📆 Week 13, 4-10 January 2024 4 January - Turned light time back 2hrs to a schedule of 14/10, and lowered light power to 50%. This will facilitate ripening by mimicking an autumn environment. 7 January - Flushed system, filled with RO water and 10ml p/gal HG FloraKleen, PH 6.2. 10 January - Turned lights off. 📑 This was the final week of flowering. It will be followed now by 3 days in darkness, giving a total of 7 days in plain RO water. This provides the proper nutrient flush and a small cannibinoid/terpene boost just prior to harvest. Which will be 13 January. She will then be followed by a 7-14 day curing process, where she’ll hang for 5-7 days until the chlorophyll has dried in the leaves, then trimmed, weighed, put into mason quart jars and burped until a RH of 62% is reached/maintained. While in this state the flower will reach its peak potency/flavor in about 30-40 days, and can last for 6-12 months. An overall interesting grow. Especially if you like the color purple. She grew rather rapidly for about 6 weeks as expected from an autoflower, then slowed down and flowered simultaniously. Buds are on the smaller side but tight. There certainly was no problem in resin development as she is quite frosty, sticky and smelly. The trichomes have purple and clear stems with milky heads, about 5-10% amber and 10%(+) clear. All white pistils have turned orange or brown. Genetics are very stable with no signs of foxtailing or hermaphroditism. The only problem I’ve had was with nutrient sensitivity in flower phase - specifically week 8. It will depend on the end product quality as to whether I will grow this strain again or not. My final update will run a few days later than usual, but will include the Harvest and Smoq review information. I want everyone to know I appreciate all the support, likes, looks, follows, mentions and speedy answers to my questions! You are all phenomenal! Muchas gracias! Vielen dank! Спасибо! Merci beaucoup! Thank you! 🍽️ Nutrient change on 4 January 🐲 Feeding schedule updated 4 January 🌊 Using reverse osmosis water with EC/TDS at 0 🐉 Nutrient Solution EC .8 at 60 degrees F 💡 Light power at 50% That is it for this week. Thanks for the look, read and stopping by.

Jack herer has. Een growing rather slow. Mainly due to the cooler temperatures it has. Beside that everything is looking really good. The roots got pruned today, plus some lst and defoliation on a few leaves. She is ready for another week. Thank you Athena, Spider Farmer, and ILGM. 🤜🏻🤛🏻🌱🌱🌱 Thank you grow diaries community for the 👇likes👇, follows, comments, and subscriptions on my YouTube channel👇. ❄️🌱🍻 Happy Growing 🌱🌱🌱 https://youtube.com/channel/UCAhN7yRzWLpcaRHhMIQ7X4g

2/26: Harvested both Black Jacks and both Gorilla Girls tonight. They got a rough live trim, then chopped, washed, and hung to drip dry. Big, heavy, frosty buds on all 4 of them!👍 3/2: Still drying in the closet...amazing aromas!

The coco hempy buckets continue to impress. The rate of growth is just insane compared to the conservative nature of hand watered soilless mix. The girls are getting 2 heavy feedings daily, once right before lights on, once at lights off. Responding tremendously. The largest daughter has broken 4 feet this week and hopefully the stretch is coming to a close. Good thing for my headroom. I am having difficulty with humidity this week due in part to the weather, but I feel mostly because of an underpowered ac and mucho transpiration coming from the leaves. Set for second round defoliation in three days and hopefully some break from the heat. Struggling to keep the room under 70 rh right now.

8/12 day 64 plants in smaller pots suffer a bit from nutrient deficiency. Living soil seems to fit better in large setups, anyways they will be feeded with tap water only until i chop them.

- Humidity has been high in Berlin again but I managed to control it way better with the arrival of dehumidifier but still can not manage to bring it to lower 50%s. - VPD fluctuated this week between 1,0 and 1.55 kPa, averaging at 1,25 kPa. - Tent temperature fluctuated around 23 at night and 28 Celsius at day time, averaging at 26.3. Higher than last week… - Humidity did not fluctuate as it used to but still way higher than ideal range, averaging at 63.4. - This week, Medium Ph got back to normal of 6.3. I am now giving standard 6.4 Ph Water. - Both plants keep frosting day on day. - Stickiness and smell keep getting stronger. - So far, both seem to like their environment despite the high humidity and temperature.

She's doing well. Another week started in low humidity. The meter is on wet soil hence the high number which is inaccurate. Mostly 45-50%. Topped her on day 10 which turned out to be a FIM.

4/7 245am MONDAY totally unnecessary lighting!!!!! Experimenting with supplemental lighting ideas!! it does not have a dimmer no blue lights. It uses 16 W so I lowered the main lighting from 99 to 97 and I will probably bring it down to 94 and that will keep it as cool as the room, but the same amount of heat is a person is all the tent should give off👍👍 FROM GROK... I WAS RIGHT!!!!! HERE YOU GO EVERYBODY: I NEVER use more than 6ml per gallon of each one! ""Do Tasty Terpenes and sensizym by Advanced Nutrients work well together??? """"Yes, Tasty Terpenes and Sensizym by Advanced Nutrients can work well together in a nutrient regimen, as they serve complementary purposes and are designed to be compatible with each other and other Advanced Nutrients products. Tasty Terpenes is a bloom enhancer focused on improving flower quality, aroma, and size. It provides potassium, amino acids, and organic compounds from kelp and alfalfa to strengthen stalks, bulk up buds, and boost terpene production. It’s typically used during the flowering phase (weeks 3-6) at 2ml per liter to support robust plant development and enhance the sensory profile of the harvest. Sensizym, on the other hand, is an enzyme formula that targets the root zone. It contains a blend of enzymes like xylanase, cellulase, and beta-glucanase, which break down dead root material, organic debris, and complex carbohydrates into usable nutrients. This promotes a healthier root system, improves nutrient uptake, and can be used throughout the grow cycle—often at 2ml per liter during weeks 1-6 of bloom—to maintain an optimized growing medium. Together, they complement each other by addressing different aspects of plant health. Sensizym keeps the root zone clean and efficient, ensuring the plant can effectively absorb the nutrients and organic compounds delivered by Tasty Terpenes. This synergy can lead to better nutrient availability for flower development, potentially enhancing the size, potency, and flavor of the yield. Advanced Nutrients explicitly states that both products are compatible with all their base nutrients (pH Perfect or non-pH Perfect) and supplements, as well as competitors’ products, and can be used across various growing systems like hydroponics, soil, and coco. For best results, you’d typically apply Sensizym consistently to maintain root health, while adding Tasty Terpenes during the bloom phase to maximize flower quality. Since both are recommended at 2ml per liter, they integrate easily into a feeding schedule without overloading the nutrient solution, provided you monitor your plants for any signs of overfeeding. Growers often pair these types of products to cover both root optimization and bloom enhancement, and there’s no indication of chemical or functional conflict between them. Just ensure proper pH and EC levels after mixing to keep everything balanced."""""👍👍👍 4/8 1230am BUGS.... I saw hundreds of little white bugs on the rim of the planters, so fungus gnats LOTS of them..... Killing the grow, BPP is most damaged, I watered then sprayed FLOWER SHIELD at 10ml per 30oz saturated we will see ..... THE CHEAP AMAZON LIGHT LASTED 24 HOURS......I WILL GET AC INFINTY LIGHTS FOR AUX NEXT TIME. The lights from the humidity dome are good enough for my 2 x 2 tents 4/13 1am now im inventing some new aux lighting

No problems this week, plants growing extremely well. I got a new TDS meter, but unfortunately, I was not able to set up a drip system yet. The only training I did was to defoliate the first true leaves and everything below that. DAY 17 - Nutes PH - 6.1 Solution Temp - 19.5 PPM-1340 Watering Volume per plant - 2L DAY 20 - Water PH - 6.04 Solution Temp - 19.2 PPM-570 Watering Volume per plant - 2.5L Plant B is about 14cm Height and Plant A is about 17 cm Height. One interesting thing that I'm seeing is the fact that Plant B continues to show signs of deformity. On the video, you can see that the right side is missing a node, this missing node corresponds to the deform leaf. Maybe they are related, Plant A was slightly bigger from the beginning, but the node development is bigger in Plant B.

Installed new Vipar LED light. Watered with pH 6.2 RO water with General Hydroponics Flora Grow, CalMagic and Great White. 1/2 cup. I have a fan blowing on the babies to strengthen up the stem.
