Day 28 update: I think the light was too close to the plant, so I increased the distance to 50cm. It should help with the stretch of lower branches. Then I switched to Advanced Nutrients feed chart, adding 4ml/L of A+B formula and 2ml/L of other additives (for every liter in the reservoir). This made the ppm go crazy. Let’s see what happens, but I don’t like these unclear instructions. Ph Perfect keeps the ph stable for just a few hours, and they don’t say anything about ppm. Bad! Day 30 update: LST session + defoliation on fan leaves that were hiding lower branches. Day 32 update: transplanted to her final 20L AirPot (from a 5L one)! Added some michorrizhae as well where I placed the plant. Since I got a bigger pot, now it’s 250ml of solution every hour, instead of the previous 125ml. Day 34 update: immediately stopped using Advanced Nutrients feed chart (from their calculator) because I had that crazy 3100 ppm in the reservoir and noticed a small sign of overfeeding on a leaf in the top. I removed part of the solution and added tap water back until I got about 800 ppm. NOT HAPPY! Day 35: LST! Again

Well, Well, it has been a fun and informative run with these ladies. The smell is an extremely pungent fruity rotten pineapple.... it is amazing. Plant 1 and Plant 2 couldn't have been more different, but the smell is the same on them. I am really looking forward to a slow dry and slow cure on these. I am going to let them run out a few more days and see if there is any more fattening and monitor the trichomes. Thanks all! Harvest update in a few weeks once everything is dry and then I'll do a cure update a few weeks after that, going to be hard to be patient on smoking this.

Yellowing advancing brow spots, some leafs drying and falling off. One girl I will flush tomorrow to cut on the weekend. The other 2 have more one week or 2. Is these yellowing hurt on the stage the girls are?

My permanent marker plants are looking really interesting! The short and stocky one with the purple leaves is super vibrant. I love that pop of color against the green of the other plants. It's a little different from the taller plant, which has this really cool stacked-up look to it. I'm curious to see if those stacked-up leaves will change color too. The past few weeks have been so beautiful, watching the plants grow and change. It's amazing how something so small and fragile can turn into something so strong and vibrant. Now that they're getting ready to bloom, it feels a little bittersweet. I'm so excited to see the finished product, but I'll definitely miss having them around while they're growing.

Bonjour Ă  tous les padawans et les maĂźtres jedis Jour42 ma plante entre bien en floraison je pratique sur elle une defolliation pour permettre aux tĂȘtes de prendre la lumiĂšre La floraison des plantes de cannabis La plante de cannabis passe par diffĂ©rentes Ă©tapes de vie avant de parvenir Ă  la rĂ©colte. Ces Ă©tapes sont : la germination, la prĂ©-croissance, la croissance et la floraison. Pour les autofloraisons il n'est pas nĂ©cessaire d'avoir de changer le cycle de lumiĂšre elle entre en floraison automatiquement voilĂ  d'oĂč elle tient son nom "d'autofloraison" L'origine de l'auto-floraison vient de la sous-espĂšce "cannabis sativa ruderalis" , qui Ă  l'origine produit de trĂšs faibles niveaux de THC. C'est en croisant cette variĂ©tĂ© de marijuana avec d'autres qui produisent des niveaux de THC plus Ă©levĂ©s qu'Ă  vu le jour ce magnifique compromis que sont les variĂ©tĂ©s auto-fleurissantes avec des taux de THC trĂšs satisfaisants. En parallĂšle, cela a permis d'amĂ©liorer la production de ces variĂ©tĂ©s, qui initialement Ă©taient exceptionnellement basse. Pour des rĂ©sultats optimaux, en culture Outdoor (extĂ©rieur), je recommande que la germination des graines de marijuanaAuto-flo se fasse entre avril et aoĂ»t. En culture Indoor(intĂ©rieur), la photopĂ©riode idĂ©ale que ce soit pour la croissance comme pour la floraison est de 20h de lumiĂšre. N'oubliez pas que ces graines ne sont pas tributaires de la photopĂ©riode pour passer en floraison. Il est prĂ©fĂ©rable d'utiliser des pots d'une capacitĂ© de 10 Ă  20L dĂšs le dĂ©but, Ă©tant donnĂ© que leur cycle de vie est rĂ©duit, les auto-flo n'ent pas besoin de plus de volume pour se dĂ©velopper. Vu sa petite taille (et la discrĂ©tion) elle fait l'objet d'un bon choix pour la culture de cannabis sur balcons. La premiĂšre variĂ©tĂ© de Lowryder auto-floraison a Ă©tĂ© créé Ă  partir de cannabis indica sativa croisĂ© avec des gĂ©nĂ©tiques de cannabis sativa rudelaris par la banque de graines de marijuana "The Joint Doctor". Puis vinrent la White Dwarf de "Buddha Seeds", la Roadrunnerde "Dinafem", l' Auto Stoned d' "Autofem", la Speed Devil de "Sweet Seeds" , la Maxi Gom de "Grassomatic", la Flash, la Gnomo de Kannabiaet bien d'autres. Jour42 defolliation (video) Avant toute chose n'oublions pas de bien dĂ©sinfecter ses outils et bien ce laver les mains. Quesque la defolliation ? LES CULTIVATEURS AMATEURS, PRENEZ GARDE, MAIS NE PRENEZ PAS PEUR La dĂ©foliation consiste Ă  retirer les feuilles des plants de cannabis en intĂ©rieur afin d'accroĂźtre le rendementfinal. Le cultivateur amateur doit faire preuve de vigilance lorsqu'il commence Ă  appliquer cette technique de taille. MalgrĂ© le dĂ©bat sans fin entre ceux qui prĂŽnent cette technique et ceux qui la dĂ©nigre, il n'y aucune raison pour qu'un amateur ne s'y essaie pas afin de voir si ça lui convient ou non. COMMENT DÉFOLIER Que vous tailliez les feuilles ou les branches des plants de cannabis, il vaut mieux utiliser un sĂ©cateur stĂ©rile qui est confortable en main. Arracher des feuilles Ă  la main manque de finesse et engendre souvent par accident, l'arrachement des couches d'une tige en plus de la feuille. L'objectif principal de la dĂ©foliation est de permettre une meilleure pĂ©nĂ©tration de la lumiĂšre et de promouvoir la production de plus grosses tĂȘtes. Les feuilles Ă©ventails qui font de l'ombre doivent ĂȘtre retirĂ©es. Tailler la tige principale et/ou les pousses secondaires n'est pas de la dĂ©foliation. La rĂšgle d'or lorsque vous donnez Ă  vos plantes un rafraĂźchissement est de commencer avec les feuilles nourriciĂšres les plus grandes et les plus larges, en taillant du bas vers le haut. Il est important de retirer les feuilles stratĂ©giquement et non pas au hasard. Pensez Ă©galement qu'il vous faut limiter votre rafraĂźchissement Ă  approximativement 10 Ă  20 % des feuilles totales de votre pied. Il est trĂšs facile de s'emporter durant la taille et de se retrouver avec des plantes chauves. Un excĂšs de taille de feuilles empĂȘchera la photosynthĂšse et paralysera vos plants. QUAND FAUT-IL DÉFOLIER Il est assez rare d'appliquer la dĂ©foliation comme seule technique pour obtenir un fort rendement. La taille des feuilles est gĂ©nĂ©ralement associĂ©e Ă  d'autres mĂ©thodes de tailles et de palissage pour un meilleur rendement telles que le topping ou Ă©tĂȘtage, le FIMming, le LST, le manifolding, le supercropping et le ScrOG. Les cultivateurs utilisant la mĂ©thode ScrOG auront besoin de retirer toutes les croissances infĂ©rieures ainsi que les feuilles et les tiges se trouvant sous le filet. Les plants de cannabis peuvent ĂȘtre dĂ©foliĂ©s dĂšs lors qu'ils sont passĂ©s de la phase de plantule vers la phase de croissance vĂ©gĂ©tative. Cependant, il est recommandĂ© aux cultivateurs amateurs de laisser aux plantes 1 Ă  2 semaines de croissance vĂ©gĂ©tative avant de s'attaquer Ă  la dĂ©foliation de celles-ci. De plus, certaines variĂ©tĂ©s sont plus sensibles Ă  la taille que d'autres et de ce fait, seront plus stressĂ©es par la taille des feuilles. Surveillez minutieusement le comportement de vos plants aprĂšs la taille. Une pĂ©riode de convalescence de minimum 3 Ă  7 jours avant de recommencer la dĂ©foliation est fortement recommandĂ©e pour Ă©viter trop de stress aux plants. Les cultivateurs peuvent Ă©galement dĂ©folier pendant la phase de floraison, ce qui permettra Ă  l'Ă©nergie de la plante d'ĂȘtre concentrĂ©e vers la production de tĂȘtes tout en limitant l'ombre et l'excĂšs d'humiditĂ©. NĂ©anmoins, il est important de ne pas dĂ©folier trop tard sous peine de simplement blesser ses plants inutilement. LES AVANTAGES DE LA DÉFOLIATION Évidemment, l'avantage numĂ©ro un de la dĂ©foliation, c'est l'augmentation du potentiel de rendement de cette technique de taille pour tous types de cannabis allant de la photopĂ©riode aux variĂ©tĂ©s autofloraison. Ce n'est pas un secret que les fleurs qui reçoivent plus de lumiĂšres deviennent plus grandes et larges que celles dissimulĂ©es dans l'ombre des feuilles. De plus, retirer les feuilles intĂ©rieures des plants touffus aide Ă  prĂ©venir toutes menaces de moisissure. Les plants trĂšs feuillus avec un feuillage intĂ©rieur dense produiront une quantitĂ© importante de tĂȘtes pop-corn. Dans le pire des cas, les branches de tĂȘtes et les tĂȘtes qui sont denses succomberont au pourrissement. Si vous observez des gouttes d'eau se former sur la surface des feuilles, il est grand temps de penser Ă  faire de la dĂ©foliation. LibĂ©rer la zone infĂ©rieure et mĂ©diane des feuilles est un excellent moyen d'amĂ©liorer la circulation de l'air. LES DÉSAVANTAGES DE LA DÉFOLIATION Les plants de cannabis en intĂ©rieur bĂ©nĂ©ficient de la dĂ©foliation pour deux raisons. La premiĂšre est parce qu'ils reçoivent la lumiĂšre d'une source stationnaire au-dessus d'eux, et la deuxiĂšme est parce que les conditions environnementales sont contrĂŽlĂ©es par le cultivateur et non MĂšre Nature. Les plants d'extĂ©rieurs eux, n'y gagnent pas beaucoup, car les cas Ă©chĂ©ants se vĂ©rifient pour eux. Le soleil traverse le ciel, illuminant sur sa route, diffĂ©rentes portions de la plante de son lever Ă  son coucher. Les cultivateurs en extĂ©rieur n'ont pas besoin de manipuler les plantes afin qu'elles se dĂ©veloppent en adoptant une structure plate puisque le soleil est infiniment plus puissant que n'importe quelle lampe de culture et qui plus est, il est toujours en mouvement. Tailler les feuilles des plants extĂ©rieurs les rend Ă©galement plus vulnĂ©rables aux conditions humides et brise leurs barriĂšres naturelles contres les nuisibles. De nombreux cultivateurs d'intĂ©rieur peuvent, et malheureusement, c'est souvent le cas, rĂ©duire le rendement final Ă  cause d'une dĂ©foliation faite au mauvais moment et/ou excessive. Tailler les plantules n'est pas conseillĂ© et engendre souvent des plants nains. Scalper les plants matures est encore pire, et au lieu d'obtenir de longues branches de tĂȘtes, vous obtiendrez probablement encore moins de fleurs. De mĂȘme, tailler des plants malades ou en mauvaise santĂ© Ă  n'importe quelle pĂ©riode de la croissance risque de paralyser la croissance plutĂŽt que d'encourager la formation de fleurs denses. Jour44 Arrosage une fois sur 2 topmax de biobizz Jour46 arrosage avec de l'eau ph6.3 Ă  laquelle j'ajoute 0.8g par litre d'eau de feeding enhancer greenhouse. Jour47 lĂ©ger arrosage.

Greetings, fellow cultivators and botanical enthusiasts! Buckle up for the Week 6 Veg Report, where the saga of Jealousy unfolds with even more green grandeur. It's been an absolute thrill, a week of excitement, and a dash of horticultural finesse. First things first, let's talk about the latest addition to the Jealousy fanfare – the installation of a Scrog net. Oh yes, my friends, we've entered the world of controlled chaos, guiding our leafy companion into a magnificent dance beneath the net. It's like creating a green tapestry of foliage, where each leaf has its own place in the botanical ballet. This intricate web not only adds a visual spectacle to our growing sanctuary but also serves a practical purpose. It encourages the growth of an even canopy, ensuring that every bud site gets its fair share of light. It's like orchestrating a symphony of sunlight, allowing Jealousy to bask in the full glory of the grow room spotlight. And speaking of spotlight, let's talk about a little nutrient boost I introduced to our plant banquet – CalMg. It's like giving our green diva a backstage pass to the nutrient extravaganza. Calcium and magnesium play crucial roles in plant health, contributing to cell structure, enzyme activation, and overall nutrient uptake. It's the secret sauce for ensuring our Jealousy is getting that extra touch of botanical TLC. Now, let's dive into the art of bending and twisting. It's not a yoga class for our plant, but rather a strategic maneuver to shape and guide her growth. By gently bending and twisting the stems, we're encouraging an even distribution of energy and promoting the development of multiple bud sites. It's like teaching our green companion a choreographed routine, ensuring she takes center stage in the grand spectacle of growth. As we revel in the green symphony of Week 6, let's extend our heartfelt thanks to Zamnesia and Plagron for being the guiding lights on this verdant journey. Their support is the cornerstone of our horticultural adventure. A round of applause to the Grow Diaries community – your shared experiences and camaraderie continue to elevate our collective knowledge. To my fellow contestants and growers, may your plants continue to thrive, and may the joy of cultivation be a constant companion. Here's to a week of Scrog magic, nutrient symphonies, and the artful dance of bending and twisting. Stay green, stay inspired, and keep cultivating those dreams! As always, thank you all for stopping by, for the love and for it all. This journey of mine would just not be the same without you guys. The love and support are very much appreciated, and I feel honored and blessed with you all in my life !!! With true love comes happiness. Always believe in yourself and always do things expecting nothing in return, with an open heart. Be a giver, and the universe will respond in ways you can’t even dream of . Friendly reminder: all you see here is pure research and for educational purposes only. Genetics - Jelousy @Zamnesia Nutrients @Plagron Light - @viparspectra P2000 Room size - 3x3 - 0,9x0,9

Today is the 1st day of 2nd week of flowering. I've put the net on them on 20.01. Started the autopots on 18th. They are well rooted. The aptus startbooster is really potent, roots are poking out of the medium with beautiful micro hair. Never had it before. The stems are crazy thick, also I think thanks to regulator. On 22.01 Ive started the air pump supplying airdomes. I have the lowest EC ever on aptus. Right now around 1.0. But still get a tiny little bit of tip burn one a few plants. Let's see how it goes.

Day 42-49 (Day 42) Just watered today but couldn’t go until runoff because I didn’t have enough RO. I forgot to add the probiotic too. Nonetheless, everything is starting to recover from those weird deficiencies and is looking super healthy. Plants are really bushing out now too. I had to top the zkittlez and BBB#3 again as they are just getting too big. Nothing is definitively showing sex yet but I’m seeing clues. Shouldn’t be long now. If I get 4 females or less I will use 10gal pots, 5-7 fem 5gal pots and 8-12 3gal pots. I need to stop overwatering. Even though it doesn’t look too overwatered, it is much better to water a little bit each day at lights on. This will help keep the humidity down as well as deliver optimal oxygen to the roots speeding up plant growth considerably. (Day 45) Gave an EM1 spray down today. The beneficial bacteria is said to overpopulate surfaces so powdery mildew and septoria can’t form. Something seems to be really working as I haven’t seen any yet. (Day 47) I sealed up the tent and am running both dehumidifiers and it’s keeping the RH around a safe 70% night and day which is right on track with VPD. Plants are all looking super healthy. Deficiencies have pretty much all cleared up. Cold nights I’m running 600w and warmer nights I’ll run 400w. I was asking around Instagram about white ash/good burn and a few different people assured me it has to do with mineral content of the soil. I was told the three best products for clean ash is glacial rock dust/basalt, oyster shell flour and langbeinite. I already have langbeinite so I’ll grab the other amendments today and top dress. I grabbed the amendments and also got some Destiny Organics dark matter super soil, coco and some beneficial nematodes. Top dressed each amendment except langbeinite and mulched in some coco coir. (Day 48) My shelf came in today and I think it may be to big for the 4x4 tent. Each square is 12”, not the 11.8” advertised. I could wipe down my flower room and set it up in there which would give my plants a good adjustment to the new lights before I flip. Or I could set it up in the veg tent but that seems like a huge hassle as the need to be moved and flipped soon anyway. I wish they would show sex already so I can toss out the plants I’m not keeping. For flower I am considering starting over fresh with the new Destiny soil and coco mixed with some amendments. I’m concerned that my current mix might be too hot. I could also dilute it with the Destiny/coco mix. Those little bulb mites that came in with the worm castings are a little concerning as well. Some say they are just beneficial composters aka “worm bin mites” and others are telling me they’re predatory bulb mites which destroy crops like garlic. I’m leaning towards beneficial composters but in another grow I watched them devour a seedling before it sprouted. Gotta check the current roots but the plants aren’t quite ready to be transplanted. (Day 49) Got everything in the flower tent wiped down and sprayed with alcohol then EM1 few hours later. Got the shelf set up and got all my temp controls set up and running. I put the controllers outside the tent this time and will patch any light leaks. Gave a lite compost tea at 830ppm and a velokelp foliar spray at 6ml/L. This will be the last veg feeding before I transplant into their final containers on the 31st. BCTG#2 is a confirmed male and I pulled him. No one else is showing definitively. Roots looked super healthy with very few mites but I’m not 100% convinced they’re all clean. I saw a few mites on leaves today too. Saw a bit of droop after the move but they all look happy just a few hours later. Took a few clones from some sucker branches on a few of the blackberries.

Week 6 update: What up Grow family. These testers are growing fast and strong. Where in week 6 now and the swelling and ripening of flowers are going amazing. Still feeding 500ml/16oz daily as I've found that's the sweet spot for 3gal fabric pots for these. I'd say these probably have about 2 weeks left until they'll be finished. All in all Happy Growing.

Things looking almost perfect other than INSECTS!!!!!đŸ˜± girls have been sprayed top to toe. I’ll continue to observe. But yes other than that great. The gelato are very big plants going outwards and upwards, all possible flowering spots seem to be taking and slowly covering in pistils😍😍😍 Fliwering has commenced âœŒïžđŸ»đŸ˜ŹâœŒïžđŸ» The plants really bulking out now looking good and strong. And really are covered in flowers. They will get a new flowering light and a little more space to grow tomorrow 😍😍😍😍 hopefully great tings will follow. I’ll be using New Millennium Decision on the girls for a few days in the next couple of days, they really are as tall as they should go.đŸ€” New light in and tings looking good. After a couple of days under the new light the plants seem more than happy. It’s quite a slim line light too so I’m afforded a little extra room up top in case da girls decide to stretch anymore. Things seem to be settling down now and pistils are multiplying quicker by the day. Got a pleasant smell coming from the stems and leaves, very soft and non aggressive possibly a softer take on GSC coming through, but my nose although huge isn’t that good at picking up subtleties in the aromas it grabs a hold of. The girls really are looking strong and vibrant and seem to be wearing their new found flowers well.
