It was interesting, my first growing from beans. I knew this is a strain that stretches, but I never expected 150cm of girls. Incredibly resistant, during the whole vegetative phase I did High Stress training mistreating them but without scratching them I did schwazze defoliation to counteract the heat and too much humidity but the girls continued bulking, really strong! First experience with co2 from the next diary everything will be documented. Goal set at 500g ... let's see at the end of the treatment ... Keep it growing gromies 🍀🍀🍀

🌱💚 Week 4 – Pineapple Slush XL Auto 🍍❄️ | DWC Hydro Adventure! Another fantastic week with this beauty from Sweet Seeds! 😁✌️ This week we introduced some gentle LST, tying down the branches to encourage a wider, more even canopy. Also did some selective defoliation to open things up and improve light penetration and airflow. And WOW, she’s responding beautifully! 🌿🔥 Growth has been amazing, the pH has been stable, and she’s drinking and feeding exactly as she should! Couldn’t be happier with how she’s developing so far. 🙏 This is only my 4th hydro grow, so I’m definitely still learning the ropes, but this Pineapple Slush XL Auto has been an absolute dream! Hopefully she’ll continue thriving as we approach the flowering stage, which I believe is just around the corner! 🌸🍍 💧 Week 4 – DWC Environment & Readings: * 🌱 Growth stage: Vegetation – Week 4 * 📏 Plant height: 34 cm * ☀️ Light schedule: 18/6 * 💡 Light distance: 40 cm * 🌡️ Day temperature: 25°C * 🌙 Night temperature: 21°C * 💦 Relative humidity: 65% * pH: 6.2 (stable!) * ⚡ EC: 0.8 mS/cm * 🌊 Reservoir temperature: 23°C * 🌬️ CO₂: 600 ppm * 👃 Aroma: No smell yet! 🫧 Oxygen Upgrade – More Bubbles for the Rootsies! I also decided to upgrade the aeration setup this week! Picked up some new air stones and a Hygger air pump delivering approximately 550 L/h, which is now running alongside my existing Spider Farmer air pump. The original setup was intended to supply four DWC pots, but I’m now running all those air stones in just TWO reservoirs! 😂💨 No idea yet how much difference the additional aeration will actually make, but the goal is to keep those roots surrounded by plenty of oxygen-rich water and hopefully encourage an even healthier root system! 🫧🌱 The roots are developing nicely, the plant is looking fantastic, and everything seems to be moving in the right direction! Still a beginner wirth hydro still experimenting, and learning something new every single week. That’s what makes growing in hydro so exciting! Next stop: FLOWERING! 🌸🚀 Fingers crossed this gorgeous Pineapple Slush XL Auto keeps up the momentum and rewards us with some beautiful frosty flowers! 🍍❄️ Happy growing people!!!

OVERALL: ~ Very happy with the grow, I really dialled everything in well this run. ~ She grew super fast, I put it down to the constant oxygenation of the rootzone along with consistent and constantly optimized light DLI and leaf to air temp variance. The extra Co2 helped push the plant to its limit in terms of heat, allowing it to push its hardest. ~ The lack of HST and Defoliation I feel let it finish faster due to lack of stress and stunting. The faster finishing time along with the big yield and efficient MarsHydro light, it hugely reduced my electricity costs per gram and freed up space much sooner for the next plant. ~ Turned into a very dense bush of buds, there is even smokable dense buds at the base of the plant due to the under canopy lighting (Not as dense as top canopy buds but still decent) ~ Ran a thin line between stressing the plant and letting it flourish. The buds came out big and very dense, also it's hard to see on camera but they're very frosty too (Prob from UVB) YIELD: ~ 145g (dry) in just 9 weeks from seed. ~ 753g (Wet) ~ 0.91g/watt GENETICS: ~ MSNL - Gorilla Glue Auto ~ my favorite strain, as you can tell by my username! STRAIN REVIEW: ~ Heavy hitter, like an indica but has some of that "feel it in your face" sensation of a strong sativa. Not as heavy or as strong as other GG#4's I have smoked, which would make me question the genetics used to produce the auto version. I will wait till after a cure and judge it again. TRAINING: ~ No defoliation or HST (Bar last week for pics) ~ A little LST and leaf tucking but largely just left the plant alone to do its thing. I felt chopping healthy parts off the plant would slow the plant down and leave it with less chlorophyll to photosynthesize the light. ~ I did prune by lightly plucking dead leaves away, when the plant was ready to let them go easily. DRYING ~ 20/21'C 50% RH with air circulation. ~ Homemade Drybox made using: 2 x Bankers Boxes ~ 2 x USB Desk Fans ~ 1 x Carbon Filter ~ 6 x Clothes Hangers UPDATE: Day 5 after Harvest: ~ Fast dried some small batches, as we couldn't wait to sample. ~ Chopped off branches as some are down to 12% moisture whilst bigger buds are up at 18%. Moving to paper bag for couple of days to even moisture out then transferring to jars CURING: ~Curing in jars 3/4 full. ~ Dark closet/18'C/50% RH ~ Jars burped once Hygro passes 65% and sealed when it drops to 58%. ~ Stabilised it at 62% and after 2 weeks I'll drop it some more and stabilise it at 58% to bring out more of the flavour. ~Sitting in jars with Boveda 62% at this stage. ~ Already tastes and feels great. WATER: ~ Condensed (Starting at 40ppm) ~ Disinfected prior to adding nutrients etc. (Using COOSPIDER UVC - 253nm & 187nm bulb) CLIMATE: ~ Ambient Air Temp = 29'C ~ 28'C LST ~ Leaf to air temp variance of between 1'C ~ Night Temp = 22/23'C ~ Day/Night temp differential 6-7'C ~ Under Canopy Temp: 26'C (Day) ~ 21'C (Night) ~ Relative Humidity = 50-60%RH (Avg. 55%RH) ~ VPD = 1.45kPa (Avg.) ~ Co2 ranges from 900ppm to 1500ppm (Avg. 1200ppm) AIR PRESSURE: ~ Ambient Air Pressure (outside tent) = Mean Avg. 1010 mbars (101 Kilopascals) ~ Actual Air Pressure (inside tent) = Mean Avg. 1005 mbars (100.5 Kilopascals) ~ Air Pressure Differential = up to 0.5 kPa range between inside & outside LIGHT: ~ UVB (High intensity @ 45cm) ~ 2 hours daily mid light cycle. ~ Warm White 3000K/White 5000k/Far Red (660nm) ~ At plant canopy = PPFD 900-1000umols/s/m2 ~ Lux 45,000-55,000 ~ Daily Light Integral 55-65 ~ Under canopy lighting ~ Blue (460nm)/ Red (630nm) NUTRIENTS: ~ Mostly Advanced Nutrients (For base nutrients and most additives, as only company I could find scientific data on) ~ Canna (For Calmag Agent and Cannazym) ~ Plant Success (Great White Mycorrhizae) ADDITIONAL GROW TECHNIQUES: INFECTION PREVENTION & CONTROL: Infection control practices i.e ~ PPE, Alcohol Hand wash ~ Gray room outside tent, ~ Carbon filter ~ HEPA filter ~ Plasma Ionizer ~ Inline UV-C germicidal bulb ~ Also using an additional higher powered COOSPIDER (UVC) 253nm & 187nm bulb, to disinfect the gray room outside of the tent once a week for 30 mins. ~ Ozone (o3) gas that is produced using the COOSPIDER, is then directed into the tent to further control any unwanted pathogens. ~ Ed Rosenthal (Zero Tolerance organic pesticide), sprayed once a week as preventative measure. On hand for heavier use (Once every 3 days before lights out for 15 days) in the case of an outbreak (No outbreaks yet, due to aforementioned preventative measures)

Another hell week temperatures were at 112 degrees in the day and 90 at night so two of my three plants got zoo bad there’s no coming back very sad day hurt all my feelings

Will update harvest with dry weight next week.

Only a few times here just to water them so nothing Spezial

Strong plant no nutrients needed drying out

Buenas

the other two strains didn't resist the cold during the week, the two CBD strains that got lost in the cold. i will try another strains next week.

Et voilà la fin de se grow il me reste la magnifique orange scherbet de fast bud et les 2 dernière dos i dos de barney . Demain je vais couper et sécher tous sa et après sa j aurai le temp de remplir les rapport de = recolte, fumer ,et surtout le poids totale de toutes ces weed voilà voilà c'est tous pour aujourd'hui..encore merci d avoir suivi mes journaux et qui sais peut être un jour je repasserai sur growdiaries..

The ICE is almost done; the NL doesn’t even seem close. Interesting since ICE sprouted a day later than the NL.

Both beans in the water for 48h, both germinated and put into the soil

What up Fam. These girls are growing amazing. Now that I can control the temps a little better they've taken off with growth. Starting the flower period which we all no know what that means. The countdown is on. Over all Happy Growing.

Week 4 of veg and we are nearing our transplant into flower. These girls are super thirsty so we are watering every day. We are also continuing our LST throughout this entire veg process. This allows the plants to develop laterally instead of vertically, helping fill your tent faster and with more top cola sites.

Duplican más del doble del tamaño en la segunda semana de floración

Giorno 74 (14 fioritura) Le piante stanno abbastanza bene. Per il prossimo giro autunno/inverno dovrò stare attento con le temperature perché tra vegetativa e ora inzio fioritura hanno sofferto un po' di basse temperature (nulla di preoccupante ma preferisco avere 23/24° piuttosto che 17/18°). Come detto la settimina scorsa ho dovuto flushare una Pink Gasoline perché tutte le foglie avevano macchie chiare distribuite in modo non uniforme.Ora, dopo dieci litri di acqua con gli ultimi due con una leggera dose di fertilizzanti finalmente i nuovi getti sembrano stare meglio. Tutte le altre piante stanno bene, sta solo a me non dare troppo cibo e monitorare il colore delle foglie per correggere eventuali eccessi/carenze. Non posso fare danni con questi incroci 😃 🙏 A settimana prossima sperando di vedere un po' di resina 😋

Доброго дня Сегодня ровно 124 дня жизни моей девочки и ровно 9 недель как перевел ее на цвет. Последнюю неделю я ей давал Ripen. Поливал каждый день. Влажность немного поднялась за эту неделю, ночью она подала ниже 30%, но днем поднимал порой и до 46%, Все в пределах нормы. Центральные шишки на мой взгляд готовы так 80%-90%, а в от нижние еще не созрели, оцениваю готовность их на 65%-75%. Думаю еще неделю как по плану Не знаю насколько хорошо видно на фотках, но хотелось бы узнать ваше мнение друзья, по поводу зрелости шишек

This plant has been full of surprises this week lol. First I found spider mites! Then I found a little powdery mildew 🤬🤬 Well.... now that the bad news is out of the way how about some good news. She is starting to really fatten up. The smell of this girl is fantastic😎 It really smells better by the day!! 🤪 She has been yellowing out a bit quickly as of late so I may need to add a bit more feather meal and kelp meal to her top dressing routine. I may also add some cal-mag to a watering here and there as needed. I have some predatory mites and ladybugs coming soon so the spider mites time is running out🤨. As for the powdery mildew, I will have to spray her every 3-4 days with greencure to keep it from invading my precious flowers. Greencure is an outdoor farmers best bud!! (Pun intended). I’ve been in this battle before. It comes with the territory when growing in a greenhouse outdoors. Sit back and enjoy y’all. I’ll get this lady to the finish line. 😎🍿
