I was ahead of schedule with my weekly updates so I am changing this week to the true week 6 update, photos are about a week and a half from last week update. Starting flowering nutes tomorrow after flushing all day today, seeing a lot of new pistil growth. I was hoping to have these harvested around week 10 but I’m thinking it’s gonna be more like 12 or 13 now which is fine, just taking it day by day. This week has been a lot of stretching, with the tallest one coming out at around 17 inches. I was gone on a trip for 5 days and left them to their own devices, and returned to see great growth and no signs of any issues. Humidity was at 90% in the tent when I got back which scared me but I saw no signs of stress, these girls really are some hulks. Aired it out and it’s back to a reasonable level now. I’ve been expressing my worries in previous updates about the plants growing too big for their grow area, however nothing is getting out of control and I don’t see them growing more than 12 more inches, which at max could be pushing a little close to the light but should be ok. Starting to get hints of some nice pungent smells which are different than the previous earthy ones, getting pretty excited.

Topped to 4th node. Started brewing ~5l of neem/kelp/aloe Trying out LST clips for the first time. Added a couple of small LST clips on the 4 largest fan leaves. One of the large lower fan leaves snapped off this morning when I was adjusting the LST clips. It looked like it had already snapped yesterday. Adjusted VPD to lower humidity

The temperatures, humidity, and watering volume(if measured) in grow conditions are all averaged for the week. The pH is soil pH. Any watering done by me is well water which is 7.6 pH and 50° F. Any listed nutrients are ml/gallon of soil. Day 1 we had partly cloudy skies, low humidity, and temps in the lower 80's. I watered about .25 gallons from the water hose. Day 2 we had lite showers in the morning, partly cloudy skies and temperatures in the low 80's the remainder of the day. Day 3 we had showers in the early morning until afternoon. Then it was mostly sunny with high temperature around 79. Day 4 we had thunderstorms and rain in the morning, then rain and drizzle intermittently throughout the day. High temperature for the day was 71°. Day 7

5/5/2024 Pistils pistils pistils 5/8 these plants are fucking exploding! Super exciting to see them like this. Pistils everywhere and they’re just STACKING! don’t even see budlets yet, just pistils. The structure of these plants is beautiful. They handle training fairly well. I topped one and super cropped it and did a bit of lst. I was feeling impatient so I decided to see what happened if I pushed the one a little harder and left the other to grow naturally.

Hello. This is the end of week 9 and the beginning of week 10 of veg. This plant has huge leaves. I want to get in here this week and do some trimming up, getting ready for flowering. Got to remove some of those huge leaves that block the light from the lower branches. And get better air circulation so I won't have a problem with white powder mildew. Turned the fans up to medium too to help with that. Don't know if this plant is susceptible to that. Just better to be ready for it. OK. Have Fun. Chuck.

Good day to all my friends and visitors here on GD. We harvested one of the Tropicana XL girls , this is going to be a weird entry because I decided to not make a harvest entry till the other one lady finishes. Unfortunately because of my sticky fingers from all the trimming I did not make many pictures/videos of the grow itsels, to fill this void I decided on including the harvest videos and photographs. Although the final weight will be summed up in the final harvest. We finally see that our problem with the plants may not a deficiency but overfeed...decided to leave the reservoir as it is for this week and add only fresh water next week we will flush the system and for seven days the girls will only drink water. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The SE7000 runs at 520 Watt and about 33cm from the canopy and is doing an astounding job. For anyone who is interested in obtaining this efficient and affordable light fixture here's the link: https://spider-farmer.com/products/spider-farmer-upgraded-se7000-730w-commercial-led-grow-light/ A shout out to Sweet Seeds for the gift of this fenomenal genetics: https://sweetseeds.es/en/ Also I want to thank Jungle Indabox nutrients for supplying me with their excellent & affordable nutrients line: https://www.jungleindabox.cz/en That's it friends, I hope to see y'all next week, bless.

Weather is getting a bit better this week. Almost no rain anymore and much more sun comparing to last week. Blueberry Ghost OG and Kali AK still don't want to start flowering, but they slowed down from growing taller at least, so there are hope of they to start flowering soon (hopefully).

Día 44 (15/07) Wow! No hay shock de trasplante! 😍💥😁 Todas las ramas se han estirado hacia arriba tras el ajuste de LST y se están formando nuevos nodos rápidamente Esta combinación de nutrientes de Lurpe + substrato de PRO-MIX HP es una maravilla 😍 Día 45 (16/07) Ayer tuvimos ola de calor (37 ºC) y han aguantado muy bien! A última hora de la tarde (cuando ya no había sol directo) les apliqué H2O en spray foliarmente para refrescar los estomas Hoy parece que vuelven las temperaturas estándar para esta época del año: 29 - 30 ºC en las horas centrales del día Riego con 1 litro de H20 pH 6,5 Día 46 (17/07) Pequeños ajustes de LST Hay algunas ramas inferiores que no se han formado / estirado mucho Lo más probable es que haga una buena limpieza este domingo, 7 días después del trasplante, para dejar solo los brotes por encima del 4º nudo Día 47 (18/07) Riego con 0,5 litro de H20 pH 6,5 Este domingo (día 50) haré limpieza de partes bajas y tal vez también de nuevo topping en las 4-6 ramas principales 😁 Día 48 (19/07) Día de muchísimo calor con 37 ºC. A ver como lo llevan! Riego con 0,5 litro de H20 pH 6,5 Día 49 (20/07) Para ayudarles a llevar mejor el calor de las horas centrales del día, coloca una malla de sombreo (70%) sobre el invernadero Lo cierto es que se nota que baja mucho la temperatura debajo de la malla! Van a estar más fresquitas! 😍 Riego con 0,5 litro de H20 pH 6,5 Día 50 (21/07) Training session! Hago limpieza del tercio inferior de la planta, de todas las ramas y nudos que no superan la línea del dosel marcada por el 4º nudo (1er topping) También hago topping (2º) a todas las ramas principales La idea es tener 12 ó 14 colas principales para que no se hagan muy altas De paso saco unos cuantos clones de las ramas inferiores eliminadas 😁💥 Para superar el estrés, hago las siguientes aplicaciones y riego: - Riego con 1 Litro de Té Vegetativo de Lurpe Solutions. Preparación: 24 horas con bomba de aire (oxigenación) con ingredientes: Green Sunrise 8 ml/L + Insect Frass 16 ml/L + Hummus Lombriz 8 ml/L + Melaza 1 ml/L + Kelp Hidrolizado 0,25 g/L - Aplicación foliar Kelp hidrolizado de Lurpe Solutions a 0,25 ml/l 💦Nutrients by Lurpe Solutions - www.lurpenaturalsolutions.com 🌱Substrate PRO-MIX HP BACILLUS + MYCORRHIZAE - www.pthorticulture.com/en/products/pro-mix-hp-biostimulant-plus-mycorrhizae

I was selected to test some of Fastbuds new genetics. Seeds germinated in 48hrs and 4 days later it broke ground and hasent slowed down. This grow is in my 4x4ft grow space located in an uninsulated shed. Each plant has a dedicated 150-200w LED from Viparspectra or Mars. Winter Temps in my area spike to -15C or more in Jan and Feb, so this will be an interesting and challenging grow. The grow room is 20-30C above ambient temperature, so there is a little manual and auto manipulation of grow Temps. See my video Lights 50-75%, 30 inches, 75-120w per plant Soil temp: 21-25C Light cycle: 5:1 Air temp: 18-27C

Got some better shots without light and a little video my cam is a bit shit got a video of trichs also in there girls seem to be flushing well started flushing the quick one later than the others as wasn't as developed. Took the 2 tester buds of very bottom under the plants on the first day of flush to try estimate how long to flush for........last pic and vid before harvest next uploads will be harvest hopefully

Northern Lights Autoflowers: Week 10 Grow Diary Repo The Northern Lights autoflowers, Charlotte and Makayla, have reached Week 10 on the deck, and their differing growth strategies are on full display. They are handling the outdoor elements well as storm systems roll across the plains, benefiting from the automated garden manifold design that keeps their irrigation consistent. Here is the status report for the garden. Individual Plant Breakdown Charlotte (Tall / Christmas-Tree Profile) Morphology & Height: True to her established genetics, Charlotte is standing tall and displaying a classic, vertical "Christmas tree" structure. Her central cola has reached approximately 14 inches in height from the soil line. Development Stage: Charlotte is well into her flowering phase. A well-defined vertical stack of pre-flowers and bud sites is forming along the main stem, with prominent white pistils developing. * **Canopy & Support**: Unlike her sister, her branches grow more upright. She is supported by a single bamboo stake bearing a blue flag marked with a "C". Makayla (Low-Profile / Bushy LST Profile) Morphology & Training: Makayla continues to display a beautifully managed, low-profile, and wide structure. This is the result of 100% low-stress training (LST). Her main stem and primary branches are pinned down horizontally using training wires anchored across the soil. Development Stage: Because her canopy has been kept flat and spread wide, her energy is evenly distributed. Multiple secondary tops have broken through to form an even, bushy carpet of vegetative growth with early flower sites just beginning to show across the node points. Canopy & Support**: She is thriving in her fabric pot, marked by a blue flag with an "M". Garden Notes & Observations Containers: Heavy-duty black fabric smart pots are being used. Irrigation**: Green coiled garden hose sections are secured inside the rims of both pots, acting as an automated irrigation manifold distributing water evenly across the mulch and soil. Companion Planting: Small potted marigolds are situated on the deck next to the fabric bags, continuing their job as the pest defense security team. Foliage Health: Both plants exhibit a rich green hue, though minor environmental weathering (small superficial spots or dust from the plains) is visible on some of the larger fan leaves. Overall vigor remains strong. Summary Comparison Side-by-side, these two sisters show how much structural impact training can have on identical genetics. Makayla is a flat, dense solar panel optimized for horizontal space, while Charlotte is maximizing vertical light absorption with her tall central cola. They are a fantastic case study for Week 10!

Ya comenzamos con el lavado! Flawless para terminar con un buen sabor y buena ceniza! Tratamos de bajar la EC lo mas cercano a 0 que pueda. Esta es la ultima semana antes del corte, asi llegamos a las fiestas con flores secas y frescas! Muy contento por como se ha dado todo este ciclo, pero con muchas ganas de corregir ciertas cositas que he ido aprendiendo en este cultivo, muy agradecido con la planta y con este aprendizaje! Felicidad absoluta En la expocannabis de Uruguay pude analizar 2 muestras, f5 y f2. El f5 tiene mayor thc y mas % de terpenos! Mas presencia de limoneno, luego linalol y un poco de myrceno! Mientras el F2 tiene mas presencia de Myrceno, limoneno y linalol. Menos thc que f5 y menos terps, esto ya es otro nivel! Entender quimicamente como esta tu flor, esto otro juego! Saludos Jardin33ro

Day 15 - Fresh tank and not much new to report. pH was remaining incredibly stable through last week so skipped a fresh feed week. 300A doing its job keeping the water at a nice 19C. As noted, girls got topped a couple of days ago. They're rebounding nicely. Will start some LST on the branches now through the week. Will be the usual balance pH at the start of the week and hopefully stabilise quickly. Using the Botanicare kind ratios (Expert Recipe) if not the same volumes so base to grow is 2 to 3 ratio this week. Thats about it for now (Will add some pics and last week time lapse in a bit when lights are on). Happy growing all!!! 💪
