📆 Week 11, 30 June - 6 July 2024 30 June - 6 July - Observed and let the plant grow. 📑 All is great with this little lady. She is entering her final week of flower, just before a flush. The smell is very strong, leaves are fading nicely, and buds have swollen. The pistils have turned brown and trichomes are almost at 10% amber. She is at her peek of ripeness. 🍶 nutrient solution not changed 🍽️ feeding schedule not updated 💧 Using reverse osmosis water with EC/TDS at 0 🔆 Light power at 50%, DLI 40 canopy coverage at 18hrs 😤 Using PYPABL, Air Pump, 400GPH That is it for this week. Thanks for the look, read and stopping by.

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.

Finally starting to see signs of flowering. I am gonna add a red light and a 2nd scrog net and I should get it next week. I ordered it for the blooming gonna see if it makes a difference. To decide if I want for future grows..

Week 9 of flowering, Day 92 = the smell is incredible a. the buds are smelling very sweet, and still growing very large b. we are in the home stretch c. the trichomes are very milky d. the DWC is half full of 1620ppm nutrients at 6.5PH, I am cutting it in half with Mineral Water to finish the maturing process e. stigmas are changing color very rapidly, and the smell is incredibly strong Day 93 - WOW! The smell is becoming very intense a. we do not have a carbon filter on this box as it is out in our barn, but holy cow when we walk about 5 meters from the barn we can smell it strong b. added 4L of mineral water to the DWC to cut the Ripen down c. the buds are maturing fast! this will be harvested around day 100/101/102 d. for this week we are moving light to 11/13 Day 94 - resin explosions everywhere a. the light switch always makes more resin appear, and causes white stigmas to turn pink/orange b. she has slowed down her drinking a bit c. tomorrow the DWC will be pumped out, and 10L of water with FloraKleen will be added for 2 days Day 95 - trichomes look wonderful! a. 100x microscope shows really nice trichome development, majority milky white, with some amber, a few clear which should go white/amber in the next few days, and while drying. b. installed FloraKleen at 3ml/L with 10L of mineral water, will keep FloraKleen in for 2 days, then remove c. the pistils are all turning red/orange and brown Day 96 - growing well a. the buds continue to fully mature, the pistils are changing rapidly, and there are very few clear trichomes anywhere I look b. she is drinking less and less, her life is coming to an end I see, i constantly remove dead curled up leaves from her Day 97 - maturing, and smelling awesome a. i uploaded a video of the buds b. the trichomes are all milky white, and a probably 5-10% amber, they are SO greasy! Just like Girl Scout Cookies! c. installed a dehumidifier into the tent, it works well Day 98 - she is in the harvest window a. what a great plant to grow, 95% pistils are orange/red/brown and trichomes are 90% milky, 5% amber and a few clears here and there b. I am removing some leaves today to open her up a bit c. I think we will go another week, I will be in Geneva, so hopefully she will eat her leaves!

What up Grow Fam. Weekly update on these beauties. They've stopped the stretching part and now started focusing on flower sites. Seeing the flowers swell almost daily is wild to watch. I started to drop the night temps down to low 60's and around 70 with the lights on. All in all Happy Growing.

Esta semana fue tranquila. Voy a subir solo fotos del ultimo día de la semana, el día 49. Si se compara con la semana anterior, las ramas están creciendo a buen ritmo, a pesar de que las temperaturas en esta zona están bajando bastante. Alimente la planta con una solución de FPJ + LAB's en agua sin cloro, de manera que día de por medio alterno el riego entre esta solución y agua sin cloro. 😃 A pesar de que en esta zona la humedad ambiente es alta (50%-70%), aplico 2 o 3 veces por semana riego foliares con LAB's 1/1000. La planta lo agradece muchísimo y sus hojas se mantienen lindas y sanas. El olor que largan las hojas al tocarlas es casi frutado, riquísimo 😋. Me sorprende que tengan tan buen olor en vegetación. Esperamos en 2-3 semanas que las ramas hayan crecido lo suficiente para pasar la planta a floración. Cualquier consejo es bienvenido! Saludos!!

Hi guys, What's up? Welcome back. We always challenge nature to see how far its strength can reach....and I would say that it is putting a lot of effort into it here We want our girls pumped up and with firm asses, so every day they do a lot of gym work to keep fit😄

all good! Removed some leafs

Riego: 1ml Bio grow 1ml Top max 1ml top bloom 1ml calmag 1ml Bio Heaven 0.5 Micorrizas colectivo científico Se han ido ajustando los amarres de LST cada día por medio aprox.

This week I decided to recruit my husband to get a proper look at this girl's roots. She's gotten so damn big that it's impossible for me to get a shot otherwise. Her root ball is massive. She's large and in charge. I went through and gave her another thorough round of defoliation. What I removed was any droopy leaves in the underbrush, as well as any fan leaves that were casting shadows and blocking light from my bud sites. When I was finished, I was able to stand over my plant, look down, and visibly see through to the base of my plant and grow media. Being able to do this suggests to me that my light source is also able to penetrate down throughout the plant as well. The removal of these leaves also contributed to improved air circulation and decreased humidity - both which are important as we progress through the flowering stage. This week I also caught my first whiff of this plant's sweet aroma. I'm excited to see how her terps develop over the upcoming weeks! 😋😋😋 I cloned another branch off this plant. Baby Tester FF3s are slowly taking over my house. 😂 Thank you for following along! This has been so fun! ✌️ 💜 🌱

End of the 2nd week and GG4 Sherbet FF is taking her sweet time to grow and develop. I been having some issues with her, but I'm optimistic and I know she is going to pull through.

Hey growmies! Yay winter just started around here, nights are getting coldder around 12C degrees at night. Sweet skunk is huge now and looking good with the lst i applied ive to water her once every 2 days cause she is drinkin A lottt. Not much happening for the gorilla i suppose she got stuned a lot, lets see if she comes back, still lots of time. I’ll see you guys next Sunday as always much love and goodsmokes❤️🏻💨

It's looking great. Good grow this week from all plant. Took some leafs off for more light on stem and reduce humidity.

my girl got bad water with bad ph for a while :( 2 ph meters broke, but now the problem has been solved, she got good water with calmag, the girl started to look better little by little :) good luck to you

End of wk3, getting frosty
