Anfang woche 3 in flow und fangen schon an richtig geil zu duften.๐Ÿ‘Œ๐Ÿ’š Hรคtte mit etwas mehr strech gerechnet. Aber is auch gut so wie es is.๐Ÿ˜…๐Ÿ˜… da ich im sommer eh immer gern mehr platz zur lampe habe. Bin bis jetzt echt zufrieden und gespannt wo die reise mit diesen ladys noch hingeht. Die vitalsten und saubersten stecklinge (weil alle 2-3 monate im labor getestet) gibts wie immer hier bei ROOTS-FARMS. The best in austria and maybe in europe

Week 1 and the first round of testing for this recent new cross. The F1 generation of Northern Spice. Germination was a full 100% with varying degrees of development across 3 days in the towel. Oddly however, about half of the beans cracked the shell head first with their cotelydons. Stability is always suspect with F1s anyway, but this kind of sampling, this early is concerning somewhat. Weโ€™ll see where it goes. On another topic, we also made some big changes to the grow method this cycle. Weโ€™ve moved over to a grow system by the bucket company. Fairly similar to the Dutch bucket design, just without the small reservoir in each bucket that acts as an additional insurance policy. So far, sheโ€™s purrโ€™n like a kitten๐Ÿ‘Œ. Strain details Sheโ€™s a mix of a particularly strong Northern Lights, mixed with a Spicy Bitch sativa hybrid. The hope is that weโ€™ll be able to combine the overtly narcotic effects in the NL and mellow it out somewhat with the quality daytime sativa effects found in the SB. Both strains feature numerous grower qualities. Both parents possessed vigour and resiliency, the SB particularly colourful in late flower.

Estas cepas son las mas avanzadas con diferencia, estan engordando las flores super rapidas y vaya pinta que tiene!! Estoy casi seguro que van a ser las mas productivas. A partir de ahora las regare solo con agua con un PH de 6

Allright! After the suspected light stress last week, the plants are in their second day of 18/6 light schedule and it looks like they are recovering. The front-left plant's upper leafs seem to be straightening out and overall the plants look healthier than last week ๐Ÿ‘Œ. I plan to measure the light intensity, but as things look now, there were two plants that were more susceptible to stress from the LED lights. It's not what you want in a grow, but it has taught me a valuable lesson. Don't just blindly assume a plant can handle 100% of the grow light in the third week โœŒ๏ธโ˜˜๏ธ In the end I don't think it affected the grow that much. The plant on the left corner in the back is a bit taller compared to the rest, but all plants look healthy and ready to start blooming! I have applied some LST clips on the side branches of the tallest plant. This guides the branches sideways and creates a more open structure. You can check them out at https://www.royalqueenseeds.com/growing/533-bending-clips.html ๐ŸŒฟ๐ŸŒฟ๐ŸŒฟ Mid-week update The plants have grown very fast this week and now they're all in bloom โœŒ๏ธ Because of the fast growth, I've removed some of the fanleafs in the canopy, and fan leafs and small branches in the lower parts of the plants. I use the leafs for tea with liquorice in the morning and at dinnertime I chop them up for a mixed salad. The taste is really good and raw Cannabis is super healty as well.

The hairs are really showing right now and a slight fruity perfume is filling the grow closet. The bright colors glisten and captivate and I just stare and stare. In between dunk feeds I do regularly top pours. The plants are still short. Not much of an early flower growth spurt. But the bud sites are looking healthy and sticky already so I expecting some top shelf, even if itโ€™s not much of it ๐Ÿคฃ

It has been a good week for the girls. 14 days old today and these ladies are some fast growing plants. They will get their next feed tonight when the lights come on. Their feed will be 600 ppm 1.2 ec and it will be ph'ed at 5.8. Good growth this week so we increase by 100 ppm. The runoff values I will post after feeding. Thanks to Kannabia for some good growing genetics. Looking like it's going to be a trouble free grow. Just the way I like it.. Shout out to all my growmie family....Cheers.. Fed at 600 ppm at 5.8 ph runoff was at 600 ppm and the ph was at 6.0 Sept 16th Fed the girls another round at 620 ppm ph'ed at 5.7. Runoff came out at 600 ppm 6.1 ph

SUNDAY 5/19: I accidentally left my UV timer in the "ON" position all night and half of the next day...fearing sudden death, I have moved everybody that was almost ready into the dark tent, including the biggest Candy Cane and will start harvesting them tomorrow..maximum UVB stress for about 20 hours...if it works out that they are even more potent than expected without turning brown overnight, I'll claim it was "intentional," and purport it as an "advanced technique" ๐Ÿ˜‰ MONDAY: The big one still looks fine after the mega-UVB incident , so she's still sitting in the dark. She I flipped on the green light and went into the tent for a sniff test on everybody. She's got that familiar, wonderful stank on her! ๐Ÿ˜ TUESDAY: I harvested the big one today and hung her up to dry in the dark tent. RH is steady at 55% and temp is 78-80f. I decided to start flushing everybody else today, so I put a few gallons through each of them with sledgehammer and bembe. I'll flush them once more after they've dried out. The temps in the big tent are now steady at 82f during daylight hours and 68-70f at night. I changed the lights in the big tent to 20/4 for their last bit of life and added some blue panels to further "winterize" the environment. They are still being hammered by the UVB for 6 hours a day. WEDNESDAY: I took a few photos and harvested some other plants today... THURSDAY: CC#7, the big one, was drying too quickly, so I jarred her in a big jar for the day to slow it down a bit. I'll put her back in the basket tomorrow for another day or so. I also decreased airflow a bit and turned my dehumidifier up to 50%. FRIDAY: I put the big one back in the drying basket in the tent. She had moistened back up really well. Last flush tomorrow on the others. Checked trichs and am seeing up to 25% amber on some of the buds..30-40% should be about right for some truly delicious and crippling smoke. SATURDAY: I took some photos while putting a few gallons of ph adjusted spring water through them today..I'll prolly put them into the dark on Tuesday and kill them on Thursday. Their foliage is burnt up pretty bad due to the massive UVB over-exposure, so I'll have some extra work with the trimming... ๐Ÿ˜

Heyo growmies Flipped to flower! Obliviously the plant is still transitioning and there are no signs of flower yet this week. Roots are nice and healthy and absolutely loving Hydroguard, there is no more muck collecting around my pumps or roots. Overall my training in veg could have been better, I could have followed a guide like nebula haze, but instead I sorta just winged it, it remains to be seen whether or not it pays of in flower, I'm looking for dense nugs, and not a lot of popcorn. My cooling isn't sufficient, but I have some DIY tricks up my sleeve to keep this bucket cool. Hoping to see some color on this girl, I've only grown green weed so far and would love some pretty flowers, that's all for this week, thanks for stopping by. Stay safe and keep growing.

Hey Cannafam, Well weve reached the end for this gorgeous gal, i did want to leave her another week but ive been informed that my landlord wants to inspect the property in 2 weeks, so shes come down and needs to be dried jarred and the tent put away! In the final week i managed to flush her and the light was dailed down to 56%(61 watts). Again humidity was high at 70% with 23c temp, VPD of 0.84 and DLI at 35. Although i was not able to control the environment completley in her final weeks, this gal has performed like a champ, she has built solidly throughout with a maximum of 80 watts from my little rig so a really energy efficient grow ๐Ÿ˜Š Trimming was very difficult, as she was so low down ive wet trimmed in the pot some and then had to dig to cut her main stem. She was just one massive brick of bud when i took her down ๐Ÿ˜ and i must say i definitely fell in love with this chunky woman. Further trimming will be done when shes dried out more and il update with the final dry weight and smoke report later. I hope you've enjoyed this diary, stay safe and remember the Sun always shines in Space ๐Ÿ˜ŠโœŒ๏ธ๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ’š

๐ŸŒธ Signs of flowering showing now as pistils begin to develop on all four plants after changing the light cycle to 12/12. I decided to add a scrog net this week to help even out the canopy as they begin to stretch over the next couple of weeks. โœŒ๏ธ

I think about the fact that it is no longer necessary to cut leaves. I cut it a lot, but I notice that many people cut a bunch of leaves at one time, although somewhere I read no more than 10% at a time. When I gave fertilizers, I always diluted them with water even more to reduce ppm Day 68: I added cal-mag to the diet because the leaves are really turning yellow from the bottom. 0.5 ml Day 70: I added 1 ml cal-mag

Getting slightly confused on how quickly RC#1 has grown! I'm looking at other diaries and these look about 2 weeks ahead! RC#2 is a little behind but should be at this level in a week. I'll add more pics this week. No issues atall this week, I check in the morning, water in the evening. That's it... for a first grow this has been a breeze. 28.08 (day 52) RC#2 seems to of picked up some pace again. I'm wondering if some defoliation shocked her for a few days. I think RC#1 has about 2.5 weeks left 01.03 (day 54) Both have had alot of defoliation this weekend as I could see the humidity has started to creep up slightly. No issues atall. All of the girls (x7) are now on bloom nutrients. RC#1 has been tappered down on nutrients as it's quite possible she will be ready to chop in less than 2 weeks, still amazed how far she is ahead of RC#2 who is only just really starting to properly show formation of flowers, so I'm guessing she will go the full 10-12 weeks. Overall I'm impressed with the RQS seeds, grow has been easy based on I only graduated from my YouTube masters degree in growing in 3 weeks! Lol.
