Another monster Grim!
Hi Scally
Thanks for the comment.
Hopefully she will produce well.
Love it Grim that's what i call thinking outside the box…well inside really…inspired, using the inside frame of the tent and that is one big ass plant, i'm defo keeping an eye on this beast.
Hi Hazy
Thanks for coming over dude.
Its great to see you back around again.
 
Amazing grow so far Grim :)

I was already thinking the setup was intense - and then you brought out that diffuser !!!

I suspect that rate of flow is way more than you need for that volume of water, but i can't find any information on how to calculate the precise level to keep your water at whatever percentage.

If you search dissolved oxygen on ebay there are meters for 120 squids, and if you like tinkering, you can buy the sensor chip for 47 quid.

She's a monster, loving the LST and net :)


All the best,

steely

Thanks for the information steely and the kind words.
Yeah i know for a fact that i was over doing it with the amount of pressure coming from 80lpm pump.
As when i grew out he HBSS her feeder roots were getting blasted apart.
I think optimum flow rate for each bucket is 15-20lpm.
Il check that out stuff out and thanks.
By the way Its not a net Steely, just some thread.

oh man, grim has activated BEAST MODE! keep kickin ass mr. reefer!
Hi bolio
Thanks for all the rep and the comment man.

Week: 10 - Day: 68
All along the leaf blades on this Auto Euphoria are now beginning to fill in with a lovely dark colour.
Some leaves are a little lighter due to them growing into the LED so fast and vigorously.

It was observed that the tallest part of the plant had a rust like spot on the very top leaf which is a calcium deficiency.
This was due to the LED being so close to the highest part of the plant.

Leaf clawing has been sorted by correcting the amount of Nitrogen in the base nutrients.
Some clawing still exist on the older growth but new growth is perfectly fine which means an over all happy and healthy plant.

Almost ten weeks into this grow and finally vertical growth has slowly but surely come to a stop.
Yet nothing is stopping this plant from its rigorous and vigorous side growth.

Horizontal growth is still growing out at a fast pace as this mature plant is now coming in at a Height of 112cm and spread of 120cm. She has almost grown over 30cm in as little as over a week.

Side stems are starting to fill in and toughen up but we will have to wait see if she will need some extra support when in full flower. Hopefully all growth will have stopped by sometime next week.

The flowers are coming a long nicely on this specimen as the pistils are now fully developed with one or two turning amber.

Some slight formation of budding is now underway and some of the sweet leaves are covered in THC already.

The Trichomes on the small flowers were checked today using a jewelers loupe at 60x.
Not surprisingly all the Trichomes are still clear and just beginning to form in clusters.

Next week it will be time to add some Pk 13/14 to give the plant a vital boost to the flowering production.

It really is amazing what some Low Stress Training can do to the lower side stems of the plant.
This massive bulge shows quite clearly that LST is very beneficial as it also helps deliver more nutrients to the plant.

This stalk is almost 3 times the size of my big thumb.

Well, this is the monster :bow: You will surely need lots of these yo-yos here in late flower! :drool: My imagination just started to play :eyebrows:

Hi Marimar
Yeah i think she will need a good bit of support but maybe the silicon nutrient additive might help with this a little.
Oh i dont know if want to know what your imagination is up to, your dirty minded gardener. :)

Wowza :drool:, amazing growing bro. Can't wait to see the next few weeks.
I really appreciate that Dazed, thank you.
 
Wow! This one is really taking you to a long haul! It seems it could easily take some 4 weeks still eh? Everything is looking just super. Interesting how you are using both Bud Factor X and Canna Boost. You going to give her some PK soon?

Hi MedGrower
It seems with my new system it takes quite a while for the main taproot to reach the bottom of my 55L bin.
In turn it takes much longer for the strain to autoflower and usually the tap root meeting the end of the pot is the trigger.
I use Bud Factor X a long with CANNA boost as they are not the same chemicals at all and they work very differently.
Bud Factor X is pretty much the poop of insects that shocks the plant by making it think its getting attacked making the plant produce more resin.
CANNA Boost increases the sugar production of the plant which makes its immune system work quicker. As well as making the buds tastes better. It also quickens flowering time and acts as bud weight gainer. Its pretty much A.N. Over-drive, big-bud, bud-candy, bud-ignitor and possibly Nirvana all in one bottle.
Yeah dude Pk 13/14 will be given in the next feed which is Saturday or Sunday.
Thanks for stopping by dude.
