so were almost at harvest, have begun flushing this last week and hopefully will be chopping beginning of next week, then the cure... CAN NOT WAIT TO BUST UP SOME OF THESE NUGS AND PACK THEM IN THE BON 😆

Esta semana dei a primeira poda top! Na planta #3 e #6 tentei dar a poda FIM (primeira vez que tento esta técnica vamos ver como corre)

Semana 4 (del 23 al 29 de abril) Los espacios para las flores estan preparados, y las flores estan en pleno crecimiento. 25 de abril Riego con 1.2l x planta 2A + 2B + 1.5 Candy + 1.5 Big Bud + 1 overdrive + 1 B-52 + 0.16 Mammoth P + 2.5 Calmag Ph 6.1 EC: 1.2 T:20°C Periódicamente quitamos hojas que vamos viendo tocadas o que estorban. 25 de abril Los trips siguen ahí, no son muchos y parece que no prosperan demasiado pero estan ahi. Riego foliar con spruzit y tec fort para mantenerlo controlados y hoy esperamos que nos llegue diatomea para erradicarlos del todo. Quitamos las hojas que vemos que molestan o que son un poco inútiles porque no les da demasiada luz. Cada día que pasa se ven más flores y más grandes. • Malas noticias, el medidor de EC se averio y los vores del riego pasado fueron erróneos, pero ya tenemos nueva herramienta y solucionaremos los pequeños problemas causados. 29/4 Riego con 1.1l por planta 2 A + 2 B + 1.5 Big Bud + 1.5 Overdrive + 1.5 Candy + 2 Sensizym PH 6.1/6.2 EC 1.72/1.8 ms 18/19.8°C Ayer pusimos varias trampas adesivas azules para trips por si hay alguno que no vaya dando saltos de planta en planta. Hoy realizamos ultimo ( esperemos) riego antiplagas, usaremos 1.5ml•l de aceite de nem y 20g por litro de tierra de diatomea que por lo que dicen es mano de santo. Esta semana las temperaturas han subido un poco; en encendido oscilan entre 25-27°C, estos últimos días siendo más de 26-28°C. Todo sobre la marcha, algunas plantas como la bubba parece que se está adelantando porque es bastante rápida 50-55 dias, la Muffin berry ( que la teníamos en 1.2m ) la hemos tenido que doblar 45° para que no se nos vaya de altura. Por lo demás vosotros diréis 😁

Added Exhale c02 and top dressed in each pot with 1 tablespoon per gallon of growing medium my pots are 3.6. I added 3 tablespoons. It is my hopes that with adding the slow release dry amendments and once the c02 bag sarts growing my plants will finally grow. They are short but have 4 nodes at day 21. What is an exhale c02 bag? “The ExHale bag is a patented strain of mycelium that produces an abundance of CO2 without fruiting. This means that when our bag is activated, the mycelium grows, eating the substrate it comes with, giving off heaps of CO2 straight into your garden, and it does all this for 6 months - guaranteed!” At day 25 I am not impressed with the size of these girls? Hope they hit a growth spurt soon? Their internodes are stacked very nicely. At day 28 growth is very slow. Practically none existent since my top dressing at day 23. 2 plants have received a very minimal nutrient burn. As I do not have a soil ph tester? I will be watering with a ph of 6.0 rather than 6.5, hopefully that helps. ONWARD!

Overall I was very satisfied with this grow. Pyramid seeds did a excellent job with this strain I highly recommend it to all growers new and experienced. It’s a easy to grow plant does really well in veg. I give this grow a 9 out of 10.

New week! Tips and help from last week, I had around 1500 ppm and I did flush my roots in water and change everything. Now is around 1000 ppm and dropping 150 ppm a day. Did read about water level in DWC and how to increase the grow with water. I had the water almost up to the root or the level of there the basket is. Now I have 1-2 inch (2-5 cm) below where the roots come out. This create air roots. I'm not sure if it's the air roots or the ppm but my flower is boosting. Can se buds grow!! Trimming so I can keep the same hight. Have any tips or rekomandation? Only have one question for next week and this is: it's looking a bit thigth between the buds and all of the leaf is cristal on it. Should I cut some more leaf? And what leaf should I trim? Is so thigth in there. Or will it grow fine?

Hey everyone! Sorry for the delay! This week I raised the amount of phosphorus and potassium! And yikes! I went suuuuuuper high by mistake! I gave them (after pH and TDS checks) a total of 1968 ppm which I believe was just way too much for my babies 😬 gladly they barely showed some nutrient burn. With the exception of Boomer and Falcho, which both plants are still showing some chlorosis (better than last week tho) and I believe it's probably because of some sort of nutrient lock out or maybe the plant is just getting too old! You'll see from the photos how the plants developed after overfeeding them. They didn't wither 😱 or anything (and only some few leaves started to show some signs of nutrient burn) so I'm happy so far. I'll be more careful next week about this! Besides that big mistake everything went well. I kept removing dry/yellow leaves and taking care of my babies 👌 Thanks everyone for reading!

July 20 - day 41 - week 2 flowering

Harvested the Clones! I'm stoked how #4 grew out, I think she's the winner! With limited space in my grow, I'm only going to be able to bloom out the rest of the phenos clones to week 3-4.. The show must go on.. It's the price I must pay for using non-ideal cloning methods... Next round of phenohunting will have 100% cloning success, using my new aeroponics cloning machine.

Entramos en semana 4 de flora con un calor extremo con el Lec... a la espera de renovar equipo a led pero tendremos que acabar con Lec está tirada farmers, a pesar de todo tiene bastante resina y huele bastante bien sobre todo la Sweet Skitllez!🍁

Hello growmies! Welcome to week four of An Epsilon Adventure! The girls are already transitioning into flower, I will get some photos of that later in the week. Massive thanks to both Shogun and Royal Queen Seeds for sponsoring this grow. Daily Updates: ### Week 4 Day 1 11:00 16/7 Removed some lower growth. ### Week 4 Day 2 23:00 17/7 Tallest plants were showing signs of heat stress so I have raised the light about 30cm more. Unfortunately this now means the lower plants aren't getting as much light as they could, so I have put the cycle back to 20h (I may even increase it). ### Week 4 Day 3 14:00 18/7 Photographed. ### Week 4 Day 3 19:00 18/7 Fertigated 2l. Okay these girls are now starting to concern me a little on the basis that they are supposed to grow to "50-70cm". At just over 3 weeks old the shortest of these girls is 53cm, the tallest (plant 3) is now 76cm tall. The worrying thing is they do not at all look like they are slowing down and as they are just pre-flowering now, the flowering stretch hasn't even started. So I need some genuine advice here now: Do I keep the faith and hope that they don't exceed the space I have? Do I top or super crop them now? These ladies are beastly, at the end of the week I am going to take some individual videos and more photos to really try and capture how magnificently well these girls are doing. I think I may be in the process of growing the biggest Epsilon F1's so far? Exciting to find out! ### Week 4 Day 4 21:00 19/7 James has assured me they wont go much more than 85 so I am not going to mess with them. They are due a defoliation at the end of this week though. Measured each plant as follows: Plant 1: 81cm Plant 2: 75cm Plant 3: 80cm Plant 4: 67cm Plant 5: 59cm Plant 6: 58cm Might photograph later or leave until tomorrow. ### Week 4 Day 5 10:00 20/7 Photographed and measured. Plant 1: 85cm Plant 2: 79cm Plant 3: 81cm Plant 4: 71cm Plant 5: 63cm Plant 6: 63cm So they've all grown about 4cm in about 13 hours, except plant 3 - which seems to have slowed down a lot. The top of plant 3 is also the most advanced looking in terms of pistils. I forgot to take close ups of the preflowers I will do that tomorrow. I have had to raise the light again today and it is now much further away than the younger plants than I would like. So I am thinking about adding a 300w LED into my 4x4. I have another 3 inches I can raise the light on the hangers, after that I can removed the adjustable handers and tie it to the top of the tent... that'll gain me another 4 or 5 inches. If I need to go higher my only option would be to set them up without the tent which is not an option right now. Hopefully they all just stop getting taller now and focus on flowering... but my gut tells me there's more growth to come. Watch this space! ### Week 4 Day 6 15:00 21/7 Measured. Average 10cm growth 29 hours. 😳😳😲 Plant 1: 96cm Plant 2: 89cm Plant 3: 88cm Plant 4: 81cm Plant 5: 73cm Plant 6: 72cm ### Week 4 Day 6 23:00 21/7 Defoliated. Only photographed plants 1 and 2 individually as I was short on time. Some lovely pics though! ### Week 4 Day 7 15:00 22/7 Fertigated. 2l Will photograph and measure later when they've had 24h since training. ### Week 4 Day 7 23:00 22/7 Photographed and measured: Plant 1: 102cm Plant 2: 93cm Plant 3: 89cm Plant 4: 85cm Plant 5: 76cm Plant 6: 75cm Well here we are at the end of week 4 and I am quite shocked by the growth of these girls. This strain averages 50-70cm in height. We have six plants here and every one of them is taller than the average... but would you just look at plant 1? She is a giant! 102cm!! Where will she stop? Next week will see the full transition to flower and we will start to see the bud sites developing. I have no idea at this point what the heights will look like at the end of next week. This is sort of new territory really, they weren't meant to get this big! --- Thanks for reading growmies! 👊 ========== Tent: 120cm x 120cm x 180cm Light: 600w HID Elite Dual Spectrum HPS + Angel Wing Reflector Air: 5" duct fan system with carbon filter ~300 m3/hour + RAM 9" floor fan + 4" intake fan Pots: Air Pruner Fabric Pots 30l - UGro XL Coco + horticultural grade perlite (~20%) Seeds supplied by Royal Queen Seeds https://www.royalqueenseeds.com Nutrients supplied by Shogun Fertilisers https://www.shogunfertilisers.com/en ==========

A diary dedicated to the rest of my special girls. Check out my profile to see the Gorilla Glue up close (she will still appear here from time to time). Germinated them directly in the soil with natural sunlight, achieving a 100% success rate. All came out the soil with remarkably thick stems already, excited to see how these old school genetics will behave. Lots of growth during their first week of life, reaching the end of it with 2 pairs of leaves each. We surely got some sturdy girls here. Sunset Sherbet had some damage from struggling to hatch and is now slowly recovering, I’m sure she’ll catch up with time. Nothing good nutrition and proper lighting won’t fix. Bruce Banner turned out to be incredibly big for her age, never grown a seedling like her! You can tell she’s already finding her germination vase too small. Making a statement with her presence. Biscotti Mintz also looking big and very healthy. Let’s watch them grow and see what they’ve got 🌱💪

Son fotos y videos de múltiples cultivos debido a que nunca e realizado un seguimiento como tal, espero realizar uno ahora! Nutrientes Utilizados en general Trybac y Trypack biobizz. Las criticas siempre serán bien recibidas!😋 Espero les guste el contenido!

I've added week 4 early so I can keep track of the nutrients bucket , I have decided too add full recomend dose of the humic acid and the more roots and have half dosed the organic veg feed , and the results from day one / first feed on green buzz nutrients too this photo today day 5 is dramatic , the photo of all four was before defoliation , but the defoliation has just shown how busy they have this week , Also a note on nutrients I learned a lesson this week , organic feeds do not store in a bucket of bubbles , I went too the bucket I made up 3 days ago and has been stored in a 20 ltr bucket with two large bubbler air stones in as I always have with no issues , But today the mixture had seporated I had like a skin on the top of the bucket , I mixed and mixed and mixed , ended up like a soup bits floating all other the place, So I suspect I will have too make up my bucket and only use the base nutrients and only add the additional addatives on the day of use , This is probably common sense too most growers but a first for me so lesson learned , So far the plants are liking what there drinking and I've had an amazing couple of weeks with temps peeking around 23.5c - 24.8c light cycle , so have really got this extraction side sorted with my recent fan and filter upgrade , I today turned the idle speed of my climate control too around 25c But all in all a really good week progress wise as you can see from week 4 photos of day one defoliation to today's photos day 6 of week 4 , the defoliation has really bought the BlackBerry kush alive from a droppy leaved sulking runt too now just 5 days later has become something very different , some say don't do it , some swear by it , I first time round didn't and the lower plant really suffered , for me by pulling off the big problem leaves or anything you know will grow into a problem early on , you get her that shock before the flower really starts too form giving her just enough time too recover before flower , but too be fair a good defoliation doesn't seem too faze fast buds strains , infact it seems too induce them too shoot out in all directions , Then giving me the chance too tigh down those side branches , and if I'm lucky enough even the main cola , my last blackberry that was an amazing plant , I managed too pull down the top stem under a net , and it gave me meany colas and all as silly thick as each other ,

noticing a lot more smell this week, but all together shes looking great- still a little torn on whether i should flush or not. any input?zzz
