Week 1 of Flower is officially complete, and with that, the stretch is on! The canopy is definitely filling out, and the Jelly Donutz (which was a couple of weeks behind the others) looks like it might end up getting crowded out. I adjusted the oscillating fans to make sure there was no wind blowing over top of the Jelly Donutz,  sometimes that can discourage them from stretching up into the wind, and I need the Jelly Donutz to stretch as much as possible. That being said, the two Hella Jelly’s and one Vanilla Frosting are thriving right now. Many bud sites are starting to appear and point up vertically now. The Hella Jelly and Vanilla Frosting clones have just now started to show roots in the Clone King. That means, this week, I will need to transplant them into small pots so I can maintain them as mothers, in case one of them turns out to be a keeper after harvest! Also, this week in the veg tent, I popped three Frosted Cherry-O’s autoflower seeds from Speedrun Genetics. Two will be growing in an Earthbox, and the other will grow in a 7-gallon fabric pot of living soil that I will feed via topdressing. I’m really excited to see how these autos grow in the Earthbox. The Earth Box is a sub-irrigated planter, which has a separate water reservoir below the soil that the plant can drink from directly (once its roots make it through the bottom grate). The corners of the Earthbox pack the soil tightly, and those corners wick the water up as the plant drinks. This, combined with the ability to really mound top-dressings under the plastic cover, (which keeps the top of the soil moist) is supposed to make the Earthbox a powerhouse for autoflowers. The feeder roots have access to all the nutrients they could need, and the bottom roots can tap into a sort of “underground spring,” where they can drink fresh water whenever they want. This will be my first time using an Earthbox with an autoflower, and I’m excited to see how it turns out. Keep an eye out for that diary to start later this week. The 4x4 is off to the races now, with week 1 of flower DONE! Happy Growing, everybody 😀

En esta segunda semana aumento la intendidad del LED hasta alcanzar 18.000 LUX en la punta de las plantas, manteniendo la distancia de 50cm. En uno de los riegos agrego nitrógeno (Fish Mix), en otro Bio Heaven, y siempre CalMag, ya que parto de un agua de baja mineralización (EC 0.05)

👉Alrighty Then👈 👉Apple And Banana 👈 So we had some real nice growth this , had to do a little leaf management👈 flower mode activated...... Everything is looking good 👍I'm using well water which is hard so I'm having a few issue but I'm on it .... So ive up'd the nutrients to accommodate pre flower ..... Soil by Promix Nutrients by Cronks Lights by MarsHydro.ca FC4800 X UR45 X Adlite Deep Red And Blue Tent 4x4x6.5 & Equipment by MarsHydro.ca High reflectivity inner mylar Thick Oxford fabric Smooth heavy duty zipper Sturdy metal frame Zipper blackout cloth Good anti light leakage performance The 6in Inline kicks ass moves alot of air ●Blue Light Effect: Blue light shortens internodes, resulting in shorter, stronger plants, ideal for supporting fruit development later. During vegetative growth, blue light promotes lateral branch development effectively. Well this should be fun 🙃 Thanks to all my growmies out there for stopping by its much appreciated 👈 👉Happy Growing👈 Well this should be fun 🙃 Thanks to all my growmies out there for stopping by its much appreciated 👈 👉Happy Growing👈

I am very happy with bloom. The plants are showing some amber trichomes very early. Some of it may be from bruising from me reaching over them?

🌼 Flowering – Week 2 (Days 36–42) 10/18 (Day 36 – Start of Week 5): Watered with the same nutrient solution as last week (2.5 ml/L CalMag + 1.4 ml/L Coco A + 1.4 ml/L Coco B). Not adding PK yet — I’ll wait until the stretch fully ends before introducing it. Measured heights today: tallest = 122 cm, shortest = 61 cm, average = 84 cm. Did not measure runoff this time. 10/19 (Day 37): Average vertical growth today: +4.66 cm, showing the stretch is slowing down. Watered again with the same solution as yesterday. The canopy remains uneven, with clear height differences between phenotypes — I’ll adjust pot heights soon to improve light distribution. Plants look healthy overall, no visible stress or nutrient issues. 10/20 (Day 38): Watered with water + CalMag + AN Micro (micronutrient maintenance day). Adjusted the height of the shorter pots, and now PPFD across the canopy is much more uniform. Average daily growth was +5.33 cm — the defoliation slowed them down briefly, but they’ve regained momentum. The tallest plant is now 132 cm, and I’ve had to raise the lights to their maximum height — any further stretch could become a problem for space. 10/21 (Day 39): Watered with the same nutrient solution as before, increasing total volume to 1.5 L per plant to achieve about 25% runoff. Performed a massive defoliation — foliage density was too high, and the dehumidifier couldn’t keep up with transpiration. Suspect that the excessive stretch was partially due to insufficient light intensity, since readings were only ~360 PPFD when ideal for this stage is 500–600 PPFD. Raised light intensity to 430 PPFD to gradually correct this. 10/22 (Day 40): Same watering as yesterday (1.5 L, ~25% runoff). Runoff: EC 1000, pH 6.6 Plants look strong and are adapting well to the increased light. Tomorrow I’ll introduce PK 13/14 at low dosage to initiate the first phase of bloom boosting. 10/23 (Day 41): Watered with 1.5 L. Introduced 0.3 ml/L PK 13/14 (first light dose) and 0.5 ml/L AN Micro after noticing one plant showing small brown spots between leaf veins (possible early micronutrient deficiency). Runoff: EC 1000, pH 6.6 Plants look stable overall, no visible stress from new additives. 10/24 (Day 42 – End of Week 5): Watered again with the same solution as yesterday. Input/Runoff: EC 1000, pH 6.6 Humidity has been difficult to control — RH stays around 60%, which lowers VPD. Planning to increase airflow and raise temperature slightly to improve VPD levels and moisture evacuation. Week 5 Summary 🌸 Stage: End of stretch and transition to full flower development. 📈 Growth: Height stabilized around 130 cm (tallest). Stretch nearly complete. ⚙️ Feeding: Base mix: 2.5 CalMag + 1.4 A/B (EC 1300). Runoff steady at EC 1000 / pH 6.6, indicating perfect nutrient uptake. Introduced PK 13/14 (0.3 ml/L) and AN Micro (0.5 ml/L) for bloom support. 💧 Watering: 1.5 L with 25–30% runoff per plant. No salt buildup detected. 💡 Lighting: PPFD increased from 360 → 430 µmol/m²/s after noticing under-lighting. Canopy adjusted by raising pots; more uniform distribution achieved. ✂️ Defoliation: Heavy leaf removal on Day 39 to control RH and open airflow. 🌡️ Environment: RH stable around 60%, but VPD slightly low (target ~1.2 kPa). Working to improve air exchange and temperature for better balance. 🌿 Overall health: Strong recovery after defoliation, no new deficiencies or stress. Early bud stacking visible. ➡️ Plan for Week 6 – Flowering Week 3 (Days 43–49) 🎯 Objective: Consolidate flowering, strengthen bud sites, and maintain climate stability. Nutrients: Maintain base feed at EC 1300–1400 µS, pH 5.8 ± 0.1. Increase PK 13/14 slightly to 0.4–0.5 ml/L if no stress appears. Keep AN Micro 0.5 ml/L once per week for micronutrient balance. Environment: Target VPD 1.1–1.3 kPa (temp ~26–27 °C, RH 50–55%). Improve dehumidification and circulation — consider stronger exhaust or intake fan cycles. Lighting: Increase PPFD to 500-600 µmol/m²/s. Monitor for any light stress at canopy level (tallest plants close to the lamp). Defoliation: No more heavy pruning — just remove large leaves shading bud sites. Observation: Track bud swelling and trichome development. Watch humidity closely during night cycles to avoid mold risk.

Estamos en la semana de transición del periodo vegetativo al periodo de floración. Nuestras plantas ya tienen un tamaño correcto para poder pasar de 18h de luz a 12h... De esta forma iniciamos dicho periodo. Hemos conectado tres equipos led LazerLite Pro 720w ajustados al 50% de su potencia. Repartimos bien todas las plantas para que reciban luz de forma homogénea. Regamos, esta vez solo con agua, para no tener exceso de fertilización, ya que nuestro sustrato es muy rico en nutrientes.

This week I transplanted my little Strawberry Banana girl to a Big Girl Bed-LOL. Seriously though, I transplanted her to a large garden bed as opposed to 5 gallon pots like I usually do. I wanted to give this plant all the room she need to grow her very best. I'm curious to see if having a larger grow area will produce a larger plant. I am thinking more room for the roots to expand. My plant did not grow very much in height but the width of the leaves did grow. Weather has been very nice here this week.

🌿 LA Punch by The Cali Connection 🌿 Week 7 Flower-day 2 16/10/2025 Nutrient change Floramax veg 1: 1L Floramax flowering enhancer: 400ml Floramax organabud:400ml Floramax rezin: 100ml ( around 1/4 dose) Floramax cal mag: 100ml Gp3 pro cal: 100ml ( unfortunately ran out and won't have any until next week ) Gp3 massive bloom: 100ml Cyco platinum series silica: 200ml Sleeps with the fishez: 400ml ( half dose system shock testing to see of this minimises/prevents problems per nutrients change like i was having ) Ph 5.9-6 - EC 2.2-2.3 ( Floramax wants e.c of 2.4, so I'm doing .1-.2 under for now to see how she responds LST and Defoilation is finally done on her, LA punch might get another LST tweak and a couple more Defoils. Unsure yet she's staying very tight so its a little harder to gauge how she'll respond I thought I should add, with the way I lst, I like to get as much defoilation out the way before flipping to flower that way all she does in flower is just get fat and lovely. Seemed to work well coming from only doing Autoflowers so just using that knowledge and implementing to my photo grows and tweaking it
