Week 4: Growth Spurts and New Challenges Continued Growth and Health As we move into the fourth week, the plants are showing impressive growth. Their leaves are a lush, vibrant green, and the stems are becoming stronger. The transition to the larger 11-liter fabric pots has clearly paid off, providing the roots with ample space and better aeration. Adjusting Nutrient Levels Given their positive response to the nutrients, I decided to continue with 2/3 of Terra Aquatica Tripart feeding schedule, adjusting slightly to meet their increasing demands. Here's the updated feeding plan for this week: CalMag: 2.5 ml/l (Starting EC before adding nutrients: 0.50 mS/cm) Grow: 1.5 ml/l Bloom: 1.0 ml/l Micro: 0.5 ml/l EC: 1.2 mS/cm (600 ppm PPM-500/TDS) pH: 6.0 Each plant is watered with approximately 20% runoff to ensure there's no nutrient buildup in the coco mix. I will maintain this nutrient level until the pre-flowering stage to avoid the risk of nutrient burn due to over-fertilization. Weather Improvements and Adjustments The weather has been steadily improving, with temperatures expected to rise to around 25°C starting Wednesday, accompanied by abundant sunshine. This upcoming forecast is excellent news for my plants, as I anticipate a final growth spurt before flowering begins. Every centimeter of growth counts at this stage, and I'm optimistic about maximizing their potential under these favorable conditions. Strengthening with Wind Exposure On days with good weather, I move the plants out of the greenhouse to expose them to natural wind. This practice helps strengthen their stems, improving overall stability. Additionally, the wind creates a more challenging environment for pests, helping to keep them at bay. Smart Watering Strategy I only water the plants when the pots feel noticeably lighter. This encourages the roots to search for water, promoting the development of a stronger and more extensive root system. This method helps ensure the plants remain healthy and resilient. Pest Management: Observations and Actions At the beginning of the third week, I noticed dark discolorations on the undersides of some leaves. A few days later, these spots turned into yellow patches. I am still unsure about the cause of these spots. To prevent a potential insect infestation, I sprayed all the leaf surfaces, both top and bottom, with a mildly dosed neem oil mixture. Since then, the spots have not spread further. Because these discolorations are only affecting the lower leaves, they are not causing me significant concern at the moment. Regular inspections and preventive measures are crucial to maintaining the health of the plants and ensuring that any issues are caught early. Decision Against LST At first I have decided against using LST. But some of your comments made me try some LST on two of my plants. I choose Tangie and Gorilla cookies to try out and learn some stuff. Blue dream and Banana purple punch stay without any training. Thanks guys for your advice 👍 Monitoring and Care My daily routine involves checking the plants every morning and evening. This includes: Monitoring the moisture level of the coco mix. Inspecting the plants for any signs of pests or nutrient deficiencies. Growth Observations The plants are responding well to the controlled environment and balanced nutrition. They are growing rapidly, with new leaves appearing almost daily. The stems are thickening, and the overall structure of the plants is robust and healthy. Looking Ahead As we head into week 4, I am optimistic about the continued growth and health of my plants. The combination of a stable environment, appropriate nutrient levels, and diligent care is proving successful. I’m excited to see how they progress and adapt as they move closer to the flowering stage. Seeking Feedback and Tips Your feedback and tips are valuable to me! If you have any suggestions on how I can improve my growing techniques or insights based on your own experiences, please feel free to share them in the comments below. Let's grow together!

Started the girls with some LST to see how they all coped and they bounced back well.

It’s the 1st week of flower I flipped the plants to 12/12 a few days ago. There is a lot going on and a lot of cool and amazing things coming in the near future. Make sure to check out my YouTube page. I bought me a DJI gimbal this week. Might be my new favorite toy. The temps are starting to break for the summer. I don’t see it being very long until winter is here and it’s time to use a heater and not an ac unit. All of the plants are healthy. The plants have all grown so well I turned down the light intensity a bit today the plants didn’t seem like they was starting to strech very much. Hopefully the lower light intensity will make them strech out just a bit

Hey growmies, it's the fourth week of vegetation for the HighCloudz and boy is it growing 👌 The fanleafs are really big, bigger than my hand! The plant is doing well on the Plagron feeding and looks very healthy. As the plant grows fast already I'm thinking about switching to 12/12 before the end of the week. I don't have that much vertical space in my growbox and this lady will probably stretch due to it's Sativa genetics. To prepare the branches for the ScrOG I started to bend them outwards. My goal is to get a nice and even canopy once she starts blooming. Stay tuned for more pics and updates later this week 😊 🌿🌿🌿 Mid-week update Even though the big fanleafs were cool, they blocked the light to the lower branches. I removed the biggest fanleafs and did some more LST for the upper branches, bending them outwards and to the side so they will hopefully have a good spot in the ScrOG net. The pant looks a bit run down after the defoliation and Cannabis bondage, but hey, she still has many weeks to go and I'm confident she will be a beauty once again :)

Solo me dedico a mantener la temperatura y la humedad. Le aplico el rootbastic foliarmente con el pH ajustado, parece sentarle de maravilla a las niñas. El próximo riego aplicaré trichodermas en el agua para una mejora de las raíces y así poder absorber más agua y nutrientes.

😇

Giving them half a gallon once. Every 4 days now with smaller amounts of added 19-4-23 to every other watering

gentlemen .... start dancing by flushing ..... I have had many difficulties in the last few weeks .... one of these is too hot ... but my girls have hexagonal balls and go on their way! prosperous and abundant crops at all ... see you around

Day 70 This plant stands out with a clean, well-structured shape built around four dominant main colas. Even though it only developed four primary branches, each of them looks thick, healthy, and evenly spaced, giving the plant a very balanced canopy. The foliage appears vibrant and strong, with a healthy green color and no major signs of stress or deficiencies. Bud formation looks clean and consistent, and the overall structure suggests efficient light penetration and airflow. It's a compact but powerful plant that's making excellent use of its architecture

NICE BLACK-OUT FADE TIPS BURN HERE & THERE CUD AVE TAKEN HER XTRA MORE WK BUT THE OUTDOOR WEATHER WAS TOO RISKY!!

Some are swelling , one is smelling very different to the others . I seem to have 6 phenos from small to tall and rounded buds to thin spear shaped buds. I'm not sure which is my favourite yet but one has a very unique smell almost like pineapple and exodus cheese , it could be that one but I also like the bud formation on another,, we will see

Genetica molto resistente

Wow what a difference a week makes. The one I topic thriving a d growing with no issues. The one that was last week losing all it fan leave seem to be making a great recovery and looking better the ever

Start of week 9! The buds are really starting to swell and look more spectacular every day! The smell is intensely fruity too! I reckon about two more weeks and it’ll be time! Last feeding before flush!

Pas vraiment le temps de poste, désolé les gars, quelques imprévu personnelles à gérer ! Je laisse une petite vidéo pour actualisér. 😊

Good Grow, Amazing experience as always. The next one will have a pump watering for high frequency fertigation!!!

This week I Supercrop all the plants and spred them out over both lights. One more week of Veg and they are ready to explode Check me out on Instagram @growmorestressless

After topping last week,we flipped to flower! I've been training the girl down with LST wire. Want as level as I can until I reach the edge of the light. But I've been increasing the light intensity slowly this run. Normally I just blast them but went slow over the week. Getting water more often now and will install the self watering pots today. Lights at 100% power. Here are the lights details: Medic Grow Mini Sun-2 150W LED Model: MN150-022 Spectrum mode: V1 Efficacy: 2.8 umol/J Thanks for stopping by! You can find the light on Grow Diaries: https://growdiaries.com/grow-lights/medic-grow/mini-sun-2-150-watts You can find the light on Medic Grow's website: https://medicgrow.com/

These two were the easiest to grow ever, not even one issue. Strong, fast grow and amazing terps.
