1 pot 2 plants, 15ltr “1pot” AutoPot system with “AirDome” for oxygen to root zone ![IMG_20261002_201428593](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/seedsman/original/2X/0/065821ae3f77b28b3528d7852c55117ae8811e76.jpeg) ![IMG_20261002_201509369](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/seedsman/original/2X/6/66baaa98afc135bf6aab4078b4231b384bac4ba3.jpeg) ![IMG_20261002_201438715](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/seedsman/original/2X/f/f50190c62875d1bc2eba5486a00eecffef3304bd.jpeg) **3rd week of flower** Before being placed on 12/12 the plants where topped, had clones taken and **then where placed into the flower tent after 6/7 weeks of vegetative growth**. I only recently applied the 3x3 trellis to spread out the canopy to help maximise my eventual yield Temps and humidity are great at the minute. Not working with an AC unit, i always get excited to grow and harvest during winter months. Currently **73-76f** and **37%rH** inside the tent Using **SHOGUN** Nutrients along with **HESI** boost **Per 1 litre - 2.5 ml coco A+B, 1ml Silicon, 2ml Zenzym and 1 ml boost** My bar light is a **360w** with lower settings, **currently running it at the 140w setting** **4 inch extraction, 12ltr MarsHydro dehumidifier and 2 oscillating fans** ---

In 1/2 weeks time il be shifting the nutrients to the SHOGUN “Dragon Force” to help with senescence, then feeding with 6.0pH plain water for the last week The only product from INDICA im using is their “Hindu Kush” which is a biostimulant containing kelp, humic and fulvic acids - this helps benefit microbes to produce sugars during the flowering phase. I use cold pressed sea kelp in conjunction to help with this. Enzymes will also speed up this process, if i was in just coco and perlite i dont think this would provide much to nutrition but i use a **40% Coco/40% Perlite/20% Compost** mix for my AutoPots **Per litre - 2ml Coco A+b, 1ml Silicon, 2ml Zenzym, 1ml HESI BOOST, 0.5ml PK Warrior, 1ml INDICA Hindu Kush, 1ml Kelp extract** Smells are great, the Shishka Lemonade (front of the tent) has truely a “ **lemonade** ” profile, smells like cloudy lemonade! Where as the SK x GS at the back smells like a complex spicy + soft grape chewy candy, amazing 2nd picture is the SK x GS, 3rd is the SL 💖✌💚 ---

I should have already stated in the diary that the plants had the majourity of their lower nodes cleaned out but il most likely clean a few more up soon depending on how the developing buds look I will also be taking off a few fan leaves off the top of the canopy that are shielding flowers to give the flowers shaded by them some more light Ive recently been watching a Youtube creator thats super in-depth on cannabis knowledge and science. If i remember correctly, on a video about defoliating he stated that at some point the big fan leaves essentially take more energy than they provide to the plant, so can be stripped. Along with this he explained various reasons not too defoliate also! Heres a link to the vid!

Both Camps Are Wrong (Nobody Tested Either)") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Igag_lZUKDM) This guy is super straight to the point with science and whenever he drops a video i watch! 💖✌💚
