This week I noticed the buds got more bigger but also the calcium deficiency has gotten worse and so to battle that I added gypsum to the medium and gave them two waterings with banana peels 🍌in the water ( I read banana peels give off Potassium, Phosphorus, Calcium, and magnesium) hopefully they bounce back and my yield isn’t affected too bad.

They started growing strong this week!

1/11/2024 Vegetation Week 1 Day 1- I have a root almost in the water.. Yay!! Top feeding is almost done. she is looking a little sad as I work the transition Top feeding but once the roots are fully in the water she will start to take off. Ensured my PPFD is set between 250-300 it is set to: 258 1/12/2024 Vegetation Week 1 Day 2- I have a root in the water.... NO TOP FEED TODAY SIR!!! now that a root is touching the water and she looks stable, I am not going to topfeed, I will see how she looks tomorrow and as long as everything looks good I am going to go ahead and do a change and week 1 fill on Nutes.. I know it is a couple of days in but the same Nutes go through Week 2 and get changed at Week 3 So I should be good to go.. I will just ensure I fill to root touching the water when I change tomorrow. 1/13/2024 Vegetation Week 1 Day 3- Water Change Day!! I added 36 Gallons of Water to the system: Silica= .5mil/gal= 18mil CalMag= .75mil/gal = 27mil FloraMicro=3.0mil/gal = 108mil FloraGro=2.0mil/gal = 72mil FloraBloom= 2.0mil/gal = 72mil PH DOWN= 30mil Very important thing with this system is to now wait the 24 hours for the system to adjust.. Do not make any further adjustments to your PH up or Down for 24 hours to allow time for the system to balance. 1/14/2024 Vegetation Week 1 Day 4- Today I just adjusted the PH to ensure that it was right at 6.0 1/15/2024 Vegetation Week 1 Day 5- Today I Cleaned up the lower damaged leaves from the transition from top feeding to roots in the water. She looks good today. 1/16/2024 Vegetation Week 1 Day 6- Today I just took a picture of the beautiful lady for Log. Other than that just normal day to day operations, check the pH, check the Humidifiers and fill as necessary, check level of water in the Res. Everything looks great. onto Tomorrow!! 1/17/2024 Vegetation Week 1 Day 7- Today I filled the humidifers, checked the PH and just let her grow.. Grow baby Grow.....

I've been busy so these plants are absolutely bursting from their way too small containers. Some yellowing occurred and it's getting a lot better now after feeding more. They just need to get into bigger soil ASAP haha.

SHERBERT QUEEN AUTO / RQS WEEK #7 OVERALL WEEK #2 FLOWER TThis week no issues to report she's starting to get some shape to her buds and she's also grown some this week she's looking good! Stay Growing!! Thank you for stopping by and taking a look it's much appreciated!! Thank you ROYAL QUEEN SEEDS!! SHERBERT QUEEN AUTO / RQS

Horia my vršky

📆 Semana 10 — Cosecha La Mental Rainbow ha llegado a su punto ideal. Los cogollos presentan su máxima densidad, la resina brilla como un barniz natural y los pistilos ya muestran el tono final que confirma la maduración. El aroma dulce-terroso se vuelve profundo y nítido, señal clara de que la planta ha terminado de expresar todo su potencial. 🌿 Cosechada: ciclo completado con precisión, justo en su mejor momento. ¡Seguimos creciendo fuerte 💪!

Week 1 Flower 09/04 Everything is running smoothly Introduced NPK Phosphorus - Potassium Scrog net dropped - Flowering evenly. Veg nutes stopped. *Mimosa (1&2) end of week recap -09/09 Both plants are in early flower and proceeding accordingly. Nute feeds remain the same. Plants have grown in height approximately 5inches. Moderate defoliation on the bottom half of both the plants Will LST to trellis next coming week.

Plantas con flores realmente muy llamativas, una de ella con ese color purpura oscuro y otra con tonos purpuras que la hacen resaltar por su brillante capa de tricomas. la planta es bastante vigorosa, hay que tener muy en cuenta la altura siempre, es una planta que echa unos estirones espectaculares, se debe turorar por completo para lograr un buen rendimiento .

Both plants have almost stopped growing in heigth now and are in full flowering mode now. Barbarian (=AK-47 x Barbara Bud) Plant #1 is 15 cm shorter than plant #2, but a little bushier. Both have grown very well and are strong and healthy. They get more and more flower clusters now and start to fill up all branches. Trichomes start to appear all over...the plants start to get sticky and develop a weak sweet aroma now. Its time to take off the biggest fan leaves now for defoliation, I took a round of pics before and after.

Plant has been getting straight pH balanced water this last week and minimal nutes. It is showing some slight nute burn so I let off a bit and raised the light canopy about 6”. I discovered that what I thought was a calcium or potassium deficiency was actually a rookie grower error by me. I have an RO system that I use to water all my strains in the grow room including this one, but when adding nutes to the water, it takes too long so I had been filling them up with well water. When I had originally tested the well water, I must had used a faulty testing agent as after testing it this last week, I was showing a pH of 7.5 vs. my RO of 6.2. Thus, every time I was adding nutes (multiple times a week) I was significantly fluctuating the pH between regular feedings and nutrient additions. To make matters worse, when I originally thought it was nute burn, I flushed each plant with well water and likely caused additional stress. Anyway, I have since learned that the well water needs to be treated, I only utilize RO water the last few days and plan to do so over this next week. Also, I have turned off the CO2 system as I was starting to see signs of heat stress on a couple of the strains (Plant #1). The literature I have reviewed suggested that these strains might be able to handle heat closer to 90F but it was also causing issues with high humidity so when I added a dehumidifier, it pushed the day temp to between 90-92F and the overnight temps were not getting low enough (maybe 85F or so). Maybe I could leave out the dehumidifier, but I was getting rH of 70% and didn’t want to risk any bud rot or mildew growth. So for now, I have turned off the CO2 and am getting high temps of 81F with 60% humidity and overnight temps of 74F and 50% humidity. Plant #1 had some heat related curling of leaves as well as some of the lower leaves showing impact of the pH fluctuations. My hope is we will be steady until harvest. Plant #2 has shown the least signs of stress and is fattening up its buds very nicely. Late in the week, some of the leaves started turning brown from the pH issue but my hope is that with RO water only, we will be on the right track. Over the next few weeks I will start monitoring the trichomes for a nice milky color for harvesting.

week intel: its time to harvest some of plants the ones that is mature enough. indica dominant plants will done first always so we should harvest them first because my base nutrients and one of boosters was salt based, i'll do flushing this week to get some relieve to plants in the last days stresses : flushing Drought stress via watering only one time with flushing this week feeding: day 1 : i flushed them with Advanced Nutrients Flawless finish and adjusted ph day 3 : no more feeding from now on day 5 : no more feeding from now on guide of the week : i harvest in 2 parts : first i harvest top of the branches and will let the lower buds to ripe another week then ill harvest the second wave. indica dominant plants will get done 1 or 2 weeks sooner than sativa dominant plants that will often takes more than 8 weeks so be aware to harvest them sooner. my dry and cure style is this: 3 days of hanging upside down to get water activity lower to around 0.6 in 50% humidity and 26 C temp (i know its a little high but we are in a hot summer right now and i cant get it lower even with air conditioner) and then after 3 days of drying i remove leaves and stalks, trim buds and move them to jar for the rest of their life :D . and in the first 4 days of curing i open the jar door and let hem get some fresh air in the jar for about 5 minutes and close the jar door again, after 4 days of curing like that buds are smokable but they will get better as they getting cured about 1 month. im happy as hell with this harvest :D.

Everything looks great. Busy week. Check back next week for individual photos. The buds will be starting to get fat at that point

This was a beautiful week. Massive THC production my trichromes are covering the white widow plant in crystals. Its an icy plant with its sunscreen on. Looking absolutely gorgeous. I finished defoliation. Removed most all of the fan leaves so the plants can focus on bud production and amp up those clusters. The blueberry plant is starting to fruit up as well. It will end up going an extra week so its production is right on point. The white widow plant is just some crazy good genetics. Of my 7 new nursery plants the two white widows that I have are head and shoulders above the rest of the plants. I am excited to see what the 12/12 from seed does for them with our new super soil setup. The plants have received their full doses of flower food and flower finisher. They are going to ride out the week on just water because they started to burn with the influx of the flower finisher. It seems to absorb more potently than the regular flower food does. I will does the plants some of the flower finisher food about halfway through the next week so as not to burn the plants. After that we will flush the soil with just water for the remainder of the grow so as not to have any extra nutrients flooding the plant before harvest.

I’m getting so jazzed about this Bruce Banner Auto, upside down grow. Week 8 and she’s getting thicker everyday. I wasn’t sure if she would really amount to a nice grow but it has surpassed my expectations and is turning into a beautiful plant, no real issues to speak of, I do put her under cover every night and pay extra attention to this one but over all what a great experiment #peace ✌️🌱✌️

Just waiting and watching trichomes & pistils. As of today all the trichomes are milky, but not all of the pistils have changed colour. A lot of them are still white. So on she goes!!! 😎

El cultivo parte de 16 semillas regulares, pasadas 2 semanas hacemos el primer descarte por anomalía en el crecimiento, en la tercera semana de cultivo se muestran 4 machos y 11 hembras, descartamos 2 machos y separamos otros 2 para la posterior polinización de las 4 hembras seleccionadas para dar luz a la siguiente generación de esta cepa!! Olores pungentes a kush a limón, bayas y uvas verdes La polinización se realizó en ramas bajas de las hembras seleccionadas

Solid growth. Two smallest plants live in an airpot. They have a much faster growth and were flowering before the ones in normal pots. They need more food and their leaves are more crispy, like lettuce. The normally potted plants are taller and greener but significant slower. This is what I learn. Airpots give faster blooming but stay smaller because vegetationtime is shorter.
