*english version below* HydroLab – Woche „0“: Der Startschuss zur Blütephase „Bitte anschnallen – die Versuchspflanzen betreten jetzt die reproduktive Phase.“ Willkommen zurück im HydroLab, wo Photosynthese auf Wissenschaft trifft und die Pflanzen mittlerweile besser trainiert sind als mein Rücken. Diese Woche war ein echter System-Meilenstein: Letzte Vegi-Woche, Lichtwechsel, Wasserrevolution, Myko-Spa und Stretchvorbereitungen. 🌞 Licht: Die Blaulichter gehen, die Rotlicht-Ära beginnt Seit Donnerstag herrscht im Zelt 12/12 – offiziell Blütezeit. Die blauen Add-Lites wurden verfahrenstechnisch termininiert und durch rote ersetzt. Die neuen IR-AddLites haben außerdem eine Schlüsselfunktion: Sie laufen in den letzten 15 Minuten wie ein botanisches Sonnenuntergangs-Erlebnis für fortgeschrittene Pflanzenpsychologie. Kurz gesagt: 👉 Die Mädels werden jetzt schlafen geschickt wie Royalität. 💧 Wasserchemie: Die Vollentsalzungsanlage ist online Mission abgeschlossen: Die VE-Anlage wurde installiert, kalibriert und erfolgreich mit Triumphmusik eingeschaltet. Seitdem fließt durch das System: ➡️ EC-neutrales Laborwasser ➡️ pH-Perfect arbeitet wie befreit ➡️ Keine Ca/Mg-Überschüsse, keine Schwankungen Das HydroLab ist nun offiziell ISO-zertifiziert für Wasserreinheit, die selbst Kaffee-Nerds neidisch machen würde. Nährstoffversorgung aufgestockt – die Blüte beginnt ernst zu werden Der EC wurde moderat auf 1,5 angehoben, passend zum Stretch-Start. Zusätzlich zu Micro/Grow/Bloom, B52, Bud Candy und Great White gab es diese Woche:🔥 Bud Blood von Advanced Nutrients Ein kaliumreicher Booster, der laut Hersteller „die Blüte früh zündet“. Im Labor beschreiben wir es anders: 👉 „Molekulare Überzeugungsarbeit, damit die Pflanzen endlich tun, was wir wollen.“ Und es funktioniert. Die ersten Vorblüten sind bereits in der Planungsschleife. 🌱 Wurzelstatus – Mykos am Werk Die Wurzeln sehen aus wie: wuschelig cremig üppig voller Mykorrhiza Ein gesundes Myko-Netz ist immer ein gutes Zeichen – gerade beim Living-RDWC, wo die symbiotischen Organismen jetzt richtig Gas geben. 🕸️ Training: Zweites Netz installiert Das zweite Scrog-Netz wurde feierlich eingezogen. Da wir es hier mit einem fast rein sativischen Stretch-Monster zu tun haben, wird das Netz bald nicht nur genutzt, sondern ausgereizt. Die Spitzen schießen bereits motiviert durch das Gitter. Man könnte sagen: 👉 „Das botanische Volleyballfeld ist eröffnet.“ 🎬 Fazit der Woche Vegi erfolgreich beendet Blüte eingeleitet Licht optimiert Wasser perfektioniert Nährstoffe erweitert Wurzeln traumhaft Stretch: „Hold my beer…“ Das HydroLab ist startklar für eine der spannendsten Phasen überhaupt. Wenn diese SLH so weiter macht, wird das Netz in wenigen Tagen aussehen wie ein explodierter Kräuterteppich. ----------------------------------------------- HydroLab – Week 0: Initiating Bloom Protocol “Please fasten your lab coats — the test subjects have entered reproductive mode.” Welcome back to the HydroLab, where plants are trained with more precision than Olympic athletes and the line between botany and madness gets thinner by the day. This week marks a major milestone: the final veg week, the light flip, a water revolution, microbial spa treatments, and preparations for the incoming stretch. 🌞 Lighting Update: Goodbye Blue, Hello Bloom Mode As of Thursday, the system is officially running 12/12 — bloom phase initiated. The blue add-on lights have been politely removed from service, replaced with red spectrum units. Also new: IR AddLites, running during the final 15 minutes of the day to simulate a luxurious sunset for plants that take their circadian rhythm very seriously. In short: 👉 The ladies are now being tucked in like royalty. 💧 Water Chemistry Upgrade: The Deionization Unit Is Online This week, the HydroLab achieved a new level of hydration enlightenment: The deionized water system is fully installed and operational. It now feeds the entire RDWC with: EC-neutral lab-grade water perfectly predictable pH behavior zero unwanted minerals zero drift chaos The HydroLab is now officially certified for water purity that would make a barista weep. Nutrient Program Enhanced — Bloom Mode Engaged The EC was raised moderately to 1.5, just enough to fuel the stretch without cooking the roots. On top of the standard AN trio (Micro / Grow / Bloom) plus B52, Bud Candy, and Great White, the lineup now includes: 🔥 Advanced Nutrients – Bud Blood A bloom initiator designed to say: “Stop messing around and start flowering.” Laboratory interpretation: 👉 “Early-phase hormonal persuasion via potassium-rich diplomacy.” Early pistils are already in preflight mode. 🌱 Root Status Report – Mykos Doing Myko Things The roots look glorious: fluffy creamy vigorous thoroughly colonized by mycorrhiza Living RDWC in full effect — the symbiotic crew is thriving. 🕸️ Training Update: Second Scrog Net Installed The second screen is now in place. Given how sativa-dominant this strain is, the stretch is expected to fill the remaining space very quickly. The tops are already pushing upward with purpose. It looks less like a canopy and more like we’re preparing a botanical trampoline. 🎬 Weekly Conclusion Veg phase complete Bloom officially initiated Lighting optimized Water chemistry perfected Nutrients upgraded Roots looking elite Stretch incoming The HydroLab is entering one of the most exciting phases of the run. If this Super Lemon Haze keeps going like this, the scrog will look like an exploding herbal carpet within days.

From the 9th day I started adding Hesi Root Complex 1ml and 2ml PowerZyme per 1L of water. We poured out water only as needed and did not water the stem! Day 13. I increased Hesi Root Complex to 5ml/1L Hesi PowerZyme 2ml/1L We poured out water only as needed and did not water the stem!

This week i‘ve only used Flawless Finish to remove excess nutrient salts from the soil.

hey growmies I decided to switch to flowering, I am using ADV nutes with the dosage recommended by them and they seem to me in great shape, tonight I will do a defoliation in order to breathe better and get as much light as possible. I'll keep you up-to-date. good growth and happy day 💚🌳

Only thing i did this week is just pulling the branches and let her go

Hello Growers and Tokers! 👋 👩‍🌾 🧑‍🌾.🔥💨 Sorry for the delay on the weekly updates, had some things I had to attend but I'm back and at it! These pictures were taken a week after the 21 day flower defoliation, day 27 of flower to be exact. Great progress this week with the bud site, glad to see the defoliation is giving it's fruits. Buds are filling in space which is just what I want now, fill up as much space as possible that way in the fast weeks they can fatten up and be nice dense colas. CC1 & CC3 have the best trichome production and bud growth so far despite having the structure all messed up and uneven. I got some nice pics in of that half loop I was talking about last week. Every time I see it I think, ¨Man, I want to grow a canna bonsai." CC2 is doing great, bud formation is going a bit slower than the other two but it's still nice. I'm rooting for this one in highest yield because between the three because she has the most evenly divided canopy. The Aroma got MUCH stronger this week. When I open up the tent it's a sweet caramel punch to the face. Don't mind that punch at all! 😍😍 I've had to raise all my plants because the San Fernando Lemon Kush stretched more than I expected. Bad calculation on my part given it's a sativa I should have expected it would triple in height. So now I've got all my ladies on top of shoe boxes, Playstation box, old ballast boxes, pretty much any sturdy box I could fix. Before putting them in there I cleaned them down, making sure nothing unwanted would be joining the garden. Things look good so far, next week I'll be adding an organic PK boost to the feed. For that extra boom in bloom. Hope you're enjoying this progress like me. Have a great day! One love!

Ph problem

day 29 of flowering

This week I put up a long video that features my new tent and new clones from these current clones that are flowing. The hairs are turning color now and I have given them there last feeding, only straight ph balanced water from here on out to flush the plants so they taste nice.

Crece a una velocidad increíble, semana a semana el cambio es hermoso. Más rápido que en tierra sin dudas 😊

As of day 21, the Blackberry Kush is growing sizable despite the very deformed growth. After really double checking every parameter last week, I feel comfortable saying it is a genetic issue. Thank you to those who commented and responded to the grow question over the past weeks, it really helps! I want to see how this plant grows and what it yields despite the issue, it should be interesting to see what kind of buds it can end up making. I will perform some LST soon as the plant is growing taller even after topping. I with the twisted leaves and wonky growth, it's actually letting plenty of light penetrate to the lower/center portions of the plant which may have it's own positive outcomes (what can I say, I'm an optimist!) Happy growing everyone, and stay safe! 👍🌱 Day 22: started LST to promote lateral growth. Day 24: even though the twisted leaf growth is keeping the foliage from getting very dense, I am happy that this plant is still a good size and is definitely not stunted! If anything it is acting like a defoliated plant, letting plenty of light penetrate to the lower growth tips and center of the plant. Day 25: earliest signs of flowering. Day 26: 5x per day watering, 15 second duration.

Great strain! Great aroma!

Día 39, sigo con el problema de fertilización, aún no trabajo en ello. Puse un sistema de generación de CO2 para apoyar la floración.

Ок, начинаем битву двух якодзун 😁 В этот раз я не буду никуда спешить, хочу всё сделать идеально. Присаживайтесь поудобнее, полёт будет долгим. В помещении, где находится бокс, сейчас довольно сухо, поэтому у меня появился увалажнитель воздуха, объема резервуара хватает как раз на сутки. К концу первой недели подсыпал кокос в горшочки - мне не нужны слишком вытянутые растения, и так мне будет легче их доставать при пересадке, которую планирую на следующей неделе. Тогда же и начну давать базовое питание. Пока всё хорошо. Спасибо, что заглянули, и будьте здоровы! 🙏 Продолжение следует ...😶

La evolución de la planta continúa siendo impresionante. Esta semana, los cogollos han seguido desarrollándose, ganando aún más densidad y cubriéndose con una capa visible de resina que promete una cosecha de alta calidad. La compactación y estructura siguen mejorando día tras día. El Green Sensation de Plagron sigue demostrando su eficacia, aportando los nutrientes necesarios en esta etapa crítica sin provocar excesos ni bloqueos. La planta responde con vigor, mostrando una floración robusta y saludable. El perfil aromático de la Runtz se intensifica: ahora no solo domina el dulce y afrutado, sino que aparecen matices más complejos, casi cremosos, que anticipan un perfil terpénico muy especial. El entorno se impregna de su esencia, lo que es un claro indicador del avance de la maduración. 📆 Semana 9: Los tricomas comienzan a mostrar una transición sutil de transparente a lechoso, una señal clara de que el final del ciclo se acerca. Las flores están desarrollándose con buena densidad y un nivel de resina muy prometedor. La planta se mantiene sana, sin rastro de plagas, deficiencias ni estrés. Esta semana también destaco el excelente trabajo de Green Sensation de Plagron, que ha dado un empujón final a la formación de cogollos y resina. Gran aporte para esta etapa crítica. Con la cuenta regresiva activada, he iniciado el lavado de raíces para asegurar una cosecha lo más limpia y sabrosa 💣🚀.

Week 5 purple showing , 2 slight differences in the structures on each plant . Had both these phenotypes before

Couldn't wait to get back to the girls!!! Plenty of pics!

Day 63. The canopy is coming along nicely for a first Scrog, bit of an anxiety ride watching out for new budsites growing INTO the net every day though, but tucking does the job

Flowering came from out of nowhere but I am glad to see it. All of my readings for the plants as far as TDS and pH are pretty dialed in. We've been having a lot of rainstorms on the East coast which has been driving the humidity up like crazy also on the bloom light has raised the temperature in the tent (the temperatures have been running around 79 degrees during the daytime which is causing a bit of heat stress). I've been scouring the internet for dehumidifiers however I've restrained from any purchases because of budgetary reasons. If you recommend a humidifier please put it in my comments! The plants are looking really good and I plan on supplementing with CO2 soon and possibly a bloom supplement; Make sure you check out my IG page @KS_Kultivation and let the girls know that you are rooting for them. -ksk
