Well I starved her for two weeks with some low PPM/low N, and bumped here back into an equilibrium last night at 400 ppm. PH stable through the night with a ppm drop. Fingers crossed for a manageable week 7. This plant pre-flowered mid-week 3 and she has flowered up quite a bit more than the other hydro auto grows I've done. Maybe a nice yield, or maybe a quick finish? I'm patient ... She hasn’t grown much at all last few days I’m guessing she’ll land 18” tall which is not good for my fixed light set up. Will need to rig the hangers in there somehow.

Cut a few clones to Secure the genetics rooting them in the eazy cloner Everything’s growing good switch more them to flora flex nutrients lots cheaper for me

GG4# Buenos dias ,El dia seria muy caloroso) Hagalo-Te Ayudare Siepre😎 PPFD 1500 Co2 1200 28C 60 RH She is doing well all what I want

More leaf picking just sprayed for mildew and bugs.About 7 more weeks to go here on this one

The colors are coming, it will be colorful soon 💐💐💐 The scent is extremely strawberry and sweet. It looks like the yield could be nice too.. No mold found anywhere, everything looks perfectly fine so far, Plagron nutrition in full dose. The other two plants do not form such dense buds, maybe it is their height..

Day 60 of veg first run with soil. Next round should be more vigorous growth overall. Really liking the Pineapple Express pheno 1 compared to the pheno 2 and 3. Much better growth and vigor. Let’s hope she brings that to the flower tent.

Esta por empezar el engorde final. Ya las flores estan casi formadas. La altura está al límite total. Uno o dos centímetros más y estaría en problemas de verdad. El engorde de muchas flores ya es notorio, pero creo que el uso de un bioestimulante que no es de primera línea, ha reducido el potencial de las plantas. De todos modos hasta no tener el resultado final no puedo afirmar nada. La solución de esta semana fue cargada con más pk booster para ver cómo funciona la linea de greenhouse en esta etapa. Suelo usar pk 13/15 de canna. Pero esta vez puse el que tenía. Seguiré actualizando. Día 31. Se nota mucho el engorde. Las hojas muestran pequeños signos de sobre fertilización, pero nada grave que no haya visto antes. Me suele pasar en esta semana en todos los cultivos en hidroponia. Pero las veces que ko me pasó, no tuve el engorde deseado. Por eso manejo mediciones de PPM superiores 1000. Se empieza a ver cuáles van a ser los cogollos más grandes, pero sigo con incertidumbre sobre cuanto más van a engordar. Estoy bastante conforme al momento. Hoy tuve contacto con plantas macho, pero me cambié toda la ropa antes de acercarme al indoor y le lavé. Además no sé si sumará, pero me rocío en alcohol cada vez que entro a casa, así que espero no tener problemas. Ya voy a ir preparando los esquejes para la próxima siembra. Quizá no logre sacar 10 de las madres que tengo. Pero quizá ponga menos y los haga crecer más tiempo y con bastante LST. Pero será en otro protecto. Por ahora espero que siga el engorde. Día 33. Ya el engorde es un hecho. Por el momento estoy bastante satisfecho. La solución se concentró demasiado así que tuve que agregar agua. Pero más allá de algunos signos de sobre fertilización mínimos y pasajeros en las hojas, la plantas se muestran saludables y firmes. Todavía sigo buscando la posibilidad de agregar overdrive la semana que viene. Todo está por verse. Ya puedo asegurar que va a haber una séptima semana de floración, sino debería empezar el lavado en 2 días, cosa que a la vista, sería muy apresurado. Así que seguiré esperando a ver las flores con los pistilos más secos. Entre tanto los tricomas ya están formados, pero recién van a empezar la maduración en unos días. No saco foto porque el celular no hace buen foco con la lupa, pero ya intentaré mas adelante. Día 35. Cierra la semana con una buena idea de lo que van a ser los cogollos. Según el calendario de la planta, debería empezar el lavado esta semana, ya que sería la última. Pero por la madurez de los tricomas, todavía le faltan entre 10 días y 2 semanas más. Así que se viene otra semana de sobrecarga de PK y voy a aumentar la dosis para aprovechar a medir el nivel de tolerancia de la planta a altos niveles producto. Al ser hidroponia y trabajar con el ambiente bastante controlado, confío en que voy a poder aplicar correctivos a tiempo, si empiezo a notar defasajes bruscos.

Moved her to new 80x80 tent where she has a lot more space to spread. She's showing signs of potassium deficiency and they are accelerating. I increased her nutrients despite signs of burnt tips on the top leaves. I am confident it is not lock-out. She seems to be a guzzler.

Deutsch: Tag 56 Grow Tag 2 Blüte: Viel Zeit ist vergangen, und die Ladies haben sich – bis auf einige gelbe Blattspitzen – von ihrem Stress und dem Training erholt. Am letzten Tag der Vegetationsphase wurde ein „Compost Tea“ angesetzt. Für 25 Liter wurden 125 ml Bio-Melasse, 250 ml Bodenhilfsstoff, 50 g Mykorrhiza-Granulat, 2 Liter Wurmhumus und 75 g Knochenpulver verwendet. Die Mischung wurde unter Sauerstoffzufuhr 24 Stunden lang belüftet. Die vermeintlichen Vorteile dieses Tees sind im Internet ausführlich beschrieben. Der VPD wird in den Wochen der frühen Blüte weiterhin zwischen 1,0 und 1,2 gehalten. Das entspricht aktuell etwa 24 °C bei 61 % relativer Luftfeuchtigkeit. Der CO₂-Wert liegt zwischen 650 und 850 ppm. Das Licht wird während der Stretch-Phase schrittweise auf 100 % erhöht (aktuell 90 %, ca. 850 PPFD). Da im Zelt noch Heizstäbe installiert sind, wird auf ein SCROG-Netz verzichtet. Tag 59 Grow Tag 5 Blüte: Unglaublich! ich musste die Lampe in den letzen Tagen insg. 15cm hocher stellen um die gewollten 30 cm Abstand einzuhalten. Den Unterschied sieht man auch deutlich auf den Bildern mit der Gelbtafel als Orientierungspunkt. Die Lampe ist mittlerweile auf 97% ca 900 ppfd - auch das CO2 wurde entsprechend auf 750-900 ppm erhöht. Da die Ladies sich augenscheinlich sehr über den "Compost-Tea" gefreut haben, habe ich erneut einen aufgesetzt. Das bekannte Rezept von Tag 2 wurde verwendet. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Day 56 – Grow Day 2 – Flowering Phase: A significant amount of time has passed, and the plants have recovered from stress and training, except for a few yellow leaf tips. On the last day of the vegetative phase, a compost tea was prepared. For 25 liters, 125 ml of organic molasses, 250 ml of soil conditioner, 50 g of mycorrhiza granules, 2 liters of worm castings, and 75 g of bone meal were used. The mixture was aerated with oxygen for 24 hours. The alleged benefits of this tea are widely described online. VPD will be maintained between 1.0 and 1.2 during the early flowering weeks. This currently corresponds to approximately 24 °C at 61% relative humidity. CO₂ levels are kept between 650 and 850 ppm. During the stretch phase, light intensity is gradually increased to 100% (currently 90%, approximately 850 PPFD). Since heating rods are installed inside the tent, a SCROG net will not be used. Day 59 – Grow Day 5 – Flowering Phase: Incredible! Over the past few days, I had to raise the lamp by a total of 15 cm to maintain the desired 30 cm distance. The difference is also clearly visible in the photos, using the yellow sticky trap as a reference point. The lamp is now set to 97% (approximately 900 PPFD), and CO₂ has been increased accordingly to 750–900 ppm. Since the plants appeared to respond very positively to the compost tea, another batch has been prepared. The same recipe used on day 2 was applied again.

Starting to feel like autopilot. Running into some minor problems this week in terms of feeding. Plant #3 had a runoff PPM of around 4000. Immediately decided to fllush her, but because of the medium's waterholding - the earth feels really heavy, even multiple days afterwards. She will be enjoying a two week flush and will then be chopped.

4th vegetation week. in this this week, plant goes slowly :( looking forward with big hopes.

Big flower and good aroma

Week 7 🌸 done Overdrive pushes Studio & Bruce Banner nicely Rainbow Gelato doesn’t seem to be effected by it - no new pistils / no significant bud swelling Real heavy smell in the box, mostly caused by the Studio54 Bruce Banner will get another week with reduced fertilizer - updated pics in the back, such a fat bush Rainbow Gelato & Studio only get water from now on Studio54 branches already bending down cause bud weight Happy to harvest the 2 in the front end of this week Drying etc will take place in another box with exhaust ventilation Sadly the images are being strangely compressed by the platform, so they no longer match the original. Last 3 pics are Studio before that is Rainbow Good to go for 7-9 days

Primeros signos de floración, encantado con la velocidad de este cultivo y con las vigorosas geneticas de Barneys Farm

Beginning of week 7. She looks good, the smell is very good but she s small. Lets see at the end.

It seemed there were two very different phenomes. One had pink calyxes which was cool. One had extremely dense buds and the other were fluffier put had trichs on top of trichs. The last plant taken had almost all stigmas bright red. Very pretty plants. I wish I didn't lose so much to insects. I learned ky lesson. Next year floating row covers. This strain made it through septoria and a host of other problems including inclement weather and a thrip infection. This plant looked so perfect and it just seems like I'm losing a little more daily. I was hoping the buds would fill out more on the last one but they were INCREDIBLY frosty and had reached the date it said on the package. Not that that matters.

Another eventful week! Transplanted into 5 gallong pots. Its interesting to see that there hasnt been much vertical growth but allot of branchung out compared to how it was with the other lights

New tent + new light (not install on this session)

Hey yall, Temps were high, but under control now. My girls were droopy despite having moist soil. After a good compost tea they bounced right back. Pistol hairs are showing, haven't grown this specific cultivar before so the bud structure is a but different than others I am familiar with. Let's see what she does moving forward. I am not a super fan of these genetics. Already have new seeds I am ready to start once these ladies are done. Over all the Strawberry Diesel from Beaver Seeds is not a noob grow, you need to have your grow dialed in. And really be careful with PM. I am keeping humidity as low as I cam while still maintaining a decent VPD. Challenges with this strain definitely turns me off. Looking forward to a new cultivar, already have some genetics from Michigan, those cats are really something else, they are hellbent on being better than the West coast. And they are in my humble opinion 😌 ☺️ Pure Michigan looks good, also Honey Sticks Genetics out of Maine is killing it, their Bananaconda 4 tested over 40% total cannabinoids. They want like 3k per cut, so that won't be my next, but looking forward to new genetics nonetheless. Anyways made some new ferments, remember to use equal parts organic sugar, Jaggery is best, that is the closest form of sugar to the sugar cane plant. Cover with paper towel, 2 to 3 days later let gravity give you all that juice, don't squeeze it to get more. Keep that juice in the fridge, that is your food. Then add water to the solids and keep at room temperature for 3 months to make a vinegar. That is your cleanser. Ask questions please 🙏 Love to see others trying KNF, or simply put Natural Farming methods.
