-----IMAGES & VIDEOS-----
V1 - Transplanting day. I'm using 10 l Aeropots as final recipient. I've used:
- Small layer of ATAMI HydroRokz (perlite) at the bottom of the pot, just for cover bottom holes and to retain a bit of humidity
- Over the perlite i placed 1l of mixture with BioBizz "All Mix" and Volcanic Soil
- Again over, 1l of mixture with BioBizz "Light Mix" + Volcanic Soil & Guano
- And filled the rest with BioBizz "Light Mix" + Volcanic Soil
It's the second time that i broke half of the roots of a plant doing a transplant, It happened to me just for not being careful enough to hold the soil by the lower part. While this is no good, no further signs of that mistake other than the recorded video ;).
V2 - Quick show up on how to correct the color of photos taken under red/ping/purple light.
First I merge the HDR image from 3 bracketed shots, then I apply my custom color adjustment in the HDR resulting image.
As i show in the video, to correct the red light, you have to enhance the blue and green curves, just play with a point in the curves until you find the best adjustment for each of both curves. Then you should go to tones, and play a bit with reds, pinks & purples... and.... Voilá, you can see the results, easy and effective..... but no more easy than using the right white spectrum.

-----WEEK SUMMARY-----
This week was very easy, i didn't do anything to these babies apart from the transplant. This is the first time im mixing something with the soil, I hope not to overfeed the Cookies with the nutes, as i'm going to use the same nutrients i was using.
The first 10 days they were growing in my 60x60x40 tent (DP60), with a terrible chinese light that i always use the first week wen I plant.
PandaGrow 100W (50W draw) - http://www.pdgrow.com/index.php?m=Show&a=index&cid=12&id=53
So after transplanting when i place the plans under the Quantum Board or the Platinum LED, i've notice it on them immediately, they really don't like this kind of chinese lights.
Thus after the transplant the plants has started to grow and wide much more and much quickly.
-----WATERING CALENDAR-----
12/09/19 DAY 11 - 1,5 l after transplant with all week nutrients @ 0.8 EC & PH5.8
*****ESPAÑOL*****
-----IMÁGENES & VÍDEOS-----
V1 - Día de transplante. Transplantaré a AeroPots de 10 l. Para el transplante he usado:
- Una capa pequeña de ATAMI HydroRokz (perlita) en el fondo de los tiestos, sólo para cubrir los agujeros y retener un pelín de humedad.
- Encima de la perlita he puesto 1 l de mezcla de BioBizz "All-Mix" con tierra volcánica
- De nuevo encima he puesto otro litro de mezcla de BioBizz "Light-Mix" con guano y tierra volcánica
- El resto está relleno con una mezcla de BioBizz "Light-Mix" con tierra volcánica
Es la segunda vez que se me parter unas raíces por la mitad en un transplante, eso me pasa por no ser lo suficientemente cuidadoso como para agarrar el sustrato por su parte baja. Esto no es algo bueno, pero he de admitir que aparte del mal rato de que se te partan las raíces, a la planta no le sucede nada de nada, sigue creciendo al mismo ritmo que su hermana.
V2 - Un ejemplo rápido de como corregir la iluminación de una foto tomada bajo un espectro rosado o rojizo
En el vídeo primero compilo el HDR compuesto de 3 fotografías horquilladas y una vez compilado le aplico mi ajuste de color.
Como muestro en el vídeo, para corregir este tipo de luces hay que realzar las curvas de color azul y verde, simplemente con un punto por encima de la mitad de la línea media hasta encontrar los puntos más adecuados para tu luz. una vez encontrados, sólo hay que ir a los tonos y ajustar un poquito el rojo, rosa y morado.

P7 - Tierra volcánica y Guano
-----SUMARIO SEMANAL-----
Esta semana ha sido muy sencilla, no les he hecho absolutamente nada a las pequeñas a parte del transplante. Esta es la primera vez que mezclo algo con el sustrato y espero no sobrealimentar las cookies ya que voy a seguir usando los mismos nutrientes que he usado con anterioridad y de la misma manera.
Los primeros 10 días han crecido en mi tienda de 60x60x40 (DP60), con una luz china terrible:
PandaGrow 100W (50W draw) - http://www.pdgrow.com/index.php?m=Show&a=index&cid=12&id=53
Siempre uso esa luz los primeros días de cada cultivo, por lo que al cambiarlas a la Quantum o al Platinum LED lo noto al toque, realmente no les gusta nada la luz china esa, inmediatamente se ponen a crecer y ensanchar mucho mas.
-----CALENDARIO DE RIEGO-----
12/09/19 DÍA 11 - 1,5 l después del transplante con todos los nutrientes semanales @ 0.8 EC & PH5.8

6/8 Haven't had to water yet (besides the two tens and I should've held off). It's an overcast day. Perfect for the plants. I've noticed more off shoots of 3 pronged leaves so a few plants will reveg but thats fine. I'm happy with how things are going thus far. These are certainly very resilient strains. I've done some SLIGHT LSTing.
EDIT: IT'S BEEN A NICE DAY TODAY. A LITTLE OVERCAST BUT SUNNY AT TIMES. PERFECT WEATHER FOR THE GIRLS. THEY ARE LOVING IT OUT THERE!
6/9 And the girls are lookin' Fiiiiiine. In all seriousness everything is doing pretty good. Even that overwatered pink kush runt in the 10gal is coming out of its little funk. Some of my FIM's turned out amazing! With the reveg of some of these I'll definately have my hands full. Very grateful for smart pots and well draining soil! We've gotten some harsh rain but the girls all seem fine. It's the wind today that's a little worrisome. I may stop over later. I COULD put up tarps around the cage as wind blocks (and have before in the past) but it increases the humidity of an already extremely humid day. These girls are strong. I'm sure they'll be fine. I've found that the tarps typically hurt worse than they help.

Pure Ice cream close is doing great. I hst her canopy early week. I switched her light time to 12/12 today to get the flowering process going. I also trimmed out a lot of bottom growth and started defoliation on the dense canopy. I will be doing more in about 2 weeks. Mainly I am concerned with keeping her stretching down. So she don't get too close to the light. Every thing has been going well for most part. A few Challenges ahead, but I think I will get through them. Thank you Spider Farmer, and Pure Instinto Seeds. 🤜🏻🤛🏻🌱🌱🌱

Hey now, hope everyone is having a great weekend and staying safe. It was a great week for the 5 mainlines, they are all close to 20 inches tall, with 8 mains, and I decided to flip them all to flower today on day 49. If the ladies double in height by the end of the stretch, they should be around 40 inches tall and my lights are at 52 inches so that would give me about a foot between the canopy and the lights.
I am still feeding GH nutrients, silica, cal mag, and maxi grow. I will transition to flower nutrients in about a week. I have found that it is important to continue feeding plenty of Nitrogen through the stretch. The only way I would transition sooner is if I was running out of vertical space.
Still very happy with the Spectrum X from Medic Grow. I am running her at 69% and the plants seem very happy and healthy. The heat and humidity are finally letting up in my region so it is nice to be able to open some windows and drop the temp outside the grow tent.
I hope everyone has a great weekend, Thanks for stopping by, Stay Safe and Blaze On!!! 💪

Ab geht es in die nächste Woche alle Ladys machen hervorragende vortschritte in die breite. Zudem sind die Abstände der neuen Abzweigungen relativ gering und gleichmäßig.
Aktuelles setting:
18/6 Zyklus
60-75% Luftfeuchtigkeit
Temperaturen liegen zwischen 20 und 25 Grad regelmäßig.
Der Ventilator kommt täglich für 10 Std zum Einsatz allerdings noch gegen die Wand gerichtet damit die Luft Abprallen kann und frühstens 2 Std nachdem das Licht eingeschaltet wurde da die Ladys meiner Meinung nach den Tag nicht direkt mit Stress beginnen sollen :)
Zudem entwickelt sich bei einer Pflanze
(Welche vermutlich eine andere Sorte ist vom aussehen her) einen stark bekannten Haze Geruch der mich direkt zum lächeln bringt wenn ich sie besuche! :)
PPFD: 470
DLI: 30,5
LUX: 18.000
Kelvin: 5100
Dünger bisher nicht verwendet da sie noch frisch umgetopft sind und der Biobizz Light mix laut angaben und Infos von anderern Growern für 2-3 genug Nährstoffe besitzt.
Edit: 27.04.24 Eine Lady sieht krank aus :(

Did LST and topped Pheno 1 & 2, 3 is too funky to mess with. I think PH was just my issue and possible too high intensity light as I lowered to 60%, but also brought my PH to 6.5 so I'm guessing that helped too.

Last week for these ladies. Kept the soil moisture levels very low leading up and did a final heavy de leaf of pretty much anything that doesn’t have trichomes growing on it and will be shutting the lights and turning the heat off for the last 48 hours.
Keeping a lot of the sweet leaf on to keep the moisture throughout drying and will do a dry trim.
Will be aiming to have a long slow drying period (12-15 days hanging) before I jar them up for curing.
Won’t be adding many quality pictures this week since half the time they’re in the dark but will post harvest pictures as they come down :)

The weather has been terrible, with lots of rain and extremely high humidity. That's why I decided to harvest. I will be able to provide more information about the flavor in a few weeks but the smell was sweet and fruity.

Topped the plant in day 29 from seed.
Nutrients concentration is dropping 10-20 PPM every 1-2 days.
PH is drifting up every day, I have to drop the PH every 1 to 2 days.
Light intensity for this week is at 46% ( Fluence Spydr 2i) .
After toppling I dropped the light intensity to 36% for a day.

Week 8: Steady Bloom & Vacation Prep
Update: 10.07.2025 | Day 58
Weather stabilized around 25°C with occasional rain - ideal conditions. Gave another mild dose of dissolved Biotabs + Bokashi juice (1:100). Rain refilled water tanks just in time: Vacation coming up! Midweek my grow buddy takes over (fingers crossed).
Here are the main characters:
Forbidden Runtz
Pure bloom focus now - minimal height gain. Sugar leaves turning frosty daily. Aroma intensifies: Sweet candy meets earthy skunkiness (yes, we're making that a word!). Buds point skyward, thickening noticeably. Pistils showing beautiful color variations - not just white anymore.
Green Crack
Surprise performer! Bud structure defied expectations: Fewer sites but chunky indica-style nugs instead of wispy sativa candles. Already sticky to the touch with impressive frosting. That glorious mango scent is creeping in - imagine it at peak swell! Easily 3+ weeks left.
Bruce Banner
She's still stretching like your yoga teacher!
Not full bloom yet – new shoots exploding everywhere. Bud sites multiplying like rabbits. Light frost/mild smell now… but genetics don’t lie. FastBuds Tangie flashbacks intensify. This will be explosive soon.
Wrap-up:
This grow's the anti-stress champ compared to last year's coco/nutrient math marathon. Just observing, responding, and trusting the plants.
Low-budget (Bokashi juice and only 1 smashed biotab), high-satisfaction. Learned from 2024 but 2025? Pure joy.
I hasn't always to be complicated!
Catch y'all next week growmies

Well, I really didn't have to do much with this Gal. She is very low maintenance. Very fruity, smelly and is full bodied.
She lost some of her hardness after a 48hr dark rest, it has made her really sticky, and I was expecting this to happen as the leaf to calyx ratio is high in this pheno. But she makes up for it in smell, let's hope it tastes as nice. I'm not too worried About it not been, as the other 3 GFS I harvested were good, even if I marked 1 wrong.
Have hung dry this gal whole, I let it dry out in the coco and took it apart (the pot) and broke away the substrate to leave the roots and let it dry as natural as I can with no stress. This my 1st time doing this, have done it on all 3, so let's hope wasn't a bad idea, will update on smoke report as soon as she's dry.

23.3.25:
Hulkberry 💜💚 is sprouted, and now progressing well. It was a slow start, as I did not soak the starter plug and the seed kept drying out.
I also added more perlite than usual and so when I was watering the seed, everything was moving with the perlite.
Now that we have broken soil, I did need to remove the shell as it had dried out and became stuck. It came off easily enough, and I did not cause any damage to the plant.
The extra perlite should be fine now, as we have roots to keep us in place at last, as well as the starter plug.
When I get some more coco I will top dress, as the level of the soil has lowered since it was filled due to the extra perlite.
That probably won't be soon though. It will probably coincide with the normal top dress schedule.
The super soil mix I made was approximately constituted 8 gallons of;
☆ 60% Canna Coco
☆ 30% Perlite
☆ 9% Worm castings
☆ 1% Organic dry amendments.
- Ecothrive Life Cycle
- Ecothrive Charge
- Diatomaceous Earth
- Ground Cinnamon
- RHS Mycorrhizal Fungi granules
- Great White Mycorrhizal Fungi blend
Thanks for hanging out 🍃 ✌️ 💚 🙂
