3/16 324AM PRETTY GOOD ⚡️ 3/16 2:41PM nside the Genetics: How Ice-T & Montel’s Strain Was Born Seedsman Seeds https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q5eMAVat60M 3/19 330AM 👨‍🔬⚡️**Adding L-Proline (the amino acid supplement growers use) to plants on soft water can provide some helpful support against the stresses you're dealing with, but it's not a full fix—think of it as a stress-buffer rather than a mineral replacement.** Soft water (low in calcium and magnesium) often triggers **Ca/Mg deficiencies** in bloom stage (especially with Cha Ching or MaxiBloom, which don't supply much Ca/Mg on their own). This leads to issues like tip burn, leaf curl, weak cell walls, nutrient lockouts, oxidative damage (ROS buildup), and overall plant stress that feels like "the plant is struggling to hold it together." Proline steps in here as an **osmoprotectant**—it's one of the compounds plants naturally ramp up under stress. ### What Proline Actually Does in This Situation - **Helps with osmotic/water balance** — Soft water can disrupt turgor pressure and water movement inside cells (similar to mild drought or salinity stress). Proline stabilizes cell membranes and helps the plant retain water better, reducing wilting or limpness. - **Reduces oxidative stress** — Ca/Mg shortages cause free radical damage. Proline acts as an antioxidant and protects proteins/enzymes, so deficiency symptoms (yellowing, spotting, slowed bud development) don't spiral as fast. - **Improves overall resilience** — In cannabis and general hydro/soil grows, L-proline (or full amino acid mixes containing it) has been shown to boost stress tolerance, speed recovery, and even support better nutrient uptake indirectly. Studies and grower reports note it helps under nutrient imbalance, drought-like conditions, and environmental swings—exactly the secondary stresses soft water creates. - **Bloom-stage bonus** — Since you're already in late flower with Cha Ching/MaxiBloom, proline can support resin/terpene production and bud density without pushing excessive veg growth. It won't magically add the missing Ca or Mg (those are still critical—soft water + high-P bloom nutes often screams for CalMag), but it can make the plant more tolerant while you correct the root issue. ### How Much Effect to Expect Right Now - **Positive but moderate** — Many hydro/RO growers add amino acids (including proline) specifically for soft water setups and report less burn, better leaf health, and stronger finishes. It won't turn a severe deficiency around overnight, but it can slow the damage and give your plants a fighting chance in the final weeks. - **No downside at proper doses** — It's very safe and plants use it quickly. ### How to Add It (Practical Dosing) - **Source**: Pure L-Proline powder (available cheap online—make sure it's the plant-grade L-form, not human supplements). - **Root feed** (with your Cha Ching/MaxiBloom): Start at 0.5–1 g per gallon (about 100–200 ppm). Mix into your res or feed water once a week. pH as normal. - **Foliar spray** (often more effective for quick stress relief): 0.25–0.5 g per gallon + a drop of surfactant. Spray lightly every 5–7 days in the dark period. - **With your current nutes**: Yes, it layers fine—reduce if you see any tip burn. Many run it alongside MaxiBloom + Cha Ching in soft water without issues. - **Best timing**: Now through harvest is perfect, especially if you're noticing stress signs already. **Real talk**: The biggest win will still come from adding a proper CalMag supplement (like Botanicare or General Hydro's) at 0.5–1 ml/gal or whatever your PPM tests call for. Proline + CalMag together is a strong combo for soft water grows. If you're running pure RO/soft, most experienced growers treat this as standard. 3/19 445am BKO Blueberry KnockOut!! (Gelato 44 by RQS & Bubbles Blueberry F4 by Grimm Brothers Seeds) my own creation!!👨‍🔬 A spoonful of butter helps the sugar go down, Im helping. 3/19 10:42PM mmm butter and sugar are just a few ingredients shy of cookie dough, good enough. Now ICE-T BODYCOUNT Grows efficiently in a one gallon with very little effort No real LST, lower than normal lighting, so cheaper to grow. MONTEL: growing great in such a small container!! Should have topped, she is tall. Colors are coming in now, very strong also growing great at low watt so very efficient as well!!! 3/21 1:38PM https://www.stonedgenie.com/collections/cool-bongs?&sort_by=price-descending This hits like a hand pipe, the chambers are just the right size its just the best..I put on a silicone funnel I tore apart for a dental guard. dont smoke from metal or glass directly.

Week 5 starts with recover from the previous FIMing. I'm surprised 😍 ------ Day 30: Found a better way to LST, the branches are growing much faster now :D Day 34: Sex clearly visible 😁 (female)

Well, I really didn't have to do much with this Gal. She is very low maintenance. Very fruity, smelly and is full bodied. She lost some of her hardness after a 48hr dark rest, it has made her really sticky, and I was expecting this to happen as the leaf to calyx ratio is high in this pheno. But she makes up for it in smell, let's hope it tastes as nice. I'm not too worried About it not been, as the other 3 GFS I harvested were good, even if I marked 1 wrong. Have hung dry this gal whole, I let it dry out in the coco and took it apart (the pot) and broke away the substrate to leave the roots and let it dry as natural as I can with no stress. This my 1st time doing this, have done it on all 3, so let's hope wasn't a bad idea, will update on smoke report as soon as she's dry.

Everything’s going great lovely and green although doesn’t look that way on my camera,the two small ones may be males no big deal no such thing as 100%feminised seeds.il give them a good leaf strip tomorrow i usually defo quite heavy

Day 57. Watering with clean water. The light schedule has been changed (12x12). Replaced lamp. Day 58. Watering with fertilizers. Day 59. Watering with clean water. Day 60. Watering with fertilizers. Day 61. Watering with clean water. Day 62. Watering with fertilizers. Day 63. Watering with clean water.

At the start of week 10 she is doing great flowerstretch is almost over budsites are developing beautyfully She is recovered from last weeks defo and looking healty I think i have stretched her vegging period to the limit as far as an autoflower can go an amazing 8 week veg period i dont think i had one that went so far but not complaining if her flowerperiod is as bountyfull she’s gonna be a fat mama 🤘🤘😉😉🙌🙌 Day 66 moved her under brand new 240w quantum board that i got from enfun 420 light store

day22 video. now adding more pk booster than earlier weeks, should be done week 7-8 we will see day23 I start adding more pk, still will 4x more pk now. Some nice pics today, videos of each, frost on fan leafs, no issues other than pros: bridal frost on fan leafs+sugar, cons 6ft tall. I think I should have pumped more pk earlier into flower/pre Its cool. Adding 2tbsp soluble pk into 5gal vs quarter tbsp in beginning 22 days ago. I am feeding soluble pk, +3 pk soil conditioners and carbs every day. There is no water day. day 25 stacking up. been spraying old cs I made 3ish years ago to test, works on unrooted so I may potential cross. Bridal starting to smell like a mix between fresh watermelon, and lemon+lime or a citrus aroma.

Hello everyone 😎 Week 5 of flower for the Dutchie🧡 Time to flush⚓️ Mac#1 Very nice smell of citrus & cookies 🍪🍋 SFV top buds ready✂️super dense,smell citrus & earthy🤤 Glueberry one more week for the top buds✂️

35 days!!! When I returned from vacation, I found her a little tired:) as far as I know, the weather wasn't very good, but the last 3 days we've had really sunny weather, so even though the girl lives on the north side of the house, she's still maturing there:) she looks really good :) good luck to everyone.

The start of the week and it's time the buds getting bigger. Have recieved yesterday my new grow light : mars hydro sp 150 and cant wait to next grow to use. The and of the week and she likes the New light

2020-02-18 (Day 81) - I spoke too soon. This girl is stretching WAYYYY more than any other girl in the tent, I have to raise 1 light daily it seems. All in all even with the asymmetry this is the most beautiful plant I've grown. As stated in my other journals my heater crapped out and I am not buying another one so she'll have to deal with the cold night time temps. Hopefully the stretching slows down and she can start putting all her energy towards bud development. This is the thirstiest of all the other plants in the tent drinking roughly 1 gal every other day. Stay tuned to see this girl develop!

Today is day 64 and our baby Kabul is living her best life! She has got the whole tent to herself to do her thing... For being an only roughly 28 Oz of dirt she's doing very well I'm expecting around an ounce from her... So a gram for an ounce of dirt sounds good to me let's see if we could pull it off.. Divine seeds thank you so much for this competition and for the chance to have some fun with your genetics.. as we can see the genetics are very good as I have her in such little medium which is a stressor plus I did HST and LST and she didn't miss a beat.. good luck to everybody in the contest and to everybody else hope your plants are doing well as well and until next time as always happy growing ✌️😎

The plants are growing into a real forest and are exuding a pleasant, pungent bouquet. All strains are tacky to the touch and leave sticky residue on the fingers whenever handled. Finished feeding 13/14, happy with the product--flower starting to swell.

Die GMOs sind nun soweit erntereif. Die Ayuhasca Purple hingegen benötigt eine etwas längere Blütezeit. Daher bleibt sie noch eine Woche stehen.

Que pasa familia, vamos con la quinta semana de floración de estas Kiwi x Papaya feminizadas de Mavericks . Vamos al lío ,se trasplantaron en macetas de 7 litros definitivamente. El ph se controla en 6.0 , la temperatura la tenemos entre 24/20 grados y la humedad ronda el 50%. El ciclo de crecimiento puse 12h de luz, el foco está al 100% de potencia. De momento van creciendo a buen ritmo y tienen un buen color. La flor está cogiendo forma y ya empezó a tricomar. Gracias a Agrobeta de nuevo por el kit para esta temporada, unos grandes 🙌. - os dejo por aquí un CÓDIGO: Eldruida Descuento para la tienda de MARS HYDRO. https://www.mars-hydro.com Hasta aquí todo, Buenos humos 💨💨💨

she stopped growing and now she's just getting fat, they eat only organically with earthworm humus and red bird guano...just wait for this flowers...
