Grow report week 4: The training and the topping Hello dear growers and groweresses, it’s time for an update on my grow. My plants have completed the fourth week and have grown further. But they have also experienced some measures that I will tell you about. The training This week I continued the low-stress training (LST) and tied the plants further. The LST is a method to gently bend and tie the plants to improve the light distribution and air circulation. The goal is to keep the plants low and wide and promote more side shoots and flower heads. The topping In addition to the LST, I also applied the topping to make the plants even bushier. The topping is a method to cut off the top of the plant to interrupt the apical dominance and produce more main shoots. The goal is to branch the plant and produce more flowers. I performed the topping as follows: I watered the plants well to reduce the stress. I cut off the top of the plant above the third or fourth node to create two new shoots. I observed the plants and looked for signs of stress or shock. The topping also worked well and the plants recovered quickly. They formed two new main shoots that will later become large colas. They also put more energy into the side branches, which will also carry more flowers. The fertilization I also fertilized for the first time this week, although I actually wanted to start late with it. I used the Fish-Mix from BioBizz to give the plants more nitrogen. Fish-Mix is an organic liquid fertilizer that consists of fish parts from the North Sea and organic sugar beet extract. It stimulates the biological activity of the soil and the plant growth. The Fish-Mix did well for the plants and they showed more growth. They formed more leaves and shoots and became greener and healthier. They also absorbed more nitrogen and produced more proteins. The outlook I am very satisfied with the result of the fourth week. My plants have been well trained and topped and have shown great growth. I am very curious about the next week, where I have to activate my setup completely to give the plants their final place and pots. It will be exciting for me to see if my system works as I wished. I will continue to observe the plants and respond to their needs. I will adjust the light intensity, the fertilization and the training to achieve the best results. Thanks for stopping by and see you next week! 😊

move to larger 6L pot using neem oil (1%) to foliar spray on the lady every 3 days. it wont the bugs reproduce there. very effective,organic,safe and un-harming the plant since it leaves oily protection layer - only during veg and bloom 1st week https://www.ebay.com/itm/Khadi-Pure-Natural-Neem-Oil-For-Skin-And-Hair-100-Ml/143613469479?hash=item217007a327:g:DGoAAOSw6GteyhfJ additionaly,there is an organic bio pestisize store near and i got a few lady bugs for cheap.they constantly eat all pests intense LST here to control height and nodes

Que hay familia, volvemos con malas noticias, un ejemplar salió hermafrodita y toco sacarla de su hueco os dejo fotografías de algunas ramas. Las 2 que quedan no pintan mal , se me fueron mucho de altura pero bueno XL. Ph controlado en 6,5 temperaturas máximas 28 y mínimas 19 , sin problemas aparentes. Variedad algo difícil para principiantes.

➡️ Risultato molto scadente per quanto riguarda la resa. Ma c era da aspettarselo questa runtz ha attraversato la transizione della grow room in una grow con condizioni ottimali. In più è cresciuta in un vaso da 3L ed è stata la mia prima esperienza. ➡️Per quanto riguarda il prodotto finale nulla da dire, molto aromatico di frutti tropicali con note dolci e terrose. ➡️Riprenderò questi Semi per vedere cosa possono rendere in vasi da 7L e tutte le cure possibili😊

3/25/2023 Week 6- Day 1 of Veg (Day 52 overall) Added my first between changes SILICA Top offs. Was worried that when you add it to pre mixed Nutes that it can make the whole thing turn into a gummy looking substance. I was ready to drain the system and start it over for the week if needed, but no issues adding it to the tank. the Silica going into the Res didn't gummy the system up, it did drop my PH by quit a bit causing me to have to bring it back in balance. 36 Gallons in the Tank Silica Add .5mil/Gal = 18Mil I topped some that needed to be topped, I defoliated some that needs to be defoliated. Since I have moved into Week 6 I have increased the light intensity up to just over 500 maxing it out for Veg Cycle. Next increase will be Week 1 of Flower. 3/26/2023 Week 6- Day 2 of Veg (Day 53 overall) All conditions looked great. Other than me not putting one of the humidifiers back right which means it didn't work last night so Humidity was lower than I like. But got the Humidifier back on it's stand correctly and it is now pumping away. With that I decided to give the plants a day off from any stresses, no topping, no FIMing, no Defoliation for today. Just some good old soaking up the light rays and the ability to get all the Nutes they would like.. 3/27/2023 Week 6- Day 3 of Veg (Day 54 overall) Looking kind of Bushy today, so I defoliated some, and topped some. 3/28/2023 Week 6- Day 4 of Veg (Day 55 overall) PH was a little lower than I like 5.74 so I added a few Mil of PH UP and brought it back up to 5.94. Not much else at this stage, just I topped a little and I defoliated a little. 3/29/2023 Week 6- Day 5 of Veg (Day 56 overall) Topped a little, Defoliated a little Watched them grow!! 3/30/2023 Week 6- Day 6 of Veg (Day 57 Overall) Main action today was breaking down my old tent and setting up a new tent and getting my second RDWC system setup and ready for clones. I Topped a little, I Defoliated some and started taking a good look at what I would like to take for clones in the coming days. I have a few bottom branches that look every promising for my clone material on each. 3/31/2023 Week 6- Day 7 of Veg (Day 58 overall) #3 is at 16" Tall #2 is at 13" Tall

Week 10 D70 coming along nicely, still has a ways to go. As she only started stigma 20 days ago, well in or around that. For 5 nodes in total she is doing really well you can see all the energy is focused on making nice dense close together buds that should all form into nice big long colas, well to me, that's the way it looks like it's growing. Only flowering 20days looks a lot longer than that right? What do you think? 19/3/22 As you can see I have the RH as best as I can get in my grow room, I've installed the smart fan and inserted the sensor giving me 57%RH/75F in the tent, with the light off, it's rather hot today, much hotter than normal, it's normally 21c in my room it's 24.5 today. RH is at 50% in room, hopefully by installing my old intake fan in the lowest part of my tent and suck out 80% While 100% gets blown in on top will bring the tents RH to the same as the room, that's the hope anyways. But 57%RH is still okay, not optimal but not too bad neither. Thanks for reading, drop a like or comment so I can do like wise on your diaries. 21/3/22 So, I tried out my new method. Of having my smart intake fan suck in 50RH and a bottom intake fan at the end sucking out older air at a lesser speed had it running for 8hrs, no change in humidity whatsoever just dropped the temp by 1.5c. I think the fact I have a 70x70 with so many plants has set the RH and thankfully it's not what it was which was touching on 80rh at some days. A bigger tent and I'll really be able to dial in my grows now I have all the tools to control RH/TEMP from S/H. For now 57%RH when it's low and 62% when the lights are on for a few hours. Stays around 57-60% atm for around 85% of the time. Temp is constant and doesn't change without my control within a range of 4-6c change difference, this number I have no problem in changing and I'll be making my tent a lot cooler after this wk ends. I'll be keeping her at 18c with lights off and 28 with lights on. As for this plant she is a little gem. For 5 nodes she has a lovely shape and in this plants case there really is nothing that should be done to it at this stage, just let her beauty unfold. gottagrowsometime

Hello, friends! It's been an exciting second week of flowering in the Anesia run, and I can't wait to share all the amazing progress with you. Our lovely ladies are well into their flowering stage, and the changes are spectacular! The transition from vegetative growth to blooming is always thrilling, and this week has been no exception. We've adjusted the nutrient mix to support their flowering needs. Here’s what’s been on the menu: Regulator: Keeps plants stress-free and promotes healthy growth. CalMag Boost: Ensures they get enough calcium and magnesium for robust bud development. Top Booster: Enhances flower production and increases the number of bud sites. P Boost: Provides the phosphorus needed for energy transfer and flowering. Watering pH: Maintained at 5.8 to ensure optimal nutrient uptake. TDS: Held steady at 420, giving them the perfect balance of nutrients. The Anesia Beauties 🌟 Each plant is showing unique characteristics, and it's fascinating to watch them develop their own personalities. The buds are starting to form nicely, and the aroma is beginning to fill the air. Future #1: This strain is living up to its hype, with dense bud formation and a vibrant green color. Zoomiez: Looking strong with vigorous growth and promising flower sites. Apricot Oreo: Developing beautifully with a sweet fragrance that’s already noticeable. Red Banana Pudding: The solo survivor is a true champion, showing great resilience and structure. Training Techniques This week, I focused on some light defoliation and training to ensure optimal light penetration and air circulation. These techniques are crucial for maximizing yield and preventing mold or mildew. Maintaining the perfect environment is key. Temperature is kept at a steady 25°C, ensuring the plants are comfortable and stress-free. Humidity levels are carefully monitored to avoid any issues during the flowering stage. I've captured some stunning shots of the girls in full bloom, which I'll be sharing on Instagram. The sight of those trichome-covered buds is truly a feast for the eyes. A huge thank you to: Anesia Seeds for these amazing genetics. Aptus Holland for providing top-notch organic nutrients. Future of Grow LED for the incredible lighting that keeps our garden thriving.

Two watering and 1 feeding this week. They received their last dose of Flora Micro (3ml/ gal) and higher doses of Bloom (10ml/gal) I've also defoliated them for the last time ------------- CBD will be ready for harvest sooner, probably ~5 days. Thus, she'll receive only water this week Moby Dick still 10~14 days, so she'll receive more heavy nuts this week Gorilla Glue needs 7-10 days, so she'll also receive more heavy nuts. It'll be difficult to harvest them in different batches due to space constrains, so I'll probably chop them next week (in 6 days)

Bueno, para no perder a nadie, el sistema que manejo es con dos indoors en paralelo. Uno en flora y otro creciendo la madre. A la madre la hago crecer hasta sacarle esquejes. Luego pasan al otro indoor, la madre y los esquejes, y ahí comienza la floración. Y ahí mismo comienza la nueva madre en el indoor pequeño. La variedad es de un banco argentino que no sé si sigue existiendo. Se llama "kali seeds" y la variedad es superhaze. Que en teoría tiene unas 10 semanas de floración. Día 01. Puse la planta para obligarme a terminar el prototipo. En este caso decidí usar madera de palets y algunas otras cosas que encontré en la calle. Ya casi termino todo, pero me falta armar los cierres. No voy a hacer puertas, dado que no está centrado, así que uso una tela de microfibra que ayuda a opacar mucho y era mas barata que el blackout. Ademas es impermeable y me sirve para un nuevo mecanismo de seguridad para fugas que quiero implementar. Es bastante simple, pero me soluciona mucho. Hoy no hay mucho más que mostrar. Cuando lo haya terminado voy a ir mostrando como va quedando. No me voy a enroscar con los tsp. Voy a poner lo que use aca. Ahora puse un litro de agua con un poco menos de 1g. de Feeding Grow de Greenhouse. Al menos por ahora, ya que tengo que comprar medidores porque los míos ya no dan confianza. Día 4. Ya estoy terminando de acomodar el indoor. Lo forré con refractario e instalé las "puertas" que en realidad son telas tipo blackout, pero mucho más finitas. Me falta terminar de ordenar la electricidad para que cada sector tenga su timer. Van a ser 3 timer diferentes. Por un lado van a ir luces y ventilaciones de flora (12hs). Por otro lado bombas de aire, bomba de agua y probablemente vientos de floración (15 min/hr). Y por último luz y ventilación del modulo de madres (18hs). Hice el cambio del depósito, a uno de 5 litros, ya que los próximos 10 dias pienso intentar mantener la misma solución (mantuve la proporción 1g/L de feeding grow). La planta tuvo un ataque de una plaga que fue a sus primeras hojas. Por suerte en el momento puse tierra de diatomeas y parece haberse detenido. Pero se pueden ver los amarillos en las puntas. No me preocupa, dado que en hidroponia esos problemas se resuelven y la planta se recobra enseguida. Ahora igual habrá que ir monitoreando, dado que me había olvidado de desinfectar el indoor, cosa que hice luego de este ataque. Tengo fé que llegando al mes y medio de crecimiento, ya esté en condiciones de cortar unos esquejes. Día 07. Por el momento el crecimiento viene rápido cómo suele ser en hidroponia. En unos días le voy a estar haciendo el corte apical. La ansiedad me viene ganando, pero sigo con fé. Esta semana tengo que comprar un par de aditivos y medidores que me están faltando. Pero ya está todo encaminado.
