Overall it was a great first time grow. The outcome was smaller than expected. This was caused by the heavy under watering, that stunted the growth of the plant. However the 26g of weed that I got from this harvest is amazing! Smoking is very smooth and the sativa effects are great.

Nothing to say really Most of the upper buds are very dense but the lower ones are still soft Trichomes still clear, i have a shitty magnifier 30x. Smell is strong and now the smell have a more cannabis smell mixed with blueberry

Yes it's a very confusing diary, spent to long in Cloner, no where to put her , moved to veg tent in small pot & neglected, hand watered when I remembered.her & another clone brought back from the brink of death & put into DWC , around 9 weeks old but looked about 3 weeks. HST trained them for about 5 to 6 weeks in veg, moved to flowering tent, were 5 weeks into flower & both got root rot.The 2nd plant died saved this 1 by cutting away majority of roots. No point continuing to flower her as she would have greatly been affected, so put her back into veg, transplanted into recirculating hydro & been reveging for 7 weeks 46 days. Started getting new vegative growth over the last month.looking healthy & lush now, planned to put her back into flower with the new plants when they are ready to flower, hopefully she will be worth the effort & time when it comes to harvest, sh is around 24 weeks old!!!

15th of October Sry for the delayed update, but was quite busy with my work lately. Anyway, on the 15th of October, it was the big day of harvesting this beauty. 6 1/2 months ago in April it germinated. And now after 9 weeks of flower finally it’s harvest time. The past 2 weeks the weather was nasty af. But this steadfast soldier was bravly withstanding this ass sucking conditions. Only few buds I had cut out because of mold. The rest has beautiful shiny milky trichomes that makes me happy😊. I think they would have needed 2 more weeks to really thicken up, but the weather is gonna be worst in the next weeks :(. So better chopped now. In the last weeks I was super worried to loose my whole harvest to the every day high humidity. I even wanted to chop it earlier. But got good recommendation from the community to be still patiened. That hint was very rewarding, Thanks guys. I will also make another week for the harvest, don’t worry 😊

Well it seems to be slowing down in length over the past few days, just hit 21". Hoping it doesn't get any taller as I've had to keep adding spacers to my spacebucket. I've still got some spots which I'm thinking could be light/heat stress. I'm adding cal-mag with my nutes at ph 6.3, flush a couple weeks back showed ph 6.3 runoff too so I believe it's not a lockout issue, hoping the community can chime in. Hoping to see the buds fill out more with some frosty leaves soon.

The cannabis strain Grape Guava can be a purple strain, depending on its specific phenotype and genetic makeup. While not all phenotypes of Grape Guava are purple, some variations, such as the Zatix Grape Guava, are noted for their striking purple appearance due to the genetic expression of anthocyanin pigments. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cKdVmdoKJ5k In a garden of green, Grape Guava gleams, With its fruity aroma, enchanting dreams. Clusters of grapes, guava's sweetness ignite, A strain so divine, in purple and white. Euphoria whispers, a lush fruity haze, Grape Guava's embrace, a tranquil daze. Off and away.@1400ppm. The increased CO2 allows plants to thrive at higher temperatures, which in turn necessitates higher humidity to maintain the ideal VPD for healthy growth and transpiration. 80F -5F = 75F LST with 70% RH = 0.72 kPa. Higher temperatures and humidity promote rapid growth, nutrient uptake, and photosynthesis while maintaining a lower stress level. Temperature influences the rate of enzymatic reactions involved in aerobic respiration. Enzymes, such as those involved in glycolysis, the Krebs cycle, and the electron transport chain, work most efficiently at an optimal temperature range. In low temperatures, enzymatic activity will slow down, thus reducing the rate of aerobic respiration. In high temperatures, enzymes can become denatured, thus impairing their function and stopping the process of aerobic respiration. Glucose is the primary fuel for aerobic respiration. The rate of aerobic respiration increases with the availability of glucose, as it is the starting point for glycolysis. If glucose levels are low, cells may rely on alternative energy sources such as fatty acids or amino acids , but these processes may yield less ATP or be less efficient. To determine this effect, carbon dioxide volume was measured (as carbon dioxide is an output of aerobic respiration) 18/6 with the 6 being IR. The near infrared (IR-a) borders around 700nm up to 1400nm @ photon par flux density of 1.8 instead of darkness, keeping temps overnight a neat 77F-80F. Think of my tent as a lung. What goes in must come out. When the rate of air going out exceeds the amount of air coming in, it creates a negative pressure. Tent concaves (bends in). If set up correctly, your RH will begin to drop slowly to the desired level you set, and the extraction turns off when it reaches 50% RH. The plant, as it performs cellular respiration, will always be releasing more water into the air, so the RH% of the tent overnight will always increase, so long as oxidative phosphorylation is occurring. As soon as the RH% creeps back up to 55%, the extraction turns back on, over and over. This creates a strong pressure differential which will work wonders on your grow. Replicating high and low-pressure fronts in nature. Critical for oxygen diffusion at the critical time of peak cellular respiratory function.. Moisture will not transfer from a saturated atmosphere to another if that air is already at or above its saturation point, meaning the air can't hold any more water vapor. Once I understood that water is produced as a by product during cellular respiration, specifically at the very end of the electron transport chain (ETC) where electrons are finally transferred to molecular oxygen, the higher the RH of the air, the more resistance there is for more moisture to be added to that environment, and effects the ease with which it does so. But none of that water comes from the pot; it's pulled from the air. If you run high daytime RH, your medium/pot is 100% reliant on transpirational root pull to move water. ZERO evaporation happens across the atmosphere if the tent air has high RH%, the medium cannot release its water through evaporation. Once a canopy develops, light no longer slowly wicks and evaporates from the topsoil. The Soil-Plant-Atmosphere Continuum (SPAC) describes the continuous pathway and process of water movement, driven by a gradient in water potential, from the soil, through the plant's roots, stem, and leaves, and finally evaporating into the atmosphere through transpiration. There is evaporation, there is transpiration, and then there is evapotranspiration; Evapotranspiration (ET) is the combined total of two processes: evaporation (water lost directly from soil and surface water into the atmosphere) and transpiration (water released from plants to the atmosphere through their leaves). Evapotranspiration represents the total amount of water that moves from the medium into the air. There is no such thing as a medium with too much water, only a medium that retains too much for too long. The water must always flow efficiently from one atmosphere(Medium) to another(Air) in a timely manner. Moisture is a critical factor for bacterial growth and decay. Dictating how long it's allowed to sit in any one location for any given period is a key preferred control. To ensure a net reduction in a bacterial population, the rate of removal (ET) must exceed the rate of bacterial growth (decay rate), which is often modeled as a growth rate for the specific bacterium under the given conditions. By optimizing daytime VPD, we also optimize conditions for bacterial growth to explode exponentially above 77°F.. If water is allowed to sit in a medium without an escape within a timeframe, nothing good will happen. IF High RH is maintained overnight as well as during the day, placing 100% of water movement at the behest of daytime transpiration, roots can only pull where they can reach, and if soil is compressed above a certain point, moisture will become trapped in a medium with no way of moving day or night. This will begin the countdown for decay to take hold. When water stagnates in a medium, it loses oxygen, creating anaerobic conditions that foster the growth of harmful microorganisms like bacteria and fungi, which can produce toxins and disease vectors. Thigmomorphogenesis, the process by which plants respond to mechanical stimuli like touch by altering their growth and development, results in significant morphological changes to improve survival against mechanical perturbations. This complex response involves sensing touch and initiating physiological and genetic responses, leading to changes in form and structure over days or weeks. The process is triggered by physical forces such as wind, rain, or touch. Plants adapt to these stimuli by changing their shape and structure, which may include slower growth, thickened stems, or altered leaf development. Plants possess sophisticated mechanisms to detect even subtle mechanical stimuli and initiate responses. A variety of molecules, including calcium ions, jasmonates, ethylene, and nitric oxide, are involved in signaling these mechanical inputs. Touch can induce the expression of genes that encode proteins for calcium sensing, cell wall modification, and defense mechanisms. A plant exposed to constant wind may become shorter and sturdier. A plant that is touched frequently might grow more slowly to conserve energy and develop thicker cell walls. These changes increase a plant's resilience and ability to survive in harsh environments. Let's get Thiggy with it.

In die letzte Woche der Mädels gehen wir mit wunderbaren Bildern mit einem kleinen Video. Die Pflanzen bekommen außer Licht und Liebe nichts mehr. Nach den Erkenntnissen von Sunlight steigert es die Qualität der Blüten enorm, wenn man in der letzten Woche den Pflanzen kein Wasser mehr gibt und sie somit langsam im Topf vertrocknen. Die Trichome sind schon circa zu 50 % milchig, ich hoffe dass sie sich bis Ende der Woche hin so entwickeln, dass ungefähr 10 % davon Bernsteinfarben sind. Vermutlich wird in vier Tagen geerntet Wie zu sehen ist, sind die Blüten nicht extrem dick aber ich denke für die Voraussetzungen, die die Pflanzen hatten ein schönes Ergebnis bisher. 10.10 Nach 6 Tagen ohne Wasser stehen die Damen immer noch ziemlich stramm da und werden täglich harziger 🤩

UPDATE : Very aggressive defoliation was needed, (Week 4 day 27 ) room is only 3x5and was very full My goal is having a grow that is easy to maintain with Nice big passages UPDATE: They are showing no damage from the defoliation. The Canopy is growing back quite fast , alot easier to deal with but next grow probably only go with 4 plants , 2 white widows , 2 blueberrys. I haven’t decided lst or top , SUGGESTIONS???? Update: Day 34 -removed aprox 30 sun leafs

Day 79. 3 liters go in. Girl got small haircut, fades quick and not nice, but i chosen that way without nutes and i stick to it. She is most behind, still has 14+ days till chop. Stinks, swapped her place in tent with Kush. Mars hydro TS 1000 works perfectly ! Happy Growing !!!

Week Three im happy with the random seed, I see not much of a difference yet, they all look indica or indica-dominant. one plant is most vigorous, all but one are all growing nice. I also popped one seed of fastbuds fast flowering seeds: gorilla cookies, orange sherbert and gg4 sherbert. Everything going nice in week three, seedlings coming along. they will need transplanting soon, but I'm still hoping to see some sex before that, so I can sort out male plants. I am also not sure if the random seed are autos or photoperiod. I still decided that I will top all plants to give the seedling a little time to catch up some more. this week was feeding time. I feed the plants with a biotabs alternative. im not 100% sure with this, but the biovin is used as the startrex, colonize as the bactrex and the bottled nutrients are the orgatrex. two tabs in 11l / 3 gal pots. these nutrients take some time to work. I use biobizz allmix and we transplanted around one week ago. maybe that's a little bit early, but I think it will be fine. in the End of Week 3 I can't see any burns. some nice fungus formed, so I think the nutrients doing its things. i plan to level up my LST-Skills with the random seed plants and probably don't do a lot on the fastbuds plants to even out the difference in lifetime, so that will mean I maybe get less harvest from the fastbuds plants, but that fine for me. we will see how it turns out. thx for checking out my grow, im a first time grower, but I feel like I have earned some knowledge In the last years by educating myself, so I hope the grow is interesting for all the nicely growers here. I don't aim to do everything perfectly, at least I don't monitor everything but I do my best to keep the plants happy and in a good place to grow and flower.

Day 44 - 15.12 - The flowering is begening but she's a bit shy like if she wanted to take her time. She received a tea spoon of Mr.B's Bloom to give her more energy for that flowering phase. The vertical growth looks stoped compared to the past weeks/days She's not getting much taller so this is time to produce buds ✌️🏼😁 A bit of rain did water the pot like you can see on the video. ------- Day 45 - I don't remember if I told you about my Gsc clones I did take about 10 days ago , maybe less. So they are now rooted and I transplanted them in 3L pots with a good amount of Mr.B 's Growth ( 2 teaspoon and a half each) in attempt to make the grow big the faster I can due to the fact they are autos they will tend to induce flowering quickly. ------- Day 46 - Xmas is coming so she needed a fresh style 🌲

Hey folks, sorry for the late week update. Life happens haha. I finaly water the plants today with the usual 50mL of molassas to 5 gal of dechlorinated water. I topped the leading colas and defoliated the plant a little. Next update I will be top dressing with 2-3tbs of 70/30 4-4-4/2-8-4 gaia green mix. I will also be topping off of the soil levels. Plants are very bushy!
