Dutch Passion Bob's Dutch Passion Grow - Auto Trichome & Cream and Auto Mimosa Punch on BioTabs

As you could see in the time lapse above, that Boom Boom Spray is worth it's weight in gold...
Went to the tent to adjust the extraction fan, as humidity was still a tad high with it's +75% and this put the entire VPD out of whack...
Have a look where I ended up after about 15min's of adjusting... Do you see the little scratch mark, this is where I ended up last year...


Didn't have to adjust the lighting just yet...The temperature is still in a good range. Also running the light at half it's rated wattage reduces the running cost.


The values ended up in perfect conditions...


Now, while I was there. I also took some pictures as I know ya'll like them so much

Hey growmies

I've got a good cold for more then a week now, but this weekend was the worst. So, I didn't have the energy to do anything more then occasionally have a look at the time lapse footage. But today I was feeling better and after work, got to spend some time with my ladies...
Let's begin with our Mimosa Punch...She's looking beautiful and lush! Except for trimming the first node side shoots away I didn't do anything to this lady and look at how beautiful she's forming every side node. This is one happy plant ladies and gents!!

She's creating new sets of leaves every day now. The growth spurt these ladies are having is just amazing...Filling up the entire surface of the tent and steadily growing up. That Boom Boom Spray is an amazing product and speaks for itself!

Nope...No preflowers yet...This is another story with the Trichome & Cream, but we'll get there in a moment
Auto Mimosa Punch - Day 26


Whenever I open the tent a sweet smell is slapping me in the face and I try to find out which lady is responsible for this sweet treat every time. I think it's this Trichome & Cream. She sounds sweet doesn't she?
Auto Trichome & Cream - Day 26


A beautiful plant which is enjoying life inside my tent...No defects, signs of over/underfeeding for these ladies my friends. BioTabs is taking care of that

What do I see here...Her first female flowers...She's a ladyyyyy.....

Next up my Do-Si-Dos which hasn't got a worry in the world...Look at those leaves.
Auto Do-Si-Dos - Day 26


Nice internodal spacing and extending of the side shoots. Yup, this is going to be a nice and compact plant.

And last but not least, my very own Amnesia cross. She's the most compact of all four ladies inside the tent...

...But have a look at those thick branches...
Amnesia something something - Day 26


Oh yes. Also turned up the light ever so slightly over 50%... I'm going to follow up on this the coming days and see how the leaves will react, but for now I feel they can take a bit more. As the light is still reaching through the canopy and lighting up the soil no defoliation is necessary...


...and as you can see, humidity is in the right range for these plants. The temperature could be a tad higher and that's why I'm raising the output of the light.
Didn't had to water the plants since Thursday and the pots are still feeling heavy enough to go on for at least two to three days. So that would be (almost) one week on a full drench. The lazy stoner in me is laughing his ass off to the old chemical growing me, I tell ya!!


And let's end today's post with an extra-long time lapse. Duration = 71 hours, speed = 25fps. Enjoy

Bob

But I don't like the smell so don't use if it is not necessary

Guess that's why you only use it the first and second week in flower. Any further along will probably stink up the bud sites...
I've got another question for ya. Any idea how long it takes for the Mimosa Punch to show sex? We're only at day 28 now, I know.
But the Trichome & Cream is definitely showing sex. Have a look for yourselves

On another topic...After one week I watered the plants again. This time the entire 5L (water + 5gr Bactrex + 10ml Orgatrex) got divided over the four pots and the drainage went back into the pots until everything got absorbed by the medium.
I raised the pots an set them on two pan racks from Ikea. This raises them enough from the tray so the pots don't have to stand into their own water.


I did some light defoliation on all four ladies. Removing only the lower leaves which were touching the ground...

Because I watered the plants I did raise the extraction fan to the set-point from last year. Maybe I'll dial it back down in a couple of days, but for now it's necessary to lower the humidity.


And to compensate for the temperature loss I turned the output to about 60% and raised the light as high as the rope-a-majigs allowed to get some more distance between the light and the leaves.


The values are far from perfect, but it can't always be Christmas morning



Ok, next up I have a video tour from within my tent. I stole borrowed the idea from my buddy @St. Tom, so here goes...








And finally for all of you who were waiting...Todays time lapse. Duration = 44 hours, speed = 25fps. Enjoy






Hope you had fun with todays post. I know I did when I opened up the tent and got a whiff of that nice smelling lady in there

Bob
