🌿 Blütetag 45 | Tag 105 gesamt Klima – Frühling? Draußen bleibt es wechselhaft: feuchte Phasen, kühlere Tage, dann wieder mildere Abschnitte. Ein klarer Rhythmus will sich noch nicht einstellen. Im Zelt selbst lief es deutlich kontrollierter als zuletzt. Die VPD-Werte lagen häufiger im Zielbereich, die Kurven wirkten ruhiger und berechenbarer. Solche Umschwünge zeigen sich dennoch im Detail. Stoffwechsel und Wasserhaushalt reagieren sensibel auf Veränderungen – besonders im Blattbild wird sichtbar, wie fein die Pflanzen abgestimmt arbeiten. Sie stabilisieren sich wieder, aber jede Schwankung hinterlässt ihre Handschrift. 🌿 Pflanzenstatus White Gushers 33 Sie bleibt die sensiblere Kandidatin. An exponierten Trieben zeigen sich kleine Nekrosen und leichte Transportanzeichen. Die Flecken haben leicht zugenommen – es wirkt, als würde sie einzelne Blätter gezielt aufgeben und Energie in die Blüten verlagern. Diese Woche wurde punktuell entlaubt. Nur dort, wo Blätter übereinander lagen oder sich gegenseitig Licht nahmen. Ein bis zwei zusätzliche Blätter sind gefallen – bewusst moderat. Das Stacking läuft weiterhin sehr stark. Die Buds bauen sichtbar auf und werden kompakter. Beim Trichom-Check in der Nahaufnahme war ich ehrlich überrascht: Es sind bereits deutlich mehr trübe als klare Köpfe zu sehen. Für Blütetag 45 ist das weiter, als ich erwartet hätte. Ob die stabilere VPD-Phase die Reife beschleunigt hat – oder ob die vorherigen Schwankungen einen Impuls gesetzt haben – bleibt offen. Beobachtung läuft. Triangle Sherbet Kush Weiterhin die ruhigere Erscheinung im Zelt. Sie reagiert gelassener auf Schwankungen und zeigt weniger ausgeprägte Blattspuren. Auch hier wurde punktuell ausgelichtet – minimal gezielter als bei der White Gushers, aber weiterhin sehr zurückhaltend. Das Stacking läuft sauber und konstant. Optisch wirkt sie noch etwas weißer in den Pistillen, aber auch hier zeigt der Trichom-Check eine weiter fortgeschrittene Entwicklung als erwartet. Sehr stabiler Eindruck – mit der Tendenz, früher reif zu sein als der Kalender vermuten lässt. 🌸 Blüten & Duftbild Die Buds verdichten sich weiter, die Harzschicht wird deutlich kräftiger. Aromatisch zeigt sich jetzt ein klares Profil: Mehr Frucht als Gas. Die fruchtigen Noten stehen im Vordergrund – süßlich, reif und präsent. Darunter liegt eine würzige Basisnote, die dem Ganzen Tiefe verleiht, ohne dominant zu wirken. Beim Öffnen des Zeltes kommt zuerst Frucht. Die Würze trägt im Hintergrund. Die White Gushers 33 wirkt heller und klar fruchtbetont. Die Triangle Sherbet Kush bringt etwas mehr Tiefe mit, bleibt aber ebenfalls im fruchtigen Spektrum. Kein Diesel-Brett – sondern Profil. 💧 Nährstoffe Konstant gefahren: CalMag: 1,5 ml/L Bloom: 1 ml/L Keine Anpassungen. Keine Experimente. Stabilität vor Aktionismus. 🐞 IPM / Biologischer Pflanzenschutz Im Einsatz: Florfliegenlarven Raubmilben Gelbtafeln Nematoden (erneut gegossen) Die Nematoden wurden diese Woche wieder eingebracht – das Intervall war fällig. Durch die insgesamt guten Bedingungen haben die Trips wieder etwas zugelegt. Kein akuter Befallsdruck, aber sie sind präsent und sichtbar aktiver. Es bleibt ein begleitender Prozess. Aufmerksamkeit ja – Überreaktion nein. 🔎 Ausblick Die kommenden Tage verlangen vor allem Beobachtung. Wenn sich die Trichomentwicklung in diesem Tempo fortsetzt, könnte der geplante Erntezeitpunkt nach vorne rücken. Klima stabil halten. Nicht unnötig eingreifen. Sauber Richtung Reife führen. . 🔎 Wochenfazit – Ruhe bewahren Blüte ist kein Sprint, sondern Timing. Wer jetzt hektisch eingreift, nimmt mehr als er gibt. Also bleibt das System ruhig. Die Pflanzen arbeiten – ich lasse sie. Umschwung draußen. Fortschritt drinnen. — Rocko 🌿🔥💚 🌿 Flower Day 45 | Day 105 overall Climate – Spring? Outside conditions remain inconsistent: humid phases, cooler days, then milder stretches again. A stable rhythm still hasn’t really settled in. Inside the tent, however, things felt noticeably more controlled than before. VPD values stayed within the target range more often, and the curves looked calmer and more predictable. Even so, these shifts leave subtle marks. Metabolism and water balance react sensitively to environmental changes — especially visible in the foliage. They stabilize again, but every fluctuation leaves its small signature. 🌿 Plant Status White Gushers 33 She remains the more sensitive one. Small necrotic spots and slight transport signs are visible on exposed branches. The spotting has increased slightly — it feels like she’s deliberately letting go of certain leaves to redirect energy into flower production. Selective defoliation was performed this week. Only where leaves overlapped or blocked light. One or two additional leaves were removed — intentionally and moderately. Stacking continues beautifully. Buds are building strongly and tightening up. During a close trichome inspection, I was honestly surprised: There are already significantly more cloudy heads than clear ones. For Flower Day 45, that’s further along than I expected. Whether the more stable VPD phase accelerated maturation — or whether previous VPD fluctuations triggered a stress response that pushed development — remains an open question. Observation continues. Triangle Sherbet Kush Still the calmer presence in the tent. She handles fluctuations more steadily and shows fewer visible leaf reactions. Selective defoliation was done here as well — slightly more targeted than on White Gushers, but still restrained. Stacking is clean and consistent. Visually she still shows more white pistils, yet trichome development also appears more advanced than the calendar would suggest. Very stable overall impression — with signs that maturity may arrive earlier than planned. 🌸 Flowers & Aromatic Profile Bud density continues to increase, and the resin layer is becoming noticeably thicker. Aromatically, the profile is now clearly defined: More fruit than gas. Fruity notes dominate — sweet, ripe, and clearly present. Beneath that sits a subtle spicy base note, adding depth without overpowering the profile. When opening the tent, fruit hits first. The spice carries underneath. White Gushers 33 leans brighter and more fruit-forward. Triangle Sherbet Kush brings slightly more depth, but remains clearly within the fruity spectrum. No diesel punch — just defined character. 💧 Nutrients Kept consistent: CalMag: 1.5 ml/L Bloom: 1 ml/L No adjustments. No experimentation. Stability over intervention. 🐞 IPM / Biological Plant Protection Currently in place: Lacewing larvae Predatory mites Yellow sticky traps Nematodes (reapplied this week) Nematodes were reintroduced this week — the interval was due. Due to the generally favorable conditions, thrips activity has increased slightly again. No acute pressure, but clearly present. Managed, not ignored. 🔎 Outlook The coming days are about close observation. If trichome development continues at this pace, harvest timing may need to be adjusted earlier than originally planned. Keep the climate stable. Avoid unnecessary intervention. Guide the flowers cleanly into maturity. 🔎 Weekly Conclusion – Stay Calm Flowering isn’t a sprint — it’s timing. Overreact now, and you take more than you give. So the system stays calm. The plants are working — I let them. Shift outside. Progress inside. — Rocko 🌿🔥💚

Buenas noches familia, os prometo que os deje lo mejor para el final, esta semana podéis ir despidiéndoos, ya que me parece que va a ser la última semana ✂️. Cambie de teléfono y las fotos son increíbles. El olor de nuestra indica es BRUTAL, huele muy fuerte a cítrico , tiene una pintada terrible, estoy deseando tener estas flores secas. Los cogollos brillan a la vista por una capa de tricomas... se nota sus 18% de Thc. Es una cepa que es 100% válida para proyectos SOG. Genética cruzada con Chemdawg x Lemon Thai x Pakistani Kush. -realizamos un estrés hídrico: Lo cual es regar las últimas semanas en el mismo periodo de tiempo, pero reduciendo las cantidades de riego progresivamente. Zambeza a hecho un gran trabajo con esta cepa y no hay más que verla... 👏

As of day 43 (November 13), the NYC Diesel has stopped stretching and is putting on weight throughout the buds. It is an important time for the plant, as the flowering is going to be critical for quality and yield, but it is also a little boring not having anything to do besides watch, water, and wait. It's doing well with the nutrients so I am upping the phosphorus/potassium it is getting, and I am going to try to slightly lower the cal/mag to help reduce the nitrogen. I am continuing with the Armor Si as an extra potassium boost as well. I try my best not to overfeed, as I find the auto flowers with my lighting setup are sensitive to more agressive feeding schedules. Day 46: did a small defoliation, will probably be the last. Thanks for reading!

LST, HST and defoliated second time, Fimmed main 1x, fimmed all tops 14 days later, fimmed all resulting tops 3 weeks later. well over 100 tops and counting, removed all tiny branches off the mains. pre loli.. lol Ill let em up in a few days. should be well beyond the 20" circumference of the 20 gal pots. Gonn a flower 2 in the space , and 2 in my newly acquired 48x48x80 tent. Shopping a few Flowering beasts to put in for the next phase. Love to get 2x https://opticledgrowlights.com/products/slim-720s-dimmable-led-grow-light-720w-triple-dimmer-3500k-uv-ir-lh351h-v2. Oh well, we will see. HAppy growing peeps!

Not sure, but I may have stress her moving her from tent to BR, my other two critical's are also showing signs of flowering. So, it's back into the tent since it's 12/12. So she's drinking more, it shows as she's grown quite a bit in tha last week. So much she's almost caught up to my blueberry that is 21 days ahead. I was using FF trio nutes, but the kit I have was more for my Blueberry. From here on out it'll be jacks and Beastie Bloomz. Doing it mostly as a trial, if it works out it'll save me a little bit as well. Holy cow, she's going for the stretch, going to catch up to my blueberry in the corner. EC: 2.3 PH: 5-5-6.2

Its time to prepare for war. *Blows bagpipe* FISH SH!T THE ORGANIC SOIL CONDITIONER (used twice before and always noticed instantly) Fish Shit is a living product! It provides a complex Microbial profile that includes thousands of different species of bacteria, fungi, and protozoa. This profile is closer to a natural ecosystem than anything you will find on the market. Fish Shit helps release essential oils and terpenes which contribute to the building of a myriad of flavonoids. Flavanoids play a key role in the development of the most potent aromas and tasteful flavors of a plant and its fruit. Fish Shit contains beneficial microorganisms that help plants maximize nutrient uptake. It does this by transforming nutrients into more usable forms and keeping these nutrients in the soil longer. During photosynthesis plants naturally produce exudates (chemicals that are secreted through their roots). Through these exudates, plants can attract the types of good bacteria that are beneficial to them at different points in their growing cycle. These good bacteria cover the roots and act as a barrier to the invasion of disease-causing organisms that may harm the plant. What Are Enzymes? Before we dive headfirst into how, exactly, enzymes can benefit cannabis plants, it helps to understand a little about what these microscopic proteins do. Essentially, enzymes facilitate chemical reactions. They do so by binding with a substrate and forming or breaking molecular bonds. In this context, the substrate is the molecule upon which an enzyme acts to boost the efficiency of a reaction. •substrate /sŭb′strāt″/ •noun •The material or substance on which an enzyme acts. A surface on which an organism grows or is attached. An underlying layer; a substratum. Enzymes are proteins with complex 3D shapes that feature regions called active sites. When the substrate binds to these active sites, it forms an enzyme-substrate complex that causes a chemical reaction to take place, temporarily changing the structure of the enzyme and ultimately causing molecules to either come together or break apart. As a result, molecular products are released, and the enzyme returns to its original shape. Specific enzymes are capable of binding with certain substrates, as the substrate fits into the active site more or less via a lock-and-key principle. Although, new research suggests a more accurate theory of "induced fit", in which enzymes and substrates undergo structural changes to facilitate the reaction. If you take the human body as an example, we have an abundance of enzymes in our saliva and digestive system. These molecules bind with substrates in these regions (food particles), working to break down the food we eat into usable parts before converting them to energy. Enzymes in cannabis work in a similar way to the example highlighted above. Typically, enzymes occur in soil naturally, but if your soil mix is lacking organic material, or you're growing hydroponically, then adding enzymes directly to the substrate is crucial. By using them in cannabis growing, enzymes not only help break down essential nutrients into smaller, more readily available pieces, but they also support the digestion of dead root cells, clearing a direct path for nutrients. Overall, enzymes make it easier for your cannabis plants to absorb all the elements they need to reach their full potential. For growers, a plant that reaches its full potential means a bucketload of juicy buds come harvest. This is essential if you want to reuse a pot with old systems left over like mine. Common plant enzymes include: •Cellulase •Xylanase •Beta-glucosidase •Hemicellulase •Amidase Amino acids are a crucial, yet basic unit of protein, and they contain an amino group and a carboxylic group. They play an extensive role in the gene expression process, which includes an adjustment of protein functions that facilitate messenger RNA Nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium are the three main pillars of nutrient solutions and fertilizers, but there are countless other nutrients that your cannabis plants need to produce the best possible harvest. Amino acids are one of them. You may have noticed that amino acids get a lot of attention from bodybuilders and other athletes. That’s because they play a key role in the synthesis of protein, which, as you probably know, is super important for sports recovery and muscle growth. Amino acids are the building blocks of protein and the foundation of both plant and animal life. But what do amino acids do for cannabis? WHY IS PROTEIN IMPORTANT FOR CANNABIS? Just like proteins are important for the human body, they are equally important for the growth and development of plants. For example, proteins help plants: •Facilitate the growth of intracellular plant structures •Promote energy generation •Stimulate metabolic processes •Facilitate the absorption and transportation of nutrients So, where do plants get these vital proteins from? Well, unlike humans, plants can’t source proteins or amino acids from other organisms. Instead, they need to create their own amino acids, and then use these to build protein. That's why gardeners, much like athletes, go wild for amino acid supplements. Amino acids help plants by… • Increasing their production of chlorophyll, which ultimately improves their ability to photosynthesize • Serving as an easily absorbable form of nitrogen • Stimulating the synthesis of key vitamins • Improving their resistance to pests and diseases • Boosting the strength of their cells Amino acids also serve as the precursors to auxins, a group of plant hormones produced in the meristems—the apex of the stems where new leaves and stems are born. Auxins play a key role in the plant, activating genes for plant growth and development by triggering a multitude of vital plant functions. In other words, they determine what its size and architecture will look like. Auxins influence the development of branches, flowers, and roots, and even help to regulate the photoperiod response of the plant. Some amino acids, like cysteine, also work together with antioxidants like glutathione to help cannabis plants deal with oxidative stress, which can be caused by high-intensity lighting, some nutrient solutions, and high levels of CO₂. Unlike humans, plants can synthesize all the amino acids they need to survive and develop properly. Unfortunately, however, amino acid synthesis is a really high-energy process, and plants may struggle to produce enough amino acids when exposed to stress. WHAT FACTORS AFFECT A PLANT’S ABILITY TO SYNTHESISE AMINO ACIDS? Any kind of stress can affect a plant’s ability to produce enough amino acids. This includes: • Drought • Temperature extremes • Poor soil health • Pests • Diseases • Poor lighting • Lack of space • Poor root health WHAT DOES ALL OF THIS MEAN FOR WEED PLANTS? If you want to push your plants to their extreme in terms of floral growth and resin production, you should look into amino acid fertilizers. By making amino acids readily available to your plants, they’ll be able to use crucial energy to grow and bloom, rather than focusing on synthesizing amino acids themselves. Game of Inches, this is another Plants can absorb amino acids via their roots and leaves. They can also benefit from amino acids during both their vegetative and flowering phases. The fastest way for plants to absorb amino acids is via their leaves. The foliar application of amino acids is believed to improve the transportation of nutrients, increase transpiration, and boost photosynthesis. Hence, I recommend feeding your plants with foliar amino acid fertilizers. When doing so, however, carefully measure the amount of fertilizer you use, as—like with any nutrient—overfeeding can damage your plants. FOLIAR FEED AND SOIL SOAK • 1 crushed queen anne carrot • Add 2 tbsp of NPK Raw powdered water-soluble cane molasses • 20ml h2o2 • 1 crushed radish • 0.25 tsp NPK Enzymes • 0.25 tsp NPK Amino Acids • 50ml coconut water ( nature's own amniotic fluid packed with amino, enzymes ) + The sound of songbirds. Onto the predators 1250 -Green Lacewings Lacewings are extremely voracious predatory insects that feed on several pests. In adulthood, it feeds on pollen and nectar. In the larval stage, it feeds on aphids, thrips, and mealybugs at all stages of growth. It can also attack spider mites in moderate quantities. It is initially an aphid predator, but very effectively controls thrips and mealybugs infestations. It is so voracious that in the absence of prey, it will feed on its congeners. Lacewings are cannibalistic if there is no food available for them. It is therefore important to introduce them into an infestation situation, and not just preventively. •congener /kŏn′jə-nər/ •noun •A member of the same kind, class, or group. •An organism belonging to the same taxonomic genus as another organism. •A thing of the same kind as. or nearly allied to, another; specifically, in botany and zoology, a plant or an animal belonging to the same genus as another or to one nearly allied. Ideal temperature 20°C – 26°C Ideal humidity 60% – 70% Predatory stage life cycle 21 days Introduction rate 4 weeks Storage Refrigerator Use Immediately Are there any specific instructions on how to use this predator? Lacewings are available on small paper cards that you can hang to plant stems. On the cards are dozens of eggs ready to hatch. There are also sterile eggs they can feed on once they have hatched before they are ready to disperse in the foliage. It is important to use them quickly upon receipt to avoid cannibalism. If you don't use them right away, you can store the cards in the refrigerator for 24 to 48 hours to prevent the eggs from hatching too quickly. Avoid storing them for longer than this or you risk losing eggs. 1250 eggs are divided into 7.5 cards, 2500 eggs on 15 cards, and 5000 on 30 cards. The application rate is one card per square meter of growing surface. Is this predator best used for preventive or curative treatments? Lacewings are used as a curative solution. Anything else I should know? Lacewing eggs hatch approximately 24-72 hours after the cards are exposed to room temperature. When they emerge, the lacewings are just 1.5-2 mm long. They are very small so they are difficult to see. Once hatched, they will stay on the cards for a few hours and then disperse in the foliage. You quickly lose sight of them if you have not witnessed the hatching. They then live in the foliage for about 3 weeks. Often, you will see them towards the end of their larval cycle. After feeding for 3 weeks, they will triple and even quadruple in size. At that point, they are easier to see. But they remain very discreet insects, it is not abnormal not to see them. Egg carcasses left behind on the cards do not disappear after the hatching has happened. It's normal to see eggs still on the cards. Visually it is very similar before and after hatching. Also, on the boxes, there are sterile ephestia eggs which are used to feed the lacewings once hatched. Not all lacewing eggs are viable either. Only a certain percentage of lacewing eggs will hatch. Once hatched, the eggs are white. You can observe this using a magnifying glass. With, 5000 Stratiolaelaps Scimitus It is used to prevent or control thrips pupae, fungus gnats larvae, and root mealybugs in the soil. It can also be used for red mites in bird farms or hen houses. The adult is about 1 mm long and is medium brown with a beige triangle on its back. Another fun fact about them is they can survive without prey. They can eat algae and plant debris. This is why they can reproduce and stay in plants for long periods. Ideal temperature 15°C – 23°C Predatory stage life cycle 18 days Introduction rate 2 weeks Storage Room temperature Use Within one week Are there any specific instructions on how to use this predator? Sprinkle directly on the growing media. They can live in all types of substrates like potting soil, coconut fiber, rock wool, cedar mulch, etc. Stratiolaelaps establish easily so they are permanently fighting pests. One introduction is generally enough unless you have an infestation. In this case, introduce them at least twice at a 2-week interval for best results. If you grow your plants in a 100% mineral substrate, it will have to be released more often since there is less organic matter than in traditional soil. Do I need to take any specific precautions? Stratiolaelaps breed in the top layer of the soil. So it is important not to disturb them in the first days following their introduction. They don't like temperatures below 8 ° C. So be sure not to introduce them in a water-saturated or cold environment. Release them 24-48 hours after your last watering. They are very sensitive to chemical acaricides and diatomaceous earth. These methods are incompatible with their use.
