Placing a dehumidifier or humidifier in the grow box turned out to be ineffective when both devices have their own automated settings. For instance, a humidifier set to 55% humidity works within a ±5% range, meaning it waits until the humidity drops below 50% to turn on and runs until it hits 60%. Since its sensor refreshes every 30 seconds, it might show 54% one moment and jump to 61% the next—not exactly stable at 55%. The dehumidifier behaves similarly. To achieve more consistent results, it’s better to rely on a hygrometer inside the grow box and use “dumb” devices that simply turn on when powered. Connecting these devices to smart outlets provides more precise control. For manual control, I maintained around 55% humidity by turning the humidifier and exhaust fan on and off via phone. Most moisture and aroma are released during the first three days, then taper off. The common rule of “when thin branches snap, it’s dry” led me to overdry my buds. A more reliable method is to monitor the hygrometer. When humidity stabilizes after the initial rise, wait one more day and then jar the buds. Rehydrating Overdried Buds: Overdried buds can be revived with a small piece of mandarin (or orange) peel, about 2.5x2.5 cm. Thoroughly wash the peel (even sanitize it if needed), cut a square, and place it on top of the buds in the jar. In my experience, this brought the humidity from 46% to 62% within 4 hours. Afterward, burp the jars for 15 minutes and monitor the hygrometer. If the humidity drops below 55%, return the peel for a few more hours. Once stable at 60-62%, remove the peel and continue curing, burping the jars twice daily for 15 minutes. As for humidity packs like Integra Boost or Boveda, I used them because I had some lying around. These packs are designed for 12 grams of product, so they don’t make a big difference in larger jars. If you burp jars daily and gently rotate the buds, they’re not really necessary. Trimming and Results: After 7 days of drying, I decided to trim dry this time. It turned out to be somewhat more convenient—everything gets covered in resin anyway, but the remaining leaves easily fall off, speeding up the process. I went for a tight trim, removing as much as possible. During the process, I felt disappointed seeing how little remained on the branches. The buds turned out airy and small, and I started cursing American genetics halfway through the trim. However, when it came to weighing, the results were surprisingly decent. Considering the buds' poor appearance, they’re not going to impress anyone visually, so it might have been easier to shred everything and use it for extraction. I don’t have extraction equipment, so I’ll make cannabutter from the trim, and the buds can rest in jars for now. Takeaways: Use a proper hygrometer for humidity control, not built-in sensors on humidifiers or dehumidifiers. Overdried buds can be easily rehydrated with citrus peel. Daily burping and rotation are sufficient for curing without humidity packs. Dry trimming can be faster and more convenient but may highlight issues with bud density. Despite underwhelming appearance, high resin content makes the strain great for extraction.

Well we finally reached the end. The last week was more cruise control. Just trying to remove the big fan leaves that's blocking any flowers. The trichomes looking kinda ready but still acceptable. During the last few days I maintained a daytime Humidity of around 60 and nighttime of 55. Temperatures are between 73 degrees and 67 degrees. Two days before chop they got 48 hrs of dark and 3 days of no water to add to the stress. After the 48hrs darkness all the ladies Came out extra frosty. Loving the change of hues on the blue gelato. The vanilla Kush is very oily and very very strong smell. Not a strong smell coming off the OrangeGelato though. The green gelato has a creamy smell.

Yoyo 🤙🏽 I've been away for a while, but the next update of the project is coming, after some minor problems with the lamp settings, I gave the bushes a little over 2 weeks more veg to regenerate and recover, which made my veg much longer, but oh well... the selection is over was also done and only the prettiest and strongest plants remained, already 11 liters of pots, it's getting dense, so today I change the light to 12/12 and let them start blooming. Apart from that, everything is fine, the girls are nice and healthy. Day 53 Varieties: 1x Dosi berry from @theoutlawseeds 1x GMO Cookies from @panpestkapl 1x Persian Pie from @greenhouseseeds_ 1x Forbidden Fruta Cake from @narcosseeds 1x Hardcore Mac from @nashageneticsofficial 1x Black Apple from lovecannabisseeds Light - 18/6 Day/night temperature - 28°C/23°C Ph - 5.9 EC - 1.2 Box - @spiderfarmerofficial Lamp - spiderfarmer SF4000 Soil and nutrients - @bac_online_nl @sr_organics_ And living soil More updates coming soon 👊🏿😁💯

Buenas noches familia, de nuevo actualizamos el diario, y acabamos la cuarta semana de floración, vaya brazos laterales que están tirando, se van a poner hermosas, se las ve sanas y vigorosas, nota mucho la forma sativa de sus hojas así que veremos lo que tardan en florecer. Ph controlado a 6,5 y humedad por debajo de 45% not bad las condiciones temperaturas mínimas de 20 y maximas de 27,5 Grados. Al atar las puntas los brazos tendieron a ir a la luz y gracias a eso la planta está tomando la forma de la esquina.

The strawberry gorilla is a really pretty plant. The stems are super reddish purplish. All of the leaves are starting to get a red and rainbow color to them. The plant really smells like gorilla glue it’s really nice. The plant is stacking really nicely even without super extreme light durring the strech. It’s definitely prone to stacking large colas. This is a winner I might have to try this plant again in the fut

Lovely lady... but getting a little weird in that I've had to reduce her EC several times... I guess she just doesn't LIKE a whole lot of nutes! It's been a struggle this past week trying to get the pH and EC balanced out so they're both stable... and it ALWAYS happens to me about this time in each grow. Some year, I'll figure it out - until then, I'll remain a bit frustrated! LOL! Toying with the idea of doing more "defoliation" to get rid of what I KNOW will be larfy buds... even though I haven't officially "scrogged" her, I've used LST to essentially produce the same results so I'm planning to do a little lollipopping on her... might as well be today! Sorry I haven't been keeping up this diary in the manner I had been... I've got a lot of idiot things going on in my life. If you ever have questions about what I'm doing or not doing with this grow, just DM me and I'll try to explain.... :-D 03/28 .... ok, she's now officially driving me bonkers. Wild pH swings even while the EC holds steady... I can't figure out what she wants at all but we continue to talk to each other... I'll figure out her language soon enough! She's going through a massive stretch period now which might be the cause of all the drama going on inside the bucket... just SHOOTING up and looking fine even if the numbers aren't what I would call happy. Gave her a pretty decent haircut just before she started stretching and I'm glad I did... so many more buds are now getting full light and I've got the canopy where I want it... Might have to do some more LST down the line if she gets much closer to the lights although I DO still have some room to move them up (thank god I got a taller tent!). She's taking her nap right now so I'll post more pictures when she wakes up.... OK... new pics are up as is a video...

Bonjour à tous les padawans et maîtres jedis stretch 15 centimètres (Stretch explanations more) EXPOSURE TO LIGHT One of the main culprits in abnormal stretching of cannabis plants is the lack of light. Plants that are too far from an adequate light source will respond by accelerating stem growth in order to get closer to the lamp themselves. Especially when there are many other plants. A lack of lighting can easily cause overcrowding in a growing chamber, reducing the steady progression of your crop and the distance ratio between your bulbs and your plants. To address this problem, be sure to provide enough light to your plants to prevent stem growth. At the same time, you should not position your lights too close to your plants either since this would also result in an over-stretching of the stems and in some cases, the loss of your crop. In addition to the distance between the light source and the plant, the type of light you will use also affects the size of the stretching of your crop. The orange and red lights encourage stretching and result in thinner, larger stems. And conversely, blue light stimulates a growth of thicker stems and a smaller size. When a species is ready to enter the vegetative phase and undergo its most drastic stretching period, metal halide lamps can be used to deter far too long stems. THE HEAT Heat is another essential element that can determine the stretch size of your plants during vegetation. Temperatures above 27 degrees push the stems to lengthen more and more and will propel the potential of sativas to push as high as possible. Heat lamps that are positioned too close to plants create an intolerable environment that will grow large, soft plants that will potentially wobble until they fall and lose flowers in its fall. OTHER CAUSES OF STRETCHING There are multiple variables that can lead to the stretching of plants beyond what could normally be expected of the plant. Environmental stressors resulting from transplantation (when a plant passes from one pot to another) can cause the plant to return to shock. This will eventually trigger a reaction causing a stretch. Cannabis plants that are not grown in decent conditions or do not receive enough nutrients will respond in a variety of ways and this includes stretching. Crops that are not spaced far enough apart are likely to stretch to sting the light to other plants. Due to extreme proximity, the plants will fight among themselves to reach the light, forcing them to expand as much as possible throughout the crop. HOW TO CONTROL STRETCHING DURING FLOWERING Stretching during flowering, you guessed it, takes place when you move your plants from the vegetation stage to the flowering stage. This is a completely normal reaction, as your plants are preparing to bear the weight of their heads. Stretching of a plant at the beginning of flowering varies widely; some plants can double in height while others grow only a few centimetres. There are, however, two main variables that can give you at least an idea of how your plants are stretching during flowering, and how much. Here are these two variables: Variety: Genetics has the greatest impact on the size of your plant. In general, sativa varieties stretch more than indicas and tend to develop long, slender stems. Light: Some lights, such as HPS, are more likely to encourage stretching. In addition, great distances between your canopy and your lights will cause the plants to stretch as they try to get closer to the light source. Stretching during flowering usually lasts the first two weeks of the phase. To minimize stretching, keep your lights between 10 (for CFL) and 30 centimetres (for HID) of your canopy. Finally, choose indica varieties if you have a smaller growing space. HOW TO AVOID STRETCHING In many cases, you can expect your cannabis plants to stretch during the flowering phase. Keeping that in mind helps to make a plan in case your species ends up growing much more than you could have imagined. If the information is available, get information on the standard size of your species and compare it to the size of your growing space taking into account the necessary distances between the bulbs and the plants. TRAFFIC While outdoor crop operations benefit from natural air to naturally limit stretching, indoor crops must assume the maintenance of air circulation within a confined space. Basic ventilation is enough to help the cannabis stems strengthen and become thicker rather than too high. In this way, the plants continue to grow vigorously without reaching heights and at the same time, your tolerance ceiling. MANUAL INTERVENTION For growers who want to get their hands dirty, there are physical procedures that can be done to reduce stretching. Similar to the natural effect that the wind has on cannabis plants, manually bending the leaves and stems will cause tiny cracks in the plant's tissues that will cause the plant to focus on regenerating its wounds instead of its vertical growth. THE TOPPING Topping is a form of manual intervention on cannabis to influence its performance, shape or size. In essence, topping is a process in which a new node is cut, growing from the plant to reduce its size and create a "v"-shaped notch that will eventually form two heads. Topping may be an effective measure to combat stretching, but it is important not to do so when the flowering phase begins. In most cases, an abnormal stretch of cannabis plants will not completely destroy your crop. In fact, stretching can indeed help increase your performance. For growers with a growing operation large enough to contain tall plants, stretching can increase the total yield of a species with more vertical space for head formation. In both cases, stretching can easily be planned in advance and there are multiple solutions to help you with this problem which is all too common.

Sticky Braccoli Auto - Eternity Cup 2026
Week 10 Update – Sticky Broccoli Auto Late Flower / Staggered Harvest Begins This week marked the start of harvest. One plant had to come down early due to size and structural issues, but overall quality is still looking strong. The remaining plants are being staggered for harvest to dial in peak ripeness. ⸻ Drying / Post-Harvest Note • One harvested plant nearly filled the Cannatrol Cool Cure C • Space is now a real concern for the remaining harvest • May need to stagger loads or get creative with drying strategy ⸻ Lighting & Canopy Management • Installed under-canopy lighting (3/25) • ~24W per light • Producing 200–300 PPFD under canopy • Helps push lower bud development late into flower • Likely contributed to improved lower-site density ⸻ Feeding Strategy Shift • Fully transitioned to hand feeding • Removed emitters to prevent overwatering and improve control • Beginning staggered flush approach: • 2 plants switched to plain RO water • Final plant continues light feeding before final flush ⸻ Feeding Log 3/26 – Standard Feed • 4 gallons mixed, ~2.5 gallons used • ~5% runoff per plant • 5.8 pH Per gallon: • 0.5ml Silicium Bloom • 2ml MagCal • 4ml Green Sensation • 2ml Cocos A • 8ml Cocos B • 4ml Pure Zym ⸻ 3/27 – Accidental Heavy Feed (Adjusted) • Mixed wrong schedule, used ~50% • 900 ppm / 5.8 pH Per gallon: • 0.5ml Silicium Bloom • 2ml MagCal • 4ml Green Sensation • 3ml Cocos A • 12ml Cocos B • 4ml Pure Zym ⸻ 3/28 – No Feed ⸻ 3/30 – Light Feed / Transition Phase • Fed at lights on (~2:30 AM) • ~5% runoff • 430 ppm / 6.0 pH Per gallon: • 0.5ml Silicium Bloom • 2ml MagCal • 4ml Green Sensation • 2ml Cocos A • 8ml Cocos B • 4ml Pure Zym ⸻ Trichome & Ripeness Check • Majority: cloudy dominant • Some amber beginning to show • Small percentage still clear • Right in the harvest window depending on desired effect ⸻ Observations • Bud weight is seriously stacking – causing structural issues • Under-canopy lighting seems to be helping lower development • Plants are finishing strong with good resin coverage • Staggered harvest should help maximize overall quality ⸻ Next Steps • Chop 2 plants this weekend • Let final plant push another week for increased amber • Monitor Cannatrol capacity and drying timing • Continue RO water on finishing plants

Somango XXL in a Grow Box
Continuing to top/prune in different manners across the 14 plants. My first grow with this strain, so trying to learn what they will tolerate re recovery times. One plant (see pic) has its own thing going on! Node development is asymmetrical (like a clone) and each node has one HUGE fan and one smaller one. Not doing any training at this point (other than removing occasional fan leaves re light/air flow). I’m tempted to pull her from DWC and move her to coco and keep her in veg for a while. Might be an interesting mom!
