Another week in the books! The plan is: starting a dry-back on the 4th of next month and chopping the following week. I haven't top dressed since flower but they don't seem to mind. I'm not seeing any senescence so far or hunger, just chugging along happily! They've been in the colder temps as I've closed off the heater vents for the basement. With a high of 74 and a low of 60 they're getting a gentle simulated, winter-temperature swing. I've been stretching the time between waterings to get some extra frost but I hope the intentional dry-back does what it did for my accidental dry-backs haha Thanks for reading and I wish bountiful harvests for all :)

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.

Last week went well. She has grown tremendously in the last two weeks. Most growth has taken place in the last week. Over a foot of stretch. Because she was growing so much faster than the other autos, I put her in her own spot with her own Mars Hydro ts600 so I can adjust the light height just for her. I'm hoping she starts stacking on some bud. It seems like she isn't going to be a purple pheno, but oh well. As long as she turns out decent. She responded well to topping, lst and supercropping. She also seems to like the organic diet. I will update as she progresses. Until next time happy growing to everyone! 4/30- She is still stretching some but not as much. Starting to add bud mass. The bud is starting to get a purple coloration to it like I had hoped. Next time she will be grown with a soil mix that has 35% coco coir in no less than a 5 gallon aerated fabric pot to maximize the potential. I am also going to make sure she has the best lighting from the start. Because she wasn't as close as she should have been at first, that is why I think she is as lengthy. Just going to get a feel for her and improve for the next grow of this strain. Will update as she progresses.

Lo strain gorilla punch ha iniziato a produrre antociani le temperature in fase di riposo a luce spente scendo abbastanza noto che alcune vote è intorno ai 17/18 gradi , si cominciano a notare i colori purple nelle foglioline un effetto positivo che mi piace 😅 Al centro la purple lemonade non ha avuto questo particolare staremo a vedere nei giorni successivi o in finitura il cambio colore o eventualmente resterà verde chiaro ma questo non mi spaventa A destra l amnesia haze ho riscontrato un aventuale carico di sali minerali .

Hi liebe Community and Welcome Back! 💚 Woche 8 (Tag 59) im Vergleichsgrow! Bio Tabs NL. vs. Weedefix (Stuttgart/ Germany) Hier im Bio Tabs Grow haben wir nun nach 59 Tagen des Einpflanzens eine Höhe von 118cm erreicht. Blütetag: 14 (BW2) Nach der zweiten Blütewoche, lässt sich eine sehr ähnliche Performance der beiden Düngersysteme beobachten, außer dass bei der Bio Tabs NL Pflanze die Blätter nach wie vor eher etwas dunkler sind. Außerdem hat hier im Bio Tabs NL Grow der Stretch an einem Trieb ziemlich zugelegt. Ein Trieb ist 118cm hoch, während der Rest um 110cm liegt. Es bleibt spannend! Diese Woche, habe ich einmal mit Wasser und 5ml Bio PK 5-8 (Ferment mit Melasse und Bananen extrakt) gegossen. So nach Angaben. Ansonsten nur Wasser. Und es zeichnet sich weiterhin ein stärker werdendes Aroma ab. Die Bedingungen im Growschrank sind für den Anfang in Ordnung, auch wenn es aktuell schwül ist! ————— 🌞 Temp: 26 🌚 Temp: 18°C bis 19°C 💨 RH: 64% VPD: 0,78 kPa 💡ppfd: 630 mpm —————

Noticed some deficiency at the top of the plant early in the week, probably Iron due to that I did a full reservoir change and switched to bloom nutrient (Yara Kristalon Orange). My best guess is that due to the "high" ORP I got trouble with the metal micro nutrients. The lower fan leafs are getting worse but top is doing good so I don't worry about it, maybe the plant is just transporting some nutrients out of these leafs to others higher up. I raised the EC to ~2000, lowered ORP to ~100 and didn't see any tip burn yet, will observe the plant and might increase it even more, haven't grown this strain yet. Otherwise the plant is doing really good, reacts good to training and keeps growing, stretch definitely started mid week and flowering is starting so I will count it as flower mid week but will mark is as flower on GD starting next week. The plant started to smell a little, nothing strong yet tho. Roots are looking good, maybe a little stained due to Universol Yellow which has a strong yellow color. Did more LST and defoliation, with the stretch I might reach the frame for Scrog next week? Also added predator mite pouches as precaution, better safe than sorry.

The ladies have grown a little taller since last week, but I think the stretch is over. They are starting to develop the buds very nicely. I started using Plagron Green Sensation to further support bud development over the next few weeks. I'm very excited to see how these ladies turn out. So far I have two very very tall plants and one quite short plant in comparison to the other two. Let the best lady win. I have also switched to an automated watering system. I decided to use Blumat as it is simple and easy to use. Thanks again to Plagron and Zamnesia for sponsoring. Happy growing and see you next week.

The bean was soaked in a 25c solution of humic acid calmag and more roots for around 12 hrs then put into a paper towels for 18 hrs.. taproots came and they went into a jiffy.. As they get introduced to some photons I will give some fastplant spray.. Details... Growing Jack Herer feminized seeds (indoors and outdoors) As for cultivation, Jack Herer is a reasonably thick and productive plant that produces enormous buds. Make sure that the branches are supported to prevent snapping. Most Sativa plants should be controlled indoors by training or pruning a little. She is pretty rapacious when it comes to nutrients but, in return, offers impressive results under the right growing conditions. Outdoors, Jack Herer prefers warm, dry climates such as the Mediterranean coast, where she will give outstanding results with large, productive trees. However, you would be well-advised to use a greenhouse if growing in a cooler, wetter region. In addition, she does not develop a strong odor until after harvest and good ripening, which makes Jack Herer an ally of choice in terms of discretion. Jack Herer's genetics achieve excellent yields indoors or outdoors in the right conditions. Flowering time Flowering time takes between 60 and 70 days when grown indoors. Plant height Jack Herer seeds grow into relatively compact strains. Its height indoors is 90 to 130 cm, and typical sizes outdoors range from 130 to 180 cm. Jack Herer feminized yield Indoors, the maximum yield is 500 to 600 grams per m². Yields outdoors are generally higher, with 600 to 700 grams per plant. Effects of Jack Herer First, the smoke is heavy and lingers in the mouth; you won't want to light yourself up a cigarette right after smoking Jack Herer. This bud is perfect for chilling with friends having a little fun. For film lovers, it's the ideal choice! The high that lasts a little is sure to keep your interest in the plot as long as the stone nails you, even seeing the time pass. The effect is a pleasant balance between a full-bodied stone and a cerebral high, although the stone is powerful and dominant. Jack Herer will be suitable for daytime smoke to improve your mood and feel relaxed. However, the buzz won't bring on couch-lock if you need to get things done. Despite low levels of CBD (0.8%), Jack Herer is highly rated for stress, anxiety, depression, pain, fatigue, migraine headaches, and appetite. Side effects Users frequently report that Jack Herer can make them feel dehydrated, particularly in the mouth and eyes. So make sure you have plenty of fluids to hand to combat this side effect. Smell and taste The Haze taste is excellent, a flavor that takes different paths depending on the seeds. But very often, you will find the typical Indica aromas which mingle with the sweet notes of Sativa, quite fruity, lemony with earthy and skunky undertones. In addition, you may experience sweet nuances of fruit reminiscent of sandalwood or even pine forest smells. Jack Herer has become famous for its medicinal benefits over the years. The strain is straightforward and will produce a good yield if grown in the right conditions. Jack Herer produces copious quantities of THC, so much that you can practically see the branches glistening with the sticky resin. Origin Jack Herer was created in the Netherlands in the mid-1990s as a tribute to the infamous activist and author. Consisting of Haze x Shiva Skunk x Northern Lights #5 genetics, she quickly rose on the bestsellers list in Dutch coffeeshops for being a reputable and reliable medical-grade variety. Thanks for looking. I'm excited to see how these strains grow.. 💚🌿

Feb 8th Starting to learn how to grow with the new system I have had a couple of learnings so far 1 The PH level is getting to high by the time it’s in the autopot from the res being keep below 6.0 I try to keep the PH in the res around 5.7 By the time it’s in the plant trays it is testing to be around 6.5 and above. So I’m trying to work that out Also started LST this week

Beginning of week... Well, I had to work late last night.. So, she wasn't watered for 24 hours.. I have been having to water/feed 2 to 3 times a day due to the media drying out.. The roots are insane in the cup.. Alot aLoT ALOT of fuckin roots.. This is my first cup grow that had this much roots.. So yeah, I could see her drinking like a mf.. Which she does.. She is happy and healthy... Besides the underwatering today.. I couldn't be more happy with the way this girl is growing. After 7 days of 12/12 and the tops are starting to form pistils.. Next week should be epic pistil growth by the way she's been growing so far.. Will update when she perks up from the underwatering.. Later that day.. Shit.. She perked up.. But not enough to show a full recovery pic.. I watered when I took the underwatered pic and before lights went out.. That was only about... 4 hours.. Usually the girlies perk up after about an hour or maybe 2.. I'm sure she will be fine in the AM.. Oh yeah I forgot to add in the veg cycle I was adding 1mL per L of water of Silica.. So that should have helped her build up a good immunity to my abuse.. This is the only hiccup so far in the grow.. No more stress! Will update on the issue in the AM with pics whether she fully recovered or not 24 hours after decovering she was underwatered... She perked back up.. I forgot to mention that I have been bending the tops to help the lower branches stretch up some.. I remember reading somewhere that is another form of LST, I believe. I'm pretty much just bending the top 2 - 3 nodes to point straight down.. Which is just enough to not snap the top completely off.. When I release the top she stays pointed pretty much at 90° away from the center of the plant.. A few more side branches have almost caught up to their main tops. I read that it kinda like tricks the plant into thinking she's topped 'in a way'.. I feel like it just stresses the branch upward from where the most bending is at.. And the side branches are not being stressed at all so they keep growing/stretching at normal speed, if not a little faster, while the top above the bend has been stressed and slows down, if not stops completely. Just my 2 cents on the dealio.. Just bend the main tops downward 180° from the center of the plant, so that when you release the tops, they stay bent over at 90° (or tied like LST) and let the bottom branches get all the light.. After a couple hours, the tops will have probably already pointed back upward..😁 The capacitor on my home AC went out.. Temps in the tent got up to 90° F.. Leaves were pointing upward.. Praying.. But also canoeing.. Luckily I checked google and youtube on how to fix it.. I fixed it in under 15 mins.. Got the temps back down to normal and just made sure I kept her good and watered thru the heat stress. She is good now tho. The pics for today were 6 hours after seeing the heat stress. When I say LST this week.. Its just bending the tops down as I stated earlier in the grow.. I even removed the ties that I did have.. I shouldn't have done that because the tops kinda bunched together.. Oh well.. Live and learn.. Shouldn't create any issues.. Its easier to water now.. i was using a 1 fl oz turkey baster that worked very well.. But also time consuming.. Now I can just pour straight out of the powerade bottle I use to mix and store nutes and water.. I never keep anything mixed for more than 2 or 3 days at the most.. I have just ordered a bunch of hydroponic stuff.. And organic stuff... I can't run both at the same time.. I don't know which to try first.. Im thinking try hydro first.. Then organics because I think organics MAY be where I end up but still wanna try hydro to see how it ends up.. Hmmm... Went ahead and lollipopped her and bent the main tops down.. One branch kinda snapped so I think it was pretty much supercropped lol whoops.. Didnt break the skin tho.. I dont really care for defoliating alot.. But I always end up doing it anyway.. I need to stop lol

5/14 Watered today. I almost held off as it seemed there was a LITTLE moisture in the soil of the gmos. The bigger one was drier. I weighed dry soil and compared that's when I decided to water. Seeing how today is I think the fourth day since I watered I used less water. Since I' not feeding nutes yet (plenty in the soil) I'm not watering to runoff. 2 Gatorade bottles total this time. I want those roots filling the pot. I have burns on the event horizons. I think it was from the light leak. The toasted toffy seems exploding. I hope they don't get to rootbound in the 1 gallon. I think it was a good decision for the 1 gallon rather than the 3s. 5/15 Yeah they definitely liked that water. Especially the event horizons. Old burns don't heal but the are coming out of reveg and growing with a fury! The gmos are as healthy as I coupd ask. I almost topped the last gmo one (or fimmed) but it was trained before I got it and bottom branches are level with the top. The gmo I fimmed has at least four new tops growing fast. I think I'll pick up my soil tomorrow. Grow bags are ready but I need to clean up the cage and wait until the time I'd right. If I had the time I would've brought the girls outside today 5/16 Plants look amazing. It got to 80 yea6erday but the girls were inbthat nice cool room. It's getting close to the time I'm going outside and I'm getting excited! 5/17 Same. Plants still going like crazy souls still moist. 5/18 wow these l.e.d lights don't dry out the soil like an hps. Watered on the 14th and plants still look like they're happy and there is still moisture in the soil. I'll monitor and either water later today or more likely in the morning. There wasn't much if any moisture in the soil and that was only a couple plants. I WATERED TODAY AND USED APPROXIMATELY 2 AND a 1/2 GATORADE BOTTLES TOTAL. I went with my intuition and it told me they were thirsty. They were certainly light. At least I don't have to worry about overwatering. I'll grab my soil tomm and clean my grow bags. These clones are exploding in growth and leaf production. I can't wait to see how they do outside. 5/19 Seedlings are jumping right along and need transplant. I'm almost positive they are autos so I shouod plan to transplant just once. I'm planning to buy my soil tomorrow and get other odds and ends taken care of. The girls are doing great! They def enjoyed the water. Im glad I went with my intuition. Some pics wouldn't upload. Oh well. 5/20 Today is supposwd to be in the 80s. Plants AND seedlings are doing great. I think I'll grab my soil today. I'll update later. UPDATE: I BOUGHT 3 3CF 707 3 3CU FFOF AND 3 2CF HAPPY FR0G AND I HAVE A BAG OF 707 AT HOME. CAGE IS ALMOST READY. BAGS NEED TO BE SOAKED AND CLEANED AND PLANTS NEED TO START GETTING HARDENED OFF. ITS HARD TO DO ALL THIS IN THE MIDDLE OF MOVING WITH A SICK WIFE BUT WE DO WHAT WE HAVE TO.

Not a bad week, nothing much happening, topped the plants and made some more dry PH down as I don't like using the liquid Phosphoric acid down as I don't use it fast enough and its going bad. Starting to discolor and tun yellow from clear. The acorbic acid is also ageing and going yellow, will need to replace it soon. ran the ph down mix through and sieve to grind it all down to around the same particle size for the chucks. Also added in a desiccate packet into the container to help with moisture issues. Over all the plants are good. Some issues with the transplant but not going to react to it. just going to let it sort its self out. defiantly some N tox, seems to always happen with Gaia Green 4-4-4 the N content is just too available while the rest is slower release. Would like it if their N in the formula was a bit more slow release over all. most of it is fast. Some of them showing some other issues as well but just have to wait it out. they are also going back into veg from my mess up on the lights. Thought they where on 16/8 but was really 12/12 from a week or so ago. the CBG seeds from GTR are doing the best. handling the extra N with good strides and nice growth on them. Topping plants was fine, took some pics of their tops. tried to get em all around the same height. looks good to me. Herbs doing well too. the basil is getting nice and deep rich green. can smell it heavy if the plant is brushed at all. Will need to keep pinching off their tops to make a tasty little plant. The catnip is going to explode in size I have a feeling. Its only one seed in that whole pot. Taste so good crushed into some cola. Nice minty flavor but not too offensive/sharp like other common mints such as pepermint or spearmint, its softer and almost creamy. highly recommend. fresh not dired.

I think I’ll let her flower for another week and then I’ll flush her out so I can harvest her. I’m ready to start another seed soon.
