​🌿 Journal de Culture : Mac 1 Autoflower – "Bee Happy" 🐝 (Semaine 7) ​Grand départ en vue ! Sur un coup de tête total, on a décidé de s'accorder 4 jours de vacances à Rimini en famille. Du coup, j'ai dû faire le tour des installations et prendre mes photos un peu à la va-vite avant de boucler les valises. Heureusement, avec les Autopots, je pars l'esprit tranquille. ​Paramètres de Culture & Évolution ​Taille : Elle s'est stabilisée à 1 mètre . ​Croissance verticale : À l'œil nu, on voit clairement qu'elle a enfin freiné sa course vers le plafond. Contrairement à sa sœur qui continue de grimper, "Bee Happy" semble avoir terminé son stretch. C'est une excellente nouvelle pour mes 45 cm de marge restants au-dessus de la lampe après avoir monté la lampe au maximum ! ​Climat & Environnement : Paramètres avec la lampe calée à 45 cm, des températures à 24°C jour / 21°C nuit et le déshumidificateur qui maintient la pièce à 60% d'humidité. Nutrition : Anticipation avant les vacances ​Pour ne pas la laisser en plan pendant notre absence, j'ai dû bousculer un peu mon calendrier : ​Boost Floraison : Hier, j'ai avancé sa ration de nutriments de 2 jours en lui donnant 4 ml de Liquid PK 5-8 de Biotabs. ​Objectif : Lui apporter le phosphore et le potassium nécessaires pour entamer le gros du gonflement des têtes pendant que je serai sur la côte italienne. Les vannes de l'Autopot vont assurer le relais en eau claire. ​Analyse de la structure ​Le fait qu'elle ait arrêté sa croissance verticale se voit tout de suite sur sa structure : elle se densifie à vue d'œil. La plante est extrêmement développée avec un réseau impressionnant de branches secondaires qui se sont parfaitement alignées sous le filet de SCROG. ​Les têtes commencent à prendre une vraie forme. Les bouquets de pistils se regroupent pour former des pompons bien blancs et bien distincts à chaque extrémité. Le feuillage est lourd, vigoureux, et les légères marques de la semaine dernière semblent s'être stabilisées après l'apport de Calmag. À mon retour, je m'attends à trouver une canopée bien plus givrée ! ​Un immense merci à @mia_biotabs, à Mrs_Larimar et à toute la communauté qui reste fidèle au poste ! On se retrouve dans 4 jours au retour de Rimini pour voir comment "Bee Happy" aura profité de son petit boost de PK. Bon grow à tous !

Not actually sure if end of week 5, I will check at some point maybe :P Removed 3 Hermies, will check think 1 wasn't random/"?". Pinched tops of pretty much all plants. Chopped the males up a bit, probably just remove them soon anyways, but some super early pollination would be okay I rate. Maybe try grow like, a carrot, pumpkin, between or where I removed males. Guess today I feed a lil bit and water well otherwise. About 700ml per plant now.

Coming soon

Day 63: Moving right along. Her buds smell like sour candy, it's really inviting. I'm sure the terps will keep evolving as well. Nearing the end here, very excited for this harvest! Day 66: I'm very happy with the bud growth so far, nothing more to say! Grow on. Day 67: Watered another 4L of ph'd tap water. Checked trichomes and I don't see that much amber. Lots clear trichs still and some cloudy on the more developed bud sites. Day 69: Took some pics and a video under natural light today to show off her colors and man does she look phenomenal. The buds look like fruity pebbles and smell sweet and dank. Some more fan leaves are developing some orange colors which leads me to believe that her fade is starting soon. Cannot wait for this harvest!

15/10 - Bit of defoliation to open her up and remove some stacked leaves. Didnt take a whole lot but its made a decent difference. I think that'll be the last cut before harvest bar a few which have been hit by the cal lock. Next grow I need to figure out how to access the back of the tent, because at the moment its impossible without fucking my back up and craning my neck. Got would I could back there but could def be better. Topped up with plain water as shes drank 10l over the last 2 days. Not seeing any more rust spots forming so hopefully the cal lockout is fixed. Shes starting to smell quite strong with notes of citrus and shes sticky as hell. 17/10 - EC plummeting again, 10l drank over 2 days. Topped up with water and 3ml CalMag, 5ml Grow, 10ml Bloom added. 18/10 - PH has remained stable overnight after the top up. I ended up doing quite a bit of defoliation today, again opening her up and removing problematic or shaded leaves. Always amazes me how much plant matter can be removed and yet she still ends up looking super dense. 20/10 - Full res change. 5ml CalMag 10ml Micro 5Ml Grow 45Ml Bloom. 1.15EC 6.1PH. 21/10 - PH dropping much more slowly now, so in a good spot. Continuing to take the odd leaf here and there to help light penetrate and get them off bud sites.

People of the ganja world, here we are, he second plant has gone down, we apologise to anyone affected by PTSD from the two towers, it was not our intention to harm you with the similarity. Our Buddy Buddha from the start to the end lived its life next to Powell, they were close! Now that the final curtain has been drawn.. or tent flap, it is with a sad heart that we at the "In the Closet with Two Strains" Studio will be saying goodbye. She was never the most impressive plant, kept feeling like she would bloom more but the conditions were never truly right for her. Both plants had their branches sliced at the stem and large leaves removed, this purposely slowed drying down to maximise end flavour. They were both washed in cleaning pools to prepare them for their final journey in the tent. With a sad heart we wish you farewell Buddy, we will see you and Powell soon... IN OUR SMOKE REPORT! Yes it is time to get these ladies dried and ready to serve their purpose, life is a party, so let us have one! See you soon folks!

First, I made a mistake on week 13, it is not vegetative week but flowering week.The flowers enlarge and become hard as stone. The smell is more and more intense. I have not spotted any parasites or deficiencies.I would say it will be ready the first week of October.I thought it would be faster but it's probably because of the hard living conditions she been trought..

Welcome back everyone, As you can see are almost all seedlings growing. Some where still in the soil. Might happend when giving water(seedlings can turn or get deeper), checked it out and they are alive and well. All pictures are from day 4. The humidifier had been added, so I had to adjust the room. I spotted a corner of the room that gets dryer faster. I adjust the fan for now and see what happens. Corners are always hard to get perfect. Sometimes the light, air, watering doesn't come there properly. Seedlings don't need much nutrients, neighter do autoflowers. with normal soil I would recommend to only give water for 1-2 weeks, since it holds nutrients in it as well. But since I'm using Cocos for this grow, I might have to add some basic nutrients in the upcomming week. For this week I gave/give only water turns and Startbooster/rhyzotonic turns. Update day 5: - Lowerd the lights to avoid stretching, they are now at 75cm distance from lamp to pots. I want them at 40-50 cm, but I don't want to rush it. - Added another layer of cocos to avoid the soil from drying up therefore the roots from dying. This will happen because of lowering the lamps down, the soil will get exposed more to heat. As you can see, the humidifier is doing his thing haha. Pictures and videos where taken without the lights + fans on. because of that, it will look like this. Still fun thought. Arround 7 seeds didn't reach the surface yet, lets hope they make there way up soon. Enjoy!

Aug 1: looking really good with lots of stretch and lots of bud sites. Added another scrog net layer and clipped it to the next lower scrog net which is tied off with 500 g weights to gently hold things in place. These nets are great because it makes the whole plant more robust and they can focus on flowering rather than coping with winds that keep banging them around. Had the hail net on the plants for a hour this evening. Hard brief rain but no hail this time.

The 3 leaf Snak plant is doing very well. Once I transplant into the one gallon fabric pot the plants seem to start growing a little faster,

Now then; let's begin.💪🏻

Day 15 Today I switched the lights from the Seedling program to the Growth program. I measured around 640 PPFD at the canopy level so a bit high for early veg but I will leave it where it is now and keep an eye out for light stress, and raise the lights if I have to. I also added a second USB fan for increased circulation. USB fans are great when the plants are small and you don't want the stronger winds that the regular clip fan generates. I also started the clip fan but directed it towards the lights to help keep them a bit cooler. I adjusted the extractor fan from 60 secs Off/30 secs On to 30 secs Off/30 secs On in order to remove more hot air. This will have to be tweaked further and I'll monitor my temps to figure out a suitable setting. It becomes a balance between temp and humidity. I really wish I had a system where I could set a target VPD and then the system would automatically adjust temps and humidity to follow that target. Not practical in my small setup though but maybe one day... Temps are always an issue in my setup as I have two powerful lights inside one small tent without AC. I have set the light cycle so that the lights are on during the night but off during the day to help to balance the temp a bit. I'm also considering getting some extension cables and put the LED drivers outside the tent to see if that helps to bring down the temps a bit further. Later in the grow I will use CO2 so that will help a bit against higher temps. Finally, I watered the plants as they were getting a bit dry. The left plant got 1 liter and the right plant 1.5 liters as the sensor reported that that pot was a bit drier. I reckon it has to do with the plant being larger (almost double the size of the other plant!) I should also really get my ass in gear and hook up the Blumat system so I don't need to worry about hand watering. Day 16 Nothing to report really except some additional growth, both vertical and horizontal. Day 17 Watering time again. Gave them 6.2 pH water this time and once again more to the right plant as it drinks more. I guess around 1.3 liters for the left plant and 2 liters for the right one. I tried putting in my small USB humidifier into the tent but I soon realized that it can't share the USB power that the fans are running on so will have to get another USB power cable in there. Didn't expect that small humidifier to use that much power. Oh well, that's a job for another day. Day 18 The girls are thirsty it seems as I had to water again today according to the Blumat sensors (I really, really need to install my Blumat system as soon as possible but should get the last bits that I need in a day or two). I gave them 2.5 liters of water (pH 6.7) and once again a bit more to the right plant. I also was able to squeeze in my tiny humidifier into the tent even though the tomatoes are still in there. Turns out that all I had to do was to switch the USB power adapter from the old Samsung one that I used to a more powerful iPad charger. Now it works just fine to run the fan and the humidifier on the same power. The reason why I'm using a small USB humidifier instead of a proper one is simply due to the lack of space in my small tent. This (very basic) humidifier is the smallest one I could find yet have a decent size tank so I don't need to fill it up all the time. Day 19 The cover crop EXPLODED since yesterday so the first thing I had to do today was to cut that back a bit. I also started brewing some compost tea (AACT). I mixed together worm castings, rock dust, biochar, lime, bentonite, neem meal, kelp meal, and molasses and will leave it brewing for 24 hours and then feed it to the plants tomorrow. Would have liked to add alfalfa meal as well but haven't been able to find any. I usually put my seed starter warming mat under and taped to the brewing bucket to increase the tea temperature and microbial activity. The plants are doing their thing, a little bit taller and a little bit wider. I will probably top the right plant next week but not sure about the left one as it is smaller so might need another week. Day 20 The compost tea was ready today after 24 hours of brewing. I fed each girl with around 3 liters of tea (pH 6.8) and as I wasn't planning any foliar feeding this time around I kept the tea unfiltered. So that everything that went into making the tea ended up as a top dressing. I guess I don't have to water for a couple of days after this. Not much change is plant size but the leaves are filling out. Day 21 Today was completely uneventful so not much to report except that I probably will top the right plant tomorrow as it is up to 5 nodes.
