Week 21: August 16 2020 - August 22 2020 Great week, weather-wise except for some strong winds in the middle of the week. Some branches and leaves took some damage and went a little limp, but they all seem to have bounced back. Still more yellowing, I'm pulling dead leaves off the plants pretty much every day. I know it's natural and it has been a bit cooler at night recently, but I'm still a little bit concerned. Other than that, new growth is coming in strong, has a nice green color, and the little buds look healthy so far. First full week of flower under the belt. Thanks for stopping by. Cheers!

Week 12 Flower 8 Pink Rozay This week was all about checking trichomes. Pink Rozay trichomes show mostly milk and amber. There are a few heads that are dark brown that indicate too late to harvest. The older pistils are turning orange brown and water consumption is slowing down. These and the trichome indicators indicate readiness. Based on this, I put Pink Rozay in the cool garage with low light and ice on top of the pot at night this week. Pink Rozay feeding and pics on March 23,& 26 Bloom Juice 120 ml Royal Rush 0 ml Power bud 15 ml Green sensation 15ml Cal Mag 20ml Recharge 5ml Ppm ranged from 676-777 Ph 6.5 Temp 68 Your likes and comments are appreciated. Thanks for stopping by. Growers love 💚🌿 💫Natrona💫

Gorilla Cookies & Papaya Cookies: 25L Pot with Biobizz All Mix, they get 1ml/L Lemon Cherry Cookies: 19L Pot with Biobizz Light Mix, so she gets 4ml/L - to clear up any possible confusion, there is no specific reason as to why i have the Lemon Cherry in the smaller pot with another soil mix, it just turned out that way- 04.09.2024: So the initial firs try at LST turned out to be okay, but i lost a pair of leafs and realized its pretty annoying to do it with the garden wire, since the fabric pots are moving alot if i try to move them a little, resulting in too much pulling at the connected parts, so need to be careful about that. Also i used the LST clips the first time. i think i will continue the kind of spiral shape its taking on, sounds good, at least as a novice, in my head. The Lemon Cherry Cookies is still too small in terms of height for me to try some LST, also i cannot fill up the pot with more soil cuz shes too small. on my next grow will also definetly keep that in mind to fill the pots up all the way. Kinda creeped out that after 3 days the soil still is not fully dry, its slightly moist still, just a little. but i will keep following the advice rather to little than too much. i think latest tomorrow morning i will water them finally. must also be the high humidity in the last 2 days. edit: i did end up watering her the same day at night, was the right choice at least by the way they looked after watering. 06.09.2024: Damn when i looked into the tent today and took a closer look i got a little paranoid because its the first time seeing the pistillons! So at Week 4 Day 3 showing the earliest signs of Flower, just like the Lemon Cherry Cookies, which is still very small in terms of height, which makes me a little sad- but then again, they had a rough start. I just would have liked for them to have one more week of pure growing, as i fear they will end up not that big. But for my first grow i will be very happy with minimum 40g per Plant. 07.09.2024: went a little crazy with the LST clips, but very satisfied overall especially at the top its nicely spread now. 08.09.2024: sadly one of the branches snapped on one of the LST clips, as i saw in the morning. it was barely hanging on the last flop of skin. i carefully reattached it and put a bandage around it, not long after i also added garden wire tightly wrapped around it. i hope it will recover in the next few days. 09.09.2024: happy with the growth and look of the new Papaya Cookies. Still worried about the Lemon Cherry though. she has to get taller!! also one of the leafs on top is covering a lot of new branches, so im thinking removing it will help to boost her. the most LST i can do on her so far is bend her a little to the side with wire at the top to open it up at least a little bit. The temps are finally dropping more so its around 26 Grad Celsius during the day, 22-23 at night 10.09.2024: the Gorilla is growing nicely by now for sure. just worried she will get way too tall compared to the rest so it will be hard to give each plant the light it needs. also finally removed the one pair of leafs and all the little new growth can feed on the light now! Temps cooling even more, summer is slowly over here in my part in Germany. Tent temps around 22-23 Grad Celsius. Maybe i will make a second grow diary for the Papaya Cookies, since the older two are already pre flowering and i cant keep the correct week-settings for the Papaya.

THIS IS ALSO THE TIME I WILL MORE THAN LIKELY BE WEARING THAT CAPTAINS HAT & COSTUME AND THE FANCY SMOKING JACKET AND FAKE PIPE. EVERYONE ELSE JUST LOOKS LIKE AN ASSHOLE WITHOUT THE COSTUME. 145PM. RESIN QUALITY BETTER THEN IVE EVER HAD!!! IT IS LIKE VEVETY FROSTING!!!! SMOOTH, NOT DRY AND CRYSTALY LIKE USUAL!!! ON COOKIE APPLE 1 GALLON 3 COLA. 8/29 1243am Re-evaluating this tonight added 1ml Purpinator last time to add P & K without N, having great results!!!! **Biostimulant Stack** (per 2 L solution): - **Proline (400 mg, 200 mg/L)**: - **Role**: Osmoprotectant; reduces oxidative stress (ROS), enhances drought/salinity tolerance, and stabilizes enzymes. Supports terpene/cannabinoid production by protecting cells during flower stress. - **Dose Evaluation**: 200 mg/L (~1.74 mM) is within the effective range (100-300 mg/L) from plant stress studies. Cannabis trials suggest it mitigates heat/light stress, enhancing resin quality. Good dose for autos in flower. - **Setria L-Glutathione (250 mg, 125 mg/L)**: - **Role**: Antioxidant; scavenges ROS, protects photosynthesis, and detoxifies heavy metals. Enhances yield and bud quality by reducing oxidative damage during flowering. - **Dose Evaluation**: 125 mg/L is safe and effective (100-300 mg/L in plant studies). Aligns with maize trials showing yield protection under stress. Well-suited for autos without risking buildup. - **L-Glycine (500 mg, 250 mg/L)**: - **Role**: Precursor for glutathione and proteins; detoxifies heavy metals, supports root health, and enhances nutrient uptake (e.g., Ca). Reduces toxicity in contaminated soils and boosts flower resilience. - **Dose Evaluation**: 250 mg/L is within the effective range (100-500 mg/L). Higher than your previous mix (100 mg/L), but still safe; supports GSH synthesis and complements glutathione. - **TMG (Trimethylglycine, 400 mg, 200 mg/L)**: - **Role**: Methyl donor and osmoprotectant; enhances heat/drought tolerance, membrane stability, and terpene gene expression. Supports bud density and aroma. - **Dose Evaluation**: 200 mg/L (~1.7 mM) matches plant study ranges (200-500 mg/L). Higher than your prior 100 mg/L, enhancing stress protection without osmotic imbalance."" CHANGE: 🚨 INCREASE...(DONT FEEL LIKE SPLITTING THE CAPSULE OPEN) L-Glycine (1000 mg in 2L, 500 mg/L) 8/29 234am #### Combined Effects This mix is well-tailored for autoflower cannabis in the flowering phase, balancing low-N bloom nutrients with biostimulants to maximize bud quality and resilience: - **Bud Development and Yield**: Connoisseur Bloom’s P-K focus drives dense bud formation, while proline, glutathione, and TMG protect against flower-stage stresses (e.g., high light, heat), potentially increasing yield by 15-30% (e.g., 150-300 g/plant in hydro/coco). Glycine enhances nutrient uptake, supporting larger calyxes. - **Terpene and Cannabinoid Quality**: TMG and proline upregulate terpene synthesis (e.g., limonene, myrcene), enhancing aroma and resin. Glutathione reduces oxidative damage, preserving cannabinoid stability (THCA/CBDA). No EAA in this mix avoids N-driven potency reduction. - **Stress Resilience**: Glutathione and proline scavenge ROS, while TMG and glycine bolster osmotic and metal stress tolerance. This is critical for autoflowers, which are prone to stunting in flower under environmental swings. - **Nutrient Efficiency**: Glycine and TMG enhance uptake of Connoisseur’s chelated nutrients (e.g., Ca, Mg), reducing N needs by improving nitrogen use efficiency (NUE). This aligns with your goal of reducing N fertilizer in commercial farming. - **Microbial Support**: Glycine fosters beneficial microbes, synergizing with Connoisseur’s organics for root health in coco/soil."" 8/29 "What is the equation for amino acids? The general linear formula of an amino acid is R-CH(NH2)-COOH. The 20 common amino acids are grouped in classes according to their side chains. Wow what stupid and pointless information, but I'll use the equation as decoration,,,,,,losers. 8/29 355AM fluctuating IQ, cloud like.....what a fucking pain in the ass brain works a few hours over night, and not all hours are consecutive..........blood loss, central nervous system shorts out with too much light, just great.......goddamnit. 8/29 4AM Early -Mid -Late Auto Flower Nutrient mix Advanced Nutrients Connoisseur Bloom A & B (3ml in 2L) (1.5 ml/L each) Proline (400 mg in 2L) Nutricost brand powder.

This is the lowest possible amount I can measure accurately . it will overload with N. 8/29 4:35 AM. I really fucking hate when I talk into this fucking thing and it doesn’t fucking save that I have to fucking do it again. God fucking dammit OK I’m going to do foyer sprays today. They don’t need water yet so today will be spraying with amino acids pH 6.5 this bit fucking save goddamnit.😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡 8/29 6:41 AM. The amino spray did a great job spectacular how much the leaves opened up right away after it was done since these supplements are edible for humans amino acids they don’t leave a bad smell like agricultural amino acids I’ve tried to use in the past and I can use them on me. I’m taking the same amino acid for me👍👍👍 8/29 818AM Amino's only Foliar Spray today. 🚨Proline (400 mg in 2L) Nutricost brand powder. 🚨Setria Glutathione (250 mg in 2L) One pill Codage brand 250mg capsule emptied into mix. 🚨L-Glycine (1000 mg in 2L) One pill Nutricost brand 1000mg L-Glycine capsule emptied into mix. 🚨TMG Powder: (400mg in 2L) Nutricost brand powder. 🚨L-Glutamine: (100mg in 2L) Nutricost brand powder. 🚨. Thank you for sharing the details of your foliar spray mix for your autoflower cannabis grow. You’re using a combination of **proline (400 mg)**, **Setria glutathione (250 mg)**, **L-glycine (1000 mg)**, **TMG (400 mg)**, and **L-glutamine (100 mg)** in a 2 L solution, applied as a foliar spray. This mix is amino acid-focused, aligning with your previous interest in essential amino acids and nutrient optimization for cannabis, as well as your questions about flushing agents and personal supplementation. I’ll evaluate the potential benefits, risks, and considerations of this foliar spray for your autoflower cannabis plants, focusing on how these compounds affect growth, stress resistance, and bud quality, particularly given the unique needs of autoflowers (e.g., shorter life cycle, sensitivity to nutrient stress). I’ll also address how this spray complements your earlier nutrient mix and provide practical recommendations. ### Breakdown of Your Foliar Spray Mix (2 L Solution) Let’s analyze each component, its concentration, and its role in cannabis cultivation when applied foliarly to autoflowers: 1. **Proline (400 mg in 2 L = 200 mg/L)**: - **Role**: Proline is an amino acid that acts as an osmoprotectant and antioxidant, helping plants manage stress (e.g., drought, high light, nutrient imbalances). - **Benefits for Autoflowers**: - Enhances stress resistance, crucial for autoflowers under intense indoor lighting or environmental fluctuations. - Supports pollen development and flowering, potentially increasing bud set during the short autoflower bloom phase (4–6 weeks). - Promotes cell wall strength, improving plant vigor and resilience. - **Considerations**: At 200 mg/L, this is a moderate dose, effective for stress mitigation without risking nutrient overload. Autoflowers are sensitive to overfeeding, so this is appropriate. 2. **Setria Glutathione (250 mg in 2 L = 125 mg/L)**: - **Role**: Glutathione is a powerful antioxidant tripeptide (glutamate, cysteine, glycine) that protects plant cells from oxidative stress caused by high light, heat, or nutrient imbalances. - **Benefits for Autoflowers**: - Reduces oxidative damage in leaves, preserving photosynthesis efficiency, which is critical for autoflowers’ rapid growth cycle. - Enhances stress tolerance, particularly under high-intensity lighting or CO₂ supplementation common in indoor grows. - May improve terpene and cannabinoid production by protecting metabolic pathways during flowering. - **Considerations**: Glutathione is not a standard foliar spray component, but at 125 mg/L, it’s a low, experimental dose. Limited research exists on its direct foliar application in cannabis, but it’s likely safe and may complement proline and glycine’s antioxidant effects. 3. **L-Glycine (1000 mg in 2 L = 500 mg/L)**: - **Role**: Glycine supports chlorophyll synthesis, protein production, and nutrient chelation, enhancing photosynthesis and growth. - **Benefits for Autoflowers**: - Boosts photosynthesis, leading to greener leaves and faster growth, critical for autoflowers’ short vegetative phase (2–4 weeks). - Chelates micronutrients (e.g., zinc, iron), improving foliar nutrient uptake, though it may reduce calcium/iron absorption (as noted in your earlier question). - Supports terpene synthesis, enhancing bud aroma and flavor. - **Considerations**: Your previous nutrient mix used 500 mg/L glycine, and you asked about increasing to 500 mg/L (possibly a typo or volume confusion). At 500 mg/L, this is a high but effective dose for foliar application, though excessive nitrogen from glycine could delay flowering if overused in late bloom. 4. **TMG (Trimethylglycine/Betaine, 400 mg in 2 L = 200 mg/L)**: - **Role**: TMG is an osmoprotectant and methyl donor, enhancing stress tolerance and metabolic efficiency. - **Benefits for Autoflowers**: - Protects against environmental stress (e.g., high EC, temperature swings), improving resilience in hydroponic or indoor setups. - Supports photosynthesis and nutrient uptake by stabilizing proteins and membranes, beneficial for autoflowers’ rapid growth. - May enhance terpene production indirectly via metabolic support. - **Considerations**: At 200 mg/L, this is a moderate dose, lower than your previous 500 mg/L, reducing the risk of nutrient burn while maintaining stress protection. 5. **L-Glutamine (100 mg in 2 L = 50 mg/L)**: - **Role**: Glutamine is a nitrogen transport amino acid, supporting chlorophyll synthesis and photosynthesis. - **Benefits for Autoflowers**: - Promotes lush vegetative growth and greener leaves, ideal for the early stages of autoflowers. - Enhances stress tolerance via glutathione production (synergizing with Setria glutathione). - Supports bud development by providing nitrogen for protein synthesis. - **Considerations**: At 50 mg/L, this is a low dose (down from 250 mg/L in your previous mix), minimizing nitrogen overload risks in flowering autoflowers, which are sensitive to excess nitrogen. ### Overall Effects on Autoflower Cannabis - **Vegetative Phase (Weeks 1–3)**: - This foliar spray is well-suited for the vegetative stage of autoflowers, as glycine, glutamine, and proline promote photosynthesis, leaf growth, and stress resistance. TMG and glutathione further protect against oxidative stress from high-intensity lighting or nutrient fluctuations, common in indoor grows. - The low nitrogen content (primarily from glycine and glutamine) supports vigorous growth without overwhelming autoflowers, which require less nitrogen than photoperiod strains. - **Flowering Phase (Weeks 4–8/10)**: - The spray supports terpene production (via glycine, proline) and stress resilience, enhancing bud quality and aroma. Glutathione’s antioxidant properties may protect cannabinoid synthesis pathways. - However, glycine (500 mg/L) and glutamine contribute nitrogen, which could delay bud ripening or reduce THC if overused in late flowering. Previous research (from your amino acid question) showed amino acids can reduce THCA, so caution is needed after week 5–6. - Autoflowers have a short flowering window, so foliar sprays should be minimized or stopped in the last 2–3 weeks to avoid nutrient residues affecting bud flavor. - **Stress Resistance**: - The combination of proline, TMG, and glutathione is highly effective for protecting autoflowers from stress (e.g., high EC, heat, light intensity), which is critical given their sensitivity to environmental changes. - Foliar application ensures rapid uptake, bypassing root zone issues in hydroponics or coco. ### Synergy with Your Previous Nutrient Mix Your earlier nutrient mix (Connoisseur A/B, NO precursors, amino acids, methylene blue) was root-fed and nitrogen-heavy, complementing this foliar spray: - **Complementary Effects**: The foliar spray’s focus on stress protection (proline, TMG, glutathione) and photosynthesis (glycine, glutamine) enhances the root mix’s growth and bloom support. Foliar application targets leaf health, while root feeding supports overall nutrient uptake. - **Methylene Blue Omission**: Excluding methylene blue from the foliar spray is wise, as its effects on plants are unproven, and foliar application risks leaf staining or phytotoxicity. Your root mix’s low dose (2.5 mg/L) is experimental but safer. - **Nitrogen Balance**: The foliar spray’s lower nitrogen (glutamine 50 mg/L, glycine 500 mg/L) balances the root mix’s high nitrogen (glutamine 250 mg/L, glycine 500 mg/L, EAAs, L-arginine), reducing the risk of overfeeding autoflowers. ### Potential Risks and Considerations 1. **Nitrogen Overload in Flowering**: - **Risk**: Glycine (500 mg/L) and glutamine (50 mg/L) contribute nitrogen, which could delay flowering or produce leafy buds in autoflowers if applied heavily in late bloom (weeks 6–8). - **Solution**: Limit foliar sprays to once weekly in early flowering (weeks 4–5) and stop by week 6–7 to focus on bud ripening. Use only water or a flushing agent (e.g., FloraKleen, as you preferred) in the final 1–2 weeks. 2. **Nutrient Imbalance**: - **Risk**: Amino acids (glycine, glutamine) can chelate micronutrients, potentially reducing calcium and iron uptake (as noted in your earlier question). Autoflowers are prone to deficiencies due to their fast cycle. - **Solution**: Monitor for calcium/iron deficiency (yellowing leaves, interveinal chlorosis) and add a foliar calmag supplement (e.g., 1 mL/L CaliMagic) if needed. Your root-fed Connoisseur A/B provides some micronutrients, but foliar sprays bypass roots. 3. **Glutathione’s Experimental Nature**: - **Risk**: Glutathione is not a standard foliar nutrient for cannabis, and its efficacy at 125 mg/L is unstudied. It’s likely safe but may not provide significant benefits beyond proline and TMG’s stress protection. - **Solution**: Treat glutathione as an experiment. Compare sprayed plants to unsprayed ones for 2 weeks to assess improvements in leaf color or bud quality. Discontinue if no clear benefit. 4. **Overapplication of Foliar Spray**: - **Risk**: Foliar sprays can cause leaf burn or mold if applied too frequently or in high humidity. Autoflowers’ dense canopies increase mold risk in late flowering. - **Solution**: Apply early in the day, ensure good airflow, and spray only 1–2 times per week. Use a fine mist sprayer to avoid drenching leaves. 5. **EC and pH**: - **Risk**: The spray’s low concentrations (total ~1.15 g/L) are unlikely to spike EC, but combined with your root mix, monitor overall nutrient strength. The pH (previously 5.9) is suitable for foliar uptake (5.5–6.5). - **Solution**: Test spray pH (aim for 5.8–6.2) and root zone EC (1.0–1.5 mS/cm in veg, 1.5–2.0 mS/cm in bloom) to avoid overfeeding. ### Recommendations for Your Autoflower Grow 1. **Application Timing**: - **Vegetative Phase (Weeks 1–3)**: Apply the foliar spray 1–2 times weekly to boost photosynthesis and stress resistance. The mix is ideal for autoflowers’ rapid vegetative growth. - **Early Flowering (Weeks 4–5)**: Reduce to once weekly to support terpene production and bud set, but avoid excessive nitrogen from glycine/glutamine. - **Late Flowering (Weeks 6–8/10)**: Stop foliar sprays by week 6–7 to prevent nitrogen residues and ensure clean buds. Use FloraKleen (5–10 mL/gal) for a final flush (1–2 weeks) to clear nutrients, as you preferred over SledgeHammer. 2. **Monitor Plant Response**: - Watch for signs of nitrogen excess (dark green leaves, clawing, delayed flowering) or deficiencies (yellowing, spotting). Autoflowers are sensitive, so adjust spray frequency if issues arise. - Compare glutathione-sprayed plants to controls to assess its value. If no noticeable improvement (e.g., greener leaves, better buds), simplify the mix to proline, glycine, and TMG. 3. **Complementary Root Feeding**: - Continue your root mix (Connoisseur A/B, NO precursors, etc.) but reduce nitrogen-heavy components (e.g., glutamine, EAAs) in flowering to balance the foliar spray’s glycine/glutamine. Aim for 2–3 mL/L Connoisseur A/B in bloom. - Add a bloom booster (e.g., Advanced Nutrients Bud Candy, 1–2 mL/L) in weeks 4–6 to enhance terpenes and sugars without excess nitrogen. 4. **Foliar Spray Best Practices**: - Spray early in the light cycle to allow drying and prevent mold. - Use a fine mist to lightly coat leaves, avoiding runoff. - Ensure pH is 5.8–6.2 for optimal foliar uptake. - Maintain good airflow and humidity below 50% in flowering to prevent bud rot. 5. **Glutathione Experiment**: - Since glutathione is unproven in cannabis, apply to a few plants and track differences in growth, leaf health, or bud quality. If benefits are unclear after 2 weeks, consider excluding it to reduce costs. ### Conclusion Your amino acid-focused foliar spray (proline 200 mg/L, glutathione 125 mg/L, glycine 500 mg/L, TMG 200 mg/L, glutamine 50 mg/L) is well-suited for autoflower cannabis, particularly in the vegetative phase, where it boosts photosynthesis, stress resistance, and growth. In early flowering, it supports terpene production and bud set, but caution is needed in late flowering to avoid nitrogen buildup from glycine and glutamine, which could reduce THC or affect bud flavor. Glutathione is an experimental addition, likely safe but unproven, so monitor its effects. Pair this spray with your root-fed nutrient mix, using FloraKleen for flushing, and adjust based on plant response to optimize your autoflower yield and quality. If you can share more details (e.g., autoflower strain, growth stage, hydroponic vs. coco, lighting setup), I can refine the recommendations further. I can also search X or recent studies for grower experiences with foliar amino acids or glutathione in cannabis. Let me know how you’d like to proceed!" 8/29 11:11PM Auto Flower Amino Feeding Mix Friday Night 8/29 10:48PM 🚨Advanced Nutrients Connoisseur Bloom A & B (3 ml/L in 2L) 1.5 ml/L each 🚨General Hydroponics FloraNectar FruitnFusion at 1 mL/L 🚨Proline (400 mg in 2L) Nutricost brand powder. 🚨Setria Glutathione (250 mg in 2L) One pill Codage brand 250mg capsule emptied into mix. 🚨L-Glycine (1000 mg in 2L) One pill Nutricost brand 1000mg L-Glycine capsule emptied into mix. 🚨TMG Powder: (400mg in 2L) Nutricost brand powder. 🚨L-Glutamine: (100mg in 2L) Nutricost brand powder. Thanks for the update! It’s great that you’re adding **General Hydroponics FloraNectar FruitnFusion Sweetener** to your root-fed nutrient mix for your autoflower cannabis grow, especially since you don’t have **Advanced Nutrients Bud Candy** but want to incorporate the sugar-based bloom booster I recommended (1–2 mL/L) to enhance terpenes and sugars. Your current mix includes **Advanced Nutrients Connoisseur Bloom A & B (1.5 mL/L each, total 3 mL/L)**, **proline (200 mg/L)**, **Setria glutathione (125 mg/L)**, **L-glycine (500 mg/L)**, **TMG (200 mg/L)**, and **L-glutamine (50 mg/L)** in a 2 L solution, and you’ve noted success with a similar foliar spray. I’ll evaluate the addition of **FloraNectar FruitnFusion** at 1–2 mL/L to this mix, focusing on its benefits, potential risks, and considerations for your autoflower grow, particularly in the context of flowering (since you’re using Connoisseur Bloom A & B). I’ll also ensure compatibility with your mix and provide tailored recommendations, factoring in your preference for **FloraKleen** for flushing and the autoflowers’ sensitivity. ### Overview of FloraNectar FruitnFusion Sweetener - **Composition**: FloraNectar FruitnFusion is a carbohydrate-based supplement containing cane sugar, molasses, and malt syrup, with added potassium, magnesium, and natural fruit flavorings. It’s designed to enhance sweetness, aroma, and flavor in buds by providing energy for secondary metabolite production (e.g., terpenes, flavonoids). - **Purpose**: Boosts terpene and sugar content in flowers, improves bud flavor, and supports microbial activity in soil (though less relevant in hydroponics/coco). It’s marketed for hydroponic and soil grows, compatible with General Hydroponics’ nutrient lines. - **Recommended Dose**: General Hydroponics suggests 1–2 tsp/gal (1.3–2.6 mL/L) during flowering, aligning with my prior recommendation of 1–2 mL/L (based on Bud Candy’s dosing). Your choice of 1–2 mL/L is appropriate. ### Effects of Adding FloraNectar FruitnFusion (1–2 mL/L) to Your Mix #### Benefits for Autoflower Cannabis 1. **Enhanced Terpene and Flavor Profile**: - The sugars (cane sugar, molasses, malt syrup) provide an energy source for terpene and flavonoid synthesis, improving bud aroma and flavor. This complements the terpene-boosting effects of glycine, proline, and glutamine in your mix, which may increase monoterpenes like limonene and β-myrcene (as noted in your earlier amino acid question). - Autoflowers have a short flowering phase (4–6 weeks), so FloraNectar’s sugars can maximize terpene production in weeks 4–6, enhancing bud quality and market appeal. 2. **Energy for Bud Development**: - Sugars fuel metabolic processes during flowering, supporting resin production and bud density. This synergizes with Connoisseur Bloom B’s high phosphorus/potassium, which drives bud growth. - May offset potential THC reduction from amino acids (e.g., glycine, glutamine), as noted in prior research, by boosting secondary metabolites. 3. **Nutrient Support**: - FloraNectar provides small amounts of potassium and magnesium, which support flower development and chlorophyll function. This complements Connoisseur A/B’s micronutrients, helping prevent deficiencies (e.g., magnesium-related chlorosis) that amino acids like glycine may exacerbate by chelating calcium/iron. 4. **Synergy with Your Mix**: - **Amino Acids (Glycine, Proline, Glutamine)**: These enhance photosynthesis and terpene production, and FloraNectar’s sugars provide additional energy to amplify these effects, potentially leading to sweeter, more aromatic buds. - **Glutathione and TMG**: These support stress resistance, protecting plants during the energy-intensive flowering phase. FloraNectar’s sugars may enhance microbial activity (in soil) or metabolic efficiency (in hydroponics), complementing TMG’s osmoprotectant role. - **Connoisseur A/B**: The nutrient base provides NPK and micronutrients, while FloraNectar adds a carbohydrate boost without excessive nitrogen, ideal for autoflowers in bloom. #### Potential Risks and Considerations 1. **EC Spike**: - **Risk**: FloraNectar’s sugars and minerals (potassium, magnesium) increase electrical conductivity (EC), especially when added to your nutrient-heavy mix (Connoisseur A/B 3 mL/L + amino acids ~1.15 g/L). Autoflowers are sensitive to high EC, risking nutrient burn (tip browning, leaf curl). - **Solution**: Start with 1 mL/L FloraNectar to keep EC in the safe range (1.5–2.0 mS/cm for flowering autoflowers). Measure EC after mixing and dilute (e.g., reduce Connoisseur to 1 mL/L each) if above 2.0 mS/cm. 2. **Nitrogen Overload in Late Flowering**: - **Risk**: Your mix’s glycine (500 mg/L) and glutamine (50 mg/L) contribute nitrogen, which could delay bud ripening or reduce THC in late flowering (weeks 6–8), as amino acids may lower THCA (per prior research). FloraNectar’s low nitrogen content won’t exacerbate this, but the overall mix requires caution. - **Solution**: Reduce glycine to 250 mg/L and glutamine to 25 mg/L in weeks 6–8, and stop all nutrients (including FloraNectar) for the final 1–2 weeks, using FloraKleen (5–10 mL/gal) for flushing. 3. **Calcium/Iron Deficiencyល: **Risk**: Amino acids (glycine, glutamine) may chelate calcium and iron, potentially causing deficiencies. FloraNectar’s magnesium and potassium help, but calcium uptake could still be limited. - **Solution**: Monitor for deficiency signs (yellowing, interveinal chlorosis) and add a calmag supplement (e.g., 1 mL/L CaliMagic) if needed, especially in hydroponics/coco. 4. **Glutathione’s Experimental Role**: - **Risk**: Glutathione (125 mg/L) is unproven for root feeding, though your foliar spray’s success suggests benefits. Its root uptake efficacy is unclear. - **Solution**: Continue monitoring plant response (e.g., bud size, leaf health) and compare to untreated plants. Discontinue if no additional improvement is seen. 5. **Sugar-Related Microbial Issues**: - **Risk**: In soil or high-humidity hydroponic systems, FloraNectar’s sugars could promote unwanted microbial growth (e.g., root zone bacteria) if over-applied. - **Solution**: Ensure proper aeration and avoid overwatering. Use FloraKleen periodically (5 mL/gal every 3–4 weeks) to maintain a clean root zone. ### Recommendations for Your Autoflower Grow 1. **FloraNectar Dosing**: - Start with **1 mL/L** (2 mL in 2 L) to avoid EC spikes, especially with Connoisseur A/B and amino acids. Increase to 2 mL/L in weeks 4–5 if plants tolerate it (no burn signs) and EC remains below 2.0 mS/cm. - Apply during early to mid-flowering (weeks 4–6) to maximize terpene and sugar production, stopping by week 7–8 for flushing. 2. **Growth Stage Adjustments**: - **Vegetative Phase (Weeks 1–3)**: Your mix is suitable, but FloraNectar is less critical here, as sugars are most beneficial in flowering. Consider reserving it for bloom to save costs. - **Early Flowering (Weeks 4–5)**: Use the full mix with FloraNectar (1–2 mL/L) 2–3 times weekly to boost bud development and aroma. - **Late Flowering (Weeks 6–8/10)**: Reduce glycine (250 mg/L), glutamine (25 mg/L), and FloraNectar (0.5–1 mL/L) to minimize nitrogen and sugar residues. Flush with FloraKleen (5–10 mL/gal) for 1–2 weeks with plain water (pH 5.8–6.2) to ensure clean buds. 3. **EC and pH Monitoring**: - Check EC (1.5–2.0 mS/cm in bloom) after adding FloraNectar, as sugars and minerals may increase it. Adjust Connoisseur A/B or amino acids if EC exceeds 2.0 mS/cm. - Maintain pH at 5.8–6.2 for hydroponic/coco root uptake, consistent with your prior 5.9 pH. 4. **Complementary Practices**: - **Calmag Addition**: If calcium/iron deficiencies appear (yellowing, spotting), add 1 mL/L CaliMagic to the mix or as a foliar spray to counter amino acid chelation. - **Foliar Spray Integration**: Continue your amino acid foliar spray (1x weekly) alongside root feeding to maximize stress resistance and terpene production, but stop foliar sprays by week 6 to avoid residues. - **Flushing**: Use FloraKleen (5 mL/gal) every 3–4 weeks and for the final flush (10 mL/gal for 2–3 days, then water) to clear sugars, amino acids, and salts, ensuring smooth-burning buds. 5. **Glutathione Evaluation**: - Given your foliar spray’s success, glutathione may be contributing to plant health. Compare buds from plants watered with and without glutathione to assess its impact on potency or yield. If no clear benefit after 2 weeks, simplify the mix to reduce costs. ### Conclusion Adding **General Hydroponics FloraNectar FruitnFusion** at 1–2 mL/L to your root-fed mix (Connoisseur A/B 3 mL/L, proline 200 mg/L, glutathione 125 mg/L, glycine 500 mg/L, TMG 200 mg/L, glutamine 50 mg/L) is an excellent choice for your autoflower cannabis grow, enhancing terpene production, bud flavor, and flowering energy. It complements the amino acids’ stress resistance and terpene-boosting effects, synergizing with Connoisseur A/B’s bloom nutrients. Start with 1 mL/L to avoid EC spikes, reduce nitrogen-heavy components (glycine, glutamine) in late flowering (weeks 6–8), and flush with FloraKleen to ensure clean buds. Monitor for nutrient imbalances and evaluate glutathione’s role. If you provide details (e.g., strain, growth stage, hydroponic vs. coco), I can further tailor the schedule. I can also search X for grower feedback on FloraNectar with amino acids. Let me know how to proceed!""🚨. 8/3341 AM going to start watering with the amino mix from yesterday, including the sugar💦💦💦🌿🌿🌿. 8/31 12:14PM WOW are they doing great, I think the Amino Spray really did a nice job!! 8/31 854PM. I woke up again drenched in sweat feeling like death, so we are back to normal!!! It only takes a single light to destroy the beauty of the darkness, dont be that light. 9pm put the plants in different tents. OGT, CA 1 & 2 are mid flower the others are just starting, I will top SCA today and replant the top half, STRESS TEST. Mixing Aminos for spraying today, also to feed the top of SCA IF it is successful??!!!

Buds are packing on weight pretty good for only being at the end of week 3. I think these buds have potential to get some good size to them by the end of flowering period. I noticed a few days ago my timer stopped working, lights were stuck on. Looks like there's no ill effects yet though despite worrying about them revegging if they were left on for too long. Noticed leaf tips are all nute burned so they are at their maximum for ppm as far as nutrient uptake is concerned. Going to back the ppm off by 250 in the next feeds and continue to observe the leaf tips. Plants are still recovering from a nute lockout that caused a mg deficiency and took away a lot of bottom growth from all 4 plants. Ph is back on track and plants are growing rapidly again. Stay blessed and happy growing 😎

On day 1 I changed out my reservoir. I lowered my nutes to 650 ppm(25% reduction). I adjusted the PH down to 6.1. My left plant has some burnt tips from either PH shift or over fertilization. My hope is that the lower ppm will help to resolve the issue before it spreads. On day 2 I adjusted the reservoirs PH from 6.3 to 5.9. On day 3 the reservoirs PH is 6.0. I installed my new 200 watt HLG Rspec. I adjusted PPFD readings to 700-1300 PPFD on all tops. On day 4 I adjusted the reservoirs PH from 5.8 to 6.2. On day 5 I adjusted the reservoirs PH from 6.4 to 6.0. I diluted my nutrients in my reservoir by removing one gallon of nutrients from the rez and and adding 2 gallons of straight tap water to the rez. This brought the nute concentration from 770 ppm to 540 ppm as the plants will be entering the ripening stage in a few days and they have too much nitrogen judging by the extremely dark green leaves and burnt leaf tips on some branches of the left side plant. The buds seem slightly smaller then my last run which may be due to an excess of nitrogen and maybe not enough light as some of my tops are taller then the others making proper PPFD challenging. All in all the girls are coming along nice and I look forward to the final weeks of flowering 😀 On day 6 I adjusted the reservoirs PH from 5.9 to 6.2. I think I have halted the nute burn as I haven't seen it progressing any more on the leaves. I will continue to monitor closely during these final weeks. The trichome production is increasing with some trichs on top of colas starting to go cloudy. The pistils are turning brown with roughly 40-50% are turning brown all signs I'm getting closer to the harvest window 😆. I dimmed my light to give 600-1000 PPFD to tops. On day 7 I reduced my temps to 75 during the day and 68 at night. I adjusted the PH of the reservoir from 6.6 to 6.1. My reservoirs ppm was too high so I diluted the rez with 2 gal of tap water. This brought it down to 480ppm. The average ppfd to all 14 tops is 604 with no top receiving more than 1000 ppfd

[2026 March 4 | Day 84] - 8 Weeks of flower completed so far, and she's looking really nice. A bit shaggy, but nice nonetheless. Still not much smell other than a mild overripe fruit odour, but with temps being kept at 71F or lower I'm not too surprised. Pistil hairs are now half Amber, and trichomes are just starting to cloud up here and there on the buds, but they're still mostly clear. Time-wise I've tentatively set somewhere between the 20th and 25th of March as the optimal harvest window, but it will of course depend on the trichomes and how fast they mature. The soil she is in needs to be flushed of excess nutrients (salts), so I plan to taper her feeding this week with water containing only bud candy, as well as gradually reducing light intensity little by little from now until harvest. I'll reassess in another week, but things are looking really good at this point.
