Thank you. Gave her a cocktail to help with stress. Added 1st net for lateral support, not so much now, but for later. Blue light is absorbed by photoreceptor proteins called phototropins, which trigger a hormonal response that causes cells on the shaded side to elongate, making the plant bend toward the light. Try and fill this side a little. She is quite big already, just needs to find her stride again after the undue torture. 5 apex stems with 20-30 mini cola, let them develop a little, with the apical dominance shattered, all those 20-30 will all compete with each other as soon as that stretch is initiated. Key to a good stretch is making sure the plant is cycling efficiently, with large ATP conversions occurring lights out. For now, I'm keeping light intensity high. A plant will slow its vertical growth in very high light intensities, leading to a more compact form with thicker stems and leaves. This response is a protective mechanism against light stress, which can damage the photosynthetic apparatus and lead to symptoms like leaf scorching, yellowing, and brittleness. Instead of growing taller, the plant invests its energy into creating a more robust, stress-tolerant structure. Providing plants with necessary antioxidants helps protect the photosynthetic apparatus by scavenging reactive oxygen species (ROS) that cause damage from excess light. UV light exposure can impact the xanthophyll cycle by either enhancing its photoprotective role or causing damage, depending on the intensity and type of UV radiation. UV exposure can trigger the synthesis of more xanthophyll cycle pigments to increase the plant's capacity to dissipate excess energy, but it can also cause direct damage, particularly to Photosystem II, and may lead to a decrease in the de-epoxidation state (DEPS ratio) which indicates a reduced capacity to dissipate excess energy. Plants can respond to UV stress by increasing the synthesis of xanthophyll cycle pigments, such as violaxanthin and zeaxanthin, to improve their photoprotective capacity. UV-induced changes in xanthophyll cycle pigments can be linked to a plant's overall tolerance to high radiation stress. The xanthophyll cycle helps protect against photoinhibition, which is especially important when the plant is exposed to high levels of both UV and visible light. High doses of UV radiation can directly damage photosynthetic components, including the proteins, lipids, and pigments in the thylakoid membranes. Exposure to UV radiation can have a mixed effect on the de-epoxidation state (DEPS ratio) of the xanthophyll cycle pigments. In some cases, UV can inhibit the conversion of violaxanthin to zeaxanthin, resulting in a lower DEPS ratio and a reduced capacity for energy dissipation. However, the total pool of xanthophyll cycle pigments may increase, and this enhanced pool size could provide a greater potential for photoprotection despite a lower DEPS ratio. The xanthophyll cycle works alongside other mechanisms, such as the accumulation of flavonoids (UV screens), to protect the plant from UV-induced damage. Blue light repairs 100% UV-induced damage in plants through a process called photoreactivation, which uses a light-dependent enzyme called photolyase. This enzyme uses energy from blue and UV-A light to directly reverse the damaging pyrimidine dimers in the DNA caused by UV-B radiation, a key mechanism for maintaining the plant's genetic integrity. After carbon, light, water, temperature, and nutrients, the limiting factor of a plant's growth is often its own internal factors or the amount of a key ingredient. Chlorophyll concentration is one such factor, as the amount of this pigment limits how much light can be captured for photosynthesis. Other factors include chloroplast number, respiration rate, and the concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, as plants are often in a CO2-deficient condition. 60x60x18=64800seconds x 700 = 45,360,000moles. 45DLI Exposure to 165 µW/cm² of ultraviolet-B (UV-B) light for 3600 seconds = 1 hour, a extremely high, acute dose triggering stress responses and protective mechanisms. . The plant's photoreceptor protein, UVR8, senses the UV-B radiation. This triggers a signaling cascade that activates specific genes to protect the plant from damage. In response to the UV-B signal, the plant ramps up the biosynthesis of protective compounds like flavonoids, phenolic acids, and anthocyanins. These compounds absorb UV radiation and accumulate in the epidermal layers of leaves to shield inner photosynthetic tissues. The plant may increase leaf thickness or deposit more cuticular wax, creating a physical barrier to the radiation. The plant will produce more enzymatic and non-enzymatic antioxidants to neutralize the reactive oxygen species (ROS) produced by the UV-B radiation. The plant activates enzymes, including photolyases, to repair DNA damage caused by the UV-B. These repair mechanisms are critical for preventing permanent genetic mutations. While protective measures are activated, a high dose delivered over a short period can cause stress that overwhelms the plant's defenses. Photosynthesis is highly sensitive to UV-B. A high dose can inactivate Photosystem II (PSII), damage thylakoid membranes within the chloroplasts, and reduce chlorophyll content, which lowers the plant's overall photosynthetic capacity. Despite repair mechanisms, high UV-B doses can inflict persistent damage on the plant's DNA. One study found that acute, high-dose UV-B had a greater effect on genome stability than chronic, low-dose exposure. The overproduction of reactive oxygen species can cause oxidative stress, leading to the oxidation of lipids and proteins and disrupting cellular function.

Yooo growers 🌱, We’re 8 weeks in and let me tell you — this grow is going absolutely wild. Everything’s blowing up like weeds (the good kind, of course 😎). From the jump, the girls were full of energy, and now the tent’s starting to look like a mini jungle. I’ve been running a 300W HID in a 60x60 tent, keeping temps and humidity dialed in just right. Feeding with Green House nutrients and sticking to a solid 16-hour light schedule through veg — and man, the plants are loving it. Week by week, they just kept stacking height and packing on that lush green. Now here in week 8, things are looking prime. The structure’s solid, leaves are healthy, and I can already feel the pre-flower tension in the air. A few more days and the real show begins — flower time, baby! Couldn’t be happier with how it’s all tracking so far. Stay tuned, 'cause if veg looked like this, the bloom is gonna be straight fire 🔥 Catch ya in the next update. ✌️

This week has been a total success 💚🌿 all thanks to my mate BB_UK!! all the ladies have been perfectly transplanted into their new 4 phat sacs with FoxFarms Happy Frog organic soil. Put up the scrog netting today and also went out and bought a 1 gallon sprayer to feed my ladies, so much easier to get to the hard to get areas with ease. Now it's the growing game. Did my first bend on my ladies today. The bend is in the photo. Let's see her in the morning how she went. Now there is more tops that are seeing light to get all bushy 🌿💚 Did my first bend on my ladies. Photos

Guess who’s back lol…branches and all that. It’s time for her to shine, let’s see how she performs.

Info: Unfortunately, I had to find out that my account is used for fake pages in social media. I am only active here on growdiaries. I am not on facebook instagram twitter etc All accounts except this one are fake. Harvest day 69 since the time change to 12/12 hrs. Hey guys :-) Finally the time has come . The lady was harvested. After the trichomes have been checked (70% milky 30% amber) as always, it was left in complete darkness for 48 hours before it was neatly trimmed by hand. After trimming, she was put back in the drying tent on nets. There they are allowed to dry for the next 8-12 days at 62% humidity before they are put into the jar to ferment with 62% boveda packs. After about 4-6 weeks in the jar I will swap the 62% boveda pack for a 58% boveda pack where it can be ready for another 4-6 weeks to enjoy :-). As always, the remains of the leaves are used to make Ice o Lator and oil. Of course, as always, there is a final update during the fermentation process. Until then, I wish you all a lot of fun with this update. Stay healthy 🙏🏻 and let it grow 👍.

Starting day 31 today, and the girls are looking good. I removed a few leaves, mostly the huge ones, to improve airflow. They’re still getting the same amount of water, with almost no runoff. I’m not sure whether I should increase the amount or keep it as it is, since they seem pretty happy to me.

GORILLA COOKIES 🍪 FF / FASTBUDS WEEK #7 Overall Week #6 Veg This week I trimmed some of the fan leaves 🍃 she's growing at a fast rate almost double in size this week looking good no issues!! Stay Growing!! Thanks for stopping by and taking a look!! Thank you FASTBUDS!! FASTBUDS GORILLA COOKIES 🍪 FF

Hello Growmies, I'm thrilled to update you on the plant's progress! In the last week, she has beautifully filled out the scrog. Just yesterday, I flipped her into the flowering stage. This means I'll slowly increase her feeding, although I don't plan to go too heavy on the nutrients since she seems to prefer a lighter touch. She's quite particular about her nutrients, requiring me to change the reservoir every five days. If I delay, she shows signs of distress on her leaves, but these issues resolve immediately after I refresh the reservoir. While she's stretching in the preflower stage, I'll continue to guide her growth into the empty areas of the scrog screen. Also, here's a special offer: use the code ZAMMIGD2023 at Zamnesia's online store to get a 20% discount. Thanks for dropping by, and I'll share more updates next week!

Starting to think if I didn't stunt pheno 3 initially, how much more beautiful this plant would be. It was the runt due to nute burn as a seedling. It has now become my favorite plant of the 3. It has beautiful structure, and the fan leaves are almost triple the size of the other 2. Pheno 1 is showing signs of preflower.. stretchy girl showing her indica traits. Pheno 2 has seemed to back off on the vertical growth, reminds me of pheno 3 but with not quite as good genetics. Beautiful plant though 👌 Pheno 3 would be the plant you clone of the 3 if this were a photo run. I'm curious to see how she turns out.

Hello everyone. This is week 9 since starting flowering. Today is day 4 of total darkness, and day 18 since the flush. She has purpled out beautifully, and the branches are hanging mostly down. Thankfully, none of the flowers reached the coco soil. I will be harvesting her in the coming hours. Thank you for following me with this journal, and have a nice day. Best regards, Growfather.

First feed of bloom nutes today at 577 PPM. Had to add a small mid week water to the schedule, only water PH’d at 6.5. Had a pretty good stretch this week, seeing lots of growth with a good amount of bud sites, smelling nice, warm cheese and a fruity berry sharpness. LST going well, trying to spread out the lower branches

FBT2309 had a little ph issue this week. She got a few spots on the look leaves from it. I have corrected the issue. Organo mineral nutrition is a lot more difficult to do in a hydro application. I am doing my best to try, and control it. I believe my nutrition is a bit too strong. Besides that she is growing great under the Medic Grow Mini Sun-2. She should start stretching soon. Which is good she is quickly loosing space from the flowering plants around her. She has been trained and is ready to start another week. Thank you Medic Grow, Gen1:11, and Fast Buds. 🤜🏻🤛🏻🌱🌱🌱 Thank you grow diaries community for the 👇likes👇, follows, comments, and subscriptions on my YouTube channel👇. ❄️🌱🍻 Happy Growing 🌱🌱🌱 https://youtube.com/channel/UCAhN7yRzWLpcaRHhMIQ7X4g If anyone needs to purchase fastbuds here is a link for my affiliate program https://myfastbuds.com/?a_aid=60910eaff2419

High! The final courtain fell today.............I am amazed and will report again after curing......smell, looks is just amazing. After ripping of the leaves of these resinous buds I had 1,5g of hash in my hand.....

This was the most beautiful grow I have done to date. There were a few mistakes I made along the way, like not defoliating enough and some over topping but I still highly impressed with the results. Looking forward to growing this again.

Week 10 - Second Week of Flowering 🌸 As week two of flowering begins, the garden’s growth is unstoppable! These ladies are thriving, stretching up while staying beautifully vibrant and green. Every inch of this tent is optimized—each plant is soaking up light, nutrients, and water precisely as they need, filling the room with energy. Room Conditions 🌡️ • Temperature: 27.3°C • Humidity: 62.6% • CO₂ Levels: 800 ppm • VPD: 1.36 kPa (excellent range for robust flowering) • Lighting Intensity: 818 PPFD Solution & Medium 💧 • Solution Temp: 21.5°C | TDS: 470 ppm | pH: 6.02 • Medium: Moisture 100% (recently dried to 67%), TDS 510 ppm, Temp 22.5°C The “dry-out” to 67% was a strategic move, helping boost nutrient uptake and root strength. Meanwhile, our slight increase in reds seems to be having the desired effect, nudging these ladies further along in the flowering process. Eye Safety & LED Lighting 🌞🕶️ With powerful LED systems like the ThinkGrow and ICL-300, eye protection is critical. LED grow lights emit high-intensity light across the full spectrum, including intense UV and infrared components that are not easily detected by the human eye. Long-term exposure without adequate protection can lead to eye strain, and in extreme cases, damage to vision. • Blue Light Hazard: LEDs often have elevated levels of blue light, which can harm the retina over time if proper precautions aren’t taken. • UV Protection: Even low doses of UV can accumulate and harm eyes, so grow glasses with UV protection are essential for any indoor gardener. Investing in quality grow room glasses can help protect from glare, UV, and infrared rays, making plant care safer and more comfortable. Lighting Enhancements: ICL-300 In-Depth 🔆 The ICL-300 is our newest addition, specifically designed for inner canopy illumination. This LED offers a targeted light boost under the canopy, enhancing flower growth in lower and shaded areas—ideal for maximizing yield and light efficiency. • Dual Spectrum Technology: The ICL-300 provides a custom spectrum designed to penetrate deeper into the plant canopy, promoting robust bud formation throughout. • Enhanced Light Distribution: With strategically positioned diodes, the ICL-300 reduces shadowing and balances light distribution to all parts of the plant. • Energy Efficiency & Heat Management: This light is designed to be energy-efficient, running cooler and reducing the risk of heat stress within the grow space. The inner canopy light gives the plants exactly what they need, particularly during the flower stage when bud sites deep in the canopy can benefit from more direct exposure. However, after noticing slight leaf burn on some plants, I’ll hold off a bit longer before fully integrating this light to ensure optimal adjustment. Looking Forward 🌟 As we continue dialing in conditions, it’s all about balance, precision, and taking proactive steps to optimize every aspect of the grow environment. We’ll keep a close watch on the canopy height, and next week, I’ll aim to fine-tune the light integration even further with the ICL-300. P.S. - ICL-300 and CO₂ Sensor 🌱 The TrolMaster CO₂ Sensor (MBS-S8) has been crucial for real-time CO₂ adjustments, ensuring the plants get exactly what they need without constant monitoring. Combined with the ICL-300’s spectrum flexibility, these tools make an unbeatable setup, allowing for nuanced control over plant growth and development. As always, a huge thanks to the Grow Fam for the tips, support, and enthusiasm! I’m excited to see what these next weeks will bring as these plants reach their full flowering potential.

Flowering nice little slow start bit ee are up and running should have taking more leaves.off on week 3 but hey hoo still

9/22 topped them at 4th node. some of them are looking better for mainlining that others. some of them i may not mainline and others i left an extra node in case i want to keep clones around. #1 is looking happy with the topping and looks really good. #2 is the only one thats been praying and is the tallest and strongest looking all around. #5 short and such tight internodal spacing that it makes it hard to see whats all there. just looks like a bunch of small leaves until they grow out. i may not mainline this one either be cause of it being so tightly packed it may make it 9/27/24 day 20 theyre growing quite well. #1 i ended up taking the bottom nodes. i was originally goi g to use them as clones later on but decided to just let her go with her 4 nodes. #5 is so tightly packed, she has like 8 mains all in such a small space, its hard to even make sense of it all.

It's week 8 of flower. The buds are getting fatter and the aroma is more intense now. I can't wait to see the finished flowers. The buds still have a lot of white pistols, so I hope that the colas will get even fatter. I hope to have a good harvest in a couple of weeks.

Die kleine wächst schön flott und macht nach meinem derzeitigen Kenntnisstand einen sehr gesunden Eindruck. Mal sehen wie die Grüntöne aussehen, sobald Sie das nächste Blätterpaar entwickelt. Geplant ist später, ca. ab der 3 Blütewoche, eine Zugabe von UVB Strahlen. Bei der Hulk Berry habe ich damit ein unglaubliches Aroma erzielt. Zudem bin ich der Überzeugung, dass der "hohe" THC Gehalt im Allgemeinen, nicht zwangsläufig eine Gute Wirkung bedeutet. Viel wichtiger ist, wie die Trichome aufgeteilt sind. Eine Verfärbung ist meines Erachtens nach immer ein recht sicheres Anzeichen dafür, dass es sich um eine schöne Wirkung handeln wird. Hulk Berry, THC Bomb, sind beide starke Sorten. Jedoch fand ich AK 47 bis jetzt am aller besten. Direkt danach kam die Blueberry mit "nur" 16%. Aber die Wirkung war Rund und wunderbar. Eventuell teste ich im nächste Grow mal Califorina Orange, mal sehen. 16.11.2020 Tag 9 Ich kann nicht klagen, wie schon bei der Begutachtung der keimenden Wurzel vermutet, handelt es sich bei dem erwischen Samen um einen sehr starken. Die kleine Banane wächst sehr Gut, macht einen sehr gesunden Eindruck und hat ein passendes Farbbild. 16.11.2020 Tag 9 16:16 Uhr Aller Erstes LST erledigt. Der Stamm sollte Morgen früh schon merklich kräftiger und vor allem Widerstandsfähiger sein.
