Harvest was done on a lovely summer day. Since summer was approaching, half of the harvest was hung upside down with the classic 60/60 and rest is stored in a wine cooler for drying. There’s also an oscillating fan below for airflow!

Gente,sono arrivato alla 6 settimana di fioritura,per fortuna sto riuscendo a debellare sto cazzo di ragnetto rosso...e tutti i fiorellini maschi che stavano spuntando...al momento sembra che non stiano più facendo sviluppare,ne nannars ne fiori completi di Maschio......il che è buonissimo 😋...spero riuscire a portare a termine bene la mia terapia, altrimenti mi ritroverò (ma di molto nellaCACCONA...MERDA!!!)..MA no! sono positivo e quasi sicuro che sarà buonissima 😋

The pictures and video are from day 15 since the flip. however i think the plant is now really in day 7 flower as i flipped early to keep the flower space under one square meter. so the plants vegged another week after the 12/12 anyway as you can see they have 0 defincies and a very nice even cannopy, not much space between the nodes is what i like a lot.

Update 1/19 (day 9): * The plants are maturing a bit more so I increased the light output back up to 100% (up from 75% at the end of last week). I bought a light meter and they are getting about 48.6K LUX at the top of the plants (I checked each plant individually and they are getting the same amount of light). I have mostly been not using the side lighting during veg. * Still riding the last nutrient swap at the end of last week (with week 2 ratios) at 60% dilution and in a few days I will get them closer to 80%. * Root development is looking really good for all of them. The biggest plant is getting its second full set of leaves and the others are about 1 stage behind at the moment. * Humidity has been challenging with winter in full force. I have the humidifier blasting right outside the box but it can barely crack 50% at the moment. Update 1/21 (day 11): * The oldest plant started to branch out before I wanted it to so I trimmed off all the small branches yesterday. It didn't seem affected and has been growing strong since. * Starting to see more vigorous growth. * Exchanged the nutrient water after a quick flush with only PH'd water. Now nutrients are at about 73% strength and 740 PPM with a 230 PPM base, the highest PPM I plan to go during veg. Update 1/23 (day 13): * Discovered that water was increasing in PH to the point I couldn't control it. After some troubleshooting I determined that the CO2 bag was working, and working well. My DWC pump was in the box and pumping CO2 into the water which increased the acidity every day. I have moved the pump to the outside of the box so it is pumping fresh air into the water now. * Had to replace the water because of the CO2 incident, the water became very cloudy and didn't look right. At about the same strength level as before for nutrients, sitting currently at about 75% strength. * The Pineapple Skunk is directly next to the CO2 bag and it seems to be working because it is really starting to grow vigorous and is a darker green than the other two. Noticeable differences that correlated with when the water was becoming acidic. I need to buy a CO2 monitor but haven't felt like dropping $100 for it.

Killing it this week. Making the switch tomorrow. I will keep spreading the tips through the stretch but I won't be keeping them low. I'm going to let them get some vertical growth so the future buds can take advantage of all available light.

Las plantas se ven bien, me hubiese gustado que estén en una maceta mas grande. Intentare hacerlo esta semana aunque no se si sea lo mejor a esta altura.

This was my first time with any of this so I messed up a bit by drowning the seeds in the beginning.. thankfully I caught it in time and raised them closer to the top of soil. The next day I started seeing my little girls sprouting. It’s now day 5 and they are looking pretty healthy .... I think? Let me know if you see anything I could improve on!!

Jour42 defolliation and LST Jour45 defolliation Jour47 arrosage avec de l'eau ph6.3 à laquelle j'ajoute 1ml par litre d'eau de topmax biobizz La plante entre maintenant en floraison c'est donc le début du stretch Explication en anglais (Stretch explanations more) EXPOSURE TO LIGHT One of the main culprits in abnormal stretching of cannabis plants is the lack of light. Plants that are too far from an adequate light source will respond by accelerating stem growth in order to get closer to the lamp themselves. Especially when there are many other plants. A lack of lighting can easily cause overcrowding in a growing chamber, reducing the steady progression of your crop and the distance ratio between your bulbs and your plants. To address this problem, be sure to provide enough light to your plants to prevent stem growth. At the same time, you should not position your lights too close to your plants either since this would also result in an over-stretching of the stems and in some cases, the loss of your crop. In addition to the distance between the light source and the plant, the type of light you will use also affects the size of the stretching of your crop. The orange and red lights encourage stretching and result in thinner, larger stems. And conversely, blue light stimulates a growth of thicker stems and a smaller size. When a species is ready to enter the vegetative phase and undergo its most drastic stretching period, metal halide lamps can be used to deter far too long stems. THE HEAT Heat is another essential element that can determine the stretch size of your plants during vegetation. Temperatures above 27 degrees push the stems to lengthen more and more and will propel the potential of sativas to push as high as possible. Heat lamps that are positioned too close to plants create an intolerable environment that will grow large, soft plants that will potentially wobble until they fall and lose flowers in its fall. OTHER CAUSES OF STRETCHING There are multiple variables that can lead to the stretching of plants beyond what could normally be expected of the plant. Environmental stressors resulting from transplantation (when a plant passes from one pot to another) can cause the plant to return to shock. This will eventually trigger a reaction causing a stretch. Cannabis plants that are not grown in decent conditions or do not receive enough nutrients will respond in a variety of ways and this includes stretching. Crops that are not spaced far enough apart are likely to stretch to sting the light to other plants. Due to extreme proximity, the plants will fight among themselves to reach the light, forcing them to expand as much as possible throughout the crop. HOW TO CONTROL STRETCHING DURING FLOWERING Stretching during flowering, you guessed it, takes place when you move your plants from the vegetation stage to the flowering stage. This is a completely normal reaction, as your plants are preparing to bear the weight of their heads. Stretching of a plant at the beginning of flowering varies widely; some plants can double in height while others grow only a few centimetres. There are, however, two main variables that can give you at least an idea of how your plants are stretching during flowering, and how much. Here are these two variables: Variety: Genetics has the greatest impact on the size of your plant. In general, sativa varieties stretch more than indicas and tend to develop long, slender stems. Light: Some lights, such as HPS, are more likely to encourage stretching. In addition, great distances between your canopy and your lights will cause the plants to stretch as they try to get closer to the light source. Stretching during flowering usually lasts the first two weeks of the phase. To minimize stretching, keep your lights between 10 (for CFL) and 30 centimetres (for HID) of your canopy. Finally, choose indica varieties if you have a smaller growing space. HOW TO AVOID STRETCHING In many cases, you can expect your cannabis plants to stretch during the flowering phase. Keeping that in mind helps to make a plan in case your species ends up growing much more than you could have imagined. If the information is available, get information on the standard size of your species and compare it to the size of your growing space taking into account the necessary distances between the bulbs and the plants. TRAFFIC While outdoor crop operations benefit from natural air to naturally limit stretching, indoor crops must assume the maintenance of air circulation within a confined space. Basic ventilation is enough to help the cannabis stems strengthen and become thicker rather than too high. In this way, the plants continue to grow vigorously without reaching heights and at the same time, your tolerance ceiling. MANUAL INTERVENTION For growers who want to get their hands dirty, there are physical procedures that can be done to reduce stretching. Similar to the natural effect that the wind has on cannabis plants, manually bending the leaves and stems will cause tiny cracks in the plant's tissues that will cause the plant to focus on regenerating its wounds instead of its vertical growth. THE TOPPING Topping is a form of manual intervention on cannabis to influence its performance, shape or size. In essence, topping is a process in which a new node is cut, growing from the plant to reduce its size and create a "v"-shaped notch that will eventually form two heads. Topping may be an effective measure to combat stretching, but it is important not to do so when the flowering phase begins. In most cases, an abnormal stretch of cannabis plants will not completely destroy your crop. In fact, stretching can indeed help increase your performance. For growers with a growing operation large enough to contain tall plants, stretching can increase the total yield of a species with more vertical space for head formation. In both cases, stretching can easily be planned in advance and there are multiple solutions to help you with this problem which is all too common. May the force be with you 💪

What a fantastic week. Very impressed with the progress of the ladies. Still no nutes added to the Plagron soil mix, will probably start them on a light dosage of the Top Crop auto feed in the next few days if they look like they're calling for it. Wedding Cheesecake particularly vigorous. Amazingly, one of the Orange sherbert is popping pistils and all four smell surprisingly strongly of orange sweets at only 14 days old!! Can't wait for the next week.

Things are taking shape. VPD in check, girls are just praying and loving their home. A constant 78 with lights on and a small drop at night. Top feeding twice daily for 90 seconds per feed. This is enough time for the hempy hole to overflow. These girls were topped a few days ago and recovering nicely. A few weeks of veg and this room is going in to flower! And thats when the fun begins Follow my son Budxless on his first grow

Buds start swallen and trichomes start cloudy but not yet amber.. Will let her to get amber 10% trichomes , and then start to flushing straight 2 weeks with ph-ed tap water 5.5. Hopefully by next week can start the flushing and finish this run. Cant wait🤞!!

📆 Semana 11 Semana de corte, cerrando el ciclo con los cogollos totalmente maduros, muy compactos y con una alta carga de resina ✂️ Los tricomas se encuentran en su punto óptimo, con equilibrio entre lechosos y presencia de ámbar, marcando una cosecha completa en potencia y perfil terpénico. La Banana Pudding expresa su carácter dulce y cremoso característico, con notas tipo plátano maduro, vainilla y fondo tipo postre muy marcado 🌿🍌 La planta ha completado su ciclo con consumo de reservas en hojas grandes, señal de maduración final correcta. Se realiza el corte en el momento ideal para preservar aroma, resina y calidad de secado. Seguimos creciendo fuerte 💪!

Привет друзья. Моей растихе сегодня 71 дней. Был в отъезеде, не поливал. В связи этим растение не много подсохло. Как придёт в чувства. переведу на цвет. Начал применять LST технику на 19 дне и продалжаю применять её через день, а 18 августа добавил ДЕФОЛИЗАЦИЮ С 20.08 ДЕФОЛИЗАЦИЮ делаю каждые 3,4 дня С 20.08 LST технику делаю каждые 4.6 дней На сегодняшний день влажность 54% 26 дней назад заметил высокий Ph 7.9 С 48 дня Ph не ниже 5.8 На сегодняшний день Ph 6.0 Начал кормить с 60 дня Canna Terra Vega PPM 550 Погладитель влажности, выполняет свои функции. Посмотрю на динамику. Всем мира и добра! https://t.me/smail_seeds #Smail_Seeds

We are happy of the results, but in the next batch we will be put 8 plantas and AC

Everthing lokin good except for the possible males

11/16: I fed them today. Everybody's looking good.👍 11/18: I potted up the other 5 plants in 2 gallon pots and except for a few photos that aren't quite big enough to flower yet, they've got the whole tiny tent to themselves. 11/20: I fed them and sprayed them with BoomBoom Spray and Axiom today and let it soak in nice and slow under low light with no air circulation. All but the Strawberry Pie are flowering..Pineapple Express is a beast. "Red Channel on Quantum Boards.....Engage."

hey all, let's do an experiment with budswelling and without ! i know it will not be exact science but i will give some insight if it works or not. i have got 2 C.banana and 2Royal Gorilla on 1 plant of each sort i have done my budswelling so we can compare both strains and the effect at the end of harvest to see if it makes a difference or not. in my believe it makes a difference but i can not prove it maybe this will give an idea if it makes a difference or not. also i have put an video on how i do the budswelling with scissors or with fingers. i prefer to do it with fingers it's a lot quicker then with scissors. You need to do this on al the buds not only on top. Some say you need to do this every week but i only do it after 3or 4 weeks into flowering.
