Marijuana cultivation, like any agricultural endeavor, involves various techniques to optimize growth, yield, and potency of the plant. This is the week to make it happen! One such advanced technique is High-Stress Training (HST). HST is employed to control the growth pattern of the marijuana plant, making it more bushy rather than tall. This is beneficial for indoor growers with limited vertical space. Moreover, HST exposes more of the plant's foliage to light, which can lead to enhanced photosynthesis. This results in a plant that can produce more buds, which are denser and more potent. Given that light is a primary energy source for plants, maximizing light exposure can drastically improve the overall quality and quantity of the harvest. Topping is a specific form of HST that involves cutting off the main stem's topmost growth. This method forces the plant to divert its energy and nutrients to the lower branches, promoting the development of multiple main colas instead of a single dominant one. By encouraging a more even canopy, topping ensures that light is distributed more uniformly across the plant. This reduces the chances of having underdeveloped buds at the lower sections of the plant due to light deprivation. Topping also curtails the plant's height, making it more manageable, especially for indoor growers with limited space. HST and topping are integral for modern marijuana growers seeking to enhance their yields. These techniques address the spatial constraints faced by many growers and ensure that the marijuana plant receives optimal light exposure. The end goal of these methodologies is to increase yield and potency, and when done correctly, they can transform a mediocre harvest into a bountiful one. Cultivators who invest time in understanding and implementing these techniques stand to benefit significantly from their marijuana crops.

Bud sites are producing black/purple spot in leaves. Bud growth is producing as the days go by. Really excited with this being my first grow Nitrogen boost really helped with the deficiencies. Plants are starting to look really heathy... Prunes lower colas that weren't stretching past the canopy and receiving energy so more energy can be used towards the top buds

✨**Grow Report by Zuppler - Week 8 Flowering Phase** 👀🐗 Ayo, what’s good fam? Zuppler back with that Week 8 flowering update, and we’re gettin’ real close to harvest time now. Just two more weeks to go, and these girls are almost ready to shine. The buds have gotten so heavy I had to tie ‘em up to keep ‘em from toppin' over. They’re thick, dense, and full of weight – just what we’ve been workin’ for. I’ve already started flushin’ the medium, lettin’ ‘em clear out all the leftover nutes. The plants are respondin' well, and the fade is startin' to show real nice. Right now, almost all the trichomes are milky, and I’m just waitin' for that perfect amber to start showin' up. It’s a waiting game now, lettin' ‘em ripen and hit peak potency. The smell’s still crazy loud, and the resin is drippin’ like it’s made for the top shelf. Everything’s goin' smooth – temps, humidity, all dialed in to finish these queens off strong. We’re in the home stretch, and in two weeks, it’s choppin’ time. Zuppler signin’ out. The harvest is almost here, fam!

End of week 9 and I'm seeing just a few amber trichomes and most of hairs have turned brown so she'll most likely get chopped during week 10.

Been a great week, not much to say on the dynomyco as it's early stages but im sure to see major improvement over the next week! I will say at this early stage though I do have alot of stable new growth so shows something is working in them roots but as for my females now, wow it's already shown it's work there as I used it on transfer and mixed Into the medium of the rear females so I'm impressed being a first time user! I will say i have learned alot about it following ari and the firebudz team on Instagram, so if anyone needs any pointers check them out they run classes too! Next one is Wednesday at 5pm PST very very educational growmies! Peace and love and stay tuned for greatness 💪🏽💯👊🏽💚

#1 still not flowering it’s been almost 3 weeks since the flip to 13/11. #3 is loaded with buds!! #4 is also loaded. #3 and #4 aren’t stretching a ton, and I love that they seem to be putting all of their energy into making buds. I’ve defoliated some to keep the budsites in the light.

They are out of ground! The weather of the week was too bad I had to let the plants inside the house in front of a window. Lots of rain, clouds and cold nights. They would die outside.

Finally starting to look like she might be finishing, but every time I think that, a bunch of new pistils shoot out. Trichomes are getting more cloudy but still a lot of clear ones. Lots of stacked calyxes now packing on. Remember this plant has already had 5 zips of dried bud removed at 11 weeks! I have not changed the reservoir for 4 weeks, I topped it up with a little bit of extra nutrient after two weeks but there seemed no reason to do anything else, she has not been using much recently ppm is constant at about 800. Only now beginning to see some leaves dying. I'm going to let her go for as long as she wants.

The girls have been doing great this week ❤️ lots of fattening and stacking. They are giving off a greasy kerosene smell mixed with sandalwood at the moment and are stinking up my house whenever the tent is open. I have had to run my exhaust fan at level 10 for the past 2 weeks so that the smells aren’t overwhelming when you walk in. Temps have been consistent, and I haven’t had the need for added humidity, it’s been steady around 55-60% I have turned the fans up to ensure good airflow, hopefully we can just ride her out to some fat colas !

Not much happening this week. Unfortunately i may have overfed PK as thought the bottle said 7ml per L but instead was 0.7ml. Noticed tips of leaves the next day browning so checked the feed chart again and pretty much shit myself. Flushed all 3 plants for about 5 mins and now they seem ok hopefully.

Well week 5 of bloom is complete, and this week brought a few challenges. Humidity in my area has been through the roof, close to 100%. My heavy-duty equipment was struggling to bring my tent to acceptable late flowering levels, sometimes reaching over 60% RH, especially at night when the plant was respirating more. Additionally, her pale yellow color, and leathery leaves didn't excite me too much. If you remember, we had a severe heat wave a couple of weeks ago, which contributed to that. But also, since I messed up the ScrOG training, and regrettably decided not to super-crop her, a fair share of the leaf problems were due to light stress as well, as I didn't want to sacrifice lower colas, so I let it go. My biggest mistake this grow, was not paying attention to her the one day she decided to stretch nearly a foot, and was unable to be weaved into the net the next day without being snapped in half. My second biggest mistake is NOT snapping it in half, and letting it repair itself. I wouldn't have had nearly as much bleaching of leaves I think. This week, and I'm assuming because nearly all chlorophyll was depleted from her fan leaves, I didn't notice much of any change from last week. Her buds seemed to be about the same mass, and the stigmas still had the same ratio of red to white coloration. I suspected she was dead, or dying, or just...done. Not all genetics will transform all of their stigmas from white, and not all genetics will have their trichomes turn amber. So, I did a few things to confirm that suspicion. First, I looked at her trichomes on various buds closely with a microscope. They were almost all cloudy, with very very few amber. That told me that she was at an acceptable level of ripeness, even if she could have went longer, assuming she was still alive. Next, I removed the pea gravel mulch I was using in the raised bed, so I could get a closer look at the soil she was growing in, and more specifically, her roots. The soil, although moist a few inches deep, was not at the level I expected, and I think I have not been watering her enough. I don't think I'll be using a gravel mulch again. On the plus side, it did help prevent fungus gnats, as there was zero the whole grow, apart from an early week when I placed some solo cups to germinate on top of the bed, but after removing them, the fungus gnats disappeared with them. Also while inspecting the soil, I carefully dug down to inspect some of her primary roots. They were actually dry, despite the surrounding soil being moist. This could explain why she wasn't drinking much if any for the better part of the week. So, given her dry foliage, dry roots, and ripe-enough trichomes, I decided it was time to harvest her, earlier than expected. Let's also not forget that I was frightened this week with some high humidity scares, so growing longer, and possibly for no reason if she was dead or barely alive, was not in the cards. I've dealt with my fair share of bud rot before, and I would rather try what I have of her now, than to wait the extra week or so for her to be fully ripe. So, that is what I did, on the last day of the week -- I chopped her down, cut off some larger fan leaves, and hung her upside down. This, of course, was after removing the raised bed. It took me a while to empty about 45 gallons of soil so I could move it, but in doing so, I noticed a lot of beneficial critters, and nothing bad. Such critters included small centipedes, which feed on other insects, and soil mites which eat dead organic matter. I set the tent to dry at around 72F and 55 RH. And now we wait for about a week before trimming. One thing is for sure -- I am very proud of this grow, despite all these flaws. She smells incredible -- like pure citrus emanating throughout my house. This is a very strong-smelling plant. As a bonus, I've included a time-lapse video of the entire grow from start to finish in the last media above. Check it out and let me know what you think. I'll be back for the harvest week for the dry weight in about a week or so, after we're done drying and trimming.
