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

Eccoci qui... Che splendore questa genetica, NON SEBRA MARIJUANA!!! - Strain 1: Ha una conformazione più simile alle normali piante ma ha le prendi sole e tutte le foglie della pianta con le mini foglie che si sovrappongono e sta iniziando a formare le cime come GIOIELLI davvero mi piace molto, tralasciando il fatto che è PIENA di RESINA!!!!! - Strain 2: Lei ha una conformazione molto strana purtroppo avendo avanti a lei nel box la Alladdin Kush ha allargato il ramo a destra allungando e modificando la forma che aveva, lei è molto imboscabile ovunque inquanto NON sembra marijuana. Nella fioritura è più indietro rispetto Strain 1 ma non importa la resa essendo così particolare vince in partenza!!!! Questa settimana inizieremo con i nutrienti che finora NON sono stati utilizzati... Grazie a @Khalifa_Genetics per la collab e a tutti per il supporto🔥🌲❤️

Hello again and welcome to week 5, the beginning of true flower! Ahsoka (her star wars name) is doing awesome with LST. Last week we tied down her main cola but this week her branches were long enough to Tie most of them down to. I will leaf tuck everyday to keep light on the budsites. Ashoka has finally hardened off properly and I moved her to the big tent since she is also in flower. She is under The Optic 8+ we still haven't had to feed any nutrients yet 🤞 but are giving real growers recharge as a microbial. As you can see her roots have just exploded with growth. Love this opaque container deal! The Optic 8+ is turned up full blast as well since we hardened her off by gradually bringing her into the tent Stats: Ohahu(not reccomended)4x4 tent 1gal water pitcher Fox farms happy frog soil Optic 8+ LED Durabreeze carbon filter 4" inline fan

Struggling with temps this week, heat wave in uk and tent getting up to 32c during the day. Bought a dehumidifier for the final few weeks of flowering so hopefully can get it down to at least 40% and should cool down this week. Suffering from nite burn on the gorilla glue, think it maybe due to plant taking in nutrients too fast due to the heat so have scaled down for now. Having said all this still really happy with how my first grow is going and now can’t wait to see the final outcome! Happy growing!

10/28 - Pushing this update three days early since much has changed. Did a solution change earlier today to the new mix (as noted) which settled in about 740ppm (570ppm nutrients, 1.14ec + tap). After approximately eight hours (including a dark cycle), she registered 720ppm, but we will see how she swings over the next few days. The other lady in the video was given the same nutrient solution at the same time and is now showing some dark buildup on her roots that this Amnesia XXL Auto doesn't have. Her growth has been fantastic so far and she is responding well to the nutrients. I am excited to see how this goes considering this is my first DWC run and first run with Dyna Gro. Any comments, questions, observations, or concerns are always welcome. Happy Growing! Edit: 10/29 - Added 2ml/gal Botanicare Hydroguard as a preventative for any potential root issues. Edit: 10/31 - Removed two large fan leaves that were actively shading new growth nodes. PPMs have slowly climbed up to 750. Lowered to 700 with pH'ed water. Added second Mars Hydro SP150 and raised to 18" above canopy.

Week 5: Transplant Time & Root Power! Oh man, this was one of those weeks! We transplanted all five phenos into bigger pots, and let me tell you, they’re thriving! (Check out the complete video episode for all the details 😉). The girls are looking amazing, all pretty much the same size for now, so I don’t have any favorites yet—but let’s see what the future holds! For photos, I used both my Nikon P900 and Sony A6000, with a bunch of lenses and filters to preserve the true colors—these LEDs are powerful! Current Setup & Conditions This week, they’re still chilling with their sisters in the big tent, but in about a week, they’ll be moving into the TrolMaster ecosystem for even better environmental control. Watering: pH 6.06, EC 0.96 Temperature: A bit cold , but it is what it is. We’re facing some freezing outdoor temps (as shown last week in the frosty veggie garden pics!), yet these Runtz are holding strong like true champions. 💪❄️ Nutrition: Still on the Aptus Clean Program, with: Regulator System Clean RO Water Conditioner All-in-One Liquid Root Development: The Real MVP! Let’s go deep on roots! The mycorrhizae in the Pro-Mix soil has been working its magic, and I’m still boosting them further with a touch of Aptus Holland Mycor Mix. The root development on this transplant was insane—super white, healthy, and ready to explode with growth. What Are Mycorrhizae? The word “mycorrhiza” comes from Greek: • Myco- meaning fungus • Rhiza- meaning root Mycorrhizae are a type of beneficial fungi that form a symbiotic (mutually beneficial) relationship with plant roots. These fungi extend far beyond the root zone, creating an underground network that helps plants absorb water, nutrients, and improve overall health. This is not a single species but rather a whole category of fungi, mainly divided into: 1. Ectomycorrhizae – Live on the outside of plant roots, forming a sheath around them. Common in trees like pines and oaks. 2. Endomycorrhizae (Arbuscular Mycorrhizae, AMF) – The most beneficial for most crops and cannabis. These penetrate root cells, forming structures inside the roots that exchange nutrients. Where Are Mycorrhizae Found in Nature? Mycorrhizae naturally occur in forests, grasslands, and undisturbed soils worldwide. They play a crucial role in maintaining ecosystem balance by helping plants access nutrients from the soil. In a natural environment, plants are constantly forming relationships with these fungi. However, in modern agriculture, excessive tilling, chemical fertilizers, and fungicides have reduced their populations, making supplementation necessary in many cases. How Do Mycorrhizae Work? Once mycorrhizae colonize a plant’s roots, they start forming an underground fungal network called the mycelium. This network extends the plant’s reach into the soil, acting as a second root system. Benefits of Mycorrhizae: ✅ Enhanced Nutrient Uptake – Mycorrhizae help plants absorb phosphorus, nitrogen, and micronutrients that would otherwise be unavailable. ✅ Improved Water Absorption – The fungal network can reach deeper into the soil than roots alone, helping plants survive drought conditions. ✅ Stronger, Healthier Roots – They promote thicker, more robust root systems, reducing transplant shock. ✅ Better Soil Structure – They produce glomalin, a protein that improves soil aggregation and helps retain moisture. ✅ Natural Pest & Disease Resistance – Healthy plants with strong mycorrhizal relationships tend to be more resistant to soil-borne pathogens. How Mycorrhizae Help in Cannabis & Gardening In controlled growing environments, using mycorrhizae is a game-changer. Since cannabis relies heavily on phosphorus, the enhanced nutrient uptake provided by mycorrhizae is especially beneficial. Best ways to apply mycorrhizae: • At transplant – Dust roots with mycorrhizae powder or mix into soil. • As a soil drench – Some liquid formulations allow fungi to colonize even after planting. • Mix into your growing medium – Using pre-amended soil like Pro-Mix HP Mycorrhizae ensures roots have early access. Pro Tip: Mycorrhizae need living roots to survive! Avoid using synthetic fungicides or excessive chemical fertilizers, as they can kill the fungi. Think of mycorrhizae as a natural root booster. They’ve been around for hundreds of millions of years, helping plants thrive in all conditions. By using them in cultivation, you’re mimicking nature, ensuring your plants grow stronger, healthier, and more resilient. When used correctly, mycorrhizae can increase yields, improve plant health, and reduce the need for synthetic inputs—making them a must-have for any serious grower! Can’t wait to see how they’ll look in the next transplant! I made a few changes to my improvised photo studio, including a pink background for now—because why not? Let’s keep things fun and full of color! 🌸📸 Massive gratitude to all our sponsors and of course, a special shoutout to Zamnesia, Plagron, and Grow Diaries for making this amazing cup happen. 🙌 And to the community—followers, supporters, lovers, haters—I love you all! ❤️ Let’s keep pushing forward, learning, and making this grow legendary! Stay Tuned for More! Next week, i may be moving them into bigger pots and getting them into their final environment. You won’t want to miss this next stage! See you all next week—stay tuned, keep growing, good luck to all and let’s make history together! 🚀🌱 Genetics - Runtz https://www.zamnesia.com/6000-zamnesia-seeds-runtz-feminized.html Nutrients - Plagron https://plagron.com/en/hobby - Aptus Holland https://aptus-holland.com/ Controls - Trol MAster https://www.trolmaster.eu/ LED - https://www.futureofgrow.com/en LED - https://www.thinkgrowled.com Soil - https://www.promixgardening.com/en Germination - Cannakan https://cannakan.com/?srsltid=AfmBOopXr-inLXajXu3QFgKXCXXos4F1oEvScjMKIB5MR5dk8-GJ-F49 DOGDOCTOR 15% off Smoking Papers - https://ziggioriginal.com/ Terpene saver - https://grovebags.com/ As always thank you all for stopping by, for the love and for it all , this journey of mine wold just not be the same without you guys, the love and support is very much appreciloved and i fell honored with you all in my life With true love comes happiness Always believe in your self and always do things expecting nothing and with an open heart , be a giver and the universe will give back to you in ways you could not even imagine so As always, this is shared for educational purposes, aiming to spread understanding and appreciation for this plant.
