Buenas a tod@s... En esta tercera semana( que yo creo q sería como la primera con estas alturas y x lo q son tan pequeñas, se pasarason a tierra más de lo previsto, espeigaron y doblaron tu tamaño y se pasaron a maceta grande) justamente hoy se le agregaron nutrientes, algunos nuevos y otros q ya había usado antes... Eh mantenido al margen las medidas NPK recomendables y eh agregado algo x ahí q seguro va bien 😉 la humedad es estable generalmente, la temperatura tanbm... De momento no hay ningún problema, están fuertes y van creciendo bien, no le podemos pedir mucho a estas alturas, eso para luego... La semana q viene mejor... Buenos huemos para tod@s... ⚕️😎 🇦🇷🤝🏻🇪🇦

Looks like the girl recovered after the last fan crash. My medical splint helped her, she stands alone without help 😍. In addition, the stress apparently helped her induce large amounts of resin. It is completely white, the resin is even on large leaves. They are affected by burning nutrients, so the girl does not look so pretty. Anyway, I'm proud of her, she managed twice as much stress and she will definitely be tasty and potent 😘 💪

So, start of week 7...... At the moment I can't give you exact feeding amount, because I have to adapt to every plant differently, due to the different deficiencies. Plants look good though, the cherry cola buds start smelling and it's awesome, can't wait to test. The bigbud will take longer if I see bud development. But holy, they seem to be good yielders. Just curious to see how fat they will become. Update day 46 After some days of individual feeding the problem seems to be more or less settled. Only the big bud get extra nitrogen, cause it looks like they inhale it like I will do to their buds later:) So here is the 2 feeding schemes I am using now......All calculated per litre......the now receive about 750ml-1l of nutrition, besides the normal watering Sorry, I tried editing the format so it is clear which ammount belongs to which nutrient, didnt really work out.......only biogrow has two different ammounts.... Biogrow 1.5ml / 5ml Algamic 2ml CalMag 0.5ml Biobloom 4ml Topmax 4ml Canna TraceAmix 1ml And now imagine, I had to give them even more for about 2 weeks, as they were showing increasing deficiencies. This is by far the hungriest bunch of Ladies that I have grown. As far as I can guess from today, I think I will have to harvest on 2 different dates unfortunately. This really wasnt the plan and needs extra investing in another filter/vent for drying. Well, so I am forced to use my second tent, really horrible,lol........I already see me vegging while blooming haha. 3 cherries will be finished at week 10, the other one (the cripple I mentioned during vegetation) will need about two weeks more. I gues she will finish together with the bigbud. Concerning the "cripple" I have to say, it is not due to bad genetic......This one was just very sensitive with the ammount of light she got the first 2 weeks and this made her very slow in her development. About the bigbud I also made a mistake which was pretty stupid I guess.........She showed gender and I switched nutrition, but with the same ammount as the cherry cola, not keeping in mind she will need a bit longer and therefor needs to be fed differently. I guess that caused the problem for her. Well, we never stop learning, as long as our Name is not Donald J Trump..... What else can I say...........in an hour and a half the light will turn on and this time wont pass by, as I am fucking curious....... update day 47 Well, it is freakin insane........I increased watering level to 2,5 l per plant........like 1l pure water and then 1,5 nutrition.........cant believe myself. Fucking junkies,lol...............I will see what they did until tomorrow. But it looks like, they just can^^ Besides, I would love to live in this tent right now.......I am "checking" like 5 times a day and it seems they always get just a little bt bigger......IT maybe due to my passion got lost for many years....since I didnt want legal problems and so on.....I just feel happy in my element.........I just love it........good grow to everyone with the same kind of passion..........you guys know its so,nothing special (and I dont mean my ladies, just the general approach from real growers) So, here is another lyric I written I dont remember when....... When time is passing slowly The holy day comes near We´re waiting, hesitating Being nervous, awful fear It gives me joy to watch it But now all must disappear Slowly 3 long month have passed And now my dear.... I cut your head off! And your arms! The smooth smoke She makes me calm This is why I love my palm As I comfort them They get older During childhood And adolescence Until grown up They get much bolder But now I need the essence Of my love, my work, my stress I never mind and will confess I am a legal criminal And so I say Jah bless

Yesssss there we go, that's what I like to see!!! They are very healthy and thriving now that I got the light figured out a bit better. I will start turning up the power next week, right now it's at 65%. Started giving flower nutrients. Will remove the driver from the tent in a couple weeks. Overall I'm very happy with the tent situation right now. Cool to see how the plants recover from topping and training!!!

La planta cubrió exitosamente toda la superficie, tiene un sistema radicular sano, el único detalle es que cuando se hace el cambio de agua y se quita la red la planta se estresa un poco al volver a colocar la red

2nd net is up. Early bud formations are promising. holding up to the extremes pretty well, some leaves taking minor damage, but overall, she is holding up, gave her 1 night at 50F see how she would react, stressful. Not advised as it messes with her metabolism, but I want to see if it triggers any anthocyanin response. Love to see her purp up but no signs yet. Homework. If Rubisco activity is impaired and it cannot properly function or regenerate its substrate, the plant's leaves are likely to turn a pale green or lime green, a condition known as chlorosis. Essentially, Rubisco activity is highly regulated and susceptible to various environmental and metabolic factors that can cause it to become inhibited, leading to an apparent failure in RuBP regeneration due to a lack of consumption. Rubisco regeneration is intrinsically linked to nitrogen supply because Rubisco is a major sink for nitrogen in plants, typically accounting for 15% to over 25% of total leaf nitrogen. The regeneration phase itself consumes nitrogen through the synthesis of the Rubisco enzyme and associated proteins (like Rubisco activase), and overall nitrogen status heavily influences the efficiency of RuBP regeneration. RuBisCO is a very large enzyme that constitutes a significant proportion (up to 50%) of leaf soluble protein and requires large investments in nitrogen. Insufficient nitrogen supply limits the plant's ability to produce adequate amounts of RuBisCO, thereby limiting the overall capacity for photosynthesis and carbon fixation. Maintaining the optimal, slightly alkaline pH is crucial for the proper function and regeneration of Rubisco. Deviations in either direction (too high or too low) disrupt the enzyme's structure, activation state, and interaction with its substrates, leading to decreased activity and impaired RuBP regeneration. (LIME GREEN CHLOROSIS) Structural Component: Nitrogen is an essential building block for all proteins, and the sheer abundance of the Rubisco protein makes it the single largest storage of nitrogen in the leaf. Synthesis and Activity: Adequate nitrogen supply is crucial for the synthesis and maintenance of sufficient Rubisco enzyme and Rubisco activase (Rca), the regulatory protein responsible for maintaining Rubisco's active state. Nitrogen deficiency leads to a decrease in the content and activity of both Rubisco and Rca, which in turn limits the maximum carboxylation rate, Vmax, and the rate of RuBP regeneration Jmax, thus reducing overall photosynthetic capacity. Nitrogen Storage and Remobilization: Rubisco can act as a temporary nitrogen storage protein, which is degraded to remobilize nitrogen to other growing parts of the plant, especially under conditions of nitrogen deficiency or senescence. Nitrogen Use Efficiency (NUE): The allocation of nitrogen to Rubisco is a key determinant of a plant's photosynthetic nitrogen use efficiency (PNUE). In high-nitrogen conditions, plants may accumulate a surplus of Rubisco, which may not be fully activated, leading to a lower PNUE. Optimizing the amount and activity of Rubisco relative to nitrogen availability is a target for improving crop NUE. Photorespiration and Nitrogen Metabolism: Nitrogen metabolism is also linked to the photorespiration pathway (which competes with carboxylation at the Rubisco active site), particularly in the reassimilation of ammonia released during the process. To increase RuBisCO regeneration, which refers to the process of forming the CO2 acceptor molecule Ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate (RuBP) during photosynthesis, the primary methods involve optimizing the levels and activity of Rubisco activase (Rca) and enhancing the performance of other Calvin-Benson-Bassham (CBB) cycle enzymes. Biochemical and Environmental Approaches: Optimize Rubisco Activase (Rca) activity: Rca is a crucial chaperone protein that removes inhibitory sugar phosphates, such as CA1P (2-carboxy-D-arabinitol 1-phosphate), from the Rubisco active site, thus maintaining its catalytic competence. •Ensure optimal light conditions: Rca is light-activated via the chloroplast's redox status. Adequate light intensity ensures Rca can effectively maintain Rubisco in its active, carbamylated state. •Maintain optimal temperature: Rca is highly temperature-sensitive and can become unstable at moderately high temperatures (e.g., above 35°C/95F° in many C3 plants), which decreases its ability to activate Rubisco. Maintaining temperatures within the optimal range for a specific plant species is important. •Optimize Mg2+ concentration: Mg2+ is a key cofactor for both Rubisco carbamylation and Rca activity. In the light, Mg2+ concentration in the chloroplast stroma increases, promoting activation. •Manage ATP/ADP ratio: Rca activity depends on ATP hydrolysis and is inhibited by ADP. Conditions that maintain a high ATP/ADP ratio in the chloroplast stroma favor Rca activity. Enhance Calvin-Benson-Bassham (CBB) cycle enzyme activity: The overall rate of RuBP regeneration can be limited by other enzymes in the cycle. •Increase SBPase activity: Sedoheptulose-1,7-bisphosphatase (SBPase) is a key regulatory enzyme in the regeneration pathway, and increasing its activity can enhance RuBP regeneration and overall photosynthesis. •Optimize other enzymes: Overexpression of other CBB cycle enzymes such as fructose-1,6-bisphosphate aldolase (FBA) and triose phosphate isomerase (TPI) can also help to balance the metabolic flux and improve RuBP regeneration capacity. Magnesium ions, Mg2+, are specifically required for Rubisco activation because the cation plays a critical structural and chemical role in forming the active site: A specific lysine residue in the active site must be carbamylated by a CO2 molecule to activate the enzyme. The resulting negatively charged carbamyl group then facilitates the binding of the positively charged Mg2+ion. While other divalent metal ions like Mn2+ can bind to Rubisco, they alter the enzyme's substrate specificity and lead to dramatically lower activity or a higher rate of the non-productive oxygenation reaction compared to Mg2+, making them biologically unfavorable in the context of efficient carbon fixation. The concentration of Mg2+ in the chloroplast stroma naturally increases in the light due to ion potential balancing during ATP synthesis, providing a physiological mechanism to ensure the enzyme is activated when photosynthesis is possible. At the center of the porphyrin ring, nestled within its nitrogen atoms, is a Magnesium ion (Mg2+). This magnesium ion is crucial for the function of chlorophyll, and without it, the pigment cannot effectively capture and transfer light energy. Mg acts as a cofactor: Mg2+ binds to Rubisco after an activator CO2 molecule, forming a catalytically competent complex (Enzyme-CO2-Mg2+). High light + CO2) increases demand: Under high light (60 DLI is a very high intensity, potentially saturating) and high CO2, the plant's capacity for photosynthesis is high, and thus the demand for activated Rubisco and the necessary Mg2+ cofactor increases. Mg deficiency becomes limiting: If Mg2+ is deficient under these conditions, the higher levels of Rubisco and Rubisco activase produced cannot be fully activated, leading to lower photosynthetic rates and potential photo-oxidative damage. Optimal range: Studies show that adequate Mg2+ application can enhance Rubisco activation and stabilize net photosynthetic rates under stress conditions, but the required concentration is specific to the experimental setup. Monitoring is key: The most effective approach in a controlled environment is to monitor the plant's physiological responses e.g., leaf Mg2+ concentration, photosynthetic rate, Rubisco activation state, and adjust the nutrient solution/fertilizer to maintain adequate levels, rather than supplementing a fixed "extra" amount. In practice, this means ensuring that Mg2+ is not a limiting factor in the plant's standard nutrient solution when pushing the limits with high light and CO2. Applying Mg2+ through foliar spray is beneficial to Rubisco regeneration, particularly in alleviating the negative effects of magnesium (Mg) deficiency and high-temperature stress (HTS). While Mg can be leached from soil, within the plant it is considered a mobile nutrient, particularly in the phloem. Foliar-applied Mg is quickly absorbed by the leaves and can be translocate to other plant parts, including new growth and sink organs. Foliar application of: NATURES VERY OWN MgSO4 @ 15.0g L-1 in a spray bottle. Foliar sprays are often recommended as a rapid rescue measure for existing deficiencies or as a supplement during critical growth stages, when demand for Mg is high. Application in the early morning or late evening can improve absorption and prevent leaf burn. The starting point [of creativity] is curiosity: pondering why the default exists in the first place. We’re driven to question defaults when we experience vuja de, the opposite of déjà vu. Déjà vu occurs when we encounter something new, but it feels as if we’ve seen it before. Vuja de is the reverse—we face something familiar, but we see it with a fresh perspective that enables us to gain new insights into old problems. Come walk in the enchanted forest.

Almost there. Amber trichomes are starting to appear. Pretty sure it looks like that because of something I did or didn't do and has nothing to do with the name. Very interesting strain to grow.

Estuve un tiempo sin actualizar el diario porque me contagie de COVID, ahora un poco mejor vuelvo a actualizar. Flower58, las plantas están listas para la cosecha, en uno o 2 días empezaré a cortar y colgar para su secado. Drying, secando con parámetros de humedad de 60% a 16°c por aproximadamente 2 semanas, están a 2 o 4 días de estar listas para pasarlas a frascos y ver cuánta cantidad final se logró.

Northern lights grew great in the Pro-mix medium size hp bag. She had a struggle through the grow. She really wanted more space to root. I did have a salt build up towards the end of vegging. A few minor issues beside that. She did fill the little Spider Farmer tent. She turned out great. Thanks again Pro-mix, Medic Grow, Spider Farmer, and Divine Seeds. This wasca slightly different style grow compared to my usual methods using the Pro-mix. I really enjoyed it. 🤜🏻🤛🏻🌱❄️ Thank you grow diaries community for the 👇likes👇, follows, comments, and subscriptions on my YouTube channel👇. ❄️🌱🍻 Happy Growing 🌱🌱🌱 https://youtube.com/channel/UCAhN7yRzWLpcaRHhMIQ7X4g.

Its been growing strong I will be tieing it down more later. I feed folllowing the week 3 bio bizz schedule so far so good, the plant seems to have responded well to topping 1 more week I think she will flower tho. As you can see in the pic there is 2 more new arrivals. So in the room now is, 2 x 420 fast bud orange sherbert, nearly done now. 1x barneys watermelon zkittles, day 24 1 x 420 fast bud purplelemonade day 1 1x barneys runtz day 1 There all autos, last lot of my seeds. After these I will be running some ethos photo periods. More pics to come Day 27, the watermelon zkittles is throwing out white pisstils now and is going into flower, I will start a new week tomorrow on day 28 as week 1 of flower. I will do a little defoloation today on it and get rid of all the inward facing and big fan leaves so she is ready for the next half of her journey. The orange sherberts are doing really well, stink of orange ice lollies, getting some purple coming thru now on them too. I have started feeding the plants 3 x a week like the biobizz schedule says, I make 4 litres to last the plant the week.

🍁Dicas e sugestões? As meninas agradecem. 📸Update de fotos, vídeos e informações diariamente. DAY 29 As meninas vão ficar alguns dias sem água até secar completamente suas raízes. Agradeço @LaBossanova @Mr_Weeds_Autos pela dica do overwater. O diagnóstico ajudou muito! DAY 30 Como é meu primeiro cultivo estou fazendo algumas experiências práticas para entender mais sobre a PLASTICIDADE FENOTIPICA e FISIOLOGIA DA PLANTA na prática. Das 5 sementes: ✂️C1 e C3 parecem estar felizes com a poda e LST. ☀️C4 também está muito feliz morando na varanda, com o sol da manhã, me ajuda a observar o comportamento da planta na luz natural. COP e C2 iniciarão as podas ainda esta semana...ou não😁estou tentando criar intimidade. DAY 31 Terceiro dia sem regar as meninas. Consertando o overwater. Boa notícia: O calor foi embora e voltou a marcar 26°C no grow. DAY 32 Após breve seca, as meninas receberam um pouco de água oxigenada para ajudar as raízes prejudicadas com o overwater. DAY 33 Minhas garotas estavam com sede, ficaram felizes... Eu também! Espero desta vez não errar na quantidade de água. DAY 34 Aumentei o intervalo das regas. Acho que estou acertando. DAY 35 As podas resultaram muito bem. Ansioso pela próxima semana. 🎃Obrigado por verificar meu cultivo.

Harvest was nice and buds are dense. Very few popcorns on lower branches. I'm pretty sure this a good genetic strain and i want to grow it again .
