9/29 102 days old. First day of the 5th week. These buds are coming on like a madwoman. Fed her today fox farm beasti bloomz, blackstrap molasses and Remos natures candy. Buds smell amazing and are very firm. I’m bad at describing smells. Definitely smell the lemon. Can’t really place anything else other than goodness. 9/2 104 days old. Watered today. Leaves are getting frosted and purple. Buds are very sticky. 9/3 she is putting on weight. No diet for this lady.

Day 84 from seed Each auto is in different flowering weeks So post is sorta confusing as my first diary Sorry! Everything seems to be doing good. Just been feeding water since last update. I will have new lights soon 4800 evo from mars hydro 2024 version planning to harvest the GDP before switching the lights out.

Gratitude. Gave her another application of Gibberelin, same as before. 13% of UV light that hits the exclusion zone of water creates a coherent domain, creating almost 1million almost free electrons, using quantum mechanics it reduces the density of water. Anyone who has ever watched a school of fish in the ocean can understand what coherence is. Each fish is free to move independently, yet the group responds simultaneously—as a whole. It is as though the fish follow an unseen conductor, yet no conductor exists. In the world of physics, this kind of relationship is referred to as quantum coherence. At the smallest (quantum) level, there is unity and cooperation (coherence). This allows individual components to respond together as a larger unit. Nature uses a combination of forces to establish and to sustain coherence. Cyclic or spiral movement is paramount. When water molecules cycle within electromagnetic fields, they are forced to align and re-align within the field. This is because water is a polar substance—with a positive and a negative pole. Each cycle refines the structure of the system. Eventually, water molecules “find their place” within a coherent domain and even though molecules may occasionally be relocated, the system as a whole, is not disturbed. The same is true within a school of fish. Predators can temporarily disturb the organization. However, it does not take long before organization re-establishes itself. This is coherence. Water responds very similarly in its living state. It has been shown that liquid water can be considered as two-phases system composed of a coherent phase, in which the molecules oscillate in tune with an electromagnetic field within macroscopic regions called “coherent domains” and non-coherent vapor-like fraction, including uncorrelated molecules. Furthermore, such domains, due to the coherent dynamics, are the pools of quasi-free electrons forming cold coherent vortices upon an energy intake from the outside. Such electrons, in turn, form a plasma that, under suitable conditions, can itself become coherent and oscillate in tune with electromagnetic fields trapped inside it. We will show in this paper that if two or more plasma contained in water coherent domains interact each other, they can adaptively self-adjust their own oscillations in order to synchronize so creating a network of coherent domains oscillating in tune. Depending on the system’s parameters, different clusters of coherent domains, at different space-time scales, can appear. We finally show how this feature could be exploited and used to realize novel advanced quantum information and computational systems and quantum neural networks. What can I do to increase the rate of cellular respiration? We are adding more reactants, like glucose. Photosynthetic efficiency is the fraction of light energy converted into chemical energy during photosynthesis in green plants and algae. The simplified chemical reaction can describe photosynthesis 6 H2O + 6 CO2 + energy → C6H12O6 + 6 O2 where C6H12O6 is glucose (which is subsequently transformed into other sugars, starches, cellulose, lignin, and so forth). The value of the photosynthetic efficiency is dependent on how light energy is defined – it depends on whether we count only the light that is absorbed, and on what kind of light is used (see Photosynthetically active radiation). It takes eight (or perhaps ten or more) photons to use one molecule of CO2. The Gibbs free energy for converting a mole of CO2 to glucose is 114 kcal, whereas eight moles of photons of wavelength 600 nm contains 381 kcal, giving a nominal efficiency of 30%. However, photosynthesis can occur with light up to wavelength 720 nm so long as there is also light at wavelengths below 680 nm to keep Photosystem II operating (see Chlorophyll). Using longer wavelengths means less light energy is needed for the same number of photons and therefore for the same amount of photosynthesis. For actual sunlight, where only 45% of the light is in the photosynthetically active wavelength range, the theoretical maximum efficiency of solar energy conversion is approximately 11%. In actuality, however, plants do not absorb all incoming sunlight (due to reflection, respiration requirements of photosynthesis, and the need for optimal solar radiation levels) and do not convert all harvested energy into biomass, which results in a maximum overall photosynthetic efficiency of 3 to 6% of total solar radiation. If photosynthesis is inefficient, excess light energy must be dissipated to avoid damaging the photosynthetic apparatus. Energy can be dissipated as heat (non-photochemical quenching), or emitted as chlorophyll fluorescence. Starting with the solar spectrum falling on a leaf, 47% lost due to photons outside the 400–700 nm active range (chlorophyll uses photons between 400 and 700 nm, extracting the energy of one 700 nm photon from each one) 30% of the in-band photons are lost due to incomplete absorption or photons hitting components other than chloroplasts 24% of the absorbed photon energy is lost due to degrading short wavelength photons to the 700 nm energy level 68% of the used energy is lost in conversion into d-glucose 35–45% of the glucose is consumed by the leaf in the processes of dark and photorespiration Stated another way: 100% sunlight → non-bioavailable photons waste is 47%, leaving 53% (in the 400–700 nm range) → 30% of photons are lost due to incomplete absorption, leaving 37% (absorbed photon energy) → 24% is lost due to wavelength-mismatch degradation to 700 nm energy, leaving 28.2% (sunlight energy collected by chlorophyll) → 68% is lost in conversion of ATP and NADPH to d-glucose, leaving 9% (collected as sugar) → 35–40% of sugar is recycled/consumed by the leaf in dark and photo-respiration, leaving 5.4% net leaf efficiency. Far-red In efforts to increase photosynthetic efficiency, researchers have proposed extending the spectrum of light that is available for photosynthesis. One approach involves incorporating pigments like chlorophyll d and f, which are capable of absorbing far-red light, into the photosynthetic machinery of higher plants. Naturally present in certain cyanobacteria, these chlorophylls enable photosynthesis with far-red light that standard chlorophylls a and b cannot utilize. By adapting these pigments for use in higher plants, it is hoped that plants can be engineered to utilize a wider range of the light spectrum, potentially leading to increased growth rates and biomass production. Green Green light is considered the least efficient wavelength in the visible spectrum for photosynthesis and presents an opportunity for increased utilization. Chlorophyll c is a pigment found in marine algae with blue-green absorption and could be used to expand absorption in the green wavelengths in plants. Expression of the dinoflagellate CHLOROPHYLL C SYNTHASE gene in the plant Nicotiana benthamiana resulted in the heterologous production of chlorophyll c. This was the first successful introduction of a foreign chlorophyll molecule into a higher plant and is the first step towards bioengineering plants for improved photosynthetic performance across a variety of lighting conditions. Photosynthesis by day, Cellular respiration by night. Co2 doesn't change the parameters of the environment that are suitable for the plant. Co2 increases the efficiency with which the plant captures carbon from the air and mixes with water using stored energy from photosyynthesis into carbo(sugar)hydrates(water). Max energy a plant can convert in any one cycle is 40 mole per day at 400 ppm. 60 mole per day at 12-1800 ppm. Notice that light intensity, carbon dioxide concentration, and temperature are the three main factors that impact photosynthesis. Greater light intensity leads to higher photosynthesis rates, as does increased carbon dioxide concentration. Temperature is also directly linked to the rate of respiration Q10 Temperature coefficient. This is a key factor affecting photosynthesis. Low CO2 affects the Calvin Cycle. If CO2 levels are low, rubisco cannot convert RuBP to GP in step one of the Calvin Cycle. This leads to the accumulation of RuBP and an overall slowing of the Calvin Cycle, which results in a fall in the production of TP/GALP. CO2 is not needed at night so turn it off. Nights should be focused on respiration and dealing with excess moisture spat into the air all night long, keeping ambient canopy RH 40-45%. This keeps a constant negative pressure overnight. Oxygen is what a plant needs at night, only oxygen diffuses into the leaves and only carbon dioxide diffuses out. Vpd is just a measure of temperature and humidity. The drier the air the more space it has to spit more moisture out. As soon as those lights go out she is just spitting moisture. All the energy the plant collects during the day must be processed overnight. Grow tents at night reaching upward of 65%RH or thereabouts things start to drift from optimal. If the plant only converts a percent of all the energy it gathered during the day and doesn't process it all that night, the plant keeps a surplus which will detract from the next day's DLI. I was surprised, stunned even at how much more water she needed to maintain the intense daytime cooling. Daytime priority is keeping temps under 86 and hitting a DLI of 40-60moles, supplement CO2. Nighttime is about maxing out the rate of respiration and getting rid of water ASAP. To make use of all the energy stored in the stems the plant needs to convert a lot of the stored energy to sugars then the plant mixes them with nutrients to make more complex cells, more nutrients, and more water until there is no energy left stored in those stems. If we don't optimize night cycle, like everything else with cannabis plants, the entire production of the plant as a whole will bottleneck at the place in the line that is least efficient. At night If you can stick to 40-45%RH, you should keep semi-optimal turgor pressure, negative pressure, and humidity for quick removal of water vapor generated under the stomata. Keeping 40-45 % should mean keeping temps around 73-83 and keeping your VPD in the "green" for most of the flowering period. I kinda think of it like PH, in that 6.5 is not the best for every nutrient but it's about balance across the spectrum of variables. VPD is similar. Becomes very hard to micro-manage if you focus on too many controllers its hard to keep everything perfect always. You can't keep it perfect 100%, all the time, well you can but the electrical cost of doing so very quickly changes your mind as electrical components sensors start fighting each other and cycling 24/7. I made the decision to pack everything the plant will ever need and then some into the soil, letting the plant dictate its own feeding schedule based on the demand the environment places on it.

Start of week 9 Runtz Muffin got the cut this morning. Put the whole plant to hang dry, i just removed some of the bigger leaves, since plant grew really compact. Drying now for the first 3 days at 56% and 17C, after that 60% and 16C, for at least 8 days. Overall i was really pleased with this strain, Barneys did a great job and you can see their genetics are strong. I will give a weight, taste and smoke update/review once they dry up and got the trim. 10/10 recommended strain!

🌱 Runtz - Week 2 Update 🌱 The second week of growth is well underway, and so far, the Runtz seedlings are showing great potential, despite a small hiccup earlier in the week. 🌿 This week started with a bit of a scare when I noticed something unusual with my Root Juice fertilizer—it had gone bad, with white spots floating inside, resembling mold. I had already applied it a few times during the first week, which led to some concerns about the soil's health. I took quick action by removing the top layer of the soil and replacing it with fresh soil mixed with mycorrhiza. To combat any lingering issues, I watered the plants with a solution of Clean Soil and Cannazym to cleanse the medium and support root health. Thankfully, the Runtz plants didn’t seem to be affected negatively—they’ve maintained steady growth and appear happy and healthy! It’s a relief to see their resilience. Looking forward to wrapping up Week 2 with bigger, stronger plants and setting the stage for explosive growth in the coming weeks! Grow Conditions (Week 2): 🌞 Light schedule: 18/6 🌱 PPFD: 600 µmol/m²/s (by week’s end) 💧 VPD: ~1.0 kPa 🌟 Thanks for following along. Let’s keep the momentum going! 💪

Day 37 Week 5 update: Not looking awesome. Appears I have a root aphids or hopefully just soil mites “arthropods” and maybe thrips.. going to be fighting soil and plant pest.. :/ Update: went to store and grabbed Neem Max by Bonide, Alaskan Fish fertilizer Got some yellowing so I added 1tbsp alfalfa meal top dressed for nitrogen boost. Currently brewing a veg tea/ foliar spray. About 2.5 gallons dechlorinated water 1 tbsp alfalfa meal 1 tbsp kelp meal 1 tbsp super fly insect frass 1 tbsp crab meal. Half tsp molasses Half tsp fish emulsion Will feed/spay tea on day 39 (48 hr brew) For veg tea. Will spray plants foliage with NeemMax today (D37) to start fighting thrips or any pest. Day 38 decided to feed with a bonide mixture. About 3-4 tbsp per 2 gallon split between the veg plants sprayed into soil and roots. Aswell as a light spray for each plant in the flower tent although those plants seeem to be doing better I have yet to inspect. Wanting to keep areas as separate as possible while dealing with veg tent first. Day 39 plants drank up the bonide mixture surprisingly overnight and feed the Veg tea about 40 hour brew. Looks prime time to use as well lots of bubbles indicating microbe activity. Also sprayed folliage with the tea and lights off for 15-20 to let leafs dry off first. Also .. slight issue I’ve been measuring my umol incorrectly.. my measurement reads in lux and Foot Candles.. Basically I was giving my plants about 50-80 Umol instead of 400-600 like I thought. Same for flower. That being said very impressed with what I have achieved with very minimal light. Hopefully my plants won’t get stunted from the correct light.

So, with my crooked hands, I broke a branch on it, and I only noticed it a few days later :( I hope it recovers soon, the truth is that the girl grows really tall despite the fact that she gets more light than she needs :) but the spaces between the branches speak for themselves. We'll see how it goes, good luck to you, don't be crooked like me :):)

Trouble in Paradise! Both experiencing all kinds of trouble. BUT theyre growing and swelling! I put the blame solely on me, i overwatered in the early weeks and really havent had much time to take care of them in time. Also started flowering nutes way too late. Im happy with both of their forms though! small and bushy, thats how i like them. Sad that the deficiencies had to happen, but oh well, theyre gonna pull through i hope! i downed water to 2L from 2.5L just because it takes really low for them to dry out in between and i wanna get fresh batches of nutes in more often. 2L is also enough to get a tiny bit of runoff so no dry spots or anything. Will see how they like it! due to deficiencies, i skipped giving them 2ml/L of bloom and went straight to 3, also added a good dose of calmag. Didnt defoliate besides really effed-up leaves. See you next week!

Dane, We all should help one another. Human beings are like that. We should live by each other’s happiness - not by each other’s misery. We don’t want to hate and despise one another. In this world there is room for everyone. And the good earth is rich and can provide for everyone. The way of life can be free and beautiful, but we have lost the way. Grow High and Give the world A smile. Have A Great Day.

Reservoir gets drained in 2 days , so topping up irregularly every 2-6 days , most I dripped is 10l & lasted 4 days . Just did 5l drip with 800ml of Super8 tea, prior to that all drips had just rain water & 1.25ml of 44-0-0
