2024-07-23 A few months ago, I germinated three opium poppy seeds. Each seedling was given a different setup: 1. Outdorgrow in a 30L container 2. Outdoorgrow in a 75L container 3. Indoorgrow in a 30L Airpot This post focuses on the indoor plant, which was trained using various techniques such as mainlining, topping, LST (Low Stress Training), and some supercropping. The indoor plant thrived from the beginning, showing vigorous and healthy growth. It responded well to training, consistently displaying a robust appearance. Its growth seemed effortless, requiring only adequate water and minimal nutrients. Training began with topping and continued for 9 weeks during the vegetation phase. The main technique used was mainlining, shaping the plant into a circle using pipe cleaners. The plant's soft stems and branches made it easy to train without causing stress. After 9 weeks of vegetative growth and training, I was satisfied with the result and initiated the flowering phase. The plant continued to flourish, primarily needing water and care. Only a few NPK feedings were necessary, but it received many beneficial supplements with watering. The growing medium used was Terra Preta MJ-Mix, and I applied a mycorrhizal inoculant called DYNOMYCO. This significantly enhanced root development and nutrient breakdown. Essentially, And i applied aTodpressing with Insectfrass, so they stayed lovely green. I was feeding the microorganisms in the Terra Preta mix, which in turn kept the plant healthy. The plant developed beautiful colas while maintaining its circular shape. Harvesting was straightforward. The aroma was fruity (reminiscent of apricot) with a strong, gassy undertone. The buds are currently curing. I've taken photographs of the plant's "skeleton" and some pre-cured buds, showcasing the impressive trichome development. The OutdoorPlants are still growing, and the Diary will continue

Da die Pflanze nun richtig mit der Blütenexpansion loslegt, war es Zeit den guten einen Komposttees zu gönnen. Der Komposttee gehört für mich inzwischen zum absoluten muss beim organischen Anbau, da er für mich bis jetzt den Pflanzen immer nochmal einen guten Boost gibt. Beim zufügen erkennt man es in der ersten Woche noch nicht so gut, doch wie sich die Pflanzen dann von der Blütenstruktur her in der letzten Phase Weiterentwickeln, war immer wieder erstaunlich. Jetzt sind alle Blüttenstänme angelegt und ich bin absolut gespannt darauf, wie sich nun die volle Ausbildung der Blütenstände entwickelt. Zusätzlich bekommen die Pflanzen jetzt auch den Lichtboost, indem beide Lampen nun auf voller Kraft laufen. Die ersten Aromen zeigen sich auch schon deutlich, wobei ich sagen muss, dass ich mit diesem Aroma so nicht gerechnet hätte. Es ist sehr Süsslich mit einem leichten Zitrus und Süßigkeiten oder Flan Touch. Aber das entwickelt sich noch weiter. Die Werte in der Blüte sind aktuell: —————— 🌞 Temp: 29°C 🌚 Temp: 22°C 💨 RH: 54% VPD: 1.40 kPa —————— Stay Tuned

This is the 8th week. Thursday will be 9 weeks of 12/12. Some trichs are amber. They just added a good bunch of girth over the past few days, but most of the pistils are red now. The rest of them have been dropping leaves consistenly but the canopy remains full so they must be putting out more leaves. I just flushed to 80% runoff and found out that I had 1200ppm. I just got an ec meter but my last reading said closer to 600 so idk what happened there. I flushed until I had runoff ppm of about 150. Now they're back in the grow tent. I don't want to keep assaulting them with my microscope. I think they're ready. Just gonna let them settle another day or two to dry out a bit. I took one small branch off the small Wedding Cake plant on Thursday and I've just been watching it dry on my counter. It's been 5 days and the stem snaps but still leaves a fiber connecting. I put it into a small jar with a 64RH thing. I just want to try it. It already smells amazing. The leaves on the big CBD Blue Shark plant are going really yellow and some other colours are starting to come out as well. The buds all fattened up and got more frosty again. I was worried they were foxtailing but they got more calyxes underneath the peaks and have been making more of a pyramid shape. They're really close to peak. Harvest day will be March 17 or 18. March 17 1023pm chopped and hung after lights off all day. RH was 65% before I chopped and 50% after I closed the window and cut the plants off the saturated pots. I did a wet trim to prevent mold. The buds are sticky af. Gonna hang them to dry for 7-9 days before curing in jars :) March 18 : checked the RH when I woke up and it's chilling at 45% 😎 March 19 : just checked to see how they were drying. There are seeds in every plant. RIP I'll update when I put them in jars and again a few weeks later for final review. Overall it was a good grow despite the rocky start and a good introduction to the mainline technique and my new grow space. Next grow I should have everything pretty well dialed in. March 23 They were hanging for 3 days. Rh was around 45, then spiked to 65 overnight when I forgot to turn the fans back on. Temp was high at around 26.they felt wet after 2 days, and bone dry after 4 days. The stems still didn't snap but I put them in jars anyway. A day later, jar RH was 50%. I burped all the jars and there was a smell from the new jars. I took all the weed out, washed out the jars, and did a dry trim on the weed. One of the Wedding Cake plants must have gone hermie. I didn't see any bananas and didn't even realize there were seeds until the very end. The seed pods looked just like calyxes while the plants were growing. Many of the nugs are unusable. Under the sugar leaves are just layers and layers of seeds. Some weren't hit that badly. The CBD Blue Shark is much better off but still has some seeds. I'm trying to stay positive. It's a bit of a shock though. I'm anxious to try the finished product. If the flowers at least taste good and have a good effect, all is not lost.

if u wanna skip details just read the CAP LETTERS day 29 - januari 2 waterleaves from under the stems got cut off, also trimmed the lowest branches because the leaves were getting too big the soil plant has gotten no trim or cuts at all day 31 the ph of the res was 5.3 i changed water , roots look brown, not rotten or slimy just brown. day 32 the hydro plant gets healthy growth after the water change. ph is still too low (5.5) im waiting for my *PH up* i ordered online. never tought i would need it lol. she goes well on 5.5 but not enough calmag is absorbed like it does on 6.2 The pictures of day 32 display the difference is very big in the stems, the soil plant only got topped while the hydro plant had already a litle trim on the lowest branches and the branches above (in the midle of the bush where i topped them) so she got more stress and still is bigger then the soil. day 33 i got no ph up (for now yikes) sooooo i took 8 liters out of the res and replaced it with pure rainwater and 170 ppm calmag in it without nutrients to keep the acid level a bit higher. it worked as u can see in the final pictures the plant gets new growth a bit faster. ph up should be here by end of the week. day 35: plant start to stretch finnally, while i was doing LST later in the evening one of the top stems just snapped off completely OOOPS 😆. theres still a lot of branching going on and a nice bush she will recover very fast from this loss as i summoned the Cannabis Gods into my room as the planets lined up and perfected my PH up to 6 by adding the purest rainwater from the universe the roots cleaned themselves back to pearlwhite and started absorbing the nutes faster then ever. in all silence i knew this was my destiny and the stems grew so fast i could hear them grow. the whole experience was too much as i collapsed to the ground and stood up left the room and knew... i would never see these ph and calmag problems ever again and went down the stairs with my new powers THE PLANTS BOTH GOT GERMINATED ON SAME DATE. BOTH GOT TOPPED ON SAME NODE. I WAS FORCED TO TRIM 4 BRANCHES OF THE HYDROPLANT BECAUS IS WAS BLOCKING TOO MUCH LIGHT I ALSO CUT OFF THE 4 BIGGEST WATERLEAVES ON THE MAIN STEM. THE SOILPLANT DID NOT NEED ANY TRIMS AS SHE IS NOT GROWING AT AN INSANE SPEED, HOWEVER THE SOIL PLANT LOOKS HEALTHIER AND BIGGER BECAUSE THE FANLEAVES ARE STILL THERE. IF U WATCH THE STEMS IN THE PICTURES OF DAY 32 U CAN CLEARLY SEE THE HYDRO IS WAY BIGGER. I NEED TO CORRECT MY PH SO SHE ABSORBS MORE CALCIUM MAGNESIUM FOR EXPLOSIVE GROWTH.

day 65: Removed some leafs that were about to fall off by themselfes and gave her about 5.5 liters of water. I also noticed some more amber trichomes on some buds. day 66: just visual check. more trichomes turning amber. I guess it's time to chop her in a few days. day 67: just visual checks. day 68: Today I gave the plant another 6 liters of pH-regulated water without any additives and removed 2-3 dry leaves. While some buds already have quite a few brown trichomes and look as if I could harvest them in 3 days, other buds look as if they will need another 2 weeks, both in terms of the trichomes and the pistils. According to the current plan, the next watering day is Tuesday. Then I will reassess the situation. day 69: Just visual check and refreshing humidification. The "ugly" spots continue to spread, but I hope it's okay and that she will last until the harvest. day 70: Just visual check and refreshing humidification. day 71: Removed some dead leafs and gave her about 5 liters of water. I will give her an extra 1 or 2 liters tomorrow, so she will have enough water (hopefully) for the next few days that I'm gone.

6 out of 8 plants in pre-flowering, i replaced my humidifier with the dehumidifier, very present smell when I open the tent, a little early like my last crop. ⚠️ Day 26: Green gelato is hermaphrodite, destruction of the Green gelato, burial of a northern light.

22. Dezember Video ist von gestern, die restlichen Bilder von heute. Wir neigen uns dem Ende zu :) Alle drei sind sehr unterschiedlich weit in der Reife. Nachdem ich doch eine milde Maus bin bin ich ganz happy über das Profil der Trichome: Links: relativ viele durchsichtige Trichome, wenig milchig, Bernstein konnte ich keines finden Mitte: die kleinste Pflanze die schon früher anfing zu blühen. Sie hat viele milchige Trichome und viele bernsteinfarbene. Durchsichtige habe ich kaum gefunden. Kann mir vorstellen das diese Lady für meinen Geschmack zu sehr klatscht x) aber das gilt es noch herauszufinden Rechts: visuell gefällt sie mir am besten! Die Blüten und die Wachstumsstrucktur ist wunderschön! Trichome hier sind überwiegend milchig, sehr wenig bernsteinfarben und wenige durchsichtig. So hätten vermutlich alle drei werden sollen 😅 ich werde wohl auf meine klimatischen Bedingungen im Zeöt nochmal etwas Einfluss nehmen müssen damit sich das besser deckelt. Die Lampe ist aus, die Töpfe furztrocken und der Zustand wird jetzt noch mindestens drei Tage gehalten. Plan ist um die Weihnachtsfeiertage zu ernten. Ich stelle mich auf einen langen schnippelprozess ein, da es doch schon viieeeel Pflanze ist x) Ich update dann wieder sobald es soweit ist. Euch wünsche ich schöne Feiertage ❤️ geniest eure Zeit ❤️

March 7, 2019 Update: These babies are doing great! I plan on transplanting 6 plants and moving them into the flowering room this weekend. As of right now my plan is to move 1 Medi Kush CBD, 1 DinaMed CBD and 4 Cherry Hemp plants into flower. I'm going to pick the largest/most developed plants for the move. Then I'll keep the rest in veg for another month, next month I'll pick the next 6. I'd like to get the plants on a monthly rotation so I can be harvesting monthly.

Vamos familia, hora de cosechar estas Biscotti de RoyalQueenSeeds. No veáis que pinta que tienen las flores están bien formadas y repletas de tricomas. Después de 70 días de floración obtengo estas flores tan increíbles que huelen pfff. Es una variedad un poco complicada de cultivar pero, que al final si da sus frutos. Bastante contento con este primer cultivo de la temporada de indoor. Dar las gracias a james por las genéticas dé RoyalQueenSeeds, y a todo el equipo de Agrobeta, que sin vosotros parte de estos proyectos no son posibles 🙏 Agrobeta: https://www.agrobeta.com/agrobetatiendaonline/36-abonos-canamo Mars hydro: Code discount: EL420 https://www.mars-hydro.com/ Hasta aquí es todo , espero que lo disfrutéis, buenos humos 💨💨.

2/20: Both pots are light and are looking droopy. Time for first day of feeding nutrients. I used 1tbsp unsulphured molasses mixed into a half strength mix of General Organics GO Box nutrients, following the first week of flower instructions. 2/21: Both plants are looking great this morning. Amnesia seemed to have grown more overnight! I'll need to watch the timelapse to see what happened. My lights are at about 80% at 12 inches above the plants. I'm going to increase it to 12 inches above the tallest cola. 2/22: May turn both lights to 100% soon, as the timelapse of the night didn't show much growth or movement. Otherwise looking good. 2/24: Woke up to Amnesia's lower leaves turning yellow, brown, and crunchy. Google research thinks its a PK deficiency, the last two letters if the N-P-K nutrient list. Discord users also believed it was a PK deficiency on their own accord. I may be able to remedy this by upping my main Biothrive Bloom to full strength to increase those nutrient numbers, and feeding her now. She's growing fast, I could see why she'd be hungry again after 4 days. Her pot wasn't quite all the way light before bed though. After today's feeding I'll go down to 3/4 strength on the Bloom for the next feeding. EDIT: After lifting Amnesias pot, she definitely is ready for feeding/watering. Probably starved a bit overnight in the hot tent. Later at night, Trainwreck began to droop, so I mixed up a half strength of nutrients and fed her a gallon over a half hour.

Hey guys :-) First of all I have to say that all 5 strains I have in the tent from Amsterdam Genetic are beautiful genetics 👍 . This week they were repotted into 8L fabric pots. When repotting, 2 g of Green House Powder Feeding Bio line were added per liter of substrate :-) . That's enough until the first flowers start 👍. Watering was done twice this week with 0.8 l each. Otherwise everything was cleaned and checked and fresh osmosis water was mixed. Stay healthy 🙏🏻💚 👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼 You can buy this Nutrients at : https://shop.greenhousefeeding.com/us/ 👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼 You can buy this strain at : https://www.amsterdamgenetics.com/product/skyrocket-feminized-cannabis-seeds/ Water 💧 💧💧 Osmosis water mixed with normal water (24 hours stale that the chlorine evaporates) to 0.2 EC. Add Cal / Mag to 0.4 Ec Ph with Organic Ph - to 5.8 - 6.4 MadeInGermany

Esta semana ha ido muy bien. Su color es muy verde a pesar de la poca cantidad de nitrógeno aportado y lleva un crecimiento muy fuerte a sus flores que ya estan bañándose en tricomas con ese delicioso olor a goma de mascar rosa. Es muy visible el trabajo de Bud Booster sumado a Bud Candy que estan dando un increíble aporte de volumen a sus cogollos. Por suerte no tuve que usar agua de grifo para esta planta que aún está siendo alimentada con agua de lluvia. Irie!

They're lagging a little from the transplant, hopeful next week we'll see their growth spurt starting. She seems to be one of the healthiest of the bunch.
