This week was so mixed with the ladies and the heat issue we had this week. Cherry Bomb seemed to be the only one who didn't care that it got hot the rest have burned leaves from the heat. But they all are bouncing back and should be looking better over the next week.

*Pre-flowers have micro trichomes upon formation, LOL. Based on my early observation, I predict that these will be frosty frosty on the trichomes. Added 20lbs of black lava rock as mulch, raising soil temp around 1 and a half degrees to 72.8F. Some nice little bud formations are creeping up already. Nice little foliar spray of some aminos to the underside of the leaf. Hard to guage or know how much the aminos help, but after reading how energy intensive it is for the plant to make them from scratch its something I feel I need to do as a habit. An EC (Electrical Conductivity) meter, one that's made for the soil, it's so useful, as it indirectly indicates soil moisture as well as salt mineral nutrient levels. Just pop your metre stick in the soil and if ec is low, then it's time to water. Once there is water to assist in the conduction of electricity, the EC" will kick back up. 0.3-1.8, if it stays low, then you know it's time to add more mineral salt ferts! While Electrical Conductivity primarily indicates the overall salt content in soil, pH provides information about the relative proportion of cations (positively charged ions) in the soil's salt capacity. High EC signifies a higher salt concentration, while pH reflects the balance of cations like calcium, magnesium, potassium, ammoniacal nitrogen, sodium, and hydrogen. Smaller leaves have less surface area for stomata to occupy, so the stomata are packed more densely to maintain adequate gas exchange. Smaller leaves might have higher stomatal density to compensate for their smaller size, potentially maximizing carbon uptake and minimizing water loss. Environmental conditions like light intensity and water availability can influence stomatal density, and these factors can affect leaf size as well. Leaf development involves cell division and expansion, and stomatal differentiation is sensitive to these processes. In essence, the smaller leaf size can lead to a higher stomatal density due to the constraints of available space and the need to optimize gas exchange for photosynthesis and transpiration. In the long term, UV-B radiation can lead to more complex changes in stomatal morphology, including effects on both stomatal density and size, potentially impacting carbon sequestration and water use. In essence, UV-B can be a double-edged sword for stomata: It can induce stomatal closure and potentially reduce stomatal size, but it may also trigger an increase in stomatal density as a compensatory mechanism. It is generally more efficient for gas exchange to have smaller leaves with a higher stomatal density, rather than large leaves with lower stomatal density. This is because smaller stomata can facilitate faster gas exchange due to shorter diffusion pathways, even though they may have the same total pore area as fewer, larger stomata Sugars, classified as carbohydrates, are composed of the elements carbon (C), hydrogen (H), and oxygen (O). They are characterized by the general formula (CH2O)n, where 'n' represents the number of carbon atoms. The most basic units of sugars, called monosaccharides, have this ratio of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. For example, glucose and fructose, both monosaccharides, have the formula C6H12O6. The reality of your typical plant. After harvest, with all water remove,d you are left with. (Ballpark) Mother-nutrients: Carbon 47%, Oxygen 43%, Hydrogen 4%. Macro-nutrients: Nitrogen 3%, Phosphorus1%, Potassium1%, Calcium1%, Magnesium0.5%, Sulfur0.5%. Micro-nutrients: All the rest combined 1% Nothing good can happen in a soil that can't breathe. The aerobic zone in soil is crucial. Microorganisms can break down sugars into their constituent atoms, though they don't typically do so completely to the individual elemental level (carbon, hydrogen, oxygen) in one step. Microorganisms utilize sugars through metabolic pathways like glycolysis and fermentation, converting them into simpler molecules like pyruvate and then potentially to other compounds like lactic acid, ethanol, or carbon dioxide, releasing energy in the process. Glycolysis: This is a central pathway where a glucose molecule (a common sugar) is broken down into two molecules of pyruvate. This process generates some ATP (energy) for the cell. Fermentation: If oxygen is limited, some microorganisms can ferment pyruvate, producing various end products like lactic acid (in lactic acid fermentation), ethanol and carbon dioxide (in alcoholic fermentation), or other organic acids. Further Breakdown: The products of glycolysis and fermentation can be further broken down through other metabolic pathways, potentially leading to the release of carbon dioxide and water, and the extraction of more energy. Not Always to Atoms: While some microorganisms can completely oxidize sugars to carbon dioxide and water, releasing all their energy, others may stop at intermediate stages, producing various organic compounds. Role of Enzymes: Microorganisms use specific enzymes to catalyze each step in these breakdown pathways. In summary, while microorganisms don't typically reduce sugars to individual atoms in one go, they break them down into simpler molecules, releasing energy and potentially forming new compounds as part of their metabolism. In conditions of high CO2 concentration, the pH of a solution or system will decrease, becoming more acidic. Conversely, low CO2 concentrations lead to an increase in pH, making the solution more alkaline or basic. This relationship is due to the chemical reactions involving CO2 and water, which produce carbonic acid and influence the concentration of hydrogen ions, ultimately determining the pH

Day 4 - light LST training. This window is very small to Train correctly and not lost any main stems..the knuckle tends to solidify quite quickly and begins to swell if feed properly...making bending by the knuckle risky

This week they did more stretching as you can see the one on the left is into and above the light! I can't believe this but I'll role with it! I slowly defoliate just a little here and there between watering and filling the humidifiers. They really like to eat! Also, something to note that is they love the humidity as well as the warmth. I had to clean the outside of their grow bags this week. To my surprise the roots are starting to come out the bag! I can't believe it but this is awesome! Now they'll die due to contact with the air, and in return get bigger to take in even more nutrients! As predicted they fell off because their little pieces are on the floor. Well I fed and watered them daily. Like normal whenever I fed them either nutrients or soil amendments I made sure to water the plants with plain pH balanced H2O the next day in order to flush them. Then I would do any soil amendments if needed. After that plain pH balanced H20 and then you could do another fertilizer nutrient for them. After that pH balanced H20 and then you return to the soil amendments if needed.

Brought to you by a pair of Mars Hydro SP3000s. Grow on Earth. Grow on Mars. 69 😉 days from seed soak. Veg is done. Sending off to Mars to flower cuz I installed 2 SP3000s in my 2x4 (60x120) tent. Introduced Nectar and have been feeding full strength now. Seems like I have to water every day...1 gallon each of full feed per plant, 18 hours later seems like they are thirsty again..leaves drooping down and perk up after water. I’ll start doing 1.5 gallons and up the nutes....maybe it’s the new lights. Photone says: ~90000 lux in middle, ~70000 on the edges/sides. I think I’m pushing it but it seems my plants are loving it. That’s it for now and thanks for stopping by. Happy growing 🌱🌱🌱

Nothing like a stress free transplant, where the plant don’t need time to recover!! Bokashi Pro-Gro, my home made KNF input Fish Amino Acids (FAA) and rain water that’s all this plant is getting. Organic grow is cost efficient and you’re producing flowers that won’t bring any chemical sh!t into your body.

7/21/21: WEEK 6!!!!! She's looking pretty good and I'm super impressed with how well she has handled the heat, she's doing way better than some sativas we've grown indoors during summer..I think she'll start plumping up this week..we cut growth solution roughly a week ago but she's still pretty dark, I imagine there's a bunch in her media to use up yet.. we noticed a split starting down her main stem so we've released some pressureon the ties and wrappeda plant tie around the base temporarily... we'll update again midweek, thanks for reading and happy growing friends! 🐱❤️💡🌱 7/23/21: hairline split down the main stem has healed already, that's good news... buds are gradually starting to fatten up.. we're still around 85-90f during the day so we may consider reversing our light schedule to run at night but this is something we would do after the GDP is harvested, the other 3 plants in the flower tent are in week 3 and week 1 respectively and would probably deal with the light disruption a little better (just a guess but no sense in rocking the boat this late in flower..ty for reading friends 💓 7/26/21: She's starting to put on some weight 💪😺.. we went camping for the weekend and her buds were noticeably thicker when we returned 2 days later..I uploaded a short video ❤️🐱💡🌱

Semana 11: 24dezembro-30 dezembro Esta semana tive um problema com o temporizador e as plantas ficaram 8h a mais às escuras, mas o problema maior tem sido a humidade alta nestes dias. Parece que a 🦍 está quase pronta para ser colhida. Bom ano para todos.

I am very pleased to be the first to describe the cultivation of the “Kitsune Kush Automatik First Edition” variety from Zamnesia Seeds. The URL of the strain is https://www.zamnesia.com/uk/11404-zamnesia-seeds-kitsune-kush-auto.html?tab=use-points The Kitsune Kush Auto First Edition from Zamnesia Seeds comes in a very beautiful, elaborate packaging. The seeds are in a small glass bottle with a cork stopper. The kitsune cannot be purchased yet, you can only select them in the Zamnesia Tribe program. This makes the Kitsune very exclusive. Day 98: The Kitsune Kush Automatic First Edition from Zamnesia Seeds is entering its final week. She's become a real beauty. The flowers are thick, sticky, and firm, and they smell very sweet. I read somewhere that organically fertilized plants don't need to be flushed, so I'll try it right away. All plants in the apartment received SF nematodes today to combat fungus gnats, and the lacewing larvae to combat tripe and various aphids are hanging exclusively in the cannabis. Day 100: Here are the promised trichome pictures. As expected, there are hardly any clear trichomes left. The day after tomorrow is harvest day. Now I'll tell you where I get my knowledge about the optimal activities for my plants. It's from "Aussaattage from Maria Thun 2025," ISBN number 978-3-928636-80-3, now in issue 63, which is now published by Maria Thun's son Matthias. You can also order it directly from thun minus verlag dot com, it's inexpensive, and it's even available as an app (I don't have it). Unfortunately I don't know if there is an English edition right now. You can ask me, if you have questions about the calender. The Aussaattage are based on the actual planetary events that everything on Earth is exposed to. So if you want to do something good for yourself and your plants, make sure your weed receives the right care at the right time.

Se puede apreciar el cambio a macetas independientes (11lts las dos más vigorosas y la tercera, en una de 5lts). La tercera la tenía en medio de las otras plantas, ya que al estar en una maceta más pequeña, traté de acomodarla a modo de que recibiera más lúmenes (no se logra apreciar en la foto). Como decía anteriormente, no poseo muchos archivos sobre éstas sepas. Y lo que tengo, está enfocado en las otras especies que estaba cultivando. Ojalá sea de su agrado.

Week 8, Things smell heavy🤤 Watered NL's 2L with 0.5ml/L Bloom and 3ml/L Topmax. Sb1 got 2L with 0.5ml/L AlgAMix, 0.5ml/L Bloom and 0.3ml/L Grow. Sb2 got 1.5L same Bloom and AlgAMix. (Day 50) Checked NL 1, give her about 6 days to harvest. Ph was to low on her, did too much Training and bad Environment. Learnd very much, thank you little buddy Waterd NL's 1.5L Water (PH 6.5) Sb got also 1.5L but with 0.5ml/L alg and topmax ( Day 52) very worried about SB 2 Flushed her today, should do this earlyer runoff ph was about 5 Sticky Beast back on track lets call her 👌‍♂️ NL'S trichomes getting more milky, not so far from yielding✂️ (Day 56) gave both Northern lights 1500ml and Sticky beast#1 1000ml Water. Ready for week 9? (Day 57)

Weathers been great, cool nights, but not much rain. Lab Serum has been amazing, zero sign of PM. Did a quick addition of BT as well, did see some caterpillars, nothing major though. Probably still a week or 2 of neem before i'll stop entirely and rely only on lab serum. Her leaves look so shiny and healthy with that lab serum. Shes loosing virtually no leaves, well fed, super impressed with how well this Hugel has kept her happy! Shes full into flower now, but will still be another 5-6 weeks. She's absolutely massive now, i need my ladder daily for inspections, must be nearly 9 feet.
