Hello everybody :) End of the ninth week of flowering. Some of the lady's change color slightly. Probably next week will be the las for Power Plant, Wild Thailand and Critical Haze - yeaap they are almost ready for harvest :) The rest definitely need two more weeks. Due to the fact that we have here mainly sativas, including powerful haze genetics, they are not very dense, but still very oily and sticky :)

DAY 29: Wooohoo, it is that exciting time when we notice more of the little white hairs poking up around the bracts and the tips take on a bursting opening of growth appearance. The main 2 in flower are the Northern lights #1 and Grandaddys mimosa. Both have started to stretch and will benefit from the planned l.s.t to keep them in their best light . Northern lights has taken a very healthy S-bend in her stem as she wanted to go tall from the beginning. Her growth rate has been excellent under the light and I can see her stretching will certainly have me pushing the lights footprint limits. Grandaddys mimosa has also added a nice bit of height at around 12 inches now. A good start for stretching too. She has space and I have been removing the larfy lower growth from rhem all to not waste energy. She is a little more advanced in flower then the northern light but very close. Both of the Gorilla cookies are starting to join the party now and look like they are still in veg and pushing tips up for flowering but no signs of bract hairs yet so they will hopefully match the size of the other 2 soon enough. They are a bushier appearance than the other 2 strains so I will have to make sure they dont get overgrown by their canopies after the stretch periods. The mutant Northern lights has still remained small and hopeful but I wont be holding out too.much hope on her. I contacted Fast buds and used their after sales service to discuss the failed seeds. They were excellent and only needed a few details of purchase and a couple of pics with some info on what happened and they have now replaced the 3 that I lost. Well done for keeping true to your word @fastbuds . THE LIGHT What can I say about this amazing piece of tech. A small unit, solidly made and delivering a punch way better than I honestly expected. I thought it was going to be ok to sprout them and bring them up together then remove most of them to grow with my other lights while I flowered a single plant under it. Seeing how bloody capable it is , has thrown that plan out of the window altogether...... I plan now to grow all 4 main plants to harvest and really push the limits of this sunshine in a shade. For 150w of power , it is having no problems providing plenty of par for all of the girls to max their photosynthesis needs. All of them are in homemade super soil and the lights are their main input from my end so something is keeping them very happy indeed. In a box or cupboard , this light could work wonders on a single plant or couple of trained but I feel this would be hiding a lot of potential and underestimating its abilities. A very happy grow here . Let's see how it progresses. Nice work Viparspectra. Until next time. Be safe and well.

Day 29 (2020-06-07): Changed out reservoir (5.6 PH). Picked up some 3% H2O2 so added 3ml/gallon to help combat some of the growth I am getting. Also wiped down the outside of the fabric pots to kill the mold. Did some new LST and defoliation to even things out. CBD Crack is in pre-flower. The G14 might be a bit behind. Day 30 (2020-06-08): Reservoir PH around 5.65. Removed a leaf or two and did some tucking. Day 31 (2020-06-09): PH at 5.8. The G14 Blumat drip tube had gotten stuck in the dirt and was not dripping. Hand watered back to normal. Some slight LST adjustments to even things out and removed a few leaves. Day 32 (2020-06-10): PH at 5.96. Yellow leaf tips on newer growth haven't really gotten any better. I am also noticing some other yellow and brown spotting on older leaves. I am not as worried about the spotting since it is likely related to previous PH fluctuation that has been taken care of but I am now wondering if the yellow tips are something new. Maybe the start of nutrient burn? I do not believe it is light related since I adjusted this a few days ago. Day 33 (2020-06-11): After some helpful advice from the community I checked the calibration of my PH pen and found it off by about .5! This must have happened sometime in the last week or two but would explain the issues since as a result my PH was adjusted way to low (around 4.9 to 5). FIxed pen, flushed plants and changed out the reservoir. Hopefully things will get back on track. Also took the opportunity while I had the plants out to even out the LST and do some more defoliation. Day 34 (2020-06-12): Things are looking OK. I am not sure if the yellow on the tips will go away but it is not getting worse. Reservoir PH is at 5.75. Day 35 (2020-06-13): Res PH at 6.1 but slight smell. Probably will have to change out tomorrow. Things are looking good for the plants. G14 is definitely behind on flowering compared to the CBD.

25th of September 24th week for the Critical 22nd week for the Lemon Critical has very fat buds but not so much stacking only 3 or 4, healthy dark green wide leaves Lemon had a slight yellowing and buds are not as closely stacked, they are smaller but each branch has 7 or 8 Random one is currently the best as buds size and stacking. Nice size, 8-9 closely stacked and with many sugar leaves. It started to show some yellow leaves, so I mixed some coffee grounds in it and into the Lemon one too. It should fix the Nitrogen deficiency Next week I’ll ad the PK Booster

Growth not looking good past 3 days😮‍💨 Any Tips? (Day 23) Did a lot of pruning today. Growth looks very good at NL (Day 25) Today i gave them 1 liter of Ph 6,5 Tapwater. Also did some light defoliation and LST. The smell is insane already ( Day 26) Ladys are overwatered should learn more about watering😮‍💨Special Thx to GreenConnectionSupport. I wrote them on Instagramm and they answer quick.💚(Day 27) Last day of week 4, ladys are beginning to Flower. Defoliate radical, so she puts energy into new Leaves. Gave them 800ml Ph 6.2 Water. ( Day 28)

Week 2 of vegetative growth for Pineapple Upside Down – Round 2. The plant is still struggling at this stage. Development is slower than expected for week two, and overall vigor remains below what would normally be considered healthy growth. Reading the plant has been difficult, as no single factor clearly stands out as the root cause. Several parameters are being questioned: excess humidity, temperature management, light intensity, or nutrient balance. Overfeeding seems unlikely, as the last watering was done with a very light EC, around 0.3 to 0.4. Light levels are also modest, approximately 180–200 PPFD, which should normally be safe for a young plant. The pH was checked and appears to be within an acceptable range. Because the substrate is already sufficiently moist from previous watering around the plant, no additional irrigation has been done. At this point, adding more water would likely do more harm than good. A small adjustment was made by slightly opening the dome to improve airflow and reduce excess humidity. This should help the plant breathe better and potentially stabilize its environment. Temperature may also be adjusted if needed, depending on how the plant responds over the coming days. This second week highlights ongoing difficulties in managing early growth stages. There is clearly room for improvement in the startup protocol, and this phase is being treated as a learning process for future cycles. For now, the strategy remains simple: minimize interventions, maintain stable conditions, and allow the plant time to recover its natural rhythm. The next update will focus on whether growth resumes normally or if further adjustments are required.

Alweer het einde van week 3 bereikt zonder problemen. Na de snoei aan het begin van de week, hadden de dames zich de volgende alweer hersteld en waren de topjes alweer fors groter. Ik ben echt tevreden over de genetica van de Powerplants. Ze drinken inmiddels ook veel meer bij de 0,5 liter per dag staan de potten de dag eropgewoon weer droog! De voeding gaat naaar e.c. 1.8 en ik voeg op iedere 10 liter ook 10 ml (Fmax) xl cell bij. Ik ben benieuwd of er mensen ervaring hebben met een hogere dosering? Antwoorden graag in de comments! Ik had nog wat spiegeltjes over en die heb ik maar aan het cob frame bevestigd om het strooilicht terug te kaatsen. Baad het niet, dan schaad het niet zeg maar. Ook de ventilatie een upgrade gegeven met een grote zwenk ventilator aan het plafond. Ik ga denk ik ook maat wat roof wantsen aanschaffen als pestcontrol, voordat ik last krijg van ongenodigde bezoekers!

Привет садоводы ! Началась новая неделя сегодня я заменил питательный раствор на новый и сделал его немного покрепче все в пределах таблицы кормления теперь он в значении 700 ppm а PH также я держу в пределах 5,6 тот цветок ,что в земле после пересадки я пока не поливал растения выглядят хорошо ,но растут немного медленно а в общем вроде не плохо 😎

one more week up we go, and after intruducing the AC to the Girls, and rase some of them up closer to the ligth ( i did this because the most of my SG are 3 phingers from the ligth lol, so bringing the ligth down was not an option )now i realize that the BB and the AP are showing some spots on the older leaves with i think it migth be nutrients problem, so i'm intruducing Calmag Agent and see how they react. Appart from that they all look amazing, the smell is starting to show off in all of them, it's like a rainbow of fruity smels with a sweet taste going from one strein to another, so far the one i think is the winer in tha smel factor is the PG, man, she's becoming and amazing white frosty smly litle plant <3 the same is happening to all of her siters in my litle love garden. So let's see how the wee goes, i'l try and keep it updated the most i can, Stay safe Peace out D So day 31 F and i intruduce Calmag and lower EC to 1.8 , now let's seeee :)

Oct 5-11 Vegetative steering? Aiming for: leaf Temp -80f CO2 -1250ppm VPD +1.04 (65%/75F) Vegetative Steering 6P1/ 2P2/1P3 Each P1 water event is 15 minutes apart. Seems to far apart. I think i Need More water events, with less time in between events in order to get a strong veg signal? Watering for 2min(110)ml May need 3min waterings(currently not getting runoff) I have to hand water every two days. Day 11 flo 18.5inches tall 12inches from light(moved to 16) 1300ppm Day 18 Defol Sprout chickpea(2days) Soaked 1cup for 4 hours then rinsed. Completely covered then Soaked overnight. Rinsed then poured water out and layed jar on the side for one day. Blended with water(aloe vera and coconut) Day 19&20 foilarspray Alfalfa/Chickpea SST with Kelp,aloe,coconut,silicate,microbes brewed for 1.5 days Day 21 Fed the Tea blend Leaf temp 80 65kluxx Co2 100 Plants look like they responded well to the foilar. The flowers at this stage are my best performance yet .crop steering may be working?
