So this is the Tear Down week. The timing of it makes it so i will need to the harvest flag in a few days when I can weight and test the plants. I have included the Cleaning, and Cutting and some Root Porn. I will make the harvest post in about 4-5 days, when I can trim these plants. There is a lot of Plant here. I got way more than I was expecting. I don't have a scale that measure this amount of plant, without taking like 10 measurements and then adding them together. So I will just be posting the dry weight. I will post the wet weight as dry weight * 1.65. Autopots: Wow, what a great product. I have been blown away by how well and how easy it was to work with them. They really did solve the watering issues. Excellent product. If you are a beginner, start with Autopots. -= Lessons Learnt =- - Overdrive the air to your Autopots. In my control plant, I used a small rectangle air stone (instead of a standard air dome). This lead to root rot and some other issues, it also put significantly less air into the water. The root rot, give the material for the Brown Algae to grow. Using a huge Air-disc-Air-Stone would be an excellent combo to mix in with the air dome itself. Something like this: https://www.amazon.ca/Pawfly-Diffuser-Suction-Hydroponics-Aquarium/dp/B01MY3AQ33 at the bottom and the air-dome on top of it, will be what I do with my next experiment. - Air stone in the reservoir. I had two instances where algae grew into the res. An air stone would have helped. It would have also helped my control plant get less root rot. Given the amount that the air-domes and air sources got engulfed, having the water have more o2 in it would have only been beneficial. - Don't grow 6 plants in a 4x4. Since my control plant was about 1/8th the size of the others, I think I could have grown 5 in the shape of a 5 (on a 6 sided dice)⚄ This placement would give a much more spaced canopy for airflow and more importantly light. The sides of some of the plants were lighter green and produced larf due to lack of light penetration. - This tent was on 19-5 schedule. This worked out very well for this strain. After every lights on, they were in the praying position, so this strain was able to recover in that 5hrs off. If I had more seeds, I would run these again, and try 20-4. I think this strain could handle it. All for all, I think I'm going to 19-5 as my default timing. This kept up a solid DLI. - Staring at .9EC (really .7 EC cause my water here is .2 EC) Then bumping up at .1 a week, until 1.6EC worked out VERY well. I experimented on this crop all the way up to 1.9EC, which burnt the tips of this plant. I think if I did this strain again, I would do 1.6EC until 3-4 weeks left then crank it to 1.9. It did plump them up when I went to 1.9, however it left them looking rough. Bulk was added though. - Sticking to 6.0PH for all of veg, and 2 weeks into flower worked great. The plant had solid and consistent color and leaf shape . The plant's did get hurt, due to some issues (as noted on the weeks). I switched to 6.5 PH in the last 3-4 weeks and it helped them recover, and plump up noticeably. -VPD. The #1 thing I focused on was VPD. I keep it .9kpa range, as best as humanly possible. It was honestly, HUGELY noticeable compared to my other grows. I know truly understand the value of properly dialed in VPD. This is the one lesson that will stick with me forever. - Super-cropping: On the plants I give the chiropractic treatment too, had much thicker stems as much larger channel internally. I did this treatment to 4 of the 6, and the 4 that had it done has larger buds and recovered from defoliation faster. TLDR; VPD is king. Super-cropping is worth the time. Keeping PH and EC dialed in were all wins. Autopots kick ass.

She's had a good week. Roots coming into their own and plenty of lush growth. Topped her this week - bit higher than I usually would - something like the 8th leaf.

Flowering has started to increase.

This has been an unusual week. 2 plants are still growing bigger than the other 2, but all are not extending out, but merely creating a tight bunch. And on 2 of them, the leaves are not a nice green, but sort of a drab green almost brown or yellow. I thought I might be over watering, so I have cut that back, and manually putting in some extra when I take my pictures. I also added a bit of nutes to see if that helped, but nothing seems to have changed.

For the first time I cut the leaves, for more extensive illumination of the upper part, due to the close location of the light of the plant, the trunk trunk grows and does not stretch upwards, I want to cover the entire area of ??the pot with one layer then start the flowering stage at 6-7 weeks I didn’t cut the leaves, but simply pressed them to the ground, since this is my first experience, I think that everything is going well, the plant eats a lot of nutrient fertilizers and looks good as you can see, the temperature in the box exceeds 27 degrees and it seems to her that temper tsya. in many of the moments, I would like to express a special thanks to such a cool grower like ctm_dzagi! Looking at his works of past cycles, I learned a lot and continue to learn, his technique and approach is great! Well, we are waiting for the fifth week)) Let's go!

Plants are under Scrog now and are beginning to fill it out. I defoliated again. And watered twice with transition to bloom level nutrients. Lots of molasses and I added bat guano and worm casting top dressing. I also added nematodes, and predatory mites to the soil as I find this keeps thrips from ever getting established. I had taken one of these plants and placed it into flower directly from seed to see what it would do and It has grown some very nice flowers already that started turning a deep purplish red at 2 weeks.

Bowling along. I've topped these plants early as I'm confined to a small space, I want to keep them as short as possible and flip ASAP, so let's see how that pans out😆😁

Hello Growers and Tokers! 👋 👩‍🌾 🧑‍🌾.🔥💨 Another week in flower, except for the height there isn't much progress with her. True sativa plant, thin leaves, big internodals spacing and she won't stop stretching.. 😪 I'm sure that if she keeps that up, she'll be towering over the other ladies. i'll have to raise the lights and raise my other ladies so that they're not too far from the lights. I've already moved her to the back where the tallest girls are, that way i want incline the lights a bit for better light distribution. Pictures taken on day 20, I did a light defoliation on the bottom, taking out all that growth that won't receive enough light penetration. Watering every other day like always.. That's it for this week, isn't much more to say.. Hope you all have a great day! One love!

Almost done with week 5 veg one more too go and these girls are getting flipped .they are doing great in my opinion tops coming up from every corner this should be a nice tent at the end of the day buds from side to side 😊

Bean popped in soil immediately upon sinking.

Another week has passed, and our beloved Cosmos F1 continues to amaze and astonish. It's as if the universe itself has bestowed upon her an extra dose of magic and wonder. I'm thrilled to share with you the latest chapter in our cosmic gardening adventure. As I gaze upon our beloved Cosmos F1, I'm filled with awe at her transformation. She has truly become a sight to behold, adorned with an abundance of frosty trichomes that shimmer like stars in the night sky. Her fruits have also become denser, promising a bountiful harvest that we can almost taste. While we estimate there's still another week until harvest, we'll remain patient and let her guide us to the perfect moment. In nurturing our cosmic beauty, I've continued to follow a simple yet effective regimen. I've provided her with pure water, ensuring she stays hydrated and refreshed. Additionally, I've incorporated Aptus Holland Enzym into her feeding routine, as I'm committed to preserving the vitality of the soil for future use. This approach not only benefits our current crop but also helps sustain the harmonious balance of life within our growing environment. Let's take a moment to appreciate the significance of this soil preservation. By cultivating in a manner that allows us to reuse the soil, we contribute to the sustainable practices of our gardening community. It's a small but meaningful step towards reducing waste and honoring the interconnectedness of our natural world. Last week, I mentioned my decision to defoliate our Cosmos F1. The room itself seemed to call for it, and our resilient plant welcomed the process with open arms, or rather, leaves. She embraced this adjustment with grace and resilience, showcasing her ability to adapt and thrive. I must say, defoliation has had a positive impact, allowing more light to penetrate her canopy and promoting healthy growth. As I reflect upon this journey, I can't help but express my gratitude to @James and to Royal Queen Seeds for bringing Cosmos F1 into my life. She truly embodies the essence of an all-in-one package, captivating both my imagination and senses. The experience of growing my first CBD strain has been nothing short of extraordinary, and I eagerly anticipate the cosmic culmination of our efforts. Together, we shall continue to revel in the wonders of the universe and allow its vastness to awaken our innate curiosity. Our Cosmos F1 is a testament to the marvels that can be achieved through patience, care, and a touch of cosmic inspiration. May our cosmic garden thrive and inspire others to embark on their own celestial journeys. Until next time, keep dreaming big and let the cosmos guide your green thumbs!
