I still believe that Banana Kush #2 and Zkittlez are stunted, I wanted to remove those two but i think i will just let them grow out for the experience. I'm really banking on Banana Kush #1 to bring home the bacon.

54DLI @ 12 hours The stem that snapped clean off in week 5, the resulting stress seems to have made a 2ft solid massive cola, probably the biggest individual I've grown, albeit she had signs of stress, and I felt like she was a little behind in the floral development compared to others, but as the rest of the plants start to settle down with packing on mass, the stressed colawas just getting started. Super interesting to see the difference that the snap made to the base of the stem overall, as I know before the snap, they were all the same girth or thereabouts. Neat little lucky accident, maybe I'll try something next grow. Start to cool things off now. YB.

Planta hermosa, de estructura resistente y cogollos rocosos y repletos de resina. Resistente bien el entrenamiento LST y topping, pide bastante alimentos y te recomiendo lavar bien las raíces antes de cosechar si has usado fertilizantes. Los frutos desprenden una fragancia exquisita y muy dulce.

Eine gute Spätsommerwoche geht zu Ende und die nächste kündigt sich an 👍 milde Temperaturen und viel Sonnenschein perfekt zum Beginn der Blüte. Larry und Lemon sind etwas weiter, AK und Banana starten erst. Jeden Tag wird gegossen. Pro Pflanze 1,5 bis 2 l je nach Größe. Es läuft gut 👍 bis nächste Woche ✌️

Wintergrow – kleines Update ❄️🌱 Gestern stand im Zelt tatsächlich mal ein ruhiger Tag an – nichts geschnitten, nichts gebogen, einfach nur beobachten. Der Stretch scheint jetzt so gut wie durch zu sein. Die meisten Pflanzen haben ihre Höhe erreicht und konzentrieren sich jetzt immer mehr auf die Blütenbildung. Man sieht langsam, wie sich überall kleine Budsites entwickeln. Besonders freut mich das ehemalige Sorgenkind im hinteren Bereich. Die hat sich deutlich gefangen und sieht inzwischen wieder deutlich vitaler aus. Mal schauen, wie sie sich in den nächsten Tagen weiter entwickelt – aktuell sieht es auf jeden Fall vielversprechend aus. Die hinteren Pflanzen könnten eventuell noch minimal nachstretchen, aber ich denke, der Großteil des Wachstums ist jetzt abgeschlossen. Jetzt geht es langsam in die Phase, in der die Buds anfangen richtig aufzubauen. Heute wird wieder kurz nach dem Rechten gesehen und dann schauen wir, wie sich das Ganze weiter entwickelt. Wintergrow läuft stabil 🌱

"Mens Dei" What can be made to expand, airy and loose, can also be made to contract, dense and tight. Trichomes do not discriminate, although we like to think of trichomes' primary purpose as being to get us high; they are there to provide photoprotection (sunscreen). Trichomes apply themselves based on area dimensions; the more area = the more trichomes in order to protect. Different from density: Trichomes, the resinous glands on plants, are often produced in response to stress, including high light intensity. This increased production can lead to denser trichome coverage on the plant, stress, stress, stress, stress is the signal. There is a certain beauty in watching the large water-filled buds once swollen to the brim slowly shrink during drying, as the surface areas contract, the trichomes just cluster up to form denser and denser coatings, already dense from high light intensities, UVB exposure, and IPS, and every other stressor I could tweak. Trichomes, the resinous glands on cannabis plants, are often produced in response to various forms of stress. These stresses can be environmental, like excess light(HIL) or UV-B radiation, temperature fluctuations, or drought, or mechanical, such as wind, pruning, or even the weight of the plant's own buds. The plant reacts to these stressors by increasing trichome production as a defensive mechanism to protect itself and its valuable compounds like THC and CBD. In essence, cannabis plants perceive stress as a threat and respond by producing more trichomes as a way to protect themselves and their valuable compounds. Several studies have shown this. Not so much a "master" grower as a master of stress. Psssst. Trichomes fill with "antioxidants," including THC. Ant"ox"idants, The production of antioxidants in plants is intricately linked to their oxidative apparatus. The plant has limited oxidative capacity/apparatus. During daytime photosynthesis, a large percentage of that oxidative capacity is tied up in protecting the plant. During the night, plants alter their metabolic pathways. This leads to a far more focused production of specific antioxidants, like THC. Plants also produce antioxidants during the day to scavenge ROS made from photosynthesis. The differential ROS production by blue and IR light can have significant biological consequences. For example, high levels of ROS induced by blue light can lead to cell damage and death, while lower levels of ROS produced by IR light may be involved in beneficial cellular signaling pathways. Long nights under the IR (very low ROS), the boost in cellular respiration, and the boost in energy production. In a perfect world, I'd give the plant a shock treatment of 60DLI in 4 hours and give her the other 20 hours to perform cellular respiration under IR. The stress of those 4 hours would be rigorous and full of stress abound, 1800-2000ppm CO2 is easy for a couple of hours during daylight, it's maintaining it that's hard, but 4 hours is very doable with nothing but a little extra "carbon sugar" in your medium every other night during the first 4 weeks of flower. In my opinion, you only need to jack CO2 for those first 4 weeks of flower to see maximal output, after that it's all about trichome preservation, everything else comes second. Without the temps to assist with metabolism, CO2 is reduced to normal levels along with temps 4-5th week of flower. Buds are primarily composed of water. Developing flower buds, like other plant tissues, require a significant amount of water for growth and turgor pressure, which helps maintain their structure and firmness. Turgor pressure in plant cells is primarily generated by osmosis, but transpiration plays a crucial role in maintaining it. The optimal internal leaf surface temperature for photosynthesis at 1800-2000ppm CO2 is likely in the upper range of 97°F, meaning ambient would need to sit at 102°F-ish or thereabout for full metabolic utilization. That's putting your transpirational pulling force x5 x6 maybe x7 of what it would be if she were cruising at 68F. "My buds won't fatten, what can I do!!" Crank it. If your purpose was to blow up a balloon as fast as you can, as much as you can, would you use 2x force or x5 Force to do so? Bad analogy, but you get the idea. Kiss. Optimize photosynthesis & VPD by day, cellular respiration by night. TECHNICALLY: "While transpiration and cellular respiration are both ongoing plant processes, they are not neatly separated into day and night. Both processes occur both day and night, though at different rates and with different emphasis. Transpiration, the release of water vapor from plant surfaces, is primarily driven by sunlight and photosynthesis during the day, but it also continues at a lower rate at night. Cellular respiration, which provides energy for the plant, occurs continuously, both day and night. " A leaf can perform cellular respiration and photosynthesis simultaneously. During daylight hours, plant cells utilize both processes: photosynthesis to produce glucose and oxygen, and cellular respiration to break down glucose and release energy for the cell's needs. The products of photosynthesis (glucose and oxygen) are used as reactants in cellular respiration, while the products of cellular respiration (carbon dioxide and water) can be used in photosynthesis. The limiting factor is the oxidative capacity; the less a leaf is utilizing photosynthesis, the less oxidative capacity it uses, and the more it can perform cellular respiration. Even if a leaf is not in an optimal photosynthetic position, it can still utilize respiration to its full capacity during daylight hours. Kinda too much info to explain when some asks if they should defoliate or not, yeah add calmag or some shit. BUT Only 10% ATP can be processed through photosynthesis and carbon capture. 90% of ATP is processed when the plant's oxidative capacity becomes available (NIGHTTIME). Cellular respiration relies on the process of oxidation to generate energy. Specifically, the final stage of cellular respiration, called oxidative phosphorylation, utilizes oxygen as the final electron acceptor to produce a substantial amount of ATP, the cell's primary energy currency. Factors such as oxygen concentration, glucose availability and temperature will all impact the amount of aerobic respiration an organism will perform. See you next grow, *twiddles thumbs*

Sensi Seeds Jack Herer 8 weeks of veg completed 28th Jan 2020 I performed some high stress training techniques (HST) to my Jack herer Girl during the week. Basically I pinched and bent the stems of the longest branches to make them grow horizontally rather than straight up in the air. I did this to keep the canopy reasonably even giving all the potential bud sites an even distribution of sunlight. Hopefully this will eliminate a lot of the "popcorn" small buds and create nice fat colas. We shall see in a few weeks time 😃 She also got a nice big drink of High tea which the plants really seem to love . Overall I am very happy with this plants health and characteristics. Thanks for stopping by 👍👍

Ich binde sie weiter runter,damit sie mehr Fläche einnehmen kann.Sie ist schon recht groß und muss bald aus dem Schrank heraus,da sie so viel Platz weg nimmt.Ich lasse sie für ein paar Tage noch wachsen und dann geht es in die Blüte im endgültigen Zelt. Heute am 5. April habe ich sie auf 12/12 umgestellt.Zuvor nahm ich noch 2 Stecklinge von den untersten Trieben,welche zu wenig Licht bekamen.

Se va terminando el mes de Marzo y ya se cosecharon las Double Cookies, con un riquisimo aroma pero por sobretodas las cosas con una resina muy pagajosa y abundante. Ya se van al secadero Las lebrones las mantenemos un poquito mas pero tambien estan explotadas. Tumbadas por el peso de los propios cogollos.

Diary Plant was given nutrient solution every day when the sun went down in the concentration down bellow -    FloraSeries Gro-->1.8 mL/L -    FloraSeries Micro-->1.2 mL/L -    Flore Series Bloom-->0.6 mL/L -    Calcium solution-->1 mL/L I started with 1L of tap water measured at 240ppm. Then added Calcium fertilizer from gardening store and ppm were around 500. Then Flora series nutrients were mixed in and ppm reading was around 1000. This is to high so I diluted the solution with tap water to 650ppm. I ended up with 2 L of nutrient solution. Day 67 I topped again for the fourth time and did some prunning, plant now has 16 mains. I also did some bending. Firstly I had to build some kind of support where mains would be attached to. I shaped 1 m long steel wire into circle shape, drilled a hole into plastic pot and pushed the 50 cm long wooden stick through it. Then steel wire was zip tied on to wooden stick. Bending was quite easy to do. I used soft rubber wire to attach mains to the steel wire support. I bended in the way that mains were equaly distanced from eachother. Weather report Day 64-67 Weather was sunny, not a single cloud in the sky. Day temperatures were extreme, around 37 °C. Night temperatures were 29 °C Day 68-70 Weather was sunny but the temperatures calmed down a little bit. During the day I measured around 31 °C.

**Encontrarás la traducción a español al final de la descripción** From/Desde: 07/10/19 || To/Hasta: 13/10/19 From day/Desde día: 77 || To day/Hasta día: 83 If you like this week, please hit a like, it costs you nothing! 👊. Thanks in advance 😉! -----WEEK SUMMARY----- The colas have already begun to be well defined this week, as it can be seen. It does not seem that the buds are going to cover from the bottom to the top because there is much space between the middle nodes. I really don't know what this may be due to, probably because of lack of light or by using nutrients in the wrong way. The same happened to me with the Gorillas and Money Makers in my last diary and in that case I attributed it to the failed defoliation I made. This week I begin to detect a deficiency of magnesium in one of the large leaves (or so I think), even so within 2 weeks I do not take precautions because until then it was not obvious to me (serious error). On the other hand this week I started to go hard with the E.C. in the irrigations, I trusted that I was not feeling so bad E.C. sings on Alice and the problems came all at once within 2 weeks. -----WATERING CALENDAR----- 08/10/19 DAY 78 - 3 l with BudCandy, BigBud, Bloom Nutrition & Stimulator, RhinoSkin, B52, Nirvana, Sensyzim & PKBooster @ (2.3 EC | PH 6.4 | 24.8ºc) 11/10/19 DAY 81 - 4 l with Megabud (1 g/l), SilicaPower, Budcandy, BudFactorX, BloomStimulator & (BigBud & BloomNutrition) half dosed @ (2.1 EC | PH 6.3 | 24.5ºc) *****ESPAÑOL***** Por favor, si te gusta esta semana dale un like, no te cuesta nada 👊. ¡Gracias por adelantado 😉! -----SUMARIO SEMANAL----- Esta semana ya se han empezado a definir bien las colas, como se puede observar no parece que los cogollos vayan a cubrir de la parte inferior a la superior pues hay bastante espacio entre los nodos medios. Realmente no se a que puede ser debido esto, probablemente por falta de luz o por estar usando los nutrientes de forma equivocada. Esto mismo me ocurrió con las Gorilas y Money Makers de mi último diario y en ese caso to lo achaqué a la fallida defoliación que realicé. Esta semana empiezo a detectar una deficiencia de magnesio en una de las hojas grandes (o eso creo), aún así hasta dentro de 2 semanas no tomo precauciones pues hasta entonces no se hizo obvio para mí (grave error). Por otro lado esta semana se me empezó a ir la mano con la E.C. en los riegos, me confié en que no la estaba sentando mal tanta E.C. y los problemas vinieron todos de golpe dentro de 2 semanas. -----CALENDARIO DE RIEGO----- 08/10/19 DÍA 78 - 3 l with BudCandy, BigBud, Bloom Nutrition & Stimulator, RhinoSkin, B52, Nirvana, Sensyzim & PKBooster @ (2,3 EC | PH 6,4 | 24,8ºc) 11/10/19 DÍA 81 - 4 l with Megabud (1 g/l), SilicaPower, Budcandy, BudFactorX, BloomStimulator & (BigBud & BloomNutrition) half dosed @ (2,1 EC | PH 6,3 | 24,5ºc)

Day 70 - It takes 5 days for the soil to dry out, with a 2.5 gallon dosage of the above listed nutrients. She has been selectively de-leafed, since the last major defoliation. The goal from now to harvest, is to maximize the light penetration, and airflow throughout the canopy, while sacrificing as few leaves as possible!
