FLOWER WEEK 8: Late Bloom Ripening & Heavy Stacking | AK-47 XL
🌿 FLOWERING PROGRESS
We have advanced into Week 8 of the flowering phase, and the AK-47 XL is deep in her final ripening stage. The plant has successfully navigated the peak of the summer heat and is now putting all of its remaining energy into swelling and resin production.
The colas across the Scrog net have become remarkably thick and heavy, showing massive structural density. The trichome coverage has expanded even further, giving the entire canopy a frosty, glistening silver appearance under the lights. Pistils are increasingly turning amber-orange as the buds mature and harden into solid chunks. The overall health of the canopy remains strong, successfully utilizing the maxed-out nutrient profile to fill out every single top above the screen. 📈
💧 NUTRIENT FEEDING & WATERING
The plant is keeping up a high metabolic pace, effectively absorbing the heavy nutrient doses to maximize the final weight and compact structure of the buds.
Current Feeding Schedule (per Liter):
Bio-Bloom: 4.0 ml/l
Top-Max: 4.0 ml/l
Bio-Grow: 1.0 ml/l
Bio-Heaven: 5.0 ml/l
Acti-Vera: 5.0 ml/l
Calmag: 1.0 ml/l
Parameters (Weekly Averages):
pH: 6.3
Relative Humidity (RH): 58.9% (Good, dropping trend to secure the dense buds)
Temperature: 27.8°C
VPD: 1.54 kPa (Perfect sweet spot for late-stage ripening and metabolic drive)
CO2: 565 ppm
💭 GROWER'S NOTE
👀 Status Report: The environment is looking great for late bloom. Having the weekly average humidity at 58.9% with a steady VPD of 1.54 kPa provides the plant with the exact transpiration drive it needs to pack on weight without stressing the tissue. The maximum feeding of Bio-Heaven and Acti-Vera at 5.0 ml/l each has done wonders to keep the plant vibrant and active through these final weeks. The aroma is incredibly strong and pungent now. We are approaching the finish line, and she looks absolutely legendary! 🚀l km
