the girls are doing very well🌱, they like their diet, and they are gaining weight well💪 ... we are at the beginning of the sixth week of flowering🌻 and going for the highs👊now I am waiting to see the frost arrive on these girls day 40 of bloom🌻 things are going perfectly, the girls 🌱are gaining weight just the way we like it .... I intend for the first time to use Ripen della Ghe to force the end of the cycle👨‍🍳, since I am left with the empty cans in a bit of a hurry. I think I will open a question for advice from those who have already used the Final phase of the Ghe .... good growth everyone!👨‍🌾 see you next time my friends ...💚

Grow log entries are usually posted 3 weeks later and are for my learning reference. ««| Introduction - Week 10 Summary - Ensign's log, stardate 17511.6, Pretty smooth week in the garden! For the most part the garden has been on auto and the ladies are raging with healthy growth! Veg tent has been healthy with growth and the canopy is already full! Also gnats are gone! Originally was planning to re-string the scrog frame, but defoliated both plants instead. Will re-string next week! Maybe. Onwards to next week Ensign!

Da oltre venti anni che coltivo e sono sempre più felice della qualità proposta da queste magnifiche banche semi! Complimenti di cuore a chi ha selezionato e creato queste varietà autofiorenti. Crescono rapidamente,resistono agli afidi e alcune sfiorano il metro di altezza, tutte insieme sembrano una mini foresta! Iniziano a fiorire gradualmente ed essendo molto diramate tutte è spettacolare nel vederle! Appare la prima resina e sono in ottima salute. Sono felice fino ad adesso perché se guardate foto e video vi rendete conto che qui nel centro Italia in outdoor biologico abbiamo il migliore clima che si possa desiderare anche se questo 2023 fino a metà maggio ha piovuto tantissimo e ci sono stati sbalzi di temperatura, ciò non è stato un problema per queste varietà così forti e abbondanti! Adesso la magia è iniziata, il caldo è arrivato e non vedo l'ora di vederle piene di infiorescenze tutte! Si procede felicemente, un abbraccio a tutti!

A stackin we will go a stackin we will go. Well she is doing great and really putting on some serious mass. I grew this auto under 24 hour light a day for the first 7 weeks and the result was zero stretch between nodes. She just stacked solid colas all the way around. I'm really impressed by how big and solid this autos buds are. Today was my first inspection of trichome development and all are cloudy from the top of the plant to the very bottom along with about 90% red and curled in pistils. So I'm thinking at least two more weeks or until half the trichomes are ambered up what ever comes first. Can't wait to try this strain because she is really starting to develop a strong cheesy skunk smell and her trichome production is on overdrive. Happy growing, Cheers!!!

girl, from the beginning she was watered with water from the tap, the value of which is almost 350ppm. and a lot of lime, which prevents me from growing it bigger, but I'm happy with the result :) it's a small pot and only 50 w :) the flowers look very beautiful and sticky :) super ​

All good and looking happy. Started some LST. I was undecided if I was going to train these girls but decided to do it. I gave a 1/4 feeding of Advanced Nutrients Sensi Cal Mag extra. Now that I've had a good watering schedule down with slight dry back they have been surging with growth! One starting to flower fast and the other is right behind it.

If you wonder about my home made scrog net, its made from 18mm hot water pvc tube, some screws and rope 😅 Watering when needed, every other watering I used Fox Farm Big Bloom, Grow Big & Tiger Bloom

This Blue Dream grow was my best looking one. Can't wait until it's dry to sample it. The P1 clone turned a peach color, and the P2 clone turned purple.

8/25 1215AM MONDAY MOTHER FUCKERS!!! AMINO GENIUS, YUP!!!!!! 220am. Amino Acid Transporters in Plants: Identification and Function. https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC7466100/ 8/26 515am Advanced Nutrients Cal / Mag worked!! The stalks are stiffer and less florescent green, very good. 6 AM I gave everybody water at one and a half mL per liter each of advanced nutrients bloom pH 6 everyone looks good.👍. 8/26 1139am. Heavy defoliation worked out nicely. Light feeding and the Cal /Mag is already working. THREE COLA??? Now wondering if 3 cola is the best way to get QUALITY in on gallon. It's SO much easier to dry when it's just a single colas no mess. 8/27 1223AM. They look great. I look like death. pretty sure I smell like it too.

Massive resin and flower growth. The top of Apricot is flowering. The Cal /Mag did its magic, I wont need it again. When I noticed florecent green stalks I knew it was time for Cal/Mag as Grok said the Aminos can inhibit their uptake. 827 2 PM I did a water with one and a half mL per liter of advanced nutrients connoisseur bloom. I added a couple of supplements. I added Purpinator 1 mL in 2 L not much very light nutrients. 8/28 206am.

"L-glutamine (Gln), despite its nutritional importance, is difficult to use as a component of solutions, due to its instability with heat and acids. The Gln-containing dipeptide, AlaGln, overcomes these drawbacks and is expected to be used in medical or nutritional fields. It is branded as Sustamine and is being used in several products." 222am https://www.kyowahakko-bio.co.jp/english/rd/aminoscope/ Info on Aminos 230AM 15 MINUTES TIL FRANK SINATRAS ONE FOR MY BABY...THE QUARTER TO 3 SONG..... https://www.esbnyc.com/about/live-cam MAKE SURE YOU HAVE A VIEW OF NYC ON THE SCREEN ...ITS A WHOLE THEME....

RESIN QUALITY BETTER THEN IVE EVER HAD!!! IT IS LIKE VEVETY FROSTING!!!! SMOOTH, NOT DRY AND CRYSTALY LIKE USUAL!!! ON COOKIE APPLE 1 GALLON 3 COLA. 8/29 1243am Re-evaluating this tonight added 1ml Purpinator last time to add P & K without N, having great results!!!! **Biostimulant Stack** (per 2 L solution): - **Proline (400 mg, 200 mg/L)**: - **Role**: Osmoprotectant; reduces oxidative stress (ROS), enhances drought/salinity tolerance, and stabilizes enzymes. Supports terpene/cannabinoid production by protecting cells during flower stress. - **Dose Evaluation**: 200 mg/L (~1.74 mM) is within the effective range (100-300 mg/L) from plant stress studies. Cannabis trials suggest it mitigates heat/light stress, enhancing resin quality. Good dose for autos in flower. - **Setria L-Glutathione (250 mg, 125 mg/L)**: - **Role**: Antioxidant; scavenges ROS, protects photosynthesis, and detoxifies heavy metals. Enhances yield and bud quality by reducing oxidative damage during flowering. - **Dose Evaluation**: 125 mg/L is safe and effective (100-300 mg/L in plant studies). Aligns with maize trials showing yield protection under stress. Well-suited for autos without risking buildup. - **L-Glycine (500 mg, 250 mg/L)**: - **Role**: Precursor for glutathione and proteins; detoxifies heavy metals, supports root health, and enhances nutrient uptake (e.g., Ca). Reduces toxicity in contaminated soils and boosts flower resilience. - **Dose Evaluation**: 250 mg/L is within the effective range (100-500 mg/L). Higher than your previous mix (100 mg/L), but still safe; supports GSH synthesis and complements glutathione. - **TMG (Trimethylglycine, 400 mg, 200 mg/L)**: - **Role**: Methyl donor and osmoprotectant; enhances heat/drought tolerance, membrane stability, and terpene gene expression.

CHANGE: 🚨 INCREASE...(DONT FEEL LIKE SPLITTING THE CAPSULE OPEN) L-Glycine (1000 mg in 2L, 500 mg/L) 8/29 234am #### Combined Effects This mix is well-tailored for autoflower cannabis in the flowering phase, balancing low-N bloom nutrients with biostimulants to maximize bud quality and resilience: - **Bud Development and Yield**: Connoisseur Bloom’s P-K focus drives dense bud formation, while proline, glutathione, and TMG protect against flower-stage stresses (e.g., high light, heat), potentially increasing yield by 15-30% (e.g., 150-300 g/plant in hydro/coco). Glycine enhances nutrient uptake, supporting larger calyxes. - **Terpene and Cannabinoid Quality**: TMG and proline upregulate terpene synthesis (e.g., limonene, myrcene), enhancing aroma and resin. Glutathione reduces oxidative damage, preserving cannabinoid stability (THCA/CBDA). No EAA in this mix avoids N-driven potency reduction. - **Stress Resilience**: Glutathione and proline scavenge ROS, while TMG and glycine bolster osmotic and metal stress tolerance. This is critical for autoflowers, which are prone to stunting in flower under environmental swings. - **Nutrient Efficiency**: Glycine and TMG enhance uptake of Connoisseur’s chelated nutrients (e.g., Ca, Mg), reducing N needs by improving nitrogen use efficiency (NUE). This aligns with your goal of reducing N fertilizer in commercial farming. - **Microbial Support**: Glycine fosters beneficial microbes, synergizing with Connoisseur’s organics for root health in coco/soil."" 8/29 "What is the equation for amino acids?

Thank you for sharing the details of your foliar spray mix for your autoflower cannabis grow. You’re using a combination of **proline (400 mg)**, **Setria glutathione (250 mg)**, **L-glycine (1000 mg)**, **TMG (400 mg)**, and **L-glutamine (100 mg)** in a 2 L solution, applied as a foliar spray. This mix is amino acid-focused, aligning with your previous interest in essential amino acids and nutrient optimization for cannabis, as well as your questions about flushing agents and personal supplementation. I’ll evaluate the potential benefits, risks, and considerations of this foliar spray for your autoflower cannabis plants, focusing on how these compounds affect growth, stress resistance, and bud quality, particularly given the unique needs of autoflowers (e.g., shorter life cycle, sensitivity to nutrient stress). I’ll also address how this spray complements your earlier nutrient mix and provide practical recommendations. ### Breakdown of Your Foliar Spray Mix (2 L Solution) Let’s analyze each component, its concentration, and its role in cannabis cultivation when applied foliarly to autoflowers: 1. **Proline (400 mg in 2 L = 200 mg/L)**: - **Role**: Proline is an amino acid that acts as an osmoprotectant and antioxidant, helping plants manage stress (e.g., drought, high light, nutrient imbalances). - **Benefits for Autoflowers**: - Enhances stress resistance, crucial for autoflowers under intense indoor lighting or environmental fluctuations. - Supports pollen development and flowering, potentially increasing bud set during the short autoflower bloom phase (4–6 weeks). - Promotes cell wall strength, improving plant vigor and resilience. - **Considerations**: At 200 mg/L, this is a moderate dose, effective for stress mitigation without risking nutrient overload. Autoflowers are sensitive to overfeeding, so this is appropriate. 2. **Setria Glutathione (250 mg in 2 L = 125 mg/L)**: - **Role**: Glutathione is a powerful antioxidant tripeptide (glutamate, cysteine, glycine) that protects plant cells from oxidative stress caused by high light, heat, or nutrient imbalances. - **Benefits for Autoflowers**: - Reduces oxidative damage in leaves, preserving photosynthesis efficiency, which is critical for autoflowers’ rapid growth cycle. - Enhances stress tolerance, particularly under high-intensity lighting or CO₂ supplementation common in indoor grows. - May improve terpene and cannabinoid production by protecting metabolic pathways during flowering. - **Considerations**: Glutathione is not a standard foliar spray component, but at 125 mg/L, it’s a low, experimental dose. Limited research exists on its direct foliar application in cannabis, but it’s likely safe and may complement proline and glycine’s antioxidant effects. 3. **L-Glycine (1000 mg in 2 L = 500 mg/L)**: - **Role**: Glycine supports chlorophyll synthesis, protein production, and nutrient chelation, enhancing photosynthesis and growth. - **Benefits for Autoflowers**: - Boosts photosynthesis, leading to greener leaves and faster growth, critical for autoflowers’ short vegetative phase (2–4 weeks). - Chelates micronutrients (e.g., zinc, iron), improving foliar nutrient uptake, though it may reduce calcium/iron absorption (as noted in your earlier question). - Supports terpene synthesis, enhancing bud aroma and flavor. - **Considerations**: Your previous nutrient mix used 500 mg/L glycine, and you asked about increasing to 500 mg/L (possibly a typo or volume confusion). At 500 mg/L, this is a high but effective dose for foliar application, though excessive nitrogen from glycine could delay flowering if overused in late bloom. 4. **TMG (Trimethylglycine/Betaine, 400 mg in 2 L = 200 mg/L)**: - **Role**: TMG is an osmoprotectant and methyl donor, enhancing stress tolerance and metabolic efficiency. - **Benefits for Autoflowers**: - Protects against environmental stress (e.g., high EC, temperature swings), improving resilience in hydroponic or indoor setups. - Supports photosynthesis and nutrient uptake by stabilizing proteins and membranes, beneficial for autoflowers’ rapid growth. - May enhance terpene production indirectly via metabolic support. - **Considerations**: At 200 mg/L, this is a moderate dose, lower than your previous 500 mg/L, reducing the risk of nutrient burn while maintaining stress protection. 5. **L-Glutamine (100 mg in 2 L = 50 mg/L)**: - **Role**: Glutamine is a nitrogen transport amino acid, supporting chlorophyll synthesis and photosynthesis. - **Benefits for Autoflowers**: - Promotes lush vegetative growth and greener leaves, ideal for the early stages of autoflowers. - Enhances stress tolerance via glutathione production (synergizing with Setria glutathione). - Supports bud development by providing nitrogen for protein synthesis. - **Considerations**: At 50 mg/L, this is a low dose (down from 250 mg/L in your previous mix), minimizing nitrogen overload risks in flowering autoflowers, which are sensitive to excess nitrogen. ### Overall Effects on Autoflower Cannabis - **Vegetative Phase (Weeks 1–3)**: - This foliar spray is well-suited for the vegetative stage of autoflowers, as glycine, glutamine, and proline promote photosynthesis, leaf growth, and stress resistance. TMG and glutathione further protect against oxidative stress from high-intensity lighting or nutrient fluctuations, common in indoor grows. - The low nitrogen content (primarily from glycine and glutamine) supports vigorous growth without overwhelming autoflowers, which require less nitrogen than photoperiod strains. - **Flowering Phase (Weeks 4–8/10)**: - The spray supports terpene production (via glycine, proline) and stress resilience, enhancing bud quality and aroma. Glutathione’s antioxidant properties may protect cannabinoid synthesis pathways. - However, glycine (500 mg/L) and glutamine contribute nitrogen, which could delay bud ripening or reduce THC if overused in late flowering. Previous research (from your amino acid question) showed amino acids can reduce THCA, so caution is needed after week 5–6. - Autoflowers have a short flowering window, so foliar sprays should be minimized or stopped in the last 2–3 weeks to avoid nutrient residues affecting bud flavor. - **Stress Resistance**: - The combination of proline, TMG, and glutathione is highly effective for protecting autoflowers from stress (e.g., high EC, heat, light intensity), which is critical given their sensitivity to environmental changes. - Foliar application ensures rapid uptake, bypassing root zone issues in hydroponics or coco. ### Synergy with Your Previous Nutrient Mix Your earlier nutrient mix (Connoisseur A/B, NO precursors, amino acids, methylene blue) was root-fed and nitrogen-heavy, complementing this foliar spray: - **Complementary Effects**: The foliar spray’s focus on stress protection (proline, TMG, glutathione) and photosynthesis (glycine, glutamine) enhances the root mix’s growth and bloom support. Foliar application targets leaf health, while root feeding supports overall nutrient uptake. - **Methylene Blue Omission**: Excluding methylene blue from the foliar spray is wise, as its effects on plants are unproven, and foliar application risks leaf staining or phytotoxicity. Your root mix’s low dose (2.5 mg/L) is experimental but safer. - **Nitrogen Balance**: The foliar spray’s lower nitrogen (glutamine 50 mg/L, glycine 500 mg/L) balances the root mix’s high nitrogen (glutamine 250 mg/L, glycine 500 mg/L, EAAs, L-arginine), reducing the risk of overfeeding autoflowers. ### Potential Risks and Considerations 1. **Nitrogen Overload in Flowering**: - **Risk**: Glycine (500 mg/L) and glutamine (50 mg/L) contribute nitrogen, which could delay flowering or produce leafy buds in autoflowers if applied heavily in late bloom (weeks 6–8). - **Solution**: Limit foliar sprays to once weekly in early flowering (weeks 4–5) and stop by week 6–7 to focus on bud ripening. Use only water or a flushing agent (e.g., FloraKleen, as you preferred) in the final 1–2 weeks. 2. **Nutrient Imbalance**: - **Risk**: Amino acids (glycine, glutamine) can chelate micronutrients, potentially reducing calcium and iron uptake (as noted in your earlier question). Autoflowers are prone to deficiencies due to their fast cycle. - **Solution**: Monitor for calcium/iron deficiency (yellowing leaves, interveinal chlorosis) and add a foliar calmag supplement (e.g., 1 mL/L CaliMagic) if needed. Your root-fed Connoisseur A/B provides some micronutrients, but foliar sprays bypass roots. 3. **Glutathione’s Experimental Nature**: - **Risk**: Glutathione is not a standard foliar nutrient for cannabis, and its efficacy at 125 mg/L is unstudied. It’s likely safe but may not provide significant benefits beyond proline and TMG’s stress protection. - **Solution**: Treat glutathione as an experiment. Compare sprayed plants to unsprayed ones for 2 weeks to assess improvements in leaf color or bud quality. Discontinue if no clear benefit. 4. **Overapplication of Foliar Spray**: - **Risk**: Foliar sprays can cause leaf burn or mold if applied too frequently or in high humidity. Autoflowers’ dense canopies increase mold risk in late flowering. - **Solution**: Apply early in the day, ensure good airflow, and spray only 1–2 times per week. Use a fine mist sprayer to avoid drenching leaves. 5. **EC and pH**: - **Risk**: The spray’s low concentrations (total ~1.15 g/L) are unlikely to spike EC, but combined with your root mix, monitor overall nutrient strength. The pH (previously 5.9) is suitable for foliar uptake (5.5–6.5). - **Solution**: Test spray pH (aim for 5.8–6.2) and root zone EC (1.0–1.5 mS/cm in veg, 1.5–2.0 mS/cm in bloom) to avoid overfeeding. ### Recommendations for Your Autoflower Grow 1. **Application Timing**: - **Vegetative Phase (Weeks 1–3)**: Apply the foliar spray 1–2 times weekly to boost photosynthesis and stress resistance. The mix is ideal for autoflowers’ rapid vegetative growth. - **Early Flowering (Weeks 4–5)**: Reduce to once weekly to support terpene production and bud set, but avoid excessive nitrogen from glycine/glutamine. - **Late Flowering (Weeks 6–8/10)**: Stop foliar sprays by week 6–7 to prevent nitrogen residues and ensure clean buds. Use FloraKleen (5–10 mL/gal) for a final flush (1–2 weeks) to clear nutrients, as you preferred over SledgeHammer. 2. **Monitor Plant Response**: - Watch for signs of nitrogen excess (dark green leaves, clawing, delayed flowering) or deficiencies (yellowing, spotting). Autoflowers are sensitive, so adjust spray frequency if issues arise. - Compare glutathione-sprayed plants to controls to assess its value. If no noticeable improvement (e.g., greener leaves, better buds), simplify the mix to proline, glycine, and TMG. 3. **Complementary Root Feeding**: - Continue your root mix (Connoisseur A/B, NO precursors, etc.) but reduce nitrogen-heavy components (e.g., glutamine, EAAs) in flowering to balance the foliar spray’s glycine/glutamine. Aim for 2–3 mL/L Connoisseur A/B in bloom. - Add a bloom booster (e.g., Advanced Nutrients Bud Candy, 1–2 mL/L) in weeks 4–6 to enhance terpenes and sugars without excess nitrogen. 4. **Foliar Spray Best Practices**: - Spray early in the light cycle to allow drying and prevent mold. - Use a fine mist to lightly coat leaves, avoiding runoff. - Ensure pH is 5.8–6.2 for optimal foliar uptake. - Maintain good airflow and humidity below 50% in flowering to prevent bud rot. 5. **Glutathione Experiment**: - Since glutathione is unproven in cannabis, apply to a few plants and track differences in growth, leaf health, or bud quality. If benefits are unclear after 2 weeks, consider excluding it to reduce costs. ### Conclusion Your amino acid-focused foliar spray (proline 200 mg/L, glutathione 125 mg/L, glycine 500 mg/L, TMG 200 mg/L, glutamine 50 mg/L) is well-suited for autoflower cannabis, particularly in the vegetative phase, where it boosts photosynthesis, stress resistance, and growth. In early flowering, it supports terpene production and bud set, but caution is needed in late flowering to avoid nitrogen buildup from glycine and glutamine, which could reduce THC or affect bud flavor. Glutathione is an experimental addition, likely safe but unproven, so monitor its effects. Pair this spray with your root-fed nutrient mix, using FloraKleen for flushing, and adjust based on plant response to optimize your autoflower yield and quality. If you can share more details (e.g., autoflower strain, growth stage, hydroponic vs. coco, lighting setup), I can refine the recommendations further. I can also search X or recent studies for grower experiences with foliar amino acids or glutathione in cannabis.

Thanks for the update! It’s great that you’re adding **General Hydroponics FloraNectar FruitnFusion Sweetener** to your root-fed nutrient mix for your autoflower cannabis grow, especially since you don’t have **Advanced Nutrients Bud Candy** but want to incorporate the sugar-based bloom booster I recommended (1–2 mL/L) to enhance terpenes and sugars. Your current mix includes **Advanced Nutrients Connoisseur Bloom A & B (1.5 mL/L each, total 3 mL/L)**, **proline (200 mg/L)**, **Setria glutathione (125 mg/L)**, **L-glycine (500 mg/L)**, **TMG (200 mg/L)**, and **L-glutamine (50 mg/L)** in a 2 L solution, and you’ve noted success with a similar foliar spray. I’ll evaluate the addition of **FloraNectar FruitnFusion** at 1–2 mL/L to this mix, focusing on its benefits, potential risks, and considerations for your autoflower grow, particularly in the context of flowering (since you’re using Connoisseur Bloom A & B). I’ll also ensure compatibility with your mix and provide tailored recommendations, factoring in your preference for **FloraKleen** for flushing and the autoflowers’ sensitivity. ### Overview of FloraNectar FruitnFusion Sweetener - **Composition**: FloraNectar FruitnFusion is a carbohydrate-based supplement containing cane sugar, molasses, and malt syrup, with added potassium, magnesium, and natural fruit flavorings. It’s designed to enhance sweetness, aroma, and flavor in buds by providing energy for secondary metabolite production (e.g., terpenes, flavonoids). - **Purpose**: Boosts terpene and sugar content in flowers, improves bud flavor, and supports microbial activity in soil (though less relevant in hydroponics/coco). It’s marketed for hydroponic and soil grows, compatible with General Hydroponics’ nutrient lines. - **Recommended Dose**: General Hydroponics suggests 1–2 tsp/gal (1.3–2.6 mL/L) during flowering, aligning with my prior recommendation of 1–2 mL/L (based on Bud Candy’s dosing). Your choice of 1–2 mL/L is appropriate. ### Effects of Adding FloraNectar FruitnFusion (1–2 mL/L) to Your Mix #### Benefits for Autoflower Cannabis 1. **Enhanced Terpene and Flavor Profile**: - The sugars (cane sugar, molasses, malt syrup) provide an energy source for terpene and flavonoid synthesis, improving bud aroma and flavor. This complements the terpene-boosting effects of glycine, proline, and glutamine in your mix, which may increase monoterpenes like limonene and β-myrcene (as noted in your earlier amino acid question). - Autoflowers have a short flowering phase (4–6 weeks), so FloraNectar’s sugars can maximize terpene production in weeks 4–6, enhancing bud quality and market appeal. 2. **Energy for Bud Development**: - Sugars fuel metabolic processes during flowering, supporting resin production and bud density. This synergizes with Connoisseur Bloom B’s high phosphorus/potassium, which drives bud growth. - May offset potential THC reduction from amino acids (e.g., glycine, glutamine), as noted in prior research, by boosting secondary metabolites. 3. **Nutrient Support**: - FloraNectar provides small amounts of potassium and magnesium, which support flower development and chlorophyll function. This complements Connoisseur A/B’s micronutrients, helping prevent deficiencies (e.g., magnesium-related chlorosis) that amino acids like glycine may exacerbate by chelating calcium/iron. 4. **Synergy with Your Mix**: - **Amino Acids (Glycine, Proline, Glutamine)**: These enhance photosynthesis and terpene production, and FloraNectar’s sugars provide additional energy to amplify these effects, potentially leading to sweeter, more aromatic buds. - **Glutathione and TMG**: These support stress resistance, protecting plants during the energy-intensive flowering phase. FloraNectar’s sugars may enhance microbial activity (in soil) or metabolic efficiency (in hydroponics), complementing TMG’s osmoprotectant role. - **Connoisseur A/B**: The nutrient base provides NPK and micronutrients, while FloraNectar adds a carbohydrate boost without excessive nitrogen, ideal for autoflowers in bloom. #### Potential Risks and Considerations 1. **EC Spike**: - **Risk**: FloraNectar’s sugars and minerals (potassium, magnesium) increase electrical conductivity (EC), especially when added to your nutrient-heavy mix (Connoisseur A/B 3 mL/L + amino acids ~1.15 g/L). Autoflowers are sensitive to high EC, risking nutrient burn (tip browning, leaf curl). - **Solution**: Start with 1 mL/L FloraNectar to keep EC in the safe range (1.5–2.0 mS/cm for flowering autoflowers). Measure EC after mixing and dilute (e.g., reduce Connoisseur to 1 mL/L each) if above 2.0 mS/cm. 2. **Nitrogen Overload in Late Flowering**: - **Risk**: Your mix’s glycine (500 mg/L) and glutamine (50 mg/L) contribute nitrogen, which could delay bud ripening or reduce THC in late flowering (weeks 6–8), as amino acids may lower THCA (per prior research). FloraNectar’s low nitrogen content won’t exacerbate this, but the overall mix requires caution. - **Solution**: Reduce glycine to 250 mg/L and glutamine to 25 mg/L in weeks 6–8, and stop all nutrients (including FloraNectar) for the final 1–2 weeks, using FloraKleen (5–10 mL/gal) for flushing. 3. **Calcium/Iron Deficiencyល: **Risk**: Amino acids (glycine, glutamine) may chelate calcium and iron, potentially causing deficiencies. FloraNectar’s magnesium and potassium help, but calcium uptake could still be limited. - **Solution**: Monitor for deficiency signs (yellowing, interveinal chlorosis) and add a calmag supplement (e.g., 1 mL/L CaliMagic) if needed, especially in hydroponics/coco. 4. **Glutathione’s Experimental Role**: - **Risk**: Glutathione (125 mg/L) is unproven for root feeding, though your foliar spray’s success suggests benefits. Its root uptake efficacy is unclear. - **Solution**: Continue monitoring plant response (e.g., bud size, leaf health) and compare to untreated plants. Discontinue if no additional improvement is seen. 5. **Sugar-Related Microbial Issues**: - **Risk**: In soil or high-humidity hydroponic systems, FloraNectar’s sugars could promote unwanted microbial growth (e.g., root zone bacteria) if over-applied. - **Solution**: Ensure proper aeration and avoid overwatering. Use FloraKleen periodically (5 mL/gal every 3–4 weeks) to maintain a clean root zone. ### Recommendations for Your Autoflower Grow 1. **FloraNectar Dosing**: - Start with **1 mL/L** (2 mL in 2 L) to avoid EC spikes, especially with Connoisseur A/B and amino acids. Increase to 2 mL/L in weeks 4–5 if plants tolerate it (no burn signs) and EC remains below 2.0 mS/cm. - Apply during early to mid-flowering (weeks 4–6) to maximize terpene and sugar production, stopping by week 7–8 for flushing. 2. **Growth Stage Adjustments**: - **Vegetative Phase (Weeks 1–3)**: Your mix is suitable, but FloraNectar is less critical here, as sugars are most beneficial in flowering. Consider reserving it for bloom to save costs. - **Early Flowering (Weeks 4–5)**: Use the full mix with FloraNectar (1–2 mL/L) 2–3 times weekly to boost bud development and aroma. - **Late Flowering (Weeks 6–8/10)**: Reduce glycine (250 mg/L), glutamine (25 mg/L), and FloraNectar (0.5–1 mL/L) to minimize nitrogen and sugar residues. Flush with FloraKleen (5–10 mL/gal) for 1–2 weeks with plain water (pH 5.8–6.2) to ensure clean buds. 3. **EC and pH Monitoring**: - Check EC (1.5–2.0 mS/cm in bloom) after adding FloraNectar, as sugars and minerals may increase it. Adjust Connoisseur A/B or amino acids if EC exceeds 2.0 mS/cm. - Maintain pH at 5.8–6.2 for hydroponic/coco root uptake, consistent with your prior 5.9 pH. 4. **Complementary Practices**: - **Calmag Addition**: If calcium/iron deficiencies appear (yellowing, spotting), add 1 mL/L CaliMagic to the mix or as a foliar spray to counter amino acid chelation. - **Foliar Spray Integration**: Continue your amino acid foliar spray (1x weekly) alongside root feeding to maximize stress resistance and terpene production, but stop foliar sprays by week 6 to avoid residues. - **Flushing**: Use FloraKleen (5 mL/gal) every 3–4 weeks and for the final flush (10 mL/gal for 2–3 days, then water) to clear sugars, amino acids, and salts, ensuring smooth-burning buds. 5. **Glutathione Evaluation**: - Given your foliar spray’s success, glutathione may be contributing to plant health. Compare buds from plants watered with and without glutathione to assess its impact on potency or yield. If no clear benefit after 2 weeks, simplify the mix to reduce costs. ### Conclusion Adding **General Hydroponics FloraNectar FruitnFusion** at 1–2 mL/L to your root-fed mix (Connoisseur A/B 3 mL/L, proline 200 mg/L, glutathione 125 mg/L, glycine 500 mg/L, TMG 200 mg/L, glutamine 50 mg/L) is an excellent choice for your autoflower cannabis grow, enhancing terpene production, bud flavor, and flowering energy. It complements the amino acids’ stress resistance and terpene-boosting effects, synergizing with Connoisseur A/B’s bloom nutrients. Start with 1 mL/L to avoid EC spikes, reduce nitrogen-heavy components (glycine, glutamine) in late flowering (weeks 6–8), and flush with FloraKleen to ensure clean buds. Monitor for nutrient imbalances and evaluate glutathione’s role. If you provide details (e.g., strain, growth stage, hydroponic vs. coco), I can further tailor the schedule. I can also search X for grower feedback on FloraNectar with amino acids.
