Finalmente el día de cosecha, la producción no fue de las más abundantes pero suficiente para mi consumo personal, bastante entretenido el cultivo en DWC, lo repetiré en mi siguiente cultivo pero con una semilla automática.

Hey! Welcome to week 8! Karen is mid way through her flowering stretch. Please check back to last week as I update daily so the week is now complete. I count about 20 colas now. Day 51: Have reconfigured the tent, see video. Karen is now 36cm and still stretching. Karen has more light now. Smell is still there hits you when you open the tent. Fertigated 2l. Day 52: Height: 39cm. Karen's scent is heavenly. I have reconfigured again and installed some upgrades. Better reflector. Much bigger carbon filter. Increased airflow. Better config. More efficient pot layout. Karen is lovely. I am grateful to her and for her, so I wrote her a little poem, I hope she liked it. "Karen! Oh Karen! The phoenix of flowers, Three lowly weeks she struggled in vain, Shadowed and starved for five hundred hours, He slowly wept to witness her pain. Karen! Oh Karen! I P-H'd your showers, and in the fourth week you started to gain, Hallowed and hard you survived as you cowered, I thought you meek, I was wrong once again. Karen! Oh Karen! Forgave me my howlers. She set a pace, a pace she maintained, Now shes a girl at the peak of her powers, And so I'm a geek, with buds on the brain." Day 53: Approx 48h into a simulated dry spell. Alright I think it is time for Karen to get her first MAJOR defoliation. I will update shortly with photos and info. I will also be doing some gentle LST to separate the colas a bit. Day 53.5: Defoliation and LST. Finally got chance to photograph that bunda. Enjoy! Day 53.75: Bit of a fail. Messed up the timer and the lights ended up being off for about 3 or 4 hours. Because I was cooling the room (open window) to keep temperature in the tent down, without any light the temperatures absolutely plummeted as it is sub-zero outside. By the time I realised and turned the lights on, the temp in the main tent had dropped to 14 degrees celsius. Whoops! How is that for mistreating your girl? Defoliated about 80% of her leaves, 4 nodes, significant LST, then stuck her in the cold and dark for 1/6 of a day. Not to mention she is now almost 3 days into a "dry spell". There do not seem to be ill effects, and Karen has already begun to respond to the LST; all the colas that had been changed in angle are now upright again. The dry spell I keep mentioning, there is a method behind my madness, I have spotted one or two small flies and I think they may be fungus gnats. I am starting to suspect that the 2nd seedling in the Purple OG Punch Auto grow was actually beheaded by fungus gnat larvae. So I am drying out the mediums as much as I dare. I am closely monitoring the plants, so far the only one I have had to break the drought for is Enigma; all the girls in big pots haven't even noticed it's dry yet. How far am I going to push it? Well I will judge it on a plant by plant basis, but quite honestly I am hoping to see physical signs of thirst before I breakdrought. Of all the plants the two I think will respond most strongly to this will be Karen and Bertha, because of where they are. Karen here is actually probably 4 weeks into flowering rather than two, so about now is a good time to give her a little hydration stress. I do not think I will push it past 5 days, as RH is 34%. By now all the plants will be compensating for the lack of moisture and the high temperatures and low humidity. They will be taking more and more moisture out of the coco, and as the coco dries further and further down, those plants that have space will start desperately growing roots to find moisture. Mark my words, 24 hours after I end this drought, every plant in the tent will throw out crazy growth. Day 54: Ended drought and fertigated 6l, no run off, I will re-fertigate tomorrow. Karen is still stretching her height post LST is now 37cm. The two tallest colas seem to have stopped but the other colas are still stretching. Day 55: Alright so it has been 5 hours since lights on, and Karen is looking in good shape, all her drooping leaves have perked back up and she has added quite a bit of foliar growth. The colas are all still rising, except perhaps the two tallest. This girl is absolutely loaded with pistils, I'm starting to see trichomes on the sugar leaves, but trich production hasn't started in earnest yet. She has a least 20 colas, and 6 of them are thicker/taller than the primary cola at her tip. Every one of her nodes has reinforced itself with a bulbous growth and these cola branches are swelling rapidly. I am increasingly of the opinion that, all being well, this girl is going to surprise us all with her yield. My first grow, which was just mucking about really, I got 60-70g of the two main plants, and they were just bare sticks with 2 colas. Although her height is less than theirs was, 2/3 of their height was bare stick... whereas every mm of her is befoliaged and living. So in terms of the height of the actual cola I think they were about comparable in usable space on a per cola basis. The main difference being that Karen has 20+ colas whereas they had 2 primary and 2 lower. I know that it is probably unrealistic to expect more than 70g from a single auto grown indoors. Nevertheless my gut tells me this baby could achieve at least 100g, perhaps as much as 150g. The next few weeks will determine that, but given where we were in week 3 I will be grateful for any yield of quality bud. I have dropped the lights down to 18/6 from 'tonight' onwards. I really have no idea how long we have left for Karen. According the the "brochure" she flowers for 7-8 weeks, with a total crop time of 9 weeks. The problem is I don't know what a total crop time is? Does that mean from seed to finish? If so Karen is clearly not going to be anywhere near that timescale.I am going to go ahead an assume that, for my plant anyway, the first 4 weeks were veg weeks. I think it is fair to count week 5 and 6 as flowering because pistils were popping out very early in week 5 if not before. So that makes this week four of flowering. I am going to assume 8 weeks rather than 7, so I think we have another 4 full weeks give or take a week. On that basis I am expect harvest week to be around week 12 or so. I am not fixed on this though, I am determined not to harvest this girl early. Day 55: Photos taken 00:00 9/3/23 Strong 24h of veg growth as predicted. Day 56: Existing leaves continue to swell. Stretch appears to be slowing. I've taken so many media this week that I cannot scroll down far enough to select a recent thumbnail. Probably Karen's biggest week in terms of changes. She is looking like she is going to impress. Height 39cm.

Nach ein paar Schwierigkeiten am Haus die nun beseitigt sind geht es nun nahtlos weiter 👍 Diesmal in Blütewoche 3 zum Start gleich mit dem Infrarotmatten Upgrade von Calorique 100x50cm (110w) in Verbindung mit Thermostat das nach Feintuning nun gut eingestellt ist was man auch direkt am Durst der Damen merkt 😁🤚 Es geht mit Blühkomplex von hesi weiter und teilweise auch mit Alfa Boost bei Bedarf natürlich pH angepasst Und der kleinen Reihe an Plagron zusätzen wie zum Beispiel CalMag Es wird bald radikal entlaubt(für meine Verhältnisse 😄)und auch kleine Triebe werden weichen müssen da ich es versuchen werde flach zu halten und das Scrognetz als Stütze nutzen werde/möchte 🌝 die Mutti wurde aussortiert aber ihr geht's gut in ihrem eigenen "space" Die infrarotmatte steht mit einem von mir angefertigtem Lattenrost🤫😄 in dem 120er Zelt naturbelassen Fichte unkompliziert aber für die Wärmeverteilung und erhalt super 👍 ( der Geruch erinnert etwas an die alte NDL Zeit/Hitze im guten Sinne haha. Die LEDs laufen mit etwa 500ppfd gleichmäßig auf beiden Seiten und werden die nächsten Wochen langsam nach oben geschraubt 💫. Es geht entspannt weiter bis dahin 🌱👍? Liebe Grüße 🌿

Hello, I flipped her over to 12/12 on Saturday 8/7/23. Changed nutrients on Wednesday 12/7/23 to flowering line, just wanted to use up all the veg nute's & I've also read some where it can help with & promote flowering stretch? Modified scrog net to make square's smaller, was 5×5inch , now 2.5×2.5inch square's, holds the stems better & seperate's them more. Done some light defoliation to remove large shade leaves covering Bud sites. Super cropped some small branches to train them in the direction I want them to go, to fill up large empty spaces. Could have done Lst bending, but I like to try new training & grow methods each grow to put the theory I've learnt into practice to better myself as a grower, so it's super cropping HST this grow. Please drop me a like & a comment 😀 & I will come & check out your grow as well. Thanks HI-AZ.

In size they grow ;) attempting to keep mainlining and light defoliation. biggest plants starting to flower up. gonna feed her with bio pk, next watering sensing that the other plant is a little week behind. 24-05 sweet cheese got her first dose of biopk

☀️MARSHYDRO LED 😎 💯

8. Woche Läuft soweit gut, Z-Up ist aktiv am Bloom produzieren 😊

Week 11 for Kalini Asia by Zamnesia seeds, Shes looking just prefect where she is right now. Im thinking 2 more weeks and she will be more than ready to flip to flower. Would just like her to get a little bit wider so light can get to the lowers too.

Day 64 the queens got some fertilizer 💪😃👍

Lunes 19 de Agosto 2024 Se le aplico la semana pasada aparte de bases ph perfect un poco de Armor Si y CaliMagic pará reforzar su estructura.

So this is a combination of weeks 11-12 as they all went into 48 hours of darkness and cut down on different days. My got cut down on different days. Will post dry harvest pics next ;p

I am not on facebook instagram twitter etc All accounts except this one are fake. Have fun with the update. Flowering day 2 since time change to 12/12 h. Hey everyone :-). Yesterday it was put into bloom and can now develop beautifully 👍😃. In the next few days I will remove the bottom shoots and add 2 g GHSC Powder Feeding Bio Bloom per l cocos. Of course, cuttings were cut into the flower before moving 👍. I wish you a lot of fun with the update.

Buenos días familia, finalizamos la segunda semana y es que van a muy buen ritmo están bastante sanas y sin problemas. Ph controlado en 6,2 poco a poco iremos alimentándolas ya que tienes algo menos de tiempo que el resto. La temperatura es ideal al día, por la noche algo baja pero sin problemas mayores.

Lost medipak#2. Just suddenly kicked the bucket. Oh well. Such is life! It might have been a fungus issue...The other 2 medipak are cruising. The 4 indigo childs are looking really nice. Very excited to see what they look like in 3 weeks

Topped her to third node to prepare her for manifolding. Cut off the tip as well as the branches on the second node. Had to move the camera up again since she's growing so fast 😁

Week 13 day 1 15/4/26 Lovely growth all round. Fattening up nicely. Still very compact but is spreading out slowly. Think shes just more on the indica dominated side Week 13 day 4 18/4/26 switched nutrients out to horti rawk again, this time 60g lot ended up at 2.8 e.c exactly so around 1400ppm @ 500, lowered to 2.1 e.c, will let her climb up to around 2.4, will have on for 72hrs then flush and refill, coming up to almost the end of this dairy and she is looking absolutely gorgeous, smells delicious, almost starting to have a candy profile to it with a permanent undertone. Week 13 day 7 Switched out horti rawk to normal flower nutes, sitting at 1.9-2e.c, ph 5.8-9. Will probably do one more horti rawk hit then finish with winter frost by new millennium then onto a normal water flush. ( 2-3 week time frame )

Day 63: Another week passes and the girls are now building nice long Colas all over . Buds are looking good and smelling so pineapple/fruity now. Buds are looking nice and hairy without looking airy. #1 In the organic soil is overall the widest and area hungry lady but her sisters are taller . #2 has been quietly pushing her way through the middle position in the grow and has some nice fat looking buds forming. #3 Is a surprise for me as I wasnt sure it would make it this far. No matter what I do , the leaf continues to look awful but the size of her and her now forming so many stacking buds , I am glad I kept her going now !. I do think at least 3 weeks for these ladies before harvest but hope to give them room to swell when the space is opened up.

Leaves turned yellow so we took her away from direct sunlight. She has not been watered for 3 days and the yellow spots seem to be going away. We are still not sure about keeping her on the shadow or taking her back to direct sunlight.

Watering: 06/29 - 1l with 0.5 ml bacteria/mycorrhizae each 07/03 - 1l with 0.5 ml bacteria/mycorrhizae + 1g enmiflora each

Looks a beast I minimise handling and hang whole mius a few larger fan leaves so no wet weight but she's got lovley big colas full of frost with a pungent cheesy aroma. Great plant all in all. An early tester I tried smoked great so looking forward to the slow dried version from my dry tent. Parameters are good in ther at 19°c with the humidity set to 55% for the first two days then I up to 60% for the remaining 10 days or so. Then we cure in jars, burping regularly till a stable 62% is reached and then into heat sealed grove bags. I'll check in with the final report after the cure. Almost exactly 11 weeks from seed. Thanks for reading 🙏
