Week 5 Veg Report: SCROG Netting, Massive Leafs & Precise Data Mastery! 🌱 Girls Growing Stronger Than Ever! 🌱 This week has been truly epic in the grow room—so much so that it’s time to bring in the SCROG net! With the canopy expanding and the younger ones still working to catch up, the SCROG net will help me achieve that perfect, even canopy. A well-placed SCROG not only ensures better light penetration but also gives the smaller plants a chance to spread out and thrive alongside their bigger sisters. Now, let’s dive deep into the SCROG method. The Screen of Green (SCROG) technique is a grower’s secret weapon for maximizing space, light efficiency, and yields. The concept is simple but powerful—train the plants to grow horizontally along the net, forcing them to expose multiple budding sites instead of just a single cola. This way, the canopy spreads evenly, improving light distribution and air circulation throughout the tent. As the plants grow, I’ll gently weave their branches through the screen, ensuring they fill every square inch of space. The end goal? A sea of buds all basking in equal light! 💪 Huge Leafs Everywhere! 🌿 One thing that’s really catching my eye this week is the size of the leaves—they’re HUGE! Honestly, they’re so big I couldn’t resist a little fun, so I made myself some fashion accessories: leaf earrings and a cap from the Super Sativa Seed Club Green Papaya! 😂 And, of course, I captured the moment. But seriously, large leaves at this stage are a great sign of healthy, robust plants. These “solar panels” are hard at work soaking up all the light, driving photosynthesis, and fueling growth. So, what does it mean when your plants are showing off big, luscious leaves? It’s a clear indication that they’re happy, healthy, and thriving in their environment—big leaves mean lots of energy being produced and stored for future bud growth. Exactly what we want! 💧 Precision Feeding with Aptus Nutrients 💧 This week, I took a deep dive into my Aptus nutrient lineup and shared a video explaining how each product affects the water’s pH and TDS. Using the AMP-3 Precision Meter, I’m getting real-time water readings and keeping everything dialed in perfectly. Let’s break it down: • pH: 5.83 • TDS in solution: 445 ppm • Water temperature: 25.2°C The Aptus products are incredible for balancing nutrients without throwing off the pH or TDS too much. I’m fine-tuning my feedings based on these readings to make sure the girls are getting exactly what they need. The precision I’m able to achieve with the AMP-3 is mind-blowing—I get immediate feedback on pH, temperature, and EC, allowing me to make real-time adjustments and ensure the perfect environment for nutrient uptake. 📊 Environmental Mastery Thanks to TrolMaster 📊 Speaking of control—let’s talk about the TrolMaster system! Between the DSH-2U Humidity Station and all the other sensors, I’ve created the perfect environment for my plants. Here’s where we’re at this week: • Temperature: 26.2°C • RH: 70.6% • CO2 levels: 775 ppm • VPD: 1.0 kPa • PPFD: 423 Thanks to TrolMaster, I can monitor and adjust these metrics in real time, and the best part? I can do it all through the TM+ Pro app, even while I’m lounging in my green papaya leaf hat! 😆 Whether I’m checking the CO2 levels, adjusting the lights, or fine-tuning the humidity, it’s all in my hands with just a tap of my phone. Talk about convenience! 🌱 P.S. – Inline Sensors: Heavy-Duty Precision 🌱 Now, let’s talk about the heavy-duty players in this game—the (PCT-2) Heavy Duty Inline EC/Temp Sensor and the (PPH-2) Heavy Duty Inline pH Sensor. These bad boys are connected directly to the AMP-3 Precision Meter, and they’ve been absolutely crucial in giving me the most accurate readings on my water and nutrient solution. The PCT-2 keeps me informed about the electrical conductivity and temperature of my solution, which is key for monitoring how well my plants are absorbing nutrients. Too high or too low, and we’re asking for trouble, but this sensor ensures I’m always in that perfect range. The PPH-2, on the other hand, is all about maintaining the perfect pH balance. A fluctuating pH can mean nutrient lockout or deficiencies, but thanks to this sensor, I get a constant read on my pH levels, so the plants are always in their sweet spot for optimal nutrient absorption. Together, these inline sensors allow me to run a super-tight ship—every drop of water and nutrient is dialed in to perfection, keeping the plants happy and healthy! Shout Outs! As always, huge thanks to TrolMaster and ThinkGrow LED for the amazing gear, to Aptus Holland for their top-notch nutrients and Pro-Mix for the best soil i have used so far.

Sono orgoglioso di poter dire che questa è una delle migliori genetiche che abbia mai coltivato! L unica cosa è stata un po la struttura dei rami un po esili, rispetto all enorme peso delle cime che hanno raggiunto in fioritura, resina in quantità enorme, ma soprattutto a livello terpenico è davvero qualcosa di eccezionale che non fumavo da un sacco di tempo, e forse nn ho mai fumato in vita mia! Ringrazio tutti voi che mi seguite assiduamente è tutto grazie a voi che ora posso produrmi la migliore erba medica del mondo nella mia umile casa, senza dover andare in posti in cui la mia medicina è fornita dalla criminalita organizzata, il mio paese è davvero una tristezza, spero davvero che un giorno le cose cambino anche qua, ma è una speranza vana che succeda nel prossimo immediato futuro... Ma non prendiamoci male in questi discorsi, è fate una buona fumata anche per me, come io farò per voi! Un buon 420 a tutti! 💪😸

Green House Feeded one is moved to the middle and she enjoys her new spot. Advanced Nutrients feeded one is overfed. I will be adjusting the Ph and reduce feeding. Light intensisty is at 90% in 50 cm distance.

Did a light defol on 1. Gonna let the other just go until day 21 of flower. But yeah, these babies been a little struggle. But they’re drying out from their first real pot soaking feed. Another day or 2 and we’re gonna flip! Let’s gooooo!

Day 71: I'm afraid she is foxtailing, maybe due to the high temperatures of the last few days, was impossible managing to maintain the temperatures stables in growing environment. I'm going to water her more often to reduce stress. Day 72: watered with PHD water Day 74: she looks like she is still in full flowering, watered with PHD water. Day 75: she is foxtailing, today I saw more mature pistils than white. Checked the trichomes, looks like she is almost ready. Day 77: watered with PHD water

2nd Week of flower. They looking so much happier much more room and much more space for them to grow up and out. Bottom space is for the 2 Gary Payton and 2 Lava Cake. I will update those dairies as well.

The three are now on 12/12 since 3 days and begin to stretch now. I‘m very exited to see how big they will be going in the next 10 days of so. So far everthing looking fine and very healthy on the plants.

Slow and steady. Used different training methods on each of the 3 plants

Hello All, So the end of week 5 has arrived and the ladies are flourishing. The 1 Gorilla Glue which was late to show signs of flower finally did so on day 33🎉. I gave them all a banana FFJ and humid acid tea on day 32 which they seemed to have responded very well to. I have been slightly defoliating 2 or 3 leaves per plant over the last week inoder to allow more light penetration and hopefully more bud sites will appear. I hope you enjoy the progress and happy growing to you all.

Apple Strudel is finally finishing the stretch. She grew right into the lights of the VGROW so I had to move her into the 24" x 48" x 72" Super closet to finish Flowering. I just did a defoliation and spread her out for better light penetration. Time for her to start packing on some bud! I just update my Grand Daddy Purple diary with dry weight & some pictures. Check it out!!!

I 100% believe this plant only turned out so great was because I added big bud from advanced nutrients this run. I love the stuff I will probably start tring out there other products when I need to replace nutrients as I run out of what I have What a week. It’s been hotter here than in Miami Florida what’s going on with the world it’s broken. Well it’s ok drying buds when the ac blasting is always perfcet

Todo muy tranquilo, estoy bastante conforme con lo que llevo👨‍🌾🍀

Day 29 Wed 12/14/22-Watered today and FIMed plant 3, so now plant 1 has been topped and is getting LST and plant 3 has been FIMed. Plan2 has only been pruned, so now I'll be able to see the difference of these 3 methods. Day 30 Thurs 12/15/22-Just watered today. Day 31 Fri 12/16/22-Feeding day. Added .5 tsp recharge & 4 ml cal-mag to 1 gal water, reduced pH to 6.2, then divided equally, with one quart for each plant, watering-in 1.5 tsp Dr Earth fertilizer mixed with 1/3 c worm castings and 1 c coco coir. Day 32 Sat 12/17/22-Auto watered today with globes because we were out of town for Christmas with my family. Day 33 Sun 12/18/22-Just watered today and did some pruning close to the main stem on lower branches. Day 34 Mon 12/19/22-Just watered today Day 35 Tues 12/20/22-Just watered today

she tolerated the first topping well. i had initially used LST, but have now decided against it and will try FIMing on her. i'm trying to develop a nice bush.

Ну вот и закончился наш короткий путь выращивания сатива-доминантного сорта. К сожалению, размер бокса не позволил полноценно включить лампу, так как растение сильно вытянулось и стало получать световые ожоги, плюс еще сыграл недостаток кальция. Изначально хотел 8 больших, толстых и симметричных колл, но пришлось гнуть дополнительно. На фотографии видно, что все ветки закручены по спирали - это пытался решить проблему сильно низкого освещения. Давно не растил сативный сорт и забыл, что в начале цветения растение ну очень сильно вытягивается. В итоге, из-за LST во время цветения, нижние этажи тоже вытянулись и вместо 8 колл получилось в 3 раза больше. Все-таки мне мой метод больше нравится, чем ML, так как времени уходить меньше, стресса меньше, а результат такой же. Снял 607 грамм больших веток и около 100 грам всякой мелочевки. Немножечко пересушил. Так бы вышло грамм 200 чистых шишек. Придется чуток их увлажнить. Вцелом очень доволен собой и результатом. Спасибо что заглянули и порадовались вместе со мной.

Luego de un par de semanas full trabajo me dediqué a ordenar un poco el jardín, revisar las plantas, reubicar algunas y realizar una respectiva poda de algunas hojas para que llegue luz a todos los brotes. Algunas finalizando la tercera semana de floración, otras en su segunda semana de floración. Está costando mantener los parámetros, ya comenzó la primavera por lo que aumenta la temperatura en mi espacio, pero se está logrando. Se ha aplicado riego de Organic Bloom de B.A.C + Nirvana de Advanced Nutrients a partir de la segunda semana de floración. En dosis bajas para ver cómo andan. Muy fuerte el olor dulce que están dejando todas, luego las revisaré mas detalladamente para especificar un poco los olores de cada plantas. La cantidad de resina es impresionante.

Flushing

I've given her 3 doses of dragon force and will just use filtered water for the next two waterings I am hoping to chop her this week , I need her down to make way for my purple queen. I am sure she is ready to chop now but she is still dark green so I will be patient
