What's up fellow growers another week in the books!!! So after my last update I installed my Scrog net and everything was going along amazing until lastnight! I was doing some final tucking and Lst training trying to get the girls looking pretty for pictures today for u guys and pop goes the weasel!(Branch Snaps 😒🤕) at first I was concerned but after some good tips and reassurance from this great growing community I did a tape repair on the girl but she still looked wilty last night but boom got up this morning and the leaves were standing and the bud sight was rising back to the light. I'm not out the woods for a few days and possibly a week of stress but I'm confident she will recover and drive on. We'll until next week fellow growers Happy Growing😎💚🌱💪💪 Critical purple #1- is my slowest grower but is still vegging so I have faith that she will out produce Critical purple #2. Critical purple #2- I haven't noticed much growth in this plant since going into flower at just a day or two over three weeks old. But I have noticed growth in buds and pistols.. Pineapple auto #1- This girl was really coming along this week! I was so excited to show u guys/gals her progress so did some last minute tucking lastnight before bed and snapped a branch:(. Today she seems to be doing ok so hopeful she will not stress out and back track me a week but u live and u learn. Pineapple auto #2- Guys this is my 🌟 she is doing amazing and loving the scrog as you can see from the photos. With a fabric tape I measured her out to be 19 7/8 inches. This is my best growing plant of both grows I have going now.

La fin se rapproche pour la bannana x purple punch (je vien de lui donné sont premier rincage;) C est une plante vraiment facile à faire pousser elle peut encaisser de gros EC Et elle n à pas trop de feuille (facile à trimer ;) je pense donc que même un débutant peut avoir de très bon résultats avec cette souche il faudra juste la nourrir correctement (pas besoin de lst ou autre technique, juste lui laisser assez de place pour grandir (en hauteur comme pour les racines = big roots = big fruits ;) Pour la WEST COAST OG c est pareil on dirais elle sont en pilot automatique (tellement je n ai rien a faire a part arroser ) J ai au début mis 2 anneaux (technique que j aime bien quand j fais pousser une plante la première fois, au cas où il faudrait écarté les branches etc) mais la on en aurait presque pas besoin pareil que pour ka bannana il faut juste lui laisser assez de place pour les racines et lui laisser assez de place (largeur hauteur ) et des bon nutriment à bonne dose et normalement vous devriez avoir le même résultat que moi ;) Je doit dire que la west coast a une odeur magnifique et les photos pour toutes seul pour se qui est de la cristallisation :) Voilà les amis je m arrêt ici pour cette semaine on se retrouve pour la recolte de la bannana (la west coast à besoin de bien 10 jours encore avant le rincage)

....Understanding Electrical Conductivity Electrical conductivity measures a material’s ability to transmit electric current, which in the context of gardening, relates to the soil or nutrient solution’s ion content. In simpler terms, EC indicates how salty the environment is around the roots of a plant. This “saltiness” is crucial because it affects the plant’s osmotic pressure, which in turn influences nutrient uptake and overall plant health. The Science Behind EC At its core, EC measures the presence of soluble ions like potassium, calcium, magnesium, and nitrates – all vital nutrients for plant growth. These ions carry electrical charges, and their movement creates an electrical current, detectable as conductivity. High EC levels typically mean a high concentration of dissolved ions, whereas low EC levels indicate fewer nutrients are available. The Impact of Electrical Conductivity on Plant Growth The relationship between EC and plant growth is a delicate balance. Just the right EC level can enhance nutrient uptake, bolster plant health, and increase yields. However, when EC levels stray too far from the optimal range, they can lead to nutrient imbalances, osmotic stress, and even plant death. Nutrient Uptake and EC Levels Plants absorb nutrients from the soil or water through their roots, a process influenced by the surrounding EC levels. Ideal EC levels help create an optimal environment for this exchange, ensuring plants receive the nutrients they need without exerting excessive energy. High EC Levels: A Double-Edged Sword While a certain level of dissolved ions is beneficial, excessively high EC levels can harm plants. High salinity can draw water out of plant cells, leading to dehydration and nutrient lockout – a condition where plants cannot absorb essential nutrients despite their presence. Low EC Levels: Undernourished Gardens Conversely, low EC levels can starve plants of necessary nutrients, stunt growth, and lead to underdeveloped or diseased plants. Maintaining an optimal EC range is crucial for healthy plant development. Measuring and Adjusting Electrical Conductivity Understanding the importance of EC is one thing, but applying this knowledge in the garden or greenhouse requires practical steps. Regular monitoring and adjustment can ensure that plants remain in a conducive growth environment. Tools for Measuring EC Gardeners can use various tools to measure EC, from simple handheld meters to more sophisticated systems integrated into hydroponic setups. Regular monitoring allows for timely adjustments to soil or nutrient solutions, ensuring optimal EC levels. Adjusting EC for Optimal Growth Adjusting EC involves changing the concentration of nutrients in the soil or solution. In hydroponics, this might mean diluting or concentrating the nutrient solution. In soil, amendments may be added or flushed with water to correct EC levels. Practical Applications: EC in Various Growing Environments The application of EC knowledge varies across different growing environments, from traditional soil-based gardens to modern hydroponic systems. Soil Gardening In soil, EC measurements can help diagnose nutrient imbalances and guide fertilization practices. Amending soil with organic matter or flushing with water can adjust EC levels to better support plant growth. Hydroponics and Aquaponics In hydroponic and aquaponic systems, where plants are grown in water-based solutions, maintaining optimal EC levels is crucial for nutrient availability. These systems allow for precise control of EC, directly influencing plant health and yield. Greenhouse Cultivation In greenhouses, EC monitoring can help manage the nutritional status of various plants, ensuring that each receives the right nutrient mix for optimal growth. Automated systems can provide real-time EC adjustments based on plant needs. Navigating Challenges: Overcoming EC-Related Issues While maintaining optimal EC levels can significantly enhance plant growth, gardeners may encounter challenges such as fluctuating conditions, equipment malfunctions, or environmental stresses. Regular monitoring, combined with a solid understanding of each plant’s specific needs, can mitigate these issues. Conclusion: The Conductive Path to Lush Gardens Electrical conductivity, though an invisible factor, is a cornerstone of successful gardening and farming. By understanding and managing EC levels, gardeners and farmers can profoundly influence the health and productivity of their plants. As we continue to explore the nuances of plant growth, the role of EC stands out as a testament to the marriage of science and nature in cultivating life. Whether in soil, water, or air, mastering the art of electrical conductivity can unlock the full potential of our green companions, leading to bountiful harvests and vibrant gardens.

Flower Day 61 — Tropical Ice Cream 🍦🌴 27.08. — Flower Day 61, and this run is getting seriously exciting. Looking back at the first weeks of flower, it’s honestly crazy to see how much these plants have transformed. What started with fresh white pistils and small flower sites has turned into a tent full of chunky, beautifully stacked colas, and they’re still putting on weight. The structure, the density and especially the amount of resin on these flowers are really starting to show what Tropical Ice Cream is capable of. And then there’s the smell… holy shit. The name really wasn’t chosen randomly. The tropical sweetness has been getting stronger week after week, but now that creamy, almost dessert-like character has really kicked in. Every time I open the tent, I get hit with this unmistakable combination of tropical fruit and sweet, creamy ice cream. It genuinely smells like the name suggests — Tropical Ice Cream. 🍦🌴 What has impressed me just as much throughout this run is the resilience of these plants. I’ve had some minor Powdery Mildew pressure in the environment, but these girls have been remarkably unfazed by it. While I still keep a close eye on the overall room, the Tropical Ice Cream plants have simply continued growing, stacking and frosting up without missing a beat. That kind of resilience is something I really value in a cultivar. Now, at Day 61, we’re entering that final stretch where every visit to the tent feels a little more rewarding. The flowers are getting heavier, the colours are changing, the resin is absolutely everywhere and the whole plant is slowly transitioning from “still growing” to “almost ready to become something ridiculous.” I’m not rushing anything. At this stage, it’s all about letting the plants finish on their own terms and watching those final weeks unfold. And honestly, this is the part of the grow where you start realizing just how good the journey has been. Tropical Ice Cream — Flower Day 61. The finish line is getting closer, and this one is looking like it’s going to be one hell of a finale. 🍦🌴🔥

Läuft würde ich sagen... Unterste Etage jetzt an BT45 quasi komplett weg. Teilweise auch weggetrocknet da ich etwas zu sparsam gieße denke ich. Immer kurz nach dem Stresspunkt (untersten blätter verlieren Spannung) und nicht davor. Der Mulch ist etwas zu feucht, die neuen wurzeln die durch den Topdress kommen haben zu wenig luft...werde die nächsten Wassergaben (nur wasser) etwas 3-4cm unter die oberfläche spritzen (Kanüle 100ml Spritze). Aber Alles über dem Netzt knackig Grün. Gelbe Spitzen waren vom Lichtstress letzte woche sind aber etwas "schlimmer" geworden trotz gedimmter Lampe. Könnte also auch ein leichter überschuss sein (Tee letzte Woche), dagegen spricht, dass in den Blättern im Schatten keine Spitzen gelb sind. Gehe es also mit Dünger langsam an. Habe beim letzten gießen etwas! Melasse, ganz wenig Asche und noch weniger Guano mit Teichwassser gegeben. Nächste Runde gibts noch einen Bananentee und ggf etwas Melasse. Das kommt alles ne woche später wirklich an. und dann sollte sie ab anfang Woche 9 hungern. Rechne normaler Weise mit ner Woche mehr als der Breeder sagt. Also 10 Wochen mit 1-2 Wochen Strakem Hunger am Ende. (Andere Vorschläge mit Begründung! willkommen) RLF bei 42% was wichtig ist...habe etwas Budrot Angst...werde keine Blätter mehr wegnehmen, da mache ich zu viel Schäden und erstelle erst recht Eintrittststellen für den Grauschimmel.

Sensi Seeds Jack Herer 4 weeks of flowering completed 10th March 2020 💪💪 She's Got the spirit this one and is really growing to the expectations of my wildest dreams The Buds are very sticky and have a distinct aroma unlike anything else in my canna Garden. She still has about 6 weeks left before I can harvest her so anything could happen between now and then , but if I can get her right thru to maturity I think I'll have some of The Finest medicine available 👌 Been feeding about 7 Litres a day of either plain water or water with some added goodies . Tested Ph and soil temp was 6.4 and 22c Thankyou for reading this weeks update for my Mission Jack Herer diary . 👍👍

We successfully completed week 8 and things are starting to get interesting. The buds have grown significantly in size over the last days and the smell has gotten much stronger. I think I also need a new air filter… The leaves did some coloring in the past week which makes this beauty look even more handsome. I optimized the air intake of my tent this week by replacing my one 100mm tube with two 130mm 3d printed light traps so breathing is much easier now and the vent can run a bit less fast.

It's amazing how quickly the weather can change. Just a few weeks ago we were bundled up in our warmest coats, and now it's finally starting to feel like springtime. With temps in the 40s and 50s, it's the perfect time to get outside and enjoy the sunshine. My pound cake plant is finally getting somewhere. It's totally weird, because the stems turned this super cool purple color. Soon it's going to be covered in pound cake buds that'll be ready to eat. I'm thinking fancy frosting might be the way to go, but I'm also considering something fruity on top.
