This is going to be a scattered Summer, as I have had enough with plants being stolen from my property 2 years running. So I am sharing Pheno's this summer with Friends and Family, throughout this local area... My seed-gathering hit a spectacular spell this winter, and there are simply not enough years left to grow all of the Treasures I have acquired. And there are some juicy specimens. For the purposes of maximizing a single diary, I am going to check in with and keep a loose running diary on these 8 selected Phenotypes. They are all going to be following a set routine, unlike any previous grows. Pre-loading the soil in the outdoors location will be the Norm, it’s something I have never done. Using specific Soil Amendments and Mulch applications will be new ground for me, as these are all proven and successful steps to take, in producing Nutrient rich Soil and a fully developed plant at harvest. People: I love talking with people here on G.D., such as those right here and many more; DeFharo, LegacyMarketFarm, Roberts, DissNoof, HighRoller909, Ferenc etc. (I know I should have your name right here too lol ) Thanks everybody for the words & assistance in the past and I'm sure you will all hear me Squealing when/if the shit hits the fan. I feel this is already on its way to be a wonderful experience this summer. Mostly this will be grown in the boonies, virgin ground on the edge of a certain Farmers Field, with the Farmers consent. And the path he has cleared for us... Just put the 30+ seeds in water a couple days ago, all the seeds in Dirt within 48 hours of each other. We'll see which ones make it and which ones get replaced... awaiting sprouts to Pop through, I wanted to get this set-up and have it waiting. Sending out Best Wishes to all the Brothers n Sisters getting ready for a Big Summer. - Mar 25th a.m., 21 of 40 have sprouted... by Noon there were 24/40 and the obvious ones with Open leaves... had their first Foliar mist at lights out. Kelp Meal is next to be added to the Foliar. Will wait for a bit more development & participants Mar 26th, Lots of activity overnite as Now, 35 of 40 seeds have broken through Mar 27th - Foliar Mist @ lites-out (a.m.) Foliar pH = 5.9 - transplanting healthy plants into 1 gal pots starting tonight as they are ready - Soil in the 1 gallon Pots will be the existing mix with the agitated addition of Azomite, Kelp Meal, “2 oz of old dried-up weed” and some diluted RapidStart - a week ago today, 33 seeds were put in water. Another 7 were added the next day… its a nice way to wrap up germination-week up. Still a few seeds in that crazy survival mode… alls good though - finishing Germination week tonight by moving this gang into 1 gal pots. - pre-soaked next soil ahead of Transplanting; 1 gal h2o pH 6.3 ~ 36 - 40gal soil - DynoMyco introduced to Bulk Soil and mixed well. Each seedling will have it sprinkled on its roots and into it’s destination pot (1st time using it)

Así cumple su 11va semana de vida y 7ma semana en Floración, esta semana han habido cambios en el jardín ya que al fin pude adquirir un tent, muy contento puesto a que es lo suficientemente espacioso como para meter 6 planta. La Amnesia luce preciosa en el tent, los capullos están bien pesados y llenos de resina, tuve que amarrar los capullos principales dado a que el peso de los mismos se llevaban las ramas para abajo. En esta semana se regó una vez con fertilizantes, en la solución de riego se utilizó: 3ml Flora Gro, 4.5ml Flora Bloom, 3ml Flora Micro y 3ml MagiCal. La solución de riego marcó 515ppm y 6.0 PH.

Nach dem erfolgreichen Topping in der Vorwoche hat die GMO Rootbeer ohne Pause weitergemacht. Da keinerlei Stressanzeichen sichtbar waren, wurde das LST direkt fortgesetzt. Die jungen Spitzen und Seitentriebe ließen sich problemlos weiter in Position bringen, sodass die Pflanze zunehmend eine breite, offene Form annimmt – perfekt für gleichmäßige Lichtverteilung und kräftigen späteren Blütenansatz. Parallel dazu gab es regelmäßige, sanfte Entlaubung. Nur große Fächerblätter, die Licht blockierten oder das LST behinderten, wurden entfernt. Die Pflanze hat auf diese Maßnahmen durchgehend positiv reagiert: keine Hänger, keine hellen Blätter, kein Wachstumsstillstand. Im Gegenteil – sie wirkt extrem vital, treibt schnell nach und zeigt eine kompakte, kräftige Struktur. Ein wichtiger Fokus dieser Woche lag auf der Umgebung: stabile Temperaturen, kontrollierte Luftfeuchtigkeit und keine extremen Schwankungen. Auch die Lichtstärke wurde eng überwacht, um jeglichen Stress oder Bleaching zu vermeiden. Die GMO Rootbeer scheint die Bedingungen optimal aufzunehmen; die Blätter stehen zu jeder Tageszeit sauber nach oben und zeigen dieses typische „Happy-Plant“-Bild. Die Gesamtstruktur ist jetzt breit, flach und sehr gleichmäßig. Genau das, was man vor dem Übergang in die Stretch-Phase erreichen möchte. Sie baut derzeit eine perfekte Grundlage für mehrere gleich starke Tops auf. Woche 5 war insgesamt sehr clean, sehr kontrolliert und extrem effizient – alle Trainingsschritte sitzen, und die Pflanze macht voll mit.

@FAST_BUDS, Hi all the happy people here in GrowDiaries. This is my second cultivation ever and it will be fun to try a bigger space than my closet grow. First, I'm just going to say I'm done with the construction of my new growroom. I put some pictures on the construction here in week one. The room is 2.14 meters by 1.7 meters and has a ceiling height of 2 meters. It provides a floor area of ​​3.6 square meters. I use a 54 Watt Lightwawe T5 for germination and 2 Pcs 400 Watt HPS lamps. I have a channel fan that replaces the room air about 40 times an hour to get a comfortable environment in the room, the air enters a fresh air intake from the outside. The air is purified through a carbon filter to then leave the room to the rest of the basement. Then I use that heat to heat the rest of the basement. I will use 8 pcs 15 liter Autopots to grow with and a 100 liter water tank that supplies the pots of water and nutrition. I will grow completely organically in soil and will watercure my buds to get the best possible medicine for me. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-09-18. Week 5 starts. Added new video. Girl Nr 1 is 46 cm high and Nr 2 is 33 cm. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-09-19. 2 new fans is installed in the grow room. Added pic and video. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-09-20. Kl 10.00. New video. The Nr1 girl is 52 cm high and Nr 2 is 32 cm. Kl 23.00. Did some massive defoliation, added video and pics ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 2017-09-22. The girls have recovered well after my massive defoliation. Girl number 1 is now 56 cm tall and number 2 is 35 cm. They have received 6 liters of water and nutrition today. --------------------------------------------------------------

....Understanding Electrical Conductivity Electrical conductivity measures a material’s ability to transmit electric current, which in the context of gardening, relates to the soil or nutrient solution’s ion content. In simpler terms, EC indicates how salty the environment is around the roots of a plant. This “saltiness” is crucial because it affects the plant’s osmotic pressure, which in turn influences nutrient uptake and overall plant health. The Science Behind EC At its core, EC measures the presence of soluble ions like potassium, calcium, magnesium, and nitrates – all vital nutrients for plant growth. These ions carry electrical charges, and their movement creates an electrical current, detectable as conductivity. High EC levels typically mean a high concentration of dissolved ions, whereas low EC levels indicate fewer nutrients are available. The Impact of Electrical Conductivity on Plant Growth The relationship between EC and plant growth is a delicate balance. Just the right EC level can enhance nutrient uptake, bolster plant health, and increase yields. However, when EC levels stray too far from the optimal range, they can lead to nutrient imbalances, osmotic stress, and even plant death. Nutrient Uptake and EC Levels Plants absorb nutrients from the soil or water through their roots, a process influenced by the surrounding EC levels. Ideal EC levels help create an optimal environment for this exchange, ensuring plants receive the nutrients they need without exerting excessive energy. High EC Levels: A Double-Edged Sword While a certain level of dissolved ions is beneficial, excessively high EC levels can harm plants. High salinity can draw water out of plant cells, leading to dehydration and nutrient lockout – a condition where plants cannot absorb essential nutrients despite their presence. Low EC Levels: Undernourished Gardens Conversely, low EC levels can starve plants of necessary nutrients, stunt growth, and lead to underdeveloped or diseased plants. Maintaining an optimal EC range is crucial for healthy plant development. Measuring and Adjusting Electrical Conductivity Understanding the importance of EC is one thing, but applying this knowledge in the garden or greenhouse requires practical steps. Regular monitoring and adjustment can ensure that plants remain in a conducive growth environment. Tools for Measuring EC Gardeners can use various tools to measure EC, from simple handheld meters to more sophisticated systems integrated into hydroponic setups. Regular monitoring allows for timely adjustments to soil or nutrient solutions, ensuring optimal EC levels. Adjusting EC for Optimal Growth Adjusting EC involves changing the concentration of nutrients in the soil or solution. In hydroponics, this might mean diluting or concentrating the nutrient solution. In soil, amendments may be added or flushed with water to correct EC levels. Practical Applications: EC in Various Growing Environments The application of EC knowledge varies across different growing environments, from traditional soil-based gardens to modern hydroponic systems. Soil Gardening In soil, EC measurements can help diagnose nutrient imbalances and guide fertilization practices. Amending soil with organic matter or flushing with water can adjust EC levels to better support plant growth. Hydroponics and Aquaponics In hydroponic and aquaponic systems, where plants are grown in water-based solutions, maintaining optimal EC levels is crucial for nutrient availability. These systems allow for precise control of EC, directly influencing plant health and yield. Greenhouse Cultivation In greenhouses, EC monitoring can help manage the nutritional status of various plants, ensuring that each receives the right nutrient mix for optimal growth. Automated systems can provide real-time EC adjustments based on plant needs. Navigating Challenges: Overcoming EC-Related Issues While maintaining optimal EC levels can significantly enhance plant growth, gardeners may encounter challenges such as fluctuating conditions, equipment malfunctions, or environmental stresses. Regular monitoring, combined with a solid understanding of each plant’s specific needs, can mitigate these issues. Conclusion: The Conductive Path to Lush Gardens Electrical conductivity, though an invisible factor, is a cornerstone of successful gardening and farming. By understanding and managing EC levels, gardeners and farmers can profoundly influence the health and productivity of their plants. As we continue to explore the nuances of plant growth, the role of EC stands out as a testament to the marriage of science and nature in cultivating life. Whether in soil, water, or air, mastering the art of electrical conductivity can unlock the full potential of our green companions, leading to bountiful harvests and vibrant gardens.

At the end of this week EC is at 3.0 so first thing to do next week there will be reservoir change. All goes well looks like the small POGP plant is maturing so probably about two more weeks for her. I spray them every second day with CannaCure or a hydrogen peroxide solution to be safe from the moldy buds. The SE7000 runs at 550 Watt and about 35cm from the canopy and is doing an astounding job. For anyone who is interested in obtaining this efficient and affordable light fixture here's the link: https://spider-farmer.com/products/spider-farmer-upgraded-se7000-730w-commercial-led-grow-light/ Also i included a unpacking recording of one of the packages Spider Farmer send me for the next grow, If you are interested in buying this 6" exhaust fan with filter here's the link: https://cutt.ly/gwjZIk9r Thank you a lot Spider Farmer you guys rock 💚 That's it friends, I hope to see y'all next week.

Black Strap and Peach Crescendo getting close. I see they will get cut way before the Fat Bastard. Fat Bastard must have a long flowering period. But branch structure is thick. I will get a heavy yield from it. Peach Crescendo has so much frost on it. Ethos fkn rocks! Black Strap smells like baked cookies and gas.

Finished out the grow with Florakleen and a simple plain water swap in the reservoir yesterday. I prefer to hang with all the fans removed so did that before chop.

Most ladies are showing signs of flowering so today I will start counting the weeks. Here u can also see my mutant/special ladies. They germinated a bit different from the others. Day 3 of flower is showing some major progress‼️🙌🏽 I did NOT top any of these mutated plants. I only removed some very ugly growing leaves. So everything u see on them is done by mother nature.
