(Vitamin C(Ascorbic Acid) is a coenzyme in the xanthophyll cycle, which converts excess energy into heat. This process helps plants protect themselves from too much light. You can remove both chlorine and chloramine in water with the same strategies. Carbon filtration is a very effective method, but it takes a lot of carbon and water/carbon contact to do the job. That’s why Vitamin C (L-Ascorbic acid) is a better solution. Does ascorbic acid/Vitamin C actually work to remove chlorine? Research by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) found that using ascorbic acid for chlorine is effective and works rapidly. One gram of ascorbic acid will neutralize 1 milligram per liter of chlorine per 100 gallons of water. The reaction is very fast. The chemical reaction (Tikkanen and others 2001) of ascorbic acid with chlorine is shown below: C5H5O5CH2OH + HOCL → C5H3O5CH2OH + HCl + H2O Ascorbic acid + Hypochlorous acid → Dehydroascorbic acid + Hydrochloric acid + water Vitamin C effectively neutralizes chlorine and is safer to handle than sulfur-based dechlorination chemicals. The sodium ascorbate form of vitamin C has less affect on pH than the ascorbic acid form. When neutralizing a strong chlorine solution, both forms of vitamin C will lower slightly the dissolved oxygen of the treated water.

These girls are still perfect. You want a picture perfect set of plants and it's these they are all damn identical i am still blown away by how close they are from growing from seed! The only real diffrnce is 1 has slightly wider smaller leafs so more leaned indica hybrid but all the spacing between the 4 are about the same. They have been receiving about 500ml of food/ water about every 3 days with the ph at 5.6-5.7. Will top these girls soon to get a couple heads started just didn't want to end the symmetry. Still no smell or sign of preflower yet, with a stem rub they feel sticky to touch and only smell green so just tells me they healthy. Soon a smell will come along! Peace be with you!

Die Woche 5 ist rum. Das System funktioniert sehr gut. Die Blumat Classic Tonkegel reichen aus für den Wasserbedarf ohne das ich gießen muss. Die Euforia scheint nicht genügend Autoflower-Genetik mitbekommen zu haben. Es gibt keine Anzeichen einer Vorblüte, während die Dos Si Dos schon in die Blüte startet. Immerhin ist die Euforia weiblich. Die Lemon Haze beginnt auch langsam die Massephase neben ein bisschen Unkraut.

Que pasa familia, vamos con la quinta semana de floración de estas Gorilla Zkittlez Auto de FastBuds. La tierra que utilizamos que está en la publicación anterior es top crop all mix, aparte alimentamos nuestras plantas con Agrobeta. Por supuesto el ph se mide en cada riego y se mantiene en 6.2, regando cada 48/72 horas e intentando mantener la humedad un poco alta al principio. Se ven bien sanas tienen buen color , ya empiezan asomar aromas y el tamaño bueno no puedo quejarme, estas semanas vemos como maduran las flores. Agrobeta: https://www.agrobeta.com/agrobetatiendaonline/36-abonos-canamo Hasta aquí todo, Buenos humos 💨💨

Tent is all ready for these girls! 💪🤘 11-15 Transplant day to 3 gallon. 4 tbs craft blend, 1/2 cupish worm poo, hp connect in hole. watered in 8ozish ph6.2 yucca, humic light around 280 ppfd, will move up a bit in a day or 2 to be safe. 11-16 Seems well when I woke up. 11-17 Just did some growing today. Drank a little water. Thristy probably tomorrow. 11-18 Water with cal/mag, drops of balance, yucca and recharge.

This grow is an example of how important is to check your veg time to make sure it doesn't shoot over the lights and over the roof really, overall is good tho. Also i ditched advanced nutrients for a new brand, since advanced nutrients are just costly stickers imho. 11/16/24 bought a new fert , that will not only last me 10 times with a fraction of cost, also it's much easier then mixing 24 different bottles , also all the liquid ferts tends to cristallize so i don't even know if the fert i've applyied in the past (advanced nutrients perfect ph micro-grow-bloom) was all bioavailable (probably not) since the buds looks already bigger after 1 application. Also Ferty 1 Geo has also molybdenum among the microelements wich was not present on advanced nutrients. cheers!

All right here we are day 100 39 of flower and as expected the buds are not going to be huge I'm thinking thumb size as I stated a few weeks ago it's still got some grown to do so I'm hoping she bulks up.. she smells great and I'm happy with how the canopy came out however I think from now on I'm going to keep the topping to a minimal once maybe twice tops.. thank you Weedseedsexpress for the opportunity to grow your genetics I'm getting excited as strawberry cough has been a long time coming for me.. this plant is one of two that I planted in the same soil and the other one didn't make it because it was used soil with salt based nutrients I say that to say this little girl has really pulled through some tough times and I didn't help any with what I did to her so overall the genetics I would say are extremely stable strong as she had quite the will to live.. I hope everybody is doing well and so are there ladies God bless and happy growing everyone ✌️😎

Os fertilizantes tenho usado alternadamente em intervalos de 3 a 4 dias entre as regas . Pois tive que recolher as plantas para a estufa. Quebrei as ponteiras para não alongar muito a planta pois tenho limites de altura da iluminação e quero ver se ela fica mais cheia de botões no caule .

Somit beginnt Woche 5. Woche 4 war entspannt. Abermals legt Painkiller XL ein gutes Wachstum hin. Ich schätze, dass der Stretch nun vorbei ist und alles in die Blüten geht. Schaut euch dieses Blüten bitte an. Wunderschön und harzig.

I want to start LST on Day 23. I will just bend her down and tie the leaves to the side. Every Strain is doing really good, im watering them all 3 days adding the nutritions above. But i also see some strains that didnt like the overwatering at the start. And i burned my strawberry gorilla a bit with waterdrops on the leaves. but she seems to be unimpressed by that. Today i also noticed a very little smell when i opened my tent. im curious which one is making this scent, it was really sweet. i raised the light intensity from 70% to 85%, leavin the rest for bloom. Day 24: i watered them yesterday with about half a litre of water. i included lacalva stress treatment before making the LST. i kind of feeling like im a bit too late, but we will see. Day 26: we had a blackout, because a constructionworker hitted the main cable. 2,5 hours less light, im so glad that these are automatics! Day 27: Damn guys, i think i did bad on this LST stuff. all of them are really bushy and very strong showing upward. in my first grow, i never had these issues. but all of the stems are so huge. they are close to be bigger than the final stem of my first grow. i think i need to defoliate them soon. i removed the wire and let them do what they want, until they get to know the net.

Einige Blätter, die ich nicht aus dem Weg bekommen habe und welche die künftigen Buds beschatten, habe ich abgenommen. Ebenso abgestorbenes Blattmaterial. 22.11. Die ersten Trichome sind sichtbar und darunter scheint es ziemlich violett zu sein *freu*

Ein paar Blätter abgezwickt, die die falschen Stellen beschattet haben. Ansonsten nur gegossen und Erdhaken neu ausgerichtet. 22.11. Die Stigmen werden jetzt immer mehr.
