Nothing exciting happened this week. Even the time lapse is boring as it does not show any growth, its almost as if they have gotten into a time warp. The leaves don't seem to be drooping, or really doing anything. This was the last week of nutes as of yesterday I drained and cleaned the water bucket and they are getting straight water now. I see some of the leaves are getting some spots, so I looked that up and it might be they were getting to much nutrients. Well see in the coming how they fair with no nutrients at all. Even though it has continued to be colder here than normal, the room is keeping a good steady temp and humidity. I was hoping the buds would start to get fatter, but that is not happening so far and the smell is still not very prevalent in the room. They are very sticky when touched with a lovely smell on the fingers afterwards. I figure 2 weeks now until harvest with another week or 2 of curing. I purchased a humidifier which will arrive this week just in time to keep the room at the right humidity when they are curing.

They’re loving the heat, even if I am not. They’ve grown substantially within a week. I have been rotating the stem around the stem clockwise to train its strength. Anything else you guys suggest I should consider? Please shoot your advice my way.

Germination went well - 100% success rate. Seedlings look healthy and seems to be growing well/ I'm not able to get air temperature above 18 degrees Celsius during the day cycle but I don't think that will be an issue with this strain.

En esta sexta semana, el cultivo ha entrado en la ventana crítica de maduración bioquímica. Una vez finalizada la consolidación estructural, la planta ha redirigido el flujo de carbono hacia la ruta del ácido mevalónico y la ruta MEP/DOXP, optimizando la síntesis de precursores de cannabinoides y terpenos en los tricomas glandulares capitados-pedunculados. 2. Elicitación y Priming Inmunológico (Evento Crítico) Se ejecutó la tercera y última aplicación de Ácido Salicílico (AS) a una concentración de 100 ppm mediante fertirriego radicular (riego manual único). * Mecanismo de Acción: La aplicación radicular de AS actúa como una señal exógena que mimetiza un ataque de patógenos biotróficos, activando la cascada de señalización de la Resistencia Sistémica Adquirida (SAR). * Respuesta Fisiológica: Esta señalización induce la expresión de genes relacionados con la patogénesis (Proteínas PR) y, colateralmente, sobreestimula la producción de metabolitos secundarios como mecanismo de defensa abiótico. * Objetivo: Maximizar el contenido de resina y compuestos volátiles antes de la fase de lavado, aprovechando el "priming" para fortalecer la pared celular y la densidad de los exudados glandulares. 3. Dinámica Nutricional y Balance Iónico Con la transición hacia la madurez, el manejo de la solución nutritiva se ha ajustado para prevenir antagonismos: * Balance P-K: Se mantiene la intensidad en el aporte de potasio (K^+) para soportar el transporte de fotosintatos (sucrosa) desde las hojas fuente hacia las flores (sumideros). * Control de EC y Dry-backs: Se aplican estrategias de Crop Steering con secados controlados del sustrato de coco para aumentar la presión osmótica, lo cual, en sinergia con la elicitación, favorece el estrés generativo. * Monitoreo: El lixiviado se mantiene bajo vigilancia estrecha para evitar la acumulación de sulfatos y asegurar que el balance entre cationes 4. Gestión Climática y VPD * VPD Óptimo: Se ha mantenido un rango de 1.2 a 1.5 kPa. Este diferencial de presión de vapor permite una transpiración eficiente, asegurando que el flujo masal de Calcio llegue hasta los cálices superiores, evitando necrosis apicales internas. * Temperatura del Agua: El control a 21°C en el tanque de solución madre ha sido fundamental para mantener niveles óptimos de oxígeno disuelto y prevenir el estrés térmico radicular, factor que podría interferir con la señalización de la ruta SAR activada por el AS. 5. Estado Fenológico Visual La morfología observada en los ejemplares muestra una senescencia controlada de estigmas (comenzando la oxidación en un 15-20%) y una arquitectura de cogollo "espigada" pero densa, característica de una alta eficiencia fotosintética y una correcta gestión del DLI (Daily Light Integral). La cobertura de tricomas es profusa, con una turbidez que indica el inicio de la degradación de precursores hacia formas ácidas de fitocannabinoides.

Week 9 - Fourth Week of Flower The Donutz gang is hitting its stride as the fourth week of flower unfolds. Trichomes are developing beautifully, and the plants are entering full production mode. A few challenges cropped up this week, but quick thinking and some DIY ingenuity kept everything on track. Key Updates: Trichome Progress: The resin glands are popping off, with a frosty layer forming across the developing buds. The plants are starting to show their true potential, and the tent is starting to smell. New Fan Installation: The old ventilator tapped out this week, so a replacement was installed to maintain proper airflow. This ensures the plants stay cool and prevents any issues with humidity or stagnant air. Lamp Adjustment: The front-left plant shot up too close to the light, so I had to get creative. I built a DIY solution to raise the lamp higher, ensuring even coverage and preventing light stress. Accident Recovery: During the light adjustment, I initially tried securing the front-left plant with a rubber band. Concerned it might melt, I removed it, but in the process, the main stem got damaged. Thankfully, the plant is a fighter. The main cola is now growing sideways but remains fully healthy and strong. This unexpected twist has added some character to the tent, and the plant is bouncing back beautifully. Observations: Despite the challenges, all plants are thriving, with strong growth and healthy bud development. The sideways-growing cola on the front-left plant is a unique highlight, showing the resilience of the Donutz genetics. Next Steps: Keep monitoring airflow and light height to avoid any further issues. Continue with the nutrient schedule and reverse osmosis (RO) watering to maintain stability. Watch the trichomes closely as they continue to mature, signaling the start of the final phases of flower. The Florida Gang grind is real, and the Donutz are proving their worth week after week. This tent is shaping up to be a legendary grow!

I continued to renew the stakes, every 3-5 days and watered when dry. Btw I don't water every day, more like every 2-4 days, when the soil dries out.

I'm not sure what to do with this plant now, it seems to be more leaf than bud and there doesn't seem to be any coming. it's probably time to cut my losses with this one?

I might check out some other indica dom strains these guys have to offer. I was pleasantly surprised with this strain. These plants grow fast and tall. Responds very good to topping and lst. Great to grow, great to smoke.

Dejo dos VIDEOS del primer mes en las dos carpas!!! Desfrán Auto se ve que no le gusta el ferti, por las hojas dobladas hacia arriba. Solamente las automáticas parece... Cada vez que las riego las hojas se ponen en forma de garra como estresada, asi que voy a utilizar agua solamente. Por cierto el agua que utilizo es agua purificada sin cloro y metales pesados. Ahora me prestaron un medidor de Ph que empiezo a utilizarlo en el segundo mes. También compraré un termohigrometro y voy añadir un ventilador extra. Las demás Red Dragon, Amnesia Lemon #1 y #2, Bubba's Gift y Desfrán Fotoperiódica estoy aplicando Aptus Pro y se ve que les encanta. Le hice poda apical a la Defrán Foto y quiero intentar hacer un Main Lining, porque crecen muy rápido. La voy a tratar de dejar lo más bajo posible. La Bubba's ya va creciendo más, pero en versión "mini". A ver qué onda como les va el segundo mes de vege. La idea es vegetarlas hasta que las Desfrán Auto (3) estén listas para cosechar que supuestamente son 14/15 semanas. Así que tienen tiempo para crecer las demás, sobretodo las Bubba's #1 y #2

Ak ultra-. A pesar de que en las fotos se ven aireados los cogollos, una vez curado, el secado y guardado en sobres bóvedas de humedad. Asentuando el sabor y los terpenos.

The girl is 8 weeks old, there are no photos of the 56th duende, because I went on vacation but left the car watering, the girl is maturing her flowers - they are getting bigger :) which is very encouraging, good luck to everyone.

This big, beautiful healthy girl has switched to flower. Cooler night time temps are yielding some red streaks on her stems. Excited to see what these flowers will look like. She smells fabulous! She was given some Coast of Maine 5-2-4 around her base yesterday, and I have some BT arriving tomorrow to thwart those pesky inchworms.

So, thinking this is the first day of week5, but I’m not sure. 📢🗣️ I think this is ‘flowering’ but I’m not sure; comments to help me define ‘flowering’ would be appreciated, please judge my photos and let me know! 📢🗣️ I made a video of my PH reader and a photo. Comments with help for that would also be appreciated, is the PH really over 9 (my readers max) due to calcium buildup up, or is the humus lombrico giving a false reading? 500 ml distilled water (still trying to flush high calcium buildup from the local water). When the fertilizers arrive I’ll start giving her food: 9/8 200 ml bloom, 60 ml CalMag sup 10/8 250 ml filtered tap water Moved her to a different balcony that gets a little less morning sunlight 🌅 but a lot more afternoon sunlight ☀️ Tightened the first two LST yarns, added 2 more and discovered 2 more bud sites!

It’s the first day of week 7. The nugs are swelling up nice considering what they have been through. They are starting to smell strong. Both plants smell completely different. Even tho they are the same strain and from the same pack of seeds. If you have an idea of what’s going on with my fan leaves let me know.
