Beginning of week 3 of flowering and plants are slowing there stretch down. I decided to let them come up into the second screen about a foot above the first screen. Second screen holes are twice as big as the first layer screen and is primarily to support the colas later in flowering. I stripped all the growth below the first screen so the plants won’t waste there energy on these lower beaches with no light under the canopy. I will be removing a few of the larger guard leaves later in the week on the top of the canopy to let light in to the lower shouts ready to come up, but not until after the plants recovers for a day or 2 from the bottom stripping. Smell is starting to ramp up, can really notice it strong when you open the tent now.

Removed 20l from the reservoir and filled it up with fresh nutrients. Added Yara Kristalon Orange, Yara Calcinit and a little bit of Haifa GrowClean to the reservoir. Adjusted PH/ORP, PH- adds P and ORP adjustment adds K. Topped it up with tap water every second day, the dehumidifier pulls ~12l/day, most of it should be from the plants I've got in my tent. I am struggling to keep ORP at ~100, might be a sign of root trouble. Nothing else to report. Values are average of the day.

Week 2 of Flower: Absolute Power Mode & Defoliation Day 🚀🌿💎 Welcome back to the Lab! 🔬 We are officially wrapping up Week 2 of flower, and things are getting absolutely insane inside the testing facility! 💥 "The Gassy One" is running on pure high-octane fuel right now, pushing all genetic limits with a massive, aggressive growth spurt! 📈🏃‍♂️💨 Growth & The Great Stretch 📊📏 The plant vitality is completely unmatched! 💪 These ladies are throwing down serious node growth on a daily basis. 🌿 Since we are dealing with a heavily performing, vigorous hybrid, the internal hormone shift is causing an absolute explosion in height and canopy expansion! 🚀 The stems are getting beautifully thick, and they are begging for the light. 🔋 At the exact end of this week, we hit the perfect sweet spot to finally strip them down and unleash their full potential! ✂️⚡ The Defoliation Ritual & Stress Management ✂️🍃🕵️‍♂️ With the tent packing out completely from wall to wall, it was time for a heavy, calculated cleanup! 🛡️ We went in and executed a radical defoliation and lollipoppen to open up the entire structure. 🌳 The Goal: Getting that pristine, intense light from the Mars Hydro all the way down to the lower nodes, maximizing micro-climate airflow, and keeping the environment perfectly dialed in! 🌪️🎯 Quick Check: During the cleanup, I meticulously inspected the node junctions under the dense foliage. 🔍 Spotted a couple of micro-hermie signs (tiny 0.5mm pollen sacks) hidden deep down due to the extreme stretch stress. 🛑 Caught them early at a completely immature stage, neutralized them instantly with water, and plucked them off. 💦 Everything is perfectly safe, clean, and back on a pure female track! 👩‍⚕️✨ Nutrition & Environmental Metrics 🥥⚙️💧 The Athena Ag Blended Line combined with the automated AutoPot System is proving once again why it’s a commercial-tier cheat code! 🏆 The root zone is chugging nutrients nonstop, maintaining beautiful, deep, vibrant green leaf colors, and the foliage is actively "praying" to the light! 🙏☀️ Here are the exact laboratory specs for this week: EC: 1.8 ⚡ (Feeding heavy to match the massive stretch demands!) pH: 5.7 (Perfectly stabilized for optimal hydro/coco nutrient uptake!) PPFD: 700 µmol/m²/s 💡 (Pure photon power dialing in the energy!) No real pistil explosions just yet, as the plants are currently dedicating 100% of their energy into building the ultimate structural frame. 🏗️ Once this furious stretch slows down over the next few days, we are expecting a massive breakout of white hairs and the first real bud formations! ❄️🔮 Stay tuned, the lab is locked, loaded, and ready to dominate Week 3! 🔬🔥👑

December 16: Placed seeds into rapid rooters for germination. December 21: Seed has germinated and broken through the top of the rapid rooter. December 22: Planted in seedling pot. December 23: Start of mild fertigation.

Good week of fattening up and the last week of feeding done she’s getting a flush for the next week and cropping on Boxing Day . An absolute dream to grow , she’s handled temps well above 35c not one drama the entire grow . I’ve been smoking this flat out the last week and it’s a top smoke , full berry taste and an almighty stone that last for ages , best thing is there’s about a pound of it to smoke . Merry Christmas to me

God damn I love this genetic. She's flopping over from all the weight she's producing. I'm keeping her upright though. Trying to keep the humidity down with how thick she's getting. She's still in the bulk phase and is throwing pistils and packing weight like crazy. Each day I'm having to try and tie her up in some way or another. I should've used a scrog net after the first time, I knew that she flopped over hard like this after the first time I grew her. Using the earthbox is making everything super easy.

Plants are really flowering still small but plant one has a lot of tops now and plant 2’s buds are already getting dense.

I (pre-moistened) worked in 2.5 gallons of de-chlorinated tap water, with my fingers into this high-porosity soilless growing medium. This variant is very dry, and seems to reject water, until moistened(3cu ft compressed, Agro a5-hp from local nursery). Even after the 2.5 gallons of water was worked in (with no runoff), there was still a dry patch at the bottom of the pot.. I figured it would start to absorb from the wet medium on top, over time. It is now Day 10, and the moistened medium never needed to be watered since day 1. The medium is almost dry enough to be watered (see final picture). Maybe one or two more days. I will poke/scratch the soil daily, to ensure that I wait long enough, to not over-water.

Blue Banana Cream by Mademen Genetics - Week 5 Update VPD aim 1-1.2kPa Continuing from the last update, this week has shown even more trichome development. Pheno #1: Bud structure remains airy, but trichomes are steadily increasing Pheno #2: Medium-density compact buds, showing traits reminiscent of the Banana lineage The grow room is starting to fill with a stronger aroma as the plants enter the bud-building phase. Exciting progress ahead—thank you for following along!

The plants all look healthy going thru this first budding phase we are almost done with week 2 of flower which will end on wednsday. I bought some pot elevators, and tied apart a few tops growing closer together. All plants tops look even except the first split plant which has a few stretchers, Not to bad tho. I feed 2 times a week and the rest straight distilled water which reads 6.5 ph. Assuming my coco's natural ph balance is wearing slime starting week 3, I'm going to ph to 6.2.

Another week closer.... This grow went really well, we are at 43 days budding only have about 15 to 20 more days to go. Both the Gorilla Glue #4 and the Shiskaberry grew without any problems, Great genetics.. All 3 of the Shiskaberrys were the same and you would swear they came from a clone but no from seed and grew like twins..... Not much else to say. Until next week, smoke a fatty, help out your fellow grower.

30.05. - 05.06. (DD.MM.) Because the seeds were eaten by fungus gnat larvae in the first two attempts, in which I placed the seeds in a large pot immediately after germination, I first grew the seeds in a smaller pot (approx. 10 cm in diameter) for this third attempt. Because of the fungus gnat larvae, i poured boiling water over my soil before planting and then covered it with aluminum foil until it was cold. That way I was able to kill all the larvae. I put the plant in my self-made growbox (50 x 50 x 120cm) after about 5 days. The plant was under a planting bell and was watered with 10ml of water on the 7th day after planting.

16 days of slow drying each plant with the environment controlled inside the tent with 2 meters. I have two fans on, pointing at the floor to circulate the air temps - 20 - 23 º humid - 50- 60 %
