FERMAKOR BARREL MIX – BASE IN USE (Testing on the Fantasy Feast girl we pulled out of another diary https://growdiaries.com/diaries/274722-grow-journal-by-yan402 ) (FERMAKOR BASE SYSTEM KOH VERSION diary https://growdiaries.com/diaries/278391-grow-journal-by-yan402) (Urea & Micros on the way β€” first week running without them) πŸΆπŸ’§πŸΆπŸ’§πŸΆπŸ’§πŸΆπŸ’§πŸΆ πŸ’§ 30 L Barrel – Current Working Mix πŸΆπŸ’§πŸΆπŸ’§πŸΆπŸ’§πŸΆπŸ’§πŸΆ Step 1 – Calcium Nitrate (Part A) 7 L warm water (~35–40 Β°C) β†’ added 45 g Calcinit, stirred until fully clear. That’s the calcium + nitrogen backbone for the feed. Step 2 – FERMAKOR PK Base (Part B) 15 L water in the main barrel β†’ added 30 ml FERMAKOR PK Concentrate, mixed well. This forms the main P + K part of the formula. Step 3 – Combine Solutions Slowly poured the Calcinit mix into the barrel while stirring β€” no reaction, still crystal clear. That confirms the mix is stable and precipitation-free. 🌿 Step 4 – FPJ / FFJ Batch Added 30 ml homemade FPJ (fish + veg batch) β‰ˆ 1 ml/L. Color shifted to a light-amber tone β€” looks alive and active. πŸ‹ Step 5 – Citric Acid Balance Added 1 tsp citric acid after everything was blended to fine-tune pH and help chelate micros later on. πŸ“¦ Step 6 – Top Up & Check Filled to the 30 L mark with plain water β†’ pH tested with drops, showing yellow-green β€” roughly 5.8 – 6.0 range. Nice clean look, stable smell, no residue. πŸ’§ Current Base Ingredients (Active Mix) Warm Water β‰ˆ 22 L total Calcinit 45 g β†’ N + Ca foundation FERMAKOR PK Base 30 ml β†’ P + K support Citric Acid 1 tsp β†’ Chelation + pH balance FPJ / Fish Emulsion 30 ml β†’ Organic enzyme booster Result: clean amber mix, mild and balanced.

The original Purple Punch is a cross between Larry OG and Grandaddy Purple, illustrious and stable indica dominant THC-rich heavyweights! The total grow cycle from autoflower seed to harvest is a short 9 weeks. You will be rewarded with a large yield of sticky resinous buds, up to 600g/m2 indoors. If you’re looking to grow a high quality indica auto made with cannabis cup winning genetics you will love Auto Purple OG Punch. THC content is always up-to/around 20%. Auto Purple OG Punch effects are intense, euphoric and relaxed. She also contains around 1% CDB which contributes to the very smooth, chilled smoke. Expect a mouthwatering blend of sweet tasting candy, dark fruit and hints of spice. A real connoisseur cocktail with powerful effects! She normally reaches around 1m tall. But in optimized conditions with LED grow lights you can see occasional monster plants up to 2m tall with XXL yields. Auto Purple OG Punch is easy, potent and heavy yielding indoors. She also delivers well outdoors - such as the balcony or garden. Auto Purple OG Punch is a perfect, powerful strain for a quiet relaxed day. The calming indica body effect is very satisfying and de-stressing

Moin moin ihr lieben! Diese Woche war auch wieder nicht viel los tΓ€gliches biegen und binden hab ich am Sonntag 05.03.23 das letzte mal gemacht (somit eingestellt) und die Damen dΓΌrfen nach oben auf steigen (liegt daran das ich wirklich kein platzt mehr habe um zu weben) aber der stretch ist noch nicht wirklich zurΓΌck gegangen und der Platz nach oben wird bald zur Mangel ware. Naja drΓΌckt mir die Daumen das der stretch bald vorΓΌber geht und das alles hin haut. Habe am 08.03.23 also an Tag 21 nach Umstellung den ersten compost Tee angesetzt der dann Anfang der neuen Woche also Woche 4 nach Umstellung oder um genau zu sein am 09.03.23 vergossen wird ansonsten gibt es nicht viel zu sagen...... Euch allen glitzer nuggetz, zur ernte ich wΓΌnsche! πŸ–– Edit:habe schon die ersten Bilder fΓΌr den Kompost Tee rein gesetzt nΓ€chste Woche dazu mehr

Harvested GP#2 on week 12. Hung it up and dried at 70 degrees and 60% humidity for 10 days. Total weight after dried and trimmed is 8.3 ounces. They are currently curing in two half pound grove bags. This specific gorilla punch was great to grow. There wasn’t much defoliation required and with her sitting at almost 4 feet tall there wasn’t much larf at all. Pictures provided were taken right before she was put in 48 hours of darkness. Video was taken after a week of curing.

The plants have been stretching quite a bit over the course of the last week

The girls had a great week!! Starting to smell already... incredible!! I watered them 3 times with .75 cup and the last watering was 1 cup. They have sprouted up amazingly!! The environment has been stable.. starting this next week I'll start to add a little bit of Fox Farms nutes. Otherwise, just trying to keep the plants happy!! Thanks for stopping by!!

So this week the plants streched like crazy, the NL started to flower too and has actually become taller then the other 2 plants, even though its technically 2 weeks behind. the strange thing is its way more spacious then the packed Diesel.... it'll be fun seeing how they match up in the end! My new fan and dehumidifier solved the RH issue I had and I crushed it down to under 50% now! Things are looking like they're on the right track.....fingers crossed! I wonder if there is anything else I can add , nutrient wise... i know I shouldn't overdo it but I'll play around a bit and see. Got rid of most bigger and medium fan leaves that i felt were blocking the bud-sites from getting light...again, not sure about if I'm going about this the right way, seems counter-intuitive to get rid of so much green but hey ...it helps greatly with lowering humidity and keeps the bottom of the girls nice and ventilated. I actually took off a bit more because it keeps growing shut. Update: got some big bud and overdrive from my local grow shop... I'll give it a try...

This weeks been good, still directing some of the colas so other plants can get light. 2 of my plants are battling for the room in the tent! So 2 other plants are struggling to catch up. Over all tho things are going well! Been watering with nutrients one day and then the other ph balanced water every other day nutrients. Started oxygenate my water. Should of done that a while ago! Happy growing 🌱✨

Giving up is not an option! 24 hours in Bio Tabs Seed Plug + water then transplanted into a mixture of coffee grounds + soil + vermiculite. Lessgo πŸ˜‰ 23.07.20258 Looks like one seed isn't germinating. Probably my own fault, as I didn't notice that the water had leaked out. The shell is open, but nothing else is happening. I'll give it another chance, otherwise unfortunately RIP.
