This week has gone well, had a bunch of stuff typed out and closed my browser by mistake and now this is #2 attempt to post this week. Easy week for the plants, they have being growing well and I am impressed by the size of them. I added in some potassium silicate to introduce some Si into this grow. I decided to top them as they where starting to grow their 4th node, snipped that tip off and we're golden. They are kinda smelly if you rub them and that's fun too, Some of the hot peppers have also popped up and started growing. I still don't have anything on the Naga Morich pepper that I am hoping for. I have a feeling that as the seeds I got from these peppers where from a dehydrated pepper, they might be duds nuked from the dry heat of the dehydrator. I do have 4 vials of hot pepper seeds where the label has fallen off, I found the labels but no idea what one goes on what bottle. One out of the four bottles is Naga Morich, Having some none dehydrated seeds in my possession is one step closer to getting more of this hottie. I also found a fly out of no where, Its little wing is damaged and it more or less hops and glides unsuccessfully vs fly's but I took some videos of it. I also seen a few fungus gnats, little fuckers where not in my apartment before I am convinced their eggs survive in the stuff I buy then come out of it. Kinda annoying. PLUS I borrowed a light meter from my hydro shop, I was expecting it to be a LUX meter and that I would have to do a bunch of conversions but it was not, it was a legit Quantum Par Sensor, detecting in PPF "Photosynthetic Photon Flux" or umols/s, with these readings I can calculate my PPFD "PPF+Density" I have mapped out my tents floor into a colour coded grid of dots and mapped out the PPF at varying heights and dims. However I did not do it right and need to redo this. But once this is done I will have a functioning PPFD map with relation to my tent. This will help me tone in DLI and get it aorund a solid 35-40. Will be gearing up for a transplant next week. I try and post on Fridays but don't always get around to it. I take the pics on that date though and then try and remember what I was going to write about that week. PS Gorilla Tent Accessory's suck shit. The SCROG nets pic has the gorilla 2x4 SCROG net "black" and the Secret Jardin 2x4 SCROG net "white" beside it. massive difference in quality and size. I should have known when they state on the label its for 2x2 or 2x4, that's not even possible. Also tried out the nutrient line that's part of the gorilla tent company, Lotus, I ran it one year and it was just trash, did not work, had issues since first week and they would not correct. Buddy reached out to me and said same thing happened to him and he disliked the brand. Big shoutout to Medic Grow for sponsoring the lighting in my tent, They have provided me with 2x Mini Sun 2's in the 240w configuration, They use the v1 growing spectrum that is a all purpose seed to harvest spectrum so their is no hassle of switching it mid grow.

Green Gelato was chopped on day 75, this pheno has a strong aroma of sunset sherbet which is divine to the nose. Dense boulders from top to bottom of the stems. So far I’m happy with the gelato, she will get a dry and a really slow cure finished with a boveda humidity pack at 62%. Looking forward to the finished product. Harvest report will be written on the next update. Thanks for following along people

Pure Ice cream is growing great under the Spider Farmer G5000/UVR40 lights, in the Athena blended line nutrition. I think she started to get light stress or burn. So I kinda adjusted her to not be right under it so close. She has a sweet creamy smell. Cokas are looking good, and frosty. Just waiting on her to bulk more.

This week was absolutely torturous had an accident in which one of my plants was damaged fortunately I do not believe that all is lost I will just have to hold her back on sending her into flour with the rest until she is completely healthy I have sent one into flower a bit early just to see if I could and seems to be working swimmingly

Welcome to my Dark Phoenix diary by Greenhouse seed co. Plant looks good, drinks a lot and grows good, buds are setting now and growing towards golfball size... Cant wait to see coming weeks development... Growing with MarsHydro sp3000 60% SATIVA - 40% INDICA THC: 20-25% CBG: 0,5-1% CBD: 0% GENETICS Trainwreck x Jack Herer EFFECTS The effects are a balance of the relaxing body effect from the Trainwreck that can ease some medicinal user, with the uplifting effect from the Jack Herer that will keep your head clear and creative. A good day smoke to keep working. INDOOR Flowering Cycle: 56 - 70 days Yield: Medium - High OUTDOOR Harvest: mid-end October Average Height: 170 - 200 cm Yield: 700g/plant PRODUCT INFO The Dark Phoenix is a cross of the famous California cut Trainwreck that has been a reference during many years for medicinal use for insomnia, pain, lack of apetites, mixed with the equally famous and mythical, Jack Herer. By crossing the Trainwreck with the Jack Herer we wanted to bring the compactness and amazing foxtailing to the Jack’s smell and amazing production. The plant grows relatively tall but still moderate for an indoor grow, maybe with the use of topping for the lower spaces, the stretch of the Dark Phoenix is very vigorous during the first weeks of flowering and will produce some strong branches that will catch up on the sides to form on a nice crown effect. The flowers are as vigorous as the stretch, forming some beautiful and big preflowers early in the flowering, then they will connect together to form some long colas and explode in a beautiful sativa foxtailing bouquet with a very decent yeild and colors that can turn from blue to deep dark black leaves on some plants, a beautiful expression of colors. The smell of the Dark Phoenix is a must-smell for any sativa lover, the complex mix of flavors of the Jack going from the piney, earthy, and hazy, combined with the pungent smell of the Trainwreck bring some lemony and spiciness to the sativa mix. A great combination for a real explosion of flavors in mouth.

Much more leaves appear on her body compared to the last week. All the leaves look green, healthy, and much larger. My only concern is that her stem does not get any thicker or longer these days. I try to feed some nutrients with their density far smaller than what is written on the instruction paper. Now I attach a small camera on my pot and record her growth. Her leaves look full of energy from morning to evening, whereas they look losing strength at night. It could be nature, according to my cannabis-grower friend, so I try to prevent from interfering too much. It would be problematic, however, if it has a correlation with her thin and short stem. I would like your comment on this. Your support will enlighten me, as the LED does onto the plant. "Light, my light, the world-filling light, the eye-kissing light, heart-sweetening light!" In the city of New Leningrad, 2021-02-01. I append an mp4 video to the diary. 2021-02-02.

Stretch 10 centimètres Jour52 légère defolliation et arrosage avec deux litres d'eau ph6.3 Petit rappel sur le meilleur cycle de lumière pour les autofloraisons QUEL EST LE PLANNING LUMINEUX OPTIMAL ? Le cannabis à autofloraison peut survivre avec à peine 5 heures de lumière du soleil par jour. Mais si vous voulez que vos plants s’épanouissent, atteignent le pic de leur puissance et produisent une lourde récolte, ils ont besoin d’au moins 18 heures de lumière par jour. Le planning optimal de lumière pour la culture en intérieur du cannabis à autofloraison est un 20-4 constant pendant tout le cycle de vie. Bien entendu, des plannings de 18-6, 20-2 et 24 heures non-stop ont tous leurs avantages, mais nous avons obtenu les meilleurs résultats avec le planning 20-4. Les cultivateurs en extérieur peuvent potentiellement lancer la culture dès le printemps. Cependant, nous recommandons toujours de faire germer les graines et de cultiver les jeunes pousses en intérieur sous des lampes artificielles pendant une semaine ou deux pour obtenir les meilleurs résultats. Nous parlerons des options en extérieur plus en détail un peu plus bas. LE CYCLE DE VIE DU CANNABIS À AUTOFLORAISON La plus grande différence entre le cannabis à photopériode et à autofloraison est que l’horloge tourne pour une auto dès le moment où la coque de la graine s’ouvre. Le cycle de vie post-germination de la grande majorité des variétés à autofloraison modernes est de 8-12 semaines au total. Au contraire des variétés à photopériode, les autos n’ont pas besoin du planning lumineux courant 12-12 pour faire la transition vers la floraison. Une variété à autofloraison progressera dans son cycle de vie indifféremment du cycle jour-nuit. CROISSANCE VÉGÉTATIVE ACCÉLÉRÉE Il est presque impossible de délimiter la phase de la jeune pousse de la croissance végétale avec les variétés à autofloraison de nos jours. De plus, en 30 jours, la plupart exploseront soudainement en phase de floraison. Donner aux autos un bon départ, solide et sain est un facteur critique pour une culture réussie. Beaucoup de choses peuvent se passer pendant une semaine avec un hybride à autofloraison vigoureux en culture. Il n’y a pas non plus beaucoup de temps pour la transplantation. Nous recommandons d’utiliser notre kit de germination ou de planter directement dans les premiers et derniers récipients dès le début. Des pots/récipients en plastique de 10-20 L avec de nombreux trous de drainage au fond sont parfaits. Les Air-Pots sont encore mieux. Beaucoup de cultivateur découvrent à leurs dépens que les petits pots ne sont pas durables pour les hybrides autos modernes plus grands. Préparez-vous à devoir ajuster quotidiennement votre lampe de culture pour éviter de brûler le feuillage. De plus, tout comme les variétés à photopériode, les conditions environnementales optimales pour les jeunes plants à autofloraison sont des températures entre 20 et 25 °C et une HR dans une fourchette de 50-70 %. En outre, les besoins en nutriments seront considérablement plus faibles que les variétés à photopériode. Il n’y a donc aucune bonne raison de ne pas cultiver bio. Généralement, les autos préfèrent avoir un milieu de culture légèrement fertilisé et bien aéré. Les terreaux légers et/ou le coco sont des substrats fortement recommandés. La plupart des cultivateurs préfèrent des lampes CFL blanc chaud, LED et MH pour la courte période végétative. Cependant, les lampes HPS à double spectre sont tout aussi efficaces et probablement plus pratiques à utiliser. FLORAISON RAPIDE ET FÉROCE Dès que vous pouvez voir les pistils pousser à partir des premières fleurs, vous pouvez vous dire qu’en 45-60 jours, les plants finiront le cycle de floraison et seront prêts à la récolte. Que vous soyez prêt ou non. Mais vous serez prêt, car vous aurez fait les ajustements nécessaires en temps et en heure. Les apports en engrais de croissance végétative à un dosage faible à moyen seront remplacés par des nutriments pour la floraison et des doses appropriés de compléments et boosters de floraison. Une fois de plus, un régime alimentaire spartiate est recommandé. Pas besoin de changer le planning des lampes, car vous allez suivre votre planning originel jusqu’à la récolte. Mais il faudra vous assurer que les températures ne dépassent pas les 28 °C et vous devez réduire votre HR vers une fourchette plus basse de 40-60 %. Les plants vont s’étirer à des degrés divers. Quoi qu’il en soit, vous devez faire attention et toujours maintenir une distance optimale entre la lampe et la canopée. Un ensemble de cordages ou de crochets réglables rendront la tâche bien plus aisée. Ne vous imaginez pas que toutes les autos développeront une structure courte de buisson, à moins que le sélectionneur ne donne des données qui le suggèrent. Naturellement, les deux dernières semaines de floraison devraient être réservées à un rinçage en profondeur du milieu. De l’eau pure, ou une solution de rinçage légère fonctionneront très bien. Quand la majorité des poils ou pistils sur les fleurs auront changé du blanc à l’orange/rouge, vous devriez passer au rinçage. Ne sautez pas cette étape finale critique. Vous méritez les fleurs les plus savoureuses, sans contamination. COMMENT LES AUTOS RÉPONDRONT AUX TECHNIQUES DE TAILLE ET DE PALISSAGE ? La réponse courte : très bien ! La plupart des variétés à autofloraison de nouvelle génération répondront très positivement au LST. Et tant que vous taillez tôt, l’étêtage et le fimming peuvent multiplier les tiges de têtes et en plus booster les rendements. De plus, la méthode ScrOG peut être combinée avec toutes ces techniques pour un rendement maximum. Cependant, la culture à grand volume utilisant la méthode SOG est probablement le style de culture le plus populaire à présent. Un nombre croissant de cultivateurs d’autos expérimentent avec les mêmes pratiques courantes de taille et de palissage à haut rendement que les cultivateurs de cannabis à photopériode utilisent. Les cultivateurs débutants ne devraient probablement pas se lancer dans une taille ou un palissage intensif ou excessif avant d’avoir de l’expérience. Cependant, plier un peu les pointes de croissance pour créer une canopée plus plate ne peut pas nuire aux rendements. De même, une défoliation minimale pour augmenter la pénétration lumineuse ne stressera probablement pas des plants en bonne santé, tant que vous vous limitez à l’élimination des grosses feuilles nourricières qui font de l’ombre aux sites de floraison. May the force be with you 💪

Day 8 - First official day of veg and both ladies are looking good and on schedule for a couple of changes. Nutrients: 10ml of Hydro A & Hydro B were added to both buckets (10L of water in each bucket) PH: the Milwaukee PH controller was set to work - starting at a PH of around 7.6 - 7.8, it slowly worked down to a perfect 6.0 over about 50minutes. Lights: The lights were readjusted to be 60cm from the seedlings who are all between 8-10cm tall and the intensity of the lights were increased to about 70% brightness. Day 9 - Both plants are taking nicely to the adjustments and I am happy with the progress. Temp and humidity are stable and PH is controlled. Day 11 - The second nodes are clearly visible today for both Chong and Max which would hopefully put them at 3 nodes by the end of the week - right on schedule! Day 13 - The ladies seem to be showing some signs of heat stress, so thinking about adjusting the lights after their period of dark today because they are due to be adjusted tomorrow anyway for the new week of veg

77 Days have passed. Heatwave in my country, so im just relaxing and enjoying life. - I hope you do too! Did a heavy defoliation, gonna be making some nutritious fruit smoothies with that. - 2 week ish before i switch to flower. ---1st time growing with FLO - Florian Living Organics.--- They claim that there is no need to pH when watering and that their living fertilizer is the only thing that i will need throughout the whole grow so i only need to mix with soil and just water with plain water. If this stuff works then it can simplify my future grows ALOT! Happy growing. 😎

Schwächelt leider ein wenig aber ich hoffe das die sich noch gut erholt. Ursache ist mir noch unklar aber es hat erst angefangen als ich sie in den Boden gepflanzt habe.
