Flores de Marte :^)

02/14/2026 So I noticed the growth slowed down a bit. I'm guessing it was the low ppm level. Not enough food. So I pumped the water out into another bucket and added more nutrients until it hit 450. I don't want to go any higher yet. Once flower hits, I'm switching to half dose. The thing is, she seems super healthy, if not a bit saggy on the bottom. Maybe that's a sign that she's hungry. Either way, I refilled the bucket with the new dose and we will see how she does. She may be a bit finicky, but I think I got it down. 600 ppm after the flowering stretch. So far she looks great! Good color, no weird issues. Very happy with this plant. The environment is fine today. No issues with the equipment anymore for days. I'll have to keep an eye on her with the new mix to make sure she isn't going toxic. I don't think she will, but you never know. Readings: pH: 5.8 EC: 960 cm TDS: 450 ppm Temp: 67° 02/15/2026 Not much to report today. I'm not seeing much in vigor anymore. If it was only a few days, I'm gonna be really pissed off. There's no reason this plant shouldn't be taking off now. I don't get it. Anyway, the plant itself still looks super healthy. Nice big green leaves. Roots look good too if not a little brown here and there. I checked it's not rot. No clue what it is, but it's very watery. Not slimy and doesn't smell. I think it's just stains. The environment is fine as well. Ranging from 72° to 77° and generally hanging out around 75° just like I have set. The humidity is doing roughly the same thing. Between 52% and 60% while it tends to rest mostly at 55%. Right where I want it. So I'm thinking I'll need to top off every other day at the rate she's drinking. It'll probably end up being everyday when she gets into flower. Update: I raised the light up to 22" and increased the light power up to 60% the DLI is 40 mol. 02/16/2026 Readings: pH: 5.75 EC: 726 TDS: 362 Temp: 67.7 She's looking really good today. No issues but the TDS is still really low. Not super low anymore, but like 362 ppm. I'm changing the water out in a few days. I'll be doing the bloom schedule from then on. She got big. Not tall yet. She's still growing. No buds in sight. Just a happy plant. She's a sativa dominant strain, so she should take a little longer. But I thought that was with Flowering. Oh well. I'm not complaining. If she needs an extra week or so to finish growing, by all means, please grow. The Blue Dream on the other hand has buds at the top already. She doesn't seem to be stretching, but it think it's because she's getting really bushy. Just like this lady here. The environment is looking really good now. Nothing to report. The roots are everywhere now. Mostly white with some brown here and there. Not sure exactly what it is, but it doesn't smell and it's not slimy. Must be stains. It also doesn't rub off like algae would. But they are huge. Nice root ball. I can't even pull the plant all the way out of the bucket anymore. With the size of the plant and the roots being very difficult to move gently, I'm stuck pumping out the water. And pumping it back in. Not that it's hard, but I don't have 2 buckets or I'd be able to pump in a new mix and not have to leave her without water for like 20 minutes while I add like 10 different nutrients. Maybe I'll buy a second bucket. Anyway, that's all for today. 02/17/2026 Not much to report today. She is bigger than yesterday. Slight upward growth, but more outward growth. Bigger leaves and the branches are stretching horizontally. I also counted the nodes. She has 10 nodes before the stacking began. That's like 20 tops. If I can't keep this lady happy for the next 2 months, we shall see a bountiful harvest indeed. She'll be getting a full defoliation right after the stretch. I just did it with the Blue Dream. She'll be done well before the Apple Strudel. Maybe even 2 weeks. But that just means the apple strudel will be a better harvest. Especially because it's still stretching and isn't covered in pistils yet. I hope this isn't another hermie and thats why veg is taking longer. I MUST LOOK! 02/18/2026 I wish I had a 3rd hand, cuz then I could show the MASSIVE root ball. It takes up most of the bucket now. And it's not done. At least based on what I'm seeing as she's still not done stretching. Still no buds too, so she's definitely still stretching. I wonder why she's not slowing down. I've checked multiple times for male parts and I haven't seen anything. Maybe she's just has a longer veg stage. But she has pistils all over the top. Not much on the bottom. So why she's half transitioned to flower. Lol. The environment is looking awesome now. The heater and humidifier are doing minimal work to keep it up to snuff. Very happy with this. Now to keep her happy. I have to check the light distance again I think. Then move it accordingly. She did get a half gallon top off today. It was left over from yesterday. Her readings looking decent. Readings: pH: 6.0 EC: 750 TDS: 375 Temp: 66.3 02/19/2026 So today we did some defoliation. She's starting to show buds, but just. So I defoliated her. She looks good. Nice and open canopy. Lots of air flow. A little droopy now, but that's to be expected. Well, kinda. She's a tiny bit droopy. We'll see how she does this afternoon when the praying starts. The environment is looking really good. Goot temp and humidity. 76° and 55%. I plan on dropping the humidity to 50% next week. I checked the DLI today. It's 41 mol. I'll leave it there for now. There shouldn't be a problem with that, especially because I have CO2 in the tent. So it should be fine with 41. If it goes any higher, I'll have to realize the light a bit more, and or drop the light power. She's still growing. So that's good. The water is perfect. pH is 5.8, EC 797, TDS is 442. Temp was 76.6° very happy with those numbers. Next week I'll increase the TDS to 500 I think. She should be strong enough to handle a good amount of bloom nutrients. Hopefully she's not as sensitive to the bloom stuff as she was to the grow stuff. She seems to be happy with the current mix, and when she really needs the bloom nutrients, she should be really hungry. 02/20/2026 Last day of week 6. 6 weeks in veg is quite the long time and not much to show for it. Don't get me wrong, she's a beautiful plant, but she should be much bigger for 6 weeks in veg. Oh well. She'll make up for it with buds. Lots and lots of buds. The water is really low. Like maybe over a gallon low, but I'm replacing it tomorrow with bloom nutrients. So I don't want to top off and waste nutrients. Oh, so I tried to lift the roots out of the bucket just to see if I could move the plant. Nope. The roots are heavy. The ball is massive. As I said before, it takes up the whole bucket. So it is confirmed, I cannot remove the plant from the bucket. I thought it would have been from the canopy being held down by the trellis net. Well, this is a benefit. Now I know I can use the trellis net and not have to worry about what if. Lol. The environment is good to go. Nothing else to say. As for the plant itself, she looks great! Nice and open. Plenty of light to get to the bottom buds and plenty of air flow.

Not ideal drying temperatures as summer has begun. Starting the dry at 27c and 52% humidity. I will keep a close eye on the drying process as hot temps could dry it a bit quicker

Het gaat goed , niks noemenswaardig. Heb haar in de tweede week getopt, en nu wat grote bladeren verwijderd.

Woche 5 03.08.24 - 10.08.24 Das Wachstum geht ungehindert weiter....! Diesmal konnte ich leider keine Fotos machen, da ich in der Woche wenig nach den Pflanzen schauen konnte. Dafür kleine Zeitraffervideos von der Zeltkamera. Die Pflanzen zeigen leichte Anzeichen einer Überdüngung. Daher wurde diese Woche nur bei jeder zweiten bis dritten Bewässerung gedüngt. Außerdem wurde die Beleuchtung umgestellt von der Lumii auf 2x Sanlight Evo 120er da sie endlich nach mehrmonatiger Verspätung angekommen sind. Die Werte Temperatur, Luftfeuchtigkeit und VPD füge ich nachträglich noch ein. Die Behandlung mit dem Neemöl bringt leichte Besserung. Ab Montag kommen noch Nematoden zusätzlich mit in die Box, da ich ab jetzt nicht mehr das Neemöl benutzen möchte aufgrund der langsam voranschreitenden Blüten.

Glad to see them start filling out. I started giving compost tea and molasses in between feeding and watering once a week. At this point I'm trying to slowly raise ppm without getting nute burn. They are barely putting put smell. I'm guessing the buds will be significantly bigger next weeks update.

Começando a semana 4 com o lollipopping para dar força aos tops buds. Planta com otimo desenvolvimento. Adcionarei 6ml.l de mel para a cura dos cortes feitos. 4 dias depois de fazer o lollipopping a planta começou a desenvolver polem.

Fastbuds gelato is a nice plant to grow, She is really vigourus and lush and has a lot of side stems. One of the nice things is that all the buds even the ones in the bottom are very dense and as good as the ones above. She was not as big as the gelato in my firts grow also the buds are not as big as the first time, but they are covered in trichomes. I like this pheno a bit more then the other one because the taste is better this time, and it was allready phenomenal. So if you want some delicious weed fast i can recommend it. 😋

Hi everyone 🤗 This week the Orange Sherbert Phenotype # 1 and the Zkittlez Phenotype # 2 were harvested :-) Now the Victory Kush 1 - 3, Zkittlez 1 - 2 and Orange Sherbert 1 are ready to dry. All others except the gelato are rinsing 👍 Orange Sherbert 2 will be harvested next week :-) Until then, I wish everyone a nice weekend, stay healthy and let it grow 🍀🌱👌

19.08.2024 officially D140... the additionnal week, have been benefict to this fat lady. as i can see some ambering trichrome on the remaining cola. so far so good she get is second harvest. the 3rd and final harvest should be in 1 or two week, as i will need space in the tent for the camperberry clone, and will give the time to the leftover small and unripped nugget to finish their job. the 1st harvest is dried a d have been trim for total weight of 121.5g. it already smell more fuity that its little sister, it have been put in a growbag for a nice curring. the 2nd harvest give 1454.6 g of wet sticky bud expecting 180g of dried flower as they are more leaffy and have more stem comparing to the 1st harvest. the 3/4 pound is still in sight.

Outside now Day 57: looking good and watered for the first time again. I let the soil dry out completely. Watered with rain water and 1 ml/l Powerzyme, 1 ml/l Bloom Complex, 1 ml/l Cal Mag and 1 ml/l Green Sensation. EC at 1.0 and a pH of 6.4 👌🏻 Day 58: did nothing today other than watching her grow🤗 Day 60: looking good 🤗 Soil is still a little moist 👍🏻 didn't water or so anything today👌🏻 Day 63: watered with rain water and 1 ml/l Cal Mag 👌🏻

Se comienzan a ver los tonos morados/rojizos de esta cepa tan hermosa de Sweet Seeds, vamos en la segunda semana de floración y todo bien hasta el momento, van más lentas de lo normal en la floración pero debe ser debido a las bajas temperaturas, aún así sus colores ya se notan en estas 3 nenas. Seguimos ...

Did a final defoliation and now should see some decent swelling of the buds over the next couple of weeks

My tent is full!....my crude tie back seems to be keeping everything away from the light....not able to get good pics.... we are at day 70 and still drinking a half gallon a day.... seeing nice swelling

Day 71, 29th of November 2021: Nice group strong girl! They are different in sizes and structure but all of them are lovely! We just getting closer to the final week as we just entered to the 5th week of the flowering stage. The only changes I made is the ventilation and the extraction fan is off at the same time with the lamp so only switches on when the lamp does. So this is the set up and and operation schedule now: ViparSpectra XS2000 is on full power which is 240W so 100% capacity. Ventilation: As I mentioned it is off when the lamp is off so 12 hours. When the lamp is on it switches on in every hour and off for one hour. The extraction fan is on 12 hours when the lamp is, and then it takes a rest with the lap together lol ;) Watering pretty much remains the same. Humidity quite is approx 50%, temperature as well approx 26-27 Celsius. Fertilization remains the same since last week, the BioBizz family raised up to be 2ml/L each so it is like 2ml/L of BioGrow, 2ml/L of BioBloom, 2ml/L of TopMax... see the ratio above. The schedule of the fertilization has not changed happnes 2x a week except epsom salt just 1x a week.

Day 65, 17th of November 2020: Welcome back at the beggining of the 3rd week of flowering. They seem to be stopped streching and now concentrating on buds. All of them are gorgeous..... The 2 Zamnesia genetics Gelato and Kalini Asia are pretty and buds are forming nicely. Kalini Asia might strech a bit more but not long. The Sweet Seed ones are really nice and I am so happy because Red Hot Cookies is already getting red.... pistils and around the leaves.. I hope the same happens to the Red Mandarine and Tropicanna Poison also. They are so gorgeous. They calmed down I don't expect more strech. Fertilization still the same every 2nd day with the ratio and mix above. Some lollipopping (Defoliation) is also done. I removed all the LST the plant remains in the same shape from now. The lamp is on 11.30 min and off 12.30 min. Last week was 15 min longer light cycle.... So every week 15 min shorter light cycle until the 5th week. So far -30 min. It switches on at 6 am and off at 17.30 pm.

Hallo und herzlich willkommen zurück zur Farmer's Daughter von Humboldt 😸 Diese Woche haben die Ladys noch mal an blüten Maße dazu gewonnen 😁. Da sich die Blattspitzen nach unten senken werde ich den dünger die nächste Woche reduzieren und PK 13-14 von Plagron benutzen. Ich hoffe euch und euren Indoor Damen geht's bei diesen heißen Temperaturen gut👋

This smell ... sweet, very sweet, like sweets, lemon smell slightly noticeable at the very beginning, but when you touched her... on your fingers start to appear sticky and rich smell of juicy lemon. It is unbelievable that my babie can smell and look so great. I just can't wait... :D
