1 OG kush Shows Sings of Nitrogen Toxicity (cut most leafs off) Soil PH: 5.7 - 6.8 (lowest and highest reading) Flushed all plants with microrayza fungi Watering with organic bio activated tea every 3 days (potassium = algae, bokashi = nitrogen, worm hummus and molasses) Day 28 to 35 Day 32: Accidently cut off main stem of a very healthy OG kush plant, let´s see how it bounces back in a few days. Perhaps I just HST´d by accident Day: 32: Some of my autoflower GSC already started to flower Day 32: 3 OG kush plants are weak, one has a weak stem, second one had a problem since seedling (grew into the ground), third one i cut off main stem by accident Day 34: OG kush plant was removed after many tries of getting it back to its feet

I’ve spent the last six days recalibrating my grow room. It feels more like a lab now because I am doing a lot of experiments with different variables and this week I have learned an awful lot. After pushing the environment to its absolute breaking point, I had to balance what my eyes were seeing against raw data to identify exactly where the Traffic Jam was occurring. I got so excited at the ability to control proteins in a plant with light spectrum I did the usual thing I do I drove them to their limits. Maximum photons (and beyond) in an environment where the plant just works like a suction funnel with a VPD of 1.6 kPa. What I forgot is that in my organic setup, the bottleneck is the speed the microbial life can create immobile nutrients. Under any normal conditions, the Biotabs 'just add water' method is more than capable of keeping up, but I had to be that guy and push them with 950 µmol of whites. By the time my Emerson burst came on, I was hitting them with around 1150 µmol, not counting the drain from the UV-B! This, on ambient, is just too much to ask; the plants used up all the calcium available, and my microbial life was unable to keep up. This is good to know, as if I wish to grow at this rate later, I will know what I need to add to facilitate that. I'm still blown away by spectral steering and the way proteins in a plant cell work. Grows are not normally still this fun at this stage. ________________________________________ 1. The "950 µmol" Mistake & Conclusion • The Error: I was running the main rig at 950 µmol, but with 4 strips of DRFR engaged, I was hitting a total ePAR of 1150 µmol. • The Failure: This intensity, paired with an aggressive 1.6 kPa VPD, outran the plant's metabolic capacity under ambient conditions. • The Result: 'Pistil Frizzle' on the crown of the Triple Cheese—the delicate stigmas literally toasted under the radiant load. 2. The Calcium Benchmark & The "Traffic Jam" • The Action: I noticed rusty, necrotic spots scattered across the leaf surfaces. • The Conclusion: The plants weren't 'low' on Calcium; the Biotabs microbial factory couldn't mine it fast enough to keep up with the 1150 µmol demand. I have officially flagged an image as my 'Calcium Benchmark' to track this in future runs. 3. The attempt to fix • The Adjustment: I have lowered the light ceiling to 800 µmol (targeting a DLI of 31–36) and stabilized VPD between 1.2 and 1.3 kPa. • The Rationale: This matches the 'spending' of the plant to the 'income' of my organic microbes, allowing the nutrient highway to move smoothly without crashing at the leaf tips. 4. Emergency Recovery: Bactrex & Bio PK • The Action: To clear the jam, I introduced a targeted top-feed of Bactrex and Bio PK to the Cheese. • The Goal: Boosting the microbial workforce and providing a direct PK source to support the Week 5 bulk while the Calcium delivery recovers. 5. Rhizosphere & Water Management • New decontamination for my 10L res refills: 10 drops of ExoThrive Neutralise, 5 minutes of violent blending, and an 8-hour air stone session • The Goal: To strip all residual chlorine and chloramines from my London tap water to protect my Bactrex and Mycotrex factory workers. • Future Intent: Researching the Water2 Pod 2.0 with a Fluoride filter to automate this and ensure consistent, medical-grade hydration. 6. Pot Size & Substrate Logic • The Constraint: Bigger pots are not happening • The Solution: To compensate for the smaller volume, I will increase Bactrex frequency and explore high concentrations of Gypsum (20g per 10L) in future mixes to increase mineral density without changing the footprint. Summary: I pushed for maximum push and hit a wall. By respecting the biological limits of a just add water system, I’m moving toward Environmental Harmony where every photon is used rather than wasted as a stressor. Been a great week for learning. Thanks for passing. Grow well ..

Smoke report: High as a mountain. A very heady euphoric high. Uplifting and vitalizing, this strain is ideal for anyone looking to have great conversations at a social event or for some creative writing or drawing. Plant Appearance: Staying true to her Sativa heritage, this plant will grow tall with a large internodal spacing with plants attaining 1.3m in height. Cali' Snow develops a large main cola with some side branches, all densely frosty crystals, from the sugar leaves to the buds themselves. *The above Strain Information/Description courtesy of FastBuds __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ THE SETUP: ~Planted into Jiffy Peat Pellets that were hydrated with de-chlorinated water with SuperThrive added then ph'd to 6.0 @ 80℉ ~Grown 100% organic in 10g fabric pots with Mother Earth 70/30 Coco/Perlite medium amended with 2tbs/g of Down To Earth 4-4-4 / 2 cups/g of Earthworm Castings / 1tbs/g of Dr. Earth Flower Girl 3-9-4, 1tbs/g of Dr. Earth Bat Guano, 3/4 cup of Down To Earth Azomite and 1 tsp/g Down To Earth Fish Bone Meal. ~24hr light cycle during Germination / 19/5 light cycle for Vegetation and 12/12 for Flower ~Straight water ph'd @ 6.2-6.8 when needed and weekly Compost Tea's. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ WEEKLY UPDATES: 9/6- Day 39 of flower and harvest time is fast approaching with her trichomes, which are now checked daily, maturing rapidly being 80% milky now with the remaining being clear. Daily watering's continue with 1g of straight de-chlorinated water ph'd to 6.7 @74℉ and also I'm turning her pot 1/4 turn daily as well. 9/8- Well, her trichomes are right about where I like them to be and she's ready for 48hrs. in the dark before I chop and hang her to dry for 10-12 days. I'm watering her with 1g of straight de-chlorinated water ph'd to 6.7 @74℉ and will continue to water her while she's in the dark (cannabis continues to carry on with it's growth processes even while in the dark) so that her medium doesn't completely dry out. Keeping her watered will also help to extend her drying time to that ideal 10-12 day target. This should be some epic smoke as her buds are absolutely crystalized with trichomes and her smell is AMAZING! 😛💚 9/10- Well she's been in the dark for 24hrs. now with 24 more to go. I'm keeping temperatures in the low to mid 60's℉ and the RH @ 45%. Tomorrow is 'Chop Day'! I'll be taking some pic's of her when she comes out of the dark and during harvest...Stay tuned, this is some 🔥! I am continuing to water while she's in the dark with 0.5g of straight de-chlorinated water ph'd to 6.8 @67℉ to keep her hydrated. 9/12- Well she's out of the dark where she spent roughly 60 hours. I kept the temp's @ 64℉ and the RH at 45%. After I brought her out I shot a few pictures of her, then plucked off all of the shade leaves. I then cut her off at her base and hung her whole. I'll keep the RH in the room @ 50% for the first 24hrs., then raise it to 55-60% for the remainder of the drying. I have the temperatures in the Dry Room at a constant 65℉ to help preserve the terpenes. Hopefully she'll take 10-12 days to dry to the point that she's ready to be trimmed and jarred! Stay tuned for the harvest of this phenomenal cultivar! 💚🔥 ~Thanks for stopping in! Things are wrapping up and harvest is right around the corner....Stay lifted and be Blessed! 😎🙏~

Nice plant. Lollipopping and defoliation is a must. Bring that energy up to the tops. She grows very compact with short internodes.

Not much to say this week, they are thickening day to day, not as much as I wish they would but still more then happy with how my first grow is going so far. I increased their nutrients as they started into week 6 of flower. Thanks for your help with the potassium deficiency over the last week, appreciate everyone helping me out ☺️

V8, supuestamente hoy haría transplante a los maceteros definitivos, pero, hace 3 días que las plantas están presentando hojas débiles y dobladas hacia abajo, en un principio pensé en que podría ser exceso de agua, pero creo que es exceso de nutrientes, básicamente exceso de nitrógeno, ya que las hojas están con un verde muy oscuro y algunas están presentando manchas color café. Así que hoy les hice lavado de raíz, con agua EC 0, hasta que el drenaje fue de cercano a 4 EC. Esperaré unos días a ver si se recuperan, si no, simplemente las eliminaré y empezaré de nuevo, ojalá se recuperen. V9, al final si era exceso de nutrientes/nitrógeno, menos mal que se recuperaron con el lavado de raíces, pensé que morirían, ahora veré como siguen para decidir si hago transplante hoy mismo. V10, se realizó trasplante a macetas definitivas y un riego suave. Las plantas están todavía en recuperación, esperaré unos días más para empezar el LST. V12, riego. V13, se realizó una pequeña defoliación y LST.

Приветствую всех, кто следить за мной. Ваша поддержка очень важна для меня. На следующий день после того как я обновил прошлую неделю дневника наступило время пересадить растения в более крупное ведро. Я покажу вам как использовать дешовые пивные стаканы для пересадки ваших растений. Вы можете посмотреть это на первом видео. Когда я пересаживал растения я дополнительно добавил микоризу в большое ведро. Одно из растений "ЛСД -феминизированное" всё ещё показывает замедленный рост, несмотря на то, что я решил подсветить его LED полный спектр. Так же я внёс базовое питание, корневые стимуляторы и стимуляторы роста, в добавок с гуминовыми кислотами. Я планирую сделать из эти растений много клонов и запустить новый дневник в другой палатке, а эти растения потом переставить в маленькую палатку. Если вам интересно следить за приключениями травки в России, подписывайтесь на мой дневник -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Greetings to all who follow me. Your support is very important to me. The day after I updated the last week of the diary, it was time to transplant the plants into a larger bucket. I will show you how to use cheap beer glasses to transplant your plants. You can watch it on the first video. When I transplanted plants, I additionally added mycorrhiza to a large bucket. One of the "LSD-feminized" plants still shows slow growth, despite the fact that I decided to highlight its full spectrum LED. I also added basic nutrition, root stimulators and growth stimulators, in addition to humic acids. I plan to make many clones of these plants and start a new diary in another tent, and then move these plants to a small tent. If you are interested in following the adventures of weed in Russia, subscribe to my diary.

expected flowering: 7-8 weeks Germination method: cotton disc with tap water with 4ml/l root juice and 1ml/l acti-vera Tent: BlackBox Silver 90x60x180cm (3'x2'x6') Extractor: 220 m³/h Soil: Biobizz All-Mix SF-2000 @85cm @50% germination: 10/11 They took a little longer than usual to open up, all but one seem to grow vigorously enough afterward. sprout: 9/10 ; 9 transplanted in soil at first then another one transplanted 36H later i may transplant the last one if the root finally start to grow. First two are showing 20h after transplant. 35h after transplant 7 are showing. 42H after transplant 9 are showing and seem to form their first set of true leaves normally. Last one showed a little later but doesn't seem to form it's first true set of leaves.

Fruit Automatic - Dinafem Tercena semana de cultivo. Es una planta de cannabis vigorosa, frondosa y con cortos espacios internodales. Una planta que se adapta bien al cambio de dosis de nutrientes. Además, la aportación de quelato de Hierro realizada semanas anteriores para la estimulación de la clorofila esta dando grandes resultados. Siendo una cepa con una dominancia sativa, debe estar presente su fenotipo de Lowryder ya que presenta un corto espacio internodal. Espero que según se vaya desarrollando muestre fenotipos de la Grapefruit !

9th Week I'm trying to address the deficiencies, I believe it's due to using coconut substrate. I am gradually reducing the daily light exposure by 1 hour until reaching 12/12. As it's the first time with Delta 9 in the cultivation, I have trow it foliarly.

Clones termination. Mom's flowering. Yep, this is an example of how it should not be done. The clones survived two cases of tip rot and a transplant after cleaning the tips. They finally developed some roots, but still didn’t make it. I kept only one, but I need two. So… the mom is about to start flowering after stretching, and I cut eight branches again to make a second clone. After some bending and tying, the mom returned to the flower room. If your light has a flower mode, now is the time to turn it on. The fast stretch period is over, so add some red light. It helps with yield. This time we’re going to do it right, using the experience from the first attempt at cloning. Check the clones 2–5 times a day. Keep the propagator lid closed at all times, and don’t let water touch the cloning medium. Also, the cubes shouldn’t be soaking wet, just moist. This balance between water content and airflow is crucial for future roots.

Greetings, fellow cultivators and stewards of the green realm! It's time to embark on the Week 4 Flower Report for the enchanting Jealousy in the Power Buds competition. The grow room has transformed into a sanctuary of blossoming beauty, and our verdant queen continues to captivate with her botanical grace. As we venture deeper into the fourth week of flowering, Jealousy's prayerful demeanor remains steadfast. It's like a perpetual botanical meditation, where every leaf is a testament to the serene communion between plant and light. The grow room echoes with the hum of chlorophyll, and Jealousy stands as a living embodiment of lush greenery. The flower formation is a sight to behold. Buds, adorned in trichome-laden splendor, emerge like jewels on a botanical crown. The pace at which they're developing is nothing short of remarkable—almost turbocharged. It's like witnessing a botanical sprint, where each bud races toward maturity with an urgency that adds an extra layer of excitement to our horticultural odyssey. And now, let's talk root porn! Brace yourselves for a visual feast as we delve into the underground world of the clones. The roots, like intricate threads weaving a subterranean tapestry, tell a story of vitality and success. These clones, offspring of our majestic Jealousy, have not only taken root but have done so with a vigor that speaks volumes about the genetic prowess passed down from their botanical matriarch. The success of these clones is a testament to the health and vitality of Jealousy herself. It's like witnessing the circle of life in a green kingdom, where each rooted clone is a promise of continuity and a nod to the resilience of the plant lineage. As we navigate the fourth week of flowering, let's extend our gratitude to Zamnesia and Plagron, the unseen architects of our botanical masterpiece. Their contributions continue to shape the narrative of our green adventure. A standing ovation to the Grow Diaries community – your shared experiences and boundless enthusiasm are the pillars of our collective knowledge. To my fellow contestants and growers, may your buds swell with magnificence, and may the vibrancy of your grow rooms reflect the success of your botanical endeavors. Here's to a week of perpetual prayer, turbocharged growth, and the anticipation of a harvest that will leave us all in awe. Stay green, stay inspired, and keep cultivating those dreams! As always, thank you all for stopping by, for the love and for it all. This journey of mine would just not be the same without you guys. The love and support are very much appreciated, and I feel honored and blessed with you all in my life !!! With true love comes happiness.

Week 3... She was still gooning but growth started to EXPLODE!! So I decided to LST her a bit and see what that’s all about. I may or may not have week 2-3 photos mixed a bit. I’m putting this together in week 4 so I don’t have the best documentation from back then 😅
