After germination they stayed in the "green house" for the first week, but now under 20/4 light with 2 18W LED strips. With the lights on, temperature and humidity were in good ranges afaik. I installed a webcam above the plants that takes a picture every 30 min. which enabled me to create a (somewhat shaky) timelapse video (see above). They moved to the their (final) 4L fabric pots today, which are filled with a layer of clay balls and "potting and herbal soil" mixed with 10% fresh worm humus. From now on, lights are switched to 18/6 and I plan to continue watering with 10% worm composter liquid.

On track for harvest! 7/20/21 - Looking good. Just a few more days left before we chop. The final ripening is going on. 7/21/21 - We are preparing the drying room. The buds look awesome! We have mason jars for curing after the dry. 7/22/21 - These plants stink so good! Tomorrow we cut both plants down! They will be drying in 70 degrees temp and 56% humidity. 7/23/21 - We pushed back harvest one day due to a medical emergency. No biggie, the plants will ripen one extra day. 7/24/21 - HARVEST DAY!! - We cut the plants, removed all fan leaves and hung in a temperature/humidity controlled room. More pics/videos/weight and more will be added when we are finished drying and we post our harvest results. The smell is of strong pine and a little sweet. We are very excited to try the smoke.

2025-09-18 Blac Russian, looking fresh and happy, she stands in 2 SCROGS and under a Roof, so the autumnwinds dont arm her, we had a couple of very windy and rainy days but she is safe. She developed more Buds, and the exisiting budsites are swelling very good- so i think around 3-4 more weeks xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Strain Information: Black Russian Early Version enetics & Background Black Russian Early Version results from crossing two legendary indicas with potent medicinal effects: White Russian and a splendid Black Domina mother. This is a selection of the famous "domina" phenotype - a real jewel well-known among Spain's best growers. Growing Characteristics Cultivation: Very easy to grow Growth pattern: Moderate stretch during early flowering phase Structure: Compact yet well-branched - one of the great indica yielders Flower production: Large amounts of very dense buds Unique trait: Very few leaves grow between buds Aroma & Flavor Profile Resin: Abundant, fruity-smelling with citrusy and earthy notes (likely from Afghan ancestry) Taste: Denser than the aroma, very sweet and citrusy Description: Like a fruit salad with lemon juice Effects & Medical Properties Type: Markedly indica effects Duration: Long-lasting and relaxing Onset: Very rapid - immediately noticeable when inhaled (smoked or vaporized) Medical use: Highly recommended for medicinal usage Tolerance: Low tolerance development - remains potent even with extended exclusive use Why This Strain? Perfect for outdoor competition due to its early finishing time, robust genetics, and reliable performance. The combination of ease of cultivation and exceptional medicinal properties makes this an ideal candidate for a successful outdoor grow. Genotype 20% Sativa - 80% Indica THC 24% Maturation(Interior) EARLY VERSION - 45 days Maturation(Exterior) early september Flavor Sweet fruit Production 500 g/m2 Indoor | +900 g/pl Outdoor Odor High Effect Narcotic Sex Feminized Lineage Black Russian x Ruderalis Cups 3º premio extracción BHO THC Valencia 1º indoor Cannarias Cannabis cup 2012 Copa Asociaciones 2º Categoria Professionale - Secret Cup - Napoli 2018 4º Categoria Exterior- Copa Cata @cogollosdeloeste - Argentina 2022 (@jhonny.jamrock) 2º Premio Categoria Exterior- Copa Cata Cultivadores Primavera - Argentina 2022 (@jhonny.jamrock

Week 11 end of week 5 flower I found more samples in the Nuites Cabinet and it was All Earth juice products so I Feel my moral conundrum has been solved. Although I did not use them in the beginning of the grow they are still samples I forgot about, I feel ok with this decision. They are looking and smelling strong so I feel why not let them finish big. I might have more seeds than I was expecting as I see a lot of buds with brown hairs and swollen Calex's but that's ok by me because this looks like it was worth saving. pics and movies to come just a brief update. Be safe everyone.

So, absolutely against the recommendation I received from a friend of mine who's been growing for 20+ years, I pruned/defoliated my plants up a bit this week. I decided to for a few reasons. - the plants were really dense with foliage, many leaves overlapping and pushing other leaves - most of the bud sites were shaded under several layers of leaves - the leaves pilling up would have been restricting airflow quite a lot, I want to prevent budrot or mold by increasing aeration - I wanted to control where the plants were growing, and focus their energy into the buds - with this being an outdoor grow late in the season with less sun I felt it was more important to expose the developing buds to the sun With all that said, I think my plants have responded extremely well to the pruning in the last few days. I've never pruned or defoliated before so this is going to serve as a test for me. I like doing new things and seeing what happens. No matter what, these plants look really good right now and I'm sure I'll get a decent harvest, I'm trying to push it from decent to fantastic. My PPM is a bit high, though none of the plants look like they're being hindered by it. I did a partial water change on 2 of the 3 (the one in the 3 gallon bucket and the one that looks more like and indica). The 3 gallon bucket plant was at a PPM of 5000ish so I made sure to get it more in line with the other two, and with the partial water change I got it to around 2000. The other plants are sitting at right about 3000. I will continue to monitor the plants and check PPM, if it doesn't go down next week I think I'll do another partial water change. I want to keep pumping in nutrient while preventing any burn or lockout. Trichomes are no observable on the two plants in larger buckets. The smaller bucket plant was the last to sprout, so it's about a week or two behind the others. This week has been pretty poor weather where I'm at. Lots of rain and clouds. I've kept the plants under cover but still in direct sunlight. This coming week is supposed to be clear sky again so I'll move them to capture the most light once the rain stops. I know defoliation is debatable, especially with outdoor grows, but I like to push boundaries. Here's a list of the things I've done with this grow: - kratky method hydroponics (other than a partial water change I have added no water since starting in buckets, no airstone, no pump) - Winter grow (shortest light period of the year here) - Topping (and it looks like one is more like FIMing, also one grew as if it were topped without my input) - Dense nutrient load (I've added more nutrient in this grow than any grow I have previously done. Mostly because I never achieved super large buds and I'm really aiming for that this time) - Water change (like an aquarium, I've never done a water change other than flush before, this week called for it with the high PPM which I think was residual from nutrient loading in veg so I wanted to make sure there's room for the flower nutes) - Defoliation/pruning (nothing too crazy or drastic, started this week and don't plan to trim again unless I see a need to)

Strain: Divine Seeds – Auto Candy Grow Type: Indoor Pot Size: 7 Gallon Medium: Peat Moss & Perlite Nutrient Line: Athena (Bloom) Week 5 Update She’s doing really well this week, showing healthy growth and strong flower development. Her buds are looking impressive for week two of flower stacking up nicely already. She’s handling her feedings perfectly with no signs of deficiencies or stress. Everything’s on track, and I’m hoping she continues to bulk up and fill out like this in the coming weeks. Feeding 1.7 L Athena Bloom nutrient mix (will raise gradually if needed). Indoor Climate Conditions Temperature: 18–23°C Humidity: 60–65% VPD: ~0.5–0.8 kPa See y’all next week!

she really started to grow faster as she went into flowering so I kept the canopy level and installing a electric cable around my tent (remember cheap as possible) and using the pipe cleaner

Hallo to You all my familly and usual visitors. Thank you for stopping by and all the likes and comments....You make my day! I gave the Blue Cheese a trim on 5th december and gave her four days of darkness, the chop was performed on december 9th I took a lot of photographs and videos commemorating these events for you to enjoy :) I think she came out quite decent especially considering that she had some monster/deformed leaves till the 4th week of veg. also looking back I should have moved her to the bigger place in that time...she would be far more symmetrical ;) It was a joy to work with Mars Hydro and their equipment in this grow. A big thanks to the Mars Hydro team for this opportunity, you truly provide first class grow kits and lamps. That's all i have for you till the drying & curing process is over I will update then. I want to thank you all for accompanying me in this journey, all the likes and comments...You growmies make me feel here at GD at home thank you 🙌👊😇

This week I noticed the plants really starting to take off. I’m adding more C02 tonight to speed things up, I plan to get 2 more harvests before the winter! Did a Rez change on the DWC BCP, I’ll snip clones off the other two strains during the next defoliant sessions. I’d like to get a 5x5 just for a few DWC or RDWC. How can I join come contests?
