Woche 19 – Blütewoche 4 Diese Woche war weniger spektakulär als die letzten – zumindest wenn man meinen Zeitraffer fragt. 😅 Der Stretch scheint nun endgültig abgeschlossen zu sein. Im Vergleich zu den vergangenen Wochen bewegt sich das Blätterdach kaum noch nach oben. Stattdessen beginnt die Laughing Buddha sichtbar damit, ihre Energie in die Blüten zu stecken. Die einzelnen Budsites werden kompakter, die Blütenstände verbinden sich zunehmend entlang der Triebe und die Harzproduktion nimmt ordentlich Fahrt auf. Gerade auf den Sugar Leaves ist mittlerweile schon eine schöne Schicht Trichome zu sehen. Für Blütewoche 4 kann ich mich über die Entwicklung der Buds definitiv nicht beschweren. Ganz zufrieden war ich diese Woche trotzdem nicht. Das Sorgenkind: die Blattfarbe Bereits in der letzten Zeit wurde das Laub zunehmend heller. Einige ältere Fächer zeigen inzwischen deutliche Chlorosen und teilweise kleine braune bzw. nekrotische Stellen. Anfangs hatte ich vor allem die Nährstoffversorgung im Verdacht. Rückblickend habe ich aber wahrscheinlich selbst einen Teil zu dem Problem beigetragen. Also wurde diese Woche nicht einfach blind weitergedüngt, sondern erstmal genauer hingeschaut. Ich habe meinen pH-Pen neu kalibriert und anschließend Wasser und Erde überprüft. Mein Leitungswasser liegt ungefähr bei pH 7,7 und ist ziemlich hart. Zusätzlich habe ich eine Bodenprobe angesetzt, um besser einschätzen zu können, was tatsächlich im Substrat passiert. Auch beim Enhancer musste ich feststellen, dass ich ihn bisher nicht ganz so eingesetzt hatte, wie ursprünglich vorgesehen. Dazu kamen zeitweise ziemlich hohe Lichtintensitäten und durch die heißen Tage teilweise entsprechend hohe VPD-Werte. Kurz gesagt: Wahrscheinlich war es nicht der eine große Fehler, sondern mehrere kleine Faktoren gleichzeitig. Und ja – auch solche Sachen gehören für mich in ein Grow-Tagebuch. Fehler passieren. Entscheidend ist, sie zu erkennen und daraus zu lernen. Mäh sin hier ja nit bi Wünsch dir Watt. 🤣 💡 Licht & Klima Bei der Beleuchtung habe ich diese Woche ebenfalls nachjustiert. Die Gorilla hängt jetzt ungefähr 50 cm über dem Canopy und läuft bei 91 %. Am Sensor kommen damit rund 890 PPFD an. Damit bin ich wieder ziemlich genau in dem Bereich, den ich für die weitere Blüte haben möchte, ohne der Buddha unnötig noch mehr Stress aufzudrücken. Die heißen Augusttage haben die Klimaanlage ordentlich beschäftigt. Zeitweise ging die Temperatur deutlich nach oben und damit auch der VPD. An den gemäßigteren Tagen ließ sich das Klima dagegen wesentlich besser kontrollieren. Fütterung & Bewässerung Zum Übergang in BW4 bekam die Buddha wie geplant ihren Green House Feeding BioBloom Topdress. Anschließend wurde mit Enhancer gegossen. Danach hieß es erstmal: beobachten. Ich möchte jetzt nicht den Fehler machen, wegen der hellen Blätter ständig weitere Änderungen vorzunehmen. Bereits geschädigte Blätter werden ohnehin nicht plötzlich wieder dunkelgrün. Viel interessanter ist, ob sich das Schadbild weiter ausbreitet oder nach den vorgenommenen Änderungen stabilisiert. Auch die beiden Bodensensoren waren diese Woche wieder ziemlich hilfreich. Man sieht mittlerweile sehr schön, wie schnell die Pflanze ihren 45 Liter Topf leerzieht. Am heutigen Gießtag konnte man anschließend sogar unmittelbar verfolgen, wie die Bodenfeuchtigkeit nach oben sprang und sich das Wasser anschließend im Substrat verteilte. 🌸 Blütenentwicklung Und während ich mir über irgendwelche gelben Blätter den Kopf zerbreche, scheint die Buddha selbst davon relativ wenig beeindruckt zu sein. 😅 Die Blütenentwicklung läuft weiter. Viele Tops tragen mittlerweile klar ausgebildete Colas, die Buds werden zunehmend dichter und vor allem die Harzproduktion gefällt mir ausgesprochen gut. Gleichzeitig stehen noch Unmengen frischer weißer Pistillen heraus. Da ist also noch sehr, sehr viel Luft nach oben. Der Unterschied zwischen Pflanzen- und Blütenbild ist momentan fast schon absurd: Einige Fächer sehen aus, als wollten sie mir unbedingt mitteilen, dass etwas nicht stimmt – und direkt daneben sitzt ein komplett bereifter Bud und sagt: „Keine Ahnung, was dein Problem ist.“ 🤣 🎥 Zeitraffer der Woche Nach dem Stretch der letzten Wochen hatte ich diesmal mit einem spektakulären Zeitraffer gerechnet. Tja. Absolut unspektakulär. 🤣 Aber beim direkten Vergleich zwischen Anfang und Ende erkennt man trotzdem die entscheidende Veränderung: Die Höhe bleibt nahezu konstant, während die Blüten langsam an Volumen gewinnen. Und eigentlich ist genau das die beste Nachricht dieser Woche. Der Bau des Gerüsts ist beendet. Jetzt darf sie fett werden. 😏🌳 📋 Fazit Blütewoche 4 Keine perfekte Woche – aber wahrscheinlich eine ziemlich wichtige. Ich habe beim Licht nachjustiert, meine Wasser-/Bodensituation genauer untersucht, die Düngung aufgefrischt und dabei auch ein paar eigene Fehler bzw. mögliche Fehlentscheidungen gefunden. Jetzt werde ich nicht hektisch weiter korrigieren, sondern der Pflanze erstmal Zeit geben zu reagieren. Denn trotz der auffälligen Blattfarbe macht die Laughing Buddha genau das, was sie momentan machen soll: Sie baut Blüten. Und davon verdammt viele. 😍 Auf in Blütewoche 5.

Hi Growmies, Luckily she has made full recovery, in the tank below and up top :). OST of the root growth I. Observing, I would attribute to the combination of orca, rhizotonic and cannazym. Mainly the orca though ;). I will minimum give her 1–2 more weeks max until I flip her, as it feels like she should have a fairly short flowering phase. Overall she is looking very lush and healthy again, but still has some catching up to do. Here is the code that’ll give you 20% in Zamnesia‘s online store, just input ZAMMIGD2023 at checkout. Thanks for stepping by and until next week!

7/26 Rained last night and looks like it will rain today as well. The periods we've been having with rain then sun then rain has really exploded growth. I have tops over my fence already. You can see all the dead leaves I pulled. Plants look healthy but I always worry when I lose leaves like this. Luckily I can look back on my old diary and the paper one before for some peace of mind. I've decided to label this week as flower even though we still have about 14 and a half hours of daylight but we're losing light every week. My plants get shade in the evening. My tarps provide a little shade as well. Everything is stretching incredibly that's why I labeled flower. You can see preflowers starting to form. I hope that's why I lost so many leaves (starting preflower). I mean the plants are healthy. I'll check pH with a soil meter tonight and make sure things are good. I would think with the rain it would lower my pH if anything. Definitely using dry amendments next year and dropping the liquid nutes. Soon I'll start adding flower nutes at low doses and see how the girls respond. Still haven't been able to spray BT for the pillars and my IPM. Hopefully tonight it won't rain and I can spray. 7/27 watered today. Still seeing some leaves yellowing and dropping. I left my pH meter so I'll have to check to see if that's the problem. I've been researching and I may need to adjust my nutrient dosage and add more P. I still haven't sprayed. I found a shit ton of earwigs under the wood outside I use to hold down my tarp. I thought they were predators but maybe not. I'll have to research them. I may have to use captain Jack's instead of BT and hope it combats the earwigs. 7/28 Watered as the soil was dry. Killed some earwigs and tied up a branch that is to close to the fence. I researched earwigs and they aren't beneficial but I've noticed that I no longer have ANY aphids that I could see. I'll check lower leaves with my scope as I haven't checked in a while. My pH meter won't work in ANY of my grow bags. It seems like the bags are just a bunch of roots. When I stuck the meter in a pile of last year's soil (next to the grow) it worked fine and read at 6.6. I don't get why it won't work with the grow bags. I'll have to research and see if I can use test strips or something. Still noticing some random damage here and there but it's time to spray and I just haven't done it. Plants are in that transition stage. All the big clones are at about the same stage. I really hope losing the leaves is normal. Looking at my father's tomato plants I noticed the same thing. I looked at other foliage and trees and I'm seeing similar signs of senscence. 7/29 Fed two gallons to the garden this morning. I was able to get one reading off my pH meter and it read 7.3. Still losing leaves but plants are stretching like crazy. Even the little 5 gallon ones I have been neglecting are forming there "asparagus tops" and starting to transition energy. I think I'll start adding bloom nutes next feed or so. I need to treat the PM. I've been slacking on my IPM. Also noticed some weird looking damage on a bud site. I hope it's not those earwigs. I usually have aphids but this year it seems the lady bugs and my treatments kept them at bay. I'm wondering if the ear wigs that I saw were eating other bugs and ran out and started munching on leaves. Hope not. I plan to make a ear wig trap and I need to research more. Planning on spraying LCPT tonight and cleaning up the cage but we'll see how that goes. Very little wind so I took the tarps down for now. I'll update as I get things done. UPDATE: I inspected tops and bud sites for damage. Random damage mostly on seedlings outside the cage. It's hot today and the mis-labeled indica (it's ONE of the strains listed other than DJSBB AND DREAMCATCHER) in the 50 gallon pot seemed a bit droopy. Granted all those strains are highly indica dominant and it could just be the pheno. I gave them a little water just to make sure. It should hold them over till the rain. I took a small plastic container and made an earwig trap with soy sauce and olive oil. Let's see what I catch. I plan to spray LCPT tonight. 7/30 Rained all night so I couldn't spray like I wanted too. Rain and 49 degrees at 8. My earwig trap caught zero earwigs but I killed a few around it. Noticed damage on a bud site that I'm pretty sure was from ear wigs. My bags are on the ground and I allowed the roots to grow through into the ground so I am hesitant to use something like borax to kill them. I'll have to give this a little more thought. Tarps are still down I'll monitor and update. I was able to get two pH readings but they were the five gallon plants 7.2 and 7.3. I'd really like to lower the pH. My water going in is always good and I even measured the pH of the rain so I hope I'm good. May need to check run off for accuracy. 7/31 Didn't water as it poured last night. Wind is high so tarps went back up. Got a read of 7.3 on basically all plants. I don't get it. I'll have to lower what I'm putting in. I also need to figure out the earwig situation and get off my ass and MAKE time to prune the insides and treat the PM. I did this shit last year when I had COVID so I can do it with a stomach flu. UPDATE: I finally got around to applying the lost coast plant therapy. Two hours later and I'm pretty sure I applied it properly. I took some immediate pictures. I also watered a little before treatment. Found and killed two japanese beetles (which I think are the culprits behind the unknown damage). Fucker was on the top of a starting cola way taller than me. I never would've seen him if I didn't treat. I'm going to need to use a ladder and inspect tops a little more closely. On another not WE ARE IN FLOWER!! No question about it. The "spears" are starting to thicken and beginning to start flowers. It was so much more apparent this afternoon. Probably because I was pruning the interior and defoliating as well as getting close to spray. I'm beyond psyched and im going to start reduced dosages of tiger bloom. I'm also going to try to pH my water lower and see if that doesn't make a difference. 8/1 Soil was wet so I didn't water. LCPT did great at eating up that PM. The plant in the tub in the back seems like it may have a virus or something. It just seems weak. It reveged as well. I'll keep an eye on it. If it continues with a weak appearance i'll get a second opinion and if it truly is a virus i'll trash it. I'm not going to risk the rest of my plants. I'm experimenting with the plant. I have the branches tired down at 90 degree angles. I'm thinking about adding a dry amendment and top dressing. I have work to do next week. Weather has been awesome. Sunny. It was 49 this morning though. 75 at noon.

This week has been just keeping them happy/learning the needs of the grow room to keep a steady environment. The humidifiers are pushing hard to keep it at 65~70 so im sure once I bump the RH down next week It will be more manageable. I have to fill humidifier #1 once a day but have to keep a eye on #2. It picks up the slack but it runs out every few days. Will start feeding on Monday so the plant can take the days to start rooting in the new pots. If you live in the south Publix reusable bags are .99 and are great 5gl~ fabric pots. Will find bin to put in the bottom of tent to be able to water to run off but I have time for that.

This week went pretty well, other than she stretched like crazy and I am now getting worried about running out of vertical space. I also had a few of my bottom leaves get a few brown and yellow spots on them. I did post some pics and asked a question, thank you for the responses, much appreciated! I am thinking about adding my Spyder Farmer LED 100 Watt light into the tent for the nebula auto because it is about 23 inches shorter than the sour diesel. I believe it would only raise my temp about 2 degrees, and possibly lower the humidity by one or two percent. I must say my dehumidifier has been a freaking stud, running 24X7 and not complaining. I should look into adding another unit, it has been in the mid 90's and muggy for about a week. So far I have to say I am super impressed and excited with this setup, the genetics, and with growing this wonderful plant in general. Already planning ahead to my next grow, and what I can do better. I have been enjoying myself and I really appreciate everyone who has taken the time to answer my questions! I am having a blast and am excited to see what this lady will give up in a few weeks!
