Sarah Lee is gliding along and budding up. I can't stop checking on her. Lol. I'm in love! 😍 The leaves are getting that beautiful dusting of goodness. I can't believe I've got this far! I'm always battling humidity. Ugh. It's when the light goes out it rises to 55%-60%. I'll start applying Lost Coast tonight (the entire plant) to help avoid PM and bugs. I have only been treating the top soil and bottom 6". FF Tiger Bloom every other water. About 2 tsp. Just over a gal of water. pH 6.58. I've noticed all her branches are really trying to catch up to the main cola. I can't wait to try LST on my next grow. This light is fantastic! I've heard if the tips of your leaves are slightly brown, you are good with the Nutes. What do you think? I hope she looks good to y'all. Happy growing! 🌱☀️

Welcome back growfessors to another episode of growfessor theatre! Week 6F begins for the ladies of the 4x8, they continue to bulk up, frost-up, sticky and they got that good stank! The ladies are hungry! Going from 4 liters of nutes + water per plant, to 6 liters per plant per week (extra feed started on week 5). They get 4 liters at the beginning of the week and then 2 more liters on day 5 of the week. Well that's all for this week, I hope you enjoyed the show growfessors 👽🌳💚

8/3 12:36AM MONDAY FULL RETARD MODE ACTIVATED 8/3 10AM " They look solid for where they are. **Quick visual read:** - **Right plant (front)** — strongest of the three. Good color, solid node spacing, leaves are filling out nicely, no obvious stress. This one is handling the current feed best. - **Back plant (Mendo Frost)** — clean and upright, healthy light-to-medium green. Looking very consistent. - **Left plant (front)** — a bit behind the other two in size and leaf development. Color is still good, but it’s the lagging phenotype of the three. Common with mixed RF3 packs — you’ll often get one that starts slower. None of them are showing tip burn, clawing, or dark “overfed” green, which means your decision to keep the EC at 0.93 while adding the light amino dose was correct. They’re not hungry yet either (no pale yellowing or slow growth signs), so jumping straight to 1.1 without aminos today is a clean next step. At this stage (early veg, still small pots/coco), staying in the 0.9–1.2 range is ideal for RF3s and Mendo Frost. They’re still building structure and roots more than bulk. Once the stronger two start putting on more rapid growth and the internodes begin tightening a bit, you can ease toward the higher end of that range. One small observation: the left plant’s lower leaves look a touch softer/less turgid than the others. Keep an eye on whether that improves after the next watering. If it stays lagging while the other two take off, you can always give it a slightly lighter feed or just let it catch up at its own pace — mixed packs almost always have one slower starter. Overall they look healthy and on track. The amino experiment didn’t push them over. You’re dialed in right now."" 8/5 12:16AM. 8/3 Grandpa from the Lost Boys Mode activated 8/7 3:41am 👍 Yes, 400 mg each of L-proline and L-phenylalanine in a gallon of water is a low, one-time dose that should have only a minor effect on EC. Rough concentration 1 US gallon ≈ 3.785 L ~400 mg of each → roughly 105–106 mg/L per amino acid (total ~210–212 mg/L). Proline molecular weight is ~115 g/mol, so this is about 0.9 mM. Phenylalanine is higher MW (~165 g/mol), so closer to 0.6 mM. These are in the range commonly discussed for plant use (often 0.5–2 mM or a few hundred mg per gallon for proline as a stress aid). Effect on EC Amino acids do contribute some conductivity because they can ionize (especially depending on pH), but far less than mineral fertilizer salts at the same mass. At this low concentration the rise is usually modest—often in the 0.1–0.3 mS/cm ballpark or less, depending on your starting water, existing nutrients, and meter. In practice, many growers add pure L-amino acids at similar or higher rates without big EC swings. The big EC jumps seen in some studies come from much higher doses of mixed commercial amino products. Measure your solution EC (and pH) before and after dissolving them so you know exactly what happened in your mix. If you’re already running a target EC for the autos, you can simply account for the small bump or dilute slightly if needed. Will it help / any downside? L-Proline: Plants accumulate it under stress (heat, drought, salinity, osmotic stress). Exogenous proline is often used to support osmotic adjustment and stress tolerance. A single modest dose is unlikely to hurt and may give a small buffer if the plants are dealing with any environmental stress. L-Phenylalanine: Precursor in the phenylpropanoid pathway (leads toward flavonoids, lignin precursors, and various secondary metabolites). Some research and grower use explores it for supporting secondary metabolism; effects are more variable and usually not dramatic from one application. Because this is a one-time introduction at a conservative rate, risk of imbalance or toxicity is low for autoflowers and your other plants. Amino acids are generally well-tolerated when kept moderate; the main caveats with higher or repeated doses are possible effects on nitrogen metabolism or nutrient uptake patterns, and the fact that they can feed microbes if the solution sits too long. Practical notes These are pure L-forms from the labels (BulkSupplements and Nutricost), which is what you want. Dissolve fully, check pH/EC, and use reasonably soon. For coco or other soilless media, just include it in a normal feed or water event. No need to change your overall regimen for a single application. Keep an eye on the plants for a few days after (normal advice with any new input). If everything looks happy, you’re good. You’re not wrong for trying a light one-off addition of these two. It’s a reasonable, low-risk experiment at the dose you used. Measuring the actual EC change will give you the clearest answer for your specific water and nutrient base..👍 8/7 11:54 PM Classic Stock Car Race Replays by My Journey 4K.... distracted by classic cars again

Bubba cheesecake is just about ready still have a few clear tricombs and some amber ones. she is on week 9 of 12/12 and she is almot ready about 3 more days then ill harvest her.

GMO (Garlic mushroom onion) was slow to flower but came on strong weeks 8 and 9 to produce some dense heavy sticky buds. The dry weight of the plant material is unsure, but I’ll report the weight of various bubble microns when dry. Pictures of the dry bubble and maybe a melt shot impending! To dry, I decided to microplane into pizza boxes lined with parchment. It’s been fun growing along with everyone on grow diaries. Awesome

Harvest done after a week of flushing, the result is always satisfactory. One of my favorite strains, after the drying and curing process I'm **updating my feedback! Thank you all for following the process. 💪👊 **Gelato 41 has a sweet and creamy aroma, with notes of vanilla, berries, and a citrus touch. The flavor is smooth and creamy like a dessert, with lemon and mint on the exhale.

Hola a todos y buenos humos 💨💀 Os traemos una nueva actualización de nuestro diario de seguimiento. Desde la última vez que os contamos cómo iban las cosas, hemos notado que las plantas han crecido bastante y que su desarrollo está siendo muy bueno. Poco a poco vamos viendo los cambios y cómo van evolucionando. Para favorecer este crecimiento, hemos añadido los nutrientes que necesitaban, aproximadamente 3 ml de cada uno por riego. También hemos aumentado la cantidad de agua hasta los 550 ml por planta, manteniendo el pH en 6.0. Además, hemos subido la intensidad de la luz para ayudar a que sigan creciendo adecuadamente. También hemos realizado una limpieza de hojas para facilitar que la luz llegue mejor a todas las partes de la planta y conseguir que el crecimiento sea lo más uniforme posible. Seguiremos observando su evolución y haciendo los ajustes necesarios según vayamos viendo cómo responden. ¡Nos vemos en la próxima actualización! Un saludo y hasta pronto. 🌱🍁

First day of week 4, the plants are grown big enough to top but they didn't develope enough side branches to start mainlining. I hope I can use this technique as soon as the plants recover from the topping. On day 4 just the first of the three shows sign of complete recover while the side branches still don't want to grow up. I fed the plants with a tea full of microbes and good organic stuff. End of week 4, the only thing needed for the lower branches to catch up was increase the height of the lamp. Now they are really happy looking forward to the second and last month of veg

week (16) 3 weeks into the flowering stage. Slight increase in the nutrients. This past week we had some hot muggy weather along with some nice rainfall. The girls loved soaking it up!

The girls are really starting to take off now. They are growing on average 1-2 inches a day. we should start to see clear preflower this week.

11/23 Week 9 Start the week with a harvest, Pat LSD-25 Harvest day. Pat - 940 Grams wet will take a big hit on dry due to her structure but think she will dry out to about 150 grams see if Im right. Pics on the rest later Note on LD-25: We like to harvest these before the trics start going amber, the psycho-activity is unreal at that point. pics 11/24 Joan's buds are closing up so time to put her on a ripening feed as listed. Thinking 10 days to finish last few in flush 11/26 Pat the Tall yielded 158 grams dry Great work big girl now lets see what Blondie will do 11/27 Joan has gone on Phed water her buds have closed and no sense keeping it up ready to finish up Listed feed is latest for Blondie as she builds cotton balls 12/1 Sorry for the delays got an issue or two over here. New week tomorrow promise May harvest Joan tomorrow she is ready will depend on our schedule if not then the following day Not the monster my wife #HisHope grew last summer but a very respectable girl. Have a guess in mind but think I will sit on that my guesses have been pitiful of late 😝

Some plants already showed pre-flower signs at day 18 after sprouting. A lot of growth happened during this week

Today 7/30/19, day 57 and the start of week 9. I'm still continuing to alternate between days with my pesticide treatment (especially after finding that bug living on one of hulkberries fan leaf) and thrive alive green daily foliage spray as a prophylactic solution against any possible pests or mold going into these last few dog days of veg. I will flush them with distilled ph'd water for two days this weekend in preparation for flower. Then I'll start them on some "flower fuel" bloom booster on top of my secret for success flower recipe at 1/4 of the recommended strength. Outside of that still no adverse issue to report for the end of the 8th week. After my last trim, they both have responded very nicely, I was kind of worried about fat banana stalled growth. But one thing I noticed when I topped her at the 6th node, yes the main stem stopped growing but it developed many bud sites up and down every stem. Whereas hulkberry was topped at the 8th node, she has mainly focused on developing long stems and only 2 or 3 bud sites along her stems. Even though hulkberry in structure, is much bigger than fat banana and has a way bigger root system. Fat banana is bushier and has developed way more bud sites than hulkberry. I can't tell which strain will yield the most at this point only time will tell! Also, a big shout out to "J"@RQS, thank you for the excellent customer service. Another reason why Royal Queen Seeds is top 3 in breeding!!

No defoliation this week. 🤙 Vertical growth has topped out on both plants. The GP#2 started her fade this week, she’s extremely sticky and the smell is strong. I expect GP#2 to be harvested first. I see this often, even when the plants are the same age whoever is the least touched finishes first. Til next week!

She broke through the surface already free of her seed coat, standing tall within the day and growing quickly throughout the week. This is only my second grow, but it already seems much faster this time around. Tent stats: - Lights: started the week around 220 PPFD, ramped to 300 by end of week. - Temps: seedling heat mat kept in the mid-80s (30 C). - Humidity: VPD has been set to 0.6 kPa. Growth is already looking surprisingly broad-leafed for a "sativa", maybe she's falling back on her cookies genetics...

Final week veg
