Buds are ripening and trichomes are starting to get cloudier. I expect two more weeks

Beginn Woche 3. Wasserwechsel und neue Nährlösung für den AutoPot angesetzt. Deutlicher Unterschied der beiden zu sehen (deutlich mehr Strech im AutoPot). Aber auch die 2. Im Airpot steht gut da. AutoPot 30l Tank (Gedüngt wird nach dem Plan von Terra Aquatica für Coco). Airpot wurde mit Greenhouse Feeding biolinie gedüngt je 4g/l Ende Woche 3 und was soll ich sagen... Bisher schaun beide gut aus, aber der Unterschied zwischen Airpot/AutoPot is schon Enorm (Vergleich hinkt etwas da ja auch Unterschiedlich gedüngt). Der EC ist recht hoch, hoffentlich geht's gut. Leitungswasser kommt mit 0,8 aus dem Hahn.....

Finishing 3th week of bloom

Buenas a todos!! Ya las he pasado al armario donde estarán hasta la cosecha, en este armario hay más espacio y más w de luz, en este hay 300w, lo hago así para ahorrar energía, pues es ahora a partir de la 4º semana de floración cuando va necesitando más lúmenes para engordar los cogollos. Más tarde cuando finalice la 5º semana también pongo una luz UV para que generen más resina. Como veis ahora están más separadas, por lo que correra mejor el aire entre ellas, pero para asegurarme de que no aparezcan hongos lo mejor es prevenir y usar Leaf Coat pulverizando vuestras plantas desde que lo uso no he visto ni bichos ni hongos. Voy aumentando La EC poco a poco, el PH lo mantengo a 6.3 pero lo subiré a 6.5 a lo largo de esta semana, voy alternando un riego con nutrientes, uno con agua solo a 0.45EC Plantas con una buena forma, buenisima distancia internodal, el único fallo es que el tallo es débil, por lo que tendré que poner tutores en el proximo riego aprovechando que está blando el sustrato, ya mismo se empiezan a ver los cogollos!! Saludos!!😃

after not being happy on how it was on week 13, i decided to push it this far. I'm more satisfied than i was, but I remain disappointed in apera instruments for screwing me over on IP67 warranty promise. They said after this replacement they wont do it again. total bs.

First week is over. Overall it going well. 4 of the 6 plants are excelling; super boof auto and gorilla z auto). The 2 strawberry gorilla autos are not doing very well. Right now for strawberry gorilla, I believe some of my issues may be genetics specific. Both plants exhibit same issues. Each one is in a different medium. The only constant is strawberry gorilla auto genetics. I am going to continue growing them for another week to evaluate options. One I am fairly sure is going to die. The other, while overall looking terrible, has some new growth starting that is a better healthier green. Hopefully it is just a rough first week. But these are autos. A rough start usually means a rough entire grow. Not necessarily that they will keep having issues, but due to short fixed veg time frame, these 2 have significantly lost growth time. The DIY IoT automation side of this grow/project is progressing nicely. I worked on the PAR sensor and have no deployed it for its first 24 hour “soak test” to ensure optimal operation for 24+ hours. If the soak test last, it means it’s pretty much ready to be deployed. The PAR sensor is quite good if I am being honest. I was able to verify my ss550 LED at ~1000 umol/s it is rated for at a specified height. Now is when these sensors start providing real value. First week of growth always requires low light levels/high light height to accomplish providing somewhere around 150-250umol for seedlings. Without the PAR sensor to use at the beginning, I do what I always do and adjust height and light levels. Unscientific, but it’s how most growers are doing it due to PAR sensors like apogee for the dli500/600 PAR sensor starting at 5+ and anything below this range usually is not a true PAR sensor and no longer of value outside of “consistency” checks. They are lab grade, they are meant to be, this explains their price. Apogee and other comparable sensors are also spot checkers. They are used to check, validate and log, but they are not meant to do it fast or at a rate that is useful beyond average DLI. They can’t be integrated into automation systems. They largely are siloed devices that work alone and must manually transfer logs for analysis. The Dfrobot PAR sensor is a real time, continuously polling, connected, that can be interacted with in real time and used to control automation. It is also industrial grade with ip67 rating compared to apogees ip65 (it’s a spot check probed not meant for automation integration). Basically, apogee are amazing sensors, but they fundamentally are unable to do what I want. This Dfrobot par sensor, while not lab grade, is nearly lab grade, which in turns bring the sensor significantly down in price compared to a “lab grade” sensor that cost 4x. I am not a researcher or a scientist. Lab grade is amazing, but I literally cannot abstract additional value for the statistically significant accuracy difference (remember statistics and our p value, statistically significant is often a very small number , but in the real world, it does not matter since I am not doing actual research nor needing perfect controls with only a single variable change. I am only one person. ;) Uhh… I think I got lost on a tangent, ultimately PAR sensor confirmed 251 umol/s, which is the maximum these should be getting. But 4 are thriving, 2 are not. I’m not adjusting the lights for the 2 struggling to the detriment of the others Now that the PAR sensor is running 24 hour soak test and about to be deployed full time, I’ll be focusing on the other two sensors; the 4 in 1 soil (ec, ph, soil temp, soil moisture) sensor and NPK sensor. All three of the sensors mentioned are connected by a single Ethernet wire for communication and power to simplify deployment. The 3 sensors will ultimately plug into a shared hub that allows for easy plug n play for these sensors and future ones. Hopefully by next weeks post I’ll have full logging of all sensor data to my timescale database which will store all sensors logged data for future analysis.

**** HAARVEST ZOE **** Nice Strain , My little Zoe really made all the mistakes you could possibly make. No matter when I give light or want water or fertilizer. It grows and grows and grows, the main thing is that there is light. It was one of my free seeds from Zamnesia. So far all seeds have germinated. I store my seeds in a dark, airtight container at 6°C. Tastes kind of sweet after curing. Greenhouse Feeding is a really easy fertilizer to use. I used the BioEnhancer again and again. My little Zoe thanked me. The BioGrow was used as topdressing and is doing its job. The BioBloom also does its job at the right time. And that's really great and easy if you don't have an autoflower. Of course there is a corresponding product. But I was happy to get anything here at all. Legalization has wiped out the market. But for next time I have an appropriate soluble fertilizer for fast-flowering plants. It doesn't work for 8 weeks :)) I use a Sanlight Evo 3-60 1.5 with Bluetooth dimmer. There's nothing to complain about there. Set daily cycle via app. Helpful if the weather or environment is so bad that you have to regulate the light intensity. 33g after 5 days dry . 24.5 °C to 22°C with 50%-60% . curing in a vaccum box at 18°C . It looks like I'm drying too long. // It tastes a bit crunchy. Day 79: trim , slow vacuum box to cure 22°C and 61%rH . Day 76: videostuff: been drying for 4 days (res 640x480) ( optical zoom x200 - x250 ) Day 72: DLI usage total this Plant : 2236.6 DLI in 70 Days . wet trimmed, cut off, hung upside down. see you after 14 days Day 71: preparing for harvest . 24h long night session . DLI : 0 Day 70: - Sanlight DaylightCycle - + ON 200PPFD (00:00) - 800PPFD (03:30) - 800PPFD (16:30) - 200PPFD (18:00) OFF video and photo tryouts with the digimicro mobil x300 optical zoom , mostly freehand Day 69: - Sanlight DaylightCycle - + ON 200PPFD (00:00) - 1000PPFD (03:30) - 1000PPFD (14:30) - 200PPFD (18:00) OFF incredibly hot and rain. lost some terpene :)) Well, summer is coming, Day 68: - Sanlight DaylightCycle - + ON 200PPFD (00:00) - 600PPFD (00:30) - 800PPFD (03:30) - 800PPFD (14:30) - 600PPFD (17:30) - 200PPFD (18:00) OFF - Added 1L bottle of water It's hot, hot, hot, Zoe would like more water. changed daylight cycle so it match the weather problems. tent is open until my real night comes. 103 flowers (including popcorn) counted, due to an accident about 15 flowers are missing. Day 67: - Sanlight DaylightCycle - + ON 200PPFD (00:00) - 600PPFD (00:30) - 900PPFD (03:30) - 900PPFD (14:30) - 600PPFD (17:30) - 200PPFD (18:00) OFF - watering bottle water 1.75L weather to hot , changed daylight start time and daylight cycle so it match the weather problems. I'm lucky, buds are still growing :))) Day 66 (we are on the road with maximum sanlight ) - analyse some trichome . - make some Zoom Pics and Video stuff . - Sanlight DaylightCycle : - + ON 200PPFD (00:00) - 1000PPFD (00:30) - 1000PPFD (13:30) - 800PPFD (17:30) - 200PPFD (18:00) OFF - DLI will stress alot ... Anyway, it's too hot in my room... I open the tent and now everything is fine with the temperatures and I increase the Sanlight to 100% for the first time. May Zoe love it or leave it :)) We'll see what happens Day 65 : Sanlight DaylightCycle : ON 200PPFD (00:00) - 800PPFD (00:30) - 850PPFD (13:30) - 800PPFD (17:30) - 200PPFD (18:00) OFF It will soon be ready for harvest.

Alright I've updated this postmortem and cure just to give an idea of what I was up to during the dry and cure weeks. This grow was a ton of work and I'm very please with the results. I learned a ton about soil and environment control and really feel like I'm gaining confidence and coming into my own as a cultivator. I've been playing a lot with ice water hash and rosin and have set some neat goals for the future like hunting ice water hash cultivars, going perpetual and expanding the amount of canopy I can work with by building a network of remote-operated satellite flower tents in friends' and family's abodes . I'm not sure I'll go through all this effort of documentation here again, but please follow along on my instagram, stay in touch and chill out with me sometime @Fullmeltalchemist.00 All in all, I was running 1000w of quantum board across three tents and pulled just over 1100 grams, which was a big goal of mine. Thanks for all the advice and love growmies! And thanks growdiaries for the platform. It's been coo.

She seems to be coming along well. Fed her cal mag once this week 2 ml per liter. The other feeding she only received bloom and grow. Top leaves are discolouring but I'm unsure why.

It was a total of 15 day break. During this time, there were two defoliations, 4 washes, one mesh tension. Also one fertilizer change and VooDoo Juice Plus supplement (see photo). Now there will be a translation 12/12 ... Let's see their potential!

Wooow 60 dias y se estan haciendo unos monstruos, lastima que no tardaran en empezar a cogollar i no se podran desarrollar mas... con tan solo 60 dias han crecido como unas campeonas brutal la genetica y muy bueno los productos de terranabis que han ayudado muchisimo en este aspecto, solo con ver las fotos ya disfrutas

little clone lollipops still partying. Just hand watering ever couple days, or throwing one of the drip rings into the pot once in a while. I also am rotating the pot a 1/4 turn when I remember. Will probably move this out from under the shade this week cause I think they've gotten used to the flower lights and will bud soon.

❤️

4.21.25 3rd week of veg tie down method going good. Definitely going to have plenty of space for light. Hoping to get couple more weeks of veg in before she’s flowers! Time will tell very soon! Thanks for checking out grow

Tag 70: Es läuft super mit der Green Gelato, sie ist jede Woche nur um 5cm gewachsen. Der Stetch sollte nun auch fast abgeschlossen sein 😃

Sep 21: fall is here with 12 h of darkness and hopefully she picks up the flowering pace while the weather and sunlight are still okay. Sep 27: this sativa pheno is progressing but it is a bit too slow for this area. If I had forced it with 12 h darkness in mid-July it would have worked, but instead I just phyto-forced with a 730 nm far red light starting about Aug 1. The red light is enough for the indica type plants to finish in time here, but it doesn’t seem to be enough for the sativas. Whatevs, I have more than enough and this will all be going for hash anyway. Sativas can be grown here but they need to be forced by light deprivation in July and not just phyto-forced starting in August. Sep 29: two week forecast is suddenly much better so she’s still got a chance to finish properly. Fingers crossed. It hit 0 C here last night and daytime high of only 8-9C so we’re mostly done for the season.

Day 22 - Covered a lot of stuff of last night on my last comment for week 3. Added a few time lapses of the last week of grow. Took a few top leaves of the girls (4 each) to allow more light to potential bud sites; Basically where 1 fan leaf was covering 2 or more potential flower sites. Don't think I will top any more as getting a nice even canopy as it is, plenty of nodes showing Now have a humidifier in there and strengthening the feeding regimen & adding Sensizym and Fulvic Acid to the mix. Removed the flood stakes too as they were inconsistent...now just have the feed pipes going straight over the roots EC now @ 1.3 (CF13, TDS 650/500ppm, 910/700ppm scale). Will keep an eye on them as not too sure if they're sensitive to feed or the Temp/Humidity issues I was having allowed them to nute burn by closing down stomata. Also gave them a dusting with Neem oil as I cant open the tent for Daddy Long Legs (Crane Flies) or Midges flying in!!!
