👋 Raising the Carbon-to-Nitrogen (C:N) ratio in the growing medium to avoid over-immobilizing nitrogen, on the flip side, being careful not to trigger early autophagy. Moderate, controlled increases in sugar support the energetic demands of flowering and act as a signal trigger, but excess sugar is more likely to inhibit flowering or damage the plant. Balance, like everything else. Visually, when the chloryphyll green gets darker, it is a subtle indicator that the concentration of nitrogen is increasing / more is being stored than is being used. Noticed when you push very high intensity lighting, it slowly fades the green as the plant degrades chloryphyll faster than it can be replenished. When the green of the leaf continually gets darker, it is an indication that the concentration levels of nitrogen are increasing, and I dont want to increase light intensity. Slow down the release of the nitrogen. C:N ratio dictates the rate at which nitrification occurs, if at all. The Carbon-to-Nitrogen (C:N) ratio acts as a critical biological "on/off switch" (or regulator) for nitrogen turnover by determining whether microbes immobilize (consume/tie up) or mineralize (release) nitrogen during the breakdown of organic matter. This ratio regulates microbial activity by defining the balance between available energy (carbon) and building materials (nitrogen). The C:N ratio in a medium acts as a critical regulator of nitrification, effectively functioning as an "on/off" switch for the dominance of either autotrophic nitrifying bacteria or heterotrophic bacteria. The shade of green in chlorophyll is subtly linked to the enzyme Rubisco through a co-evolutionary, functional relationship designed to optimize photosynthesis. Chlorophyll absorbs blue and red light for energy, reflecting green light, a process that ensures the "light-dependent" reactions provide the correct, controlled amount of energy (ATP and NADPH) needed by Rubisco to perform its "light-independent" carbon fixation. Because Rubisco is a relatively inefficient and slow enzyme—often considered the bottleneck of photosynthesis—chlorophyll and the overall structure of the leaf have evolved to manage energy distribution to prevent overwhelming the Calvin cycle. While chlorophyll absorbs mainly red and blue light, it is not perfectly efficient, and leaves appear green because some green light is reflected or transmitted. This reflection allows light to penetrate deeper into the leaf, preventing the surface chloroplasts from becoming overloaded and enabling a more efficient distribution of energy to the high volume of Rubisco located throughout the leaf's mesophyll. The rate of chlorophyll-driven electron transport (light reactions) is matched to the potential rate of carbon fixation (Rubisco activity). If Rubisco were faster, leaves might be darker; however, the "shade of green" represents a balance that prevents chlorophyll from producing more energy than the inefficient Rubisco can process. The green color itself is a byproduct of a photosynthetic system tailored to feed a slow, yet crucial, enzyme (Rubisco) just enough energy to maximize carbon assimilation without inducing excessive oxidative stress or inefficiency. The shade of green in leaves is directly linked to the concentration of chlorophyll, which is in turn strongly correlated with the amount of Rubisco (Ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase) and, consequently, the rate of carbon fixation. Darker green leaves generally indicate a higher concentration of both chlorophyll and Rubisco, signifying greater capacity for photosynthesis. Increase demand for growth or reduce rate of release. I'm looking to keep that nice, healthy green.

Day 61 of flower 🌼 today. On Day 59 I used koolbloom one last time along with a dose of recharge. Going forward I'll only use the Ripen this week and allow the flushing out to continue. Rainbow cake is almost finished and looking great. The listed flower time is 68 days, so we're definitely getting close. The fan leaves are really green still so there's definitely some more flushing needed. Pineapple express is flushing at a faster rate than the other 2 plants. I recon it's the size difference. Flower time is listed at 56 days but it's not showing finished yet. Buds still have a lot of white pistols and a lot of clear tri. Hopefully she'll be good in around 10 days. London mint cake is doing well. Flower time is listed at 60 days. Tri is 50 percent cloudy and 10 days of flushing out will put her ready right on time. Thanks for checking my diary everyone. See ya next week!

Had troubles with accidental herbicide remnants in the neem oil sprayer container. It was while vegging.the plant looked shocked and after 2 weeks she recovered and started flowering Picked all the Charas from the scissors smoked it yesterday (2-10) , effects were relaxed and locked with some creativity0

Supper easy growing , great genetics , a must have in any garden . Im still amazed by all of it, This was just a delight grow, over all everything was great , genetics are among the best i ever grew, litle small and compact plant to what iam use to, but non or less they delivered on the quality, and also they did great on the number hehehe. Defently recomend this Runtz from Zamnezia Seeds, shout out to them, shout out also to Viparspectra and the amazing 200w LED they send me, this P2000 delivers way more of what i was expectic and omg do they love the spectrum , yes they do. Shout out also to AptusHolland since all of this wold b impossible without the best (for me ) nutrients on the market . Growers love to you all, stay tunned i still need to find time to edit the full round time lapse 💚💚💚🙏🙏🙏 as alwaythank you all for reading and taking your time and love with me 💚💚💚.

I can't wait until we have more! This was fun, my only regret is not vegging an extra week or 2 but I chickened out on space lol..thanks as always for dropping by and be sure to check this strain out, it's fabulous!! 😽👌 ~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_

Everything seems to be going great so far! I’m extremely happy with this grow, lots of new trichomes have shown up this week and the smell is still strong. She’s adapted to the change in lighting really well. I’m still removing some excess leaves from time to time to avoid mold growing. Otherwise no problems this week!

Jetzt kommt der langweilige Teil des Grows. Wachstum findet quasi nur noch in den Blüten statt. Veränderungen sieht man wirklich nicht unbedingt Täglich. Es gibt ein letztes mal Bio PK 5-8 als Top Dressing 10ml auf 500ml Wasser

Notfallprotokolle treten in Kraft. Grund? Gelato 41fast UNKONTROLLIERTE GEWALT. Obwohl ich sie einige male sehr zärtlich dazu überredet habe (ok, es knackte einige male) in andere wuchs richtung zu wachsen, nimmt sie ¾ des grow room an platz ein. Und, das ist keine Beschwerde. Sieht von oben fast aus wie ein sea of green (zufall). Und überall, diese watte Bällchen. Ich bin entzückt! Update. Es wird wasser mit Wasser gegossen, welches ich aus einiger Entfernung per Hand aus einem wasserlauf hole.. 😛 Die Phylaxien der Gelato 41 fast sind anders. Heftig. Sind superdick lang und schnell wieder braun. Bud Körper bilden sich und sind hart. Und das überall. Ok tiefer gleich kleiner. Am 001.009.021 wird sie 71 tage alt. 35 in Blüte. And, what the phylaxien! I mean they re unnormal. Never seen phylaxien growing so massive (i mean pls look at one phylaxie., i think theyre big,) and then as FAST they go brown. Boah difficult to explain. I checked the soil. Wet enough. Looking my Gelato 41 FAST. She is everywhere healthy. I read this is a monster genetic But to see, how it grows! This strain is (so far) different from all the others i made with before. First its a photo. (accidently because I'm a idiot) Than 2 weeks untrained growing. Than not vey lovefull i showed her her new grow direction. And the smell. Of Gelato 41 fast is.. The smell of Gelato, 41 fast. Heavy smell on your fingers from everywhere. Steam, sheet,,, buds are becoming sticky. I mean i smell vanilla schololade. My Next noise means she smells like an gelateria. And YES! SHE IS! FAST! GREAT! WORK(till now).👍🏻 👊 I tried to make some defoliation... You wont see on the photos. Just 3 leaves and 8 little buds somewhere i found. O8. Oo9. I cut off 2 side branches. I knewed it before that they will take only energy from the GELATO 41 FAST. But holy mother earth, she got enough of this.POWER! And its me a little ankward, because im the only one till now, who got an growdiary of this FABULOS HEAVY SWEET SMELLING STRAIN! And., the BREEDER SEEDSTOCKER, himself is watching this GROWDIARIE!!! And holy mother earth... Im so a noob. First I thought it was business, advertising. The contact, i mean. Than, after i joined the original website of SEEDSTOCKERS, and i read what i really bought! THE PENNY FALLS.. Its the FLAGSHIP.! ( . So im the advertising? Oh je oh je. I do my best, but remember, please, (and because of some little mistakes i did) . . . OK OK ok ok, big mistakes! It is not the yield another grower can go for it, what i expect i will harvest. But HiGHEST Quality! This is what i expect. And dont get me wrong, I build an joint of some fast dried micro buds. Brought to a friend. After the third time Jonny goes out(because after one or two breathes he forgotten jolly Rogers). He Realized it. "Hey i hold the joint now all the time (15 min). Why don't you say a word?" "I knewed it. But i just smiled. Looking about how long it takes till you notice it!" He thought a few seconds "Longer"… Both began to laugh. So the quality i try will be heaven! DID YOU REMEMBER THE SEED WHEN I FELL IN LOVE? SMARAGDGREEN. 10.09 Everday you can see the buds go with more flesh. And sticky as nothing i had before. Smelly? Yes. It is! It seems that i had an Sativa dominant phenotype Like the leaves form. (and from some fresh harvested i smoked, with 75 % milky trychomes, and the rest clear... 😛 Heavy uplifting, motivated you start to do something! As you start to moving you discover that you re really stoned). And my 0.36 m² tent is from the GELATO 41 FASTer as i never seen any Cannabis so quick blooming, sticky everywhere. ABNORMAL! in a great way. And i think, soo small arent they. Or?

Dutch Passions Shaman Meine Shamaninnnen blühen nun beide und es macht mir einen Riesen Spaß ihnen beim Wachsen zuzuschauen. Bei No. 2 habe ich Vergilbungen festgestellt, ich vermute es liegt an dem zweistündigen Tauchbad nach der Sieben-Tages-Dürre im Topf. Ich hatte sie etwas vergessen, der Schwarzkohlekompost war patschnass. Die regelmäßigeren Trockenphasen, regelmäßigere Wasserversorgung und die Brennessel- und Beinwelljauche, die ich den beiden Anfang letzter Woche gab, sollten aber schon bald Wirkung zeigen. Ebenso das Bittersalz als Magnesium- und Schwefelquelle. Der Topf ist mit 17 Litern einfach viel zu klein für die wüchsige Shamanin. No. 1, die in dem 30 Liter Topf lebt fühlt sich sehr wohl, keine Anzeichen von Stress oder Mangelerscheinungen. Die Bewässerung läuft nicht optimal aber ich versuche nun regelmäßiger nach den beiden zu schauen. Ende der Woche habe ich beiden Damen, vor allem Shamanin No. 1, einige untere Fächerblätter genommen und eine kräftige Entlaubung im Inneren der Pflanzen vorgenommen. Beide bekommen wieder ausreichend Licht, Luft und Liebe. 24 Stunden später sehen sie sichtlich erfrischt und glücklich aus. Der Mulch auf den Töpfen wird unter Hochdruck vom Bodenleben zersetzt, und die Shamaninnen haben schon längst mitbekommen, dass es da oben was leckeres zu naschen gibt. Sie Wurzeln bis in das Laub der Wildkräuter. Danke für‘s vorbeischauen. Bis nächste Woche.

Tag 88: Die Epsilon F1 Automatic von Royal Queen Seeds hat den besten Zeitpunkt zur Ernte erreicht. Blütetag in der Erntezeit. Das verspricht den höchsten Ölgehalt und damit die höchstmögliche Aromaausbeute. Die Buds sind klebrig und sehr hart. Ich versuche die Schöne langsam zu trocknen, ich schalte nur abends für ein paar Stunden den Venti an. Das Nassgewicht ist mit einer Küchenwaage gemessen und nur grob über den Daumen ernst zu nehmen. Schliesslich zählt das Trockene. 🥦 😀

In this week, not a lot has changed. The lady is ripening and starts thickening it's buds. The weather has been bit colder, not a single day above 30°C. She is still packed with enough nutrients. No need to add more , since I can't see any signs of deficiency. Maybe I will add some low level K next week and some calmag, just to be sure.

Yeesh, what a ball drop Circuit Breaker kept tripping. Using 3 450w, co2, exhaust fan, 3 fans. I unplugged the Co2 after 3 days of troubleshooting. Vpd got totally screwed, plants didnt get watered and messed up the steer. Irrigation system clogged(probably from stagnating) Reservoir has buildup of organic material. Think it was caused from Kelp, and microbes being added to the tank A bubbler didn’t help, covering it didn’t help. I did not try “hydrogaurd” I will stop adding organic nutes. I am now watering by dubbing a bucket into the tank and gand waterin Also, no more than 1000w of lighting in a room. I prefer to use a full quality setup with less plants. No Co2 is ridiculous. Each test ive done has shown that co2 gets me heavier yields.

Flowers are coming along nice. Im happy with my new light. Just changed my fertilizer from pre bloom to blooming. Thinking about getting big bud and bud candy.
