Screw the stretch then. Full spectrum lighting from the top, the blue & red emitting from the "full spectrum" light only penetrates 1-2 layers of the leaf, the green wavelength will penetrate 4,5,6 layers, and the best ratio for flower growth is 1/2/1 R/B/G, and very little of the red and blue reaching lower parts of the plants or even the sides, flowers on lower parts of canopy receiving a majority of green will grow larf style buds, often lackluster, I supplement blue and red at the sides, I do not want to add more "full spectrum" this would double dose the green which penetrates deep. By the end of week, I'm looking at bud sites everywhere, the density is exceptional and above what i'm come to expect in week 1.5, it was the like plant skipped the stretch and went right to bud site production.

## Week 10 Update: Flowering Phase Transition 🌿🌟 ### 🌱 First Signs of Flowering 🌱 Welcome to Week 10! The transition to the flowering phase is well underway. We’re starting to see some promising developments as the plants move from vegetative growth into the flowering stage. --- ### 🌿 Current Plant Status 🌿 **Greenhouse Super Lemon Haze 🌞** - **Growth:** The plant has reached a robust and healthy canopy. The stretch phase is noticeable, with the plant reaching its full height. - **Flowering Progress:** Early signs of flowering are starting to appear. Look for the first signs of pistils or calyxes in the coming days. **Humboldt Seed Bubba Kush 🌿** - **Growth:** This plant is maintaining its dense and bushy structure, which is great for future bud development. - **Flowering Progress:** Initial flowering traits are emerging. The plant is slowly transitioning into the flowering phase with early bud formation visible. **Blueberry Muffin πŸ₯ž** - **Growth:** The canopy remains strong and dense, ready to support upcoming flower production. - **Flowering Progress:** The plant is beginning to show its first signs of flowering. Calyxes and pistils are starting to form as it adjusts to the light cycle. --- ### 🌱 Nutrient and Supplement Update 🌱 **Current Nutrient Regimen:** - **Power Roots (PLAGRON):** 1 ml/l to keep enhancing root health and overall plant vigor. - **Pure Zym (PLAGRON):** 0.5 ml/l to continue supporting root health and improve nutrient uptake. - **Terra Bloom (PLAGRON):** 2 ml/l to supply essential nutrients for bud development. - **Power Buds (PLAGRON):** 0.5 ml/l to stimulate bud formation and increase flower density. - **Orgatrex (Bio Tabs):** 2 ml/l for a balanced nutrient profile. **Feeding Schedule:** - Adjusting the nutrient mix to support the early stages of flowering and ensure the plants are getting balanced nutrition for optimal flower growth. ### 🌱 Environmental Conditions 🌱 **Temperature & Humidity:** - Conditions are being carefully monitored and adjusted to support flowering and prevent issues such as mold or nutrient deficiencies. **Training & Defoliation:** - Continuing with LST (low-stress training) and selective defoliation to maintain an even canopy and ensure light penetration to all parts of the plant. --- ### 🌸 Looking Ahead 🌸 As we enter Week 10, the flowering phase is becoming more apparent. The first signs of flowers are emerging, and the plants are adjusting to this crucial stage. Over the next few weeks, we’ll continue to monitor their progress closely and make adjustments as needed to ensure healthy flower development. Stay tuned for next week’s update to see how the flowering process is progressing and to check out any new developments in the grow! Happy growing! πŸŒŸπŸ’š

I'm gonna jump right in..πŸ‘¨β€πŸŒΎ The high stress technique I have used a couple days ago called super cropping, I (tried more or less) to keep the canopy under control and more even. This also allow lower bud sites to rise to the top and slow down the 'stretching'. 🌲🌲🌲🌲🌞🌞🌞🌞 The trade in doing it at this stage, is that the plant is also focusing more on healing the stems instead of total focus on the buds. But I'm probably early enough in the flower stage they will make it up by having more strong stems in the end. That's because the points they are broken now are gonna heal back more strong.πŸ’ͺπŸ’ͺπŸ’ͺ I've added some nutrients to help them heal. Aptus is working great with my organic soilπŸ‘πŸ˜ŽπŸ’š πŸŒŠπŸ’¦ 🌞🌞🌞🌞🌞🌞🌞🌞🌞 As you maybe have seen I've added some extra lights. This are Mars Hydro's new Adlite's. Here is some info about them in my own words.πŸ‘¨β€πŸŒΎ -IR 15, is a infrared light that is promoting extra photosynthesis. Basically long wave length of lights that will penetrate leaves and hit the stems, so the idea is stems will be more strong and be able to carry bigger buds. -UV 30, is a ultraviolet light that will try to mimic the radiation that comes of the sun. A little explanation about what this does to the plant in nature is that the plant will make it's own sunblock oil in the form of trichomes. So by adding this light the idea is that the plant is gonna work more to block this 'radiation'. -Deep Red 30, is like the title maybe already explained a red light booster. In nature the spectrum of the sun changes with the season, so it's easy to explain the sun will get more intense and contains more red in the summer. The wavelength of red is also pretty long like the 'infrared' these will sometimes penetrate leaves and hit stems and lower buds. The idea is more photosynthesis.

Beautiful pair of phenos of Badaz og cheese very excited about what strain is gonna offer me in terms of quality buds, so excited to see what is every of this 2 phenos gonna be like, I really hope that both of them have the exact terpenes profile and the same potency! Let's keep on working! We'll the ladies have been Transplanted on February 2nd after 17 days since planted, they were very big and the pot was completely conquered by strong roots as you can see, now both of them are in their new 11l pot home let's see how they keep developing! πŸ’›β€οΈπŸ’šπŸ”πŸ’Ž

Mistakes.. * I switched from Advenced Nuts to TopCrop and didn't realize the second one is not balancing ph of the substance so you need to do it yourself. * After realizing that I had a ph imbalance I didn't act fast, somehow I thought I would be a good idea to wait till the autoflovers would finish the cycle and I would take care of this one after, but I lost time and the desiese became stronger. * After I fixed the ph problem, I switched the light schedule to 12/12. I had to let it vegetate for more time to be fully fixed and switch after, but I was in a hurry.. So the results are not so good. But believe me, its some strong ass weed :D Anyway I've learned a lot from this grow. Next one will be a lot better

Total days above ground: 70 Total flower nights: 31 Vege growth stopped around FD25. Started feeding 1/2 strength fertilizer FD26 (last 6 irrigations including today). Excellent development across the canopy. Tried to get some pictures showing how the colas are stacking up along with a couple shots of terminal buds. Included some photos and videos of irrigation setup, drainage and other half of the tent setup that is not often visible in weekly updates. Also, a video showing the canopy with some grateful dead background music. Last week including progression pictures as they are full size. Kush Mints have been awesome 1 through 4. Great structure, easy to manipulate, and a couple had a nice strong minty smell that keeps changing everyday, so I'm not getting my hopes too high, yet. This stuff evolves over time and what a stem-rub smells like at FD30 isn't always representative of what the finished product will be. Regardless, super happy with the crop, overall. Smell is starting to ratchet up. Bud sites are mostly formed at this point and we will see some noticable ripening by next week's update. Might see a hint of fattening calyxes in the bud pictures this week. 2026-2 starts in 8 days. Will have some Blue Cookies and Pineapple Express from MSNL running along side some Vanilla Creme Pie from HSC. Can't believe winter-2 is already starting. Time is flying by. Breeding cycle is doing well. Will update that when the pollen-receivers join the pollen-donator on a 12/12 light schedule. Side note -- looks like I avoided any issues from accidentally leaving port hole opened about 8 or 9 days ago. I have it marked in notes and will feel 100% confident 2-weeks out from the incident. So far, so good. The lung room is mostly dark and light would have to travel a difficult path to get in the tent, but still mildly concerned about it.

7/4 - When I came into the tent this morning the ladies were praying! They looked very happy and I have to believe it was the worms. I did nothing else. I watered all with Trinity and RO Water. They have nearly completely recovered from their minor deficiencies. Their leaves look great. 7/6 - Both Wonder Woman ladies are doing great. They were praying again when I checked on them earlier. Their leaves look healthy and happy. I watered them today with just RO water, CalMag, and Extreme Serene as they will get fed tomorrow. I also did a foliar spray of the Extreme Serene on all. I will be vegging them out for another 2 weeks and then flipping them to flower. 7/10 - End of week 9 and both ladies are looking great. Watered with RO water and Molasses.

Haven't uploaded in a month, but back at it! Plant has been doing great. An animal almost cracked the main stem right through but with some tape and patience she recovered quite well. Recently discovered that i should water her even more (first plant) so now i'll give her a good 2-3 liters every 2-3 days. She's standing outside 24/7. I've also ordered General Hydrophonics nutrients yesterday since i had the opportunity. I've topped her once about 2 weeks ago and I'm thinking of topping the 2 main stems again soon. Wondering when she'll go into flower though See you next week!

HIGH LEVEL From EVA SEEDS 6th Jan 2020 ** Hi all I have done a couple of alterations since my last update , firstly I erected a greenhouse to cover all of my photo girls and I finally ended up transplanting plant number 2 . I ended up deciding to put her straight into the ground as I had nowhere else to put her to be honest. Since the transplant the new growth looks different than it was prior to the move. It could be completely unrelated to the transplant but if you look at pics 3&4 you will see the new growth I'm referring to. Plant 1 is really getting stinky even tho it's still in veg , just an accidental brush past her omits an incredible skunky smell which means she'll be very stinky during the actual flowering ( well that's what i reckon anyway) Plant 1 is a big girl and will almost certainly get much bigger once the flowering stretch begins next month. Thankyou for checking in and reading my latest update see you next week πŸ‘

Hiiigh friends πŸ™Œ Welcome to week 4. 😍 They have grown well in size and the one on the far left has overtaken her two sisters although she shows signs of a deficiency. 😊 I have noticed a calcium magnesium deficiency because I only water with osmosis water. What to you think? See you next week. πŸ‘‹ Arturo for KannaKullektiv πŸ™

Very easy strain to grow yields well as has some cheese in the cross. Flavour is sweet with cheese with an old school earthy twist from the black Domina

Harvest Part One, Day 93: First harvest of the Main colas, as a lot of the trichomes turned brown. An awful lot of work to trim wet, but wanted to get rid of all the dryed leaves. A comment on another diary said leaves turned yellow because of possible lockout. Well, i cant deny it, but i have no experience at all with it. In hindsight i should have used a lot more fertilizer during the vegi phase, i guess, because this monster turned out to be super hungry (if that makes sense). Density after removing the leaves is ok i think. Expected a bit more to be honest. Massive headbuds still though. However, kinda β€žrawβ€œ on the inside as you can see by the color and general appearance. So wondering if it was to early still. Alright, half of the plant cut down, and placed in dryferm bags (compare to dryaging but tailored to Cannabis), as i have mentioned before. Still in the process, after like 7 days half of the weight gone already. A Bit more to go i think. I think i will post another update with the bottom part of the plant and for sure one with the finished product. So far very surprising strain in a positive way, still very delicate smell (i get the β€ždoughyβ€œ and in a sense creamy part of dutch Passions Description, its very subtile though and not much else, almost citrusy tea like), great yield, grows somewhat easy but probably isnt easy to maintain and doesnt like errors in handling. All in all im very happy and cant wait to try the First Buds. So far 7.5/10 β€” very decent. Letβ€˜s see how it performs. Might change the evaluation then. And sorry, might totally be wrong about everything. Let me know your opinion, criticism, etc., please!

Have some deficiencies or ph imbalance still troubleshooting. The pH was off but now everything is back on track. I have some amber on the watermelon, the northern light is milky from top to bottom but no amber yet The smell is pretty strong I do not feed the plants at all besides watering them with water from fish tanks. Made some live soil and added horse manure, homemade bone meal from fish bones, compost from vegetable scraps and black soldier fly frass. I do not use chemicals on any of my grows.

Nearing the end. Defoliated and pulled apart the mass of buds that had all grown into a single main cola. I didn't notice but there were multiple buds all cramed together, blocking out light to the inside. After pulling them apart and carefully tying them down I have been able to increase the airflow, trichome, and overall size while also decreasing the excess nitrogen that had built up in those cramped bud sites. Did all this about 5 days ago and ahe is getting even better. Just a few days left. Also, I cut off a little piece yesterday just cause I'm so desperate. Lol. Next update will be harvest!

What up grow fam. Week 3 up on these girls. At the moment they're a little upset with me. I went away for a few days so I over watered hoping they'd be alive when I return. They're still alive but sure upset and showing it. I did a defoliation taking the bigger fan leafs off to allow some more light to the lower branches. Also I don't usually put them under full power of my light until about week 5 but I did to see how they'd do and though they're stacking super tight, I think I probably did more harm then good. I'll baby them and see if they'll bounce back. All in all Happy Growing
