Veamos, cosas importantes en la semana. 1- Automaticas y sus caprichos. Te dan las indicaciones en los bancos semilleros que del día de germinación al día de cosecha, es X (pongamos 70 días) y pese a que sea un referente de la duración del ciclo, las automáticas por su genética ruderal, hacen la eclosión de floración y ya he tenido casi todo, empezando por grows que han hecho floración en el día 30 (en un ciclo previsto de 70) y en los 40 días finales, cosas tan increíbles como floración mínima a menos de 4 semanas de la previsión de cosecha y después, como que, literalmente "explotan" y forman cogollos impresionantes en 20 días. 2- Otras por su parte, son muy lineares en sus procesos y es incluso, como si pese a su genética ruderal, pudieran tener influencia de exposición luminosa (lo que no ocurre seguramente) y que pasa por los periodos puedan venir a ocurrir de modo muy seguro - un vegetativo para un ciclo total de 70 dias, por ejemplo, que tiene sus 30 días ciertos y después una floración que va hasta el final de ciclo con crecimiento muy firme y en linea al tiempo de duración - los primeros pistilos, después el desarrollo de pistilos y hojas para estructura de calixes y después, engorda de cogollos con resinas y terpenos- pero todo ocurriendo de modo muy proporcional y sin "tirones" de golpe como os dije por ejemplo, en el tópico anterior. 3- También ya he tenido algún que otro grow de automática, que casi no ha tenido expresión vegetativa y después mientras crecía la floración, se produjo también tirón vertical, casi como si el ciclo tuviera un vegetativo de principio a fin (y eso sin por ejemplo, agregarle en nutrición de floración, tan solo un mililitro de nitrógeno, en periodo supuestamente de floración). 4 - Conclusiones : Todavía para mí es complejo, entender la expresión fenotípica de las automáticas, pero para mí algo se vuelve sencillo de observar y concluir y que es la falta tremenda de estabilidad genética que muchas de las automáticas (incluso las de los bancos semilleros "estrella" y que se gastan millonadas en marketing de ventas) y eso pasa, por qué las reglas del juego para los bancos de semillas, es poner a cada medio año, fotos para venta de cogollos a quien les llamo "cogollos hamburguesería" pues en las fotos, los comes por colores y la gente también y de manera muy atontada se pone en grows de muchas de las automáticas que, hoy día venden lo que considero tasas de THC tóxicas, - para mi, una cepa con un THC del 16% y un buen entourage con otros canabinóides, es mejor y más segura para la salud, que cosas que por ahí se "regalan" con tasas de THC muy por encima del 30% y a mí siempre me gustó que el humo, me sea placentero y que pueda desarrollar actividad, en vez de quedarme tumbado y en paranoia delirante. 4 - En los más técnico...semana de defoliación y defoliación muy a critério pues era muy notorio que por las reducidas dimensiones del área de los grows automáticos , en las partes inferiores había una cantidad muy significativa de los que se designan "ramas vampiras" y de hojas fan que en estos momentos no más que eran limitantes a los aportes de oxígeno/dióxido carbónico y concentración de humedad en el limite físico del sustrato con la atmosfera. A los que están empezando siempre daros la información que solo hay que crear condiciones para que el tercio superior de las ramas pueda al final, convertirse en espacio de floración. Los tercios inferiores de los grows, deben pues estar limpios de ramas finas que no cogen luz ó hojas fan que por el mismo motivo solamente estorban y tienen implicaciones muy serias, en lo tocante a productividad final. Por lo cual, las "vampiras" hay que removerlas cuando las ramas donde estén insertas ya tengan grosor y resistencia para que las "vampiras" sean arrancadas sin por ejemplo haber secado de la rama. ESTE PROCEDIMIENTO EN INDOOR - RETIRADA DE RAMAS "VAMPIRAS" Y HOJAS FAN EN LIMITE BAJO DEL GROW- ES OBLIGATORIA CARA A OBTENER COGOLLOS DE GRAN CALIDAD Y TAMAÑO (y no confundir defoliación, con FIMming o con cortes apicales pues las automáticas en regla se resienten tremendamente y pueden incluso "cargarse" con maniobras que impliquen alto estrés). 5 - En lo más técnico y por qué no he sido aún muy específico en la forma de nutrición con los nutrientes/aportes de Top Crop: * De lo que podéis ver en la nutrición, cada uno de los nutrientes solo se usa una vez a la semana y hago en regla una tabla donde a cada día preparo según el grow la solución. Así y por ejemplo; Lunes - Agua 1L (agua limpia) Martes - Big One 2ml/L Miércoles - Top Candy 2ml/L Jueves - Água 1L (agua limpia) Viernes - Top Auto 3,5 ml/L Sábado -Agua 1L (agua limpia) Domingo - Agua 1L (agua limpia) Lo de Top Crop en linea del control, se basa muchísimo en las tasas de PH y si la recomendación son tasas del 5,8-6,2, la experiencia me ha enseñando que si, esos son los límites en vegetativo...pero en floración, yo mantengo el limite entre 6,4 -6,7 y para las automáticas, empezar con más de 6,2 y de empiezo de floración a fin de ciclo, el PH ideal es siempre más de 6,6 y nunca sobrepasando el 6,8. Mucha atención por qué cuando toque a darle: - cuatro veces en el total de ciclo de grow, el maravilloso Top Mass, por ser uno de los mejores aportes de silicio en el mercado y por su formulación que permite una absorción del silicio de manera muy efectiva - tres veces en todo el ciclo del Barrier (también silicio y aporte de aminoácidos y quelatos base y muy efectivo para prevención de estrés de todos los tipos y de agresiones de plagas (como siempre preparo suelo con mycorrizas, trichoderma y bacterias de recaptación atmosférica, no tengo memoria de alguna plaga que pueda haber tenido, desde que las mycorrizas y la trichoderma son puestos en el sustrato) - el CalMag, que por ele tipo de agua se incluye más o menos veces. En regla y en lo que llevo de ciclo, tanto en automáticas cuanto fotodependientes, solo he usado un par de veces. El CalMag cuando hagas uso de aguas blandas (con poca o ninguna mineralización); cuando trabajes sobre todo con coco o otros sustratos en esta linea y con tendencia a gran porosidad y poca retención ó y ahora os explico el por qué del uso esta semana, pues cuando por ejemplo, se hace una mayor inclusión de tasas de PK (fósforo y potasio), el magnesio y cálcio del CalMag, mejoran el rendimiento de la "bomba" de captación del PK y la integración de la mayor cantidad posible de estos dos, es la diferencia entre cogollos bellos, gordos y resinosos ó media docena "vellos" acurrucados. - Habéis visto a igual que incluso con los nutrientes de Top Crop y su inductor de floración que es el Top Bloom, para mí hay cosas que no cambió ni lo dejo a segundo plano y el Delta 9 de Cannabiogen es muchísimo más que tan solo un inductor de floración más. Es un producto de altísima calidad, con una de las más equilibradas composiciones alguna vez pensada y además una forma perfecta de compensar deficits, pues si formular de aminoácidos, de azúcares y de compensación de macro y micro elementos es inmejorable. A los que habéis ya trabajado y lo conocéis, sabéis cómo se usa y en floración plena, nada de daño vendrá, si en un periodo de un mes a cada diez dias por fertirrigación (en total tres veces) sacáis de riego con Delta 9, vuestros grows. 6 - A lo largo de la semana : Temp. Maxima (período luces encendidas) : de 23 a 26ºC Temp. Mínima (período luces desconectadas) : de 20 a 22ºC Variaciones Humedad Relativa : entre 68% y 89% Ratio CO2 ambiente : de 406 (min.) a 568 (max.) Y aquí tenéis lo más destacado de la semana...que el Dios Jah nos proteja siempre de todos los peligros -en grow y fuera de el- 420 siempre y por el derecho al cultivo de recreación sin amago de ganancias y la Cannabis como producto de sustentabilidad; uso médico y de recreación y uso positivo. Green Greets a todos los hermanos. Tom

Hello friends here we are in week seven of flower. Sorry there was no daily time lapse or pics went out on vacation. So today Day 105 12/24/2021 marks the end of the week, She is coming along nicely and the smell is just WOW. She should be ready to start flush after next week. I checked the Trichomes and mostly all cloudy few clear and few amber. Also got a new tent last night that will be setting up for next year grow.

Dear diary, Week 4 almost done, but posting a day in advance as I will need help from the community! Something terrible has happened, and I am not sure what, so let’s jump into it. 🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀 ⏰ Day 25: Away from home so the flatmate is feeding them from the premixed bucket. ⏰ Day 26: Back home! As they have doubled in size I am transplanting up from 3liter to 20liter airpots. The 75/25 coco to perlite mix was first run with 1.23ms 5.8ph calmag water followed by 1.33ms 5.8ph nutes before transplanting over. Light was about 305 so also upped it to 320-330ppfd. G.C #2 still is showing the weird marks and deformation, but she is growing quickly so having real issues figuring out if its something else than some genetic oddity. ⏰ Day 27: Feed the girls at 1.36ms and 6.0ph. Today was also the day where the mainlining begins! This was done by topping above the 3rd node, removing any growth below the 3rd and tying them down to start the manfold. Aiming for 8 or 16 tops for each plant depending on how the grow. ⏰ Day 28: Feeding at 1.36ms 5.8ph and adjusted ties. ⏰ Day 29: Checked in on them in the morning before lights off, and something is very wrong. All the older leaves show all kinds of issues like curling, brown and yellow spots, drooping etc. Might just be from the chock of mainlining and the lights being to strong so lowered them to 230ppfd. Later when lights turned on again, their state has not deteriorated during light off, so I’m fairly sure it is light related. But to be sure I also gave the girls 2 liter each of feed to make sure there are no dryspots, 1.36ms 6.0ph. ⏰ Day 30: I was away all day so they were watered by flatmate with 1.35ms 6ph. When I came home later in the night the spots and yellowing is still happening on the older leaves but much slower than before. I also checked runoff and it’s fine at 1.46ms and 6.0ph. ⏰ Day 30: Gave a feeding of 1.46ms 6.3ph in were I increased A and B nutes to 2.5ml/l from 2.0 and calmag to 1.5ml/l from 1.3. Someone suggested that it might be magnesium deficiency so that is why I changed the ratios and increased the EC a bit. Lastly I also gave a foliar spray of calmag water at like 12ml/l at 6.3ph to see if that helps so we can head into a smoother week 5!

Another week has come and gone and we are off to the races. this will be the last big feeding. I wanted to give them a PK boost in mid flower and to make sure they have enough food to last them till the end of the cycle. the beans look like they took hold I will know more in about 3 weeks. If any at all got the girl dust on them for sure. The clones are fattening up, not to be prize winning buds but good enough for a squish in the rosin press. I am seeing some signs of light burn and a little nutrient burn but nothing a good flush won't cure. They are starting to get more frosty and the smell is getting more pronounced. very complex sweet gas fruit is the best way to describe it. well that's it for now be well all and don't for get to vote.

2/1 - 2/4: I ended up feeding the BJ's and GG's once more, and just plain water for the Zenzations. Moved the to Zenzations into the dark on the night of 2/4 and will harvest them tomorrow (Friday). I'll flush the others tomorrow and probably harvest them next weekend. 2/5: Both Zenzations are having their last bit of beauty sleep before they get trimmed up, cut, washed, and hung to dry. 2/6: Harvested both Zenzations....damn they smell wonderful and have amazing frost! 2/8: Watered the BJ's and GG's today with LiquidSoil. Will flush them really well in a couple more days and probably harvest this weekend...time's up bitches, better put on your lipstick and get ready for the big party!

Very happy so far. Been growing nicely. Topped mid week and will be adding in some tie down spots in the coming week for some LST. Daily checks for PH keeping it just about at 5.7 the entire week.

LSD journey September 15, 2021 day 3 first day of vegetation temperature 27c light schedule is 18 hours of light. I moved my grow light up 16 inches from the pot. September 17, 2021 Day 3 of vegetation Temperature 28.5 I took the plant pot out of the clay pebbles and put it on the top so that it can still get water but I’m not over watering it. 🙏

ok so everything has gone fantastic , no nutrient burns at all , and have been slowly creeping up the base nutrients , i have stopped the cal mag and now adding house and gardens bud XL at full strength these girls are now in full swing of flower the Cal mag has made absolutely no difference too the yellow colour of this blackberry so I suspect it is just how this strain is as meany diary's on here of the same strain are also on the yellow side , but it's certainly not affecting the speed of the growth of her , i also bought a new ph stick this week , i have found when PHing the feed bucket that its best too have air stones in the bucket , add all nuts and then ph but do not use the feed that day as if you check the next day the ph is off again so i left it 24 hours after i add more ph down , and it seems too make the measurements alot easier and stable , i have bent down the main stems " without damaging them onto my netting too A keep the canopy all the same high so my lighting is covering all plants at the same distance and also it allowed the side stems too reach up too , i also was sponsored another new led light by kingbo this week so have added another 600watt led too the grow , so now have two 600's and one 900watt , and temps are still fine sitting at 24c lights on and 19-20 off , so am pleased with that , I accidentally bend the main stem last week while I was putting them under the netting too try and control the stretch , luckily it did not crack or snap the branch at all and she didn't droop on that branch at all and has healed already , it may or may not be related but as soon as it happened the side branches thickened up too the thickness of the main stem , this plant has over taken the rest in size even being a full week too 15 days younger , it's certainly not ideal but it really does not appear too have slowed down the growth and may well go in my favour , this lady really did stretch out from week 4 into 5 and is showing no sign of slowing down , her side branches are very thick almost as thick as the main stem , her leaf production was minimal and I have only had too remove very few too expose the bud sites , the yellowing seems too be recovering now and most of the plant is green now , Update , Now gone a lush green colour instead of that horrible yellow , and the buds have already started too purple , she has also stepped up a gear with her nutrient intake almost drinking 6 pints since Thursday , She seems too have slowed down on the stretch and has so meany bud site scattered all over her with as the diary name suggests black roses everywhere , and note too any seed banks reading this if there is not a purple stain out there already called black rose now is your chance lol and Iwant a sample pack first kinda like the tester :) Now defoliation , as you can see they really didn't seem too mind at all being stripped and within a couple of days they had all replenished the lost leaves and even this week olive had to pull the odd few off as they have grown out , Method , well all info now is simple , Anything I cannot tuck under something that is blocking a bid site with shade I remove too middle or bottom , Everything else stays , I just stand above the plant and pull off anything covering the sites , it's really as simple as that , I see some strip them until there is nothing left on but a few sugar leaves , but for me didn't like the look of the plants , for me the growing process is just as much fun as the fruits ,

Day 30 Flower and It looks like my humidity problem is coming to an end 😅 the second unit outside the tent is finally showing some results, I’ve also change my air circulation , i fixed al off them in a way that it creates a wind vortex, i think this is helping with the humidity also. I will post a litle video showing my air set up 😇 As for the rest all is going as normal, today mb tomorrow’s day for new defoliation, apart from that just giving them all my love and care ❤️ Day 31 F defoliation day Day 33 and still in love with my girls 5x White Mango WM 5x Alasken Purple AP 4x Blueberry BB 3x SAD S1 2x Badazz Cookies BC 19 in total for a 4x8x6 - 1,2x2,4x2 Light Lumatek Zeus 465W compact pro 2x at 100% All i Grow is medicine for myself, Stay safe, stay tuned and B Happy and do it for the love Peace ✌️ D

Week 2 into these babies, as you can see the seedlings had a bit of a struggle, however they are bouncing back real quick, iv been foliar feeding with a solution of 100ppm and they are eating up all they need, watch this space!
