Harvest time for Green Crack! Another successful run of this strain! While she is a bit nutrient hungry, she's been a pleasure to grow. Mars-Hydro TSW2000 killed it with this plant & grow, definitely happy with the performance of the light! Will update in 7-10 days with dry weight. Update July 1, 75 grams dry and not much flavor, will let it cure for a few weeks, then hopefully it'll have some flavor. Thanks for stopping by growfessors πŸ‘½πŸŒ³πŸ’š

White dots on a couple leaves? From what I read I’m thinking pests? Can’t see anything though. Feeding daily with half the recommended dose. Switched to 15 gl pot in coco. Topped and pruned. 7 hours direct sun and then mostly shade.

2 strawberry banana didnt make it sadly so ive replaced with 2x fast buds - Strawberry gorilla. Hopefully they work out but will be 7-10days behind the 2 poundcake and 1 sour crinkle Update 2x strawberry gorilla have been planted into their forever home Poundcake 1 is on day 3 and Poundcake 2 and sour crinkle are day 2 😁 2x Strawberry gorilla just had their helmet taken off πŸ˜‚ 15/07/25 From what I can tell spiderfarmers PPFD maps are way off. Even ramping up the power to 50% at 12" has only just stopped them from reaching for the stars... I wondered why my last turned into jack and the beanstalk πŸ˜‚ Its a shame because the lights promise much more than they offer. I was planning on buying a full spiderfarmer setup and godknows how many more in the future but I think they have lost me as a buyer.

πŸ‘‹Top is a clean cut, no confusion for the plant, road ahead is clear, by completely removing the main growth tip, the auxin source is eliminated. The plant permanently halts vertical growth from that main stem and immediately sends its energy and hormones to the two new, evenly spaced branches just below the cut. Fimming slightly different because a small tuft of the top growth is left behind, the auxin disruption is temporary and less severe. The plant recovers more quickly and sends its energy to multiple surrounding growth points, often creating four or more new shoots from the same spot. It will eventually regain some vertical dominance after a few weeks if left to its own devices, but with a little more LST, bending the apex to the same height as the rest of the internodes, this shatters dominance, hopefully creating around 8-9 main shoots growing at equal height once recovered and grown out. Reduced environmental intensity for now and let her focus on dealing with this new stress for a week or two. When H+ ions are added to soil, the first nutrient displaced from exchange sites is typically aluminum (Al3+), if it's present, followed by calcium (Ca2+), magnesium (Mg2+), and potassium (K+), because aluminum and these base cations have different binding strengths. The order of displacement depends on the lyotropic series, where ions with a higher positive charge and those with weaker binding strengths are displaced first. The specific order of nutrient displacement is determined by the lyotropic series, which ranks the strength with which cations are adsorbed by soil particles: Al3+: Most strongly adsorbed, so if present, it will be displaced by H+ ions, leading to increased solubility of aluminum and potential plant toxicity. Ca2+: Displaced next, as it is more strongly bound than Mg2+ or K+ but less than Al3+. Mg2+ and K+: Displaced after Ca2+. The displaced nutrients can be lost from the root zone through leaching, becoming unavailable to plants. As H+ ions increase, the proportion of acid cations (H+ and Al3+) on the exchange sites increases, while base cations (Ca2+, Mg2+, K+) decrease, resulting in a lower soil pH. The amount of photosynthesis (water splitting) directly determines the availability of H+ ions (protons) in a plant. 90% of water is for cooling of photosynthetic apparatus the other 10% is split for its H+ among others things. Carbon sugars, like glucose, do oxidize in soil through a process primarily driven by microorganisms, which break down these sugars for energy. This oxidation converts the sugars into carbon dioxide (CO2) through cellular respiration, a key part of the soil carbon cycle, though some carbon may also be incorporated into soil organic matter. The rate and extent of sugar oxidation depend on factors like oxygen availability, the presence of Fe oxides, and soil redox conditions, which can all influence the process. My understanding of why we flush. Just plain water, what does it do? Strips the medium of salts and nutrients making it empty. What does that do? Triggers nutrient recycling within the plant. What's nutrient recycling? It is a natural part of plant senescence, which can be triggered once you know the switches. A 24:1 carbon-to-nitrogen ratio will also trigger. Why won't it trigger autophagy for me? Nitrogen needs to be gone, gone, gone almost. Ammoniacal (organic) nitrogen takes 4-5 times more water to separate it from soil particles than nitrates so what happens is most people jist flush the nitrates, leave all the ammoniacal in there and this prevents autophagy initiating. Nitrogen decays differently depending on its form during the dry. Ammoniacal nitrogen will oxidize in the air, leaving no trace. But nitrates do no decay and turn volatile and smelly and remain trapped until smoked, no matter how long you cure it does not oxidize. This is why you need to trigger it and begin the denitrfication process prior to harvest to get rid of all the nitrates. Otherwise, you will smoke it. Flush till autophagy begins, just make sure you add no nitrogen afterwards. Micronutrients for trichomes. Don't leave the medium empty for 2 weeks, that does nothing but reduce yield 10%ish. Trichomes are another thing. Trichomes themselves are not directly affected by flushing; rather, flushing affects the plant's nutrient uptake, which influences the development and final state of the trichomes. Trichomes are filled with antioxidants in the last weeks, which is what makes them cloudy. A lot of the processing of antioxidants requires energy and nutrients (mostly micronutrients ), so you don't want that soil empty for 2 weeks, you just want the carbon nitrogen ratio 24:1and no higher. She still wants what she needs to ripen. Processing antioxidants is energy-intensive; heat and light accelerate the rate at which THC converts to CBN. This is why you lower DLI, lower temps. By doing so, you reduce the oxidative workload caused by photosynthesis, which opens up the oxidative capacity for the production of antioxidants. THC is mostly processed at night when the plant's oxidative capacity is generally moreso "free and available" for work

😍😍😍 Everyones favorite time has arrived. The flowers have started plumping and the frost caking on. The trichs are so long its crazy!! Like hair on tarantula legs!!! The flowers look great and appear to be getting nice and dense. I do want to see peoples opinions on when they remove added co2 from the tent. I should be about 14-21 days away from harvest with my guess closer to 21. I was told to take out the co2 two weeks before harvest by one person. Another says they leave it til the end, he has some damn nice flowers so its hard to argue lol what do you do?? Heres to a smooth finish!! One thing that i think happened was phosphorous toxicity in the one plant. I think thats what i read awhile ago for why it has the brown hairs like that compared to the other 5 plants. is that corrrect?

Good morning ! Today is day 36 of flower- still on cruise control with not much going on! The ladies are smelling like tropical fruit and sour peach candy now with def some gas , really strong! The flowers are starting to chunk up a lot especially the permafrost flowers! All I’ve been doing is my usual every other watering rotation with fish shit and silica and they got the every third week dose of recharge! This starts week 6 so will prob be my last week of all those things! Not much else to report and I’ll see you all next week, thanks for reading

Nematodes inoculated. Topped, I'll probably start quad-lining it soon. Clone started in soil (mulched with its own chopped leaves). The cover crops are invading this little garden. It doesn't show but it has already been trimmed last week. Radishes will be harvested in about 10 days, it'll make some more room for basil that I'm propagating for this tent. [Done] I'll be applying a seeds sprouts tea this week end or early next week (I haven't soaked the seeds yet πŸ˜…). [Done] Place training frame for LST on the quadline Side note: this young plant is slowly starting to smell like potential goodeness πŸ˜‰

Week has been ok, did what I’m guessing was the final tuck into the Scrog net. Will give another couple of weeks and then do second defoliation. Managed to control what was probably a pythium outbreak.. used great white enzymes and another enzyme/bacteria mix and it cleared up and ph stabilised within a day or so.

Leaves are showing a late stage magnesium deficiency, been keeping the magnesium lower than Calcium because I’m trying to keep a balanced nutrition as per normal feed programs but I think next grow, I’ll be adding more magnesium than calcium throughout flower. Leaves probably have a bit of heat, light, wind problems going for them too. Day 35 - WEEK 6 changes for PK boost. New reservoir today; Drained reservoir, Added 64F degrees tap water, Drained reservoir, Added 64F degree RO water, 20 grams Calcium Nitrate 20 grams Jacks Hydro 20 grams Magnesium Sulphate 300 mL H2O2 200 mL Mighty Flower Enhancer 150mL Headmasta 125mL Fulvic Acid 20mL Humic Acid 100mL Purpinator 100mL Sweet Citrus pH 6.5 ppm 1550

2024-08-06 They began brilliantly, with every seedling emerging to greet the world. Their journey continued with remarkable performance, thriving in every environment they faced. From their first moments in the nursery, to their time in the adolescent chamber, and even weeks outdoors braving cold and rainy days, these resilient plants rose to every challenge. No matter where they were placed, they flourished with unwavering determination. Their final stage in the flowering room was a testament to their strength and adaptability. For me, they proved to be a joy to cultivate. The key to their success? Simply providing ample water, especially during the crucial final flowering phase. The result? Luscious bud formations adorning the colas, a sight that filled me with pride and satisfaction. I'm thrilled with the outcome of this grow. Stay tuned for the smoking report, where I'll delve into the nuances of the buds' aroma and flavor profile. Smokereport does not work so i do it manually Apricot Oreoz are classified as " hard Hitter" and thats what they are, indeed. i gave some testers away and i got one uniquie Response. smoking one bowl and your day is done. i mean up to 5 hours couchlock. not my kind of desire. but there are surely PPl who need it, and like it best for medical purpose, you sleep like a Baby, your stress is gone, and pain sleeps too perfect for that nice yield and very good for extracts

06.11.2025 Last week was really busy for me, but it was not because of this beautiful couple of Agent Orange. The male moved to the window and is developing very nice. She, the female Agent, stayed in the tent and went on with her stretch. I took off many leaves and am trying to keep her inner circle exposed to the light. So happy to watch them grow 🌸 09.11.2025 Oh, she is sooo beautiful and yellow (!) flowers are appearing. I'm flashed by her stunning beauty, observing these little yellow spots showing in the centers of her flowers. This is such an surprising effect, that you wouldn't believe it if not seeing it with your own eyes. Impressive! πŸ’œ
