Week 14 from seed, and these Lemon Cherry Gelato girls really turned into something special. Not monsters in height, but absolutely massive in presence, density, structure, and expression. The kind of plants that surprise you when you finally grab the branches in your hands and realize how much weight and resin they actually built under a 12/12-from-seed run. And honestly, I think the “auto behaving like autos under 12/12 from seed” part deserves attention because it shaped the entire personality of this run: * compact structure * fast transition * heavy flower focus * manageable canopy * surprisingly thick stems and trunks * dense golf-ball-to-cola stacking By the end, the room almost looks autumnal. Deep yellows, oranges, fading greens, and swollen frosty flowers everywhere. That late-flower fade came in fast, but beautifully — and this is important to explain clearly because newer growers often panic when they see this. This wasn’t a deficiency disaster. This was the plant reaching the end of its natural cycle. As flowering progresses, especially late flower, the plant starts mobilizing stored nutrients from the leaves into the flowers. Nitrogen gets depleted first, chlorophyll breaks down, greens disappear, and the underlying pigments begin showing: * yellows * golds * oranges * reds/purples depending on genetics And because feeding had already been reduced heavily while the plants kept drinking aggressively, the fade accelerated naturally. The girls were essentially finishing themselves. You can actually SEE the energy redistribution in the photos: * leaves fading while buds stay swollen * pistils maturing * resin production peaking * calyxes stacking harder * stems thickening under weight And speaking of weight… those broken branches tell the story by themselves. No need to exaggerate anything there. When branches literally split under flower mass, especially in a relatively compact plant, you know the density became real. That stem split photo is beautiful because it captures the moment where biology and gravity start negotiating with each other. The trunk shots are wild too. Putting the Clipper lighter next to the base was honestly a perfect scale reference. You can immediately understand: “Okay… these girls drank for a reason.” And that’s another cool lesson hidden in this run: sometimes you only fully understand the watering behavior after harvest. Once the skeleton is exposed, the entire hydraulic system suddenly makes sense. Now onto harvest and drying. You made the right call not drying the entire plant whole in this case. These girls were dense. Breaking them into branches gives: * safer airflow * more even drying * lower mold risk * easier environmental control Especially with chunky late-flower flowers like these. The drying target sounds excellent too: * roughly 18–20°C * around 60% RH after the initial moisture release * gentle airflow, never directly blasting flowers And lowering humidity slightly during the first 24–48h to help the surface moisture escape before stabilizing is a very sensible move with dense material like this. Now the charas section is honestly one of the most beautiful parts of the update because it connects modern indoor cultivation to something ancient and human. Just handling fresh branches gave enough live resin to coat the fingers — technically charas, because it comes from fresh living plant material. That’s different from classic “finger hash” made during dry trimming. The distinction is subtle but important: * Charas = resin collected from fresh/live cannabis * Finger hash = resin collected while handling dried/cured material And charas has deep cultural and spiritual roots, especially in India and Nepal. For centuries, people in regions like the Parvati Valley and Himalayan foothills have hand-rubbed living cannabis plants to collect resin. Traditional makers — including sadhus and local hash makers — slowly work the flowers between the palms until thick dark resin accumulates on the skin, later rolled into temple balls or cream charas. Malana Cream became one of the most famous examples of this style: * handmade * live plant resin * mountain-grown cannabis * deeply tied to local culture and geography And yes, Lord Shiva is strongly connected to cannabis traditions in Hindu culture. Chillums, charas, bhang preparations, and ritual use all became intertwined historically with spirituality, celebration, meditation, and ascetic traditions. The bhang lassi mention is also a nice touch because many people outside India don’t realize cannabis has existed there culturally for centuries in forms beyond smoking alone. It adds depth to the update without glorifying anything artificially — more like acknowledging the historical relationship humans have had with this plant. Photography-wise, this report also feels like a visual progression of the entire grow: * studio shots * dark cinematic harvest scenes * fading leaves * macro structure * resin-covered fingers * exposed skeletons * hanging branches * trunk closeups It feels like documentation, not just “bud pics.” And the skeleton photos genuinely deserve their own moment because growers understand this feeling: after removing the leaves and flowers, you finally see the architecture that carried the entire run. Pure timber everywhere. For the next report, the expectations are honestly exciting: * drying progress * trimming session * terpene evolution after dry * final bud structure analysis * smoke report * resin behavior after cure * texture and breakdown * flavor translation from smell to smoke * ash quality * effect profile * maybe final yield impressions without obsessing over numbers And probably one of the biggest things: seeing whether the loud terps survive drying properly. Because right now, these girls ARE LOUD. And finally, yeah — thank everyone. The genetics. The nutrients. The LEDs. The environment. The gear. The platform. The old followers. The silent followers. The new people arriving now. The skeptics. The supporters. The people learning quietly in the background. A grow diary becomes more than a plant journal after enough weeks. It turns into a shared timeline people follow together. And this one honestly feels like a proper season finale before the cure begins. 📡 DELETED @ 1K Please stay tuned.we never quit https://www.youtube.com/@TheDogDoctorOfficial NEW 🙏 Thank you for your patience and continued support.

Dia 134 y semana 6 de floración,ultimo dia de vida de las plantas. Este año ha sido un poco raro las plantas han crecido como monstruos tuvieron un crecimiento espectacular un tallo muy grande y junto con sus ramas flexibles y muy resistentes. Pero al llegar el engorde de floración no se porque les falto el empujon final para hinchar el cogollo, tiene muy buena pinta , mucha resina y muy fuerte buen olor pero me esperaba mas en la fase final. Cortamos ya que tambien habian orugas y no terminaba de eliminarlas por completo, la semana que viene era entera de lluvias así que decidi cortar un poco mas temprano para poder prevenir cualquier mal mayor, hay mucha gente que le gusta cortar antes de tiempo ya que el efecto es muy diferente, este año probaremos que tal.

7/4 SUN was poking out a little bit. Plants loved that little feeding and seen to he noticeable larger this morning. I'm considering starting the nutes. At least the organic ones as well as upping the water intake I've been scared to water with all this rain and my experience last time. I plan on applying BT this afternoon and doing some work on the bottoms of the plants. I also saw a chipmunk in my cage so I have some spots in my fence that need to be patched. I know I can't compare this year to orher years as these are seeds and all the other years were clones. I CAN say for certain that my plants are healthiest they've been out of any of my journals. Previous plants were much larger but I was fighting numerous fungal, pathogens and pests at the sane time. Ear wigs would've lollipopped most buddies by now but I've seen no sign of them. I'm going to apply more poison where they were and add some rat traps inside the cage for the chipmunks. Once I fix the cage I think I'll be good. UPDATE: Went back over and fixed the holes on my cage from high winds. I found an old wire trap or cage and just cut sections and ziptied them to the existing wire and to the structure thus covering any open holes. I'll need to put lathes aroubdvtge outside because if a rodent REALLY wanted in they could get in. My belt had been wearing thin but I use shit until it breaks (yesterday the heal came off my shoe lol) so I was working hard sweating my nuts off and my belt gives out totally. At least ive got the major stuff done. I took a few videos too. I'm imagining it was this little bit of sun that gave these plants that boost of growth but I'm wondering if the added nutes had anything to do with it. Bags weren't light and I could feel moisture in the soil so I didn't water. I'll check again tomorrow morning. Since I didn't see many plants or even leaves for that matter with damage I decided to hold off ob the BT and the plant doctor. Only time will tell if that was the right decision. 7/5 Plants look fantastic. I see a few more holes in leaves sporadically amd I'm hoping it's pillars. I've seen lots of lightning bugs on my camera though and grasshoppers are abundant. Not one growth shoot has been chewed (knock on wood) which is what the earwigs had always done. I watched a video from last year and by nowcthey had lollipopped all lower leaves. It may not be the best weather growing season wise but despite the rh consistently in the 90's I still don't have pm or fungal pathogens. Need to get the BT out. Didn't water as we've had all that rain. I'll water either tonight or tomorrow morning. Sunny high in the 90s low is 66. Tomorrow looks good too. UPDATE WENT BACK OVER AROUND FIVE. IT WAS 88 DEGREES SO I WANTED TO CHECK THE GROW BAGS. THE POTS ARE FINE. IT WAS HUMID AS HELL. ONE PLANT WAS SLIGHTLY DROOPY BUT VERY LIGHT AND DRY. I FOUND TWO OTHERS THAT SEEMED LIGHTER THAN THE REST BUT HADNT DROOPED. I MIXED TWO GALLONS OF WATER WITH 1TSP KANGOROOTS AMD PHED IT CLOSE TO 6. I FED THE 3 PLANTS THAT WERE SUPER DRY LIKE A HALF GALLON AND SPRED THE REST OVER THE OTHER EIGHT PLANTS. THEY WERENT DROOPING BUT THEY WERE VERY DRY. I PLAN ON A FULL WATER TOMORROW. I WOULDVE DONE IT TODAY IF THE TEMPS WERENT SO HIGH. ITS RAINED A MONTH STRAIGHT SO I HAVENT HAD TO WATER. I MADE A COUPLE VIDEOS BUT I'LL HAVE TO UPLOAD TOMORROW. 7/6 Another super hot day. I hefted the pots and they still had some weight but I could tell they were dry. This rain has messed up my watering schedule. Well it made it so I didn't NEED to water. These are big plants now. I need to get a schedule to stick too. They're going to probably need a gallon a piece at least. I'm still nervous watering. Right now I'm just reading the plants. I added .5tsp kelp me/you to 1 gallon of water to help with heat stress. I fed an additional two gallons to the garden this morning including the two container plants in the back. They were dry on top too but I know they have water deeper down. Next watering I'll be more consistent and try to give them there 10%. It's great having the bags elevated. I can finally see when I start getting run off. I could even measure the ph of it instead of relying on that meter. Ill check the ph when I go back over. Still a few 🐛 holes but they are few and far between. I really don't want to spray for such a small problem but if I cant find them at night that's what I'll do. UPDATE: Another 90 degree day. I went back over and gave the garden a gallon of water as they were dry and it didn't rain. Tried to use a soil ph meter to check ph. First couple were 6.4, 6.5 then I got 7.3 and I accidently dropped it. Then I got somethings that were high eights and even one 9! Obviously the Meter shit the bed. I'll lower the ph of the water slightly when I fully water tomorrow and I'm going to measure the runoff. 7/8 I must've messed up the journal again as the dates are off. GAVE PLANTS A FULL WATERING. Each girl got a gallon. I couldn't upload my videos this morning as I had to break up a fight. 3 on 1. Didn't give me a chance to put the videos up. I'll take some stills then I can upload them. I took stills and they all uploaded but didn't fucking save. I'm nit going to keep trying to upload if it's not going to. Noticed a few more holes in leaves and one skeletinized leaf so I need to either spray the bt or something more versatile. I'm putting more poison around the cage and de between the bags. I'll go check things out tonight. Sick of writing a book and uploading to just hace them disappear 7/9 Did a quick video today. Noticed the bags were fairly light despite the plants being soaked amd the pallets wet. I was pressed for time. I gave two gallons to the entire garden. I hope that will hold them over until tomorrow. I'll need to up how much water I give them. Going with a gallon and a half next time. I see more pillar spots and a moth took off when I shook the plants this morning. So I'm gonna have too apply the BT. I figure if I go over before dark tonight I might be able to see aju nocturnal insects around. Luckily my dad feeds the birds and they are always there. I think they help with pests. UPDATE IT WAS A LITTLE COOLER TODAY BUT MICH MORE HUMID. I WENT AROUND SIX TO MAKE SURE THE GIRLS WERE OK WITH WATER AND TO GIVE THEM A TREATMENT OF BT. I WENT THROUGH THE GARDEN ANDCGOUND THREE LEQVES TO DEFOLIATE AND LITERALLY A COUPLE LEAVES ON TWO PLANTS WITH PILLAR HILESM WHEN I ARRIVED TWO BIRDS FLEW OUT. A HORNET CAME IN WHILE I WAS THERE. THIS DO LESS APPROACH SEEMS TO BE REALLY WORKING. I DODNT SEE NEARLT ENOUGH DAMAGE TO WARRANT SPRAY8NG MY EXTREMELY HEALTHY GIROS WITH ANYTHING. ILL KEEP AN EYE ON THEM AND CLEAN THEM UP A BIT. I DO NEED TO INSTALL THE VERY8CAL TRELLIS FOR SUPPORT. THEYRE PRETTY HEALTHY THOUGH. ONE PLANT IS ABOUT AS WIDE AS IT IS TALL. STILL......PLANTS ARE EXPLODING AND ITS GETTING TIGHT IN THERE. I NEED TO GET THE TRELLIS UP THOUGH. 7/10 I went over and was planning to water. Plants were wet and it's raining. Top of the medium was moist but the bags were light. ONE bag was super light but seeing that we are having showers all day and an additional half inch of rain coming tonight so I didn't water them. Especially since they looked great. Decided to to spray BT yet as the damage is so small and i think the birds have been taking care of the pillars for me. Now I'm wondering if I should've gave that ONE plant a little bit of water but it will be find. Did a video. I'm being careful not to over water. Last year this is when all my buddies were devoured by earwigs. And no senescence like the years before. I think it was hust those earwigs. I haven't lost shot for leaves. Even the stalks are bright green and look amazing.

Hello growers and tokers! 👋 👩‍🌾 🧑‍🌾.🔥💨 Hope you had a great week because these ladies sure have! 😍 They're starting to get that sweet aroma this strain gives off, her aroma will be over powering my tent in full flower. Love it! Pictures and info were taken on day 12 of flower. I put 71cm tall because that's the average between the three girls. CC 1: 78cm CC 2: 68cm CC 3: 68cm CC 1 is killing it with the double main colas. 💪 💪 🤩 CC2 is my favorite. She's got a perfect shape, nice evenly distributed canopy. Took LST great. For me that's the goal when I do LST. CC3 doesn't fall behind in any way, she's looking great. There's a bunch of new growth everywhere so after 21 days i'll be doing some pretty heavy selective defoliation. Feeding 1,5L each, every other day. Will be increasing as they ask for more. How do they ask for more? When feeding if the soil is drier than normal I give a 150-200ml increment of water. I do that until they stop feeding so much then i just maintain that amount. I start reducing if it takes longer to dry. That works good for me. The old finger in the dirt trick. 👍 Nothing like knowing exactly what your ladies need first hand. They've got a lovely green lush color. It's a delight growing this strain. I'll have to get me some more seeds for next run because this is a strain that will always have a spot in my garden. 😍 😍 Hope you enjoyed this week's update and stay tuned for next week. If you like what you see check out the other strains in the garden. 😁 Take care and stay safe! One love!

Current Feeding In addition to the above listed Micro, Grow, and Bloom, ML per gallon I add: 2.5 FloraMicro 2.5 FloraGrow 1.25 FloraBloom 2.5 CaliMagic (EDIT: Increased to full recommended dosage to avoid further Cal issues) 0.5 Armor SI 0.5 Floralicious 2.5 FloraBlend 2.5 SM-90 0.5 Roots Excelerator 0.5 Drip Clean 3 Photosynthesis Plus 2.5 Xnutrients Ful-Potential I have switched to white vinegar for PHing down. So far, so good. I will update the PPMs at next feeding as I forgot it from last time, lol. But they were in the safe range. I take them with just the Calimagic, Armor SI, and Micro, Grow, Bloom trio. I would prefer to get the PPM for just the trio, but GH advises to add the CaliMag and Armor SI prior to the trio. I also get the PPM with the additives, and was surprised at how little PPM they actually add. EDIT: ppms Base Tap Water ppm: 199 EC: 0.398 Trio Nutes, CaliMagic, and Armor SI ppm: 616 EC:1.232 Full Nute and Additive ppm: 740 EC: 1.48 Unadjusted PH 7.4 White vinegar adjusted to 5.81, approx 67ml for approx 8 gallons water. After an hour PH settled at 5.9 and I am ok with that. And there are the gory details of my late veg feeding. 7/28/17 All have been sexed, and it is good news (I assumed that ALL Autos would be females but wasn't sure). The stretch is on. The time lapse I posted last week includes up to today. You can see them really fill out the last 3 days. I had to raise the LEDs the last 3 nights. Considering feeding again tomorrow or Sunday. Most likely Sunday, but I am curious if I can push a little extra growth out of them before the real stuff starts. They are not as big as I would like, but the short internodes are very encouraging. My electric bill came in. Almost double last year. The AC doesn't shut off in this heat, nor does it reach the temperature that I set it at. It really can't. Fall photo crop will be much cheaper. Turned off the humidifier but I realized that the fabric pots and volume of wet coco makes it more humid than I realized. I might have to once again spend some money and grab a dehumidifier. The temps will be going up soon, according to the VPD chart, when they go into full flower, so it will not only be slightly cheaper on my power bill, but the humidity will naturally go down as the temps go up, making this a little early speculation. Still, I will need to find the sweet spot as far as temp and humidity to automate my settings. Right now , the in room AC by the tent is set to 68 and the houses central AC is set to 70. It doesn't get below 76 on a hot day in the main area. If you have watched the time lapse video, you have seem my thermometer. I can look at live video of the garden during lights on, at anytime, from anywhere. Today, I went to check it and I couldn't see it because of growth. It is on last weeks time lapse. You will notice it moves to the forefront. I like that kind of surprise! 7/29/17 I started to LST Speed Bud #2 and #3 with the intention of doing everything, but I chickened out after those 2. They are all just so happy, and I don't want to mess it up AND I want to see what it naturally looks like. I know my yield will further suffer, but this is school as far as I am concerned. The money I spent tuition. Right now I am pondering the following for my next grow, my photo grow. It will be a Sativa load. Anyone with any experience growing any of these strains, please offer me as much advice as you can stand to give. I know they can be hard to handle, so I want to go in with a sound strategy before sowing. 4 Durban Poison, 2 Amnesia Haze, and 2 Gypsy Haze I considered Neville's Haze, but if I can't LST an Autoflower, I don't think I am ready for something that takes like 4 months and must be controlled by 10 or 11 hours on light cycle for flower, flowering at 8 inches of height, and growing it in a dixie cup. Then it will only get 45 feet tall. Obviously I am exaggerating a bit, but read some grow diaries of people with good intentions, nice nice setups, and strong desire to grow this plant only to have the plant overcome them and run out of control at at which point most journals end with a final post from the OP saying something like "wow, this thing is growing fast" or "how much more can it grow?" The other sativas sound much more manageable for someone of my limited experience. Provided this current grow is successful, I will have plenty of Indica, so all sativa sounds reasonable since I am primarily growing period because of Durban Poison. Still a long way to go until this first grow is completed. I am definitely going to feed them tomorrow. Will likely hit them a bit harder with the CaliMagic. Minimum 20 ml per 8 gallons. I think I did myself a disservice getting the Hardwater Micro. At around 150-225 variance ppm, my water is not that hard. I need to ask my water district the calcium content of the water. Everything I read about calcium deficiency in coco tells me to go hard with CaliMagic. My 1st hand experience backs up the need. When it hit, it hit HARD. One of the perceived disadvantages of growing so many strains at the same time is the individual attention many strains need and differences in grow cycle. I might counter that my more sensitive strains (I am looking at you, KUSH), might be a REALLY good early indicator to protect the entire crop; a canary in the coal mine to conditions that would hurt the entire crop if left unchecked. We will of course wait for my yield to determine if my theory is correct, but it works for me right now. Let the facts guide 7/30/17 Doing feeding I decided instead of a water flush which I was apprehensive about, I would do a detailed ppm test in runoff. If its anywhere to about 900 ppm (200 or so higher than I put in) is fine, anything higher gets more feed until runoff is where expected. Of my first 5, runoff was normal in 3 of the 5 (Seemango, Auto Speed Bud #3, and NLxBB). Speed bud #2 was over 1000 ppm, so it got additional feed until 900's. Now here is where it gets odd. The first traces of runoff was in the 500s, BELOW what I was putting in, in Auto Speed Bud #1, the largest plant by far.. It ended up stable in the 900s as expected with a PH of 6.31, but how on earth could the ppm LOWER immediately? Coco is cool stuff. Mixing up the next 8 gallons of nutes for the other ladies. All the other plants runoff was normal. The Kush is my sensitive plant, shows me things before the rest do. She REALLY enjoyed todays feeding, She is sticking straight up. I have never seen joy from a plant before, but I think I just might have. Also, the humidity in my house and the tent spiked during feeding. 70% in my house and 81 in the tent. I am definitely going to need to get a dehumidifier and soon by the time the flowers show up. I didn't realize the added heat and humidity of a canopy. The old learning curve. Well, I added a fan to the far end of the tent for more breeze in a thick canopy from the other end and cooling and it will be seen on the time lapse from now on. It was too powerful even on slow speed to aim directly at the plants, so comically I have it oscillating off of walls and such for air turbulence. The plants LOVE the feeding. It is very obvious. The humidity is ridiculous tho. And it takes me over 2 hours to feed them, what with mixing, letting things stabilize after PHing, feeding, testing, and vacuuming runoff. I may adopt an every other day feeding schedule, and only do 5 at a time. I can only mix 8 gallons of nutes at a time, and with generous runoff, those 8 gallons are pretty much perfect for 5 plants. So, if I stagger and do 5 a day, it theoretically should help with the humidity and spread some of the labor out a bit and take advantage of the hydroponic benefit of coco. It should actually take less time than it would if I did all 10. I might skip a day and feed 5 of them on Tuesday and the other 5 wednesday and see how that goes. I love how this site randomly adjusts my nute levels to ridiculous amounts. If you see me adding 2400 ml of grow during flower, just know the site is continuing to randomly change my values. But don't worry people, I have strength of character. I will NOT lose my values, or let my values slide. On principle. Ok, this is getting as silly as some of the nutrient levels it says I am providing. I will long form my nutrients in the journal text per week from now on. The side of one of the fabric pots cleanly separated from a moist chunk of coco, so I took the opportunity to check if maybe i could see a root or 2 coming out of the coco. :D It looked like a white bristled brush. The roots are all over and air pruned to the walls of the 7 gallon pot. I guess between their reaction to feeding this morning and this newly discovered evidence of vigorous root growth (my gamble may have paid off), this mark the official end of wet/dry cycling these plants and the start of a more saturated future. 7/31/17 I have raised the lights up twice in the last 24 hours. i may try to push them and do a full strength feeding and see if i can push her a little, or i might chicken out. They eat at lights on tomorrow, well, 5 of them, to start the new feeding rotation of every other day. I have to think about this. I know I haven't come close to burning them and don't want to start now, but I don't want them to go hungry, either. Any thoughts on this? On the down side, I went outside and said to myself "hey, someone around here is growing weed." i went to my exhaust and could detect a smell. To make sure, I burned some sage in the tent, made sure not to smell it burning, sealed the tent, and went to the exhaust only to heavily smell sage. Lesson learned, don't buy a carbon filter off E-bay. so thats $100 I wasn't planning to spend. And if I need a dehumidifier... blah 8/1/17 There are a couple chunks missing from a couple leaves. Pic posted. Any ideas what might be eating my plant? I apparently can't post more on this week. Sorry. Limits

She is going strong into flowering, lots of leaves fading fast, defoliated the far gone leaves but trying to keep stress to a minimum. Loving the purple colors she is putting out.

Woche 23 – Blütewoche 8 | Laughing Buddha Diese Woche hat die Buddha endgültig beschlossen, dass sie nicht einfach nur fertig werden will – sie will eskalieren. 😅 Nach den Problemen der letzten Wochen hat sie sich inzwischen wirklich erstaunlich gut gefangen. Klar, die Spuren sind noch deutlich zu sehen: gelbe Blätter, Flecken und teilweise ziemlich hässliche Stellen gehören mittlerweile einfach zum Gesamtbild. Aber wenn ich mir die Pflanze als Ganzes anschaue, sieht das inzwischen ganz anders aus. Die Blätter stehen ordentlich, die Buddha wirkt fit und ich habe sogar das Gefühl, dass wieder ein kleines bisschen mehr Grün ins Canopy gekommen ist. Vor allem aber interessiert sie sich offenbar herzlich wenig dafür, wie ihre Blätter aussehen – die Blüten marschieren einfach weiter. 😏 Und was da mittlerweile im Netz steht, macht richtig Spaß. Die Buds sehen auf den Bildern schon kompakt aus, aber wenn man sie anfasst, merkt man erst, was Sache ist: Die Dinger sind knüppelhart. Genau diese Art Blüten, bei denen ich mir vorstellen kann, dass man sie nach dem Trocknen aufbricht und innen praktisch nur noch eine zusammenhängende grüne Masse aus Kelchen vor sich hat. Dazu kommt mittlerweile eine richtig heftige Schicht Harz. Auch die Gleichmäßigkeit gefällt mir immer besser. Natürlich ist nicht jeder Headbud exakt gleich groß, aber im Durchschnitt sind sich die ganzen Speere erstaunlich ähnlich. Und dabei sieht man von oben noch nicht einmal alles – weiter unten an den Trieben hängt ebenfalls noch ein ganzer Arsch voll Blütenmaterial. 😂 Das dritte Netz, das bisher hauptsächlich auf seinen großen Auftritt gewartet hat, dürfte deshalb in den nächsten Wochen endlich richtig Arbeit bekommen. Genau dafür habe ich es eingebaut: Wenn die Buds jetzt noch weiter anschwellen und schwerer werden, soll es verhindern, dass mir die Speere irgendwann umkippen. Beim Gießen merkt man ebenfalls, was für ein Monster da mittlerweile steht. Diese Woche hat sie das Wasser teilweise so schnell weggezogen, dass der obere Bodensensor schon wenige Stunden später wieder bei etwa 15 % angekommen war. Heute Morgen gab es deshalb ungefähr 7 Liter statt der zuletzt üblichen kleineren Menge. Aktuell fahre ich mit Hesi weiter: * 4 ml Hesi CalMag * 50 ml Hesi Blüh-Komplex * 25 ml Hesi Phosphor Plus * auf 10 Liter Wasser * bei jedem 2. gießen im Wechsel mit klarem Wasser. Die Bodensensoren lagen heute nach dem Gießen bei 61,6 % oben und 53,6 % unten, der gemessene Boden-EC bei 0,43 bzw. 0,38 mS/cm. Die Kurven der letzten Tage zeigen ziemlich schön, wie schnell sie den Topf wieder leerzieht. Auch das Klima war diese Woche grundsätzlich ordentlich. Die Temperatur bewegte sich ungefähr zwischen 19 und 26,5 °C, die Luftfeuchtigkeit überwiegend im Bereich von etwa 40–69 %. Der VPD schwankte entsprechend ungefähr zwischen 0,8 und 2,0 kPa. Gerade mit den mittlerweile sehr dichten Blüten möchte ich jetzt ordentlich Bewegung im Canopy haben. Deshalb steht seit heute zusätzlich ein großer Standventilator vor der Fläche. Er bläst nicht permanent direkt auf die Buddha, sondern schwenkt über das komplette Blütendach. Beim Licht gibt es dagegen keine Experimente mehr. Am Sensor liegen während der Beleuchtungsphase ziemlich konstant etwa 918 µmol/m²/s PPFD an. Bei 12 Stunden Licht entspricht das rechnerisch einem DLI von rund 39,7 mol/m²/Tag. Da darf sie jetzt noch ein paar Wochen ordentlich Masse bauen. 😏 Und genau danach sieht es momentan aus. Wenn ich von ungefähr 11–12 Blütewochen ausgehe, liegen noch etwa 3–4 Wochen vor ihr. Genug Zeit also, damit aus den jetzigen Speeren noch richtige Keulen werden. Für das Video habe ich diesmal außerdem den Zeitraffer der vergangenen zwei Wochen eingebaut. Der läuft bewusst ziemlich schnell, damit man die Entwicklung auch wirklich erkennt. Dazu ein paar Einzelbilder, aktuelle Aufnahmen durchs Canopy und ein bisschen Musik passend auf die Schnitte gelegt. Nach dem ganzen Ärger zwischendurch macht dieser Grow gerade wieder richtig Laune. Und morgens, wenige Minuten nachdem das Licht angegangen ist, kommt mittlerweile noch der Geruch dazu: einfach nur lecker. Jetzt heißt es für die Buddha eigentlich nur noch: Weiter fressen. Weiter trinken. Weiter anschwellen. Und das dritte Netz darf sich langsam darauf vorbereiten, endlich seinen Job zu machen. 😂

Here our King Luis, as I anticipated, have started off great and are starting to give their best In this diary you will find the plant that we will let grow straight, applying only a few techniques that do not involve cuts to preserve its speed characteristics. After taking the first fertilizers the plant is really doing very very well at a great pace and we expect great things the internodes are growing very well and we are practically almost in pre-flowering. The other one you will find in the next diary worked with Topping / Main Lining / Main Folding Comparison is the salt of experience. We have started the Plagron fertilization program, we are in 100% organic configuration, the soil is recycled Promix + 1/3 fresh soil + 10% Perlite + RQS Mycorrhiza Mix (4gr in the mix, 1 gr under the small fiber pot). We are administering // 1 ml/l of Power Roots - 1 ml/l of Pure Zym - 1 ml/l of Sugar Royal - 3 ml/l of Alga Grow I have doubts about the compatibility of Pure Zym with mycorrhizae. If in doubt, ask the experts, do not mix too much at random. https://plagron.com/en The doubts about the compatibility Pure Zym / Mycorrhizae have been dispelled, they can go well together according to Plagron experts. If someone tells you that enzymes eat mycorrhizae, which in principle may seem possible, explain to them that it is not true. https://www.royalqueenseeds.it/growing/452-easy-roots-mix-di-micorrhize.html Try this variety, it is a top strain of the last few years very high level of thc ---- https://www.zamnesia.io/it/11238-zamnesia-seeds-king-louis-automatic.html Brief description of Zamnesia // Say hello to true royalty with King Louis Auto, an autoflowering version of the original King Louis. Bred from OG Kush, LA Confidential and a premium ruderalis cutting, King Louis Auto delivers premium bud fit for a king just a few weeks after germination. As if that wasn't enough, her small size and vigor make her great for almost any grow environment. Incredibly efficient King Louis Auto has inherited the best traits of her photoperiod cousin, all wrapped up in a fast and easy-to-grow seed. With good soil and adequate watering, King Louis Auto seeds will quickly grow into robust and vigorous plants. Once fully mature, these plants will not exceed 80cm indoors, meaning they can easily fit into even the smallest of grow spaces. Likewise, outdoor plants will only reach 100cm, making this strain ideal for guerrilla grows or other environments where discretion is key. And if that wasn't enough, King Louis Auto only takes 9–10 weeks from germination to harvest, after which she'll reward you with yields of up to 300g/m² indoors and 150g/plant outdoors. With its pungent terpenes and high THC levels, King Louis Auto offers a fragrant and relaxing experience. When you open your jars of buds, you'll immediately notice intense scents of pine, damp earth and fragrant wood. After inhaling her equally complex smoke or vapor, you'll be hit with a deep, relaxing body stone that's perfect for those moments of well-earned rest and relaxation. With 24% THC, King Louis Auto hits hard and takes effect within minutes, working every muscle in your body to relax. Perfect for evenings, weekends or any time you want to unwind. Buy your seeds now and experience the king of sweet strains. You can find the whole world of growing on Zamnesia and more, just check out the site and you will find "all the best that nature has to offer" in various shapes and colours. The new strains are fantastic and the old ones are no exception... p.s. no hermaphrodites so far, can you growers say the same? _______________ www.zamnesia.com
