Week 6 Report: White OG – Shaping Her Future 🌟 We’re at Week 6 of veg, and the White OG is thriving like a superstar! This week, I decided to take her structure to the next level by topping a few branches, and let me tell you—she’s loving it. 🌿 The growth is vigorous, and she’s shaping up beautifully to maximize her potential for flowering. Let’s dive into what went down this week and why it’s all so important for her journey. Branch Topping: Building a Strong Framework After recovering beautifully from her initial topping at node 7, it was time to refine her structure further by topping a few branches. For each branch, I left two nodes to ensure strong, healthy growth while encouraging a bushier canopy. Why Top Branches? Topping isn’t just for the main stem—it’s an essential technique for creating an even canopy and increasing yield potential: 1. Encourages Lateral Growth: By removing the top of a branch, the plant redirects its energy into the remaining nodes, encouraging side shoots to grow and fill out. 2. Maximizes Light Penetration: A bushier plant with more branches ensures that all parts of the plant get access to light, reducing shading and improving photosynthesis. 3. Improves Structure: A strong, evenly distributed framework sets the stage for a healthier plant that can support larger buds during flowering. The decision to leave two nodes per topped branch ensures a balance between promoting growth and avoiding unnecessary stress. Tent Conditions: Consistency is Key The room conditions this week have remained steady and perfect for her vegetative stage: • Temperature: Around 18°C—cool but manageable, keeping her growth steady. • Humidity: At 60%, maintaining just the right level to support her root zone and foliage. • Lighting: The Future of Grow (FOG) LED at 200 PPFD continues to provide optimal light for compact, strong growth. i will dim it up soon! These consistent conditions give her the environment she needs to recover quickly from topping and focus on building her structure. Nutrient Routine: Trusting the Pellets This week, I’ve continued with the Aptus Holland All-in-One Pellets as the primary nutrient source. They’re working their magic, providing a steady release of nutrients to support her vigorous growth. As a backup plan, I’m always ready to reintroduce All-in-One Liquid if she starts showing signs of needing more immediate nutrition. For now, she’s thriving, and the pellets are doing an excellent job of meeting her needs. Training and Future Plans Topping a few branches this week was just the beginning. I’m planning to continue topping over the next few weeks to shape her into a bushy, evenly distributed plant. By focusing on creating a strong structure now, she’ll be perfectly prepared for explosive growth when we flip her into flowering. Looking Ahead: Growth on Overdrive 🚀 As Week 7 approaches, I’ll be monitoring how she responds to the additional topping and ensuring her environment stays consistent. The goal is to encourage her lateral growth while keeping her stress levels low and her energy focused.

Day 29 - Looking great! I'm liking the Roots soil so far, very healthy looking plants. As the differences between LST and topping become more apparent I'm realizing I like topping more. The burst of growth to the side branches after topping does wonders for the structure of the plants. Pulled the two LST'd plants down a little lower and topped WWBB1 for the second (and probably last) time. Day 32 - Still right on track. Gotta start considering when to flip to flower as the sativas continue to take up vertical space.

Die ersten Tage an der frischen Luft haben die Ladys gut überstanden. Die einzige Nacht die mir zu denken gab war die Nacht von Tag 6 auf Tag 7. Die Nacht wurde mit 7°C vorhergesagt. Ich hab die Ladys über Nacht reingeholt, damit sie in dem frühen Stadium nicht allzu sehr herausgefordert werden. Sie wurden dann nächsten am nächsten Morgen zurück nach draußen in die Sonne gestellt. Die Nächte sollen jetzt nicht mehr unter 10°C. Damit bleiben sie jetzt Tag und Nacht draußen. Diese Woche haben sie in einem kleinen Gewächshaus verbracht. Damit es nicht zu heiß wird, bleibt eine Seite offen und die Luft kann auch besser zirkulieren. Die Ladys bleiben vermutlich noch ca 1 woche in dem Gewächshaus und wenn sie dann etwas kräftiger sind, stehen sie unter freiem Himmel. Jede Lady kam an Tag3 in ihren Endtopf und auch ins Freie. Die StrawberryBanana steht in einem 11l Topf und die GorillaAuto und die GorillaZkittlez stehen jeweils in einem 8l Topf. Bei jedem Topf ist ca 1l weniger an Substrat im Topf. Der letzte Liter Substrat kommt mit dem Blütebeginn in die Töpfe. Jede Lady steht in einem Substratgemisch. Die Basis bildet Biobizz LightMix. Es wurden ca 5l BioBizz LightMix mit 2l Cocos/Perlite(70/30) gemischt. Jeder Topf bekam 5 gehäufte Esslöffel Megaworm, 1 gehäuften Esslöffel Batguano in die untere Hälfte des Topfes. Beim einsetzen der Ladys gab es ein wenig Great White Mykorrhiza an die jungen "Wurzeln" und auch ein wenig in dem Bereich wo sie eingesetzt wurden. Der Rest wurde mit dem Substartgemisch aufgefüllt. Auf die Oberfläche wurde ca 15g BioGrow von GreenHouseFeeding mit eingemischt. Da die Ladys vermutlich nach ca 3-4 in die Blüte gehen und generell nicht allzu viel Dünger brauchen, sollte das mit dem Megaworm und Batguano die unten mit eingemischt sind, bis zu Blüte reichen. Zu Beginn der Blüte wird der letzte Liter Substrat mit 20g BioBloom von GreenHouseFeeding, 2 gehäufte Teelöffel Batguano und 4 gehäufte Teelöffel Megaworm von Plagron gemischt und in die Töpfe gegeben. Angegossen wurde mit 1ml/L PowerRoots von Plagron und 1g/L BioEnhancer von GreenHouseFeeding. Jede Lady hat ca 500ml mit einem ph-Wert von 6.5 bekommen. Vorher wurde die Oberfläche anständig angefeuchtet damit das Wasser beim gießen nicht einfach durchläuft. An Tag7 war es erst nötig das zweite mal zu gießen. Auch hier gab es ca 500ml mit einem ph-Wert von 6.5. Vielen Dank fürs reinschauen liebe Growmies 💚

Week 6 Veg - January 16/21 to 22/21 ***** Week 7 will be their last week being able to take them out of the tent😟 SCROG netting going in on the weekend ahead. Not really a lot to report this week as the girls are doing well and I am just wanting their side branches to grow longer to help filling in the canopy anyway. Performed more LST this week and bending over the branches daily. Didn’t do any HST this week, will once the net is in and I have a better visual of how the branches need to bend. They have come a long ways over the last 2 weeks when you look back at pictures. They have filled out with more side branching and other than battling a little purple striping on the main stems they seem pretty happy. Leaf colour is good and should be in good shape for the flip soon. Will go through all of week 8 before flipping so hopefully week 9 will be transition week and week 10 the start of flower.......have to get through next week first though😀👍 Switching over to tap water again. I have been struggling with calcium and magnesium deficiencies on all grows for the last year. I can’t seem to get the right amount added back to the RO water I use in all feedings. So running with straight water again now. Ppm coming out is 325 so I will work with that. Going to explore my own RO system in the house rather than bottled water, a system that adds back calcium, magnesium, and iron. It’s been flowing okay for the first week and will continue on for now. Using RO water I have been feeding full strength on the nutrients and have been working on backing them down a bit to compensate for the starting point of 325 now. They have continued to be fed once a week roughly and supplemented with calmag and microbes. Little more detail....... Jan 16/21, Day 36 Veg - 3L each of full line at full strength in RO water - 1150ppm and 5.8pH given to the girls - didn’t add any other nutes other than IPP line. Jan 17/21, Day 37 Veg - dry out day - pulled down all the girls again tonight to train them outwards. - Jan 18/21, Day 38 Veg - 3L for each girl today with tap water and CalMag @ 1ml, Microbes @ 2ml, Nature’s Candy @ 1.5ml - 700ppm and 5.7pH is what that works out to. - have to use a considerable amount of pH down to adjust the tap water, over 6ml in 16L Jan 19/21, Day 39 Veg - measured the girls today, GSCHB Is 12” tall. They were topped already😀 - dry out day for the girls. - Jan 20/21, Day 40 Veg - 2.5L each with plain tap water - 295ppm and 5.8pH. - all the girls are looking big and bushy today.......they are ready for flip soon. Jan 21/21, Day 41 Veg - dry out day for the girls. Jan 22/21, Day 42 Veg - pulled all the girls down again......repeating the same LST each day manually rather than tying down for now. - this should be water day but leaving for today as I am going to lolipop the lower branches and a heavier leaf stripping tomorrow. - will feed tomorrow as they will benefit more. Very solid week ETS......the girls are taking off and expect to see lots of leaves popping out over the next couple of weeks😀👍 Work on the side branching to come up higher closer to the tops next week.......continue tap water and give a feed with Epsom Salts new week

Hello everyone 😎 Week 5 of flower for the Tropi🌴🍪 The top buds are ready✂️ Harvest in 2-3 times… Amazing buds solid as a diamond 💎 It’s not easy to get this result with an autoflower. Exactly what I’m looking for and this is why I love so much Fast Buds🤩 And when you get this result the trim is easier😁

Day one of week 7! Saturday 3rd Oct. Yay I made it to week 7!! First week of flower! Flipped the lights and the girls are getting their first 12 hours of darkness as I type. As soon as it’s lights go on I’m gonna get the next lot of nutes in as they seemed almost ready for a feed when I put them to bed. Getting a little nervous the temps are a still bit high as we go into flower but these girls seem hardy so staying positive! UPDATE: Day 2 of week 7, Sunday 4th Oct. Girls still looking strong and nutes gone in again today. Got a fan blowing onto the outside of my tent (which is helping lots) as the slightly lower humidity levels are really heating things up with the dehumidifier working harder inside the tent now, especially around watering time. Fan at full whack, if this doesn’t work I may have to get an intake fan but was trying to avoid extra costs. Keeping a close eye 👁️ UPDATE: Tuesday 6th October Day 4 of week 7 Nutes in again and a little more teasing with the LST to keep the girls low on the stretch. Think I found a little white hair 🤩🤩 (see pics).... It’s getting exciting.. 🤓 UPDATE: Thursday 8th October Day 6 of week 7 Ok great news today.. All four ladies have some pretty little pistils all over various bud sites and no hermies in sight! Phew! 😅 Nutes going in too 👌🏼 Happy growing and all that jazz! 🍃🍁👌🏼❤️

Hi liebe Freunde des grow sports ✌️, ich hoffe die Woche mir euren Ladys war genau so problemlos wie meine 😁. So zum wesentlichen am 30.04.22 war wie immer nur zu schauen dann am sonntag den 01.05.22 war giessen angesagt, reines wasser (ph 6,5) und diesmal 0,4 g/L wasser microbes von biobizz werde diese woche keine Nahrung zuführen da ich finde das die ladys ein ziemlich sattes grün vorweisen. Montag den 02.05.22 war Nach justieren der Äste damit die t-Form einiger maßen erhalten bleibt. Am 03.05.22 musste wieder alles neu justieren da die befestigung nicht richtig saß. 04.05.22 für die Lady im 3,6 L Topf gab es heute das 2. Topping und weiteres justieren für sie damit die t Form bleibt. Am 05.05.22 war dann das 2. Topping für die anderen 4 die im Zelt bleiben dran und wieder neues fixieren der t-Form. Und am 06.05.22 musste ich wieder giessen reines wasser (Ph 6,5) das war es mal wieder für diese woche, euch allen ein Mega wochen ende........

They smell great. Not a hard grow, but not stabilized genetics. 4 different phenos all with differing flowering times. Make it tough when you use your grow tent as a dry tent to contain smell. Had to buy another tent just to dry the ones that were finished instead of risking them herming. 5.8 oz dried and trimmed bud. Didn't weigh larf/trimmings but will be dry sifting it for the press.

Una settimana colma di cambiamenti, é incredibile come le piante senza nessun tipo di training si adattino perfettamente tra di loro allo spazio circostante, quanti sensori possiedono le piante? Come comunicano tra di loro? mi ha sempre affascinato...
