Hey all! This was a crazy week. The girls continued growing up and have reached 30" (CBD+ and Moby Dick) and 23" (GG #4), pretty much outgrowing my vertical space. I removed my carbon filter (which was clogged and needing maintenance anyways) and pushed my LED lights all the way up, allowing CBD+ and Moby Dick to stay 7" away and GG#4 12" away. Although the LED manufacturer recommend a distance of at least 14", the girls seems to be liking the strong light and have not shown any light burns. One of the MD colas is only 4" away! ~~ Defoliation I've finally gained courage and heavy defoliated the girls (Schwazzing style). I removed one fan leave in each node + top leaves that were creating lots of shade. I'm looking forward to see the results of this so much controversial technique! ~~Feeding Since GG#4 presented some nut burns, they received only one scheduled feeding plus one "watering" (only Cal Mag, Florilicious Plus, and Molasses, Ph = 6.0). Next week I'll come back to the normal feeding schedule.

What a world of difference a week can make when growing auto-flowers. I did a lot of maintenance on these girls the last couple of days. See pics and videos. Two of the plants have stretched out nicely. The other three are falling behind, but looking very nice. There is a strong citrus smell happening right now. Smells like I have a tent full of fresh lemons. Started using Big Bud and Bud Candy this past week. Tent 2as getting quite crowded, so I also moved the water reservoir on the outside of the tent. It was very hard to cut a lot of those beautiful buds off the plants, but I think it will pay off. I also got the new Vivosun Grow Cams, so far I like them, but I do have some feed back.

Leaf tucking wasn't doing much, far too bushy so I started just to let it go. Cut some lowers after the pic was taken.

Well, not the biggest yield from my little mainline...28g of keeper buds and 28 grams of trim and little buds for RSO. The smell from the buds is hard to pinpoint. A little pine, a little sweet, a little chicken soup. Very much on the earthy side and affects are smooth and sedating. 100% some chill, social smoke or great for anxiety.

First Week for me to Start Documenting this Grow. It took a while for them to get to this point. Started the Seedlings on the window sill and the growth was pretty slow before i moved my tent from my garage to my house. From there on they grew pretty fine and really enjoyed beeing inside now. This should be week 2

During the second week of flowering for Purple Kush, here’s what you can expect and steps to ensure a successful grow: Plant Development 1. Bud Formation: Small pre-flower buds (calyxes) will begin forming along the nodes. Pistils (white hairs) may be visible. 2. Stretch Phase: The plant will still be stretching, potentially doubling in height as it transitions into full flowering mode. Care Tips 1. Lighting: Ensure a consistent 12/12 light cycle. Use strong flowering lights (HPS, LED) with red spectrum dominance. 2. Nutrients: Transition to flowering nutrients with a higher phosphorus (P) and potassium (K) ratio. Avoid overfeeding nitrogen to prevent leafy growth. Example: 1-3-2 NPK ratio is common in flowering. 3. Watering: Keep watering consistent but avoid overwatering. Allow slight drying of the topsoil between watering. 4. Temperature & Humidity: Ideal temperature: 65–80°F (18–26°C). Humidity: Reduce to 40–50% to prevent mold/mildew as buds develop. Training If you’re doing any low-stress training (LST), finish this early to avoid stressing the plant during full bloom. Remove any dying or large fan leaves blocking bud sites to improve light penetration. Monitoring Watch for pests like spider mites and early signs of mold or nutrient deficiencies. Look for healthy, vibrant leaves and steady growth in bud sites. By week 2, your Purple Kush should show noticeable progression in flower development, setting you up for a good yield in the weeks to come.

Verslag Derde Week Bloei: Seriotica Deze week bevind ik mij in de derde week van de bloeifase van mijn Seriotica-planten. Het is een cruciale periode waarin de ontwikkeling van de toppen duidelijk zichtbaar begint te worden. Hieronder beschrijf ik mijn observaties en acties. 1. Groei en Ontwikkeling De toppen zijn deze week flink toegenomen in omvang. De haren beginnen een melkachtige kleur te krijgen, en de harsproductie neemt zichtbaar toe. Bij aanraking ruik ik een intens aroma, wat een goed teken is voor de kwaliteit. 2. Verzorging Ik heb extra aandacht besteed aan: Voeding: Een aangepaste voedingsmix met extra fosfor en kalium om de bloei te ondersteunen. Ik heb de EC-waarde stabiel gehouden rond [waarde] en de pH gecontroleerd op [waarde]. Watergift: Dit heb ik aangepast aan de verhoogde behoefte door de groei van de toppen. Ik geef elke dag [hoeveelheid] ml water per plant. Lichtcyclus: De lichtintensiteit is stabiel op [waarde] gehouden, en de lichtcyclus blijft 12 uur aan en 12 uur uit. 3. Klimaat Het klimaat in de kweekruimte is stabiel gebleven: Temperatuur: Overdag rond de 24-26°C en 's nachts 18-20°C. Luchtvochtigheid: Ik heb de luchtvochtigheid verlaagd naar [waarde]%, om schimmelvorming te voorkomen. 4. Uitdagingen Ik merkte deze week een lichte verkleuring op enkele bladeren. Dit duidde op een mogelijk tekort aan magnesium. Ik heb onmiddellijk ingegrepen door [oplossing, zoals toevoegen van CalMag] toe te voegen aan de voedingsoplossing. 5. Verwachtingen Als alles volgens plan verloopt, verwacht ik dat de toppen de komende week nog verder zullen zwellen en dat de harsproductie verder toeneemt. Ik blijf alert op tekenen van stress of tekorten. --- Reflectie Deze week voelde ik me zelfverzekerd over de verzorging van mijn planten. Door consistent te monitoren en kleine aanpassingen te doen, heb ik het gevoel dat ik de planten optimaal kan ondersteunen. Ik kijk uit naar de verdere ontwikkeling! --- Als je specifieke details wilt toevoegen, zoals exacte voedingswaarden of observaties, laat het me weten!
