So this is the Tear Down week. The timing of it makes it so i will need to the harvest flag in a few days when I can weight and test the plants. I have included the Cleaning, and Cutting and some Root Porn. I will make the harvest post in about 4-5 days, when I can trim these plants. There is a lot of Plant here. I got way more than I was expecting. I don't have a scale that measure this amount of plant, without taking like 10 measurements and then adding them together. So I will just be posting the dry weight. I will post the wet weight as dry weight * 1.65. Autopots: Wow, what a great product. I have been blown away by how well and how easy it was to work with them. They really did solve the watering issues. Excellent product. If you are a beginner, start with Autopots. -= Lessons Learnt =- - Overdrive the air to your Autopots. In my control plant, I used a small rectangle air stone (instead of a standard air dome). This lead to root rot and some other issues, it also put significantly less air into the water. The root rot, give the material for the Brown Algae to grow. Using a huge Air-disc-Air-Stone would be an excellent combo to mix in with the air dome itself. Something like this: https://www.amazon.ca/Pawfly-Diffuser-Suction-Hydroponics-Aquarium/dp/B01MY3AQ33 at the bottom and the air-dome on top of it, will be what I do with my next experiment. - Air stone in the reservoir. I had two instances where algae grew into the res. An air stone would have helped. It would have also helped my control plant get less root rot. Given the amount that the air-domes and air sources got engulfed, having the water have more o2 in it would have only been beneficial. - Don't grow 6 plants in a 4x4. Since my control plant was about 1/8th the size of the others, I think I could have grown 5 in the shape of a 5 (on a 6 sided dice)⚄ This placement would give a much more spaced canopy for airflow and more importantly light. The sides of some of the plants were lighter green and produced larf due to lack of light penetration. - This tent was on 19-5 schedule. This worked out very well for this strain. After every lights on, they were in the praying position, so this strain was able to recover in that 5hrs off. If I had more seeds, I would run these again, and try 20-4. I think this strain could handle it. All for all, I think I'm going to 19-5 as my default timing. This kept up a solid DLI. - Staring at .9EC (really .7 EC cause my water here is .2 EC) Then bumping up at .1 a week, until 1.6EC worked out VERY well. I experimented on this crop all the way up to 1.9EC, which burnt the tips of this plant. I think if I did this strain again, I would do 1.6EC until 3-4 weeks left then crank it to 1.9. It did plump them up when I went to 1.9, however it left them looking rough. Bulk was added though. - Sticking to 6.0PH for all of veg, and 2 weeks into flower worked great. The plant had solid and consistent color and leaf shape . The plant's did get hurt, due to some issues (as noted on the weeks). I switched to 6.5 PH in the last 3-4 weeks and it helped them recover, and plump up noticeably. -VPD. The #1 thing I focused on was VPD. I keep it .9kpa range, as best as humanly possible. It was honestly, HUGELY noticeable compared to my other grows. I know truly understand the value of properly dialed in VPD. This is the one lesson that will stick with me forever. - Super-cropping: On the plants I give the chiropractic treatment too, had much thicker stems as much larger channel internally. I did this treatment to 4 of the 6, and the 4 that had it done has larger buds and recovered from defoliation faster. TLDR; VPD is king. Super-cropping is worth the time. Keeping PH and EC dialed in were all wins. Autopots kick ass.

Day 56f and week 8 and the girls are ripening up. Looking to harvest within the next 4 to 8 days. Just waiting for some more cloudy trichomes to show up. We've reduced our feeding to Canna Boost and Cannazyme only. For the last 4 days or so they will receive plain water. Really stoked how this girl has turned out so far and I can't wait to harvest her. Thank you everyone for likes and comments this far I so appreciate you guys. Growers love ✌️🏻-BLG Video- https://youtu.be/NVoXwpqe9AQ

Moin, Blütewoche 4 ist fast durch und die Temperatur stieg diese Woche auf über 30 % und die relative Luftfeuchtigkeit befindet sich zum Teil leider auch jenseits von gut und böse in der Spitze waren es 75 % und ich würde erinnert warum viele eine Sommerpause machen, solange wollte ich aber nicht auf neue frische Blüte warten. Unerwartet hat sich White Sweet Candy OG nochmal etwas gestreckt und mit Glück sind noch 15 cm bis zur LED. Ich habe daher den Drainmaster um 5 cm nach unten gestellt und konnte ggf. nochmal 5 cm tiefer gehen, sollte ich im Laufe der Zeit Anzeichen von Lichtstress sehen wird das auch gemacht, bisher steckt die WSCOG die Höhe Lichtintensität bei den Mainbuds aber wirklich gut weg, was den Gesamteindruck einer wirklich sehr robusten Sorte weiter bestärkt. Seit Anfang der Woche bilden sich neben den weißen Härchen auch die ersten Trichome auf den Blüten und Sugarleaf, natürlich musste ich auch schon eine erste Riechprob an den Trichomen machen. Bisher konnte ich in diesem noch recht frühen Stadium noch keine süße Note wahrnehmen, dafür einen kiefernartigen Geruch, der in den letzten Tag von einer zitronigen Note begleitet wird, ich denke einen kommenden Wochen wird sich dort noch einiges tuen und die ersten Ansätze sind auch sehr viel versprechend. Die Blätter erstrahlen in einem wirklich sehr schönen frischen Grün, Mängel oder Anzeichen für Stress kann ich keine erkennen und die automatische Bewässerung sorgt zur Zeit 3 mal pro Tag für frische Nährstoffe im Coco Medium, bisher ist dieser Grow ein wirklich sehr entspanntes Anliegen und ich denke das wird sich auch nicht weiter ändern, außer die Temperaturen und die damit verbundene hohe Luftfeuchtigkeit machen wir einen Strich dufh die Rechnung, da würde es mich wirklich interessieren ob diese Sorte resistent gegen Botrytis ist oder eher anfällig. Vielleicht muss ich nochmal aktiv werden und mir einen Luftentfeuchter holen. Hey, Flowering week 4 is almost over, and temperatures climbed above 30°C this week. Unfortunately, relative humidity has also been far from ideal at times, peaking at around 75%. It definitely reminded me why so many growers take a summer break. However, I wasn't willing to wait that long for a fresh flowering run. Unexpectedly, the White Sweet Candy OG stretched a bit more, and with some luck there's still about 15 cm left between the canopy and the LED. Because of that, I lowered the Drainmaster by 5 cm and could potentially gain another 5 cm if needed. Should I notice any signs of light stress over time, I'll definitely make that adjustment. So far, the WSCOG is handling the light intensity at the main buds exceptionally well, which further reinforces my impression that this is a very robust strain. Since the beginning of the week, the flowers and sugar leaves have started producing their first trichomes alongside the white pistils. Naturally, I couldn't resist doing an early smell test on the trichomes. At this still relatively early stage, I haven't noticed any sweet notes yet. Instead, there's a pine-like aroma that has recently been accompanied by a citrusy note over the last few days. I think the coming weeks will bring quite a few changes in that regard, but the first impressions are already very promising. The leaves are showing a beautiful, vibrant green color. I can't see any deficiencies or signs of stress, and the automatic irrigation system is currently supplying fresh nutrients to the coco medium three times a day. So far, this grow has been a very relaxed and enjoyable experience, and I don't expect that to change. The only concern is the high temperatures and the resulting humidity, which could still throw a wrench into the works. I'd be very interested to know whether this strain is resistant to botrytis or tends to be susceptible to it. I may have to take action and get a dehumidifier after all.

Beautiful progress with this girl. Can't really tell from pics, but some of her fan leaves are turning a purple tint, like her sugar leaves. Been feeding max strength compost tea with every watering, and she really enjoys it so far. Also, a little update on the clones I plucked from her a few weeks back. 6 of them successfully rooted, and now I'm hardening them off in the veg tent. 1 is already progressing onto vegetative growth. So her legacy continues :) Update 01/27/22: Her lower leaves are beginning to yellow and i see a nice mauve color spreading onto the fan leaves. I don't believe the leaves yellowing are a result of a deficiency or anything bad. She drinks at a fast rate, prays upwards first thing in the morning, and continues to stack her buds at a solid pace. And shes getting plenty of phosphorous, potassium and a bit of nitrogen as well. Shes getting fed blackstrap molasses with every feeding, which has a lot of calcium and magnesium. So after considering all of that, I think she'll just chug right along. As it's more likely just how this strain is. I remember my first run having a rather light-toned leaf coloration. Anyways, im starting to get a slight whiff of that infamous "purps" smell when I open the tent. It'll be hard to keep my head out of the tent come week 5, because I remember this strain being such a beauty. And I think I'm doing a better job with this run than my first. So I'm super stoked for the weeks to come. Cheers everyone 👍🏾

This strain grows compact yet airy with a nice layer of frost , there was a kush type smell but unlike the last time I grew this strain there was no lemon smell at all, nice and relaxing for day time use ,

Update - Tuesday 22nd June To be honest this week hasn’t gone great. I noticed some fruit flies or fungus gnats. There are only a few and they don’t seem to be attracted to the buds at all. None the less for the moment I have put some cider vinegar, soap and water and put t in as wide a surface area as possible and there are quite a few stuck in there after a day. Iv also ordered some of those sticky traps to put around the edge of the pot. Luckily I’m getting rid of my media, the tent, everything inside the tent and will be using a paint spray gun to spray ozonated water or if it’s really expensive then just hydro strength hydro peroxide will be used to spray all surfaces of the room.

Buenas noches familia, sorpresa, jueves noche por aquí , actualizamos las power plant xL. Es la última semana antes de nuestra cosecha, el tiempo se nos echó encima y las Flores ya están echas, se preparó un lavado de raíces y tijeretazo,para sucesivamente colgarlas.( PRIMERA VEZ que se me echa el tiempo encima con la floración, jurao) Me habría gustado darles algo de estrés hídrico, pero lo veremos con las lemon kush y las northern light xL. -power plant xL es una cepa con predominancia sativa, con una corta floración,es un ejemplar fácil de cultivar, fuerte, y vigoroso. Estos ejemplares se cultivaron en 7L en sustrato light MIX de plagrOn, controlando en todo momento el PH de nuestras plantas, y dándoles de comer una gama advanced nutrients bastante básica. -PROS: facil cultivar, flores llenas de resina , flores compactas, ramas laterales largas. -CONTRAS: hay que tutorar por el peso de la flor, floración demasiado rápida a mi gusto (no te das ni cuenta). *Aquí ya me despido hasta la cosecha familia.

🗓️ Week 8 complete – 4th week of flowering A few days late with the update – been a busy week – but Seriotica is doing just fine 🌱 I managed to bring the drain EC down from 2.4 to 1.8. A couple of leaves showed minor signs of overfeeding, but overall she handled it really well 👍 📏 Current height – Seriotica: 78 cm Stretch is definitely over now – holding steady. And the best part: Frost is coming ❄️✨ Seriotica is starting to develop a promising trichome layer already – looking like she’s gearing up for a strong finish!

Well I'm a bit upset last week I ended up dropping my ph meter in a tank of nutes I was mixing and by the time I got it out the meter was junk. I was planning on flushing the crystal but had to wait another week for the meter. I suppose the good thing to take from this was I found out why I was having issues with my plants. When the new ph meter came in I went to check my run off and my nutes that I had all ready mixed up. It turns out that my meter i had been using this whole grow was off by about -2-2.5 so this whole time I had been feeding the plants at around 3ph smfh. I cant believe they look how they do knowing what went on this whole time. Fastbuds crystal meth is 3days into flush and i will be cutting it down this weekend most likely. Mephisto hubbabubbasmelloscope is smelling like sweet sweet candy and is thick in resin Bighead seeds freeze berry/ blueberry crumble has a dank pungent stank to it and also is frosty but larrfy Big bomb is still growing thick and have bud sites everywhere Now I'm ready for the next batch and ready to get dialed in!

What to say they have taken well to the transplant and both seem to be enjoying the bigger pots and tent ... The black sugar seems to be doing better and the cheese gave me three clones three days ago. I'm super excited about these strains here and the work out in will be returned 10 food cheers family ..

Tak tenhle týden jsem jim přidal víc supermixu a pk13-14. Nevím jestli je to tím ale začni pěkně kynout. Taky už nezbývá moc času ještě tak 14 dní budu hnojit pak týden flashing a kosa. No a jelikož už mám nakoupeno něco z řady advanced nutrients tak jsem začal přidávat i overdrive (hodně lidí mi řekne že zbytečně ale já to tak chci a aspoň vyzkoušet celou řadu) Jo a nemám tam danou síť a zhruba v polovině týdne mi ze dne na den totálně zhutněli palice a kytky začaly doslova padat na sebe jako že ty stolky to opravdu neudržely tak jsem musel improvizovat pomocí drátu na ploty a udělat tam takovou provizorní podpěru
