Day 71 - Starting week 11 today and starting to see a few orange and brown pistils but still plenty of healthy white ones but trichs are still clear with a few milky in there. All looks good and will be ready for some water tomorrow. Day 72 - Nothing new, noticing a bit more pistils shriveling up a bit so I’ll probably give her another week or so and then possibly start flushing her. She did get 2 gallons of plain water today. Day 74 - She’s still chunking up quite a bit and looks like the pistils are finally starting to fade a bit but a ton still nice and healthy. Another day or two and she’ll be ready for some water again. Day 75 - She’s coming down to the end with just a couple weeks left. She needs some water so gave her 2 gallons today and next watering I’ll start the pre-harvest feeding with just MagiCal and SugarDaddy. Day 76 - Nothing new today, just a forest of trees getting fat and stinky. Day 77 - The end of week 11 and still looks like she’s got a good couple weeks left, as of right now. Not gonna give her any nutes and just plain water from here on out.

Jour42 defolliation and LST Jour45 defolliation Jour47 arrosage avec de l'eau ph6.3 à laquelle j'ajoute 1ml par litre d'eau de topmax biobizz La plante entre maintenant en floraison c'est donc le début du stretch Explication en anglais (Stretch explanations more) EXPOSURE TO LIGHT One of the main culprits in abnormal stretching of cannabis plants is the lack of light. Plants that are too far from an adequate light source will respond by accelerating stem growth in order to get closer to the lamp themselves. Especially when there are many other plants. A lack of lighting can easily cause overcrowding in a growing chamber, reducing the steady progression of your crop and the distance ratio between your bulbs and your plants. To address this problem, be sure to provide enough light to your plants to prevent stem growth. At the same time, you should not position your lights too close to your plants either since this would also result in an over-stretching of the stems and in some cases, the loss of your crop. In addition to the distance between the light source and the plant, the type of light you will use also affects the size of the stretching of your crop. The orange and red lights encourage stretching and result in thinner, larger stems. And conversely, blue light stimulates a growth of thicker stems and a smaller size. When a species is ready to enter the vegetative phase and undergo its most drastic stretching period, metal halide lamps can be used to deter far too long stems. THE HEAT Heat is another essential element that can determine the stretch size of your plants during vegetation. Temperatures above 27 degrees push the stems to lengthen more and more and will propel the potential of sativas to push as high as possible. Heat lamps that are positioned too close to plants create an intolerable environment that will grow large, soft plants that will potentially wobble until they fall and lose flowers in its fall. OTHER CAUSES OF STRETCHING There are multiple variables that can lead to the stretching of plants beyond what could normally be expected of the plant. Environmental stressors resulting from transplantation (when a plant passes from one pot to another) can cause the plant to return to shock. This will eventually trigger a reaction causing a stretch. Cannabis plants that are not grown in decent conditions or do not receive enough nutrients will respond in a variety of ways and this includes stretching. Crops that are not spaced far enough apart are likely to stretch to sting the light to other plants. Due to extreme proximity, the plants will fight among themselves to reach the light, forcing them to expand as much as possible throughout the crop. HOW TO CONTROL STRETCHING DURING FLOWERING Stretching during flowering, you guessed it, takes place when you move your plants from the vegetation stage to the flowering stage. This is a completely normal reaction, as your plants are preparing to bear the weight of their heads. Stretching of a plant at the beginning of flowering varies widely; some plants can double in height while others grow only a few centimetres. There are, however, two main variables that can give you at least an idea of how your plants are stretching during flowering, and how much. Here are these two variables: Variety: Genetics has the greatest impact on the size of your plant. In general, sativa varieties stretch more than indicas and tend to develop long, slender stems. Light: Some lights, such as HPS, are more likely to encourage stretching. In addition, great distances between your canopy and your lights will cause the plants to stretch as they try to get closer to the light source. Stretching during flowering usually lasts the first two weeks of the phase. To minimize stretching, keep your lights between 10 (for CFL) and 30 centimetres (for HID) of your canopy. Finally, choose indica varieties if you have a smaller growing space. HOW TO AVOID STRETCHING In many cases, you can expect your cannabis plants to stretch during the flowering phase. Keeping that in mind helps to make a plan in case your species ends up growing much more than you could have imagined. If the information is available, get information on the standard size of your species and compare it to the size of your growing space taking into account the necessary distances between the bulbs and the plants. TRAFFIC While outdoor crop operations benefit from natural air to naturally limit stretching, indoor crops must assume the maintenance of air circulation within a confined space. Basic ventilation is enough to help the cannabis stems strengthen and become thicker rather than too high. In this way, the plants continue to grow vigorously without reaching heights and at the same time, your tolerance ceiling. MANUAL INTERVENTION For growers who want to get their hands dirty, there are physical procedures that can be done to reduce stretching. Similar to the natural effect that the wind has on cannabis plants, manually bending the leaves and stems will cause tiny cracks in the plant's tissues that will cause the plant to focus on regenerating its wounds instead of its vertical growth. THE TOPPING Topping is a form of manual intervention on cannabis to influence its performance, shape or size. In essence, topping is a process in which a new node is cut, growing from the plant to reduce its size and create a "v"-shaped notch that will eventually form two heads. Topping may be an effective measure to combat stretching, but it is important not to do so when the flowering phase begins. In most cases, an abnormal stretch of cannabis plants will not completely destroy your crop. In fact, stretching can indeed help increase your performance. For growers with a growing operation large enough to contain tall plants, stretching can increase the total yield of a species with more vertical space for head formation. In both cases, stretching can easily be planned in advance and there are multiple solutions to help you with this problem which is all too common. May the force be with you 💪

Looking good. Shes stretching like crazy! Showing some more little pistils on some bud sights. I watered her with nutes yesterday night and checked on her today and shes getting a little yellow i know its not light burn because i moved my light up higher the night before just in case. Other than that shes super green and is getting bigger in flower I just realized i did my math wrong and but double the nutes so im gonna water her heavy with some regular water Shes growing more bushy then she is tall. Shes stretched a bit but not to much yet. Im hoping tomorrow they look good. Couldnt get the best pictures cause my camera doesnt have macro

Jan 13th ordered a Dehumidifier today should be here Monday need to get the humidity down for flower I can only get it down to 57% so Hopefully it will work One of the amnesia haze plants have some type of deficiency not sure have brown spots on leaves Got humidity some decent control but I’m sure amnesia haze 1 is dealing with PH issues the PH meter is cheap and I’m sure it’s been off a bit so I’m going to look for new one this week

Got a new light this week, it's basically a HLG 260 R-Spec except locally manufactured using the same Samsung LEDs. Big Mumma got her 60x60cm tent today and will go in there under one Viparspectra 300W blurple (130w from the wall). I trimmed her, super cropped her main stem and added a scrog net in preparation of flowering her in the next couple of days. Because my other plants were getting up past 75cm after 7 days of flower (100cm is my absolute max) , I decided to supercrop the canopy back down to about 60-65cm - it was pretty scary and I definitely broke the outer stem on some of them. Also gave them a good trim. Fortunately most bounced back strong the next day which are the most up-to-date photos you see (17/4/20).

2/2: not much to report. Slow going, but going 2/5 NL: Still have a few weeks to go, but buds are fattening up. Watered with pH balance water as she was given nutrients on last watering. I didn't have high hopes for this plant. Still unsure of the density of the buds.

As said before, I'm incredibly happy that I got to harvest a little bit. Never expected her to make it, but she kind off did! The smell was pungent and sweet like an amnesia haze should be, hoping that will be even better after drying and curing!

She is growing nicely and she has been really easy to grow. The only problem I have been having is humidity issues off and on bc of the weather but I added an extra inline fan. The buds are coming in and im just making sure they fill the scrog out.

Greetings, fellow cultivators! Week 5 in the Pink Rozay saga, and let me tell you, the excitement is reaching new heights. Our girl is not just growing; she's evolving into a verdant masterpiece, filling up the Scrog net like a true champion. It's a sight that warms the heart of any dedicated grower. The addition of the Scrog net has proven to be a game-changer. It's like Pink Rozay decided to become a botanical architect, crafting a masterpiece of greenery. The benefits of a full canopy are becoming increasingly evident. Every inch is utilized, and the plant structure is nothing short of perfection. It's like witnessing nature's artistry unfold before my very eyes. And let's talk about the newest member of the team – the Future Of Grow 600W full spectrum LED. This light is nothing short of amazing. It's like giving Pink Rozay the perfect spotlight to showcase her beauty. The plant structure is thriving under its spectrum, and I can see the promise of lush, dense buds in the near future. The room is bathed in a glow that whispers promises of a bountiful harvest. With the room now so full, I can feel the anticipation building. It's almost time for the delicate dance of defoliation. Soon, I'll be making space for the buds to reach their full potential. It's like preparing the stage for the main act of the botanical ballet – the transition to the flowering stage. The energy in the room is electric, and I can sense the Pink Rozay's readiness to embrace the next phase of her journey. As I prepare to defoliate and flip into flower, I'm reminded of the careful balance in this artful process. It's not just about removing leaves; it's about sculpting the plant to maximize light penetration and airflow, ensuring every bud receives its fair share of energy. It's like pruning the masterpiece to enhance its beauty. (but this is for next week episode stay tuned) This journey has been a testament to the power of patience, care, and understanding the needs of the plant. The Pink Rozay has become more than just a cultivation project; she's a living, breathing work of art. And as we step into the flowering phase, I can't help but feel a sense of pride and gratitude for being a part of this extraordinary journey. As always, a massive shout-out to Aptus Holland for being the backbone of this green adventure, and to Future Of Grow for providing the perfect illumination for Pink Rozay's stage. Stay tuned, fellow growers, as we venture into the enchanting world of flowering. The Pink Rozay saga continues, and I'm thrilled to have you all along for the ride.
