🌸 Week 25 Update (Early Flower – Pistils Arriving!) This week marks the official start of the show — pistils are popping and both plants are settling beautifully into early flower 🔥🌸.Red Hot Violet is stretching with confidence now. Node spacing is ideal, and those early white pistils are lighting up each site like tiny fireworks 💜✨. Her structure is going to pay off big as she starts stacking.Amaretto Sour is smelling sweeter each day — that lemon-blueberry aroma is getting louder 🍋

Day 98 The plants are deep into flowering now and really starting to fill out nicely. The buds have become dense and covered in a thick layer of trichomes, giving off a strong, sweet aroma that’s getting more intense each day. The pistils are starting to turn from white to a light amber tone, a good sign that the plant is moving toward maturity. Overall health looks great — leaves are a rich green, with only a few showing minor fade on the lower canopy, which is normal at this stage. I’ve been keeping a close eye on humidity and temperature to avoid any mold issues as the buds continue to fatten up. Feeding schedule remains steady with a focus on bloom nutrients and a bit of molasses to enhance flavor and resin production. Watering every 2–3 days, making sure not to overdo it.

On next feed going to up the cal mag a small amount but pretty much letting them do their thing. On day 23 I will defoliate. Second net is going to be used just as support

420Fastbuds FBT2313/Week2 Weekly update for these 2. I started seeing some rust spots so I decided to add a little General Hydroponics Calimagic at 0.25tsp/gal to my feed. So far seems to stop. I also decided to start a very light dose of nutes General Hydroponics 3 part flora series at the same 0.25tsp/gal to every other feed to see how they'll respond. All in all Happy Growing.

I've finally managed to stabilize the PH value at around 6. The lamp has been running at 600W for 10 days. It gets really warm in the tent but the buds get nice and thick :) Or do you prefer 400W then I can keep the temperature better at around 24 degrees

Not much to report this week, the trichomes are still milky. My feeling is that it will take another 2-3 weeks until they are ready to harvest. Until then, I will continue with the fertilizer scheme. The smell of both strains is very pleasantly fruity (citrus) and I continue to monitor the VPD value and temperatures. This time there are no pictures and only videos they show better the development, in the time lapse you can still see a growth in the flowers, slow but there is still growth.

Started adding the nutes at 1ml/l. Just using Advanced Nutrients Sensi Coco A+B for veg, Will add in some molasses after any HST or defoliation (stress). Looking good so far. Germinated 2 of these plants but only one will flower this time round. The other will become a mother for a full 4x4 tent GDP grow after this one finishes.

Using a Rhaspberry Pi 4 to automate the watering and a TP-link 105 smart plug to automate the Viparspectra P2000 LED grow light. You can see how I automated it here: https://hackaday.io/project/188129-rhaspberry-pi4-basic-watering-system-for-balcony Basically, this is an "Automated Watering how-to Guide for Dummies" - as simple as technically possible. You still require some basic command line expertise, but the steps have been proven and I provide links to the gear I used AND the Node Red code, making this EASIER than anything else I've seen online. Harvesting soon.

Last 2 weeks before I put her in a 3 day dark period! I’m no longer giving any nutrients and I’m letting the plant deplete all the nutrients in the soil, I’m also only using water for now own. I have her in a 11.5 hour light schedule. There’s slight nutrient burning too on some parts but it’s nothing drastic.

This week I tried out amino boost to see how it would affect the size and density of the buds. I am quite impressed by the turnaround time of efficiency...Just 2 days after the feed, the buds looking alot more frosty 😀..Getting thick too..

This was the ladies last week! I’ve been watching the tricomes, #1 is mostly cloudy with a touch of amber, # 2 could go just a bit longer as there are mostly cloudy with a few amber and some clear… but I have a schedule to keep to make tent space available. Fed the ladies straight ph’d water for 4 feeds, being sooooo hot they have been needing water every other day, which turned out perfect! Super happy with the smells so far, typical Kush with a very pleasing earthy aroma 🤤 Into my 2x4 AC infinity controlled tent for hopefully a 10 day slow dry @ 60% RH. It’s been so dang hot, temps in my basement with AC are still hovering around 72 degrees!

Swapped out a light that’s slightly too big for my tent but squeezed it in with minor cuts to the tent. Probably should’ve done it sooner. Can only run the light at 50% or below.

#1 Blütewoche 7/8 #2 Blütewoche 9/10 Blütewoche 2- 8: Die volle Blüte Die Blüte ist in vollem Gange! Die Pflanzen haben sich kräftig und leider diesmal zu unkontrolliert gestreckt. Wir sind der Sativa Genetik aufgrund mangelnder Zeit und schlechtem Lichtmanagment nicht so ganz Herr geworden. Wir haben versucht den DLI sukzessive durch höhenregultion auf 40-45 anzuheben jedoch wohl erst zu spät. Aufgrund der zu ungleichmäßigen ausleuchtung im für diebLampe zu großen "Zelt" wurde eine zweite GCX9 installiert. Der Düngeplan bleibt unverändert. * Zustand der Pflanze: Enorm kräftiger Blütestretch, Stiele kaum zu kontrollieren * Wichtige Ereignisse: Anhebung des DLI. * Düngung & Messwerte: * Gießwasser: pH ca. 6,3. Leitwert 1,4 bis 2 S. * Drain: Wir stellen sicher, dass der pH-Wert nicht unter 5,5 und nicht über 6,8 liegt und der Leitwert die +/- 500 S Abweichung einhält. * Anpassungen: Einsatz von Haltestangen, Einbau einer zweiten GCX9 zur besseren Ausleuchtung und Inbetriebnahme eines GC Signal zur Sonnen Auf- und Untergangssimulaion Blütewoche 9 bzw 10 Letzte Woche/n vor der Ernte: Das große Finale Das große Finale naht! Der Tangie Ghost Train nähert sich mit einer Blütezeit von 9-10 Wochen dem Erntefenster. Ab heute wird die Pflanze täglich nur noch mit Osmosewasser gespült, bis das Drainwasser klar durchläuft. Dies soll alle überschüssigen Nährstoffe enfernen und und für ein sauberes und geschmackvolles Endprodukt sorgen die Meinungen gehen dabei auch bei uns auseinander und das Endprodukt und auch der Ertrag sind nicht spürbar schlechter wenn man spült jedoch spart man Geld bzw. Rohstoffe also spricht aus unserer Sicht nichts dagegen. Die Trichome werden genau beobachtet, um den perfekten Erntezeitpunkt zu bestimmen. * Zustand der Pflanze: Ernte rückt näher. Die Trichome sind langsam zum großen Teil milchig. * Wichtige Ereignisse: Beginn der Spülung. * Düngung & Messwerte: Es wird nur noch mit reinem Osmosewasser gespült. * Anpassungen: Zur gleichmäßigeren Ausleuchtung wurde eine zweite Lampe installiert jedoch sind dabei an dieser Pflanze einge Köpfe gerollt. Collateralschäden sind bei umbaumaßnahmen leider nicht selten. 🙄

The start was easy as it gets just add water the first 20 days and LST every day. When i saw some of the lower leaves start to change color that's when i started to add nuits. after that it was just following the instructions foxfarm already had laid out for me. I cut back by half in the start of my feeds but by the end of my grow I was at full strength. Testing your run off is key. Cropking send me great seeds and genetics is a great foundation and starting point. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I was very happy I got almost 5 ounces off one plant.

Just starting week 8, 1 white widow is growing excellent, the 2 blueberry are in back and they are full of flowers. The 1 white widow in front right is slow since the get go. Not much lst on her but I think she stunted and slowly flowering. Blueberry plants showing slight burn on leaves but still just using ph water on them for one more and back to nutes then. Just went down to do nutes and I figured out it was a cal mag deficiency not Nute burn, hopefully they can make it through this hiccup.

I did not now the weight of how much dry or wet flower I have because I decided to freeze right away all of the flower and after 24 hours in the fridge I created bubble hash unfortunately I only took pictures of the first batch total amount 58.6 grams of bubble hash of excellent quality despite treating this plant really badly it give me a very abundant flower With incredible density
