If you are lonely when you are alone, then you are in bad company. Bee pollen is considered a “vitamin bomb” due to the presence of almost all vitamins with an average of 0.02–0.7% of its total content, with a higher amount of water-soluble than fat-soluble vitamins. Bee pollen contains vitamins A, D, E, B1, B2, B6, and C. It also provides minerals such as calcium, magnesium, phosphorus, potassium, zinc, copper, manganese, iron, and selenium, I mixed a bunch of that with some honey and RAW cane molasses to make a nice big bucket of tea. A family friend who is a beekeeper was kind enough to share some honey. The nutritional content of raw honey is impressive and includes high levels of protein, amino acids, B vitamins, calcium, manganese, potassium, magnesium, zinc, and iron, as well as various polyphenolic antioxidants. I am loading up nature's finest sugars, and sweet things, Honey & Mollases. UV-B-induced DNA damage (CPDs and 6–4 PPs) can be repaired efficiently by photolyases. Pyrimidine dimers can be repaired by nucleotide excision repair (NER), or bypassed by replicative polymerases (Britt 2004). The expression of the CPD photolyase (PHR) gene is induced by UV-B light dependent on UVR8 signaling pathway, and is also induced by blue and UV-A light (Li et al. 2015) https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s44154-022-00076-9?fromPaywallRec=true Old but gold. The camera picks up far more light than there is during the night cycle, camera is showing bright pink violet collages but my eyes barely see a thing, about 0.25ppfd in that tent overnight. Have been tweaking the spectrum of moonlight/intensity and watching the responses overnight. Tweak, tweak, tweak all week. PAR is 400-700nm, Overnight UVA in the tent is all 365nm and 385nm, so the meter only picks up a fraction of the light curve that makes it photosynthetically active past 400nm. Of the light in the tent, 0.25ppfd is from UVA Looks like It makes them 🕺 🕺 💃 all night. Better flower soon or ill be screwed for space, they are stretching, but is it "the stretch"? She has fire in her belly. Growing crops with insufficient light (i.e., below “optimal,” as defined here) limits the yield potential, which in turn wastes the other production inputs including labour, water, nutrients and electricity. As lighting fixture is one of the most expensive investment of the production, what is the relationship between light intensity and yield? Potter and Duncombe (2012) grew cannabis plants with varying canopy-level PPFDs during the flowering stage and found that increasing PPFD from 400 to 900 μmol·m−2·s−1 increased yield an average of 1.3 times higher, across seven cultivars, with no light intensity treatment effects on floral cannabinoid concentrations. Vanhove et al. (2011) found that cannabis yields were 1.3 to 3.1 times higher (depending on cultivar) when plants were grown under approximately 1000 μmol·m−2·s−1 compared to approximately 450 μmol·m−2·s−1 during the flowering stage.It was predicted that cannabis yield would exhibit a saturating response to increasing Light intensity, thereby signifying an optimum light intensity range for indoor cannabis production. However, a new research from Morrison (2021), after 81 days‘ experiment, found that When plants grew under LI ranging from 1200 to 1800 μmol·m–2·s–1 provided by light emitting diodes (LEDs), inflorescence yield increased linearly as LI increased up to 1800 μmol·m–2·s–1. "Cannabis will not stop flowering if the lights are turned on for a few minutes once or twice during the 2-month-long flowering cycle. If a light is turned on for 5 to 30 minutes—long enough to disrupt the dark period—on 3 to 5 con­secutive nights, plants will start to revert to vegetative growth." "Less than one half of one foot-candle of light (0.1ppfd) from sunlight will prevent cannabis from flow­ering. That is a little more light than is reflected by a full moon on a clear night. Well-bred indica-dominant plants will revert within three days. Sativa-dominant plants take four to five days to revert to vegetative growth. Once they start to revegetate, it can take from four to six ad­ditional weeks to induce flowering again!" Guess ill find out my answer soon.

Начинаю растить новый сорт моим собственным методом. Я его называю корона, хотя больше подходит название Multiple Symmetric Lollipopping. Это что-то среднее между Main Lining, Low Stress Training и SoG. Суть заключается в том, что мы делаем Topping выше 4-го этажа и затем все 8 основных веток разводим по сторонам. Четыре нижние ветки по диагонали, четыре верхние крест-накрест. В итоге получается эдакий равномерный круг веток, растущих на одной высоте, так как мы легко можем контролировать высоту каждой ветки. Принципиально можно и 10 и 12 веток делать, но мне хватает 8. Желательно иметь широкий горшок, чтобы было куда разводить ветки. Надеюсь когда-нибудь появится новый метод MSL с моим авторством. Итак, взял две семечки, а победитель по росту переедет в большой горшок. Гроубокс у меня самодельный. Две лампы HLG 100, но по факту обе работают по 50ватт. Встроено два фильтра и два канальных вентилятора. Один работает постоянно, второй включается автоматически при превышении верхнего порога температуры. Дверки на защелках, проклеены уплотнителем чтобы не пробивался свет и запах. Внутррение габариты от лампы ШДВ - 67х48х68 сантиметров. Помещается два куста, но я предпочитаю растить только 1. Как проращиваю семена? 1. Они всегда хранятся в холодильнике. При попадании в теплую и влажную среду семена получают сигнал к росту и быстрее всего прорастают, буквально за 14-16 часов. 2. Берем нужные семена и кладем в теплую воду (18-22 градуса Цельсия) на 3-4 часа. Это нужно, чтобы скорлупа размягчилась, а семечко согрелось и получила достаточно влаги. 3. Слегка маникюрными щипчиками расщепляем скорлупу. Делается специально, чтобы как можно раньше корешок начал получать воздух. Чем быстрее раскрывается скорлупа, тем быстрее начинает прорастать корень и уменьшается риск загнивания. 4. Садим в таблетку или сразу в готовый субстрат. Обычно я сажу сразу в готовый субстрат, но в этот раз решил попробовать в торфяной таблетке, чтобы выбрать победителя по активности роста. Как я готовлю кокосовый субстрат? 1. Я никогда не использую старый субстрат. Во-первых, я применяю микоризу и множество других грибков и бактерий, которые для маленьких ростков будут слишком концентрированными и могут навредить. Во-вторых, в старом кокосе очень много старых корней, которые обязательно будут гнить. С одной стороны это хорошо, но по факту это приводит к загниванию субстрата и образованию плесени. 2. Беру половину брикета, развожу в воде, промываю в проточной воде (попеременно горячей и холодной) пока не вымоется вся морская соль и затем размешиваю с вермикулитом и перлитом. 3. Заливаю полученный субстрат на 15-20 минут удобрением Cal-Mag (1000 PPM), чтобы субстрат набрал катионов кальция и магния, иначе первую неделю полива кокос будет забирать эти вещества из полива, а растение будет голодать. Если измерить PPM воды после внесения Cal-Mag и через 20 минут, то увидите, что PPM упадет до 600-700 единиц. Это кокос вобрал в себя соли. 4. Заливаю удобрением, в случае трех-компонентного Grow-Micro-Bloom в соотношении 3-2-1, PPM 1000. Также оставляю на 15-20 минут. Нужно это затем, чтобы кокос теперь равномерно вобрал в себя другие катионы (железо, цинк, медь, калий, ну и азотистые соединения, как то мочевина и аммоний). То есть мы целенаправленно вымываем излишки кальция и магния. 5. Затем, уже поливаем нашим удобрением с PPM 600-700 чтобы чуток снизить концентрацию. 6. В этот готовый буферизированный субстрат потом и попадет пророщенное семечко. Как я поливаю? В течение первых трех недель я поливаю через день. И не важно, высох субстрат или не высох. Кокосовый субстрат это позволяет. Далее приходится поливать каждый день, потому что развитая корневая система осушивает весь субстрат за сутки под чистую. Никогда не поливаю чистой водой - это только нарушает PH внутри субстрата и приводит к стрессу растения. Если нужно промыть субстрат, то готовится несколько поливов с нужным удобрением. Вспомните про то как после промывки падает PPM. Вот тоже самое происходит и при поливе чистой водой: питательные элементы вымываются с кокоса и когда вы начинаете "кормить" растение, оно голодает, потому что кокос все отбирает, чтобы делиться "потом", когда "насытится". PH на веге всегда около 5.6-5.8, на цветении 5.8-6.1. PPM стараюсь держать на уровне 700. На цветении 1200-1400. Если вы дочитали до этого момента и увидели страшную цифру в 700 PPM, то на самом деле ничего страшного в этом нет. Если вы возьмете обычную землю, разведете водой и померяете PPM, то он там будет куда более высокие показатели. На самом деле растение способно жить даже при PPM в 5000 единиц. Поливать растение с PPM 300 - это слишком бедная смесь. Как правило, все руководства ориентируются на земляной грунт, а производители страхуются и дают заниженные нормы, чтобы покупатели случайно не сожгли свои растения. Но если если у вас есть PH и TDS измерительные приборы, то вы смело можете щедро кормить свое растение, а оно вам ответит буйным ростом и плотными шишками. Всегда руководствуюсь золотым правилом проверки дренажа: PPM растет PH падает: у растения несварение и что-то оно не может усвоить. PPM падает PH растет: растение голодает, либо нарушен ионно-катионный баланс. PPM стоит PH растет: все идет хорошо. В каждом случае нужно понимать что было сделано ранее и корректировать действия. Итак: 19.01.2021, в 12:00 замочил семечки в воде 19.01.2021, в 16:00 расколол аккуратно семечки и посадил в торфяную таблетку 19.01.2021, в 23:00 уже одна семка начала вылезать из торфа, хотя утапливал. И это всего лишь прошло 7 часов. Чувствую кандидат на пересадку уже показал себя. 20.01.2021, в 16:00 эта же семечка уже отрастила корешок и полностью показалась из торфа. 21.01.2021, в 10:00 выскочило из торфа и готова расправить листики. Вторая семечка пока сохраняет молчание. 21.01.2021, в 17:00 росток вот вот начнет разрывать скорлупку чтобы выпустить первые семядоли. Перенес в гроубокс под лампу. 23.01.2021, в 10:00 умер... так и не увидев свет. А вот её младшая сестра неожиданно вылеза из торфа и вытянулась за ночь на 2 сантиметра, пока были отключены лампы. Пришлось ей вручную снимать скорлупу. 23.01.2021, в 15:00 младшая сестра уже показала хвостик корня с другой стороны торфяной таблетки. Завтра надо будет пересаживать уже в нормальный горшок 24.02.2021, в 14:00 девочка переехала в новый дом. Первые листики стали размером с семядолями. Поздравления принимаются, мы проросли.

26. Oktober Runtz keimt minimalistisch. Ähnlich wie bei beiden Cookies. Runtz ist jetzt im 11l Topf Beten wir dass es klappt Tropimango alles gut Cookies gelato alles gut. 28. Oktober Cookies gelato wächst nun deutlich schneller. Tropimango wird ebenfalls schneller. Wachstumphase hat begonnen. Habe das erste mal den Wurzel Dünger und den blattdünger angewandt. Runtz noch nicht sichtbar 29. Oktober Die runtz ist klein sichtbar Cookies gelato macht was es soll Tropimango auch 1. November Cookies Gelato ist nun 17 Tage alt und sieht tip top aus. Das sehr misslungene Umtopfen hat sie gut verkraftet. Tropimango ist nun 14 Tage alt. Sie ist deutlich kleiner und die Blätter haben eine interessante Färbung. Sie wächst deutlich langsamer (Genetik ist auch deutlich kleiner) aber wirkt sehr lebendig. Runtz ist nun 3 Tage alt und sieht gut aus.

Oops! Well, the two days in the 80s and nights in the 70s sent my girls into high desert flower! That and two out of season rain days and BOOM! We are now a flower farm! To be honest, I wasn’t sure at first- then, yesterday morning, three bees bee lined and flew to each of the bud sites. My hand wringing (was it or wasn’t it flowers?) was answered - by Mother Nature herself without muss or fuss. No more salad! Flowers! Also, a shock to no one, I bought a ruler yesterday, and while I listed my plants as 29 inches, I sadly have no idea what 12 inches really is. They are about 18 after supercropping. Needless to say other measurements were, sadly reconsidered…. 7/31 transferred banana mango to a 30 Gallon pot 💪

I got really busy towards the end and probably made a few mistakes. Probably cut it down a bit early too but she wasnt able to hold herself up anymore and broke some stems. All in all compared to the outcome of my last grow this one plant doubled my outcome so I dont believe I maybe improving on my growing skills. I have her curing in jars right now. Out of the sample I have tried I really enjoy it. Smells like candy, tastes like candy with a little extra something something at the end. Smooth, burns clean I couldn't be happier.

Weight on the first two Charlottes Angels are 33g and 25g. Grown about ten of these seeds and can't seem to get a decent yield with them. Day 102 Malana Bomb harvested. Weight on her is 72grams. Happy with that. I was thinking around 2ozs. Really tight buds liked the extra wattage I was giving at around 200watts Day 105 Orange Bud harvested weight is 48grams. Was expecting more but still some nice buds Just feeding the last 2 plants overdrive, bud candy and drip Clean at 550EC

Day 36. Girls are flying !!! Was comparing my previous dairies here and they look really good, have in mind, two heavy waves of training involved, each time i had a bag full of leaves ... One more training and i think on day 42 its 24 hours of darkness and FLOWEEEEERRRR ;)) Day 37. Its hard to add anything, because everything going kind off well ;)))) Last night watered them with 6.2 ph, they stop drinking, at least as fast as before, usually my ph is 6.5-6.8, but sometimes i drop to 6.2-6.4 for one feed in a month or so ..SweetSeeds don't like that trick ... Still leaves praying, loads of new grows after each night , just Kushes overgrew others a bit. Will supercrop them soon. Day 39. All is going smooth, they drink biobizz nutes feed in one day, phed water in 2, so you would want to overfeed them, Kushes could eat more 4sure now. Installed last wall fan. Now setup is full... Kind off ;))) need to find exhaust silent and powerfull 5 inch fan ... Day 41. This is official - JUNGLES !!! ;) Change in plans : Killer Kushes are moved to veg/dry tent, Autos started there will come instead of them. Thinking that way ill lower canopy a bit and make more space for rest 8. Tomorrow it will be done together with heavy training for Skunks and Cheeses. They will be sent to flower at the end of next week. Happy Growing !

Yet another reliable fastbuds run. OG Kush grew to a very large bushy girl, looking back I should have lollipoped a bit better, seem to be left with a lot of popcorn buds. But I'm still happy and can't wait to try her out.

Hey now, I hope everyone is having a great holiday weekend. This little deformed lady is still going fairly strong, she is not growing quite as fast as the other two autos in the tent, but I think she could still put out some nice flowers. I am still feeding her silica, cal mag, and just veg nutrients. I did top her yesterday on day 34 as she is still not showing many pre flowers, so I just topped her so she doesn't get too tall. I have not done much LST on her yet but I may do some this week. I did change the Medic grow spectrum to the F1 spectrum this week which is the flower spectrum. I am also running the UV/IR bar for about 75 minutes every day before lights off, and I now have the light cranked up to 100%. I will start to transition to flower nutrients probably next week, depending on how tall she gets and how soon she transitions to flower production. Not much to do this week except keep the reservoir clean, full, and in the proper PH range. If any colas get crazy higher than the others I will correct, but other than that she can do her thing from here on out. Thanks for stopping by, Stay Safe and Blaze On!!! 💪 Website: https://medicgrow.com/ https://growdiaries.com/grower/medicgrowled

Hey Cannafam Happy Tuesday, My little Guava girl has had another good week due again to good weather 😊 Although not as hot as last week its been Sunny everyday apart from a little rain Friday morning, its been really consistant with daytime temps of 21c -23c Tuesday - Sunday, yesterday thing crept up fo 25c and today things are hotting up again at 27c! nights with last days of heat are now an average 18c. Humidity has remained high in the range of 70-90% and Daylight hours are currently at 16 hrs 13 minutes. I've been on two minds most of the week on whether or not she should receive any training, due to what seems like very short intrrnodal spacing, although i do want a low profile as it makes her blend into her surroundings easier in case unwanted visitors. On Saturday i decided to FIM her, mainly because i've never FIMed an auto, but also topping would slow her down. Since then recovery has been fine and auxilary shoots have started growing out well, im going to train these out to the side of the pot hopefully in a nice formation. Also today shes just ticked over into flower, so hopefully any stretch should also be directed sideways. She has been dined on this week slightly by a snail or slug but luckily i think it must have been a baby as only slight damage. This was entirely my fault as after a good watering i didn't replace the diamatous earth and she wasn't placed near my other grow which has a beer trap next to it, this has now been replenished! All in all another solid week and really happy with our weather and her progress 😊 Have a chilled week and thanks for stoppin by ✌️💚

Fed once this week with a weak feed including top max. I use kombucha vinegar as pH down. Water from my tap is ph6.8-7.0 and 38-42ppm so I might start using calmag supliment as the ppm at my old house used to come out of the tap at ph7. 2 and 200-220ppm. I had 2 plants that didn't like the light at 30000 lux and started bleaching so I took them out. I've defoliated today day 35 as humidity was getting over 80% and also to let light to the lower bud sights. Pre flower pistils showed on some plants around day 33 (some still have none) so I'll consider this the end of veg start of flower. The kalimist indica pheno is still not showing pre flower pistils but is always hard to force flowering when it's not mature for some reason. It's always 7-14 days behind everything else 🤔

🌿 Woche 17 – Mentha de Croco 🇩🇪 Ein weiterer Meilenstein ist erreicht! 🚀 Die linke Mentha de Croco ist nun etwa 190 cm groß, die rechte hat mit ca. 202 cm bereits die 2-Meter-Marke geknackt! 📏🎉 Besonders spannend ist die Veränderung der Wuchsform. Während beide Pflanzen anfangs wie schlanke Wolkenkratzer in die Höhe wuchsen, entwickeln sie nun immer mehr die typische Tannenbaum-Struktur 🌲. Vor allem die linke Pflanze hat eine wunderschöne, gleichmäßige Verzweigung ausgebildet und sieht einfach fantastisch aus. 💚 Aktuell bekommen beide Pflanzen täglich etwa 5 Liter Wasser 💧. Das 30-Liter-Topfvolumen macht sich inzwischen deutlich bemerkbar und scheint das weitere Höhenwachstum zunehmend zu begrenzen. Trotzdem entwickeln sich die Pflanzen weiterhin hervorragend. Heute gibt es wieder eine Gabe meines selbst hergestellten Ackerschachtelhalm-Brennnessel-Ferments mit 10 ml pro Liter Wasser 🌿. Ansonsten läuft alles absolut problemlos – keine Mängel, keine Schädlinge und keine Krankheiten. Genau so wünscht man sich einen Outdoor-Grow! 💪☀️ Ich bin wirklich beeindruckt von der Robustheit und Schönheit dieser Genetik. Bisher machen die beiden einfach alles mit und belohnen mich Woche für Woche mit einer beeindruckenden Entwicklung. ❤️🌱 🌿 Week 17 – Mentha de Croco 🇬🇧 Another milestone has been reached! 🚀 The left Mentha de Croco is now around 190 cm tall, while the right one has officially broken the 2-meter mark, reaching approximately 202 cm! 📏🎉 What’s especially interesting is how their growth pattern has changed. Instead of the tall, column-like “skyscraper” appearance they had earlier, both plants are now developing a beautiful Christmas tree structure 🌲. The left plant in particular has formed an incredibly symmetrical branching pattern and looks absolutely stunning. 💚 At the moment, each plant receives around 5 liters of water every day 💧. The relatively small 30-liter pots are now clearly becoming the limiting factor for further vertical growth, but despite that, both plants continue to thrive. Today they’ll receive another feeding with my homemade nettle and horsetail ferment at a concentration of 10 ml per liter of water 🌿. Apart from that, everything is going perfectly—no nutrient deficiencies, no pests, and no diseases. Exactly what you hope for in an outdoor grow! 💪☀️ I’m truly impressed by the resilience and beauty of this genetics. These plants have handled every challenge so far and continue to reward me with outstanding growth week after week. ❤️🌱

Plants have grown well this week with only minimal interference. The temperature and humidity are holding at a good place (around 70-72 degrees and 65% humidity). Pretty sure that Demeter was just light burn. We moved the lights back a bit, and new growth is coming in good. Kini has taken the lead and is really taking off. Demeter is recovering, and Alice & Lorraine are 6 days behind but catching up quickly. They are starting to eat/drink more, and it will be time for the first res change this week for everyone. We noticed a few bugs in the basement this week, and may have gone overboard on the diatomaceous earth (the white powder all over everything). Also added another 4-port air pump this weekend, and another 4x2 stone in each bucket.
