*english version below* **HydroLab – Blüte Woche 1: Der Stretch entfesselt & der Teppich lebt** Willkommen zurück im HydroLab, dem einzigen Ort, an dem Pflanzen schneller wachsen als meine Stromrechnung. Die 12/12-Umstellung liegt nun offiziell sieben Tage zurück – und die Damen haben das Memo verstanden. Der Stretch? Vollgas. Der angekündigte „Kräuterteppich“? Er ist da. Und er rollt sich gerade selbst aus. 🌿🔥 Systemstatus: Wissenschaftlicher Wahnsinn in Zahlen EC: stabil auf 1.5 Wasser: Vollentsalzt, nur noch 0.05 EC – so sauber, dass es vermutlich als „Destillat Light“ durchgeht CalMag: jetzt Pflicht! Leitungswasser war nett, aber wir gehen jetzt pro pH: von 5.8 hochdriftend bis 6.2, dann korrigiere ich Klima: kalt draußen → warm im Labor dank Luftentfeuchter + 130W IR-Heizung (Nachtschicht-Modus) Operation „Wurzel-Schutzschild“ Die Netpots haben ein Upgrade bekommen: Alufolie-Abdeckung! Nicht hübsch, aber verhindert sicher, dass irgendwo Licht in die Root-Zone kommt. (Hydrolab-Regel Nr. 18: Wenn’s reflektiert, funktioniert’s. 🤓) Pflanzenverhalten: Unkontrollierte vertikale Energie Ich habe in dieser Woche nichts geschnitten und die Mädels einfach machen lassen. Ergebnis: 🔬 Hypothese: „Sie werden etwas wachsen.“ 🔬 Ergebnis: Sie sind komplett durchgedreht. Der Stretch ist massiv, die Tops schießen überall nach oben, die Mitte wird dichter, und die ersten Blütenansätze zeigen sich bereits in voller, flauschiger Pracht. Die Mykos arbeiten im Untergrund weiter wie ein italienischer Straßenbau-Trupp auf Koffein: die Wurzeln sind dick, cremefarben und gesund. Labor-Kommentar Manchmal muss ein Wissenschaftler lernen, loszulassen. Und manchmal heißt das: „Ich lass sie einfach eine Woche wild wachsen und schaue später, was weg muss.“ Genau diese Methode wenden wir hier an. Aktuell sieht alles brutal vital, extrem dicht und herrlich chaotisch aus – genau wie ein Sativa-Scrog aussehen muss, bevor der Dompteur eingreift. Ausblick Nächste Woche geht’s ans Feintuning im Netz, am Lollipop wird nachjustiert und Bud Blood sollte sein Zauberwerk tun, damit sich das Ganze bald in ein Meer aus weißen Härchen verwandelt. Bis dahin: Das HydroLab beobachtet, misst, lacht – und füttert. 🌱⚗️😄 _________________________________________________________ **HydroLab – Bloom Week 1: Stretch Protocol Activated** Welcome back to the HydroLab, where the plants grow faster than my ability to explain what’s going on, and where chaos is considered a valid research method. The flip to 12/12 was seven days ago — and the ladies took that as a personal challenge. The stretch? Immediate and aggressive. The “herbal carpet” I predicted last week? Fully deployed. 🌡️ System Diagnostics EC: holding steady at 1.5 Water: ultra-clean, 0.05 EC from the deionization unit CalMag: now part of the baseline (unlike with tap water) pH: adjusted to 5.8, drifting naturally up to 6.2 before correction Climate: cold nights outside → warm enough inside thanks to a 130W IR heater + dehumidifier tag-team 🛡️ Root Protection Protocol I covered the pot tops with aluminum foil — not pretty, but absolutely effective at blocking any stray light from entering the root zone. HydroLab Law #7: If it looks improvised but works perfectly, it’s not a bug — it’s a feature. 🌱 **Plant Behavior Report: Unrestricted Vertical Ambition** This week I didn’t cut anything… And the plants responded with: “Okay, we’ll take over now.” The stretch is in full swing, tops are pushing upward everywhere, and the first flower sites are forming beautifully. The canopy is dense, lively, and wild — exactly what a sativa-leaning scrog looks like right before it becomes a jungle. Roots? A fluffy, creamy, active masterpiece. The mycorrhiza is clearly having the time of its life. 🔬 Researcher’s Note Sometimes science requires intervention. Other times… science requires stepping back, folding your arms, and whispering: “Let’s see what happens if I just don’t touch anything this week.” This was one of those weeks. And honestly? The system handled it better than expected. 🔭 Next Week’s Outlook canopy refinement begins lollipopping adjustments Bud Blood should fully kick in floral development expected to accelerate Until then: The HydroLab observes. The HydroLab measures. The HydroLab feeds. And the HydroLab cackles quietly in the corner. 🌿⚗️😄

Bubba Kush Pre 98 is an easy plant to grow. She gave me no hassles or worries even in a warmer climate than she would like. The leaves are a dark green color naturally. Yield wasnt much, I am waiting for buds to dry and cure to provide the dried weight. I did not feed them any nutrients. The one got so dense that I had to move it indoors to avoid bud rot - im almost convinced it was an autoflower and they made a mistake at the seedbank because it was short and flowered out of nowhere. Outdoor buds were sundried - to lower THC for novice and paranoid smokers, I tried the smoke and it was a very pleasant high - removed anxiety, stress, overthinking, and relaxed my body. Perfect.

Easy grow, nice pretty plant, kept it small and performed lst early on, nice dense hard buds, wish I had space to run them all. I will be running the rest of my seeds very soon.

Harvested #2, 40/60 amber to cloudy trichome ratio, couldn't weigh wet 25/10/24 - Harvested #1, 50/50 amber to cloudy trichome ratio Haven't weighed #2 final dry weight yet, still in the process of trimming #2 final dry weight: 273.9g, just under 10 ounces. 02/11/24 - #1 is dry, haven't had time to trim, in jars until I have time. Estimate #1 will yield more then #2 #1 final dry weight: 351.8g, 12.5 ounces 625.7g total off both plants #2 has better bag appeal, smell is very floral and piney. #1 is not as nice looking in appearance but takes the win for smell, has a strong skunk smell, get a whiff of cat piss whenever the jars are opened as well. Was very prevalent in the final week of flower, kept thinking the cats had got into the room and peed somewhere. Overall happy with the results.

Getting taller, getting bushier, very thirsty girls! Feeding nutrients every 2-3 days depending on moisture retention in the soil, follwed by flushing with ph balanced h2o every 2-3 days

The way flowers are pumping is beautiful 🤩 starting to make some sirius progre

She drinks like no other auto I've grown before she loves the nutrients but I'm keeping the PPMs below 650 for now. I'll be testing her a 750 this week and if she continues showing no signs of deficiencies I'm leaning on trying the product from Green Planet called Dense which is 0-0-62!!! This week all plants but the Sweet Tooth will be getting Massive nutrients from Green Planet which does wonders for getting those fat colas.

Week 5

Second week of Veg and they are growing fast , very healthy, no deficiencies , perfect color green.

Eccoci qui... Tutto va per il meglio, questa settimana si inizia a vedere la resina e ora si inizieranno a formare le cime, per questo aggiungo Sugar Shot di @xpertnutrients vedremo l'evoluzione settimana prossima. Odore intenso di Big Bubble, strato di resina pazzesco e numero di cime formate più alto di tutto il ciclo, sono molto curioso di questa varietà.... STRAORDINARIA Grazie a tutti per il supporto🔥🌲❤️

BAD APPLE WEEK 5 | DIRTY BIRD GENETICS

Main cola is getting dense and bigger, but all the other little ones are still pretty small, it will be interesting to see how this one finishes. Gave it a little more worm castings and 2-8-4 this week and will be the last feed it gets, from now on it just gets water ph between 6.2 and 6.8. Will continue some minor defoliation and will try to LST it just for airflow from now until harvest in a couple more weeks.

Today is the start of week 3. Recap on week 2: everything went pretty smoothly. Both firls for nutrients this week and took well to them. As well as starting to feed, they also both entered their forever homes, and both seem very happy and healthy. P2 is having some discoloration on her first true leaves, but all of the new growth looks good, so I'm going to write it off as she wasn't happy about no nutes for so long. All-in-all I think this week went well. P1 is showing promising signs of making a full recovery from her near drowning as a seedling, so that's great!

Ahora si estamos actualizados growers!! ultima semana de crecimiento, numero 4 con 27 días. Decidí cambiar a 7L en lugar de 3,5L buscando que ensanchen un poco mas y me den un par de esquejer cada una para la seleccion. 4ª Semana 24-10-2018 Riego foliar de fitofotificante ecológico Superkukulus 2mlxL Riego con 1mlxL de Voodoo, 1mlxL de Sensi Grow A+B 1mlxL de Rhino Skin y 1mlxL de Tarántula. (En este riego habría quitado el Grow ya que para entrar en trasplante solo habría bastado con estimular con microorganismos y enraizante) 26-10-2018 Riego con 2mlxL de Voodoo y 2mlx10L de Root Stimulator de BAC Observaciones: A principios de semana se separaron para no hacerse competencia entre ellas por espacio, a los varios dias coloque las nuevas luminarias LEC 315w con 3100k a baja potencia, con el balastro regulable los coloco a 190w. Al siguiente dia el 26 realce el trasplante completo, descartando una Dinamed que se quedo pequeña, otra que tenia mancas y deformaciones y una Cándida CD-1 CBD también con deformaciones y espigamientos. Tome la segunda tanda de apuntes planta por planta, donde recojo información como, tamaño, carencias o excesos, ramificación, raíces.. todo lo que pueda reunir de cada planta. trasplantamos y vamos subiendo a potencia de la luminaria hasta el dia 1 de floracion que comenzaran a 315w de potencia. Se riegan a PH 6 con estimulador de raíces y voodoo. Comienzan a bajar las temperaturas por aquí y a la noche están a unos 18 grados, coloco un termostato para que funcione el extractor a media potencia mientras la temperatura no supere los 26 grados, aunque no supera mas de 24 sin tener puesta intracción. De nuevo gracias a los growers y a los creadores de esta plataforma que es un autentico regalo! me ayuda a organizarme y aprendo muchísimo de lo que veo en la comunidad. ¡¡¡Que no pare la maquina!!! ---- Now if we are updated growers !! last week of growth, number 4 with 27 days. I decided to change to 7L instead of 3.5L looking for them to widen a little more and give me a couple of sketches each for the selection. 4th Week 10-24-2018 Foliar watering of organic phytofetifier Superkukulus 2mlxL Irrigation with 1mlxL of Voodoo, 1mlxL of Sensi Grow A + B 1mlxL of Rhino Skin and 1mlxL of Tarantula. (In this irrigation I would have removed the Grow since to enter into a transplant it would have been enough to stimulate with microorganisms and rooting) 10-26-2018 Irrigation with 2mlxL of Voodoo and 2mlx10L of Root Stimulator of BAC Observations: At the beginning of the week they separated so as not to compete with each other for space, after several days I placed the new LEC 315w luminaires with 3100k at low power, with the adjustable ballast I set them to 190w. The next day the 26th full transplant, discarding a Dinamed that remained small, another that had mancs and deformations and a Candida CD-1 CBD also with deformations and stigmas. Take the second batch of notes plant by plant, where I collect information such as size, deficiencies or excesses, ramification, roots .. everything you can gather from each plant. we transplanted and we are going up to power of the luminaria until the day 1 of florescion that they began to 315w of power. They are watered to PH 6 with root stimulator and voodoo. Begin to lower temperatures here and at night are about 18 degrees, I set a thermostat to operate the extractor at half power while the temperature does not exceed 26 degrees, but does not exceed more than 24 without having put intracción. Thanks again to the growers and the creators of this platform, which is a real gift! It helps me to organize myself and I learn a lot from what I see in the community. Do not stop the machine!

Start of week 7. I think I will just feed water this week. I have lots of nutes still in the soil and leaves. They wont get much water this week maybe 1 or 2 flushes. Next week I wanted to experiment with light deprivation, as well as crank my A/C as high as possible. May even split one of the stems to see if it makes a difference. 12/12/18 Everything looking good. No problems, the ladies as super frosty and the smell is intense. Impatience is starting to kick it. So tempted to take a tester bud. But that's a waste.

The week has been better than expected,,in the way of The Pinapple Express Auto bean from 420 Fastbuds popping and dropping her helmet in just 3 days,which was a great way to start,,! At the same time,,I’ve managed to hit the temperature and humidity levels that i like to grow in,,🌱🙏

👌

Welcome to week 3 of my grow diary. Since the plant has grown really well, I decided to top it. I made the cut above node 3. I usually do it above node 2, but I wanted to try something new this time and gain some new experience. Maybe it will work better this way than usual. In addition, I will now just let the plant grow without LST. If it is really necessary, I may decide to do it. At the end of the week, it had reached a height of 14 cm. There was no growth stoppage at all after topping. The Sour Jealousy seems really robust. FastBuds always delivers great quality. So far, I've only had one plant that remained a dwarf due to topping. So big shoutout to the breeder! See you next week

Der Sour Jealousy von FastBuds geht es ganz gut 👍. In Hydroponic dauert es am Anfang immer ein wenig länger bis die Pflanze richtig durchstartet.. Ich denke mal in 2 Wochen fängt es dann richtig an. DLI liegt bei 16.92 ( 20 h Licht bei 235 PPFD). Heute wechsle ich das 1. Mal Wasser und gebe additiv Silicate von Terra Aquatica hinzu. Die ersten Tage hatte ich Schwankungen im PH Wert,ich denke weil der EC Wert so niedrig ist und weil die Blähton Kugeln auch erstmal den angestrebten Ph Wert annehmen müssen. Die Pflanze bekommt hier und da gelegentlich Streicheleinheiten von dem Mini Ventilator damit sie kräftiger wird
