Hola cultivadores! Estas flores están creciendo! Estuve mirando sus tricomas y están en su mayoría blancos lechosos. Quedan algunos cristalinos y muy pocos color ámbar asi que segun mis calculos en 2 semanas mas como mucho estarán listas 😃. Controlo los bichos diariamente de forma manual. Por ahora solo algunas moscas negras y una que otra araña roja pero nada de que preocuparse. Empecé a darle un booster para floración para esta última semana ya que la ultima hago el lavado de raices. Les dejo una pregunta al respecto. Fórmula del booster: Algas marinas 10% Tricodermas 1.5% Bacilus Suctilus 8% Materia orgánica 45% Micronutrientes, bacterias de ácido y levadura. Algas Spirulina 3% BTI 4% K 6.5% P4.5% Gracias por leer mi diario!

Week 10. I am still trying to get the ladies back on track, as my Ph meter was off a bit. I re calibrated and they should be good to go from here on out. The toads are starting to pack on weight and when I open up the tent it smells very tropical. Super frosty christmas tree structure. RH is around 50-52%. Temps around 73-78 F. Lights cranked up to 70-75% (500ish true watts) They're hungry and I'll feed them good.

Testing for Connoisseur genetics Outback haze #1 7th March 2022 Welcome to week 23 😀 Both of these ladies are looking fantastic as they progress into the blooming stage 💪 Absolute monster on the left is my favourite of the two but the other isn't too bad either . Neither have needed any feeds with the soil providing plenty of nutrition at this stage. 100% sativa's or in this case haze are fairly low maintenence when it comes to feeding . chuck in some manure or something ( I am using guano ) and they will happily grow along nicely . Did you know that Connoisseur genetics are looking for new testers for their newest strains?? to be considered you just need to have had a few diaries with harvests Thanks once again for stopping by 👍 *****Major Update 10th March ***** Plant two developed ball sacks along with her pistils so unfortunately I had to pull her out and destroy the plant. I know some people might think I could have tried removing the sacs and giving the plant a chance . But I am trying to make myself some F1 hybrids and do not want any Hermies anywhere near my females . Now because this strain has Thai genetics there is always that chance they throw "nanners" but usually later in flower so for this one to show itself right on the start of flowering is enough for me to pull it , burn it with fire . Or in this case I'm gonna let the sun solarise it and then it'll be mulched with other plant materials from my garden.

A planta está reagindo bem ao treinamento, continuando a crescer de forma saudável. Durante o processo, acabei danificando algumas folhas, mas nada preocupante até o dia 23. Esta semana, reduzi a quantidade de nutrientes e reguei mais com água. Minha lâmpada de 240W está em 60%. Devo aumentar? Dia 24 apareceram os primeiros pistilos. 🌱

Added hi yield mag sulfate due to nitrogen deficiency. Immediately got better Moved light up as high as possible Starting to have to think about a slight smell issue. I don’t have the luxury of a window to blow exhaust out of a window so I assume that’s my issue even though I have a carbon filter and whatnot.

Overall it was a good harvest, it could have been much better if I hadn't switched to the Cultivator Series line... But as soon as my order arrives I'll be back to Athena again 🙌

2024/05/05 : I was away for a few days, there are buds everywhere now... gave them a shot of bio PK. The height is 48 cm : LED is 20 cm away but I can move it up. I wait to see if Blueberry can handle it as it is, it shouldn't stretch much more. DLI between 34 and 42. It drank 12.5 L last 5 days. Fan leaves are dark green and the smell is present (lemon for the moment) : last watering with bio PK in two weeks and I shouldn't do anything else until end. I like Autopot+Biotabs!😍

The girls have been doing great this week ❤️ lots of fattening and stacking. They are giving off a greasy kerosene smell mixed with sandalwood at the moment and are stinking up my house whenever the tent is open. I have had to run my exhaust fan at level 10 for the past 2 weeks so that the smells aren’t overwhelming when you walk in. Temps have been consistent, and I haven’t had the need for added humidity, it’s been steady around 55-60% I have turned the fans up to ensure good airflow, hopefully we can just ride her out to some fat colas !

Thinking on mainlining

Tag 42 Blüte. Und wieder Freitag und die Phase hat begonnen wo die Bud nach der größe nun dicht und schwer werden. Einen P+K Booster Compost Tea bekommen sie auch noch zum letzten mal so können die Mikroben nochmal pushen. Man sieht auch das die Pistills wieder sprießen und die Buds werden immer mehr frostig. Die Blueberry Cupcake wird sehr schön zart rot - lila ich liebe Farben aber ich bin bei der Hitze etwas überrascht aber positiv. Auch der Wasserverbrauch hat wieder etwas zugenommen und sie Trinken 1,5 liter und die in 12l Pots 1 Liter täglich

I bring down the ph of the rockwool cubes by soaking them for a few hours in 3,5 and then flush them with ph 5,8 water with nutrients in and then let the cubes sit in ph corrected nutrients solution. I let them drain for 10 minutes After a 3,5 hours.

🌸 Woche 5 der Blüte Die Early Skunks sind jetzt mitten in der Blüte und entwickeln sich richtig stark. Der Stretch ist so gut wie durch und die Pflanzen haben ein schönes, gleichmäßiges Blätterdach aufgebaut. Die Blüten werden von Tag zu Tag sichtbarer und setzen schon ordentlich Harz an. Das DWC-System läuft stabil: frische Nährlösung, klare Werte und die Wurzeln strahlend weiß. Genau so soll es in dieser Phase aussehen. Die Pflanzen nehmen sehr gut auf und zeigen keinerlei Mängel oder Stress – Farbe, Struktur und Wachstum sind voll im grünen Bereich. Das Klima bleibt konstant und das Setup arbeitet sauber zusammen. Licht, Luft und CO₂ greifen perfekt ineinander, wodurch die Pflanzen richtig Tempo machen. Fazit: Sehr starke Woche. Gesunde Pflanzen, satte Farbe, stabile Blütenentwicklung. Alles bereit für die nächsten Wochen, in denen die Buds jetzt richtig zulegen werden. 🌱🔥

Had to tie up branches to take the weight of these heavy ass nugs, can’t want to taste this smell orangey as f**k! 🔥🔥🔥 started flush midway through the week.

Lst week , tying down any of the larger branches, & defoliating. I added ac infinity self-watering bases connected to 2 reservoirs from autopots.

Week 6, day 43. Growth: The girls still grew a bit past week, #4 the biggest of them all is 71 cm. Buds started to develop on all 5 girls. I noticed a deficiency and took action but ill explain this down bellow:) Training: I did a selective defolation on all 5 girls. Maybe ill be picking off leaves that are in the way but there will be no more training. Im just going to let them do thier thing. Nutrients: 4 out of the 5 had little burned tips on the leaves because of overfeeding. Some of the plant's leaves are pretty dark so i think they did not like the feeding of 2.5ml Canna Terra Vega and 2.5ml Cannazym. Next feeding when the soil is day will be 2ml of Canna Terra Flores. Issues: I was hoping i was not going to need a "issues" section but im no pro so i expected some issues. So first issue was, Temp fluctuations: Its cold here and i have to set a timer on a 2000w heater battling the cold when the lights are off. I decided to run the tent 24/7 through flower to have a consistent temperature like our fellow grower Rudiak suggested. I added a new carbon filter and put a fan in the intake hole. now my temperature stays between 26 and 26.5 and humidity is also stable around 30 to 40%. This is my solution for this run but not a permanent solution. I think ill be removing the mars hydro 300 when setting up the new tent. It takes one heat source too many out the tent. i can cover the whole tent with the cob and reflector96. Nutrientburns, Nutrient lockout: Some of the girls look like they have a nitrogen toxicity and also some burned tips on the leaves so i skipped 2 feedings. I noticed i also had deficiencies, i suspected iron deficiency but i now think its nitrogen deficiency because the new growth is not effected. They got burned by the amount of nutrients they had last feeding so i assumed something wasnt right in the soil. I flushed the girls today with 24L per pot. with a ph of 6.6, the runoff was 5.9 and managed to get it to 6.4. Because of the big difference the ph in my soil mustve been really low causing the lockout. Lets hope everything will be ok after their first feeding after flush

14 Jul 2021 The plant is still looking lovely, and her buds look wonderful. I’m continuing with the flush of properly pH’ed water chilled to 46.3F. My initial pH was 7.7, so I added 15 gtts (1.5ml) of pH DOWN which adjusted the pH to 6.2. I’d like it to be higher, but working with pH DOWN is so much harder than pH UP! The TDS going in was 75 ppm. Our heat wave is still going strong, and the temperature in the tent was 88F with humidity at 44%. The runoff pH was 5.3, and TDS runoff was 1897 ppm. That’s a reduction of 410 ppm from the watering on the 12th. At this rate it’ll be next week or later till I can harvest. If it does, I may end up harvesting sooner and curing longer. 🤷‍♂️ I’ll have to wait and hope I guess. 16 Jul 2021 I’m continuing with the flush today, and I’m beginning to think I should start flushing more often, yet I don’t want to damage the plant. At this stage of growth I don’t know if overwatering is as detrimental as it is to a younger, less developed plant. I want to harvest it before she gets too far along in her trichome development. She was clearly ready when I checked them on July 10th, and I don’t want her to get much farther along. Today I’m giving water at tap temps because at this point I don’t believe it matters. Everything I’m deciding to do is purely by instinct and trial and error. I feel like a researcher working on viable material that has a known outcome in general, but getting to the final stage (harvest) is detrimental in how the individual works the issues, or problems, and prepares for a desired outcome. Only each strain is different, and learning to adjust to those differences is the learning process. I never knew that growing weed could be so much fun, or as stressful! But I dig it! Today she received a gallon of water with an initial pH of 7.7. I added pH down 5 gtts (.5ml), which adjusted the pH to 6.4. TDS going in was 91 ppm. Runoff pH was 5.9, and TDS runoff was 1407 ppm. Temperature in the tent was 84F, and humidity was 60%. There was a 390 ppm reduction from the last watering 2 days ago. At least it’s moving in the right direction. 18 Jul 2021 The flush is going well as you’ll be able to see once I post my numbers a little later in this note. Her buds are still looking awesome, and she still looks healthy for the most part. Her leaves on the fan side still look dried up on the edges, but not completely dead. Since it’s happening on both of my plants in the same location, the cause was easy to surmise as I’ve noted it before. I’ll be ready for harvest in about a week or less, and then her tent mate will be left alone for a while. Today she was given a gallon of water chilled to 57.2F with an initial pH of 8.0. I added 8 gtts (>1ml) of pH DOWN in 2 separate increments to adjust it to pH 6.7. The TDS going in was 80 ppm. The runoff pH was 6.1, and TDS runoff was 784 ppm. That’s a reduction of 623 ppm since the last flushing/watering. So I’m down into the 3 digit realm now, so hopefully it won’t be too much longer! She smells like blueberry muffins! I’m not even kidding a little. Like blueberry muffins. I’ve never seen a better named strain ever! 20 Jul 2021 Flushing continues in my grow room today. I swear this part takes so long and is so frustrating. I only have myself to blame, but all is still good. She is ready for harvest, but I still need to finish this up first. The TDS runoff shows that the level is still dropping, just not as fast as I’d like it to be. Today I chilled a gallon of water to 57.7F, then got her ready to give my baby. The initial pH was 8.1, so I added pH DOWN 10 gtts (1ml), which adjusted the pH to 6.8. The TDS going in was 74 ppm. Runoff today: pH 6.3, and TDS 658 ppm. Our heat wave is still kicking hard, so the tent temperature was 88F, and humidity was 49%. I’m still hoping to harvest in a few days to a week from now. It all just depends on the flush. I didn’t bother with any pics today. Mainly because the lights went off as I was finishing up and figured there aren’t any changes from 2 days ago to bother. However, today ends a week, so the next will be a fresh week, so I’ll take pics then.

Big Z - Wizard Trees Week 6 Bloom 🌸 She's approaching late flower and has bulked incredibly well and has started to show signs of maturity, with her flower changing colours; some purples and amber pistils appearing as well as her smell intensifying as her trichome count increases. 👍🏻 Temperatures have started to drop now, which is perfect timing for these girls as they all have about 3-4 weeks of scheduled bloom left. ✂️ No work this week, she has good light penetration and airflow 👍🏻 No signs of herming or disease. 💧 Watered every three days with 4L of RO water, nutrients were mixed individually, in order and then finally pH'd to 6.3. I've altered her nutrients to meet her needs for this phase (bulking) of bloom. 💡 PPFD: ~900 ♒ VPD: 1.46kPa 🌱 Days from seed: 102 🌸 Days in Bloom: 41
