Days 15 to 17, varying by plant: My journey of experimentation, aiming to refine and perfect my cannabis cultivation methods, continues. This venture’s ultimate objective is to position myself as a preeminent cannabis cultivator in my locale. As I navigate through the labyrinth of regulatory licensing, I’m conducting a trial run with my seedlings under continuous lighting conditions and a minimal nutrient regime. My primary goal during this phase is to identify any potential hiccups that could hinder the growth process and ultimately impact the productivity of my intended commercial operation. As I delve deeper into this exploratory phase, I draw invaluable insights from the thriving cannabis community, whose collective wisdom informs my decision-making process. Given my geographical location and available resources, I’ve opted for a strategic shift in my cultivation strategy. Previously, I’ve been procuring seeds at an average cost of $10 to $22 per seed, with a relatively broad success rate variance, ranging from 70% to 85%. However, an alternative presents itself in the form of local cultivators. These businesses offer cannabis plants aged between 2 to 4 weeks, boasting an impressive variety of over 100 strains. These juvenile plants are offered at a cost-effective rate: an average of $100 for eight plants. With a success rate hovering between 70% and 95%, these plants offer excellent value. Essentially, I can access pre-grown plants at a substantial discount, in turn significantly boosting my chances of success. Consequently, I am poised to transition away from growing cannabis from seeds to harvesting. By sourcing my plants from local cultivators, I stand to significantly reduce overhead and production time—an undeniably smart move from a business standpoint. This strategic pivot signifies the end of an era and the exciting beginning of a more efficient and cost-effective chapter in my cannabis cultivation journey. I am currently outlining a plan to expand my cultivation by acquiring several juvenile plants, which should be happening between July 1st and 3rd. The new additions to my garden will include Acapulco Gold, Gelato, White Truffle, and Runtz. These will be cultivated in harmony with the existing growth, which comprises God’s Gift, Northern Lights, and the final surviving F1 Epsilon. My primary objective is to establish the most efficient and cost-effective supply chain possible. I aim to achieve this through the use of an off-grid system that runs solely on solar power, which will ensure complete sustainability and renewability. From a business standpoint, this approach is advantageous as it allows me to leverage the growth of high-quality plants that are already in the cultivation phase. The new plants are expected to arrive in about a week. If the growth rate of the currently cultivated plants doesn’t meet expectations, I’ll be incorporating several of the newly arrived plants into the hydroponics systems. This methodical approach aims to ensure an optimal growth rate and the highest possible yield. I also wish to address the cannabis grower community directly. I hope that my decision to skip the seed-to-plant stage does not cause any offense. My intentions are simply focused on maximizing quality and output, while minimizing our carbon footprint. I believe this approach is in the best interest of sustainability and efficiency, without compromising on the quality that our community values so highly. As we proceed with this venture, we’re currently in the phase of collecting equipment and navigating through the licensing process. To help lower our overhead and assist with consulting fees, we would greatly appreciate any donations, especially in terms of lighting equipment. Your support in this endeavor will contribute significantly towards optimizing our operation and will be deeply appreciated. Disclaimer: Let it also be known I am completely abiding by all state laws, and do not plan on selling any of this current bud. This is for research to avoid future growing "potholes" in the growing part of the business as we have a very small team. My end goal is to help change the current stigma around cannabis and provide a useful service that can help localize and reduce the inflation on cannabis prices in socal by providing a logical supply system. Again I intend on doing all things through the legal route as there is no need to do other wise given the laws on personal use and growing.

Gelato - Semana 7 1 Optimización de la Maduración y Corrección del Balance ( N-K) Durante el inicio de esta fase, se identificó un ligero espigamiento o foxtailing (cola de zorro) en las inflorescencias apicales. Etiología: Este fenómeno se atribuyó a una persistencia elevada de Nitrógeno (155 ppm) durante la semana 6. El exceso de en etapas avanzadas de floración puede reactivar procesos vegetativos en el ápice de la flor, promoviendo la formación de nuevas hojas de azúcar y estructuras espigadas que comprometen la densidad. Acción Correctiva:Se recalibró la solución nutritiva reduciendo el aporte de Nitrógeno a 90 ppm. Resultado: Esta restricción nitrogenada detuvo el crecimiento apical desordenado y forzó a la planta a entrar en una senescencia controlada. Al limitar el , se redirigen los carbohidratos de la síntesis de nuevas proteínas estructurales hacia la ruta de los metabolitos secundarios, mejorando significativamente la compactación de los cálices y la deposición de resina. 2. Ajuste del Balance Cationico y Presión Osmótica Se realizó una intervención crítica en la concentración de Potasio (K) para proteger la integridad del transporte de nutrientes en la zona radicular: Reducción de : El aporte se ajustó de 220 ppm a 195 ppm. Fundamento Técnico: Niveles de Potasio superiores a 200 ppm en esta fase aumentan drásticamente la presión osmótica en la rizósfera. Esto genera un antagonismo competitivo, donde el exceso de cationes de bloquea los sitios de absorción de Calcio y Magnesio . Consecuencia: Al bajar a 195 ppm, se redujo la interferencia iónica, permitiendo que el Calcio mantenga la estabilidad de las paredes celulares en los cálices maduros y el Magnesio continúe soportando la transferencia de energía (ATP) sin provocar bloqueos radiculares por saturación de sales. 3. Suplementación Final de Vitaminas del Grupo B En concordancia con el protocolo de maduración, se aplicó la penúltima dosis de Tiamina (B1), Piridoxina (B6) y Cobalamina (B12) (100mg / 5mg / 50mcg respectivamente) diluida por cada 10 litros de agua. Mecanismo: Estos activos actúan como agentes de mitigación de estrés abiótico. Dado que la planta está operando bajo una alta demanda metabólica y una solución nutritiva de alta precisión, el complejo B facilita el metabolismo de los carbohidratos y refuerza el sistema inmunitario radicular ante la fluctuación de la presión osmótica. 4. Estado de los Tricomas y Senescencia La reducción de macronutrientes ha acelerado la maduración bioquímica visible en las flores: Tricomas: La relación actual es de un 75% lechosos y un 15% ámbar, con una disminución notable de tricomas hialinos (transparentes). Arquitectura: La flor ha dejado de estirarse, logrando un cierre de corona mucho más denso. La coloración de las hojas de azúcar muestra un inicio de degradación de clorofila (fading), señal de que la planta está movilizando sus reservas móviles hacia la floración final. 5. Parámetros de Control Climático (VPD) Se mantiene un VPD de 1.4 kPapara asegurar que, a pesar de la reducción de Potasio, el flujo transpiratorio sea suficiente para movilizar el Calcio hacia las zonas de mayor densidad floral, previniendo necrosis interna en los cogollos más compactos.

Tag 21 der Blüte. Heute wurde die Lampe von 90 auf 100% also 300w hochgefahren. Es wurde kräftig gelollipoppt und störende Blätter wurden entfernt. Das Blätterdach ist sehr gleichmässig. Mich stört allerdings, dass sich im Verlauf der letzten Wochen viele kleine schwachen Seitentriebe gebildet haben einige davon wurden mit einem Entlichtungsschnitt entfernt. Hoffe so etwas mehr wenigstens mittelgrosse Buds zu erhalten (:

Super easy and quick grow for this girl. She took to LST without issues and developed some really stinky and dense buds. She was a fairly small plant but most likely due to the training. Definitely looking forward to running this strain again and might be sooner rather than later, depending on the smoke.

Week 4 Veg🌱 Some very selective defoliation this week only removing as little as possible to get as much light to the lower developing bud sites as possible. All 3 females are showing signs that they are starting to transition into the the flowering phase which is pretty cool. It’s been challenging keeping up with the feed requirements when feeding in just coco but all 3 plants seem to be healthy. Continuing to tie down the main stem to help open up the canopy. Hopefully the next week shows some good growth again as they start the stretch phase. Peace ✌️ 🕊️🌱

Hello grower family! FD 41,and looking awsome to me!Nice fat and dense buds on both.And the colours are amazing again!I'am sure that the reason for that is bat guano from Plagron.Eating like crazy,abaut 9l of solution for both,every 3 days.One more feeding with nutrient,and then start to flush them.

2022-09-03 I planted all 3 Seeds, started one indoors and 2 Outdoors 2 Outdoors were attacked by the Cat- and did not survive The indoor Girls developed very fast, and after 4 Weeks she went Outdoors too. There she showed great Performance. Easy to grow, no big attention needed. She was pleaded with her light prefertilsed Soilmix, and n eeded only afew Feedings in Stretch and i think one Bloom Feeding in Flower. After only 6 full Weeks of Flower, she war ready to Harvest. harbvesting was very easy here. Buds are thick, and dense. ( and sticky). The ratio from leaves to Buds are Phenomenal--- economic Plant---- nearly to no waste Only some branches, a handfull of leaves, and a big amount of lovely smelling Flowers The smell yes,,,, she smells like Pink grapefruit, and Peaches...... Stay tuned for smokingreport

Can see the clear difference between plant types. Hulkberry going that typical dark purple green colour which is hard to specifically identify but comes through with a great hue! Smells EXACTLY like berries. Skunks infamous smell is really coming out. Nice!
