*ADVISE NEEDED*
The day before yesterday I discovered a huge error in my system. I placed filter material in the feed-throughs of the breeding boxes. This is to prevent the roots from growing together over time.
However, what I caused with that is very difficult to explain. The bottom line is that the distribution of food and circulation was actually not good at all.
This also explained the differences in the water temperature, but also PH and EC values. That is now completely under control because it now runs stably for 2 days.
However, you can see that the records have had a bad start. I am thinking about starting over.
Week 3. Week 2 was looking for the correct settings for my system. I found out that the temperature in the bins is quite different. When I set the water chiller to 19 degrees, it all flows fine into the first container. There it rises about 0.5 degrees per bin. The margin of the chiller is about 1 degrees, causing too many fluctuations in the system, with tray 1 becoming too cold and the last one too cold.
I solved this by shielding the box at the inlet of the tent with heat-protective foil. I also put a fan on the water chiller. If that catches on, the entire loft heats up, whith more fluctiations.
However, I have enough space to measure very precisely and I am getting more and more control.
I think the brown leaves were the cause of much too hot water. Since I have the water temperature under control, I see that the new leaves are growing nicely. Moreover, since yesterday (13-5) I received the nutrition. 10 days late.
I just finish the root scheme I think. That is still 3 days a 70 mm per day combined with BioBizz Heaven.
I tried to take some pictures of the roots and some close ups.
I hold the lid with my left hand and with my right hand I try to take a picture zoomed in (max). While the wind makes the roots dance past my lens😵
Something different than usual ... Hope you like it.
If you see something that needs to be addressed, let us know. It is my first breeding so there will undoubtedly go wrong.
This week I also connected the water reservoir with which I can flush the entire system at once. With this I also control the Ph in the system. Will post photos soon.

will have to see but at 8 & 10 weeks, i think they look a little small. as long as i continue watering, this new maxsisun mf2000 should fatten these buds up. cant wait for next grow with the new light in 3x3 tent. this is becoming the best hobby i can recall next to working in my garden all summer. and this grow diary is great as you can have an honest review of progress etc...i have learned so much from this community. Thanks and Blessings for all!

Plain sailing this week , just water for the Sweet n Sour and the Blackberry Gum, the Cheesy auto just had one last feed of Iguana Juice and PK booster BAC . Few more days and the SNS and BG should be done.

Starting autopot system and root aeration this week. Stay posted for updates.
Day 1 You remember that movie "Training Day"? It's sorta like that. With a light trim for the buried leaves on lean.
Day 3 continued lst, also some defoliating to encourage growth and light up the nodes.
Day 7 did a final pin for the week. #5 and I had a tug of war, We both lost. Start somewhere other than the top when tieing. But otherwise I am real proud of my pinning and hope it's right on the money.

Three are coming along 1 is stunted will see if it recovers. Still to early to sex, maybe another week or two. I got my fingers crossed I will get at least one female. This is there 1st liquid feeding this week. the three are pretty dark green might have too much N in the coco amendments. I started out low with the feeding as I feel there are still dry amendments in the coco I do not want to over feed. I went 1/2 strength and added a little CAL MAG with the Enzymes and Mammoth P and the Fulife and Cargo Boost. I will keep a close eye in any signs of nuite burn this week. I hope to see some sex indicators in the next week or 2. stay safe all.

Up to now they looking pretty good and strong, even tho some of the plants are not as dense and is maybe a bit late to date with the other ones. Ill have to give them another 1 or 2 other weeks until harvest. The trichromes look preety good even tho.in the picture dosent show well. They starting to consume less water and the leaf colour is starting to fade slightly .

Alles im grünen Bereich.
Bis auf die Zeit .
Langsam sollt ich auf 12/12 stellen.
Hat jemand Erfahrung damit die Autos in den letzten 2 bis 4 Wochen -unterschiedlich je nach Genetik- den lichtzyklus zu verkürzen?

Having quite a bit of trouble with fading leaves, burning and just can't figure out what is going on. I've top dressed on Saturday to try give her a boost, it looks like potassium deficiency but it also looks a touch like toxicity too... very confusing.... so what I'm going to do is just give water until the end now. 4 weeks ish should be ok and I reckon I can limp her home if shit hits the fan. Hoping its just deficiency and the top dress will fix it. I've not overfed with amendments so I don't understand it really. The buds are still growing no problem and calyx are starting to swell in places... all a bit weird.

This week, I gave my plants more fertilizer to test if they show any signs of burning. Now, I'm stressed out! I think I should give myself some seaweed to relieve the stress 😂
The girls show signs of calcium deficiency. I sprayed a small amount of calcium and magnesium on them to help them recover faster. I’m not sure why the new leaves are very pale. Could they be lacking iron? I think the high soil moisture might be causing issues with iron absorption, but I’m not completely sure. I’ll wait and see what happens this week. Considering that I use regular water, I expected them not to have a calcium deficiency.

Hiii guys!! Everything's going!
Flowering .. bud sights getting bigger. Plant stopped growing more leaves .. isn't getting any taller. BDM 1 has more bud sights but they are smaller and BDM 2 has bitter bud sights but there are less. So you guys can see a comparison between the all natural and the stress training . Let's see if BDM 1 catches up! Stay tuned fam!

Hello. This is the end of week 9 and the beginning of week 10 of veg.
Quite week for the plants and us. It's above freezing now, but it's one storm after another here.
The plants are dong well and I'll turn over to flowering next week. I'll make clones at that time.
I'm after the best plant so I'll whittle the 14 plants down to 1 or 2 plants when I'm done.
But I have to take 3 clones of each to be sure I get 1 to regrow when it's done. So I'll be doing that this week.
My next trim/prune will be before the 3 week of flowering, before the resin starts to flow.
Through this veg I've been giving a full feeding and then just watering and then a full feeding and then just watering.... You get the idea...
I let the pots dry and hopefully water/feed before I get any wilting.
We've started a new Freak Bros. book. Comic Book #10 Published in 1987. It's the 3rd in the trilogy.
You'll find the first 2 comic books in the story in other diaries. Have a look around in my other diaries and you'll find them.
OK. Have fun out there.

Did some leaf removal had some powdery mildew on some leaves took infected leaves off, plus some for good measure. Drying out every day or two today she took one liter before run off. You can see in the video the colors? And sparkling buds?

Day 50
I decided to take the top buds in pics , 47 grams wet.
It is a 9-12 week strain but I think she need a week or two? But we will see.

This slurricane smells sweet and delicious. I spread the plants out a little this week so they get better light and air flow. Other than that I haven't done anything besides keep the reservoir full. Still pumping nutrients 1 minute on 20 minutes off. They are getting .5 tsp maxibloom per gallon. Not going to run any boosters this round. They dont look like they want or need it.
