Bonjour à tous les padawans et maîtres jedis Jour84 arrosage avec 2 litres d'eau ph6.3 Jour86 arrosage avec 2. 5litres d'eau ph6.3 Jour89 arrosage avec 2 litres d'eau ph6.3 LE MEILLEUR MOMENT POUR RINCER SON CANNABIS Le rinçage commence en général deux semaines avant la récolte. Si le plant a une période de floraison de huit semaines, le rinçage doit commencer six semaines après le début de la période de floraison. Il est préférable de regarder de près les trichomes sur le plant pour déterminer quand votre cannabis est prêt à être récolter. Si les petits trichomes commencent juste à passer d’une couleur transparente à une teinte laiteuse et blanche, c’est une bonne indication que les plants peuvent commencer à être rincés. Il faut s’arranger pour que la majorité des trichomes aient changé vers la couleur désirée pour la récolte après deux semaines – ça devient plus facile à faire avec l’expérience, alors accrochez-vous ! Le rinçage peut également être un bon moyen de remettre à zéro la terre quand un plant est toujours en phase de croissance végétative. Parfois, un cultivateur suralimente par accident son cannabis, ce qui provoque un changement de couleur et un flétrissement du bout des feuilles. Ceci est appelé une « brûlure par nutriments ». Rincer la terre peut éliminer les nutriments excédentaires, ce qui aide à résoudre le problème. Cependant, c’est une mesure drastique à ce stade de la culture, alors assurez-vous que le problème soit bien une brûlure par nutriments et non quelque chose d’autre. Le rinçage ne concerne pas que le moment de la récolte. Cette technique peut aussi être mise en place durant la phase de croissance afin de débarrasser le sol des nutriments. Bien évidemment, les nutriments permettent à votre plante de rester en bonne santé et vous assurent des rendements maximaux, mais une trop grande quantité peut causer une accumulation et un état statique durant lequel la plante ne peut plus y accéder. Le blocage des nutriments peut être causé par une accumulation saline ou des niveaux de pH incorrects. Ces deux causes peuvent être résolues par un rinçage de votre plante à l’eau claire. Les fluides viendront pousser les nutriments en dehors du substrat et le débarrasseront de l’accumulation, permettant ainsi aux racines de pouvoir accéder à nouveau aux nutriments. EMPÊCHER LE BLOCAGE D'ABSORPTION DES NUTRIMENTS AVANT QU’IL NE POSE PROBLÈME Au mieux, le blocage des nutriments peut être un problème, au pire, il peut être un vrai désastre. Comme le dit l’adage, il vaut mieux prévenir que guérir. Il vaut mieux prendre de l’avant pour empêcher le blocage des nutriments plutôt que de s’y atteler lorsque c’est trop tard. Empêcher le blocage des nutriments peut se faire par le biais d’un rinçage de routine. En rinçant vos plantes une fois avant la floraison et une fois au milieu de cette dernière, vous minimiserez l’accumulation de nutriments. LES ENZYMES À LA RESCOUSSE Après le rinçage pour contrer l’accumulation ou le blocage des nutriments, vous remarquerez peut-être que vos plantes ont une apparence vert foncé, c’est le signe d’un excès de nutriments. Dans ce cas, certains cultivateurs choisissent d’ajouter une formule riche en enzymes à leur substrat. Au cas où vous auriez oublié vos cours de biologie, les enzymes sont des protéines qui catalysent les réactions. Elles aident à rincer le substrat en décomposant l’amidon, les glucides et les nutriments. Il existe sur le marché toute une variété de produits qui contiennent des formules d’enzymes très efficaces. Si l’eau ne suffit pas à vos plantes, ces petites protéines ne feront qu’une bouchée de l’accumulation de nutriments ! COMMENT BIEN RINCER SON CANNABIS Rincer votre plant de cannabis est un processus simple. À chaque fois que vous apporteriez normalement des nutriments, vous rincez à la place. De l’eau du robinet non traitée est tout ce dont vous avez besoin pour rincer, assurez-vous juste que son pH est sans danger pour le cannabis. La plupart de l’eau de puits a un pH sain et ne nécessite pas de traitement, mais s’il est nécessaire de traiter l’eau de rinçage pour avoir un pH adapté, faites-le. Les ajustements du pH seront donc la seule chose à considérer. Inonder la terre avec autant d’eau fraîche qu’elle puisse contenir. Laissez l’eau durant quelques minutes pour qu’elle puisse absorber les nutriments, puis inondez la terre encore pour rincer les nutriments loin du plant. Si vous cultivez en intérieur dans des pots, notez la couleur de l’eau qui s’échappe du fond des pots. Elle sera tâchée et aura une couleur sale. C’est à cette étape qu’un appareil de mesure des TDS (Total des Solides Dissous) est utile. Si vous récupérez et mesurez le TDS de l’eau « évacuée », elle devrait avoir un taux de 1300ppm, ce qui est assez élevé. Il est important de rincer le plant jusqu’à ce que total baisse à un niveau de 50ppm, ou du moins qu’il s’approche du TDS de l’eau fraîche que vous utilisez pour rincer le plant. La couleur de l’eau d’évacuation va s’éclaircir et apparaîtra plus propre. Vous devez tirer autant que possible de minéraux dissous du plant. Comment et Quand Rincer les Plants de Cannabis Rincer les plants de cannabis avant la récolte peut faire la différence entre les meilleurs têtes ou la plus rude pour la gorge. Cette petite tâche est simple et facile à faire. Ajoutez juste de l’eau ! Attention car le moment du rinçage joue un rôle critique. Le b.a.-ba du rinçage de ses plants de cannabis. Sommaire: 1. Qu’est-ce que le rinçage ? 2. Le meilleur moment pour rincer son cannabis 3. Empêcher le blocage d'absorption des nutriments avant qu’il ne pose problème 4. Les enzymes à la rescousse 5. Comment bien rincer son cannabis 6. Comment rincer ses plantes en hydroponie 7. Les résultats du rinçage de son cannabis 8. Quand éviter de rincer son cannabis Vous avez enfin fini vos cultures et vous vous retrouvez avec un magnifique plant couvert de super têtes, maintenant sèches, vous avez fait le curing et vous êtes prêt à fumer – et pourtant quelque chose ne va pas. La weed semble ne pas vouloir se consumer et quand vous tirez une bouffée, c’est comme si on vous avait donné un coup de poing dans les poumons et vous toussez en craignant pour votre vie ! Le goût est rude et décevant. Si c’est une situation que vous avez vécue, il y a des chances pour que vos plants n’aient pas été rincés correctement avant la récolte. Cette fumée bien loin d’être agréable est provoquée par la présence dans le plant des nutriments et minéraux utilisés lors de la culture, ce qui altère la façon dont le plant se consume. Rincer le plant élimine ces nutriments restants, ce qui améliore la qualité des sensations. Heureusement, le rinçage des plants de cannabis se fait facilement et sans effort, et cela vous permet de produire des têtes douces et délicieuses en un rien de temps. ARTICLE LIÉ Comment Utiliser les Nutriments pour Cannabis QU’EST-CE QUE LE RINÇAGE ? L’acte de rincer un plant implique d’utiliser de l’eau pour éliminer tout nutriment présent dans la terre. Une grande quantité d’eau est passée à travers la terre et drainée sur une base régulière. Tous les minéraux et nutriments présents dans la terre sont rincés avec le temps avec l’eau, ce qui laisse une terre propre. Mais pourquoi vouloir éliminer tous les minéraux de la terre ? N’est-ce pas mauvais pour la récolte ? En fait, cela aide à la récolte de manière significative. Quand les nutriments sont éliminés de la terre, ceci force le plant de cannabis à utiliser tous les nutriments toujours présents dans le plant. C’est comme pour le corps humain. Quand on consomme beaucoup d’aliments, ce que nous n’utilisons pas est transformé en graisses. Dans les situations extrêmes où la nourriture est rare, le corps s’appuie sur cette graisse stockée pour tirer de l’énergie. Comme rincer force le cannabis à utiliser tous les nutriments restants dans le plant, aucun ne devrait rester et altérer les têtes récoltées. Cependant, si vous le faites trop tôt, cela peut nuire à la santé du plant, le moment est donc clé. LE MEILLEUR MOMENT POUR RINCER SON CANNABIS Le rinçage commence en général deux semaines avant la récolte.

COMMENT RINCER SES PLANTES EN HYDROPONIE Le rinçage des plantes en hydroponie est bien plus simple que de se débarrasser des nutriments en terre. Les cultivateurs en hydroponie pourront simplement drainer leur système et le remplacer par une eau au pH neutre. Le rinçage des plantes en hydroponie est aussi un processus bien plus court. Une fois que la réserve d’eau aura été modifiée, les plantes en hydro n’auront pas accès aux nutriments externes. Pour cette raison, un rinçage de deux jours suffira. LES RÉSULTATS DU RINÇAGE DE SON CANNABIS Après la récolte des têtes, prenez du temps pour bien faire le curing pour atteindre le potentiel le plus élevé. Un affinage correct par curing permet de réduire encore plus le côté rude des têtes, en éliminant des choses comme un excès de chlorophylle. Vous serez étonné de voir la différence que ce petite effort peut avoir sur votre produit. Tout votre travail se sentira dans la première bouffée de cette weed douce comme de la soie, qui caresse la gorge comme du miel. Le plus doux de la nature. Vous pouvez donc améliorer la qualité de votre cannabis en ajoutant juste de l’eau ! QUAND ÉVITER DE RINCER SES PLANTES Le seul moment où nous recommandons d’éviter le rinçage de son cannabis est lorsque l’on travaille avec une terre biologique amendée ou un super soil. Ces substrats ont été développés avec précaution afin d’héberger des micro-organismes bienfaisants tels que des bactéries ou des champignons. Cette délicate biodiversité pourrait être éliminée et endommagée par le rinçage. Une fois de plus, l’absence de rinçage ne devrait pas poser de soucis, car aucun nutriment externe ou synthétique n’aura été ajouté au substrat. À la place, les plantes comptent sur les micro-organismes pour décomposer la matière organique et la livrer aux racines. May the force be with you 💪

Hello Potheads. As intended, i hope this will be the last vegetative week , the only thing that can turn on a red alert is lack or overdose of nutrients. By saying this, i aknowledge that some plants are showing some requirements but still GROWING AS MONSTERS. I Added Barrier to the feeding scheme, because i'm still with nasty plagues, but at a manageable level, but when i go full flower, i would not be able to spray things. G13: LST finished for these gals, they may by some defoliation before flower. SANTA BILBO: They pre sexed, showing pistils . GTG. ELEVEN ROSES: I just Hope that in the remaining days, get a manageable height. PEACE OUT NIGGAS !

Another week of step increases. I changed out the led light for a MH on Tuesday 10/09. I set the MH light at 200 watts 10 inches away to start with. On Wednesday I watered the girls at 6pm until slight runoff. On Thursday 10/11 I added a floor fan that oscillates to get air movement below the plants. I also increased the MH light to 300 watts and moved the light to 12 inches away from the plants. After the light increase I started to have a huge dip in humidity. I added water to the plant saucers in the tent to bring it up. Its getting better but still not where I want it. I will be monitoring this. Saturday 10/13 I turned up the light to 400watts at 7 pm and increased the light distance to 15inches. Its keeping the temp right around 80f without having to increase fans or any other adjustments. I also did the hand test and it was hot but it was warm so I believe it is in the sweet spot. I watered them again today until runoff. I can't believe the wingspan they already have. Looks like I'll be moving them to 5 gallons way sooner than I thought,

April 5, 2024 Day 50 This week will focus mostly on ScrOG and watering. The lighting will stay roughly the same as the net will be keeping the canopy a bit lower for a bit longer. Nutrients have changed as well. The SCroG net has been installed at 19" from soil. Both plants, again, are the same size and shape and structure and leaf coverage and all. So I had to pull down about 3 tops per plant. The rest of the canopy is just at 19". I plan to keep it that way for at least this week. Hopefully they don't get away from me. The nutrients have been changed around a bit as well. I removed the Big Bud and Sensizym and replaced them with Overdrive at 8 ml/gal and increased Bud Candy to 8 ml/gal for the next 2 to 3 weeks. Then we are looking at flushing for the rest of the grow. So maybe a week and a half of flushing. The lighting was adjusted to match the SCroG net. It is now perfectly set to 24" with the power remaining at 90%. The DLI is at 45 mol/m²/d through most of the canopy. With the net in place, I have a couple extra inches to work with above the light. Plenty of space now. The environment will also be tweaked a bit this week as well. I'm going to try to get the humidity down to 50% by the end of the week, but I always have trouble controlling the environment. I don't expect this to be any different. We shall see. As long as the weather doesn't go insane like it did for my last run, I should be able to keep it steady. Maybe not exactly where I want it, but steady as she goes. I'm also planning on dropping the temp down to 75° for the rest of the run. I'll also be running slightly cooler night temps at that time as well. Maybe 66° would be good. Maybe 65° to bring out that beautiful purple. Update: I forgot to say that I took off a few leaves that were blocking other bud sites. Not many, just to help a bit. Grow System Environment: Temp: 75.2° RH: 54.3% VPD: 1.32 kPa April 6, 2024 Watering day today. Both ladies got a full gallon refill today. I also did a bit of research on the Advanced Nutrients feeding schedule. Of course I have an autoflower, so it's not quite the same. But I can follow a different schedule that matches my 5 week veg stage. I'll be adding the Big Bud back in and removing the Overdrive for this week. I'll review what the plants are doing and decide what action to take next week. I'm pretty sure I'll need to wait another week before adding the Overdrive and pulling out the Big Bud. I did leave the Bud Candy at 8 ml/gal though. They are definitely in need of more candy. Again, both plants are basically the same. They are both sticky all over now. Even the stems are covered in trichomes. Especially so early in the flowering stage. I didn't check the roots on Tropicana Cookies, mostly because with the net in there I have extremely limited space to work. But we all know the roots are everywhere on the bottom of the container. Tropicana C, on the other hand is starting to show more on the outside of the container. I'll check the bottom tomorrow along with Tropicana Cookies. The lighting hasn't changed at all. Mostly because I brought the tops back down under the net. So the DLI is the same at 45 mol/m²/d and 24" from the canopy. Perfect. Now, I don't really understand how to SCroG really. I know to bring the tops back under the net, but what about raising the net to accommodate the growth of the tops after everything is level again. There are some tops that aren't quite at the net yet, but the whole tent is like that, hence the net in place. The environment is pretty good today. The temp is spot on at 75.6° and the humidity is a bit high at 56.7%. But the VPD is still in that perfection range at 1.30 kPa. Update: I ended up snipping some leaves from both ladies. There were a few massive ones that were covering multiple bud sites. There were a few others in the lower part of the canopy that were blocking the lower bud sites. Now there's a good amount of leaf coverage. Grow System Environment: Temp: 76.3° RH: 54.6% VPD: 1.36 kPa April 7, 2024 Looking good today. Both ladies had a couple tops pulled back down. I think I'll continue to pull them down until the rest of the plant starts to grow above the net. It's very close. Maybe another couple of days. Tropicana Cookies looks great! Excellent leaf coverage and bud sites developing everywhere. There really isn't much else to say about it. Roots are inaccessible to me now with the net up and the plant being in a rear quadrant. Tropicana C is starting to develop a beautiful root structure along the bottom of the container. All the way around the bottom outside and the very bottom is coming in super evenly. She also had a couple tops pulled down. The rest is catching up. I'm expecting great things. No watering needed today. I'd say another couple of days, then a full reservoir top off for each. Lighting won't be changed for a few more days. When the tops all start climbing over the net, I'll have to either raise the light or drop the power. I still have plenty of space to lift the light, so I'll leave the power the same unless I need to. Let's hope it only needs to be to 80% if need be. The environment is basically perfect with the temp being at 77° and the humidity at 55%. The VPD is perfect at 1.33 kPa. I couldn't ask for better conditions. I'll be gradually dropping the humidity down to 50% and raise the VPD to 1.45 kPa starting next week. Eventually, I want the humidity down to 40% and the temp around 75°. I should be able to pull it off. Especially if I do one final defoliation. I'm not sure that I will to be honest. Unless these leaves get massive, the coverage is excellent. Update: As I did yesterday, I was further inspecting both plants and discovered a few leaves that needed to go. Just a few km each plant. I had to note it though. Cutting leaves is an important thing to note and a step to be careful with. Too much and the plant could get stressed out. So far I'm seeing zero signs of stress. I don't take a lot though, so I don't expect any stress at all. This is only based on my past experiences. I learned that lack of defoliation can be a bad thing. Not for air and light, but for bud formation. My ants would get so full, they overlapped and left no space for the buds to fully develop. It resulted in airy loose buds. Tasty though. Anyway, the lesson was that I don't take enough off. This time around I'm taking just a bit more and the plants seem to be loving it. Lots and lots of well formed buds deep in the canopy. I'm honestly not too sure how tall they will get. The buds are developing quite nicely, but I can tell they are still very new and have a lot of growing to do. That being said, this should be around when the plants take off. We shall see how things go over the next week or so. Grow System Environment: Temp: 76.1° RH: 54.4% VPD: 1.36 kPa April 8, 2024 Not a lot going on today. Both ladies look the same still. No issues, no stress, just growth. Nearly all the tops are breaking past the net now, so everything is wonderful. No watering today. They have about 2/3 water left, so maybe another day or so. We shall see. With the plants breaking past the net, I had to lift the light today. Not only did I have to lift it, I also had to drop the power down to 80%. No idea why the DLI was so high, but it was at 50 mol/m²/d. Now it's back down to 45 mol/m²/d. Interesting though. I wonder if my meter needs calibration. Maybe. I'll check it out later. For now I'm looking for slight praying. The environment today is just as good as it has been for most of the grow. The temp is at 76° today. It dipped down to 74° for a couple hours, but picked back up a little while ago as I thought it would. The humidity has been wonderful as well. It's fluctuating between 54% and 56%. Wonderful! Update: The light changes were perfect. Just enough to get some slight praying. Everything is good in the world. Grow System Environment: Temp: 76.5° RH: 53.9% VPD: 1.41 kPa April 9, 2024 Nothing to do today except water. Both plants needed a full reservoir refill. So it's taking them roughly 2 days to empty now. Good to know. They are getting thirsty and that means more growth and production. They both have a decent amount of trichomes coming through now. What a wonderful aroma coming from them. Crisp and sour with a fruity base. Very nice indeed. They don't have any differences, so I can't really make a report about each one without writing the same thing, so I'll just describe them as a whole. Both plants have nice roots coverage on the bottom and lower sides of the containers. Their leaf coverage is basically perfect for what I'm looking for. Plenty of foliage to catch the light, but not too much to overshadow bud sites. There's barely any overlapping leaves and zero clusters. The color is wonderful and they are super healthy. The branches are a bit thin and still very pliable. I think I can expect that to change in the next few days or so. I also took just a few leaves off both plants total. Nothing much, but there was a cluster and an overlapping leaf. Just enough to keep the lower tops free and clear of extra foliage. I didn't move the light today. There aren't enough tops over the net to justify it yet. When the stretch finishes up, I'll reevaluate the light position and power to best cover the whole canopy without over doing it with the taller top sites. I may have to move the light up tomorrow though. Either way, it'll need to be paid attention to over the next week or 2. The environment is still fantastic. And it's beautiful out today. The tent is feeling it and is happily at 75° and 51% humidity. The VPD is very happy at 1.42 kPa. For this exact age of the plants and their progress, the VPD should start to rise a bit to 1.40, so it's now spot on. I think I can bring it up to 1.6 without any issues. That should be around 75° and 45% humidity. I'll see what I can do over the next 2 weeks or so. It should be very simple to bring it down to that temp and humidity. Especially if I do a final defoliation. Honestly, I don't think I'll need to do a defoliation at all. Maybe remove a few overlapping leaves and any clusters that pop up. Other than that, it should be fine. Grow System Environment: Temp: 74.7° RH: 50.3% VPD: 1.42 kPa April 10, 2024 A little bit of change today. Both plants are completely through the net with Tropicana Cookies suddenly slowing down a bit. Or it's Tropicana C that has sped up. Either way, Tropicana C has completely cleared and stretched above the net. They are solid tops and don't want to risk breaking them, so they are growing straight up now. Honestly, I think it's time to let them finish stretching. Other than the slight height difference, there isn't anything else to mention. They both look super healthy and are growing quite nicely. I can't wait to see what they end up like. The light was raised an inch today. That's specifically due to Tropicana C and her stretch. Unfortunately, I'm nearly out of space for the light to go. Either way, the DLI is back down to 45 mol/m²/d. I am also debating on shrinking the footprint a couple inches. Mostly to increase the intensity for better canopy penetration. I may drop it to 22" instead. The canopy isn't all that deep, so this should give some pretty good bud throughout the whole plant. I'm also considering the SCroG net. Frankly, I would like to pull each plant out for inspection and maintenance. With the net there, it cannot be done. However, if the plants stretch in such a way that I can safely lift the net up and off, I will. It all depends on how they look after stretching has finished up. And of course to make sure the buds aren't weighing down the whole branch. I will say, the internodal spacing is really nice. The environment is way off today. The humidity is high at 58° and the temp is low at 74°. It's definitely hurting the VPD at 1.14 kPa. I'll have to mess with it more to see what I can do. I also didn't snip any leaves off today. They really don't need it. However, they may need it in a couple weeks. We shall see. Grow System Environment: Temp: 77.5° RH: 52.5% VPD: 1.49 kPa April 11, 2024 A bit of a trimming session today for both ladies. Not a full session, mind you, but some trimming was done. Mostly leaves in the lower canopy. I also removed a few leaves that were being crushed against the walls of the tent. Those came off as well. I also removed a couple tie downs to allow for those branches to lift up a bit. With the net in place, there is plenty of space in the canopy for light and airflow. Especially from the original training and the way I defoliated. Both ladies are now covered in sticky and sweet smelling trichomes. I was kind of hoping for the trichomes to show up a week ago, but this is fine. I mean, the stretch isn't even done yet, so I can expect even more trichomes. Speaking of trichomes production, my last grow didn't have much in sticky trichomes. I'm thinking it had to do with the light being entirely way too close. It just burned off the trichomes. This round should be much better with the light so far away. Tropicana Cookies looks fantastic. She has wonderful bud to leaf ratio. Great colors and stretching quite nicely. Her tops are completely level and about an inch above the net total. So e of the tops are taller, but not by much. I'm hoping for at least 24" from her. Tropicana C also looks great. It officially has to tallest cola in the tent. I tried to bend it down into the net, but it's just too stiff and tall now. I may tie it down into the tent. I'll check back later today and decide then. She should hit 24" by the end of the stretch. The lighting will need to be changed I think starting tomorrow. With the height where it is and the intensity, it may need a power increase. I also might drop the light an inch. One or the other. The DLI is a tiny bit low, just below 45 mol/m²/d. The outsides are at 38 mol/m²/d, so the intensity needs to be increased. I'm struggling with the environment today. It's super rainy out and it's causing the tent to be a bit too humid. The temp is fine at 75°, but the humidity is a bit high at 56%. It should be around 50% to 53%. The VPD, of course, is a bit low at 1.33 kPa. It should be above 1.40 kPa at this stage. I'll continue to fight with it for the rest of the day. Although, the forecast says rain for a few days, so that may be a pain in the ass. Don't get me wrong, the humidity will drop down in a couple hours, but the exhaust fan power is at 100%. I'd prefer it down to 50%. Less power and much quieter. Grow System Environment: Temp: 75.6° RH: 53.9% VPD: 1.36 kPa

And this is it! The last week! 😲 And an early update as well! 😁 This is the last video and last photos of my girls before they were chopped and I'm quite happy right now! Almost everything went how I planned it, which is great 💪 I lowered the lights (5cm) and I did a good chunk of defoliation to allow more light penetration which I believe totally helped! Some of the branches got a lot of weight and could barely hold themselves (good thing they didn't break!) I also think that I should've chopped my girls last week because I got way more amber trichomes than what I originally wanted 😝 but eh, I got more weight in exchange! 😆 Oh, I also gave my girls some ice cold water! Hoping to get some extra purple! There are a lot of stuff this week, so please let me know what you all think about them! :D See you all in the next and final update! 👋

10/08/2024 Lights On! Week 8 12/08/2024 Lights On! Looking good; phattening up! Mid-day: Dimmed to 420watts The buds are right under the canopy are showing signs of slight fishtailing. Reasons for dimming light! As they start to mature dimming of the light for 2-3days is needed. They are getting bigger! Will have to raise scrog net soon for support 🙏🙌👍 14/08/2024 Lights On! Increased light to 490watts! Mid-day! Video 60fps FHD Light needs turning down Dimmed backs to 420watts!

Vamos familia, actualizamos la primera semana de floración de estas NoName de Seedstockers. La temperatura que estuvo entre los 24-26 grados y humedad dentro de los rangos correctos. Esta semana cambiamos a 12 horas luz,12 horas de oscuridad, estiraron bien y ensancharon bastante también, el color es verde sano. Se nota que los nutrientes de la marca Agrobeta hacen sus funciones. - os dejo por aquí un CÓDIGO: Eldruida Descuento para la tienda de MARS HYDRO. https://www.mars-hydro.com Hasta aquí todo, Buenos humos 💨💨💨

Hey folks, I have been checking the trichomes, and they have all glazed over white now with some turning Amber. So I am starting to flush with water. I am hoping for a 2 week flush 😀 Some of the branches are falling over with weight, hopefully a good sign. 😅

Good week of growth. Fed twice throughout the week. Couple signs of insects but hoping it's just the few fruit flies I have in the vicinity. Also continued with LST, both plants seem to like it. Growth on Alaskan purple is slow due to the shitty Amazon light overjead I believe. Seemango has a mars hydro ts1000 overtop.

Día 44 (15/07) Wow! No hay shock de trasplante! 😍💥😁 Todas las ramas se han estirado hacia arriba tras el ajuste de LST y se están formando nuevos nodos rápidamente Esta combinación de nutrientes de Lurpe + substrato de PRO-MIX HP es una maravilla 😍 Día 45 (16/07) Ayer tuvimos ola de calor (37 ºC) y han aguantado muy bien! A última hora de la tarde (cuando ya no había sol directo) les apliqué H2O en spray foliarmente para refrescar los estomas Hoy parece que vuelven las temperaturas estándar para esta época del año: 29 - 30 ºC en las horas centrales del día Riego con 1 litro de H20 pH 6,5 Día 46 (17/07) Pequeños ajustes de LST Hay algunas ramas inferiores que no se han formado / estirado mucho Lo más probable es que haga una buena limpieza este domingo, 7 días después del trasplante, para dejar solo los brotes por encima del 4º nudo Día 47 (18/07) Riego con 0,5 litro de H20 pH 6,5 Este domingo (día 50) haré limpieza de partes bajas y tal vez también de nuevo topping en las 4-6 ramas principales 😁 Día 48 (19/07) Día de muchísimo calor con 37 ºC. A ver como lo llevan! Riego con 0,5 litro de H20 pH 6,5 Día 49 (20/07) Para ayudarles a llevar mejor el calor de las horas centrales del día, coloca una malla de sombreo (70%) sobre el invernadero Lo cierto es que se nota que baja mucho la temperatura debajo de la malla! Van a estar más fresquitas! 😍 Riego con 0,5 litro de H20 pH 6,5 Día 50 (21/07) Training session! Hago limpieza del tercio inferior de la planta, de todas las ramas y nudos que no superan la línea del dosel marcada por el 4º nudo (1er topping) También hago topping (2º) a todas las ramas principales La idea es tener 12 ó 14 colas principales para que no se hagan muy altas De paso saco unos cuantos clones de las ramas inferiores eliminadas 😁💥 Para superar el estrés, hago las siguientes aplicaciones y riego: - Riego con 1 Litro de Té Vegetativo de Lurpe Solutions. Preparación: 24 horas con bomba de aire (oxigenación) con ingredientes: Green Sunrise 8 ml/L + Insect Frass 16 ml/L + Hummus Lombriz 8 ml/L + Melaza 1 ml/L + Kelp Hidrolizado 0,25 g/L - Aplicación foliar Kelp hidrolizado de Lurpe Solutions a 0,25 ml/l 💦Nutrients by Lurpe Solutions - www.lurpenaturalsolutions.com 🌱Substrate PRO-MIX HP BACILLUS + MYCORRHIZAE - www.pthorticulture.com/en/products/pro-mix-hp-biostimulant-plus-mycorrhizae

- Week 6 - ----- Day 36 ----- No feeding today as it was tomorrow so nutrient line up isn't up yet. I'll do that tomorrow. Ladies are perfect, I can't wait. less than 30 days away. ----- Day 37 ----- Today is feeding but back left is behind the other 3 again, gave the other 3 500ml of tap water (10ppm) to prevent turgor pressure loss while back left dries up. Should be feeding in 3-4 hours. 23L 1100-1500ppm (new feeding, so ppm end is not known atm) 6.4 pH Plants are insane, big Bertha has become middle Bertha as the other stems have fattened up quickly. Speaking of which plants are in bulk period, 3~ weeks left so it's an exciting time to watch them fatten up. **UPDATE** Fed at 1000ppm 23L 6.4pH The removal of FloraNova Bloom, and letting the chelated Diamond Nectar go to work on the molasses brings down the "accountable" parts by the machine I use. 1000ppm is full strength on all fertilizers being used. I might add more molassses in the future and bring it up to 2ml/L, and maybe a smidge of epsom salts next feeding via foliar or direct feeding after I do some research. No more KoolBloom liquid, KoolBloom powder begins and she's a strong one. ----- Day 38 ----- Yesterday back left plant has me unnecessarily anxious. It didn't need watering till 2 hours before lights off. What I did is fed the other 3 90% of the feeding, and only gave back left 10% (closed the irrigation heads till the end of feeding). I'm HOPING it was the plant transitioning from pre-bulk flower to bulk-flower stage, and maybe it slowed down photosynthesis to concentrate on hormonal changes. I dont know I'm anxious and just talkin out loud. I'll know within 72 hours if there's a major issue with back left. Plant looks fine, i'm just paranoid. Pictures later today around mid light cycle. Buds are getting insanely fat. **Update** Was bored. Here's some wicked shots. Still 25-27~ days left and its big bulk time. Can't wait to see them at the end. ----- Day 39 ----- Everything is great. Feeding late tonight or potentially tomorrow depending on back left plant. I want to make sure bottom center of the root zone has dried out and doesn't begin to mold before I water again. This will also help prevent fungus gnats in the soil. I'll keep the other 3 away from turgor pressure loss, but they got 90% of the feeding last time so I expect them to dry by the time back left is. *** Update *** Now the other 3 plants who were faster on water intake than back left yesterday have slowed down. Weed growing knowledge at a Horticultural greenhouse scientific repeatable level is pure fucking garbage. I have 6~ books and checked dozens of sites and there was major conflicting info on water intake. That's the problem with cannabis, it was illegal for so damn long horticulture practices and knowledge never molded or were used in the process and now it's anyone's fucking guess as to who is telling truth or is spouting bullshit bro-science. Don't even get me started on names. What a stupid god damn naming system "counter-culture" created... I'm growing wedding cake.. WEDDING CAKE? Wtf. That's stupid as shit. Give weed botanical Latin names based on appearance and technical factors PLEASE!!!!!! If I could name this plant it would be (Cannibas v. hybrid 'multa-magnum-fragum-gemmae-dulcis') why? It's due to it being a; Cannabis plant, hybrid variety 'multiple big bud strawberry candy' showing off multiple long bud stems smelling of candy, Is that more convoluted and arrogant than Wedding cake? YES, it is. Is it better? YES fuck your stupid wedding cake name. That's dumb. And you should feel bad. Still want to argue? Name it Cannabis v. Hybrid 'crustulam nuptias' THERE! Wedding cake. fuuuck! 99.99% of plant names are Latin. Anyways... back to the point... I hypothesize that there is a secondary transition portion of flower where the plant (like in stretch transition) pauses its growth to move the hormone and nutrient production to other sources. This secondary pause happens JUST before bulk session begins. This hypothesis states roughly that up until final big bulk period (last 3-4 weeks), fan leaves and sugar leaves could still be produced by the plant during a "predator" or "high weather event" situation that would cripple the plants photosynthesis for final bud/seeding production during early to mid stage flowering. Once the plant has reached adequate nutrient reserves or some other time or light cycle based trigger, it removes the hormonal/internal production/ability of sugar/fan leaves still being potentially produced out of the internode stem cells and fully stops that ability and concentrates 100% of growth on bud structure and protection of bud structures through THC/CBA/CBC/CBD etc. (Im a little tipsy, can't spell cannabinoid leave me alone...) production. Tonight I will at 30 minutes before lights off be judging the water requirements during sleep of each plant to prevent turgor pressure loss, and to allow each plant to finish this transition and get back to major water intake by feeding tomorrow morning. It's insanely obvious somethings changed. I Was worried that leaving back left plant with stagnant water in the bottom saucer (pot doesn't sit directly in the water but is 3 inches above it) had released mold spores and started destroying the root mass of the back left plant but: 1) No obvious plant death signs, weakness or other aspects of it being a slow death from bottom up. 2) The other plants did the same damn thing within 48 hours.... and the back left plant is by far the largest and gets the most "light" due to its size hence it would most likely (HYPOTHESIS) finish its secondary cycle a bit faster due to just volume and weight. Listen i'm not gonna say this is all 100% correct knowledge, It's based off feeling and "knowing" plant cycles as a greenhouse certified Horticultural Technician. Repeated efforts to grow and replicating situations that created these things over and over is the real proof and will come in time. One major benefit is the fact I WILL be re-flowering these for the VERY LEAST 3 full flowering cycles as long as they don't die during flower to veg transition. I will be getting them THC tested EVERY SINGLE flower cycle to prove without a doubt the "maximum maturity" possible of a weed plant re-veg flower cycling, just like how we know by the 5th or 6th successive clone, the DNA will deteriorate and the grow will be stunted or a lesser bud high and yield. God I fucking ramble when I'm bored and tipsy. ----- Day 40 ----- Fed at 1350ppm 6.3pH 23L Plants are doing great. **Update** Little fun video from mid light cycle. Roughly 20-25 days left. Will finish at 30% amber 70% cloudy and will cut branch by branch as they are done, not in a rush to do 1 single cut and will let them survive to re-veg easier and less stressful. ----- Day 41 ----- Easy day. Here's some pics. Just basically have to watch the grass grow today. ----- Day 42 ----- Big photo day, used ruler for most shots. End of beginning of bulk, big bulk starts tomorrow. Could probably feed late night tonight but I'm going to just give 500-750 ml of water depending on roots needs before lights off. Tomorrow will be a big feed for first day of week 7. Tropicanna Glookies tips on back right are beginning to darken and become purple. I am hoping this whole plant turns purple in last 2-3 weeks. We will see. **Update** Back right plant is starting to turn purple and FAST. Pretty awesome.

Hallo Freunde 👋 Do-Si-Dos F1 Auto von Zamnesia 🍀💙🍀ist 56 Tage Alt! Sie hat sich wunderschön entwickelt und ist so gut wie fertig! Harte harzige buds kleben wie patex,fruchtig süßer Citrus Duft einfach lecker 😋👍 Ich glaube ohne den Stress in der Statue würde der Strain noch besser performen und wird auch noch einmal in grow bags gezüchtet! Keep Green and grow High ✌️🍀💙🍀

Die Ladies haben einen ersten Stretch durchlaufen, davor hab ich noch ein paar Blätter entnommen. Ich Versuche mich sehr in Zurückhaltung und will auch nichts trainieren, ich möchte erstmal an sehen wie die Z-ups in meinem Setup wachsen. Davor hatte ich eine guava Auto von Fastbuds mit relativ wenig Training zu einem top Ergebnis gebracht und um den begrenzten Platz nicht zu überreizen war das mit 3 Pflanzen mal so der Plan 😅 z-up #1 wächst gut, hab die erste nodie entfernt, war nicht stark genug. Wächst bisschen breiter und geht langsam Richtung Vorblüte Z-up #2 wächst super. Hat eine tolle Struktur, zeigt aber bei gleicher Düngemenge leichte überdüngung an den Blattspitzen, wird beim nächsten Mal gießen nur mit Wasser und Nematoden gegoßen (wahrscheinlich alle 3 profilaktisch) ist in der Vorblüte Mandarin Panties, ist ne süße kleine buschige indica, schaut aber zufrieden aus und wird dann wie alle anderen Ladies in der 2ten Blütewoche gelollipopped 🍭 Steht kurz vor der Vorblüte

Ended up with 13.5 oz wet so I’m expecting 5-6 oz dry which would be awesome! I actually snapped the main stem during LST and I taped it back together, it healed and ended up being my biggest cola!

Eai comunidade GD, sejam todos bem vindos a mais uma semana dessa bela menina. Essa semana tive alguns problemas com falta de nutrientes, as folhas deram uma amarelada, agora corrigi na rega e acredito que daqui uns 3 dias já teremos a melhora. Os botões estão crescendo bastante e o cheiro está incrível, não vejo a hora de experimentar essa maravilha!!!🍌✅

Week 6 Day 36 Ladys doing good just trainwreck showing some signs of stress, maybe the soil is to hot. She got twisted leaves on the top. Light is back at 100% again cause the other lady's are healthy, I thought it was Lightstress but now, I think it's a root problem or a pH. I am watering with just pH water since last week. They should got enough nutes till harvest. Right now I can't do anything, and this is boring 😅. Can't wait to test this Bluedream 😍 my favorite strain. But also the Cinderella Jack from Dutch Passion, she is extremely bushy but the smallest right now. She's started flowering since 3 days, I hope she gonna stretch and get big Day 38 Trainwreck is a monster she's so huge, but got that stress with the twisted leaves on the top. All lady's showing a little sign of mute burns but it's OK. This should be gone in 2 weeks when the buds starten to fat up. Day 42 Dimmed the light at 60% again and raised her 20 cm up All lady's showed signs of lightburn or the soil is really to hot. But trainwreck recovered a little bit. Stretching is over just Cinderella starting now she's a late bloomer but she gonna be huge, her mainstem is the thickest. Day 45 Ladys fatten up the buds now next. Cinderella stretched so much in the last 3 Days, I think she gonna be the biggest. Unfortunately I haven't enough place for her to get the most potential out of her.

Day 105- her last day on earth. I thank her for what she is about to give us. I saw scattered amber trichomes so decided it was time. I am very excited about this harvest. I think she is going to be top quality. Her flowers are dense, heavy and large 😍 What a pleasure she has been this far. Give her plenty of light, a big pot, don't overdo it on the nutrients and this is what she gives me. I didn't even train her at all! The wires are to support her branches before they snapped off due to weight.
