2nd week of flower almost complete, she’s starting to stretch😅 she’s got all the room in the world above her so she can grow to the sky for all I care, beautiful colours amongst the leaves, the reds, pinks and purples look 💥.. No defoliation, LST or any sort of training this week, Plants being left to just grow naturally from now till harvest. Untill next time👊🏻

Girls are stretching 4-6 inches daily having to bend some to keep them from light burn.I cant believe the pace they are stretching almost double any other strain ive grown .this strain is awsome 5-6 more weeks till harvest

Second week of flowering completed, they are all very beautiful and healthy. I apologize for the poor quality of the photos, I've been very busy lately so I haven't been able to give them much attention. Luckily I automated the watering process, otherwise it would be very difficult days. But completing the initial 21 days, I will do a good defoliation and take photos of them separately. Peace be with you all!✌️🙏

Happy days my friends 😏 I'm going into the flush periode so I'm thinking one liter with 1 ml flawless finish after 5 or 10 minutes another clear 4 liter water and repeating this every day. I'm really curious what is the best finish, so how is your opinion about that ??? And yea she had a beatifull week and the buds are nice and fat 😶‍🌫️🤤 so lets finish her up ✌️👽🤤🤤

Thank you. Gave her a cocktail to help with stress. Added 1st net for lateral support, not so much now, but for later. Blue light is absorbed by photoreceptor proteins called phototropins, which trigger a hormonal response that causes cells on the shaded side to elongate, making the plant bend toward the light. Try and fill this side a little. She is quite big already, just needs to find her stride again after the undue torture. 5 apex stems with 20-30 mini cola, let them develop a little, with the apical dominance shattered, all those 20-30 will all compete with each other as soon as that stretch is initiated. Key to a good stretch is making sure the plant is cycling efficiently, with large ATP conversions occurring lights out. For now, I'm keeping light intensity high. A plant will slow its vertical growth in very high light intensities, leading to a more compact form with thicker stems and leaves. This response is a protective mechanism against light stress, which can damage the photosynthetic apparatus and lead to symptoms like leaf scorching, yellowing, and brittleness. Instead of growing taller, the plant invests its energy into creating a more robust, stress-tolerant structure. Providing plants with necessary antioxidants helps protect the photosynthetic apparatus by scavenging reactive oxygen species (ROS) that cause damage from excess light. UV light exposure can impact the xanthophyll cycle by either enhancing its photoprotective role or causing damage, depending on the intensity and type of UV radiation. UV exposure can trigger the synthesis of more xanthophyll cycle pigments to increase the plant's capacity to dissipate excess energy, but it can also cause direct damage, particularly to Photosystem II, and may lead to a decrease in the de-epoxidation state (DEPS ratio) which indicates a reduced capacity to dissipate excess energy. Plants can respond to UV stress by increasing the synthesis of xanthophyll cycle pigments, such as violaxanthin and zeaxanthin, to improve their photoprotective capacity. UV-induced changes in xanthophyll cycle pigments can be linked to a plant's overall tolerance to high radiation stress. The xanthophyll cycle helps protect against photoinhibition, which is especially important when the plant is exposed to high levels of both UV and visible light. High doses of UV radiation can directly damage photosynthetic components, including the proteins, lipids, and pigments in the thylakoid membranes. Exposure to UV radiation can have a mixed effect on the de-epoxidation state (DEPS ratio) of the xanthophyll cycle pigments. In some cases, UV can inhibit the conversion of violaxanthin to zeaxanthin, resulting in a lower DEPS ratio and a reduced capacity for energy dissipation. However, the total pool of xanthophyll cycle pigments may increase, and this enhanced pool size could provide a greater potential for photoprotection despite a lower DEPS ratio. The xanthophyll cycle works alongside other mechanisms, such as the accumulation of flavonoids (UV screens), to protect the plant from UV-induced damage. Blue light repairs 100% UV-induced damage in plants through a process called photoreactivation, which uses a light-dependent enzyme called photolyase. This enzyme uses energy from blue and UV-A light to directly reverse the damaging pyrimidine dimers in the DNA caused by UV-B radiation, a key mechanism for maintaining the plant's genetic integrity. After carbon, light, water, temperature, and nutrients, the limiting factor of a plant's growth is often its own internal factors or the amount of a key ingredient. Chlorophyll concentration is one such factor, as the amount of this pigment limits how much light can be captured for photosynthesis. Other factors include chloroplast number, respiration rate, and the concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, as plants are often in a CO2-deficient condition. 60x60x18=64800seconds x 700 = 45,360,000moles. 45DLI Exposure to 165 µW/cm² of ultraviolet-B (UV-B) light for 3600 seconds = 1 hour, a extremely high, acute dose triggering stress responses and protective mechanisms. . The plant's photoreceptor protein, UVR8, senses the UV-B radiation. This triggers a signaling cascade that activates specific genes to protect the plant from damage. In response to the UV-B signal, the plant ramps up the biosynthesis of protective compounds like flavonoids, phenolic acids, and anthocyanins. These compounds absorb UV radiation and accumulate in the epidermal layers of leaves to shield inner photosynthetic tissues. The plant may increase leaf thickness or deposit more cuticular wax, creating a physical barrier to the radiation. The plant will produce more enzymatic and non-enzymatic antioxidants to neutralize the reactive oxygen species (ROS) produced by the UV-B radiation. The plant activates enzymes, including photolyases, to repair DNA damage caused by the UV-B. These repair mechanisms are critical for preventing permanent genetic mutations. While protective measures are activated, a high dose delivered over a short period can cause stress that overwhelms the plant's defenses. Photosynthesis is highly sensitive to UV-B. A high dose can inactivate Photosystem II (PSII), damage thylakoid membranes within the chloroplasts, and reduce chlorophyll content, which lowers the plant's overall photosynthetic capacity. Despite repair mechanisms, high UV-B doses can inflict persistent damage on the plant's DNA. One study found that acute, high-dose UV-B had a greater effect on genome stability than chronic, low-dose exposure. The overproduction of reactive oxygen species can cause oxidative stress, leading to the oxidation of lipids and proteins and disrupting cellular function.

Day 49 Since the last update, the plant has only shown very slow signs of recovery. There’s a bit of fresh growth appearing in the center, but overall it remains weak and far behind expectations. The leaves are still drooping, though not quite as badly as a week ago. The pale green color persists, with some areas still edging toward yellow. This shows the roots are still struggling and nutrient uptake is limited. The heavy topping has given the plant a wide, flat structure with many bud sites, but at the moment it can’t take advantage of that shape. The potential is there, but growth is stalled by the stress it’s under. Watering has been kept very cautious — smaller amounts with longer breaks to avoid waterlogging. The medium was allowed to dry out thoroughly before watering again this time. Even so, the plant seems to be putting most of its energy into recovery rather than active growth. Compared to the other plants, this one looks “stuck.” Because of that, my expectations have shifted — I now see it more as a learning project. The new strains I started alongside are doing much better and give me confidence for this run overall. For now, the focus is still the same: no extra stress, no experiments — just steady care, patience, and time

Hello Diary. Here we are at the end of the seventh week, the fourth week of flowering. My Mimosas grew above 110 cm and stopped growing in height. Given the 180cm height of the grow-box, any plants that grow above 100cm are too tall for my conditions at the Farm. For the lights I use Migro 200+, Led lights, whose recommendation is to be about 35 cm away from the plants. If the plant grows above 100 cm, then the distance from the lamps is less than 35 cm. Although I haven’t noticed it hurts them if they’re closer, I’d love it to be 35cm as determined. Mimosa # 1 has reached 111cm, and looks really nice. The leaves are healthy in a beautiful dark green color. The flowers themselves, as I wrote before, do not fill and do not grow as usual. When I compare it to Mimosa # 2, they look like two different strains. We’ll see how it develops to the end but I don’t think any miracle will happen. Although the flowers are sticky, covered with trichomes and a pleasant growing scent, this is not it. Mimosa # 2 reached 118 cm, bringing it from the lowest plant to the position of the tallest plant on the Farm. Not as branched as Mimosa # 1, I directed the lower branches outwards with the help of bending clips to get as much light as possible. The flowers fill well unlike her sister Mimosa # 2. Since it is the tallest plant, the distance from the light is less than recommended but for now I don’t see that bothering it. At Mimosa # 2, I spotted a visitor, the black ladybug (Chilocorus renipustulatus Scriba). I went to read what was written about her and decided to leave her at the Farm as a protector. I also gave them some food this week, I added an Easy Bloom Booster tablet and I added BioBizz on two occasions. I stopped adding CalMg since the plants show no signs of a deficiency of these minerals. The temperature is in line with the summer months, slightly higher than ideal. Humidity is satisfactory, around 50%. Here's what the week looked like. 28/06/2021 - Day 44. Watering. I lowered p.H. at 6.3 and added one Easy Bloom Booster tablet to a total of 8 liters of water. With that amount I watered all three plants that are on the Farm. Temp / Humidity on the farm - 29 degrees and 49% humidity. 30/06/2021 - Day 46. Watering. This time I added BioBizz. I added 8 liters of water Alg-a-Mic - 10 ml BioGrow - 15 ml Top Max - 7 ml Bio Bloom - 10 ml I adjusted p.H to 6.4 and with that amount I watered all three plants evenly. Temp / Humidity on the farm - 32 degrees and 38% humidity. 02/07/2021 - Day 48. Watering. p.H I adjusted to 6.2 and added Bio Bloom 2ml / lit, Top Max 1 ml / lit and Alg-a-Mic 1.5 ml / lit. Temp / Humidity on the farm - 29 degrees and 47% humidity. 03/07/2021 - Day 49. Photography. Temp / Humidity on the farm - 29 degrees and 48% humidity. Mimosa # 1 - 111 cm Mimosa # 2 - 118 cm Well, that's all for this week, see you soon.

AVT is coming along nicely. Especially considering the abuse I put her through a few weeks ago. Buds are developing nicely and starting to get frosty 😃. I kind of dig the bonsai'ish shape she has near the top due to my over HST'ing. There will be no more abuse to this girl, only some defoliation as needed. AVT is front-left in the group pics.
