5/16 Chopped down the rest of Trainwreck that had another week on the first chopping. 5/18 Forgot to take video or pics of the last chop, but here is a video. Top row is all Trainwreck except the guy in the front right. Bottom is all Amnesia. 5/27 Long, slow dry at high 50s humidity. Trimming seemed okay, though tedious. Got 83 grams after subtracting the weight of the Grove bag! Not bad! Will update after curing.

Bonjour Ă  tous les padawans et les maĂźtres jedis Le LST est fini mon tronc en forme de colonne vertĂ©brale fais un tour sur lui meme (vidĂ©o jour32) cette forme me satisfait pleinement je dĂ©cide donc de retirer la majoritĂ© des fil de fer servant au LST Le pincage d'Apex offre Ă  la plante une canopĂ© homogĂšne (photo jour 32 34) Jour33 arrosage avec 2 litres d'eau ph6 Ă  laquelle j'ajoute 0.5ml de topmax biobizz (dosage trĂšs lĂ©ger pour ne pas provoquer un lock-out) cela favorisera son entrĂ©e en floraison. J'effectue une lĂ©gĂšre defolliation pour permettre une meilleure pĂ©nĂ©tration lumineuse aux apexs du bas. Quesque la defolliation ? LES CULTIVATEURS AMATEURS, PRENEZ GARDE, MAIS NE PRENEZ PAS PEUR La dĂ©foliation consiste Ă  retirer les feuilles des plants de cannabis en intĂ©rieur afin d'accroĂźtre le rendementfinal. Le cultivateur amateur doit faire preuve de vigilance lorsqu'il commence Ă  appliquer cette technique de taille. MalgrĂ© le dĂ©bat sans fin entre ceux qui prĂŽnent cette technique et ceux qui la dĂ©nigre, il n'y aucune raison pour qu'un amateur ne s'y essaie pas afin de voir si ça lui convient ou non. COMMENT DÉFOLIER Que vous tailliez les feuilles ou les branches des plants de cannabis, il vaut mieux utiliser un sĂ©cateur stĂ©rile qui est confortable en main. Arracher des feuilles Ă  la main manque de finesse et engendre souvent par accident, l'arrachement des couches d'une tige en plus de la feuille. L'objectif principal de la dĂ©foliation est de permettre une meilleure pĂ©nĂ©tration de la lumiĂšre et de promouvoir la production de plus grosses tĂȘtes. Les feuilles Ă©ventails qui font de l'ombre doivent ĂȘtre retirĂ©es. Tailler la tige principale et/ou les pousses secondaires n'est pas de la dĂ©foliation. La rĂšgle d'or lorsque vous donnez Ă  vos plantes un rafraĂźchissement est de commencer avec les feuilles nourriciĂšres les plus grandes et les plus larges, en taillant du bas vers le haut. Il est important de retirer les feuilles stratĂ©giquement et non pas au hasard. Pensez Ă©galement qu'il vous faut limiter votre rafraĂźchissement Ă  approximativement 10 Ă  20 % des feuilles totales de votre pied. Il est trĂšs facile de s'emporter durant la taille et de se retrouver avec des plantes chauves. Un excĂšs de taille de feuilles empĂȘchera la photosynthĂšse et paralysera vos plants. QUAND FAUT-IL DÉFOLIER Il est assez rare d'appliquer la dĂ©foliation comme seule technique pour obtenir un fort rendement. La taille des feuilles est gĂ©nĂ©ralement associĂ©e Ă  d'autres mĂ©thodes de tailles et de palissage pour un meilleur rendement telles que le topping ou Ă©tĂȘtage, le FIMming, le LST, le manifolding, le supercropping et le ScrOG. Les cultivateurs utilisant la mĂ©thode ScrOG auront besoin de retirer toutes les croissances infĂ©rieures ainsi que les feuilles et les tiges se trouvant sous le filet. Les plants de cannabis peuvent ĂȘtre dĂ©foliĂ©s dĂšs lors qu'ils sont passĂ©s de la phase de plantule vers la phase de croissance vĂ©gĂ©tative. Cependant, il est recommandĂ© aux cultivateurs amateurs de laisser aux plantes 1 Ă  2 semaines de croissance vĂ©gĂ©tative avant de s'attaquer Ă  la dĂ©foliation de celles-ci. De plus, certaines variĂ©tĂ©s sont plus sensibles Ă  la taille que d'autres et de ce fait, seront plus stressĂ©es par la taille des feuilles. Surveillez minutieusement le comportement de vos plants aprĂšs la taille. Une pĂ©riode de convalescence de minimum 3 Ă  7 jours avant de recommencer la dĂ©foliation est fortement recommandĂ©e pour Ă©viter trop de stress aux plants. Les cultivateurs peuvent Ă©galement dĂ©folier pendant la phase de floraison, ce qui permettra Ă  l'Ă©nergie de la plante d'ĂȘtre concentrĂ©e vers la production de tĂȘtes tout en limitant l'ombre et l'excĂšs d'humiditĂ©. NĂ©anmoins, il est important de ne pas dĂ©folier trop tard sous peine de simplement blesser ses plants inutilement. LES AVANTAGES DE LA DÉFOLIATION Évidemment, l'avantage numĂ©ro un de la dĂ©foliation, c'est l'augmentation du potentiel de rendement de cette technique de taille pour tous types de cannabis allant de la photopĂ©riode aux variĂ©tĂ©s autofloraison. Ce n'est pas un secret que les fleurs qui reçoivent plus de lumiĂšres deviennent plus grandes et larges que celles dissimulĂ©es dans l'ombre des feuilles. De plus, retirer les feuilles intĂ©rieures des plants touffus aide Ă  prĂ©venir toutes menaces de moisissure. Les plants trĂšs feuillus avec un feuillage intĂ©rieur dense produiront une quantitĂ© importante de tĂȘtes pop-corn. Dans le pire des cas, les branches de tĂȘtes et les tĂȘtes qui sont denses succomberont au pourrissement. Si vous observez des gouttes d'eau se former sur la surface des feuilles, il est grand temps de penser Ă  faire de la dĂ©foliation. LibĂ©rer la zone infĂ©rieure et mĂ©diane des feuilles est un excellent moyen d'amĂ©liorer la circulation de l'air. LES DÉSAVANTAGES DE LA DÉFOLIATION Les plants de cannabis en intĂ©rieur bĂ©nĂ©ficient de la dĂ©foliation pour deux raisons. La premiĂšre est parce qu'ils reçoivent la lumiĂšre d'une source stationnaire au-dessus d'eux, et la deuxiĂšme est parce que les conditions environnementales sont contrĂŽlĂ©es par le cultivateur et non MĂšre Nature. Les plants d'extĂ©rieurs eux, n'y gagnent pas beaucoup, car les cas Ă©chĂ©ants se vĂ©rifient pour eux. Le soleil traverse le ciel, illuminant sur sa route, diffĂ©rentes portions de la plante de son lever Ă  son coucher. Les cultivateurs en extĂ©rieur n'ont pas besoin de manipuler les plantes afin qu'elles se dĂ©veloppent en adoptant une structure plate puisque le soleil est infiniment plus puissant que n'importe quelle lampe de culture et qui plus est, il est toujours en mouvement. Tailler les feuilles des plants extĂ©rieurs les rend Ă©galement plus vulnĂ©rables aux conditions humides et brise leurs barriĂšres naturelles contres les nuisibles. De nombreux cultivateurs d'intĂ©rieur peuvent, et malheureusement, c'est souvent le cas, rĂ©duire le rendement final Ă  cause d'une dĂ©foliation faite au mauvais moment et/ou excessive. Tailler les plantules n'est pas conseillĂ© et engendre souvent des plants nains. Scalper les plants matures est encore pire, et au lieu d'obtenir de longues branches de tĂȘtes, vous obtiendrez probablement encore moins de fleurs. De mĂȘme, tailler des plants malades ou en mauvaise santĂ© Ă  n'importe quelle pĂ©riode de la croissance risque de paralyser la croissance plutĂŽt que d'encourager la formation de fleurs denses. Que la force soit avec vous đŸ’Ș

Week 11 (10-4 to 16-4) 10-4 Temperature: 24.4 degrees (lights on) 21.1 degrees (lights off) Humidity: 60% (highest) 52% (lowest) No pictures. Added 10L to the reservoir, and turned it on for a couple of minutes. 11-4 Temperature: 24.4 degrees (lights on) 21 degrees (lights off) Humidity: 61% (highest) 52% (lowest) 12-4 Temperature: 25.5 degrees (lights on) 22 degrees (lights off) Humidity: 65% (highest) 57% (lowest) Turned the reservoir on for a couple of minutes. 13-4 Temperature: 26.5 degrees (lights on) 23 degrees (lights off) Humidity: 65% (highest) 56% (lowest) 14-4 Temperature: 26.4 degrees (lights on) 22.1 degrees (lights off) Humidity: 64% (highest) 45% (lowest) Turned the reservoir on for a couple of minutes. The reservoir is almost empty, there is 850 ml left. 15-4 Temperature: 24.4 degrees (lights on) 20 degrees (lights off) Humidity: 59% (highest) 49% (lowest) No pictures. 16-4 Temperature: 23.5 degrees (lights on) 19.5 degrees (lights off) Humidity: 60% (highest) 53% (lowest) Today i defoliated both plants heavily for the last time, you can say i did a method called: schwazzing. Dont know why but while i was defoliating the Chemdog smelled a little bit like soap haha. Turned on the reservoir for a couple of minutes. (Till the AutoPots are full and the valve closes) Rised the pots aswell, so the canopy is very even. I let them recover from the heavy defoliation i did, and next week i will slowly increase the light's strength. (Now still at 50% 50cm)

In my quest for the perfect modern grow room, I got my hands on a super cool device: SensorPush. Each SensorPush is a tiny low-energy-bluetooth thermomether+hygrometer. I have 1 sensor in the indoor tent and 1 sensor in the outdoor micro greenhouse. Both are connected to the "SensorPush Wifi Gateway", allowing me to access to the datas at anytime from anywhere in the world. SO COOL! I started to collect datas more than a week ago and it has been already so helpful, I noticed that every single adjustment (side fan speed, thermostat mix/max, window opened/closed, driver dimming..) has a direct and immediate impact on the environment, and being able to see the detailed live statistics is the perfect way to adjust the parameters. I had one important issue this week: my timer was acting weird and the light was turning on 40 mins while the plants were in the middle of their night, but thanks to SensorPush I was able to notice the problem immediately and fix what could have gone dramatical. I love these sensors so much that I've started to dig into the SensorPush API, and guess what: after a few minutes I was able to get the datas showing up on my webcam feed, so now my webcam app is also showing me the temp+RH! SO COOL! Thanks for stopping-by and stay tuned for more big-data 😎

It was such a nice experience for me with this strain, first time ever growing her, she had a little bit of long internodes and thought she wasn't gonna be very productive, however the nuggets are so so hard and compact and the quality is just brutal, doesn't even look like she's s been outdoor grown, I love this strain for the rare strong smell like very sweet and floral with that strange diesel notes mix the sweet tones, I would love be growing her my whole life, I definitely will keep growing this lady FOR SURE!. thank you so much and hope you guys enjoy! 💎🙏🔝💚

So where I live we had a really bad storm it had knocked out my power for a full 24 hrs so I had to give them some extra attention to insure there was no mold or any pest with no fan rotation. Then I also had to put them back on there proper timer to get things back on a roll so far so good they still look and smell amazing wish me luck

Beginning of week.. I went ahead and bumped the TDS to 1000 PPM this week. I don't think I'm going to go much higher than that. Usually don't have to.. Hopefully that's not too much.. I also started adding a bloom booster from Advanced Nutrients called Kushie Kush.. It works great for all strains tho lol. So the runoff is still acting up.. But it is getting better... Slowly. I emailed General Hydroponics on the issue a few days ago and they have not gotten back to me yet... Ugh. But going in: 1000 PPM.. Runoff: 700 PPM.. That was this morning.. Still have not given her plain water yet.. Just been feeding every watering.. Not really any signs of issues right now. A couple leaves are a little yellow (literally 2).. Another couple have some spots (maybe 4 or 5 leaves).. But other than that she is happy, healthy and smelling like a fucking champion! Seriously fucking delicious.. And to think the smell is supposed to warn off predators.. Hah! Good luck with that!!! Barely 8 days of flowering and she is already stacking so fucking nicely! I can't wait to see what kinda magic this gal is gonna do! So happy and excited!!! The light sits about 18 inches from the canopy right now at 100% power. She is still stretching a little but seems like she may be done with that pretty soon.. Maybe even before this week is over. Clones didn't make it.. I think it was too cold. They all sprouted roots but just stopped and they all yellowed out like a mf'r.. Looked like shit so I took them out back Ol' Yeller style and put them out of their misery 😭.. But it's ok.. The mama needs all the focus on her right now! Lol.. Oh yeah.. I went ahead and pulled a couple of the tallest branches down.. Just a tad.. Brought the ties up a node or so on each and pulled it tight.. Spread her out a little but I was nervous of snapping one off so I didnt try to push it too much.. These branches are tough af! Later that day.. General Hydroponics finally got back to me.. They said that I'm an idiot for using FloraKleen during transition like that.. Lol jk.. They did say that I should have NOT done that.. And that my runoff should ALWAYS be lower than it is going in due to the ppant taking up the nutrients.. But that just doesn't seem right to me.. Ive ALWAYS had my runoff higher.. Literally ALWAYS.. but without issues. They said that if the runoff PPM is higher, then there's a problem.. Maybe if I was doing frequent fertigation.. But I'm not.. And never will because that just sounds like a waste of nutrients.. But whatever.. Today I learned that FloraKleen is ONLY for pre-harveat flushing.. Or hydroponic reservoir cleaning in between nutrient changes.. But definately not the way I used it lol.. Thankfully she is still doing good 👍... Buuuut whoops lol Mid week.. Still doing magical things! Lol.. I didn't think she was gonna fill out this tent so nicely! Trichomes are forming nicely.. The purpling is looking amazing also! Some spots on SOME leaves.. But not alot.. Not sure what that is about.. No pests.. No deficiencies as far as I can tell.. Maybe just a mutation? Nothing to worry about tho.. This girl is so fucking gorgeous! I love it!.. Back to feed, water, feed, water, etc. schedule now.. I'm hoping that 1000 PPM isnt going to be too high for her.. But if it is, I will adjust accordingly. End of week.. Seems to me like the stretching has stopped.. So I'm going to cut out the FloraGro.. Double up on the FloraBloom and later into flower I will bump up the Kushie Kush Bloom Booster. She's doing great! Smells fucking amazing! I thought my ETHOS Early Lemon Berry R1 was gonna be the best strain ever.. Then I grew this girlie! Not just a lemony scent.. But like a very sweetened lemonade.. Incredible! Trichomes are EVERYWHERE! Such an awesome, beautiful strain! Good job FastBuds.. Can't wait to try more of your strains! Too bad you wont even acknowledge my grow journal like you do everyone elses.. But whatev.. Lol.. On to the next week!!!...

Looks like the girl on the right paused her flowering, vegged for a week and then started flowing again. An amazing plant.

Incredibly, they both gave almost the same, 70 grams each. good quality but it was below expectations I felt a difference compared to the autos in the first round. maybe my fault or genetics đŸ€”đŸ˜…đŸ€Ș

Day 1 - 7 L watering with around 1000 ppm and 6.5 ph Day 3 - 7 L watering with around 950 ppm and 6.4 ph Day 5- 7 L watering with around 850 ppm and 6.3 ph Day 7- 7 L watering with around 850 ppm and 6.3 ph During this and last week plants got a few burn tips so I am starting to reduce nutrients gradually and will finish of with 1-2 weeks of R/O water. First Peyote is getting big and is growing new sets of white hairs, Both Cheeses is much smaller and less frosty while Second Peyote is having lots of orange hairs and by the looks of it is only a few weeks away. Still Hoping to harvest all at the same time and will try to time the harvest in that timeframe so all plants are ready. So around 3-4 more weeks seems to be the case.

Hi Gromie's, all is ok, humidity levels have been better since starting drip feeds due to water now in resovoir. Temps need to come up a bit. Have upgraded to a new Mars Hydro fce 4800 bar light. Really nice light , excited to see how it performs. Have increased nutes & feeding every 2 hours as of today . Plant is compact & close between nodes. Untill next week enjoy natures greatest gift smoke upđŸ€˜đŸ‘đŸ€Ș
