Day 99: Today marks the start of the last week for this journal! I keep watering them with RO water (0ppm) every 3 days. The runoff is gradually diminishing as the plants are utilizing the remaining nutrients present in the growing medium. The experience has been amazing so far, and I've definitely learned a lot. I'll probably be chopping these plants in one week... Damn guys, so excited to taste these beautiful buds! Tried to bring something different this time uploading a video instead of photos. But pictures are coming soon as well to best ilustrate whats going on. Cheers! Day 101: Took some new pictures today. Girls are looking good and smelling amazing. Cant wait to taste them. Day 103: We're getting real close to the finish line. Slapped a mini microscope onto my phone and took some pics of the trichomes. The bottom buds are mostly cloudy, and the top ones have a bit of amber action. Thinking maybe I'll give it another week before I pull the trigger on harvesting.

End of week 9 harvest time for the blueberry. She grew very well and packed on a lot of weight in her last 2 weeks. I will update this in about 2 weeks with dry weight and first smoke, taste, flavor review. This will be my last grow of this strain for a while. Update - Mar 7 - dry bud weigh-in 218.3 grams. She had big buds, nice density, but not as heavy as I had hoped for.

I began the second week with 1/4 soil feed of NITRO that is added to the top layer of soil. I'm using Bigbudjuice throughout with a wet feed, and soil application. Day 9 is when the growth really started to happen as the seedlings seem to have good roots. Day 11 the girls were then given a 1/4 of budjuice watering which has resulted in some awesome growth over 3 days. During this week I've slowly increased the intensity while watching how the react and have shown no issues. Currently sitting at 350 Par and will being to.lower slowly to increase par to 450 PAR as the start into Veg. Also lowering RH slowly as well. I am a new grower, and I'm going slowly and steady while learning not to try to much or be crazy ambitious as a beginner. I also began a pre pest control spray on foliage with neem oil/Dr Bronners dish soap/water mix applying every 10-12 days. Thanks for stopping by and if you have any tips or advice it is all welcomed. Super stoked to keep learning as I go, and read the leaves as they are the first warning sign of what is happening. Happy growing 🤙🤙 FYI not sure what went on with #1 leaves but seems to be growing fine, and all other leaves are growing out right.

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.

HOT wild heat wave roll through 30c. Had some minor yellow discoloration on the small one, maybe full does of silica +30c heatwave lockout?, didn't bother with PH, but she's still rolling through it. 4th round of topping on both, 32, one more before canopy is filled out and she'll go up. Then maybe one more top to even canopy out will see. Some minor cattepilar damage, but I'm raising an army of Chickadees through nest boxes (bonus pics). A pair of chickadees can use 6000 to 9000 cattepilars to raise a brood to adults. Will hopefuy nab pics of the fledglings any day now, then will try and quickly clean out nest box and they're known to raise a second brood if the food is plenty, and it is Compost tea tommorow, 5g bucket, 20ml fish / Kelp, 2 Tbsp molasses, aerated 24hr, then silica / diablo max 1/2 dose before watering.

So far it seems to be fine even if the high humidity worries me even if the temperatures are still high then they have stopped growing and will finally focus on the flowers and slowly we recover these small deficiencies

V8, supuestamente hoy haría transplante a los maceteros definitivos, pero, hace 3 días que las plantas están presentando hojas débiles y dobladas hacia abajo, en un principio pensé en que podría ser exceso de agua, pero creo que es exceso de nutrientes, básicamente exceso de nitrógeno, ya que las hojas están con un verde muy oscuro y algunas están presentando manchas color café. Así que hoy les hice lavado de raíz, con agua EC 0, hasta que el drenaje fue de cercano a 4 EC. Esperaré unos días a ver si se recuperan, si no, simplemente las eliminaré y empezaré de nuevo, ojalá se recuperen. V9, al final si era exceso de nutrientes/nitrógeno, menos mal que se recuperaron con el lavado de raíces, pensé que morirían, ahora veré como siguen para decidir si hago transplante hoy mismo. V10, se realizó trasplante a macetas definitivas y un riego suave. Las plantas están todavía en recuperación, esperaré unos días más para empezar el LST. V12, riego. V13, se realizó una pequeña defoliación y LST.

Rainbow melon, a marvelous genetic I’ve never seen such a rigorous plant. I’ve never to plant before so we’ll see how it goes like that but if there’s a chance, I can have fat cola all the way around I’m going to do it has some trouble with her on my first one so a little scared, but we’ll see how she handles it. 🔥🙏

This will be my 1st auto run. Other than one time I was sent some free f1 autos from rqs and I started some but I ended up tossing them for some reason or another. I am actually super excited to try out fastbuds. I have been wanting to try out fastbuds for over a year now. I'm not the greatest with seedlings so I am doing a test run with a 2x2 tent I'm gonna try and grow the best plant I get out if the 3 seeds hopefully it doesn't out grow my small 2x2 tent . Pound cake thou looks like a killer strain with some fat buds can't wait to see how fast fast buds really are. Here we go.

😅 Another Hot Week 🌶️🌶️🌶️ High temperatures 🌡️🌡️🌡️and lots of sun 🌞🌞🌞 and no rain 🌧️ ➡️ Nice plants, but not that potent. The scent is fruity but not that strong ➡️ Just a little water at the beginning of the day 💧💧💧 📍 Plant #1 (147cm) is the biggest plant but the buds are not that big. Orange pistils 📍 Plant #2 (130cm) is the second biggest plant. Also her buds are not that big. Orange pistils 📍 Plant #3 (117cm) is the smallest plant, but she has the fattest buds. She had beautiful pink pistils in the first weeks of flowering, but they turned orange as well Eight week of Light Deprivation 👉👉👉👉Every morning at 9:00 am I move the plants to the greenhouse. 👉👉👉👉Every evening at 9:00 pm I move the plants (together with some other strains) inside the growroom (which I don't use in the summer)

Sticky is becoming a real beast!👊 She did not get any sun this week and it has been real chilly (max.17C) and have been in her safe house most of the time.. But man, she is strong and resilliant! (already knew that, but she keeps surpising me😳 She is smelling so good, she is really smelling like very sweet bubble gum! Can really tell who her parents are: Bubble Gum x OG Kush x Critical Automatic! She is even cancelling out the stank of the Big cheese twins!👊 (yeah she is further along too, so.. 😎) she is not growing much in height anymore .. shes just getting fat! 😍👌 i removed 2 leaves, they were fighting with each other.. have to keep the peace ;) iTs still chilly but the sun is going to shine a lot more today/this week👏 (they promised 😳) and that is really what she needs right now😎 And dont forget: FOR ALL MY GROWBRETHREN/SISTREN IS A DISCOUNT CODE: ZAMMIGD2023 happy growing for all ✊

This is my 2nd ever grow, went from seed / soil to coco / clones LOL (If I can organize my first grow pictures I will upload that at some point. It was definitely a learning experience and I dealt with mites and a hermie but managed to beat the odds and came out with some amazing bud - all from bag seed.) *** Clones purchased and replanted same night Feb 28, 2021 @cloneguyindustries **** - HEPA FPR 10 filter installed in the only air inlet at the bottom - Using AC Infinity Cloudline T4 - 4" exhaust with digital controller (thermometer / hygrometer) and carbon filter - 1 bluetooth thermometer / hygrometer - 1 8 inch fan above lights running 24/7 - 1 dehumidifier running 24/7 - 2 cameras - one monitoring inside the tent and one the AC Infinity controller outside the tent so I can check them on my phone wherever I am - I am not measuring / monitoring my EC, PPM or VPD levels - 3 gallon felt pots - NO TRANSPLANT GROW 🤷‍♂️
