Week 6 Flower Report: Maturation in Full Swing! 🌟 Welcome to the week where the magic of maturation takes center stage! 🌟 The garden has reached a pivotal moment as the trichomes are bursting with potential. Each one a glittering universe, they are the undeniable stars of this show, taking over every surface with their frosty brilliance. ✨ Watching them evolve is like witnessing art being created in real time – it’s a reminder of the beauty and patience this craft demands. Trichomes: The Frosty Frontier This week, the focus is all about those frosty beauties! • Trichomes are the key indicators of ripeness and cannabinoid production. Watching their progression from clear to cloudy to amber provides the ultimate insight into maturity. • Currently, we’re seeing a fantastic mix of cloudy trichomes with some clear still hanging around – a perfect sign that they’re gearing up for their final push. • Fun fact: Trichomes serve as the plant’s natural defense mechanism, protecting it from UV rays and pests while being our treasure trove for cannabinoids and terpenes. Spectrum Tuning: The Science of Light Light plays a major role in shaping the maturation process, and this week, we’ve dialed in the spectrum for optimal results. Here’s the breakdown: • Whites: Running at 77% to maintain robust overall growth and trichome density. • Deep Reds, Far Reds, and UV: Maxed out at 100% to mimic the end-of-season spectrum, signaling the plants to finish strong. • Deep Reds: Enhance photosynthesis efficiency through the Emerson effect. • Far Reds: Promote stretch and flowering hormone production. • UV: Stimulates trichome production for an extra boost of frost! We’ve also added a timing twist: • Reds & UV start 15 minutes before whites to simulate sunrise. • Reds & UV finish 15 minutes after whites to mimic sunset, creating a more natural light transition. These subtle timing tricks help reduce stress while optimizing light absorption, ensuring every photon counts! 🌞 Environmental Conditions: Precision is Key Here are the dialed-in parameters for the week: • Temps: 26.3°C • RH: 70.1% • CO2: 800 ppm • VPD: 1.03 kPa With these numbers, the ladies are thriving in their sweet spot, absorbing nutrients efficiently while maximizing trichome development. Lighting Power: • Lower layer at 800 PPFD and the upper layer shining bright at 1500 PPFD. The canopy coverage is perfect for even development throughout the garden. Nutrition: Balanced and Boosted We’ve stuck with the tried-and-true nutrient mix this week but with some strategic adjustments: • Removed Breaking Powder to focus on trichome maturity. • Introduced K-Boost at 0.5 ml/L, giving the plants the potassium edge they need to pack on weight and enhance terpene production. • Feeding solution details: • pH: 6.2 • TDS: 755 ppm • Temp: 20.6°C In the Autopots, the medium stays perfectly hydrated at 100% with: • TDS: 580 ppm • Temp: 22.2°C Shoutouts and Gratitude A huge shoutout to the amazing genetics and these incredible ladies, and a big thanks to Trol Master, Aptus Holland and Pro Mix for the stellar products that are elevating this grow to new heights! 🌱💪 To all growers out there, remember: Patience is the secret ingredient. Watch, learn, and trust the process – the results will always amaze you. Here’s to another week of growth and gratitude.

A-Day 60, B&C Day 56 A is fattening up! She never did stretch, but then again I had her tied and splayed pretty far out. She has been thirsty, I have been feeding a dose close to 1000 ppm every other feed which has been every other day for her. During the lower feeds, ppm has been around 400. Her tricomes are mostly clear, with some cloudy starting to show. She still has a couple of weeks to go. B- is going to be a producer! She has so many tips and they are all fattening and developing at about the same rate, she is going to be a beast! Did a defoliation on her, she is appreciating the extra light penetration 😎💨 C- Has stretched up and out! If she stacks as tight as the other two, she will probably be the one with the most weight. Her branches are the tallest and reaching up at least 4-6 inches past both her sisters. I tied her down lightly to allow light to get through, we’ll see how she goes.

Here we are in what it will be the final week... I am now at day 61 and I'm considering to cut at the end of this current week... in 2 days basically... I recently bought a scope that allows me to check the trichomes and I can see all milky ones, I also posted some videos of it, please guys let me know your thoughts... Beside this buds are hard like rocks and smell still pretty intense and I cannot wait to taste this short but bulky phenotype. I'll keep you guys posted if I harvest or not this week hoping to read some of your comments. So Stay tuned, stay high! - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Little update at Day 63. I decided to give her few more days, so next week will be chopping her, this mostly cause I watered her last time on Day 61 and now I am basically just waiting for the soil to be dry. I count to put her in the dark for 48 hours at Day 65 and finally chop her at day 67, I cannot wait to update you for the harvesting part. I expect to reach 50/60 grams dry and I really hope to achieve that. Keep you guys posted! Stay tuned, stay high!

Buds are starting to fatten up, I guess harvest is gonna be in 2 weeks, maybe longer. Problem is that I have to harvest them all at once because I have to dry them in the growbox. ▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄ ▌My setup: ▌Growbox: Secret Jardin Hydro Shoot 80 ▌Lights: Selfmade 184W LED Panel w/ Samsung Q-Series Strips ▌Ventilation: Ventilution Mixed In-Line 145/187m³/h ▌Fan: Taifun FT-18 oscillating fan ▌Heating fan: Trotec TFC 1 E ▌Substrate: 50% BioBizz All-Mix & 50% Perlite (& BioTabs Starterbox) ▌Nutrients: BioTabs Starterbox & tapwater ▌Irrigation: AutoPot 4Pot System ▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄

Blue Dream'Matic growing strong. Defoliated her this week and she bushed right back out again in a couple of days. Lightly fed some Espoma Organic Grow this week. She seems to be in a friendly competition with the Auto Lemon, they have been battling back and forth to see who's taller. Fight all you want girls, I'll be the winner in the end. 👍

Yes sir!!! We are here now in bloom! The last few weeks I think she's been getting ready but now we are seeing signs of full bloom! Staked wide and ready for growth. I'm loving how these ladies are growing! I'm sorry for being behind on my grow diarys. Had to do some work on the other garden I help out with! But all is well! I just gave these baby's some kelp it real from growganica. To help boost these roots ✨️ then I'll be giving her some fermented watermelon for feed as well next week. Roughly every other watering. I do just a little bit less than the recommendation! Irrated as always baby! Things are looking well I'm excited for the weels to come! Much love & happy growing

Bonjour à tous. Le 18 août début de la 5ème semaine et jour 29 pour mes 10 White Widow. Durant la semaine dernière, elles ont grandi leurs feuilles mais niveau hauteur c'est des bonsaïs (10 centimètres en moyenne ), j'halucine lol, j'espère qu'elles vont grandir en hauteur pendant cette semaine. Tout va pour le mieux. Peace and Grow for All..😇😇😇

Welcome back guys, This time bigger and different! For this time I'm going back to the basics and i will be using 240 Amnesia Haze clones! I start with the old 3 liter pots and they will be repotted into 7 liters, there was no space to have them in 11 liters in the upcomming weeks. The grow Medium is special lightmix soil from the growshop( it has like ph 5.8-6 with ec 1-1,2 in it). Beneeth the soil i putted Expanded Clay so the water will go out more easily. I have got 12 x 600 watt HID lamps in there, but for now I am just using a few. I'm very busy at the moment so my growroom isn't finished yet. This is only half of it. I had to start because those clones, which i have orderd, where deliverd lol. So there was no time left. The lamps are high at the moment because the clones need time to root. If you have your lamps to low when just planted your clones, your clones will dry out and die. They need to settle first for a few days. Day 7: All went well. I do have a ''bad'' corner. Thoose plants are strugling to develope. Nothing mayor, it is normal with this many plants that some clones doesn't root and grow properly. Next week i will decide which one I keep and which I throw away because I don't like to make two schedules, feeding buckets and more, just for a few weaker plants lol. The lamps are at 60-70cm from the canatopy. Some preff it higher and only at that range when flowering. But I want to have it like this because I want strong stems, more bushy plants instead of weak stems and long ugly anoying plants that produce fluffy buds. These sativas love to stretch and grow big, I personally don't like that, so I try to force strong stem and bush growth. Also increasing a bit in Aptus Regulator might force it as well. I did sprayed them with Canna Cure as well, to prefend against all kinds of stuff and give them a little feeding via the leafs. Currently still to busy in real life. Hopefully I finish my full grow room in the upcomming days, spread the plants and maybe even repot them into bigger ones. The rooting and growing proces goes well. They must go a bit larger untill I force them into flowering. See you guys next week.

Alots transpired but not really lol. Chopped 3 so far for being male and as you can see this week I may (99% sure) have another male. I’ve given one light feed of Cronk grow, kelp me kelp you, and some cal mag. So looks like I’ll be taking 3 into flower which is all I wanted to know before spent too much effort and time on em. Prolly transplant the 2 smaller ones this week and just continue to wait it out. I know next time I could wait a few weeks before popping new beans if they’re regs atleast…

Update Day 14 Flowering: Wow this girl has fought her way into my affections this week. Her stacking nodes are impressive and so not like her mothers growth. I can see how they will stack and grow quiet well now and am hopeful of her yield. For 2 weeks old , she is doing great and to say how long she was held back ect.. ,doing even better. Still no signs of any issues or deficiencies so all good. Lets see gow she copes this week with the heatwave.

Day 89!!!! I came back from vacation and started harvesting right away, so the girl grew really big, but I gave her too little light, and at the end of the growth I didn't remove the leaves :( because I was busy on vacation :( but basically I'm still incredibly happy, her flowers are not very firm, they have a lot of "AIR", but a lot of shiny sticky trichomes, the girl grew really well throughout her growth, next time I will definitely use LST, this growth was with very little LST, there will be an update when the harvest dries up :) good luck to everyone:).

The plant grows. I have now added an oxygen pump to the water tank. Let's see what effect that has. You can see the progress every day. I've also bought some phosphoric acid to keep the PH down (hopefully). My water tank is very large, about 75 litres. I also have a few holes in the lid, so a lot of rainwater gets into the tank through this and also through the openings in the pots. Never had to top up the water yet lol. At the end of the fourth week I'm happy with the growth, especially as it's my first plant. -------------------------- Die Pflanze wächst. Ich habe mittlerweile einen Sauerstoffpumpe in den Wassertank gegeben. Mal sehen wie sich das auswirkt. Man sieht den Fortschritt jeden Tag. Ich habe außerdem Phosphorsäure gekauft, um den PH-Wert endllich stabil unten zu halten (hoffentlich). Mein Wassertank ist sehr groß, ca. 75 Liter. Außerdem habe ich ein paar Löcher im Deckel, so dass dadurch und auch durch die Öffnungen in den Töpfen viel Regenwasser in den Tank gelangt. Musste noch nie Wasser nachfüllen lol. Am Ende von der vierten Woche bin ich zufrieden mit dem Wachstum, vor allem da es meine erste Pflanze ist.

Overall, we are very pleased with the end result of this grow! For the harvesting process itself - once the trichomes on the buds were milky white (see zoomed in photo above), we cut down the branches and hung to dry in the tent. The light was on in the photo to display the hanging to dry method, but the lights were turned off for the duration of the drying process. On the first day the buds were hanging, all large fan leaves were trimmed. Over the course of the next week, day by day, more leaves were trimmed. After 8/9 days of drying, the buds were ready to move into the curing stage (the test for this: the skinny branches would snap when bent, and the thicker branches were near snapping when bent). On day 9, buds were cut from the branches, trimming off the final accessible leaves, without damaging the trichomes, and placed in glass jars with dehumidifier pouches to begin the curing process. For the first 7 days, the jars were opened (burped) for 10 minutes twice daily. After the first week, burping was reduced to once a day and then every few days. Strain first tested after 10 days of curing, but cured for a total of 4 for optimal results. Citrusy flavor, excellent sativa for mellow productivity and a mood boost. Now that I have my first grow under my belt, it's time to move onto the next!
