They just starting week 5. I've been busy and haven't had a chance to transplant them yet. So they are still in the 1 gallon nursery pots. I will be uppotting them tomorrow and getting them ready to flip in a week or so. They have been super easy to manage. I really like the structure on these two. No crowding, each node has enough space and light allowing them to grow at a good rate. Relative to the rest of the plant. Once they get transplanted and I turn the light up they are going to take off. 😁

Week is going great everyone. The canopy allowed all the plants to green up. I guess they were getting sun/heat stressed and it caused them to yellow. At first I thought it was over watering, but not watering did nothing. I'm actually watering a bit on the heavy side this week. I'm also thinking it's about time to add some worm castings. 1 girl identified on DAY 57 (she's tall and leafy, has a little red on one of the lower leaves' stem). I'm going to bend her a little and have her angled across the pot. She has one companion that hasn't been identified. 3 males identified as of DAY 63 --all three tall--one thicker than the others--all 3 taken down--great roots--orange danky aroma--not planning on keeping males this year--but it still hurts a little to take a plant down. :-( Thank you to all the likes and everyone else viewing. The outdoor season is in full effect. Happy growing!

================================================================================= CRIB NOTES - I'M USING A LIGHT CYCLE OF 6 ON 2 OFF THIS SHOULD KEEP THE LADIES FROM STRETCHING AND GROW VERY COMPACT. Many growers advocate the use of an 18/6 light schedule (18 hours on, 6 hours off) while plants are in Veg. However, this may not be the most beneficial light schedule. Switching to a series of 6/2 (6 hours on, 2 hours off) light patterns may increase plant growth while also potentially creating a more stable controlled environment. While this new schedule may sound risky, it actually comes with a number of benefits. Cannabis is a “short-day plant,” meaning that it will only flower when exposed to long periods of darkness and short periods of light. For cannabis to flower, there must be at least 12 hours of continuous darkness. This allows for the use of a series of shorter light schedules while the plant is in Veg – as long as the plant receives less than 12 hours of continuous darkness, it will stay in Veg. BENEFITS OF A 6/2 LIGHT SCHEDULE There is a lot of research that suggests that cannabis plants can only process a certain amount of light per day. After that level has been reached, the plant can no longer absorb more light, and any additional light is essentially wasted. By breaking the light cycle into multiple 6 hour periods, the plant is able to rest and process the light it has received. When the lights come back on 2 hours later, the plant will be ready to process additional light, allowing you to get the most plant growth out of every minute your lights are on. At a biological level, cannabis’s inability to grow more once it has received a certain amount of light can be attributed to the way the plant processes carbon dioxide (CO2). A majority of the mass accumulated in cannabis is associated with the amount of CO2 found inside plant cells. While under light, cannabis tries to prevent CO2 from leaving its cells by cutting off transpiration. However, this prevents new CO2 from entering into the cell, blocking new growth. When the lights are turned off, and no photosynthesis is occurring, the plant is able to absorb new CO2 into its cells. Additionally, when plants are exposed to 18 straight hours of intense light, they become stressed. Signs of stress – droopy or curled leaves – will usually appear towards the end of the light cycle. While some stress can be beneficial to plant growth, too much stress can cause harm to your plants and prevent them from reaching maximum growth potential. Giving plants 6 hours of intense light at a time not only puts less stress on the plants, it also spread out the load on your cooling system over a longer period of time. The cooling system works the hardest when lights are on. By turning off the lights for 2 hours at a time throughout the day, your cooling system will get a break between light cycles, allowing the room to be cooled to desired temperatures before the lights come back on. With a properly sized cooling system, this benefit will be minimized as the system will be designed to handle the heat load throughout the entire light cycle. While there are many approaches to Veg light cycles for cannabis, a 6/2 schedule allows for maximum plant growth. A 6/2 schedule allows plants to process more intense light, prevents plants from becoming stressed and puts less stress on your cooling system. It’s a win all around. Give your plants a break every 2 hours and you’ll be amazed at the results. ================================================================================= Day 1 October 1st - 2018 - The 3 Seeds are in germination at the present. The seeds were soaked in reverse osmosis water for 16 Hr. then transferred to a paper towel. DAY 2 October 2nd - 2018 - 2 out of the 3 seeds have germinated. the first 2 will be put into hydrofarm soilless seed starters using Revers Osmosis water and placed under 3 grolux flor 45 watt. Day 2 October 2nd - 2018 1:00 Pm. All 3 seeds planted into hydrofarm soilless seed starters using Revers Osmosis water and placed under 3 grolux flor 45 watt Day 3 October 3rd - 2018 - 9:00 Am. 2 ladies have popped out there little heads. Day 4 October 4th - 2018- 9:30 Am Seedlings are doing fine. All 3 seeds have germinated. Day 5 October 5th - 2018 ROW being installed. 2:30 Pm ROW installed. Day 5 October 5th - 2018 Seedlings are getting first set of single serrated leaves. Day 5 October 5th - 2018 The tent is setup and running R.O.W. Day 5 October 5th - 2018 Washed all Hydroton Clay Pellets in ROW. NO DETERGENTS. Rinse and Rinse again. Using R.O.W. so the medium has a practically no Ph. Day 6 October 6th - 2018 - Transferred the best 2 seedlings to tent under Veg. 1000 Watt L.E.D. Each bucket contains 19 liters of R.O.W. no nutrients added. This will continue for the next 2-3 weeks depending on growth. Day 6 October 6th - 2018 Seedlings put under Light Cycle of 6 On 2 Off Ect. Day 7 October 7th - 2018 - Seedlings looking good. Seems everything is fine on 6 on 2 off light cycle. Day 7 October 7th - 2018 - The 3rd seed germinated is looking very healthy. Transplanted it from the hydro seed starter to a 1 gallon planter with soil. Placed this in between the 2 main plants in the D.W.C. & used R.O.W.

Week 14 and it will be the last week for Tamara. Maybe she could live one or two longer, but my vacations starts in 10 days …and at the pic‘s you see …Tamara is in my eyes ready to Harvest… thanks for 98 days growing with you 💚

.

Overall great genetics super fast

Week six of flower I went in to the tent today an lots of new purple on the buds, couldn't believe how nice they look💚🤩, man does she look stunning, I'm in awe with these beautiful flowers👌🏻

04.06. Day 84 Flowering Day 64

03.04.24 Startet soaking them in Water, all of them fell to the bottom.💧 Transplanting them later on the day into cups.🥤 05.04.24 Transplanted them into their cups, now waiting till the 4 girls show up. 🌱 07.04.24 Banana and GG #4 showed up first and pretty much at the same time. The other are still underground.🌱🍌☀️ 09.04.2024 Sunset paradise showed up, now just waiting for the Runtz.. 🌱 10.04.2024 They all doing well, besides the runtz. Still no sign, but it surely comes🌱 11.04.2024 Everyone doing well, just runtz doesn’t want to show up… slowly I believe it’s never coming but we will wait a few days🙏🏻 14.04.2024 Oke guys I think the runtz is dead.. im a little bit sad bc i wanted to test this strain.. but it happens🙂 Addet some new soil for the bigger 2, because the head was too heavy.. hope this doesn’t cause more problems..🙏🏻 But let’s see how the other 3 are going. I think tomorrow I start a new veggie week here. 🌱✌️

🗓️ Semana 2 de Floración (Día 9 a 12/12) — Estirón de Verano y Nutrición de Precisión (Multivariedad) ¡Buenas a todos, comunidad! Actualizo el diario tras 9 días desde el cambio de fotoperiodo al 12/12. El jardín está en un momento espectacular y las tres genéticas que tengo en el armario —Gary Payton, Mimosa y Queen of Soul— están respondiendo de lujo al inicio de la fase de floración. ✂️ Evolución de la Poda, Canopy y Diferentes Estructuras La defoliación y el lollipop que les hice justo al pasar a 12/12 han sido un éxito rotundo en las tres variedades. Ninguna ha mostrado signos de estrés; al contrario, han canalizado toda la fuerza hacia las puntas principales: Gary Payton: Mantiene una estructura súper robusta y compacta, con ramas laterales fuertes y hojas de un verde oscuro precioso. Mimosa: Muestra un vigor excelente en este inicio de estiramiento, preparándose para formar esas puntas tan características de la variedad. Queen of Soul: Como buena heredera de su linaje, es la que muestra un estirón más estilizado y elegante. He tenido que jugar un poco con las alturas para mantener la canopia homogénea bajo el panel LED. Toda la canopia está súper bien nivelada y las hojas lucen increíblemente firmes, apuntando hacia arriba ("rezando") y mostrando una turgencia impecable. 🌡️ Parámetros Ambientales (Cultivo de Julio ☀️) Cultivar en pleno julio siempre es un reto, pero los parámetros se mantienen bastante controlados gracias a la eficiencia del LED: Temperatura: 28 °C (bastante estable para la época de verano en la que estamos). Humedad Relativa (HR): 40%. Estrategia VPD: Al estar en un ambiente seco y cálido típico de esta época, controlo muy de cerca la transpiración. Para evitar que las plantas absorban demasiadas sales por la alta evaporación foliar, estoy manteniendo riegos muy equilibrados e intercalando agua sola con pH regulado. Plan de Alimentación (Fase de Transición) He comenzado esta semana con la primera toma de nutrientes específicos para esta fase: 1. Aptus Regulator (0.15 ml/L): Mi salvavidas para combatir el estrés térmico de los 28 °C y aportar ese silicio clave que dará rigidez a las ramas (vital para la Queen of Soul y la Mimosa en sus fases de estiramiento). (¡Siempre mezclado el primero en el tanque!). 2. BAC Organic Bloom (1 ml/L): Entrando con una dosis suave y orgánica para alimentar el sustrato sin saturarlo. 3. Bud Candy (2 ml/L): Empezamos a aportar carbohidratos y azúcares sencillos para dar energía a la planta y alimentar la microvida. Nota: El Bloombastic se queda guardado en el armario hasta la semana 4 o 5, cuando los cogollos estén formados y listos para engordar. La salud general es de 10/10. Las preflores están a punto de estallar en las puntas de todas las genéticas y el flujo de aire en la zona baja es perfecto. ¡Esto promete! ¡Dejad vuestras opiniones, consejos sobre estas variedades y buenas vibraciones en los comentarios! 🌿👇

Hey guys! 😀 Another update! This week my babies were still showing signs of deficiencies and I'm now almost 100% sure the culprit is Magnesium. Next week I'll add some CalMag to the mix both in water and thru some foliar application, hopefully that will help them. Besides of that Pistachio is outgrowing Matcha by a big margin, it's obvious she's still recovering or she's still somehow stunned (maybe she'll stay small till the end of her days 😢). Either I decided to defoliate both of them and on top of that do LST on Matcha... and both responded well to it, that's good! 😍 They looked super sad for a moment 😰 The new branches look nice and the wounds were I did the topping look healthy for both plants, nice! Anyway, see you all soon in my next update and I hope you all enjoy the photos/videos I took! 👋

Potted into 16 ltr pots and moved into a different tent to finish up. I will let her settle them thin out the canopy for better light penetration and to reduce humidity..

Day 15 Topping applicated ✂️✂️✂️😁

Bonjour a tous et toutes j ai enfin trouver le temp et la force de sortir les petites de la tante ;) et j ai malheureusement vue que 2 tête de ma melon gum commencer à avoir un peut de bud rot (je n ai pourtant jamais dépasser les 50% d humidité mais j doit dire que les têtes on triplé de volume en 1 semaine et pour la circulation de l air pas top ) j ai donc coupé tous cela et désinfecté aussi bien que je le pouvais, par la suite j ai augmenté l apport en air frais (rajout d 1 gros ventilateur) Autrement tous ce passe pour le mieux fin de semaine on passe au flusch 😉 voilà voilà (Ps= 2 plantes n ont pas été sortie je ne veut pas risquer quel casse vue la hauteur et le poids en bud mais promis vous les verrais bientôt

Week 3 is here and again thank you to all you fellow grower’s that have stopped by to show the love 👊🏻✌️ a massive thank you to James @RQS for trusting me with this grow. A link to their website below go check them out 🙌 . Well we are at the start of week 3. Moving along nice and steady. Starting to really struggle with RH yesterday was down to 40% for most of the day. Managed to get it back to 50%. I think I will top them all towards the end of the week but I need to see more growth before I do this. Day 17, watered last night. Started to train the first plant. I’m going onto the back one either tonight or tomorrow. Turned the heat Matt off as I think the roots were getting too warm 🤷 we carry on. ✌️👊🏻 Day 18, adjusted the ties on this lady gone in fairly hard so we shall see how she handles it. Topped the other weeding cake today too. Let’s see how they look in a couple days. ✌️🙌 Day 20, watered last night. Slow and steady happy with how they have progressed after training and topping. ✌️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ https://www.royalqueenseeds.com/uk/

Harvested at day 76. Growing Guava RF3 was easy-going the whole grow – great smell, beautiful buds, wet weight total 1400g. To celebrate the harvest, I made a video – tell me what you think. ;) VPD: 1.3 | DLI: 44 Only water.

Questa settimana ho notato un piccolo stress alle foglie della cima centrale (questo stress credo sia dovuto alle temperature elevate )
