Well, another week has passed and it has been growing not exactly as I expected, but they warned me about using only base fertilizers with an inert soil and a higher ambient temperature, I could have a not so good result, well, it's one more experience and I liked it and let's see how it will be until the end of the cycle because the next one I already ordered a starter kit from the advanced nutrients line! Let's Go!

Fungus gnats coming with the soil might take the chance to come out now for breeding. i'm waiting with a 9 mm rifle. in the past i found 6 gnats in 2 of 8 x 50 l biobizz lightmix bags coming out of the soil. i could eliminate every single gnat successfully ;) rotating harvest: the little ones will be harvested completely when ready. at this point only the top branches of the big ones will be cut...and the new (basic-watered) pots of the new grow will move into the tent. 2-3 weeks later the secod half of the big ones will be cut and the second half of the new grow will move in... nutes: biobizz / soil: biobizz lightmix bloom,grow,topmax,activera,algamic + aminopower instead of bio heaven (too expensive) individual feeding schedule/once a week: veg: 200 - 600 ppm bloom: 600 - 900 ppm water: ro-water with: veg: 100-150 ppm calmag bloom: 150 ppm calmag

Stayed short and stocky throughout it’s life. Had lots of leaf to deal with, but other than that there were no issues and it was an easy grow made easier by the grow dots. Added them early in veg and only added filtered water that was not pH adjusted after that. Grew some nice frosty buds that reek like juicy fruit and garlic.

Ale, cortada. Me gustó la planta sobre todo el vegetativo ya que fue muy bien sin mostrar problemas y tal... Ahora, cuando llegó la floración ahí si arrancó todo, igual que la otra, la hyperion, con oidio y araña roja. Recalco que tenía dos plantas mas bien grandes y hermosotas que también lo sufrieron, pero a modo chiste... Una hoja pocha por bichos, alguna con un poquito de oidio.. pero en general resistieron muy bien eso, las otras. En fin, esta planta si que es hermosa, el cogollo central es precioso, una lastima que mi movil haya jodido la mayoria de las ultimas fotos antes de cortarla, por eso alguna se estas últimas fotos se ven mal, miradlas de lejos, mejoran jajajajajaja Bueno, les hice bud washing, o lavado de cogollos y subí las fotos para que se vea, no es video... Quizás en un futuro haya algo con YouTube, pero eso, es basicamente 3 cubos, como no tengo cubos cogí una garrafa, la corte, y le eché 7 litros de agua y 100ml de agua oxigenada (peroxido al 3%), cogí dos tappers grandes, los llene de agua y heche media cucharada sopera en cada uno de bicarbonato de sodio y medio limón exprimido igual, entre los dos tappers y lo mezclé todo bien. Finalmente cogí una olla porque no tenía mas tappers grandes disponibles xD y agua osmotizada (o de botella) pero fria. -Paso 1: enjuaga el cogollo, rama, o lo que quieras limpiar, unos 20/30 segundo en la garrafa con el agua oxigenada. -Paso 2: sacudes un poco lo que hayas enjuagado y lo metes a enjuagar a uno de los tappers con bicarbonato y limón (puedes usar 3, 4 tappers, o un cubo.. al fin y al cabo es cantidad para no hacerlo todo en 3 litros y que acabaes limpiando mierda con mierda :) ). Aquí pues otros 20/30 segundos. -Paso 3: finalmente enjuagas en el ultimo tapper, barreño, lo que sea, con agua LIMPIA (de ahí osmotizada o embotellada) y fria, para que arrastre mejor los ultimos restos. Ya finalmente lo pones a secar unas 3/4 horas en un tendedero o donde mejor pilles, pero con ventilación para que el agua termine de irse, o al menos lo gordo. Ya una vez pasado ese tiempo y que veas que los cogollos gordos, en la parte de abajo (en la cabeza si están boca abajo) están secos, sin agua sobrante vamos, los llevas a donde vayas a secar, en mi caso al armario, que por ese motivo les voy a dar un poco mas de tiempo fuera para evitar subir mucho la humedad ya que tengo la Papaya Zoap secando y le quedará unos 4 o 5 dias aún. Cuando seque, subiré los resultados y fotos del manicurado y todo... Yo creo que va a salir una buena producción y además como la alargué bastante, espero que tenga efecto soporífero que ademas de sabor y aromas, es el efecto que busco en la hierba, que ayude a dormir. Aclaro: el peso en humedo es inventado jajajaja sinceramente, además de que no iba a pesarla en humedo, osea, recien cortada xD, tampoco la iba a pesar teniendo en cuenta que sumergí los cogollos en soluciones para limpiarlos, por lo que pesarían como 4 o 5 veces mas que el peso de recien cortado xD.

Gorilla Jealousy F1 has fill in well over the last week. She got her roots pruned today. Along with some lst, and defoliation. She has been growing really well. I will likely move her into my small tent once the photoperiod in there now is done flowering in 3 weeks roughly. My plants have flowered really well in that tent, and environment. Nothing more to report at the moment. Thank you Spider Farmer, and Seedsman. 🤜🏻🤛🏻🌱🌱🌱 Thank you grow diaries community for the 👇likes👇, follows, comments, and subscriptions on my YouTube channel👇. ❄️🌱🍻 https://www.seedsman.com/?a_aid=Mrsour420.

Plant suffered of poor quality water, problems of transpiration and nutrients absorption due to pH unbalanced values, low humidity level, both light and ventilation intensity excess. Humidity is under control: stabilised between 45% and 50% continuously. pH has been fixed to 6.0 in all H2O solutions. Exhaust fan has been equipped of a rotative knob control in order to settle power: once desired humidity level is overpassed ventilation can be returned to max speed in order to maintain 24,5 Celsius degrees. LED light cycle 24/0 TOTAL AGRO at maximum intensity has been abandoned for energy and its cost savings purpose in relation with the final scope and entropy reduction effectiveness : Main+ 100 Blue+ 100 Red+ 100 LED Light Spectrum has been settled in order to give a natural Sun Dawn/Sunset effect maintaining the 24/0 cycle: 09:00 Main+ 50 Blue+ 85 Red+ 50 10:00 Main+ 50 Blue+ 90 Red+ 50 11:00 Main+ 50 Blue+ 95 Red+ 50 12:00 Main+ 50 Blue+ 100 Red+ 50 13:00 Main+ 50 Blue+ 100 Red+ 50 14:00 Main+ 50 Blue+ 100 Red+ 50 15:00 Main+ 50 Blue+ 100 Red+ 50 16:00 Main+ 50 Blue+ 100 Red+ 50 17:00 Main+ 50 Blue+ 100 Red+ 50 18:00 Main+ 50 Blue+ 100 Red+ 50 19:00 Main+ 45 Blue+ 95 Red+ 45 20:00 Main+ 40 Blue+ 90 Red+ 40 21:00 Main+ 35 Blue+ 85 Red+ 35 22:00 Main+ 30 Blue+ 80 Red+ 30 23:00 Main+ 25 Blue+ 75 Red+ 25 00:00 Main+ 40 Blue+ 70 Red+ 40 01:00 Main+ 35 Blue+ 65 Red+ 35 02:00 Main+ 30 Blue+ 60 Red+ 30 03:00 Main+ 25 Blue+ 55 Red+ 25 04:00 Main+ 30 Blue+ 60 Red+ 30 05:00 Main+ 35 Blue+ 65 Red+ 35 06:00 Main+ 40 Blue+ 70 Red+ 40 07:00 Main+ 45 Blue+ 75 Red+ 45 08:00 Main+ 50 Blue+ 80 Red+ 50 Note: ORTOLED SERIE K is intrinsically provided of Sunrise/Sunset function which enables a smooth, uniform and gradual variation of light intensity during time without generating any kind of shock from sudden switching on or off, or changes in power and spectrum value. Blue light parameter overwhelms in this stage in order to encourage vegetative growth, compactness, and bushiness and photomorphogenesis, its development, including leaf expansion, stem elongation, and overall plant architecture. Decreased light intensity during night cycle should help regulate phototropism and reduce light stress. The plant well reacted to the care it received and the measures put in place, which given the visible critical health condition, were drastic and extreme. Possible combination of over feeding, overwatering and excess of light, responding to stress to be identified, on the basis of following visible symptoms : - leaves have turned thick, fat, dark deep green; - leaves start curling; - leaves hint a deep yellow hue; - new leaves are born with light green and yellow tips; - leaves report burnings such as fresh black spots which turn into dry brown spots; - 1 leaf at the third node is born with 4 tips, the second one is a 5 tips leaf correctly. Additional considerations to be uploaded asap regarding : - Biochar pH 8,5; - Biochar nutrients absorption and retention capacity in relation with organic growing; - Biochar and Coco Coir micro and macro nutrients binding capacity; - moon effect during plant life cycle; - huge vitality has been noticed during crescent moon appearance; - plant is asking for more and more feeding; - growing will be abandoned for no more than 96 hours therefore a self irrigating cotton rope wick system has been implemented. Added nutrients : Biobizz_ Alg-A-Mic - FishMix Bionova_ Ph+/Ph-

Hello everybody and welcome to my grow diaries. this week went really well I noticed with these new genetics that there are a lot hungry .so I started to feed them for their second feed 400 parts per million they seem to have reacted very well. I'm going to feed them every three days but today I will feed them 400 parts per million as well just to make sure that they're okay and they have adjusted well .I don't want to push them. Have learned from that . As I say things are going very well .I appreciate you looking at my diary there will be an update every week and you always have to keep in mind that is 420 somewhere 🌱👍

All 3 plants are adapting very well to LST, the shape its growing into have been allowing the light to reach further into the lower growth nodes and branches. I like to start bending the branches close to the main stem as early as week 3 of VEG. Now these 3 Northern Lights Auto seeds are from Sun West Genetics, they were all germinated, planted, trained, fed the same way they have been on the same controlled environment since day 1, the 3 are totally different, I know each plant is unique in its own way, but I find strange that 1 plant is taller and stronger than the other 2, the smaller one is growing weak leaves with signs of mutation, all 3 plants show signs of Magnesium deficiency, these 3 plants are sharing a grow tent with a Haze Auto from Seedsman, all 4 plants are under the same diet, the Haze have no signs of deficiencies or mutations, I guess that shows what good genetics look like. For the Magnesium deficiency I have mixed my own Epson salts into water and applied as a foliar spray, internet said the spray should be used every other week, wait 2 weeks to see results. Signs of Nutes burn, I decided to stop feeding for this coming week. The 3 NL leaves are looking unhappy, kind of clawing under, they look lifeless, I have ruled off a few potential problems such as: Wind Burn Under Watering Water PH Light Burn, just moved the QB higher to 17 inches from the highest canopy today. If any of you fellow growers have advice for the leaves, please let me know. Stay Lit folks 👩‍🌾🏻

week intel: it was the time to prune the cover crops this week i chopped them - no problem all good stresses : just a little E.C stress around 1.4 once a week feeding: i feed them 3 times this week with this order : day 1 : i feed them heavy with silicate +base nutrients(calcium & micros + Bloom) about 707 ppm - 1.4 e.c to cause a little stress. day 3 : i feed them low dose of Feeding Booster around 275 ppm - 0.57 e.c to let them recover a little but not fully recover still a little stress will caused. day 5 : i feed them with normal dose of Top-Max + B-52 around 213 ppm - 0.42 e.c to let them recover the stresses to get ready for another stress next week. guide of the week : autos do so so so much better with 20 hours light per day pls dont run autos near femenized 1 of them must get sacrificed

Don't pay attention to the small pots. I'm gonna do another diarie for them because they are in another week. Now the regulation of humidity is great, i think that the plants do their own job regulating the humidity. I'm in love with the @TodoGrowLed led, so easy to install. Here we are in summer and the temperatures dont exceed 27-28 C° inside. I put some ice pack inside the indoor and the temperatures were between 20-26 :) In this week im gonna use neem oil with potassium soap, just for prevention. Im newy, don't judge me jaja i don't know if the distance between the knots it's ok (also, i don't know if that is the right word in english jaja)

The flower keeps on growing! I am excited for the next days. Today was the first day to use some nutrients in my water. I used Biobizz Grow, Bloom and Top Max like advised from Biobizz for Light Mix. I wonder if I should start to remove some of the bigger leafs… any recommendations from you guys? I am counting like at least 15 branches that are all on the same height… awesome!! What an even canopy. Some of the branches are on one side a bit lower though. Happy new year guys!! I just put in the net. I never used one before, as I only have outdoor experience. I am trying to bend down some of the higher branches with the net. Let’s see if it works out. Plant looked very good. But after I used the nutrients the plant looked a little bit more sad :( … maybe also nutrient lockout, because I have quite a big pot and usually with smaller pots I always watered the plant until the water ran out of it on the bottom.

Day 8 - First official day of veg and both ladies are right on time for a small adjustment in lighting, PH and nutrients. 10ml of Hydro A & Hydro B were added to both buckets (10L of water in each bucket) and the Milwaukee PH controller was set to work. Starting at a PH of around 7.8, it slowly worked down to a perfect 6.0 over about 50minutes. The lights were readjusted to be 60cm from the seedlings who are all between 8-10cm tall and the intensity of the lights increased to about 70% brightness. Day 9 - Cheech is taking nicely to the adjustment in light and nutrients, but CG 1 is looking a little bit too perky. Going to give her 24 hours to adjust. Day 10 - We have finally renamed CG 1. Fellow enthusiasts, meet Venezia. Day 12 - The root systems are clearly visible in the ladies today Day 13 - The ladies are looking well today. Venezia seems to be showing some light signs of heat stress with slight curling of the leaves. The lights are due to be adjusted tomorrow to account for the seedlings growth over the last week.
