๐Ÿ—“๏ธ Week 11 complete โ€“ 7th week of flowering This week things got interesting: After increasing the feed to 2.0 EC, drain values jumped up to 2.2โ€“2.6 โ€“ a clear sign of salt buildup in the medium. pH stayed stable at 6.2โ€“6.3, and no visible signs of overfeeding so far ๐ŸŒฑ Starting with the next watering, Iโ€™ll dial back to 1.6โ€“1.7 EC to help rebalance the nutrient uptake and residuals in the substrate. That said โ€“ Seriotica is looking amazing: healthy, strong, and showing no stress or lockouts despite the elevated drain. Frost and density are picking up fast โ€“ resin production is in full swing โ„๏ธ๐Ÿ”ฅ ๐Ÿ”ด Visual highlight: Seriotica is turning into a real showstopper โ€“ soft pink and purple hues blending into a thick frost layer. The scent is sweet and earthy โ€“ and itโ€™s getting stronger by the day ๐ŸŒธ

A plant with both standard cellular respiration (occurring throughout the plant, including leaves and stems) and adequate root respiration will have a significantly higher ATP throughput than one restricted to only general cellular respiration in a limited way. Cellular respiration is the fundamental metabolic process that occurs in all living plant cells (roots, stems, leaves, flowers, seeds) to convert glucose into usable energy (ATP). It requires oxygen and produces carbon dioxide and water as byproducts. Root respiration is not a separate type of respiration, but rather a specific instance of cellular respiration occurring in the roots. Roots absorb oxygen from the air spaces in the soil to fuel their energy needs. Roots require a substantial amount of ATP for essential functions like nutrient and water absorption, as well as growth and maintenance of their tissues. The primary form of respiration in healthy plant roots is aerobic respiration, which is highly efficient, yielding up to 30-38 ATP molecules per glucose molecule. Anaerobic Respiration (Inefficient): If roots are deprived of oxygen (e.g., in waterlogged soil), they switch to anaerobic respiration, which is far less efficient, producing only 2 ATP molecules per glucose molecule and also generating alcohol, which can be toxic and kill the plant. Therefore, a plant with healthy, oxygenated roots performing efficient aerobic respiration in addition to the rest of the plant's cellular respiration has a much greater overall ATP production and energy capacity. A soil without organic matter will generally have a low Cation Exchange Capacity (CEC). Biochar is often prized for its potential to increase soil cation exchange capacity (CEC), but this effect is highly dependent on the specific properties of the biochar (feedstock and pyrolysis temperature) and the soil type to which it is applied. High-ash biochars, especially those produced at lower temperatures and applied to acidic or sandy soils, can significantly boost CEC by providing abundant binding sites for cations like calcium (Caยฒโบ), magnesium (Mgยฒโบ), and potassium (Kโบ). Biochar is more sustainable than typical organic matter for long-term soil improvement primarily due to its high stability and resistance to microbial decomposition, allowing it to persist in the soil for hundreds to thousands of years. This longevity provides a lasting positive effect on soil properties, particularly by increasing the cation exchange capacity (CEC) over time, while regular organic matter breaks down much faster. Biochar generally offers a much higher CEC than coco coir, though specific values vary greatly; while coco coir might sit around 40-60 cmol/kg, biochar can range from tens to over 200 cmol/kg, with sources like Acacia wood biochar or even coconut shell biochar often surpassing coco's capacity due to its porous structure, creating significantly more cation-binding sites for nutrients, making it superior for nutrient retention. Needs to be charged similar to coco but at a much higger rate. But shhhh.. It's a secret. Ancient biochar-rich soils in the Amazon basin (known as Terra Preta) provide evidence of carbon stability lasting over 500 to 2,000+ years. Recommend a balanced ratio of key cations, particularly calcium (Ca), magnesium (Mg), and potassium (K). A widely accepted general "ideal soil" cation saturation ratio is approximately 65-85% Ca, 6-12% Mg, and 2-5% K. That's roughly what I give mine. Can even add N in its NH4+ form

Is a potent strain & has a spicy aftertaste but sweet & candy gas terp on the low. Can definitely tell leaning on the Runtz side & yield was okay but not like Permanent Pounder yield since I harvest both on 420. Runtz Head a tasty strain while Permanent Pounder gassy funk & sour.. will update pounder .. I think I shall do better in future. Going to go with a 4 gallons fabric pot & see what happening without the net trellis.

Welcome growers More then 35 days was passed of life for this lady, CREAM CARAMEL ๐Ÿฌ๐Ÿญ๐Ÿซ Looking closely at it, it is already starting to develop pre-flowers, even before officially going into bloom The look is pretty good, happy and a nice color So far I have never had a problem with Sweet Seeds genetics, despite never having found anything that mind blowing me But maybe she will be Anyway In this week i have reduced the lights cycle from 16/8 on/off to 14/10 on/off ๐Ÿ’ก At the same time i have increase the intensity of my two led SP3000 from 50% to 75% and im going to put them at the maximum potency after the switch at 12/12 The two led panel are connected with a cable and i have only to adjuste the dimmer of one of them for change the intensity of each one, in just one move.. About nutrients ๐Ÿ‘‡ In this week i still giving their always organic/veganic nutrients.. A little bit of silicium (Bionova) / Activator (Biomagno) / Crescita (Biomagno) / Activera (Biobizz) / Grow vegan (Bionova) / The Missing Link (Bionova) / X-Cell (Bionova) / Bioheaven (Biobizz) for the first time and a little bit of P-K 3-5 (Bionova) {not in spray solution but mixed with the othersone in to the water} Like i usually do, a little bit of everything at any watering ๐Ÿ’ง Works great to mee ๐Ÿ’ฏ That's all for now.. Next week we are officially in flowering, so stay tuned ๐ŸŒป Thanks guys for stopping by ๐Ÿ˜Ž๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘ FC โœŒ๏ธ ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡น

Week N-3. The Cookies plant is doing well. grows normally. Easy Boost Organic Nutrition works perfect. I added GHE Diamond nectar and GHE Roots this week. You can see, that I started to train plants using LST and FIM. I water the plant every day; Plants are not stressed and continue to grow normally. On the next week I plan to do: 1. Put on the air filter, as you can smell a wonderful smell right now. unfortunately not wonderful for everyone. :) 2. Place the grid for SCROG. The plant has a lot of branches, which is very pleasing. So the SCROG- MUST have. |:)

Hey guys :-) She is developing great. This week was poured 2 times with 1 l each (nutrients see table above) Otherwise, everything was cleaned and the lady sprayed with Fast Plant Spray. Since there are still 2 weeks left until there is space in the bloom tent, the topping was made again ๐Ÿ˜ƒ have fun with the update and stay healthy ๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ™๐Ÿป ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ You can buy this Nutrients at : https://greenbuzzliquids.com/en/shop/ With the discount code: Made_in_Germany you get a discount of 15% on all products from an order value of 100 euros. ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ You can buy this strain at : Greenhouse seeds Company Water ๐Ÿ’ง ๐Ÿ’ง๐Ÿ’ง Osmosis water mixed with normal water (24 hours stale that the chlorine evaporates) to 0.2 EC.

These girls sprouted and then had no light for 2 and a half days, so a little leggy. Put them under 25% power LED to see how they respond will increase as needed over next few days, to 100% blue spectrum.. The genetics are either, selfed (G T H), or stray Skywalker that also selfed.. Soo a selfed GTH or sky ghost train. I think I like the possibilities.๐Ÿ™ 03/27/2018 Day 6, 100% blue spectrum, 25% red, perking up watered.

Weather has been quite dull this week but this girl is pushing strong into flower fed twice this week with 3ml bio bloom 3ml topmax and 5ml algamic per litre and was happy until weekend arrived now showing small signs of nute burn on tips of some fans will most likely feed for one last week and flush with water till finish! Am still so impressed with these genetics this plant has truely been through hell snapped at 4 weeks and accidentally topped during preflower and Is still producing nicely very proud Of progress and looking forward to the end results! Truely awesome to see what can be done in the back garden ;)

Alike Lamb Breath this lady loves the cold weather, but the most important thing Iโ€™ve seen is just balancing light, nutrients, stress, and water. I am going to have fun now with these ladies, when it comes to LST all I am missing is a fan, but this will be an indication whether I really do need a fans to circulate airflow to mimic

Week 11 Week 4 of Flower This lady is pretty happy right now. She did get a bit of tip burn this week but nothing too serious. This plant really stretched out. Even more so than her tent mate the Mimosa EVO. There are loads of bud site now so the fun has truly begun. I am excited for the weeks ahead. Cooler internals: 5.9pH 650ppm 67F solution temperature Onward ๐Ÿ˜Ž๐Ÿป
