Lily_Bloom Transitioning from soil to hydro. Being this gentle for not damaging the roots took a lot of time, but was definitely worth it.

Lily_Bloom Still taking it slow in the second week with fertilizing, because of the transition and increased the humidity a little more than I would usually do. Started with the first training by the end of the week. Note, used plagrons sugar royal as a leaf spray only!

Lily_Bloom The fimming and cropping worked so well that I couldn’t tell which of the 8 branches would be the main one. Very happy about it and decided to keep between 1-3 side branches on each of the main branches. Muahahaha

Lily_Bloom Time to move. Giving Frankenstein a little time to acclimate in the new environment by only defoliating a handful leafs but increased the dosage of fertiliser and startet adding supplements. The name was given by a friend because of the way I trained it…

Lily_Bloom Everything is going well so far. Was thinking about doing the switch, but decided to keep it running in growth for another week, because I felt quite comfortable in handling the oncoming stretch and still increased the dosage of supplements slowly. Gut Ding will Weile haben :) Note, only using silica in the last two days before nutrient change, because of possible instability of the solution.

Lily_Bloom In this week I started spreading the branches again and defoliated as a preparation for the switch. And now we are ready to go! Can’t wait to see how this cultivation will work out :) Last solution with the Aqua Vega A+B from Canna.

Lily_Bloom Pretty soft stretching so far. Might be because of the loooong growth stage Frankenstein went through. Especially for hydro many might say it was unnecessary. But I guess still curious though :D

Lily_Bloom It feels like Frankenstein decided to put most of its power into growing new leafs instead of anything else. I usually don’t defoliate throughout the first 3 weeks of flowering, but it was just really tough to keep the humidity right. From now on I will add 5 litre of new solution with half of the nutrients to the bucket, around 3-4 days into the week. I also decreased the EC a little because Frankie is in need of more water than fertiliser.

Lily_Bloom The pH level started dancing a lot this week. But I kept it going and it didn’t go up too high. Leaving the plant regulating itself in a spectrum has always worked out fine. I also increased the soup to 13 litres, because Frankie’s a glutton. Not to forget the 5 litres in the middle of the week.

Lily_Bloom Had to change the solution at day 4 because the Ph went up to 6.8 and I still don’t know why. And yes, I see… I need to learn how to make better photos. Got the info nearly every time when I upload. Ok.. ok.. :D

Lily_Bloom Noticed a little late that the plant needs more water than nutrients again... Burned Frankensteins tips a little.

Lily_Bloom Aaaaaargh :( Was trying another bloom booster this time and overlooked the fact, that the PK proportion was just too high at this stage for my nutrient solution to work well for the plant. I immediately changed the NS, but it took me a day to notice. Should have not only scaled the PK in the new NS, but the whole Ec for the better.

Lily_Bloom The wrong nutrient uptake slowed the whole ripening process for more than a week. The resin production was still in full swing and I checked the trichomes every second day, for trying to find my personal sweet spot.

Doesn’t liked to be pushed too hard with the amount of given nutrients. Overall an uncomplicated and easy trainable plant. Pretty satisfied :)

Lily_Bloom Wet trimmed Frankie completely. I took my time with it and finished it in the evening hours of 3 days. Pictures of the cured buds will follow.

What a well done report, i can't believe it has so less community views, but i think it's because of the slightly brownish roots thumbnail, that looks less attractive to the eye than cured buds : -) For me as hydrogrower, it made me click, as roots are an interesting indicator for hydro growing and i'm always checking what other people use as nutrients. So i read you use Canna, i think this page allows to add the nutrient brand as a grow-stat so that it gets shown like all the other values (Temp, pH, etc.). I hope you can enjoy the smoke soon! Cheers

@MarihuanaMichel, I appreciate your comment a lot! I will edit this report, adding the nutrients I use and you are so right, some pictures of the buds of course! Thank you for sharing your thoughts with me!
