week of 9/14-9/20
Day 14 - View of the Showcase Flower Room reloaded with 9 strains
Showcase Flower Room
The plants started Week 3 of flowering (days 14-21). The plants have grown tremendously and are filling in the canopy as well. Every strain in the room is flowering and the flowers are getting big quick!
During this time we are slowly increasing the light and CO2 levels in the room. As the plants grow taller the lights are lifted along with them. This week the lights were lifted 3 times to keep up with growth. The room was pruned early in the week and it already looks ready for another pruning
Testers were placed this week, one for each strain. The testers tell us how the plants are responding to their environment and irrigation schedule. We determine irrigation length and strength based on the results the testers provide. This week irrigation length increased almost daily and the plants are still enjoying a strong fertilizer solution as they are growing and flowering so vigorously.

The plants in this room are currently in Week 10 of flowering (days 63-70). We will begin harvesting the end of this week. A few strains need a little more time so they will be harvested early next week. Harvest involves cutting down the plant, removing fan leaves, and then hanging in the dry room for the appropriate amount of time. We also save some material to freeze for the Super Micron Bros. to do their magic making wonderful concentrates.
There is a nice variety of strains in this room, all with unique smells, colors, flavors, and flower shapes. We are excited for this harvest and hope you will be as well.

Mom and Veg Room
The moms that were pruned heavy last week have adjusted well and have started to grow again. We will let them grow for about another week or so and then prune them back again. We only need to let them grow big when we need cuttings from them for future rooms. We are a few weeks away from that being necessary.
All the clones for the next round of F0A have been planted in their first pots.They are growing well and everyday we increase the light intensity by small increments getting them ready for their final transplant and being put into flower.
That’s about it for this week. We have to go and get ready for Harvest. Thanks for reading and please let us know what you think.
One Love
