Veamos, cosas importantes en la semana. 1- Automaticas y sus caprichos. Te dan las indicaciones en los bancos semilleros que del d铆a de germinaci贸n al d铆a de cosecha, es X (pongamos 70 d铆as) y pese a que sea un referente de la duraci贸n del ciclo, las autom谩ticas por su gen茅tica ruderal, hacen la eclosi贸n de floraci贸n y ya he tenido casi todo, empezando por grows que han hecho floraci贸n en el d铆a 30 (en un ciclo previsto de 70) y en los 40 d铆as finales, cosas tan incre铆bles como floraci贸n m铆nima a menos de 4 semanas de la previsi贸n de cosecha y despu茅s, como que, literalmente "explotan" y forman cogollos impresionantes en 20 d铆as. 2- Otras por su parte, son muy lineares en sus procesos y es incluso, como si pese a su gen茅tica ruderal, pudieran tener influencia de exposici贸n 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 d铆as ciertos y despu茅s una floraci贸n que va hasta el final de ciclo con crecimiento muy firme y en linea al tiempo de duraci贸n - los primeros pistilos, despu茅s el desarrollo de pistilos y hojas para estructura de calixes y despu茅s, 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 t贸pico anterior. 3- Tambi茅n ya he tenido alg煤n que otro grow de autom谩tica, que casi no ha tenido expresi贸n vegetativa y despu茅s mientras crec铆a la floraci贸n, se produjo tambi茅n tir贸n vertical, casi como si el ciclo tuviera un vegetativo de principio a fin (y eso sin por ejemplo, agregarle en nutrici贸n de floraci贸n, tan solo un mililitro de nitr贸geno, en periodo supuestamente de floraci贸n). 4 - Conclusiones : Todav铆a para m铆 es complejo, entender la expresi贸n fenot铆pica de las autom谩ticas, pero para m铆 algo se vuelve sencillo de observar y concluir y que es la falta tremenda de estabilidad gen茅tica que muchas de las autom谩ticas (incluso las de los bancos semilleros "estrella" y que se gastan millonadas en marketing de ventas) y eso pasa, por qu茅 las reglas del juego para los bancos de semillas, es poner a cada medio a帽o, fotos para venta de cogollos a quien les llamo "cogollos hamburgueser铆a" pues en las fotos, los comes por colores y la gente tambi茅n y de manera muy atontada se pone en grows de muchas de las autom谩ticas que, hoy d铆a venden lo que considero tasas de THC t贸xicas, - para mi, una cepa con un THC del 16% y un buen entourage con otros canabin贸ides, es mejor y m谩s segura para la salud, que cosas que por ah铆 se "regalan" con tasas de THC muy por encima del 30% y a m铆 siempre me gust贸 que el humo, me sea placentero y que pueda desarrollar actividad, en vez de quedarme tumbado y en paranoia delirante. 4 - En los m谩s t茅cnico...semana de defoliaci贸n y defoliaci贸n muy a crit茅rio pues era muy notorio que por las reducidas dimensiones del 谩rea de los grows autom谩ticos , en las partes inferiores hab铆a una cantidad muy significativa de los que se designan "ramas vampiras" y de hojas fan que en estos momentos no m谩s que eran limitantes a los aportes de ox铆geno/di贸xido carb贸nico y concentraci贸n de humedad en el limite f铆sico del sustrato con la atmosfera. A los que est谩n empezando siempre daros la informaci贸n que solo hay que crear condiciones para que el tercio superior de las ramas pueda al final, convertirse en espacio de floraci贸n. Los tercios inferiores de los grows, deben pues estar limpios de ramas finas que no cogen luz 贸 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 est茅n 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 TAMA脩O (y no confundir defoliaci贸n, con FIMming o con cortes apicales pues las autom谩ticas en regla se resienten tremendamente y pueden incluso "cargarse" con maniobras que impliquen alto estr茅s). 5 - En lo m谩s t茅cnico y por qu茅 no he sido a煤n muy espec铆fico en la forma de nutrici贸n con los nutrientes/aportes de Top Crop: * De lo que pod茅is ver en la nutrici贸n, cada uno de los nutrientes solo se usa una vez a la semana y hago en regla una tabla donde a cada d铆a preparo seg煤n el grow la soluci贸n. As铆 y por ejemplo; Lunes - Agua 1L (agua limpia) Martes - Big One 2ml/L Mi茅rcoles - Top Candy 2ml/L Jueves - 脕gua 1L (agua limpia) Viernes - Top Auto 3,5 ml/L S谩bado -Agua 1L (agua limpia) Domingo - Agua 1L (agua limpia) Lo de Top Crop en linea del control, se basa much铆simo en las tasas de PH y si la recomendaci贸n son tasas del 5,8-6,2, la experiencia me ha ense帽ando que si, esos son los l铆mites en vegetativo...pero en floraci贸n, yo mantengo el limite entre 6,4 -6,7 y para las autom谩ticas, empezar con m谩s de 6,2 y de empiezo de floraci贸n a fin de ciclo, el PH ideal es siempre m谩s de 6,6 y nunca sobrepasando el 6,8. Mucha atenci贸n por qu茅 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 formulaci贸n que permite una absorci贸n del silicio de manera muy efectiva - tres veces en todo el ciclo del Barrier (tambi茅n silicio y aporte de amino谩cidos y quelatos base y muy efectivo para prevenci贸n de estr茅s de todos los tipos y de agresiones de plagas (como siempre preparo suelo con mycorrizas, trichoderma y bacterias de recaptaci贸n atmosf茅rica, 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 m谩s o menos veces. En regla y en lo que llevo de ciclo, tanto en autom谩ticas cuanto fotodependientes, solo he usado un par de veces. El CalMag cuando hagas uso de aguas blandas (con poca o ninguna mineralizaci贸n); cuando trabajes sobre todo con coco o otros sustratos en esta linea y con tendencia a gran porosidad y poca retenci贸n 贸 y ahora os explico el por qu茅 del uso esta semana, pues cuando por ejemplo, se hace una mayor inclusi贸n de tasas de PK (f贸sforo y potasio), el magnesio y c谩lcio del CalMag, mejoran el rendimiento de la "bomba" de captaci贸n del PK y la integraci贸n de la mayor cantidad posible de estos dos, es la diferencia entre cogollos bellos, gordos y resinosos 贸 media docena "vellos" acurrucados. - Hab茅is visto a igual que incluso con los nutrientes de Top Crop y su inductor de floraci贸n que es el Top Bloom, para m铆 hay cosas que no cambi贸 ni lo dejo a segundo plano y el Delta 9 de Cannabiogen es much铆simo m谩s que tan solo un inductor de floraci贸n m谩s. Es un producto de alt铆sima calidad, con una de las m谩s equilibradas composiciones alguna vez pensada y adem谩s una forma perfecta de compensar deficits, pues si formular de amino谩cidos, de az煤cares y de compensaci贸n de macro y micro elementos es inmejorable. A los que hab茅is ya trabajado y lo conoc茅is, sab茅is c贸mo se usa y en floraci贸n plena, nada de da帽o vendr谩, si en un periodo de un mes a cada diez dias por fertirrigaci贸n (en total tres veces) sac谩is de riego con Delta 9, vuestros grows. 6 - A lo largo de la semana : Temp. Maxima (per铆odo luces encendidas) : de 23 a 26潞C Temp. M铆nima (per铆odo luces desconectadas) : de 20 a 22潞C Variaciones Humedad Relativa : entre 68% y 89% Ratio CO2 ambiente : de 406 (min.) a 568 (max.) Y aqu铆 ten茅is lo m谩s 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 recreaci贸n sin amago de ganancias y la Cannabis como producto de sustentabilidad; uso m茅dico y de recreaci贸n y uso positivo. Green Greets a todos los hermanos. Tom

Well I'm a bit upset last week I ended up dropping my ph meter in a tank of nutes I was mixing and by the time I got it out the meter was junk. I was planning on flushing the crystal but had to wait another week for the meter. I suppose the good thing to take from this was I found out why I was having issues with my plants. When the new ph meter came in I went to check my run off and my nutes that I had all ready mixed up. It turns out that my meter i had been using this whole grow was off by about -2-2.5 so this whole time I had been feeding the plants at around 3ph smfh. I cant believe they look how they do knowing what went on this whole time. Fastbuds crystal meth is 3days into flush and i will be cutting it down this weekend most likely. Mephisto hubbabubbasmelloscope is smelling like sweet sweet candy and is thick in resin Bighead seeds freeze berry/ blueberry crumble has a dank pungent stank to it and also is frosty but larrfy Big bomb is still growing thick and have bud sites everywhere Now I'm ready for the next batch and ready to get dialed in!

Week 13 and 3rd week of flower started today 8/29. I did some Schwazzing last night! They were definitely ready!!! And today they are absolutely LOVING their new cut, leaves justa pointing right up 馃槑 Now I just sit back for a bit and watch the progress 馃榿 I have a video on my YT of me doing the Schwazz: https://youtu.be/gV8Ca02IJIY If it doesn't click here with a link you can just copy and paste! Happy growing everyone 鉁岋笍馃崁鉁岋笍 UPDATE: 9/1 Everything is looking good! The ladies are still taking well to the Schwazz and flowers are coming along nicely! Starting to get that beautiful aroma 馃檭 It's hurricane season so we'll have some rain coming up but I'm only 3 weeks in flower so that will be gone come crucial time. Temps outside are starting to go down so it's looking like a nice, gradual transition! You don't want to immediately adjust your temps, rh, etc. You have to ease it all down during early flower 馃槈 That's about it for now, just wanted to share my vibes with yall. It's all about the VIBES 馃槑 Happy growing everyone 鉁岋笍馃崁鉁岋笍

The flowers are starting show a build up of crystals, I鈥檓 shocked at the speed this plant is producing flowers. They are filling up fast from the top down, as you can see still some time to go before all the main flowers are fully developed. The leaves show signs of heat damage and over watering but that鈥檚 ok. The heatwave has passed but it鈥檚 still on the warmer side. The cutting is flowering normally and is receiving light directly so hopefully it will produce a small flower or 2.

Hiiigh friends 馃檶 Welcome to week 8. 馃槏 Due to too much unwanted stress, flowering is delayed. The big lady was unable to withstand the training. Her neck is broken. But she is far from giving up and will fight to the end.. 馃槉 See you next week. 馃憢 Arturo for KannaKullektiv 馃檹

Overall a great strain too grow as grows with ease and seemingly without issues even with minimal care. With care she can produce hefty buds, as kept mine small my flowers reflect but still produced great smelling powerfully buds 馃尡 Cycle finished in time essentially with ease and I'd be happy too recomend this strain from fastbuds. I will update with more images and videos upon timing complete and give dry weight ect, these girls wont bring much but smell absolute treat. Atm I have tried 1 small nug but still not ready not long untill can trim up, great oils and taste just need a little cure up once finished. Tried uploading longer videos but again says error 馃憥 have now added few extra videos

Woche 4 bricht an und es l盲uft hervorragend! Die Orange Sherbet bekommt diese Woche frischen Boden: eine Mischung aus Bio-bizz All-Mix und Greenhouse-Feeding, perfekt f眉r die letzten Vegetationswochen und bl眉te. Zudem hat sich die Orange Sherbet sehr gut mit dem Backhefe-Buttermilch-Melasse-Experiment entwickelt, was zu einem starken CO2-Anstieg auf bis zu 1500 ppm gef眉hrt hat. 馃挩 Ich bin gespannt, wie sie sich in der neuen Umgebung entwickeln wird. Auf der anderen Seite explodieren die Frozen Black Cherries f枚rmlich in der Hydroponik! 馃尡 Die Entwicklung ist beeindruckend, und ich k枚nnte nicht zufriedener sein mit ihrem Fortschritt. Die Bl眉tephase r眉ckt n盲her, und ich bin gespannt, wie sich alles weiterentwickelt! Ich halte euch auf dem Laufenden! 馃殌 Week 4 is here, and things are going great! The Orange Sherbet is getting new soil this week鈥攁 blend of Bio-Beth All-Mix and Greenhouse-Feeding, setting her up perfectly for the final weeks of vegetation and . Additionally, the Orange Sherbet has responded well to the back yeast-buttermilk-molasses experiment, resulting in a significant CO2 increase of up to 1500 ppm. 馃挩 I'm excited to see how she adapts to her new environment. Meanwhile, the Frozen Black Cherries are absolutely thriving in hydro! 馃尡 Their growth has been phenomenal, and I couldn't be more impressed with their progress. The flowering phase is getting closer, and I can't wait to see how everything unfolds! I'll keep you updated! 馃殌

Starting out week 7 the Auto Ultimate is really getting thick, I dont have a lot to compare it to but her buds are so much thicker and harder than the White Monster's The White Monster and Auto Ultimate both showed some problems on some of their leaves, mainly brown spots and yellowing. I checked the run off EC and pH and both seem fine and within range, my led lights were getting a bit close and most of the yellowing is on the areas closest to the light, so for now I assume light burn, I raised the light as high as possible and turned it down juuuuuust a bit. I will keep monitoring the plants as they progress through this week

Healthy and consistent growth. Plant is a little smaller, i think that's due to location in the tent. Buds look good.

Water change day .. Drinking. 2000 ml each per day.. So 6 days on the nute change... ******************* 2 Buckets done .. 5 Left . I may leave the caramel cream autos until tomorrow , they are drinking slightly less per day , but the big girls are drinkers for sure .... So getting better at mixing nutes, bought giant bag of disposable droppers, god damn so much easier for me . I have visual impairment, and shaky hands from the brain tumors. The visual impairment is bad, but the shakes come and go . I normally get a few good rips on the Dr Dabber Switch before i start to help. But the mixing went much better . less mess and i simply pitched the pipette after each use . YEs i know wasteful .... but for me , for now its what i have to do. 1 pipette for each nute for each bucket, they are cheap enough. This way not contaminating anything, and at the amount im mixing, 3 mils - 20 mils each . Biggest problem i have, and i guess maybe not a bad problem ... I have 4 girls on one side of the 4x9 tent, and 3 on the other. The four on the one side are all Glue Gelato Autos and my lord I can not get to the back left side bucket at all with the amount of foliage. So moved a bucket to the other side to allow me to drop in a pail to do a siphon out and refill. See pictures... So I am 10000% upgrading to the 13 gallon x 8 fall ponic system after this grow ..... THANK GOD the caramel cream autos are half the size and 1 of the glue gelatos is slightly smaller on the right to allow me to move around the tent slightly, and im a lean dude.... But i am surprised each day when i check the progress just how far they have come for my first try ... Still have low expectationsfor crops and yields , but am loving the time learning and getting to know hydroponics. I TOTALLY get when the OG growers say just listen to them they will tell you what they need, legit all i have done is feed, maintain enviroment and observe. positive i can not make the same moistakes i made so far net time just by learning my lessons and understanding better the purpose for each Nute and how to spot when the plants are asking for them . Well have atleast 2 more to do tonight most likely will get all the gelato glues done Cheers Check out band i recently turned on to .. Fortunate Youth on Sugar Shack ...

Die Blue Dream hat sich zu einem wahren Monster entwickelt. Der Sativa Einschlag dr眉ckt richtig durch, so langsam h枚rt der Stretch aber auf. Die Bl眉tenans盲tze und Stigman sind richtig dick und breit, was ich zuvor bei noch keiner Sorte so stark wahrgenommen habe. Die Interniodenabst盲nde verk眉rzen sich nach oben nun wieder etwas. Der Geruch ist bisher eher erdig, w眉rzig, hazeig. Ich bin sehr gespannt wie die weitere Entwicklung verl盲uft.

Chance of a Lifetime Greenhouse seeds Wonder Pie Week 4 29th May 2020 Welcome back to my Wonder pie grow. Everything seems to be going steadily ahead, and It looks I have three quite different looking plants growing. Plant #1 is a bit of an ugly duckling with her crumpled looking leaves, she even has a heart shaped leaf at the bottom 馃榿 Plant #2 looks healthy but "Flat" lol like she can't be bothered to lift those leaves up off the ground. And Plant #3 has a taller , more traditional appearence. On Tuesday the 26th I performed the first topping of the three girls. Plant's #1 & #2 were topped after the 5th node whilst plant #3 I topped @ the 5th node which basically means that instead of counting 5 nodes and then topping as I did with the first two I actually removed the 5th node on plant #3 It will be interesting to see any differences in recovery and new growth rates. On Thursday 28th I gave the girls another feed of the GHS Enhancer that came with the Powdered feeding for the Competion. It reccomends using the enhancer every two weeks , which is what I will do. Checked the Ph with my bluelab soil probe and they are all within the 6.4-7 range I aim for when using soil. Interestingly I never observed any mycelium growing on my soils surface as I saw others had when they started but I'm sure that is nothing to worry about. ** Today 29th May** I have noticed the new leaves are coming thru where I topped each plant they all look like they are very healthy and growing nicely . If I had to choose one as the best looking I would pick plant 3 as it seems to look the best to me. Plant 2 is very leafy and has extremely tight internodal spacing which is good 馃憤 And plant 1 is a straight up freak , it's got mutated leaves one of which looks like a heart shape 馃槼 never seen that before 馃槂 Other than the looks , this Wonder pie strain seems to be very happy growing in my soil with the Greenhouse Powdered bio feed and enhancer if they continue to develop at this rate I may be able to flip them to flower a little earlier than anticipated ( at 6 weeks rather than 8) Now a quick breakdown of my management this week Every second day they get 500-700mls of water each Except for thursday 28th when they had Greenhouse Feeding Bio Enhancer @ 1g / L I simply made up a 2L bottle of rainwater with 2 grams of enhancer mixed into it . ( shaken well) I then watered the entire bottle equally between the three plants . Well that's about it for this weeks update , Thankyou for taking the time to read it and I'll be back next week with another 馃憤馃憡

tried grizzlycannabis.co.uk for the first time cracked critical orange punch and planted them i am unsure how this will turn out but lets give it a try!
