Uma estrutura muito linda essas pequenas árvores da Mirtilo, muitos galhos, muitos botões surgindo um caule bem forte para passar bastante nutrientes.

Following RQS auto guide : https://www.royalqueenseeds.com/blog-how-to-grow-autoflowering-cannabis-n83 WEEK 3: VEGETATION WELL UNDERWAY #15 29.3. - #21 4.4. #15 29.3. -Nothing done on this day, except remotemonitoring #16 30.3. -Watered with nutes mix and with PH- mix -Filled hudfr. -Increased exhaust fan from 1/2 time on to 2/3 time on. -Modified the old LST's and bent rest of the plants too #17 31.3. -Watered again, with nutes mix and with just water, 3liters. -increased exhaus to be 100% -Shutdown humidifier -Tent now at 22c-25'c and about 40% hum. -removed the 3in1 meter, was just bs... -Otherwise growing nicely. #18 01.4. -Nothing done on this day, except remotemonitoring #19 02.4. -Nothing done on this day, except remotemonitoring #20 03.4. -Mixed all nutes to a 1,5liters , then mixed that with water to an 3liters and Watered with that solution, so about 0,75liters/pot -more LST as the plants are getting bigger -Removed humidifier from tent, as the hum. stays between 30-40% even with exhaust fan at 100% on. -Moved the temp diode closer to side of strskllr pot, as it got "too" close to plant leafs -Added pictures of LST and 2,5hours after it, noticeable change in plant directions, so immediately they are turning towards lights (as the should) -Oh right, 'cause there is 2x purplematics, i kinda FIMmed the other with just my fingers, at least i got some leaf heads out, so might been fimmed might not been fimmed, will see if there is any difference compared to his mate in the same pot.. #21 05.4. -Again a "last day of the week", this week must been "fastest", possibly 'cause again a day with "nothing done , just remotemonitoring" in diary also. -Will start watering more next (0,5liters/24h/plant stated in RQS guide 'bout growing autos : https://www.royalqueenseeds.com/blog-how-to-grow-autoflowering-cannabis-n83 ) -Also next week should be the last week in VEG phase, there was already some minor smell in tent, even with coalfilter at exhaust line intake, but id say no flowering nodes yet visible, will take "close-ups" after i spot any (nextweek) -Will not use Buddy next week, unless there is any visible flowerings, after that should be used accordingly.

Took some clones & defoliated/lollipopped I started building a veg tent and went with a 2x2 AC Infiniti equipped with the 4inch cloud line duct system was a boring grow week.. ready for flower

Final Weeks Update 🌿 We’re heading into the final weeks, and these beauties are really showing out. The buds are getting noticeably denser and thicker by the day, stacking up beautifully and putting on that final weight. Trichome production is on another level, absolutely incredible and well above average. The frost is insane. It might not fully translate in the photos, but in person it’s next-level work. What makes this run even more special is that nothing was added from start to finish. This has been a fully organic grow, powered entirely by a pack of Brotanics living soil. No bottled nutrients, no extras, just letting the soil do its thing. Easily one of the most hassle-free grows I’ve ever had. Smooth from start to finish, and the results are speaking for themselves. Excited to see how these last weeks finish out. 🌱✨

🌿 Journal de Culture : Mac 1 Autoflower – "Bee Happy" 🐝 (Semaine 8) ​Retour de vacances de Rimini ! La session avance à grands pas et la plante entre dans une phase cruciale. J'ai dû faire face à une petite surprise technique dans mon réservoir à mon retour, mais la situation est totalement sous contrôle et "Bee Happy" pète la forme. ​Paramètres de Culture & Climat ​Taille : Elle s'est stabilisée à 91 cm. Le stretch est définitivement terminé, offrant une canopée très homogène où toutes les branches secondaires culminent plus ou moins à la même hauteur. ​Gestion Lumineuse : Profitant de l'arrêt de sa croissance verticale, la lampe, désormais fixée à 40 cm de la canopée. ​Climat & Humidité : Toujours stable à 24°C le jour / 21°C la nuit, avec une humidité maîtrisée à 50%. ​Protection : J'ai installé une feuille collante (glue) au pied du pot. J'ai remarqué une présence trop importante de mouches de terreau (sciarides), ce qui permettra de piéger les adultes et nettoyer l'espace. ​Incident Technique : Le Mystère du pH Résolu ​À mon retour de vacances, j'ai constaté que l'eau du réservoir Autopot était montée à un pH de 8. ​💡 Note de culture : La cause est le bulleur d'air installé dans la cuve. Le bullage constant extrait le CO_2 de l'eau, provoquant une montée rapide et continue du pH. L'eau a probablement été distribuée à un mauvais pH depuis près d'un mois. ​Correction : J'ai immédiatement retiré le bulleur. De plus, j'ai changé de produit pour passer sur le pH Down de Plagron (conçu pour l'hydroponie), réputé bien plus stable dans les cuves de stockage. ​Nutrition : Des Filles Gourmandes ​Régime du jour : Arrosage manuel de 5 ml de Liquid PK 5-8 Biotabs dans 1 litre d'eau, ajusté à un pH parfait de 6,3. ​Observations : L'assimilation est excellente. On sent qu'elles ont faim et qu'elles demandent de l'énergie pour construire la suite. ​Analyse des Fleurs & Feuillage. ​Comme on peut le constater ,a production de trichomes devient phénoménale. Les petites feuilles de résine autour des têtes sont littéralement givrées, brillantes et collantes. Quelques rares pistils commencent à peine à brunir, mais la grande majorité reste d'un blanc éclatant : pour moi, ce sont encore de gros bourgeons en pleine formation qui vont continuer à gonfler massivement. ​L'odeur fruitée est extrêmement forte , un vrai régal. Visuellement, il y a une absence totale de sénescence ; toutes les feuilles principales affichent un vert foncé bien vigoureux. On note simplement quelques petites brûlures sèches localisées sur les pointes de certaines feuilles.. Rien d'alarmant : cela provient d'une forte transpiration foliaire accumulée lorsque je manipulais la plante et les branches sous le filet et aussi le mauvaisph de la cuve.. ​Merci à @mia_biotabs et Mrs_Larimar pour les conseils ! et à vous tous qui me suivez et soutenez. ❤️❤️ Le système de distribution d'eau est assaini, le PK est administré, place au gonflement ! À la semaine prochaine pour la suite.

Hey everyone :-). The last plants were also placed in the bloom chamber kammer. Everyone has made great progress this week 🙏🏻. There is not much to say about this week, I think videos and pictures say more like words 🙈😎. I wish you all a good start into the week :-) Stay healthy and let it grow 🙏🏻👍

We are happy of the results, but in the next batch we will be put 8 plantas and AC

Day 42-49 (Day 43) I was at the dollar store today and I found the best little plant risers. And they all link together in perfect 12” squares. Fits in my tent perfectly and only spent 15 bucks. That should help the dry downs quite a bit. I’m going to transplant the euro genetics into 1.7g pots with amended sunshine mix #4 for their final containers. I moved all of the non-marijuana seedlings into a small greenhouse out of my tent so I have some more space and light per plant. I also set up an exhaust fan to keep the humidity at a perfect 65-70% night and day. (Day 44) Everything is looking a little nute burned and droopy. The garlics are showing signs of overwatering and nitrogen toxicity. They look like they want to flower so badly. Node spacing is weirdly short too. I picked up the American genetics to look for roots and they were busting out of the bottom. They’re definitely not rootbound as they’re not even a foot tall yet. This is likely from having soil that is too compact (from using too much rock dust and not enough drainage) causing my waterings to not even reach the bottom of the pot. This was also happening to my other grow. I will make sure to very lightly pack soil into pots for now on because you can always add more later. I’m going to fluff up the pots and see if I can loosen the soil a bit. If that doesn’t work I’m going to look at transplanting into 3g fabric pots and lightly shaking off most of the old soil. Luckily I added a shit ton of drainage for the euro genetics when I amended the sunshine mix so they won’t need a transplant. (Day 46) The fluffing didn’t do much. In fact it might have made it worse lol. I just went to the store and bought some Destiny Organics soil and have decided to transplant. I dusted off 90% of the old soil down to root ball which will cause an insane amount of stress to the plants. The plants started in the aero garden were being choked out by the shitty sponge plug it was germinated in. I took a razor blade and carefully cut them down the middle so the stem can expand. I might have cut a few major roots one or two plants. Other than that everything is transplanted. I cut all my amendments in half and I packed the soil very loosely this time. The situation is not ideal by any means but I’m hoping they will bounce back in the next week. This should at least set them up for a more successful flower. I can’t really expect much quality from botched run but who knows. I might come out with some fire. Since this is my last grow here I don’t even have to pay the power bill for the next few months! (I have a very generous landlord as he’s letting me finish my grow until mid September now 😂) (Day 47) I’m going to give them their first good watering and test my fluffy soil. I watered in approximately 700mls each making sure it soaks to the bottom of the pot. (Day 49) All the plants have bounced back except for the ones with root damage. They are still looking droopy and sad. The black garlic #1 has recovered really nicely and is looking happier than ever. The apical growth tip is so tight it has like 4 nodes within an inch somehow. I recently learned that hormones contained in kelp and seaweed extracts can act as plant growth inhibitors and shorten node spacing drastically. I only added a very small amount of kelp meal to the soil so it must be leftover from the previous foliar sprays Velokelp. I’m going to pinch the top off bg1 and see if the lowers can catch up. Sucks to do that so close to flip but oh well. The euros are looking fully recovered from their burn a little while ago. The sunshine mix is quite thick and water retentive as well but at least it has some extra drainage. They’re all looking quite healthy.

This week is pretty good! Temp was a bit low but resolved this now. This is my 2rd attempt but I only have a 1×.5 space so im playing around a little!

Was a pleasure to pull this lady this week. She is 3 days into drying. 18.3c RH 57-63% in a dark bathroom Buds are big and the plant itself you can smell from downstairs. House is filled with hints of Vanilla & fruity undertones. Extremely high Calyx to leaf ratio. More updates & pics coming and reports as it progresses. 20% off KANNABIAS amazing strains with code: ggst https://kannabia.com/feminized-cannabis-seeds/candy-cream-go-fast

I haven’t kept track of the exact number of days since sprouting. But the two oldest plants are in their tenth week. In calendar this would probably be the last week of feeding before flushing. I’ll try to keep going with these ones until the younger two are more ready too, currently only in their eighth week. The last grow had a younger plant which I cut a little early. It was a nice, bright clear headed smoke. But i think we prefer the more mature end. The white widow buds are dense in white pistols. They are smaller, but there are a lot of them. They feel more dense than any I have grown so far. Interested to see if that density is still in the dry bud. I’m sick of fluffy buds. The gorilla glue buds are dark and bulbous, but way looser. They are thick with sticky trichomes. The trichomes in the older plants are about 3/4 clear 1/4 cloudy with no amber yet. The younger ones are still all clear.

February 23, 2024 Day 8 Both babies got 250 ml top water today. I'll check on them in a couple hours and see how they are. Other than that. Nothing else to do. I did want to mention how very similar these two are. I think they're the same phenome. Although, it may be a bit early to really tell. That would be cool though. Beautiful green color and perfect little stalk. The true fan leaves are starting to show themselves now, so I can officially move them into the Veg Stage. So for this week, the focus will be watering and ensuring the light intensity is at the right level. I'll probably wait another few days before I think about introducing some nutrients. I'd like to start when the true fan leaves are fully showing. As I've said before, the soil is used, so I think a bit of recharge and Advanced Nutrients 3 Part Base solution would be a good idea. At a minimum of course. I'm counting more on the recharge to really kickstart the soil back to life. I'm definitely going to need to do a full watering when the first node starts and with the nutrient solution. However, I feel like I may need to do that sooner rather than later. Based on my last grow, the biggest plant had the most water in the second week of growth. I even thought I overwatered, but nope. So I'm going to try to replicate that. Especially because this is a super fast strain. They'll need all the water they can get. I'll start that on my next watering. I'll bump it up to 500 ml and focus mainly on the outer rim to help the rest of the soil get to the right moisture level without disturbing the environment they already have at the base. The light is still the same distance from the plants with the same PPFD. I'll start to focus more on DLI in the coming days as they grow. I have my light schedule for the week and plan to stick to it, letting the intensity slowly increase for the start of the next week and so on. I was considering increasing the power to 40% when I need to increase the intensity, but I have so much distance to play with, I might as well keep it at the same level until I get some nodes going. By flower, I'm hoping to have a perfect DLI of 45 by flowering. And hoping to be able to bring the light up to 100% for super deep penetration by then. I'd also like to get the light down to 24" for the veg stage. It seems to be the sweet spot for the coverage footprint. Also, I think I got the Tent Environment down for once. The night temp drops to around 68° while the day temp, although slow to climb, stays around 77°. I'm hoping that doesn't cause a stunting issue with the temp swing at such a young age. I think it will be fine. We shall see. The average temp is a bit low though. I may increase the night temp to 72°. That should put the average over 75°. The RH is pretty steady across the board around 72% with it dropping a little bit to 68% and up a bit higher at night to 74%. The VPD is also spot on averaging around 0.82 kPa. During the day it climbs up to 1.03 and at night drops down to 0.77 kPa. It's a bit low for my taste, but with the increased temp, I should see a nice round 0.83 kPa at night. Someday I'll get an automatic humidifier. Anyway, I know it was a lot, but it's a new week. See you tomorrow: Grow System Environment: Temp: 74.6° RH: 71.8% VPD: 0.82 kPa February 24, 2024 Kind of a big deal today for both ladies. So I in have a pair of Tropicana Cookies sharing the tent with these plants. The TC is showing signs of deficiencies. So to combat that, I added a 1/4 tsp of Recharge to a gallon of water. As I'm growing both strains as similarly as possible, I fed 250 ml to all 4 plants. Hopefully the packaging is correct and it won't burn these little babies. They are definitely hitting Veg already. But to be on the safe side, I covered them with a Starbucks cup and then watered them. It kept the soil from getting saturated at the base and will also help promote outward growth. As for watering itself, I feel like I should be watering more to prep the soil for when the veg stage really hits and the roots start to search more. I'd like to get to the point of runoff by the end of the week. Maybe I'll add another 250 ml with the cup in place again tomorrow. I will also need to water at the base in the next day or so. They are both growing the exact same still. I know it's only been a day, but a lot can change in that time, so nothing yet. Plus, what else am I supposed to document? Stems are strong. Leaves are a beautiful green color and the true leaves are starting to spread more. Lookin good. I'd also like to mention that it is 16° outside today, so even with the heat cranked, it's not really doing much. So low temps for a bit today. Around 70° much too low, but not much I can do until the heat catches up. Grow System Environment: Temp: 73.4° RH: 67.6% VPD: 0.90 kPa February 25, 2024 Not much to do today. I'll either water 250ml today or 500 ml tomorrow. Either way, it's time to start wetting the whole container. I'm starting to think I should have done this the day before planting them. Oh well, I'll try that next time. For now, I'll stick with the gradual watering. It'll be increased again next week if needed. These babies look great. The leaves are getting longer and seem to be a medium width. Much like a true hybrid. So far at least. It's still pretty early to tell. We shall see. The light intensity is pretty good as well. No changes needed at the moment. However, I have a feeling I'll be dropping it an inch or two in a couple of days to match the schedule. I don't think I need to increase the power yet. I'll start increasing the power when I start training. It makes sense. I'll be pulling the tops down, so the DLI will be off a bit. But instead of dropping the light, increase the intensity so it can penetrate the new canopy right away. And if I can hover between 22" and 24" light distance, it should be perfect. I feel like that has the best footprint for this setup. Interesting Theory: Mostly for My Records: I may be slow on the info, but I think I figured out how brightness and distance make a difference in PAR and Brightness as well as footprint. The light distance defines the footprint. And the light power defines the brightness. Combining the two makes for a PAR reading. However I feel that the higher the brightness, the deeper the canopy penetration. Distance doesn't really change the brightness. It does change the PAR, but we can fix that with Distance. As long as we match the PAR reading to the proper level, there's no difference, correct? Maybe not. A less bright light even super close to a canopy would not be strong enough to penetrate the canopy because the power isn't strong enough. Even at the same PAR reading, it still wouldn't be powerful enough to penetrate. On the other hand a brighter light with the same PAR reading would work differently. Same PAR reading at a higher distance. But the power would also be higher. I feel that the light will penetrate deeper as long as the PAR remains the same. An example is a too large plant for the setup. Light distance was under 9" and power was down to 30% the PAR reading was much too high even with such low power. The light however couldn't penetrate below the first set of leaves and buds very well. But, in a smaller tent with a 100 watt light, I grew a wonderful plant where the light penetrated the canopy deeper because it was brighter and the distance was deeper. The plant wasn't nearly as big as it was in a 2x2 tent and 1 gallon container compared to the 3x3 tent and a 5 gallon container. But it had dense buds almost all three way down to the base. The larger plant had bud as far down as I allowed, as it mostly came out as popcorn, loose buds and some larf. This all brings me to believe that light power directly affects the canopy penetration and not necessarily distance. Distance plays a role with footprint and brightness, but not power. I also believe light heat makes a difference as well. A brighter light is warmer and plants like to be warm. So they will stretch to the warmth of the light as well. Less power means a cooler light and a less happy plant. My opinion of course. As I'm keeping this for my records, if anyone has any extra info, or correcting facts, please let me know. I'd rather have a theory be corrected or supported so I have the correct information. Doesn't matter how old this Diary is as I check all comments. Thanks in advance! Update: I decided to water in 250 ml of Recharge without the domes. I'll do another 250 ml tomorrow with the domes on and so forth until they get too big to fit under the dome. Then it will be normal watering. Grow System Environment: Temp: 76.1° RH: 74.4% VPD: 0.57 kPa (a bit low, but I'm measuring 2 different probes) February 26, 2024 Mid-week update: Both ladies are looking great! Still wonderful green and growing nice and steady. They are about 6 cm tall or 2 3/4". DLI: 18.1 mol/m²/d PAR: 280 ppfd. I also watered in another 250 ml with the domes on today. I'll run the 250 ml daily until week 3 and then I'll change it up to 500 ml every other day for that week. After that, everything should be good to go for the flowering stage. I'll also install the basins after week 3. It should be excellent timing. They are 1 gallon basins. So refilling should be every other day or so. The goal with this run is to not have to top water at all. The basins should work perfectly as long as I set them up properly. Grow System Environment: Temp: 75.8° RH: 70% VPD: 0.83 kPa February 27, 2024 So major problem in my opinion. My humidifier is blanketing the whole tent with the white powder they give off. I wasn't running my exhaust fan as I didn't need it at all. So I turned it on as low as possible and started one of my circular fans. Hopefully that solves the problem. I had to carefully wipe it off of Banana PP B. However, regardless of the powder, these two are growing quite nicely. Maybe a little slower than I was hoping, but still nice steady growth. They both got a little misting today as well as will be getting the 250 ml watering after the water comes up to room temp. This watering will be PHed to 6.0 and will be dome free. There was still about 400 ml of Recharge left, so I let it stay and just won't add more til next week when I start the base nutrients. I'll also be adding Cal/Mag. Other than that, they are still super green and super healthy. Hopefully they take off when the base nutrients kick in as well as the container soil being properly moistened. Grow System Environment: Temp: 74.7° RH: 60.6% VPD: 1.16 kPa February 28, 2024 Not much going on today. They both got their daily 250 ml watering PHed at 5.95. I didn't go near the base though. So it's kinda like having the dome, but not as precise. They are slightly reaching and the first set of true leaves are finally starting to pop out. The node is also growing at what seems to be a wonderful pace. Still a beautiful green and the stalk is nice and strong. Very straight as well. They do have a bit of a lettuce structure on the single fan leaves. It'll be fine. The true leaves look spectacular. Lighting is still pretty spot on. 2 more days and I'll be either lowering the light or increasing the intensity. At this stage I don't think I need to increase the power. The light distance is pretty far away. That gives me a good 6 inches of wiggle room. I'll increase the intensity when they start to grow a second node. On the other hand, I could keep the light where it's at for now and let the plants grow into it. Then I can increase the intensity when they get to that point. Week 3 from seed starts in 2 days. Which should be the true first week of Veg. I'll evaluate on what to do tomorrow. I'm pretty sure I need a DLI of 20 mol/m²/d starting next week. So I'll run the light at 350 ppfd or DLI of 22.7 mol/m²/d. Just above. It seems to be the perfect spot for these ladies. I'd also like to add that I've had zero issues with the 250 ml per day. It keeps the soil moisture just around 50%. Not sure if that means I'm not getting any deeper, but that's why I'll be starting 500 ml every other day next week. I feel that adding the extra 250 will help penetrate the soil better and a bit faster. Especially because those roots are going to start stretching past the dome width. And it's time for the roots to start growing down. Grow System Environment: Temp: 75.4° RH: 62.9% VPD: 1.09 kPa February 29, 2024 Today is the last day of the first week of plant life. Week 2 from seed. Both plants got the 250 ml top water without dome. Lighting looks great. Although, I noticed that a couple hours before lights out, they were both standing straight up like there was no light, but they still had a good 3 hours left. Strange or good? Either way, it'll be adjusted tomorrow to a DLI of 22.7 mol/m²/d. PAR will be 350 ppfd. I'm also going to try and lower the light a smidge. Maybe down to 26". We shall see what works best. Both plants are super healthy and right on track. Maybe a little slower than I'd hoped, but still steady growing. I feel like this will be a 4 week veg time. Greens are beautiful and she looks very strong. Leaves are growing nicely and I can only imagine they will take off when I start the Advanced Nutrients regimen tomorrow. At least I hope they take off. They should though. Tomorrow is around the time when they really start taking root. That in turn speeds up growth so I think I'm right on point here. I'm also going to be posting a video every week. Once the 2 start to show their differences and greater size, then they will each get a video every week. Update: I realized my plants were reaching a bit too much and leaning in toward the light. That being said, they definitely need more light, so I lowered it until I hit a DLI of 19.8 mol/m²/d. That way when I bring it up to 22.7 mol/m²/d it won't be hit so hard immediately. I should have dropped the light down a day or two ago, but oh well. It will be on point for the rest of the grow. Grow System Environment: Temp: 73.0° RH: 62.3% VPD: 1.03 kPa The temp slammed down over 50° last night and I'm having a bit of trouble combating it. It'll definitely take a decent amount of the day to re-acclimate. However, it should be fine. I have the temp in my room set to 80° so that should combat the sudden cold.

She seems starting to develop CalMag deficiency maybe. Start to add some CalMag every other watering. Every 2 weeks also the Bio Enhancer from greenhouse feeding

Day 105 - Next will be the last week of the lady. I'm planning 3 days of plain water and then other 3 days of darkness and no water to frosten up the buds 🤞🏼

This week went by quick but they grew a lot! I didn't do anything different than last week but just increase their water intake from 1L to 1.5L and then followed my same nutrient regiment. I use the Fish Poop then the next day I just water. Then I use the Real Growers Soil Recharge and then I just water the next day. Then I use the MaxiGrow and then I just water the next day. Then I use the Stash Blend and then I use just water the next day. You can pH (using soil) between 5.5 and 6.5 so I always pH my Nutrient Solutions at 6.2 and use my pH'd water which is a 6.8 (7.0 for soil) but I pH my H20 after adding my Nutrient Solutions. I use my H2O that's always 65 degrees! I find it's better and easier to have a bucket with pH'd water ready to go at all times. It makes it easier when watering and feeding your plants especially if you have a few to care of!

This girl is flying by loving the lst with the u pegs I turn the leds right the way down to foliar feed calcarb then all the way back to 75% 2 hours later

Floracion las planta que estaba amarilla se esta recuperando anda mucho mejor pirde menos hojas y las demas siguen en perfecto estado

Hello growers day 8 with the hulkberry auto she’s doing very well no signs of problems at the mo she seems fine with me new light just keeping her wet waiting for her to grow abit the other 4 plants are also doing well iv got them in 6.5L pots so see if there’s any difference I messed up my diary and posted on wrong 1 my until next week be safe and happy growing ✌️
