We’ve entered week eight, one of the final weeks, since the genetics I chose are listed as **8–9 weeks from seed to harvest**. I hope we’re close to the end, because the plants are becoming more and more stressed and I still can’t understand what the problem is. It almost seems like some kind of nutrient uptake lockout. For now, the maturation of the flowers doesn’t seem to be compromised, and the trichomes are starting to develop a nice color, although the buds still look a bit sparse. As with last week, Diesel is holding up well, even though she is also starting to show some leaf issues. I just hope this is due to the flowering stage. The others, however, seem to be getting worse, especially Sunset. Wedding Cake is maturing well, although the spots keep reappearing and some leaves are starting to yellow there too. Sunset, on the other hand, seems to have slowed down in maturation, and the leaves are getting worse and worse. I’m limiting defoliation because I don’t want to add more stress to a plant that is already suffering quite a lot. -------------------------------- **End of W8 Update:** Thanks to the help of this amazing community, Sunset and Wedding have recovered really well! Diesel, on the other hand, is still struggling, but due to my lack of experience I can’t really tell whether it’s just because it’s reaching the end of its cycle, or if the care I gave didn’t bring the results I was hoping for. The buds seem pretty mature now, they’re getting richer in terpenes and reaching a good size, but I’m also wondering whether the treatments I gave this plant may have made the situation worse. I’ll update you again in the next few days! And if you have any advice, guys, drop it in the comments — it’s always more than welcome!

It’s day 43 of flower! All of the plants look great! I’m going to start dialing back the light intensity slowly over the next couple weeks. Harvest time is getting close

Plants with more direct UV showed much more purple across all 3 plants. The data shows that the number of terpenes in dried Cannabis flowers increases with a “No Red” light treatment for the final three days of production. Based upon these findings, we feel confident in recommending a spectrum control program that eliminates red light output from fixtures for the final 72 hours of the Cannabis flowering cycle. Terpenes are aromatic compounds that give cannabis some of its most distinct aromas from citrus and berry, to more earthy tones. Many species of plants produce and emit terpenes in a diurnal, or daily cycle that is regulated by a complex web of signaling. There are also many plants that emit terpenes at night to attract nocturnal pollinators (Marinho et al., 2014346). Regardless of when the terpenes are produced or emitted, these processes are often dependent upon cues derived from natural light/dark cycles via a native circadian clock (Dudareva et al., 2004). Several light-sensitive pigments are involved in these processes of production and emission, and the different photoreceptors are dependent upon different wavelengths of light to be activated or deactivated. Emission of terpenes is a process that is entirely dependent upon phytochromes and red/far-red light cues in most plant species (Flores and Doskey, 2015). For example, repeated light/dark phytochrome signaling is necessary for the emission of terpenes in tobacco plants (Roeder et al., 2007). Based on previous findings, we hypothesized that a lack of red light and phytochrome-mediated light/dark signaling on the part of the plant is responsible for an increase in terpene content in cannabis. The plant continues to synthesize terpenes, but a lack of red light to trigger the Pr-Pfr shift results in a lack of terpene emission by the plant, thus causing the terpenes to accumulate in the maturing flowers.

Plant Mol Biol 65: 107-12 Abstract Sound waves technology has been applied to different plants. It has been found that sound waves were at different frequencies, sound pressure levels (SPLs), exposure periods, and distances from the source of sound influence plant growth. Experiments have been conducted in the open field and under greenhouse growing conditions with different levels of audible sound frequencies and sound pressure levels. Sound waves at 1 kHz and 100 dB for 1 h within a distance of 0.20 m could significantly promote the division and cell wall fluidity of callus cells and also significantly enhance the activity of protective enzymes and endogenous hormones. Sound waves stimulation could increase the plant plasma-membrane H+-ATPase activity, the contents of soluble sugar, soluble protein, and amylase activity of callus. Moreover, sound waves could increase the content of RNA and the level of transcription. Stress-induced genes could switch on under sound stimulation. Sound waves at 0.1–1 kHz and SPL of (70±5) dB for 3 h from plant acoustic frequency technology (PAFT) generator within a distance ranged from 30 to 60 m every other day significantly increased the yield of sweet pepper, cucumber and tomato by 30.05, 37.1 and 13.2%, respectively. Furthermore, the yield of lettuce, spinach, cotton, rice, and wheat were increased by 19.6, 22.7, 11.4, 5.7, and 17.0%, respectively. Sound waves may also strengthen plant immune systems. It has been proved that spider mite, aphids, gray mold, late blight and virus disease of tomatoes in the greenhouses decreased by 6.0, 8.0, 9.0, 11.0, and 8.0%, respectively, and the sheath blight of rice was reduced by 50%. This paper provides an overview of literature for the effects of sound waves on various growth parameters of plant at different growth stages. https://doi.org/10.1016/S2095-3119(13)60492-X

Here we are at the beginning of week 5. All the 6 of the girls are looking well but the cherry cola is the most vigorous out of them all. The little buds are just starting to form and she is still stretching a few centimetres a day, i have a feeling she is going to be a big girl.

This is my first Amnesia Auto. It has been an easy grow so far. Looking forward to the buds fattening up, which almost goes without saying. But, interested to see how loose or tight they will be.

🌿 Vegi Tag 51. Der Startschuss für 12/12 ist gefallen! 🚀🌑 Acht Tage nach dem letzten Check in gibt es kein Halten mehr. Die Dynamik im 90x90 Zelt ist mittlerweile absolut krank wir haben heute Vegi Tag 51 erreicht und das Zelt ist randvoll mit purer Vitalität. Das bedeutet für uns, Heute stellen wir auf 12/12 um! Der Sommer geht, der Herbst zieht ein. Der aktuelle Statusbericht zum Umstellungs Tag: • Massive Blatt-Explosion 2.0. Das Fundament im Living Soil zeigt jetzt seine volle Wucht. Die Energie, mit der sich die Segel entfaltet haben, ist der Wahnsinn. Die Mädels strotzen vor Kraft und sind bereit für den Stretch! • Dantes Inferno & Blue Sushi (@living_roots_pro & @panova25.de ): Diese Schätze haben eine Symmetrie und Stammstärke entwickelt, die einfach nur Spaß macht. Das Bodenleben hat hier ganze Arbeit geleistet, um sie perfekt auf die Blüte vorzubereiten. • Radiergummi Power (@psgx.world & @donindica): Extrem stabil und unermüdlich. Die Genetik zieht ununterbrochen Kraft aus dem Boden und steht wie eine Eins für den anstehenden Phasenwechsel. 💂‍♂️ Zwergen-Wache & Untergrund-Netzwerk Während meine Wächter oben am Lagerfeuer die Stellung halten, haben die Mykorrhiza-Pilze im Untergrund das Netzwerk für die kommende Terpen-Explosion perfekt vollendet. Die Infrastruktur im 300-Liter-System steht – ab heute wird die Energie in die Blütenproduktion umgeleitet! 🏔️ Forest-Floor Finale & Blüte-Start! Man sieht förmlich, wie bereit sie sind, ihr gesamtes Potenzial im massiven Living Soil System zu entfalten. Ab heute heißt es „Licht aus Spot an“ für die generative Phase. Wir sind gespannt, wie sie auf die erste lange Nacht reagieren! Ein riesiges Dankeschön an die @cannacommunity.germany für den Support bei diesem Projekt!

These were supposed to be a more finicky plant by 34 street seeds, as reported by them and other home growers. However, I found it to be fairly normal, was definitely a feeder, and could have probably used some more, I just found it easier to have to mix one feed for both growing had growing. No issues with pests or PM, great yields, big large colas, despite only topping once, and snapping one of those tops of f two of the plants! Anywho, 10/10 would recommend for the $50 pack of seeds *Bonus* I had the three plants tested for THC and CBD at my local grow shop, they tested at 25%, 26% and 27% ❤️ I will also be submitting a sample for the 2023 Grow Cup ran by 34 Street Seeds, along with my other grow, Zkittlez x fpog also by 34 street seeds. Thanks for stopping by 🇨🇦👊❤️

Week 7 and both ladies are fully covered with trichomes and still very vital. If Gelato #2 continues to develop so well, I guess another 2.5 weeks to go.

03/22 - (M) - She is perfectly - Her numbers are spot on and the feeding schedule seems to be dialed in perfectly - I will increase her carbohydrate feeds with the Raw Cane Molasse to increase terpene production. 03/22 - (C) - Hit a little snag with the babies last week and through off their PH/EC/PPM's - Gave them a hard flush yesterday (Only distilled water) to stabilize the numbers and got all of them down to optimal levels. Did some defoliation on the yellowing leaves. I will upload both night and day shots for this week for the babies 03/23 -(C) - Flushed them out hard last night and in less then 24hrs WHABAMMMM!!! they are already bouncing back - Will stick to just clean water feeds for now - They will begin a low-dosage nutrient feed (Micro-dosing) in about a week.😎😎😎😎😎😎😎 03/24 - (C) Flush out complete - They have all bounced back and back to running accordingly - Running AC infinity supp lights and level 2 for under top canopy coverage. 03/27 - (C) - All 8 have bounced back after heavy flush accordingly - Added supp light for side coverage and the ladies seem to be loving it - Might drop the lights a little to avoid over stretching.

This week I added a scrog net and started guiding some of the branches through it. A few branches were already long enough to be bent and positioned under the net, while others still need a bit more growth before reaching it. From now on, the goal is to let the plant grow freely and focus on filling the net evenly before flipping to flower 🌿💪

It seems that everything is going well, I fertilized only once, a week ago, with 1ml of adv but they seem to have no deficiencies and I can't explain why.
