Englischversion below Deutsch: Tag 29 Veg: Alle 2 Tage wird das LST wiederholt. Die meisten Triebe haben den Rand des Topes erreicht. Es sind im schnitt nun 16 Haupttriebe pro Pflanze. Zurückliegende Nodien werden beim LST entfernt - so verschwendet die Pflanze keine Energie in die Produktion von Biomasse die ohnehin weggeschnitten wird. Durch Unachtsamkeit und zu starkes LST sind mittlerweile 5 Triebe gebrochen (ca 1,6 Triebe pro Pflanze). Wie schon letze Woche angemerkt - eignen sich nicht alle Triebe zum Toppen. Es muss sich täglich die Struktur der Pflanze angeschaut werden und entsprechend entschieden werden. Tag 31 Veg: Der Plan läuft in die Richtung, die Damen am Anfang der Woche 6 in die Großen 40L zu setzen und dann den SOG zu starten. Heute war wider LST dran. Da ich genug Haupttriebe habe - werde ich vorerst nicht weiter Toppen (Sollte sich ein Trieb als äußerst potent erweisen, wird nochmal über ein Topping nachgedacht. Das Große Zeit 120x60x200 ist bereits aufgebaut und das Drainsystem installiert (Abwasser fließt direkt aus dem Zelt raus - präventiv gegen Trauermücken und andere Schädlinge die sich bei stehendem Wasser einnisten) Tag 33 Veg: Die Damen stehen nun in 40 Litertöpfen aus 80% AllMix und 20% Wurmerde. Angegossen mit ca 10L pro Topf (also in etwa 25% des Topfvolumen). Um Trockenstellen im Substrat zu vermeiden, habe ich bereits beim mischen des Substrats Wasser beigefügt. Bis das sich das Klima im Zelt eingestellt hat, dauert es etwas - daher überprüfe ich regelmäßig RLF und Temp. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- English: Day 29 – Vegetative Phase: LST is repeated every two days. Most shoots have reached the edge of the pot. On average, there are now 16 main shoots per plant. Lagging nodes are removed during LST so that the plant does not waste energy producing biomass that would be removed later anyway. Due to inattention and overly aggressive LST, a total of five shoots have broken so far (approximately 1.6 shoots per plant). As already noted last week, not all shoots are suitable for topping. The plant structure must be assessed daily, and decisions should be made accordingly. Day 31 – Vegetative Phase: The plan is moving toward transplanting the plants into the large 40-liter pots at the beginning of week 6 and then starting the SOG. Today, LST was performed again. Since there are already enough main shoots, no further topping is planned for now. If a shoot proves to be exceptionally vigorous, additional topping may be reconsidered. The large tent (120 × 60 × 200 cm) is already set up, and the drainage system has been installed. Wastewater is drained directly out of the tent as a preventive measure against fungus gnats and other pests that tend to establish themselves in standing water. Day 33 – Vegetative Phase: The plants are now placed in 40-liter pots filled with a substrate consisting of 80% All-Mix and 20% worm compost. Each pot was watered with approximately 10 liters, corresponding to about 25% of the total pot volume. To avoid dry spots within the substrate, water was already added during the mixing process. It takes some time for the tent climate to stabilize after transplanting; therefore, relative humidity and temperature are monitored regularly.

Weekly update on these beautiful ladies. They've grown amazing this week, starting to really flower showing some really cool pink pistols. Excited about these but nervous at the same time, since they're next to my greenhouse which having some catapiller issues at the moment. All in all Happy Growing.

18/10 - comienza su quinta semana en etapa de floracion. Su evolución fue muy rapida, apenas entro en flora cambio totalmente la planta. Los cocos están perfectos, super resinosos con olor muy fuerte. El banco de semillas recomienda que este en flora de 8 a 9 semanas. Seguramente la deje hasta la semana 8. Esta bastante avanzada. No tuve problemas en ninguna etapa. Sin dudas es una genetica que volvera a cultivar. Cabe aclarar que esta planta genera mucha resina por que es ideal para extracciones.

So this is the Tear Down week. The timing of it makes it so i will need to the harvest flag in a few days when I can weight and test the plants. I have included the Cleaning, and Cutting and some Root Porn. I will make the harvest post in about 4-5 days, when I can trim these plants. There is a lot of Plant here. I got way more than I was expecting. I don't have a scale that measure this amount of plant, without taking like 10 measurements and then adding them together. So I will just be posting the dry weight. I will post the wet weight as dry weight * 1.65. Autopots: Wow, what a great product. I have been blown away by how well and how easy it was to work with them. They really did solve the watering issues. Excellent product. If you are a beginner, start with Autopots. -= Lessons Learnt =- - Overdrive the air to your Autopots. In my control plant, I used a small rectangle air stone (instead of a standard air dome). This lead to root rot and some other issues, it also put significantly less air into the water. The root rot, give the material for the Brown Algae to grow. Using a huge Air-disc-Air-Stone would be an excellent combo to mix in with the air dome itself. Something like this: https://www.amazon.ca/Pawfly-Diffuser-Suction-Hydroponics-Aquarium/dp/B01MY3AQ33 at the bottom and the air-dome on top of it, will be what I do with my next experiment. - Air stone in the reservoir. I had two instances where algae grew into the res. An air stone would have helped. It would have also helped my control plant get less root rot. Given the amount that the air-domes and air sources got engulfed, having the water have more o2 in it would have only been beneficial. - Don't grow 6 plants in a 4x4. Since my control plant was about 1/8th the size of the others, I think I could have grown 5 in the shape of a 5 (on a 6 sided dice)⚄ This placement would give a much more spaced canopy for airflow and more importantly light. The sides of some of the plants were lighter green and produced larf due to lack of light penetration. - This tent was on 19-5 schedule. This worked out very well for this strain. After every lights on, they were in the praying position, so this strain was able to recover in that 5hrs off. If I had more seeds, I would run these again, and try 20-4. I think this strain could handle it. All for all, I think I'm going to 19-5 as my default timing. This kept up a solid DLI. - Staring at .9EC (really .7 EC cause my water here is .2 EC) Then bumping up at .1 a week, until 1.6EC worked out VERY well. I experimented on this crop all the way up to 1.9EC, which burnt the tips of this plant. I think if I did this strain again, I would do 1.6EC until 3-4 weeks left then crank it to 1.9. It did plump them up when I went to 1.9, however it left them looking rough. Bulk was added though. - Sticking to 6.0PH for all of veg, and 2 weeks into flower worked great. The plant had solid and consistent color and leaf shape . The plant's did get hurt, due to some issues (as noted on the weeks). I switched to 6.5 PH in the last 3-4 weeks and it helped them recover, and plump up noticeably. -VPD. The #1 thing I focused on was VPD. I keep it .9kpa range, as best as humanly possible. It was honestly, HUGELY noticeable compared to my other grows. I know truly understand the value of properly dialed in VPD. This is the one lesson that will stick with me forever. - Super-cropping: On the plants I give the chiropractic treatment too, had much thicker stems as much larger channel internally. I did this treatment to 4 of the 6, and the 4 that had it done has larger buds and recovered from defoliation faster. TLDR; VPD is king. Super-cropping is worth the time. Keeping PH and EC dialed in were all wins. Autopots kick ass.

03/31/25: Today was a major milestone in the grow: all five plants were transplanted into 1-gallon AirPots and topped above the 3rd node. I also cleaned up everything below node two, leaving each plant with two strong, healthy nodes to begin shaping their structure for the vegetative phase. Normally, I wouldn’t combine transplanting and topping on the same day, as both are stress-inducing events. However, the plants looked robust and healthy, showing no signs of weakness. Because of this, I felt confident they could handle the dual stress. Still, I expect them to take the next 2–3 days to recover, after which I anticipate they’ll bounce back with even more vigor. Each plant was moved into a 1-gallon AirPot, which encourages air pruning and promotes a more fibrous, expansive root system. During transplant, I sprinkled mycorrhizal fungi directly near the rootball of each plant to help stimulate root colonization and increase nutrient uptake during this critical phase. On inspection, the roots were healthy and white, showing no signs of being rootbound—making this the perfect window for transplanting without risking transplant shock or root constriction. The newly potted plants were placed back into the 4x4 tent, now sitting about 36 inches (approximately 91.5 cm) below the AC Infinity S44 light, which is set to 40% power. This provides a PAR reading of around 360 µmol/m²/s, which is well-suited for early veg. To begin early phenotype tracking, I’ve labeled the plants as PP1 through PP5: • PP1: Most vigorous plant so far • PP2: Slightly behind PP1 in size and growth rate • PP3–PP5: Showing very similar growth characteristics, slightly more compact If early vigor is any indication of sex, I would guess that PP1 and PP2 may be male, while PP3 through PP5 could be female. That said, this is purely speculative—true sex traits won’t reveal themselves until preflower, and many vigorous plants end up being female as well.

Noch keine Ideen. Es gibt aber einige Gedanken und Erfahrungswerte, die definitiv folgen werden. Einige Dinge haben mich sehr enttäuscht und in zwischen weiß ich auch warum.

Nice week. Tropicana got healthy stuff in the last days. On day 29 I gave her a 1:10 homemade plant manure fertilization with comfrey and nettle which takes about two weeks to see a reaction. Three days later she got her next head fertilization to protect her with field horsetree extract and a cosmic sunstorm fertilization 😉. Smelling a bit but works good with fruit trees or veggies which are sensitive for mold and killer insects. Got to bring some 🐞cause I watched some lice while sucking Tropicana juice. 🤭😅 Northern lights night was nice to watch. Sun is shining and the Temperature during the days is up to 25 degrees. Day 34: Tropicana slept outside for the first time. The temperature at night is over 10 degrees now, soon even more.

End of week 6 for this lady. Great week for Orange Sherbet FF she is bouncing back really good from the issues she had in earlier weeks. She still developing slow. The leaves looks really good and healthy. I did a good defoliation to the botton so she can receive more light. For week 7 she only is going to receive water and cal-mag so she can continue with the recovering.

Creo que tengo algo de baile con las fechas. Más o menos ronda los 2 meses actualmente 18 de junio. Han salido 2 colas principales y luego ramas bajeras extendidas por la maceta I think I'm a bit off with the dates. It's roughly around two months old, currently June 18th. Two main colas have emerged, followed by lower branches spreading throughout the pot.

Popped 3 of these, all three popped & sprouted but I killed one with direct airflow on her from my intake fan. I will have 2 of these to grow out & will be growing 1 baikal Express in place of her.

Okay so I'm trying something new, since I've gone away from a switch to water for the last week flush I harvested the tops and best smalls and packed the cannatrol full. I'm giving the under growth a bit more time to rippen before I harvest that for the the freezer. If this turns out to be a bad idea I'll not do it again in the future. The last long video is what's left in the tent right now. Let me know if any of you have experience doing this. Updated with a bunch of pictured of dried and cured. Ended up with 186g of beautiful flower. 72g of untrimmed smalls I'll make into RSO, I have a lot of back and nerve pain and RSO hands down the only thing that brings me actual relive, I'm late to the party on this one but I set a side part of the grow for it now. I let the under canopy and shorter tops go another 10 days feed at half strength and I'm glad I did, it ripened up nicely and definitely got a lot of color. I forgot to get pictures of that harvest but I will when I pull it from the freezer to wash. My test jar of this washed at 4+% (the last picture). Last update will be results of that wash. Last update on this one, I added a couple hash/rosin pics at the end. She washed from plant to rosin at 4.03% the terps are musky skunk, sweet pastries, and fresh Linen. I'd definitely grow this one again.
