Week 2 begins for Green Crack and LSD. Both ladies are looking happy and I increased their feed by 1 liter each. Thanks for stopping by growfessors 👽 tune in next week for another episode of growfessor theatre.

What's a penning?

The tropicana cherry is a magnificent plant. Its stocky and stout with really great node space. I love how solid she is and i just see such a good foundation for stretch. A really explosive week of growth. I pushed PPFD up to 310umols. Dimmers are at 60% which is drawing 224w plus 18w of DRRB. I have alos started Emerson effect ... Another The Emerson effect is triggered by the simultaneous exposure of plants to light in the deep red and far-red spectra Deep Red 660 nm /Far-Red 700 nm . A bit of boring science that explains why you need both far red and deep red in order to trigger Emerson. The effect occurs because photosynthesis is driven by two distinct pigment systems working in series:Photosystem II (PSII): Absorbs energy most efficiently at shorter wavelengths (higher frequencies), like 680 nm (441 THz). Photosystem I (PSI): Absorbs energy most efficiently at longer wavelengths (lower frequencies), specifically 700 nm (428 THz). When you provide only the higher frequency (deep red), PSI becomes a bottleneck. When you provide only the lower frequency (far-red), PSII is not sufficiently excited to provide electrons. Providing both frequencies simultaneously allows both systems to work at peak efficiency, resulting in a rate of photosynthesis that is greater than the sum of the two lights used individually. To understand the Emerson Effect, think of photosynthesis not as a single engine, but as a two-stage assembly line. What is the Emerson Effect? Discovered by Robert Emerson in 1957, this phenomenon shows that plants perform photosynthesis much more efficiently when they are hit by two specific types of light at the same time: Deep Red (660 nm) and Far-Red (700+ nm). If you give a plant only Far-Red light, photosynthesis is very slow. If you give it only Deep Red, it's better but still limited. However, when you give it both at once, the total rate of photosynthesis is significantly higher than if you just added the two results together (1+1=3). What is Happening? (The "Assembly Line") Inside the plant's chloroplasts, there are two "workstations" called Photosystem II (PSII) and Photosystem I (PSI). They work in series, meaning the first one must pass "parts" to the second one. PSII (The First Station): This station is tuned to catch Deep Red light (660 nm). It harvests electrons from water. PSI (The Second Station): This station is tuned to catch Far-Red light (700 nm). It takes the electrons from the first station and uses them to create energy (ATP and NADPH). The Problem: If you only provide Deep Red light, the first station works fast, but the second station can't keep up because it isn't being "powered" efficiently by that specific frequency. This creates a traffic jam of electrons. The Solution: By adding Far-Red light, you power up the second station. It now "pulls" the electrons from the first station much faster, clearing the traffic jam and making the whole assembly line run at full speed. The Benefits for The Grow Because i am using the Biotabs water-only method, my plants already have a steady supply of organic nutrients. Implementing the Emerson Effect offers several distinct advantages: Increased Biomass: Because the "engine" is running faster, the plant produces more sugars and carbohydrates, leading to heavier fruits or flowers. Faster Finishing: Plants often reach maturity sooner because they have more surplus energy to complete their life cycle. Better Light Penetration: Far-Red light is very good at passing through the upper leaves. This "wakes up" the lower parts of the plant that would otherwise be shaded, allowing the whole plant to contribute to growth. Enhanced Secondary Metabolites: In many crops, this synergistic light can stimulate the production of terpenes and antioxidants, improving the "quality" (smell, taste, and potency) of the final harvest. The "Sunrise/Sunset" Trick I am using 4x Invisible sun Far red/Deep red bars,they use high-quality Samsung LH351H (660nm Deep Red) and specific Far-Red (730nm) diodes for 10–15 minutes at the start or end of the light cycle. This mimics the natural shift in light at sunrise and sunset, "waking up" the photosystems or signaling the plant to go into "sleep mode" faster, which can further optimize the flowering cycle. Enviromentally i am chasing a VPD of about 1,1kpa. My room seem to sit nicely at lights on at 24c with no real drama and a little help from a 220W greenhouse bar radiator. Its using abot 4kw/h a day atm because my room is attached to the side of my house and its been -5c.. I have had to add some humidity as its also very dry atm. Im aiming for RH of 65% with my 24c but it is more around the 62s.. VPD is crucial and is the focus for this grow for me. The autopots and Biotabs make it so easy ican really just focus on perfect enviroment. A VPD of 1.0–1.2 kPa provides enough "atmospheric pull" to move calcium and magnesium up from the roots, which is critical for the rapid cell division happening now.. Plants will be flipped on Saturday which is their week 5 as im a bit behind.. As this happens i will push PPFD upto 4-500umols. by week 2 of flower. Thats the plan anyway..

Day 17 05/19, welcome to another week of this comparison grow between FoopCanna and Down To Earth. So the two plants getting Foop are growing slow but growing. However, on the other side we got two plants in Down To Earth and both are twice as big. Had to defoliate and do some LST on those two to try and have a even canopy. Day 20 05/22, so almost at the end of the week and the plants are still going. The DTE are by far looking better in my opinion. FoopCanna looks like they might start taking off. Other than that they have all been defoliated and 3/4 have started LST.

Getting stronger and sturdier the bud sites will be very plentiful

Que pasa familia. Noticias buenas y malas, de 3 ejemplares, uno nos salió hermafrodita. Empezó a formar plátanos esta semana y al estar tirándolos en ramas distintas, cortamos por lo sano y ADIÓS. Quedan 2 subimos cantidad de comida, pegaron buen estirón, y las flores están formando sin problema alguno. Dejo muchas imágenes y vídeos de esta semana, y ya deducen ustedes.

Eccoci ragazzi! Una settimana e qualche giorno sono passati, finalmente anche questa ragazza ha buttato le radici in acqua e sta crescendo molto rapidamente, speriamo che nel giro di una settimana sia più o meno grande quanto la sorella e che sia un minimo pronta per essere mandata in fioritura, l acqua verrà cambiata tra circa una settimana per adesso ho aggiunto solo un po di cleance per tenere le radici pulite, per il resto sembra tutto ok, apparte un po di variazioni del ph, ma sono cose normali in Hydro penso.. Dai ci vediamo alla prossima settimana e come sempre ringrazio Terra Aquatica per i nutrienti fenomenali e la loro fiducia, Mars hydro per l attrezzature professionali e Anesia seeds per la genetica davvero che promette molto bene! Un abbraccio a tutti voi e un buon 420 e Natale a tutti voi! 💪🌱🌿🎄🍀🤞😸❤️

Harvest was relatively easy (and very sticky) :) Will try again 😍

Ya en la recta final familia, están apuntito, solo unos días más. Nuestras lemon kush ya recibieron su lavado de raíces , están sin productos ya solo AGUA. Controlamos de todas formas el Ph igual y que no baje por debajo de 6,2. Bestiales estás flores , un olor muy característico con tonalidades cítricas que recuerdan al limón. Todo un clásico en verdad. Estos ejemplares carecen de brazos laterales, son óptimas para un SOG desde semilla, pudiendo llenar 16 plantas en metro cuadrado.

The Strawberry Banana from canuk seeds is still the smallest girl but she is moving along she will not be getting any more toppings but once she gets a little bigger under the medic grow fold 6 then she will be going into flower

Crescendo tudo por aqui!tive que fazer uma super crop para caber aqui e parece que vou ter que fazer outro !AS Meninas estão todas bem cabeludas e tb ficando bastante espesso!polinização nos brotos Inferior esta funcionando ja tem umas sementes! semana que vem tem mais!

Really suffered in the summer with heat waves. Temps in the tent when the lights were on was going as high as 93⁰f (33.88⁰c). The buds have foxtailed as a result and I beleive I had pheno #1 hermy in its final days. 0 seeds found in both phenos so I got lucky. It flew through the veg stage, growing faster than the runtz muffin it was sharing the tent with. Flower period felt fast too, it was looking stacked already in week 5.

Cooled off a bit, trellis has been great! I made it modular so I can just slide it up the supports and she grows. It has really helped develop a nice even canopy and will help with support in the long run. Seen a few ants and aphids, nothing major, may up the Lost Coast sprays to every 5 days. Heavy top dress of homemade screened compost mixed with Gaia Green 70/30 AP/PB. All in all super happy with this strain, very easy, uniform growth. My other 7gallon same time/strain is 2 weeks into flower, but hates being contained, unlike this girl. Love the early flower in a smaller pot with the same strain to really see how she flowers.

Die erste Woche der Blüte beginnt. Habe die Clips entfernt und wir versuchen uns mal mit unserem selbst geknoteten Netz. Mal sehen wie wir damit zurecht kommen. Die Pflanzen erscheinen noch recht klein für die Fläche, gehe aber davon aus, das Netz noch in der ersten Woche fast vollständig zu füllen.

🌱 Semana 3 desde germinación – Ajustes clave. Entramos en la semana 3 desde germinación y esta semana hemos hecho varios cambios importantes para empezar a empujar el crecimiento. 🔹 Riego y fertilización. Esta semana hemos aumentado la cantidad de fertilizantes, subiendo la EC del riego hasta 0.8. Además, hemos cambiado la estrategia de riego: Riegos más cortos y continuos Objetivo: subir la EC del suelo, que estaba bastante baja 📉 EC suelo inicio semana: 0.5 📈 EC suelo final semana 3: 1.2 Este control ha sido posible gracias al sensor 3-en-1 del kit GGS AC5 de Spider Farmer, que nos está facilitando muchísimo el ajuste fino del cultivo. 🔹 Próximos riegos. A partir de ahora, en los siguientes riegos añadiremos Atazyme de Atami a la tabla, para mejorar la actividad radicular y ayudar a asimilar mejor los nutrientes. 🔹 Iluminación y clima. Hemos subido la potencia del LED Spider Farmer SF2000 301H EVO al 75%, lo que ha provocado Un ligero aumento de la temperatura ambiente Mejor intensidad lumínica para esta fase de crecimiento Por ahora las plantas están respondiendo bien a los cambios, con un verde sano y crecimiento constante. Seguimos ajustando poco a poco, sin prisas pero sin pausas 💪🌿

Feeding her regularly as required…I can smell her a mile away on windy days.

i accidently bought some unbuffered coco and mixed it with my ussual earth, had major calmag problems in mid-flower but i´m still pleased with the results...also had a little trouble with mold at the end due to bad weather and high humidity in the final weeks of the grow, had to remove a few buds and harvest early @ day 55 of flower....but there's still alot of great looking buds left for me to enjoy and all look mostly done... Just harvested and hung them upside down, currently drying them at constant 19.5-20.5°C and 50-60% RH..will update as soon as they are dry

Esto sigue creciendo aunque algo menos y floreciendo a buen ritmo. Crecimiento nº1 171 ctms y la nº4 147 ctms Una semana bastante pasada por agua y un final de semana también fresquita.
