Yooo Falcon looking great in there bro! Real good flower production on those girls, they are filling out quickly and pushing new pistils non stop. Looks like trichome production has kicked in too, they're getting covered in frost
Are you feeding any CalMag?

Yeah Irie, the dwc I have been giving 1ml/ltr of gh calimagic, each time I make a new soup.

Cheers mate, I am very happy how it is all going.

Day 87
day 37 of 12/12
Got up early today (Saturday) before lights out to get some pics. Topped up dwc with water and currently at 1190ppm(700 sc) temp 65 & ph 6.1. RH is 52% and air temp 22. Currently 1000ppfd at the canopy.
Flowers are shooting heaps of pistils and are smelling great.
Wondering if I should prune the bigger fan leaves of just keep tucking them daily?

 

[DonkeyDick]

Gorgeous!
Yeah man let that light get as deep as it needs to.

Wouldnt hurt to lose some above to get it in to the lower decent buds. bottom fans can be tucked , they will still keep busy down there with minimal light. Also get aor round better to avoid the dreaded mould getting deep in to the buds before you see it. looking beautiful

Yeah for sure, not too many at a time over a couple days to get some light deeper down there

Ok, So after a bit of research on the subject of adding UVB as a stressor , today I got the grinder out and cut my light frame to fit the new addition, a Arcadia ProT5 Kit -39watt 6% UVB 34" Light. The light I am using lacks in the UVB department so I thought I would give it a try.
They say that it is good to help boost trichome production & possibly increases thc & cbd. There has also been researched that it is very effective in controlling powdery mildew by reducing spore germination and mycelial growth. Also, UVB repels pests, as deep UV highly repulses or kills common pests that affect plants.
From my research and advice from a successful grower, this is what was recommended for my 3x3.
I recommend using either a 39w 3ft bulb or two 24w 2 footers. 14% bulbs 2-4h, 10-12% bulbs 3-6h and the 6% bulbs can run all day long.(same heights with the LED's)
The length of the UVB treatments also depends on the strains used. It's different from strain to strain. First signs of UVB stress look similar to heat stress so keep an eye on the upper fan leaves and when you see curled up leaf margins or twisted leaves reduce the amount of time a little until the issues disappear.
Reptile bulbs are pretty easy to use cuz they don't stress the plants like other UVB bulbs.(Agromax pure UV's for instance) For UVB beginners they are perfect cuz they can not damage adult plants. Lower % bulbs need only more time but the quality improving effect is almost the same.
I will introduce the light slowly at the start then ramp it up to the same time that the qb's are on for if the plant shows no sign of heat stress.

Day 90
day 40 since flipping
Other than the new addition everything is just cruising along. It still looks like the organic plant is going to beat the dwc to the harvesting scissors.

[irie lion]

Beautiful buds Falcon, they’re going to be big!

Her buds are staking on the trichomes & prob 60-70% red hairs and rock hard. Her leaves look to be starting to fade as well.
