🌱 Wieder mal einen schönen Sonntag & zweiten Advent für die, die es betrifft 😊 🌿 Wochenupdate Die Woche war wieder bisschen was los… leider =D Ich versuche wieder alles so transparent wie möglich zu machen 😊 Zu Beginn habe ich meine Lösung wie gewohnt manuell mit hochwertigen Apera-Messinstrumenten kontrolliert angemischt und behandelt. Das lief auch immer perfekt, bis es leicht überhand genommen hat 😅 Ich habe locker 7-mal am Tag gemessen und dementsprechend anschließend gereinigt… Nach ein wenig Überlegen habe ich mich dann schließlich doch für einen Bluelab Guardian entschieden. Anfangs wollte ich nicht so viel in reinen Komfort investieren, aber mir persönlich wurde es einfach zu viel, weil ich zu oft wissen möchte, was los ist =D Letzte Woche hatte ich ja bereits erwähnt, dass ich den Stretch-Peak anhand der EC- und pH-Kurven bestimmen konnte. Das lief schon alles über den Bluelab. Da ich wirklich gerne datenbasierte Entscheidungen treffe, habe ich ab diesem Moment weiter fleißig runtertrainiert und die Werte beobachtet um den richtigen Zeitpunkt zum sortieren zu erwischen . Der Trend war dann aber erst mal, dass sie einfach wie verrückt weiterziehen 😄 Am 4. Tag bei diesem Messverhalten wäre es fast passiert… Der Uptake hat über eine Dunkelphase so dermaßen zugenommen, dass ich es mir nicht mehr erklären konnte (Peak-Messung × 2,5). Fakt war aber: Das Reservoir war von den Werten her wirklich in einen kritischen Bereich gerutscht und ich wollte das ändern. Warum das so war, dachte ich mir: kann ich auch später klären… schließlich haben die Ladys Hunger =D Also habe ich wie immer 30 L Top-Up berechnet, gemischt und auf etwa 4,30 mS/cm eingestellt, damit ich die niedrigen RESS-Werte wieder nach oben bekomme. Zum Glück habe ich auch meine Momente, man mag’s nicht glauben 😄 Ich habe random beim Abpumpen mal den Drain gemessen, weil es mir keine Ruhe gelassen hat – und siehe da: 1,9 mS/cm. Die Sonde hatte sich über die Wochen ordentlich in einen Wurzelballen geschoben und dadurch zwar konstante Werte geliefert, aber eben in einer Wurzel-Biozone und nicht im freien Draftwasser. Das klingt erst mal nicht dramatisch , aber wenn mir das nicht aufgefallen wäre, hätten die Damen rund 24 h in einem hochtoxischen Bereich gestanden… Das wären sicher ein Ordentlicher stepback gewesen... Und natürlich passiert das Ganze in einer Phase, in der ich ihnen so wenig Stress wie möglich machen möchte 😄 Ich habe jetzt aus grobem Filterschwamm kleine „Hüllen“ gebaut, die aktuell ihren Dienst tun und die Wurzeln fernhalten. Drain-Messen ist ab jetzt auf jeden Fall SOP 😄 Da der Guardian erst während des Runs eingezogen ist, konnte ich ihn leider nicht ordentlich verbauen.. 🌿 Pflanzenstatus & Training Zur Sicherheit gehe ich wieder Back to Basics und trainiere so lange weiter, bis der Rebound-Stretch sichtbar nachlässt 😊 Das sollte jetzt die Tage geschehen. Den nächsten Run gestalte ich hier definitiv anders 😄 Ich brauch doch meine Werte fürs Timing… Anschließend nur noch die Meshes bestücken, langsam am Klima schrauben – und wachsen lassen 😊 ⚙️ System Bis auf die Panne mit der Sonde läuft das System nach wie vor perfekt. Am Vorgehen mit berechneten, gezielten Lösungen hat sich nichts geändert 😊 800 PPFD 1,0 kPa VPD 700–800 ppm CO₂ im Durchschnitt 💚 Special Mention Da geht auf jeden Fall was 😄 Ich glaube, an dem Punkt kann man echt davon sprechen, dass sie durch ist. Sie ist nicht ganz so gut entwickelt wie ihre Schwestern – aber trotzdem eine sehr vitale Pflanze, die sich echt zurückgekämpft hat 😄💚 Danke fürs Lesen und eine schöne Woche euch 😊!

The plants are starting to swell with dense buds and a pungent earthy aroma. I harvested one blueberry I had in a container. Had a bit of bud rot, probably 5%. None the less the buds were ready, heavy tight dense nugs. Wet weight trimmed off the stem was 978gs. Do si dos is almost done. She is small in comparison to the other plants, but she will be ready soon and looks like to be incredibly potent. Everything else is coming along, Fingers crossed for good weather.

Que pasa familia, actualizamos la semana de la farm cheese, la trasplantamos a su maceta definitiva, utilizamos sustrato Plagron. Ph controlado en 6,5 humedad algo baja pero pronto pasaremos a floración, temperatura ideal, el led hace si función y aparte no da calor. Los nutrientes los seguimos echando en dosis muy bajas para que no sobre fertilize. Hasta la semana que viene fumetillas.

Had to do a root wash, again, also cut some really bad roots of, also saw lots of new healthy root growths since last week, upping ORP and wash last week seemed to have helped. Overall still very unhappy but that is on me, learned that prepping a plant in DWC and then transplant it to NFT is not a good idea, better do it as usual directly in NFT so that the roots follow the stream better, usually at this time there would be at least 3x the amount of roots. Also switched back to the 10cm diameter tube, will stick with that one from now on, very good experiences in the past and this one does not, maybe RH does not rise enough in a 16cm diameter tube. Also changed the light cycle to 18/6 from 24/0, in the timelapse I see phases where the leafs droop slightly and come back, kind of like the night cycle but less, seems to me like the plant wants to go to "sleep" even tough it was raised in 24/0 and I have good experiences with 18/6. Values are average of the day.

On the final stretch. Bug issues seem to be under control. All plants were flushed last week. This lady had 9l of dechlorinated water @6.8 pass through her. Checked pH in the run off and was spot on. All the buds are very dense. The way I have trained her has meant rather the some tall colas I have lots of smaller along the same branch as I kept the canopy wide and flat. I can't believe it's been this long! I started this grow after seeing @silky_smooth doing amazing art. So I decided to main line and train 16 colas.. second grow and probably way too ambitious. I have learned so much from her taking 4 clones and finding my way with my nutes. I hope I have not failed her or the great genetics Barney's Farm have produced. I had a vision of what I wanted her to look like and I feel I got what I set out for. Lessons learned. Slow down on nutes. Less is more sometimes! Plastic pots suck ass... At least 25l ones do. If I ever grow in this pot again I will amend my substrate as the drainage seemed way off with just biobizz light mix. Lights... 100% on the dimmer is not always best..(thanks @Mrs_Larimar) Bugs... They are bastards and I will start to feed nematodes into my final pot each grow from now on. And lots more.... We will keep her on water for the rest of this week then I will leave her to what's left for the last week. Thanks for looking if you managed to read this far thanks. Stay safe😷😷 Happy grows🌿🌱🌿

Changing reservoirs whenever pH becomes unstable. Usually after around a week and a half. Seeing some nice buds developing. Found a ball that exploded when I touched it. Going to cut this plant down probably to keep it from pollinating others completely.

NOTES: This week I'm starting to flush with only water and Final Solution -nutrient, so emptying the tanks and refilling them as doing so. I'll try to keep the pH at around 5,8-6,2. Overall everything looks pretty good and I can't wait to harvest. 🙏 Day99 (23.1.) Took some pics and videos for the diary with my shitty camera. Day100 (24.1.) Emptying and refilling all nutrient tanks with fresh solution as mentioned above. Day101 (25.1.) Increased the dark-/night-time by 30min so now the lights are 11,5h On / 12,5 Off. Day102 (26.1.) Day103 (27.1.) Reducing 30min of light again so now my timer is set to 11h On / 13h Off. I also moved the lights a bit higher for the rest of the grow, about 10-15cm higher than before. Day104 (28.1.) Day105 (29.1.)

I think they have finished stretching as their starting to produce bud sites, so hopefully they stay around this size as it’s the sweet spot for me, not too small but not huge trees, their still just under 1m tall.

Cut screen down now as all stems hardened and in place. Had a good shuffle around and as the Dos Si Dos 33 height was taking over the rest ive raised my lights and put the other 3 on top of boxes to raise up more level. Really pleased with everything, had to do a little late trimming as plants are all so bushy but now everything set for them to just grow freely untouched. Starting to fatten up and got plenty of top bud sights fingers crossed in for a good yeild and so far the quality is there. This Purple Punch has come on really well and is showing no issues and looks to be really healthy and strong
