one more week up we go and Defoliation time as come and i want to share with you a technique that I've found to be really helpful for improving the quality and yield of my plants: defoliation. Now, I know that the idea of removing some of your plant's leaves might sound a bit counterintuitive or even scary, but hear me out. Defoliation can actually be a wonderful way to show your plants some love and help them reach their full potential. One of the main benefits of defoliation is that it can improve the airflow and light penetration throughout your plant. By removing some of the larger fan leaves that can block light and air circulation, you can ensure that your plant is getting all the nutrients and energy it needs to thrive. Plus, defoliation can help your plant produce bigger and denser buds. By redirecting its energy towards bud production instead of leaf growth, you can achieve a more bountiful harvest with higher-quality buds that are rich in cannabinoids and terpenes. And, as an added bonus, defoliation can even help to prevent the growth of harmful pathogens like mold, which can thrive in warm, humid environments. By increasing air circulation through your plant, defoliation can help to reduce the humidity levels in your grow space and keep your plants healthy and happy. So, if you're looking for a way to give your Girls some extra love and attention, I highly recommend trying out defoliation. With a gentle touch and some careful pruning, you can help your plants reach their full potential and enjoy a bountiful harvest of beautiful, high-quality buds. Oh, and she loved the leaves falling off, haha! She took it in stride, as if it were no big deal. Just love how this one meditates with me all the time , Big Namaste to her and to the creators of this madame Le Freak As always thank you all for stopping by , for the love and for it all, i fell blessed to have you all with me for one more love journey, and a different one form the rest i did so far <3 <3 <3 Thank you Thank you Thank you , you guys are great and have been amazing , thank you for everything <3<3<3 #aptus #aptusplanttech #aptusgang #aptusfamily #aptustrueplantscience #inbalancewithnature #trueplantscience #dogdoctorofficial #growerslove

Así que dejaros de esta vez, un video muy interesante sobre el resultado de la temporada de invierno y el desarrollo de las dos cepas de Ripper - Washing Machine e Brain Cake. 13 minutos narrados en inglés para que veáis las horas finales de los grows. El domingo (lunes máximo) serán cortadas y puestas en secado para empezar la segunda fase del ciclo - secado y cura. Así que espero vuestros comentarios importantísimos y que podáis dar vuestras opiniones indispensables para que vuestros conocimientos también puedan servir para que en el futuro las cosas se hagan mejor y siempre es posible evoluir y hacer mejor. 420 siempre y que el Dios Jah nos guarde de todos los peligros. Un feliz 2024 para todos....

12/25/23 - Day 48 - Merry Xmas yall! The plant is looking great! She keeps on stretching up with the buds! PH and PPMs are looking great. 12/28/23 - Day 51 - So she has been growing like crazy. For sure this is the bushiest plant I have had in here yet! The undergrowth is insane, the canopy is filling up with buds, its a good day to be Skunk#1 plant. She might be drinking water too fast and messing up the ratios of nutes to water but that's easily fixable by making sure she is topped off every day. Everything is going as expected. Ill update again in another day or so.

Dec 28 - Both plants are close to harvest. Had 5.5. hours of darkness after 24 hr period to prevent budrot developing. Also moved plants inside tent moreso, and closer to fans. Dec 28 - Watered healthy plant today at 2PM - I'll chop unhealthy plant tomorrow, so didn't water, instead inspected trichomes. Dec 28 - Unhealthy Plant is showing amber trichomes, but also clear - Unsure if I should chop tomorrow or not. Dec 29 - DAY 73 - CHOPPED - Trimmed larger fan leaves (accidentally trimmed a sugar leaf or two) and harvested to dry whole, upside down. I'm hoping for a half ounce per plant. Dec 19 - 11.50PM Trichome Calyx' were observed, there are new calyx' appearing. Calyx' are swelling. Dec 30 - Plant developing more senescence and calyx are swelling. Dec 30 - Trichomes are still clear, but I'm seeing some PM develop so I think I'll chop tomorrow morning. Dec 31 - Nice Senescence occurring, Happy to have left it this last day. Accidentally left temps up to 78F for a half hour. Dec 31 - Decided to push another week as per feedback from GD member. When watering I noticed she was perky after 3 days w. no water. Interesting and likely the frequency I'll continue watering at. Dec 31 - Watered at 9PM. Jan 1 - Removed small fan leaf with signs of PM at the base. This defoliation should help with airflow. Checked newly formed calyx' and they're clear enough not to document. Jan 2 - Buds are developing nicely, calyxes are noticably swelling nicely too. I see some green pistils appearing in the lowest buds. Clear Trichomes. Jan 3 - Watered at 8AM. Woke up to 90F temp. Unfortunately they'd been cooking for about an hour. Jan 3 - DRYING UPDATE - I'm seeing fluctuations in the drying room between RH 49% and 70%. As of 3.10PM @ 61RH after adding jars of water. I want to maintain this RH. Jan 3 - Senesence looking good, calyx' are continuing to swell. Will inspect trichomes tomorrow at latest.

Clone 1is growing normal now. Lots of branching. Plus she pit on st least a inch a day in height. So she is growing great. I am not sure what I will do with her. I may move it to a bigger potter then flower it in the tent it was in. It is now just vegging in my autoflower room in a corner under the Medic Grow Mini Sun-2.
