Sieht alles gut aus. Ich hab die Beleuchtungszeit in der Mitte der Woche auf 15 Stunden und jetzt auf 14 Stunden gestellt. Die Lampen stehen jetzt auf 60%. Das Gesamtsystem zieht aktuell 190 Watt und hat bisher 100 kWh verbraucht.

21.06. OG KUSH# Day 56# On the OG, thrips appeared in a couple of places, but nothing serious, I regulated it right away, and if it does, it can't do anything to the plant outside, except to slow it down a bit, but come on. With a little delay because I'm a lazy stoned person, and in addition the responsibilities regarding the plants are already starting to grow, and I also have a lot of work around the garden and then I don't always arrive in time to release the update. The plants are progressing well, but now they are already hungry, so the next watering is for food. Two days ago they were topped for the third time, I also topped the two highest side branches. Yesterday was the end of their eighth week, the pictures are also from yesterday. Last night I sprayed them with SMC for prevention, but none of those pests can harm the plant outside as well as inside..first of all, the plants are much bigger, and therefore have much more leaf mass, and secondly, it is nature, there are many of them in nature, the only thing that can destroy them all are caterpillars during flowering and mold when the humidity is too high or when there are frequent rains, everything else does not worry me at all. Tomorrow I will move them somewhere where there is a lot less grass because now they have already filled this space and they can't expand any further, so in order for them not to get too long and to go wider I have to move them where the grass and other plants won't bother them. Stay High and Keep Growing!!!

Alright grow cycle, mistakes, improvements, etc... She did stay in veg for too long, her growth was slow and not the best and so she took quite long, next time i'll be there from the beginning so I can take care of her throughout. But her growth is really fun. It is a tall growing sativa with fairly tight noding when trained accordingly, producing long filled colas. The buds grow fairly dense and fluffly but do air out a little when dried. Trichome production was pretty impressive as well as terpene production. She had thrips since her early days but did not seem to mind them at all. I did spray them initially but once flower started I stopped. I believe predatory mites might have been feeding on the pupae in the soil, if that is what this specific species of thrips did, the reason I say that is I could never see adults only larvae. Whatever the case maybe they were there but the population never really increased. Something I did not mention during the grow is that those plants were played music during the days, music that is apparently developed for plants. The 10L pot was WAY too small for a true sustainable living organic and to provide enough space for the plant, that was a mistake, I'd say a 20L would be the bare minimum and still. The bigger the better. The hempy transfer did not hurt the plant and I believe even helped to some extent, BUT, I am still running test on the subject and so can't confirm anything, here are my observations Roots did not colonize the perlite, a little on top and the sides but that was it, I was expecting to see a big root mass in there. I believe hempy are great for salt fert as it hold a soup of nutes where the plant can feed from since the coco only holds very little Whereas in nature most nutrient are in the top soil where the highest amount of decomposition happens, this is where the highest microbial activity happens and so where the plant will find food. Living organic is trying to reproduce nature and so there is no need for the plant's roots to gather at the bottom of the pot. Although it could have potentially provided the plant access to a larger amount of water and possibly more oxygenation of the pot. Those are all theories, please speak up if you have other proofs. In conclusion , unless i get proven otherwise by someone or my latest running experiment , I will not be using hempies again as I believe it brings more complication and issues than a simple fabric pot. The lights, The 600w at the start was good, then I decided to add a 400w...😂 That was completely overkill and not necessary. Waste of electricity. And they started suffering from too much light it seems at some point, I raised the light by a good 30 cm and they were fine. 600 is more than enough. I am happy about how the soil performed but it has room for improvements. As for the watering technique I have been watering large ammount every few days, next time I will be giving constant small amount of water each day and a soak every week or so, I believe the soil might perform better under those conditions. She was also an easy plant to harvest whit her long colas which had very little foliage, I do trim in excess as I like my buds extra clean but the buds are not excessively bushy. The trims were use to make some bubble hash, around 100g of wet trims yielded around 1.5-2g of bubble hash. I did add a negative effect but only because it wouldn't give me a smile otherwise, but to be honnest it barely dries your mouth. The soil is going to be recycled and reused in a next grow. I can't think of anything else at the moment but if you have any question don't hesitate.

Having trouble keeping humidity up as my grow is in the basement. Have home humidifier set to 35% but not enough even with a humidifier in the tent set to 60. Lights out isn’t an issue, it’s when lights on and the 6” exhaust is running that my temps are good but rh too low. UPDATE 12/21: The girls are back on track I fixed the whole home humidifier and added more humidifiers so my humidity is up to 50s. Plants are extremely healthy and the soil ecosystem is dreamy. Lots of worms at subsurface, cover crop is spreading and growing well and the plants are loving life.

Hello again 😊✌️💚 The Fat Monkey Auto draws the last nitrogen from the leaves and think another 10-14 then a nice bud structure should develop. It smells spicy and creamy with a touch of fruit. I'm happy for an automatic under a 150 watt lamp 🤪✌️💚 Thanks for your time and see you next time 💚 For more just like and follow 😊👍

D43/V39 - 13/05/23 - Changed water , added nutes until EC=0.9 D44/V40 - 14/05/23 - Defolation - Added water EC= 1.1 pH 6.5 D45/F01 - 15/05/23 - Start flowering. Monitoring water from maximum to above, for the week out D46/F02 - 16/05/23 - Continuing LST. Flowering stage is now clear D47/F03 - 17/05/23 - EC= 0.9, Added nutes until EC 1.1. pH 6.4 (added some drops of pH-) D48/F04 - 18/05/23 - Added water and nutes EC=1.1, pH 6.5 D49/F05 - 19/05/23 - Nothing to report

Jour 63, les calices du cola prennent du volume, mais pas encore ceux des fleurs du bas. Le cola est très près de la lampe ce qui explique cela, et je le couperait sûrement avant le reste pour que les autres fleurs puissent mûrir.

Days 9 or 10 - I think. I somehow managed to loose track despite having this journal and spreadsheet. Eish. Its top city in this tent. Managed to get things pretty even. I will stop tucking weaving today and let the vertical growth do its thing for the rest of stretch. Dehumidifier is in use now and inline filters. Things start getting exciting now! 👽

My "White Widows" worry me a little. (The middle row). Somehow they stagnate and grow no longer properly. Of course I know that they grow small and compact. But they are overtaken by everyone else. I think I topped them too soon. However... I got my fungus gnats under control pretty well. Only a few are still there. I put my 60cmx60cm tub underneath again. The water flowed through too quickly and I replaced my yellow glue boards with blue ones. I know they're for trips, but they were just there. So I cut them into strips and glued them to the inside edges.
