The honeydew fallout from the spotted lanternflys in the maple tree above have gotten out of hand. It's almost a constant mist. The only thing I could think to do beside moving them like an ancient Egyptian was adding a protective canopy of some sort. I wanted to get the clear poly weave but this green one was half price so went with it instead. With the way I have it oriented, it doesn't really block out that much direct sun too. In the morning and afternoon the angle of the sun is able to shine right on the plants. It's kind of a win win because should decrease my chances of mold later down the road towards harvest time if it does decide to rain a bunch. I tried washing the plants once this week with some light soap and water with a little baking soda mixed in. I rinsed with cone setting with hose right after and the plants were praying next day but i didn't have canopy up yet so they got hit again. I spotted several pale green assassin bugs on my plants so now Im a little nervous about washing the plants again because I want to keep them around. They are nymphs right now I may try to collect the ones i see become cleaning the plants one last time. Hanging that canopy was one of the more frustrating things I've done in a while. I wasn't sure If or how it would work but I has some medium gauge synthetic rope I tied to the eyelets and eventual 4 tree limbs. I had to bounce back and forth to get it tension climbing my fruit trees and 8 foot ladder. I originally disassembled an unused tomato trellis i built to use some of the lumber to build a post to tie off on in one corner but it ended up being at the wrong angle relative to the tarp and I started to get worried if a storm ripped it out of the ground. So I opted to used only the surrounding trees. After getting it all tension I realized that it was to far to one side leaving two of the plants almost exposed, so I had to come back the next day and re adjust but now I have it in a pretty good spot. I survived a decent storm already this week. Just hope it lasts. Overall making outside feel slightly leas stressful and anticipating more of a good harvest rather than just an experiment with my first outdoor grown.

Week 2 of veg and the plants are looking healthy and growing. It took the plants a good few days to get over the transplant shock. I understand now why you don't transplant auto-flowering plants. Day 13 of Veg: The plants are looking healthy and producing new growth.

January 24, 2019 The girls are doing WELL. My autos (Blackberry and NYC Diesel) are mid-flush now and will be chopped down this weekend. The Blackberry is a beautiful purple and smells lovely. This week she's been getting water only as a flush. I'm going to flush her one more time tomorrow, then chop her down over the weekend. 👍 ***January 26, 2019 update*** Cut down the FastBuds Blackberry and Barneys Farm NYC Diesel today and added a pic of the hanging branches. The NYC Diesel buds are much more dense than the Blackberry. The Blackberry buds are pretty loose and airy. I'm curious to see what they look like after drying for a week. Stay tuned...

Well, this is my end for now. I'm so happy as this has been my first grow, don't pay a lot of attention on the numbers, i don't have a weighing machine so i don't know what are the exact numbers, anyway i tried to aproximate them. Maybe if you can help me with an aproximate i would apreciate it! I've got a total of 6 complete 750cc Jar and 3/4 from the 7th one. You have more experience than me an maybe can correct me . Those numbers correspond to all the weight that i've got from 4 plants, as you can see there is a strange plant there, that was a mutant one that i was growing with the moby dick, idk what strain is, so I won't do any report of that, just posted the pictures because i liked them. As you can see all my grow was super cheap, I didn't used special lights or special nutrients, i never measured the ph and the EC but thos things paid me a lot, for the next grows I know that get the right measures is the best for growing cannabis, control they way they feed is essential. As I said before, i made a lot of mistakes that make that the plants didn't become XXL they wer like 60-80cm i just let them grow, i didn't use LST or something like that, just defoliate some times the yellow leafs. I want to say thank you to all the people that helped me during the grow, i think that my plants wouldn't made it if you didn't help me, thank you so much! Thanks to the growdiaries community! I just tried a little from the production and it was fantastic, i think that all the love that i have putted on the grow was returned on that smoke. I enjoyed a lot that woody taste. It's super nice. Will edit maybe in 2 months after a good cure is done.

26.12.24: I have noticed light stress on my plants. I had moved the lights further away and increased the light intensity to 70%. Unfortunately that created some issues. Namely severe palour of the leaves. To try and rectify the situation, I've dimmed the lights to about 30%, staying at the same distance, about 30 inches away. I measured the par levels, after I did this. They should a reading of anywhere between 40 and 150, at the canopy of the plants. They are all different sizes. This seems to have improved the colouring on all plants. After this evenings watering, I will monitor recovery and increase lighting intensity again slowly. I am also using the light cycle of 21/3, so the plants have many hours more light to absorb, than for example 12/12 or 18/6. I am pleased with the progress, considering all of my mistakes! 29.12.24: So I finally gave LST a shot, it's probably a bit too late, however I really want to get the most of the triploid pheno, and I went a little crazy and LST'd all plants except 2, as they're too small. I did that late last night, this afternoon I was amazed to see the plants turn their leaves back to the light source. I'm glad I overcame my fear of trying it. I'm very excited to see them adapt and progress! 😁 there are videos above with before and after of my LST process. Thanks for checking out my diary 🍃 ✌️

All right guys run day 33 in the middle of week four and this is my sixth time trying to upload this diary so fingers crossed this goes through... As you can see so far so good this is my first run with organics so these plants are nowhere near as big as my plans typically are so don't think it's due to genetics it's because I'm not giving them the cocktail mix that I give or gave my older ladies but I will say I'm probably going to go back to that because I like huge plants and I cannot lie 🤥 the taste of the flower I grow with synthetics is just as good if not better than what I'm getting at the Dispensary I believe it all boils down to how you dry it and cure it.. with that being said shout out to Sensible Seeds for giving me an opportunity to grow their genetics and give him a shot and so far so good.. I hope everybody is doing well have a great day and happy growing ✌️

The buds are getting bigger, two plants have started fading to yellow, while the one in the middle is severely overfed, which I did not realize at the time. Still quite happy with how they looked and that the canopy was quite even without much additional training besides the initial topping. I did bend the center plant's (the only one which wasn't topped) main branch to the side however.

29.01.2021. DAY 15 19:30 Frankenstein is already showing sex. Must be a world record :) . Noticed one fungus gnat flylier but still not doing anything about since is only one, maybe it came from outside. Keeping an eye on that flying bastards. Letting soil dry out as much as I can because fungus gnats lay eggs only on wet soil. Plant #2 is bigger than frankenstain and still not showing sex. 30.01.2021. DAY 16 23:50 Watered both plants with 1L of bottled water with 2ml rhizotonic, 3ml cannazym, 1ml terra vega(1/4 recommended normal feeding) - ph 6.5 - ppm 250. Started LST on both plants. Small crack on #2 plant from LST - my mistake, I didnt take my time and I rushed it :( . She will grow out of it its not a big deal but still mad at myself :). 31.01.2021. DAY 17 08:30 Both plants perking back up after LST. 01.02.2021. DAY 18 19:30 Some more LST. I managed to get the courage to bend plant #2 more, because it has a crack on the main stem :) .Plants are growing more horizontally now and I'm very happy about how they look now. I have a plan where each branch is going to be roughly. We will se how I manage flowering stretch :) . Lights lowered to 32cm from plants top. 02.02 2021 DAY 19 22:00 Watered with 1.2L of bottled water with 2.2ml of rhizotonic and 2.8ml of cannnazym. Ph 6.5 ppm 200. Both have very slight nute burn on the tips of the new growth. It's because of only 1ml of terra vega that i fed them last time. So they dont need nutes yet. Next watering will be with more water because think that around 1L of water did not penetrate deep enough for whole soil to be wet. Still don't know how much water to use next time. If someone who has similar setup and reading my diary can help be free to comment :) 03.02 2021 DAY 20 19:00 Did some more LST. Plants really enjoyed watering from yesturday. They were very happy :). Now after LST not so much :) 03.02 2021 DAY 20 22:00 Checked on the plants and saw plant #2 topped herself just below third node :( . I bent her over just a bit too much it seems. Really a shame. Both plants were looking perfect with the cannopy open and flat. I taped her up with duck tape and we will se how it goes. 04.02 2021 DAY 21 22:00 Plant #2 that has a broken main stem is doing nothing. No development on her at all. She is not turning yellow or growing at all. I hope she will recover. No thing new to add. Still very much depresed because I broke the stem :)

March 1, 2024 Day 15 A new week and a lot of changes. We are talking watering, nutrients, lighting and RH. First, let's discuss the look of these girls. They have extremely broad leaves and the yellowing was definitely a nutrient deficiency. The tops started turning a very light yellow. A sure sign of a deficiency. I'm not sure what it is though. Nitrogen or Cal/Mag? On of those. I think. They are both 3" tall now and are starting to really stretch. This leads me into the next topic. Nutrient regimen. Today started the Advanced Nutrients 3 part base at 2 ml/gal each and Advanced Nutrients Sensi Cal/Mag extra 2 ml/gal. They also got another dose of Recharge. That being said, out next topic is watering. I have changed up the watering to 500 ml every other day starting today. I'll keep a close eye throughout the day for any over watering issues, but I don't think there will be any. I have the moisture spread well throughout the entire container. No runoff so that's good as well. It means I haven't over watered for such young plants. Now for lighting. The light was dropped last week from 29" to 27.5" but this morning I made some changes. I increased the light intensity up from 30% to 40%. I also raised the light to 28" from the little baby plants. This all increased the light intensity to a happy level. DLI: 22.7 mol/m²/d PAR: 350 ppfd Distance: 28" Finally we are looking at RH. The goal for this week is 60%. With the higher light power level the temp will increase. In turn, the humidity should hover around 60% to 62% with the temp closer to 78°. However, I would like to keep it at 77° for the whole veg stage. That's all for today. Grow System Environment: Temp: 73° RH: 60.3% VPD: 1.09 kPa March 2, 2024 Kind of running into an issue with feeding and watering. The containers aren't as moist as I would have hoped and I'm starting to think the nitrogen levels are still low. I think I'll increase the whole regimen by 50% and double the Cal/Mag. I'm also considering feeding 250 ml on off days. For this week, I'll use nutrient water and no plain water. I'll switch to every other watering, next week. Just until I can get them to catch up. They are both still very yellow. As for lighting, it's perfect. They are both reaching just right. Perfect praying. I will most likely increase the power level to 60% next week to match the middle/ late veg stage. I'd really like to be at 100% power by the middle of flowering. Other than the yellow leaves they look healthy as can be. Super broad leaves and strong stalks. I have fans running in the tent for circulation but nothing is directly hitting the plants. That will hopefully keep the stalk malleable for training which will start when they can reach the edge of the containers without folding the plant in half. I would like to see maybe 5" of standing stalk from the base. Much easier to water when the soil is free of too low hanging branches. This time around, I will do my best to keep these well defoliated. However, I don't want to go overboard. According to FastBuds, the buds are super dense and the branches need to be supported and spread out for air flow. They didn't say anything about leaf coverage. I'm guessing they will be super busy as it goes with most indicas. We shall see though. I may ask for help from the community for defoliation. I'm no good at it. At least not with autoflowers. I feel I'll have a lot more control with photoperiod, but I like the autoflowers. I have plenty of photoperiod seeds, just haven't had the space to grow them. Some day, I'll grow some. Probably a better idea to grow them sooner rather than later. Maybe I'll run them after my Sour Diesel/Blue Dream run. That will be after the competition I'm joining around 4/20. Those will be autos as well, so it should go pretty quickly. Update: I decided to water in 250 ml after all. I didn't water at the base though. I feel that is crucial in not overwatering the young plants. When I water the 500 ml tomorrow, I'll water the base. It seems to be working. Also, I am wondering if I should do a foliar spray with the nutrients just to help speed up the nitrogen intake. I'll have to research if I should or not. Grow System Environment: Temp: 74.1° RH: 60.9% VPD: 1.10 kPa March 3, 2024 So I realized that I need to compensate for the complete lack of nutrients in the soil and bumped the feed from 2 ml to 3 ml for all the nutrients except for Recharge. They got their 500 ml watering today. The bases were watered as well. A tiny bit of drooping, but they were just fed and the water needs to seep in. Plus the lower half of the containers are still fairly dry. So that should certainly spread down and even the soil out. They also haven't recovered from the nitrogen deficiency completely, but I'm sure that will come with time. They aren't slow, at least not that I can tell. They seem to be growing at a decent rate. They are both the same size and nearly identical. Even down to the nitrogen deficiency. What's interesting is the 2 Banana Purple Punch's don't seem to be as hungry as these two and they didn't show signs of it until just yesterday. But I'm pretty sure I caught it in time. Nothing to worry about... I hope. Lol... Anyway, I had to raise the light and inch. They are starting to stretch and I'd like to keep the DLI at 22.7 mol/m²/d for the rest of the week. But I may also mess with the light mid week and increase the power up to 50%. I'll probably have to raise the light, but then next week I can move right into 60% and increase the DLI. I'll decide over night. Might be a good idea. Getting the extra power down to the plants so they can grow like mad. The environment has been nearly perfect for the last couple days. The RH is spot on and hasn't really moved much at all. The temps have been comfortable at 77° during the day and 70° for lights out. I plan to keep it that way for the rest of this week. Next week, I'll decrease the temp a bit and drop the RH to 58%. Grow System Environment: Temp: 75.5° RH: 62.1% VPD: 1.11 kPa March 4, 2024 Lots to do today. Let's start with watering. Both plants got their 250 ml where I don't water the base of the plants. They are still pretty yellow, so I may increase the Grow base nutrient a bit. I really need the nitrogen deficiency to catch up now. This time is absolutely crucial for growth and I know they aren't growing at their fullest potential. Hopefully the boost from tomorrow's feeding will show improvement overnight. I may even do a light foliar mist as well. Something to get more nitrogen in the leaves. Maybe I'll do it with just the base grow nutrient. Reservoir instillation is coming next week. So I really need the containers to have a bit of runoff when I install them. I may have to do another 500 ml after tomorrow as well. The containers just aren't moist enough yet. Hopefully it will be fine by the end of the week. As I mentioned yesterday, I messed with the light today. I increased the power level up to 50% and dropped the light about an inch for a new intensity. DLI: 27.2 mol/m²/d PAR: 420 ppfd ( totally on purpose 🤣) Power: 50% Distance: 27" This is prep for next week as the light power will be increased to 60% and DLI increased. The goal is to get the light down to between 24" and 26" from the canopy. Grow System Environment: Temp: 76.0° RH: 62.0% VPD: 1.14 kPa March 5, 2024 Both plants are looking really nice. They are both still a bit light green though. I'm sure in time, they will both be growing like mad in no time. They are getting close to the edge of their containers. Right on que. In 2 days, they should be big enough to install the basins. Hopefully the roots will be close to the bottom where the wicks can work their magic. I watered in 500 ml today. I decided that I needed to increase the nutrients as we are coming to the end of week 2. So now I have all nutrients at 4 ml/gal except the Recharge of course. I may increase that for next week. I'm not sure that I've caught up to the nitrogen issue though. That's still a concern. I really want to do a foliar spray, but I don't know if Advanced Nutrients are foliar compatible. I had to move the light up a half inch today. It's not much, but I'm keeping the PAR at 420 ppfd until next week. The environment is spot on for the week so far. 78° and 60.5% humidity for the day so far. As for last night, temp at 70.7° and 62.5% humidity. Grow System Environment: Temp: 76.1° RH: 61.9% VPD: 1.14 kPa March 6, 2024 Both plants got watered 450 ml today. That's what was left in the jug, so that's what they got. I did end up watering the bases as well. I need moisture throughout the soil ASAP. The light green is still there. So I'm not sure they have enough nitrogen yet. I'll definitely be increasing the nutrition dose again at the start of next week. I didn't mess with the lighting today. I'll check it tomorrow and adjust as necessary. The environment is looking great as well. It's a bit warm out today, so the tent is hovering at 78°, but the RH is still at 61% wonderful! Grow System Environment: Temp: 75.9° RH: 61.7% VPD: 1.15 kPa March 7, 2024 Boh ladies got their watering today. I started with 250 ml and waited an hour to add the other 250 ml. I also increased the base grow nutrient to 8 ml from 4 ml as well as Recharge. That was increased from a quarter teaspoon to a half teaspoon. Both plants are still showing signs of nitrogen deficiency. So the increase in grow nutes should do it. I'll also be able to water in a liter pretty soon. It won't be tomorrow, but maybe the next watering after that. We shall see how things go. Lighting is fine still. I didn't move anything. The plants aren't tall enough for the intensity to increase. Either way, tomorrow I'll be increasing the power and intensity. They should love the change. Especially at this age. The environment is also spot on still. I'll be decreasing the humidity down to 58% tomorrow and will keep the temp the same around 77°. It should be perfect for week 3 of veg. I expect the flowering stage to start in a couple of weeks. Maybe a week and a half. At least that's what I should be expecting according to FastBuds. I'd also like to note that both plants have been rotating all on their own. It's intriguing how they are doing that. I'll have to start rotating in a couple weeks when they get bigger. Unless I have to run a net, then no rotation obviously. Still super interesting. Grow System Environment: Temp: 75.5° RH: 61.6° VPD: 1.13 kPa

amazing growth this week from all 3 plants. The peanut butter cookies is recovering from the transplant. Both the auto cheese and auto cinderella jack have both started to show signs of flowering and have bushed out incredibly well. The pbc has had its first top done and has started growing 2 extra nodes. 07/08/2020 - training has been done on all the autos. They have recovered extremely well and seem to not be slowing down. Finally starting to see the type of flowers I have been striving for. After a semi unsuccessful first grow, this has been a huge relief. Both autos are now showing signs of going into flower so I will try to stop LST unless any unruly branches form. The peanut butter cookies has now started to fully recover from the transplant and topping. Will now allow this to flourish and grow as big as it wants as both autos should be done before its too big (hopefully)

** Edición semana - se ha aportado al sistema 14 litros de agua con las cantidades discriminadas en función del número de litros considerado. Al sistema ya se ha empezado a introducir el Canna Zym y la consideración para el agua a 14 litros, se ha echo para que el día 17/08, se empiece la nutrición de floración y el cambio de ciclo lumínico a 12/12. Las próximas dos semanas corresponderán a un total de 5 semanas de vegetativo y por las tasas de crecimiento, seguramente en dos semanas tendremos la correspondencia a la dimensión final en altura del cultivar. (Mi cuenta a la altura del grow la hago, doblando la dimensión del grow cuando se produce el cambio de ciclo de luces. Así si a un vegetativo de 30 CMS cuando se produce el cambio a 12/12, representará que al final de floración la altura final estará siempre algo más del doble. O sea que si en dos semanas el grow esté sobre los 30/35 cma, al final de floración como máximo tendremos un grow sobre los 70 cms. Los grows siguen presentando un maravilloso desarrollo y la cepa fast afgana de Sweet Seeds se ha revelado un acierto magnífico para las condiciones de elevada temperatura y baja humedad que llevamos. Semana 1 1/2 - casi he cortado algo com tres días en total de la presente semana de desarrollo vegetativo y si miráis la entrada del diario anterior a esta, podrá resultar increíble lo cuanto se ha disparado el crecimiento de las "Afghanis" Fast de Sweet Seeds. Un acierto en casi toda la linea...líneas de fenotipo cara a la familia de genes del Hindu Kush. Plantas que reaccionan maravillosamente al calor y ya os había dicho que con una constancia de temperaturas que en luces está con más de 30ºC y que incluso a oscuras, sobre los 26,27ºC y donde la HR se.encuentra siempre entre máximos de 50% y mínimos abajo de 40%, y justo por su "pasado" de las montañas norte de la raya de Afghanistan/Pakistán, es muy claro que la genetica está lista para el calor...o también a frío, en otras cepas de las cuales destacó lo de Mazar-i-Shariff. Pues hoy la entrada de diario con video (en inglés) y con un nuevo set de fotos pone clara la cosa. Las plántulas pasada de jiffy al sustrato actual sobre el día 20 de julio, hoy 29 de julio - ocho días después, son muy reveladoras de lo que son las virtudes de asociar una de las más sencillas formas de hidroponia (pasiva o de APU, o sea de acción de gravedad) y que permite sin carencia ó exceso que la irrigación por Smart Mat (una forma especial de tejido, que toma la solución de agua y nutrientes desde un tablero/maceta de 10 litros y quedándose además otros 10 litros de solución en una cuba que irá vertiendo hacia el tablero por gravedad según la velocidad de absorción del sistema radicular de las plantas (o sea con gravedad se ponen a circular 20 litros en total del sistema y sobre el preparo de estos 20 litros que son la base para el calculo de PH y EC que los distintos momentos del cultivar,.necesitaran). Lo más sorprendente pasa por la siguiente análisis: cantidad de agua necesaria y cantidad utilizada, ahorro de nutrientes y cálculo mucho más efectivo en el control de cuestiones que cuando comparadas, por ejemplo, cuando hacemos riego por ejemplo, al echar 1.5 L con nutrientes y regarla cada dia y que conlleva desde temprano momento de desarrollo a aportar más agua y nutrientes que los necesarios y que al final, acostumbran a ser demasiado,.pues los cultivars se acostumbraran a una filosofía de "exceso" y con ello en regla, los flush finales muchas veces tienen que ser muy agresivos de modo a romper los cristales de nutrientes que se formam por exceso de sales en el sistema. Ya había tenido contacto con cultivars en coco, pero el cultivo en este medio cuando expuesto a las condiciones en que se hace uso racional de la introducción de agua y nutrientes en el sistema, se está revelando casi espectacular, el modo como dia pós dia, el crecimiento de las plantas sea un "espejo" del equilibrio de racionamiento de agua y nutrientes. Por ejemplo, comparar la anterior entrada antes de esta y ver lo que la estructura de tallo y hojas, su inserción y los cortos espacios internudos, es muy revelador de la principal virtud de los cultivos en coco y hidropónicos por gravedad. Algunos amigos con mayor experiencia, me habían referido que el crecimiento en vegetativo es simplemente, explosivo y lo que nos es enseñado en tan solo cuatro/cinco dias de vegetativo, pondrá el listón de calidad en esta temporada, muy por arriba. Según los entendidos, este crecimiento explosivo en vegetativo, ocurre por la manera proporcionada como el sistema de raíces que se encuentra junto al Smart Mat, termina siendo la única area mojada del medio de crecimiento Si comparáis con algunos de otros diarios que aquí presento y donde cultive en suelo, queda muy claro que tan solo en regla sobre la quinta a sexta semana se dá un estirón cualitativo y cuantitativo de los cultivars. En regla y si pensamos el riego normal en suelo y más en verano, lo primero serían las macetas que para suelo serían mayores que las padrones de hidroponia de 11 Litros. 11 litros en macetas de hidroponia corresponden a 23 litros en suelo regular. Después con temperaturas en la linea de las que estamos pasando, corresponderían a riegos de 2 Litros diarios de agua con nutrientes y con la temperatura y la adicción de agua necesarias, para suelo, en estas fechas, el estrés de temperatura y sobre todo el hídrico (por la cantidad de agua aportado) pasarían factura en el crecimiento. A contrário de otras temporadas (de suelo y riego diario), no tenemos, en primer lugar, áreas de suelo en la maceta que se sobrecargan de agua cuando aún no tiene materia radicular. Una de las señales que los grows en suelo y riego directo presentan en verano, suele ser las hojas curvadas hacia bajo y que el set primario de hojas, ya se habría puesto amarillento. Después uno de los sales más prófugo en bloquear otros sales por su exceso en el sistema, es el nitrógeno. Lo que los riegos diretos en verano crean, pasa por cuando saturan áreas de suelo que aún no tienen raíces, el nitrógeno tiende a quedarse fijado en sales en esas áreas y después si bien habrá muchas veces una cantidad muy larga de nitrógeno, al existir ese exceso, más tarde habrá influencia negativa en otros sales y sobretodo microelementos, que no se agregaran de la mejor manera al cultivar. Mucha gente no acostumbra a reflexionar sobre la forma como se hace la nutrición de raíces a través del suelo y si hay factores reductores en la integración de sales cuando más necesarios se convierten, eso pasa por ejemplo, por no haber conocimiento que por ejemplo excesos de nitrógeno pueden impedir que Fósforo o Magnésio o elementos como Boro, Hierro, Manganeso o Zinc, se integren al cultivar cuando más necesarios se hacen. En regla, los iniciados no entienden que un "overfert" de nitrógeno, que suele ocurrir más a común que se imagina (esa idea que se está haciendo la nutrición correcta cuando por ejemplo, el iniciado echa un vistazo a su "plantita" y la ve de un verde muy fuerte y lujuriante. En regla la gran mayoría de sobre fertilización ocurre con el aporte de agua. Un iniciado no será muy preocupado con el PH de su agua y con ello, también le dará poca importancia al EC y os dejo un poco esta idea " no es lo mismo preparar todos los días, soluciones de nutrición en base al preparo de 1,5 litro de solución (en base a una botella de agua de las normales) que por ejemplo preparar por ejemplo un botellón de 6 o 7 litros y usar ese botellón para riegos diarios sucesivos. Aún con medidas es muy distinto, que como en el sistema de hidroponia por gravedad que tengo a uso, pues preparó 20 litros de solución que pondré en una cuba, de esta cuba por una manguera con un sistema APU -bloqueo por gravedad- se llenará el tablero/cuba con cerca de 10 litros y en estos 10 litros estarán sumergidas las tiras Smart Mat, que al llenarse hasta el tope conducen el riego solamente en el área donde ya se encuentran formados los sistemas radiculares de la planta. O sea que en el sistema entrará justo el agua y nutriente necesario a lo que las raíces absorben....mientras que cuando haces riego directo sobre suelo, lo normal es que existan una área en proporción mucho mayor donde se satura el medio con agua y nutriente. Os explicaba que para lo que se puede controlar en PH y EC, hay diferencias muy significativas entre el preparo de 1,5 litros de solución para un día; que un botellón de 6/7 litros para riego a lo largo de 5 o más días ó que el preparo para mi sistema de hidroponia con 20 litros de solución que serán empleados tan solo por la estructura radicular que los absorbe paulatinamente. A quien en verano, perante el dilema del riego al ver incluso indoor que el suelo se seca rápidamente por la temperatura alta y baja humedad y que con eso puede en una maceta para suelo con 23 litros, llegar a hacer riego al menos dos veces al día con un total de 3/4 litros de agua y donde parte de esa agua con solución de sales será vertido en el suelo, pero en áreas del suelo donde no hay raíces...casi seguro, lo que estamos mirando con estos riegos es que tendremos seguro hojas de un verde muy bello y sin dar importancia a que las hojas se pondrán como gruesas y enrolladas hacia bajo y por el verde "bonito" no entender que la sobre fertilización ya esta en plena marcha y que más tarde en floración, por la presencia excesiva de cantidad de nitrógeno, por ejemplo lo que en floración ocurrirá, será que cuando necesitemos sobradamente de Fósforo y Magnésio, para las funciones de floración, engorda y evolución de terpenos y resinas, incluso para el "rippen", lo que suele pasar hace la alegría de los fabricantes de nutrientes, que se llenan de líneas de incluso 25 productos destinados en parte "a corregir las incorrecciones de formulación con que desarrollamos nuestros productos iniciales y a que decimos a nuestros clientes con menos experiencia, que debemos poner más que la cuenta, para que después necesitemos de otros productos en exceso, para equilibrar autênticas bombas químicas - ya sean biológicas o minerales-. Pues y sin alongar más el raciocinio, y por las evidencias y más por lo empírico de la cosa, lo que veo al menos para el periodo de verano y con la conjugación de los siguientes factores :FACTOR 1: semilla F1 Fast con genética Hindu Kush tanto por padre como madre y que guardan plantas que son por antonomasia, resistentes perfectas a las condiciones de mucho calor y poca humedad + FACTOR 2: sistema de hidroponia pasiva por gravedad, cuatro macetas de 11 Litros y responsable por una forma de riego óptima y en la cual la agua con la solución integra agua a partir de tejido Smart Mat y de aquí al sistema radicular que se desarrolla en el contacto del Smart Mat con el medio de cultura + FACTOR 3: medio de cultura formado por: Coco peat/powder con trichodermas naturales -bloque Ugro Basic 70 litros (75%) - Perlite fina (20%) + Bolas Arcilla Expandida Europebbles Plagron (5%) . A las áreas de colocación de las semillas germinadas en jiffy peat, se aporta como medio de refuerzo de protección mycorrizas Kraken - Glomus iranicus sob. + Tricofor 50 (Trichoderma harzanium) + FACTOR 4 - linea de nutrición CANNA Coco. Los cuatros factores son la base y eje de lo que de mejor tiene, en mi opinión, el sistema Quadgrow. Como hidroponia sencilla, creo que es muy buena cara a condiciones de verano, pues permiten que los riegos ocurran de modo muy regular. Habrá dudas con condiciones de invierno, pero en invierno a lo mejor habrá que contrarestar la cantidad de solución preparada y en vez a los 20 litros para una media de 12/14 días a lo mejor, será más interesante hacer el preparo de cubas de no más de 12 litros que podrán en máximo prorrogarse por un máximo de 11 dias. Para ejemplo, queda la enorme dimensión de este comentario y algunos análisis sobre las cuestiones técnicas del grow en hidroponia. Si todo lo técnico es importante, darle a la fé en el buen Dios Jah, para que todo pueda ocurrir en paz, para que los grows se hagan sin contratiempos y para que las miradas y habladurías de vecinos nunca acarreen problemas y eso siempre, por qué la más bella planta del universo, no es para generar una ganancia mayor que le de los amigos disfrutando de buenas películas, buena musica, buena compañía y en eso la mayor virtud de la cannabis como elemento de desarrollo del ser humano hace su hermano humano.
