I am very happy with bloom. The plants are showing some amber trichomes very early. Some of it may be from bruising from me reaching over them?

Plant has shown slow but healthy growth since its arrival, LST continues and I've managed to keep the plant at the same height it was last week but now at a horizontal angle. I did up the nutes for one feed to a slightly under recommended dose but in the days following I noticed the plant looking a little 'droopy' and since she has been with me she hasnt been drinking very well so I opted to flush her for a feed, since then she has seemed very happy :) whilst drinking much better (possible nute lock was imminent). Now back down to half doseages with the exception of CalMg (to help after flush) but will be increasing them in the following days. As of next week I will be transferring her and another plant my partner is nurturing into single bucket DWC set ups. Fingers crossed I will see some hearty results for making the crossover to hydro.

Week 1 Day 1 - 8/12/2023 1st Water change Day! Such a special time it is when you remove the little bit of Nutes that you gave them as an appetizer and you give them their first real meal. Added 39 Gallons of Water to my system SILICA= .5mil/Gal = 19.5 = 20mil Root Drip = 1mil/Gal = 39mil Cal Mag= .25mil/Gal = 9.75 = 10mil FLoraMicro= 3.0mil/Gal = 114mil FloraGro = 2.0mil/Gal = 78mil FloraBloom = 2.0mil/Gal =78mil ORCA= .5mil/Gal = 19.5 = 20mil Week 1 Day 2 - 8/13/2023 Everything is looking good the roots are making thier way to the water and the new grow is looking nice and green. Week 1 Day 3- 8/14/2023 Everything is right on track, they are looking beautiful and in the praying postition all leaves happily lifting towards the light. Week 1 Day 4- 8/15/2023 Looking beautiful today and looked like she could use her first haircut.. gave her a TOP off. Roots are laying in the water everything is looking right on track.. Week 1 Day 5- 8/16/2023 walked in and the humidity was under 60.... ohh noooooo.. So I added 2 humidifiers to the tent and attached them to my InkBird controller which is set to 62. She had roots nicely in the water.. this grow is on!!! Week 1 Day 6- 8/17/2023 Humidity was a little low this morning, so I refilled the humidifiers. Other than that, the temp looks great, the PH looks great, the PPM looks good the plant is in the praying position and all damage from the little drowning seems to have been fixed. Happy Happy. Week 1 Day 7- 8/18/2023 Yay.. week 1 in the books, roots in the water growth has started first hair cut given and both side nodes are growing. Everything is looking good and on track.. A lot better than week one of the last grow when I had them drowning week 1. Really excited on how this grow is going to come out.

March 22, 2024 Day 36 This week we focus mostly on training. It's the last week of veg, or it should be, and they will need all the trainings they can get. So far it's perfectly on point for both plants. They are reaching well past the sides of the containers. They have super strong main trunks with side branches almost as thick. They are sure to hold up some super heavy buds. I'll continue to pull branches down and out for a couple more weeks. I may have to put a SCroG net in as well. I'll probably set it to 18" for when the real stretch starts. Until then, it's adjusting and readjusting the tie downs. I'll also be snipping off the massive leaves from the trunks this week. Just those though. There's no need for any others to be cut off yet. They will most likely need another trimming in a couple of weeks. I increased the light power as expected this week. The height stayed the same at 24" with a DLI of 42 mol/m²/d. That should be fine for the majority of the rest of the grow. I may have to put it to 100% when flowering begins. Tropicana Cookies has a slight bit of nitrogen toxicity. So for this week I dropped the nutrients down to 10 ml instead of 12 ml. Of course after I run some plain water with cal/mag. I'll be doing a half gallon for each plant. Anyway, 12 ml is just too much and I'd rather Tropicana C not get any toxicity. The environment is a bit cool today due to weather. It should warm back up when it gets above freezing out. Currently, the temp is hovering just below 75° and the humidity is around 57%. Not ideal, but in range. It was also really cold last night and the tent temp dropped to 66°. I gotta turn my heater up more I guess. Grow System Environment: Temp: 72.5° RH: 56.2% VPD: 1.17 kPa March 23, 2024 Both plants look fantastic now. I think the nitrogen toxicity on Tropicana Cookies is going away already. Honestly it shouldn't have been much of a toxicity in the first place, so I think we are fine now. Both ladies got the main stem fan leaves slipped today. I also removed the lowest node from Tropicana Cookies. They weren't promising in the first place. I may also remove them from Tropicana C. We will see. They will be needing water tomorrow I think. The moisture content of the soil is hanging around 53%. It's a bit high for this stage, so I'll let the plants catch up before refilling the reservoirs. Both plants also got some adjustments done. They haven't grown upward at all. But they have been spreading out really well. Perfectly level canopies and identical in almost every way. The only difference is my tie down placement. Slightly different, but the same basic structure. I also raised the light today to 26". The DLI was a bit high at 45 mol/m²/d where as it should be at 42. So the 26" lift brought it right where it needs to be. Not to mention the footprint is outstanding. So by the looks of things, I won't need to increase the power anymore. 24" at 90% power provides 45 mol/m²/d. Perfect for the flowering stage. Speaking of flowering, pre-flower is right around the corner. There's white hairs everywhere now. I'm just waiting for the bud sites to start forming and we are good to go. I'll continue training these ladies down through mid stretch or when I have them how I want them. A note: The side branches are pretty thick. I can assume the buds will also be big and thick and dense. I may need a trellis when they start to really stretch. That will come when I finish LST. The environment is looking pretty good today. It's hovering at 75° and climbing a bit. Hopefully it lands at 76° to 77°. The humidity is also really close, hanging out around 57%. Not a bad day. Grow System Environment: Temp: 72.6° RH: 57.0% VPD: 1.15 kPa March 24, 2024 What a nice day for the ladies. Both were massively trained with the canopy completely level. Lots of side branches and auxiliary branches coming gup. Some were tied down finally and the plants are growing right out of the containers. Looking great! They got a half gallon of 8 ml Cal/Mag today. That should reset the nutrients and I can start the 10 ml regimen. Both plants are basically identical with the training done the same to the same branches. They are both showing a nice bit of root structure on the bottoms of the containers. They are also damned close to pre-flower if not already started. I didn't have to move the light today after the training was done. Still at a perfect 42 mol/m²/d. I definitely don't expect to put the light at 100% power. I'm also very happy so far with the health of these plants. They are finally nice and dark. I'm definitely expecting 2 to 3 ft tall plants. If I continue to get this health and growth, I may have some 4 ft plants to deal with. Not complaining. The environment is pretty good regardless of the 20° f weather outside. It's hovering around 75° and a bit high at 58% humidity. No matter, it will adjust on its own by mid day. Nothing to worry about. Grow System Environment: Temp: 72.5° RH: 57.3% VPD: 1.14 kPa March 25, 2024 These two plants are seriously hard to tell apart in pictures. There are differences starting to show now that they are in pre-flower. Tropicana C is looking super nice with a perfectly level canopy. The stretch has started and she's showing it a lot more than Tropicana Cookies. The canopy on Tropicana Cookies is fairly uneven. There's auxiliary branches I pulled down and I'm waiting for them to readjust to my changes. I also had to pull down some of the top node branches. So the uneven canopy is mostly from me, trying to keep the plant within its own quadrant. Both plants have a lot of roots coming out of the bottom of the containers. A great sign that pre-flower has started. Even though one is uneven, both plants are at the final stages of the structure I created for each of them. Tropicana C has the most uniform tops so far and Tropicana Cookies is just as robust if not a bit more so. Hence the extra training. As said before, when the plants get to 18", I'll consider the trellis. I have a feeling I'll have to use it. I'm also going to have to defoliate again soon. Just the lower fan leaves close to the soil. And some of the larger top leaves that cover the bud sites. I've also got overlapping leaves that are causing condensation. Some of them I can move, and some I can't. I'll keep an eye and if need be, I'll take those off as well. I'll also increase the airflow to help. I have two oscillating fans in there so it shouldn't be an issue at all. I haven't moved the light yet because the plants haven't grown tall enough. The DLI is around 43 mol/m²/d. When flowering starts next week, I'll increase the DLI to 45 mol/m²/d. I may wait another week. We shall see how things look for the next few days. I may have to raise the light again to get that slight praying going on. I'll update if I decide to do that today. The environment is still a bit off. The temp is down to 73° and the humidity is still high around 59%. I'll most likely put my small dehumidifier in the tent to help with both heat and humidity. To be continued... I also rotated the plants around today. So now Tropicana Cookies is in the rear quadrant with Tropicana C back in front. Grow System Environment: Temp: 71.4° RH: 57.3% VPD: 1.10 kPa March 26, 2024 A bit of to do today. Honestly the next few weeks will be a bit of a to do. Training, defoliation, training again. Today we tied down the 2 longest top branches and made a couple adjustments to Tropicana Cookies. She looks great, if not a bit messy. It's fine though, it will grow to a nice flat canopy in the weeks to come. Tropicana C is actually the bigger plant in the tent. About an inch taller than the rest, with a completely flat canopy. I want to tie the branches back down to level it with the rest of the canopy, but I have concerns with breaking and space. I should probably remove the lower leaves from the plant and start there. I think I'll do that tomorrow. I'll also have to remove some lower leaves from Tropicana Cookies as well. The wrap around the rim training looks pretty good. It's not much tighter, but enough to need to remove some leaves for air flow mostly. The lighting is really good, so I'm not worried about it yet. Plus, defoliating will also make light space. The one thing I won't be doing is making the mistake of not trimming appropriately. I will probably lollipop these two once they get the stretch going. I decided to change the nutrient regimen back down to 8 ml instead of the 10 ml I originally was going to do. I feel like that is fine and won't cause anymore toxicity. But will also be plenty to help these ladies grow bigger and stronger. I didn't change the lighting today, but I lifted it up yesterday an inch to match the 24" footprint. I may have to drop it down to 22" later on to a oid going to 100% power. I will go there if I have to, but I'd rather not. The environment was driving me crazy. So today, I finally added the dehumidifier to help fix the temp and humidity. The focus will be the VPD more than the humidity. Currently the dehumidifier has finally increased the temp up to 76° and the humidity is still kinda high at 57%, but it's dropping down. Now it's just a matter of letting the environment acclimate again. Quick Update: I decided to train Tropicana C down with the same wrap around technique I used for Tropicana Cookies. It should work quite well. Not to mention, it opened up a plethora of bud sites and auxiliary branches. It also brought the canopy down with the rest of the tent. Grow System Environment: Temp: 71.6° RH: 57.9% VPD: 1.09 kPa March 27, 2024 It was defoliation day today. Both ants got about 15% of their leaves cut off. It was mostly the outside leaves to make room and better airflow between plants. I removed a few leaves in the center of the plants. Not many. But now both plants are opened up quite nicely and there's definitely enough airflow and light penetration. I don't think I will need to defoliate again for a few weeks. If they start to stretch like mad, then I may not need to defoliate at all. We shall see. Both plants are drinking the exact same amount of water. So far it's about 1/3 gallon of water per day. It will certainly pick up as the plants get bigger and more robust. The environment is looking good. The trim also removed some of the excess humidity which also helped the temp stay up. I did figure out why the tent was so cold for so long. Someone turned the temp in the house down. So it wasn't warming up in my room. My heater is just a supplement for when it's super cold and I need that extra boost. Alone it won't bring the room over 72°. So now I just need to remove the dehumidifier and the temp will level out around 77° with the humidity at 56%. Currently the tent is 80° and 54% a bit high in the temp. It will all level out in no time. I didn't move the light today. I'll check on it when I check the ants for post defoliation stress. Let's hope they are tough enough to take the defoliation like champs. We shall see. Update: I messed with the light. Strangely enough, I had to drop the power down to 80% and ended up with the light being around 25". Now the DLI is at 42 mol/m²/d. I'll look at it again starting next week. I may have to bring the power up again, but I don't think I will for another week at least. Right now, the DLI is perfectly fine. It will help with the ants reaching and spreading those nodes out for the flowering stretch. Grow System Environment: Temp: 76.5° RH: 55.3° VPD: 1.36 kPa March 28, 2024 Today was basically observation. I'll be cleaning out the reservoirs tomorrow and refill with a fresh nutrient regimen. I have some B-52 from Advanced Nutrients coming in today, so that will be added. I also have Sensizym from Advanced Nutrients coming in a couple days. That will be added at the next watering. Both plants are starting to stretch now and pre-flower is well underway. The stretch has started and both plants have perfectly level canopies and level with each other. The auxiliary branches took off and are level with the rest of the main side branches. Everything looks great. There really isn't any difference between the two, so I'm super happy. Great genetics! Let's hope I get some beautiful colors out of them. I didn't bother changing the light at all. The plants are praying slightly and are extremely happy. No sense in increasing the light intensity while the stretch is going on. I'll just let them grow into the light and raise it when it gets closer than 22". Then I'll lift it up to 24" and adjust the power accordingly. The environment is spot on now... Finally. The temp is just at 77° with the humidity bouncing between 55% and 57%. All good things. Grow System Environment: Temp: 73.6° RH: 54.9% VPD: 1.25 kPa

It was a perfect 11-week cycle, everything went very well, I really liked the result using the new Lec lighting system, my first cultivation in coconut, it was difficult to adapt with the watering at first, but I soon adapted. I really liked the result so far of 3 plants harvested, total of 1055kg wet, I still lack two plants to harvest. Post results later.

second week of flowering done. They were stretching like crazy. Installed a 3rd net to keep the stretch under control. Jumped from 35 cm to 83 cm in 2 weeks. They giving me some headache because of the hight. Should have send them 1 or 2 weeks earlier into flower. But it’s a lesson how to handle or not handle hybrids and sativas. Over all in was quite relaxing just adding water/ nutrients and doing some defoliation. So far so good. it’s quite easy to keep them on the same level with 3 nets. Still learning how to handle certain situations and conditions. But so far I am happy. They have got a massive need of Kalium at the moment. Should have given them more TA -Grow nutrients. But that’s party of learning. Really happy about the aeroponic setup. Really like the full control of the grow medium. (Compared to soil it’s easier for control freaks). Really water efficient compared to dwc/hydro/soil and changes made take effect pretty fast. Really nice oxygen supply at the roots and overall nice control possibilities regarding to roots and medium/solution. A possible downside could be that u can only use mineral nutrients and no organic nutrients. (We want some bacteria and fungus but not these ones that break down organic nutrients. That is more a preference thing than anything else. Good made hydro can compete with soil easily but most ppl put to much in there and ruin it any way. (Don’t want to trigger its good that everyone got its own style and evolves it in his needs and conditions.) The maintenance effort that is required for aero is a bit higher than soil and dwc but it pays off. (Personal opinion but numbers proof it) Looking forward to the next weeks and flower build up.

Que pasa familia, vamos con la cuarta semana de floracion de estas Lemonpaya feminizadas de fastbuds. Vamos al lío, de las 3 plantas, me quede con 2 por espacio, siempre pongo alguna semilla de más por si no abriese alguna por no perder ese hueco del indoor. También se trasplantaron a su maceta definitiva, en este caso de 7 litros que además provocó un shock que también solucione. El ph se controla en 6.2 , la temperatura la tenemos entre 20/22 grados y la humedad ronda el 50%. Las flores empezaron a formarse y progresan a buen ritmo. No entiendo que a sucedido , uno de los 2 ejemplares tiene un bloqueo severo de nutrientes, estoy controlando el Ph correctamente y la alimentación ración pues corte a ver si vuelve a reestructurarse. Hasta aquí todo, Buenos humos 💨💨💨

Ya en la recta final familia, están apuntito, solo unos días más. Nuestras lemon kush ya recibieron su lavado de raíces , están sin productos ya solo AGUA. Controlamos de todas formas el Ph igual y que no baje por debajo de 6,2. Bestiales estás flores , un olor muy característico con tonalidades cítricas que recuerdan al limón. Todo un clásico en verdad. Estos ejemplares carecen de brazos laterales, son óptimas para un SOG desde semilla, pudiendo llenar 16 plantas en metro cuadrado.

March 15, 2024 Day 29 I didn't end up doing a lot today. I watered in a full liter of the new nutrient regimen per plant. They seem to have taken well to it. No signs of stress yet. Took some pictures and measured the plants. I forgot to measure the light distance, which I will do at some point today. I also didn't activate the bottom feed system today. I'll do that tomorrow morning. I wanted to see if there was any stress. Nothing, so tomorrow it is. So over the last week, I had to start training and the plants grew a good 5" through the week. They are about 8" tall now, after the training, which I might add went swimmingly. The side branches took off immediately and I'll be tying those down in the next day or 2. They are both a lush green color with Banana Purple Punch B being super tight. It will definitely need a defoliation. Banana Purple Punch A is really different in stature. Not so compact, but the same leaf structure. So far I'm happy with this run. The environment is still doing quite well. I will keep the temps around 77° and the humidity down a bit lower to around 55%, if I can get it there. I'll update lighting tomorrow. Currently the PAR is 550 ppfd. However, they aren't out of veg yet. I may keep the lights as they are for the time being. Maybe til the middle of the week and then I'll increase the DLI to around 40 mol/m²/d for the rest of the week. Grow System Environment: Temp: 73.7° RH: 60.9% VPD: 1.08 kPa March 16, 2024 Today was a busy day. Finished up everything I didn't do yesterday. Both plants got their bottom feed system activated. The roots aren't quite out far enough, but that should t be a problem. The containers should start absorbing through the wicks in no time. Then the concentration of water will be on the bottom half bringing the roots all the way down and spread out. It should be quite successful. They also got fully trained. All taller branches tied down. The tops were readjusted a smidge. But the main branches were tied down. Banana Purple Punch B is still really bushy and compact. Training helped quite a bit, but there still massive leaves and short nodes. Banana Purple Punch A is perfect. She has beautiful internodal spacing that helped keep the canopy opened and ready to fill in. Her leaves are massive, but were easily moved around. Both plants have beautiful colors and are the same height. So far so good. Let's hope I can keep up through the stretch. The lighting is staying the same for now. The distance is now 24" and the PAR is 600 ppfd. I may peek at 80% power today to see what the reading is. If it's around 650, I'll keep it there. If higher, I'll drop it back down. Then I'll increase it next week. Next week should be pre-flower or at some point this week. The environment is also good. It's been a bit cold the past couple of days, so the temp is hovering around 75° instead of 77° and the humidity is a little high at 61%. Grow System Environment: Temp: 73.3° RH: 59.9% VPD: 1.09 kPa March 17, 2024 Not much to do today. The bottom feeding systems are running perfectly. The soil moisture level is now at 30% and that's where I'm keeping it for now. I made 2 training adjustments today on Banana Purple Punch A just a couple branches pulled back down. However, Banana Purple Punch B is too bushy already. I'm going to have to defoliate in a couple days I think. Also, the main top tie down was useless. The plant just grew more and completely knocked off the tie down. I can't do it again for now. Not until there's a bit of stretch. However, the side branches I pulled down are looking good, but still super dense. I'll most likely cut the main stalk fan leaves off. That should do the trick. The light was raised 2" today. Hopefully it helps with praying. There isn't any and I'm wondering if the light needs to be brighter. It's kind of counterintuitive, but if the lack of light doesn't induce praying, then maybe it's not bright enough. The sweet spot needs to be somewhere for this strain. I'll figure it out. Other than that, some pictures today and monitoring the water intake. Update: I decided to increase the power to 80%. That should help with the temp and humidity. The DLI is 41.5 mol/m²/d. This should be perfect for this stage in the grow. Grow System Environment: Temp: 74.0° RH: 59.2% VPD: 1.14 kPa March 18, 2024 Looking great today! The bottom feed systems are fully active and the soil moisture is at 36% throughout. It's a tiny bit wetter on the bottom where the feed system is, but nothing crazy. There's about a half gallon left from the initial activation. That should last the rest of the week. Then I can add new water and nutes. Because this is a bottom feed system and the soil is more like coco coir, I will have to run a constant feeding regimen. Maybe every few waterings I'll run a half gallon of plain PHed water to 6.0. everything else with watering is fantastic. I couldn't ask for a better outcome with the startup. The ending result is a nice crust on the top soil to help lock moisture in and prevent bugs from laying eggs. Both ladies got a full training adjustment. As well as a few branches that finally got long enough to tie down. Banana Purple Punch A is looking great! The main top is doubled over like a horseshoe. But no breaks or anything. Banana Purple Punch B is also looking great. Super lunch full leaves. Still extremely short nodes, but I can deal with that in a week or so when I defoliate. These two plants are very different. Definitely different phenomes where Banana Purple Punch A is more on the hybrid side while Banana Purple Punch B is definitely a solid indica. We'll see what happens in the end. I feel I'm going to have to train Banana Purple Punch B differently. The top won't stay down, so I'm either going to top it or just defoliate and tie down the branches for light and air circulation. Hopefully because of her tight stature, she won't stretch past the other plants in the tent and the canopy stays level. We shall see. Lighting is spot on with the plants praying slightly. I guess my theory made sense. It's not the lack of light that causes praying, not too much light. I now understand the "sweet spot". I'll have to ensure it stays in the sweet spot for the rest of the grow. It should with my lighting schedule. The environment is finally adjusting back to normal, with the temp being around 76° and the humidity at 56%. Nothing to complain about here. Grow System Environment: Temp: 74.8° RH: 59.8 VPD: 1.16 kPa March 19, 2024 Not much going on today. I did some minor adjustments to the plants tied downs. Rotated them slightly for a better fit in the tent. I also separated the basins and now they are in their own quadrants. No sense in watering today. The basins are still about 1/4 full. They will definitely need to be refilled in a couple days. Perfect timing. The plants themselves are looking great. Banana Purple Punch A has a bit of nitrogen toxicity. I'll have to drop the nutrients down next refill a bit. Maybe 10 ml instead of 12 ml. Banana Purple Punch B is still super bushy and tight. I might have to top her if she takes off and starts getting taller than the other plants in the canopy. I did make adjustments to the tie downs and pulled two top branches down. The plant is seriously compact, but the same size as her sister plant. When she takes off, I will be expecting a robust and strong plant. Also, I'd like to mention the stem is super thick on both plants, especially with Banana Purple Punch B. Very promising for a heavy yield. So based on my last run, if everything goes as it's going currently, I should expect 36" plants. At that size and the density this strain has, I may be expecting a good 9 oz from each plant. Unless I can get slightly bigger plants, then maybe 12 oz. Who knows. My last grow had one plant yield 21.5 oz. This run is better so far in every aspect. No accidents with topping or light issues, or environmental factors. Feeding has been really good. With the current exception having a slight nitrogen toxicity, which I will fix ASAP. Lighting is looking great! I may have to raise it an inch or so later today, if not tomorrow. I'll leave it at this power level for the next couple weeks until we are in full swing flower, then I'll increase the power again and adjust accordingly. I may not even get to 100% power. Wouldn't that be nice. The environment is looking really good. The temp is around 76° and the humidity is at a solid 57% during the day. Maybe even perfect for this week in the grow. Grow System Environment: Temp: 73.8° RH: 56.5% VPD: 1.21 kPa March 20, 2024 Today was a bit busy. So far I tied down some new branches that were finally long enough to tie down. Only on Banana Purple Punch A. She needed adjustments for the whole plant. Very happy with the growth so far. Banana Purple Punch B had her branches adjusted, but now I'm really concerned with her taking off and getting taller than the rest of the canopy. I'm thinking she needs to be topped. Just in case. I may ask a question and see what the community thinks. Roots aren't showing totally yet, so I can only imagine what the root balls look like. Maybe they will get big, following big plants. Banana Purple Punch B hasn't shown any roots yet, but I expect roots to pop out any day now. We aren't in pre-flower yet, so there's still plenty of room to grow and plenty of time for me to shape my ladies. So far, the way things are going promises a bountiful yield and a full tent. The reservoirs are nearly empty. Banana Purple Punch A is actually at the bottom and just about dried up. This time around, I can let the basins dry out. In regards to nutrients, funnily enough, Banana Purple Punch A has nitrogen toxicity. It's definitely from the huge boost in nutrients. I'll drop the nutes back down to around 8 ml instead of 12 ml. This next watering will have to be with Cal/Mag. Just to get rid of the toxicity. Then back to 8 ml of base nutrients. As for lighting, I raised the light an inch to keep it at 24" from the canopy. The PAR is around 625 ppfd. I don't need to increase the power level yet, but soon I think. The environment is back to being spot on. The temp is back around 76° to 77° and the humidity is hovering around 56%. The VPD is right where it needs to be. I'm quite happy. Update: I decided to try tying down the top of Banana Purple Punch B one last time. If it doesn't take and it's standing straight up tomorrow, I'll have to top her. It should take this time. The bend is a perfect 90 degree angle. And this time I made sure to secure the tie straight down and tied it to a side branch. The side branches are super thick, so it will definitely hold. Grow System Environment: Temp: 73.7° RH: 56.6% VPD: 1.20 kPa March 21, 2024 Not much going on today. Both basins were refilled today with 10 ml instead of 12 ml. I probably should have run the plain water as I originally thought, but then I don't want to lose out on precious nutrients. The nitrogen toxicity should go away. Hell, it might even go away when the plant gets bigger. Speaking of getting bigger, they are taking off now. Banana Purple Punch A is kind of a tangled mess. It's beautiful. Great color huge leaves. Some 7 finger leaves coming out. The training is working quite well with the side branches sticking out past the boundaries of the container by a good few inches all around. Banana Purple Punch B is the most well rounded plant in shape and structure. The top tie down took swimmingly. A perfect 90° bend. Each branch has its own space. Because the plants is so compact, this was the only way I could train her. The difference is that I like to tie down the whole plant at first. This plant was a no go, so it has quite a uniform shape going on. Still it's different. So the plant will turn out different than her sister plant. The light needed to be raised a half inches today. Just to get that DLI at 40 mol/m²/d. Tomorrow I'll probably increase the power to 90%. The goal is to bring the DLI to 42 mol/m²/d and gradually let the plants grow into a DLI of 45 mol/m²/d. I will try to keep the light at 24" for the whole grow. As I said weeks ago, I'll go as low as 22", but any lower than that and my footprint gets too small. I may have to increase the power to 100% in 2 weeks. And keep the light at 24" or higher. Unless of course I run out of height space, then I have to remove the exhaust fan and left the light to the ceiling of the tent.etd hope it doesn't get to that point. Plants that tall are really difficult to manage in a 3x3 tent. The environment. The effing environment. It's freezing today. Around 21° f. My room has trouble getting over 72° in turn the temp of the tent is suffering at 74°. However, the humidity is still great at 56% to 57% all day. Sometimes it pops up to 58%, but that will change when it gets warmer and I can get my heater to work properly. I like to keep the bedroom at 74° during the day, so the tent hovers around 76° to 77°. Hopefully it will fix in a day or two. Grow System Environment: Temp: 73.0° RH: 56.3% VPD: 1.18 kPa

Bueno resumiendo cookies gelato es una variedad híbrida muy fácil de cultivar pero ojo, cuidado con los últimos riegos si no queréis perder cosecha por moho. Lo demás de 10 pegada heavy sabor increíble, cogollos duros como rocas y bañados de una gran capa de polen. El ambiente del secado se mantuvo en 23 grados de media y la humedad estuvo por debajo de los 45% en todo momento. Poco más la verdad estuve encantado de poder cultivar una genética tan potente . Un saludazo que paséis un final de año increíble y por supuesto buenos humazooos💨💨💨.

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. I am not on facebook instagram twitter etc All accounts except this one are fake. Have fun with the update. Flowering day 26 since time change to 12/12. Hey everyone 😃. Another great week goes by. Last week, instead of 2 g of GHSC Powder Feeding, I only gave 1.5 g p l of substrate so that I can give you another 1 g per l of substrate next week so that it lasts until the end :-). It is developing very well and the buds are starting to grow :-). The week was poured 3 times with 1.1 l each time. once of them GHSC Enhancer was added :-). The bottom shoots have now also been removed :-). As always, the humidifier was refilled every day and the lady was checked for her health. I hope you enjoy the update. Stay healthy and let it grow 😊🍀.

** 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. Green greets y os invitó, a que disfruten del vídeo y de las fotos...

Esta semana he regado solo con flora booster 2 ml x litro de agua. La planta de la tierra, la sigo estirando hacia los costados. Las de las macetas se ven sanas y bien, de a poco se van
