The holiday season got away from me a bit and prevented me from getting an update in on Monday but the plants are _really_ taking off. There are now visible bud sites and plenty of them. *Full Disclosure*: I've significantly upgraded my light in my flower tent from a Spider Farmer SF-2000 to a Spider Farmer SF-4000 and, as such, I'll likely see my yield take off quite a bit this grow. It's certainly having an impact on the heat in the tent and, subsequently, the amount of time the in-line fan is running; that being said, the plants appear to be responding quite well! The last two grows I've run have fallen off hard (complete and total yellowing/chlorosis and drying out regardless of consistent watering/light/nutes/pH) around week five of flower and, with that in mind, I'm trying to keep this grow as simple as possible. I'm purposely using no advanced grow techniques where I'd usually top, LST, and HST. The only "advanced" technique I'm using is a bit of defoliation but this is mainly just to avoid some of the dense bottom growth that tends to decrease air flow, increase humidity, and take away from more rewarding top-growth. This week, along with replenishing nutrients, I've fully emptied out and cleaned my reservoir. While doing so, I noticed a fair amount of red-ish algae growth which I'll likely address with more consistent cleaning of the reservoir and some sort of additive (I'd welcome any suggestions and dosage if you've got any suggestions). All in all, great progress.

Clones got transplanted into 1gal Rapid Stack pots, this will facilitate the next transplant into the live soil grow bed with no stress. Quick and easy transplanting with no root shock or damage to the plant. Plants still drinking rain water, top dressed with Bokashi Pro-Gro, the soil is recycled and organic :) Check my Instagram for more grow content @GirlGoneWeed

Bonjour mes amis, ...Le 18 Juin 2021..Jour #78... ...Flowering Day #3... Début de la 12 semaine et deuxième jour de floraison pour mes trois Edam Bomb Feminisées. Tout va pour le mieux, je les ai rempoté dans des pots de 19, 16 et 14 litres. Je suis déçu des pots de 11 litres, je trouve que ce n'est pas assez pour le travail que je veux faire.. J'ai incorporé 5gr/litre de BioBloom de chez Green House Feeding. Du coup je leurs donne que de l'eau et une fois tout les 15 jours du Bio-Enhancer. Éclairage : Mars-Hydro Tsw 2000 à 50% de puissance et à 50 cm de la canopé. Voilà c'est tout pour l'instant mes amis. Merci à vous d'être passé par là.. Prenez soin de vous..😘 À bientôt..

Flowering nicely, starting to stack a little already. Did a 50% defoliation and removal today. going to remove some more popcorns and climate blockers tommorow. There are allot of tops. I have to train myself on training plants better to dial in how many cola tops i want and get them at the same height. Not a strong smell coming off but when you smeel the fingers , Ooohhh its so smooth ans sweet. This is looking like its going to be a big year for the tent. I am liking the Canna nutes. Delay after delay on dripper setup i am now puttin three more valves in for flushing off flush water reservoir, just waiting for parts and assembly. Home Assistant is fantastic at controlling entire setup! Lets roll with it.

First grow ever! Popped the seeds while still working out the kinks on the misting system. Growing in a custom built 24" x 36" x 48" fully insulated box. I've got the fans and humidifier dialed in to hold temps and humidity steady during the day and am only losing about 6°C during lights out (Depending on temperature in Garage). Everyone was sprouted in Rapid Rooters surrounded by hydroton. Right now I'm tweaking the misting system with solenoids to minimize dripping as I'd like to go water-to-waste... but without being super wasteful. Only the two autos (AKxCM and SCH) will be staying in the box for the duration of the grow. The other four seedlings are photos and will be moved to a sunny window to put on some size prior to being moved outdoors towards the end of May. I'm a total rookie, but have tried to pay lots of attention to other diaries and lots of forums. I'm sure i'll make some mistakes along the way, but hopefully ya'll will keep me on the true garden path. I'm looking forward to all your questions, comments, and nasty remarks.

On day 1 the reservoirs PH is steady at 6.2. The rez ppm is 271. On day 2 I turned off the irrigation to deprive the plants of water for 2 days until harvest. I set up my dry tent with a humidifier set up with a humidity controller set to 60% and temps 67-70F.I harvested one branch to dry and test parameters. I will be harvesting in 2 days. On day 3 I'm excited about harvesting tomorrow! I think this strain probably is going to be at peak at day 56-60 but I don't have time to wait that long as my next run coming up after harvest needs to be finished before I go on a vacation in spring and harvesting early gives me just enough time to flower 7-9 weeks with a dry before leaving to go on vacation. The total flowering time for this run will be 53 days. The top colas have mostly gone milky with some amber mixed in and the lowers aren't all completely cloudy yet but probably 75% milky 25% clear. I enjoy a little earlier harvest anyways because I can get my Indica to give me a little boost of energy!

Day 78 from seed touching soil. #1 was eaten by bud rot, really heavy, buds all in dirt, she was very low, overstreched from lack of light and water, so went all to bin. Two plants were worthless, last hope on late one . #2 is still going, shows preflowers, big plant. Happy Growing !!!

Quality strain but my buds could have been denser/chunkier, growers error, my first LST and I stressed her into flower too early

If you are lonely when you are alone, then you are in bad company. Bee pollen is considered a “vitamin bomb” due to the presence of almost all vitamins with an average of 0.02–0.7% of its total content, with a higher amount of water-soluble than fat-soluble vitamins. Bee pollen contains vitamins A, D, E, B1, B2, B6, and C. It also provides minerals such as calcium, magnesium, phosphorus, potassium, zinc, copper, manganese, iron, and selenium, I mixed a bunch of that with some honey and RAW cane molasses to make a nice big bucket of tea. A family friend who is a beekeeper was kind enough to share some honey. The nutritional content of raw honey is impressive and includes high levels of protein, amino acids, B vitamins, calcium, manganese, potassium, magnesium, zinc, and iron, as well as various polyphenolic antioxidants. I am loading up nature's finest sugars, and sweet things, Honey & Mollases. UV-B-induced DNA damage (CPDs and 6–4 PPs) can be repaired efficiently by photolyases. Pyrimidine dimers can be repaired by nucleotide excision repair (NER), or bypassed by replicative polymerases (Britt 2004). The expression of the CPD photolyase (PHR) gene is induced by UV-B light dependent on UVR8 signaling pathway, and is also induced by blue and UV-A light (Li et al. 2015) https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s44154-022-00076-9?fromPaywallRec=true Old but gold. The camera picks up far more light than there is during the night cycle, camera is showing bright pink violet collages but my eyes barely see a thing, about 0.25ppfd in that tent overnight. Have been tweaking the spectrum of moonlight/intensity and watching the responses overnight. Tweak, tweak, tweak all week. PAR is 400-700nm, Overnight UVA in the tent is all 365nm and 385nm, so the meter only picks up a fraction of the light curve that makes it photosynthetically active past 400nm. Of the light in the tent, 0.25ppfd is from UVA Looks like It makes them 🕺 🕺 💃 all night. Better flower soon or ill be screwed for space, they are stretching, but is it "the stretch"? She has fire in her belly. Growing crops with insufficient light (i.e., below “optimal,” as defined here) limits the yield potential, which in turn wastes the other production inputs including labour, water, nutrients and electricity. As lighting fixture is one of the most expensive investment of the production, what is the relationship between light intensity and yield? Potter and Duncombe (2012) grew cannabis plants with varying canopy-level PPFDs during the flowering stage and found that increasing PPFD from 400 to 900 μmol·m−2·s−1 increased yield an average of 1.3 times higher, across seven cultivars, with no light intensity treatment effects on floral cannabinoid concentrations. Vanhove et al. (2011) found that cannabis yields were 1.3 to 3.1 times higher (depending on cultivar) when plants were grown under approximately 1000 μmol·m−2·s−1 compared to approximately 450 μmol·m−2·s−1 during the flowering stage.It was predicted that cannabis yield would exhibit a saturating response to increasing Light intensity, thereby signifying an optimum light intensity range for indoor cannabis production. However, a new research from Morrison (2021), after 81 days‘ experiment, found that When plants grew under LI ranging from 1200 to 1800 μmol·m–2·s–1 provided by light emitting diodes (LEDs), inflorescence yield increased linearly as LI increased up to 1800 μmol·m–2·s–1. "Cannabis will not stop flowering if the lights are turned on for a few minutes once or twice during the 2-month-long flowering cycle. If a light is turned on for 5 to 30 minutes—long enough to disrupt the dark period—on 3 to 5 con­secutive nights, plants will start to revert to vegetative growth." "Less than one half of one foot-candle of light (0.1ppfd) from sunlight will prevent cannabis from flow­ering. That is a little more light than is reflected by a full moon on a clear night. Well-bred indica-dominant plants will revert within three days. Sativa-dominant plants take four to five days to revert to vegetative growth. Once they start to revegetate, it can take from four to six ad­ditional weeks to induce flowering again!" Guess ill find out my answer soon.

28/11/2022 - Inizio della seconda settimana, ho preparato una soluzione abbastanza tenera partendo da una base osmotica, dato circa 0,5l per pianta appena accese le luci. 30/11/2022 - Eseguito topping su tutte le piante, forse un piccolo azzardo sua Cookie Kush che era rimasta un pochino indietro. Vediamo come va! 01/12/2022 - Le piante sembrano aver reagito bene al topping, oggi ho dato un "abbondante" irrigata a tutte le piante, circa 1 litro per vaso e un pò meno nei tre vasi più piccoli.

Song of the week : Joyner Lucas - I Love ------- Day 51 - She is outdoor since day 48 so she will now start to stretch 😀. The structure is nice but I broke the right side apex 2 days ago ( will try to clone it even if the apex is not the best part of the plant for a successful cloning ) , I hope that it will makes the right side more bushy than the left side. No feeding , only water but I will give her some MegaCrop soon. Stay tuned ------- Day 52 - 2L Feeding with Hybrids Powder + Calcium to support the stretch , I pinched the stems and made a clone with a little video to let you see how 😁👍 . Like you can see I did not used MegaCrop and I feed sooner than expected. ****** If you like the song of the week you can now listen to the whole playlist on my YouTube account ( each diary have a dedicate playlist)

starting off week 2 with a res change, had my ppm in the 500 if she struggles ill bring her back down..... roots are coming along nicely was starting to get root rot due too my temps sky rocketing and having too much water in my res.... roots seem to be coming good after lowering water level high ppm seem to be not a problem.. started folding leaves to expose lower nodes.. think i will top at end of week 3

Musste die Lampe ganz an die Decke befestigen. Mal hoffen das Sie nicht mehr wächst. Die PeanutButter ist eine sehr Massieve Pflanze und füllt mein 60X60 zelt komplett aus.
