Real flowering started this week. The stretch just started and the crazy bushiness continues. Did some fairly heavy defoliation on the under canopy and select large leaves blocking light to the bud sights.... but controlling the growth is a balance. Trying to keep as much photosynthesis as possible until I can really tell which bud sites will be the real colas. I did a full reservoir swap with flowering nutrients, and a pH balanced water only flush in between (about 18 hours just running pH 5.9 water). Once I put the new nutrient solution in, the plant just shot up. It was spectacular the difference in literally only half a day. I have noticed that a thin coating of something was on the air line of the bubbler and a couple other surfaces. Cleaned it off before the water flush, but still note a very slight film on the top of the fresh nutrient solution. It's a touch worrying but not sure it's an issue. Will watch carefully.

Hello guys! So it’s the end of week 2 of flowering and all is going well. Been watering every 2 days and, as you can see, we have white pistils and small buds in every plant Not much to say, the ladys are green, stretching and growing buds as it should Yesterday i’ve defoliated one of the critical + 2.0 clone and next week I’m going to defoliate the rest of the plants. Just wanted to test when it is better to do the defoliation so it’s kind of an experiment Tell me what do you think of how this is going

Heeey! 👋 It's week two and everything went quite well I believe! The girls are growing and they look healthy! 💪 During the first days this week and while I was checking them I started to think how I could improve (and fix) what I did in my previous grow, specifically the veg. phase. I wasn't the brightest person in my previous grow because I left the lights at their maximum power during this phase to increase the overall heat of the tent (it was a winter where I live) and while that idea made total sense to me at that time later I found out that was a not the best idea at all 😰. By doing what I did it meant my plants were receiving way more energy they could handle and that meant the plants didn't grow as much as they could 😱😭 So, how could I improve that this time? The best way was to get a PAR meter so I could measure how much light my babies are receiving but those are expensive so the best option after was using the lux meter (or rather the RGB brightness sensor) that's available in my phone (most phones come with one) and by doing that I get a rough idea how much food my babies were receiving (in lux tho, not the best method but it helps to get an idea) 👌 The first days Pistachio and Matcha were getting about 8000 lux and as the week progressed I ended near 18000. Some websites said that amount was acceptable for young plants (they do not talk about the quality of the light tho). For the next week I plan to reach 24000 lux and stay around that 😊 I also think this week I'll move the girls to a slightly bigger pot and with each transplant I'll keep using mycorhizes (Mico Root are mycorhizes) to help the root development. Anyway, that's all for now. Thanks for reading and I hope you'll all enjoy the photos and timelapses I took (the 2nd one looks cool!) Cheers! 😃

Its been an amazing week, now i can understand why Carl Linneus was amazed about this miracle of blooming 🌸 Flowers are starting to grow everywhere, smell isn’t a big deal yet but my girls are just super beautiful 🤩 Colouring is homogeneous ☘️, only a single-couple of leaves showing a bit of nutrient deficiency/excess Critical is becoming literally twice the size of the cookies growing laterally but cookie’s branches are fatter, stronger and harder 💪🏼 Its been a long way but im proud of myself, very pleasant experience, its my first indoor grow and its almost scary how much i have learned ✍️🏼 LST shows an amazing structure and definitely not training your plant its the biggest mistake you can make 🏋️‍♂️ Unintentionally i applied a light cropping and the branches made the bulbs expected, don’t really know if it will show any gains

La ultima nena. Bajamos la temperatura para poder maximizar su color morado. Lamentablemente de la niña que mas esperábamos fue la que quedo mas pequeña y la que posiblemente de menos, pero como experiencia no esta mal, después de todo, automáticas con lo frio de este clima es algo 😥. De todas maneras, sus frutos se ven bastante firmes y resinosos asi que al menos en potencia, no tendremos nada que envidiar cuando cosechemos :)

🌱 Week 2 – Vegetative Growth 09/27: Started the day noticing chlorosis on some leaves. The pattern matches an iron deficiency: interveinal chlorosis mainly on the newer leaves. After checking, this seems to be caused by a nutrient lockout, consistent with the high substrate pH since the beginning of the grow. Lesson learned for next time. Performed a heavy flush with 20 L of water per plant. Runoff dropped from EC 1200 → 500 and pH 7.1 → 6.7. From now on, I’ll water with enough solution to get ~20% runoff each time instead of just ~250 ml. Will also lower input pH to 5.6–5.7 to gradually bring substrate pH down into range. Noticed that some plants have started to give off a light smell 🌿. 09/28: Each plant watered with 1 L at pH 5.6, EC 950. Solution included 3 ml/L CalMag + 0.8 ml/L Coco A + 0.8 ml/L Coco B + 1 ml/L Deeper Underground. Runoff EC not measured (since heavy flush was done yesterday). Runoff pH still unchanged, same as yesterday (~6.7). Yesterday I lowered the light, today increased it back to 13.5k lux. Chlorosis is still advancing, hoping successive irrigations will help bring substrate pH down. 09/29: Watered again but with 500ml this time. Solution (same recipe as yesterday) at pH 5.6. Surprisingly, runoff pH rose higher than yesterday, now at 7.0, with EC 700. Light intensity increased to 14.5k lux. 09/30: Watered with 500 ml at pH 5.6, EC 1050. Solution included 3 ml/L CalMag (new bottle — seems to add more EC than the old one) + 1 ml/L Coco A + 1 ml/L Coco B + 1 ml/L Deeper Underground. Runoff measured EC 700–800, pH 7.0. Since the flush, stems have thickened significantly 💪. 10/01: Watered with 1 L at pH 5.6, EC 1200. Solution included 2.5 ml/L CalMag + 1 ml/L Coco A + 1 ml/L Coco B + 1 ml/L Deeper Underground. Runoff measured EC 650, pH 7.0. Substrate pH still not dropping, but plants are growing at a good pace. Only two plants continue to show chlorosis, while all show a noticeable thickening of stems this week. 10/02: Significant vertical growth observed — most plants stretched about 8 cm in the last 3 days. Watered again with the same solution as yesterday, but only 500 ml per plant. Input pH 5.6, runoff pH still at 7.0, EC 600–700. Chlorosis persists, and on one plant with symptoms, small brown spots appeared, suggesting a possible manganese deficiency. Also noticed what look like early pre-flowers (tiny pistils) on two plants, though it feels early for day 20. 10/03: Watered with the same solution as previous days (pH 5.6, EC 1200). Runoff remained stable at pH 7.0, EC ~600–700. Based on uptake, I plan to progressively raise input EC until EC in ≈ EC out. Gradually increasing VPD range, target for Week 3 is 1.0–1.2 kPa. --- 📝 Week 2 Summary 🚩 Main challenge: persistent high runoff pH (~7.0) causing chlorosis, initially resembling iron deficiency but later showing signs closer to manganese deficiency (brown spotting). Heavy flush reduced EC, but pH correction is progressing slowly. Plants responded with strong stem thickening and rapid vertical growth (+8 cm in 3 days). Aroma starting to appear on some plants 🌿. ⚡ Light stabilized around 14–15k lux, with adjustments to avoid stress. 🌱 Despite issues, most plants are vigorous, only 2 showing stronger deficiency symptoms. ➡️ Plan for Week 3 Irrigation: Increase input EC gradually until it balances with runoff (~EC in = EC out). Maintain runoff at ~20% each watering. pH management: Keep input pH at 5.6–5.7 to push substrate down from current ~7.0. VPD: Raise target range to 1.0–1.2 kPa for optimal transpiration. Light: Hold intensity ~14.5k lux, slight increases only if no stress observed. Monitoring: Track chlorosis spots closely — see if new growth improves once substrate stabilizes. Pre-flowers: Keep observing possible pistils.

Today i changed the light from Mars Hydro300W classic to MH TS1000. Can tell straight away its much brighter and more like the sun. Hopefully it’ll be better and they grow strong! Ive had the ladies in their 2 litre fibre pots and been watering a bit more now that they’re out of the propagator since 3 days ago. Actually i took them out late i suppose, and maybe the reason one of them has splotches is because of the high humidity of those couple of nights i thought it would be ok without the extraction fan for a few hours, however the ranges were going from like 90-70 or something. Anyway they’re big enough now to be outside on their own. Might be a bit late to start nutrients but going to pick some up on the weekend and start them off on Biobizz standard nutrient. Got to be watering more than i have as today noticed on 2 of them the leaves were drooping. Think they should be watered twice and around 75ml per plant but still getting used to these fibre pots that dry out quickly. Last thing i want is to screw it up early and lose any of these precious babies. Going to ask a couple questions to clear up some queries i got. Till next week...

Germination was pretty good, we lost one of each strain. We soaked for 24hr then wet paper towel for 24hr then in a tray and dome for 2 days under a sun blaster 50 watt light for the first week or so

my dry and cure style is this: 4 days of hanging upside down to get water activity lower to around 0.6 in 50% humidity and 26 C temp (i know its a little high but we are in a hot summer right now and i cant get it lower even with air conditioner) and then after 4 days of drying i remove leaves and stalks, trim buds and move them to jar for the rest of their life :D . and in the first 4 days of curing i open the jar door and let hem get some fresh air in the jar for about 5 minutes and close the jar door again, after 4 days of curing like that buds are smokable but they will get better as they getting cured about 1 month. buds are one of the hardest as fucking rocks type of buds! very dense , compact , sticky , smelly , amazing at every aspect growing stage was 60 days and flowering stage was 70 days total (harvested tops at day 63th) the total weight of dry buds was : top buds 174 G + lower buds 55 G = 229 G my overview of strain with details: the seeds: unfortunately i only got 1 seed cracked out of 5 so i will not know how much this genetic can get different but at least i got the chance to grow once of this wonderful strain the plant : in every stage you can ensure that you are dealing with a high level plant , she will get big so you have to control her height LST and SCROG highly recommended , will grow very well with tick stalks and big fan leaves , has good resistance for stress and will respond very well to stress trainings , she really has gorilla power in herself , fresh buds on plant : buds are very compact and dense even from start , fresh blossoms smells like pineapple and mango , 2 different shades of sweet smells like you hold 2 junks of pineapple and mango in your hand and you smell them together, she is a trichome and resin factory , very very sticky , very oily , strong smell dried buds: very compact and dense , hard as rocks , has dark colors with purple hues inside it , it smells sweet smoke : very smooth and sweet like lollipop , pineapple , mango like , after 2 minutes it'll kick in and you'll get higher and higher with every breath , has a strange and especial high mind high mostly

06/12: c'est le moment de commencer à compter les semaines de floraison. Arrosage ce matin qui a été suivi par une drôle de réaction de la part de la plante je n'arose que très peu depuis le début vus que c'est une automatique et aujourd'hui après deux jours de canicule et 3 jours depuis le dernier arrosage. Enfin voilà ce matin j'arrose et les feuilles deviennent tombante je me dit ok: attendons quelques heures voir ce qui se passe et je l'a retrouve dans une forme holympique. Mise quotidienne du LST. 06/13: arrosage 1L *engraisser 06/14: vague de chaleur. ... je sent que je vais vite devoir arroser de nouveau la chaleur et les ventilateurs et pot en geotextiles égale substrat qui sèche vite! 06/16: arrosage 1.2L (engraisser) 06/17: température extérieure 33*C température dans la box 30*C malgré cette vague de chaleur la wcc réagi plutôt bien on dirait qu'elle aime la chaleur et le vent plus que les vario. Que j'ai grow jusqu'à présent. 06/18: la temperature retombe sous les 30°C ouf temp. dans la +/-26° arrosage 1.5(AN ph Perfect grow pour corriger un manque d'azote + bud candy) (j33)

Not the best of yielding strains but the smoke definitely makes up for it, Happy Growing 😁

Ya estamos en plena floración y con las luminarias a max potencia... Evidentemente el aire acondicionado también está trabajando durante la fase de encendido. Flowa-Bloom es la estrella de los nutrientes a incorporar, pero todos son importantes... Así que sigo la tabla de fertilización de JUJU Royal al pie de la letra. Eso si, primero humedezco bien el sustrato con agua, para aprovechar bien la solución con los nutrientes y que no filtre por las macetas textiles. Riego cada cuatro días.
