Day 6 Week 9 Update Just made the picture, haven't checked anything yet.. don't think they get something to eat.

VID-20210708-WA0011.mp4 Shiii, guy's I'll have to make a video explaining my entire grow room! Uhhh, excuse how it looks, I never have visitors in here.

New grow, mostly the same equipment, a few new toys being trialed. 240W QB. Mammoth Pro 100. 1 x 150mm HIT centrifugal fan drawing fresh air from outdoors through a locally manufactured cartridge filter. 1 x 150mm HIT centrifugal fan exhausting outdoors through silencer. 1 x Brand new RAM oscillating fan(if your had these and they burned out, check if the serial No starts with 2020... These are from a faulty batch and your supplier will replace free of charge. Well that's what mine did). Nutes. Using straights for this run. Weekly foliar program which includes a pest management component 10ltr square pots which a close friend has developed. Hanna combo PH and EC meter. Hanna Groline Soil test™ EC Tester. I have free access to our work lux meter, just to see what's actually going on under the QB. Media is also slightly different. Coir/perlite and peat(Latvia and Poland sourced). So there is clarity from day 1. I don't care about yield! if I get good yield, bonus. More free cannabis products for the people around me. Like everything in my life, I learn best through failure, analyzing where I have come short, and using that as the basis for improvement. I know this method isn't everyone's cup of tea, and that's fine. 20 June 2021 Seeds went into straight coir with no soak. They received no special attention, just dumped on the table in our sunroom behind a north facing window. Seedling tray cavities have a 50mm diameter and are about 90mm deep, not sure how big they should get before transplanting. The root development as we progress will determine when they are planted into the 10ltr pots. I only intend keeping four maybe 5 ladies, the rest will be fed to the wood chipper. 1 July 2021 10 for 10. 2 seedlings had a secondary stem which was removed with a filth dirty pair of trimming scissors(LOL!). Seedling tray was then placed into the tent, they received their first feed and a folia.

Started 2 weeks ago. 5 sets of twins among them.

Hi I am a professional commercial cannabis contract Cultivator I own a Cannabis consulting agency specializing in construction of grow rooms and tunnels as well as problem solving I have recently invested in a extraction lab for production of CBD and CBG oils for medicinal users as well as production of medical grade edibles . Living the dream and sleeping when I die Happy days

It's not a matter of a twin gene. It has to do with the physiology of the calyx, having two pistils a calyx, and an ovule per pistil. In a natural pollination environment the pollen is diluted in the air, and generally only one of the pistils might catch pollen. Once a calyx is pollinated at one pistil the other dies as the seed starts to develop. When you look at the extreme density of having a whole male plant in a 1m2 space, then twin come up often as practically every pistil is pollinated at once. Twins are rarely identical, and are in fact separate genetic expressions.

Testing out the new 300mb, mp4 friendly upload feature! McLovin it! VID-20210708-WA0003.mp4 VID-20210708-WA0005.mp4

Package received. Thanks Groen seeds and everyone organizing Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Good day fellow florists. Time to dust this thread off. Made some progress with summer prep. Started a 6m x 2m growbed next to the tunnel for summer. As well as a seperate veggie patch with 6x 2x1m beds for the pretty redhead and her greenfingers. Started layering browns and greens with compost (240lt for our jojo bin) in between. Amended with rock dust, dol lime and bone meal. AACT will be applied to assist with microbial breakdown. All from renewable sources that would otherwise have gone into landfill. My low tech soil mixer. Beats mixing by spade.

Very cool scale, allready doing duty. (Winter grown Bluecheese) Thanks @PASSTHEDUTCH Awesome to have Sponsors like you guys onboard.

Congratulations and the pleasure is ours! The Original Afghani should be enough to plat with Cheers bud!!

If you can in your camera settings, select the light/ white balance, or called something like that, and choose the light, or Kelvin you closest too. Not Auto, like its preset probably

Pictures works better for me tbh. This big leaf one I'm actually thinking to clone tonight. She's pretty Sorry about the yellow pic, I know rules say we should avoid but my camera is going bonkers under the cobs, can't figure out what it wants to do.

understandable, and I appreciate you saying that, the only real advice we can give is that based on our own experience. when giving advice based on what others listed as "fact" we would just be discussing "hearsay". this is why I don't like when people try to convince me of things they read somewhere once, which sadly happens a lot in the community.

Can't stop won't stop nah ah nah ah!

What i bought as a Pineapple Express Darth Pini is at least dress friendly don't have hopes there is any Pineapple taste in the smoke.. more time wasting

Opened the tent this morning to a very chilly 15° inside. Frost on the ground in the garden. Everyone is looking good though. All ladies fed this morning. Started adding transition nutrients from Budding Genius on top of other nutes they're already getting. Fairy Dust: A premium bloom boost feed that increases flower size and mass. Stimulates flower development, resinous oils, and terpene production. Ingredients: derived from mono-potassium Phosphate, Potassium Hydroxide and a thiamine Hydrochloride. 1ml-1l Trance: A premium feed that promotes healthy vigorous growth. Ingredients: derived from marine extracts, liquid vermicast, chelated trace minerals, fish and seaweed extract, beeswax, amino acids and natural extracts. 3.5ml-1l Posted pics with and without the light on this morning.

This makes we wanna play with pollen Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Hi all Just a short video of some DoSiDo flower i pressed for a client Hope you enjoy

I started with 0.5ml per litre and worked upto 1.5ml. No issues so far Sent from my VOG-L09 using Tapatalk

...

Yeah, the two ovules are formed when the female strips her chromosomes in 2. Each representing one side of the 'x'. When both pistils are fertilized within that time period before what must be a chemical trigger to switch to seed development and each pollen grain reaches both ovules, they both develop and mostly share a single husk. Sometimes they don't, and just looking at the seed you can see its 2 seeds that are almost fused.

Will flip in 2 weeks time. I also topped the ladies. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Changed my whole grow setup this week. Got a 4x8 tent and stuck everything in there under the light. I put a 400Watt MH bulb in. Much easier to get the temp right in this tent than warming up a whole garage. Plants are loving it. Gave my plants their first Calmag and Wormcasting feed. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

they're all looking amazing, you done good selection here man!!

Well there's nice explanation. Thank you for sharing lol, so all rooms are banging into flower now. fun times

Tell em bru thats besides the gorilla grows

No bru, im talking about what seems to be one corner of the tent is pulled down from the top and your fan is there, Does it get closed up during the night time obviously?

@ORGANinc.I'm taking part in a grow off whaddya mean? My main fan is a extractor fan in reverse and them clones are moving out in a day or two, they busy with acclimatisation.

My first grow, I had a bud on the middle of the fan leaf and it was tight and heavy. Smoked lekker too

I use 2 per tote , mediums/soil stay moist at the core of it longer than the sides so I put mine length wise a 3rd from each side , that gives a almost even moist medium from my experience. I have used between 3-6 drippers per Blumat and they drip 10-15 cm from the sides . First dripper needs to be 8cm from Blumat's and the rest as you please , I try 15-20cm apart. I'm doing a run with the Blumat soaker house now , so far not to bad . Sent from my Hisense Infinity H50 using Tapatalk

@prom its a simple Bonsai technique and there are a bunch of ways to do it. most common is very early in the bonsais life, having a rock under the rots must be the plan from the get go. once your bonsai cutting has rooted, you choose a rock and you place your cutting ontop of the rock and cover it all with soil. then the roots grow over the rock and down into the meduim below. and then once a month or whatever, you wash a mm or 2 off the roots that have grown over the rock, and eventually you will have washed the medium off the rock , exposing the roots all draped over the rock you chose. depending on the type of plant, it could take quite a long time to accomplish. but it sure is visually worth it

nice view you have there @Pants

Day 5 Week 9 Update Got nothing feed but I set the PAR range on the Canape between 1000 to 1200 micromole, still below a 3000k 660nm 288 QB each Tarryn Sisa

July 6 - Day 53 From left to right: 2, 1, 3. They got some water today (explains the humidity spike on the chart). Clothes pegs have been removed - release the kraken! I must still remove the garden wire but they are on with a fair bit of wiggle room so there shouldn't be any risk of cutting into the branches. Can see the little milex heater on the potjie stand in the corner under the fan. Been running it during lights-on to keep the tent around 23-24°C during the "day". Eskom. 15% increase. Pain.

So #1 was moved as well. Looking a lot better, wow. They getting center spot under the QB75. #2 was the slowest, so holding her back. DNQ Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Day 56 ( Flower Day 5 ) Alright fellas sorry for my absence! Went away for the weekend to fish for some troots. Was actually meant to update on Friday but it totally slipped my mind while packing and all. My apologies.... and even though I wasn't competing in the first place I have disqualified myself... but am allowed to continue growing and post updates... So this soil is evidently still undercooked and even though the plants are recovering to some extent, I'm not seeing the burst of healthy growth I would usually see once the plants go into the super soil. As I say they are improving, but slowly and much behind the pace. Soil PH may not be the best at this point. Hopefully as we progress it will improve. It's at least manageable. I switched to 12/12 on Friday 2nd of July. They are still in the veg tent under the MH running 12/12 now. Tonight I'm going to clean the flower tent and transfer the plants into there. The pic below was taken on Thursday last week (day 51). I will post some updated pics tonight when lights are on. Updated pics to come tonight

No need to be such a sour dick about it. Will update now sorry, smoke a phat one and chill

Day 49 - Excuse the color as I had to tweak to remove the electro lines,but she is doing fantastic! Sent from my SM-A715F using Tapatalk

The two that was LST(topped and Fimmed) stand at 25cm and the one that I left as is at 35cm from soil. They just got plain rainwater and last night with the flip they got some flowering feed and Probiotic. Veg room temps fluctuate fast between 20-26 due to the element heater , so growth stunned a little but , each winters story. But it's ok , it is what it is. Sooo here we go guys

Two days into the flip schedule and a little bit more defoliation. Ladies are looking good. I'm doing lights off at night but keeping the heat matt on to keep the temp up in the tent. Also turning the fan off during nights. This pic is with the lights on. Rest are without to show color. All the ladies. T1 T2 T3

And then the pics from this morning. Sadly, on opening the tent this morning, I saw my one plant (front left) had fallen over off the wooden stand, and was squished against the side of the tent...so I righted it as much as I could. They are not as far as I wanted them, but work has just been stupidly busy again and my priorities are just not able to cater for the grow right now. But I continue as much as I can Back centre - is the one whose 2 main stems I have removed. Front left - as you can see is the one that fell

Bro, thank you for the shout out, your plants are looking beautiful and happy, and that makes me happy. Bless up brother

Yeah thanks prom. I forgot say it was lights out in the tent because i just sprayed neem lol Sent from my VOG-L09 using Tapatalk
