Week 6 At the beginning of the week I simply finger pressed the new node growth to begin separation and branch direction. 3 days after the last topping, I set up the tomato rings and attempted to tie down train the branches. In retrospect I should have given another day of growth before trying to tie to the new nodes. One plant made the LST training without issues(green tomato ring), however I snapped 2 center colas on the second plant(orange tomato ring). From experience I know that these will not produce tall colas since it happened so late in Veg, so I decided to completely remove them and will monitor for any new growth on those nodes to remove it. So now Im growing an 8set Mainline And a 6/4 set Manifold: Mainline : is a planned topping and defoliation of every cola that makes all topped splits have roughly the same distance to the roots for water ways by removing all other growth along at the same point on any cola. Ideally this helps generate mostly equal buds along the whole cola after each topped split and then the whole plant without having to use scrog nets and just local support ties instead. In a Mainline you remove any other growth that would otherwise need those water ways to grow as well, so Manifold: is the same thing as Mainline but in Manifold you leave a few branches to grow from a lower start point on any cola and then remove everything else. Ideally this gives mostly the same benefit as Mainline but if planned correctly allows you to be finished topping in just 2 separate topping days rather than 3 separate topping days. (I am using it here to correct this late veg mistake in my breaks) The tie downs are positioning 6 of the colas to grow out flat until it can reach the outer bend of the tomato rings where I will allow them to stretch straight up in bloom. 2 cof the colas will have the lowest node of braches growing up in the middle for a total of 4 branches. However in the 8 cola plant I am also training 6 to the outer ring and 2 colas to grow up in the center of the ring. Feed this week was again an auto pot reservoir feed at 400ppm total before add-ins. I used 360ppm Veg concentrate mix (recipe week 2) and 40ppm Bloom concentrate mix (recipe above). However, I also added 1ml/gal of CaliMagic (General Hydroponics 1-0-0) to all feeds and ph balance this week was for 6.3. Next week will consist of more LST training with a simple move of the wires as needed. Feed will increase in total ppm and bloom mix and I plan to reduce ph to the 5.8 range slowly, so about 6.1 this week and 5.9 next before flip on week 9.

Wächst super und hat einen sehr schöne Farbe schön grün und gesund mach dem traning

End of week 5 - Day 35 On day 33 I switched the lights off for 24 hours and back on to 12/12 yesterday so they are now officially on a flowering light schedule. This week has seen another massive boost in growth. Conditions pretty much unchanged from last week however I have changed the layout in the tent. As this is my first grow it's been trail and error up to now but I think I've got it pretty much bang on. Moved the humidifier above the smart pots so they aren't getting any moisture other than the feed. Also moved all the plants further down the tent and away from the heater. I've added a video this week so you guys can get a proper look at the set up and advise me accordingly. Includes the air moving fan and natural Co2 generator. Lights have been moved around the filter so that they can be kept at 18" from the tops of the plans. I have had to move them 3 times already this week as some dominant colas are shooting up. Final training of tallest colas happened tonight. I topped the tallest 2 on each plant hoping that they now wont stretch too high during the first 3 weeks of flower. Head space is a bit limited in my tent. I think as of next week they may benefit from some defoliation lower down but I'm hesitant to do too much at this stage while they transition from veg to flower. Nutes wise I've now introduced BioGreen X-Bloom as per my feed chart. They seem to like a slightly stronger feed than the chart suggests at around 0.1 - 0.2 higher. Run off EC and PH has been within 0.3 again so I'm taking this as a nice equilibrium. I have been feeding on a wet and dry schedule of every 3 days while in veg. I'm led to believe that at this point every other day would now be needed and after 3 weeks switch to every day feed? As always your guys feedback would be great as each part of the grow is completely new to me. Hoping I've got things right up to now and confident these girls will produce some really nice buds! See you next week!

Another week in the books for these ladies. Temps and humidity dropped a bit last week. Hopefully we'll we see pre-flowering signs over the next 2 weeks. Thanks for stopping by growfessors 👽🌳💚

🌿 Mellow Jelly - Frost Factory & Full Recovery!? ❄️❤️‍? Let's go! Welcome to Week 16 for the Mellow Jelly. Hopefully, she is fully recovering from the thrips madness we had to deal with. Judging by how she is stacking up this week, I'd say she shook it off and is pushing hard to the finish line! 📈 The Details / Progress Report: Bouncing Back: She took the defoliation and pest cleanup perfectly. While you can still spot a few old battle scars on the older fan leaves, the upper canopy is completely focused on flower production. The airflow is dialed in, and she is putting all her energy into those buds. Extreme Frost: Just look at the macro shots! 🤯 The resin production is absolutely out of this world right now. The sugar leaves and calyxes are completely caked in a thick, sticky layer of white trichomes. Swelling Up: The colas are getting incredibly dense and chunky. We are starting to see a lot of those pistils curl inward and turn a beautiful fiery orange, but she is still pushing some fresh white hairs, which means she is still packing on weight! 🔥 Canopy Structure: Opening her up last week really paid off. The light is penetrating down to all those mid-canopy bud sites perfectly, ensuring we get solid development from top to bottom. 💧 Next Steps: We beat the bugs hopefully, so now we are officially in the coasting phase! The main goal right now is to keep the environment perfectly stable and start keeping a really close eye on those trichomes. We are getting into the final stages, so it is all about letting her swell up even more and waiting for that perfect harvest window. She is an absolute beast! Let's keep it growing! 🌱💨

She still stretching and making new bud sites. Almost as high as the other auto that were started a week weeks sooner. Lots of rain this week only fed with compost tea once after topping off with the spent tea grinds. Added some kelp and cal mag to make the tea 700ppm.

Just water this week, as it will be the last. She smells super strong. I pulled off a leaf and it smelled super skunky. I’ll be splitting the stem tomorrow, and harvesting by Wednesday.

I have been flashing for two weeks now I thought it was ready last week but this planet is slow to harvest I think a week or two it will be ready Left in two days of darkness to encourage finish. Worked on half of the plant

The plant is monster even though I topper at the 6th node she is 51in tall and smell nice fantastic but requires support the plant grows very tall even before having lots of weight in the buds it requires support . today I brought them outside the tent to give them a good water down in order to drain out any excessive buildup in the soil. I will continue to update but thank you for reading have a happy grow.

Banana Kush Auto has been growing great under the Medic Grow Mini Sun-2 in the Athena blended line nutrition. I lollipopped the plant, then defoliation was done since she was super bushy. I proceeded to lst the stretching branches outwards. Her solution was also topped off with a good dose of nutrition. She is doing great at the moment.

Hi liebe Community and Welcome Back! 💚🌱 Nach der sechsten Blütewoche entwickelt sich die Aficianado Pflanze weiterhin sehr schön! Sie ist in diesem Run definitiv die Beautyqueen. Die Struktur, die Buddichte, Interniodenabstände alles perfekt! ? Es scheint auch als würde sie eine Top Blütenperformance hinlegen. Die Trichome sprießen und dass Icing zieht sich wunderbar über die Sugarleafes. Das süßlich- fruchtige Aroma entwickelt sich immer mehr, es hat nun auch etwas beerige Aromen. Ab jetzt bekommt die Pflanze nur noch Wasser bis zur vollen Reife. Aufgrund der ernten der anderen Pflanzen, kann ich das System nun besser auf die Pflanze anpassen. Die Umgebungsgegebenheiten sind aktuell gut für die Endblüte! ————— 🌞 Temp: 27 🌚 Temp: 18°C bis 19°C 💨 RH: 49% VPD: 1,42 kPa 🏜️ 💡ppfd: 830 mpm ————— Viele Grüße 👋

She is growing amazing and very fast. I did some training on the lower branches to get them some light and did some defoliation on unneeded leaves. I’m watering every other day now still only adding nutrients every third watering. I’m ready to see some of these buds start stacking!!!

No big changes this week, some pistils have started to mature, I believe that starting today she will get fat! 😀 The smell started to get stronger this week too, the aroma resembles coffee with pine! 😋

Eccoci qui... Siamo quasi alla fine del cultivo, odore, resina e colore ci sono. Attendiamo solo la maturazione delle cime che richiederà 1/2 settimane.... NON VEDO L'ORAAAA... Seguiranno aggiornamenti, grazie a tutti per il supporto🔥🌲❤️

Day 52 - before pic/vid pulled em both out scrubbed tanks..... moved em into a different tent, with a different light.... did up completely different solutions, and currently still building it all.... Day 53 - still buildin... vids of new home... Nutrifield, Rock Nitro, 1200-1500 ppm and 6.5 PH.... see if we can give em a good boost.... left em in pure water before puttin em in new solution.... Day 57 - pics vid.... been adjusting ph... down to 5.8.... they are just growin along nicely in the new home... got a fan for the tent... looks good tho... solution temp is abit high, fan will fix that..... changed just the tanks to 5lt Cereal containers, they are alot taller, more room below the container... fits perfect.... Day 59 - pics vids, , 6.2ph, 1300ppm ... water temps been getting abit high, fans should arrive next week.... 👍😎 120W Aluminum+PC Plug 2835SMD 7995-9594LM 1131Pcs Red+234Pcs Blue * Blue(wavelength: 430nm, 554nm * Red(wavelength: 630nm 660nm)

Looking good so far...liking the dry amendment/ organic method. I havent tried any of the same strains with this method vs regular nutes feeding so i cant say for sure but i think i may have given a little of the yield away and cant say if the quality and taste went up to offset it just yet. Still plan to stick with it atleast until fall to get a good sample size. Will b going into week 6 on Thursday so we in the home stretch.😁😁😁.... Got blumats coming to free up time and water this style a little better. And a cam for better pics and so i dont have to b in the room as much. Should have more time to betted document everything. Damn i cant wait til outdoor season.

2nd week of flower almost complete, she’s starting to stretch😅 she’s got all the room in the world above her so she can grow to the sky for all I care, beautiful colours amongst the leaves, the reds, pinks and purples look 💥.. No defoliation, LST or any sort of training this week, Plants being left to just grow naturally from now till harvest. Untill next time👊🏻

Endlich erkennt Mann die Struktur der Blütenbildung richtig. 🌱 Es zeigt sich, das die BCH#1 vom Wuchs her eher in die Blue Dream Richtung bewegt. Ihr Aroma ist bis jetzt eher tiefer und erdiger. Bei der BCH#2 schlägt eher der Ice Cream Cake Pheno durch, mit etwas mehr frosting und einer dichteren und kompakteren Blütenstruktur. Auch wenn die Form wunderschön ist, geht die BCH#1 eher in die angestrebte Richtung und überzeugt durch ihre Flächendeckenderen Masse. Gerade geht die Luftfeuchtigkeit wieder Runter, was definitiv besser in der Blütenphase ist. Es wurden nochmals die unteren großen Sonnensegel entfernt um den unteren trieben etwas mehr Licht zukommen zu lassen. ————— 🌞 Temp: 26,8 °C 🌚 Temp: 20 °C 💨 RH: 48 % ————— Happy Growing! 💚🌱😉
