Week 8 Update: Transition to Flowering ๐ธโจ
๐ The Flowering Stage Begins ๐
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.
๐ผ Flowering Transition ๐ผ
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 ๐
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 ๐ฟ
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 ๐ฅ
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.
๐ฑ Continuing Care ๐ฑ
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.
๐ธ Looking Forward ๐ธ
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! ๐ธ๐

Fed/watered with 1 gallon of the above listed nutrients, every 3 days. (when the growing medium becomes 95% dry)
Gave her a light selective de-leafing, to open up the inner bud-sites to more light.
The timelapse shows me why I won't be transplanting like this again. (Slow growth/lost time from constricted root mass)

Excelente resultado el que hemos obtenido con estas cepas de kannabia, pero esta se lleva la palma.. para mi, es la favorita del cultivo. Ha sido la mรกs fรกcil de cultivar, la que mejor se adapto en el espacio de cultivo.. bastante productiva y con una resina brutal.
Sabores cรญtrico y mango muy acentuado.. es una pasada fumar esta cepa.
Con esto damos por terminado el cultivo con kannabia.. disculpad la tardanza en publicar... tarde o temprano siemore cumplimos!
Hasta pronto amigos! Un saludo growers ๐๐จโ๐พ๐ฝ

Comenzando semana 7 de estรกs nenas, aun las mantengo en 1L y hoy le hicimos su primera defoliaciรณn masiva, ahora a esperar que se recuperen para hacerle trasplante a maceta de 3,5L.
La verdad no eh tenido muchos problema, todo sigue igual siguiendo el mismo orden de nutrientes, bacterias y hongos benรฉficos una vez por semana, enzimas ahora se las estoy dando dรญa por medio o cada 3 dรญa.
Ya logramos sacar los primeros clones de la watermelon, punch y cookie y la thc bomb. la dss aun la tenemos tirando fuerza que no va mal pero no tenia espacio para mรกs clones.

Day 10:
They have been growing nicely. Beautifull green leafs, no deficiencies or stress.
I did some Defoliation and I'm planning to top some plants but not all of them since they make nice main colas as well.
Also nice roots so far, will let those grow for another 1-3 days before repotting them into 7L pots.
While doing that I will add some new clay for beneeth the pots to have a good run-off. I will add some mycorizza as well to improve the roots and
I will water them again with lots of Regulator(anti-stress) and Rhyzotonic( root stimilator).
Some days after that, they are ready to get pushed into flowering. Sativas like to grow twice and sometimes even more in size.
So the size which they are at the end of this week will be enough.
So at the end of this week you will see them being in 7L pots and in a bigger grow space under lots of lamps.
There are like 3-5 plants not growing nicely. Might have to kill them. I'm not going to waste time,energy,nutrients on those if they don't grow in size in a couple of days.
So might end up with just 235 plants.
Il update again at the end of this week.
Day 14:
I almost finished the rest of the grow room. I still need to adjust and replace the lamps some more and other things.
Did many defoliation below the plants. Thoose branches are never going to preduce nice and thick buds anyways. Such a waste of energy and nutrients.
Because of the removing of branches and leafs, They get a better airflow and better exposure of light as well.
So for now they look a little bit ugly haha and not so bushy anymore, but they will grow into fine looking ladies.
I kept 5 or 7 branches each plant and some bigger plants I even topped because I don't want them to stretch alot.
Another reason is that I want bigger stems. If other plants that didnt get topped, not improving stems I can still top them until the end of week 1 of flowering.
I'm putting them into flowering, by putting the lightschedule to 12hours of light and darkness. It will take a few days before they start preflowering.
The first buds will be seen in like 10-14 days.
Untill next week!

Very busy have some white Dynamite seedlings started for hopefully more feminised strains. My dream is to open a seed company and become the best seed supplier! Thanks for the views. Seeds should be on eBay by tommorow (regular ones)

Height :
SG number 6 - 93cm
SG numbers 2 and 3 - 52cm

Pics show 1.5 weeks from last post.
Really wish I could flip her into flower but still can't. I think she is begging to be flipped. So many pre-flowers. Wonder if pre-flowers in Vegg can get pollinated? This thing might get too big before I can flip.
Still growing so fast. Probably because I'm focusing all growth to the mainlined stems. Which are so tall now.
Most all leaves are dark. Going to start backing off the nitrogen (FF Grow Big) Also seeing tip burn, as well as edge burn on the leaves. Definitely over feed. The soil is probably caked with salt by now.
Stress techniques -
- Still super cropping all nodes every other day. See image on how big some of these knots get. All stems are super thick and hefty. Which was a goal of mine.
- Defoliation every other day. Taking leaves and new nodes off. Definitely think doing this almost every day is the worst stress its dealing with.
- Branch squeezing/tie down. Still noticing heavy scaring or buildup where I have it tied down at the base. Will keep it there to keep seeing what happens. All stems/branches around it have hardened. Also noticing red/purple streaks in areas. Wouldn't say it's the healthiest plant but it sure is a sturdy fast growing one.

Finally days with optimal climate, only half day cloudy with a little bit of rain
Coco fresh Is the only one who seems to attract animals,i think Is a fox
Everything looking fine with the others,smell Is now really strong, we are almost at the end
Se#1 gorilla z Is putting on some weight,colors are changing and the smell is becoming something loud,complex
Buds not looking the best in density but covered in trichomes so heavier than they look
#2 frostbanger better bud formation than any other autoflowering i growed ,even the bottom pop corn nugs are frosty so i cut a liittle sample
Smell Is super sweet,strong lemon scent
#3 Coco Milk not flowering yet but the plant looks amazing
Not much to say Is coming through very well,hope we will see pistils next time
#4 Coco fresh fighting to survive,another time i found the pot touched and soil dug
Not looking good but still growing so it's ok
Apricot not looking good too,It will be low yield
Buds will be 100% purple,at least aesthetically will become something different from the others
#5 Some samples ,first one frostbanger smelling loud,second gorilla z not the best but they are crappy pop corn nugs
Checked the trichomes gorilla z have some milky ones and barely any amber It has to go at least 1 week
Frostbanger barely any milk and not one amber at all,for a pop corn nug It Is pretty dense

PATIENCE, cooler temps and straight water for 2 weeks, girls smell sweeter each time I have a look inside.
getting close to $60 for 2 complete grows with my SF 2000. my next grow I will factor in all costs from dirt, seeds to all electricity and nutrients.
Some amber showing, wonโt be too much longer
Iโm ready but the girls have other plans apparently, so I wait...waiting for the sun, waiting for the sun....
2/28/21. .... well shit, the girls won't be ready together, which means I will need to use another tent to start drying. my place will be packed up in boxes ready for the movers except for a drying tent for the kush...its gonna be close.
Later that day... one plant harvested at 1.4lbs wet (22.5 oz)
Life is good

Itโs the 1st week of flower I flipped the plants to 12/12 a few days ago. There is a lot going on and a lot of cool and amazing things coming in the near future. Make sure to check out my YouTube page. I bought me a DJI gimbal this week. Might be my new favorite toy. The temps are starting to break for the summer. I donโt see it being very long until winter is here and itโs time to use a heater and not an ac unit. All of the plants are healthy. The plants have all grown so well I turned down the light intensity a bit today the plants didnโt seem like they was starting to strech very much. Hopefully the lower light intensity will make them strech out just a bit

Overall it was quite an easy grow, but one of the seeds had some kind of genetic disease so it looked very different to the rest and produced the least in the end.
Alpha: 16g
Bravo: 27g
Charlie: 19g
Delta: 19g
Echo: 33g
Total dry: 114g
It was very clear from the beginning of how Echo was trained that it will yield the most in the end. I need to try to replicate that during the next grows ๐
But overall this strain was very quick and produced extreeemely dense buds ๐

Hi all ๐งโ๐พ
Welcome to my ๐๐๐ week update.
Hope everyone keeping well and having a good week.
Thank you so much for your support on this bananas journey ๐๐๐๐
I am so happy to see how girls are developing in recent days. It's seems that Athena finally stopped her stretch and hoping that Xena will follow her sister very soon. Buds are gaining weight and size rapidly. Lots of nice colours and tonnes of trichomes on those buds already.
Week 10
Dec 18-24
Dec 18-19
Mainly observation. Xena is still stretching like crazy. both girls are developing beautifully.
Dec 20
First watering for this week. 7.5 ltr beetwen both. Runoffs PH's Athena 6.2 Xena 6.3.
Dec 21
Due to lack of light at lower parts of conopy decided for another selective defoliation, lowered a bit tallest branches with colas dangerously close to light by tieing them to netting. Couple cm will make a huge difference here. Could not clear well at the back wall of the cabinet due to limited access.I'm very happy with final result.
Dec 22-23
Joyful observation of my ๐๐๐girls development ๐งโ๐พ
Dec 24
All is looking great. It's seems that stretch is finally stopped. Girls looking healthy and happy.
Second watering for this week. 8 ltr beetwen both. Both runoffs PH 6.2.
It's the end of this week.
Happy Xmas everyone ๐คถ๐โ๏ธ๐โ๏ธโ๏ธ๐๐ฒ๐

Stay tuned for new week update โจ๐โจโ๏ธ๐
