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! 🌸💚

This was a smooth run as most are in the Dutch buckets. I flowered her on a 5 gallon reservoir which was a challenge to keep topped off towards the end when she was drinking over a gallon a day. Definitely my best autoflower yet.

🌼 About the grow This grow is focused on three autoflowering varieties, each with different characteristics – speed, terpenes, colors and yield. The plants have a very healthy start from the beginning, the root system responds great to the BioBizz program and so far without any signs of stress. Gorilla Zkittlez and LSD-25 have a strong stretch, approximately 90–93 cm. Titan F1 is compact, around 40 cm, but very dense and quickly sets flowers. Flowering is smooth, pistils healthy, without hermia, the aroma gradually becomes more pronounced – fruity and sweet terpenes. 🌞 The goal of the grow maximize the yield in a small 80×80 box keep low humidity in the flowering phase achieve dense, terpene top colas test the difference between the fast F1 variety and classic autos 📝 Current status Beginning of the 4th week of flowering. Gorilla and LSD after fresh fertilization. Titan still slightly damp – waiting for the next dose. All plants without deficit, beautiful color, healthy tops.

I think I won't add anymore nutrients to the water, instead I'll just let the plant fade naturally. It should only have another week or two of flower.

Day 15, having a right week of it!!! Thought I was on top of the chlorosis (Thinking Ca/Mg issue) and then I start getting issues that make the plants look like they're getting N Toxicity!!! Now, in all fairness, by fixing the Ca/Mg issue, I may have created an N issue - My CalMag does appear to have N in it - @Shogun any helpful ideas here for me please??? :) What getting me is plants are drinking (Not massive amounts, but they are drinking), EC is staying stable and have standard pH drift of about 0.1/day towards neutral, this should be bang on. Roots are good as they're popping through bottom of the root pouch/air pruner pots (These are 12L each so a number of roots are over 6inches long this would mean) and growing into the run off water (I may mod my Wilma and make it a psuedo bubbler too but then this may cause all sorts of issues with my expected water volumes, etc.!!!). Wondering if anyone on here has had issues with either wind burn (From a 7" oscillating fan) or seen low humidity issues in veg that could maybe help? I am going to grab a humidifier for the tent (Should be here Wednesday) to see if that helps (Liberally spraying the place with pH adjusted water, added open water sources to the tent, etc.). Also, with the roots popping through, may grab some Sensizym to clean up dead root material & fulvic to ensure no salt build up round the roots. As I am stumped by what I am seeing (Things seem to contradict each other), I ran 2L of pH adjusted water through each plant on Sunday 30th and held of feeding to ensure salt build-up wasn't happening in the clay, round the roots. This has topped the tank back off to around 50L, brought my CF down to 10 (1ec) and I dropped feeds to 3 per day (15mins after lights on for 15mins, 1 in the middle of the cycle and 1x15 near lights off). The fact there was no EC upping with such a small amount of water, again makes me think the "Nute Burn" isn't caused by the feeding and possibly by humidity (or lack there off - it can get down to 35% in there). I know it goes against all the SOP's, but in general, the air coming out of my tent is cool; It does go into the main room where the tent is, but is a large cabin and has the door open most of the day with kids running in and out of the other room (I have a security gate to keep them out!!! :P Also, the airflow crosses my ballast, keeping it cold to the touch); until the humidifier arrives, can i recirc the air back into the tent to up the humidity? I have a dehumidifier in the room (On but set to 90) to check the humidity in the main room and it is creeping up (Was at 63% there when I was re-doing LST while tent was at 44%). My lights on period is 4pm to 10am but don't want to turn the fan off as the tent is beside a SW facing wall so is getting heat for a couple of hours before Sundown (around 9pm now). Or, would it do much damage to change to 6pm to noon for lights on? Don't want more of a shock to their system as they've settled into 18/6 from a 24hr under CFL at seedling. Again, anyone who sees this and may be able to help, please do! Day 19 and 21 added

The purchase of a new light finally! starting to fill the tent so will need to possibly defoliate soon. Leaves are a much nicer colour. At the end of the first video shows the start of the leaf claw. Didn't notice it for about a week after this. :(

10/31/2022: Happy Halloween!! 🎃 Not much to update today. Just installed my scrog net the other day, but I'm thinking I may need to lower it. I'm going to wait and see how much stretch I get this week. Plants were all watered yesterday and are still wet enough. Light is turned up to 100% at this point, but raised it a bit more. At 18 hours of light my average DLI is about 45, which is as high as I will take these. 11/3/2022: Did a heavy watering for all 3 plants today, since they are all still stretching. About 2 liters per plant, using the Coconut Water Powder and Bio-Phos. Ph was 6.7. Also did a bit more defoliation on the Newberry and Orange Bubblegum. All plants are looking great. I think raising the light helped with the slight droop the Newberry had. They are starting to smell now too. When I open the tent, the whole house smells. Love it, haha! 11/5/2022: light watering today with the coconut water and Fish Shit. The Newberry and Orange Bubblegum continue to stretch and the Strawberry Gushers appears to have finished it's stretch and the flowers are beginning to get larger. All 3 plants look really healthy and have no problems at all. Also, most of the fungas nats seem to be gone. I'm assuming the predator mites in the BuildAFlower ate most of the fungas nat larvae. Only issue is the plants did not stretch as much as I expected, so my scrog net is a little high, but I'm just going to leave it. Avg. VPD:1.1 PPFD: 700 DLI: 45

Welcome Back!💚 Nach der vierten Woche des Wachstums entwickelt sich die S Apple Apple zu einem richtigen kleinen verastelten Busch. Allmählich ist eine reguläre Triebform erkennbar, dennoch bilden sich die Triebe sehr langsam und eng anliegend aus. Sie fasziniert mich sehr und ich bin so gespannt, ob sie dann auch ordentlich so die Triebe ausbildet. Ich bin gespannt, wie sich die Pflanze entwickelt. Diese Woche habe ich die Pflanze Mal mit dem BioTabsNl Boom Boom Spray foliert. Die Umgebungsgegebenheiten sind OK: ————— 🌞 Temp: 21°C 🌚 Temp: 18°C bis 19°C 💨 RH: 54% VPD: 0,85 kPa ————— Viele Grüße 👋

lots of growth this week, finished with transplanting for the most part, topped the grinspoon and mac 1 as they are getting huge! hopefully the mac 1 is a freakishly tall girl but seems like it will probably be male, can’t tell just yet. probably going to flip them to flower on the 24/25th

These girls are exploding! Flower came so fast, they are all showing need for more phosphorus and potassium, while at the same time showing nutrient burn at the tips, Jebus, save me! Lol . Overall, no complaints. A few more weeks to go!

Hey good morning Growers hope all is well with everyone and their family and plants Well there’s a lot going on over here at the 48219 Krud Buddy’s Grow House I found out when I transplanted my Wedding cake and Sherbertlato I put them into super soil I feed them twice lightly thank god cause I don’t have any burns or anything n their growing good to me everything is growing good to me way better than the auto flowers I started with but I did some cloning of my own and I’m loving how their taking on as well So here’s what’s going on strain by strain Gorilla Cookies & Peanutbutter Breath : as of Today April 25th they are on day 60 since I got them and have been sitting in the dark since last night for their 24hrs of darkness before flip to flower starting tomorrow morning thinking a good timing would b from 6/6 or 7/7 also I have them under my 600w budget led hanging 12’ above I can’t wait to see how they out and I have them under an scrog net I made Wedding Cake & Peanutbutter Breath: on May 5th it’ll be 60 days since I’ve had them I pretty much told everything bout them at the beginning Grape Pie & Girl Scout Cookies: it’s Been about 3 weeks And I must say they stretched fast their already 15’ tall the grape Pie is spreading faster any of the other clones I got I’m loving it I recently got Cherry Pie & Guava Cake x Cookie it’s bout week one going on two weeks and I must say when I got them I was kinda skeptical about them because they were so weak looking and the cuts on them were terrible but they look like they might turn out into something amazing idk but the pictures show it all as well as the clones I cut myself in clear plastic cups ands their on their second week of life I noticed roots on the 10th and put into cups on the 11th if I’m not mistaken I’m not around my chart so I’m not for sure but everything is going swell over here to me
