F44, Hice una última defoliación pequeña de hojas abanico, estoy regando más seguido, día por medio, con una EC más baja ya que quedan pocos días para la cosecha, los cogollos presentan mucha resina, lo más resinoso que he cultivado hasta ahora, un olor muy interesante, las cookies tienen olor frutal y con algo de bencina, las stash un olor más cítrico y a pino. Todos los tricomas están lechosos, solo hay una planta que en su cogollo principal tiene un par de tricomas ámbar.

10/19: I fed today. Only one plant has any signs of deficiency..an Orange Sherbet that needs more Mg than everybody else. Serious stink now! Wow..gonna have to order another carbon filter.. I shot a little video of the soil remediation amendments I'm using these days. This will be the first time I use the Coast of Maine Lobster Compost. I usually use a different brand with added biochar and mycorrhizae, but I wanted to see what all the fuss is about the efficacy of lobster compost. Recipe: About 50 gallons of soil, previously flushed with TPS Liquidsoil to re-establish the microbial population. 1 cu ft - Coast of Maine lobster compost 15 lbs - Earthworm castings 4.5 lbs - Microgrow granular inoculant 4 lbs - Bokashi 4 lbs - Dr Earth Veggie, Tomato, and Herb organic fertilizer 2 lbs. - Nectar for the Gods - One Shot granular fertilizer 2 lbs - granular humic acid plus molasses 1/2 lb - texas greensand 1/2 lb - azomite 1/2 lb - dolomite 10/20: Halle Berry(Blackberry A) is getting soooo fat..maybe 20" in circumference! I spotted another couple of nanners on the Strawberry Pie and decided to leave them to do their thing..might be some very interesting hybrids as a result. It occurs to me that it's almost time to start germinating the next batch of beans...👍 10/23: Fed them and rotated the edge plants. Switched to Cha Ching. 10/24: Halle Berry is foxtailing a bit ever since I upped the wattage in the tiny tent. She's fading nicely..I'll probably flush her towards the end of next week. I started germinating the next batch of beans today, so I'm gonna need these bitches to hurry the fuck up now.. 10/26: Fed them and rearranged a little bit. I dialed back the ONE, increased CaMg and Sweet & Sticky. I flushed Halle Berry with 8 gallons of warm water and LiquidSoil. She's ripe, but I'll let her go another few days.

She looks a bit deranged at first sight no doubt maybe u feel a little uncomfortable but let me tell you this girl is a moose on the loose. she looks like a statue of medusa the lady with snakes for hair and her long lost children But a few inches below those twizzler heads is some solid nugget. Smell like wet mangos as it should and is sticky as a fly trap. The buds are ridiculous in size the main one is as wide as my head. The lowers and side branches are actually somewhat normal compared to the others. There's no way of knowing the quality and production until harvest but if I can trim her up nicely into small nugs I think we'll be aight. Started lowering ppms this week but it's hard to tell when she is gunna ripen up with the foxtails. Right now the trichs are mostly cloudy with some clear and no amber I just can't imagine they can get bigger than what they are now. Will need to run this one back at some point and try to avoid the tails.

*Pre-flowers have micro trichomes upon formation, LOL. Based on my early observation, I predict that these will be frosty frosty on the trichomes. Added 20lbs of black lava rock as mulch, raising soil temp around 1 and a half degrees to 72.8F. Some nice little bud formations are creeping up already. Nice little foliar spray of some aminos to the underside of the leaf. Hard to guage or know how much the aminos help, but after reading how energy intensive it is for the plant to make them from scratch its something I feel I need to do as a habit. An EC (Electrical Conductivity) meter, one that's made for the soil, it's so useful, as it indirectly indicates soil moisture as well as salt mineral nutrient levels. Just pop your metre stick in the soil and if ec is low, then it's time to water. Once there is water to assist in the conduction of electricity, the EC" will kick back up. 0.3-1.8, if it stays low, then you know it's time to add more mineral salt ferts! While Electrical Conductivity primarily indicates the overall salt content in soil, pH provides information about the relative proportion of cations (positively charged ions) in the soil's salt capacity. High EC signifies a higher salt concentration, while pH reflects the balance of cations like calcium, magnesium, potassium, ammoniacal nitrogen, sodium, and hydrogen. Smaller leaves have less surface area for stomata to occupy, so the stomata are packed more densely to maintain adequate gas exchange. Smaller leaves might have higher stomatal density to compensate for their smaller size, potentially maximizing carbon uptake and minimizing water loss. Environmental conditions like light intensity and water availability can influence stomatal density, and these factors can affect leaf size as well. Leaf development involves cell division and expansion, and stomatal differentiation is sensitive to these processes. In essence, the smaller leaf size can lead to a higher stomatal density due to the constraints of available space and the need to optimize gas exchange for photosynthesis and transpiration. In the long term, UV-B radiation can lead to more complex changes in stomatal morphology, including effects on both stomatal density and size, potentially impacting carbon sequestration and water use. In essence, UV-B can be a double-edged sword for stomata: It can induce stomatal closure and potentially reduce stomatal size, but it may also trigger an increase in stomatal density as a compensatory mechanism. It is generally more efficient for gas exchange to have smaller leaves with a higher stomatal density, rather than large leaves with lower stomatal density. This is because smaller stomata can facilitate faster gas exchange due to shorter diffusion pathways, even though they may have the same total pore area as fewer, larger stomata Sugars, classified as carbohydrates, are composed of the elements carbon (C), hydrogen (H), and oxygen (O). They are characterized by the general formula (CH2O)n, where 'n' represents the number of carbon atoms. The most basic units of sugars, called monosaccharides, have this ratio of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. For example, glucose and fructose, both monosaccharides, have the formula C6H12O6. The reality of your typical plant. After harvest, with all water remove,d you are left with. (Ballpark) Mother-nutrients: Carbon 47%, Oxygen 43%, Hydrogen 4%. Macro-nutrients: Nitrogen 3%, Phosphorus1%, Potassium1%, Calcium1%, Magnesium0.5%, Sulfur0.5%. Micro-nutrients: All the rest combined 1% Nothing good can happen in a soil that can't breathe. The aerobic zone in soil is crucial. Microorganisms can break down sugars into their constituent atoms, though they don't typically do so completely to the individual elemental level (carbon, hydrogen, oxygen) in one step. Microorganisms utilize sugars through metabolic pathways like glycolysis and fermentation, converting them into simpler molecules like pyruvate and then potentially to other compounds like lactic acid, ethanol, or carbon dioxide, releasing energy in the process. Glycolysis: This is a central pathway where a glucose molecule (a common sugar) is broken down into two molecules of pyruvate. This process generates some ATP (energy) for the cell. Fermentation: If oxygen is limited, some microorganisms can ferment pyruvate, producing various end products like lactic acid (in lactic acid fermentation), ethanol and carbon dioxide (in alcoholic fermentation), or other organic acids. Further Breakdown: The products of glycolysis and fermentation can be further broken down through other metabolic pathways, potentially leading to the release of carbon dioxide and water, and the extraction of more energy. Not Always to Atoms: While some microorganisms can completely oxidize sugars to carbon dioxide and water, releasing all their energy, others may stop at intermediate stages, producing various organic compounds. Role of Enzymes: Microorganisms use specific enzymes to catalyze each step in these breakdown pathways. In summary, while microorganisms don't typically reduce sugars to individual atoms in one go, they break them down into simpler molecules, releasing energy and potentially forming new compounds as part of their metabolism. In conditions of high CO2 concentration, the pH of a solution or system will decrease, becoming more acidic. Conversely, low CO2 concentrations lead to an increase in pH, making the solution more alkaline or basic. This relationship is due to the chemical reactions involving CO2 and water, which produce carbonic acid and influence the concentration of hydrogen ions, ultimately determining the pH

02/23/2022 Lots of stretching this week,not much to say so I let the pics and videos talk for them selves🙏🏻 Enjoy Grape Skunk tall and lanky one I'm loving! I will number her for future reference. Biscotti Skunk has some droopy leaves, it's watering day.

She’s a bit of a mess after changing res for a flush , will need to sort out something easier next time . Also wish I had scrog to make better use of this little light , Day 83 started a flush , will part harvest in a few days as I’m going away, buds could be better they are somewhat sticky pistils look ready , Ordered a loupe a little late . has been a good learning experience, Notes - don’t over do nutes early - change res more frequently - try lollipop and use a scrog - invest in a higher watt light for yield and tighter bud , - don’t grow near summer heat major issue , autumn and spring more ideal

Bonjour à tous les padawans et les maîtres jedis La semaine 4 est déjà là! Décidément cette plante est vraiment exceptionnelle! Elle représente la force et j'en suis fier 😍 Je me donne pour defi que durant mon LST je fasse faire au tronc un tour sur lui meme. Ma plante est saine le LST ce passe relativement bien je l'ajuste tout les jour je le combine avec la technique du pincage d'Apex cela me permettra d'avoir une canopé plus homogène donc une meilleure pénétration lumineuse et par conséquent un meilleur rendement. Le pinçage est une pratique courante en horticulture. Beaucoup de cultivateurs l'utilisent pour améliorer le rendement de leurs plantations cannabiques ou autres. Il est souvent question de 'taille' des bourgeons apicaux. Cette taille se pratique également mais il n'est plus alors, à proprement parler, question de pinçage. A l'instar d'une taille, le pinçage va permettre de stimuler le développement des ramifications tout en préservant les sommités en vue de la floraison. Il est très utile pour uniformiser une canopée. Pour réaliser le pinçage, il vous suffit de presser 'fermement' la tige [entre le pouce et l'index] aux environs de l'apex jusqu'à sentir un léger 'crAck'. Cela aura pour résultat d'endommager les vaisseaux impliqués dans la circulation de la sève [situés dans le pourtour de la tige], la tige conserve toutefois une certaine rigidité. Pour obtenir le même résultat, il est également possible de vriller légèrement la tige sur elle-même. L'interruption du circuit d'alimentation entre le ou les apex et le reste du plant va provoquer un déséquilibre hormonal qui aura pour conséquence le développement des ramifications antérieures au point de pinçage. Jour 25 j'arrose mon pot normalement avec un quart de son volume en eau toujours avec un PH de 6.3 à cette eau j'ajoute 0.7 gramme de greenhouse feeding enhancer pour favoriser son développement racinaire. Par la suite je n'aurai plus qu'à ajuster mon LST jusqu'au stretch et surveiller mon arrosage, Je pincerai mes apex suivant la pousse de la plante pour uniformiser la canopé. Jour 26 à force de patience et de délicatesse j'ai réussi le défi que je me suis fixé en faisant faire au tronc un tour sur lui meme (photo jour 26) ce défi ma permis d'améliorer grandement la technique du LST. Au-delà de ça cela ma permis de donné au tronc une structure en forme de colonne vertébrale ce qui a pour conséquence une meilleure pénétration lumineuse et une belle canopé homogène. Que la force soit avec vous 💪

Consider 14 weeks the flowering process itself at when i report i cut it also forced me to do the taste to something too fresh - ? So Consider this a final thoughts post as i wanted to show i slashed them,all at once as i was noticed that were on their limits on time range for a balace between not over ripe the g13 and not let mature enough santa bilbo chamos , it can be very easy to reveal what where each one as they were fuck very stable between them, that uniformity com from very stable bank indeed so fuck i eager to report & fly on some old school shit itself , and shit, this is fuck a sativa and indica differences so clear and by their own simple yet remarcable smell punch from dope lemon demon & sweet og hash ou that are refining from what stated last week & outperforming my own personal previous growof them personal SUCESS & SOPA DE MACACO & BIG GAS LEAKS N BIG DICK ENERGY 👌 . STILL A LOT TO IMPROVE HOMIES & I WILL DERIVE TO OTHER GROW TRY / FAIL / REPEAT & REPORT AF AS I CAN BE FOND OF THIS TIPE OF JOURNAL as on my time, were useful when searching from some previous insight on some grow experiment , or smoke reference as well, every shit can help even and sweet bless of autotranslate as well !

Everything has gone really well up till now , She is start too show the beginning of pre flower , I wasn't expecting that for a couple of weeks so not sure if this is normal ? But she is growing fast and strong , I picked of a few select large leaves that where coving the side branches , but very minimal , mabey one or two leaves of each plant , and also pulled down the branches too help with light getting down into the center of the girl ,

Woche 7 Die Mimosa Fast von 00 Seeds Bank kommt langsam in die letzte Phase wo die Blüten einiges an Gewicht zulegen sollten. Soweit geht es den Mimosa auch weiter gut. Die Blüten bilden sich weiter aus, werden dicker und verharzter. Erstaunlicher weise haben die Pflanzen vom geringen abstand der LED Lampe (EVO6-150) immer noch keine negativen Auswirkung oder Schäden. Am Dünger habe ich in dieser Woche nix verändert. Ich denke nächste Woche werde ich den Dünger noch mal für ca. 2 Wochen anpassen.

The gorilla zkittlez is branching out and pushing up real nice.. the clones of the plant route well especially outdoors in humid environments with hotter temperatures.. we just got out of a heat wave of up to a hundred degrees Fahrenheit with the night temperatures around 80 degrees Fahrenheit.. the weather was dry hot humid and sunny..

- Day 59 A new week already! Buds are fluffing up nicely, they look like they are getting very dense. There is some more leaves yellowing, which is clearly because of N deficiency. Hopefully that bio-grow boost I gave her yesterday will get her a bit greener again soon. I've been trying to go more gentle with the bio-grow this run because my previous grow has dark clawing leaves tips all over at the end of the grow, as I was giving too much. But it seems like now I was giving too little. 😬Note to self: next grow start with lower doses like this grow, but build up when stretch starts to happen. Day 61 Pot was dry again, right on time! Gave her 2.6L today (6.4 ph) containing Calmag, bio-grow, bio-bloom & top-max. Did some light defoliation, mostly got rid of the yellow leaves. Those buds are really fattening up now! Day 62 I lowered the lights down a bit, as the leaves seem to be able to take it. Lowered it down to 29cm, top buds are now getting a bit over 1000 PPFD Day 64 She is still drinking a lot, pot was dry again. Gave her 2.1L today containing bio-grow, bio-bloom, top-max, bio-heaven, alg-a-mic & acti-vera. Day 65 Looking good! I can tell the buds are very dense when I gave them a squeeze. Gonna try and make my first trichome pics as we go towards the final weeks.
