I sliced my thumb open so this weeks report will be short. We had budlets show up and have come in strong. All 7 colas are firm and strong. I was able to apply some tie downs to allow more light in to the bottom canopy. No issues to report other than some small colored tips that I’ll keep my eye on. The environment is pretty solid. No issues there to report. In case you didn’t know, we are approaching the most crucial weeks of flowering, weeks 4-6. From my research, this is a very crucial time for cannabis plants. Hopefully my thumb will have healed up next week. This is what I get for planting a tree on Earth day while stoned!

How was your week ! Mine has been awesome , the fact that the buds are gaining some weight and increasing their size is totally amusing. This week , the buds are getting a lot bigger compared to the recent week . She still loves to grow single blade leaves , by now i am really not sure if it’s the strain or the nutes that is making her producing so much sugar leaves instead of developing buds. The reason i am suspecting the nutes is because some of the leaves are showing signs of nitrogen toxicity (dark colour and droopy tips) . The ph of the reservoir is balanced now , she is drinking up water but the ppm is a little bit higher . I tried to give her plain water several times because i saw some burning tips (PPM around 1300-1500) . I use my 60x loop to inspect the trichomes , she seems to have loads of trichome and a few milky ones. So i really don’t know how long she will take but to me it seems like she is not even close to being done. BTW , check my last picture , i think there is something wrong with her . I spotted about 20 leaves which have this kind of burn , please help me indicate what is up.

A busy week here in the tents. The fated week of defoliation and lollipopping. Took off a large amount and got them ready for the next six weeks. I'll only be watering and defoliating from here on our so the girl should be on autopilot. She started the frost here in week three. ❄️ Thanks for stopping by!

She's really popping off with her bud sites. Short but definitely promising. Managed to tidy up the grow tent a bit and did a bit of cable management so I could put in the dehumidifier. Hoping to reach lower RH from now on.

D92/FD64 - Now the humidity down from the cull, showing no real signs of the rot...did take 1 or 2 more smaller buds and a few from the drying box that was getting the "Grey Beard" but <touch wood>, seems to have settled. The Lower buds appear to be ripening now and are a deep purple. This plant looks soo amazing, pity it was just not so strong against the rot (again, it was done no favours by out of whack temps [i let it get a bit low at night for colour] and humidity). Have bought a Hotbox Sulfume now for a preventative going forward so would risk this strain again now that I know it needs that bit more protection; 'cause it smells so different and looks so different, its a winner - as long as I can get it over the line safely!!! May hit this a blast with the sulfur for a couple of 2 hour sessions over the next week to ensure it remains without mold!!!! Apart from that, nothing else to report. Happy growing all!!! 💪

Sky steht jetzt da wie jemand, der gerade einen radikalen Frühjahrsputz hinter sich hat: weniger Arme, dafür deutlich mehr Ausstrahlung. Man sieht sofort: Hier mussten Triebe gehen. Viele sogar. Platzmangel, Luftzirkulation, Vernunft – die klassische Grower-Entscheidung zwischen Herz und Schere. Ergebnis: ein deutlich aufgeräumtes Gerüst mit Fokus auf die Top-Triebe, die jetzt alle schön im Licht stehen wie VIPs auf der Gästeliste. Und die Buds? Die haben in Woche 4 endgültig beschlossen, keine Theorie mehr zu sein. Die Colas strecken sich nach oben, dicht besetzt mit weißen Stempeln, die mittlerweile nicht mehr „Hallo“ sagen, sondern „Bleib noch ein paar Wochen“. Die Buds sind klar länger geworden, beginnen sich übereinander zu stapeln und wirken jetzt richtig säulenartig. Keine Kugeln mehr – das sind jetzt ernstzunehmende Blütenstände. Harzproduktion ist sichtbar angezogen: ein feiner, gleichmäßiger Frost legt sich über die Zuckerblätter. Noch kein Zuckerschock, aber eindeutig der Moment, in dem man nach dem Anfassen der Pflanze unauffällig an den Fingern riecht. Die unteren Bereiche sind deutlich luftiger – man merkt, dass die Energie jetzt konsequent nach oben geht. Genau so, wie man es in Woche 4 sehen will: weniger Drama unten, mehr Geschäft oben.

First week of 12/12 aka the transition week. Stretch has begun and canopy is filling in nicely. Have been doing a lot of pruning, defoliation and lollipopping to get the small shit cleaned up and solid airflow. Steady as she goes!!

As you can see, the buds are getting to their maximum size and we still have at least two weeks more before the final flush. As you can see i increased the CO2 in the tent, in order to get advantage from the high temperatures inside the growth space (around 27/28ºC with no thermal amplitude between day and nights), Southern Portugal had been register around 36ºC day maximum and 28ºC nights minimum, so without AC it isn't posible to drop temperature, but despite of it, the buds are thriving from day to day and the scent and coloques are impressive (some redish Buds, no foxtails whatsoever, and the terpens are just Delicious. I will let you with a video explaining my growth area process. Jah God on command...Peace!

So here we are roughly at end of Week 14. Some photos are from after that point as we are getting close to harvest. What can I say about these plants other than what they already are showing. I royally gave them some bad treatment with pH lockout, and still managed to come back together and finish strong. Noticing, these are all the same strain, with some clearly different phenotypes showing through. To that matter, they all are amazing and showing some real quality signs. The trichomes are almost all cloudy and I have a few amber coming in. The terpenes are coming out and the plants are finishing out the remainder of nutrients in the soil with some good flushing as well. Right now the ladies are in the dark for the next 48-72 hours. After that time period, I will check the trichomes one last time before I chop them to hang. The size of these nugs is not only impressive in terms of length, but the density is also there to back it up. These are some dense, resinous, long ass nugs! Corona virus has the best smell and smells almost like it's got a blueberry undertone going on. It is also packed with resin, which is a bonus, however the nugs are smaller than the other two plants. Big Red has the longest and most nugs out of the three. It's smell is not really much to speak of, and the resin is decent comparing to the others. Stubby has the thickest, densest and most crystal coverage out of all three of them. Unfortunately it is shorter and the overall yield is not as impressive as the other two. So they all have their pro's and con's, but I am thinking I am looking towards a decent harvest with some well grown bud. This might be a grow I am not as ashamed of in my history! 😆 Happy Growing, cheers! 👊😁

one tank, the left side, went bad water... some kind of something in the water... some kinda growth or thingie.... so .... i went after the bad water tank hard... pulled it out... scrubbed the tank... scrubbed it all... the funny thing about this is.... these plants are both 50 days old.... haha.... i put em into a type of suspended animation .... lol they are just now starting to hook onto the solutions and are now both feeding.... the growth rate will increase exponentially over a short amount of time, now that they have both hooked onto the neut water and are growin roots thru the clay balls....... (look close at them, notice the first stage 3 leafs ? so u know what stage of growth, 3 leaf and 5 leaf and 7 leaf.... etc... so 50 days and u can clearly see the first stage 3 leafs... lol) (this probably has some major implications for growing food in space) 👍😎

Not sure about the pin down technique, although I will carry on until flowering. It definitely requires more practice. Seems like the plant is willing to live, and the thing is I have only 3 months until my holiday, so there is no time to start over with an another grow. The genetics in this one isn't the best in my opinion, one stem grows really odd leaves. I will wait a bit more and if the strange shaped leaves are keeping growing, then I will have to cut off that branch.

https://lumatek-lighting.com/ <3 <3 <3 Growers love to you all <3 <3 <3 " Arising from a cross between purple and citrus Cali genetics, Purple Lemonade FF (Fastflowering) offers a complex high made up of perfectly balanced cerebral and body effects that are ideal for daytime use. Expect an extremely enjoyable high that boosts your mood while deeply relaxing your whole body and getting rid of muscle pain. This meticulous cross produces up to 550 g/m2 of some of the most beautiful purple buds, with pinkish and reddish hues that will catch everyone’s attention. The beautiful purple buds are ready for harvest in 7-8 weeks and come hand-in-hand with unbelievably sugary citrus terps that are just as refreshing as a cold lemonade on a hot Summer day. It’s the ideal variety for the sweet-tooth stoner seeking strains that deliver both in quality and quantity of resin. Bud Description Purple Lemonade FF grows chunky, spade-shaped buds that boast a whole range of pinkish-purple hues with rich, dark orange pistils shooting out of every direction. This variety stands out for the, oftentimes, lilac trichomes that give them a gorgeous pink tint and make for outstanding purple concentrates. The buds give off a delicious tart lemon aroma that reveals a sweeter, more fruity scent as you break the buds open. Definitely a must for flavor chasers and those looking for pungent terpene profiles. Smoke Reports Purple Lemonade FF offers an effect that’s just as unique as the flavor. Expect a potent uplifting high that gives you that energy boost you need to get things done while 100% happy and stress-free. The effect gradually transforms into a wave that works its way along the limbs and through the muscles, deeply relaxing your body and putting you in the right mindset to go through a busy day with a huge smile on your face. This is an excellent all-day smoke as it not only increases energy but can also help combat chronic pain, migraine and stress. Plant Appearance This feminized photoperiod variety develops a thick and strong structure, growing a medium-sized main cola with multiple shorter side branches, typical of hybrid strains. Purple Lemonade FF develops fairly short internodal spacing with gorgeous purple buds growing stacked on top of each other, making it the perfect choice for growers of all levels looking to get lots and lots of top-shelf purple weed, as this variety can produce up to 550 g/m2 in a 7-8 week flower cycle. Grow Tips This is a super fast feminized photoperiod version that takes approximately 7-8 weeks to flower with a 5-week vegetation cycle,, this means you can have faster harvests by shortening the veg cycle or have a longer veg cycle for bigger yields. Purple Lemonade FF (Fastflowering) makes for a great candidate for growers of all levels as it’s a vigorous strain that will thrive with basic maintenance both indoors and outdoors. This is a resin powerhouse so make sure to have your trim bin close by as all the resinous sugar leaves will make for the most mouth-watering hash and extracts. Flavor Expect a long-lasting citrus zest that taste just like it smells. Purple Lemonade FF reeks of a delicious blend of sweet fruits and tart citrus that’ll make your mouth water. On the inhale, expect sour flavors that taste just like lemon candy with hints of orange and a really subtle earthy background. And on the exhale, the citrus flavors open up, giving place to a more sugary berry fruitiness that leaves your whole mouth tasting like an extremely sweet weed-infused lemonade.

Chunking up rather nicely right now, and smelling incredibly potent! As you can tell from the picture several bud sites, two mail cola's and a few other primary cola's that are dominating the canopy of the plant! Cannot wait to harvest this sucker!

Woche 4 Topping und Blattschnitt. Der Blattschaden wird wohl durch die zu abrupte Umstellung kommen. Etwas viel Licht und Wind im neuen Zelt der kleinen . 45. DLI (noch aus der letzten Blüte) wurde erstmal auf 35 DLI reduziert.
