Day 50 400 ml plain rain - just drank up her nutes Day 51 400ml plain rain - prob need to thin her out for flower - instead going to lst the leading stems in the centre - try and get some 2dary growth and control that stretch and then see which other stems make it to the party by end of week Day 52 400ml plain rain Defoliated heavily for preflower stretch - took out all fans of strong established stems and fans of totally weak sites which I fimmed. Fimmed a few under branches. Pulled the leading mainlines out again - there is so much stretch so very soft, can't tie down so rolled them and the central stems that are leading - just to get them to toughen up. Exposed many who might be something - left their fans on if they wanna try. Then I decided I wanted to try the scrog idea I had and would you adam and eve it? It fit! Gentlefolks - may I present "disability_scrog". I had this left over from when I was real ill, and just thought with my cargo net from the car ... anyway I don't know what I'm thinking LOL. It fits - didn't take too long either but after the pruning and looking after my mite infested 24hr grow - I will save the tying in for tomorrow, yaaaaaay 😏 Day 53 Well yesterdays' defoliation has resulted in lots of stems going for it, going to hold off on tying in. Getting a good idea of the shape now - won't be long. 400ml of 2:1000ml grow big, tiger bloom 1:1000ml calmag in pH adjusted rain water Day 54 3:1000ml Big Bloom in 400ml plain rain OK - this is not a full scrog - the mainlining and intensive training were done thinking this was an auto 😏 so it leaves me doing this stinking job again - I swear one day I will do a proper scrog with proper ties from start and everything but in the meantime.... I intensively fimmed everything at bottom including their fans - leaving stronger stems to get more air & light. Under leading meristems, I left a few nodes and their fans for the general wellbeing of plant. The mainlines are still tied to get more light to the remaining branches I hope will stretch. As per usual I have two sap sucker leading stems that are screwing everything up - these are tucked and hoping won't hold up the rest from stretching. We'll see over next week if I need to lower the net or release her ties and unspring the plant and retie her in final position Day 55 Plain Rain 400ml Day 56 I reckon one more day and will tie her in 😊 She had 3:1000ml Big Bloom 2:1000ml Tiger Bloom Grow Big 1:1000ml Calmag in 500ml plain rain [she was thirsty] - last of the Grow Big for her now - Bloom all the way 👍👊 Great week 😎

07/23/24. Going into week 4 flower After last update, the things I mentioned worsened. The yellowing turned pasty and almost whitish. The leaves feel weird.. like thick and not rubbery.. but kinda. Don’t know how to describe it. I had stopped feeding her, other than calmag with micros, one of which is iron. I had also backed the light off since she also appeared burned on the buds or something. Wasn’t noticing much improvement so I checked runoff and it was very acidic. I then over a few hours time gave her large amounts of water until it got more clear when it came out. After that I finished off with just the calmag/iron. A few hours later her leaves were perked up. They still looked bad obviously not going to change that fast. Jumping to today, parts of the leaves look to be regaining some green, especially in the veins and in toward the bases, which is where the most white/yellow was. The buds are starting to grow again, but still appear burnt and lacking hairs. With the green returning..if you look now the symptoms would say nutrient burn. I’m not an expert, but I’m unaware of nutrient burn turning a plant white and yellow and being able to regain green after? If I’m wrong on that please let me know. For now I am going to just keep going on with water silica and calmag OAC as it seems to be at least doing something that looks right. I also feel the lights way too dimmed (50% 22in) and high, but not taking chances. I’d rather have the plant healthy vs killing her for bud size. Hopefully too much damage hasn’t been done and my once beautiful Pablita will once again be. 😿 Update: 07/26/24 More whiteness/pasty has decreased and a few little hairs have sprouted! This seems like progress. As green gradually reappears on top.. it’s disappearing in other spots.

Hi guys!!! we're doing pretty well now the buds swell day by day ... i am giving fertilizer once a week specifically this week in 1 L of water I put: co2 ¼ of tablet enzymes 1.5 ml candy 3 ml top bud 1 ml i am keeping a ph of 6.3 / 6.5 are you curious to try the LEDs but you don't have enough information? I found the ideal solution with this VIPARSPECTRA XS2000 lamp. this well-known brand offers different solutions look at the official website https://viparspectra.eu/ or Search for it on Amazon: Amazon US: https://amzn.to/30xSTVq Amazon Canada: https://amzn.to/38udUVe Viparspectra UE: bit.ly/ViparspectraUE Viparspectra USA: bit.ly/ViparspectraUS keep following me 😝 if you like my work leave a like and/or comment 👍 maryjane23 👻

Another steady week of bud development. I haven't really done much with those apart from the occasional removal of yellow leaves and tucking nuisance leaves under the net. The plants are all still growing in line with the previous expectations, with Topping and LST being the biggest, Mainlined next and then LST only in last place. It will be interesting to see the results though. Should only be a few more weeks until harvest, as a large majority of trichomes are already milky.

They're getting limey tops and a little serrated so we gave them a full strength dose of calmag earlier today (will doc next week) and moved the light up a few inches..we expect they'll look better in a week or so... We also removed any large fan leaf blocking the center growth.. The Solux350 is kicking ass at 75% power, it looks like plenty of light to the eye however we do intend to run it at 100% after their flowering stretch.. not too much else to report,, great genetics and lighting make for easy weeks!

Der Stretch ist offiziell vorbei! Beide Sorten – 24K Gold und Gelato 33 – haben ihre Endhöhe erreicht und konzentrieren sich nun voll auf die Blütenproduktion. Das Blätterdach steht dicht und gleichmäßig, alle Spitzen sind auf einer Ebene und perfekt im Lichtfeld. 24K Gold zeigt jetzt kräftige Blütenansätze an allen Haupt- und Seitentrieben. Ihre Tops sind bereits mit einem feinen weißen Flaum bedeckt, die Blütenstruktur wirkt kompakt und gleichmäßig. Sie duftet bereits leicht süßlich mit einem typischen Kush-Unterton. Gelato 33 präsentiert sich etwas buschiger mit engen Internodien. Ihre Blütenstände sind kleiner, aber sehr zahlreich – viele kleine Tops, die sich gleichmäßig entlang der Triebe bilden. Das Blätterwerk bleibt sattgrün und gesund, keinerlei Anzeichen von Stress oder Nährstoffmangel. Nach dem Entfernen des Netzes stehen die Pflanzen frei und stabil. Eine gezielte Entlaubung wurde abgeschlossen, um Licht und Luft optimal zu verteilen. Düngung & Setup: • 💧 Canna Coco A + B → 6 ml/l • 📈 EC 1.6 | pH 5.8 • 🌡️ 25–26 °C Tag / 21 °C Nacht • 💧 Luftfeuchtigkeit 50 % • 💨 Starke Umluft & stabile Tropfbewässerung Der Übergang in die Hauptblüte verläuft absolut stressfrei – die Pflanzen sind gesund, vital und bereit, Masse aufzubauen. Ab nächster Woche folgt der Fokus auf Blütendichte und Harzbildung – das spannendste Stadium beginnt jetzt!

As of this week I can see she's finally recovered after all the stress I put her through (HST, topping, LST) On August 1, watered it 1300ml, ph of the solution was 6.44, I added rhino skin 1ml and 1.3ml each- cal mag, bio root and biothrive grow. Had some run off but she sucked it all in, in less than 5 minutes I barely had time to measure the ph of the run off which was 6.72. Planning on transplanting it this week to a 5 or 7 gallon pot, she's currently in a 1 gallon pot. August 2, watered it 1L, ph 6.46. Added 1ml each- rhino skin, cal mag, bio root and biothrive grow. 6.77ph of the run off, (barely had any, she sucked it all in right away) August 3rd transplanted her to a 5 gallon pot and watered it 1500ml water ph 6.45 Added 1.5 ml each- rhino skin, cal mag, biothrive grow and bio root. No runoff. August 5th, watered it 1800ml water added 1.5ml each- rhino skin cal mag, bio root and 1.8ml biothrive grow August 6, watered it 3L water, 6.45ph Added rhino skin 3ml, cal mag 2.5ml, bio root 3ml, biothrive grow 3.5ml No run off

This week didn't start very well as while trying to apply LST to one of the two branches I broke it. ❌ Luckily the plant recovered quickly and therefore I was able to proceed with the second topping to continue the mainlining technique. ✔️ The plant is a little asymmetrical, but I will try to adjust it in the next weeks of vegetative growth. 🔍 I slightly increased the nutrients. 🔝

Cropped Thursday evening, 3/4 days before necessary for complete maturation. Better to lose 2 ounces of weed now than having the plant destroyed by the storm later on. Yeld is below the expectations. Wet weight after 1 day fro crop (buds cleared of leaves) 2.91 lbs (1320 grams). This is caused partially by my pheno (pheno #1 sativa-like, low yield and high THC) and by some mistakes I've done: 1- position in the garden (too close to the sisters) 2- I haven't considered the change in the sun's trajectory and inclination from August onwards. 3- too much LTS (but I was obliged to keep plants short and bushy) 4- underwater (this is my fault, I always tend to keep plants on the verge of thirst. I dug up the roots and the plant actually needed a lot more water). Now she's gone I'm more relaxed and concerned on Special Kush #1, the next week crop and Pineapple Kush the October harvest. Without Royal Gorilla the smell around the home is reduced by 70%. Dry trimming. All buds have been washed before drying and will be dryed very very slowly in a strictly controlled environment. Stay tuned for the next week or 10 days , a generous crop is comin'.... with Special Kush #1. See you in a couple of weeks for harvest results and smoke report. Happy growing folks

Die Ente hat sich relativ einfach gestaltet da ich nur Blätter abgeschnitten habe die kein Harz Besatz hatten. Die anderen zuckerblätter wenn sie trocken sind da es einfacher ist und sich so auch die Blüten schöner beschneiden lassen ich freue mich schon darauf. Mein erster Grow mit Divine Seeds Genetik macht Lust auf mehr!

All are receiving the same nutrients and but slightly diluted for the autos. Both RQS Milky Way and Medusa) and Divine Seeds Opium show the same nutrient deficiency/excess in the leaves. Divine Bullet and Escobar do not reflect the nutrient issue indicating strong genetics. Thank you @DivineSeeds for the opportunity to participate in the auto grow contest. Thanks for the visits, likes and comments; I appreciate all the plant love💚. Have fun & love what you grow 💚 Sending you good vibes of love, light, and healing 💫 💫Natrona 💫 DIVINE SEEDS ***AUTO OPIUM*** Harvest:1000 g/m2 Divine Seeds developed Opium as a new champion strain, unprecedently powerful and loaded with unbelievable quantities of resin. Certainly, no average genetic base could be behind such brilliant parameters! Several Afghani Indica landraces, recognized as most potent and resinous, were bred together with a mighty Brazilian Sativa which Opium inherits its bright berry taste from. Then a great deal of work followed aiming for the highest THC level and endurability as well as a branchy structure that would provide maximal yields. Now we can proudly title Opium the best Indica you could dream of growing! Indoors these plants mostly stay mid-height (1.5 m), reaching up to 2.0 m out of doors. Depending on your height limitations, Opium flourishes universally in grow boxes, balconies, green houses and terraces. Due to its Afghani parentage, this strain can stand hot weather if provided enough water and some shadow. Responds well to any training techniques: ScroG and SoG, LST, topping and FIM, supercropping. The start of blooming is marked with a rush of growth, when plants stretch almost 1.4x. Expect heavy colas that often require additional supports. Whilst ripening, Opium gives off a pungent earthy stench with fruity and berry undertones, also a bit of pine. Ready for outdoor harvesting in October. The stoning psychedelic impact of Opium is like being hypnotized (unless you’ve had too much, then it feels more like a blackout). Stone-lovers will appreciate every minute with Opium: its spicy taste immerses your mind into daydreaming, while the body rests flat. Recreation with this psychedelic Indica means silent tripping from one insight to another. Mighty enough to kill chronical pains, Opium is also medically efficient against insomnia, nausea, appetite disorders, muscle spasms, headaches, irritation, fatigue, panic attacks, epilepsy. Best consumed at night time, the effects keep going for up to 4 hours.

The week starts Monday, Jan-13 in flowering stage. The plant is growing fast, stretching long and I'm constantly tying down branches to maintain an even canopy. There's also a stronger scent of lemon already in the tent. Carried out substantial defoliation of almost all the big fan leaves and a few little stems that were not likely to make it above the canopy. Avoided defoliating the major cola branches. This encourages the plant not to waste resources on a node which is only going to produce “popcorn” buds. The plants reacted well to the defoliation and were looking good by the end of the light cycle for the day. The net is completely full and this will be the last week of applying any LST as part of the ScrOG setup. Light is maintained at 30cm distance from canopy, with daily fertigation at lights on - watering almost 3L per day. Lowered the average RH in the space to 50%. ----prior 4 weeks updates ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The week starts Monday, Jan-06 in flowering stage. The net is filling up nicely with the ScrOG process being enjoyable - just tucking branches nicely under squares once stretched enough. Lost a branch end with 3 nodes accidentally whilst tucking away so now I'm super careful. The Sativa dominant strain is stretching nicely and bends easily. Minor defoliation of lower branches and fan leaves continues daily. Light is maintained at 30cm distance from canopy. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The week starts Monday, Dec-30 in vegetative stage - switching the light regime to flowering. Initiated flowering with an extended dark period prior to switching light regime - this practice is supposed to promote a faster initiation of flowering by the plant. Maintain lights off from Dec-31, 10:00 until Jan 1 - 18:45 allowing a 32hr darkness period prior to switching the light regime. Light regime is set for 12.5/11.5 on/off allowing me a better maintenance window for my living situation. Both plants are growing fast and strong, showing their genetic traits. Some shoots are going through the net already. Have started to tuck branches as they grow to fill up any gaps. Did minor defoliation on both plants near their stem base and centres. Some green algae on roots/coco medium on the surface of the pot. Have defoliated some more which hopefully helps with air circulation at the area. Will monitor over the week - may need to decrease watering frequency, although they seem to be keeping up drinking. Lowered the High Humidity setting of the extraction fan to 60% - which effectively keeps it running at least 75% of the time, and removed the humidifier. Will monitor and adjust as necessary lowering the setting to 50% in a few weeks whilst flowering. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The week starts Monday, Dec-23 in vegetative stage. Installed the ScrOG net - Set at 20cm from the base of the plants, being 55cm from ground. The plant is showing great growth, lots of branching and new growth sprouts. A few branches are beginning to come through the net and almost all main branches are now tied down horizontally after the two recent toppings. Applied more LST and will wait for the branches to reach the net and start tucking. The AC Infinity fan is currently only running intermittently with its current settings. This seems to impact the utilisation and effectiveness of the carbon filter in use. The desired outcome is for the fan to be running for longer periods whilst in Auto config. Lowered the High Level Humidity from 70% to 60%, and more importantly, lowered the Max Speed from 4 to 2 with the intent that a lower fan speed will result in longer periods where the extraction fan is operated to remain below threshold targets for the grow space. Plant growth continues to be strong at the end of the week. Big fan leaves near the top are beginning to look a little serrated and dark, similar to the start of this grow. This may be due to the extra CalMag being added which was the issue at the start of the grow. Will keep monitoring and half the CalMag dosage on next feed. Importantly, I have learnt nutrient mixing of the CalMag should be done prior to the Canna Coco A & B. To date I have done the opposite which may explain my earlier issues. Fertigating daily at the start of the light cycle. One more week of vegetative growth before switching to flowering although I may need to switch earlier due to the vigorous growth and considering the stretch yet to come. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ................................. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- My grow setup includes; - Secret Jardin DS120W tent (120cm x 60cm x 180cm) placed inside the bedroom. Passive intake of air is from a closed off section of the room where the central heating boiler sits - the intake is warm air (20 degC.) and fairly dry (40% RH) during the winter months. - Mars Hydro SP250 LED light - extraction fan - AC Infinity Cloudline T6 - ventilation fans - aquarium heater - small oil heater - small dehumidifier - 20L Airpots and 3.5L general pots for seedling stage - Canna Coco substrate and nutrients - pH and EC/TDS meters - Thermo/Hygro meter
