May 4th - Day 84 : The babies are doing great. They're drinking good. I'm just thinking one tent might be too small for two plants as the main one is pressing the second one against the walls. Starting to keep an eye open on one of them that I think might be ready. I'm not saying which one, want to do a proper reveal aha.

Following RQS auto guide : https://www.royalqueenseeds.com/blog-how-to-grow-autoflowering-cannabis-n83 WEEK 5: FLOWERING BEGINS#29 12.4. - #35 18.4. #29 12.4. -Opened new week with new pics and basic diary structure -Noticed the temps have gone up to 29'c , raised lamps, will see if i can make the tent cooler by removing some instulations during this week, it should not go to subzero degrees outside anymore. -Opened the side air intake hatch a bit to give more outside air directly in to tent, also took out the ventilation pipe so that the incoming air now comes in at plant height (not freezing temps anymore) -Took out few fanleaves again -Moved temp meter from soil level to middle of the pots -Topped(or fimmed) the purplematic #2 which is non-LST, unlike the non-topped/fimmed purplematic #1 which is LSTd -Should water now daily about liter / plant / 24h (with nutes) : Watered 2x 1,75liters with stated nutes Mostly following https://www.royalqueenseeds.com/blog-how-to-grow-autoflowering-cannabis-n83 on waterings (1ltr/24h, so would mean 4-5liters in my tent) #30 13.4. -Opened 'side hatch' fully -Didnt water, soil was moist -Hopefully got the in-tent temp now lowered to steady 25'c, outdoors about 0-12'c daily for this week #31 14.4. -Once again removed all LST, the form of the plant still stays, might start ScrOG:n next week, possibly -Added 1½liters Coke bottles to each pot, will see how much the water drains in a 24h, if it really doesn't, ill just lift the bottles tomorrow and let it run. #32 15.4. -Nothing here #33 16.4. -Removed bottles, added 1,5liters overall to pots and what was left of in each bottle to each pot -Temps are keeping steady now, also Hum is what it says at the RQS's AF guide -So far this week about 0,55liters/24h/plant, dunno if i should nor can increase the watering from current rhytm, will see if i can draw a water line closer to tent so wont have to carry so much water, or get a 20liters containers or something #34 17.4. -Nothing here #35 18.4. -Water 1,5liter / plant (6liters in total) with normal nutes -Nice grow after removing LST this week, will start ScrOGin next week -Also have to defoliate next week way more as the plants are getting a bit too bushy

Long time since I've been here!... finally back and growing crack!.. well weed... well u know.. Finally got back on here.. these only pics I have left from this grow.. this one been a journey thru and thru.. as u can see that both trees haha. Switched to the HLG a month or so ago and they were light burned pretty quickly.. this light pretty intense.. 50% too strong for veg even at 30 inches away.. thought it was nute burn or overwatering.. eventually solved it. Backed light to 40% and things got 100% better. So if u have this light the less the better at first! Put them in flower this week. So I'll be updating those pics next! They both doing great other then the light burn which I know figured out... next issue will be when to turn it up for flower and when to bring lights closer .. figure once I see first pistil. Signs pistol. Flower I'll turn it up to 50% but keep same distance.

A very nice week of growth. Light schedule has been flipped so I gave them a dose of organic grow at an EC of 0.9. I am pulling them flat across the net atm and hope with the stretch to fill out the net quite nicely . Thanks for looking. Stay safe 😷😷 Grow well 🌿🌼🙏🏻

Both are veging good. Will start LST this week if they stretch out a bit more. It appears the AK received a partial FIM when topped. Should be an interesting grow.

In dieser Woche geht es ein letztes mal in die Breite. Die abgebrochenen Triebe haben aujjf der einen Seite ein ganz schönes Loch hinterlassen. Das wird sich hoffentlich in dieser Woche noch schließen. Ich habe alles wieder etwa auf eine Höhe gebracht und lasse der Lady jetzt noch ein paar tage ihre Erholung, bevor es dann endlich in den 12:12 Zyklus geht. Näheres dazu in meinen Vegi Woche 6 Video auf Youtube: Coming this afternoon Link zur Lampe (Mars Hydro FC3000-Evo: https://marshydro.eu/products/mars-hydro-smart-fc-3000-evo/?ref=docgreenthumb Gutscheincode für Mars Hydro (3% Rabatt): docgreenthumb

Bonjour à tous les padawans et maîtres jedis stretch 15 centimètres (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.
