Her leaves are grow-ing! She has the most leaves of all the babies. She's definitely ready to soak up all that light. She's not getting much taller very quickly but growing more horizontally. She'll be staying indoors with me.

I'm absolutely thrilled to share my with you as I see my Cosmos F1 from Royal Queen Seeds enter the first week of flowering. Let me tell you, this CBD strain has exceeded my expectations in every way! First off, can we talk about how big she's gotten? I'm amazed at the growth spurt during the vegetative stage. I've been bending the leaves gently to promote an even canopy and ensure that every bud site gets enough light. She's looking so healthy and vibrant, and it just fills my heart with joy. As for nutrient boosters, I've started incorporating some key products from Aptus Holland into my feeding regimen. I've added extra phosphorus (P) to support flower development, as well as a topbooster to enhance essential oil production. These supplements are designed to optimize plant health and yield, and I've already noticed a difference in the overall vigor of my Cosmos F1 since I started using them. Now, let's talk about the importance of the pre-flowering stage. This is a critical period in the cannabis life cycle, as it sets the stage for the upcoming flowering phase. During pre-flowering, the plant undergoes hormonal changes that trigger the transition from vegetative growth to flower production. It's crucial to provide the right conditions and nutrients during this stage to ensure a successful flowering phase. One of the main reasons why I started using nutrient boosters during the pre-flowering stage is to help my Cosmos F1 build up the necessary resources for flower production. The extra phosphorus promotes strong bud development and enhances the plant's ability to produce flowers, while the topbooster stimulates that plus essential oil production, which contributes to the overall potency and aroma of the buds. Moreover, using nutrient boosters during the pre-flowering stage can help prevent nutrient deficiencies and ensure that the plant has all the nutrients it needs for optimal growth. This is especially important during the transition to flowering, as the plant's nutrient requirements change, and deficiencies can negatively impact flower development and yield. In conclusion, the pre-flowering stage is a crucial time for cannabis plants, and using nutrient boosters like extra phosphorus and topbooster from Aptus Holland can greatly support your plant's health and development during this critical period. I'm absolutely loving the results I'm seeing in my Cosmos F1, and I can't wait to see her bloom into a beautiful CBD-rich harvest.

12/9: Fed today...I feel better and my plants are looking better....whew! 12/10: Will switch to 12/12 tonight. and turn on the extra reds. Will also begin UVB stressing immediately. 12/11: Flipped to flower. 12/12: Fed today and sprayed with boom boom spray and axiom harpin proteins. I also added a tablespoon of Happy Frog Cavern Culture to the pots before watering it in. Got the DIY CO2 generator going with a fresh batch of sugar and yeast. 12/16: Fed today. Good week in the garden...plants are looking great...stretching has commenced.

Place your seat backs and try tables in their upright and locked position Mexican Airlines is prepared for take off!!!👍 She's bursting at the seams and in pre-flowering stretch (does pre-flowering count as flowering or vegetation?). Gave her some recharge over the weekend and she LOVED it, major growth within 24 hours. I'm doing my first LST with her and not really sure what I am doing, but it looks good to me. Feel free to comment with any suggestions.

Después del cambio de solución y con el agregado del h2o2, explotaron... los nutrientes siguen estables y madida que pasan los días mejora el PH, en el cuarto día de la semana noto que han consumido +o- 7 u 8 ltrs de agua. Por ser mi primer cultivo creo que de momento va todo bien. Todavía los olores están controlados. Pero si siguen creciendo así no se como llegarán al fin de la floración, no me queda mucho margen para mover los led. Termino la semana con un PH ideal, nivel de EC en 1,7 y agregué nutrientes a la solución.. consumen mucha agua o se evapora...Y con a triste noticia del mas grande de todos los tiempos! AD10s DIEGO!

Day 28 - Full watering/feed to run-off 10%-20% at same strength as previous. (50% of maker recommended strength for coco use + cmx + root enhancer + kept extract organic additive) Day 31 - Decided lower lights by around 30cm 120cm to about 90cm. After about 8 hours the plants all suddenty wilted. They stay wilted through the night cycle as well, so I raised the lights back to where they were and they have bounced back, so I won't suddenly drop the lights by as much. If I do lower them it will be incremental. Day 32 - Bought a six fin 800w oil heater for the tent. Am going to place this under the oscillating fan and set it aiming to keep the tent around the 25-27c range. Hopefully this has the tent sorted for the rest of the grow. The humidity has been high lately due to the weather, so this might be about the only factor left to address, and I will look at getting a dehumidifier for the grow room if needed. Day 33 - Full watering to run-off 10%-20% at same strength as previous. (50% of maker recommended strength for coco use + cmx + root enhancer + kept extract organic additive) - Ordered humidity controller for extractor fan. - Ordered Temperature controller for Heater - Ordered IP Camera for remote monitoring Tent is now running fully sealed and using passive inlet and carbon filtered extraction to roof space. Plants are around 20-40cm high and the lights are 85cm above the canopy on full 480w. Day 33 - I have reduced the Light intensity from 480w to 420w. This seemed to really get a good response from the plants. I think as they've grown taller and the light intensity has quietly increased at the newly heightened canopy level the plants have been getting stressed. Day 34 - I've reduced then light intensity from 420w to 280w. I am new to the quantum boards and the concept of "too much light" so working out how much intensity, how much distance and so forth for the different stages of plants growth. I have a gut feeling 280w at 80cm might be a touch under-powered but I'll give it a full light-cycle or two to judge leaf growth and colour and make a call on whether or not to increase it or leave it as is. Day 35 - I found plants wilting during hthe night cycle without fan air circulation. So I've set the oscillating fan to run during night hours. Day 35 - I've turned up the heater a touch to bring the tent temp to around 26c. Infrared gun shows leaf temps to be around 24-25c which ideally I want to get to 27-29c - I'll aim for this metric once the other environmental factors are sorted (ventilation seems sorted so mainly just dialing in the light intensity). * I'm looking forward to setting up the heater on temperature controller, and putting the carbon filter ventilation on humidity control, and then mounting an IP camera in the tent. This should all be here in around 2 weeks. I'm looking forward to being able to view the temp/humidity and see the plants live without having to actually open the grow room. * The infrared temp gun is proving invaluable in testing leaf, coco and pot temperatures around the tent, which is giving a great view of how the heat from the heater/fan arrangement is being distributed - it shows a less than 1-2c degree variance across the tent which is just great. * Hopefully week 6 to come will be one with a lot less wilting incidents and the week that this tent achieves a somewhat final and stable environment optimised for plant growth and happiness. But so far every time I think I've got things perfected, another variable comes into play and I need to tweak something. Maybe by the end of this harvest I will have the whole process refined to a smoother less reactionary process.

@F42: Watered today and everything is looking good, plants were super thirsty and the pots are feeling much heavier again. Looks good so far, think that the buds are gonna chunk up a lot these next few weeks. Very excited about the quickly approaching bulk. Continue to bend the larger fan leaves to the sides to help the lower buds get light. Update @F46: Getting very aromatic in the tent, nugs are looking super frosty and my hands get really sticky after touching them. Soil is still damp, but the pots weight is getting a bit lighter again. 3 more days till the next watering. Update@ F48- Week 6 of flower is done and has it ever been a good one, the plants are doing so much better than I ever could have imagined for my first grow. Starting to research the best time to start my flush. Was planning on harvesting around mid february, so that means I have just three weeks to go before they get chopped and hung to dry for a week.

Battling with spider mites at this stage. I am trying to keep them at bay using different methods. Neem oil spray, garlic and mint spray, pain water sprays. I also fed some fungal tea I brewed for 72 hours.

Second week of flower and I defoliated again. There are small bud sites starting to form at the end of week two flower. The apple fritter has fascination which is making the stems grow interestingly with lots of bud sites.

Week 1 flowering for the Motorbreath from super sativa seeds club. All good so far, we gave organic nutrients and some extra calmag with amino and some silica. We also continue with master root. Looking nice and green. Small little buds are starting to appear 🤗
