DAY 57 - 10/11/24 - Everything is looking good. I am noticing the bud sites are growing taller and thicker. I rotated and placed the plants for optimal light. I lowered the light a bit more. The feed is flowing, but very slowly. I wonder if there is a clog? The individual reses are full, the coco is wet. I am unsure what this all means. NIGHT (12-2AM) AVE: T 74.0 H 53.3 V 1.34 DAY AVE: T 76.2 H 53.5 V 1.43 DAY 58 - 10/12/24 - Rotated plants, res moving on down. Plants feeding, loving life. Temps a little higher than I would like. I spread and tucked the plants. They are making great progress. There is no more burnt rubber band smell. It has given way to a sweet, kind of citrus, bubblegum, cotton candy scent. All throughout. The bud sites are swelling and blasting out terpenes. Plants are due for another haircut in the next few days. Lots of moisture and stickiness deep within the plants. Top leaves are all healthy dark green, some slight nute burn at the very tips like I want, some slight dry burn spots on the already noted plants, no changes there. I still plan on cutting all the gross leave off. Maybe later today?. The bottom leaves, the newest, light protected growth are all bright light green, like the weird extra little baby arms on the scientist in that one episode of The Venture Bros. Some of the random “bigger” leaves that I left last time are now jutting through the middle of the plant, searching for light. I am trying to tuck more mobile lower branches on top of the thicker and more rigid branches. This will expose the lower sites to more light, and gently bend the bigger stalks until they accommodate the smaller ones. I believe the flowers are finally starting to effect my allergies. Exciting!! And kind of annoying, but maybe this way I will build up a tolerance now that I know it’s coming. I will start additional allergy medicine to mitigate the sneezing. I want the feed to run almost empty before I refill. Res has bout 1.5-2.5 gals remaining. The individual reses are still filling. When the feed is nearly empty, hopefully later tonight, I am going to check the sponge spout for clogs. I might dump the nute feed out and wash out the res. I am considering working the Kelp down to nothing. I need to do some research on solutions for this or if running kelp through a hydro system is just a bad idea altogether. NIGHT (12-2AM) AVE: T 72.5 H 60.1 V 1.09 DAY AVE: T 76.1 H 53.5 V 1.43 DAY 59 - 10/13/24 - I dumped the nute feed when there was about a gallon left. I tossed and replaced with 1 gal of pure, PH’d down water. I tried to wash the sides of the res down. I let that run down for a few hours then replaces with 6 gals of regular feed. I am also exploring the Dynamic Wind settings. I want to reduce the stress on my fans. New Feed Mix: 1 Gal: Runclean: 0.4ml Silica: 1ml Kelp: 1ml Cal/Mag: 5ml CropSalt A: 5.1g OR 37ml CropSalt B: 2.6g OR 37ml FEED: 6 gal water, 2.4ml CS RC, 6ml Silica, 6ml Kelp, 30ml CalMag, 210ml CS A/B Bloom. NIGHT (12-2AM) AVE: T 71.8 H 56.1 V 1.17 DAY AVE: T 74.7 H 51.6 V 1.42 DAY 60 - 10/14/24 - Spent a lot of time over the past few days defoliating and trimming fan leaves. I hope I left enough. I don’t think the growth has slowed down and I do not notice any signs of stress. I believe the plants are nearly done stretching, now they should swell, and then condense as harvest comes nearer. Less than a month now. I also moved the vornado van out of the front right vent towards the back of the room. Then I closed the vent. Temps are noticeably cooler. The inline and exhaust fans are can work a little lower now. NIGHT (12-2AM) AVE: T 72.1 H 54.4 V 1.22 DAY AVE: T 75.7 H 50.1 V 1.51 DAY 61 - 10/15/24 - Plants are drinking heavy again. I meant to mix up more feed last night, but I had to prioritize a gig that popped up. I fed a gallon of water between feeds. Not quite a flush, more of a nutrient stretch. I added 6 gals of proper feed in the early afternoon. I am very happy with how the plants look and smell and stick. I love the Autopots, I love Cropsalt, and Dynomyco, and I especially love Speedrun Seeds. Good companies. Good products. Noticed a small leak, leading to an autopot individual res overflow on Back Right. I think I fixed it, but I need to double check tomorrow AM. The water blowing over the water will help cool the tent at least. The tent smells so good, the flowers are getting so pretty. FEED: 1 gal tap water, no PH FEED: 6 gal water, 2.4ml CS RC, 6ml Kelp, 6ml Silica, 30ml CalMag, 210ml CS A/B Bloom, PH’d TO 5.6. NIGHT (12-2AM) AVE: T 70.7 H 55.2 V 1.14 DAY AVE: T 74.3 H 52.6 V 1.37 DAY 62 - 10/16/24 - The leak seems resolved. Feeding normally now. A little moist in the tent from all the water evaporating. But everything is otherwise fine. I rotated and tucked and measured the light (no change recently). The feed lines seem good. The flower is packing and stacking. I wonder if it would be even more so if I got the veg nutes right. I assume the plant would have more plant to utilize in Flower. Maybe it would pack more and higher. I wonder about the difference in density. For my next run I am going to run 4 of the dame plants, but grow them with different methods: no touching, Mainline, LST + Defoliating, and Topping + LST + Defoliating. I may choose slightly different methods, but this is where my curiosity is taking me right now. Ok. There was another slight leak. I believe it is fixed now. I may want to consider taping the lines closed for my next run. Autopots are surely the way to go, but they do have weaknesses that can be mitigated with proper forethought, NIGHT (12-2AM) AVE: T 69.3 H 57.7 V 1.03 DAY AVE: T 74.2 H 52.6 V 1.37 DAY 63 - 10/17/24 - The leak may have not been 100% capped. It should be now. I rotated and tucked the plants. Raised the light 2 clicks. New feed. NO MORE Silica or Kelp. Only CalMag and Bloom Until Cake (last two weeks) where I will drop the CalMag. FEED: 6 gal water, 2.4ml CS RC, 30ml CalMag, 210ml CS A/B Bloom, PH’d TO 5.4.

Week 6 for AK Triple Haze by SSSC She's definitely my shortest auto that's outside ATM but anyway her main cola is bulking up nicely. Aiming for her to be done by week 9... but lets see😇 Still no signs of her needing any extra nutrition @naturelivingsoiluk @naturelivingsoil is definitely keeping their word of water only feeding😍 Was watered once last week. No pest issue either with her! The leaf rub atm giving her some light hazy smells which is appealing. Already looking forward to seeing how she's doing in a weeks time😍 BRING ON THE BULKING!

FBT 2307 has been killing it. She got some nice big colas on her. I switched to ph water a few days ago. I will be looking to harvest in about 10 days roughly. I did add orange essential oil to ph water. Dunno if it will effect anything. She grew great under the Mars Hydro FC4800 light in the Athena blended line nutrition. Thank you Mars Hydro. Athena, and fast buds. 🤜🏻🤛🏻🌱🌱🌱 Thank you grow diaries community for the 👇likes👇, follows, comments, and subscriptions on my YouTube channel👇. ❄️🌱🍻 Happy Growing 🌱🌱🌱 https://youtube.com/channel/UCAhN7yRzWLpcaRHhMIQ7X4g

The final Week, before harvest! She has some massive towering buds! 2.5 gallons of water is lasting this plant 5-6 days before drying out, and ready for more.. She was harvested instead of being watered!

In the end she went longer than expected but that's cool 😎 super dense buds . I really enjoyed this strain. Very nice smoke. Gromie's use the promo code GROWEED for a 15% discount on any Fast Buds purchase.

📆 Week 15, 12-18 August 2024 12-18 Aug - Observed and let the plant grow. 13 Aug - Turned lights down to 50% power. 📑 It’s been another week and no signs of slowing down. Pablo continues to grow! Her sativa genetics are really showing. I’ve turned the light power down to 50% hoping this will help to mature the plant. It is looking like another good week of flower will be appropriate here. Lets see just how big she can get. 🍶 14 Aug nutrient solution changed 🍽️ 14 Aug feeding schedule updated 💧 Using reverse osmosis water with EC/TDS at 0 🐉 Nutrient Solution EC 1.0 at 74 degree F 🔆 Light power at 50%, DLI 35 canopy coverage at 12hrs 😤 Using PYPABL, Air Pump, 400GPH That is it for this week. Thanks for the look, read and stopping by.

Week 6: here we go! So been smooth ride so far only had to do an emergency lst to the runtz to prevent her from getting burned by the light hopefully it will not be so stressful for her. The pineapple express is also going for the stretch also. Only the blue cheese are contented with her hight no stretching! But she worries me a bit with her leaves as she seems to grow only 3 fingers, hopefully nothing bad though!

Day 17 and she is growing nicely, but hope the side branching will pick up a bit for training. Keep freaking out thinking I have mites again but I don’t see them on my leaves. Plus I think I have grasshoppers nibbling on all my gals leaves. As of Saturday Fozzy Bear (we wanted it Fozzie but official paper work says otherwise) joined the family and his new big brother Buddy. He has already grown a few inches since we got him but god is he ever cute, and god bless Buddy for taking his playful shit since

2nd net is up. Early bud formations are promising. holding up to the extremes pretty well, some leaves taking minor damage, but overall, she is holding up, gave her 1 night at 50F see how she would react, stressful. Not advised as it messes with her metabolism, but I want to see if it triggers any anthocyanin response. Love to see her purp up but no signs yet. Homework. If Rubisco activity is impaired and it cannot properly function or regenerate its substrate, the plant's leaves are likely to turn a pale green or lime green, a condition known as chlorosis. Essentially, Rubisco activity is highly regulated and susceptible to various environmental and metabolic factors that can cause it to become inhibited, leading to an apparent failure in RuBP regeneration due to a lack of consumption. Rubisco regeneration is intrinsically linked to nitrogen supply because Rubisco is a major sink for nitrogen in plants, typically accounting for 15% to over 25% of total leaf nitrogen. The regeneration phase itself consumes nitrogen through the synthesis of the Rubisco enzyme and associated proteins (like Rubisco activase), and overall nitrogen status heavily influences the efficiency of RuBP regeneration. RuBisCO is a very large enzyme that constitutes a significant proportion (up to 50%) of leaf soluble protein and requires large investments in nitrogen. Insufficient nitrogen supply limits the plant's ability to produce adequate amounts of RuBisCO, thereby limiting the overall capacity for photosynthesis and carbon fixation. Maintaining the optimal, slightly alkaline pH is crucial for the proper function and regeneration of Rubisco. Deviations in either direction (too high or too low) disrupt the enzyme's structure, activation state, and interaction with its substrates, leading to decreased activity and impaired RuBP regeneration. (LIME GREEN CHLOROSIS) Structural Component: Nitrogen is an essential building block for all proteins, and the sheer abundance of the Rubisco protein makes it the single largest storage of nitrogen in the leaf. Synthesis and Activity: Adequate nitrogen supply is crucial for the synthesis and maintenance of sufficient Rubisco enzyme and Rubisco activase (Rca), the regulatory protein responsible for maintaining Rubisco's active state. Nitrogen deficiency leads to a decrease in the content and activity of both Rubisco and Rca, which in turn limits the maximum carboxylation rate, Vmax, and the rate of RuBP regeneration Jmax, thus reducing overall photosynthetic capacity. Nitrogen Storage and Remobilization: Rubisco can act as a temporary nitrogen storage protein, which is degraded to remobilize nitrogen to other growing parts of the plant, especially under conditions of nitrogen deficiency or senescence. Nitrogen Use Efficiency (NUE): The allocation of nitrogen to Rubisco is a key determinant of a plant's photosynthetic nitrogen use efficiency (PNUE). In high-nitrogen conditions, plants may accumulate a surplus of Rubisco, which may not be fully activated, leading to a lower PNUE. Optimizing the amount and activity of Rubisco relative to nitrogen availability is a target for improving crop NUE. Photorespiration and Nitrogen Metabolism: Nitrogen metabolism is also linked to the photorespiration pathway (which competes with carboxylation at the Rubisco active site), particularly in the reassimilation of ammonia released during the process. To increase RuBisCO regeneration, which refers to the process of forming the CO2 acceptor molecule Ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate (RuBP) during photosynthesis, the primary methods involve optimizing the levels and activity of Rubisco activase (Rca) and enhancing the performance of other Calvin-Benson-Bassham (CBB) cycle enzymes. Biochemical and Environmental Approaches: Optimize Rubisco Activase (Rca) activity: Rca is a crucial chaperone protein that removes inhibitory sugar phosphates, such as CA1P (2-carboxy-D-arabinitol 1-phosphate), from the Rubisco active site, thus maintaining its catalytic competence. •Ensure optimal light conditions: Rca is light-activated via the chloroplast's redox status. Adequate light intensity ensures Rca can effectively maintain Rubisco in its active, carbamylated state. •Maintain optimal temperature: Rca is highly temperature-sensitive and can become unstable at moderately high temperatures (e.g., above 35°C/95F° in many C3 plants), which decreases its ability to activate Rubisco. Maintaining temperatures within the optimal range for a specific plant species is important. •Optimize Mg2+ concentration: Mg2+ is a key cofactor for both Rubisco carbamylation and Rca activity. In the light, Mg2+ concentration in the chloroplast stroma increases, promoting activation. •Manage ATP/ADP ratio: Rca activity depends on ATP hydrolysis and is inhibited by ADP. Conditions that maintain a high ATP/ADP ratio in the chloroplast stroma favor Rca activity. Enhance Calvin-Benson-Bassham (CBB) cycle enzyme activity: The overall rate of RuBP regeneration can be limited by other enzymes in the cycle. •Increase SBPase activity: Sedoheptulose-1,7-bisphosphatase (SBPase) is a key regulatory enzyme in the regeneration pathway, and increasing its activity can enhance RuBP regeneration and overall photosynthesis. •Optimize other enzymes: Overexpression of other CBB cycle enzymes such as fructose-1,6-bisphosphate aldolase (FBA) and triose phosphate isomerase (TPI) can also help to balance the metabolic flux and improve RuBP regeneration capacity. Magnesium ions, Mg2+, are specifically required for Rubisco activation because the cation plays a critical structural and chemical role in forming the active site: A specific lysine residue in the active site must be carbamylated by a CO2 molecule to activate the enzyme. The resulting negatively charged carbamyl group then facilitates the binding of the positively charged Mg2+ion. While other divalent metal ions like Mn2+ can bind to Rubisco, they alter the enzyme's substrate specificity and lead to dramatically lower activity or a higher rate of the non-productive oxygenation reaction compared to Mg2+, making them biologically unfavorable in the context of efficient carbon fixation. The concentration of Mg2+ in the chloroplast stroma naturally increases in the light due to ion potential balancing during ATP synthesis, providing a physiological mechanism to ensure the enzyme is activated when photosynthesis is possible. At the center of the porphyrin ring, nestled within its nitrogen atoms, is a Magnesium ion (Mg2+). This magnesium ion is crucial for the function of chlorophyll, and without it, the pigment cannot effectively capture and transfer light energy. Mg acts as a cofactor: Mg2+ binds to Rubisco after an activator CO2 molecule, forming a catalytically competent complex (Enzyme-CO2-Mg2+). High light + CO2) increases demand: Under high light (60 DLI is a very high intensity, potentially saturating) and high CO2, the plant's capacity for photosynthesis is high, and thus the demand for activated Rubisco and the necessary Mg2+ cofactor increases. Mg deficiency becomes limiting: If Mg2+ is deficient under these conditions, the higher levels of Rubisco and Rubisco activase produced cannot be fully activated, leading to lower photosynthetic rates and potential photo-oxidative damage. Optimal range: Studies show that adequate Mg2+ application can enhance Rubisco activation and stabilize net photosynthetic rates under stress conditions, but the required concentration is specific to the experimental setup. Monitoring is key: The most effective approach in a controlled environment is to monitor the plant's physiological responses e.g., leaf Mg2+ concentration, photosynthetic rate, Rubisco activation state, and adjust the nutrient solution/fertilizer to maintain adequate levels, rather than supplementing a fixed "extra" amount. In practice, this means ensuring that Mg2+ is not a limiting factor in the plant's standard nutrient solution when pushing the limits with high light and CO2. Applying Mg2+ through foliar spray is beneficial to Rubisco regeneration, particularly in alleviating the negative effects of magnesium (Mg) deficiency and high-temperature stress (HTS). While Mg can be leached from soil, within the plant it is considered a mobile nutrient, particularly in the phloem. Foliar-applied Mg is quickly absorbed by the leaves and can be translocate to other plant parts, including new growth and sink organs. Foliar application of: NATURES VERY OWN MgSO4 @ 15.0g L-1 in a spray bottle. Foliar sprays are often recommended as a rapid rescue measure for existing deficiencies or as a supplement during critical growth stages, when demand for Mg is high. Application in the early morning or late evening can improve absorption and prevent leaf burn. The starting point [of creativity] is curiosity: pondering why the default exists in the first place. We’re driven to question defaults when we experience vuja de, the opposite of déjà vu. Déjà vu occurs when we encounter something new, but it feels as if we’ve seen it before. Vuja de is the reverse—we face something familiar, but we see it with a fresh perspective that enables us to gain new insights into old problems. Come walk in the enchanted forest.

Looking good ✌️🏻

This week, spent a little more time on the garden, Transplant, microbes on the soil, new 20 litres pot, and every day bending, to mantain an homogeneous canopy ... Fed some Green Explosion again because i want a little more branching , but im switching next week to Flowering nutes, but imma keep Veg nutes because autos seem to keep growing more when switchin ... But heyy im new with autos hahaha lets see what happens.... The plant is soo healthy at the moment :) --------------------- Micro Vita : Applied 6.60 grams for the 20 litres of soil, recommended is between 2-5g per 10l .... TopVeg: 2,5 ml when applied alone and 2 ml/l when used with Deep Underground or Green Explosion. Green Explosion: 0,5-1ml/l, always with TopVeg because of PH balance Deep Underground : From 1ml/L first weeks, and until now, 2ml/l. Irrigations : Everyday in the morning, alternating 1/2 with water and the other with nutes, but if the plan is dark dark green im irrigatin only water so id would be 1/3 in that case. #####Top Veg always balances the PH so im never using boosters without it (they have high ph like 8 - 10 ) --------------------- Take care GD !!! Good vibez...

July 5 - other crops on the lateral branches, growing strong every day 💚🔥

Start of week 3 blueberry is flowering and the stretch is almost over. The seedlings are growing nicely.the box got up to 100f this week during mini heat wave had to put ice blocks in rez to lower temp down from 80f. I look forward to the 3 other new strains I’m running. My GSC seedling is looking a little pale I should have waited longer to change rez over to bloom nutes. I have top dressed some organic fertilizer near drip line of nutes 4-6-4 one month release. I applied to all seedlings except blueberry. I reduced blumat on gsc, ww, and ch until surface dried a little bit as my gsc was showing signs of overwatering. Gsc is starting to green back up. My bb had to nanners i plucked them I hope these are all. It could be from the high temps or the one night I had a light leak. BB larger plant receving 1000 ppfd.i turn light back down a notch Gsc leaves started cupping now she’s getting just 550 along with other seedlings.will continue to monitor for improvement and ramp lights up a little later if needed as plants should grow into light.

So good watching your own plants grow. Can't wait to see her start flowering

Without many words! she's perfect! both in health and in appearance and in development!) and what is the healthy color of the leaves ?!))

11/9: They're smelling so awesome now! Like something sweet is baking in the oven!👍 Both plants are equally fat and frosty and still have a good way to go..
