06/08/22 welcome to week 13. Changed nutrient water PH 6.15 TDS 760. Plant is growing very well. Hopefully contained calcium deficiency. No new spots on leaves. The smell is ridiculously strong. Maybe that's because I need new filter but it seems stronger than usual. With warmer weather I can now vent outside anyway. 06/09/22 PH 6.20 TDS 813 06/10/22 PH 6.20 TDS 820 06/11/22 PH 6.11 TDS 800 06/12/22 PH 6.05 TDS 820 06/13/22 PH 6.17 TDS 760 06/14/22 PH 6.15 TDS 820

Plants with more direct UV showed much more purple across all 3 plants. The data shows that the number of terpenes in dried Cannabis flowers increases with a “No Red” light treatment for the final three days of production. Based upon these findings, we feel confident in recommending a spectrum control program that eliminates red light output from fixtures for the final 72 hours of the Cannabis flowering cycle. Terpenes are aromatic compounds that give cannabis some of its most distinct aromas from citrus and berry, to more earthy tones. Many species of plants produce and emit terpenes in a diurnal, or daily cycle that is regulated by a complex web of signaling. There are also many plants that emit terpenes at night to attract nocturnal pollinators (Marinho et al., 2014346). Regardless of when the terpenes are produced or emitted, these processes are often dependent upon cues derived from natural light/dark cycles via a native circadian clock (Dudareva et al., 2004). Several light-sensitive pigments are involved in these processes of production and emission, and the different photoreceptors are dependent upon different wavelengths of light to be activated or deactivated. Emission of terpenes is a process that is entirely dependent upon phytochromes and red/far-red light cues in most plant species (Flores and Doskey, 2015). For example, repeated light/dark phytochrome signaling is necessary for the emission of terpenes in tobacco plants (Roeder et al., 2007). Based on previous findings, we hypothesized that a lack of red light and phytochrome-mediated light/dark signaling on the part of the plant is responsible for an increase in terpene content in cannabis. The plant continues to synthesize terpenes, but a lack of red light to trigger the Pr-Pfr shift results in a lack of terpene emission by the plant, thus causing the terpenes to accumulate in the maturing flowers.

Plant Mol Biol 65: 107-12 Abstract Sound waves technology has been applied to different plants. It has been found that sound waves were at different frequencies, sound pressure levels (SPLs), exposure periods, and distances from the source of sound influence plant growth. Experiments have been conducted in the open field and under greenhouse growing conditions with different levels of audible sound frequencies and sound pressure levels. Sound waves at 1 kHz and 100 dB for 1 h within a distance of 0.20 m could significantly promote the division and cell wall fluidity of callus cells and also significantly enhance the activity of protective enzymes and endogenous hormones. Sound waves stimulation could increase the plant plasma-membrane H+-ATPase activity, the contents of soluble sugar, soluble protein, and amylase activity of callus. Moreover, sound waves could increase the content of RNA and the level of transcription. Stress-induced genes could switch on under sound stimulation. Sound waves at 0.1–1 kHz and SPL of (70±5) dB for 3 h from plant acoustic frequency technology (PAFT) generator within a distance ranged from 30 to 60 m every other day significantly increased the yield of sweet pepper, cucumber and tomato by 30.05, 37.1 and 13.2%, respectively. Furthermore, the yield of lettuce, spinach, cotton, rice, and wheat were increased by 19.6, 22.7, 11.4, 5.7, and 17.0%, respectively. Sound waves may also strengthen plant immune systems. It has been proved that spider mite, aphids, gray mold, late blight and virus disease of tomatoes in the greenhouses decreased by 6.0, 8.0, 9.0, 11.0, and 8.0%, respectively, and the sheath blight of rice was reduced by 50%. This paper provides an overview of literature for the effects of sound waves on various growth parameters of plant at different growth stages. https://doi.org/10.1016/S2095-3119(13)60492-X

Starting to see some more amber, but minimal amounts. Definitely seeing the trichomes turning milkier though. Might end up cutting the plant down in half, maybe a week and a half tops, she's been going for sooo damn long. It's day 119 and we decided we're gonna take it down this weekend, the 19th of February will mark the 17th week since it first sprouted, so what better time to chop! We're also going to go the fridge dry method and then cure in Grove bags, hoping for some real nice smelling buds after all this.

🌸 Week 12 From Seed — Week 8 Flower Permanent Marker — Two Phenos, One Epic JourneyWelcome back to the garden, my friends. If you’re just joining the diary now — don’t worry. Here’s a quick recap so you know exactly how we got here: 🌱 Quick Recap From Seed to Now – Two Permanent Marker phenos grew from seed into two completely different personalities: • Pheno #1 — “Aiming for the Moon”: a tower of beauty, stretching past 2 meters, expressive, colorful, loud. • Pheno #2 — “The Compact Queen”: sturdy, dense, bushy, disciplined, with deep greens and beautiful structure. – Both were grown in Aptus organic super soil style, with minimal liquid inputs — just Regulator, Top Booster, and the occasional CalMag. – From week 3 of flower onward, we saw the divergence: stretch vs compactness, height vs density, color vs deep green gloss. – Conditions were challenging (hot summer, fluctuating humidity), but with airflow, careful irrigation, and inner canopy lighting, the garden thrived. – Now we arrive at week 8 flower — the week where everything becomes obvious. The structure, the scent, the resin… this is where Permanent Marker starts telling her story. 🌿 Week 8 Flower — The Week of Truth This is an important week. One of those weeks where the plant stops building and starts finishing. 💥 Bulking Mode Activated Both phenos are packing on weight — visibly, daily. The buds are: – swelling – stacking – becoming denser – pushing calyxes outward – and bathing in trichomes The flower-room smell is now borderline illegal — loud, sticky, sharp, with that signature Permanent Marker funk rising stronger day by day. 🎨 Colors Coming Alive Our tall mama — the one reaching for the moon — is showing magnificent colors: – deep reds – purples – warm fades – cool gradients across sugar leaves This is likely a mix of genetics + low-nutrient organic finish + light intensity + heat swings. A wonderful recipe for anthocyanins to express themselves. ✨ Frost Everywhere Trichomes are exploding on both phenos: – mushroom heads – milky stalks – resin layering onto resin – sugar leaves looking powdered This is the week where terpenoids and flavonoids start reaching their peak volumes — the week where you know harvest is close because the plant smells like she wants to climb into your nose and live there. 🔥 Light Spectrum Love — And the Inner Canopy Glow Let’s give a moment of appreciation to Future of Grow’s Black Series and the ICL inner canopy lighting. These girls are LOVING the spectrum: – deeper penetration – reduced shading – even lower branch development – trichomes forming even in hidden zones – colors enhanced naturally It truly shows what proper spectrum distribution can do — especially late in flower. 🌡️ Conditions — Hot, Humid, and Still Thriving Despite summer conditions trying to sabotage everything: – the plants stayed strong – no PM – no bud rot – no stress signals except the harmless light-tipped albinoing on the top cola of Pheno #1 (beautiful, by the way) This week we maintained: – Temp: high but manageable – Humidity: under control – Airflow: strong and essential – Irrigation: consistent and organic The girls took it all like champions. 🔍 The Final Stretch — What Week 8 Means This is the week where you start to ask the true questions:Are we close? Yes. Very. Is it time to flush? Not on full organic super soil — you simply let the plant finish naturally. One week or two? Depends on trichomes: – Clear → needs time – Milky → soon – Amber → harvest window opens Right now it feels like: 👉 1–2 weeks maximum But she will tell us. We listen. 🏆 Dognabis Cup — The Community Is Alive! People are opening their welcome packs, germinations are popping, and diaries are starting to roll in.

Germination (4-6 to 16-6) Royal Queen Seeds - Haze Berry. Genetics: Blueberry x Shining Silver Haze. 20% THC, 40% Indica, 60% Sativa. 9 to 11 weeks flowering time. Taste: Blueberry, Earthy, Fruity, Pepper. Effect: Long Lasting, Physically Relaxing, Powerful. I chose this strain because i planted one seed a couple of years ago in my yard, it grew very tall (long internodes) and the end product was one of the best tasting weed i smoked till this day. The blueberry taste was far on top! So i decided to try this strain out once again. I'm praying i will have that gem with those terps again! 4-6 Today i put 2 Haze Berry seeds into a wet coffee filter to germinate. 6-6 After 48 hours the 2 seeds are ready to be put into a 0.5L pot filled with some Plagron Lightmix. The lightmix has some nutes for the first 3 weeks or so, i will feed nutes when i transplant them into 18L AutoPots with 70/30 Coco-Perlite. I made a feed with 0.5 gr Calcium and 0.2 ml Rootstimulator per liter. EC: 0.4 PH: 5.8, and watered the pot a bit. I let them stay in the dark untill i see them above the soil. 7-6 After 24 hours they are above the ground and i removed the plastic foil covering the pots. 8-6 Temperature: 19.5 to 24.1 degrees Humidity: 41% to 70% Watering: 20 ml. 9-6 Temperature: 18.8 to 23.4 degrees Humidity: 62% to 74% 10-6 Temperature: 19.4 to 23.9 degrees Humidity: 60% to 74% 11-6 Temperature: 19.4 to 25.2 degrees Humidity: 43% to 71% Watering: 25 ml. 12-6 Temperature: 21.2 to 25.4 degrees Humidity: 44% to 60% 13-6 Temperature: 22.2 to 25.9 degrees Humidity: 44% to 71% Watering: 15 ml. 14-6 Watering: 60 ml. A week later and today is the last day of the germination phase. They are starting to grow faster from now on.

July 12: Tropicana Cookies FF is doing fine. One more week of veg and will start force flowering on July 19. July 13: used barley instead of malted barley a few days ago as a flowering nutrient. Barley is sprouting so i replaced it with malted barley. Malted Barley (malt) is great as a bloom nutrient. Google Clackamas Coot talking about barley and cannabis growing.

Growing with alot of flowers all over the plant might get about 2 ounces out of this plant . Smells a bit pungent I havent added that much ferilizer just the natures organic living soil that cost me about 15 dollars pretty good super soil ill add. Thought about transplanting into a 2 gallon or 3 though the plant has gotten too tall and is needing backbudding in order for the crown to still get light so i cracked it and bent it in order for it to still stick around and get light.

And she is chopped! Very quality buds— easy feeder, and This is an amazingly fast plant! Resin production- ✅ Terps - ✅ Fast - ✅ Quality of flower - ✅ Easy to grow - ✅ I cannot say enough about this lady! Just fed an average amount of nutrients. Vegged a little longer because of flower tent overflow, but once she flipped, she was fast and quality all the way! Dry weight and smoke test to follow! ✌️🏻💚

Herzlich Willkommen zu meinem Growbericht der Membrana Hyper Autofem von VIP Seeds. Die URL für den Strain findet Ihr hier: https://www.vip-seeds.com/membrana Für den Grow verwende ich den großen 15 Liter WideVersion Stofftopf von ROOTIES. Bei meinem ersten Grow mit den ROOTIES kam nur die 9 Liter Version zum Einsatz, da haben die sich gut bewährt. Auch die Smart Start Plugs von Zamnesia werden wieder verwendet, dieses Mal ohne den Samen vorher einzuweichen. Und die Erde und der Dünger von BioBizz findet wieder Verwendung. Tag 51: Die Membrane Hyper Autofem von VIP-Seeds steckt noch immer in der Vegetationsphase.. Schön, dass du dir mein Tagebuch angesehen hast. Bis bald. ✋😎

Day 45 - Found the GC's main branch broken this morning. My error was tying it down too much. Never had plants so big so I'm still learning the best way to LST them in order to fit them in my closet. Takin the broke with philosophy: I never topped a plant, so I'm curious to see how she will develop from now and how much she will yield. Keep growing and learning every day 🙏🏼💪🏼🌱 Day 48 - Ladies are stretching much more every day, going to be two big girls 😋😋😋
