Topping appears to be working well. Began some LST via tie down to encourage growth to other branches.

This plant just got flushed so all old salts are gone, tommorow i start watering with just finalpart at 3ml/L she will be ready one week later, 10 days max. So next update is harvest.

I want to world peace and big buds, u know..

Ne Obliviscaris. Humidity Day 40-45%, Night 60-65% Internodes are very close together. was hitting 450umol at seedling level making it absorb more than it can use, reduced to 280-300umol @18 hours as expected vertical growth increased. During the 18 hours of daylight the first 9 is highly saturated in blue, 5000 kelvin, the 9 hours thereafter are closer to 3000 kelvin. Last 9 hours dosed 280nm. Height is too far to cause damage. UVB light is not detected by plants in the same way other wavelength/colours are. UV cannot be measured using umol as it doesn't drive photosynthesis. The plant has tiny little sensors that get set off to even little amounts, dimer salt bridges, the UV decays these salt bridges, which initiate response. You don't need large/long exposure doses for the plant to recognize UV is present. What's an enzyme? Think of it like a multiplier, you can add an enzyme to any particular biological process to vastly increase its proficiency at a particular process. Cannabis plants take blue/violet light and use it to create an enzyme called "photolayse". This allows the plant to repair UV damage done to the plant using a process called excision repair, this repairs the damage at a much much faster rate than it could by itself. Repairing 100% damage. The key is the plant needs time to build a reserve of the repair enzymes before using it. This is replicated in nature as, by midday UV levels peak, the generally cooler mornings allow lifetime to build up. The problem I encountered was dosing with 280nm lights on or 1 hour after the lights were on. Photomorphogenesis, the plant plans for the future of its growth, if the wavelength is not present during growth then how can it plan accordingly? The very presence of UV changes parameters with which the plant will grow, light itself dictates the growth pattern of the plant. Not only that it can dramatically alter the regular terpene profile of a strain in unexpected ways. Gran daddy purple grown using 280nm can triple already high terpene linalool. Linalool is terpene best known for lavender, largely responsible for its beautiful smell. Trouble sleeping you say? Having tried Durban poison from a dispensary and reading about its levels of tetrahydrocannabivarin. I've always wanted to taste the difference UV would make to such an already stand-out strain such as Durban.

Hello everyone. It is Day 27 of flowering, and she is stretching like she just woke up from a long nap. The conditions are being a bit moody this week, with humidity swinging around 67% in the lung room and temperatures creeping up to 29°C inside the tent due to the dehumidifier working overtime. On the feeding side, I started pushing the limits with PK 13/14 at 1.5 ml per 1 liter, alongside 2.8 ml per 1 liter of Canna Coco A and B. Since I forgot to take photos with the lights on, you will have to settle for dark-mode shots until I update the journal tomorrow. Thank you for stopping by and have a nice day. Best regards, Growfather.

Week 15 - unstoppable growth! My measuring stick is at its end. It only reaches 180cm and we are above that. It's getting hard to reach and prune the top but I'm not giving up. Temp is stable, humidity at a nice level, lots of sunshine. This summer is really something. But we had a huge storm. Nothing a little tape cant fix. One of the early branches broke off, but my net caught it and with a little tape it's as good as new

08/12 Au pain sec et à l'eau. 🙂👍 12/12 😀 14/12 😍 🤤 Je vais dire que tout était calculé..😂

On day 1 the plants are looking good. I confirmed that my one cola was seeded, so I removed all visible seed pods. After this run I will do a deep cleaning to make sure there is no pollen in my grow box. The rest of my plant colas seem fine... I changed out my reservoir and adjusted the PH to 6.1. I also dimmed my light to 75% to mimic spring conditions. On day 2 I adjusted the PH of the reservoir down to 6.1. The plants are looking great besides a few fox tails from too much light. On day 3 the PH in the reservoir is 6.2. On day 4 I diluted my reservoir with plain water to lower the ppm down to 400 ppm, and I adjusted PH to 6.2 . The buds are ripening for sure and smell great! I haven't gotten any autumn colors yet even though I have dimmed my grow light and lowered my night time temps. I hope by 8 weeks the plants will have some more purple tones but if not I'm good with the flower quality thus far :). The breeder says 7-8 weeks so I'm hoping I am close to the finish line. I will continue to monitor the trichomes for ripeness. On day 5 I adjusted the reservoirs PH to 6.0. I harvested my seeded cola on Pheno #1 as it had stopped growing/ripening and would be a good tester ;) On day 6 the reservoirs PH is 6.2. On day 7 the PH is 6.0 50 % pistils have turned amber so I believe I have entered my harvest window and expect to flush and harvest soon:) very excited!

Ladies and gentlemen, day 66 is here and as you can see, she has a long way to go... but she has had one heck of a stretch and the internodal spacing is awesome, so i'm just going to let her go gonna be probably another 2 months before she gets the axe because I really want these buds to swell up big and fat ... Big shout out to Zamnesia Seeds and Plagron for making this grow possible and inviting me to participate in their awesome contest.. other breeders, take notes.This is how you do a contest 👌 ... i will update throughout the week if need be and if not, I'll be back in 7 days like clockwork to update my diary ... thanks, everybody stopping by and showing love.It is much appreciated.. God bless everybody good luck to all of those in the contest and to those that are just growing for the love of growing , or for the need for this medicine, good luck to you as well.. Growers love guys ✌️

Checkout my Instagram @smallbudz to see the Small budget grow setup for indoor use, low watt, low heat, low noise, step by step. 06/02/2020 - Gave her 1,5l of tap water, checked the trichomes still transparent almost turning cloudy maybe a few more day!! 08/02/2020 - Showing her first amber trichomes going to harvest in 1 to 2 days !

Hello Diary. Looking back, it was another great trip. Titan F1 enters my list of my favorite strains. I think I wrote more or less everything that happened earlier, so I will continue to write the further course of events. Basically, I watered the plants two days before I harvested the Titan F1, because the two plants in the grow box were still maturing (Apollo F1 and Milky Way F1). I cut Titan at the bottom of the stand and hung the cut branches in a cardboard box to dry. As the flowers were very packed, the excess water in the plant created a lot of humidity and the best flowers went moldy. Unfortunately, I didn't manage to take photos because my wife immediately threw them away so as not to contaminate the rest. No messing around with mold. So the result is the following: Moldy flowers - 17g Good flowers - 48g Total of dried flowers Titan F1 - 65g If the mold hadn't happened, it would have been a good harvest. But the thing is, I have the other almost 50 g to enjoy. Thank you all for your support and I hope that this diary will encourage someone to try this great strain. Five for Titan F1. I would like to thank the Royal Queen Seeds team for supporting this wonderful hobby of mine for some time now.

Week 3 since we first put seeds in the dirt. Found out the hard way that's not really how we want to germinate our seeds moving forward. Had a pretty shitty success rate. I still have 300 seeds left so, live and learn. The ak by critical mass has taken off pretty well, the OG Kush is taking longer than we expected, the quarter pounder is moving along quite nicely and the Northern Lights, which are only a week old are still lagging behind. In the "clone room" the MKUltra is looking very nice, growing extremely fast and we will probably be putting those into flower in the next couple of weeks. We went ahead and chose a few of them for mother plants; we took 25 clones today and set them up on a rack with cob LED lights. We also started our mother plant seeds; Northern Lights, blueberry, white widow, and super lemon Haze. Hopefully those will pop in the next few days, and in anticipation we have added a small mother room (closet really) for them where we will hang 2 800 watt LED cob lights and one Mars hydro sp250 and veg those out until we can start taking clones. Thanks for looking!

I'm loving red poison, not only does it look great my god am I high. also on the upside it helped me with my pain enough for me to get more than 3-4 hrs of sleep in 3 months 😭

Trying to keep the day temperature a bit lower. The growtent is located in my shed. First time in hydro so if you have advice for me I would appreciate. 😁

Pubblico oggi ad 8 giorni perché la settimana scorsa avevo pubblicato a 6 giorni così mi sono rimesso in paro,siamo arrivati alla 6 settimana di vita per le più grandi,quasi 4 1/2 per le più piccole, sono diventate altissime,una si é allungata un pò per via di una carenza di manganese poi risolta con l'inverdente SANA COMPO,però promettono bene sono molto grandi e già i prefiori strabordano di resina,continuiamo questo percorso e vedremo col passare del tempo la grandezza dei fiori

WEEK 5 START OF DAY 29 I should say if you watch the video this week💰buy the cheaper single laser thermometer💰it is hard to get the dual infrared thermometer to hit a single leaf blade. I have the nutrients selected only to get noticed in the different categories on this site. I’m trying to get Front Row AG listed as a nutrient selection on Grow Diaries. ⭐️Nutrients used this week⭐️ Front Row AG Si .5ml per gallon Front Row AG Part A 2.9g per gallon Front Row AG Part B 2.0g per gallon Front Row AG Phoszyme .4g per gallon Front Row AG Bloom 2.3g per gallon Front Row AG CleanUp .2g per gallon All nutrients are mixed in that order and allowed to fully dissolve in RO water before mixing into 60 gallon tank of RO water. So far so good. At the end of this week the plants will be flushed with a 1.0EC solution of calmag and Canna pk13/14 and allowed to dry all the way out…to the point of oh shit that’s dry. Then I will boost the EC for 2 weeks to Front Row AG’s high strength chart. These are the last 2 weeks of heavy feeding. Then one week of lower nutes and 1 week to 10 days of flush. For my first time running Front Row AG nutrients, things are going great. I defoliate leaves here and there daily. It just seems like the shit grows right back by the next day 🤣. Mandarin Cookies has a lot less leaves than the old school strain that is in the room. I’ve got 3 keeper phenos and will show them prominently in next weeks photos. I’ve got one in particular that smells like sour oranges and gasoline…hopefully it fattens nicely over the next 3 weeks and will be my keeper for a mother plant. Thanks for all the comments and I’ll see you next week

: - Day 1 week 5: just checking how lst is doing, they will be ok - Day 2 week 5: not completely dry to water so I’ll wait for day 3 of week. Did lst to make sure all branches receive as much ligth as possible - Day 3 week 5: watered them with 4ml/L calmag and 2ml/L bio grow ph 6,5 tap water trough activated carbon filter. RHC#2 broke one of the branches, I had to tape it. Not to be worried, she’ll recover from that. RHC#3 is very slow compared to the others. - Day 4 week 5: defoliation so sun enters better and wait. - Day 5 week 5: added 1L of water with 2ml/L Bio grow, 6 ml/L calmag and 2ml/L bio heaven. 1600 us/cm and ph 6,2 - 6,5. RHC#3 suffered of broken branch due lst 😞 still learning about the flexibility of branches. I think she’ll recover hoping not too much stress for her. - Day 6 week 5: RHC#3 looks good despite broken branch. Not much for today just watch temp and humidity, hoping they grow tall so I can cover a good part of the tent.
