Special Christmas Stress would be last weeks summary. Still trying to figure out what the hell is happening to my plants. As there are some major problems appearing on one of them and symptoms on all of them. It looked like there were too much nutes so I tried to flush them out with water. Still the problem went on. Then I started to add calmag since 2 plants went too white. Which appearently is iron defficiency. After 4 days I’m starting to add full nutes but now I’m not regulating ph but leaving it for 7.9 since my runoff water is about 5.8 and probably locking out K N and P. Will see how this will roll out. Also made a simple DIY scrog net for the tallest plant. And ordered microscope.

Happy New Year!!! Over the past week I did some HST bending on my photos and cut down 2 of the 3 Blackberry’s. The branches are starting to recover and straighten out after the HST now. I still have some issues with pale leaves and a few spots here and there. I’m going to try adding some Dolomite Lime with the next watering and think that should help with the paleness. I’m also going to up the amount of CalMag and Mammoth P to see if that helps with the spotting. I’m not sure if I should see the spotted leaves recover or if the spots will remain. I suspect the spots will remain on the existing leaves regardless of what I do at this point, but hopefully no new spotting will develop. The lights went off before I was done taking pics, so some pics will look a little different. The pics with the lights on I had to color correct, they still look a little more on the yellow side than in reality, but much closer to reality than the pre-color corrected versions. Once the lights went off I turned the flash on for my camera, those pics did not need any color correction. You can see the differences in the pics of all plants, the first 2 are color corrected with the lights on, the last 2 are taken with a flash and no color correction. Also all close up pics of the Critical+ are with the lights off and flash on. I read several books on cannabis over the past few days, some good, some not so much. One that I liked was “Marijuana Cultivation Reconsidered: The Science and Techniques For Huge Indoor Yields” by Read Spear. This book is available on Amzon’s Kindle Unlimited service, which costs $9.99/month, but they offer a free 30 day trial (which is what I’m using at the moment). Reed’s book is broken down into 3 sections, the first and third go fairly deep into the science behind growing, he does a pretty good job at breaking it down in easy to understand terms, but I had to read several sections 2 or 3 times to really get it (or just move on with as much understanding as I could digest). The second section is the nuts and bolts of growing. Most was a review but there were several topics he touched on I hadn’t thought of in a while. And again its well written. He also offers the section only in a separate book called “Small Spaces, Big Yields”. If you are not interested in going deeper into the science behind growing, “Small Spaces, Big Yields” is what I would recommend (if interested in reading books on cannabis). I took some notes while reading and I’m going to add some of these notes in my dairy updates over the next few weeks. This week I’m going to include a note on electrical, this should be a fairly basic concept, but it is super important IMO… “Electrical Items In a sealed grow room or in a tent, you will have water pooling on the floor from time to time. There is no avoiding this. Mop it up when you see it, and never put your electrical gear directly on the floor. Never. Not even for a moment. In fact, let me stress this point in bold capital letters. ALL ELECTRICAL GEAR MUST BE MOUNTED SECURELY ON A WALL OR TENT POLE.” -Read Spear I’ll add more did bits like this in my diaries over the upcoming weeks. If anyone has any good book recommendations please let me know in the comments. I’m looking for books that might not be as popular as the ones by Jorge Cervantes or Ed Rosenthal (I’ve read those). I did just order “True Living Organics” by The Rev which I’m looking forward to reading. But I’m looking for more. I really want to step it up and learn as much as possible. Your comments, feedback and recommendations are very much appreciated! Until next time, Happy Growing! Stay Positive! And have an amazing 2019!!!

WEEK 6 -TIME TO DECIDE THE KEEPER PHENO ⭐️NUTRIENTS USED THIS WEEK⭐️ Front Row Ag Part A 2.8g per gallon Front Row Ag Part B 1.9g per gallon Front Row Ag Phoszyme.4g per gallon Front Row Ag Bloom 2.2g per gallon Front Row Ag CleanUp .2g per gallon End of week I will try to defoliate as much as possible one last time going into last 3 weeks. It has been a good run thus far. I’m contemplating just leaving them alone and not defoliating, but it’s what I’ve always done with great success. I was asked earlier in the week if I always keep my ph this low(5.5-5.6)? The short answer is yes. I’ve always done this and have never had a ph problem or nutrient lockout. If I tested the runoff solution, most people would freak out. Maybe I’ll do it in next weeks video…I bet it’s triple my input solution!!! I’ve trained these plants since seedling to take high nutrients and it’s paid off. Super Lemon Haze is a 9 week strain but I would bet they will go a full 10 weeks. I’m gonna push the last few weeks and put on the weight. I am shooting for 3 pounds per light. We will see. Thanks again for all the comments and questions. See you next week.

After experimenting with various brands of nutrient formulations and concentrations.. the plant is showing improved health. The root zone has become too dense for consistent flood levels even with the same number of seconds for the pump ON cycle. The solution is now fed through the pipe which is reduced to the smaller feeder line to fill the nutrient solution at at the top of the container which is gravity fed back into the reservoir. The original air stone is used to prevent the roots escaping the container and entering into the nutrient tank solution. The only way to remove the roots is to let them dry out and shrink enough for easy withdrawal from the container. The video shows very slow drainage due to the barbed pipe attachement beging submerged below the top of the nutrient level. It was removed to facilitate quicker drainage. I just noticed that I swore in the video as I was still playing with the timer ON setting and had to quickly unplug the electricity manually in order avoid an overflow... 😂

added Co2 and they have shown significant growth! No purple yet!!

This week, I started to notice deficiencies. Struggled to specifically diagnose them and I'm still not entirely sure I have... but I believe they're calcium deficiencies from watering with Reverse Osmosis H20. So, I brewed a compost tea for veg plants, and added some extra calmag. They seem to be responding well. Also started low stress training this week.

Got a new light this week, it's basically a HLG 260 R-Spec except locally manufactured using the same Samsung LEDs. Big Mumma got her 60x60cm tent today and will go in there under one Viparspectra 300W blurple (130w from the wall). I trimmed her, super cropped her main stem and added a scrog net in preparation of flowering her in the next couple of days. Because my other plants were getting up past 75cm after 7 days of flower (100cm is my absolute max) , I decided to supercrop the canopy back down to about 60-65cm - it was pretty scary and I definitely broke the outer stem on some of them. Also gave them a good trim. Fortunately most bounced back strong the next day which are the most up-to-date photos you see (17/4/20).

Inizio settimana 2 di fiori tutto procede bene.....la più piccola ha più o meno due settimane in meno della pianta po' ou grande.. stanno crescendo non troppo alte.. piuttosto sono ben compatte. Sicuramente anche le cime(fiori) saranno belli massicci compatte e soprattutto che sia una buona terapia 😉💪

Fast and easy harvesting. I let it dry before trimming to make this part easier. We did earlier defoliation and gentle lollipoping so there wasn't too much work left after that. I would have liked to give it a few more weeks of ripening but it started to get too hot. Very pleased with the result and I think it can be given even more potential!

Cantaloupe haze needed a good flush brought runoff from 2000 ppm to 1100ppm will continue to monitor.

Plants are currently drying 2+ months later. And next project au79

Tag 11 Pflegebericht 🌱 Heute gab’s wieder was zu trinken für die Kleinen. 💧 Pro Liter habe ich 1 ml Fish-Mix und 2 ml Bio-Heaven dazugegeben, pH wie immer schön auf 6,5 angepasst. Jede Pflanze hat ca. 300 ml bekommen nur die Dame in der Mitte durfte sich über 500 ml freuen. 🥤 Man sieht richtig, wie sie sich Tag für Tag entwickeln. 🌿✨ Ich finde, sie machen sich schon jetzt richtig super und das ist erst der Anfang. 🚀 Bleibt gespannt, was die nächsten Tage bringen Wachstum liegt in der Luft! @gfseedbank @biobizzwwo @iban.biobizz

Slowly getting the potential ready

Flush.lavaggio

The nuggets are very sticky and compact, they are frosty as hell and the aroma is very strong already. I loved this strain. She's such an amazing autoflowering strain. Very powerful.

Super sticky with insane terps.🔥🔥🔥🔥
