Happy New Year!!! Over the past week I did some HST bending on my photos and cut down 2 of the 3 Blackberry’s. The branches are starting to recover and straighten out after the HST now. I still have some issues with pale leaves and a few spots here and there. I’m going to try adding some Dolomite Lime with the next watering and think that should help with the paleness. I’m also going to up the amount of CalMag and Mammoth P to see if that helps with the spotting. I’m not sure if I should see the spotted leaves recover or if the spots will remain. I suspect the spots will remain on the existing leaves regardless of what I do at this point, but hopefully no new spotting will develop. The lights went off before I was done taking pics, so some pics will look a little different. The pics with the lights on I had to color correct, they still look a little more on the yellow side than in reality, but much closer to reality than the pre-color corrected versions. Once the lights went off I turned the flash on for my camera, those pics did not need any color correction. You can see the differences in the pics of all plants, the first 2 are color corrected with the lights on, the last 2 are taken with a flash and no color correction. Also all close up pics of the Critical+ are with the lights off and flash on. I read several books on cannabis over the past few days, some good, some not so much. One that I liked was “Marijuana Cultivation Reconsidered: The Science and Techniques For Huge Indoor Yields” by Read Spear. This book is available on Amzon’s Kindle Unlimited service, which costs $9.99/month, but they offer a free 30 day trial (which is what I’m using at the moment). Reed’s book is broken down into 3 sections, the first and third go fairly deep into the science behind growing, he does a pretty good job at breaking it down in easy to understand terms, but I had to read several sections 2 or 3 times to really get it (or just move on with as much understanding as I could digest). The second section is the nuts and bolts of growing. Most was a review but there were several topics he touched on I hadn’t thought of in a while. And again its well written. He also offers the section only in a separate book called “Small Spaces, Big Yields”. If you are not interested in going deeper into the science behind growing, “Small Spaces, Big Yields” is what I would recommend (if interested in reading books on cannabis). I took some notes while reading and I’m going to add some of these notes in my dairy updates over the next few weeks. This week I’m going to include a note on electrical, this should be a fairly basic concept, but it is super important IMO… “Electrical Items In a sealed grow room or in a tent, you will have water pooling on the floor from time to time. There is no avoiding this. Mop it up when you see it, and never put your electrical gear directly on the floor. Never. Not even for a moment. In fact, let me stress this point in bold capital letters. ALL ELECTRICAL GEAR MUST BE MOUNTED SECURELY ON A WALL OR TENT POLE.” -Read Spear I’ll add more did bits like this in my diaries over the upcoming weeks. If anyone has any good book recommendations please let me know in the comments. I’m looking for books that might not be as popular as the ones by Jorge Cervantes or Ed Rosenthal (I’ve read those). I did just order “True Living Organics” by The Rev which I’m looking forward to reading. But I’m looking for more. I really want to step it up and learn as much as possible. Your comments, feedback and recommendations are very much appreciated! Until next time, Happy Growing! Stay Positive! And have an amazing 2019!!!

07/04/2023 Last week on her, trichomes are looking cloudy. She got neglected a bit during veg and a bunch of stress from electricity outages, where I had to move the plant outside resulting in heat burn (it was around 38 celsius outside) thrips and ruining my scrog, thrips are kinda controlled, and lost a bit of leaves from heatburn, but no biggie. Moreover I diverted my attention to the clones and the other seed that is now a mother plant (see Perpetual KeroseneKrash diary). 14/04/2023 No more light for the next 48 hs and then I'll chopp her

1 Week since planting the seeds into soil! very healthy little seedlings! I think for this run. Will be running two 3 gallon pots next week or two. We do have the spider farmer SE3000 coming sometime which will give us all the power we need for flowering a full tent 8).Girls have a radio playing country of all eras all day long and when I’m around they get a dose of classic metal hope they are jamming out 🤘 Next week most likely homing into their 3 gal homes. Will be giving a shot of Microbes and Molasses. Coating root system with Dynomyco mycorrhiza!

Week 6 Flower Report: Maturation in Full Swing! 🌟 Welcome to the week where the magic of maturation takes center stage! 🌟 The garden has reached a pivotal moment as the trichomes are bursting with potential. Each one a glittering universe, they are the undeniable stars of this show, taking over every surface with their frosty brilliance. ✨ Watching them evolve is like witnessing art being created in real time – it’s a reminder of the beauty and patience this craft demands. Trichomes: The Frosty Frontier This week, the focus is all about those frosty beauties! • Trichomes are the key indicators of ripeness and cannabinoid production. Watching their progression from clear to cloudy to amber provides the ultimate insight into maturity. • Currently, we’re seeing a fantastic mix of cloudy trichomes with some clear still hanging around – a perfect sign that they’re gearing up for their final push. • Fun fact: Trichomes serve as the plant’s natural defense mechanism, protecting it from UV rays and pests while being our treasure trove for cannabinoids and terpenes. Spectrum Tuning: The Science of Light Light plays a major role in shaping the maturation process, and this week, we’ve dialed in the spectrum for optimal results. Here’s the breakdown: • Whites: Running at 77% to maintain robust overall growth and trichome density. • Deep Reds, Far Reds, and UV: Maxed out at 100% to mimic the end-of-season spectrum, signaling the plants to finish strong. • Deep Reds: Enhance photosynthesis efficiency through the Emerson effect. • Far Reds: Promote stretch and flowering hormone production. • UV: Stimulates trichome production for an extra boost of frost! We’ve also added a timing twist: • Reds & UV start 15 minutes before whites to simulate sunrise. • Reds & UV finish 15 minutes after whites to mimic sunset, creating a more natural light transition. These subtle timing tricks help reduce stress while optimizing light absorption, ensuring every photon counts! 🌞 Environmental Conditions: Precision is Key Here are the dialed-in parameters for the week: • Temps: 26.3°C • RH: 70.1% • CO2: 800 ppm • VPD: 1.03 kPa With these numbers, the ladies are thriving in their sweet spot, absorbing nutrients efficiently while maximizing trichome development. Lighting Power: • Lower layer at 800 PPFD and the upper layer shining bright at 1500 PPFD. The canopy coverage is perfect for even development throughout the garden. Nutrition: Balanced and Boosted We’ve stuck with the tried-and-true nutrient mix this week but with some strategic adjustments: • Removed Breaking Powder to focus on trichome maturity. • Introduced K-Boost at 0.5 ml/L, giving the plants the potassium edge they need to pack on weight and enhance terpene production. • Feeding solution details: • pH: 6.2 • TDS: 755 ppm • Temp: 20.6°C In the Autopots, the medium stays perfectly hydrated at 100% with: • TDS: 580 ppm • Temp: 22.2°C Shoutouts and Gratitude A huge shoutout to the amazing genetics and these incredible ladies, and a big thanks to Trol Master, Aptus Holland and Pro Mix for the stellar products that are elevating this grow to new heights! 🌱💪 To all growers out there, remember: Patience is the secret ingredient. Watch, learn, and trust the process – the results will always amaze you. Here’s to another week of growth and gratitude. Onwards to Week 7 with hearts full of joy and gardens full of frost! 🌟💚 Growers Love, Your Grateful Gardener Discount Codes so you can save big on your next check out 💚💚💚 Kannabia - DOGDOCTOR 30% off SeedsmanSeeds - DOGDOCTOR 10% off CannaKan- DOGDOCTOR 15% off terpyz.eu - DOCTOR 15% off The Neutralizer - PORKIT5-DOG 15% off Fast Buds - DOGDOCT 15% off As always thank you all for stopping by, for the love and for it all , this journey of mine wold just not be the same without you guys, the love and support is very much appreciated and i fell honored and so joyful with you all in my life 🙏

Después de llevar 13 días sin postear nada sobre mis autos debo decir que van en buen camino, llevan una floración más avanzada. Sigo con la misma dinámica, riego a base de aloe vera y semillas germinadas de soja verde esta vez he comenzado a agregar silicio para fortalecer la planta. La receta de té es la misma que la de antes: Tierra de cultivo 100g Hummus de lombriz 200g Guano de murciélago 80g Puñado de compost de caballo (imagino que unos en la anterior toma también 40g) Cola de caballo 2.5g Espirulina 7g Hidrolizado de kelp 20g Ácidos fulvico 2ml Melaza 90ml Siempre oxigenado 24h Preparado para 15 litros a las plantas más jóvenes al ser trasplantados hace poco les suministro diluido con una tercera parte de agua. Por la mañana aún llevando menos oxigenación les fumigo el te de compost también diluido a toda la terraza y les sienta genial. Os dejo escrito como he preparado mi tierra y las enmiendas realizadas. 50% sustrato antiguo bien reposado limpio de raíces ( light mix) en este caso, llevan casi un año y no tienen mucho nutriente pero esta en buen estado. 50% basado en 35% fibra de coco 15%hummus de lombriz 2l perlita Como extras nutrihemp, torta de neem y dolomita. Todo dosis recomendada. Sin medición de ph ni ec en ningún momento del cultivo. Es mi primera mezcla y por ahora las plantas transplantadas han tenido un cambio notable a como lo tenía al empezar el cultivo solo con tierra antigua y hummus. Tengo acompañando a estas auto a unas 6 feminizadas y otras 2 autos todas lucen verdes y sanas

🎄🎄🎄 Good day, bud lowers 👨‍❤️‍👨 👨‍❤️‍👨 👨‍❤️‍👨 👨‍❤️‍👨 🌲 Continues to stretch the girls in ScrOG. Within a week, the plant bummed to growth, look what happened! 🌲 ✂️ I do defoliation once a week, because it is difficult to fit such a plant under the net. ✂️ 💚 The buds are gaining mass really fast. I was surprised comparing Monday and Friday pictures. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ ✅ Harvest is coming. Therefore, the last watering with fertilizers will be next week, then only clean water and delicious things like sugar. ✅✅ 🙈 Are you ready to guess the result? In this report, the variety is revealed in full force. 🙈 🌲 Almost all trichomes are cloudy, there are practically no amber ones. New stigmas are still springing up. 🌲 ☢️ The plant very actively began to take nutrients from the leaves - the yellowness is noticeable. ☢️ 🌝 Please check this week pictures and small video I made for you .,🐛

Hello friends! 👋 🌿3rd week of Poppy flowering. -Blossoms, gaining mass. -There was a slight deficiency on the leaf, I added calcium and magnesium to the diet 2 times a week. -Big Bud from AN has been added to the diet. -Once a week I remove several (5-6) leaves that greatly block the light.
