End of week 7, beginning of week 8. Hopefully I have a good grasp on feeding, if not can someone please help me. I'll post my last 3 feedings. Bruce Banner watered/fed on 8/10/22 with 5ml cal mag, 7ml flora nova bloom, 3.5 ml amino acids, 6ml fish shit, 1/2 tsp great white. Mixed together it had a ph of 5.9, 939ppm and 1.9EC. Runoff had 6.3ph, 1.1 EC and 539 ppm. Also removed 52 fan leaves 8/13/22 Bruce Banner defoilated today and watered. Watering had 6.4ph, .8ec and 380ppm. Mixed 5ml cal mag, 6 ml fish shit, 1.5tsp flora nova bloom, 3.5ml amino acids and great white. Fed with 6.0ph, 936ppm and 1.9ec Runoff had 6.5ph, 569ppm and 1.2ec 8/15/22 Bruce Banner watered with 1 gallon distilled water ph'ed 5.9. The runoff had 6.5ph, 466ppm and .8ec. I fed with 5ml cal mag, 6ml fish shit, 1.5tsp flora nova bloom, 3.5ml amino acids, 1/2tsp great white, which had a 5.8ph, 966ppm and 1.9ec.

She's getting bigger, what a 😍

Veg22, riego con 3.0 EC y pH 5.9, drenaje promedio de 5.8 pH y 2.6 EC(muy bien), primer riego con Sensizym para limpiar un poco las raíces, y este será el último riego de vegetación con Voodoo Juice, Tarantula y Piranha. Se hizo una pequeña defoliación de las hojas abanico más bajas y se volvió a ajustar el LST, ya van tomando la forma final. Veg23, creciendo bien. Veg24, se mide la temperatura de las hojas 22°C y se compara con la temperatura del indoor 23°C, con una humedad de 50% RH, la calculadora arroja un valor de VPD=1.24 kpa, lo que está dentro del rango óptimo. Veg25, hoy toca una pequeña defoliación y probaré también hacer un último apical en 2 o 3 plantas a modo de prueba. Al final, tomé un gran riesgo, y hice varios apicales extra y una defoliación más grande de lo que tenía en mente, tengo fe que resultará bien 😎👌 Veg27, riego con 0.8 EC y pH 6.0, drenaje de 6.0 pH y EC 2.0, se están alimentando y creciendo bien, quedan casi 2 semanas para pasar el fotoperiodo a 12/12, espero que crezcan suficiente para esa fecha. Veg28, un par de hojas de 2 plantas presentan mordidas tipo oruga, revise y no encontré nada, aplique spray insecticida, espero no siga pasando. A parte de eso siguen creciendo bien, quedan un poco más de 10 días para el paso a 12/12.

Defoliated her a touch. Sort of disappointed the double topping didn’t work as one side is much stronger than the other—- I would of had a very even dense 6 main point canopy, but I’m rolling with 4 and 2 weak. She’s very healthy though. Just keeping up with the lower dose bloom nutes for now. ✌️💚🌿💨

Starting week 6 both plants are growing well. growing super well. I purchased some Mammoth P at my local hydro shop so I'm curious to see how this will help. Day 36- Watered with .6 mL MammothP phd to 6.4 w/100%distilled water. Also got a new camera for the grow. just wanted to do time lapse for fun so I uploaded a quick 7 hour lapse for shits and gigs👍 Day 38- Watered again with .6ml/g w/mammoth p phd @ 6.4 . Day 40- Feed with NFTG mid flower schedule. No foliar feed, I added Bloom Khaos directly to water this time around. I got a wattage meter to test the spider farm sf2000 wattage. Looks like it hits 198 which is 4 wats lower than what they claim so still pretty accurate. The plants really fucking love love this light!!

This plant just got flushed so all old salts are gone, tommorow i start watering with just finalpart at 3ml/L she will be ready one week later, 10 days max. So next update is harvest.

Definitely getting big I flipped her last week put em into 40 hrs. Of darkness then now it's the 12 and 12 ride for this healthy gal🍒

End or transition and ready to bloom!!! Stay tuned this is amaz

Hi folks,I ran out of terpinator and it seems like my last two plants are finishing way quicker,I don't knownif it is coincidence or what the story is. I chopped down the last remaining green crack,I reckon I've got somewhere between 8 and 9 ounces on it ,I'll have a final summary next week My last gelato is looking really good,I hate yo speculate but I'm thinking she has about 6 ounces on it,ide say its got between 1.5 and 2 weeks left. Happy growing guys.

Again I traveled all weekend and this time I filled the plants with a lot of water and watered the plate too with an extra liter of water, and they resisted so well that they showed several signs such as the growth and development of new leaves very green, I watered only with water, in the next watering I will put top veg fertilizer again. And so ends the third week, I'm posting a little late because of work, but whenever I can I'll post the updates here. =) peace

Nightmare having 2 plants maturing nearly 3 weeks faster than the other 2

ya no crecen mas mis bellas, comenzaron su periodo de engorde, sus flores comienzan a engordar y dar forma a este oasis con un cálido aroma.

Day 57 - Starting week 9 today and she got a good gallon and a half of water and nutes. Buds are fattening up beautifully and is smelling amazing. Looks like the stretching has pretty much stopped and now can focus on fattening up. Doing a little bit of defoliating each day and she’s been taking it well so will continue just a little at a time. Day 58 - Did some more defoliating today and that was about it. Got a couple lower bud sites that are really opened up now so hopefully I can get some growth out of them. Day 59 - Things are looking good and didn’t do much with her tonight. Removed a couple more leaves and that was about it. She’s really starting to stink up the place now and loving it. Looks and feels like she’ll be needing some water on Saturday. Day 61 - Gave her a full 2 gallons of water and nutes today, she was pretty dry. Removed a couple dead leaves as well. Buds are looking great and a couple have the pistils starting to turn yellow and shrivel but she’s still got some time left. All the trichs are mostly clear right now but quite a bit of cloudy as well. Day 62 - Nothing much to update today, just letting her do her thing but will probably start flushing her the next time she needs water. Thinking she’s got somewhere between two and three weeks left. Day 63 - It’s the end of week 9 and she’s definitely fattening up quite a bit. Looks like she’ll need some water by Wednesday so will most likely start the flush. Hard to tell in the pics, but a lot of pistils are turning orange and a lot of cloudy trichs. Still looking at about 2-3 weeks but want to run the nutes out of her and start using up what stored in the leaves.

10 week harvest in the end - diary skipped a good week. Lots of trimming, very sticky buds - finally broke my trusty trimming scissors, handle just fell apart. I'll miss them :(

One with a topping the other one just LST both huge yield!🦖 For the smell its cookie dough,lemon & diesel🍪🍋⛽️ Super sticky buds 🤩

Endlich fertig! Ich kann keine Trimmschere mehr sehen. Um bei meiner Malibu OG Gold nachzusehen, ob die obersten Buds schon so weit sind, musste ich mit der Leiter hoch steigen. Ich habe von oben nach unten geerntet und dazwischen immer so viel Zeit vergehen lassen, bis die Blüten jeweils im Optimum waren.

Turned the Autopots on, Papaya had a slight issue due being popped two days later she ain’t drinking as Much as the others, adjusted the pH in the system by getting the water out the trays, adjusting the Reservoir and opening the valve again. Pics from 18.9. Will keep ya updated. 21.09 they are bushin up nicely time to get them a fresh fade - did a pretty hard defoliation won’t be doing another until it’s before flower, will add a trellis net in about 2 weeks

Apple Pie. mmmmmm 👋Top is a clean cut, no confusion for the plant, road ahead is clear, by completely removing the main growth tip, the auxin source is eliminated. The plant permanently halts vertical growth from that main stem and immediately sends its energy and hormones to the two new, evenly spaced branches just below the cut. Fimming slightly different because a small tuft of the top growth is left behind, the auxin disruption is temporary and less severe. The plant recovers more quickly and sends its energy to multiple surrounding growth points, often creating four or more new shoots from the same spot. It will eventually regain some vertical dominance after a few weeks if left to its own devices, but with a little more LST, bending the apex to the same height as the rest of the internodes, this shatters dominance, hopefully creating around 8-9 main shoots growing at equal height once recovered and grown out. Reduced environmental intensity for now and let her focus on dealing with this new stress for a week or two. When H+ ions are added to soil, the first nutrient displaced from exchange sites is typically aluminum (Al3+), if it's present, followed by calcium (Ca2+), magnesium (Mg2+), and potassium (K+), because aluminum and these base cations have different binding strengths. The order of displacement depends on the lyotropic series, where ions with a higher positive charge and those with weaker binding strengths are displaced first. The specific order of nutrient displacement is determined by the lyotropic series, which ranks the strength with which cations are adsorbed by soil particles: Al3+: Most strongly adsorbed, so if present, it will be displaced by H+ ions, leading to increased solubility of aluminum and potential plant toxicity. Ca2+: Displaced next, as it is more strongly bound than Mg2+ or K+ but less than Al3+. Mg2+ and K+: Displaced after Ca2+. The displaced nutrients can be lost from the root zone through leaching, becoming unavailable to plants. As H+ ions increase, the proportion of acid cations (H+ and Al3+) on the exchange sites increases, while base cations (Ca2+, Mg2+, K+) decrease, resulting in a lower soil pH. The amount of photosynthesis (water splitting) directly determines the availability of H+ ions (protons) in a plant. 90% of water is for cooling of photosynthetic apparatus the other 10% is split for its H+ among others things. Carbon sugars, like glucose, do oxidize in soil through a process primarily driven by microorganisms, which break down these sugars for energy. This oxidation converts the sugars into carbon dioxide (CO2) through cellular respiration, a key part of the soil carbon cycle, though some carbon may also be incorporated into soil organic matter. The rate and extent of sugar oxidation depend on factors like oxygen availability, the presence of Fe oxides, and soil redox conditions, which can all influence the process. My understanding of why we flush. Just plain water, what does it do? Strips the medium of salts and nutrients making it empty. What does that do? Triggers nutrient recycling within the plant. What's nutrient recycling? It is a natural part of plant senescence, which can be triggered once you know the switches. A 24:1 carbon-to-nitrogen ratio will also trigger. Why won't it trigger autophagy for me? Nitrogen needs to be gone, gone, gone almost. Ammoniacal (organic) nitrogen takes 4-5 times more water to separate it from soil particles than nitrates so what happens is most people jist flush the nitrates, leave all the ammoniacal in there and this prevents autophagy initiating. Nitrogen decays differently depending on its form during the dry. Ammoniacal nitrogen will oxidize in the air, leaving no trace. But nitrates do no decay and turn volatile and smelly and remain trapped until smoked, no matter how long you cure it does not oxidize. This is why you need to trigger it and begin the denitrification process prior to harvest to get rid of all the nitrates. Otherwise, you will smoke it. Flush till autophagy begins, just make sure you add no nitrogen afterwards. Micronutrients for trichomes. Don't leave the medium empty for 2 weeks, that does nothing but reduce yield 10%ish. Trichomes are another thing. Trichomes themselves are not directly affected by flushing; rather, flushing affects the plant's nutrient uptake, which influences the development and final state of the trichomes. Trichomes are filled with antioxidants in the last weeks, which is what makes them cloudy. A lot of the processing of antioxidants requires energy and nutrients (mostly micronutrients ), so you don't want that soil empty for 2 weeks, you just want the carbon nitrogen ratio 24:1and no higher. She still wants what she needs to ripen. Processing antioxidants is energy-intensive; heat and light accelerate the rate at which THC converts to CBN. This is why you lower DLI, lower temps. By doing so, you reduce the oxidative workload caused by photosynthesis, which opens up the oxidative capacity for the production of antioxidants. THC is mostly processed at night when the plant's oxidative capacity is generally moreso "free and available" for work
