Just getting going again after some mods to my grow box. I’ve replaced the main CFL bulb with an LED and it is much brighter. I also removed the second carbon filter to create more space in the box. The new setup allows for more even space and light distribution and overall more growing space. With the additional light I thought I would try out CO2 so I added an Exhale365 bag. Starting out with 3 plants, 2 Pineapple Express and 1 Pineapple Skunk. There was some type of burn on the first seedling but that was earlier on and it has grown a lot since I first noticed it. I planted the seeds days apart so a few are behind. Growbox summary: * grow space: 19”H x 17”W x 21”D * 4 small, 1 medium internal fans * 3 gallon hydro reservoir * 6 inch exhaust fan + 4 inch exhaust fan in sequence * 150W Mars Hydro TS-1000 (new) * 3 X 20W LED side lights (+1 new) * Exhale CO2 bag (new) Water temps are ranging from 68 up to 70. It’s a small space, but with light covering all sides I think I can get a decent yield. Last time 3.2 ounces were harvested from it. Hoping to hit 5 ounces this time by creating fewer, but larger colas. Day 6 update: * The pinex-1 is looking a little funky. It has weird leaf growth, some minor defects in color, super short compared to the others, and the first leafs are starting to canoe a little. * pinex-2 and pskunk are looking good and growing well, but the leaves aren’t very green. * decided to bump up nutrients a little by moving to week 2 on the schedule and diluting to 60%. That took the ppm up from 400(200 base) to 630(210 base). Hoping if they weren’t getting enough nutrients that this will fix it. * the new light might be a little to bright for these babies. Dimmed it to about 75% power.

These girls have all finally got into their 15L Auto pots, right now I am just waiting to get the roots accustom to the pots before I rig up the system, really excited to try them out . Goal for this week : 1) make sure I expose as many flower sites as possible. 2) get the canopy opened up for maximum airflow , I will do this through Low stress training. As you can start to see I'm using zip ties to put anything above the first ring on my tomato cage. Anything that is unable to connect to the first ring of the tomato cage will be left until flower and then when it stretches I will put them on the second ring of the tomato cage.

Week 0: Germinated her the old-school way...two paper towels, between 2 saucers.. Fastbuds: I was so impressed with the packaging ..even though I was not able to get the original packaging (Discreet).. Week 1: just sprinkled H20 on her.. Midweek she sprouted. Week 2: Added some AgriSil K50 for her root development..She showed her first true leafs like yesterday..

7/15 430am. Tuesday OG is moved from CannaKan to Organi-plug, then to 1 gallon small pot grow. With my System to make up for the lack of space and high stress environment. My major problem is I dont like working with dirt, it's dirty and hurts to hover over a bathtub and do it cleanly. Thats the challenge of CLEAN indoor micro-grows. The CannaKan fits inside the small A/C Infinity Germination stations. 7/15 1145pm almost midnight. Woke up and didn't need coffee just one, I will have 14 more but I needed 1. NO ENERGY SHOTS. The thought of energy shot which I needed just to function are not needed. Down to 124 pounds but re-gaining and this strain with my amino / combo will keep my nausea medication and now I have used sugar leaves and the increased resin for cysts and skin conditions as they arise. I am hoping this strain works in my high stress environment, I have found some that do and some that excel at what I am tryin to do. 7/16 140am Transfer to larger pot today, dirt work. MABYE NOW IS TIME FOR WHISKY ???? IF I HAVE TO OPEN THE CYST ON MY NECK AND BACK I WILL NEED LOTS OF WHISKY FOR THAT, VERY PAINFUL LAST TIME I TRIED. THEN I CAN WORK WITH THE DIRT, ILL ALREADDY BE DRUNK SO I WILL THINK ITS FUN!! IM SO SMART!!! 416AM ATAMI YOU ARE A COMPLICATED PRODUCT. She is full of secrets and very powerful. I have to be extremely careful with this. My aminos are increasing uptake and availability so she might be at .25 instead of half .5. She seemed to shock the plant a little at first. like using organic with non organic and unbalanceing the system. Now however she seems to be transforming the leaves and flowers into puffier surfaces and the over all smell of the tent is nicer, aTAMI Bloomtastic smells fresh and clean. 7am Ask Ai, What effect L- Citrulline Malate & L- Citraline on plants? Citrulline, found in plants and abundant in watermelon, has several notable effects on plant physiology and stress tolerance: Antioxidant and hydroxyl radical scavenging: Citrulline is a potent scavenger of hydroxyl radicals, protecting plant cells and metabolic enzymes from oxidative damage, particularly under stress conditions such as drought. Studies show it is more efficient than other compatible solutes like proline and mannitol in this role. Drought and salt stress tolerance: Citrulline accumulation is associated with increased tolerance to drought and salinity stress in certain plants like watermelon and some melon genotypes. It contributes to osmotic adjustment and helps plants maintain water status during these adverse conditions. Exogenous application of citrulline has also been shown to improve antioxidant enzyme activity and essential oil content in hyssop plants under water stress. Nitrogen transport and metabolism: Citrulline has been proposed to function as a carrier of organic nitrogen in cucurbits and is found in high concentrations in their phloem. This suggests a role in nitrogen assimilation, storage, and long-distance transport within the plant. Research also indicates its involvement in nitrogen homeostasis. In summary, L-citrulline plays a significant role in helping plants cope with environmental stresses, primarily by acting as an antioxidant and contributing to osmotic adjustment and nitrogen metabolism. However, more research is needed to fully understand its precise mechanisms and potential applications in agriculture. "" 11am ""Combining iron with certain amino acids like glycine, asparagine, serine, methionine, and threonine, can enhance iron absorption. Additionally, vitamin C (ascorbic acid) is well-known for its ability to significantly improve iron absorption, especially from non-heme sources, according to Michigan State University. Specific amino acids and their impact on iron absorption: Glycine and Asparagine: These amino acids have been shown to significantly increase iron absorption when ingested with iron, particularly in rats, according to ScienceDirect. Methionine and Threonine: These amino acids, when combined with iron, have been shown to improve hemoglobin levels in young women, suggesting enhanced iron utilization according to National Institutes of Health (NIH). Histidine: It can bind ferrous iron, forming a stable complex that may be important for its solubility and absorption, according to Cambridge University Press & Assessment. Serine: Similar to glycine and asparagine, serine has also been shown to increase iron absorption in animal studies according to ScienceDirect. Important Considerations: Vitamin C's Role: Vitamin C is particularly effective in enhancing non-heme iron absorption (iron from plant-based sources). Dietary Sources: Combining iron-rich foods with vitamin C-rich foods (liked citrus fruits, berries, and vegetables) can maximize iron absorption from your diet. Individual Needs: Iron absorption can be influenced by various factors, including individual iron status and the presence of other dietary components 🚨Several recent studies demonstrated that treatment with the BCAA LEUCINE improves the anemia 🚨 7/16 2250am I found a fluorescent light to put in the fixture in front of the germination station. I’ve heard fluorescent is the best so I have fluorescent and LED set up for my station. It’s really nice.👍👍🚨 🚨🚨🚨 UPDATE 7/26 1124PM THE FLORESCENT CFL BULB MADE A SIGNIFICANT AND OBVIOUS IMPROVEMENT ON VEGING LEAF SIZE!!!! 7/17 12am goddamnit. mistakes were made, lessons were learnted. because brainsmarts make weed good or bad whichever is funnier...im sofa king we todd it. 7/18 1215am BCAA into iron and anemia """🚨In the current study, the three BCAAs valine, leucine and isoleucine were significantly correlated with Hb, ferritin and the sTfR. The linear regression models showed strongest associations between BCAAs and Hb. Lowered BCAA levels were found with lowered Hb values. These findings are consistent with the results of a previous study by Chung et al., who demonstrated, that the uptake of the essential BCAAs is a very important component of Hb synthesis in hematopoietic stem cells (19). In this context, the mTORC1 was shown to be a key regulator in hematopoietic stem cell function (20). This multi-protein complex acts as an intracellular sensor of BCAA availability, which coordinates the Hb production (19,21). Here, the strongest correlation was found between the BCAA valine and Hb (r=0.382; P 7/18 RICKY'S HASH PLANT BUTTFACE!!! LOOK AT THAT SEED, HILARIOUS!!!! OTHERS LOOK GREAT TOO 7/19 I put the three extra seeds and the little cubes if I don’t transfer them right away I know I’ll destroy three more seeds. I also have two more mint jellies going for some reason and I might put the doctor Seedman with this as well, I love the magnetic stir thing. It keeps nutrients longer when you can stir them all day.👍👍👍👨‍⚕️. 7/20. almost its 1118pm 7/19 still. AMAZING AMAZING RESULTS. THE AMINOS ARE WORKING. ALSO ON ME. I AM CONDUCTING MEDICAL RESEARCH ON MYSELF AND ITS WORKING. ALSO METHELYENE BLUE MUST BE A CONTRIBUTING FACTOR??!! TMG POWDER, &METHYLE FOLATE PLUS. NECK CYSTS ARE HEALING, NIGHT SWEATS FEVER DROPPING TO NORMAL. BOUTS OF SUDDEN HYPOTHERMEA AND NAUSEA HAVE DECREASED. DIGESTIVE SYSTEM WORKING BETTER THAN EVER. NO MAJOR OR MINOR BLOOD LOSS. NO MAJOR ORGAN PAIN. NOT TRIPPING AS MUCH, STILL DRAGGING ONE FOOT, I TRIP SOMETIMES. MOOD IS ELEVATED, CONCENTRATION MAXIMUM. CREATIVE ENERGY IS UNLIKE ANYTHING EXPERINCED IN YEARS. THE SYSTEM IS WORKING ON THE PLANTS AND ME!!! I AM SO GLAD I LISTENED TO SLINGBLADE NEWS. SOME PEOPLE CALL IT THE ALEX JONES SHOW, I CALL IT SLINGBLADE NEWS CAUSE ITS FUNNIER. HE IS THE REAL DEAL WITH HEALTH I CAN NOT BELIVE ITS ALL WORKING. AND QUICK SORB AMINOS, NITRIC BOOST, METHELYENE BLUE FOR THE PLANTS AND ADD TMG POWDER, METHYLFOLATE PLUS, MAGNESIUM, ZINC BY BIOTICS RESEARCH AND METHYLENE BLUE 5 PERCENT BY LIOPHY (GOT IT OFF AMAZON, A.J. STUFF IS TOO EXPENSIVE TO EXPERIMENT WITH). 430am making food now. nap from 130 to 230am woke up feeling good not tired...AGAIN...WOO HOO MOTHER FUCKELRSSSSS!!!!!

The plants are demanding way more nutrients at this stage - and unfortunately, they’re almost outgrowing the grow space 😅. We’re seeing medium-level deficiencies across the board and some mild heat stress (tacoing leaves). To fix this, we’ll start adding fertiliser with every watering for the next 4–5 rounds and see how the new growth looks. The flowers still have the potential to become A-B-S-O-L-U-T-E-L-Y massive, so we stay calm and just feed, feed, feed! 🚀🌸 Stats so far: 💧 Watering: 1.5L every other day 💦 Humidity: ~65% RH 🌡️ Temp (lights on): 22–26°C 🌡️ Temp (lights off): 20–22°C 📈 Avg. VPD (lights on): ~1.2 kPa

The time has come, here we are into the first couple of days of flowering, slightly upset because I can’t look at them during the day and their light cycle runs at night but I have to get used to, I used to spend hours staring at them. My Gf told me to get for a second into the feeling of the plants and imagine this human look at me for hours 🤣🤣 I have to admit that would be slightly creepy and they don’t know yet that I’ll chop them down and smoke ☠️ Enjoy fellow growers ☮️✌️🏼😎

Day 85 / Flip 46 / 24.3 Flushed them again with EC 0,0 water. EC Drain is now on 0,0. The next step is to let them dry out. Nutrients will get soaked out of the leafs now, which will make them turn yellow. Letting the plant die now with full light power. I'm planning to harvest in 1 week. Grow is running nice,. Plants look super frosty and will even get more in the drying stage now.. yayyy.....:) Day 91 / Day 52 / 30.03 Additional stress with a 48 hours no light stage. harvest will be at 1.

Doubled the nutes and the plant grew 8" in a week span and its not in flower. I may have to transplant to 20 gallons next week if it is measured around 40". I did a lot of defoliating to get rid of some huge fan leaves covering up bud sites and I also trained a lot. She is very wide and almost 3ft tall with a lot of pulling down, I'm very pleased

Well i figured i would try some different this week. I main lined her and topped her on day 9. Lets watch and see how she responds. I feel as though doing this early in veg will allow her more time to adjust before flower. Towards the end of the week 2, four days after the HST....we see 2 new main top braches coming in, as well as some action at the internodal cut point which is indicating a "Fimm" job rather my prior presumption of topping the plant. None the less i am excited to see her grow, and i intend on letting her grow naturally beyond this point....just to see the results.

Die Pflanzen zeigen weiterhin ein sehr vitales Wachstum. • Wuchs: Das Blätterdach ist jetzt vollständig geschlossen, die Pflanzen nutzen den vorhandenen Raum optimal aus. Seitentriebe strecken sich gleichmäßig und sorgen für eine dichte Struktur. • Farbe: Kräftiges, gesundes Grün mit leichtem Glanz – ein Zeichen für stabile Photosynthese und perfekte Nährstoffaufnahme. • Düngung: Steigerung auf Canna Coco A+B je 5 ml/l wird sehr gut vertragen, keine Anzeichen von Überdüngung. • Gesamtzustand: Gesunde, vitale Pflanzen mit ausgeglichener Struktur – bereit für die nächste Phase.
