I gave Isopropyl alcohol 70% equal parts water, 1 tsp cayenne, and kept enough for multiday application, what little population of aphids is left I shall catch them the next morning, opening the tent 10 min before lights on the clovers have yet to open, all the aphids hiding on the undersides are easily visible, still none ever went near cannabis plant. Clovers are far tastier it seems. The alcohol kills on contact, the idea was to saturate the leaves with a light foliar application, and once I was done I ran it through the canopy with my hands, making sure as much of the clover surface came in contact with the iso, once done, I turned on the fans and evaporated it quickly. The beautiful thing about Isopropyl is that it evaporates rapidly at room temperature, way below boiling point leaving behind zero residual so nothing seeps its way into root zones unless you spill it there. It is a magical solvent that leaves no trace that it was ever there. Resonant Frequency: A resonant frequency is the natural vibrating frequency of an object and is denoted as ‘f’ with a subscript zero (f0). When an object is in equilibrium with acting forces and can keep vibrating for a long time under perfect conditions, this phenomenon is resonance. In our daily life example of a resonant frequency is a pendulum. If we pull back the pendulum and leave, it will swing out and return at its resonant frequency. Objects combine to form a system, this system can have more than one resonance frequency. The resonant frequency is termed as the resonance frequency. The phenomena of resonant frequency used in the series circuit when the inductive reactance (XL) is equal to the capacitive reactance (XC). If the value of supply frequency is changed, we can observe that the value inductive reactance (XL) and capacitive reactance (XC) is also changed. Inductive reactance (XL) and capacitive reactance (XC) are inversely proportional to each other. When we increase the frequency, the value of XL increases, whereas the value of XC decreases. When we decrease the frequency, the value of XL decreases whereas the value of XC increases. At series resonance, when XL = XC. The mathematical equation of resonant frequency is: XL = 2πfL; XC = 1/2πfC XL = XC 2π f0L = 1/ 2πf0C ; f0=1/2π sqrt{LC} Where f0 is the resonant frequency, L is the inductance, C is the capacitance How to Calculate the Resonant Frequency of an Object? An object exposed to its resonant frequency can vibrate in symphony with the sound. The wavefronts pushing on the object will arrive at just the right time to push the object with greater and greater amplitude in each cycle. To get a clear idea of this concept one of the best examples is pushing a friend on a swing. If you push the swing randomly, the swing will not move very well but if you push the swing at a specific time, the swing will get higher and higher. Another example to find the resonant frequencies is to place the object next to a speaker and place a microphone attached to an oscilloscope next to the object. Then play the sound in the speaker at a given volume, and then without changing the volume slowly change the frequency. Now observe the oscilloscope, you will observe that at certain frequencies the amplitude of the wave, is proportional to the volume of the sound that the microphone is able to pick up. The frequency that is caught by the microphone will be greater than at surrounding frequencies. These are the resonant frequencies and are detectable as the sound energy absorbed by the object is re-emitted more efficiently at these frequencies. The precise moment that constructive interference happens the amplitude of the wave will spike at the precise frequency emitted. Q: Compute the resonant frequency of a circuit whose inductance is 25mH and capacitance is 5mu F? A: Known values are, L = 25mH = 25 x 10-3 H C = 5mu F = 5 x 10-6 F Formula for resonant frequency is, f0= 1/2π sqrt{LC}1/2π√L f0=1/2 ͯ 3.14√ (25 ͯ 10-3 ͯ 5 ͯ 10-6) = 450.384Hz Why Neodymium? Ferromagnetism is an exciting phenomenon observed in certain materials, known as ferromagnetic materials, that can retain their magnetization even after removing an external magnetic field. Ferromagnetic materials can become ferromagnets and interact strongly with other magnets and magnetic fields. A characteristic of ferromagnetic materials is their magnetization ability, distinguishing them from paramagnetic and diamagnetic materials, where weak magnetism exists temporarily. This unique property allows for making permanent magnets widely used in various applications such as motors, generators, speakers, and data storage devices. The ability to generate and maintain a magnetic field without the need for a constant external source of power makes ferromagnets highly valuable. An alloy of neodymium, iron, and boron discovered in the 1980s is ferromagnetic, yielding permanent magnets over 1000 times stronger than anything ever seen before. The name neodymium comes from the Greek neos didumous, which means "new twin." Neodymium magnets are made of an alloy of neodymium, boron, and iron. This allows them to simultaneously store impressive amounts of magnetic energy while being highly resistant to demagnetization. Because iron oxidizes quickly, neodymium magnets are coated to prevent rust from accumulating. The attraction between two neodymium magnets is so strong that if placed close enough together, they can collide and shatter. Neodymium magnets have an unusually high-temperature resistance, and they can even withstand heat exceeding 200 degrees Celsius. N50UH 1-1/2"OD x 1.065"ID x 3/8"

Hello! For this setup i´ll use Optic 1 XL in a 80cmx80cm tent, (indoor grow), with temperature, humidity and air flow controled... Have heard great things about Real Cookies and now it´s time to grow it! Have successfully germinated 2 seeds out of 2 using the easy start kit from RQS, 100 % rate! (made a DIY box and used the wireless router to keep it warm) Notice this seeds have sprouted in less than 48h it´s a personal record to me! I´m using Janeco light mix and prepared the soil with the the easy boost organic nutrition before reporting the seedlings... It´s time to turn on the lights and let the mother nature do the magic!

Amazing told this run 110 grams of bud and 80 grams of shake. An amazing pungent fruity citrus cream cheese aroma eminates out of my cure vault. The high has been described by my friends as a creative uplifting high followed by intense couch lock. The grow itself was a breeze. The only real issues i had in the hydro grow was that i needed to to add cal mag because it was growing so fast and i was using distilled water. I basically did not train my plants other than defoliating to make space for air flow and light penetration. I would recommend this for any first time hydro grower that has a decent amount of space.

Switched the plants to flower this week and have noticed tons of growth since. Both plants have turned out to be female and are both producing pistils. Have run into a potential problem while defoliating I noticed a couple leaves on one stem that look like they were burnt almost. They weren’t bad but I haven’t noticed it anywhere else. I looked over a lot of the leaves with a healers loupe under 60x magnification and didn’t notice and insects, the leaves were also growing into the side of the tent so that might be what cause it but not too sure.

This week they got their last feeding today by top dressing the medium working it in the top couple inches and getting thoroughly drenched with some calmag and fox farms kangaroots microbe liquid. Shouldn't have to do anything from here on out except water and admire the ladies.

7/14/23 - Day 32 - Switched to flower today. It will get its first dose of 12 hrs. of daylight, 12 hrs. of dark. This will tell the plant to start budding. I'm excited to see the bud's form. So far everything with the Leaf system is going great. I'm excited to show the next few weeks as they happen! 7/16/23 - Day 34 - The plant is bushing out big now. It's getting tall. I'm a little worried we waited for a little too long, but who knows? We shall see. 7/20/23 - Day 38 - She is a few days into flower, and she is sprouting up like crazy. I bought another Scrogg net. I'm going to try and double Scrogg? is that a thing? Lol I just know that I need to keep these buds from hitting the lights. I think I'll be able to get all of this to work well, but I am nervous about the height. I can see some pistils starting to poke out! 7/21/23 - Day 39 - The lights turn off at 2am and back on at 2pm, so right now I'm waiting to open the box up for the day. But I was looking back at the pictures and trying not to freak out about how big she is (I'm worried about the lights, they don't move, and Shes is MASSIVE already) One thing I noticed about the pictures is that I have not had a single leaf turn yellow, or get spots, or have curling leaves, or have any issues with the plant. I would expect some sort of dying leave somewhere, but no. Not one single leaf has been less than perfect, I mean PERFECT. It seems like this LEAF growing box is literally the perfect environment.

Well its been a good run with this pheno , she's the biggest plant i've grown so far and has excelled in bud production litterally everywhere. The shogun nutrients seem to have worked really well with no deficiencies throughout the grow . I've stop using dragon force now and am just feeding ph'd water for these final few days. I am looking forward to sampleing soon my gelato has also done really well with some nice dense buds

Il ciclo è stato veloce e veramente molto produttivo! E stata superata 3 volte in modo che avesse 8 cole principali, i realtà poteva prendersi un altra tagliata (per riuscire ad averne 16) ma non ho voluto farlo perche avevo un vaso da 8 litri, se avessi avuto un vaso più grande sicuramente avrei continuato a fare topping! E stato un vero piacere vederla crescere ho voluto farla crescere fino a quando avesse avuto i tricomi al 30ambra e 70 latte e così ho fatto! Ho controllato con il mio lumagny 100x e una volta raggiunto un 10ambra e 90 latte ho iniziato fare il flush (dando solo acqua ed enzimi per i primi 4 giorni e per i successivi 7 ho dato solo acqua. Quando ho controllato i ppm di scarico defluiva solo 380-400ppm (che era i ppm dell'acqua iniziale).... E stato bellissimo lavorare a questo progetto con tutti questi sponsor perché ogniuno a modo suo mi ha insegnato qualcosa è come potete vedere i risultati parlano da soli! Le piante non mentono MAI!😝 Volevo anche offrire l'opportunità a tutti voi di poter acquistare qualsiasi cosa voi vogliate su hempatianetwork oppure su bioponicagrowshop con il 20% di sconto basta inserire il coupon con il codice: CURATIDASOLO ed in automatico avrai il 20% su tutti gli articoli! Spero che sia di aiuto! La prossima settimana pubblicherò le foto del raccolto (veramente generoso pesata con tutti gli steli superava il kg!) Non voglio svelarvi adesso il peso perché vorrei conservarlo per la.prossima settimana come sorpresa per tutti voi quindi miraccomando STAY TUNED! 🌈🌱👇🏼

This week the photoperiods showed clear progress in vegetative growth, with bigger leaves spreading out and new nodes stacking in nicely. Their color has stayed healthy and consistent, confirming they’re settling well into their 1-gallon pots. On August 26, beneficial nematodes were applied during a watering to boost pest prevention and protect the soil long-term. Humidity and temperature have been monitored closely, with minor adjustments made to keep the VPD in a safe range. By midweek, the canopy began to fill out more evenly, and the plants are looking strong and balanced. Overall, Week 3 has been about steady development, root expansion, and keeping the environment stable. They’re now building a solid foundation for future training and shaping as veg continues.

These ladies have really been through it, they had beed getting fed everyday by my roommate in what I can only assume was an attempt to hill them because my plants looked better than his. I've been trying to baby them and slowly they are bouncing back

05/25/22 changed nutrient water PH 6.11 TDS 932. Planning on doing a small defoliation, plant has alot of leaves. Removed LST. 05/26/22 PH 6.19 TDS 906 05/27/22 PH 6.15 TDS 780 05/28/22 PH 6.09 TDS 900 found a couple leaves with spots. Calcium deficiency? Checked PH was fine, checked PH pen, was not fine 😢, recalibrate to proper and recheck PH. running at PH 5.67. Added PH-up and flushed. Fingers crossed 🤞 05/29/22 PH 6.13 TDS 915 had to tie plant, the weight is making it tip in pot. Plant was leaning on back wall. 05/30/22 PH 6.18 TDS 756 05/31/22 PH 6.10 TDS 900

12/12-Tried to get the girls in the ground 14 days after sprouting but life got in the way. They spent 17 days under a blue light for root growth. They are planted into some high quality living soil. The room is clean and ready to go! Planted 3 in 7 gallon pots, planted the other 3 in 5 gallon pots. We will see who yields more or the same 🤷‍♂️🏽. I am going to push these girls hard! Purple City Genetics TONGUE KISS- Grapenana X PapayaBomb 12/14- Turned the lights up today. They are running about 3100 PAR MMOL. This Mylar is 97% reflective. It cannot be attached fixed. It needs to be installed dynamic so the light is diffused and not focused. Lighting the room and not the plant when possible is ideal. The clones in the pics are from the CloneGuy. I may start a diary on those 🤷‍♂️🏽

Agora já estamos com ela na oitava semana de floração, ela continua se desenvolvendo em novos pistilos e cada vez mais se aproxima de um fruto maduro. Hoje ja posso dizer que o resultado seria bem satisfatório, se fizesse a colheita, mas vejo que ela tem potencial pra estender o ciclo até a décima semana. Estou me programando para colher daqui oito dias.

Week two went good there was a bit of underwatering on my part, these ladies drink! The breeder did warn me about that though. Beside the underwatering things look good. Next week they'll be transplanted to final 11L fabric pots. Happy Growing!

Hi all, sorry for the delay, all continues to go very well, she is handling the nutrients very well wit only a very little tip burn. I increased the light a little bit, as I felt that some of the main colas on the side didn't get enough light. Next week I will probably be able to show the little veg-box I built, since the cuttings are slowly outgrowing their current home.
