DAY 56 since flip: These girls could have done with some more space between them. Th C banana is so lost between her neighbouring plants , that she struggled to give her best. She is putting out a more defi ed fuel smell alongside the fruity smell. Buds are not particularly big at all but should hopefully give a couple of Oz . The Monster Zkittelz is a totally different lady. She is like a crazy aunt with limbs flying everywhere and refusing to stop flailing. I have her tied up like Gulliver just to keep her around the light. She smells so sweet and candy like now too with dusty tricks like biscuit crumbs. Another week I think and she will be perfect.

Week 9: Navigating the Path to Harvest! Greetings once again, fellow cultivators! As we journey deeper into the heart of our botanical adventure, Week 9 brings us closer to the long-awaited harvest of our beloved Epsilon F1. In this week's installment, we dive into the intricacies of nutrient management and the final stages of flower development. Our Epsilon F1 stands tall and proud, a testament to the care and dedication lavished upon her throughout her growth journey. With each passing week, her beauty becomes more radiant, her buds more plump and resinous. It's a sight to behold, a testament to the magic of nature and the art of cultivation. Ah, but this week brings a significant shift in our approach to feeding. We've made the bold decision to cut all additional nutrients, relying solely on Fluvic Blast and Enzym+, both trusted companions from the Aptus Holland lineup. Why, you ask? Because at this stage of the game, our focus shifts from nutrient uptake to nutrient utilization. Fluvic Blast, with its rich blend of organic acids and trace minerals, acts as a catalyst for nutrient absorption, ensuring that our Epsilon F1 can make the most of the resources available to her. Enzym+, on the other hand, plays a crucial role in breaking down organic matter, releasing valuable nutrients that might otherwise remain locked away in the soil. Together, these two powerhouses work in harmony to optimize nutrient availability and promote healthy, vigorous growth in the final weeks before harvest. As we approach the culmination of our journey, let us not forget the lessons learned along the way. From the delicate balance of light and nutrients to the art of patience and perseverance, each day in the grow room has been a lesson in humility and gratitude. We owe a debt of gratitude to Royal Queen Seeds for providing us with the genetic masterpiece that is the Epsilon F1, and to Aptus Holland for crafting nutrients that have nourished our plant from seedling to harvest. And so, as we bid adieu to Week 9 and prepare for the final stretch, let us take a moment to marvel at the beauty of our Epsilon F1 and the miracle of nature's creation. May her harvest be abundant, her buds potent, and her legacy enduring. Until next time, dear friends, happy growing! #EpsilonF1HarvestJourney #Week9FinalStretch #BotanicalBeauty #RoyalQueenSeedsGenetics #AptusHollandNourishment Genetics -Epsilon F1 @rqs_esp @royalqueenseedssp @rqsglobal Food - @aptusholland @aptus_world @aptus_es @aptus_portugal @aptusbrasil @aptusplanttechaus @aptus_thailand @aptusplanttechnz @aptususa_official LED @lumatekeu Controls - @trolmaster.eu @trolmaster.agro @trolmaster.support As always thank you all for stopping by, for the love and for it all , this journey of mine wold just not be the same without you guys, the love and support is very much appreciated and i fell honored and blessed with you all in my life With true love comes happiness , Always believe in your self and always do things expecting nothing and with an open heart , be a giver the universe will give back to you in ways you could not even imagine so #aptus #aptusplanttech #aptusgang #aptusfamily #aptustrueplantscience #inbalancewithnature #trueplantscience #rqs #ApoloMission #MoonHarvestAdventure #playwithlego #lego #legotime #legovideo #tothemoonandback More info and complete updates from all my adventures can be found Link in the profile description Friendly reminder all you see here is pure research and for educational purposes only Growers Love To you All

She is now coming into preflower and loving the new T5's. She is growing nice and bushy with future tops shooting for the stars. The stretch is definitely near. She will continue to be tied down and has been pruned and defoliated as needed to give her that sexy shape i want her to have in flower. Her terpines are beginning to be noticeable and is of lemons, earthy notes, and loud gas. She is now also getting kelp extract added to the nutes. She is growing very nicely and i could not be happier at the moment. So far OSSC has my attention as their phenotypes have been very nice.

New week. 55-65 DLi. Been smoking some Pakistani Landrace this week, must say, its exceptional. The plant shifts its energy entirely from vegetative growth to flower production. Small blemishes are creeping in, but expected, holding up remarkably well given the circumstances. A high CEC acts as a nutrient "storehouse", preventing essential cations from being washed away by water (leaching) and making them available for gradual plant uptake. Soils with high CEC can store larger quantities of nutrients, allowing for less frequent, potentially larger, fertilizer applications compared to low-CEC (sandy) soils which require smaller, more frequent doses. By providing a steady and dependable supply of nutrients, high-CEC soils support healthier plant growth and potentially higher crop yields. High CEC is typically associated with soils rich in clay and organic matter, which also generally have a greater water-holding capacity, benefiting crops during dry periods. While high-buffer soils require larger amounts of amendments (like lime) to change their pH initially, they need to be limed or amended less frequently, simplifying long-term management. High CEC and buffering capacity work together to create a stable, nutrient-rich, and resilient soil environment that is highly conducive to healthy plant growth.

No joke, the small plant last week blew up. It grew almost 10 inches in a single week! I had to put the Vulcan pinch on this skinny beast! I know it’s taboo to let train a plant in flower but she was forcing my light up.

Another good week. Watered them twice. I'm not planning on feeding them again. A little defoliation. I definitely think they are in the last 2 weeks before harvest. Still seeing some nutrient burn developing on the leaves. I don't think I watered enough through the whole grow! I'd love to hear opinions on this! Took some videos of the buds with an iPhone 12 at 6X magnification. Decent quality! Otherwise, still looking to successfully harvest these plants! Thinking about the next grow. Probably going to be Auto Strawberry Cheesecake and Auto Anesthesia. Peace!

The girls are looking better and better each day. They have finished whatever stretch they had begun, and are now stacking some very decent buds 😊 They are showing some phosphorus deficiencies, but at the same time are showing that they are getting some nutrient burn 🤔🧐 I’m used to making one solution to feed, and that seems very difficult to balance with some of these Auto’s, as I have had to adjust for these girls and not my others, anywho, the joys of Autoflower’s ❤️ Only a few weeks left, hopefully we’ll get through it as they are looking promising at this point. Happy Gardening 👊🇨🇦❤️🌱

🌿🔍 Week 7: Trichome Wonderland and Final Push! 🌿🔍 Hey there! Here's your weekly update with all the exciting developments in my grow: 🌸 The Smell is Popping: Week 7 brings a delightful aroma to my grow space. The scents are becoming more pronounced and captivating. 🌬️👃 🌈 Colors Galore: The plants are showing off their vibrant colors as the flowers mature. You'll notice burpling on the leaves and the emergence of orange and red hairs on The Queen plant. LOVE IT ! 🌺🎨 💧 pH and TDS Levels: Throughout the entire flower stage, my pH has remained steady at 6.33. That's great! As for the TDS levels, they currently stand at 750ppm and 1150ppm, providing the necessary nutrients for your plants. ⚖️🌱 ⏳ Flowering Progress: The Queen is proving to be a quick finisher, with only 46 days of flowering under her belt. She's looking almost ready, and it's time to grab my handy DIY microscope to examine the trichomes closely. Keep an eye for the desired level of ripeness! 🔍🌿⌛ 🍪 Oreo Big Stuff: Although not as far along as The Queen, the Oreo Big Stuff will need an additional week of flowering before she reaches her peak. 🍪⚡ 🌿 Zweet Og: The Zweet Og requires a bit more patience. It looks like it will need at least two more weeks before it's ready for harvest. Keep monitoring her progress and let her mature fully. 🕒👀🌿 🧐 Drying Dilemma: Unfortunately, I currently am facing a problem with drying The Queen. She's positioned on the back left side of the grow tent with a scrog, making it challenging to remove her without disturbing the others. It's a tricky situation indeed! 😬🌿🏋️‍♂️ 🌱 Future Plans: Despite this dilemma, overall, I'm extremely happy with how things are going. No herms or other issues have arisen, which is fantastic news. I'm even planning to do another run with The Queen, as I already have six clones ready to be transitioned into flowering immediately after this run. Exciting times ahead, especially since it'll be my first time flowering clones! 🌼🌿🌿 That's all for this week's update. Happy growing, lads, and remember to stay high on positivity! If you need any assistance or have any questions, feel free to ask. 🌿💪🌿✨

HI Guys, she is not doing to well, she seems to have suffered from root rod, due to a clocked air pump filter (totally my mistake, didn't even now that this needed cleaning). Anyhow, very annoying, lots of cleaning and sterilising I hope she will bounce back and will give her another week to build new roots, if she however won't do that, I will terminate this one and pop another one, as I was actually looking forward to smoking her. It looks like she is already setting up a new set of roots, so 🤞. Up top she is now looking a bit droopy showing a few nutrient deficiencies, but still growing, however a lot slower than in the beginning. Thanks for stopping by and hopefully until next week.

The BMR sisters are in overdrive, it's looking like stretch has stopped now that we're 14 days into stretch, and the canopy is wonderfully uniform, nothing else to say this week except everything is looking great!

So this week the plants streched like crazy, the NL started to flower too and has actually become taller then the other 2 plants, even though its technically 2 weeks behind. the strange thing is its way more spacious then the packed Diesel.... it'll be fun seeing how they match up in the end! My new fan and dehumidifier solved the RH issue I had and I crushed it down to under 50% now! Things are looking like they're on the right track.....fingers crossed! I wonder if there is anything else I can add , nutrient wise... i know I shouldn't overdo it but I'll play around a bit and see. Got rid of most bigger and medium fan leaves that i felt were blocking the bud-sites from getting light...again, not sure about if I'm going about this the right way, seems counter-intuitive to get rid of so much green but hey ...it helps greatly with lowering humidity and keeps the bottom of the girls nice and ventilated. I actually took off a bit more because it keeps growing shut. Update: got some big bud and overdrive from my local grow shop... I'll give it a try...

Que hay de nuevo familia, mis green ak xL están dando sus frutos, no veas que bonitas que se están poniendo, floración algo lenta y variedad difícil de cultivar pero que si sabes realmente merece la pena.

This week, we feed mycorrhizal fungi to the plants and it gets the excellent results. The plants grow extraodinarily.
