Week 1: Transition to Flowering Welcome to the fifth weekly update of our cannabis cultivation journey in Germany! As we transition from the vegetative stage to the flowering stage, our strains—Pulp Friction, Cookies Haze, Eleven Roses, Poddy Mouth, Critical Lemon Kush, and OG Kush—are ready for the next phase of their growth. Before entering the flowering stage, we took a few important steps to prepare the plants for optimal flowering. Key Developments: 1. Pre-Flowering Preparation: - The plants were defoliated to remove excess leaves and improve light penetration and airflow. - Each plant was repositioned to ensure they have ample space and light exposure. 2. Growing Medium and Setup: - The plants are grown in a mix of living soil, coco coir, perlite, and clay pebbles. - The soil mix includes mycorrhizal fungi cultures to support healthy root development. 3. Watering and Nutrient System: - The plants are watered from the bottom using an AutoPot system, which provides a consistent supply of nutrient solution. - The pots are equipped with air domes connected to an air pump, delivering oxygen directly to the roots to enhance growth. Steps Taken: 1. Defoliation and Positioning: - Carefully removed excess fan leaves to improve light distribution and airflow within the canopy. - Repositioned the plants to ensure each one has enough space to grow and receive adequate light. 2. Watering and Nutrient Management: - Set up the AutoPot system to supply a balanced nutrient solution to the plants. - Ensured the nutrient solution is appropriate for the flowering stage, with a focus on supporting bud development. 3. Air Domes and Oxygenation: - Connected the air domes to an air pump to deliver oxygen to the root zone. - Monitored the air pump to ensure consistent oxygen flow to the roots. Next Steps: - Monitor the plants closely for signs of flowering and adjust the light cycle to 12 hours on and 12 hours off to initiate and support flowering. - Continue to observe the plants for any signs of nutrient deficiencies or excesses and adjust the feeding regimen as needed. - Ensure the AutoPot system and air domes are functioning properly to maintain optimal hydration and oxygenation. Stay tuned for next week’s update, where we’ll discuss the progress of the first week of flowering and any adjustments made to the care routine. Feel free to ask any questions or share your own experiences in the comments below!

looking well but i think she could have a little more resin production at this stage, currently going in to week 6. any tips would be helpful, im already pumping co2 in there above the plant so it falls down, under a 200w attis lumatek led. (will upgrade next grow) ... the old co2 pack behind the plant is empty and old just not removed 🤣 thanks :)

Warmed up again, 34c highs, but cool nights down to 14c. Flowering has really sped up, this F1's flowering response is very fast, just tons and tons of pistils and the start of trichomes already. Did another compost tea this week, few hours of drip irrigation and a weekly spray of LCPT, easy going this week. Rains coming next week, but fingers crossed for some good weather over September to finish. Would like to push another 6 weeks if possible, but anything after the first week of October is really hard due to the constant 95% humidity.

I feel sorry about myself for not being able to give her the shape I wanted in the time I had settle of vegetative stage, the smell is absolutely gorgeous for a sativa plant, if you smell her you could think she's a pure blueberry strain, very very sweet and floral aroma, hope to keep working with her in many more runs, indoors and outdoors as well!! 💯 Let's see how this beautiful haze keeps developing those flowers! 💛❤️💚👨‍🌾

Welcome back in the Purple Project ! Buds still growing gently, nice earthy smell slowly tickling my nose. No excess or deficiency at the moment. I'm not using Rhino Skin and Bud Factor X cause I couldn't find them where I am. I Ordered some from a online spanish shop but it's never been sent ... Stay tuned for big purple colas, The Dude

Non riesco più ad aggiornare il diario come sempre comunque è stata una settimana bellissima! Ogni varietà sta completando le fioritura in maniera abbondante. Infiorescenze dure e molto resinose si formano in ogni parte delle piante. Sembrano tutte XXL di dimensioni! Molto profumate ogni varietà ha il suo raffinato aroma, non manca molto alla fase finale della fioritura. Sono felice di ogni varietà, complimenti a chi le ha create! Un abbraccio a tutti

GLF - 2g - 24” mainline OLP 2 - 2g - 20” topped OLP 3 - 2g - 18” topped (and broke 2 branches!) OLP 4 - 2g - 15” topped, LST & super cropped OLP 1 - 500ml x4 - 10” super cropped Little bit of defoliation on bottom and centre. All doing well. Increased water needs. Flowers starting to develop. The OLPs are a week behind because the timer in their tent was flipping back and forth between 12-12 and 18-6 for about 10 days.. ooosie! Moms are being maintained as little bonsai plants in solo cups in my back bedroom near the window with a single 100w panel set to 18-6. Being mostly neglected, infrequent watering, lean fertilizer, heavy defoliation.

Tag 8 : Das umtopfen in 1l Töpfe hat den Pflanzen gut getan sie entwickeln sich weiterhin gut, auf Lichtintensität 50% umgestellt Tag 9 : Lichtintensität auf 60% gestellt langsam erhöhen und beobachten, es bilden sich kleine Kugel Trichome auf den Blättern die sehr gut duften wenn man sie leicht reibt. Gegen 16:00 Uhr das Wasser mit Biobizz CalMag 0.3ml/l versetzt und mit BioBizz Bio Down auf einen PH Wert von 6,4 gebracht, anschließend alle Töpfe befeuchtet und mit kurzer Wartezeit 150ml Wasser pro Topf gegeben was 15% Topfvolumen der 1l Töpfe entspricht, es entsteht kein Drain. Tag 10: Den Pflanzen gefallen die größeren Töpfe und anscheinend auch das PH angepasste Wasser sowie das zusätzliche BioBizz CalMag es wird stetig Blattmasse zugelegt. Tag 11: Die Entwicklung schreitet gut voran, heute um 09:45 Uhr habe ich die Lichtintensität auf 70% erhöht und beobachte wie die Pflanzen reagieren, ich denke morgen wird wieder gegossen, das Gewicht der Töpfe kontrolliere ich mit einer Waage. Tag 12: Heute morgen um 7:30 Uhr jeden Topf gewogen, anschließend befeuchtet und nach einigen Minuten warten Wasser mit einem PH Wert von 6,5 und 0,3ml BioBizz CalMag gegossen. Die Erhöhung der Lichtintensität von 70 % vertragen sie ganz gut aber ich kriege meinen VPD Wert nicht niedriger durch die hohen Temperaturen und geringe Luftfeuchtigkeit die durchs Fenster kommen evtl. muss ich nochmal einen Luftbefeuchter dazu stellen. Tag 13: Alles sieht gut aus, mit dem Luftbefeuchter kann ich den VPD besser regulieren, morgen wird umgetopft und gegossen, beim wiegen der Töpfe waren die Wurzeln schon unten am Topf zu sehen, heute gibt es nichts weiter zu tun. Tag 14: Die Töpfe sind sehr gut durchwurzelt ich denke der Shrooms Wurzelstimulator hat auch dazu beigetragen, eigentlich wollte ich heute in 5,7L Töpfe umtopfen schaffe dies leider nicht aus Zeitmangel. Deswegen ist der Plan die Pflanzen bis morgen weiter durchtrocknen zu lassen und sie ein bisschen mehr zu stressen. Morgen werden dann alle in 5,7L Töpfe gesetzt und ordentlich angegossen. Das ist das Ende der zweiten Woche. Mein Fazit: Es lief bisher alles gut eine Pflanze zeigt an den unteren Blättern einen Nährstoffmangel vielleicht kommt das weil ich sie am Anfang evtl. überwässert habe, trotz der schlechten Temperatur und Luftfeuchtigkeitsverhältnissen die ich durch den Luftbefeuchter seit einigen Tagen besser im Griff habe, haben sich meiner Einschätzung nach alle Pflanzen ganz gut entwickelt. Falls jemand diesen Bericht lesen sollte bin ich gerne froh Tipps und Hinweise zu hören da dies mein erster Grow ist. Morgen nach dem umtopfen gibt es wieder ein Update ;)
