Refreshed a part of my room entry protocol.

Added a piece too.

Thought about getting a washable one mats too but when I watched a video of it being washed it seemed like huge pita.

Down to about 4 gal water a day.

Will probably do a Zerotol foliar in the next 7-10 days.

Fade is coming on pretty hard in the 3x3, thinking I will lightly ammend it with some Dr. Earth flower girl and 4-4-4 at 50:50 and some vermicompost before the next run.

This next storm system headed your way is a doozy. Knocked out our power for almost 24 hours. Tons of rain and very high(60mph) winds.
Better than the weather channel.

This shoulda posted yesterday but idk what happened...

Veg was going gangbusters under 24/0 so I switched it back to 19/5, but some of the males looked like they were wanting to go back into flower so I unplugged the timer and dimmed the light after giving them a defol today.

Looking at calender,
reading between the lines,,,

I am a firm believer in warm toes.
I believe cold soil/nights prolong finishing times
I don't like to see my soil temp below 60, even to the point where my beds are actively heated, and the air is passively heated.

Dry air heats up quick.
I imagine the specific heat capacity of a bed is much closer to that of water, than air.

Sure, I can flip the bulbs on and quickly right, by way light, the cool air from overnight.
Still that soil, yet to toil, flowers unable to roil.

At some point before take off, every plane rolls down the runway. Full Throttle, high RPM, good Torque,,,
If the plane does not defeat stall speed, it will never leave the ground.

I dont wanna wait until the bed warms up. When I flip on the lights, the party starts now.

sometimes I ramble
that's my two cents
?

I think 60 isn't a bad number for most people, my tolerance is a little lower, we're sitting at ~58. It is a bank, air temps can be ~50-55 without too much impact, so long as the room gets back to mid 70s during the day, but the core of the bed never changes more than half a degree. Microbes will suffer below 55 but that's part of the game.

The mulch layer is critical I think in maintaining bed temp. I think wood is one of the better materials for this, where rice hulls seem better suited for moisture retention.

At this point its important to match the water input with the transpiration that is happening. The bluesoak carrots pretty much do this automatically, though I have had to dial the 3x3 back a touch.

More lines.

The standard Jet A-1 fuel has a freezing point of -47°C and an energy density of 35 megajoules per litre.

...diesel fuel is denser and contains 39.6 MegaJoules/liter of energy compared to 33.7 MegaJoules/liter of gasoline.

Torque is good, I am more into locomotives ? than jet planes ✈️

I see purple in response to temperature as something less than desirable.

I have had/smoked good purple weed just can't help but think it'd be better if it were green.

Twinklehawk #2 lacks purple in the fade, while everyone else is putting on a show, which one is the one I am watching?

10 weeks was the plan from the get go, the plan was to have sexually mature plants at flip tho.

Zerotol ipm foliar this morning 20ml/gal sprayed everything, walls, ceiling, lights, fans and plants, veg too.

First use of the ryobi 18v sprayer. Overall satisfied with it, spray pattern is as good as any that cost 3x as much. The hose is stiff and a little long for using in the room and I miss the calm and quiet of a manual pump. I would have expected it to have an automatic shut off but I am happy it doesn't shoot out a supper hard burst when you initially push the trigger.

I need to do a full reset on the carrot in the 2x4, I think this is the first time since during the initial install at the start of this run.

29% clear 70% cloudy 1% amber

GCTC #2 Unfortunately I didn't take a cut of this one.

Twinklehawk #2

Trying to document the genetics of PC x HS I found a spelling discrepancy on Sundea vs. Sundae not quite sure what to call it but looks like @Genuity transposed the a and e on the Sundae Driver #10 cut, idk if it was on purpose tho so I am sticking with Sundae as I swear that's what the pack of seeds he sent had on it.

Primal Candy = Candyhole (Tony Green's Orange Grapefruit Rabbithole x New York Candy Orange bx1 R) x Primal Punch

Honey Sundae = Sundae driver#10 X Honeystomper

Honeystomper = (bright moments X honeybee f3 )

Bright moments (grape stomper x grape stomper og)

Honeybee f3 = (plushberry x purple kush/grape stomper)

Primal Candy x Honey Sundae

I wish I could stick my face in there. So excited for the smoke report on these.
I have been thinking about how I'm going to select and pair the PC x HS boys and girls. Definitely going to chuck the 2 dwarf plants at each other, but not sure if I want to include them in the "open" pollination I am planning. Thinking I will use 2 males or more if justified after seeing what they look like reversed. Pretty sure no. 3 and 11 will make the cut on the female side.

TTLT x 7 Hills chopped, need to sed up drying tent, Hashpile 2 will get chopped tomorrow. PC4 x HS no. 11 will probably get the axe as well.

Some of its leaves have been showing something best I can tell is fungal for the past week or so. 20230113_100239.jpg
I moved my soil thermostat to be sure I am not unduly unfair, this is the cold side of the room.

The plants with more green seem more resistant as has been my observation over the years. The prevuous Zerotol foliar put the breaks on it for a couple days. Amber is getting there, I am seeing at least some with each bud scoping so the window is open. Twinklehawk and GCTC 2 are a bit further off GCTC 1 is closer.

Need to improve airflow, how becomes the question.

? Gorgeous
Thank you.

Hashpile 2 and PC4 x HS no. 4 down
20230115_082923.jpg 20230115_082905.jpg
PC4 x HS no. 9 is all in with purple calyx,
20230115_080319.jpg
no. 4 is probably the most green besides the dwarf.
20230115_080236.jpg
The node stacking on it and the male pair is crazy, thick durable stems too, all undercanopy and still manage to be self supporting. I fully expect it would be purple too if it actually got any light.

First clear shot of no. 7 too
20230115_080134.jpg
Probably a tie with no. 3 for frostiest. No. 9 and 3 probably come down tomorrow, 7 and Twinklehawk 2 Tues the rest on Wed, then clean and reset. Woulda liked to take em another week or so but we'll see what they're worth and decide if/how many seeds I want to make and if I want to do do another sensi run with the cuts after running the males.
