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.)

Buds are really frosting up coming to to harvest. Most trichs are showing as cloudy with the occasional 1 Amber. Will run 1 more week under the light. 3 /4 days of regular tap water (de-Chlorinated ) followed by 48 hours of darkness before the chop. I wish I had the space initially to train to its full potential but exited to get 4 new autos on the go.

Day 50 from seed and these BCN criticals have a lovely citrus smell. When i open the tent, its the first thing i smell. Theyre all healthy and running. Lights are still on 20/4. Bit of redish/amber hairs showing up. When i loom at other pictures its just the genes of the genetic. I Cant wait to harvest this! Ive started adding more biobizz as it states on the chart. And then i water with normal tap water every 2 days! I will post an update for week 8 next week! One love!

Buds are packing on more weight and tightening up. Shouldn't be too much longer now. I'm going to do a flush with compost tea today. It helps wash out any salt buildup and it inoculates my coco at the same time. The plants seem to love it.

Hi guys, in the middle of this week I changed my 400w HPS to a 600w one. I also added another 600w HPS to give more light to the plants in these last 10 days of vegetative growth. So now i use 2 600w HPS. So far everything has been fine. Plants begin to stretch after the stress of cutting. If you know any good nourishment for the flowering phase, I listen to you, thank you. Stay tuned 🦍😎

So there's a few things going on here. First, im not entirely sure if this is amnesia. I started 3 grows at the same time and have forgotten to label them when i've repotted them. This is the most sativa out of the batch of 3 (others are girl scout cookies and monster skittlez) and its supposed to flower for 12 weeks or something like that. However, this is week 7 of flower (or possibly 8, still finding it difficult to pinpoint that) and looking at the trichromes i have a feeling that she is ready for harvest. I'm hoping you guys can help me out here - so theres two questions id like to ask: - does this look like an amnesia fotoperiod plant? and, - according to the trichrome shots : is she about ready for harvest? thanks!

The Ztrawberriez girls have absolutely exploded this week, super happy with their early progress.💚 All three seedlings are off to a flying start, stretching up with strength and vigor. No issues so far, they’ve handled the environment like champs and are developing beautifully. Looking lush, green, and full of promise – can’t wait to see how they take off in the next phase! 🌱✨

Volvi a transplantar esta planta a una maceta mas grande (de 3 litros) , regue con micorrizas,y por ahora se la ve bien. Todavía estoy pensando si mas adelante no la paso a tierra de forma definitiva porque hacer eso requiere de más dedicación y cuidados. Para aquellos que seguian los diarios de la amnesia y og kush, les comento que en la última semana me atacaron los plantines algun bicho que destruyeron por completo dichos plantines.🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

I profumi iniziano a sentirsi forti e ben definiti! Le cime delle happy ending sembrano le più grosse e compatte e resinose al momento. Anche le pink poochie promettono bene. Le zerberry stanno mutando colore sul violaceo

Since I am in DWC and the fertilizers are organic, I take care to add them slowly.. Como estoy en DWC y los fertilizantes son orgánicos, me ocupo de añadirlos lentamente... Por el momento no controlo la atmósfera, sólo tengo un extractor ajustado a 400m3/h para los 2 lumatek al 75%. Planeo controlar la atmósfera a partir de la inyección de CO2 en la semana 2 o 3 para ver más. Mientras tanto tengo algunos picos de temperatura por encima de los 28 pero son realmente específicos. Estoy tratando de mantener la humedad lo suficientemente alta para tener un buen VPD. For the moment I don't control the atmosphere, I just have an extractor set at 400m3/h for the 2 lumatek at 75%. I plan to control the atmosphere from the CO2 injection in week 2 or 3 to be seen again. In the meantime I have a few temperature peaks over 28 but they are really specific. I am trying to keep the humidity high enough to have a good VPD. Subí un poco la ec este fin de semana 4 de 0.9 a 1 I turned up the ec a bit this weekend 4 from 0.9 to 1

The environmental system seems to be keeping conditions a lot closer then I could manage using guess work and timers, probably the best investment I have made for growing. #1 Wedding cheesecake FF hasn't started stretching yet and has turned into a proper bush, I have had to remove a load of leaves throughout the week, a few every couple of days and then I removed a load of the lower nodes that aren't going to make it past the screen. She hasn't started showing pistils yet. Power used for week Light (1.85+1.79+1.79+1.78+1.75+1.75+1.75)=12.46Kw Extractor (0.16+0.12+0.14+0.15+0.14+0.17+0.18)=1.06Kw Fans (0.39+0.39+0.41+0.4+0.39+0.39+0.40)=2.77Kw Dehumidifier (1.26+0.62+0.73+0.04+0.11+0.55+1.61)=4.92Kw Radiator (1.59+2.70+2.28+3.6+2.86+3.15+3.23)=19.41Kw Water pump.
