Bueno Gente..! aquí llevo dos semanas de vegeta. como pueden ver algunas plantas se tomaron en algunos lados de color café de la cual no podría decir a que corresponde tal efecto . Durante los procimos días quiero cambiar de macetas a una de 5L para ya ir agarrando forma en el crecimiento.

Day 37-27/11/21 I watered them with just water today cause I’m panicking about the burnt tips on some of them so I’ll give them a flush!!! Day 39-29/11/21 nothing new today seems like there doing better since flush!!!!! Day 41-1/12/21 plants are doing much better now I was getting worried but they look a lot better than they did a week ago Day 43-3/12/21 today I’m felling abit sad there not doing Aswell as the big bud did!!! Hopefully they get better but I’m a bit lost as what to do tbh cause they all get the same food!!

A friend gave me a clone of his Black Domina. First week i added the recommended dose for a clone of the nectar line. I got a little nute burn so i flushed it a little with ph to 6,3 water. Looking a little better. We will see what happens in the next few days. Pictures are about a day and a half after i gave it the recommended nute dose for clones.

Día 35: Se ven fuertes y creciendo bien, aparecen algunas hojas amarillas, especialmente las más grandes y las cercanas a la base de la planta. Se riega con 1.7 Lt. de agua, día por medio. Día 39: Se trasplantan a maceta definitiva de 11 Lts. No se ve un gran desarrollo radicular, se agregan micorrizas de Great White en forma espolvoreada y vía riego. Se utiliza sustrato All Mix para este último trasplante, el cual fue activado hace unos días y se le agrego micorrizas granulares de Great White.

Summer is happening at full speed so a short entry here. Getting close anyways so wont be too much to cover. 7/15/2024 Day 55 Temp: 70.3 F RH: 64.3% VPD: 0.89 kPa Plant #1 Height: 37” inches Plant #2 Height: 31” inches Light distance 10” & 16” I’m going to water 2.5 gallons an hour before the lights come on tonight I’ve already prepared my water jug with a half a teaspoon of bio-phos, about five ML actually put a little more of the elixir in today and then the Q so I put all those things in the water and will give it to him before the lights come back on. 7/17/2024 Day 57 Temp: 81.8 F RH: 63.7% VPD: 1.31 kPa Plant #1 Height: 37” inches Plant #2 Height: 31” inches Did some work in the tent to try and alleviate some of the heat stress. Bent over the main cola to even out the canopy. Fed the regular feeding and some Oly Mtn Fish Compost.

The plant is looking absolutely gorgeous, healthy and strong, no issues so far, she was Transplanted into her definitive 15L pot for this season amended with the complete line of biotabs, I've added to this 15L pot 3 slow release tablets (one for every 5L of soil) and also mixed 2 table spoons of startrex for every 10L of soil and right before transplanting this lady I've sprinkled a couple of grams of mycotrex on the transplant hole, after the transplant was done I watered with 1g per liter of water of bactrex and 1ml oer liter of water of orgatrex

Thank you. Gave her a cocktail to help with stress. Added 1st net for lateral support, not so much now, but for later. Blue light is absorbed by photoreceptor proteins called phototropins, which trigger a hormonal response that causes cells on the shaded side to elongate, making the plant bend toward the light. Try and fill this side a little. She is quite big already, just needs to find her stride again after the undue torture. 5 apex stems with 20-30 mini cola, let them develop a little, with the apical dominance shattered, all those 20-30 will all compete with each other as soon as that stretch is initiated. Key to a good stretch is making sure the plant is cycling efficiently, with large ATP conversions occurring lights out. For now, I'm keeping light intensity high. A plant will slow its vertical growth in very high light intensities, leading to a more compact form with thicker stems and leaves. This response is a protective mechanism against light stress, which can damage the photosynthetic apparatus and lead to symptoms like leaf scorching, yellowing, and brittleness. Instead of growing taller, the plant invests its energy into creating a more robust, stress-tolerant structure. Providing plants with necessary antioxidants helps protect the photosynthetic apparatus by scavenging reactive oxygen species (ROS) that cause damage from excess light. UV light exposure can impact the xanthophyll cycle by either enhancing its photoprotective role or causing damage, depending on the intensity and type of UV radiation. UV exposure can trigger the synthesis of more xanthophyll cycle pigments to increase the plant's capacity to dissipate excess energy, but it can also cause direct damage, particularly to Photosystem II, and may lead to a decrease in the de-epoxidation state (DEPS ratio) which indicates a reduced capacity to dissipate excess energy. Plants can respond to UV stress by increasing the synthesis of xanthophyll cycle pigments, such as violaxanthin and zeaxanthin, to improve their photoprotective capacity. UV-induced changes in xanthophyll cycle pigments can be linked to a plant's overall tolerance to high radiation stress. The xanthophyll cycle helps protect against photoinhibition, which is especially important when the plant is exposed to high levels of both UV and visible light. High doses of UV radiation can directly damage photosynthetic components, including the proteins, lipids, and pigments in the thylakoid membranes. Exposure to UV radiation can have a mixed effect on the de-epoxidation state (DEPS ratio) of the xanthophyll cycle pigments. In some cases, UV can inhibit the conversion of violaxanthin to zeaxanthin, resulting in a lower DEPS ratio and a reduced capacity for energy dissipation. However, the total pool of xanthophyll cycle pigments may increase, and this enhanced pool size could provide a greater potential for photoprotection despite a lower DEPS ratio. The xanthophyll cycle works alongside other mechanisms, such as the accumulation of flavonoids (UV screens), to protect the plant from UV-induced damage. Blue light repairs 100% UV-induced damage in plants through a process called photoreactivation, which uses a light-dependent enzyme called photolyase. This enzyme uses energy from blue and UV-A light to directly reverse the damaging pyrimidine dimers in the DNA caused by UV-B radiation, a key mechanism for maintaining the plant's genetic integrity. After carbon, light, water, temperature, and nutrients, the limiting factor of a plant's growth is often its own internal factors or the amount of a key ingredient. Chlorophyll concentration is one such factor, as the amount of this pigment limits how much light can be captured for photosynthesis. Other factors include chloroplast number, respiration rate, and the concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, as plants are often in a CO2-deficient condition. 60x60x18=64800seconds x 700 = 45,360,000moles. 45DLI Exposure to 165 µW/cm² of ultraviolet-B (UV-B) light for 3600 seconds = 1 hour, a extremely high, acute dose triggering stress responses and protective mechanisms. . The plant's photoreceptor protein, UVR8, senses the UV-B radiation. This triggers a signaling cascade that activates specific genes to protect the plant from damage. In response to the UV-B signal, the plant ramps up the biosynthesis of protective compounds like flavonoids, phenolic acids, and anthocyanins. These compounds absorb UV radiation and accumulate in the epidermal layers of leaves to shield inner photosynthetic tissues. The plant may increase leaf thickness or deposit more cuticular wax, creating a physical barrier to the radiation. The plant will produce more enzymatic and non-enzymatic antioxidants to neutralize the reactive oxygen species (ROS) produced by the UV-B radiation. The plant activates enzymes, including photolyases, to repair DNA damage caused by the UV-B. These repair mechanisms are critical for preventing permanent genetic mutations. While protective measures are activated, a high dose delivered over a short period can cause stress that overwhelms the plant's defenses. Photosynthesis is highly sensitive to UV-B. A high dose can inactivate Photosystem II (PSII), damage thylakoid membranes within the chloroplasts, and reduce chlorophyll content, which lowers the plant's overall photosynthetic capacity. Despite repair mechanisms, high UV-B doses can inflict persistent damage on the plant's DNA. One study found that acute, high-dose UV-B had a greater effect on genome stability than chronic, low-dose exposure. The overproduction of reactive oxygen species can cause oxidative stress, leading to the oxidation of lipids and proteins and disrupting cellular function.

Week 3 has come and gone and it was a sight to see!! All the pistills came in nice and strong. I have to get in there and defoliate every couple a days a bit. This will be the last week of defoliation. Once I can see the main bud sights I will do my final trim. Started reducing the Nitrogen as the stretch faze comes to an end and up the bloom ferts. I cant raise my light much more so I hope they stop stretching this week. Im excited to see the flowers grow into these pistills and watcch the calayx swell.

*Week 4 Flower 09/24* Both Mimosa girls appear to be running fine with Mimosa (1) running a little behind but is catching up accordingly. Small oversight in early growth resulted in a minor stunt but she is improving dramatically. Water Feed has increased by half a gallon ( 1gallon clean - .5 gallon nute feed) *Week 4 Flower 09/28 - Mid week update* Both plants are flowering accordingly - Mimosa (1) is a bit taller then Mimosa (2) Buds are becoming dense and covered in trichomes. No deficiencies - No areas of concern - Potassium and Phosphate feeds continue *Week 5 Flower end of week recap - 09/30* Both Mimosa's are flowering nicely - Budsites covered in frosty trichomes. Mimosa (2) looks shorter but that is because her COLA was tied down to expose bottom budsites.
