Hello growers, This week marks an important step in the development of the Pineapple Upside Down from Humboldt. The plant has now been moved into the flowering tent. The main reason for this change is simply to give the plant more space and to benefit from better environmental control. The larger tent allows improved airflow and more stable climate management, which should help the plant maintain a healthier rhythm moving forward. Even though the light fixture changed, the spectrum remains the same. The plant is still running under a 3500K spectrum, so there should be no real shock from a lighting perspective. Light intensity has been kept around 600 PPFD, which means the plant continues growing under conditions that are very similar to what it was used to previously. Some environmental adjustments were also made this week. The VPD has been increased slightly to around 0.8–0.9 in order to encourage stronger transpiration and improve nutrient uptake. Last week the plant showed a small slowdown in growth and overall vigor. The leaves were slightly droopy and the plant looked a bit less energetic than usual. After reviewing the parameters, the most likely explanation was a pH drift upward toward 6.2–6.3. While this range is not catastrophic, it can reduce the plant’s ability to absorb certain nutrients, especially nitrogen, which could explain the temporary slowdown that was observed. The pH has now been corrected and brought back down to around 5.8, allowing it to naturally fluctuate between 5.5 and 5.9. Since this adjustment is very recent, the plant will need a few days to fully respond to the correction. Earlier in the week, the EC had been increased to 2.0 to test the possibility of a nutrient deficiency. Toward the end of the nutrient solution cycle, the mixture was slightly diluted with osmosis water in order to rebalance the EC and avoid pushing the plant too hard. This week was also used to work heavily on the plant’s structure. A topping combined with a strong defoliation was performed. The canopy was opened up significantly, removing a large amount of leaf mass to improve airflow, light penetration, and overall structure. It was not a light cleanup — the plant was trimmed quite aggressively in order to reset the canopy properly. The plant originally had four main apexes, and each of those was topped again. This now creates approximately sixteen main growth points. With sixteen apexes, the plant structure is now approaching the intended final architecture. From this point forward, the main objective is simply to allow the plant to recover from this fairly heavy pruning session, regain strength, and stabilize before any further training. Over the coming days and weeks, the focus will be on observing how the plant responds to the pH correction, the environmental adjustments, and the recent structural work. For now, everything appears to be back under control. We’ll see how she responds over the next week. Alright growers, take care and see you next week.

Didn’t expect the stretch to be so huge given the genetics. Like 10 cm in 3 days! Let’s see. Put in a dehumidifier, trying to reach optimal humidity of 60% for this stage. 02/01 The stretch is really strong. 75 cm by 02/01 04/01 I have been doing just minimal pruning/defoliation during the veg stage. I guess it was the reason why the stretch is so strong as the main colas try to reach the light. And there is a lot of weak side-shoots which make the plants really messy. Did some minor pruning today, because I don’t want to stress the plants much during early flowering. I’m going to remove all the side-shoots in two weeks when the stretch is over. Next time I should do more pruning early, before the flip.

I can't see the very back pheno of the blue Gelato 41,but I'm not impressed so far. There is a lot of bulking to do, compared to other strains in the tent. These are set to finish Dec 26th. Hopefully they start stacking asap

this week was great, the V1 arrived through a lot of logistical nightmares. its the final test before mass production- i will post another dairy for it but please have a look at the pics above. ive created a stylish subtle, modern way to grow 4 plants. this will be great for all levels and will save big on energy and nutrition. you just have to prune, it can even draw water into itself. anbd its 4 plants!!! stick here and youll see it in action. ive decided to change the order in tents. now we have super strong Purple berry Kush with the returned and super strong sweet seeds Sweet cherry pie. so one tent is the strong, and the other tent is now perma auto flower, which serves for additional veg for girls who fall behind their grow peers. hope that makes sense. i think my net is pretty useless other than a visual to plan nodes. i guess the real support will come from placing more plastic rods around the colas and fastening them. hope Christmas was kind to everyone. this oncoming week will be the last week of veg i think for tent two and we flip to flower. thanks for looking.

So far, I can't comment on the effects and taste of the girl, because I was just weighing a wet product. The smell is strongly aromatic, the girl smelled the whole apartment. I no longer gave the girl nutrients, only clean water, and she remained in the dark for the last two days. I will dry the buds for about 10 days before I dry in the jars and update here. 😉 Update: The taste is sweet, delicate, does not scratch at all, the effect comes after a while. She's great. 😍

**Encontrarás la traducción a español al final de la descripción** From/Desde: 12/04/19 || To/Hasta: 18/04/19 From day/Desde día: 50 || To day/Hasta día: 56 You can find the Money Maker Diary here: ** Podéis encontrar el diario de las Money Maker aquí:** https://growdiaries.com/diaries/25667-gorillamakingmoney-gorilla-vs-money-m -----IMAGES & VIDEOS----- I'm sorry for not having a tlapse video this week, i slaved the cam onto my 60x60 tent to record the first growing week of another plants, next week i will return with more tlapse videos. -----WEEK SUMMARY----- To have a visual size of the plants take into consideration that the SCROG net it's fixed 24 cm abobe the top part of the soil. There's something i want to correct and remark this week. About the question i asked some weeks ago on growers help, about the plant with decoloring problems (Photos 7 & 13), where i've choose the defoliation answer as the correct one. Watching the plant today, I would say that it can be an excess of co2 in the roots caused by a co2 tablet that I used during the first days of growth. You can notice how the part of the plant in the back does not present de decoloration it have in the front. Also remarking what i've told last week, i must say the SCROG is not a true SCROG, as some colas begin below others, and also colas are of different heights among all plants. Anyway i'm very happy on how everything is going. And insisting again, I have very very few experience growing cannabis, this is my 3rd grow, 2nd indoor, and first time with photo-period at indoors, and of course is the first time too i'm trying to apply growing technics on a serious way. I really don't know if i'm doing things right or wrong. -----WATERING CALENDAR----- 13/04/19 - 1.250 ml with all week nutrients -(Sensizym, bloom stimulator, bloom nutrition & amino complex) @ PH6.4 & 1.3 E.C. 17/04/19 - 1.250 ml with Silica Power, Pro Active, Bloom Stimulator, Bloom Nutrition, Sensizym & 5 drops of Amino Complex @ PH6.5 & 1.3 E.C. *****ESPAÑOL***** -----IMÁGENES Y VÍDEOS----- Siento no tener vídeos timelapse esta semana, he esclavizado la cámara en el armario de 60x60 para grabar la primera semana de crecimiento con otras plantas que tengo en el. -----SUMARIO SEMANAL----- Hay una cosa que quiero corregir y remarcar esta semana. En sobre la pregunta que realicé hace unas semanas sobre la planta que tenía una decoloración (Fotos 7 y 13), en la que escogí la respuesta de la variegación. Viendo la planta a día de hoy, yo diría que es un exceso de CO2 en las raíces causado por una pastilla de CO2 que usé durante los primeros días de crecimiento. Al fijarse bien se ve como la parte trasera de la planta no presenta las decoloraciones y sin embargo la frontal si. Para tener una idea más o menos certera del tamaño de las partes de las plantas, tened en cuenta que la red está fija a 24 cm de la parte superior de la tierra de los tiestos. También remarcando lo que dije durante la última semana, he de decir que el SCROG no es un SCROG real, ya que las colas no empiezan desde la misma altura ni son de la misma altura, ni las plantas son de la misma altura. Pero yo estoy muy contento con como va la cosa, vuelvo a insistir que es mi primera vez con foto-dependientes indoor, mi segundo armario indoor y el tercer cultivo de mi vida, y por supuesto la primera vez que aplico o intento aplicar las técnicas de cultivo. Lo estoy intentando realizar bien y de manera eficaz, pero realmente no se si lo estoy haciendo bien o mal, yo simplemente me lio y veo como responden las plantas. -----CALENDARIO DE RIEGO----- 13/04/19 - 1.250 ml con todos los nutrientes semanales -(Sensizym, bloom stimulator, bloom nutrition & amino complex) @ PH6.4 & 1.3 E.C. 17/04/19 - 1.250 ml con Silica Power, Pro Active, Bloom Stimulator, Bloom Nutrition, Sensizym & 5 gotas de Amino Complex @ PH6.5 & 1.3 E.C.

Smell has really started to increase this week! The buds are starting to form and spiral up! Its been glorious! Humidity has still been fairly high but it hasn't gone over 60 so its slowly getting better even after watering! Up to 2g per gal of booster on feed days, no signs or burn. Getting pretty excited I think 2-3 more weeks!

good flowering, everything is stable, a lot of inflorescences appeared this week, next week it is planned to remove the lower leaves. We had to tilt two branches from the middle, as they stretched out very much and there was a risk of burn, we are waiting for 7 weeks!

A big hello to all the cannabis growing gardeners...and all the other visitors that came across my grow journal. I apologise for the late updates, what you see on the photograph is what i found growing after my 5 day Christmas absence. i actually took the photographs on the day of my 41 birthday. During this time the four plants drank a lot of water that nobody was refilling, normally it was ok, this time though when i came beck the ph was at 5.6 after i replenished the missing water it jumpted to only 5.8. It happened first time to me so i thought "give it a couple of days girls will drink and the replenished fresh water with PH of 7.4 will up my reservoir", Unfortunately it was a bad choice, plants started to drink less and less every passing day, so at this week end started adding PH+ (first time since a long time, my PH+ bottle was bought in 2015 ;) During the week only added PH+ and PK 13-14. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The SE 7000 is hanged at 40 cm. over the canopy and runs at 550W. This whole grow's main sponsor is Spider Farmer. You can easily obtain all the great grow equipment we use at: spider-farmer.com A big thank you to Jessie and the whole Spider Farmer crew for supporting me with the newest technological advancements in horticulture.

Es una variedad super estable en su cultivo , las primeras semanas le fascina la luz blanca , en mi caso usé un panel led #qkwin el cual tiene un mix ideal para crecimiento y floración : chip samsung 3000k 5000k uv 660nm iR . Agradezco a mi amigo mkled que gracias a su ayuda logramos probar ese panel led ! Aguante master ! ... En los primeros días de su crecimiento estuvimos con 20 horas de luz y 4 de oscuridad , en mi zona de cultivo , es un lugar húmedo y frío , estas horas de luz me ayudan bastante al crecimiento...ya casi en su 3 o 5ta semana de crecimiento , bajamos a 18/6 ... Se realizó corte apical en la 3era semana de crecimiento y reaccionó al 100%... A medida que crece le aplico defoliacion y poda lolypop para una aireación ideal en toda la planta y además evitamos esfuerzo adicional de la planta en querer buscar luz con los brotes de más abajo ... Ideal para realizar podas y lst ! Super fácil y cómoda, se recupera fácilmente después de defoliar . Por su estructura final tambien es ideal para técnicas de cultivo como SOG y SCROG por su facilidad al adaptarse ... En floración , le gusta el ambiente bien seco y aireado , 22°C / 40% humedad / extracción 45mins on / 15mins off / intraccion pasiva .. A los primeros dias de floración ya hace notar su riquísimo aroma a limon maduro y skunk , se confunde con un olor a orina de gato en algunas ocasiones ...un verdadero zorrillo... Le hice defoliacion 1 día antes de pasar a floración , reaccionó super bien , esto me ayudo a que todos los brotes pequeños recibieran mayor luz y se definieran ... En esta ocasión su alimentación sube "por las nubes" logrados medir hasta una alimentación de 2.2 EC una verdadera bestia ! Robusta ! Ya en su 4ta a 5ta semana de floración comenzamos con riegos de sólo agua , sin fertilizantes .... Su corte fue en su 8va semana de floración y era un corte sin fin ! El resultado ideal ... Esta nena nos rindió unos 90g como mínimo ! Bastante conforme..

Hallo meine Garten Freunde. Ich hoffe euch geht’s allen gut, leider kommen die Abschluss Berichte jetzt nach und nach, weil einige Strains ein bisschen länger brauchen als andere. Ich bin zufrieden mit diesem Grow wie er verlaufen ist, ich glaube der Ertrag hätte höher ausfallen können, aber das liegt nicht an der Sorte oder an dem Equipment. Es liegt meistens immer an dem Mensch was der draus macht, und da ich noch mein Optimum suche kann einiges gut oder schlecht verlaufen. Aber wie ich erwähnt habe bin ich zufrieden. Die Blüten haben sich zum Schluss richtig schön entwickelt und sind schön kompakt geworden, jetzt wo die Buds getrocknet sind, sind die auch Steinhart, wenn man die Buds auf eine Oberfläche fallen lässt hört man ein richtiges klock Geräusch. Das Blatt zu Blüten Verhältnis ist sehr gut. Diesen Strain würde ich wieder anbauen, dann aber nur mit einer Trainings Methode. Ich denke das war auch das Problem das ich die Pflanzen zu klein gehalten habe. Trotzdem haben die Ladys mir schöne dicke Buds geschenkt, es gab fast keine Popcorn Buds. Wenn ich eine Trainings Methode empfehlen würde dann Fimming oder Topping das haben alle sehr gut weggesteckt. Mit unter Düngung kommt sie gut zurecht aber nach einer Zeit zeigt sie dir was sie möchte. Das entlauben war auch kein Problem. Das einzige was sie nicht so gerne mag ist nasse Füße, aber auch davon erholen sich die Pflanzen relativ schnell wieder. Es ist eine sehr stabile Sorte, der man einiges abverlangen kann bis sie zickt. Da hat Royal Queen Seeds sich selber übertroffen und eine sehr robuste Sorte kreiert. Ein Riesen Respekt und ein Riesen Dankeschön für diese tolle Sorte und das ihr sie mit dem Rest der Welt teilt. Ein Riesen Dankeschön geht an James und RQS vielen Dank für die gute Zusammenarbeit und die Unterstützung.👍🏻✌️🏼 James sie machen eine tolle Arbeit Vielen Dank für alles machen sie weiter so und Royal Queen Seeds. Es werden in der nächsten Zeit noch ein paar schöne Tagebücher hier bei GD geben, ihr dürft alle gespannt sein. Ein großes Dankeschön geht auch an die Community von Growdiaries vielen Dank für eure Hilfe und Unterstützung, ihr seid die besten und das sage ich mit voller Überzeugung bleibt alle so wie ihr seit. Habt Spaß an dem was uns geschenkt wurde, nämlich eine großartige Pflanze die vielen Menschen auf dieser Welt helfen kann. Peace das war’s fürs erste bei diesem Tagebuch von mir bis dann. Wenn ich euer Interesse geweckt hab dann findet ihr hier diese tolle Sorte und noch viele andere mega Genetiken von Royal Queen Seeds. Dazu kommt noch ein fetter Rabatt von20% was will man mehr. Viel Spaß damit: GROWERS20 https://www.royalqueenseeds.de/ Nix verpassen und gleich hin.

The plant is now becoming more and more mature, I have started to discontinue the fertilizer and only water with CalMag fertilizer, and very little at that. The color of the leaves now clearly changes to purple. The smell is sweet but still slightly citrusy. The plant will now be harvested in about 10 days. Ph value, Dli and ppfd still the same Flowering day: 56

day 11 from germination 5 litres to the pots with different ph between 6.2-6.5 with 0.5 MLG bio grow for litr. day 12 from germination its my bad day I noticed that my plants are very stretched and Fragile; compared to their peers that I saw on the site, are very behind. I think the reason is that I got a 110 watt Amazon lamp, put it 100 cm away and gave them a lot of fertilizer and water. To solve this problem, I ordered a spider sf 1000 and i gathered the soil of pots from the side and poured it around the stem (And I brought the air to 20 c°, which I do not know is correct or not). Current situation: Plants are giving new leaves and I see a tendency to grow in them. My question is, are my plants very backward for 12 day after germination? Do you think that if plants are not going to grow enough and their start flowering quickly when their are still small plants, it is not better to throw these away and plant new seeds? Does it cause the amount of yield to decrease?Or I still have a chance to fix it? There is a way to increase their growth period? After I buried the stems and changed their height from 14cm to 8cm, can the stems have new roots? And that now a few cm empty flowerpots do the roots have enough space to grow according to the photos? Thank you very much for your help. day14: Today is the 14th day and the last day of the second week. Today I installed the fan and ventilation and a new lamp arrived Spider Farmer sf1000. Very high humidity, someone can help me. And that there is a way to grow four plants with this lamp? Do not miss today's video.

Привет садоводы началась 2 неделя растение потихоньку растет (не очень быстро) но через 2-3 недели будет видно какой она имеет потенциал будем наблюдать дальше и ухаживать сегодня произвел пересадку
