Week 8 Update: Transition to Flowering 🌸✨ 🌟 The Flowering Stage Begins 🌟 Welcome to Week 8! Big changes are happening in the grow room. This week marks the official switch from the vegetative stage to the flowering stage. With the light schedule now adjusted to 12 hours of light and 12 hours of darkness, the plants are entering the crucial phase where all the hard work of vegetative growth will start to pay off in the form of buds. 🌼 Flowering Transition 🌼 Light Schedule: The light schedule has been reduced to 12 hours on and 12 hours off, which signals the plants to begin flowering. I'm aiming to maintain a Daily Light Integral (DLI) of around 40 to optimize bud development. Greenhouse Super Lemon Haze 🌞 Responding quickly to the light change, with the first signs of pre-flower pistils emerging. The even canopy from LST will help the plant distribute energy effectively to multiple bud sites. Humboldt Seed Bubba Kush 🌿 This compact, bushy plant is beginning to show signs of entering the flowering stage. Its strong structure is set to support what should be a dense, resinous bud formation. Blueberry Muffin 🥞 Continuing to exhibit robust growth, with the first signs of transition into flowering. The dense frame developed during veg should result in a productive flowering stage. 🌱 Continuing Care 🌱 As the plants transition, I'll be adjusting their care to support this new phase: Nutrient Adjustment: Shifting to a flowering-focused nutrient schedule with increased phosphorus and potassium to support bud formation, while gradually reducing nitrogen. Environmental Control: Monitoring and adjusting temperature and humidity to ideal levels for flowering, ensuring the environment promotes healthy bud development. Training & Defoliation: Continuing LST and selective defoliation to maintain an even canopy and improve light penetration to lower bud sites. 🌸 Looking Forward 🌸 The plants are now in the flowering stage, and this is where the real magic happens. Over the next few weeks, we'll start to see bud sites develop and eventually swell into full, aromatic flowers. I'll be closely monitoring the plants to ensure they have everything they need for a successful bloom. Stay tuned for next week's update as we dive deeper into the flowering phase! Happy growing! 🌸💚

All round a very good plant to grow , one of them stretched but I lollypopped and topped it late into flower due to outgrowing my tent and she took it well, producing absolutely top quality buds covered in milky thricomes and glistening all over the nuggs. Absolutely frosted. The smell at this point was around 7.8 smelling strong of orange and citrus , the main cola nice and dense, with lots of other colas branching off. Easy strain to grow to this point although I did have a calcium deficiency but it was fairly rectified.

Alright, week 11: we’re almost there, F1.The girls are doing good and, thankfully, the buds put on that little extra bit of volume I needed to be happy. They’re still frosty as ever, and this last week the aroma shifted slightly sweeter… but damn, the smell is loud (in a good way) and it makes every check-up a challenge. Now, about the Runtz: I thought she’d be the most disadvantaged one, but at this stage of flower she’s honestly turning into the most rewarding in the group. She keeps throwing resin for days, and her terps are driving me crazy super sweet, like gummy candy, with a strong fruity vibe. She’s stacking bud on top of bud, and I can’t wait to remove the three Hyperions so I can put her center stage and let her fully shine; once she’s not crammed in with the other roommates, the environmental parameters should be way easier to manage. This week I dropped EC a bit since we’re close to the finish line. Environment is still the same though: RH over 65%. Honestly I’m surprised they’ve made it this far with zero mold signs, probably because the buds aren’t crazy huge and rock-dense. So yeah, I can’t say this was the best run management-wise, but quality-wise they’re looking promising. That’s the situation. Happy growing fam, that’s all for this update.

Late post for the week my bad been a bit lazy. But these things are going nuts. I think theyre done stretching. There's alot more swelling and the stench is pungent. My air purifier was masking the smell. The small one has a lime, deisel, cat piss smell and the other one is kinda like a peppermint catpissy smell. Its hard to describe. I've raised my light to the top of the tent and have started using Cal mag as well due to the yellowing in the center of the canopy. Im pretty sure its caused by either bleaching from the light or heat so im hoping the use of cal mag will help strengthen. I've also added 2 fans to attempt to drop humidity and cool things down. Its not really working but trial and error. Ill try to be on time next week. 🤙🤙

Day 36 - It's week 5 already! The canopy is really gaining height day by day. Tied some more side branches down and adjusted the tie down on the main branch. Day 37 - Trying to figure out the correct watering amount. 1.5L was too much today will lower tomorrow to 1.2L. Day 38 - Plant is looking good today. Adjusted the tie downs on some branches. Watered with 1.3L and run off was still around 350ml so lowering tomorrow to 1.2L. Day 39 - Watering with 1.2L today. There was still no run off, I'm putting this down to the increased fan speeds, longer open tent periods and the plant growing more vegetation. My 2L watering can should arrive today, so I will be able to mix nutrients in one reservoir and water more accurately. Removed 3 of the bottom most fan leaves which had a branch large enough to support itself. Day 40 - Watered with 1.5L today. Removed 1 fan leaf and tied down a side branch. Run off was around 100ml. I also set the fan speed back to 1, as I think 2 was too strong for the plant and dehydration levels of the soil. Day 41 - Watered with 1.6L today. Run off of 400ml (25%). Getting pretty bushy now almost stretching to all sides of the tent. Day 42 - Watered with 1.4L today. Run off was 150ml (10%). She's now 32cm tall with the light hanging 36cm above the highest tips. That brings us to the end of Week 6. It looks like we are a day or two away from starting to flower properly. Bring on Week 7!

Smooth week for the girls. Not much stretching left on her and the flowers are packing on more weight. Trichs are starting to pack on there and some pistols are showing some orange colors. Smell is definitely starting to strengthen too.

Сухим весом получилось более 200 грамм шишек с каждого куста. На фото шишки с одного куста, перетертые через сито для приготовления канна шоколада. Россыпь получилась на столько жирной, что я резал ножом))). Веточки что остались после перетирания шишек- закинул в бутылку с вискарем. Они там настоятся и будет напиток веселее! Ресурс очень хороший, жаль не дружит с Украиной, а ведь пора уже расширять службу доставки посевного материала и не только. Всем удачи и отличного настроения. Получилось шикарное масло и шоколадок сделал для майских праздников на природе.

Day 29 - Second day of light defoliation only at the base. LST continues along with regular tucking Day 30 - flowering is kicking in for two of the girls and they are starting to get some stretch going on. They are not very tall but sure seem happy. Day 35? - Final pics posted for end of week 5 and week 1 of flower is killing it. Got the light dialed in after researching the par output on my light and watching some reviews. It’s now at 18 inches running 100%. 335 watt draw at the outlet. They seem to be loving it. Day 32 - finally finished the watering system. I can travel now if I have to.

Another week done, finished up week 6 of flowering, week 10 of the whole grow. The buds are continuing to fatten up, inching closer and closer to harvest. Noticed the first few Amber tricombs on some of the upper buds, going to be leaning off the big bud and switching to overdrive to help aid in ripening and the final bulk. I’d like the run them another 4 weeks giving them a full 9-10 weeks in flower. But will judge harvest on a near 45/55 or 50/50, Cloudy/amber tricomb production.

Hello Fellow Growers ✌️🏻🍁 Not posted in the last week or so, The girls have been potted up into 18litre pots using Bio all mix. Few of them had low PPM 350/400s & some in 700s just before reporting which is low and showing N deficiency’s So once potted up I just give them a nutrient feed of bio grow. Since the soil is got nutrients in it am hoping this will sort it’s self out nutrient wise over the next week. Ripper seeds - dosido x purple punch - has got some mad deficiency I can’t keep happy always looks over watered Aiming to start flowering within the next week or so - since potting up the others I soon realised I was running out of space so I decided to chop a couple strains out. Thought of adding a humidifier into the mix but not sure as I was having over feeding issues - anyones thoughts on this? All auto flowering strains are starting to really get into flowering now. Pink runtz auto - has a lovely strawberries smell. Gorilla glue auto - isn’t looking to great, she’s got a slight deficiency. Blue cheese auto - is growing slow I’m sure this got over fed and just hadn’t bounced back yet. Amnesia haze auto - this is the tallest of them all she’s starting to pack on too. Any questions or if you see anything you notice off give me a message always down for some helpful tips. Peace 🙏🏻🍁

## Week 4 Update: Thriving Growth and New Techniques! ### 🌱 Vigorous Growth with Greenhouse Super Lemon Haze, Humboldt Seed Bubba Kush, and Blueberry Muffin 🌱 Welcome back to another exciting update on my grow journey with Greenhouse Super Lemon Haze, Humboldt Seed Bubba Kush, and Blueberry Muffin. The plants are thriving under optimal conditions, and I’ve started experimenting with new techniques to maximize their potential. --- ### Diary Snippet: Advanced Techniques and Optimal Conditions In Week 4, the plants are growing like weeds thanks to maintaining high PPFD (Photosynthetic Photon Flux Density) and optimal temperatures in the grow tent. These conditions are essential for maximizing photosynthesis and ensuring vigorous growth. --- ### Techniques Applied: LST and Defoliation #### Low-Stress Training (LST) This week, I applied Low-Stress Training (LST) for the first time. By gently bending and tying down the branches, I've created a more even canopy. This technique helps to: - **Increase Light Exposure:** Ensures all parts of the plant receive sufficient light. - **Improve Air Circulation:** Reduces the risk of mold and pests by allowing better airflow between the branches. - **Boost Yield:** Promotes the development of multiple colas, potentially increasing the overall yield. #### Defoliation In addition to LST, I also began defoliation, selectively removing some fan leaves to: - **Enhance Light Penetration:** Allows more light to reach the lower parts of the plant. - **Stimulate Growth:** Encourages the plant to focus its energy on bud development rather than foliage. --- ### Nutrient Management: Increasing Plagron Dosage As the plants grow, their nutritional needs increase. I've started to gradually increase the dosage of Plagron nutrients, following a careful schedule to prevent nutrient burn. Key benefits of Plagron nutrients include: - **Balanced Nutrient Profile:** Provides essential macro and micronutrients for robust plant growth. - **Improved Soil Structure:** Enhances the soil's ability to retain water and nutrients. - **Enhanced Flavor and Aroma:** Contributes to the development of rich, flavorful buds. --- ### Technology in Action: TM+ Pro App and TrollMaster To maintain and monitor the optimal growing conditions, I'm utilizing the TM+ Pro App and TrollMaster system: #### TM+ Pro App The TM+ Pro App has been invaluable for tracking and adjusting the environmental conditions in real-time. Key features include: - **Remote Monitoring:** Allows me to keep an eye on temperature, humidity, and light levels from anywhere. - **Data Logging:** Records environmental data for analysis, helping to fine-tune the growing conditions. - **Alerts:** Sends notifications if conditions deviate from the optimal range, enabling quick corrective actions. #### TrollMaster The TrollMaster system is integrated with the grow tent to automate and control various aspects of the environment: - **Climate Control:** Manages temperature and humidity levels to ensure a stable environment. - **Lighting Automation:** Adjusts the light intensity and schedule to mimic natural sunlight patterns. - **Nutrient Delivery:** Automates the feeding schedule, ensuring the plants receive nutrients at the right time and in the right amounts. --- ### Spotlight on Blueberry Muffin 🌿 🥦🥦🥦🥦🥦 **Cannabis Strain Benefits** 🧐 🤓 Blueberry Muffin has been a delightful addition to the grow tent. This strain is known for its sweet, berry-like aroma and potent relaxing effects. It's been growing robustly alongside the other strains and is responding well to the advanced techniques applied. - **Parentals:** Blueberry x Purple Panty Dropper - **Type:** Indica-dominant Hybrid - **Flowering Time:** 8-9 Weeks - **Flavor / Taste / Smell:** Berry, Sweet, Earthy - **Effect:** Relaxing, Euphoric, Happy - **THC Content:** 18-22% - **Characteristics:** Dense Buds, High Resin Production The Blueberry Muffin plants are showing strong growth and developing beautiful, dense buds with a rich aroma. They are a bit more sensitive to defoliation, so I've been careful to remove only the necessary leaves to ensure optimal growth without stressing the plants too much. --- ### Looking Ahead With the application of LST, defoliation, and precise nutrient management, the plants are set for an impressive growth phase. The TM+ Pro App and TrollMaster system will continue to play a crucial role in maintaining optimal conditions. Stay tuned for next week's update as the plants progress and more advanced techniques are applied! Happy growing! 🌿💚

The run continues nicely, we still had some temperatures of nutritive solution a little high with the heat of Danielle. It drops drastically in 2 days so I will finally finish this growth in the calm one and will be able to begin my bloom on September 24th. I apply hydrogen peroxide at a rate of 0.5ML/L, twice a week as a treatment. The root Rot X is used every ten days when changing the nutritive solution. I put less water in my system, in order to create a wet zone and a dry zone, I make sure that the roots are always immersed of course. As soon as the temperature drops, I will switch to 800 ppfd for the end of growth and depending on the evolution of the plants I may add some sensi grow a and b to increase the ec a little. If you are attentive, you will observe on the tips of the leaves or even on the leaves, spots of burns or deficiencies, it is simply the consequence of the pythium a few days earlier. The last growth update will be around September 24/25.
