Day 30: Hello everyone, everything proceeds as expected, but two plants are slightly behind the other six that already show an advanced flowering. On the thirtieth day from germination the plants are 50 to 70 cm tall. As you can see in the last video now that most of the plants are in advanced bloom I have reduced the oscillation of the lamp. Day 33: In a few days some plants have reached one meter in height, for this reason I moved them trying to create a new SOG. I have also increased the space between the plants in order to give more light to the secondary tops. Oscillation of the lamp further reduced. Water now 10 liters per day for all 12 pots (8 gorillas, 2 advanced cheese and 2 baby cheese). The scent is stronger now, especially when the lamp is turned off. Day 33: I was around and bought in store 5 Seeds Royal Gorilla Auto and 5 seeds Royal Amnesia Auto to prepare the next cycles and they gave me 2 seeds LSA Lemon Haze Auto. The last seed of Royal Cheese has not germinated and I decided to put a seed of this LSA Lemon Haze on the ground. I don't know the LSA seed bank and if someone has cultivated this strain I would like information about it. Day 35: All plants have reached or exceeded one meter in height, so I removed all the supports under the pots and moved all the plants. The flowering is now advanced in the first 6 plants, the two remaining Gorillas and the two large Cheese have now started the flowering phase. Lastly, I removed all the underdeveloped branches and some leaves. The last germinate, the LSA Lemon Haze Auto, is added to my cultivation.

How to Control Stretching: Mastering Cannabis's Growth Push Stretching is a natural growth spurt for cannabis plants, but it is known to affect final yield. We dive into what causes stretching in the first place and how to prevent it from invading your growing space. There is little more irritating than an overloaded grow room. Stretching, the term used to describe the accelerated growth of cannabis stems, is part of the natural process of the vegetative phase and is influenced by plant genetics among other variables. Unfortunately, stretching is a recurring culprit in poor yields and plants that are too long resulting in the wobble of physically unstable crops. Despite the threat it confers, stretching can be controlled by first examining the factors influencing growth and then creating a protocol to accompany these problems step by step. Controlling cannabis stretching requires an understanding of how plants interact with their internal and external environments. WHY DO PLANTS STRETCH? There are many reasons why plants are stretched, one of which revolves around the varieties themselves. Genetics play an essential role in determining the possible height of sativas, indicas and hybrids. While most indica varieties are reared to grow in a smaller and denser way, sativas often undergo significant stretches of up to sometimes almost 2 or more mothers depending on the species. While stretching itself is not harmful, drastic flare-ups on the part of the stems can result in the potential loss of a large crop of between 20% and 30% in total. When thinking about species for your next home growing session, look for the standard size of each variety you are interested in so you can judge whether or not these species undergo drastic stretching during flowering.

Was considering a 20/4 cycle on flowering but after snapping the stem I've brought that in now to try and aid recovery in any way I can. Spotted pistils after a trim to the Strawberry Banana on day 22, thing about to get interesting! Last bits of LST and such for her this week but the Gorilla Cookies still has a bit to go and probably even more after the stem incident ๐Ÿคฆโ€โ™‚๏ธSpeaking of which, little RAM fan gave up this week so I got a bigger one to cool things better but in the process of setting it up I took out a lower branch on the Strawberry Banana, not to bad as it was only a spindly little thing and the space has been utilised to bend some others over giving even more light access. Going to start adding a small amount of bloom to the feed for her now but the Cookies are still on a 10th of the recommended dose but doing well for it spreading out nicely! By the end of the week pistils were really coming out on both girls so a big trim was given and a probable last round of LST to really let the light in! All looks good right now!

๐Ÿ“… D29 - 12/09 ๐Ÿ“œ Entering in the 4th week of vegetation, almost ready for preflowering. Today I made a big defolation and tied up the main branches with LST. Focus strongly on res as it has a strange behavior (EC falling and pH static). If tomorrow will be again like this, I will completely change the water and I will set a lower EC. T and H are now under control. โœ๏ธ 1,3 EC โ™’ 5,5 pH ๐ŸŒŠ 9,5 L (added 1 L) ๐Ÿ“ 9 cm ๐Ÿ“… D30 - 13/09 ๐Ÿ“œ Today I made a big defolation, cutting all the branches not interesting. Sadly I cut also one of main branch by mistake. Too bad, I'm very upset. Added 1,5 L of water with EC = 1,43 and pH = 5,8. โœ๏ธ 1,29 EC โ™’ 5,8 pH ๐ŸŒŠ 10 L (added 1 L) ๐Ÿ“ 9 cm ๐Ÿ“… D31 - 14/09 ๐Ÿ“œ I made some LST in order to cover the space of the broken stem and leave more space to the other branches. Today I not feed her, waiting for tomorrowv to add 1,5 L. Lucy is almost ready for SCROG. I think she will start soon, for sure this week. The res EC and pH seems stable now. T and H are under strict control. โœ๏ธ 1,29 EC โ™’ 5,8 pH ๐ŸŒŠ 10 L (added 1 L) ๐Ÿ“ 9 cm ๐Ÿ“… D32 - 15/09 ๐Ÿ“œ I start ScrOG training today. Tommorow I will change the res as I don't like how pH and EC are moving. pH tester is broken again, I purchase a professional one for a lot of money. I hope this will do his job for long time. โœ๏ธ 1,2 EC โ™’ 6 pH ๐ŸŒŠ 8,5 L (added 1 L) ๐Ÿ“ 11 cm ๐Ÿ“… D33 - 16/09 ๐Ÿ“œ Big News: Lucy starts preflowering. A little bit earlier than my tought but I think I can manage, as she looks great right now. I also changed the res, pushing the EC until 1,45 and turned on the flowering lights.The ScroG Net is working fine, I guess. Update: T is really too high (now near 36 ยฐC) as I turn on the bloom lights. I'm trying to fix the problem in a creative way: I put some dry ice just in front of area injector and T lowered a little. H is in between 70% - 85%. โœ๏ธ 1,4 EC โ™’ 6 pH ๐ŸŒŠ 10 L (new res) ๐Ÿ“ 15 cm ๐Ÿ“… D34 - 17/09 ๐Ÿ“œ Lucy in ple flowering stage and the buds are starting grow very fast. The ScrOG net works good until now. I've some problem with the Temp, cause it's always around 35 ยฐC that is too much.. I need to keep the H in between 75% - 85% to balance such high Temp but it's quite difficult. The reason of such high T is because I turned on the bloom lights. Also, today I had a strange beahavior of pH that is decreasing. Now I fix it on 5,5 but I've to be prepared to change res again. Made also some defolation. โœ๏ธ 1 EC โ™’ 5,6 pH ๐ŸŒŠ 9 L ๐Ÿ“ 15 cm ๐Ÿ“… D35 - 18/09 ๐Ÿ“œ Last day of fouth week and last of vegetation. Today pH gone again down 5,5. I added 1 L. of water with normal nuts, pH+ and also GHE Pro Bloom, raising both pH and EC. I will change the res on monday, as soon as I will have affordable measuring tools. SCroG seems working very well and Lucy looks healty. โœ๏ธ 1 EC โ™’ 5,8 pH ๐ŸŒŠ 9,5 L ๐Ÿ“ 15 cm

๐Ÿ‘จโ€๐Ÿš€๐Ÿ‘‹ This week I start cutting a few lower branches from each plant. This way more energy should be available for the upper branches. For this culture, I would like to let each plant grow with a main bud without "topping". I would like the tent to be filled and look like a Sog in flowering. (a total of 16 plants with 5 strains in this culture) My goal: at least 300g of dry buds๐Ÿคž ------------------------------------------------------------ ๐Ÿ’งWatering each pot: Day 15 : 0.75 L With a little Bio enhancer ( 0.8grams/L) Day 21 : 0.75 L I use tap water, adjust the ph to around 6 and water ------------------------------------------------------------ ๐Ÿ”ฅโ„๏ธTemperature of the week : Day : 19-23ยฐC (Humidity : 60-75%) Night : 14-17ยฐC ------------------------------------------------------------ ๐ŸคฉEquipment of the week : Light FC3000 Mars hydro. power 95% at 50cm Extractor 6 inch Mars Hydro. power 1/10.

Alright grow cycle, mistakes, improvements, etc... She did stay in veg for too long, her growth was slow and not the best and so she took quite long, next time i'll be there from the beginning so I can take care of her throughout. But her growth is really fun. It is a tall growing sativa with fairly tight noding when trained accordingly, producing long filled colas. The buds grow fairly dense and fluffly but do air out a little when dried. Trichome production was pretty impressive as well as terpene production. She had thrips since her early days but did not seem to mind them at all. I did spray them initially but once flower started I stopped. I believe predatory mites might have been feeding on the pupae in the soil, if that is what this specific species of thrips did, the reason I say that is I could never see adults only larvae. Whatever the case maybe they were there but the population never really increased. Something I did not mention during the grow is that those plants were played music during the days, music that is apparently developed for plants. The 10L pot was WAY too small for a true sustainable living organic and to provide enough space for the plant, that was a mistake, I'd say a 20L would be the bare minimum and still. The bigger the better. The hempy transfer did not hurt the plant and I believe even helped to some extent, BUT, I am still running test on the subject and so can't confirm anything, here are my observations Roots did not colonize the perlite, a little on top and the sides but that was it, I was expecting to see a big root mass in there. I believe hempy are great for salt fert as it hold a soup of nutes where the plant can feed from since the coco only holds very little Whereas in nature most nutrient are in the top soil where the highest amount of decomposition happens, this is where the highest microbial activity happens and so where the plant will find food. Living organic is trying to reproduce nature and so there is no need for the plant's roots to gather at the bottom of the pot. Although it could have potentially provided the plant access to a larger amount of water and possibly more oxygenation of the pot. Those are all theories, please speak up if you have other proofs. In conclusion , unless i get proven otherwise by someone or my latest running experiment , I will not be using hempies again as I believe it brings more complication and issues than a simple fabric pot. The lights, The 600w at the start was good, then I decided to add a 400w...๐Ÿ˜‚ That was completely overkill and not necessary. Waste of electricity. And they started suffering from too much light it seems at some point, I raised the light by a good 30 cm and they were fine. 600 is more than enough. I am happy about how the soil performed but it has room for improvements. As for the watering technique I have been watering large ammount every few days, next time I will be giving constant small amount of water each day and a soak every week or so, I believe the soil might perform better under those conditions. She was also an easy plant to harvest whit her long colas which had very little foliage, I do trim in excess as I like my buds extra clean but the buds are not excessively bushy. The trims were use to make some bubble hash, around 100g of wet trims yielded around 1.5-2g of bubble hash. I did add a negative effect but only because it wouldn't give me a smile otherwise, but to be honnest it barely dries your mouth. The soil is going to be recycled and reused in a next grow. I can't think of anything else at the moment but if you have any question don't hesitate.

5/14 - Coming along well. No noticeable changes to the leaves that seemed impacted by the heat. Still working through the pH damage but seem to have a good line on it and doesn't seem to be continuing to affect the buds. The strain with the purple buds (Plant #1) still continues to fatten up and is only keeping the purple color within the bud and not much on the leaves. The other is really getting some fat buds - much fatter than the purple strain. Noticing some slight foxtail on the bud closest to the light, so I might raise the light and dial back the intensity some if need be.
