Moved some small clones after sitting in an aeroponic cloner for 2 weeks. We waited until they had 3 <--> 4 inch roots before transplanting them into the 6 site system. This is our first time growing with a hydroponic sysyem and first time indoors also. Running 4 weaker clones in fox farm's ocean floor blend to see the difference in growth rate between the 2 mediums.

______________ An interim update: ______________ The pre-bloom has started. The plant is preparing for its last growth spurt. The growth in the last days is therefore substantial. For the time being no real problems. Apart from the additives that I provide, no additional nutrients have been added. A little too much N, because of this there is a little bit of burned leaftips. But hopefully a bit of a push can not hurt too much;) a new update at the end of the week. _________________ End of week 4 update: _________________ The bloom has begun. The growth was very exuberant this week. 25 centimeters larger than at the beginning of the week. There are a lot of shoots with budsites. Have given some flowering nutrients for the first time, albeit a low dose. The problem with the burned leaf tips has also been solved. A little too much of N did not hurt the plant. The grow mix of plagron is perhaps a bit too 'powerful' for young plants. But no real negative consequences, so no problem. I gave the plant also a nice 'shower' today with iron spray. She seems to like it. On to the real first week of flowering

Such a beautiful canopy! These ladies are all flowers now. Working on fattening up their rows of colas. And I mean ROWS! Healthy and strong and looking sexy. Definitely attributes that keep me happy. So easy going.... I can't wait to find out how generous they will be. They got treated with Dr zhymes as a preventative. That will basically wrap up their treatments ...possibly once more with lost coast. Upped the pk intake as they are blooming strong now. Gotta keep those engines well fuelled. Response was stellar. Happy happy happy ladies. Until next update. Happy growing and stay lit fam.

Really hot. Using more water. About 2 gallons a day each pot. Watering daily. Summer peak hits in the next month, then comes the wind down to the season...from September to Croptober. I don't see as much stretching as I see buds coming in right now, which is really exciting. Wind: I usually experience strong winds for the end of August and start of September. This means that I am taking the canopy down and letting the sun hit the plants with all its force for the remainder of the season. More water means fatter nugs. Nutrients: Day 105 - 21 August 2024 - Added 1 cup Bud Candy and 1/2 cup Overdrive from AN, then added 2 gallons of water in a large watering can. I let that sit for 2-3 hours, then I add it equally to the four pots. I'm alternating this and kelp meal biweekly from Down to Earth (every 2 weeks). This recipe is gentle and it works for me. Thank you to all following the grow. Straight up... each plant looks a little different - my guess it's because of all the crosses behind the genetics. Basically looks a little Malawi, a little tropicanny, a little cookie, and sour orangey for sure. I don't care for a stable line where all the plants look homogenous (basically the same, I may have messed up the description) - I just want something that will have a good end product and these plants all look fine to me. Now I just have to be vigilant so that the caterpillars don't destroy all the flowers. It's a bit nerve wrecking, but I'm committed to not using pesticides or insecticides - organic or not. I'm also considering washing the herb at harvest--that's got me a little nervous also because it gets really humid around harvest time, but all the testimonials and videos I've researched all seem to agree that it does not affect the end quality in terms of effect since THC is basically water resistant, not water soluble or something--i'm thinking water hash in my head to comprehend the science a little better. That's it. Just a few more weeks to go. About 8.

Day 71 - I watered her with nutrients, PH was at 5.3. Plant looks very healthy. I think i need to get some stucks to support stem. Day 72 - Checked in the morning properly, the plants looks fine checked for hermies couldn't see anything. Day 73 - I checked her today again nothing that can ruin the whole crop. She was watered with nutrients today at PH 5.9. I got new lights today spider farmer sf2000, this looks amazing inside there. We have also done a bit of light Defoliating so the buds have more nutrients. Day 74 - The plant is fine but the temperature is very high after getting new lights its on 34°c I've order a new fan so i can have inlet and outlet to try cool it down. Day 75 - The plant looks a bit sore thats because i should have watered her earlier. I've given the plant 5.5PH water with nutrients. Day 76 - So once again i didn't take a picture today.  I was very busy and didn't have time. I checked the plants as soon as i woke up and they looked well and healthy. Day 77 - Plants looks well would like it o look like its gonna give me a half decent yield but i don't know let's see how it goes. I also watered her today with nutrients and the water Ph was at 5.5.

Have been overfeeding these little lady's. Giving them some ph adjusted tap water to flush any excess nutes out of their systems. You can see some unusual growth at the newer most leaves. (Not the typical 5 tipped leaf like you should be seeing.) From what I understand this is a sign of too much nitrogen in my plants. Other than that these girls are holding up well. And I'll be cloning some of the strongest phenotype for a friend soon. 😉🌿

Day 65, 14th of November 2020: Amazing week.... RQS Wedding Gelato does not strech a lot and pistils coming out nicely.... Original Sensible Seeds has amazing gentics they are so strechy except Black Ghost OG, rest of them crazyyyyyyy..... I also broke two of the sides from Gelato Original Sensible Seeds but fixed with tape and now all good lol 🤣🤣🤣 Pre flowers out and I really hope they stop growing lol. I also noticed that the Original Sensible Seeds strains have nice purple colours of the fan leave's stem. All the same fertilization happens every 2nd day with the mix above and ratio. One more thing: I set the lamp 15 minutes shorter to switch off earlier so they receive 11:45 of darkness. I would like to imitate the nature when longer nights come with time till the 4th week (when they will receive 13 hours darkness a day 15 minutes minus 4 times = 1hour) so every week 15 min longer darkness for 4 weeks and then back to 12/12 to have bigger buds from the 4th week....

An important event marked this week: plants were indeed heavily defoliated. This was possible also due to their strong (and positive) reaction to the tea (Organic Compost Tea by Soil With Attitude) received last week. All plants are literally exploding with life. 💪

Esta cosecha fue muy buena con excelentes resultados de flores muy compactas y demasiado resinosas , la genética en sí es muy resinosa con olor muy característico , con sabores terrosos muy marcados .

This week things have stabilised a bit, my bigger humidifier came on D26, so hopefully that will help slow transpiration a little! Not really much to report, plants are growing okay, one of them is still struggling a bit, they’ve all been topped for the second time. As I have one plant per 4ft sq, I think I might only mainline to 4 mains, haven’t decided yet! Have bought a Torus Hydro PH balancer, will see if that helps with the PH swings going forward 🧐 Happy growing guys!

Pretty happy with her setup now shes reached the edges of pot. I plan to just try keep her tied down while the middle catches up. I'll let her get some vertical growth after that and flip when im happy shes good to go. She is now just on full feed Lucas forula (GHE Micro/Bloom) with some calmag. Took all her nutes well showing no signs of deficiencies and caused no grief whatsoever.

Last week I realized that topping off the rez with full strength nutrient water had upped my ppms to 2000, and Ph to almost 7 I mixed a fresh batch of 10ml and saw ppms in the 1700 range, so I watered it down to 1200, 8 ml/gal is just an estimate this week unfortunately. I added 2.5 ml/gal big bud day 1 week 3 afternoon, Ppms should coming in at 1300 I finally got an accurate height measurement, and given the plant distance decided to turn the light power down to 60%, which should be around 120-130 watts, which is plenty for a 2x2 Did a water change week 3 day 1, used a transfer pump and it was fairly easy, just took a while More pistils are starting to show up now I've decided to start measuring ppm/ph as both creeped up too high last week. I cant vouch for how well ph perfect nutes work when changed weekly as directed, but they cant go 2 weeks without being measured and adjusted, and at full strength, Im sure they would burn plants. Day 2: ppms held steady at 1350 overnight, ph is at 5.8-5.9 New growth was showing very early signs of light burn, (pale leaf tips up top, tips not pointing down) so I turned light to 50% power, mounted it straight to my top tent supports, and bent the tops that showed signs of stress. Day 3: Ppm's still holding steady as water level goes down, so this may be the sweet spot for now. Bud sites are stacking now Selectively defoliated to get light deeper into the canopy

I lollipop them today!!!!!😁😁😁😁😁😁 It's their 37 day and they just started getting into Flower and getting taller so I Lollipoped them and did a little bit of defoliation so the light will get to the bit lower buds sites since I did some LST in a bit later stage which went incredible. But it meant some buds sites are big but still a bit lower in comparison so I didn't take them out of course. And i did some SCroG but took it out the day before the lollipop and we'll see if the girls are fine I will put it back in 2 days or so depending on the plant growth

Buenas a todos!! Ya las he pasado al armario donde estarán hasta la cosecha, en este armario hay más espacio y más w de luz, en este hay 300w, lo hago así para ahorrar energía, pues es ahora a partir de la 4º semana de floración cuando va necesitando más lúmenes para engordar los cogollos. Más tarde cuando finalice la 5º semana también pongo una luz UV para que generen más resina. Como veis ahora están más separadas, por lo que correra mejor el aire entre ellas, pero para asegurarme de que no aparezcan hongos lo mejor es prevenir y usar Leaf Coat pulverizando vuestras plantas desde que lo uso no he visto ni bichos ni hongos. Voy aumentando La EC poco a poco, el PH lo mantengo a 6.3 pero lo subiré a 6.5 a lo largo de esta semana, voy alternando un riego con nutrientes, uno con agua solo a 0.45EC Plantas con una buena forma, buenisima distancia internodal, el único fallo es que el tallo es débil, por lo que tendré que poner tutores en el proximo riego aprovechando que está blando el sustrato, ya mismo se empiezan a ver los cogollos!! Saludos!!😃
