Vegetative #22 22/September/25. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Foliar Application: Preventive treatment for pests with Neem Oil and Potassium Soap Nutrition: Parameter of the week 1.650 μS/cm EC I start with softwater around to 0.060 EC CALiMAGic = 11ml to 660 μS/cm EC Canna Coco A&B up 30ml to 1.650 μS/cm EC Total Solution 10 L Watering: I watered my plants with a solution with the following inputs and outputs pH = 5.8 EC = 1.650 μS/cm Input Total Solution 13 L Solution = 3.25 L each Run-Off = 1.780 μS/cm pH Run-Off = 6.5 Volume Run-Off = 3000ml between 22% Observations: Today I practiced High-Stress Training with a Super Cropping to the 4 plants only to not stress to much the plants because this week I will perform big defoliation and lollipopping and finally secure all super cropping made before heal completely Now it fixed the nutritional deficit and I finally archive a good EC Run-Off Vegetative #25 25/September/25. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Nutrition: Parameter of the week 1.650 μS/cm EC I start with softwater around to 0.060 EC CALiMAGic = 11ml to 660 μS/cm EC Canna Coco A&B up 30 ml to 1.650 μS/cm EC Total Solution 10 L Watering: I watered my plants with a solution with the following inputs and outputs pH = 5.8 EC = 1.650 μS/cm Input Total Solution 13 L Solution = 3.25 L each Run-Off = 1.980 μS/cm pH Run-Off = 6.5 Volume Run-Off = 3000ml between 22% Observations: I made some maintenance making aggressive defoliation and some lollipopping for preparing all for flowering state. I'm using the new moisture sensors that arrive and for test I extended the dry back to see how it works and how I should using with the Irrigation System. For that reason the Run-Off it getting higher but not to much concern... One of my surprise was the response of the plants is start to made more flowering spots like how Crop Steering say... For me it the first time I try to apply this technique of course is not in professional way but to me is a good approach to now how to use it. Vegetative #28 28/September/25. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Nutrition: Parameter of the week 1.650 μS/cm EC I start with softwater around to 0.060 EC CALiMAGic = 11ml to 660 μS/cm EC Canna Coco A&B up 30 ml to 1.650 μS/cm EC Everest in Soil = 11ml Total Solution 10 L Watering: I watered my plants with a solution with the following inputs and outputs pH = 5.8 EC = 1.780 μS/cm Input Total Solution 13 L Solution = 3.25 L each Run-Off = 2.2 μS/cm pH Run-Off = 6.5 Volume Run-Off = 3000ml between 22% Observations: I need to do again a good defoliation, the plants are now huge... Now its time to change the photoperiod because could be a problem if a delay more and will be the first two days of October... I had a pretty high EC in the Run-Off not huge deal the plants can handle very good I will down the nutrition in the next watering for avoid some time of lockout or toxicity. Vegetative #30 30/September/25. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Nutrition: Parameter of the week 1.650 μS/cm EC I start with softwater around to 0.060 EC CALiMAGic = 11ml to 660 μS/cm EC Canna Coco A&B up 30ml to 1.650 μS/cm EC Everest in Soil = 11ml Total Solution 10 L Watering: I watered my plants with a solution with the following inputs and outputs pH = 5.8 EC = 1.780 μS/cm Input Total Solution 13 L Solution = 3.25 L each Run-Off = 1.840 μS/cm pH Run-Off = 6.5 Volume Run-Off = 3000ml between 22% Observations: Today is the last day of veg. For the flowering period I will be more strict on feed methodology now I become to watering every day with sightly increasing EC in every to fertigation to archive the EC week target as soon as possible...

The girls look really nice, growing strong and fast, except 1, I’m growing 2 Alakazam from Seedmakers and 2 Tangerine Dream from Barney’s. T There’s one Alakazam that has presented problems since germination. Some of the leaves have yellow-brown dots, most of her root system is healthy, but it has some brown areas, it seems kinda weak overall, it’s the one that has grown more but the one showing problems. The other Alakazam and the 2 Tangerine Dream are looking really nice. Have been doing 50% nute strength feeding, adjusting ph level daily and showing them a lot of love. Should I do something different with the Alakazam or is it just a weak seed? Thanks!

All in all it was a great grow, alot of challenges alot the way but Im glad i stuck it out because It was 100% worth it in the long run. Buds are a very dark purple, full of trichomes, really special to look at with your own eyes, unfortunately my phone camera doesnt quite catch the beauty. Straight from drying and the buds taste amazing with their own unique taste and smell. I cant wait to see what its like after a 2 week cure! I reccomend growing this strain.

Day 29 29/07/24 Monday Nice feeding today with De-chlorinated tap water pH 6. Gave her 300 ml and she had a small run off. Getting chunky in the stem now 💪💚 Day 31 31/07/24 Wednesday De-chlorinated water pH 6 today with Plagron pk13-14 5ml to 5L Plagron power buds 5ml to 5L Used 300ml of the 5L solution. I will be using these on water days from now on as they are advised to be used every irrigation. We'll see how they perform 💪💚 Day 32 01/08/24 Thursday Another feed today using de-chlorinated tap water pH 6, there now taking 300ml every evening. Day 35 04/08/24 Sunday END OF WEEK 😁 De-chlorinated tap water pH 6 today with Plagron products. 300ml each. Had a issue with leaf invaders this week, I have treated and am checking every 48 hrs so far seems ok and not progressive. All plants look great, very healthy, one of the Overdose is way behind and due to space maybe culled at flower I'll see how she gets on.

Total Days: 70 Flower: 31 Vege growth is stopped or very slow at this point. Might eke out another inch or two. I'll raise the lights as far as they can go soon (only 3-4" for the 650w light on right), but with the higher operating RH%, I've yet to see any pistil burn. The light cycle shift to accomodate the painters definitely stressed 2 plants. One was removed. The second i am retardedly going to keep. I stripped off lower weak buds that had the nanners. Pruned a few weak axilla, too. The nearby plant pistils are lily white, so it should be fine. The pistils will be changing color soon, so that will no longer be a good way to assess the risk going forward. Meh, I know it was caused by light stress, so any seeds not selfed I'll probably keep them. Overall, I'm relatively happy with development. Need to adjust some procedures in next cycle and maybe a few more tweaks in winter 2025-1. Second irrigation went well, but i did find a partially clogged emitter. Probably a plastic bit from hold-punching. With 8 emitters per pot, the overkill makes it irrelvant and the pot wasn't the slowest to finish. A few emitters has some roughly milled inlets. I'll inspect them all over the next couple weeks and replace some as needed. Just realized my new dehum was glowing in my tent the entire time. Luckily the display was facing away but now has a cardboard flap blocking it. If it was fine before, it's even safer now. Photons had to bounce of a wall and travel 5' before it could hit any plant. ----- Early update before end of week upday: So, I've been procrastinating replacing the irrigation setup. It's slowly gotten worse each year (3rd ongoing), but never had the dripper devolve into a dribble. I've been hand-watering 1 or 2 pots the last week or so. Replacing the mini sprinkler heads only fixed 1 of the problem-pots. Think the fittings are leaking on the one that did not improve. All the pvc is gone. All the 1/4" manifolds and tubing are gone. The per plant adjustable nonsense is the worst idea ever as all it does is cause pressure changes and endless tweaking of all the little sprinklers, because changing one impacts all the others, or a speck of dirt might cause a new imbalance that requires adjustments etc - Fucking nightmare of useless repetitive behaviour. Still have the 3/4" ID lead-in, heavy duty, 450psi graden hose with ball shut-off valve and pressure regulator. That is now connected to a 3/4" wye with two 1/2" irrigation tube adapters attached to each end. This forms a loop around the pots with a 1/2" tee per pot that leads to a gate shut-off valve and eight 2-gph pressure compensating emitters - 96 in total. Will do first test run on Sunday. The great thing is that this is all plug and play when I switch to injectors. That'll require some sort of pvc manifold and check valve at the utility tub, but otherwise just connect hose, and it's golden. That's the next step. I'll also re-incorporate the wifi-enabled solenoid valve at that point. Getting rid of the 55-gallon reservoir and pump would be nice. One less thing to maintain (rez) and less things that can break down (pump / powerhead). ------ Sunday Test Flawless first run. Time will tell if they are resistant to clogging, but optimistic at this point. 18psi operational pressure at the irrigation loop. Didn't even need the regulator. The mesh strainer at the pump intake doesn't have the typical, small air-bubble, so the last setup was letting a little air in. The last setup was fatally flawed. Pressure compensating emitters for the win. They didn't even squirt wildly as the air was expelled from empty tubing on first run. Took ~4mins or so. Some pots finished a bit sooner, but that's because they don't drink as much per 24 hours. I can live with that kind of waste. I'll get the timing down to reduce water usage even further. I don't need to wait for every pot to exhibit runoff as that is beyond 10% runoff needs. Might be able to get 4 fertigations before refilling reservoir instead of 3. We'll see. I don't like the minimum ~12-15 gallons sitting over night. It fouls the reservoir faster at low volumes. Anyway, super geeked. They better not clog easily, lol....

Day 84 This smaller plant shows compact and balanced growth, with several short stems supporting evenly spaced leaves. The leaves are a healthy green color, slightly lighter toward the new growth at the top. The plant appears to be in an early to mid-growth stage, with developing shoots that suggest steady progress. It is potted in a well-aerated fabric container, and the soil looks moist but not overwatered. Overall, the plant seems healthy, stable, and properly maintained.

First grow of my life. Have a very basic and mostly DIY setup but so far (day 6) seedlings have kept a consistent growth and have initiated their set of second serrated leaves. Should have two full sets by tmr evening (end of day 7). I noticed that they were very dark and slightly droopy. started giving them bit more to drink and they have responded well. To all exp growers, any constructive comments, advice etc would be great. Plz refrain from commenting if all you have is hate to share! Stay safe friends!

This is a long story but basically cloned from custom IBL of a 10 week pheno of Strawberry Sorbet. All grow kinda slow in veg and mid yield in flower as it makes sativa structured stretchyness with gold balls on her. I have used some SA and will do another natural steroid and pgr boost in week 2 flower in a week. Flipped 6/13 I will port update of flower week 1 soon.

Comienza la 4 semana de vegetativo y a todas se les ha aplicado una poda apical, no muestras síntoma de estrés y lo ha asimilado muy bien. Les daré 3 o 4 días y haré la primera poda de bajos antes de entrar en floración! Saludos y buenos humos

31/07 - Currently in week 2 of flower. Pistil hairs are slowly developing and colas are becoming more established. I also watered them today. 1L of water ph 6.5, I also mixed 1ml of bio grow, 2ml bio bloom, and 1ml top max 03/08 - Watered plants 500ml of just water ph at 6.5. Hope you have a great day! Peace
