Harvest ended up being a 14 day hang dry as the entire plant. Dry weight between both plants yielded 40 grams only. I did 2 runs of this. The genetics seemed very inconsistent. One plant was very small, and one plant was so large it was almost touching the light at the top of the tent. The bud structure was not great. They did make some pretty pictures though. The smoke is not bad, its smooth and has hints of fruit to it, almost like a mango or papaya. It also smells sweet. It could be used for daytime if you control it correctly. It doesn't hit you hard. Its mellow but lacks that sativa focus.

So one thing about this strain that was kind of a bummer was the smells were literally all over the place in a great way. Sour gummies worms from the keef, diesle/gas from the leaves, and lemon hard candy/carrots/dab carts from the buds but when smoked it, the floral taste was so rounded that the other smells never came thru except the purple one that had tight smaller buds, had a lemony taste still. (Remember had to cut early from braking). On the other hand, the way this plant grew had me in a state of personal amazement. I was actully super excited telling my friends that it got TOO BIG for the branches. Buds stacked perfectly on every plant. The topping and recover time went smooth. She shaped nicely right before flower. And back to my negative statement that I had..... the smells were INCREDIBLE!!! I recommend it to everyone soly for the smells.

I skipped a week as I was away from my plants, had to plant 2 of them into bigger pots when I got back. Growing so fast right now, only the one plant that's a bit behind in growing. Might be the night time temperatures or maybe not enough nitrogen. Not too sure. Leaving them on the same nutrient schedule until I flip the lights.

(At the end of the photographs there is a video .. if you look at them enlarged it does not appear on smartphones and tablets) All by handmade.. Welcome Ganja lovers ๐ŸŒ๐ŸŒŽ๐ŸŒ We are today at the conclusion of this exciting cultivation journal I hope you have already enjoyed the photos of these beautiful flowers ๐Ÿ™‚ In the end they speak better than me.. But anyway.. This was a very good experience KALINI ASIA is an amazing Kush strain ๐Ÿ‘Œ๐Ÿ‘Œ I have grown all five seeds that ZAMNESIA sent us, each with something different..some nutrients or the specific cultivation technique.. But in the end the story was the same Vigorous Resistant Great aroma Good trichome production And heavy buds production ๐Ÿ”๐Ÿ” I went far enough beyond the timing reported by the seed bank, it could probably have affected the heat wave in the last month ๐ŸŒก๏ธ๐ŸŒก๏ธ๐ŸŒก๏ธ Especially K # 5 performed more like a Sativa, even in the very fox-tailed shape of the buds. Personally I love them ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ”ฅ However, apart from K # 4, all the others showed flowers with that shape. By researching, I discovered that genetics from Asia tend to show flowers with these characteristics.. The effect is still purely Kush, and so is the flavor. But the inflorescence production is really powerful. The buds have grown almost entirely on each branch. Concerning the purple / dark pink colors.. K # โ€‹โ€‹1 and K # 3 did not show these shades, but as terpenes they were the same K # โ€‹โ€‹2 was the only one grown in an 11l pot practicing lst, exactly like K # 1-3, but where I used my Living soil.. Its colors ranged from rosy to purple, and it was a sight to behold as it slowly depleted all nutrients. To be honest it is the best and with the most delicious scents of all five ๐Ÿ™Œ To its detriment, however, it has a much lower production than its two sisters in 11l.. [ For lovers of numbers I will report some data later ] K# โ€‹โ€‹4 also presented colors tending to pink / purple, less marked than K # 2-5.. On its side it had a greater resin production ๐Ÿš€ But I think the (accidental) topping has slowed her down a bit ๐Ÿค”โœ‚๏ธ K # โ€‹โ€‹5 instead was the one with the darkest purple color of all.. But now it has turned more towards a brownish / purple color.. However, I repeat.. Slightly different look But flowers with the same fragrances and effects. As I reported above, this strain is very Kush, so it tends to be earthy and spicy with some citrus notes in the distance. Kush effect, sweet calm of the senses. Personally I find it a ganja to use regardless of the time of day or the various chores done .. Also good for sleeping : 1: Most users will find it more suitable for relaxing moments.. Anyway I generally use vaporizers , because I find them the top from all points of view.. And I generally vape between 180 ยฐ up to 200 ยฐ using mighty or ghost mv1 and sometimes dynavap m. Top flavor and effect ๐Ÿคฉ However, to better assess the quality of the flowers, he always carried out a smoke test Organic papers and filters and only weed, no tobacco or blunt.. Four weeks after the cut, I carried out a first pre-test for each single plant.. The weed was already burning very well and the ash was, and is, a nice light gray color.. This test was done precisely to evaluate drying. To properly evaluate the flavor, especially with varieties with Kush-style terpenes, I wait at least two months after cutting.. So I did another test for each one, and the taste was great ๐Ÿ‘Œ๐Ÿ‘Œ In the video you saw I instead decided to roll a nice two-gram joint, with a mix of all five flowers ๐Ÿ˜Ž๐Ÿ˜ Solo test ๐Ÿ›ธ All excellent : 1:: 1:: 1: I love Kush so I'm biased A really good variety that I can only recommend ! .......... ......... ....... ..... About the nutrients Leaving aside the one grown in the Living soil, all the others drew nutrients mainly from the fertilizer that ZAMNESIA sent us.. The MONSTER-MIX What to say.. Really a great product Extremely easy to use With a cocoa scent that makes you want to eat it once opened And plants really appreciate it ๐Ÿ”๐Ÿ‘Œ๐Ÿ’ฏ๐Ÿ”ฅ I have never checked the pH, as I do with my Living soil, and everything went top .. With one bag I managed to feed four of them almost entirely In addition to the MONSTER-MIX and my Living soil, I have added all mycorrhiza plants during transplantation. Also, from the fourth week of life onwards, I used some liquid organic stimulant. Below I report the exact quantities I used for each product (total calculation) For K # 1-2-3 I used, each for each one _Rootjuice (Biobizz) 4ml _Bioheaven (**) 7.5ml _Topmax (**) 13ml _Activera (**) 4ml _Activator (Biomagno) 4ml _Biomass (**) 0.5ml _Voodojuice (Advanced Nutrients) 6,5ml _Piranha (**) 6.5ml _Tarantula (**) 6,5ml _Rinhoskin (**) 15,5ml _Sensizym (**) 13ml _Molasses 23ml For K # 4-5 something less (total sum values, each) _Rootjuice (Biobizz) 3ml _Bioheaven (**) 7.5ml _Topmax (**) 6.25ml _Activera (**) 3ml _Activator (Biomagno) 2.25ml _Voodojuice (Advanced Nutrients) 2.25ml _Piranha (**) 2.25ml _Tarantula (**) 2.25ml _Rinhoskin (**) 6.75ml _Sensizym (**) 6ml _Molasses 10,5ml Regarding mycorrhias, I have used an Italian patented product for many years which is called Micosat F ๐Ÿ‘Œ๐Ÿ‘Œ๐Ÿ‘Œ I spread about 10g in contact with the roots On top of that, I just washed it down with normal water .......... ......... ....... ..... Always remaining in the field of numbers, for lovers of the sector I report below the various days of vegetative, flowering and respective quantities by weight of the flowers (weighed after drying, precise manicure and maturation of two months in a glass jar) K # โ€‹โ€‹1/2/3 _VEG STAGE: 6 weeks _BLOOM STAGE: 10 weeks K # โ€‹โ€‹4 _VEG STAGE: 5 weeks _BLOOM STAGE: 10 weeks K # โ€‹โ€‹5 _VEG STAGE: 4 weeks _BLOOM STAGE: 11.5 weeks Regarding the final production, I report the various weight systems below _K #1 52g _K #2 31g _K #3 55g _K #4 21g _K #5 41g As lighting I first used a 205w Optica2 led panel in the vegetative phase, but in addition to them there were also two other plants During the flowering phase I switched to using two Black-dog LED panels, each of 200w But even in this phase, the girls divided the light source together with another plant (CORAร‡รƒO BRASILEIRO diary...55g dry buds) and two more in the last week .. So , 400w for six plants ๐Ÿ’ก๐Ÿ’ก๐Ÿ’ก๐Ÿ’ก ร— ๐ŸŒฟ๐ŸŒฟ๐ŸŒฟ๐ŸŒฟ๐ŸŒฟ๐ŸŒณ Personally I am more than satisfied with the yield compared to the final quality. .......... ......... ....... ..... What to say more To be honest, this genetics literally surprised me I can only recommend it to everyone and, even if you don't find the purple phenotype, don't worry too much .. However, you will have a lady plant in your hands who will be able to give you many large and fragrant flowers .. Thanks to Grow Diaries and especially Zamnesia for this opportunity ๐Ÿ™ And thank you all for appreciating : 1:: 1:: 1: I am looking forward to other similar competitions.. Because personally, every day of these weeks has been a victory. Having the chance to grow cannabis is already the biggest reward ๐Ÿ’š Until next time.. Stay connected ๐Ÿ˜Ž Ciao โœŒ๏ธ ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡น . . . (The support sticks used, which were a little too long, were unfortunately the only ones I found during lockdown)๐Ÿ˜…

Easy to grow , no real problems . Was ready in 8 weeks but could have gone another at least . Next time I will flower for longer to see if there's much difference in that last week to ten days. You can find these beans at : Zamnesia.com 20%off code : ZAMMIGD2023

Hi ladies and gents, how time goes by. This week has been another good week for the girls. The weather has been perfect. My flowering Super Skunk is coming along well. Currently giving her 1L of water every other day. The other SS is still in Veg but Iโ€™d say sheโ€™ll start to flower this week. With the weather so hot at the moment she is on 750ml every other day. The Snow Ryder is flowering weโ€™ll but I noticed some mildew the other morning so I cleaned her up with diluted neam oil and looks like that did the trick. No cat issues this week, thankfully. Suggestions/advice always welcome.

Day 56 Flowering: This week has been a great week to understand the difference between strains. now close to finishing , it is clear to see how different the bids can look to each other dependant on lineages too. Six shooter has really surprised me with her rapid gains in bud girth. She has seemed to be a lot smaller and somehow stunted for most of the grow. This week has changed her completely, even down to her lower buds which also look a lot thicker than a few days ago. with approx 12 days to go, she could be one of the contenders for yield. She is also very frosty looking now with a nice sweet hit to her. Strawberry Pie is really starting to colour her buds up now and even though they are not joined up colas , each clump looks to be fairly dense and heavy. The buds under direct light at the top look less chunky than the lowers with her too which is a first for me. The light is penerrating lower than I thought due to the structure she has. There are some nice looking lowers just putting new pistils out so she may go a little longer than her 8 weeks stated. Mexican Airline is my secret favourite this run. Hwr bids are stunning looking spiky ,bursts of colour now and with a little longer to go , I wonder how she will look with even more ripening and fattening out. She is a very tall plant and i will train better for the next time I grow this strain. I have had to support a couple of the limbs now as they want to fall with the weight of the buds . I am on standby with more yoyo's if I need them. lol These have been a pleasure to grow as expected and I am now popping some Fast buds Cream cookies auto ( x2) to run next. I dont doubt they will be great to grow. be safe and free growmies.

Well CDG#4 had gotten so bushy it was messing up the netting and it was getting very hard to tuck due to all the growth. So I had planned on doing the 1st major defoliation a week after I flip but decided to do it early or risk something happening to my girl. So I did it Thursday night after Thanksgiving dinner. Damn did she protest the next few days. It's Sunday night and she has bounced back 200%. Just like they like to do. So flipping her to flower tonight. Nov 27th. Just replaced her water with the flower nutes. Also go my new cogs and parts in so I finished the light upgrade. It's pvc & alum. Angle so it's super ghetto. But it works and works awesome. 376 watts on high. Measured at the outlet. 8 citizen1048 cogs 3500 full spectrum. These have huge as heat fins. And at $18 each fin it's by far the most expensive part of the build. I've got 8 of them.

April 12, 2024 Day 57 This week we focus on Defoliation. The SCroG net has done it's job so far and may end up being removed next week. I'm not sure, but if I don't, then I won't be able to pull the basins out for cleaning. That will lead to buildup and clog up the wicks. I'm supposed to clean them today but I can't get them out until the net is removed. They should be fine for an extra week. I won't be doing one last defoliation, it will be done throughout this week every other day. These plants have a wonderful bud to leaf ratio, so I may only need two small trimming sessions. That should be it, then I'm leaving it alone for the rest of the grow. I may remove one here and there, but this canopy is open all the way to the bottom bud sites. So I really shouldn't have to trim much at all. Tropicana Cookies and Tropicana C are both identical. They even have the same branch reaching above the canopy. I had to tie down the one on Tropicana C. I will probably have to tie the other one down tomorrow. They won't go under the net, so they had to be tied to it. They are still about an inch higher than the rest of the canopy, but it's better than 4" above the canopy. They both needed to be refilled today. So they each got a full gallon with Recharge. I'll be changing the feeding regimen for their next watering. I'm switching out Big Bud for Overdrive and removing Sensizym. Tasty Terpenes and B-52 will stay for the rest of the grow until flush. I'll be cutting the nutrients in half for the last watering before flush as well. It should only need a few days to completely flush the nutrients from the soil. I'll be using Flawless Finish during flush, so that should make it faster. The light power was increased today. I brought it back up to 90% to get the DLI back to normal. Now it's 50 mol/mยฒ/d in the center, 45 mol/mยฒ/d surrounding the center and 42 mol/mยฒ/d along the walls. Great coverage and I get to keep the 24" light distance. I'm very happy with this so far. I may need to drop the power again after the week rounds out. We shall see. I may only need to raise the light an inch or two. Either way, I'm happy. The environment is finally getting back to normal from last week's wonky weather. Today, it's sitting at 76ยฐ with a humidity of 55%. It should drop down to around 52% by this afternoon. The DLI should end up being 1.42 kPa. Currently it's at 1.33 kPa. Not bad, but still not where it needs to be ideally. Grow System Environment: Temp: 75.5ยฐ RH: 57.1% VPD: 1.26 kPa (That will adjust back tomorrow) April 13, 2024 Nothing going on today. The one cola on Tropicana Cookies that got tied down is already pointing straight up again. Tropicana C looks great! Nice tops and just about ready to start on bud production. It looks like we have a couple 24" plants. The yield should be pretty good. The lighting stayed the same and I'm pretty sure it will remain the same for the next couple weeks. Then I will be dropping the intensity down for the last week and a half or so. The environment is now off again. The temp is way too low, but the humidity is fine. It should adjust again this afternoon. Updated Correction: I ended up cutting some leaves off after all. Not a ton but several. I looked at Tropicana Cookies from a side door and found clusters of big leaves. Those got cleaned up along with a few top leaves that were blocking bud sites. That should be it for the rest of the grow. I'll check back one more time and see what's needed. Grow System Environment: Temp: 73.5ยฐ RH: 52.0% VPD: 1.32 kPa April 14, 2024 Today is the final day of defoliation. I am planning on doing a proper defoliation this time. Nothing crazy, but the stretch has just finished up on both ladies and they need their final haircut. That being said, I think I'll remove the SCroG net for now. Then I can pull each plant out for inspection and defoliation. That way, I can clear out leaves that are sticking too far out and touching walls or other plants. I did do a minor defoliation this morning, but that was only what I could see in a crowded tent. So the rest will be done outside of the tent. Although, I'm not sure I'll have a lot to snip. That's a good thing. It's early afternoon and I have pulled the SCroG net out. I've also pulled both ladies and did a full defoliation. Well, about 15% leaf removal. As I said, this is the last defoliation for the rest of the grow. Tropicana Cookies looks great with the net off. There were tops that were being held down over other tops and some tops that were just bent. After removing the net, everything leveled out and the canopy spread is quite nice. The buds on this plant are insane. Internodal spacing is about 3/4" and it's all the way up each cola. When these ladies fatten up, they will have super long colas that should be thick with trichomes and hopefully no severe bending. Tropicana C got about the same 15% removed. She opened up quite a bit and there were definitely clusters I missed earlier on. Actually, quite a few on both plants. Anyway, this lady has great canopy penetration and air flow. What she also has is bud sites literally everywhere. Top to bottom. The colas are top to bottom, about 12" each. Maybe 15". I'll measure next week. I didn't move the light at all today. The DLI on the tallest tops is around 50 mol/mยฒ/d while the rest of the canopy is around 45 mol/mยฒ/d. No sense in changing anything at all. I may have to lift a couple other plants up that are sharing the tent. They are a bit shorter than these two. The environment looks good today. With a temp of 77ยฐ and the humidity around 53%, the VPD is very nice at 1.44 kPa. The average is looking great as well. However, I think I need to do something about the night temps. I believe they are still a bit too warm from the dehumidifier. I may have to increase the exhaust fan power at night to compensate for that. Grow System Environment: Temp: 75.5ยฐ RH: 52.6% VPD: 1.39 kPa April 15, 2024 Watering day! With the SCroG net down, I can pull the plants out. Which means I was able to clean out the basins and refill with fresh nutrients. I pulled the Big Bud and replaced it with 8 ml Overdrive. It may be too much. I really should have started at 4 ml. Live and learn I guess. We shall see how they react. I was also supposed to pull the Sensizym, but forgot that entirely. I'll have to pay more attention to what I'm doing. I'll take it out next watering. If the plants have any issues with the Overdrive, I'll just leave it out next watering. Simple. Both plants look fantastic. Tropicana Cookies ended up with one super tall top. It's fine though, I'm keeping it outside of the canopy. As much as I can anyway. Tropicana C looks great as well. She has multiple tops that are all about the same height, but the majority are shorter. Both plants have tons of bud sites. In the hundreds I'd say. Maybe 150 to 200. It seems like a lot, but they are everywhere on each plant. They are super happy and healthy. The lighting was left alone today. I may check it later today or tomorrow. The plants aren't quite reaching as much as I'd prefer for now. I may have too much light on them now. I'll drop the power back down to 80% if need be... Maybe. The environment is really good today. Staying strong at 75ยฐ and 50% humidity. The only thing I really need to work on is night temps. It's much too high between 71ยฐ and 73ยฐ. I'd much rather have it between 66ยฐ and 68ยฐ especially during this stage. I'll have to turn my air conditioner on soon. No problem. It is a bit too warm in my room at night for my liking as well. Update: I lifted the light an inch this afternoon. Now the plants have a slight reach going on. It also helped with leveling the DLI out better. Grow System Environment: Temp: 75.3ยฐ RH: 50.2% VPD: 1.45 kPa April 16, 2024 Not a lot going on today. Just some watering I think. That won't be until later this afternoon. Speaking of watering, I am happy to find both ladies at the exact same water level. It's great to see. They are drinking the gallon in just under 3 days now. I think the intake will increase in the next week or so. When the buds start to swell up. Tropicana Cookies has a few taller tops that are loaded with buds and stacks. Maybe 8" long each? But it doesn't stop there. I didn't lollipop these plants at all. They have buds all the way down to the base. The coolest part is, they are all roughly the same size. Top to bottom. I'm hoping my finishing touches bring me top quality buds throughout the plants. That would be an impressive yield. The lighting is perfect where it is. The taller tops are on the outside of the footprint and aren't getting as much direct light. It's keeping the DLI for them down to around 48 mol/mยฒ/d. Still a bit high, but I'm not too worried about it. The environment is great today. Not only is it 76ยฐ with the humidity at 51%, but I finally got the night temp down to 66ยฐ. It was a steady climb down, and the average was around 68ยฐ which is ideal. I wouldn't mind it being at 66ยฐ all night to help bring out the colors. We will see how things go as we get closer to harvest. Grow System Environment: Temp: 73.5ยฐ RH: 52.3% VPD: 1.32 kPa April 17, 2024 Not much to do today. Tropicana C needed some branch movement. A little crowded in some spots. It's all good now. But that's it. I didn't bother pulling Tropicana Cookies out today. She looks good and I'll pull all 4 plants out tomorrow. Mostly to comfortably refill the reservoirs for these ladies. They will definitely need a refill tomorrow morning. I haven't changed the light at all. I won't for the next 2 or so weeks. Then I'll drop the power down to 70% and for the final week will drop to 60%. That should see the DLI at around 38 mol/mยฒ/d and 35 mol/mยฒ/d respectively. The environment is looking fantastic. The night temp is finally down to 67ยฐ and the day temp has climbed up to about 76ยฐ. The humidity is staying strong at 51% with small dips into the high 40's. Grow System Environment: Temp: 74.0ยฐ RH: 50.0% VPD: 1.40 kPa April 18, 2024 Both ladies got water today. Tropicana C was completely dried out. Whoops. Tropicana Cookies was just at the bottom. Either way, both got refilled today. Not much going on otherwise. I pulled them out for inspection. Everything looks great! Both plants have buds everywhere top to bottom. The branches are a little thin for my liking and I may have to put the net up on their side. The light is staying where it is. The tallest tops on each plant are a bit too close to the light, but that will be adjusted in a week or so. Currently the rest of the canopy is happy at 45 mol/mยฒ/d. Looking great! The environment is a bit off today. It's kind of rainy and dreary here today, to the humidity is up higher than I'd like and the temp is a bit lower as well. It should fix this afternoon. The current temp is 75.8ยฐ with the humidity at 54.8%. The VPD is kind of low as well at 1.33 kPa. Grow System Environment: Temp: 74.2ยฐ RH: 53.3% VPD: 1.33 kPa
