This will be the 7th week in flower . Fitting to go into 8th week in flower. I learned that I was heavy feeding and the mite I figured a way to get rid of em completely. I was using Plant Therapy which is oil and has peppermint smell to it. I just use that for spray bottle and back using hydro peroxide to kill the insects far as mite or clean up anything that may harm the roots inside the soils. I want to see these girl strive to the end. Definitely running London Pound Cake again after the Birthday Runtz . MSLN will try their LPC next up in 2024.

Dutch Passions Shaman Die zwei Schamaninnen entwickeln sich sehr schön. Sie sind auf 75 Zentimeter gewachsen. Ich habe mich gegen das Umtopfen entschieden. Zum Einen, weil ich die beiden mobil halten will und zum Anderen um sie nicht zu stressen. Ich werde die beiden gut beobachten und in den nächsten Tagen mit Kompost, frischem Mulch und Beinwell Jauche nach düngen.

Day 31 - What a healthy green plant like always , the petioles of the leaves are purplish but it is pretty commun for that strain so we are far from a magnesium deficiency here. The smell is the typical deep citrus one from that strain. The trichomes production is already huge and we are barely half the way now so imagine what it will be in 4 weeks 😍

This OGgelato is a champ! Not the heaviest producer, but its been a real pleasure and was easy to grow. No matter what nutrients I throw at her, or aggressive pruning, she bounces right back. This week I found bud rot on one of my other plants in the greenhouse but this plant has so far been resistant and is healthy. I thinned the canopy and defoliated out quite a bit to create more air flow. I now have fans on 24/7 and sprayed with a mycorrizhal fungicide that suppresses botrytis. Also this week I have stopped pulling the tarp on and off each night (for total darkness) because it seemed to trap in too much humidity at night. The humidity outside has been 80-90% for over a week! And the rain was so heavy all last week. This week is slightly warmer with less rain so hoping we can make it. The trichomes are starting to get milky. I imagine I have 1-2 weeks left but am not sure. This has been a pleasurable experience for sure, but this is stressful right now! The smell is so strong you can smell it on my block. You can see *everything* from the alleyway adjacent to the greenhouse. I'm worried about mold and thiefs and can not wait for this to be dried and in jars!

High UV-B radiation can necessitate increased magnesium because it plays a crucial role in mitigating the stress and damage caused by UV-B exposure. High UV-B can lead to the production of harmful reactive oxygen species, and magnesium helps the plant's antioxidant systems and chlorophyll function to cope with this stress, making adequate magnesium supply essential for plant health under such conditions. Why UV? To do with the way anthocyanin is different from other pigmentations in that its colouration is not attached to the cell itself, it's a pH thing, if you force the color through high dose, as soon as she stops being in that environment, it will begin to revert back to chlorophyll, nitrogen deficiency causes anthocyanin to be produced in the first place, and nitrogen is needed to create new chlorophyll. When plants have a nitrogen deficiency, they produce anthocyanins to protect the leaves from stress while they try to salvage remaining nutrients, like nitrogen, before leaf drop. 24:1 C:N carbon&nitrogen ratio in medium will trigger autophagy, which will begin the dumping of nitrogen into the soil to feed micros as they FEED on nitrogen to convert carbon sugars into chemical energy via cellular root respiration (calcium/phosphorous VITAL for sugar processing). Couple the UV with a nitrogen dump for all the colors of the rainbow, and remove the possibility of allowing the conversion back to chlorophyll. 10/14 mimics late autumn, winter is coming, maximizing genetic expressions of desired purple genes if they do exist, I have seen no indications that I'd expect from previous grows. Oxygen is the oxidizer; if a soil cannot breathe, nothing good will EVER happen. Raised UV to lower the dosage. The leaves begin producing a protein hormone called florigen (produced via the Flowering Locus T gene). DELLA proteins. The plant measures the duration of the night by monitoring the amount of Pfr that has reverted to Pr. I imagine it like an egg timer with sand. You can speed up the flow of sand one way or another, determined by what type of red light and the ratio overall. The standard flowering cycle for many indoor plants is 12 hours of light and 12 hours of darkness. By applying a short pulse of far-red light at the very beginning of the dark cycle, a grower can trick the plant's internal clock. Forcing the conversion: A pulse of far-red light (730 nm) rapidly converts the active (P_{fr}) back into the inactive (P_{r}) form, simulating several hours of dark reversion. This amplified "sleep" signal causes the plant to believe the night started hours earlier than it actually did. For a short-day plant, this rapid reset means it can perceive a 14-hour night even though it only received 10 hours of darkness. This allows growers to use a 14/10 light cycle (14 hours of light, 10 hours of dark) without disrupting the flowering of short-day plants, as the far-red pulse makes the night effectively "long enough". This provides plants with more light for photosynthesis and can speed up the flowering process. What about all night? Or a pulse (15-30min)? High Pfr (Far-Red) overnight mimics a short night:If you maintain a high Pfr:Pr ratio overnight, the plant never receives the signal that a sufficient dark period has occurred. This mimics the conditions of a short night, during which Pfr levels remain high. Flowering is inhibited: As a result, the plant will not flower. This is the same effect that is observed when a flash of red light interrupts a long night, which instantly converts any Pr back to Pfr and resets the dark-reversion clock. But it's not that simple, I do not necessarily want a 14/10 for the entirety of the flower. Suppose you give a 12/12 with the pr/pfr conversion to make her more of a 10/14. It may not be the best option for the entirety of flower. A photoperiod cannabis plant will develop differently under a 14/10 light cycle compared to a 10/14 cycle during the flowering phase. The differing lengths of light and darkness trigger different hormonal responses, influencing the plant's growth, final yield, potency, and maturation time. A faster maturation time in flowering cannabis offers quicker harvests and lower potential risk, but can result in diminished potency, lower yields, and a less complex flavor and aroma profile comparatively. The trade-offs depend on the grower's priorities and the specific cannabis genetics. 14/10 physical light cycle with pr/pfr conversion for optimal yield to make the plant think it's on a 12/12. After the first 4/5 weeks of flower, when trichomes ramp up, I will change it to 12/12, keeping the pr/pfr conversion. I should switch her to a more 10/14. Although this is stressful, make sure she is not suffering from undue stress from other areas. If enough stress accumulates, there is a chance the increased levels of jasmonic acid will make her pop a few seeds. Be aware, play it by how she is at the time. If you want to make the 10/14 make sure one also applies a second pulse of far-red light (15-30min) two hours into the dark period. This mimics an even longer night, causing the plant to perceive a very short day of 10 hours and a long night of 14 hours. A pulse of only far-red light during a short-day plant's dark period will not disrupt its sleep. Unlike a pulse of red light, which would actively interrupt the dark period and inhibit flowering, far-red light promotes the biochemical state that signals a long, uninterrupted night. This simulates the shortening days of late autumn/winter and can stress the plant, triggering a defensive response. Some growers report that this low, controlled stress can increase resin and trichome production as the plant works to protect its flowers. This mimics a natural outdoor harvest cycle where days get progressively shorter and nights longer. Reduce relative humidity during the late flowering stage to around 30%. This is another controlled stressor that can boost trichome production while reducing the risk of mold. Unlock the full genetic potential and allow for maximal expression of desired genes during critical times. Autoflowers contain genetics from the Cannabis ruderalis subspecies, which evolved to flower automatically based on a predetermined internal clock, or age that flowers based on age rather than light triggers, red and far-red light do not play a role in initiating the flowering stage. However, they significantly affect other aspects of the plant's growth and morphology. The premise that autoflowers do not use phytochrome red (Pr) to phytochrome far-red (Pfr) conversion for any function is incorrect. Like other plants, autoflowers utilize the phytochrome system to sense their light environment and manage processes like germination, shade avoidance, and vegetative growth, even if the phytochrome system isn't what signals them to flower. Thank you 🙏 Almost time. Sound the horn! Maintaining 12-1600ppm by the morning's compensation point alone. She is consistently experiencing noticeable growth every day. Sulfur is in prior to flower, medium loaded with abundance, CEC charged, as the plant grows, so does its respiratory footprint. The exhaust fan starts to flare up at night far more often. The pH is unlocking hydrogen, allowing the plant to cycle CEC for its needs, which is optimal for soil microorganisms. It is charged with controlled doses of sucrose at optimal uptake temperatures. Full negative pressure diffusion setup linked to RH for nights, with negative pressure linked to daytime heat extraction. Just need to throw in the second net, switch spectral ratio and enjoy the show. The struggle of the butterfly to escape through its caterpillar sac strengthens its wings; without this struggle, it would not be able to fly.

Thursday 16th march day 59 Harvested a couple days earlier then planned as my humidity was getting a bit high and worried about risking mold I decided to chop, have to get a good dehumidifier soon, everything looking lovely, nice and dense with very strong fruity potent smell definitely the best looking plants I have grown to date not the biggest buds but they look quality, chopped plants whole gonna do my best to keep the temp and rh% in the dry room as close 60/60 as I can to get a nice slow dry, 🍁😎 I only took the wet weight from 1 plant back left plant was 270g with large fan leaves removed

Here we are with another exciting new product from Zamnesia, Gush Mintz. Remember that we are growing one plant worked with the techniques indicated and another left to grow without pruning to preserve its speed; in the previous/next diary you will find the other plant of the same strain. In this diary we find a plant worked with slightly different techniques, this time for a change and to be honest because I was doing a main lining and having broken a brunch I turned it into a plant with LST applied aggressively and the plant responded well, I also made a small break but it worked as an HST, to continue stressing I put some paper tape. Comparison is the salt of the experience, so the plant in the other diary will be treated very differently, go and see it to make a comparison. We started the Plagron fertilization program, we are in 100% organic configuration, the soil is made up of recycled Promix + 1/3 fresh soil + 10% Perlite + RQS Mycorrhizae Mix (4 g in the mix, 1 g under the small fiber pot). In the middle of the week the pre-flowering started so I decided to start the program for this phase: 1 ml/l of Power Roots - 1 ml/l of Pure Zym - 1 ml/l of Sugar Royal - 1 ml/l of Power Buds - 4 ml/l of Alga Bloom Remember the Green Sensation from the 3rd/4th week of flowering depending on the flowering speed or how you see the calyxes composing, when the calyx is in the swelling phase it is used. We sprayed 5 ml/l of Vita Race foliar fertilizer once a week. ----------------------------------------------- https://plagron.com/en We still have the excellent RQS mycorrhizas running through the soil. https://www.zamnesia.io/en/5778-mix-micorrhiza-easy-roots.html Try this strain, it is one of the best in recent years, with a very high THC level ---- https://www.zamnesia.io/en/11234-zamnesia-seeds-gush-mintz-automatic.html Zamnesia Short Description // Gush Mintz Auto is a relaxing hybrid strain derived from the original Gush Mintz and a high-performance ruderalis specimen. This cross has produced a plant with a genetic makeup of 70% indica and 30% sativa. Her parents have given her a host of interesting characteristics, including mint and candy flavors and a high THC content of 20%. Smoking these buds provides creative vibes, a feeling of euphoria, and a pleasant sensation from head to toe. In addition to her enticing flavors and powerful effects, Gush Mintz Auto produces large yields of compact buds in just 9-10 weeks from germination. This strain is suited to LST (Low Stress Training) and performs best when grown in the ScrOG technique (a technique that optimizes light exposure to maximize yields). Intense aromas and deeply relaxing effects As she grows, Gush Mintz Auto’s aroma intensifies, releasing sweet and minty notes. This refreshing flavor profile is best enjoyed when smoked, offering an enticing combination of minty freshness and sweetness. The effects are deeply relaxing, enveloping the body in a pleasant sense of well-being without being overly sedative. Gush Mintz Auto is perfect for those seeking creative inspiration, making writing, painting or music sessions more fluid and inspiring. The whole world of growing and much more is at Zamnesia: just take a look at the site and you will find "all the best that nature has to offer" in various shapes and colors. --------------- www.zamnesia.com

Hi, everyone 👋 a few days ago I was given a TS1000 lamp by Mars Hydro for grow purposes....this is the perfect opportunity to make and test a Bubble Bucket. I never had one and always wanted to try one out 😎 i had half the stuff needed to build a Bubbler and at this point i"m only lacking a exhaust fan with filter. As the TS1000 from Mars Hydro brings a powerful 150 Watt on board and 2,3umol/J 💪💪💪 I plan to start with two plants, but because my excellent Mars Hydro grow tent is a 60 x 60 cm (2'x2') I am not able to fit in two Bubblers... so i decided to grow the Amnesia CBD Auto by Dinafem in a bubbler and Blue Cheese Auto(when its sprouts :) in traditional method in soil (for comparison reasons). If the DWC will work really well and there only place for one plant i will move the Blue Cheese Auto to a different tent... if not they will grow together. As the Dinafem seed bank is no longer there the seeds i got are a couple years old and i used 4 seeds to sprout one seedling of Amnesia CBD Auto. Let's start of this babies and see them flourish under the my new awesome Mars Hydro TS1000 lamp. All the best to my fellow grower, keep it growing friends 💪😍

Did a full change on the Reservoir, used 50/50 Universol Yellow and Yara Calcinit, EC to 1.8. Adjusted the light, removed the hangers so I can lift it a few centimeter, did that because it will give better lightspread, also dimmed it to 75% to 40 DLI, had 50 before maybe it was a little to much. My Phosphorus/Calcium deficiency got even worse on NL#2 so I increased the PH to 6.2 to update some more Calcium but overall it just got worse. NL#1 is showing some symptoms aswell, but not as bad as NL#2.

🍁Dicas e sugestões? As meninas agradecem! 📸Update de fotos, vídeos e informações diariamente. DAY 22 Estudado muito para ver se aprendo algo sobre NUTRIÇÃO DAS PLANTAS e consigo fazer um bom schedule. Daqui 3 dias começo alimentá-las com nutrientes minerais. Infelizmente preciso esperar os medidores de pH e TDS/EC chegarem. O pior é que acho que elas estão pedindo comida. Ainda bem que são só 3 dias até os medidores chegarem. DAY 23 Amanhã os medidores de EC e pH chegam! Minhas meninas finalmente vão ser alimentadas, estão famintas com certeza. Cresceram muito e comeram o “quase nada” que tinha no substrato. A deficiência de Nitrogenio (N) já pode ser vista nas folhas enroladas 90°. DAY 24 😃 Os medidores de pH e EC finalmente chegaram!! Já podemos começar a alimentação das meninas. Todos muito felizes. DAY 25 Todas meninas devidamente alimentadas. Muita expectativa para saber se elas gostaram dos nutrientes. Elas estão crescendo bem, mesmo com fome (até 1cm/dia). DAY 26 😍Minhas meninas estão crescendo maravilhosamente! Hoje reguei só com água, mas amanhã vou dar mais comida de novo. Escolhi dar alimentação 2 vezes na semana. COP está cada dia mais bonita. C4 foi removida do growbox e agora está na varanda aproveitando a luz natural. Agora são 4 plantas, as 2 mais fortes irão para a floração na barraca. DAY 27 As meninas receberam a segunda alimentação da semana e ficaram muito felizes. Aumentei a rega para 500ml/planta. DAY 28 ✂️ Para aprender e entender um pouco melhor como funciona e como elas se comportam fiz hoje poda de cobertura e defoliation nas plantas C1 e C3. Na C1 eu deixei 4 fan leafs, na C3 eu deixei 2 fan leafs. Espero que elas gostem do novo penteado. 🎃Obrigado por verificar meu cultivo.
