All looking healthy the one strawb banana that didn’t germ ended up sprouting out the soil but I think the shrooms claimed the soil first my bad fast buds smashing it as usual 🤟giving them 24hrs of darkness trying to harden them off for outdoor end of this week hopefully waiting on last bits to arrive for the soil

Am freitag wird gesiebt und ich halte euch auf dem laufenden Geruch und wirkung vom hash ist ganz wild, positiv ausgedrückt ist es klar und deutlich erdbeer banane vom geschmack und geruch, knallhart ehrlich ist es aber eher eine grüne erdbeere mit bananenschale😅

Took some clones, Transplanted into 25 gallon pots, Flipping to flower

What's in the soil? What's not in the soil would be an easier question to answer. 16-18 DLI @ the minute. +++ as she grows. Probably not recommended, but to get to where it needs to be, I need to start now. Vegetative @1400ppm 0.8–1.2 kPa 80–86°F (26.7–30°C) 65–75%, LST Day 10, Fim'd Day 11 CEC (Cation Exchange Capacity): This is a measure of a soil's ability to hold and exchange positively charged nutrients, like calcium, magnesium, and potassium. Soils with high CEC (more clay and organic matter) have more negative charges that attract and hold these essential nutrients, preventing them from leaching away. Biochar is highly efficient at increasing cation exchange capacity (CEC) compared to many other amendments. Biochar's high CEC potential stems from its negatively charged functional groups, and studies show it can increase CEC by over 90%. Amendments like compost also increase CEC but are often more prone to rapid biodegradation, which can make biochar's effect more long-lasting. biochar acts as a long-lasting Cation Exchange Capacity (CEC) enhancer because its porous, carbon-rich structure provides sites for nutrients to bind to, effectively improving nutrient retention in soil without relying on the short-term benefits of fresh organic matter like compost or manure. Biochar's stability means these benefits last much longer than those from traditional organic amendments, making it a sustainable way to improve soil fertility, water retention, and structure over time. Needs to be charged first, similar to Coco, or it will immobilize cations, but at a much higher ratio. a high cation exchange capacity (CEC) results in a high buffer protection, meaning the soil can better resist changes in pH and nutrient availability. This is because a high CEC soil has more negatively charged sites to hold onto essential positively charged nutrients, like calcium and magnesium, and to buffer against acid ions, such as hydrogen. EC (Electrical Conductivity): This measures the amount of soluble salts in the soil. High EC levels indicate a high concentration of dissolved salts and can be a sign of potential salinity issues that can harm plants. The stored cations associated with a medium's cation exchange capacity (CEC) do not directly contribute to a real-time electrical conductivity (EC) reading. A real-time EC measurement reflects only the concentration of free, dissolved salt ions in the water solution within the medium. 98% of a plants nutrients comes directly from the water solution. 2% come directly from soil particles. CEC is a mediums storage capacity for cations. These stored cations do not contribute to a mediums EC directly. Electrical Conductivity (EC) does not measure salt ions adsorbed (stored) onto a Cation Exchange Capacity (CEC) site, as EC measures the conductivity of ions in solution within a soil or water sample, not those held on soil particles. A medium releases stored cations to water by ion exchange, where a new, more desirable ion from the water solution temporarily displaces the stored cation from the medium's surface, a process also seen in plants absorbing nutrients via mass flow. For example, in water softeners, sodium ions are released from resin beads to bond with the medium's surface, displacing calcium and magnesium ions which then enter the water. This same principle applies when plants take up nutrients from the soil solution: the cations are released from the soil particles into the water in response to a concentration equilibrium, and then moved to the root surface via mass flow. An example of ion exchange within the context of Cation Exchange Capacity (CEC) is a soil particle with a negative charge attracting and holding positively charged nutrient ions, like potassium (K+) or calcium (Ca2+), and then exchanging them for other positive ions present in the soil solution. For instance, a negatively charged clay particle in soil can hold a K+ ion and later release it to a plant's roots when a different cation, such as calcium (Ca2+), is abundant and replaces the potassium. This process of holding and swapping positively charged ions is fundamental to soil fertility, as it provides plants with essential nutrients. Negative charges on soil particles: Soil particles, particularly clay and organic matter, have negatively charged surfaces due to their chemical structure. Attraction of cations: These negative charges attract and hold positively charged ions, or cations, such as: Potassium (K+) Calcium (Ca2+) Magnesium (Mg2+) Sodium (Na+) Ammonium (NH4+) Plant roots excrete hydrogen ions (H+) through the action of proton pumps embedded in the root cell membranes, which use ATP (energy) to actively transport H+ ions from inside the root cell into the surrounding soil. This process lowers the pH of the soil, which helps to make certain mineral nutrients, such as iron, more available for uptake by the plant. Mechanism of H+ Excretion Proton Pumps: Root cells contain specialized proteins called proton pumps (H+-ATPases) in their cell membranes. Active Transport: These proton pumps use energy from ATP to actively move H+ ions from the cytoplasm of the root cell into the soil, against their concentration gradient. Role in pH Regulation: This active excretion of H+ is a major way plants regulate their internal cytoplasmic pH. Nutrient Availability: The resulting decrease in soil pH makes certain essential mineral nutrients, like iron, more soluble and available for the root cells to absorb. Ion Exchange: The H+ ions also displace positively charged mineral cations from the soil particles, making them available for uptake. Iron Uptake: In response to iron deficiency stress, plants enhance H+ excretion and reductant release to lower the pH and convert Fe3+ to the more available form Fe2+. The altered pH can influence the activity and composition of beneficial microbes in the soil. The H+ gradient created by the proton pumps can also be used for other vital cell functions, such as ATP synthesis and the transport of other solutes. The hydrogen ions (H+) excreted during photosynthesis come from the splitting of water molecules. This splitting, called photolysis, occurs in Photosystem II to replace the electrons used in the light-dependent reactions. The released hydrogen ions are then pumped into the thylakoid lumen, creating a proton gradient that drives ATP synthesis. Plants release hydrogen ions (H+) from their roots into the soil, a process that occurs in conjunction with nutrient uptake and photosynthesis. These H+ ions compete with mineral cations for the negatively charged sites on soil particles, a phenomenon known as cation exchange. By displacing beneficial mineral cations, the excreted H+ ions make these nutrients available for the plant to absorb, which can also lower the soil pH and indirectly affect its Cation Exchange Capacity (CEC) by altering the pool of exchangeable cations in the soil solution. Plants use proton (H+) exudation, driven by the H+-ATPase enzyme, to release H+ ions into the soil, creating a more acidic rhizosphere, which enhances nutrient availability and influences nutrient cycling processes. This acidification mobilizes insoluble nutrients like iron (Fe) by breaking them down, while also facilitating the activity of beneficial microbes involved in the nutrient cycle. Therefore, H+ exudation is a critical plant strategy for nutrient acquisition and management, allowing plants to improve their access to essential elements from the soil. A lack of water splitting during photosynthesis can affect iron uptake because the resulting energy imbalance disrupts the plant's ability to produce ATP and NADPH, which are crucial for overall photosynthetic energy conversion and can trigger a deficiency in iron homeostasis pathways. While photosynthesis uses hydrogen ions produced from water splitting for the Calvin cycle, not to create a hydrogen gas deficiency, the overall process is sensitive to nutrient availability, and iron is essential for chloroplast function. In photosynthesis, water is split to provide electrons to replace those lost in Photosystem II, which is triggered by light absorption. These electrons then travel along a transport chain to generate ATP (energy currency) and NADPH (reducing power). Carbon Fixation: The generated ATP and NADPH are then used to convert carbon dioxide into carbohydrates in the Calvin cycle. Impaired water splitting (via water in or out) breaks the chain reaction of photosynthesis. This leads to an imbalance in ATP and NADPH levels, which disrupts the Calvin cycle and overall energy production in the plant. Plants require a sufficient supply of essential mineral elements like iron for photosynthesis. Iron is vital for chlorophyll formation and plays a crucial role in electron transport within the chloroplasts. The complex relationship between nutrient status and photosynthesis is evident when iron deficiency can be reverted by depleting other micronutrients like manganese. This highlights how nutrient homeostasis influences photosynthetic function. A lack of adequate energy and reducing power from photosynthesis, which is directly linked to water splitting, can trigger complex adaptive responses in the plant's iron uptake and distribution systems. Plants possess receptors called transceptors that can directly detect specific nutrient concentrations in the soil or within the plant's tissues. These receptors trigger signaling pathways, sometimes involving calcium influx or changes in protein complex activity, that then influence nutrient uptake by the roots. Plants use this information to make long-term adjustments, such as Increasing root biomass to explore more soil for nutrients. Modifying metabolic pathways to make better use of available resources. Adjusting the rate of nutrient transport into the roots. That's why I keep a high EC. Abundance resonates Abundance.

Welcome to week 9! Starting off with a nice photoshoot Watered 3 plants on 08/04 with 1.5L 5.8 PH 1.7 EC. 2nd time for LCC "Cara" that she has to wait a day longer for watering. Oh well! Watered LCC "Cara" on 09/04, 1.5L 5.7 PH 1.8 EC No Watering on 10/04, but some nice colorful photos! Watered all on 13/04, 1.5L, 5.7 PH , 1.7 EC. Nutes all around the same, 5ml/L Plagron Terra Bloom and 1ml/L green sensation. one BPP is showing awesome purpling, very deep and saturated, and one LCC really got that Fall color scheme going now. Very happy with how its going! Trichomes are still mostly clear/cloudy. Judging by my last batch of BPPs, i'd give them anywhere from between 1-3 weeks. dont know how ill manage harvest yet, either all at once, when some are more amber and some are still a tad early, or individually. I got finals coming up so probably depending on how i find the time for it.

Info: Unfortunately, I had to find out that my account is used for fake pages in social media. I am only active here on growdiaries.

Here comes the first Preflower Update

This week was good, trying to give transiting plant as much light expo. as possible......also removed most of the smaller bud site........the one that is in full flower mood is super healthy n green gonna start packing size from next week on a (k) diet

📆 Week 12, 22-28 July 2024 22-28 July - Observed and let the plant grow. 📑 Pablo continues to swell in bud growth. Trichome and resins continue to develop. She still has a few more weeks to go with no signs of slowing down yet. 🍶 24, 28 July nutrient solution changed 🍽️ 24, 28 July feeding schedule updated 💧 Using reverse osmosis water with EC/TDS at 0 🐉 Nutrient Solution EC 2.4 at 75 degree F 🔆 Light power at 80%, DLI 40 canopy coverage at 12hrs 😤 Using PYPABL, Air Pump, 400GPH That is it for this week. Thanks for the look, read and stopping by.

* ********* Week 11 - June 20 to 26, 2020 - Days 71 to 77 from germination *********** * It is the end of flush week and she went into darkness on Wednesday night, day 75, for two days. Saturday will be harvest day and start and the dry process👍 This week she continued to fill in and she also pushed out more frosty tricombs!! The fade happened this week more and she fed off of more of the nutrients within the plant.....perfect😃......would like a little more even but she was ready based on tricombs. Would like to have seen the lower leaves a little more yellow but its good. I am feeling very strongly that the big part of the pH issues this run was a change in feed water. I have always used bottled RO water for all my grows, except outdoors, but this grow I switched to tap water. Dechlorinated the water with air stone and gave it 24 hours min before using. Wanted to save some money and tired of lugging bottles downstairs a couple of times a week☹️ This is worked out nicely and a lot more convenient. However, the city must be putting some crap in the water that is causing issues in my media and raises the pH after the watering. Out of the tap it is 8.4pH and 275ppm. Since ppm were not too bad in my opinion I moved forward without filtering the water.......oops🤬🤬🤬 Out of options on what is causing the issue, I switched back to RO water late last week........all the girls are happier!!!! F......missed the cause for weeks. Always learning from this plant and my own mistakes to get better every run😉👍 Also wanted to add a little more stress to girl to help push out some increased resin. I drilled a 5/16” hole into the main stem to cause her stress. I did this rather than trying to break a branch and will see it goes this run. Sterilized a new bit in Alcohol and went for it. They went into darkness about a couple of hours later. Excited to see what happens when she comes out to get chopped😃😃 Not really a lot more to add this week as it was mainly looking at the tricombs and her buds. The pH will impact the harvest but she has been fun to grow and very resilient to pest and bug issues as well as grower curve balls. As always.......nice job Sweet Seeds....... SWS56 is very solid and I look forward to running her again one day. Beautiful little girl and makes me smile😃😃😃 Little more detail...... June 20/20 - Day 71 - Rezin and Liquid Weight @ 2ml/L = 285ppm and 4.0pH - 8L given to get a good flush....pH still running around 7.4 - Runoff in pots already were 7.9pH and 685ppm. - after 8L water runoff was 7.4pH and 360ppm. - she is 20” tall and 24” wide. - a number of clear tricombs but more becoming cloudy. June 21/20 - Day 72 - dry out day. - buds are firming up......squeezed a couple🧐 June 22/20 - Day 73 - Rezin @ 1ml/L = 120ppm and pH the water to 2.7!!!!!!!!! - Given 2L watering. - No runoff water and I am good with that as I want the low pH water to stay in the medium. - her frost levels are really coming out now.....was able to lower tent temps to 75 degrees and 51% humidity......its been raining a bit so damn humidity has been high. June 23/20 - Day 74 - 2L plain water feed - 80ppm and pH to 2.4!!!!!! - not excited about these crazy low pH numbers but doing what we can - her tops are getting more pointy now and ripening nicely - leaves continue to fade......she is close - checking tricombs, I think we are done and tomorrow will be her last day so that I can take down on Saturday. June 24/20 - Day 75 - 2L plain water feed - 80ppm and pH to 3.0 - Going into darkness tonight so this was her last bit of moisture. - drilled a hole into the stem.....was going to do a couple of holes but not trying this method before I decided to leave it with one hole. - into darkness tonight So we finish up the week with her in the dark. Next update will be the harvest!! Thanks very much for taking the time to review my diary!! Sorry for running behind often on this run.........everyone has had a busy life the last couple of months in the world and its been no different here...........a huge Kudos to all the Growmie‘s that are able to keep up with their diaries on daily basis on GrowDiaries.......its a commitment😃👍👍 Sweet Seeds girls are very solid genetics with great vigour and resilience.......this strain is no different........great job Sweet Seeds🙏

High Level From Eva Seeds 13 weeks of Veg completed 13th of Jan 2020 So last week was aproximately the Half Way mark for this Grow and Ive started to prepare for the Flowering stage by adding support lines (plant yo-yo's) to the Branches. Both plants are looking good and I fed them both a feed of some of the DR Greenthumbs "High tea" that I brewed up over the last 24 hours. At the month of this Month (Jan) I'll start to add the Dr Greenthumbs Bud & Bloom soil Booster that is part of the Full "Super Soil" Kit. I'm hoping for a Good haul off these two girls , especially plant 1 so I need to provide all the energy I can to the Girls during the Flowering stage. Thanks for stopping by and I'll be back next week. 👍

Tapering nutes off for the flush. Also added a small amount of Barley as a top dress to help her finish off.

daily defoild to keep the auto in the most opportune spot

Holy fucking shit. I upped the E.C. to around 1.9 and it seems she LOVES it. Since the change (from 1.2 to 1.8) she suddenly draws 5L of water a day and the buds are starting to form. I can clearly already see the typical "cali" US genetics on this plant and i'm very excited to see that develop! Pretty sure i could have achieved the same state with only 6 weeks of veg, but i had to veg her longer for some other plants. Im curious, what she will yield, if someone can guess, i would be happy Take care of yourself, this will be a banger grow!

Oh, Week 5 in the fabulous world of my green squad has been nothing short of a horticultural sitcom! I kicked off the festivities with a low-stress training (LST) session that would make any plant yoga instructor proud. Imagine me in my gardening yoga pants, coaching the lower branches like, "Stretch, my green warriors, stretch! We're aiming for a yoga retreat, not a sedentary plant spa!" I decided it was time for a botanical makeover – no more settling for an average, run-of-the-mill plant. Oh no, my friends, I was determined to turn my green buddy into the Beyoncé of the tent. The plant underwent a transformation that would put any Hollywood diva to shame, becoming a bushier superstar that covered more ground than a celebrity red carpet. I could almost hear the applause from the tiny plant leaves – a standing ovation for the botanical sensation. But why stop at just a physical transformation? In the spirit of keeping up appearances, I went full-on garden Marie Kondo. It was time to declutter! Any discolored leaves that didn't meet the high standards of my garden's fashion police got the boot. Who needs an unsightly leaf cramping the style of the green kingdom, right? It's all about maintaining that A-list garden aesthetic – the Vogue of the plant world. In the grand comedy of plant life, Week 5 has been a laugh-out-loud episode filled with beauty, drama, and a touch of horticultural glam. As I stand there, admiring my now Beyoncé-level plant, I can't help but feel like the director of a blockbuster comedy – green leaves fluttering in the wind, tiny plant divas striking poses, and the whole garden stage set for a laugh riot. Stay tuned for the next episode of "Greening Up with THCpapaTHCPAPA" – because when it comes to plants, it's all about the glam and greenery! 🌿💃✨

Big trees, fat ,hard frosty buds, fantastic smell, top genetics. What else u can wish 4? I like 🔥

Day 99. Garden is flying. Nothing else to mention now, you can easy spot - they bulk up ! Heavy feed in the morning, then 2 more cycles of feed/pure_water left till flush for Gorillas, all others at least a week behind. Hate to split waterings and feed, but even lazy person sometimes is forced to ... ;)) Happy growing ! Day 100. Disaster in Garden !!!! Had enough of RQS Royal Cookies. Two of them went Hermie. So current stats : 5 out 5 are mutated 2 out 5 currently Hermie 5 out of 5 overfed without any food even Because of that shitty genetics, had to make Control Garden. Even Cookie from CG which is in green house still grow mutated and leaves are on max healthy green side. Had no nutes for last 30 days, still haven't returned to normal ... So two girls chopped, hope they didn't pollinate all garden... In photos you can find bananas... Those air pots works really great, all space is used and roots are really nice. Just i think i will go to 30 liters next time. Have fabrics, but my doubts of those air pots are gone. Bad day for sure. 15 weeks, 50 pounds for seeds, 30 for soil, 50 for nutes. Thats my bill without electrics ..... #RQS is crap !!!!! James from them just asked where i bought the seeds, never had balls to replay back ... Ironic theirs girls has BALLS and it makes me angry ... Day 101. Damage is done, i see many seeds growing, it took me unprepared .... I dont sell weed, but to check every bud before grind is lame for me ... F@%k you RQS. Never again, despite having like 10 more theirs beans of 4 dif strains .... to the bin now !!!! Day 102. Girls are nice, but i see seeds forming and it makes me sad. Doubt it will be many updates till review. Happy Growing !!!!

Que pasa familia, este proyecto no va tan bien como el anterior pero aun así intentaré sacarlo adelante y lo mejor posible. Se efectuó el trasplante a macetas de 7 y de 15 litros , aumentamos el riego , y en nada abonaré con un producto rico en Nitrógeno, ya que el trasplante no les sentó del todo bien y la planta en si está chupando su Nitrógeno, por eso el principio de amarilleo en los bajos. Tener tiene solución vaya. Ahora para que no vaya a más entre riego y riego hay que estar atento para que no sufra excesos por qué sería sumar problemas. Ya empecé abonar con Advanced nutrients la gama básica del mono. Y poco más lo que veis quitando el problema del nitrógeno guay pero eso es dejadez así que ya sé que me tengo que poner las pilas , un abrazo y buenos humos familia 💨💨

Day 49 Flower Hey Growers. I did a flush last week to get my runoff closer to 1050. I’m not sure why this happens that I get tip burn doing FFW. Maybe I start ramping up flower nutes too much too quickly. I have tip burn on my Blue Dream too. I’ve gotta come up with a solution as it buggers everything up. Flushing and Dealing with tip burn instead of packing on size. This is a 10 wk strain so I’m not as concerned cuz there’s lots of time and I think I got ahead of it. The nugs are smaller, marble to golf ball sized but hard as a rock already. The smell is of over ripe lemon when it get that sweet and Hazey earthy woody characteristic. I’m going to feed 2 more weeks and try the Advanced Nutrient Overdrive that I have kicking around. Then flush heavy for 1 ish weeks and hopefully get a nice fade. The Vipar spectra XS2000 is doing a great job, it has me wondering if I could use it to flower a 4x4 of autos. Its super strong. My poor man’s light mover has the plants getting a ton of light every other day with a nice rest in between. There is no light burn or yellowing, a tiny bit of leaf edge curl that goes away during its rest day. I am very happy with this light and know it’ll blow up whatever I run in here next. Happy 420 & Happy Growing 🌱

da secret of why plants need ventilation is two things. one da air moves da plants cells allowing them to stretch. two da air helps maintain a plants electromagnetic charge.
