I didn't do a great job at lollypopping, neither. I thought, I did .. but, they're getting all bushy again (it's been a bit more than a week, since I flipped them).

I tried 2 seeds of Acapulco Gold (Barney's Farm) of a 5-pack, I bought at an Austrian store (I guess, it's filled with duds). Then then I used the last remaining Blue Gelato 41 (Barney's Farm), which finally sprouted (label on pot is still not updated). Left and right plants are ~2 weeks older.

Nice .. But, I have no sensors, I could use that for :) The only program, I wrote for my plants, is just sort of a calculator: You give it a few dates (seeded, flipped to flower) and a few data (minimum/maximum days of life/flower .. depending on whether it's an auto or photo). Example output:

It's just a simple python script, to be run inside a terminal.

Either small clones or starting from seed. Back then, I had only 2 small lights, no tent, and one plant was already in flower, but I wanted to keep going, so I popped the next seed already in 12/12. Turned out to be a little xmas-tree

Critical Orange Punch .. My little xmas tree of 2024 :)

I'm having some of those blue-yellowish leaves on my Blue Gelato 41, too, recently ..

Hopefully, this time, I'll be able to harvest, before the bud rot eats it all .. descriptions in the alt-texts.

Preventatively cut off 2 tops, that may or may not be infected.
And also, everything, that was definitely infected.

1/2 Decided, that I needed some garlic ciabatta .. so, I baked one :) Ingredients, if anyone's interested (for twice as much as in the photo): 500g flour 1 package of yeast 350ml lukewarm water 1 pinch of sugar 5 tbsp olive oil I think, I added 4 cloves of garlic (finely diced).

cefk @cefk.bsky.social · 02/01/2026

This one is an example of leaves, that will never fully recover .. but, even they got a lot more green in them, than they did, before.

Critical Orange Punch, that has suffered most.

120

cefk @cefk.bsky.social · 02/01/2026

A color-change (like a yellowing leaf) doesn't necessarily do permanent damage .. but, the actually dead/brittle parts will stay dead.

120

cefk @cefk.bsky.social · 22/12/2025

I think, they're getting better :) And they drink like crazy .. gave them about 8 liters, yesterday .. Today, I've given them another 4 liters along with a little advanced silica, that'll help them heal, I hope. And I'll give them more water, later, because I can't water them, tomorrow).

Blue Gelato 41 (Barney's Farm) - That leaf, that's turning green(er) again.

Critical Orange Punch (Dutch Passion) - Nug shot .. also the leaves having a healthy green main vein, but some of the damage can't be undone.

The first 3 images are top-views .. the last image is a front-view from the plant in the middle (it contains the potassium-def leaf, that's getting green veins, again).

Critical Orange Punch (Dutch Passion)
The green parts look healthier, than before .. but, it's a lot of yellowing.

Blue Gelato 41 (Barney's Farm)
A bit more coffee stains, but the phosphorus deficiency leaf looks green-veined, again.

CBD Skunk Dreams (Sensi Seeds)
I'm not sure, if that's the genetics .. She's getting old, too.

The same Blue Gelato 41 plant, but in front view:
That's that potassium deficiency leaf .. the same one, as last time.
And below it another coffee stained leaf appeared (one of the few places, in which this happened).

cefk @cefk.bsky.social · 19/12/2025

The arrows in those images point to the coffee stains looking potassium deficiency (left image) .. the red inside of the leaf looks like a phosphorus deficiency (right image). Both are on the plant in the middle (Blue Gelato 41). The left one's yellowing seems beyond normal, to me.

Coffee stain looking spots. Afaik, that's a symptom of potassium deficiency.

This wasn't the only leaf, that had this .. I keep pulling those off .. this is just one, I photographed.

This is the phosphorus deficiency looking leaf.

One nug shot, per plant :) About day 40 of flower. #growmies

cefk @cefk.bsky.social · 17/12/2025

I've fed mine, today, too .. they really look like they have a deficiency (especially the tallest one .. the one on the left).

140

cefk @cefk.bsky.social · 12/12/2025

They seem to be bouncing back. I had to pull off a lot of yellow leaves off the left plant, but the new growth seems to be doing better.

Left to right:

They're all between day 35 and day 42 of flower (switched gradually - 1 hour less light, per day, until I hit 12/12).

cefk @cefk.bsky.social · 10/12/2025

Some closeups of the flowers .. they look really nice, when they get those red stripes :)

cefk @cefk.bsky.social · 10/12/2025

More yellowing .. and some brown spots keep appearing.

From the bud on the right, pointing towards the top left .. that leaf has some brown spots on it, that keep appearing mostly on the Blue Gelato 41.
The yellowing plant in the left is the Critical Orange Punch.

Another one of those brown spots (yellow leaf in the center of the image)

More brown spots (leaf at the center of the image).

That's how they look .. the left one had the first yellow leaf .. the one on the right seems to be starting, too.

#growmie #cannabiscommunity Left to right: Critical Orange Punch (Dutch Passion) Blue Gelato 41 (Barney's Farm) CBD Skunk Dreams (Sensi Seeds) All of them are at about 30th day of flower. (I flipped gradually .. 1 hour less per day until I hit 12/12, starting Nov 1st). Left one's a bit yellow ..

Does anyone know, what this could be?

Back of a cannabis leaf, that has strange spots on it .. marked them, this time.

Nice .. Mine has started to flower quite nicely, now. And I removed a lot of leaves, that were growing toward the center of the plant (causing bad airflow and thus high humidity in and around the center). I hope, I didn't stress them, too much (especially the right one lost a lot of leaves, yesterd)

The cities are as grey and stinky as everywhere, but if you go far enough, you get to see some nature. I was there Nov 1st .. there was a bench on the edge of a small forest. That's the view, when sitting on that bench.

Front view, when sitting on the bench:
Someone's farm-stable (I think) is in front and mountains, covered in trees, in the back. Trees are wearing their autumn colors.

View to the left:
Same farm-stable, as in the other photo, to the right.
Small village in the back .. all surrounded by mountains.
To the left, there's a tree with a branch hanging overhead.

cefk @cefk.bsky.social · 22/11/2025

Mine seem to have gotten back to health, too :) The left one is stretching a lot, compared to the other two .. I hope the ones on the right can catch up a bit .. at least the one on the very right.

My weapon of choice ;)

110

cefk @cefk.bsky.social · 19/11/2025

I think, they might have paused the stretch, because they were stressed. I'm guessing, though. Yesterday, they looked a lot better, though ..

cefk @cefk.bsky.social · 14/11/2025

4/4 That's the right plant's strangely twisted leafs. And 2 photos from after applying the sand ..

100

cefk @cefk.bsky.social · 14/11/2025

Strange white spots (discovered today on middle plant, too)

100

cefk @cefk.bsky.social · 14/11/2025

2/? Middle plant ..

100

cefk @cefk.bsky.social · 14/11/2025

1/? Ok .. Update Time :) The strange looking bits, that got me worried about the left plant (see photos).

cefk @cefk.bsky.social · 09/11/2025

But, what's it meant to do? Does it somehow kill the fungus gnat larvae in the soil? Or do you mean to use that as a physical barrier, too? As you can see in the image, I already have the volcanic rock chips in place (intended as physical barrier to prevent them from laying new eggs in the soil).

cefk @cefk.bsky.social · 30/10/2025

That's how it currently looks in my tent :)

110

cefk @cefk.bsky.social · 30/10/2025

I just took a photo to try and describe it :) In the center - from the left to the right - that's one "finger" of one leaf. There's an upper half and lower half of that finger .. separated by that "main vein", I was talking about.

cefk @cefk.bsky.social · 26/09/2025

Those are mine, atm :)

cefk @cefk.bsky.social · 15/06/2025

I used to have problems with high humidity and lost almost all of my last harvest. That dehumidifier is absolutely worth it :)

Afaik, this has already been debunked by the White House. www.boerse.de/indizes/Dax/...
