Diese Woche war wahrscheinlich die bisher stressigste. Direkt zu Beginn der Woche ist mir an Tag 57 beim Versuch, die unteren Hauptarme per LST noch einmal neu zu justieren, ein Malheur passiert: Ich habe aus Versehen den Stamm der Pflanze gespalten. Ich habe die betreffende Stelle im Anschluss direkt mit etwas elastischem Isolierband umwickelt und den Riss anschließend mit Kabelbindern fest fixiert, um den Spalt zusammenzuhalten. Das LST wurde daraufhin zunächst erst mal komplett entfernt. Zum Glück zeigte sich relativ schnell, dass die Pflanze diesen Schaden erstaunlich gut verkraftet. An Tag 59 habe ich dann die unteren 4 Hauptarme mit Bodenankern von unten gestützt und das LST vorsichtig wieder aufgebaut, damit die Verteilung der Triebe wieder etwas besser und damit auch das Zentrum der Pflanze wieder etwas offener ist. Ansonsten habe ich das LST diese Woche nicht weiter verändert, um den eingerissenen Stamm möglichst nicht noch weiter zu belasten. Die Fixierung sieht weiterhin stabil aus. Bisher gibt es keine Anzeichen dafür, dass einzelne Triebe schlechter versorgt werden. Die Pflanze scheint den Schaden also überraschend gut wegzustecken. Parallel zum Stammproblem ging der Stretch weiter. Die Pflanze legte in dieser Woche deutlich an Höhe zu und der Abstand zur Lampe wurde dabei zunehmend kritisch gering. An Tag 62 (BT16) blieben nur noch ~14cm Abstand zwischen den höchsten Trieben und der Lampe, weshalb ich mich dazu entschied, einen kleinen Umbau an der Box vorzunehmen und die Abluftanlage aus der Box herauszunehmen und auf das Dach zu montieren. Dafür habe ich eigene Halterungen für den Lüfter und den AKF konstruiert und in PETG gedruckt. Die Halter wurden mit Moosgummi etwas von der Growbox entkoppelt, um Vibrationen und Körperschall möglichst zu reduzieren. Dadurch habe ich noch mal ein paar Zentimeter gewonnen und konnte die Lampe noch etwas höher hängen, um so wieder auf einen Abstand von ~21,5cm zu kommen. Am Ende der Woche (BT17) liegen die 5 höheren Haupttriebe bei ~55cm und die 3 kürzeren Haupttriebe bei ~47,5cm. Damit bleiben aktuell noch rund 19 cm Abstand zur Lampe. Ich hoffe daher, dass der Stretch in den nächsten Tagen so langsam endet, denn jetzt bleibt kein Spielraum mehr, um die Lampe noch höher zu hängen. Trotz des zeitweise sehr geringen Lampenabstands konnte ich bisher zum Glück keine deutlichen Anzeichen für Licht- oder Hitzestress erkennen, obwohl die Lampe weiterhin dauerhaft mit 100% Leistung lief. Ansonsten gab es diese Woche wieder 2 Bewässerungen: 1. Gießvorgang: Tag 58, insgesamt ~4,5 Liter (0,5ml/l Fish-Mix, 2ml/l Bio-Grow, 2ml/l Bio-Bloom, 1ml/l Top-Max, 2ml/l Bio-Heaven, 1ml/l Alg-A-Mic, 0,81ml/l CalMag, ca. 0,24g/l Bittersalz, pH-Wert ~6,5, EC-Wert ~1,8mS/cm, Topfgewicht vorher ca. 4,4kg, nachher ca. 7,6kg) 2. Gießvorgang: Tag 61, insgesamt ~5 Liter (2ml/l Bio-Grow, 2ml/l Bio-Bloom, 1ml/l Top-Max, 3ml/l Bio-Heaven, 1ml/l Alg-A-Mic, 0,81ml/l CalMag, ca. 0,24g/l Bittersalz, pH-Wert ~6,4, EC-Wert ~1,9mS/cm, Topfgewicht vorher ca. 4,2kg, nachher ca. 7,7kg) Die Blütenbildung wurde im Laufe der Woche deutlich sichtbarer, und alle Haupttriebe zeigen inzwischen gut erkennbare Blütenansätze. Für die nächste Woche steht dann, nach hoffentlich abflachendem Stretch, das Lollipopping auf dem Plan, um etwas mehr Luft und Licht in die Pflanze und vor allem das volle Zentrum zu bringen und vielleicht dem ein oder anderen Nebentrieb noch eine Chance zu geben. Außerdem werde ich im Laufe der Woche vermutlich die Kabelbinder und das Isolierband am Stamm entfernen, um die Stelle einmal besser inspizieren zu können. Wenn alles gut aussieht, wird die Stelle danach zur Sicherheit mit Veredelungsband und neuen Kabelbindern wieder fixiert.

day 2 - week 7 of flower has started and tbh it feels like the flowers are not growing too much at the moment. lets just hope paitience pays out and just continue just as before. she is still being H2O stressed, but not only getting water every other day. if i see her leafs hanging in the day time i also give her a good amount of water so shes not being tortured :) day 5 - got a new LED light today, so no more shitty NDL pics. also i found brown leaf tips on some sugar leafs and i will give her more water now. at least a little. i think it is caused by too much H2O stress. i will keep you updated on that day 7 - day 2 i said it feels like the buds aint grow fast enought, but if i compare todays pictures with last weeks i think she is doing just great! still will have to give her at least 1 or 2 more weeks until i can think about harvesting but she looks good in my opinion! because of H2O stress, she got a little more water now and also the tips are just fine and seem to dont brown out any further.

Day 106. Final stretch ! All jobs done ! I changed my mind about defoliation, was asked already by second person and will try to do my own RSO for them. Normally i would call it a mistake, needed to lolitop them 20 cm up more, my lights are too weak for 10 such big plants, but in oil production case - its a win ! You should use all plant for production, not only buds, so ill give it a go. Only water in reduced amounts is all my work left. Hope to push them two more weeks. So FLUSH FLUSH FLUSH !!! as much as you can hope in soil ... ;))) Happy Growing !

This week we should really see these colas blow up and start stacking really strong. The mixer of 7 hours of sun and 17 hours under my LEDs has really helped my girls grow strong. Nothing compares to good old Mother Nature.

420Fastbuds FBT2302/Week11 What up everyone. Hopefully all are having an amazing weekend. Weekly update in these two little ladies. The flowers on these have definitely swollen up more this week and starting to show some amber when looking at the trichs. They both are super frosty and smell absolutely delicious. Did take off most of the bigger fan leafs this week allowing more light to the lower flower sites before getting the chop in a couple days. All in all Happy Growing

The addition of an enzyme has produced amazing results that were shocking and worrying at first. Massive rise in EC and PH every 24 hours from 5.3 - 6.8. Research yet no sign of any harm to the plants, in fact they seem very happy! The enzymes has created an environment friendly to the beneficial microbes and fungi that has lead to a feeding frenzy (Which wouldn't have happened ad I used Hygrozyme from the start.). EC rises a point or two as the microbes and plants expel waste and create a plethora of negative charged hydrogen ions. Thus, the PH rises. Never above 6.8, strangely. Because the microbes are eating and shitting so well, they have added a lot of chilated nutrients that are easier for the plants to uptake at a wider range of PH (Yes, some as high as 6.8). The fact that there are so many bunches of calyxes sprouting and exploding, filling in the flower space is proof enough for me.

hello. this is the first plant I have used big bud and bud candy but I don't test the water and the plant was damaged with high PH so I had to buy a PH meter and TDS meter so wish me luck with other plants

This is the first week with only 12 hours of light and the plants grow pretty well 😎 I removed some leaves here and there to give some light to the new branches but no major defoliation. The broken branch of the Cashew Kush from last week (see D42 - Cashew Kush) has survived and went back towards the light, it's a strong plant! 💪 The light is now set to 100% and is really hotter than at 75%. I cannot leave my hand on the top of it for too long or it burns a bit. Despite of that, I have no temperature issues in the room. Plants heights at the end of the week : ------------------------------------------- Blackberry Cake : 35cm Jack Herer : 39cm Cashew Kush : 39cm

Back to the 1000 wt as temps here are modest for July atm. Still 1 plant not flowering like the other 2. I will be patient as it’s overall structure looks amazing. Slowly easing into the process not as much anxiety about every little thing. Changed my light out for my lower power 600 wt led instead of the 1000wt TMLAPY. Maybe not the right move i really don't know what to do b/c i have tip burn and my tent gets a bit hot in the low 80s when its in the 90s here in Illinois. I have an makeshift cooler w fan and some fans and my exhaust fan system which im pretty sure is under powered and overall and bad beginner purchase. I will upgrade as soon as i can financially afford to. Also had flooding issues in basement which is always an adventure, i eventually need a better way to get my grow tent up off the ground b/c water does get in there sometimes. Doing everything in my power to avoid mold and have fans and filters and cleaning, but again this may have been a beginner mistake and i may have to find a new home for the tent for the next time. Also I definitely had been under watering the girls and came close to one of them dying and have to remove some yellow leaves at bottom, they all look stable now. 1 out of 3 plants has a darker color and looks fuller and healthier w less tip burn but it is shorter only has a couple of hairs where the other 2 are going full on into flowering with so many hairs and growing much taller. Possibly stunted the growth... Anyway the word of the day for this week is TIP BURN. I will submit a question to follow. i recently uploaded a video that should show all 3 plants w the tip burn.

Back home. All 8 branches looking well. Thay have grown fast during this 7 days. The roots look healthy and white. This week want to try not to change full res. Just going to add some nutrients so that the ppm goes to 600. Let's see how it will work. Also did some lst on every branch. Trying to make them as horizontal as possible for now. Hope to start scrog next week.

The three Bruce Banner Autos are each showing their own character this week 😅. #1 is still the champ – so vigorous that I started some LST to open her up. She reacted perfectly and is already taking up a good part of the tent.💪🔥 #2 finally seems to have found her rhythm and is starting to grow more steadily. #3 is still very small with barely any progress compared to her sisters.🐌 They are all growing in their 90×90 tent equipped with the full AC Infinity setup (AI controller, fans, filters) and running under a Spider Farmer SE5000. Conditions are very stable thanks to the climate control: temps around 26–27 °C and humidity steady.🌡️💧 This week they only got RO water + CalMag (Advanced Nutrients). Their first Orgatrex feeding was already given last week.🌿 Overall: Bruce Banner #1 is leading the way, #2 is on the right track now, and #3 still lags behind. Curious to see how they will behave as they move closer to the first signs of flower.👀✨
