Feb 19th,
- week 9 of flower sees a lot of subtle changes going on. The smell at the door is one, and it’s becoming a very dense and dark odour. Fruit-like up close.
- Molasses doubled as root boosters get removed and Calimg has only 1 feed left, tonight.
- Mar 1 is the tentative flush, first day of week 11 in flower.
Those will be a long couple of weeks, feeding h20 & sugar only
- noticing the stems of Fan leaves are turning Red/Crimson on L plant. A few are in the R as well.
** question asked about Red Stems **
23rd
- noticing a definite increase in the Trichomes of the Buds, under the UVB (pics tonight).
There are simply more now and it’s kinda obvious when side by side. Lite spill from uvb is falling on the left plant as well, but not from 14”
- feed tonite will include a bit of CaliMag once again moving forward and a lingering taste of Medi-One.
- Trichomes were checked today. As happy as I was to see a few Amber ones. They were very wide-spread with most of the others still 50/50 clear and cloudy.
- Based on todays Trichome check; hoping to flush ~ Mar 7 now. That will be the end of 11 complete weeks of Flower. FYI: Breeders expectation "11-12” weeks. Happy to see it linger a bit, diet, humidity and lighting changes have been incremental throughout. How quickly the next changes happen ie: clear to cloudy etc., I have no idea.
Would love to see ~ 10% Amber, just enough to say it’s Very ripe. ( Not in any way thinking of couch-lock lol )
- literature & product labels on Humic Acid recommend usage throughout Veg & Flower... just Not the last 3 weeks. That rules this batch out... So the next batch(s) get introduced.
- Macro shots tonight of the Buds under the UVB... cannot wait.
** found 1 bud on the R plant, that had quite a bit of Amber showing. Nowhere to be seen in the L plant, but it looks like a high concentration of Cloudy Trichomes on the L regardless.
One more serious search tonight of the R plant and it may just be time for a rinse.
Surprised to see so many Ambers, alone on this one bud.
Pics uploaded ! re: 24th a.m.
Feb24th,
- when the lights came on this evening, I did another thorough check on both plants and there were more Amber trichomes found. Ready or not, both plants were Thoroughly flushed.
- Flush aid used in the process.
- 10 Litres of Water was mixed with Molasses / Rezin as the first liquids poured into the plants, after the Flush...
- when it came right down to it, the sudden appearance and then rapid spreading of the Amber Trichomes made it an easy call, to flush both plants.
Thoughts on the amount of white hairs left... they have a couple weeks to get their shit together... if I can get a couple weeks of flushing-in, that’s a definite bonus.
25th
- humidity spike in the Tent. doors are cracked and a floor fan has been added for extra air flow. Exhaust fan increased...
26th, no liquid to remove from the plants btm Trays, but still showing a high humidity. R.H. coming down slowly, aimed the fans at the fabric pots... doors cracked etc.
* why mess around, hooked up the dehumidifier... R.H. dropping, end of issue

Song of the week : Kranium - Sidung
-------
Day 58 - 03.12 - No more vertical grow but I had to do some more Hst on the tallest to fit in the tent. They are all forming buds but only #2 is green like I want to , the 2 others are pale
-------
Day 60 - I made a short video to show them how they looks when they are outside from the tent. The #3 have a light burn due to the nights under 150w how.
The soil I used was a regular gardening soil from the local store but It's astonishing how heavy this soil is even when It's dry bit when drying the surface becomes hard like rocks ( more than usual )
-------
Day 61 - Due to the rain I did not not them out today , I think it's the second time it happens and I hope it will stop soon because they are clearly too high and whatever the position I choose their is always one leaf touching the HID bulb 😒
I also made a short video to show you the box , I have add an extra 10w white light spot under the canopy and a 7w full spectum bulb under just because I had them at home , it wasn't planned at all.

La planta aguantó bastante bien todos mis fallos, finalmente no fue todo lo productiva que me habría gustado. Pero teniendo en cuenta todo lo que hice mal creo que puedo darme por satisfecho. Personalmente creo que debería haberla dejado crecer una semana más. Ya tengo todo preparado para mi segundo cultivo, en el cual incluiré muchas novedades (cepas, iluminación, nutrientes, etc). Esta vez detallaré mucho más todo el seguimiento del cultivo. Nos vemos pronto! 👽

It’s the 9th week of flower and this run is slowly coming to an end. Mimosa is by far the fastest finisher here. In 8 weeks there is around 30 % amber trichomes in the top buds. A little too much for my taste. I ve reduced the ec in the medium of mimosas to around 1.0 and took the drippers out.
Now they will dry out fully in around 1 or 2 days and I will chop. The rest is more or less similar and will go for about a week more.

Everything was fine. So I started to bath each pot by using a fermentation nutrient by using beneficial bacteria, mycobacteria, some Orgatrex, different mycorrhiza's as 36 hours fermented potions with 2 liters/pot.
Oh I forget to tell You, as You can see in the Video the water drops 💦 on the surfaces of their leafs @ day 23 I used Boom Boom Spray too for preparing the next stage of powerful photosynthesis by raising up my SanLights @ 300 µmol/m² s.
Second video was @ day 26. I raised up a little natural CO2 from 450 ppm to 550 ppm. So they were prepared for more powerful photosynthesis coming up the next days…
Critical Orange Punch and Amnesia Zkittlez showed some typical nutritional sensitivities some phenotypes of Sativa dominated strains can show @ the way to powering up the system. Light tops on the head of the leaf area.
But again:
“Don’t panic, it’s organic.”
Also @ day 26 I started with my preferred technique of LST by mainly just pull down a little, the biggest fan leafs, so the little Life-hungry drives were able to came through and got enough homogeneous ppfd for uniform growth rate too.

Today starting 1week flowering its seem all going in right way parameter its good
Day 32 i think i have bug eat some leaf so i decide to use neem oil , i think i hace little bit nitrogen toxicity so tomorrow i will give only water
Day 34 After i give only water plant its seem starting stay better,the nitrogen toxicity begins to decresce , the leaves beginsto look up and the Grow appears to accelerate
Day 35 today i give only water again and ec output its fixing 1.7 so its not bad , next watering i will give half nute .
Day 37 only water today again , plus i give vita race 5ml/l npk 0-5-8 for potsassium and phosporus by spray on leaves , i hope next one i will try give some nutes for flower stage

This girl has such a unique smell, like nothing I've smelled before. I can't wait to smoke her. She is coming along nicely, fattening up and started to ripen. I can see her colours changing. Not long till harvest now! Thanks for stopping by!

This week has been a breeze. Simply watered at 6.5, kept the humidity at 65%, and increased the power of my light to about 70%. Also made a tea with Roots Organic Terp Tea Grow, and watered it down 1 -4 tea to water. Even with diluting the tea, the plants showed a little burn, so I’m holding off on ferts til next week. All are looking great, besides the one LSD25 that is off to a slow start.

At 95 days from seed, 40 days into bloom, she is still drinking about 2 liters (1/2 gal) per day. I am noticing new pistils being made on buds that otherwise look 3 weeks away from being ready to harvest. They were mostly observed on the highest parts of the highest kolas. This is probably a sign of light stress as it only the parts closest to the light. As I noted, my canopy height isn't very uniform. There is 8-10" of difference between the top of my highest kola and the top of my lowest kola that I wouldn't consider popcorn bud. I raised the light up so it was 16" above the highest kola. This means that its 24" to the lowest. Before I raised up my light, it was probably less than 12" from it to the highest kola. Not ideal but that is the result of not using a SCROG screen and my less-than-perfect training. I think I was stressing the highest kolas with light that was too intense. I've seen pictures of seriously deformed kolas before and I'm not that bad yet. I hope the shape of my buds remains typical and new pistil creation stops or slows. The light was probably too close. I don't think I did serious, long-term damage.
At 98 days from seed, 43 days into bloom, she is still drinking about 2 liters (1/2 gal) per day. Not much to report today. She is filling out and looks more and more frosty everyday. Her smell is mild but really nice. The breeder's description of her sweet fruity smell is spot on The buds that were not closest to the light are looking like they are a few weeks from harvest. The buds that were closest to the light still have the new pistils that don't look anywhere close to harvest. It is high summer so temps are slightly higher than I'd like but it is all working out acceptably. Not much to do but keep changing the reservoir, watching her put on weight and waiting.

Greetings, fellow growers! Welcome back to another exciting update on the journey of our beloved P.C.R.s. Week 4 of veg has been nothing short of spectacular, and I'm thrilled to share all the juicy details with you.
After the successful transplant into their final homes, our girls are thriving like never before. The transition was seamless, thanks to careful preparation and attention to detail. I made sure to clean up our 3x3 tent thoroughly, leaving no corner untouched. LED lights, fans, and all equipment received a deep cleanse to ensure a pristine environment for our precious plants.
Now, let's talk numbers. The TDS levels are holding steady at 470, indicating a perfect balance of nutrients for optimal growth. pH levels are sitting comfortably at 5.8, while the temperature remains a cozy 19 degrees Celsius for watering. These ideal conditions provide the perfect foundation for our PCRs to flourish.
Speaking of lighting, let's delve into the ViparSpectra P2000—a true gem in our grow arsenal. This LED grow light is a game-changer, providing the perfect spectrum of light for every stage of plant growth. From vegetative to flowering, the ViparSpectra P2000 delivers consistent, high-quality light that promotes healthy development and robust yields.
But the benefits don't stop there. The ViparSpectra P2000 is also incredibly energy-efficient, ensuring maximum output with minimal energy consumption. Plus, its compact design makes it the perfect fit for our 3x3 tent, delivering uniform coverage without any hot spots or shadowing.
Now, let's circle back to the importance of cleanliness in the grow room. A thorough clean-up not only promotes better plant health but also helps prevent pests, diseases, and other potential problems down the line. By starting with a clean slate, we set ourselves up for success and pave the way for a bountiful harvest.
In conclusion, Week 4 of veg has been a triumph on all fronts. Our PCRs are thriving, our grow environment is pristine, and our ViparSpectra P2000 is lighting the way to greatness. With each passing day, I'm more excited than ever to see what the future holds for our green beauties.
Until next time, happy growing, and may your harvests be plentiful!

Water change day .. Drinking. 2000 ml each per day.. So 6 days on the nute change...
*******************
2 Buckets done .. 5 Left . I may leave the caramel cream autos until tomorrow , they are drinking slightly less per day , but the big girls are drinkers for sure ....
So getting better at mixing nutes, bought giant bag of disposable droppers, god damn so much easier for me . I have visual impairment, and shaky hands from the brain tumors. The visual impairment is bad, but the shakes come and go . I normally get a few good rips on the Dr Dabber Switch before i start to help.
But the mixing went much better . less mess and i simply pitched the pipette after each use . YEs i know wasteful .... but for me , for now its what i have to do. 1 pipette for each nute for each bucket, they are cheap enough. This way not contaminating anything, and at the amount im mixing, 3 mils - 20 mils each .
Biggest problem i have, and i guess maybe not a bad problem ...
I have 4 girls on one side of the 4x9 tent, and 3 on the other. The four on the one side are all Glue Gelato Autos and my lord I can not get to the back left side bucket at all with the amount of foliage. So moved a bucket to the other side to allow me to drop in a pail to do a siphon out and refill. See pictures...
So I am 10000% upgrading to the 13 gallon x 8 fall ponic system after this grow .....
THANK GOD the caramel cream autos are half the size and 1 of the glue gelatos is slightly smaller on the right to allow me to move around the tent slightly, and im a lean dude....
But i am surprised each day when i check the progress just how far they have come for my first try ...
Still have low expectationsfor crops and yields , but am loving the time learning and getting to know hydroponics.
I TOTALLY get when the OG growers say just listen to them they will tell you what they need, legit all i have done is feed, maintain enviroment and observe.
positive i can not make the same moistakes i made so far net time just by learning my lessons and understanding better the purpose for each Nute and how to spot when the plants are asking for them .
Well have atleast 2 more to do tonight most likely will get all the gelato glues done
Cheers
Check out band i recently turned on to .. Fortunate Youth on Sugar Shack ...

Everything looks really great. Flower has reallt taken hold here at the end of week 5. Ive started my flower hardener (mendocino avalanche) and they really have perked up. Im getting much slower dry out than i woukd like, next time more perlite in my bottom layer for sure. These larger pots (7.5 gallon) really take some dialing in but the plants love them for sure. I habe 6 inches of roots coming out of the bottom of all of them. Ill try to get a picture.
