Week 8 Conditions: 25°C - 60% humidity Light Ts 1000 x 2 - 80% -18h/24 6 différent strains give different plants. 2 groups: — AK 47 / Bubble Gum / CaliFunk (Serious Seeds + THSeeds): good development with training and topping. Pretty Canopy with lots of ramifications. — Sour Glue / Green Punch /Royal Gorilla (Medical seeds + RQS): plants look less healthy, less vigorous and developed. 2 reasons of Stress for plants: some Aphids are in the culture. May be I imported this pest with my outdoor session…Shit. I treated with Soap and Neem Oil, putting sticky traps. A few leaves and young shoots are burn . Don’t think about light burn: I didn’t exposed plants to the light after spraying treatments. I reduced light to protect plants but light deficiency cause damages too. I feed the plants for the first time with growth nutrients: may be it caused a nitrogen excess. The soil is very rich and doesn’t need more nutrients. I flushed with clean water and let the plants recovering one more week on vegetative cycle. The Green Punch is the most injured, the others 5 are relatively safe. Did a 2nd topping on AK47, Bubble Gum, Sour Diesel week 7

Higher humidity forced me to harvest early with Some bud rot Very sweet almost sour tangerine smell Got in my room drying in a brown paper bag in about 73 degrees and 52% humidity

this week is going really good! I am flushing right now with just plain water. I was supposed to harvest but I decided to give it another watering since the ppm values were the maximum recommended for harvest and I want as less fertilizer in my buds as possible😁 next time I'll water I'll give them 4/5 liters per plant and when the soil is kinda moist and about to dry I will give them 24 hrs of darkness to increase resin and then FINALLY chop everything off! I'm really excited to try them! they smell really amazing.

The spinning top stopped on the Bibiscotti Gelato ! Big fan of those dessert strains! Already rocked the Fast Buds autos, now it’s time to run the photos hehe. Got 100% germ rate, off to a banging start!🤩

The bloody timer is gonna be the death of me but all in line and shouldn’t have this problem again. growing right along. Super cropped to even canopy and get some distance from lights. Wish she’d bud out quicker as the babies planted a few weeks back are growing more now too. But patience is key here. Max temp 84.1 Min temp 71.8 Rh max 34% Min 28%

Hey gang we going in on those clone set, hopefully I can get humidity up and force the roots to shoot, other then that just patiently waiting lol thanks guys lfg!!!! ***************************************** 06/06/2024 We have ignition!!! Roots have arrived lfgggg!!!!! Scope the pics section!!!!!!

Nicole está a la altura de ser una planta de extracción

Plant growing phenomenally really filled out the entire net and ready to let her grow up for the next week or two. Making tea as of today May 31st. Tea is made of worm castings, a little craft blend, a little big 6, and some blackstrap molasses. I plan on watering her with this tea starting June 1st. I added some European night crawlers today. They looked dead when I got them but I added them to the pot and everyone disappeared so evidentially they are still kicking. Pot already has red wigglers for topsoil aeration these guys will help aerate deeper in the root zone It’s been 7 days since flip. It needs a defoliation but I always wait at least 14 days especially in living soil. I’ll do a heavy defoliation at day 14 and likely another smaller one on day 42. Really looking forward to see how this thing flowers. Really interesting strain. Picked it up from a really legit lab in Michigan. They have tissue cultures for most cannabis cup winners; this strain is a bit of a no namer though. Seems like it was bred by a gentlemen known as kick flip genetics, looking at his cuts he clearly has access to high quality genomes, must be a reason this lab decided this was worth producing. I’ll find out God bless Edit June 1st: Noticed what could be some PM on a singular lower leaf likely due to humidity in the 70s so decided to do a pretty heavy defoliation. Did a lollipop for the first time ever. With lower leaf mass being removed the humidity is sitting around 55 now. Interested to see if the lollipop actually pushes energy to those top buds. I hate to do a defoliation at this point in flower(7 days into stretch) but she’s got plenty of leaves left and should recover quick God bless

The temperatures, humidity, and watering volume(if measured) in grow conditions are all averaged for the week. The pH is soil pH. Any watering done by me is well water which is 7.6 pH and 50° F. Any listed nutrients are ml/gallon of soil. Day 1 we had high temperature of 89 with mostly sunny skies. I watered 2-3 gallons per pot. Day 2 we had a high temperature of 90°F with clear, sunny skies. I watered 2-2.5 gallons from the hose. Day 3 we had a high temperature of 97°F with mostly sunny skies. It was a scorcher. I watered 2-3 gallon twice today from the hose. Day 4 we had high temperature of 95°, but it felt like 102°. Skies were partly cloudy. I watered 2-3 gallons twice today. Day 5 we had rain the previous night and early morning. We had cloudy skies, with high temperature of 81°F. I did not water today. I added 50ml of blood meal top dressed to each pot. Day 6 we had a high temperature of 87°F and mostly sunny skies. I watered 2-3 gallons. Day 7 we had partly cloudy skies and a high temperature of 86°F. I watered 2-3 gallons each pot

Eternity Grow Cup - Week 9 Veg Update We are stepping into Week 9 of vegetation, and things are getting exciting! The plants are thriving—compact, bushy, and growing beautifully. This week, we introduced a SCROG (Screen of Green) net, an essential tool for maximizing yield and optimizing plant structure. Let’s dive deep into the why and how of scrogging: Why Install a SCROG Net Now? Maximizes Light Exposure: The net allows even light distribution across all branches, ensuring every bud site gets the optimal amount of light. Controls Plant Height: By guiding the branches through the net, we keep the canopy even and prevent excessive vertical growth. Enhances Airflow & Reduces Mold Risks: Spreading the plant out increases air circulation, reducing humidity pockets and minimizing risks of mold and pests. Increases Yield: More bud sites exposed to light mean higher-quality flowers and greater overall production. For now, we’re still not using the under-canopy lights, though they will come into play soon. The ICL 300 is positioned strategically, and we will likely move them around as needed later. For now, the focus is on structuring the plants and ensuring they fill out the available space properly. Optimizing Airflow - The Vortex Effect Air circulation is crucial for plant health, and this week, we’ve optimized airflow by positioning the fans to create a vortex effect: Fan Positioning: Each fan is placed at the tent corners, pointing in different directions, ensuring dynamic airflow instead of direct wind hitting the plants. Benefits of a Vortex System: Reduces hot spots and evenly distributes CO₂. Strengthens stems by creating a natural resistance. Prevents stagnant air, reducing mold and pest risks. The extraction system is powered by an AeroFan, connected to the AeroFan Smart Remote FRC1, currently running at 60% speed. This setup efficiently manages humidity and temperature while maintaining optimal air exchange. Current Environmental Conditions & Feeding For now, we’re maintaining the same water schedule and nutrient regimen. The environmental conditions remain stable: Temperature: Holding steady at ideal growth levels. Relative Humidity: Balanced to encourage healthy transpiration. PPFD (Photosynthetic Photon Flux Density): Kept at optimal levels to support vigorous vegetative growth. CO₂ Levels: Elevated but within safe limits, promoting faster growth. The plants are filling the space beautifully, but we know that the flip to flower is approaching soon! The next phase will depend on how fast they continue to spread, and adjustments will be made accordingly. Closing Thoughts & What’s Next? This week was all about structural optimization—ensuring proper airflow, training the plants with the SCROG net, and keeping everything in balance before the transition to flower. The upcoming weeks will be crucial, as we fine-tune the environment, possibly introduce the under-canopy lighting, and prepare for the flowering stage.

Still have these ladies in there Solo cups will most likely pot these girls this week Finally moved these ladies over to there pots looking good for now Oh yea no nuts just yet still going with PH bal water

Day 43_________________________ - Decided to make the 12/12 shift due to my Caramelino growing enough to risk light burn if it doubles in size during flower. I have the light as high as I can safely put it in my tent with fans constantly on above the lights, and still only have 33” of space from the top leaves. - That being said, lots of LST will be used to fan out instead of up. - Flushed out the system completely this time. Before I would drain enough for the water pump to suck in air, but this time I filled with 50 gal of pH’ed water. Then I measured PPM. I stopped when the remainder of the water was 250PPM. Just a little richer than my tap water. Should have been doing this the entire time. Probably wouldn’t have had the nute burn spots that I was getting when I was 1400-1500 after half a week of the plant eating and drinking. Now is sitting just above 1000. I feel the plants will appreciate the break from over-nuting. Day 48______________________________ - plants are all loving the lower PPM numbers and pushing through the trellis net. - Plants are all drinking about 5 gallons every 3 or 4 days. Replenishing with pH’ed water when I notice a significant drop. - Two main shoots are becoming a pain to try to keep at the same level of all the others. LOTS of LST.

I gave her her first feed with the Emerald Harvest nutes. Still yellowing out on me anyone know what could be wrong?

almost harvest.. not yet.. gonna let her enjoy those last 'indian summer' days this week.. so she can finish her buds in peace 😎👍 caterpillers have gone (i caught them all i think..havent seen one in a few hours,..im checking all day long) so now she will have no more stress from that👍 happy growing for all✊

+ # Day 35: growing !!! Day 34: more light, more progress Day 33: 3L Water (mixed EC 4.8) + Nutrien = PH 5.8 Day 32: expanding !! Day 31: temps go down , Pantime feels happy !!! Day 30: Okay, it's staying small now, and it's growing at an angle, so something must have happened to the roots. Well, it'll be interesting to see what happens. Day 29: all fine . it grows . +

4/27. Shes long and lanky but happy and strong. Responded well to the topping. I tucked the top nodes underneath the fan leaves in hopes that maybe her other branches will shoot up. If not, ill tie them down in the weeks to come

03.04. Day 64 Flower 40 Hallo Leute seid mir willkommen zu : GRAPE APE F1 die einem beim Riechen zum Niesen bringt. Es kribbelt wie Zitronensäure. Die muss sauer sein. Es gibt immer mehr Lila, auf jeder Traubenaffen F1 die so ca 2 Wochen in Blüte ist. Schick. Die Pflanzen an sich bleiben klein, kein Wachstum. Die Knospen schon 😍. Sie Pludern sich auf, strecken sich und werden bestimmt hart sein. Das habe ich nicht getestet, ich will ihre Entwicklung nicht stören. ❤️ Ich liebe Cannabis zu growen. Das macht so viel Spaß ( wenn es klappt ). Ich bin zwar Großmeister, und meine Knospen sind herrlich, aber meine Pflanzen sehen immer sehr mitgenommen aus. Hüstel(geheucheltes Husten, nur wegen der Dramatik) Wenn ich das kann, kannst du das auch. Es ist legal in Deutschland 3 Pflanzen zu haben. Ich würde sagen Grape Ape auf dem Balkon geht voll klar. Gute Erde dazu. Dünger wäre toll, ist aber kein muss. Die Nachbarn kriegen das auf jeden Fall nicht über den Geruch mit . 1. Dezent 2. Weintrauben 3. Klein Nur so als Gedanke. Ich freue mich jedenfalls über ihr Aussehen ( für mich, nicht schlecht ), und diesen Geruch. So Sauer+Trauben+weed. Ich glaube das ist ne richtige Hardcore INDICA. 😳 Steht ja auch so in der Beschreibung.... 👍 04.04. das 65. Die erste Knospe ist wirklich fertig! 😳😍 Wow , das hätte ich nicht gedacht. Komplett milchig, die Hauptknospe. Mit Licht Gehampel, day 65 ab Keimung, 💪 stark. Natürlich, wer mich kennt, es gibt noch ein Paar Tage. 2 Gründe, mehr Gewicht, und ich hätte gerne ein wenig Amber Trichs. Aber sie riecht geil, ihre Knospen sind fest und klebrig. Ja, und dann kommen ja noch ihre F1 Schwestern. ? Also Wahnsinn. So Schnell. 07.04. dieses eine Blatt hat so krasse Farben. Leuchtend Radioaktiv. Was wird das für weed? So, genau ab jetzt hat sie mich. Die Grape Ape F1. Diese Farben sind 😍. Hat zwar etwas gedauert bis ich fan wurde, wegen wo ist sie denn ( sehr klein, die gröste bisher 47 cm. ) . Aber als sie die Farben änderte, und der Geruch dazu kam fand ich die Interessant. Ist wichtig, denn ich mag Cannabis als Pflanze sehr, da schnell und schön. Und im besten Fall, BUNT. Wie diese hier. Und ich bin gespannt welche Farben die anderen bekommen. Die sind zwar alle ähnlich, aber im Charakter unterschiedlich. Also, ich sage es gleich. Viel kommt da nicht runter. Wie denn auch, ist sehr klein. 21% THC Indica Style. Das geht nur mit kleinen Pflanzen. Indicas sind halt klein. Und schlagen hart zu. Wie Zwerge. Ich liebe Zwerge ( es sei denn ihr habt eine Audienz bei Hochlord von irgendwo. Ich glaube Zwerge sehen nur einmal in ihrem Leben Wasser. Bei der Geburt.👍 Leute ihr müsst die untern Tisch saufen. Nen Zwerg, das ist hart, dann könnt ihr in Baden, wenn er besinnungslos ist. ) Nur so als Tip.

day 42: LOTTA leaves, had to defoliate 2-3 times. they started to show their first pistils a couple days before the Ayahuascas, hope I can do a harvest before May,(the Peyotes) but it seems really tricky..unfortunately I need to leave them for a week in April. I'm pretty scared to leave them alone at the end of flowering... Day 43: do you think the leaves on 2 plants might be too dark green? Thanks! day 46: defoliating
