Day 14 flowering: A great week for stretch among all the ladies this week. The Banana mash got a clean out and minor defoliate as they desperately needed it. They can now breath a bit better and airflow can get around the bases far better. The #1 isna nice size and looks very happy tonget in with growing unheeded. The #2, #3 and #4 are not so grown up and need Daddy to keep helping out !. #2 is not a happy girl from being overfed. She has a nitrogen claw around the bud sites and has now been given plain water to relieve the toxicity hopefully. The others have absorbed the feeds and not shown any signs but sjebseems to need less food. The #1 and #2 Purple Monkey are really focused on their bud growth now it seems while the # 3 is still stretching and sharing the energy around I have had to supercrop a few of her bigger mains to stop them touching the lights and her node distances are still widening with the stretch. 2 differently structured phenotypes are at play now and clearly different. I am very impressed with these genetics and wish I had a room full of them now..... The mimosa x exotic crosses are doing well too with the Mango X Mimosa gaining some speed now and definitely a lady. Exciting to see what she buds like now. The Exotic ? is starting to lengthen her branches finally. I have moved her to the end to encourage the gains upward. she isnt in female mode yet but is showing some signs of a reveal. The heat waves we keep getting are driving temps up to the 30° s. Thankfully running with the doors open helps as does having the exhale bag to offer more co2. I have a new viparspectra xs1500 to add to the room now too but it is a 150w and a really neat little unit so should be easily to add. plans afoot on this one.... Well that's it for this one Growmies . be safe and well until the next time.

2 Girls 1 Cup week 8 is it?? Looks like GC is on week 4 still 🤣. Day 49- big defol on GC tonight, mild prune on the right side also. Few strategic plucks on WG to help share the light evenly. My fingers are sticky asf and STINK like lemon/lime and gas. Changed RES yesterday, modified week 3 GHE bloom medium feed. Breakdown as follows: 5 gal tap/RO 20mL calmag Micro - 26.5mL Grow - 26.5mL Bloom - 41mL RES totals after PH corrections - 1148 @ 5.63 ====================================================================================================================== Day 50- where to start.... fuck.. well, i was wondering if my TDS was accurate or not. never checked it against another meter until today... and lets just say its been OFF the whole damn time!! i tested it against two other meters. one cheapo from amazon, and one from a zero water pitcher. TDS reading from each in order from current>amazon>zerowater.. 930, 642, 616. checked online and they are all on the 500 scale. so i dialed the "current" meter back to 616 to match the brand new zero water meter. never really trusted the cheapo amazon one TBH.. went ahead and topped off with 1.5L and gave them a 1/1/2 mL shot of M/G/B to boost the RES numbers a bit. currently sitting at 662 @ 5.84. so i guess GHE calculations havent been anywhere near the ballpark like i thought. maybe they were using the same damn meter i have currently, set EXACTLY as far off as mine was from factory 🤣. IDKWTF happened there, but its a good thing i started light and worked up following their signs. even though the meter was off, it was still giving me information that was useable. should have left it where it was, but my OCD would haunt me until it was adjusted. plucked a few on WG tonight and left my fingers sticky and stinky. GC keeps stretching, refusing to hit full flower still.. Sorry Herbies, i know you all exaggerate the finish times... but come on now lol... theres no way this one would finish in the time they state online.. FastBuds Wedding Glue on the other hand... she may be short, but shes STOCKY. she'll just get fatter too. who knew i liked fat chicks?? ====================================================================================================================== Day 51- few plucks here and there on WG. have to be careful now because these leaves are what's going to last the next few weeks. Can't take too many, can't leave it closed up. Since I won't be able to flush, i may do a multi harvest on WG and give GC a lil more time to hurry TF up and do her thing. I hate waisting... anticipation is building for the end. Not only to see these girls come to a finish.. but to set up the new system "correctly". Using things learned in this experiment. ====================================================================================================================== Day 53- not much to report other than the typical random strategic plucks on WG and more abuse to GC. been adding a booster to the RES every other top off. Ends up being once a day. One top off calmag'd water, one calmag'd water with a 0/1/2mL (M/G/B) per L added. Gave em a .5mL bump of M today since I've only been boosting it with G & B for the last 2 days. *edit* my dumbass forgot to set timelapse interval from 3sec to 45sec and the vid is 1.8gb long.. going to just skip today's footage. ====================================================================================================================== Day 55- GC is trying to catch up from the looks of it. It's like 3 weeks behind schedule 🤣🤣. Was going to defol the shit out of it again, but may leave it for another day or two. Once it takes WG's sun, it's getting snipped again. Forgot to mention more GC abuse from yesterday, or the day before. Didnt take a pic so I'm leaving it up to my memory. kinda accidently, purposely, tripped and precisely stabbed the main with some pointy tweezers... about half way in, and may have accidently twisted a bit before and while pulling it out... oops.. what's a lil more stress on GC right?? Maybe I'll have to trip every so many days and see if it has a positive effect 🤣. Will try and snap a pic of GC main at some point. ====================================================================================================================== As always, thanks for stopping by and checking out my current grow experiment. Check back to see when I mess it up 🤣 check out the up to date timelapse from day 27 on @ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YZxJgAYve2s

I love this plant. Thrives, grows fast and smells amazing!!! Day 63 from seed. I watered with cannazym 2,5ml/l + NRG flavor 1ml/l. I will continue with cannazym only for 1 week+ 1 week with pHed water. Mimosa x Orange punch will be ready for harvest in just 77 days from sprouting!!! One of my best grows ever... Great genetics, high quality rock hard buds! Zero issues... Thank you buddies! With Lumatek, you smoke dense flowers, not leaves. It is time to open our eyes and start recognizing truly high-quality cultivation LEDs. I always try to protect myself from becoming a victim of marketing hype. The flower-to-leaf ratio should matter to all of us who grow for personal use and want the best possible final product in the jar, as well as an excellent smoking experience. A high number of trimmed sugar leaves mixed in with the flowers can negatively affect quality, flavor, and cannabinoid concentration, while also increasing the amount of unnecessary burnt plant material. This extra biomass may make the smoke harsher on the throat and lungs over time, and overall it can reduce the quality of the experience!

Dat 37 fixed temperature and humidity issue and i noticed inmediatly a good reaction to the plant that didn’t show anymore suference during night and it absorbe all The nutrients. Big flowering phase is starting, this week i notice some stretching and i think is really starting now. Let’s see what happen Day 38 low temperature was the problem, now the plants can produce all réaction she needs. Day 42 blue is going really healthy, si smaller than thé orange and nutrients schedule is going well. I ll just rénové top max next week caus i started big bud. So curious about next weeks. Let’s go!

Week 8, and my custom fit SCROG has been installed! ❤️ At Day 50 I separated my 7 gallon girls and my 5 gallon girl. Once done, I began the very easy process of adding my “floating” SCROG. I use ratchet straps, just like the ones that come with lights to secure the four corners of the screen to the top of my tent. This allows me to adjust the screen height as necessary when 1) first installing and 2) once the full stretch of flower has occurred, I can tweak it a bit to balance the canopy as best as possible. It’s not 100%, I still get some over achievers, but I find it useful as another option. I like to do a major defoliation before I set the ladies in. Typically till this time, I have done almost no defoliation, just LST and some HST techniques. I adjusted the ladies placement to allow growth out all sides of the screen, set the screen height and began tucking and bending. The defoliation and bending allows light to penetrate all those side shoots that would have amounted to nothing, and they become top shoots as they grow up and form an even canopy. I don’t like to weave, it can damage the new shoots and cause growth problems, but the goal is to get as even a coverage as you can while allowing for plant growth in all directions. Once complete, I will give the girls about a week to recover and grow those new shoots. I like to have about 80% coverage of the screen, before I change my light cycles to flower 12/12… and if they are healthy and strong. I’ll decide this weekend if it is time ❤️👊🇨🇦😎 Happy Gardening!

Frozen hash and the highly pure 200-mesh dry sift) were combined: • Process: The aromatic Fresh Frozen material and the pure 200-mesh sift were laid out on parchment paper and repeatedly pressed and folded using a bottle. • Temperature Control: The pressing was done utilizing only body temperature (approx. 36°C). This mild heat was perfect to gently burst the membranes of the trichome heads and fuse the resins without damaging the thermally sensitive live aromas. • Shaping: Through repeated folding and final hand-rolling, three homogeneous spheres (Temple Balls) were formed. The outer, glossy-shiny layer oxidized slightly and now forms a natural, airtight protective skin for the soft, amber-colored core. 5. Storage & Maturation (Cold Cure) The finished Temple Balls were placed directly into an airtight and lightproof CVault stainless steel box without any additional humidity packs and put into the refrigerator. The planned curing time is 3 to 6 months to achieve full chemical fusion and maximize the creaminess of the Papaya Frosting and Bruce Banner profiles. Is Papaya Frosik XXL Schlagzeile: Gestaffelte Teilernte der Papaya Frosik XXL – Sicherheit geht vor! ✂️🍂 Pflanzen-Update & Training: Meine Papaya Frosik XXL ist zu einem absoluten Monster herangewachsen! Die Pflanze ist jetzt stolze 3 Meter hoch, extrem gut trainiert und dank eines mehrstufigen SCROG-Netzes perfekt gestützt. Der Hauptstamm hat an der Basis einen beeindruckenden Durchmesser von fast 7 cm erreicht – eine wahre Nährstoffautobahn! 🚀 Aktuelle Situation im Gewächshaus: Obwohl ich das Klima im Gewächshaus die ganze Zeit über sorgfältig kontrolliert habe, bin ich heute gezwungen, mit einem gestaffelten Teilernte zu beginnen. Folgende Phänomen tritt bei diesem Riesen auf: Dank der stabilen Klimazone ist der mittlere Teil der Pflanze bereits perfekt reif und unglaublich dicht. Gleichzeitig erhalten die obersten Blütenstände (die sich etwa 40 cm unter dem Dach befinden) die maximale Licht- und Wärmeintensität, wodurch sie weiterhin aktiv frische, weiße Stempel bilden. Erntestrategie & Schimmelprävention: Um das absolute Maximum aus dieser Ernte herauszuholen und jegliche Risiken auszuschließen, ernte ich ab heute in mehreren Etappen: • Zuerst der mittlere Bereich: Die Blütenstände im mittleren Bereich sehen phänomenal aus – extrem dicht, kompakt und komplett mit Trichomen überzogen! • Null Toleranz für bernsteinfarbene Trichome / Schimmelrisiko: Bei so dicken und fleischigen Blütenständen steigt das Risiko von Blütenfäule im Gewächshaus rapide an. Deshalb lasse ich die Trichome nicht zu stark bernsteinfarben werden. Sobald ich auch nur den geringsten Anflug von Bernstein sehe (schon die ersten Blütenköpfe, die sich verfärben), werden diese Blütenstände sofort geerntet! Mein Ziel ist ein sauberes, vollständig milchiges Trichomprofil für maximale Potenz und Frische, ohne Schimmelrisiko. • Die Blütenstände ernten: Die oberen Blütenstände, die noch weiße Härchen bilden, bleiben vorerst am Leben. Durch das Entfernen des mittleren Bereichs erhält die Pflanze einen massiven Energieschub, um oben vollständig auszureifen. Die ersten Testblüten aus der Mitte sind von absolut erstklassiger Qualität – das tropische Papaya-Aroma ist schon jetzt unglaublich! ❄️ Wochenbericht: Phase 2 – Kontrollierter Trocknungsprozess (Papaya Frosting) Nach der erfolgreichen Ernte der Papaya Frosting (Barney's Farm x Doja Exclusive) hat Phase 2 offiziell begonnen: der kontrollierte Trocknungsprozess. Da es sich um ein extrem harzreiches genetisches Profil mit einer feinen, tropischen Terpenmischung handelt, verwendet der Züchter ein sehr langsames und schonendes Trocknungsprogramm, um die wertvollen Aromen vollständig zu erhalten. Das Klima im geräumigen Trockenraum wird präzise gesteuert und konstant bei einer optimalen Raumtemperatur von 16 °C und einer stabilen relativen Luftfeuchtigkeit von 49 % bis 50 % gehalten. Durch die Einhaltung der Luftfeuchtigkeit knapp unter 50 % wird jegliches Risiko von Schimmelbildung ausgeschlossen. Ein großes, leistungsstarkes Belüftungssystem gewährleistet einen kontinuierlichen Luftaustausch, während ein oszillierender Ventilator für eine sanfte, indirekte Luftzirkulation im gesamten Raum sorgt und so die Bildung von Luftstau verhindert. In der Anfangsphase hängen die Pflanzen als ganze Zweige mit allen Blättern kopfüber. Diese Methode dient als natürlicher Schutz und verhindert, dass die dichten, „frostigen“ Blütenknospen der Papaya Frosting zu schnell austrocknen. Sobald die Blüten einen bestimmten Trockenheitsgrad erreicht haben, werden sie vorsichtig von den Stielen entfernt und auf ein Trockennetz gelegt. Dieses sorgfältige, langsame Vorgehen garantiert einen optimalen Chlorophyllabbau, beseitigt unerwünschte Aromen und lässt das unverwechselbare süße Papaya-Mango-Aroma im Endprodukt voll zur Geltung kommen.

Ehi ragazzi eccoci a noi! Le ragazze hibride stanno crescendo davvero rigogliose, le foglie sono proprio di un bel verde intenso del colore corretto ,ma quello che mi sta stupendo è la capacità di questa lampada Mars hydro FC E3000 di essere uniforme e intensa di qualità in tutte le piante ,le quali stanno crescendo in modo molto più omogeneo rispetto ai cicli precedenti! E sto utilizzando solo il 50 %della potenza di questa benedetta luce! È davvero impressionante , anche la velocità di crescita mi sembra aumentata rispetto ai cicli precedenti! Spero che tutto vada come ho progettato senza carenze di nutrienti.. ma purtroppo come bene sapete ogni ciclo e totalmente diverso dall' altro e ogni ragazza e strain differente hanno anche esigenze nutrizionali differenti, questo l ho notato solo con l esperienza, prima pensavo che bastava dare a tutte la stessa quantità e sarebbero cresciute identiche .. ma questo nn succede quasi mai, bisogna progettare e anticipare tutte le possibili variabili in gioco! Alla fine è "vita"❤️ noi stiamo crescendo della vita con amore al massimo delle nostre possibilità come fossero nostre figlie! Speriamo continuino così e che crescano in libertà nel miglior modo possibile! Buon 420 a tutti ragazzi vi adoro!! 👊❤️🌱🌿🌲

Laughing Buddha – Woche 20 | Blütewoche 5 Blütewoche 5 war deutlich angenehmer als die Wochen davor. Die Probleme an den Blättern sind zwar weiterhin sichtbar, aber zumindest scheint die Situation momentan nicht weiter zu eskalieren. Die bereits aufgehellten Blätter bleiben natürlich hell und auch die vorhandenen rostbraunen Punkte verschwinden nicht wieder. Was mir diese Woche aber deutlich wichtiger ist: Neue Flecken sind praktisch nicht dazugekommen. Ob die Chlorose komplett gestoppt ist, möchte ich noch nicht behaupten. Dafür beobachte ich sie lieber noch ein paar Tage. Aber zumindest wirkt die Entwicklung momentan wesentlich ruhiger. Ein großer Unterschied zu den vergangenen Wochen ist das Wetter. Draußen hat es deutlich abgekühlt und das merkt man sofort auf dem Dachboden. Unter Licht lag das Klima zuletzt beispielsweise bei ungefähr: 24 °C / 54 % rF / VPD 1,37 kPa / ca. 890 PPFD Das ist momentan ziemlich genau die Richtung, die ich haben möchte. Ob die Kombination aus hohen Temperaturen, niedriger Luftfeuchtigkeit und hoher Lichtbelastung tatsächlich die Ursache für die Blattprobleme war, wird sich jetzt langsam zeigen. Im Moment spricht zumindest einiges dafür. Der Bodensensor hat mich verarscht Beim Gießen gab es diese Woche noch eine kleine Überraschung. Nachdem ich einmal einen Tag nicht zum Gießen gekommen war, gab es am nächsten Vormittag zunächst 5 Liter. Die Bodenfeuchte fiel danach überraschend schnell wieder ab und zeitweise sah es so aus, als würde die Buddha absurd viel Wasser verbrauchen. Später stellte sich allerdings heraus, dass einer der beiden Bodensensoren vermutlich beim Arbeiten an der Pflanze etwas verrutscht war. Nachdem ich ihn neu gesteckt hatte, sprang der Wert direkt von ungefähr 25 % auf rund 40 %. Damit ergab das Ganze plötzlich wesentlich mehr Sinn. 😅 Am folgenden Tag bekam sie insgesamt 9 Liter, aufgeteilt auf 4,5 Liter morgens und nochmal 4,5 Liter abends. Seitdem beobachte ich die beiden Sensoren wieder etwas genauer, bevor ich mich nur auf einen einzelnen Wert verlasse. Jetzt passiert endlich das Interessante Während ich weiterhin die Blätter beobachte, macht die Buddha einfach das, was sie in Blütewoche 5 machen soll: Sie baut Buds. Und der Unterschied innerhalb dieser Woche ist inzwischen ziemlich deutlich. Die einzelnen Blütenstände werden sichtbar dicker und beginnen zunehmend miteinander zu verschmelzen. Gerade an den größeren Tops entsteht langsam eine richtige zusammenhängende Cola. Als Größenvergleich musste diese Woche sogar ein Feuerzeug herhalten. Besonders schön ist, dass nicht nur ein paar einzelne Spitzen gut aussehen. Über die komplette Fläche verteilt stehen inzwischen sehr viele brauchbare Buds. Auch entlang der längeren Triebe sitzen unterhalb der Tops weitere Blütenstände, die zunehmend an Volumen gewinnen. Harz gibt es jedenfalls genug Die Harzproduktion gefällt mir inzwischen richtig gut. Die Sugar Leaves sind teilweise stark mit Trichomen überzogen und auf den Nahaufnahmen sieht man schon sehr schön, wie dicht die Oberfläche inzwischen besetzt ist. Gleichzeitig sind weiterhin sehr viele frische weiße Stigmen vorhanden. Das heißt für mich vor allem: Da kommt noch einiges. Einige Buds wirken bereits ziemlich kompakt, während andere momentan noch deutlich mehr in die Höhe bzw. nach außen bauen. Gerade deshalb dürfte der Zeitraffer dieser Woche interessant werden. Beim täglichen Reinschauen nimmt man die Veränderungen kaum wahr, aber im direkten Vergleich sollte man den Zuwachs an Blütenmasse ziemlich deutlich sehen. Fazit Blütewoche 5 war für mich vor allem eine Woche der Stabilisierung. Die Blattprobleme sind noch sichtbar, aber zumindest die rostigen Flecken scheinen momentan nicht weiter zuzunehmen. Gleichzeitig sind die Temperaturen deutlich angenehmer geworden und das gesamte Klima läuft dadurch wesentlich entspannter. Und während ich noch versuche herauszufinden, ob die Stress-Theorie wirklich stimmt, liefert die Buddha bereits die deutlichste positive Nachricht selbst: Die Buds werden sichtbar fetter. 😋 Genau darauf soll der Fokus jetzt liegen. Wenn sie in BW6 genauso weiterbaut wie in dieser Woche, dürfte der Zeitraffer langsam richtig Spaß machen.

In der Übergangsphase zur Blüte zeigt die Blue Lobster eine deutliche Reaktion auf die eingeleiteten Korrekturmaßnahmen. Rückblickend auf die späte Vegetationsphase wurden knittrige Blätter und eine zunehmende Aufhellung des Blattgrüns analysiert, wobei Faktoren wie Lichtstress, VPD-Abweichungen oder pH-Schwankungen nach intensiver Prüfung ausgeschlossen werden konnten. Als eigentliche Ursache wurde ein Transpirationsstau in Kombination mit einem Nährstoffdefizit identifiziert, woraufhin die Umstellung auf Advanced Nutrients, eine Erhöhung auf 2 ml/l CalMag sowie eine gezielte Entlaubung zur Verbesserung des Mikroklimas erfolgten. Auch wenn das Problem zum Ende der ersten Blütewoche noch nicht vollständig verschwunden ist, zeigt der neue Austrieb bereits eine klare Besserung und eine Rückkehr zu satteren Grüntönen, was bestätigt, dass die Anpassungen gegriffen haben und die Lady sich nun nachhaltig stabilisiert. Mit diesem positiven Trend und einem regenerierten Stoffwechsel startet sie nun vielversprechend in den Stretch der generativen Phase.

week 9 of flower for these girls The smell off them is pretty extraordinary now, I really cannot wait to taste them, Thinking of cutting down next week, awkward place to try and check the trichomes on them atm, but since there are 2 I'll definitely cut one next week and maybe let the other finish week 10, will see Thanks for swinging by

9-20 - decided I was gonna pull these before. I went to sleep last night. Glad I looked again. Light green growth due to swollen calyxes. Buds swelled up quite a bit in the last 24 to 48 hours. Inside the calyxes trichomes are clear to cloudy. Fan leaves have a lot of amber. I popped off a nug and cut it and it was still very undeveloped inside. I had a Buddy with a lot more experience tell me that I needed to pull these two weeks ago. Glad I resisted. It was only after the calyxes swelled up that I realize how early it really was. Still very few Amber trichomes. Still drinking water too. gonna keep rolling with it. Definitely starting to fade a bit.

. 🌱 : LST and defoliation on day 49 💧 : 4l day 53, no pk13/14, 4l day 55 💡 : Dli: 40 mol/m²/d 🤔 : After optimizing many things, I suspect that I'm adding pk 13/14 too early, which then leads to a magnesium deficiency due to too much potassium from pk 13/14 and calcium from the tap water (16.1°dH, calcium 80.8 mg/l, magnesium 21.0 mg/l).

April 26, 2024 Day 71 It's a new week and the start of late flower. It was also cleaning day. Both reservoirs have been cleaned out and are freshly loaded with new water. This week we are focusing on watering and nutrients. I may start to drop the dose until flush, over this week and the next. The light power will also be gradually dropped down over the next 2 weeks. Not much this week, I think I'll drop the DLI down to 43 mol/m²/d in the middle of the week. Next week I'll drop it down to 38 mol/m²/d. It all depends on what the plants look like. The plants are getting ready to hunker down and finish up. Both have decent sized buds and just need to finish swelling. I'd say another 2 weeks maybe? Flushing will start at some point over the next 2 weeks as well. Flushing won't be much of a big deal as it's just cleaning the reservoirs and running a week of Flawless Finish. The environment is changing a bit as well. I dropped the day temp down to 75° and the night temps to 65° or lower. Not cold enough to cause stress, but enough to get some purple I hope. The humidity is sitting at 47% and I'll be leaving it there unless somehow I can get it to go lower. For now it's pretty solid at 47% and everything looks great, so no need to worry. I'll be taking trichome pics every few days. One pic for each plant. No point in loading up the whole photo gallery with even more daily pics. Plus, the progression of trichomes isn't fast enough to really notice daily. So every 3 days should be fine. Grow System Environment: Temp: 74.2° RH: 47.7% VPD: 1.49 kPa April 27, 2024 Nothing happening today. Both ladies were inspected with no issues. I snipped a single leaf off of Banana Purple Punch B. Just one. Blocking bud sites. Banana Purple Punch A has some massive buds. About the size of golf balls. Maybe a bit smaller. They are still swelling and have a good 2 weeks left. Pistils are still mostly white, so that's a good sign for larger buds and more trichomes. Banana Purple Punch B is looking wonderful as ever. She doesn't seem to be suffering any issues with nutrient burn unlike her sister plant. She's perfectly healthy and has very nice bud production. The buds aren't quite as big as Banana Purple Punch A, but still nice and sizeable. The nutrient burn seems to have stopped for Banana Purple Punch A. So that's good. It should be perfectly fine now. Lighting is staying the same for the next couple of days. Although, I may keep it the same for the rest of the week. The environment is excellent now. It's raining today and the humidity is still at 47%. I did get it down to 44% for most of the afternoon yesterday, so I may be able to keep it down after the rain stops. Or just wait for the afternoon and see what happens. Either way, the humidity is now at 47% and the temp is at 76.8°. The VPD is at 1.57 kPa. A tiny bit high, but still well within range. Last night's temp was a little high at 69°. I'll have to drop the temp lower again to get that 65° sweet spot. Grow System Environment: Temp: 74.4° RH: 45.7% VPD: 1.55 kPa April 28, 2024 Not much to do today. I mixed a new batch of nutrients for both plants. The only difference is that I cut the Overdrive in half down to 2 ml/gal. Neither plant needs it, but now it's mixed and ready to go. I may end up filling the reservoirs tonight as it stands. Or later this afternoon. I don't think they will last til tomorrow morning. Both plants are putting off a wonderful aroma. I honestly can't describe it. Like sweet and kind of a hint of banana and a bit heady. Trichome production is picking up quickly. The pistils are starting to turn orange as well. They are definitely in the late flowering stage. I think I'll start dropping the nutrients for the next watering. And I'll drop the DLI down to 40 mol/m²/d tomorrow I think. Not much else to say about nutrients or lighting, so moving on to the environment. It's a warm humid day out and raining off and on. My whole environment is wonky, with humidity being at 57% and the temp at 77°. I turned the AC on about an hour ago and the temp went down to 75°, and humidity up to 60%. I think I'll crank the AC all the way down. And hopefully get rid of the humidity with the temp being a bit lower than perfect. Update: I ended up adding about a half gallon of plain water to both reservoirs. Just Incase I have nutrient lockout or something. They should go through that by tomorrow afternoon. Maybe late evening. Grow System Environment: Temp: 75.6° RH: 52.8% VPD: 1.39 kPa April 29, 2024 No watering today. I'm still waiting for the plain water work it's way through. However, I did drop the light power. Both ladies look great. Big buds, great scent and nice color. I'm not seeing any fade yet, but the nutrient burn is still there. I hope it will fix itself with the plain water. And then maybe fading will start. These two need a good 2 weeks or so before harvest. The lighting, as I said, was changed today. I dropped the power down to 70% to get as close as possible to 40 mol/m²/d. I may have to drop it another 10%. I'm not too sure. I'll check the DLI again when I'm more awake. (I'm finally on my second cup of coffee. Lol) Looks good though. Just around where I want it to be. But there are a lot of spots where the DLI is a bit high at 43 mol/m²/d. The tallest tops are also kind of high at 45 mol/m²/d. Again, I'll double check on a couple hours, but it should be fine. The environment is wonky again today. The temp is fine, but the humidity is still high at 60% and I don't see a way to drop it again. Not with the current weather. Hopefully I can get it down with some heat. The AC method did not work. Well, it maybe will work tonight. I'll be dropping that bad boy down to 59° tonight and hopefully it will do what I need it to. Grow System Environment: Temp: 74.2° RH: 59.8% VPD: 1.15 kPa April 30, 2024 Watering day. The reservoirs were both nearly empty and there was just enough space for a full gallon in each one. It's the normal nutrient dose with Overdrive being at 2 ml/gal. These two plants are looking mighty fine. Excellent bud swelling and trichome production. I'm definitely going to be wet trimming them instead of my normal dry trim. I may leave the bods on the branches and do a partial wet trim, or I guess mostly wet trim. They smell great! Very strong aroma now. I swear they smell like artificial grape. I can't describe it any other way. Grape and pungent. Awesome. So far the light seems to be fine. No reaching or showing any signs of lack of lighting. They look pretty happy. Although, Banana Purple Punch A is a bit sad from nutrient burn. Banana Purple Punch B however didn't seem to have much of a problem with the burn. The environment is still pretty wonky. High humidity again. I can control the temp pretty easily, but the humidity is another issue. It's currently sitting at 56% and I'm holding the temp at 76°. Grow System Environment: Temp: 75.5° RH: 57.0% VPD: 1.26 kPa May 1, 2024 Not a whole lot going on today. No water needed, no light changes. I rotated both ladies 180° so now they are getting light on other sides. I'll leave them like this for the rest of the grow I think. Banana Purple Punch A actually fits better in the new position. Less wall touching and about the same neighboring plant touching. I also removed 3 leaves. Ones that were misshapen from being crushed against the tent walls. Banana Purple Punch B seems to fit a little better in the new position, mostly because of her sister plant. More room on the outside and a little less room inside. No leaves were removed today. I'll reserve that for the last 2 days of the grow cycle. Then I'll do a massive defoliation and then a wet trim. It's humid here right now and I need the space. Otherwise I'd stick with dry trimming. But I can't hold up the tent for 3 more weeks. I have other plants getting ready to be planted in their final containers. Like a week for that, I might be able to squeeze a week and a half, but that's it. They will have a space, but the main tent is where they will need to be. Not a 2x2 dry tent. I'll work it how I need to I guess. Anyway, both ladies look great! Trichome production is coming along nicely as well. They are very smelly now and I love it. They are also still packing on weight I think. Not a ton, but the buds are clearly getting denser now that some of the pistils are starting to turn orange. I'd say another 2 weeks on these two. As I said, the lighting hasn't changed at all. Not for another few days to a week. Then it will have another power drop. Until then, we are staying at a DLI of 40 mol/m²/d. It's roughly 38 mol/m²/d on the outer part of the canopy. The environment is STILL wonky. I cannot for the life of me get that damned humidity down at all. Not with a dehumidifier, not with the heat cranked, not with the AC cranked. I'll try my big dehumidifier in my room, but the humidity is like 49% and frankly I'd rather the room humidity stay there. Much easier to breathe. However, the humidity in the tent is suffering at 59% while the temp is hanging out still at 76° Grow System Environment: Temp: 75.2° RH: 56.1% VPD: 1.27 kPa May 2, 2024 Not a lot going on today. No watering needed, no trimming, nothing. I found a broken bud on Banana Purple Punch A. It must have been from when it was against the wall, or too close to the other plants and got stuck on a branch while I was rotating. Oh well. It's a lower bud, so not huge. It's also the last day of the week and that means new videos! For the rest of the grow, I'll be making weekly videos of the individual plants. So that will.be this week and the next 2 weeks or so. Banana Purple Punch A looks great aside from that one broken bud. Her buds are fat and thick. Super dense from what I can see. I would like to note that the fade hasn't started yet, so we still have that 2 weeks left. Unless it starts in the next day or 2, I'll be banking on 2 weeks. Banana Purple Punch B is still compact as ever, but her buds are getting fatter everyday and of all the plants in the tent, she has done the best with the nutrients. Very little burn and didn't seem to be bothered by it. Maybe I did something early on to have such a small plant, but still. I think I can bank on 2 oz from each plant. Maybe 3 oz. It's really nothing compared to previous grows, but as I said before, as long as it's fire, I'm happy. Trichome production on both plants is fantastic. They are loaded from top to bottom. And building more and more everyday. There's still plenty of time left for there 2 as well. Most of the trichomes are clear with about 20% being cloudy and sparsely amber. That's another sign that they need another couple of weeks. Maybe slightly less. I increased the light power yesterday back up to 80%. I think I was a bit early on the intensity drop, so I'll drop it again in a few days I think. Around mid week coming up. Now we are running a DLI of 43 mol/m²/d inside and 40 mol/m²/d on the outside. The environment kinda fixed itself, but not to the ideal climate. It's still at 55% humidity. Better than 60%, but still not good enough. It needs to be below 50%. However, I can still control the temp and I have it at 74.5°. I'll turn it up a bit and see if I can clear out the last 5% of the humidity. Grow System Environment: Temp: 73.7° RH: 55.2% VPD: 1.24 kPa Update: I added a couple test videos to see if they would upload. Success!
