Week 7 since we switched the light to 12/12, What’s up fellow gardeners? So this week, things got a little faster because 2 gorilla ladies started to mature earlier than their other two companions, so they had to be given a little different treatment. They needed a little manicure so that the lower flowers could also ripen. Did a moderately severe defoliation on this 2 plants. The other two are just getting fatter and gaining more weight lovely at the moment. The flowers are beautifully full, the VPD is excellent and the resin is constantly flowing seriously. The ladies are still hungry and drinking 5 litres of water every 3 days. The two gals who are ahead got their first ripening cure with Final Part, the other two were fed as usual. The scent is starting to become a little more complex, with a basket of ripe fruit added to the sweetness. I really hope this will stay until the end of the grow and after a good dry and cure process we can get it back in the final smoke.💨🍭 Crisping has started on one pheno on the biggest fan leaves, but I think it’s genetic related so I don’t attach much importance to it.🍁 It really seems like the more advanced of the two should be harvested first, which I think will happen within 2 weeks at most. The other two a week or 1,5 later but it will definitely happen before Christmas time. Vpd.:1,21-1,45kpa Par: 690-1090 ppfd I'll see you soon fello gardeners. Happy farming family!👨🏻‍🌾🌱

Da ich nicht bedacht habe, dass die Lampe doch so viel Wärme abgibt, hat die kleine Dame kurzzeitig etwas viel Hitze abbekommen. Zum Glück ist es am nächsten Tag aufgefallen und ich konnte etwas gegensteuern, indem ich Die Lampen Leistung etwas runtergeschraubt und den Luftbefeuchter kontrolliert habe.

Vegetation Week 16: Heatwave Endurance & Growth Surge Update: 03.07.2025 | Day 118 Hey Growmies, Week 16 tested limits with scorching temps, but the ladies laughed at 37°C. Growth went into hyperdrive – here’s the breakdown: Heat Response - Survived 37°C peaks without stress signs (no wilting, no leaf curl). - Vertical explosion: ~20cm growth across both plants this week. New feeding mix: - 1 Biotab dissolved in 1.5L water → 50ml of this concentrate per 10L water + Bokashi juice. Result: Deep green vigor, zero deficiencies. Strain-Specific Updates Durban Poison: - Now towering with explosive branching (new shoots from every main stem). - Still vegging – no flowers yet. Easily clearing 170cm, on track for 2m+. - Low odor (neighbor-friendly for now). Bud potential looks massive. Blueberry: - Healthy at 170cm but less dense than Durban. - No pistils yet, no heat stress. Hopes high for autumn purples. - Structure balanced and robust. Pest & Health Check - Zero issues. Leaves pristine top to bottom. Next Steps - Monitor flowering triggers (daylight still 15 hours). - Continue Biotab/Bokashi mix weekly. - Prepare taller supports for Durban’s final stretch. Week 16 Takeaway Genetics + adaptiveness = unstoppable growth. Durban’s a jungle queen, Blueberry a steady grower. Some rain would be good te rehydrate the soil. Catch ya next week my friends. – Smoking_Joe_Frazier

PARDON? exactly nobody says anything 🙄 😒 21/02/202"4 Midday! 3-4days I'll transplant to 10l pots then 20l for flower 🌼 To be quite frank; the proper vegging starts now! Teresa Palmer 22/02/2025 Lights On! Deffolled "The Teresa Palmer Experiments" 2:22 maybe? Another film called "The Identity" both actresses star in it. AKA - Freaky P 🤪 reinvigorated and reimaged. Will be splashing her with some Magic MarkerxZZTOP pollen towards the end of her flower 🌼" - shame in real life shes a keeper! 😜 Why call her Teresa Palmer? Because i wanna nail her lol jokes aside 🤣 'It's her second name Palmer'? "When I'm smoking Palm trees I feel a calm breeze Every time my palm leaves ^Get it? Like the blonde b!tch!" -Em I can't remember what film but there is a film with "Teresa Palmer" or was it that girl of "Heroes" the blonde cheerleader 🤔 i can't remember for they look kinda identical. "Hayden Panettiere" thats her. Weird but wonderful DNA floating about Hollywood. They all look similar. DNA repeats in my eyes. Anyways she's called the "The Teresa Palmer Experiment" Because she had "Magic Maker White Stains on her jeans from breeding i assume. Long story short - Hollywood DNA Experiments. Let's add in some Mutant Genetics to stir the pot! I wanna' palm her and mark her lol MarkerxZZTOP 23/02/2025 Lights Off! Defolled and a little LST Lil VT to show the Roots progression! "Sprayed walls with h202 6% inside of tent and turned on the humidifier outside ofWW1 the tent with 10ml of 3% to 8L" Also did a Lite spray of hyaluronic acid mixed in the water should help with faster exorbitant The Cuttings 12%HP! Sprayed on Cuttings walls "no direct contact" i made sure I wasn't baked this time round 😉 no HP burn marks on my hands 😀 because I wear gloves now! I know it's know i am a genuine genius. Not this has all been done before. Nothing new under the sun my buddies! "I have a stupid obsession with Teresa Palmer at this moment in time" - aye behave i know what you are thinking@ jackfrost 24/02/2025 Lights On Shapron! Lights Off!

New growth! TF will need to be equivalent with more domes as she's opens up. "I said to my therapist 2yrs ago jokingly; that' I'll have all my problem's sorted when the planets align!: Don't you just hate it' when you are really in a 'TV Show' and it cuts off for a break right at the end just before the ending credits; to comeback after the break to run the credits then run another break! I love beeing pour runny honey 🍯 just to save money! Meaning: I don't really subscribe to scription because they always get you at the start with 3months free trial and you can cancel anytime. Every 3yrs Amazon's gives you 3months free trail for 'Prime' Well Amazon' ain't my problem it's the deaf PlutoTV I put on for background noise and I really get into the True Crime' shows. Jesus Christ lad! Whom ARE you arguing with! I just re-read and it says I qoate " :Don't you just hate it' when you are really in a 'TV Show'" haha When you are really in a TV Show what like Trueman 👍 no no like your life! We get to watch all this back apparently......aannnnnd I am really into your wife! 😉 haha "Dude you could of just edited that! I could of! Butter i didn't cook the cookies in the oven but in the air cooker! Talk about "taking the crunch too far" it's all this pressure 😫 and me treating my mental illnesses! Yeah illnesses! We are all f'ing ill! "Time for a 5day break!" - have a kitkat 😍 See what i did there! Time for a short reses To "the slabb" website to order boozy chocolates 🍫 "Order out of chaos always happens it's the drfine laW!" What's these "Teresa Palmer Experiments" supposed to be proving? 'Atm..Nothing absolutely 💯 nothing' but soon the answers will come and it'll all slot into place once I figure this out to how far i can push the plants. The answers in finding the most efficient feed/money for the fastest growth. Plus it's all a bit of fun in it! We're all professionals "who's to say" 😉 God's plants are Our Zzplant? the government stance to protect the youngsters rants. I danced before I could crawl. Lol

Hello. This is the end of week 1 and the beginning of week 2 of flowering. My buddy grew the Dos Si Dos 33 outdoors a few years back, and we found it had a red/purple color to it when it was finished. I can see it starting on the stem and leaf stem's. The Pink Kush has a pink/purple color to it. Things are going good in here. The next trim up is between week 2 and 3 of flowering, before the resin starts. I've turned the lights up to 60% to try to cut down the stretching. I've also switched to flowering nutrient with less nitrogen for the same reason. I'm still monitoring to see if there is any sign of the spider mites I had a couple of weeks ago. Can't see any signs of them. Hoping the predatory bugs wiped them out. I'll keep monitoring. OK. Be cool out there. Chuck.

The gap between where you are and where you want to be is measured in decisions, not dreams. Dopamine release is not the pursuit of happiness; it's the happiness of the pursuit. "Mens Dei" Cannabis buds can expand or swell in warmer conditions, but this is not necessarily a desirable effect. High temperatures can cause the buds to become airy and loose, reducing their density and potentially impacting potency and aroma. First 4 weeks flower, blazing hot expansion of buds, 4 weeks after cool off? Why?? What can be made to expand, airy and loose, can also be made to contract, dense and tight. Why? Trichomes do not discriminate, although we like to think of trichomes' primary purpose as being to get us high; they are there to provide photoprotection (sunscreen). Trichomes apply themselves based on area dimensions; the more area = the more trichomes in order to protect. Different from density: Trichomes, the resinous glands on plants, are often produced in response to stress, including high light intensity. This increased production can lead to denser trichome coverage on the plant, stress, stress, stress, stress is the signal. There is a certain beauty in watching the large water-filled buds once swollen to the brim slowly shrink during drying, as the surface areas contract, the trichomes just cluster up to form denser and denser coatings, already dense from high light intensities, UVB exposure, and IPS, and every other stressor I could tweak. Trichomes, the resinous glands on cannabis plants, are often produced in response to various forms of stress. These stresses can be environmental, like excess light(HIL) or UV-B radiation, temperature fluctuations, or drought, or mechanical, such as wind, pruning, or even the weight of the plant's own buds. The plant reacts to these stressors by increasing trichome production as a defensive mechanism to protect itself and its valuable compounds like THC and CBD. In essence, cannabis plants perceive stress as a threat and respond by producing more trichomes as a way to protect themselves and their valuable compounds. Several studies have shown this. Not so much a "master" grower as a master of stress. Psssst. Tip. Trichomes fill with "antioxidants," including THC. Ant"ox"idants, The production of antioxidants in plants is intricately linked to their oxidative apparatus. The plant has limited oxidative capacity/apparatus. During daytime photosynthesis, a large percentage of that oxidative capacity is tied up in protecting the plant. During the night, plants alter their metabolic pathways. This leads to a far more focused production of specific antioxidants, like THC. Plants also produce antioxidants during the day. Excess light, for example, can trigger the production of excess antioxidants as part of their defense mechanisms against reactive oxygen species (ROS). The differential ROS production by blue and IR light can have significant biological consequences. For example, high levels of ROS induced by blue light can lead to cell damage and death, while lower levels of ROS produced by IR light may be involved in beneficial cellular signaling pathways. Long nights under the IR (very low ROS), the boost in cellular respiration, and the boost in energy production. In a perfect world, I'd give the plant a shock treatment of 60DLI in 4 hours and give her the other 20 hours to perform cellular respiration under IR. The stress of those 4 hours would be rigorous and full of stress abound, 1800-2000ppm CO2 is easy for a couple of hours during daylight, it's maintaining it that's hard, but 4 hours is very doable with nothing but a little extra "carbon sugar" in your medium every other night during the first 4 weeks of flower. In my opinion, you only need to jack CO2 for those first 4 weeks of flower to see maximal output, after that it's all about trichome preservation, everything else comes second. Without the temps to assist with metabolism, CO2 is reduced to normal levels along with temps 4-5th week of flower. Buds are primarily composed of water. Developing flower buds, like other plant tissues, require a significant amount of water for growth and turgor pressure, which helps maintain their structure and firmness. Turgor pressure in plant cells is primarily generated by osmosis, but transpiration plays a crucial role in maintaining it. The optimal internal leaf surface temperature for photosynthesis at 1800-2000ppm CO2 is likely in the upper range of 97°F, meaning ambient would need to sit at 102°F-ish or thereabout for full metabolic utilization. That's putting your transpirational pulling force x5 x6 maybe x7 of what it would be if she were cruising at 68F. "My buds won't fatten, what can I do!!" Crank that bitch. If your purpose was to blow up a balloon as fast as you can, as much as you can, would you use 2x force or x5 Force to do so? Bad analogy, but you get the idea. Kiss. Optimize photosynthesis & VPD by day, cellular respiration by night. TECHNICALLY: "While transpiration and cellular respiration are both ongoing plant processes, they are not neatly separated into day and night. Both processes occur both day and night, though at different rates and with different emphasis. Transpiration, the release of water vapor from plant surfaces, is primarily driven by sunlight and photosynthesis during the day, but it also continues at a lower rate at night. Cellular respiration, which provides energy for the plant, occurs continuously, both day and night. " BUT Only 10% ATP can be processed through photosynthesis and carbon capture. 90% of ATP is processed when the plant's oxidative capacity becomes available (NIGHTTIME). Cellular respiration relies on the process of oxidation to generate energy. Specifically, the final stage of cellular respiration, called oxidative phosphorylation, utilizes oxygen as the final electron acceptor to produce a substantial amount of ATP, the cell's primary energy currency. Several environmental factors can hinder cellular respiration in plants. These include low oxygen levels, temperature extremes (both too high and too low), humidity, water stress, and the presence of toxins. These factors can impair the function of enzymes involved in respiration, disrupt the availability of substrates, or directly damage plant tissues, thus reducing the rate of cellular respiration. Factors such as oxygen concentration, glucose availability and temperature will all impact the amount of aerobic respiration an organism will perform. See you next grow, *twiddles thumbs* Signum Magnum. Signum magnum Appáruit in caelo Múlier amícta sole Et luna sub pédibus ejus Et in cápite ejus Coróna stellárum duódecim Cantáte dómino cánticum novum Quia mirabília fecit Gloria pátri, et filio, et spirítui sáncto Sicut érat in princípio, et nunc, et semper Et in saécula saeculórum, amen Signum magnum Appáruit in caelo Múlier amícta sole Et luna sub pédibus ejus Et in cápite ejus Coróna stellárum duódecim Cantáte dómino cánticum novum Quia mirabília fecit Gloria pátri, et filio, et spirítui sáncto Sicut érat in princípio, et nunc, et semper Et in saécula saeculórum, amen Signum magnum Appáruit in caelo Múlier amícta sole Et luna sub pédibus ejus Et in cápite ejus Coróna stellárum duódecim Cantáte dómino cánticum novum Quia mirabília fecit Gloria pátri, et filio, et spirítui sáncto Sicut érat in princípio, et nunc, et semper Et in saécula saeculórum, amen Signum magnum Appáruit in caelo Múlier amícta sole Et luna sub pédibus ejus Et in cápite ejus Coróna stellárum duódecim
