Start of week 4. This girl stretched another 3 inches during week 3 and her bud sites continued to pack on size and take shape. She is the hungriest of the 4 plants I'm currently growing, I increased her feeding by a liter.

Schönen Sonntag euch 😊 🌿 Wochenupdate Alles läuft weiterhin stabil =) Mein Fokus liegt aktuell auf dem Messen und Erhalten der Nährstofflösung. Bulking hat begonnen und ich freu mich jedes Mal, wenn ich das Zelt aufmachen kann =D Wer den Run hier mitliest, hat mitbekommen, dass ich mich bewusst für einen relativ hohen Start-EC entschieden habe. Das lag zum einen am Bedarf der Genetiken, die sich im Bereich zwischen Middle und Heavy Feed bewegen (wobei der Cross rückblickend nicht so der schlauste Take war 😅). Zum anderen lag es daran, dass ich recht viel Reservoirvolumen habe und möglichst wenige Eingriffe geplant waren =) Ziel war es dabei, jederzeit eine Mindestverfügbarkeit zu gewährleisten. Durch dieses, nennen wir es mal, frühe Gewöhnen – natürlich immer mit Blick auf die Reaktion der Ladies, konnte ich den EC komplett stressfrei bis 2,3 anheben. Danach war für mich Schluss, weil ich ehrlich gesagt keinen Mehrwert darin erkannt habe, sie nicht verheizen wollte und vor allem die Messungen gezeigt haben, dass der selektive Wasserverbrauch zu heftige Maße angenommen hat.. Sprich: Die Lösung selbst konzentriert sich über Zeit zu stark und der EC steigt in zu großen Schritten. Ich habe also damit begonnen, ab diesem Peak-Point den reinen Wasserverbrauch – Achtung, festhalten =DD mit Cal/Mag versetzt wieder aufzufüllen. In den Messungen hat sich dabei ein klares Pattern abgezeichnet 📊 Über 24 Stunden zeigt sich ein leichter Anstieg im EC, bedingt durch primären Wasserverbrauch, bei gleichzeitig sinkendem pH-Wert. Parallel habe ich natürlich immer beobachtet, wie die Ladies auf die Verläufe reagieren =) Sobald ich sehe, dass sich dieses funktionierende Pattern minimal verschiebt, in meinem Fall ein ansteigender EC bei gleichzeitig steigendem pH, refreshe ich 30 Liter der Lösung . Nach dem 30-Liter-Refresh fällt das System wieder in sein vorheriges, stabiles Pattern zurück. Für mich ist das ein klarer Hinweis darauf, dass der Mini-Shift das erste Anzeichen eines beginnenden Ungleichgewichts war =) Ab hier geht’s wieder weiter im Loop 🔄 Ich habe hier echt für mich mitgenommen, dass ein Teil-Refresh ein gutes Diagnose-Werkzeug sein kann. Wenn sich Verläufe nur minimal anders verhalten als gewohnt und man keine klare Ursache validieren kann, kann ein moderater Refresh dabei helfen zu prüfen, ob das System wieder in sein normales Uptake-Pattern zurückfindet. Normalisiert sich das Verhalten danach, kann man unter diesen konstanten Bedingungen davon ausgehen, dass die Ursache in der Lösung lag und nicht bei den Plants oder im Klima 🌸 Pflanzenstatus & Training Endlich ein spannenderer Teil zu berichten =D Das ganze Zelt riecht einfach wie ein Traum, ich würd da am liebsten den ganzen Tag davor sitzen =)) 🌿 Blueberry Cupcake frostet schön weiter ❄️ Bildet aktuell schön homogene Sites und zeigt sich als echt solide Genetik 💪 Sie macht viel mit und lässt sich wirklich gut trainieren. Meine Freundin sagt, die Gute riecht extrem nach Blaubeere – surprise, surprise =D Ich finde eher, sie riecht wie Blaubeerquark? =D Bin wirklich gespannt. Purpz entwickelt sich auch wirklich traumhaft 😊 Schöne kleine Golfbälle, allesamt synchron im Aufbau. Die Trichombildung ist mittlerweile auf Augenhöhe mit BBCC und wirkt nur durch die hellere Pflanzenfarbe selbst weniger spektakulär ✨ Vom Geruch her sehr fruchtig-süßlich, klar in den hellen Noten, aber nicht wirklich definierbar 🍬 Meine Freundin sagt, sie stinkt nach „Gras“ 😂.. Notorious THC frostet aktuell etwas hinterher, was bei den Infos, die ich dazu habe, auch zu erwarten war. Das Blattbild irritiert mich nach wie vor ein wenig, aber da sie sich sichtbar weiterentwickelt und sonst alles sauber läuft, schiebe ich das aktuell auf die Genetik =) Deckt sich auch mit den Infos drüber. Vom Aufbau her ist sie absolut gleichauf mit ihren Schwestern. Sie riecht ziemlich kush-mäßig, musste direkt an so einen dumpfen, aber geilen OG-Smoke denken🔥 =D Meine Freundin wollte ich hiermit nicht belasten – Dessert-Strains only ist hier die Erkenntnis 😄 Guzzlerz kommt auch langsam. Ihre Sites sind recht zart im Vergleich und leider auch deutlich weniger. Sie frostet mittlerweile und ist für ihren Stand synchron gegangen =D ❄️ Ihre Schwestern sind einfach zu dominant – man sieht, das war der schwächste Seed und das zieht sich 😬 Die Ansätze sind trotzdem sehr vielversprechend und in Zukunft gehe ich das auf jeden Fall nochmal an 💚 ⚙️ System Top-Ups erhalten weiterhin die Lösung =) 🔧 1,20 kPa VPD 700–800 ppm CO₂ im Durchschnitt EC 2.000–2.100 µS/cm 1.000 PPFD Danke mal wieder für eure Zeit 😊 Auf ein gutes neues Jahr und feiert schön 🎉🥂

Week 15 still white pistils some turn brown cant wait to cut it down Fed ripen for 2 days now

8/26 she started showing flower. She has been looking very happy. Her leaves pointing high. Since I have been feeding her more her color has been looking much better. Her green is darker then it has ever been. 9/9 Fed 8 tablespoons Foxfarm Big Bloom 28 MLs Foxfarm Tiger Bloom. 9/11 Gave her a little rice water and regular water. Cloudy and some rain today. Also she is starting to smell from a distance. 9/12 4 tablespoons Foxfarm Big Bloom 12 MLs Foxfarm Tiger Bloom. Couple of cloudy days, so only 1 gallon. 9/15 Fed 1.25 teaspoons of Foxfarm Beasti Bloom. She is not growing anymore and working on her bud. So this is her first week of Beasti Bloom. She seems to be budding ok, don't have anything to compare her to. The way I trained her, she is almost all tops. She is greener than she has ever been before. Also a couple of the lower leaves that where fading a bit. The tips look are browning. The leaves where already fading, so I'm not sure if it's a little nuit burn. None of the top and newer growth leaves have any issues. Still I am going to cut back on the nuits a little. This strain is supposed to be a heavy feeder. So I'm going to cut back, but just a little. Probably drop it down to 2 feedings a week. Very nervous about this part of the grow. My autoflower grows were poor genetics. So I am counting on this plant to hold me over for the winter and even spring. Her leaves are a solid green. So I think she is good on N, so I'm thinking maybe this week I should switch over to the Foxfarm Beasti Bloom. Make sure she is solid with P and K.

Still feeding only plain pH water at the moment ,nice colors ,almost there and chop will be done soon ,nice smell ,very strong and stickyyy :)

So this is the Tear Down week. The timing of it makes it so i will need to the harvest flag in a few days when I can weight and test the plants. I have included the Cleaning, and Cutting and some Root Porn. I will make the harvest post in about 4-5 days, when I can trim these plants. There is a lot of Plant here. I got way more than I was expecting. I don't have a scale that measure this amount of plant, without taking like 10 measurements and then adding them together. So I will just be posting the dry weight. I will post the wet weight as dry weight * 1.65. Autopots: Wow, what a great product. I have been blown away by how well and how easy it was to work with them. They really did solve the watering issues. Excellent product. If you are a beginner, start with Autopots. -= Lessons Learnt =- - Overdrive the air to your Autopots. In my control plant, I used a small rectangle air stone (instead of a standard air dome). This lead to root rot and some other issues, it also put significantly less air into the water. The root rot, give the material for the Brown Algae to grow. Using a huge Air-disc-Air-Stone would be an excellent combo to mix in with the air dome itself. Something like this: https://www.amazon.ca/Pawfly-Diffuser-Suction-Hydroponics-Aquarium/dp/B01MY3AQ33 at the bottom and the air-dome on top of it, will be what I do with my next experiment. - Air stone in the reservoir. I had two instances where algae grew into the res. An air stone would have helped. It would have also helped my control plant get less root rot. Given the amount that the air-domes and air sources got engulfed, having the water have more o2 in it would have only been beneficial. - Don't grow 6 plants in a 4x4. Since my control plant was about 1/8th the size of the others, I think I could have grown 5 in the shape of a 5 (on a 6 sided dice)⚄ This placement would give a much more spaced canopy for airflow and more importantly light. The sides of some of the plants were lighter green and produced larf due to lack of light penetration. - This tent was on 19-5 schedule. This worked out very well for this strain. After every lights on, they were in the praying position, so this strain was able to recover in that 5hrs off. If I had more seeds, I would run these again, and try 20-4. I think this strain could handle it. All for all, I think I'm going to 19-5 as my default timing. This kept up a solid DLI. - Staring at .9EC (really .7 EC cause my water here is .2 EC) Then bumping up at .1 a week, until 1.6EC worked out VERY well. I experimented on this crop all the way up to 1.9EC, which burnt the tips of this plant. I think if I did this strain again, I would do 1.6EC until 3-4 weeks left then crank it to 1.9. It did plump them up when I went to 1.9, however it left them looking rough. Bulk was added though. - Sticking to 6.0PH for all of veg, and 2 weeks into flower worked great. The plant had solid and consistent color and leaf shape . The plant's did get hurt, due to some issues (as noted on the weeks). I switched to 6.5 PH in the last 3-4 weeks and it helped them recover, and plump up noticeably. -VPD. The #1 thing I focused on was VPD. I keep it .9kpa range, as best as humanly possible. It was honestly, HUGELY noticeable compared to my other grows. I know truly understand the value of properly dialed in VPD. This is the one lesson that will stick with me forever. - Super-cropping: On the plants I give the chiropractic treatment too, had much thicker stems as much larger channel internally. I did this treatment to 4 of the 6, and the 4 that had it done has larger buds and recovered from defoliation faster. TLDR; VPD is king. Super-cropping is worth the time. Keeping PH and EC dialed in were all wins. Autopots kick ass.

Day 35 - 710 Diesel Auto This girl nearly doubled in size this past week and is getting super bushy - I'm not sure what to do with all the undergrowth being that it's an autoflower I worry about stripping her - I think I'm just going to let her do her thing for now and try to control her as best I can with the trellis net and some leaf tucking. Light: Platinum LED P300 set to bloom+veg mode @ 18" above plant providing about ~50,000 LUX at the top. Watering/Nutrients: RO water w/ Advanced Nutrients pH perfect line up, Real Growers Recharge and Terpinator. Environment: 4x2 Grow Tent. Temps low of 66 - high of 80 with RH of ~50% Soil: ~6 gallons of Foxfarm Ocean Forest w/ 4 extra quarts of perlite added. If you see anywhere that you think I can improve please drop a comment – thanks for reading

good plants for hydro grows they dont stretch too much, buds need support because of the weight at the end. i run in a little calmag issue because i went overboard with the bloombooster around week 5. this caused a lockout top leaves got effected by this other then that i had a huge yield.

Rainbow melon has stolen my heart From day one the plant was bigger as nice strong stock handles low stress training well some of the biggest buds I’ve ever had. I am truly in love with this plant fade is absolutely one of the Most beautiful like an Indian summer Cannot wait to see what they come up with next💪🔥💯

Harvested today. Noticed a small amount of bud rot on a couple of top buds due to elevated humidity over the last few days. Affected tops were removed immediately. Only the very top buds were impacted, the majority of the plant was healthy and harvested without issues. Trimming done, moving on to drying. Final trimmed weight will be updated later plus a more thorough evaluation of the grow and strain. * Rest of grow info week 20

Welcome back to yet another update on my summer grow 😎🤙🏻 Things are still going smooth, a bit defoliation and nematodes was used and hopefully they will do their job in a few days😁 Started to add bloom to the mix, so let’s see how things turn out. As you can see the red spectrum is really working well, and soon I´ll add some small amounts of IR/UV daily. Looking forward to see the result 😊 _____________________________________________________________________________________________ SpectrumX LED🔥 @medicgrow 880 Watt⚡️ 2x UV/IR LED panels 💥 2.7 μmol/J🔥 Full Spectrum V1,F1,VS,FS🌈 Display with PPFD & Live spectrum Light measurement: Apogee MQ-610 & Apogee DLI-600.

bueno pues semana 10 esto se esta poniendo como nunca he tenido que subir la luz al maximo del armario recordemos que es 1.40cm empiezan formaciones de flores aplicamos gama de floracion de advanced nutrients increible como se ha puesto el armario

Hi :) it’s 10th week in my happy grow :) girls looks lovely, Smell is awesome I think terminator does it’s job :)generally I’m so proud of my girls, of course it was not without mistakes but it is my second indoor experience so still learning from mistakes :) this way we will come to perfection :) new project from fastbuds is on the way! check what’s coming! :) happy Sunday for everyone, peace! Day 66 update resulting decision of defoliation. I treated them well but in my opinion they can catch a big breath now :)

It grew so fast, I’d definitely recommend it for a first time grower, im gonna try growing a photo next time, It’s was very sweet tasting, but a bit dry think I need to learn a bit more about drying and curing before my next grow

12/13/22 Day 56: Start of the 8th week and she is doing awesome really stretching out I think roots are getting bound though really think i should have put her in 5 gal pot instead of 3 gal but o well hopefully it won't get to bad.. she is already starting to stink 😳 that's for sure.. I have never had so much trouble keeping the ph right I think its because my soil and nutrients were old 😅 😔 will be getting new stuff for next grow I think the nutes are almost 2 years old..Temps have stayed at around 74 for daytime 70 at night hoping to see some colors change but who knows with this strain.. Stay tuned!

Läuft soweit... EC langsam gesteigert 0.7 - 1.0 Zuerst runter auf 0.1 - 0.2 mit dest. Wasser dann mit calmag hoch auf 0.4 - 0.5 Dann mit 0.5 ml allinone und Startboost (ca 4 Tropfen per Liter auf gewünschten EC Wert hoch zus. 2-3 Tropfen Regulator Zur Zeit 0.8 ml/l Allinone und rest wie beschrieben ergibt EC 1.0 (ca. ab Tag 12 nach Keimung) Toppen muss ich auch Bald😬...Zelt ist nur 70x70x160 SF1000 auf 100% Anfang 2er Veg Woche ca. 74 cm Abstand...ca. 350 Mikromol

Hello. I'll be harvesting tomorrow. Just a last couple of pictures for the diary. Started flowering on June 1 and Harvesting on August 5, - 10 weeks of flowering. Didn't close up the tent for the last 3 weeks. They have got 4 good flushes and are ready. Thanks for looking in. Chuck.
