Hi all! 👊😊 Another week started ohh yeaahhh I do foliar 3 times this week and i see pistil white change in orange Smell very good pine and citrus :)

Week 9 - Venom OG and an unknown seed strain. Tap water and Espoma Bloom full dose - 12hr light schedule

Week 1 of Veg is officially in the books! It worked out perfectly that this update falls right on a Sunday. Everyone’s in weekend mode, and I actually have the time to sit down and update the diary. What happened so far: September 6th – The Transfer Transferred the sprouted seedlings into the Spider Farmer DWC buckets. Each bucket was filled with 17 liters of water (exactly reaching the bottom of the net pots). For the base water, I used RO water re-mineralized with Canna Mono CaO (1.2 ml / 5L) and MgO (0.8 ml / 5L) up to a base EC of 270 µS/cm. You may ask why single mono-nutrients instead of premixed CalMag. The reason is simply that I grow other plant species that require completely different Ca:Mg ratios than cannabis. Using single elements gives me total control to fix a specific deficiency (like Calcium) on the fly without unnecessarily bumping up Magnesium. Also added Canna Aqua nutrients (Vega A+B) and Rhizotonic according to the feeding chart to hit an initial target EC of 1.2 mS/cm (1200 µS/cm). Set the initial pH to 5.5. Substrate Choice: Pumice over Clay Pebbles Instead of expanded clay (hydroton), I’m using pumice in the net pots. Why you ask: Immediate Nutrient Availability: Pumice holds water and oxygen exceptionally well. The roots get immediate access to nutrients the moment they grow out of the rockwool cube—gaining a couple of crucial days before they even touch the main reservoir. Another reason is Algae Control: Its dense structure blocks light penetration much better than clay pebbles, keeping the reservoir dark and free of algae. Lighting & Tent Constraints Set the Lumatek ATS 300W Pro (dimmed to 25%) at 50 cm (20") above the bucket tops, giving a PPFD of 300 µmol/m²/s. Tent Layout Note: Space is tight inside an 80x80x180 cm setup (that's roughly 31.5" x 31.5" x 70.8" for my imperial friends). The DWC buckets take up 40 cm (~16") of vertical space, and I expect a decent stretch (plus I'm still figuring out if 1-handed mainlining is doable! Maybe I have to change the Diary title to not-so-lazy grow). To maximize headroom, I mounted the inline fan and carbon filter completely outside the tent so the LED can go as high as needed later on. Daily Log & Water Chemistry: Sept 7: pH crept up to 6.2 (expected as the pumice settles in). Adjusted back down to 5.5. Sept 8: Minor pH drift to 6.1 → corrected to 5.5. Sept 9: pH at 5.9 → adjusted to 5.6. Measured EC spiked slightly from 1200 to 1300 µS/cm due to minerals leaching from the washed pumice. Top-up with re-mineralized RO water brought it right back to 1200 µS/cm. Both seedlings sitting happy at 2 cm height. Sept 10: pH adjusted from 5.8 to 5.5. Raised the LED to 59 cm (23") above the buckets (reducing PPFD to 260 µmol/m²/s). The initial 300 PPFD kept them from stretching early on, resting at 2.5 cm (1") height. Sept 11: Reservoir stabilized! pH held firm with no adjustments needed. Sept 12: Small pH correction from 5.7 back down to 5.5. Sept 13 (End of Week 1): Minor pH adjustment from 5.7 back down to 5.5. Plants are showing great progress and healthy leaf development—leaf span measured at ~5 cm (2") on Plant 1 and ~6 cm (2,4") on Plant 2. Both have a height of 3 cm (~1.2"). Ready for Week 2!

Blue Dream'in into week 8! Week 7 went great thanks to the extra feeding midway through the week. Flushing will commence at the end of this week, I'm super excited to sample this lady once she's chopped and dried.

LST this week. Bout to flower.

Due to the proximity of winter, humidity and temperature dropped, which will facilitate the flowering period. The plant is starting to give off a little smell and is also needing more water. However, I am concerned with development, we think the buds aren't getting fat enough. Maybe we expected the flowers to be bigger at this point. As this is my first grow, I do not have a reference of how the plant should be. Overall we're optimistic, and we'll expect in the coming weeks that she will gain weight.

14/05: EC: 1,23 PH: 5,22 Removed all LST hooks 15/05: EC: 1,15 PH: 5,92 16/05: Added Nuts EC: 1,3 PH: 6,08 17/05: EC: 1,3 PH: 6,1 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍 Lesson Learned: AS SOON AS THE MAIN BUDS RAISE UP MOVE THE LAMP ON THE CEILING TO AVOID BURNS 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍 18/05: Changed Grow Box SetUp . I had burning lights problem and I moved the lamps on the grow box ceiling EC: 1,42 PH: 5,99 19/05: EC: 1,25 PH: 5,46 20/05: EC: 1,25 PH: 6,03

This week the plants are developing very nice new shoots with a good stretch as well a good amount of bud sites.

Taking cuttings keeping this dispo seed of blue lobster around for years to come !

This week was very hot week you were in a heatwave temperatures reached upwords 100 degrees while the heat index was around 120 degrees Fahrenheit.. the triple cheese has probably due to genetics did not grow is much as the others in the garden..I would say maybe it is the blueberry but I have grown blueberry outdoors and the trees reach-around 13 ft which isleading me to believe that this unknown plant in the garden could be leftover blueberry from last year.. I have started to review last Summer's grows to try to identify the plant if indeed the plant was in fact in the garden last Summer (took clones last year like I do every year)

Victory lap...week 13 is in the books. The girls are are just about done taking a beatdown. I came, i ve endured and over came, ive grown! Again, this was 12/12 courtesy to one photo followed by two auto pots. Unfortunately My photo( kalina asia)is a bit behind but will be pulled along with my autos (All gas Og auto& Banana Bread auto). They are 93 days from seed. I should've 84 and out the 🚪 them but whatever! I must of did something right!!! Right? Next stop the harvest...

Found mould on both autoflowers so I've taken them both down to save what was left,, Bloody humidity and lack of sun 🙄

Week 9 for GMO 8 by atlasseed The indoor smaller plant is really starting to bulk up on the flower size for sure seems like maybe it has another week maybe 2 before being done. While the other plant is now outdoors because i ran out of room indoors & the bud on the outdoor one looks completely different likely because of the 40+ degrees sun outdoors ATM but doesn't have any burn leaves so that's great. Actually looking forward to seeing how she smokes... maybe she gets ran again in a few weeks? 😎

My #AlienZ 1 is an hermie.😮‍💨 Not many seed bag found on her so i don't cut it for the moment.

16 plantitas maravillosas Dieron un resultado excelente Aromas y sabores intensos Plantas de cores sorprendentes.

Lilly X White Widow is doing well under the Spider Farmer G5000/UVR40 lights. I just changed the light times to 12/12. I will be doing a solution change to a blooming nutrition in a few days. Everything is looking great.

My favorite method to germinate seeds is the 'SERIOUS' method promoted by Serious Seeds. I have almost always a 100% success rate with. Check out the video above for the process. If you hang up the seeds inside a wet paper towel inside a plastic bag, the roots will grow out STRAIGHT instead of being curled when they lay on a plate. Make sure the tip of the seed (=pointy end) is facing downwards inside the bag, so they can open up and grow straight down towards the floor. This makes its easier to transplant the germinated seeds into soil. When you plant the seed make sure the top of the seedshell still peaks out of the soil..this make an easier start for your seedling. They will grow right out of the soil the next day.

Day 92. First of 3 girls down. Amazing, super productive strain !!! Loved that girl a lot ! Others still to come... Day 101. #1 is jared and #2 is chopped, busy day ! Day 111. #2 is Jared. Only Monster girl left. She is still pushing in ex dry tent. Day 125. Last girl is down ! Day 135. 240 g of nugs from her !!!! My record breaker by a mile ! Happy Growing !!!

Lunes 26 de Agosto 2024, segunda semana de vida de estas preciosas, siguen en giffy, próximamente trasplantar a macetita de cartón, iremos a Walmart a comprar sustratito para ese trasplante.
