Mon: Day 71: Chopped small plant. Day 73: Watered big plant Day 76: Watered with just phd water.

Buds should be dried in the dark, 50% humidity, at 21 degrees

this week was great, the V1 arrived through a lot of logistical nightmares. its the final test before mass production- i will post another dairy for it but please have a look at the pics above. ive created a stylish subtle, modern way to grow 4 plants. this will be great for all levels and will save big on energy and nutrition. you just have to prune, it can even draw water into itself. anbd its 4 plants!!! stick here and youll see it in action. ive decided to change the order in tents. now we have super strong Purple berry Kush with the returned and super strong sweet seeds Sweet cherry pie. so one tent is the strong, and the other tent is now perma auto flower, which serves for additional veg for girls who fall behind their grow peers. hope that makes sense. i think my net is pretty useless other than a visual to plan nodes. i guess the real support will come from placing more plastic rods around the colas and fastening them. hope Christmas was kind to everyone. this oncoming week will be the last week of veg i think for tent two and we flip to flower. thanks for looking.

Si è ripresa alla grande dopo le varie tecniche di potatura e defogliazione 😊 forse pronta per la fase di fioritura?

Just straight water.

My tiny potter is doing pretty good. It is a hard grow with the plant this size. The window for ph error is very small since it dries the potter out in a few hours. It is very root bound, and drainage is very slow. I been feeding 2 to 3 times a day if I get the chance. I got a little nute burn when I increased nutrition a little too early. The twin tops might of gotten too close to the light as it stretched. Regardless it's looking pretty good for a tiny potter. She is bulking now, still under the Mars Hydro FC4800 light. nothing much else to report.

A bit more progress this week.... Top 2" of old soil/perlite mix scraped off and brand new peat compost applied.

Estamos sorprendidos con la vitalidad de esta variedad, es increíble y ademas el buen funcionamiento de la nutrición colombiana a cargo de @c21nutrients

day 15 looking good, had to train a few of the heads, since they wanted to grow into eachother day 18 shes really grown on me!

Heat problems remain... I upgraded the humidifier and installed a air hose from a cooler room...

Es gab noch eine Sprühung mit H2O2 und jetzt der zweite Tag der Blüte.

Tip of the day: Never let an AI try to set nutrient ratios. The plant on the left is yellowing significantly compared to its neighbor, even though they are both on the same feed. Nutrient rates have since been readjusted to try to help the yellowing plant. I may lose some yield, but hopefully, she pushes through. There are five weeks left until the first yield in nearly two years, with another run right behind it: two clones of the same strain, which will complete the perpetual winter cycle. That will be a wrap until October of 2026. Happy growing, everyone!

Week 3 of flower can’t wait to see it at week 7-10

Letzte Blütewoche. Die trichome der Pflanzen sind milchig und werden zum Teil bernsteinfarben. Ich habe die Pflanzen 10 Tage lang mit klarem Wasser gespült. Morgen bekommen sie nochmal 48std. Dunkelheit und dann wird geerntet. Sie riechen sehr stark und kleben extrem.

🌼 Flowering – Week 2 (Days 36–42) 10/18 (Day 36 – Start of Week 5): Watered with the same nutrient solution as last week (2.5 ml/L CalMag + 1.4 ml/L Coco A + 1.4 ml/L Coco B). Not adding PK yet — I’ll wait until the stretch fully ends before introducing it. Measured heights today: tallest = 122 cm, shortest = 61 cm, average = 84 cm. Did not measure runoff this time. 10/19 (Day 37): Average vertical growth today: +4.66 cm, showing the stretch is slowing down. Watered again with the same solution as yesterday. The canopy remains uneven, with clear height differences between phenotypes — I’ll adjust pot heights soon to improve light distribution. Plants look healthy overall, no visible stress or nutrient issues. 10/20 (Day 38): Watered with water + CalMag + AN Micro (micronutrient maintenance day). Adjusted the height of the shorter pots, and now PPFD across the canopy is much more uniform. Average daily growth was +5.33 cm — the defoliation slowed them down briefly, but they’ve regained momentum. The tallest plant is now 132 cm, and I’ve had to raise the lights to their maximum height — any further stretch could become a problem for space. 10/21 (Day 39): Watered with the same nutrient solution as before, increasing total volume to 1.5 L per plant to achieve about 25% runoff. Performed a massive defoliation — foliage density was too high, and the dehumidifier couldn’t keep up with transpiration. Suspect that the excessive stretch was partially due to insufficient light intensity, since readings were only ~360 PPFD when ideal for this stage is 500–600 PPFD. Raised light intensity to 430 PPFD to gradually correct this. 10/22 (Day 40): Same watering as yesterday (1.5 L, ~25% runoff). Runoff: EC 1000, pH 6.6 Plants look strong and are adapting well to the increased light. Tomorrow I’ll introduce PK 13/14 at low dosage to initiate the first phase of bloom boosting. 10/23 (Day 41): Watered with 1.5 L. Introduced 0.3 ml/L PK 13/14 (first light dose) and 0.5 ml/L AN Micro after noticing one plant showing small brown spots between leaf veins (possible early micronutrient deficiency). Runoff: EC 1000, pH 6.6 Plants look stable overall, no visible stress from new additives. 10/24 (Day 42 – End of Week 5): Watered again with the same solution as yesterday. Input/Runoff: EC 1000, pH 6.6 Humidity has been difficult to control — RH stays around 60%, which lowers VPD. Planning to increase airflow and raise temperature slightly to improve VPD levels and moisture evacuation. Week 5 Summary 🌸 Stage: End of stretch and transition to full flower development. 📈 Growth: Height stabilized around 130 cm (tallest). Stretch nearly complete. ⚙️ Feeding: Base mix: 2.5 CalMag + 1.4 A/B (EC 1300). Runoff steady at EC 1000 / pH 6.6, indicating perfect nutrient uptake. Introduced PK 13/14 (0.3 ml/L) and AN Micro (0.5 ml/L) for bloom support. 💧 Watering: 1.5 L with 25–30% runoff per plant. No salt buildup detected. 💡 Lighting: PPFD increased from 360 → 430 µmol/m²/s after noticing under-lighting. Canopy adjusted by raising pots; more uniform distribution achieved. ✂️ Defoliation: Heavy leaf removal on Day 39 to control RH and open airflow. 🌡️ Environment: RH stable around 60%, but VPD slightly low (target ~1.2 kPa). Working to improve air exchange and temperature for better balance. 🌿 Overall health: Strong recovery after defoliation, no new deficiencies or stress. Early bud stacking visible. ➡️ Plan for Week 6 – Flowering Week 3 (Days 43–49) 🎯 Objective: Consolidate flowering, strengthen bud sites, and maintain climate stability. Nutrients: Maintain base feed at EC 1300–1400 µS, pH 5.8 ± 0.1. Increase PK 13/14 slightly to 0.4–0.5 ml/L if no stress appears. Keep AN Micro 0.5 ml/L once per week for micronutrient balance. Environment: Target VPD 1.1–1.3 kPa (temp ~26–27 °C, RH 50–55%). Improve dehumidification and circulation — consider stronger exhaust or intake fan cycles. Lighting: Increase PPFD to 500-600 µmol/m²/s. Monitor for any light stress at canopy level (tallest plants close to the lamp). Defoliation: No more heavy pruning — just remove large leaves shading bud sites. Observation: Track bud swelling and trichome development. Watch humidity closely during night cycles to avoid mold risk.

Auto Maxi Gom is starting to flower more heavily now. She has been growing well. Everything has been really stable, and doing great. 🤞🏻 she keeps up the rhythm she is in and produces some dense frosty colas. Nothing else to report at the moment.
