Red Hot Cookies goes Indoor! 🍪💡 This week marked a big transition for my Red Hot Cookies photoperiod, as the relentless rain finally made me pull the plug on her outdoor run—for now. 🌧️ With more wet days on the horizon, I moved her into the grow tent, now running under a 300W LED to ensure the buds can develop in peace. She’s currently sharing the space with my two lovely Divine Seeds autos from the ongoing Divine Seeds V2.0 Competition, and the energy inside the tent is buzzing. ⚡🌱 Since the switch indoors, she’s adapting really well. 🌿 The buds are swelling visibly, and I’ve started to see a nice layer of early trichome frost forming on the sugar leaves. The scent is starting to develop—still subtle, but promising! However, I did notice some slight yellowing on the bottom fan leaves, which pointed to a nitrogen deficiency. Likely due to her strong structure and demanding flower phase, so I’ve increased BioBizz Grow slightly in this week’s feeding plan. Here’s what went into her care routine this week: 🔸 BioBizz Grow, Bloom & TopMax (standard dosage, with Grow slightly increased) 🔸 CalMag support for water hardness 🔸 Alg-a-Mic for overall vitality and stress resilience 🔸 Effective Microorganisms added to enrich microbial life 🔸 Homebrewed compost tea for extra soil life and root stimulation 🔸 pH: 6.5, carefully adjusted with BioBizz pH- 🔸 EC: 2.0, right in the sweet spot for mid-flower ✂️ On Day 21 of flower (10/07), I performed lollipopping to clean up the lower growth and focus energy upward She’s now officially in Week 4 of flower, and I couldn’t be happier with how she’s shaping up. Indoors she’s finally getting the light and airflow she deserves—no rain, no pests, just a controlled environment and full focus on fattening those buds. Let’s see how the next weeks unfold! 🔥🌿

Yo yo yo! Day 8 The start of week 2 growth seems ok. Although as always I’m very impatient at this point. Watered with plain water today. Let’s see what this week holds for us. Below is a link to RQS if you would like to have a look at there selection. ✌️ Day 10, added a little heater into the mix as night time temps were dropping, seems to have done the job. Plodding along. ✌️ Day 11, gone to 18/6 DLI 34 watered with plain water tonight. Day 14, not a lot to report. Girls are doing ok. Some good growth this week. Watered last night. ✌️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️https://www.royalqueenseeds.com/uk/autoflowering-cannabis-seeds/633-wedding-cake-automatic.html⭐️⭐️⭐️

So i never ended up doing the nutes i had. I waited until seeing pre flower and top dressed with natures living soil autoflower concentrate. So far so good. I do think they were cal-mag starved prior to adding this because they did start to yellow a bit in between veins. Going all organic from here on out and doing super soil.

Hi. I try to do an LST on the three plants, but the stem of one of them broke slightly, so I had to fix it with a tape. I hope he survives! The Brooklyn is blooming, but the another two no. See you!

Got bud rot. It was foggy and raining second last week before chop….and not gonna lie, prolly cuz it was sitting under the carbon filter. I haven’t changed or washed the pre-filter in a year, just a light tap and I can see dust flying everywhere. Prolly tossed 1/3lb into garbage. Harvested prolly 1/2lb of tops and mids. And threw all the larf into the freezer for bubble hash. Will update in a few weeks after cure. This was a fun run. Mars Hydro for the win!

La Gelato le lleva unos 20 centimetros a todas, no se si es por la variedad o porque absorbio diferente la luz

26/05/2021 (Day 71) Se realizo un nuevo cambio de nutrientes y las plantas vienen mas felices que nunca, no se observa ni una carencia en las hojas y los parámetros se encuentran muy controlados. 29/05/2021 (Day 74) Se agregó 20L de solución, las plantas vienen muy bien comenzándo el engorde de una manera muy optima. El espacio de cultivo está repleto 100% en conjunto con los 600W en 8 chips de Citizen que logran llegar a todos los puntos de la carpa.

8e Semaine de floraison impeccable grossi bien chargé en résine irrigation a l'eau uniquement durant les 2 dernières semaines. J'ai vérifié les colas es celle-ci c'est fait polinisé par le male Sour tangie dawg mais rien de grave quelques graines, cela me permettra d'avoir une nouvelle génétique issue de ces deux plantes donc a voir ne pas ce précipiter. Elle dégage une plus douce odeur durant ces derniers jours.

Can’t argue with the yield with no added bloom booster and a over feed of cal mag which stalled a week too.

the first crooked leaves were not a problem. the 6 plants are vegging nicely showing large broad leaves - two sets now and beginning to sprout the third set of leaves. started nutrients this week and root juice. 150ml filtered water every other day - lights at 20 inches and 60% power. the ladies are looking good!

This is the last post with mid quality pictures and video since I will be going home soon 😀. It is a bit rainy back home so she has to be under a roof or inside a lot of the time. The nutes will be upped to 4ml/l for both the grow and the bloom nutes.

😎☀️ Outdoor season ☀️😎 So with the Kosher Cake i will not aim for big weights, but instead it will be just a little test to see how it will react outside. Usually the sun reaches my house for not many hours so we'll see.. However, it will be a fun and new thing for me, growing an autoflower and outside are things that i have not done so far.. I think i will let her grow two weeks inside the tent and then move her outside for the rest of her growth.

Views expressed are my own. All opinions are my own. The opinions expressed here belong solely to me and do not reflect the views of Growdiaries or Grandcru Genetics. The cannabis strain Grape Guava can be a purple strain, depending on its specific phenotype and genetic makeup. While not all phenotypes of Grape Guava are purple, some variations, such as the Zatix Grape Guava, are noted for their striking purple appearance due to the genetic expression of anthocyanin pigments. Grand Cru Genetics is a cannabis seed bank that emerged in 2018 from a group of breeders in Madrid to provide a satisfactory experience to all cannabis users. "If we do things, we do them well. Due to our experience in the sector and our taste for excellence, we know high quality and we seek it in everything we propose and do." "We have a “cultivate without giving up” philosophy that we apply to everything we do. We do not give up, we are friends of change, and we adapt as necessary in a still restricted sector." "We speak relaxed because we know how to relax. We are not intense or preachy; we accept everyone as they are, and we understand that farming is not for everyone. But for those who do, we are here to accompany you. We like to do it and tell it. We are experts in the field because we are the first to do it. We speak from experience and connect with others because we share the passion for cultivation." "Cannabis has the ability to show us a world of possibilities. When you cultivate and live its growth process, you enjoy a path full of emotions and not just the final destination. At Grand Cru we find beauty in small things. We are attentive, observant, detail-oriented and aware of everyday things, and we savor them without rushing." In a garden of green, Grape Guava gleams, With its fruity aroma, enchanting dreams. Clusters of grapes, guava's sweetness ignite, A strain so divine, in purple and white. Euphoria whispers, a lush fruity haze, Grape Guava's embrace, a tranquil daze. Off and away.@1400ppm. The increased CO2 allows plants to thrive at higher temperatures, which in turn necessitates higher humidity to maintain the ideal VPD for healthy growth and transpiration. 80F -5F = 75F LST with 70% RH = 0.72 kPa. Higher temperatures and humidity promote rapid growth, nutrient uptake, and photosynthesis while maintaining a lower stress level. Temperature influences the rate of enzymatic reactions involved in aerobic respiration. Enzymes, such as those involved in glycolysis, the Krebs cycle, and the electron transport chain, work most efficiently at an optimal temperature range. In low temperatures, enzymatic activity will slow down, thus reducing the rate of aerobic respiration. In high temperatures, enzymes can become denatured, thus impairing their function and stopping the process of aerobic respiration. Glucose is the primary fuel for aerobic respiration. The rate of aerobic respiration increases with the availability of glucose, as it is the starting point for glycolysis. If glucose levels are low, cells may rely on alternative energy sources such as fatty acids or amino acids , but these processes may yield less ATP or be less efficient. To determine this effect, carbon dioxide volume was measured (as carbon dioxide is an output of aerobic respiration) 18/6 with the 6 being IR. The near infrared (IR-a) borders around 700nm up to 1400nm @ photon par flux density of 1.8 instead of darkness, keeping temps overnight a neat 77F-80F. I think of my tent as a lung. What goes in must come out. When the rate of air going out exceeds the amount of air coming in, it creates a negative pressure. Tent concaves (bends in). If set up correctly, the RH will begin to drop slowly to the desired level I set, and the extraction turns off when it reaches the desired RH. The plant, as it performs cellular respiration, will always release more water into the air; therefore, the RH% of the tent overnight will increase, as long as oxidative phosphorylation is occurring. As soon as the RH% creeps back up to 55%, the extraction turns back on, over and over. This creates a strong pressure differential, which will work wonders with mass flow. Replicating high and low-pressure fronts in nature. Critical for oxygen diffusion at the critical time of peak cellular respiratory function.. Moisture will not transfer from a saturated atmosphere to another if that air is already at or above its saturation point, meaning the air can't hold any more water vapor. Once I understood that water is produced as a by product during cellular respiration, specifically at the very end of the electron transport chain (ETC) where electrons are finally transferred to molecular oxygen, the higher the RH of the air, the more resistance there is for more moisture to be added to that environment, and effects the ease with which it does so. But none of that water comes from the pot; it's pulled from the air. If you run high daytime RH, your medium/pot is 100% reliant on transpirational root pull to move water. ZERO evaporation happens across the atmosphere if the tent air has high RH%, the medium cannot release its water through evaporation. Once a canopy develops, light no longer slowly wicks and evaporates from the topsoil. The Soil-Plant-Atmosphere Continuum (SPAC) describes the continuous pathway and process of water movement, driven by a gradient in water potential, from the soil, through the plant's roots, stem, and leaves, and finally evaporating into the atmosphere through transpiration. There is evaporation, there is transpiration, and then there is evapotranspiration; Evapotranspiration (ET) is the combined total of two processes: evaporation (water lost directly from soil and surface water into the atmosphere) and transpiration (water released from plants to the atmosphere through their leaves). Evapotranspiration represents the total amount of water that moves from the medium into the air. There is no such thing as a medium with too much water, only a medium that retains too much for too long. The water must always flow efficiently from one atmosphere(Medium) to another(Air) in a timely manner. Moisture is a critical factor for bacterial growth and decay. Dictating how long it's allowed to sit in any one location for any given period is a key preferred control. To ensure a net reduction in a bacterial population, the rate of removal (ET) must exceed the rate of bacterial growth (decay rate), which is often modeled as a growth rate for the specific bacterium under the given conditions. By optimizing daytime VPD, we also optimize conditions for bacterial growth to explode exponentially above 77°F.. If water is allowed to sit in a medium without an escape within a timeframe, nothing good will happen. IF High RH is maintained overnight as well as during the day, placing 100% of water movement at the behest of daytime transpiration, roots can only pull where they can reach, and if soil is compressed above a certain point, moisture will become trapped in a medium with no way of moving day or night. This will begin the countdown for decay to take hold. When water stagnates in a medium, it loses oxygen, creating anaerobic conditions that foster the growth of harmful microorganisms like bacteria and fungi, which can produce toxins and disease vectors. Thigmomorphogenesis, the process by which plants respond to mechanical stimuli like touch by altering their growth and development, results in significant morphological changes to improve survival against mechanical perturbations. This complex response involves sensing touch and initiating physiological and genetic responses, leading to changes in form and structure over days or weeks. The process is triggered by physical forces such as wind, rain, or touch. Plants adapt to these stimuli by changing their shape and structure, which may include slower growth, thickened stems, or altered leaf development. Plants possess sophisticated mechanisms to detect even subtle mechanical stimuli and initiate responses. A variety of molecules, including calcium ions, jasmonates, ethylene, and nitric oxide, are involved in signaling these mechanical inputs. Touch can induce the expression of genes that encode proteins for calcium sensing, cell wall modification, and defense mechanisms. A plant exposed to constant wind may become shorter and sturdier. A plant that is touched frequently might grow more slowly to conserve energy and develop thicker cell walls. These changes increase a plant's resilience and ability to survive in harsh environments. Let's get Thiggy with it.

Glæd jer til at se mere om mit nye gro rum nu med 2 telte hydro osv. Telt nr 2 kommer desværre ikke i brug før om Ca til 5 dage, da jeg glemte at bestille ventilation og kulfilter
