So heres my germination method. Soak/shake seeds in 3% h202 solution for a few minutes and let sit until tiny bubbles form on seed coat. Rinsed in clean rain water. Then placed in HPO's GREEN-SUPREME used as seed soak solution. With a small amount of ANTI-MATTER for enzymes. Soaked 12hrs (mostly I just soak a few hrs) Straight into Gro-Dirt Super Starter soil. Watered seeds in gently with diluted DARK-MATTER solution to get the mycorrhizal species attached as soon as possible. Once they came up, 18-24hrs later, sprayed gently with a mix of GREEN-SUPREME & RHIZO-MOJO Just a small pinch of both in a 1ltr spray bottle. All this was done in a dark warm place on a heat mat. In a humidity dome. Happy growing friends

my dry and cure style is this: 4 days of hanging upside down to get water activity lower to around 0.6 in 50% humidity and 26 C temp (i know its a little high but we are in a hot summer right now and i cant get it lower even with air conditioner) and then after 4 days of drying i remove leaves and stalks, trim buds and move them to jar for the rest of their life :D . and in the first 4 days of curing i open the jar door and let hem get some fresh air in the jar for about 5 minutes and close the jar door again, after 4 days of curing like that buds are smokable but they will get better as they getting cured about 1 month. buds are one of the hardest as fucking rocks type of buds! very dense , compact , sticky , smelly , amazing at every aspect growing stage was 60 days and flowering stage was 70 days total (harvested tops at day 63th) the total weight of dry buds was : top buds 174 G + lower buds 55 G = 229 G my overview of strain with details: the seeds: unfortunately i only got 1 seed cracked out of 5 so i will not know how much this genetic can get different but at least i got the chance to grow once of this wonderful strain the plant : in every stage you can ensure that you are dealing with a high level plant , she will get big so you have to control her height LST and SCROG highly recommended , will grow very well with tick stalks and big fan leaves , has good resistance for stress and will respond very well to stress trainings , she really has gorilla power in herself , fresh buds on plant : buds are very compact and dense even from start , fresh blossoms smells like pineapple and mango , 2 different shades of sweet smells like you hold 2 junks of pineapple and mango in your hand and you smell them together, she is a trichome and resin factory , very very sticky , very oily , strong smell dried buds: very compact and dense , hard as rocks , has dark colors with purple hues inside it , it smells sweet smoke : very smooth and sweet like lollipop , pineapple , mango like , after 2 minutes it'll kick in and you'll get higher and higher with every breath , has a strange and especial high mind high mostly

So I'm seeing some yellow tips, also on the new growth and I'm a little surprised because I'm not feeding that much tbh...at least I think I'm not.... reading up a bit, not sure if its nute burn or something else... got some cal-mag anyway , seeing i'll need it soon.. Tthe Northern Lights is going up like crazy! it has a completely different 'build' to it, much wider and distances then the more compact Diesel. Held off on the feeding, just distilled water ...but maybe 'll just switch to tap water, leaving it outside for a night or two...no more root booster....seems a little redundant.

La planta aun está en pleno estirón del inicio de la floración, por lo que tengo que ir cropeandola casi a diario para mantener una altura homogénea en las ramas y que no se estire demasiado. Están comenzando a formarse los primeros brotes, aun no tiene un olor intenso pero ya huele a haze y eso es maravilloso... aun le quedan meses de floración pero ya tengo ganas de fumarmela.

Man p4 is coming on strong after knocking of the longstanding p1 Queen of the crop. Crazy, I thought plant 3 was goin to be lucky to survive and she kicks booty! Another video up there 12 days in December cuts off about an hour ago. I have to say this week went pretty uneventful other than getting everything potted into their final 3ga pots. I'm trying to get the plants up to around 12" before flipping but getting anxious about it. If plant 3 wasn't so dang little I'd probably had flipped the ladies already... But they're still a bit short. I'm finding overcoming impatience is the biggest lesson I'm learning. Below is the transcribed daily notes you can find in the images above: 12/24 Measurements good, 3 still looking slow. 12/25 (Fed w/) 2 tsp/ga Big Bloom / 2 tsp/ga Grow Big 1/4 tsp/ga Clean kelp. Trimmed suckers off p2 repotted #3 1225 ppm tds, 4.43 ph out. 12/26 Humidifier wonky, got soil warming up to transplant but think maybe wait as soil still a little moist. Trimmed suckers off 4, rinsed all w/ph balanced H2O. 12/27 Humidifier ran out 12/ 28 Repotted 1/2/4 fed w 2tsp ga grow big/big bloom, 1/4 tsp clean kelp. trimmed 2x suckers off 1 b4 I thought about stress f/ potting. 1295 TDS ppm 12/29 trimmed 2 browning suckers f/ P3 12/30 cut low brances/suckers messed up leaves/babvies on P2

En esta sexta semana, el cultivo ha entrado en la ventana crítica de maduración bioquímica. Una vez finalizada la consolidación estructural, la planta ha redirigido el flujo de carbono hacia la ruta del ácido mevalónico y la ruta MEP/DOXP, optimizando la síntesis de precursores de cannabinoides y terpenos en los tricomas glandulares capitados-pedunculados. 2. Elicitación y Priming Inmunológico (Evento Crítico) Se ejecutó la tercera y última aplicación de Ácido Salicílico (AS) a una concentración de 100 ppm mediante fertirriego radicular (riego manual único). * Mecanismo de Acción: La aplicación radicular de AS actúa como una señal exógena que mimetiza un ataque de patógenos biotróficos, activando la cascada de señalización de la Resistencia Sistémica Adquirida (SAR). * Respuesta Fisiológica: Esta señalización induce la expresión de genes relacionados con la patogénesis (Proteínas PR) y, colateralmente, sobreestimula la producción de metabolitos secundarios como mecanismo de defensa abiótico. * Objetivo: Maximizar el contenido de resina y compuestos volátiles antes de la fase de lavado, aprovechando el "priming" para fortalecer la pared celular y la densidad de los exudados glandulares. 3. Dinámica Nutricional y Balance Iónico Con la transición hacia la madurez, el manejo de la solución nutritiva se ha ajustado para prevenir antagonismos: * Balance P-K: Se mantiene la intensidad en el aporte de potasio (K^+) para soportar el transporte de fotosintatos (sucrosa) desde las hojas fuente hacia las flores (sumideros). * Control de EC y Dry-backs: Se aplican estrategias de Crop Steering con secados controlados del sustrato de coco para aumentar la presión osmótica, lo cual, en sinergia con la elicitación, favorece el estrés generativo. * Monitoreo: El lixiviado se mantiene bajo vigilancia estrecha para evitar la acumulación de sulfatos y asegurar que el balance entre cationes 4. Gestión Climática y VPD * VPD Óptimo: Se ha mantenido un rango de 1.2 a 1.5 kPa. Este diferencial de presión de vapor permite una transpiración eficiente, asegurando que el flujo masal de Calcio llegue hasta los cálices superiores, evitando necrosis apicales internas. * Temperatura del Agua: El control a 21°C en el tanque de solución madre ha sido fundamental para mantener niveles óptimos de oxígeno disuelto y prevenir el estrés térmico radicular, factor que podría interferir con la señalización de la ruta SAR activada por el AS. 5. Estado Fenológico Visual La morfología observada en los ejemplares muestra una senescencia controlada de estigmas (comenzando la oxidación en un 15-20%) y una arquitectura de cogollo "espigada" pero densa, característica de una alta eficiencia fotosintética y una correcta gestión del DLI (Daily Light Integral). La cobertura de tricomas es profusa, con una turbidez que indica el inicio de la degradación de precursores hacia formas ácidas de fitocannabinoides.

Blue cheese auto day 77 couple of mistakes made first off my two middle shoots stretched out too much during the stretch phase and didn’t seem to be developing at the same rate of the rest of the plant I bent the two tallest tops over breaking one and then not keeping them down they where back up the next day I didn’t want to stress the plant anymore so I left it I then got a light meter and noticed the light was too intense so I have turned the light down now, still some decant looking buds on it and the tops are starting to mature started flushing on Monday the 18th july 90 litres of water ph to 6.5 through my 40litre pot until my ppm runoff was down to 198ppm I will be harvesting in the next two weeks, swipe to the end for video

16/5/22: Week 3: VD15 for both. AN stands a little taller. But she comes of enzymes and TP goes on them this week, following their guidelines as far as when to give them the nutrients but I'm far of giving their recommend dose. 15.5 CM for AN GROW & 14cm for TP GROW. Both have been put into the 150x150x220 homebox and I have my 70x70x160 inside my big tent, this will allow me to keep the RH high in that tent while the photos veg and autos will be in full bloom. 17/5/22 both girls were topped above the 5th node. 18/5/22 Figuring out how VPD works. You could read for hours about this stuff and still not dial it in for years. But here's the basics. VPD 0.4-0.8 kpa for early seedling. So under or around 23c and around 50-60 RH. atm my VPD is 1.05kpa and for most of my plants the optimal range is .8-1.1 kpa. Temp is 80 F 25C and RH is 70%. To find the perfect VPD (Vapor Pressure Deficit)check out optimal ranges of VPD for growing stages, also your strain should have the optimal VPD. I don't have an infrared temp to check the LVPD (Leaf Vapor Pressure Deficit) that's a whole other ball game. Im not going to get too boged down at the moment with VPD&kpa. As I said that's in a whole other league. Im going to run a basic VPD environment though. In heavy flower my temp will defo be in the 26-28 range as I'll have the 20L dehuimifier in my 5x5x7. 22/5/22 Solid growth coming from these 2 ladies. 15+ cm growth in a week is great. Hopefully I'll get another 4-7 days of growth before they start flowering.

Semana 5 y ya en prefloracion, he usado una enmienda orgánica que contiene muchos minerales y también apliqué lactobacillos, los que ayudan a soludibilizar el fósforo en el sustrato.

Fast buds new originals lineup Sour Diesel auto is beginning its 4th week of flowering today Jan 4th 2020 The two plants are very different in both size shape and structure with plant number 1 being tall and lanky with big internodal spacing whilst Plant 2 is a squat bushy two headed monster 😂 They both have a citrus like smell . Fed only water this week just gone . Thanks for stopping by 👍

Total days above ground: 70 Total flower nights: 31 Vege growth stopped around FD25. Started feeding 1/2 strength fertilizer FD26 (last 6 irrigations including today). Excellent development across the canopy. Tried to get some pictures showing how the colas are stacking up along with a couple shots of terminal buds. Included some photos and videos of irrigation setup, drainage and other half of the tent setup that is not often visible in weekly updates. Also, a video showing the canopy with some grateful dead background music. Last week including progression pictures as they are full size. Kush Mints have been awesome 1 through 4. Great structure, easy to manipulate, and a couple had a nice strong minty smell that keeps changing everyday, so I'm not getting my hopes too high, yet. This stuff evolves over time and what a stem-rub smells like at FD30 isn't always representative of what the finished product will be. Regardless, super happy with the crop, overall. Smell is starting to ratchet up. Bud sites are mostly formed at this point and we will see some noticable ripening by next week's update. Might see a hint of fattening calyxes in the bud pictures this week. 2026-2 starts in 8 days. Will have some Blue Cookies and Pineapple Express from MSNL running along side some Vanilla Creme Pie from HSC. Can't believe winter-2 is already starting. Time is flying by. Breeding cycle is doing well. Will update that when the pollen-receivers join the pollen-donator on a 12/12 light schedule. Side note -- looks like I avoided any issues from accidentally leaving port hole opened about 8 or 9 days ago. I have it marked in notes and will feel 100% confident 2-weeks out from the incident. So far, so good. The lung room is mostly dark and light would have to travel a difficult path to get in the tent, but still mildly concerned about it.

7/7: Transplanted plant to final pot! Roots showed out of tray. Accidentally pulled a root off during transplant 😢. After transplant I top feed/watered medium with a half gallon of treated water. I mixed 2ml of Rapid Start in 1 gallon water hub. Poured half in half gallon jug then poured half gallon over medium. Added 2 gallons of water into reservoir (1st white line) to promote root growth to bottom and to begin capillary reaction. 7/8: Bumped light intensity dimmer to 30%. 7/9: Left for Vacation.... Praying for my baby!🙏🏿 Going to be gone for 4 days. 😅 ***** For this Grow****** “Day Air Temperature” will be the max temp of tent for the week. “Substrate Temperature” will be the average temp of tent for the week. “Night Air Temperature” will be the lowest temp of the tent for the week.

Missing a big portion of info but basically this one is going well, veged under TS1000 at half power (75w) then swapped to a 100w with red, ir and uv spectrums. Topped 3 times to create four colas that branch into each corner of the 60cm² (2ft²) trellis net.
