Decided to harvest. Single treated plant 3x weight of other untreated 2. Same pot, same nutrient, same spectral composition,same ppfd, same music, same treatment same everything except 2 things One is genetic. Next grow will be identical clones. 2 will be treated, 2 will not. Dandelion (Taraxacum officinale L. syn. Taraxacum vulgare L.), belonging to the Asteraceae family, is a pharmacopeial, edible plant. It probably originated from Europe; it also gradually spread to Asia, then North America, and later to some South American countries. In many European countries, it is a common weed growing in fallow fields, roadsides, meadows, and lawns. Dandelion is a perennial weed with sturdy taproot, long green leaves organized in a rose-like manner, single yellow flowers, and characteristic cotton-like fruits with many seeds that are scattered by the wind [14]. The pharmacopeial raw materials are the roots of the dandelion (Taraxaci radix), herba, and also flowers. The traditional uses of dandelion that are mentioned in the literature concern its use as a remedy in kidney diseases, diabetes, bacterial infections, diuretic, liver, kidney, and spleen disorders, and as an anti-inflammatory factor [15]. On the other hand, dandelion parts are used as food, mainly as a salad ingredient, young leaves are placed in many dishes, and the inulin-rich roots are used as substitutes for coffee or tea [15]. It has been detected that approximately 100 g of fresh leaves contain 88.5 g of water, 19.1 g of crude protein, 6.03 g of crude fat, 10.8 g of crude fiber, and 0.67 g/100 g dry matter of calcium, 6.51 g/100 g dry matter of potassium, 3.99 g/100 g dry matter of zinc, 12.6 mg/100 g dry matter of tocopherols, 156.6 mg/100 g dry matter of L -ascorbic acid and 93.9 mg/100 g dry matter of carotenoids [16]. Dandelion flower extracts can be used as flavor additives in many food products, such as desserts, candies, baked cakes, puddings, and other similar food products [17]. The main active compounds of dandelion are presented in Figure 2. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9498421/ The dandelion's purpose is to pull calcium from deep and bring it up to the topsoil, its root system can penetrate deeper than grass.

Greetings, fellow cultivators and cannabis aficionados! It's that time again for a progress update on my cannabis grow diary. The journey continues to be an exciting one, with each day bringing new developments and surprises. The plants are on a determined mission to bulk up, and I couldn't be happier with their progress. Their growth during this flowering phase has been nothing short of remarkable. The buds are swelling day by day, becoming more robust and enticing. It's a rewarding sight that speaks volumes about the care and attention that have gone into their cultivation. With the buds maturing, the next milestone on the horizon is the impending flush. As the plants approach the final stage of their growth cycle, a flush will be in order to cleanse them of any accumulated nutrients. This process sets the stage for a smooth and flavorsome harvest, ensuring that the true essence of the buds shines through. One of the most captivating aspects of this phase is the visual transformation the plants undergo. As you can see from the photos, the buds have started to exhibit a mesmerizing purple hue. This natural phenomenon is a joy to behold and adds a touch of mystique to the grow space. The interplay of vibrant green and rich purple hues is a testament to the unique genetics of these plants. The journey thus far has been an amalgamation of learning, dedication, and admiration for the resilience of these cannabis plants. As we continue to nurture them through their final stretch, I'm reminded of the incredible community that surrounds this hobby. Your support and shared experiences have been invaluable in shaping this journey. Stay tuned for the upcoming flush and the final phase of this cultivation endeavor. Until then, keep cultivating with passion and keep celebrating the magic of cannabis!

Hi Growmies, She is bones and buds, all of them are rock hard, the nuggets itself stopped stretching and I therefore added some PK13/14 to induce and support swelling and later on the ripening . I got my hands on a sample of Rockzbastic from Atami, any thoughts, as this could be fed week 5-6 of flower, so I was thinking of adding it next week. Other than that are the expectations super high as of now. Guesstimate would be roughly 3-4 weeks to harvest.

F15 to 21 Tuesday Big big big. Humidity was getting hard to handle especially during lights out so I had to do a mid stretch cleanup. I mostly did a lollipop to get air flowing through the plant. I didn't go too hard even though it looks like I did. I will do the last one in a week. ~1000ppm 3/4-full bloom @ ~5.8-5.9 Lights 100% @ 7-12" 25-26c / ~53rh

Hi Growmies, I changed the cutting in the tank to one I still had in my other tent, as these were showing a lot more signs of a revegging plant compared to the one I had in the tank previously. I will top her very soon to stimulate a more lateral growth, before I will move her into the small box in roughly two weeks, once the Afghan is harvested and dried. I have also added a dripper as I suspected the lack of topwatering caused the old one to fail.

I had a pretty good overall grow with Drunken Bitch Slap from Aeque Genetics. She grew well under the Hortibloom Solux 350. It looks like she will provide several ounces of good bud when dry. She got very big and has long saggy branches with nice frost buds on it. She smells like a black licorice, and gas smell. I am very curious to how she smokes. Thank you Aeque Genetics, and Hortibloom. 🤜🏻🤛🏻💪🏻❄️🌱 Thank you grow diaries community for the 👇likes👇, follows, comments, and subscriptions on my YouTube channel👇. ❄️🌱🍻 Happy Growing 🌱🌱🌱 https://youtube.com/channel/UCAhN7yRzWLpcaRHhMIQ7X4g
