German version below: Critical Neville Haze Auto | Let the new adventure begin So, it’s finally time to get started with our new project! The Critical Neville Haze Auto had us curious even before the first leaf appeared. Its flavor is described as “sweet metallic”, which is either incredibly exciting or a very creative way of describing something rather special. Either way, it’s a welcome change for us. At around 90% Sativa, this is the first strongly Sativa-dominant plant we’ve grown in quite a while. We’re especially curious to see what the little 10% Indica from Il Diavolo (DS8) will contribute in the end. Maybe a bit more structure, maybe some extra chill in the genetics. We’ll find out. All the seeds looked really good, so our selection process was, of course, based on highly scientific criteria: we simply picked the one that looked the most potent. Grower logic. Now we’re just hoping she doesn’t taste quite as loud and colorful as the packaging looks. We’re absolutely thrilled to be part of this contest and just as excited to see which great Diaries we’ll be competing against. That’s exactly what makes these contests so much fun for us: discovering new grows, getting new ideas and seeing how our own experience holds up against other growers. Since the weather is still surprisingly nice at the moment, we initially let the seed start outdoors. She didn’t get to enjoy that freedom for long, though. Right after planting, she moved indoors. Apparently, her outdoor career was a very short one. New nutrients!!! ATAMI A very special thank you goes to Marc/Mark from ATAMI. Our informative and genuinely great conversation made us curious about the ATAMI nutrient system and ultimately convinced us to give it a try for the first time in this Diary. We’re really interested to see how the system performs in everyday use, especially with almost daily feeding and such precise dosing. A little spoiler right from the start: a 1 ml syringe was included. That at least suggests we’re not supposed to follow the classic grower philosophy of “roughly this much should do” or “more is better.” And honestly, we like that. For the substrate, we’re sticking with our tried-and-tested BioBizz soil for now. The mix is approximately 70% All Mix, 25% Light Mix and a small amount of worm humus. So we’re combining a familiar and proven foundation with a completely new nutrient system for us. Now it’s time to keep our fingers crossed, observe carefully and, most importantly, avoid over-optimizing everything into oblivion. A big thank you to Delicious Seeds and ATAMI for their support. We’re incredibly excited about this contest and can’t wait to see where this journey takes us. Let’s see what the Critical Neville Haze Auto can do with that Sativa-heavy genetics and whether she really surprises us with that mysterious “sweet metallic” flavor in the end. We’re definitely curious and happy to take you all along for the ride. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Critical Neville Haze Auto | Let the new adventure begin So, endlich geht es los mit unserem neuen Projekt! Die Critical Neville Haze Auto hat uns schon vor dem ersten Blatt neugierig gemacht. Der Geschmack wird als „sweet metallic“ beschrieben, was entweder verdammt spannend oder eine sehr kreative Beschreibung für etwas ziemlich Besonderes ist. Für uns ist sie jedenfalls eine willkommene Abwechslung, denn mit rund 90 % Sativa ist sie seit längerer Zeit mal wieder deutlich sativadominant unterwegs. Besonders gespannt sind wir darauf, was die kleinen 10 % Indica von Il Diavolo (DS8) letztendlich beisteuern. Vielleicht ein bisschen Struktur, vielleicht etwas mehr Entspannung im Genpool. Wir werden sehen. Die Samen sahen allesamt richtig gut aus und die Auswahl war entsprechend wissenschaftlich fundiert: Wir haben einfach den genommen, der am potentesten aussah. Growerlogik eben. Jetzt hoffen wir nur, dass sie geschmacklich nicht ganz so quietschig daherkommt, wie die Verpackung aussieht. Wir freuen uns riesig, bei diesem Wettbewerb dabei sein zu dürfen und sind mindestens genauso gespannt darauf, mit welchen großartigen Diaries wir uns messen dürfen. Für uns ist genau das der Reiz an solchen Contests: Man lernt neue Grows kennen und bekommt neue Ideen. Da das Wetter aktuell noch überraschend gut mitspielt, durfte der Samen zunächst draußen starten. Lange durfte sie dies allerdings nicht genießen. Gleich nach dem einsetzen ist sie ins Haus eingezogen Neuer Dünger!!! ATAMI Ein ganz besonderes Dankeschön geht an Marc/Mark von Atami. Das informative und wirklich gute Gespräch hat uns neugierig auf das Atami Düngesystem gemacht und letztendlich davon überzeugt, es in diesem Diary zum ersten Mal auszuprobieren. Wir sind sehr gespannt, wie sich das System im Alltag schlägt, vor allem bei der beinahe täglichen Anwendung und der Dosierung. Ein kleiner Spoiler gleich zu Beginn: Eine 1 ml Spritze war bereits dabei. Das lässt zumindest vermuten, dass hier nicht nach dem Motto „Pi mal Daumen und viel hilft viel“ gearbeitet wird. Genau das gefällt uns. Beim Substrat bleiben wir zunächst unserer bewährten Biobizz Erde treu. Die Mischung besteht ungefähr aus 70 % All Mix, 25 % Light Mix und einer kleinen Portion Wurmhumus. Bewährtes Fundament trifft also auf ein für uns neues Düngesystem. Jetzt heißt es Daumen drücken, beobachten und möglichst wenig kaputtoptimieren. Wir bedanken uns bei Delicious Seeds und Atami für die Unterstützung und freuen uns riesig auf diese Wettbewerbe. Mal sehen, was die Critical Neville Haze Auto aus ihrem Sativa Genpool macht und ob sie uns am Ende tatsächlich mit einem „sweet metallic“ Geschmack überrascht. Wir sind auf jeden Fall gespannt und nehmen euch auf die Reise mit. 😁.

The Superboof harvest was impressive, yielding large, crystal-covered buds with a captivating aroma. What's truly striking is the deep purple hue revealed when the buds are broken apart, adding a unique visual element to its already impressive qualities.

Gave them a dose of overdrive and molasses last weekend. This weekend I'm starting the 1-2 week flush. Lots of milky trichs, with just 1-2% amber. Think another week should be good. Based on hair ratios it's about 80% orange:20% white.

24-02-2022: Decide to remove all the fan leaves of the smallest lady. Just to see what happens. If it is doing her any good I will remove the fan leaves of the other ladies too by next week. Love her without the leaves, she is basically one big bud :)

31/07/23 Everything seems to be going really well even though I haven't added nutriments. I'm planning to use LST on plants 2, 3, and 4 this week, hoping not to mess anything up. I'll have to buy a dehumidifier too because it's very humid at my place right now, and I can't get the humidity level below 65% 01/08/23 I started the LST but only on 2 and 3, and I have no idea if I did it well, but I'm quite happy with the result. 02/08/2023 I have cut some leaves, especially on numbers 2 and 3, so that the little heads are no longer in the shade but directly in the light and I haven't touched number 1, I don't plan to touch it until the end.

This week was a good recovery week, after this previous disaster at the beginning of the week. They took about 3 days to bounce back. I had to defoliate pretty heavily. You can't tell 4 days later that I did. I wanna avoid defoliating too often, as these poor buggers are already stressed. I think in about 3 days I will see if they stop growing in height, when they do... I will defoliate again. All for all, I'm pretty happy that they bounced back so well. I also have upped the EC a touch to 1.5 this week, and I'm only seeing the tiniest hint of tip burn. So I think they are at the max before it starts to really burn them. The rate they are drinking, its a struggle to keep the mix at 1.4.

🍋🍇 Air Lemon x Shishkaberry Anfang Woche 11 🍇🍋 Die beiden Outdoor Damen legen weiterhin ordentlich an Größe zu und entwickeln sich genau so, wie ich es mir erhofft hatte. Nach den kleineren Rückschlägen am Anfang haben sie sich an ihrem Standort unglaublich gut erholt. Ehrlich gesagt habe ich damit schon gerechnet, denn die Position ist für die beiden nahezu perfekt. Sie bekommen dort ideale Bedingungen und danken es mit kräftigem Wachstum. Mittlerweile haben die Pflanzen fast das Dach erreicht. Nach der starken Hitzewelle mit Temperaturen von über 40 °C und den anschließenden Gewittern werde ich ihnen noch ungefähr eine Woche Zeit geben, damit sie sich komplett davon erholen können. Danach kommt das Dach weg, damit sie auch von oben die volle Sonne abbekommen und ihr Potenzial weiter ausschöpfen können. Gemessen habe ich sie bisher noch nicht, aber ich schätze, dass beide inzwischen knapp an der 1,70 Meter-Marke angekommen sind. Ich bin mir ziemlich sicher, dass wir die 2 Meter Marke noch überschreiten werden, wenn das Wetter weiterhin mitspielt. Es ist wirklich beeindruckend, was diese extremen Temperaturen mit dem Wachstum machen können. Innerhalb kürzester Zeit haben die Pflanzen einige Zentimeter zugelegt und zeigen einen richtig kräftigen Wuchs. Der Geruch hält sich aktuell noch sehr in Grenzen, was vor allem am guten Durchzug an ihrem Standort liegt. Bisher ist nur ein leichter Duft wahrnehmbar, obwohl die Pflanzen bereits eine ordentliche Größe erreicht haben. Ich bin gespannt, wie sich die nächsten Wochen entwickeln und freue mich darauf, euch weiter auf diesem Outdoor Run mitzunehmen. Vielen Dank fürs Lesen und natürlich auch ein großes Dankeschön an Green House Seeds für die Promo-Seeds zu diesem Run! 💚 Happy Growing Growmies! 🌱💚

Ich musste sie gießen weil die Temperaturen wider angestiegen sind.

Strong start for week 8, last week of veg. Pretty impressed by these mix of nutrients, total recovery and explosive growth right after watering. And they are totally Bio! Day 55, I did top feeding with worm castings, nitroguano and amino perlas. Tomorrow I'll switch to 12/12 light cycle and start flowering stage. The vegetation stage for Mimosa Evo it's been awesome, althought every single plant grew very different from the others showing opposite phenotypes

Hallo zusammen, wir sind gerade in den ersten Tag der vierten Woche gestartet und es läuft sehr gut. Ich habe heute auch die Oberseite und die Seiten etwas abgeschnitten. ^_^(Bild 3.) Er bekommt täglich 600 ml Wasser mit etwas Vitamin.

Ongoing fun with my plants, hope they still doing their jobs

A planta segue bem parou de crescer na última semana e começou a engordar as flores.

12.4.22 Today is the day I start my first grow using @acinfinityinc 2x4 advanced grow tent. I’m doing the cyclops method using @sohumsoils and @foxfarmsoilandfertilizer seed starter. Got my @barneysfarmog amnesia haze from @seedsmangenetics they also gave me Sour D as as the freebie. The two in red solos are randoms I found in some black trufflez in august no clue what’s going happen with them I seen solo cup grows in YouTube so I might try that 12.7.22 Boom three days later we have lift off one of the amnesia haze broke through only one so far. Happy and excited

All 3 plants are pretty tiny, so happy there are 3 of them. Hopefully they develop their roots a little more before going into flower. Got a new camera so this week should be some nicer pics (:

The sour alien livers looks like she will still go for another week or 2 and the alien vs triangle not ready till about 3 more weeks I prepared a very light super soil for these girls, and now i see they can ea apt for sure

All pictures were taken on day 43 She is definitely in 1st week of flowering and stretched a lot the last couple of days She grew a massive stem. It is many times thicker than the photoperiodic stems🙀 I gave her 600ml tap water with 1ml/l BioBloom, 1ml/l TopMax, 0.3ml/l BioGrow added end of the week

Removed autoflower and put her in her own pot outside the tent. Foliars applied in strong blue 430nm with 4000Hz tone. 20-minute dose prior to application. In essence, you're seeing a combination of the infrared light reflected by the plant, which the camera perceives as red, and any residual visible blue light the plant reflects, which results in a purple hue. I was doing more stretching of the stems, adjusting weights, just a little too much, and it snapped almost clean. I got a little lucky in that it was still connected, wrapped her almost instantly while holding her in place with yoyo's. The core framework is now in place. If your soil has a high pH, it's not ideal; you want a pH of 6.4, 6.5, or 6.6, which is ideal. If you are over a pH of 7, you have no hydrogen on the clay colloid. If you want your pH down, add Carbon. If you keep the pH below 7, you will unlock hydrogen, a whole host of new microbes become active and begin working, the plant will now be able to make more sugar because she has microbes giving off carbon dioxide, and the carbon you added hangs onto water. Everything has electricity in it. When you get the microbes eating carbon, breathing oxygen, giving off CO2, those aerobic soil microbes will carry about 0.5V of electricity that makes up the EC. The microorganisms will take a metal-based mineral and a non-metal-based mineral with about 1000 different combinations, and they will create an organic salt! That doesn't kill them, that the plant loves, that the plant enjoys. This creates an environment that is conducive to growing its own food. Metal-based: Could include elements like iron, manganese, copper, or zinc, which are essential nutrients for plants but can exist in forms not readily accessible. Non-metal-based: Examples like calcium carbonate, phosphate, or sulfur are also important for plant growth and potentially serve as building blocks for the organic salt. Chelation in a plant medium is a chemical process where a chelating agent, a negatively charged organic compound, binds to positively charged metal ions, like iron, zinc, and manganese. This forms a stable, soluble complex that protects the micronutrient from becoming unavailable to the plant in the soil or solution. The chelate complex is then more easily absorbed by the plant's roots, preventing nutrient deficiency, improving nutrient uptake, and enhancing plant growth. Chelation is similar to how microorganisms create organic salts, as both involve using organic molecules to bind with metal ions, but chelation specifically forms ring-like structures, or chelates, while the "organic salts" of microorganisms primarily refer to metal-complexed low molecular weight organic acids like gluconic acid. Microorganisms use this process to solubilize soil phosphates by chelating cations such as iron (Fe) and calcium (Ca), increasing their availability. Added sugars stimulate soil microbial activity, but directly applying sugar, especially in viscous form, can be tricky to dilute. Adding to the soil is generally not a beneficial practice for the plant itself and is not a substitute for fertilizer. While beneficial microbes can be encouraged by the sugar, harmful ones may also be stimulated, and the added sugar is a poor source of essential plant nutrients. Sugar in soil acts as a food source for microbes, but its effects on plants vary significantly with the sugar's form and concentration: simple sugars like glucose can quickly boost microbial activity and nutrient release. But scavenge A LOT of oxygen in the process, precious oxygen. Overly high concentrations of any sugar can attract pests, cause root rot by disrupting osmotic balance, and lead to detrimental fungal growth. If you are one who likes warm tropical high rh, dead already. Beneficial, absolutely, but only to those who don't run out of oxygen. Blackstrap is mostly glucose, iirc regular molasses is mostly sucrose. Sugars, especially sucrose, act as signaling molecules that interact with plant hormones and regulate gene expression, which are critical for triggering the floral transition. When sucrose is added to the growth medium significantly influences its effect on floral transition. Probably wouldn't bother with blackstrap given its higher glucose content. Microbes in the soil consume the sugar and, in the process, draw nitrogen from the soil, which is the same nutrient the plant needs. Glucose is not an oxygen scavenger itself, but it acts as a substrate for the glucose oxidase (GOx) enzyme, effectively removing oxygen from a system. Regular molasses (powdered if you can), as soon as she flips to flower or a week before, the wrong form of sugar can delay flower, or worse. Wrong quantity, not great either. The timing of sucrose application is crucial. It was more complicated than I gave it credit for, that's for sure. When a medium's carbon-to-nitrogen (C:N) ratio reaches 24:1, it signifies an optimal balance for soil microbes to thrive, leading to efficient decomposition and nutrient cycling. At this ratio, soil microorganisms have enough nitrogen for their metabolic needs, allowing them to break down organic matter and release vital nutrients like phosphorus and zinc for plants. Exceeding this ratio results in slower decomposition and nitrogen immobilization, while a ratio below 24:1 leads to faster breakdown and excess nitrogen availability. Carbon and nitrogen are two elements in soils and are required by most biology for energy. Carbon and nitrogen occur in the soil as both organic and inorganic forms. The inorganic carbon in the soil has minimal effect on soil biochemical activity, whereas the organic forms of carbon are essential for biological activity. Inorganic carbon in the soil is primarily present as carbonates, whereas organic carbon is present in many forms, including live and dead plant materials and microorganisms; some are more labile and therefore can be easily decomposed, such as sugars, amino acids, and root exudates, while others are more recalcitrant, such as lignin, humin, and humic acids. Soil nitrogen is mostly present in organic forms (usually more than 95 % of the total soil nitrogen), but also in inorganic forms, such as nitrate and ammonium. Soil biology prefers a certain ratio of carbon to nitrogen (C:N). Amino acids make up proteins and are one of the nitrogen-containing compounds in the soil that are essential for biological energy. The C:N ratio of soil microbes is about 10:1, whereas the preferred C:N ratio of their food is 24:1 (USDA Natural Resource Conservation Service 2011). Soil bacteria (3-10:1 C:N ratio) generally have a lower C:N ratio than soil fungi (4-18:1 C:N ratio) (Hoorman & Islam 2010; Zhang and Elser 2017). It is also important to mention that the ratio of carbon to other nutrients, such as sulfur (S) and phosphorous (P) also are relevant to determine net mineralization/immobilization. For example, plant material with C:S ratio smaller than 200:1 will promote mineralization of sulfate, while C:S ratio higher than 400:1 will promote immobilization (Scherer 2001). In soil science and microbiology, the C:S ratio helps determine whether sulfur will be released (mineralized) or tied up (immobilized) by microorganisms. A carbon-to-sulfur (C:S) ratio smaller than 200:1 promotes the mineralization of sulfate, when the C:S ratio is low, it indicates that the organic matter decomposing in the soil is rich in sulfur relative to carbon. Microorganisms require both carbon and sulfur for their metabolic processes. With an excess of sulfur, microbes take what they need and release the surplus sulfur into the soil as plant-available sulfate A carbon-to-sulfur (C:S) ratio higher than 400:1 will promote the immobilization of sulfur from the soil. This occurs because when high-carbon, low-sulfur materials (like sawdust) are added to soil, microbes consume the carbon and pull sulfur from the soil to meet their nutritional needs, temporarily making it unavailable to plants. 200:1 C:S 400:1: In this range, both mineralization and immobilization can occur simultaneously, making the net availability of sulfur less predictable. This dynamic is similar to how the carbon-to-nitrogen (C:N) ratio regulates the availability of nitrogen in soil. Just as microbes need a certain amount of nitrogen to process carbon, they also require a balanced amount of sulfur. Both mineralization and immobilization are driven by the metabolic needs of the soil's microbial population. Sulfur is crucial for protein synthesis. A balanced ratio is particularly important in relation to nitrogen (N), as plants need adequate sulfur to efficiently use nitrogen. A severely imbalanced C:S ratio can hinder the efficient use of nitrogen, as seen in trials where adding nitrogen without balancing sulfur levels actually lowered crop yields. Maintaining a balanced carbon-to-sulfur (C:S) ratio is highly beneficial for plant growth, but this happens indirectly by regulating soil microbial activity. Unlike the C:N ratio, which is widely discussed for its direct effect on nutrient availability, the C:S ratio determines whether sulfur in the soil's organic matter is released (mineralized) or temporarily locked up (immobilized). Applied 3-day drought stress. Glucose will hinder oxygenation more than sucrose in a solution because glucose is consumed faster and has a higher oxygen demand, leading to a more rapid decrease in oxygen levels. When cells respire, they use oxygen to break down glucose, and this process requires more oxygen for glucose than for sucrose because sucrose must first be broken down into glucose and fructose before it can be metabolized. In a growth medium, glucose is a more immediate and universal signaling molecule for unicellular and multicellular organisms because it is directly used for energy and triggers a rapid gene expression response. In contrast, sucrose primarily acts as a signaling molecule in plants to regulate specific developmental processes by being transported or broken down, which can be a more complex and slower signaling process. Critical stuff. During wakefulness (DC electric current) life can not entangle electrons and protons. During the daytime, the light is sensed as multiple color frequencies in sunlight. Coherence requires monochromatic light. Therefore, at night, IR light dominates cell biology. This is another reason why the DC electric current disappears during the night. The coherence of water is maintained by using its density changes imparted by infrared light released from mitochondria in the absence of light. This density change can be examined by NMR analysis, and water is found to be in its icosahedral molecular form. This is the state that water should be in at night. This is when a light frequency is lowest and when the wave part of the photoelectric effect is in maximum use. 3600
