The second week everything is going alright

Total Days: 70 Flower: 31 Vege growth is stopped or very slow at this point. Might eke out another inch or two. I'll raise the lights as far as they can go soon (only 3-4" for the 650w light on right), but with the higher operating RH%, I've yet to see any pistil burn. The light cycle shift to accomodate the painters definitely stressed 2 plants. One was removed. The second i am retardedly going to keep. I stripped off lower weak buds that had the nanners. Pruned a few weak axilla, too. The nearby plant pistils are lily white, so it should be fine. The pistils will be changing color soon, so that will no longer be a good way to assess the risk going forward. Meh, I know it was caused by light stress, so any seeds not selfed I'll probably keep them. Overall, I'm relatively happy with development. Need to adjust some procedures in next cycle and maybe a few more tweaks in winter 2025-1. Second irrigation went well, but i did find a partially clogged emitter. Probably a plastic bit from hold-punching. With 8 emitters per pot, the overkill makes it irrelvant and the pot wasn't the slowest to finish. A few emitters has some roughly milled inlets. I'll inspect them all over the next couple weeks and replace some as needed. Just realized my new dehum was glowing in my tent the entire time. Luckily the display was facing away but now has a cardboard flap blocking it. If it was fine before, it's even safer now. Photons had to bounce of a wall and travel 5' before it could hit any plant. ----- Early update before end of week upday: So, I've been procrastinating replacing the irrigation setup. It's slowly gotten worse each year (3rd ongoing), but never had the dripper devolve into a dribble. I've been hand-watering 1 or 2 pots the last week or so. Replacing the mini sprinkler heads only fixed 1 of the problem-pots. Think the fittings are leaking on the one that did not improve. All the pvc is gone. All the 1/4" manifolds and tubing are gone. The per plant adjustable nonsense is the worst idea ever as all it does is cause pressure changes and endless tweaking of all the little sprinklers, because changing one impacts all the others, or a speck of dirt might cause a new imbalance that requires adjustments etc - Fucking nightmare of useless repetitive behaviour. Still have the 3/4" ID lead-in, heavy duty, 450psi graden hose with ball shut-off valve and pressure regulator. That is now connected to a 3/4" wye with two 1/2" irrigation tube adapters attached to each end. This forms a loop around the pots with a 1/2" tee per pot that leads to a gate shut-off valve and eight 2-gph pressure compensating emitters - 96 in total. Will do first test run on Sunday. The great thing is that this is all plug and play when I switch to injectors. That'll require some sort of pvc manifold and check valve at the utility tub, but otherwise just connect hose, and it's golden. That's the next step. I'll also re-incorporate the wifi-enabled solenoid valve at that point. Getting rid of the 55-gallon reservoir and pump would be nice. One less thing to maintain (rez) and less things that can break down (pump / powerhead). ------ Sunday Test Flawless first run. Time will tell if they are resistant to clogging, but optimistic at this point. 18psi operational pressure at the irrigation loop. Didn't even need the regulator. The mesh strainer at the pump intake doesn't have the typical, small air-bubble, so the last setup was letting a little air in. The last setup was fatally flawed. Pressure compensating emitters for the win. They didn't even squirt wildly as the air was expelled from empty tubing on first run. Took ~4mins or so. Some pots finished a bit sooner, but that's because they don't drink as much per 24 hours. I can live with that kind of waste. I'll get the timing down to reduce water usage even further. I don't need to wait for every pot to exhibit runoff as that is beyond 10% runoff needs. Might be able to get 4 fertigations before refilling reservoir instead of 3. We'll see. I don't like the minimum ~12-15 gallons sitting over night. It fouls the reservoir faster at low volumes. Anyway, super geeked. They better not clog easily, lol....

Week 12 (17-4 to 23-4) 17-4 Temperature: 23.1 degrees (lights on) 19,1 degrees (lights off) Humidity: 62% (highest) 50% (lowest) 18-4 Temperature: 22.5 degrees (lights on) 17.9 degrees (lights off) Humidity: 61% (highest) 52% (lowest) Opened the reservoir for a couple of minutes. ec 1.4 ph 5.7 19-4 Temperature: 22.5 degrees (lights on) 18.4 degrees (lights off) Humidity: 64% (highest) 54% (lowest) No pictures. 20-4 Temperature: 24.1 degrees (lights on) 19.1 degrees (lights off) Humidity: 65% (highest) 54% (lowest) Light increased from 50% to 60% strength. I also made a new 10L feed, and added it to the reservoir, there was still 2850 ml in the reservoir, so i can calculate how much they get per watering. Opened the reservoir for a couple of minutes. 21-4 Temperature: 24.4 degrees (lights on) 19.3 degrees (lights off) Humidity: 66% (highest) 54% (lowest) No pictures. 22-4 Temperature: 23.7 degrees (lights on) 19.7 degrees (lights off) Humidity: 67% (highest) 42% (lowest) Opened the reservoir for a couple of minutes. 23-4 Temperature: 23.6 degrees (lights on) 17.7 degrees (lights off) Humidity: 64% (highest) 50% (lowest)

5 ' semaine de floraison Pfffff elles ont chaud . Ici nous avons une période de canicule a 37° pars jours depuis une dizaine de jours. Dans leur tente ⛺️ j'arrive à ne pas dépasser 31° mais c'est quand même encore élevé , elles consomment par jours la quantité que je donne pour 3 jours. Pour garder le control des nutriments je vérifie l'E.C de sorti de pots. Apart ça elles ce portent très biens aucun soucis de santé. Les bourgeons commencent a grossir et pour la première fois je vais utiliser du PK 13/14 , je vais voir ce que ça donne. Les réglages culture sont inchangé à la semaine dernière Merci aux Growmies qui me suivent ✌️, bonne semaine de croissance à vous les p'tites ✋️ vertes 🌱🌞🌱

its been ages since my last post. plants went through so much, can't believe they're looking so good now. A fan inside my led light stopped working so light was overheating. quickly ordered a second hand light so i could let this one get repaired. now back with the original light. finally also almost 100% thrips free (made a spray from neem oil and soap couple weeks ago) just defoliated the plants for a second time to make sure all tops are in direct light. only kept 4 plants by the way, I waited with switching the light schedule until they looked healthy enough, so they overgrew the tent altogether. also had extreme humidity when lights were off (up to 80%) so i ordered a dehumidifier which took 2 weeks longer to be delivered. Jup, we been through hell and back, but we're still going, strong that isss. I'm happy guys!!

Buenas chicos, llego la 4ta semana y como sabrán, las nenas estan muy saludables, las colas comienzan a notarse mas y el engorde va optimo, seguimos aplicando co2 a 1400 ppm y se aumento la ec a 3.0, las luces suplementarias de IR, UV Y DEEP RED estan haciendo su trabajo, ya veremos que tal termina todo.

Week 1 (31-1 to 6-2) As for my waterings, i give RO water, with 0.50 grams of Calcium, and 0.2 ml of Atami Rootbastic a liter. Growdiaries wont let me put my nutrients in grams so i'm forced to choose mililiters. 31-1 Watering: 20 ml. 1-2 Watering: 20 ml. 2-2 Watering: 20 ml. 3-2 Watering: 20 ml. Heights: Chemdog#1: 6cm Chemdog#2: 5cm 4-2 Watering: 40 ml. 5-2 Watering: 20 ml. 6-2 Watering: 60 ml. Heights: Chemdog#1: 6.5cm Chemdog#2: 5.5cm

Hey Growers. The cup was misted and a 350ml waterfall off the top of a solo cup to encourage the inoculation of the Gaia green and the first roots to search easily for water. May be bullshit but I find it helps to not drown a seedling. 🤷‍♂️🏻 I’m dialing in my XS2000 trying to keep them as low and stacked as possible bc she’s a tall strain and my tent is a 5ft. I’ll probably have to do my poor man’s light mover technique again but I have no problem with that and the plants loved one in and one out of direct light. Happy Growing 🌱

3/28/23 Keep finding pm in different places and having to spray it down. Added a few more fans just in case and it’s just everywhere. I think I’ll need to do a full tent clean before the next run to get everything clean. I trellised the ackbar twins. They’re huge and putting out so much bud. Took awhile to get it all right and ended up bending a few branches but I have a feeling it’s gonna be great when it’s finally done. Blueberry got topped and is starting to grow exponentially. Hoping it will have some stretch to it when it gets its chance to be the canopy but I don’t think it’s gonna be the plant that ackbar is because it hasn’t gotten proper light. White widow is flowering as well but it’s so minimal because the plant is also getting no light. Going to let it run its course but it’s just not getting what it needs at the bottom of the canopy. I should’ve known better but putting too many plants in one box but I didn’t know they would get this big.

Plants have now been given their second dry feed. This greenhouse bio feed is very good. The plants are loving it. Now scrogged and defoliated and put onto 12 hour schedule. Fingers crossed lets wait for flowers. No issues so far!

Day 53 - Vertical growth is pretty much done.She's filling in nicely.I might have to do a light defoliation this week.She's getting bushy.She's just starting to smell,can't say anything yet.I fed her with plain water last time.Bigger fan leaves started to get yellow.It's an 85 days seed to harvest strain so i don't know if this yellowing is early or not.I plan to give her nutes at least 2 more weeks and then start flushing.
