🗓️ Week 5 – Nutrient Refresh, Net Adjustment & Light Optimization Arrived in week 5 with a complete nutrient solution refresh. This time using 2.5 ml/L Plagron Hydro A & B and 1 ml/L Plagron CalMag Pro, mixed into a total of 13 liters of water (the bucket turned out to be bigger than expected, according to the Amazon specs 15L). pH adjusted to 5.5 using Hesi pH-. During the water change, I lifted the SCROG net briefly to check on the roots – they’re looking great: bright, healthy, and strong. Net was repositioned afterward. The light is now running at level 8 out of 10, delivering around 800 PPFD in the center and about 700 PPFD at the edges, with a distance of 35 cm to the canopy – everything’s well dialed in! ————— 🗓️ Woche 5 – Nährlösung, Netz & Licht-Feinschliff In Woche 5 gab’s ein frisches Nährstoff-Update: Die komplette Lösung wurde ausgetauscht – diesmal mit 2,5 ml/L Plagron Hydro A & B sowie 1 ml/L Plagron CalMag Pro auf insgesamt 13 Litern Wasser Eimer misst mehr als gedacht – laut Amazon-Beschreibung 15L. Der pH-Wert wurde auf 5,5 eingestellt mithilfe von Hesi pH-. Beim Wasserwechsel habe ich das Scrog-Netz kurz nach oben gezogen, um den Wurzelzustand zu checken – sehen super aus: hell, kräftig und gesund. Danach das Netz wieder sauber positioniert. Die Lampe läuft nun auf Stufe 8 von 10, was etwa 800 PPFD in der Mitte bringt. Am Rand sind’s ca. 700 PPFD, bei einem Abstand von 35 cm zur Pflanzenspitze – also alles gut im grünen Bereich!

Did a top watering this week with some nutes added. Then back to plain RO water in the SIP. Seeing some light burn so lowered the PAR from avg 650 to 550. Tried a Co2 canister but without a proper lung room for this 10 x 5, it was pretty useless. Really getting into this hobby, love the abundance of free knowledge and different techniques available. Starting to resent those who I see bragging about "trade secrets". I've been spending more time in hash making discords, hash making twitch streams, and grower instagrams. It never ceases to amaze me what we can learn for free with some motivation and the internet. *I am growing 4 plants here, but only tracking one.

Hope to get some feedback about nutrition : After 1 plant developed a small brown tip, I started feeding. A total of 116.6 liters of water goes into my system. The feeding schedule says that you should give 4 ml of root juice per liter of water. So: 116.6 x 4 = 466 in total for week 1. So, 466/7 = 66.5 ml per day. Despite this, the differences in root growth per container seem very different. 1 bin was so far behind that I changed them. However, after 1 day a brown mass developed in the roots. The others are still nice and white. Is this already the bereft root rot? I've made some pictures and a video. The first plant in the video was first in the container of the third plant in the video. EC value = 0.6 PH = 6.6 Update 3-5 : After adding more air, problem solved. Need to keep an eye on plant #3. I've put sticks on top of the startblock. 1 stick is plant #1 etc. Plant 3 is behind the rest. Root development also differs from the rest. Instead of a long (about 50 cm) long carrot, they are a few short (10/15 cm). The plant is also significantly smaller than the rest. Can't do much now so, let's hope and see she can catch up.

This is a giant autoflower that reaches 150cm and produces massive yields of up to 600gr/m2, a modern Cali strain that offers what a top-quality Indica-dominant hybrid should; nugs capped in resin with the density you would expect from Indica-dominant strains and that bag appeal that will surprise even the most experienced growers. Expect beautiful purple and magenta hues that come along with a sweet almost pastry-like taste and, thanks to the 24% THC, a very pleasant and potent effect that surprisingly starts as a motivating high and in no time relaxes you completely, taking a bit of the energetic edge off.

May 12th 14th - most of the plants were watered with Nute Tea ** unsolicited… the vivosun e6 clip-on is an awesome small fan. Wonderfully made/finished and a super efficient tool for the tent. A No-Brainer of a purchase now that I see it work! 16th - she’s hit with a bit of a nitrogen deficiency and that changing. Coffee grounds mixed into surface, Worm Casting Tea for Dinner… - a few plants in the tent are showing it. All Purpose Fert 4-4-4 must be running low… - Will add half-dose of Granular Veg Fert (gaia green) to liquid dinner 17th - fed and Looking Good 👀 18th - last day of the week, back on track. 19th - found a big set of Nuts on the Afghan… we’ll have to try this one again ! Sorry Seedsman!

Well unfortunately mistakes were made. I didn't release the lst tie downs over time as she grew. So I end up finding the stress spilt the main stem in half right down middle so I used the ties down ties and tied it together and undid all lst tie downs. When I resumed lst training I used lst clips and don't use tie downs anymore. 6/25 Raised light from 18 to 20 Added water, Ph Found main stalk was splitting so undid all lst tie downs and taped together 6/26 Added water, ph 6/27 Lst with lst clips instead Raised light to 24" Turned light intensity to 100% Added 5ml cal mag 6/28 6/29 Added 1.6L, 3ml cal mag, 8ml hydroguard 6/30 7/1 nutrients 3/4 Bloom 3gal = 11.3L Micro 0.75/L=6.4ml Gro 0.75/L=6.4ml Bloom 1/L=8.5ml Cal mag 1.5/L=17ml Bud candy 1.5L=17ml Big bud 1.5/L=17ml Hydroguard 2/gal =6ml Raised light 7/2 lst, added water

Ladies and gentlemen today is day 42 and this girl is thriving.. i ended up switching my plants around and giving her the smaller tent because my other plant is just too big for the tent .. she's growing fast at 27 in and as you can tell, she's still stretching, although I think she's almost done, and we can start producing some flowers .. Kannabia seeds thank you guys for the opportunity to showcase your genetics.This has been a very easy grow thus far.. Thank you to everybody that stops by says. Hi, drops a like it does mean a lot and it is appreciated.. I hope and pray everyone is doing well. Happy and healthy God bless and and happy growing ✌️. Also, wanna mention that I am using general hydroponics silica, as well as general hydroponics, maxibloom ... half tsp each .. maxibloom is the main nutrient I use It's really an all in one.. you can buy a three pound bag, for fifteen dollars.. And use that only and you will have massive plans, and that bag will last you a year.. j/s .. i don't see many or any one else in here using it which is crazy because it grows the biggest plants i've seen out of any other nutrient... i understand it's salt based. All you have to do is feed to run off, and it's like steroids for your plants. No lie.. have a great day guys God bless 🙌

Merlin Mintz is up, and going. Great germination, and everything is looking good. My only concern is if the nutrition is too strong.

With the new netting up, I switched on the red lights along with the blues to help the plants stretch a bit to reach through the screen. It looks like it is taking effect, so late in the week (Friday) I trimmed some of the lower branches. Last week I FIMmed Zoe and Grace to give River a chance to catch up, and I expected 1 of 2 results: 1) FiMming will encourage growth in the cut plants causing them to grow taler than River, or 2) Things will stabilize and River will be on par with her siblings. But instead, I discovered a 3rd result: River is continuing to grow bigger and thicker each day and is even taller and fuller than her sisters. In addition though, the trimmed plants are developing nice, strong, sizable leaves, and most of the new growth is coming from down below, rather than near the top. Oh, and this week I added a new camera (Wyze) to the time lapses so I can take my pro camera out.
