to control the air perfectly during winter if needed. This week my main goals are: Increase the water ppm without overdoing it Adjust the pH to 6.5 Keep observing the plant without adding any fertilizers Everything else seems fine and growth is regular. With these corrections, I expect the new leaves to grow healthy and free of spots. ==UPDATE 31/08== To control the calcium deficiency, I will administer an eggshell solution until I reach 300 ppm (I will boil some eggshells and administer the solution in tap water).

Transplanted them to there final pots, using fabric pots btw. Still using ffof soil to avoid transplant shock. Almost one hour after transplant they started drooping a little which I figured is normal. Letting them grow for one week then flipping them to flowering. Only watered them with distilled water with 2.25 mg of calmag with pH of 6.5

Die Blüte Dreams beeindruckt mich immernoch mit ihrer Wuchsform. Selbst durch dass Supercropping bildet Sie einfach nur einen Trieb als Haupttrieb aus. Daher gehe ich nun davon aus, dass dies die erste Sorte in meinem Anbau ist, welche einfach nicht getopt werden sollte. Und dennoch wächst sie super weiter. Bin auf das Ergebnis absolut gespannt.

Hello, readers! Frida feels alright. She drinks more every day. Stretching a lot. 83: Photo of usual defolation, which i perform once in 2-3 days. 83. Photo of some pimple, that appeared on the stem. I have no idea, what is that, but it's not insects. It's how she grow something. I've noticed, water in a tank becoming more greeny, so I should change it. I recon, I wouldn't be able to finish to finish this grow properly, so I'm trying to shift schedule to 12/12, not rushing yet. But moving towards it day by day. I'm not sure it helps with autoflower, but i need to finish it faster

RAW GROW is a tested blend of all 12 RAW Soluble plant nutrients, essential elements and supplements. This blend has been proven to be an optimal all-in-one base “Grow” horticultural fertilizer. RAW GROW is used through out the entire vegetative stage. Derived from: Plant protein hydrolysate, mono potassium phosphate, potassium sulfate, cane molasses, sodium borate, copper sulfate, iron DTPA, magnesium sulfate, manganese sulfate, zinc sulfate and azomite. Also contains non-plant food ingredients: Humic acids derived from leonardite and peat, kelp (ascophyllum nodosum), silicon dioxide derived from diatomite and yucca extract. When you overlap a copper wire to attract ions, it is called ion exchange. Copper wire is often used as a material for ion exchange because it has a high affinity for positively charged ions, such as copper, zinc, and nickel. When copper wire is overlapped or wound into a coil, it creates a surface area that attracts ions and allows them to bind to the wire or gather within the space. This process is used in various applications, such as electroplating, water treatment, chemical separation processes and cultivation. Electrolysis is a chemical process that involves passing an electric current through a liquid or solution containing ions. This process causes the ions to migrate towards the electrodes, where they undergo a chemical reaction. In the context of plant growth, electrolysis is used to increase the availability of your nutrient-rich solution that can be used to feed plants. Electrolysis and nutrient rich reservoirs work well together since your cannabis nutrients are salt based. The process involves passing an electric current through a solution of water and plant nutrients, which causes the water molecules to break down into their constituent parts, hydrogen, and oxygen. The hydrogen ions (H+) then combine with the nutrients in the solution to form a nutrient-rich substance that can be absorbed by the plant roots easier. This will only work in a nutrient rich solution as it requires the salt-based nutrients to engage. This process, known as hydrolysis, provides the plant with a continuous supply of nutrients and oxygen, which can help to increase plant growth and improve yields. By providing the plant with a more efficient method of absorbing nutrients, electrolysis can help to increase the uptake of essential elements such as nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium. Additionally, electrolysis can help to maintain the pH balance of the growing medium, which is essential for optimal plant growth. One of the key advantages of using electrolysis to increase plant growth is that it allows for greater control over the growing system. This is exactly why this is generally a technique reserved for advanced hydroponics growers. By adjusting the voltage and current levels, cultivators can custom control the nutrient concentration and pH level of the solution, ensuring that the plant receives the optimal amount of nutrients sitting perfectly on potential hydrogen spectrum. Carotenoids absorb light in the blue-green range of the visible spectrum, complementing chlorophyll's absorption in the red range. Carotenoids protect photosynthetic machinery from excess light. They deactivate singlet oxygen, which is a harmful oxidant formed during photosynthesis. Carotenoids quench triplet chlorophyll, which can be harmful to photosynthesis. Carotenoids scavenge reactive oxygen species (ROS), which can damage cell membranes and proteins. Carotenoid derivatives signal plant development and responses to environmental cues. Carotenoids provide precursors for the biosynthesis of phytohormones like abscisic acid (ABA) and strigolactones (SLs). Carotenoids are pigments that give fruits and vegetables their orange, red, and yellow colors. They also act as free radical scavengers to protect plants during photosynthesis. Beta-carotene is the most common provitamin A carotenoid. It's found in orange and yellow fruits and vegetables like carrots, sweet potatoes, and mangos. Other carotenoids include lycopene, lutein, and zeaxanthin. These carotenoids have antioxidant and photoprotective properties. In plants, Vitamin A is found as carotenoids, which are pigments that give plants their color. Vitamin A is a fat-soluble vitamin. Vitamin B plays a vital role in plant growth and development. It acts as a coenzyme in many metabolic reactions, which are the basis for plant growth and maintenance. Vitamin B helps plants metabolize nutrients, which are essential for growth and development. Vitamin B helps plants respond to biotic and abiotic stress. Vitamin B can help plants grow new roots, which can reduce transplant shock. Vitamin B can help plants grow shoots, especially slow-growing plants. Vitamin B1 Also known as thiamine diphosphate, vitamin B1 is a key component of metabolic pathways like glycolysis and the tricarboxylic acid cycle. Vitamin B3 Also known as nicotinamide or niacin, vitamin B3 is a biostimulant that can improve plant growth and yield. Vitamin B6 Vitamin B6 acts as an antioxidant and cofactor, and is involved in plant stress responses. Vitamin C, also known as ascorbic acid, is a vital nutrient for plants that helps with growth and protects them from excess light. Vitamin C acts as a redox buffer, which is important for regulating photosynthesis. Vitamin C helps enzymes that regulate photosynthesis, hormone production, and regenerating antioxidants. Vitamin C is a coenzyme in the xanthophyll cycle, which converts excess energy into heat. This process helps plants protect themselves from too much light. seedlings to young plants can feed on 200-400 PPM, Teenage plants that have a maturing root zone can feed on 350-550 PPM and adults will feed 600-1000 PPM. The more you feed plants and watch them grow you'll get a feel for how much to give them. Less is more when trying to grasp this. High level of CEC in organic soil so I'm watering 5-gallon

It seems like I need more experience with these Earthbox jr's. I fully believe I have stunted these plants some how. I need more research, but plastic pots are certainly interesting. I need more stretch for my space...

Days 9 or 10 - I think. I somehow managed to loose track despite having this journal and spreadsheet. Eish. Its top city in this tent. Managed to get things pretty even. I will stop tucking weaving today and let the vertical growth do its thing for the rest of stretch. Dehumidifier is in use now and inline filters. Things start getting exciting now! 👽

Hola a todos, día 46 de floración, estamos entrando en la última etapa de la floración (deben quedar 3 o 4 semanas más de floración), han comenzado a mostrarse quemaduras de luz en varias zonas de las planta por lo que bajé la potencia de la luz un 15% y agregué silicio a la mezcla de nutrientes, me pregunto si necesitare aumentar el calcio, los cogollos han comenzado a ganar peso, pronto debería agregar tutores para evitar que las ramas caigan, para la próxima semana comenzaré a bajar la salinidad de a poco. Saludos!

This week I Realised I'd used the wrong feed chart so I was over feeding 🙄 the leaves burnt on a few plants so I've only fed them water this week and will resume feeding from next week. There are still no pre sex pistils showing but it can't be far off now. As soon as pistils start to show I'll start feeding bloom feed. I've turned the light up to 30000lux using HLG's online calculator for converting a lux meter/app reading to PAR , my light is 3000k which with lm301H Led's works out @ 465ppfd which is about the max the plants can use in veg without supliments co2. Here's the link for anyone using quantum boards, it has different spectrum calculators. It's been really useful setting my light up so big thank you to HLG (even though I have a Geeklight) and a thank you to the GML show on YouTube for bringing it to growers attention (I love that weekly show, so much info and perspective) https://horticulturelightinggroup.com/blogs/calculators/converting-lux-to-ppfd Hope everyone's staying safe and growing 😎

July 27: Chemdawg is flowering nicely. Despite the late start for this auto, she’ll definitely be the first one finished this year. I’m looking forward to enjoying some nice Chemdawg weed in September. July 31: trying not to overwater but also not sure how much she needs. Looks good enough.

Day 34 this lady is running, I can see flowers getting bigger every day, smell started really really soon this time so I already had to add the Carbon Filter. I’d like to close the cycle in less then 80 days. It would be great First flowering fertilisation Ph 6.2 Ppm 631 Day 37 - 9 of flower 🌸 Started blooming fertilisation, I’m keep Giving all-in one from aptus, i think I lm substitute with super pk and I stop all in one. Ph 6.2 Ppm 731 As I’m growing an solito in a 9.2 lt pots with all mix nutrients I’m slowing down with all in one and just giving base feedings, I ll decide later if I should give super-pk for the next weeks Day 40, tomorrow will be feeding days. Sge’s going really well, resin is already showing up on flowers that are several as and colorfull, smell is already there 🤤 Tomorrow update with feedings parameters. Day 41 feeding day Aptus regulator 0,15ml/1 lt Aptus all in one 1,25ml/1lt Aptus Topbooster 0,3 ml Aptus enzym + 0,5 ml Calmag 0,3 ml /L Ph 6,18 Ppm 756 Let’s see

3x3 Clone Tent (Frosted Gelato, G-41, Frozay Pie, Black Cherry Gas) - Organishield foliar IPM and Soil Program watering treatments. Top dressed using BuildAFlower, worm castings, and FF Fruit and Flower top dressing. Week 3 defoliation in flower. Adjusted scrog netting upwards 2-3" for continued plant structure support heading into week 3 flower. Combination of cold weather, low ph, and insufficient levels of mag/cal micronutrients. Gave clones a feeding of FF Beastie Bloomz with Cal/Mag to help with macro/micro nutrients. End of week update - more bud development stacking nicely with leaves beginning to turn a variety of colors mostly reds and purples. Beautiful. 2x4 Tent (Humboldt Seed Blueberry Cupcake/TH Seeds French Macaron) - Organishield foliar IPM and Soil Program watering treatments. Applied new 2x4 AC Infinity netting for scrog plant structure support. BBCC began showing signs of rust on older lower leaves. Combination of cold weather, low ph, and insufficient levels of mag/cal micronutrients. Adjusted ph and feed FF Beastie Bloomz with Cal/Mag. End of week update - BBCC recovering nicely after treatment and nutrient feeding. Continue to take advantage of flower stretch by fanning out growth filling in empty areas of the scrog netting. 2x2 Tent (Afgooey Autos) - first application of Organishield foliar IPM and Soil Program watering treatments. Need 2-3 more days before transplant into final three gallon grow bags. Cuttings are in day 12 using peat pellets. No visible sign of rooting yet. 2x2 UPDATE: Transplanted three Afgooey Autos into 3 gallon fabric bags with FF Happy Frog, Light Warrior, and Natures Living Soil for autos and Mykos for roots. Two days later, the plants are thriving. Day 13 and cuttings beginning to show first signs of root development in peat pellets. Continue to mist and monitor for next two days before transplanting into dixie cups. End of week update - WE HAVE ROOTS. Continued vibrant growth of transplanted autos. Because of space restrictions and volume of combined grows, I will top autos in the next few days. Not normally recommended, but I have topped autos previously and if done early enough the females should recover fully prior to flowering.
