So far so good 🤘 Blumat watering system works great. No feeding other than water. Might do a little compost tea later. Le système d’arrosage automatique Blumat fonctionne nickel, pas de nutriments autre que de l’eau. On fera ptet un ptit thé de compost plus tard.

Harvested the Papayas - Smooth harvest, very sticky bud. Really happy with plant 1 :) Long trim sessions this week - hoping for some better yields from the Sweet Seeds F1 strains.

02/12 start of week 6 of flower. I dropped light to 500 watts it's about 750-800 ppfd now on canapoy temps should come down a couple degrees to. 02/14 got watered with wdg3000 and BB

🌸 White Widow — Week 7 Flower (Week 11 from seed) Status: Full flower, bulking rapidly. Vibe: Dark foliage, compact form, heavy frost, 90s aroma profile. Feeding: Aptus + Plagron lineup (Power Buds, Sugar Royal, Green Sensation, Regulator, CalMag, All-in-One) Photos: Sony a6000 — loyal workhorse for studio shots. 📷 ⸻ 🧠 Deep dive — Why 12/12-from-seed makes a plant “go hard” Plants evolved to reproduce. Their primary biological drive is to make seeds. Photoperiod (day length) is one of the most reliable seasonal cues plants use to decide: is it time to flower? Mechanisms at play (simple → nerdy): • Photoperiod sensing: Leaves detect day length via phytochrome systems (Pr Pfr). Short days (or the 11/13 rhythm) flip the hormonal cascade toward flowering. • Florigen & flowering hormones: When the plant senses “short days,” it produces mobile signals (florigen) that travel to the shoot apex and shift gene expression from vegetative growth to reproductive development. • Carbohydrate reallocation: Energy stops making more leaves/branches and is directed into calyxes, resin synthesis, terpene pathways, and seed/flower tissues. • Result: A plant that thinks “the season’s ending — reproduce now!” goes all-in: denser flowers, rapid calyx swelling, intense trichome production. Important point: they don’t know about pollination. The plant can’t tell you whether pollinators exist or whether pollen will land — it simply invests in attractive, resinous flowers to maximize reproductive success. As growers, we exploit that drive to produce potent sensimilla (unpollinated) flowers. ⸻ 🔬 Why your White Widow is exploding in quality right now • Immediate reproductive programming: Starting floral signals early (12/12 from seed) forces the plant to prioritize flower formation rather than vegetative mass. That yields compact, dense colas. • High PPFD + short day = strong DLI in less time: With fewer hours of light, your lamp intensity is higher in those hours → powerful photosynthesis during the window the plant has chosen. • Nutrition tuned to flower: the Aptus + Plagron stack feeds the metabolic surge — PK + biostimulators for bulking, sugar stimulators for terpene pathways, Ca/Mg for structural health. • Genetics: White Widow is resin-happy; give it the right cues and it will frost up like a sugar cookie. ⸻ 🌈 Why her colors are going dark (and why that’s beautiful) Leaf & bud color comes from a balance of chlorophyll + accessory pigments (anthocyanins, carotenoids) and is influenced by: • Genetic propensity (some phenos are naturally darker) • Temperature swings (cooler nights often increase anthocyanin expression) • pH / nutrient balance (some deficits/ratios nudge color pathways) • Light spectrum intensity (strong red/far-red influence can shift pigment expression) Dark phenos often correlate with high terpene and anthocyanin expression — visually stunning and often highly aromatic. ⸻ 🔁 Quick timeline recap (for newcomers) • Germination & early mistakes: initial heat-mat loss → restarted, one strong survivor. • Veg: compact, short internodes under the 11/13/12-12 shuttle → stacked nodes. • Early flower: slow to show, but once she flipped she committed. • Now – Week 7 flower (Week 11 from seed): heavy bulking, thick trichomes, deepening color, classic White Widow aroma emerging. ⸻ 🔭 What to expect next (this week → next week) Expect: • Continued bulking of calyxes and cola weight. • Explosion of trichome coverage — white, cloudy glands multiply. • Stronger terpene smell (earthy, spicy, resinous 90s profile). • Possible color intensification — deeper greens, potential purples depending on phenotype & nights. Do not expect: • Major new stretch — she’s committed to flower and will remain compact. • Immediate harvest — typical White Widow still wants its weeks; plan for patience (mid-late flower bulking happens over several more weeks). ⸻ ⚖️ Should you run all seeds 12/12 next cycle? (pros & cons) You asked if you might run every seed 12/12 — here’s the honest rabbit-hole: Pros • Much faster cycle → less time to harvest. • Compact plants → ideal for small spaces or stealth grows. • Often denser single-plant yields; less training needed. • Great for experimentation, multi-strain rapid rotation. Cons • Generally lower total biomass per plant vs. long veg runs. • Some genetics need veg time to express full canopy & branching; yields may be lower for those strains. • Root systems can remain smaller → may stress under high PPFD if not supported. • Less flexible for heavy-topping/lst/manipulation strategies. Bottom line: for strains with good genetics for flowers (like White Widow), 12/12-from-seed can be very rewarding. For sativa-dominant, tall strains you might lose yield without long veg. ⸻ 📷 Gear love — Sony a6000 shoutout I’ve got to echo it: that camera is a workhorse for growers. Compact, responsive, great color fidelity, and perfect for low-light studio shots when paired with proper exposure. The a6000 captures the leaf texture, color depth, and bud gloss in a way phones struggle to match. Long live the loyal shooter. 📸✨ ⸻ 🙏 Gratitude — the usual and the real Thank you to: • Zamnesia — for the genetics & the nostalgia. • Aptus & Plagron — the chemical & biological push that lets the plant sing. • ThinkGrow / Future of Grow / TrolMaster — lighting, control, and environment orchestration. • You — the makers, lovers, critics, curious readers — your energy fuels this diary.

DLI = the total amount of photosynthetic light (photons) a plant receives over one day. It’s expressed in moles of photons per square metre per day (mol·m⁻²·day⁻¹). While PPFD (μmol·m⁻²·s⁻¹) tells you instantaneous light intensity, DLI tells you how much light the plant actually used that day. ⸻ 2) The formula (how to calculate it) Use this exact formula: text{DLI (mol·m}^{-2}text{·day}^{-1}) = frac{text{PPFD (μmol·m}^{-2}text{·s}^{-1}) times text{seconds of light per day}}{1{,}000{,}000} Where seconds of light per day = hours of light × 3600. I’ll show worked examples so it’s easy to follow. ⸻ 3) Worked examples (digit-by-digit so it’s crystal clear) Example A — your reported PPFD ≈ 766 μmol·m⁻²·s⁻¹ and 11 hours light • seconds of light = 11 × 3600 = 39,600 s • photons per day = 766 × 39,600 = 30,333,600 μmol·m⁻²·day⁻¹ • convert to moles: 30,333,600 ÷ 1,000,000 = 30.3336 mol·m⁻²·day⁻¹ So: 766 μmol·m⁻²·s⁻¹ × 11 h → DLI ≈ 30.3 mol·m⁻²·day⁻¹ Example B — same PPFD but 12 hours • seconds = 12 × 3600 = 43,200 • photons = 766 × 43,200 = 33,091,200 • DLI = 33,091,200 ÷ 1,000,000 = 33.0912 mol·m⁻²·day⁻¹ Example C — other quick refs • 700 μmol × 11 h → DLI ≈ 27.72 • 800 μmol × 11 h → DLI ≈ 31.68 • 400 μmol × 11 h → DLI ≈ 15.84 • 1000 μmol × 12 h → DLI ≈ 43.2 (You can plug any PPFD and hours into the formula — those are ready-made reference points.) ⸻ 4) What DLI targets are useful for cannabis? • Vegetative (gentle): ~12–25 mol·m⁻²·day⁻¹ • Flower (typical good range): ~25–40 mol·m⁻²·day⁻¹ — most home/pro growers aim here • High-intensity/CO₂-enriched commercial: 40–60+ mol·m⁻²·day⁻¹ (needs CO₂, stronger conditioning) So your example (≈30 mol·m⁻²·day⁻¹ at ~766 PPFD × 11h) sits very nicely in the flower range. That explains the dense bulking + heavy resin you’re seeing — our DLI is right where White Widow loves to convert energy into flowers. ⸻ 5) Practical implications — what DLI affects and what to watch • Higher DLI → higher photosynthesis → more carbohydrate to drive bud bulking and terpene/trichome production. • Higher DLI requires more water and nutrients. Plants transpire more and pull more minerals; be ready to feed and irrigate appropriately. • Leaf temperature / heat stress: pushing PPFD up increases canopy energy/heat — keep airflow, VPD, and room temps under control. • CO₂ matters: if aiming beyond ~40 mol/day, elevated CO₂ (e.g., 800–1200 ppm) becomes productive; otherwise additional light won’t be used efficiently. • Distribution matters: DLI is an average over the canopy. Hotspots or shaded pockets mean some flowers get too much or too little — even light spread (and PAR mapping) matters. ⸻ 6) Actionable tips for your run (based on your 11/13 / 12/12 experiment) • We’re hitting excellent flower DLI (≈30 mol/day at 766 μmol × 11 h). That’s why buds are dense/frosty — keep the rhythm. • If you shorten hours (e.g., 11 h) keep PPFD high to maintain target DLI. If you lengthen hours (12 h) you can reduce peak PPFD slightly and still hit the same DLI. • If you raise PPFD to chase more DLI, ramp slowly (a few μmol/sec per day) to let stomata and roots acclimate — avoid sudden bleaching. • Watch watering & EC — higher DLI → faster uptake → more frequent but measured feeding. • If you ever push DLI 40 mol/day consider CO₂ enrichment and perfect VPD control to have that extra light used efficiently. ⸻ 7) Quick rules of thumb • Want to hit ~30 mol/day with 11 hours on the clock → aim for roughly 700–800 μmol·m⁻²·s⁻¹. • Want ~33 mol/day at 12 hours → ~766 μmol·m⁻²·s⁻¹ matches that nicely. • If you see leaf cupping/bleaching, you’ve likely exceeded safe PPFD for that canopy or temps are too high — back off, check VPD.

Я так и не понял FastBuds, может потому что в моей стране война, каждый день были ракетные обстрелы и я не смог нормально выращивать. Обновления 13.05.2023 русские террористы продолжают убивать мирных людей. Очередной ракетный обстрел Украины 🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦.

Sobre esta cepa no hay que comentar mucho,bastante contento con esta regular.

So at the start of week 3 I began to LST CM#3 to just experiment basically and topped CM#2 I believe. Again, just to experiment. This is my first grow and I was stunned with the reactions to both! The new growth after topping was about 1/4” in about 12hrs.. Crazy to me and the lst is proving to expose these bud sites and encourage amazing growth QUICK!! I’ll continue to train daily. One of the videos show the topped CM just yesterday. In 4 days, it’s grown soo much! Also, a video mentions the gender reveal but since then, all 4 have officially revealed themselves as female at the 22 day mark.

Hello to you all. As a true visionary I decided to go FULL HYDRO this week, that means water in buckets and outside the buckets /s This grow turns out to be an uphill battle but i already decided to bring it to completion no matter what...Icy weather, floods, alien invasions what's coming next a big bank crash?! I bring this grow to the end , who needs banks anyways when you got #coins On 22.02. added nutrients to the 140 liters of solution. That's it, I hope to see y'all next week growmies.

Auto Maxi Gom is making progress. She is shifting more into a stretching, and stronger pre flowering phase. She should start developing more colas in the next weeks to come.

DAY 1 (06/03/2020) The seedlings started growing tonight after 4 days since they were planted inside the rockwool cube (02/03/2020). They are under a 23w CFL until they are a little taller and start to make the first 2 leaves. The distance is very small from the light to not get them too stretched. Feeding just water now. I already prepared the RDWC setup with a 60 liters box (0,6 m x 0,4 m x 0,25 m) for 3 plants. The grow tent is 120x120 cm. The light will be a Sylvania 600w HPS powered by a Gib Ligthing LXG Timer 600w Electronic Ballast. Since it is dimmable I will start with 250w and increase in the first weeks until reaching 600w. The ballast has the Sunlight mode which increase the wattage of the lamp during the first hour and decrease during the last to simulate the sun cycle. DAY 5 (10/03/2020) Seedling are growing well. I started RDWC yesterday and put 25 liters of water with 15 ml of FloraCoco Grow, 15 ml of FloraMicro,15ml of FloraBloom. I also added 5 ml of Great White Mycorrhizae to strengthen roots. The water from my tap is 40 ppm , the water in the reservoir is 500 ppm. Increased power light to 350w. Temperature and Humidity when lights on: 23°C and 35%. Added a humidifier inside the room to increase humidity.

Week 21 Daylight 12h20 - 7h45/20h05 Unstable weather, alternating heavy rain and wind quasi every days and sunny afternoons. Moderate temperatures around 14°C min / 23°C max. Plants are safe in the veranda; the sun is lower on the horizon now and the angle of the light is now perfect for a good finish. I need to test the humidity level in the room but it seems reasonable. No signs of diseases or moisture. Last weeks were hard with multiple aggressions: plants are like War Veterans with some damage and scars. The flowering process look not affected by this episode and harvest is approaching. Brake Pad Breath: almost ready. Pistils are rusty colored, buds are thick and dense, firm and sticky. Subtle fruity aroma: tonic and stimulating. Most advanced plant: will be the first harvested soon. 2L watering / 2 days flowering booster finish + water flawless finish + water Flash Back #2: ending the flowering cycle and starting maturation. Last plant infested by insects, may be the plant is reacting by accelerating the flowering: buds are not so dense compare with the previous plant. Pretty spicy smell and good resin production. flowering booster finish + water flawless finish + water GMO x Zombie Kush: starting the last flowering stage. Recovering good and was less injured by caterpillar than the others. Pistils are long and the flowers will enlarge soon: need almost 3 or 4 weeks to be ready. Grower master flo + bud XL enzyme + pk 13/14 Royal Moby is tall and late flowering but seems producing lot of flower. With the stress the plant become hermaphroditic, I discovered some bag of males flowers. I hope there is no pollination between the other plants. Grower master flo + bud XL enzyme + pk 13/14

Alles in allem top riecht auch vorrangig nach Käse bisschen sauer, bin auf den Geschmack gespannt. Wenn sie fertig getrocknet ist für's Grovebag dann wird auch wieder eine kleine vorab Kostprobe gemacht 👍 So nach ein paar Wochen aushärten is der Geschmack der Hammer 🙏💪. Vorwiegend Richtung Blueberry mit einem Unterton Cheese. Wirklich extrem lecker und die Bud-Struktur ist der Wahnsinn, sehr dichte und knüppelharte Knospen, sowas gutes hatte ich bisher ni, selbst in den Shops in den Niederlanden noch nie so harte und harzige Blüten bekommen. Absoluter Favorit bis jetz, großes Lob an Zamnesia für die geile Sorte👌 die wird auf jeden Fall wieder gemacht. Hab zum Glück noch 2 Samen und werd auch wieder welche nachbestellen wenn die leer sind 😄.

They coming along so nicely. They stacking on so much as they grow and the terpenes are becoming so nice to the smell. They starting to smell very pungent and piney along with a nice fruit cent. I increased the nutrients by 1ml.

I am not on facebook instagram twitter etc All accounts except this one are fake. Flowering day 54 since time change to 12/12 h. Hi everyone :-) . We are slowly getting closer to the end :-). The lady puts her full energy into the flowers. The leaves are beginning to fall. I poured 3 times this week with 1.2 l each. The trichomes were checked and the leaves were also checked for animals. everything is great 👍. The tent was cleaned and the electronics checked as well. I wish you a lot of fun with this update.

Strain: Auto Fractal by Divine Seeds Week 4 – Early Flowering Stage We’ve just hit week 4, and these girls are already in flower! 🌸 The scent is getting stronger every day, and the leaves have taken on a deep, dark green tone — looking healthy and full of energy. They’re currently around 35 cm tall, with a nice, compact structure. It’s only the beginning of flowering, and things are already getting exciting. Stay tuned — the real show is just starting! 👀✨ Big thanks to Divine Seeds for the amazing genetics! 🙏🌱💚

Boom! We’re officially rolling into Week 2 of flower and things are looking dialed in across the board. PPMs are sitting right where I want them, pH is locked in, and the PPFD is tuned to a T Since the flip to flower, she’s been getting 3L of water each day, and she’s been taking it in perfectly with no signs of stress or runoff issues. I did a heavy lollipop and defoliation about 4 days ago—cleared out a bunch of lower shoots and leaves under the canopy, plus some fan leaves up top that were covering bud sites and couldn’t be tucked. Airflow is much better now, and light penetration has definitely improved. The magnesium deficiency I had earlier seems to be under control. New growth is looking lush and vibrant. She’s back on track and praying hard toward the light. Really looking forward to Week 3 when the buds start forming and the magic kicks in!

This week the beautiful lady was set into final 20L Pot. Just a small defoliation of the biggfest leaves. Bending down the stemps with a scrog net. Light hitting with around 550 - 650 PPFD.
