Blütewoche 3 Die dritte Blütewoche ist nun abgeschlossen. Trotz der seitlichen Fixierung hat sie in dieser Woche noch einmal leicht an Höhe zugelegt. Der Stretch scheint sich dem Ende zu nähern, eventuell ist noch ein geringes Höhenwachstum zu erwarten, der Fokus verlagert sich nun zunehmend auf die Blütenentwicklung. Wie auf den Bildern zu erkennen ist, bilden sich mittlerweile deutlich sichtbare Blütenansätze. Die Budsites entwickeln sich gleichmäßig und beginnen langsam an Struktur zu gewinnen. Die Amnesia Lemon zeigt insgesamt einen sehr vitalen und gesunden Eindruck. Die Blätter sind kräftig, satt dunkelgrün und stabil. An einzelnen Blattspitzen ist eine leichte Aufhellung zu erkennen, was vermutlich auf eine relativ hohe Lichtintensität bzw. den geringen Lampenabstand zurückzuführen ist. Die Umgebungsbedingungen lagen tagsüber bei etwa 27–28 °C und einer Luftfeuchtigkeit von ca. 63–67 %. In der Dunkelphase steigt die Luftfeuchtigkeit zeitweise auf etwa 70 %. Um die Luftzirkulation zu verbessern und Feuchtigkeitsansammlungen im unteren Bereich zu vermeiden, habe ich sie etwas entlaubt. Dabei wurden sowohl einige große Fächerblätter als auch untere, lichtarme Blütenansätze entfernt, um die Energie gezielt auf die oberen und besser belichteten Triebe zu lenken. Der VPD-Wert liegt bei ca. 1,2-1,4kPa. Die Ventilation läuft durchgehend mit zwei Umluftventilatoren, was für eine gute Luftbewegung im gesamten Zelt sorgt. Insgesamt verläuft die Entwicklung sehr stabil. Kann gerne so weiter gehen!

G'day, Things are going well, she's really growing now, having to adjust LST every couple of days to keep her down to fill the area. Bought all the bits to make a scrog net out of pipes and netting which will be installed in next few days. I replaced piping from transparent to black, the transparent ones were starting to grow algae, probs wouldn't cause an issue but didn't wanna take any chances. Changed the reservoir back to black with a spare lid that I had, as the white lid was solar paint I kept being blinded, was getting close to leaving the grow room with a white stick lol Upped the nutrients up to 797 at TDS 0.5. P.s I am really surprised the small plant hasn't had nutrient burn, TDS is like triple what it should be for a plant of that size! Thanks guys... 😊

Edit: I came home from work after making my weekly log entry yesterday and I could smell my grow from my driveway... so I asked for help. THANK YOU OOZLEFINCH FOR THE HELP.. THIS IS WHY WE ASK FOR HELP... I left a question on here stating that my new canister wasn't working and asked for generic advise. He left an answer that pointed out the fact that my exhaust fan might be set waaaay to high... and it was! It turns out there's a limit to the amount of air that filter fan 'scrub', and my exhaust fan goes way over that limit even on 6 or 7.. I turned it down to 3 and the smell got better immediately. ☮️ Still on auto pilot at this point... I'm really close to harvest.. and I'm not even on day 60 😲. I created videos this weeks, they capture the plants in ways that a still picture just won't. My entire house stinks.. my neighbors are looking at my funny, and my wife thinks a family of skunks is hiding in our walls... I've never had this problem.. I even got a brand new carbon air scrubber and its not helping 🤣 Process/ Environment changes since last week: - To help preserve the terpenes I've been trying to lower my temperature, which is hard without an AC unit I'm not plugging in an ac just to grow some plants. I'm at 24- 26 degrees C (75 - 82 F). - I've been lowering my humidity accordingly to keep VPD in a good range - I lowered my lights closer to my plants, turning them up would just add to the heat. - I'm defoliating as much large fan leaves off as possible - My watering pH is at around 6.7 to 6.8.. I will not be flushing these plants - I rotate my plants every day to make sure I'm getting light to hit every node it can This week I'm pulling out the digital scope and doing the first trichome checks for these babies. The cheese auto is going to get the chop by the end of next week.. I hope you like the video I added of it.. it's the easiest plant I've ever grown and she's going to be FIRE. The blackberry auto is giving off a gas/berry smell and is very sticky to the touch. A beautiful triploid... my first and I hope to get many more. The Forbidden Runtz smells just like a zkittles does, it's bang on. Very dense very sticky buds. I almost tossed her during the seedling stage too due to her mutation. I'm glad I reconsidered ☮️ Thank you Fastbuds

May 02 Entering preflower, I think I don't have much training time ahead but I'm sure I'll be able to get her even and clean. Some small branches are trying to pop out under the already 6-7 ones but I just can't get light on there, we'll see later on if I harvest in sequence! This won't be the most successful grow but it will have been a realllllyyy instructive one. Next one if there is soon will most likely give better result. So far, without being too harsh, I think she's doing great still. Might not be in the most perfect healthy state but it's not a big deal in the sense that she's still pretty happy right now and that's fine with me. From start she has been on 24 hour non stop and I don't see any problem with it. In any case you are sure to not halt her growth by doing so and each one of these led should consume about 6 watts. On 8 we get to a grand total of 48 watts which is very fine. Current light setup might have been upgraded to a potential increase in yield of 25 to 35 % I'd guess. But for the price I paid for all of this, it's very much worth it. Doubling the light setup would raise me to a 100 watts, and light coverage would be sufficient to grow 4 autoflower. Since I only have one plant I'm keeping it on the not too expensive side without sacrificing too much, but a third setup of 4 led with 2 reptile UV led would probably increase significantly the final quality and quantity. In any case, even tho I can say it has pained me to train her since she's so small and bushy, I would probably keep this strain around for sentimental reason, I really see value in life itself and this plant is part of mine, eheh. Good night guys. May 03 I think I can notice 4 pistils growing out of the main head. Magnification from camera. It took me another hour or so to train her but I think it's worth it. I'm at about 9 new heads that are getting a good amount of light, I don't know what will happen to the other smaller ones under these 9s, we'll see if they have time to produce anything ^^. Funny expectation, if the branch don't stretch a good inch from today to 4-5 days in the future, this is gonna be chaotic there xD. Aye aye, I'll be away from pretty girl for roughly 2 day. I gave her about 350 ML of water 2 days ago. Since she has shown minor sign of problems relating to soil ph, I gave her 1 part decarbonated Perrier with about 2.7 part neutral water. Perrier is made from source water which contain macro-nutrient essential to plants. It's PH is also officially cotted at 5.5. There is debates on whether or not carbonated Perrier would be beneficial to a plant, but here I choosed to play narrower. I'm still spraying her with water once in a while. I am progressively lowering the frequency since she is approaching flowering and I don't want the humidity level to raises to much, for any question just message me. Aight, guud night. May 05 Just came back, she need water, it's obvious to me since I know her grow rate which has been slower the past 2 day it seems, pot feel lighter and soil dry ^^. I'm a little bit sick and I just came back so I'll relax a bit and take care of her later tonight. I'll try giving her 600 ml of water this time, she's getting bigger and with flowering approaching I think it's time to look for a increase. Fan leafs did increase in volume from the newly trained branch, but it feel like she has been going at 75% of her speed, but it might also be her entering flowering phase so slowing her vegetative growth, I'll post more picture after training of her later tonight, good night ;) May 07 I have read somewhere that cannabis plant often go for a good stretch before the flowering really kick in and I think that's what she's heading for. I am quite satisfied with the current evenest of each tops, I am expecting the main branch to grow higher even tho she's pretty much equal for now. I think it's normal and as long as possible I'll pull her down from the need of light coverage but everything should be fine, I don't think there will be any problem with the light. I am really looking forward to see how high she will stretch. Ideally, I don't want her to grow too big, but I am very interested in the idea of her being full of tops. The bigger the branch, the better nutrient are delivered and if light is managed correctly, you'll end up with a bigger harvest, bigger colas. So far I gave her nutrient 1 time, she got nitrogen toxicity because the soil is in fact rich enough for pretty much the whole grow, when I bought my fertilizer I thought about the fact that autoflower grow pretty much all in one at the same time but with that soil, I should have gone for something more on the P and K side. I am considering buying a new small amount of fertilizer for cheap, that is better adapted to my need. I do have little worries about micro nutrients but I do believe I am stressing a bit for nothing. In worst case I'll just answer to her need which is totally fine. Have a nice day !

The ICE is almost done; the NL doesn’t even seem close. Interesting since ICE sprouted a day later than the NL.

2018-03-20 Week 12 Day 1 New week and not much to say. No water or nutes today, just the regular weekly check to see that they look nice and healthy. Raised the lamp about 10 cm to make sure that the girls don't get burned again. Power Plant XL nr1 is 55 cm Power Plant XL nr2 is 49 cm ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Strain information Genetics for the famous Power Plant were captured by a group of Dutch growers on a trip to South Africa, back in the 90’s. They managed to breed a strain that was soon a popular choice in coffee shops of the Netherlands, most likely due to the soaring and intense Sativa high. Zambeza Seeds thought that the productiveness of Power Plant should never be forgotten and created an updated version, to bring the legend back to live. Power Plant XL yields up to 600-750g/m² in a flowering period of approximately 55 days! The efficiency and productiveness of Power Plant XL fears no comparison with many recently bred cannabis strains. Indoor heights of 80-110cm make this sativa-dominant variety relatively easy to grow, but outdoor growers need to be aware of the power that is being released under the sun. Outdoor plants can easily reach heights of 150-200cm, and yields of 500-600g per plant. The taste of Power Plant XL can be described as a delightful blend of sweet and sour flavours, with subtle hints of pine tree in the background. Smokers who appreciate a very strong and uplifting Sativa high will be more than satisfied with the effects. One will experience feelings of euphoria that are definitely intense and uplifting, typical for a South African Sativa like this. The up-high can also evolve into being more relaxed, especially when larger quantities are being consumed. Some people suspect Power Plant to be grown in large commercial operations around the world. It doesn’t really matter if these assumptions are the truth or myths, but Zambeza’s breeders are very proud to bring this highly productive legend back to live. The updated version of it, Power Plant XL, is the most efficient Dutch "bud factory" money can buy. -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

All doing great. The Amnesia Zkittles must of missed the memo about when to flower and is off on its own mission. Apart from that it’s all good. I’m concerned that some of the bigger plants will block sunlight but first I need some sunshine 😅

This week went well. She finally got some good size to her and should be done stretching as the week ends. I did a slight lst on her and opened her up a little. She recieved a good soaking today amd shouldn't need topped off till mid to late next week. She isn't so much a problem child anymore.

Was considering a 20/4 cycle on flowering but after snapping the stem I've brought that in now to try and aid recovery in any way I can. Spotted pistils after a trim to the Strawberry Banana on day 22, thing about to get interesting! Last bits of LST and such for her this week but the Gorilla Cookies still has a bit to go and probably even more after the stem incident 🤦‍♂️Speaking of which, little RAM fan gave up this week so I got a bigger one to cool things better but in the process of setting it up I took out a lower branch on the Strawberry Banana, not to bad as it was only a spindly little thing and the space has been utilised to bend some others over giving even more light access. Going to start adding a small amount of bloom to the feed for her now but the Cookies are still on a 10th of the recommended dose but doing well for it spreading out nicely! By the end of the week pistils were really coming out on both girls so a big trim was given and a probable last round of LST to really let the light in! All looks good right now!

I was expecting a slower plant, but the yellow pisils proving I was wrong. I added Canna Flush to the mix and from this point I will monitoring daily the trichomes.
