Fungus gnats coming with the soil might take the chance to come out now for breeding. i'm waiting with a 9 mm rifle. in the past i found 6 gnats in 2 of 8 x 50 l biobizz lightmix bags coming out of the soil. i could eliminate every single gnat successfully ;) rotating harvest: the little ones will be harvested completely when ready. at this point only the top branches of the big ones will be cut...and the new (basic-watered) pots of the new grow will move into the tent. 2-3 weeks later the secod half of the big ones will be cut and the second half of the new grow will move in... nutes: biobizz / soil: biobizz lightmix bloom,grow,topmax,activera,algamic + aminopower instead of bio heaven (too expensive) individual feeding schedule/once a week: veg: 200 - 600 ppm bloom: 600 - 900 ppm water: ro-water with: veg: 100-150 ppm calmag bloom: 150 ppm calmag

Just a little bit of bokashi this week. Beautiful! So ready to flip!!!! 👾 2 more days 🤲 - I noticed that the leaves were somewhat drooping and it wasn't due to lack of water. I asked the GPT for help and the advice was to reduce the ppfd. I was going a little over 600 in the center, I thought that since they weren't burnt it was ok, but I realized that there's no point in going over and expecting a good response. Less is more now. Just hold on for a smooth flip for the flora.

This one certainly a lot taller than the rest have levelled out best i can by propping the others on boxes to raise them Little bit of late trimming underneath to help airflow and to avoid rot with it being little cramped Happy with plant so far i guess although i would have preferred it to be more like the others bushier and shorter Not too bad overall though cant wait to see things all fatten up in this second half of flower now

Okay guys, now this has been an eventful week. unfortunately, I can now only visit my plants on the weekend as I am sutying in another city and the plants are at my parents house. That has translated to the little tiny brown leaf I found last week turning into 3 - 4 semi-rotten buds. So yes, catterpillars. Little pesky green catterpillars were the ones eating the leafs and the ones that have now caused some bud rot on my autoflowers. To wich I have decided to do an emergency early harvest as you can see in the pictures above. Trichomes were more or less 10 - 20 % cloudy depending on the bud and some buds also had quite a few amber so they cound't have been that far from harvest anyway. I cut off the buds with rot and the buds nearst to them. luckily it was only 1 or 2 big buds on 2 of the 3 autos I have. The remaining auto is the foxtailing one witch I have not yet harvested and am now debating if I should just do it to not risk getting rot over this week I am away or let her ripen more. The process was cutting off the bad parts, discarding and then cutting off the buds with the stem off the plant. I have never harvested before so I dont know if it is useally done this way but anyway. After the early harvest wich I am sure many would frown upon I did something even morecontroversial and washed the buds in water+backing soda, water+hidrogen peroxide, just water rince and hung them to dry with a fan in front of them for about 2.5hrs. Now I'm a newb so I dont know if this works, but I read and saw a few posts and videos of people doing and explaining this process, and also asked outdoor growers of reddit to see if this is actually a thing, and yes it seems a few if not many people wash their outdoor buds in some way or another. I washed hoping that if there are any caterpillars in the buds that would kill or at least debilitate them.. none floated off while i was washing though.. so now im scared there are still some in my buds and will rot while im drying :( i checked each bud individually trying not to break them up but didnt find any caterpiullar. i only found one while washing the leafs I had trimmed off the plant before harvesting the buds. Anyway, I have bought anti caterpillar and anti fungal spray for tthe photoperiod plants wich seem to be doing okay. A part from some white powdery stuff on the leafs, maybe powdery mildew? Anyone know what can be done for PM ? Anyway, as usual, thanks for your support and comments! sorry for the long post hehe Edit: Totally forgot to mention this.. I think the foxtailing auto has gone hermaphrodite and polinated the other plants (?) I found a little dark ball at the bottom of one of the buds I have harvested, I picked it off because I didnt knoe if it was rot.. A SEED CAME OUT! Yeah.. So now Im thinking my plants have been pollinated by the foxtailer? Does this make sense? xD

Welcome growers First fourteen days of flowering ended for these two BLUEBERRY CHEESECAKE 🍰 The flowers are scattered and are more or less at the same ripeness for each 🌻🌻 Ten days ago the plants were suffering a little and now they show some difficulties.. But that's nothing too worrying ! In these cases there will be "problems" only at the level of final yield.. But I think I saved them in time 🏥 We will see in the coming weeks.. About nutrients 👇 I still giving their always organic/veganic nutrients.. A little bit of silicium (Bionova) / Activator (Biomagno) / Crescita (Biomagno) / Activera (Biobizz) / Grow vegan (Bionova) / The Missing Link (Bionova) / X-Cell (Bionova) / Bioheaven (Biobizz) , a little bit of P-K 3-5 (Bionova) {in spray solution } , Fioritura (Biomagno) and Bloom vegan (Bionova) Like i usually do, a little bit of everything at any watering 💧 And that's all.. See you next 📆 Thanks for stopping by 😎👍👍 FC ✌️ 🇮🇹

Week 4 Last week was good gave the last defoliation for day 21. Adding a higher feed for her. This plant has the least pistil production so I upped the light over it to see if it will help but it also seems like the slowest grower of the plants I’m running still looking good though no deficiency I see Check out my IG for more content @therealterpio & check out my other dairies (Gelato Cake & the new)

SUNDAY 5/19: I accidentally left my UV timer in the "ON" position all night and half of the next day...fearing sudden death, I have moved everybody that was almost ready into the dark tent, including the two Tangies and will start harvesting them tomorrow..maximum UVB stress for about 20 hours...if it works out that they are even more potent than expected without turning brown overnight, I'll claim it was "intentional," and purport it as an "advanced technique" 😉 MONDAY: The both looked fine..no signs of UV damage, so I left them in the dark tent for another day. I'll harvest them both tomorrow and probably wet trim Tina and hang-dry Tanya..she's gonna be a lot of work and I have 5 other plants to harvest as well tomorrow...and I've got to flush several others and water the rest. Both of these plants absolutely WREAK without even molesting them..delightfully dank!😋👍

We are at the beginning of the 9th week of flowering. The trichomes are slowly beginning to change color. I'm now going on vacation for 9 days, I couldn't have planned it any shittier. But anyway, I've decided to keep them growing and then probably harvest them straight after my vacation.
