This week I noticed the plants really starting to take off. I’m adding more C02 tonight to speed things up, I plan to get 2 more harvests before the winter! Did a Rez change on the DWC BCP, I’ll snip clones off the other two strains during the next defoliant sessions. I’d like to get a 5x5 just for a few DWC or RDWC. How can I join come contests?

Ok guys so she was bushy again and so we did defoliation again. You can see the difference and then after that started flowering even more Plus the fact we are increasing the amount of molasses added to the soil plus the floranova bloom nutes. They are very thirsty girls, taking around 1.5-2lts per 48 hrs So almost like a 1 liter per 24 hrs Very good SoG to make them feel even more comfortable Going to change schedule from 24/0 to 19/5 and see if they evolve! Thinking about adding some humus to the soil as well, other than that they have been under good conditions Temp is steady at day time around 24C top and night time is 18-19C minimum RH around 45-60% Mostly 45% control environment with AC Cant wait to see big colas coming soon! Have fun enjoy the videos!

Not much to say this week so I did a few videos... B.A.C. schedule goes on : flowering week 4. Changed clones' tutors for taller ones and used them with mother plant to reshap it to fit perfectly with clones. They are still from 60 to 70 cm, mother is 65 cm : no height change since last week and I can clearly see flowers growing under pistils, stretch is officialy done.😀 03/28 : I lollipopped mother plant (maybe too gently). Clones grow faster with bigger buds and much more trichromes on sugar leaves, but mother plant keep on growing too, despite all mutilations she suffered. She may finish a few weeks after her clones... whatever, it's for fun!

Day 57 - Starting week 9 off with a gallon and a half of water and nutes today. She’s doing really well and getting big. Finally really starting to bud up a bit and not just pistils here and there. Not really doing any defoliating until she’s buds up a bit more but she’s getting there. She’s still stretching like crazy and when she seems to slow down, she gets watered and starts putting on the inches again. Day 58 - Didn’t really do anything with her today. Just took her out of the tent to give her a look to see how she’s doing. It looks like she’s definitely starting to bud up and should be an amazing harvest, when the time comes. Day 59 - Looking good and starting to stack up nicely. Still has got a long was to go but all is looking well. I did chop off a couple of lower branches that are completely covered and I’d rather her focus her energy on the ones that are getting the light. She’s gonna need some water again by Saturday. Day 61 - Gave the girl about a gallon and a half of water and nutes today and removed a couple fan leaves as well. She’s coming along nicely and buds seems to be forming nicely as well. Not really putting out much of a smell yet but hopefully she’ll starting frosting up soon so I get get a good smell from her. Day 62 - Not a whole lot new going on today. Removed a few dead fan leaves at the bottom and checked her out under a scope and looks like the trichs are starting to form. Day 63 - It’s the end of week 9 today and she’s drinking like crazy. Going to give her some more water and nutes tomorrow. She’s really budding up nicely and looking pretty damn good. The stretching has slowed down a little so hopefully she’ll start packing on some weight and getting frosty.

This was a fun little project with a few ups and downs. Overall it was a success. I managed to get 86 Seeds off of the two plants, this is a smaller number but given that I started the pollination about 2-3 weeks late I am impressed. Top this all off with the fact I was using 10ppm silver solution for the majority of the reversing process and only had 30ppm for about a single week near the end. Moving forward if I plan on reversing anymore plants I will be investing in some STS vs Silver solution. It's easier to use and has stronger results. I also managed to get 25g of bug from the plants as well that I will infuse into some butter. Not to worry these are not the branches that where sprayed with silver and they have been cut off and disposed of in the composter. When I decide to grow these out I'll try and create a new diary and test if the CBD/THC ratios remain intact, if the plants are viable. I have not tested the germination rate on these seeds and for all I know they are duds or will not resemble their back-crossed parents. This is my first seed making project and so much is new and unknown to me. Have had lots of help along the way from some good GD friends. Tried to post lots of photos and products I used. The photos labelled [PREVIOUS HARVEST] where when I first grew this wonderful strain out. It has the same peppery kush smell and crazy deep purples as it first did. I did shock these plants with a heavy feeding that stunted them greatly, I also transplanted them when I should have started them off in their forever pot. This was all explained in the weekly entries when it happened and why. overall the autos are not heavy yielding but more average for an auto and that's ok with me. Its the smells, taste colours and CBD contest that draw me to it. Somethings to note from the diary, most of the liquid nutrients are diving by how much water I gave them, typically 4L. Solid nutrients are divided per litre of medium in the pots or they are the total amounts I added. Just ask if you have Questions.

01/11 True week one of flower. These girls don’t like being fed full strength nutes. They definitely stretch a lil more directly under the HPS. The other girls getting more MH light def don't have the same stretch. I will be switching out the MH for a HPS and adding a LED in the next couple days. 01/12 Changed the MH with the HPS. both lights kicking at 1150w with the UVB’s. With the plants over 5’ tall its not enough light. There is soo much photosynthetic surface area + i have not defoliated one leaf the entire grow. I will remove the all of the growth about 2’ up on each plant this weekend.

Super super frosty and sticky nugs, very dense and compact, big calyx, stinks, beautiful strain to grow the 2 plants of wedding cake Auto I have got the same aroma, this girl is being fed using nothing but a good soil prepared organically with complete organics by guanokalong and also seaweed powder, and also I added florians livings organics which is such an awesome organic super food for the plants that makes the strains performer better when when it comes the time to smoke you don't feel all that chemical stuff. Thank you so much everybody hope you enjoy! 💚🌱🎂✌️

An Tag 10 (nach Keimung) gegossen (1,3L, meist drain von ca. 200 bis 300 ml) und Gewicht notiert. Gesättigter 5l stoffpot wiegt bei mir ca. 2.7-2,8kg. Das Schwierigste ist,dass alles gut läuft und sie mich nicht brauchen. Schaue trotzdem täglich einfach so für 10 min meine Mädels an 😍. Habe 2 weitere e27 2700k 13w 1521 lm hinzugefügt. Weniger wegen des Lichtes,sondern um die Temperatur noch etwas höher zu bekommen. Klappt bisher gut ,sodass auf stofftopf Ebene jetzt auch ca. 25 grad herrechen. Immernoch bei 300-400 ppfd laut photone. Edit Day 15: Weitere 2x 20W 4000K 2500 lm hinzugefügt. Insgesamt jetzt 182 W, ca. 28-29 °C max temps. Heute gegossen - waren bei 60% des gesättigten Gewichts.

🌱 Weekly Report: Week 16 Flower – Gorilla Melon Highlights 🌱 Room Dynamics and Challenges This week marked a pivotal phase as we approached harvest. The decision to harvest Gorilla Melon in two stages allowed us to navigate a potential mold issue effectively. The mold was confined to select areas of dense colas, which were promptly removed to protect the rest of the plant. This experience reinforces the importance of keen observation, especially in the final weeks. Environmental Parameters • Temperature: 26°C • RH: 53.2% • VPD: 1.57 kPa • CO₂ Levels: 1067 ppm • PPFD: 690 µmol/m²/s • Solution Stats: pH 6.67 | TDS 695 ppm | Temp 18.3°C The ThinkGrow LEDs and TrolMaster systems shone during this critical period, maintaining precise control over the environment. The addition of deep red and UV light at 100%, with whites at 50%, seemed to amplify trichome production, resulting in a frosty finish across the garden. Highlights of the Week • Fading Colors: The garden displayed a stunning spectrum of fading hues, signaling the end of the cycle. Gorilla Melon’s red highlights and frost stood out beautifully. • Defoliation Success: The earlier defoliation efforts paid off, minimizing mold spread and allowing light to penetrate deep into the canopy. • Trichome Inspection: The frost level across Gorilla Melon was nothing short of mesmerizing, a testament to her genetics and the controlled environment. Gratitude and Community A heartfelt thank you to the community for your support and engagement. The sponsors—ThinkGrow LED, TrolMaster, Aptus Holland, and ProMix Soil—made this run possible. It’s been a pleasure to share this journey with you all. What’s Next? With Gorilla Melon harvested, the spotlight now shifts to the other girls in the garden. Stay tuned for their individual harvest reports, smoke reviews, and more as we wrap up this epic series!

Gold Sativa has been growing good. Been focused on root pruning the last week. Something I should of been doing from the beginning. I increased her nutrition slightly. Likely 2 weeks till I change light schedule. Depending on how fast the roots recover. I am in no hurry really. I am growing her in a New Level Hydro bucket, under the Spider Farmer SE5000 light at 60 percent currently. Thank you New Level Hydro, Quebec Seeds, and Spider Farmer. 🌱🤜🤛🌱💪 Thank you grow diaries community for the 👇likes👇, follows, comments, and subscriptions on my YouTube channel👇. ❄️🌱🍻 Happy Growing 🌱🌱🌱 https://youtube.com/channel/UCAhN7yRzWLpcaRHhMIQ7X4g SE5000 https://amzn.to/3qFpAML Spider Farmer Official Website Links: US&Worldwide: https://www.spider-farmer.com UK: https://spiderfarmer.co.uk CA: https://spiderfarmer.ca EU: https://spiderfarmer.eu AU: https://spiderfarmer.com.au Coupon Code: saveurcash Www.newlevelhydro.com Www.hygrozyme.com

This was the squatest clone and grows thick heavy glowing marshmallow colas. Smells so sweet too soon to tell final taste.

Welcome back to yet another update on my summer grow 😎🤙🏻 Things are still going smooth, a bit defoliation and nematodes was used and hopefully they will do their job in a few days😁 Started to add bloom to the mix, so let’s see how things turn out. As you can see the red spectrum is really working well, and soon I´ll add some small amounts of IR/UV daily. Looking forward to see the result 😊 _____________________________________________________________________________________________ SpectrumX LED🔥 @medicgrow 880 Watt⚡️ 2x UV/IR LED panels 💥 2.7 μmol/J🔥 Full Spectrum V1,F1,VS,FS🌈 Display with PPFD & Live spectrum Light measurement: Apogee MQ-610 & Apogee DLI-600.

A plant with both standard cellular respiration (occurring throughout the plant, including leaves and stems) and adequate root respiration will have a significantly higher ATP throughput than one restricted to only general cellular respiration in a limited way. Cellular respiration is the fundamental metabolic process that occurs in all living plant cells (roots, stems, leaves, flowers, seeds) to convert glucose into usable energy (ATP). It requires oxygen and produces carbon dioxide and water as byproducts. Root respiration is not a separate type of respiration, but rather a specific instance of cellular respiration occurring in the roots. Roots absorb oxygen from the air spaces in the soil to fuel their energy needs. Roots require a substantial amount of ATP for essential functions like nutrient and water absorption, as well as growth and maintenance of their tissues. The primary form of respiration in healthy plant roots is aerobic respiration, which is highly efficient, yielding up to 30-38 ATP molecules per glucose molecule. Anaerobic Respiration (Inefficient): If roots are deprived of oxygen (e.g., in waterlogged soil), they switch to anaerobic respiration, which is far less efficient, producing only 2 ATP molecules per glucose molecule and also generating alcohol, which can be toxic and kill the plant. Therefore, a plant with healthy, oxygenated roots performing efficient aerobic respiration in addition to the rest of the plant's cellular respiration has a much greater overall ATP production and energy capacity. A soil without organic matter will generally have a low Cation Exchange Capacity (CEC). Biochar is often prized for its potential to increase soil cation exchange capacity (CEC), but this effect is highly dependent on the specific properties of the biochar (feedstock and pyrolysis temperature) and the soil type to which it is applied. High-ash biochars, especially those produced at lower temperatures and applied to acidic or sandy soils, can significantly boost CEC by providing abundant binding sites for cations like calcium (Ca²⁺), magnesium (Mg²⁺), and potassium (K⁺). Biochar is more sustainable than typical organic matter for long-term soil improvement primarily due to its high stability and resistance to microbial decomposition, allowing it to persist in the soil for hundreds to thousands of years. This longevity provides a lasting positive effect on soil properties, particularly by increasing the cation exchange capacity (CEC) over time, while regular organic matter breaks down much faster. Biochar generally offers a much higher CEC than coco coir, though specific values vary greatly; while coco coir might sit around 40-60 cmol/kg, biochar can range from tens to over 200 cmol/kg, with sources like Acacia wood biochar or even coconut shell biochar often surpassing coco's capacity due to its porous structure, creating significantly more cation-binding sites for nutrients, making it superior for nutrient retention. Needs to be charged similar to coco but at a much higger rate. But shhhh.. It's a secret. Ancient biochar-rich soils in the Amazon basin (known as Terra Preta) provide evidence of carbon stability lasting over 500 to 2,000+ years. Recommend a balanced ratio of key cations, particularly calcium (Ca), magnesium (Mg), and potassium (K). A widely accepted general "ideal soil" cation saturation ratio is approximately 65-85% Ca, 6-12% Mg, and 2-5% K. That's roughly what I give mine. Can even add N in its NH4+ form
