Welcome to my Black Jack b sponsored by Sweet Seeds 2 yrs ago nearly. Veg Weeks & Pre/Post Pre Flower Weeks 7-9 She was really healthy during her entire veg period. Moving into pre flower she didn't do any excess stretching. Plant was doing very well moving into pre flower it took a good few weeks for her to flip but it was building up a good base up and down the nodes. I used plagron right through half of flowering possibly more. For the last 4 weeks I moved all my plants to Xpert Nutrients. MAINTENANCE I carried out a good bit of work making sure all parts of her was getting light (as much as she didn't get, it was more then enough to get A grade bud just like it was done under a 100w). I stripped a lot of shoots coming into & during pre fower. So when coming in to fattening all her energy went into making buds that were brought to harvest. Knowing light would be an Issue (lack off) i made sure to use all my skills to move energy through a plant. After pre fower was over (plants nodes stop growing up) and I left her a few days for the leaves to take in energy building stigmata. Then I done 10-15% defoliations for mid wk into fattening and beyond until I felt was enough removed (3-4 stages). Now on her last few days I took loads of leaves off to help ripening. She's 95% cloudy and 15% or so Amber. I had to give 10l of water to flush the nutes I had given her. 4l was given and ppm was 650. So I had to give another 6L to get the ppm down to 250 area. 3 days its been under light for 11hrs with 30m of UV-A doses from 65cm away (they are attached to my light IR/UV45) FLOWERING/RIPENING WEEKS Plant moved very nicely through fattening. Buds are lots but whets there is pretty darn good for been at the side of a FC3000 300w light in a 1m2 tent doing many other plants. And this been by far been under the best part of it. It sat on the outskirts as this fem is one of my 1st 5 I started together with 7 autos in phase 1 of my 6 phase crop with 10-15 plants per phase. Took (NUMBER 4 this 1 is). 14 weeks from seed. And she's been through a hard flush. As the last 4.5 weeks she's been on Xpert Nutrients. NUTRIENT GIVEN So I know tats a large list. But as I updated my a lot of weeks into 1. I left on the list what was given. All of plagron was given through most of the grow right through to the middle of fattening and then I switched it (all my plants to Xpert Nutrients bloom nutes). And even then, I normally give more than 2-3 nutrients in 1 feeding 2-3 day window. Its important tat a plant take up these as individual so I typically leave a few days or at least 1-2 water feeds (or low ec feeds such as an enzyme, or calmag to help break down any excess nutrients left behind from last feed) I added my SE5000 and have this 60+cm away just finish off the ripening process. Pant has a good amount of bud. And really like this breeder. What have I been missing out on Sweet Seeds both plants are dreams to grow. Thanks to my sponsors. Xpert Nutrients have given me a gift for you guys. !!DISCOUNT CODE FOR XPERT NUTRIENTS!! CODE FOR 15% OFF & FREE SHIPPING IN EU:GGST !!DISCOUNT CODE FOR XPERT NUTRIENTS!! Much appreciation to Sweet Seeds. Seeds are nearly 2yrs old. I've had them for nearly all that time. They were packaged within a month of me getting them. Shout out to Mars-Hydro for their FC3000 & IR/UC45. Had to break out my SE5000 as nice as this plant is its needs fell short been in a tent with 15 other plants. My se5000 is giving 55k lux (that's the lowest level BTW in my corners I just about got that mid field using my 300w.)

Day 66 Day 23 Flower 02/06/24 sunday Feed today! She is looking amazing, bud sites at nice distance this time, she has a strong structure. Light lower defoliation and final lollipop of tidy bud sites reforming. She is starting to smell like garlic / gas it's quite strong already. Dropped down again now to bottom of tent she has full headroom to bloom 💚 Not much else to say this week. Day 67 Day 24 Flower 03/06/24 monday Big feed today she was quite dry she happily took 4L I did 5L with a few drips of run off. She's really doing well in the flower transition. Will update pictures tomorrow. ## Since the weather has got warmer, I have been flooded with fungus gnats. So I have prepared my own organic pesticide spray. Boiling 2.5L water with 1 chopped onion, 1tbsp of chilli flakes, and 3 spoons of ground garlic. Boil for 10mins, simmer for 20. Allow to cool, Sieve off bits and lumps and pour into desired spray bottle. I prepped the soil first by applying ground cinnamon (helps to fight bad bacteria) a sprinkle to top soil. Then applied my sprayed to the soils, giving a generous spray, I left the canopy as already in flower and adding moisture to flowing buds a no go 🤦‍♂️ Already 24hrs after I see the difference, no more air born flies already 🙌😁💚 ## Day 69 Day 26 Flower 05/06/24 Wednesday PHd water and calmag today. Pictures updated. Not much else to say except seeing more developments towards her bud site now.

Well I have to say even though I had a few temperature issues in the night that I think may have stressed them. They took a lot longer than expected but after drying I don’t know how but I ended up with some fantastic tasty buds a few of the plants even came out purple!! I have to say the purple buds are my favourite 🤩 fastbuds never disappoints!!!!!

Boy oh boy look at these babies grow I'm studying them more and more to ensure they are happy. I've notice that gelato 41 is producing bud spots like thats what it was ment for. Tropi cherry is coming along but not as fast as G41, and runtz muffin im a little disappointed in but i believe that is my fault for im still new and have only grown 1 plant prior to these 3. It also doesnt help i had to cut the vegitation cycle by 2 weeks as well. and further more I was at least able to give 2 clones away, the rest were still good but couldn't find them homes so i had to throw them away. Next time I'll have all the room they need and can't wait to make mother plants of my favorites.

Week 2 of Veg... OK!! So she's not doing well and I'm scratching my head a little if I'm honest... Since I upgraded to the taller tent and the Telos 6 Pro Slimline all of the plants have been doing AMAZING apart from her! 🤦‍♂️ The growth on all the others is MASSIVELY accelerated While she just sits there moaning her bag off & I don't know why!?! 🤬 Now I know that they're not identical in terms of genetics as they are 3 different species of plant (Cannabis, Pear Drop Cherry Tomatoes & Sweet Peppers) however they are VERY similar & the other 6 have no signs of burning or stress from excess nutrients or any other environmental issues like temperature or humidity problems. It is Day 16 - 30/05/21 My temperatures and humidity have stayed SOLID for the last 6 hours while the lights were on, they are at 120cm height from my babies as recommended... Temps 24-26c Humidity 70-75% They have all had the exact same weak feeds just 2 small mixes from day 10 onwards, the only difference is I have ran roughly 1L of just pure PH'd water through the Cherry Gar-See-Ya seedling as she looks like she has been burnt to crap!!! The plan now is just to leave her alone and see what happens, Let her dry out a bit and then just a drink of water when she wants it... On a good note she is standing up on her own without support now so I'm hoping she can pull through and this will only knock me back a week or 2 which is fine now I have the extra height to play with 👍 Hopefully I'm doing the right thing by her but some helpful comments right now would be VERY welcomed as I'm still a noob and new to growing 🤓... ...Eager to learn though! 🤔 Potgoblin 🌱✌️

Welcome to week 3F of growfessor theatre, 4x4 edition. The ladies are looking happy and healthy. Do-si-dos received a heavy defoliation, there were a ton of small inner branches starved for light, so they got cut. LSD, Green Crack and Mandarin dreams all received a light defo, yellowing leaves were removed. Lighting provided by Mars-Hydro TSW2000. Thanks for stopping by, tune in next week growfessors for the next episode 👽🌳💚

Bonjour à tous les padawans et maîtres jedis jour84 arrosage avec 25 centilitres d'eau ph6.3 Jour87 arrosage avec 30 centilitres d'eau ph6.3 Jour88 pratique de la techniques du tronc fendu (videos explicatives) et arrosage avec 20 centilitres d'eau ph6.3 COMMENT FENDRE LES TIGES DE VOTRE PLANT DE CANNABIS Pour fendre les tiges de votre plant de cannabis, il vous faudra : Une lame propre et aiguisée (une lame de cutter fonctionne bien) Un mètre ruban Une ficelle ou un adhésif pour marquer les coupures que vous ferez le long de la tige Un crayon, une baguette ou une brochette pour séparer la tige une fois fendue 1. Tout d'abord, commencez par mesurer la partie de la tige que vous allez fendre. Il faut faire une incision d'environ 10–20 cm juste sous la branche la plus basse de votre plant. Utilisez un ruban adhésif ou de la ficelle pour marquer le début et la fin de l'incision. 2. Ensuite, prenez votre lame et faites une incision en travers de la tige, en commençant par le haut. Attention à faire une coupe propre, jusqu'au centre de la tige. 3. Utilisez votre lame pour tailler en descendant vers le bas, jusqu'à la marque inférieure de la mesure que vous avez prise auparavant. Essayez de tailler aussi droit que possible. Une fois que vous avez atteint votre marque du bas, laissez la lame au centre de la tige, puis utilisez un crayon/baguette/brochette pour ouvrir la partie coupée, puis sortez votre lame. QUEL EST LE MEILLEUR MOMENT POUR FENDRE LES TIGES ? Il existe de nombreuses théories sur le meilleur moment pour passer votre tige au couteau, mais la plupart des cultivateurs suggèrent de le faire à la dernière semaine de floraison. Même si certains cultivateurs recommandent de le faire dans les 3 derniers jours avant la récolte, nous recommandons de le faire un peu plus tôt (7–10 jours avant la récolte). QUELS SONT LES RISQUES À FENDRE LES TIGES ? Fendre les tiges est une technique à stress élevé très agressive que nous ne recommandons qu'aux cultivateurs expérimentés. Nous ne recommandons également pas de fendre les tiges sur les variétés à autofloraison, car cela peut être bien trop intense pour elles. FENDRE LES TIGES, ÇA MARCHE VRAIMENT ? Il existe un solide ensemble de cultivateurs expérimentés qui déclarent que le fait de fendre les tiges peut produire de bons résultats. Malheureusement, peu de données qualitatives le prouvent. Cependant, il semble que la fente des tiges soit originaire des Pays-Bas, où elle est pratiquée par des cultivateurs néerlandais experts depuis les années 1970.

Second week of flowering, the girl is getting very healthy, all previous symptoms have disappeared. I am continuing the LST by pulling some rods in a way that all the tops are receiving direct light (Wish I have a scrog network to make the job more efficient) and I defoliated and cutted some buds and lower leaves that did not reach the light. Next week, I'm thinking of turning on the dehumidifier, trying to lower the humidity below 50% See you next week Happy growth guys

Si vous avez la moindre question n'hésitez pas à me contacter. La préparation des boutures est assez simple, il existe plein de guide pour les réaliser, contactez moi si vous rencontrez un problème. Ce qui est important c'est de partir d'une plante saine, ne présentant pas de carences. Si les branches ou feuilles de vos plantes ont un aspect/toucher étrange, il faut vous assurer de régler le problème avant de prélever vos boutures pour vous assurer de la réussite finale. En cas de carence sur vos pieds mères vous pouvez utiliser Revive et B-52 en foliaire et en irrigation pour régler le problème! J'ai donc fais une pulvérisation foliaire le jour précédent les boutures pour m'assurer de leur santé et également une pulvérisation de B-52 sur la plante mère après l'opération de taille! Une fois les bouture réalisé j'ai pulvérisé avec un mélange Voodoo/Tarantula/Piranha pour m'assurer qu'aucune bactérie ou champignon ne puisse venir infecter mes clones. J'ai utilisé des Rockwool Cube et je déconseille. Je trouve que l'enracinement est beaucoup plus difficile qu'avec Root it ou Root Riot de Growth Technology! Le processus dure environ 10 à 15 jours pour l'enracinement et il faut compter encore 5 à 7 jours pour l'enracinement dans le pot 1L. A ce stade les plantes sont enfin enraciner et prêtes à commencer leur croissance!

alarm!! something went wrong the leaves hang down a lot on the vroder plant. it hardly smells like grass but only like wet hay. the tubers look a little shriveled up in the front ones. I have the feeling that she is already overripe but can't really say because it's my first grow. I urgently need good advice

I had a good harvest set up, in order to keep everything sterile. The drying went good and steady with converting my grow tent to dry tent. -Humidity through drying 53-58% RH -Temp a bit high 18-23 10 days of drying Very satisfied with this grow as my first grow. I said i would be more than happy with 100g (dry and trimmed) and i weighted in 95.9g PLUS about 5grams i plan to smoke now 😇 So very happy. Currently in curing jars Not harsh taste, even with no curing. Nice and fruity and a deep high. I will test the THC levels after curing and update my blog. This will def not be my last grow. I had a lot of fun Thanks to everyone on growdiaries that has been giving me pointers and tips 🙏 👉*Btw. I was growing with a "Viparspectra V300" LED through Veg and flower

Vamos familia, actualizamos la octava semana de floración de estas Permanent maker de Seedstockers. La temperatura que estuvo entre los 24-25 grados y humedad dentro de los rangos correctos. En cuanto a las plantas pues estas últimas semanas cogimos un poco de trips y pues ahí ando combatiendo con planchas pegajosas de color azul, estiraron bien y ensancharon bastante también. Las flores se están llenas de tricomas y están acabando de madurar, aún con la plaga, por el momento todo correcto, ya está semana solo recibieron agua, estoy esperando para desinfectar todo por la plaga y poder empezar en nuevo proyecto. Hasta aquí todo lo de esta semana , ya queda nada, buenos humos. - os dejo por aquí un CÓDIGO: Eldruida Descuento para la tienda de MARS HYDRO. https://www.mars-hydro.com Hasta aquí todo, Buenos humos 💨💨💨
