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"

16 days transplant to 3.5 gal Dutch bucket with perlite. Auto watered every 6 hrs with newts ppm 680 we will get some burn. It will be ok. Should be mild but strain depending. We She all see who gets upset. They are now in the Greenhouse. So it's up to the Sun and 2 - 1000 watt HPS ( for supplemental light ). Grab a chair and hold on. Don't forget the popcorn.

~ GG4 SHERBET FAST FLOWER by FastBuds ~ Well fam, here we go again with another epic strain from FastBuds Fast Flowering stable. After having such tremendous success growing their Gorilla Cookies Fast Flower outdoors last year, I've decided to run another of their fast flowering strains outdoors this year... GG4 Sherbet Fast Flower! The best description of this awesome cultivar comes directly from my friends at FastBuds which is as follows: "Bred from extremely potent and flavorful Gorilla Glue and Orange Sherbet genetics, GG4 Sherbet FF (Fast-Flowering) takes all the best traits to the next level, offering a high-yielding strain that can produce up to 600 g/m2 in a 7-week flowering time. This super resilient Indica-leaning hybrid thrives indoors and outdoors, and in all types of climates while producing mouth-watering sweet, fruity, spicy and earthy terps that translate into a delicious sugary hazelnut aroma. Expect an extremely relaxing and overall happy effect that’ll leave you with a huge smile from ear to ear. It’s the perfect strain for growers of all levels of experience seeking low-maintenance yet highly productive photoperiod varieties that deliver quality and quantity without extra effort. GG4 Sherbet FF grows chunky buds with long dark orange hairs and spade-shaped calyxes that get encrusted with trichomes by harvest time, giving them a gorgeous silvery-white appearance. This medium-sized photoperiod can reach up to 200 cm in height and yields up to 650 g/m2 while developing that typical hybrid structure. GG4 Sherbet FF grows with a stocky, bushy appearance, developing one sturdy main cola and fat side branches that support huge yields without much effort. This super-fast variety produces distinctive light-green buds with a high bud-to-leaf ratio, making your trimming sessions a breeze. It’s a top-notch resin producer that doesn’t need much maintenance and will thrive in almost every climate, rewarding growers of all levels with extremely flavorful resin that makes for outstanding hash end extracts." ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The Setup: This is going to be an outdoor grow, but I have started the GG4 Sherbet Fast Flower indoors as our weather is still too cold to put her outside (nighttime temp's dipping regularly into the 30's℉). The plan is simple... let her grow inside under a 19/5 light schedule until the nighttime temperatures stay above the mid 40's℉, at which point she'll be moved outside and transplanted into the soil which I have already setup and inoculated with beneficial microbes, and then let the fun begin!🤪💚 ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Weekly Updates: 7/1- Here we go into the FastBuds GG4 Sherbet Fast Flower's 13th week from seed and this lady is kickin ass and taking names! I am continuing to water late in the afternoon on days when we don't get any rain and she seems to like it. I will also be top dressing her in about two weeks to keep the microbial colony fat and happy! 7/3- The weather continues to be hot and humid and the daily watering of the GG4 Sherbet FF continues. I also removed a few shade leaves that were below the canopy, as well as some in the middle of the plant that were blocking a lot of light to new shoots. 🎉HAPPY 4th of JULY!🎉 7/5- Early this morning we had a thunderstorm pass through early in the day, which provided about an inch of rain in a short time. I went ahead and watered in the afternoon, but only gave the GG4 Sherbet FF approx. 3g of well water from the garden hose. 7/7- The daily watering continues, as does our blistering hot🔥weather. All is well with the FastBuds GG4 Sherbet Fast Flower and today, after watering, I got under the trellis net and removed a bunch of shade leaves that were growing straight down through the net doing absolutely nothing but sucking up nutrients better used elsewhere on the plant. Stick a fork in another week for the FastBuds GG4 Sherbet Fast Flower. This beautiful cultivar has gone through a tremendous growth spurt and I am hoping to see her begin to transition into flower over the course of the next couple of weeks... stay tuned! 😎✌️ Thank you for checking out my diary, your positive comments and support make it all worthwhile! 💚Growers Love!💚😎🙏

Welcome to week 6 of flower for this lovely project! Last week was exciting this week should be even more exciting! With the ladies beginning to put on serious weight it's only a matter of time before I'll have to install a second net to help support the branches. With this being about the halfway point I'm excited to see them at the finish line! Huge shout outs to @MarsHydroLED for making epic lights and tents for people to grow in! Huge shout outs to all my followers and people who stop into the diary alike! Keep inspiring to grow! -The Projexx Day#36F Creamy Cereal is PUMPING frost now with its undeniable smell of fruit loops and milk. Day#37F Ladies are putting on mass and quickly! Day#38F Macmelonz continues to stretch and stack but looks like its nearing the end for her stretch phase. Hopefully she pumps HUGE kickass flowers for me. Day#39F Flowers are almost the size of a soda can now. The trichomes on these plants are wild like trichomes over trichomes. The flowers have really picked up on the aroma department as well very please with the plants. Day#40F Raised the light abit, Flowers are starting to display colour in them now can't wait to see them in a few weeks! Day#41F Pictures N/A. Ladies are still beefing up flowers some of the pistols are starting to turn. Day#42F Ladies are still putting on mass daily. Lots of lovely unique smells coming from the plants. Recap: Things went well this week , the ladies really put on some mass and all the flowers are hard as rocks! I will be taking away leaves over the course of the coming weeks to ensure the airflow to the flowers. Excited to see what the coming weeks bring!

Easy grow cycle, 5 weeks of vegetation and 7 to 8 weeks of flowering and they are good to harvest. For drying I only removed the bigger fan leaves. Now they are hanging upside down in the tent to dry for about 8 to 10 days before trimming and getting a proper dry weight.

D71/FD43 - Sooo...its all gone a bit to dick this week! So, as noted before, Oscillating RAM fans keep blowing on me. Just stop dead and haven't got a chance to get down the 90miles to get them replaced again. Well, noticed a few leaves that looked like they may be a bit light coloured...only 1 or 2, at the top buds which is strange and not really an N deficiency...so I looked more closely....4 buds with the dreaded fur on them!!! Fucking Bud Rot!!! Ones closest to the door that would get the biggest temp differential (So the weirdest humidity) and no air really getting round them!!! Talk about a SICKNER! This grow just seems to be blighted (literally) with something new every 3 weeks!!! So, had to chop a few tops and now going to be on the defensive for the next few weeks. We're not yet ripe and *hoping* as these had the least air movement round them, the spores didn't get about the place!!! Worst as well is the height of all the plants...cant get the UVB bulb in there for fear of burning them but that would potentially sterilise the fungus (I'd usually be using a 10K finisher this week but with the change to LED...) so now to work out what to do. Also didn't help that I didn't put the lid on my tank right last night doing a check and think i pumped about 10L of water about the place!!! Yip, today was a disaster!!! So, apart from that, I've dropped the Silicon and changed to TNC bactorr for my root inoculant (Out of great white). Apart from that, happy growing all!!! 💪

Started the week with a sledgehammer flush. Noted the tips to be turning down and browning. Might be nutrient lock out so flushed with sledgehammer. Then three hours later a gallon fresh water flush. Two days later re-added nutrients as listed. Not sure how much longer these will go. Assume another 4-6 weeks before they tell me they are ready. No amber yet.

These are a dream to grow big yield fat buds hopefully nice they just grow big and have a long flowering time I think I had two different phenos one was short and bushy and one was huge and one is really frosty and one is huge budded with little frost they take to basically all training very well did lst extreme lst topping and a bit of bowl training one of the plants was over 6ft too big for my liking they produce very well I think they should yield nicely will be growing this strain again if she smokes as nice as she looks will update when dry ...yield let me down was expecting more lol I think the problem with this grow was I grew too much plant not enough buds couldnt get round to sorting things how I would have liked but happy with the smoke the 297 was shared between 3 so I only have 99g to show dry thanks for reading happy growing guys thanks for following the journey 0

Performed some light lst and topped all plants, then feed some recharge. They bounced back pretty fast they didn’t show no signs of stress so that’s a good thing. I’m give them one more week in the 1 gallons and then transplant to 3 gallon Keep up this grow is epic

DE: In der achten Blütewoche erreicht Last Dance ein Stadium, das kaum noch in Worte zu fassen ist. Die Pflanzen wirken wie komplett überzogen von Kristallen, die Farben brechen durch, und die Terpene explodieren in einer Komplexität, die man nur bei echten High-End-Genetiken erlebt. Alles an diesen Pflanzen schreit: Finale – Premium – Elite. Phänotyp 1 – Der dunkle Funkgott Der Black-Magic-lastige Phäno läuft jetzt auf absolutem Endlevel. Die Sugar Leaves sind so dicht gefrostet, dass sie fast weiß erscheinen, während zwischen den Kelchen tiefe, dunkle Violett- und Schwarzgrün-Töne hervorkommen. Diese Farbkontraste wirken wie perfekt abgestimmt – als hätte die Genetik genau für diesen Moment designed worden. Die Buds sind jetzt maximal geschwollen: Die Kelche drücken sich übereinander, die Harzdrüsen stehen wie kleine Diamanten hervor, und die gesamte Textur wirkt dick, kompakt und schwer. Aromaentwicklung in Woche 8: Die Gassigkeit ist noch tiefer geworden, bekommt aber jetzt eine warme, dunkle Süße dazu. Noten von fermentierter Beere, altem Hash, tiefem Wald und schwerem Funk verschmelzen zu einem Terpenprofil, das wirklich nur Top-Tier-Phenos erreichen. Beim Anfassen bleiben dicke ölige Harzspuren an den Fingern – klassisches Zeichen für extrem hohe Harzproduktion und Potenz. Phänotyp 2 – Der saftige Zangria-Phantom Der fruchtigere Phäno blüht in Woche 8 optisch komplett auf. Die Pink- und Lilatöne sind jetzt viel deutlicher geworden und ziehen sich teilweise sogar in die Kelche hinein. Der Frost-Level ist so hoch, dass die Buds wirken, als wären sie von einer dünnen Glas-Schicht überzogen. Aroma in Woche 8: Das Terpenprofil ist inzwischen eine Symphonie aus: dunkler Traube, süßer Rotwein-Note, tropischen Früchten, frischer Kirsche und einer leichten Zitruswürze im Nachklang. Es ist nicht mehr „fruchtig“ – es ist komplex, schwer, dicht und riecht wie ein komplett eigener Signature-Terpenmix, der selten in dieser Form vorkommt. Beim Öffnen des Zelts mischt sich dieses Zangria-Bouquet mit dem dunklen Funk des ersten Phenos – ein absolut einzigartiges Erlebnis. Gesamteindruck Woche 8 – Der Höhepunkt vor dem Finale Jetzt in dieser Phase ist die Pflanze auf ihrem Zenit: - Buds komplett geschwollen - Farben brechen maximal durch - Trichome glasig-milchig, erste Amber-Punkte sichtbar - Aroma extrem komplex und deutlich intensiver - Harzanteil auf beeindruckendem Niveau – selbst Stängel sind sticky Die Pflanzen sehen aus wie Showcase-Material für eine Breeder-Website. Blick auf Woche 9 – Der perfekte Zeitpunkt zum Spülen In der kommenden 9. Blütewoche beginnt das Final Flush. EN: Week 8 – The Last Dance Showcase Phase By the eighth week of flowering, Last Dance enters a stage that’s almost impossible to capture with words. The plants look fully crystallized, the colors break through aggressively, and the terpene expression becomes so layered and complex that it feels like a signature masterpiece of high-end genetics. Everything about these plants says: Final stretch – premium – elite cut potential. Pheno 1 – The Dark Funk Titan This Black-Magic-leaning phenotype is now performing at absolute top-tier level. The sugar leaves are so heavily frosted they appear nearly white, while deep violet and dark forest-green tones push through the calyxes. The contrast is insane – almost cinematic – as if the strain was bred exactly for this late-flower moment. The buds are now at maximum swell: Calyxes stack aggressively, trichomes stand tall and dense like crystals, the entire flower mass looks heavy, tight, and fully matured. Aroma development in Week 8: The gassy core has become darker and richer, now wrapped in warm, heavy sweetness. Notes of fermented berry, old-school hashish, deep forest funk, and that unmistakable dark Black Magic spiciness fuse together into a terpene profile only elite phenos deliver. Touching the buds leaves thick, oily resin streaks on your fingers — a classic indicator of extremely high potency and mature resin glands. Pheno 2 – The Juicy Zangria Phantom The fruit-forward phenotype hits full visual bloom in Week 8. Pink and purple hues become more pronounced, bleeding slightly into the calyx tips. The frost level is so extreme the buds look like they’re coated in a thin sheet of glass. Aroma in Week 8: This terpene profile is now a full symphony of: dark grape, sweet red wine, tropical berry, fresh cherry, and a citrusy sparkle in the finish. It’s not “fruity” anymore — it’s deep, layered, complex, and genuinely rare in its structure. When you open the tent, the Zangria bouquet blends with the dark funk of Pheno 1, creating an aroma that feels completely unique and unmistakable. Overall Impression Week 8 – The Peak Before the Finale At this stage, the plant is on its absolute zenith: - Buds fully swollen - Colors breaking through in maximum intensity - Trichomes milky with scattered amber - Aroma dramatically intensified and highly complex - Resin production at showcase level — even stems feel sticky The flowers look like something straight from a breeder’s promotional photoshoot. Looking Ahead to Week 9 – The Final Flush In the upcoming 9th week, you begin the final flush. This stage ensures: a clean fade of excess nutrients, boosted terpene purity and clarity, smooth, clean-burning ash, and the highest possible quality for your final product. During the flush week, colors often deepen even further, buds harden up, and the aroma becomes sharper, more defined, and unmistakably finished.

8/2: Everybody is potted up in a 3 gallon pot now. I sprayed them all with Boom Boom Spray one day, and foliar fed with kelp and Superthive all week. They got their first real feeding with TPS One and seemed to like it. I also gave them a little molasses.
