at the start of the week i was dealimg with bugs.. i gor rid of them with tje sesame and cinnamon.. cinnamon WILL burn your leaves if you leave too much on; they turn black and die... that being said im a sadist, so i then gave them a drink of stewed cucumber skins... they havent died.. ps.. forgot i gave them a distilled water feed at 2.3 early on in the week.. thought it wasn't happy. shall revert to 2 after a late week half strength 1/4 top 3/4 bottom feed at a slightly higher ph for the root dem Buds started to get legit this week..starting to get a frosty look now but decided to trim some of the shoddy bud sites regardless of being 20 days into flowering.. im away for a week. hopefully the setup will cope.. lights set to allow for movement.. fans will be on minimal.. and removed all other bug attracting tings. its been fun

This week was a very cold week. 13 to 18 degrees during the day and at night like 10 to 13 degrees. Therefore the buds didn't swell properly. Luckly one Critical Kush is still swelling but the other one seems to have slowed down. It's oke, i knew this would happen and the kushes might not finish in time. Might harvest my Shamans at the end of the month. The kushes I will keep until half/end oktober. Since this is only a outside fungrow, I'm not making any effort to heat up the climate by putting heaters arround the plants. Critical Kushes are in their 3th week of flowering. Somehow GD minimalize the videos after putting 10pictures on the diary, Just click on the next picture and click on the right arrow to go to the videos. Have fun looking arround :)

NOTE: other harvest pics will be in the week before. I can't upload everything into this week so I picked a few but I want to save space for dry bud pictures as well. If you wish to see more harvest pictures. Go to the week previous and look at the end. Chopped at day 63 with about 15% amber on the top buds and then only cloudy on the mids and lower

8/10 Hurried morning. Today was water day and the hose fucked up. Dad got it working while I filled half the jugs needed with water and the requisite amount of plant doctor. I gave the preventative dose (which is 1/2 tsp per gallon but I upped it closer to 1 tsp per gallon) on the plants that have received the three full treatments, the 10th planet in the middle and the chemdog. The rest received their last full dose. I had watered the NATURAL mk ultra and other tenth planet yesterday so I'm waiting until tomorrow when the need water to give them their treatment. Other than the 10th planet I'm worried things are going pretty good. Tjat's probably tine too. I certainly wouldnt have even noticed it a few years ago. I only bought like half the amount of soil as last year and really tried keeping costs down. These aren't the biggest plants I've grown but I'm grateful for what I have. I'm working hard to get the most out of them I can. I'm planning to give it a few days and then feed later in the week. EDIT: I THINK I got my grow question deleted. Finally. It's strange that I didn't get ONE outdoor growers response. Doesn't matter. I figured out the best course of action. I'm lucky. Or maybe I just work hard. I defoliate twice a day. I have some pruning to do on the interior of a COUPLE plants. I've cleaned them up pretty good this year. No signs of ANY wpm which is great but suprisinging considering the rh and the rolling fog most mornings.

Tried this strain from a dispensary one time, was a very enjoyable daytime strain that I look forward to smoking again, will look to take clones to at some point during veg Durban Poison—The Legend Unmasked The name and origin of this invigorating strain lie in Durban, a coastal city in South Africa. The following table breaks down Durban Poison’s basic properties. Strain: Sativa. Aroma: Piney, Sweet, Citrusy. Effect: Energizing, Uplifting, Focusing. Typical THC Content 18%–20% Whether you need to tackle a large project, boost your mood, or channel your inner adventurer, Durban Poison is the way to go. It offers a powerful stimulating high with light relaxation to clear your mind. It won’t make you drowsy or sedated, so it’s perfect for daytime use. You should avoid it in the evenings unless you plan on pulling an all-nighter. Durban Poison has a moderate amount of THC but enough to color your day in vibrant colors. Still, the strain’s cannabinoids are only one piece of this lively puzzle. If you want Durban Poison to shine in its full glory, you should leverage its numerous and potent terpenes. Take note "peak terpene" is roughly 2 weeks prior to "peak THC" which we use as a guideline for traditional harvest. Terpenes in Durban Poison Each Cannabis strain—and every other plant—produces aromatic hydrocarbons that give it a distinct aroma and flavor profile. Terpenes can’t get you high, but Cannabis-derived ones help cannabinoids (THC and CBD) penetrate the blood-brain barrier more easily so they can bind to your endocannabinoid receptors (primarily CB1). The interplay between the two compounds is called the entourage effect, and it causes a stronger, more accentuated buzz than cannabinoids can induce alone. Only a tiny portion of all Cannabis terpenes have been researched, but the results are fascinating. Each terpene enriches your experience differently, and Durban Poison has an eclectic mix of these mighty compounds. Terpinolene Durban Poison is one of the few strains where terpinolene is a dominant terpene. Cannabis typically produces it in lower quantities, so it usually plays a supporting role. Herbaceous and floral terpinolene offers relaxation and clarity, so it’s partially responsible for the strain’s serene nature. Myrcene Myrcene has always been synonymous with sedation and sleepiness, so finding it in such an invigorating strain might seem strange. It makes more sense when you know that these effects occur if the terpene makes for over 0.5% of the plant’s total weight. This isn’t the case with Durban Poison, so myrcene is tamer than in other strains, adding subtle stress-relief properties. Pinene Alpha and beta-pinene are among the main terpenes in Cannabis, the former being more common. Besides giving Durban Poison refreshing undertones, pinene isomers offer focus and mental clarity, which is what the strain is all about. Limonene Omnipresent in the citrus family, limonene gives plants a sweet-citrusy aroma. When you take a whiff of Durban Poison, you can feel its notes underneath the dominant pine scent. As for effects, limonene plays an antagonist to myrcene and is the embodiment of sativa strains. It increases your energy and lifts your spirits to pump you up for the day. Valencene Limonene’s lesser-known sibling, valencene was initially discovered in Valencia oranges. It’s sweeter than limonene and more representative of Durban Poison’s overall aroma. Valencene also has energizing cerebral effects, so its role is essential to the strain. Ocimene This is another secondary terpene that most strains—including Durban Poison—don’t have in abundance. Still, ocimene can be a potent stimulant, so its scarcity doesn’t make it any less important. New garden inspired by MiyaguiOkPolilla TORUS What Is The Heart’s Toroidal Field? The heart is the most powerful source of electromagnetic energy in the human body and the magnetic fields produced by the heart have been shown to be involved in energetic communication (also referred to as cardioelectromagnetic communication). Research done at HeartMath Institute (HMI) suggests that the heart’s electrical field is approximately 60 times greater in amplitude than the electrical activity created in the brain and is an important carrier of information. More and more studies are finding that the heart may be as complex as the brain is- the heart actually sends more communication to the brain than the brain sends information to the heart! Our thoughts and emotions affect the heart’s magnetic field, which energetically affects those in our environment, whether we are conscious of it or not. The heart has approximately 40,000 neurons and has the ability to process, learn and remember. It has its own emotions and in the field of neuro-cardiology, researchers are learning more about the “intuitive” nature of the heart and how we can apply this information to the relationships we have with ourselves and with others all around us. From the inside, your heart emanates an extremely powerful toroidal energetic field and it has been scientifically measured to go out as far as 5 miles from your heart. This magnetic field is involved in energetic communication, a direct extension from your heart to everyone and everything. In my practice, I like to reference this field as a visual to depict and take in how we are all connected and one and also, individually, whole and complete. I find that once this connection is made, we can easily see how we matter and our choices count and how choosing to live in alignment with our selves can create a robust state of health and expansion- making the fundamentals more impactful, as we move into new moments knowing that we can intentionally empower our ecosystems, with the healing energies of presence-courage-appreciation-compassion, love, etc. which extends from us, by way of our heart, to the world and to each other. From the inside, your heart emanates an extremely powerful toroidal energetic field and it has been scientifically measured to go out as far as 5 miles from your heart. The heart’s magnetic field is the strongest rhythmic field produced by the human body. From HMI’s findings, research has shown that the timing between pulses of the heart’s magnetic field is modulated by different emotional states- these studies have also shown that the magnetic signals generated by the heart have the capacity to affect individuals around us. It is also important to note that the heart is not that only source that can emit this type of electromagnetic field- every atom emits the same torus field: people, trees, the earth, the sun, the universe! We can apply this knowledge and use it as an opportunity to go within, connect, quiet the mind, regulate the brain and tap into our heart’s center. What Does A State Of Coherence Look Like? According to the HMI Research Director Dr. Rollin McCraty, “Coherence is the state when the heart, mind and emotions are in energetic alignment and cooperation. It is a state that builds resilience.” When parasympathetic and sympathetic systems are out of sync because one is filled with emotions such as anger, anxiety or frustration, this produces an erratic rhythm or what can be referred to as an incoherent state. Positive emotions such as compassion and love generate a harmonious pattern in our heart’s rhythm, leading to coherence and greater emotional regulation. When these harmonious interactions exist among our bodies’ systems, this is referred to as physiological coherence. As this increases, so does the brain’s alpha activity, which in turn supports us. When we allow our conscious awareness to be in our heart center, we can begin to shift our perspective from what is to what can be and realize what is actually possible. When your torus field is healthy and spinning in all directions with no obstruction, this generate an infinite amount of energy, vitality and life force- creating inner balance and raising our vibration. Your torus field can also act as a form of energetic protection- operating as a “force field” that can shield and dispel any negativity. A simple visualization exercise can help you become more aware of your torus energy field. Imagine drawing energy upward from the ground (the Earth) through your feet down a central column. Imagine this bright light going up your entire center from your feet and out through the crown of your head. Then, imagine something like a water fountain where this light is pouring out of the crown of your head and all around you, going back down to the Earth and then up again through your feet again. Imagine this upward energy for a couple of minutes or until you feel comfortable. Do you see, sense or feel the energy pouring out around you? Let Your Heartbeat Be Your Reminder As we move forward each day, remember that you can always take a moment to place your hands over your heart to recenter, reassure and empower yourself. Here, you can feel your heartbeat, open up and shift accordingly. This is a new era, where we can write and live a collective, new story- much like a portal in time, where light can be blinding, healing, eye opening, and freeing all at once- and the earth seems to be rearranging itself, as we continue to awaken and reorient- called to remember who, what and where we truly are. Rediscovering the power that has been within, not outside of, ourselves all along. The idea that power, or even freedom, lies outside of the self is just an illusion that we, as a collective, have made into our reality. Just. Opt. Out.

Day 31 - 38 (Day 32) I’m going to lower the humidity in the room to 55-60. Still no bananas but I’m still quite worried about #3 fully popping and ruining my whole crop. Since there is a good chance it’s going to herm, I’m going to give it with a small feeding today and watch it like a hawk this week. I think the boost actually made a decent difference in #5 from last week. I’m seeing slightly fatter main colas but that could just be from less topping/smaller plant or less nitrogen. I’ve decided to push my luck and give a boost to each plant. These things just aren’t filling out like they should. They look like they are on day 23 not 33. I’m going to top dress 3 tablespoons of 1-4-2 Destiny launch and later tonight I’m going to water in a low strength feeding of 0-0-15 kelp extract. I’m going to give a final heaping tablespoon of nature’s pride bloom to #5 so it can stretch to the end. I’m also going to lower the lights by a few inches. The tallest cola is now about 13 inches away and the rest of the canopy is at about 18–24. If I see signs of light stress I’ll raise it back up but I’m sure it could use the extra light on the lowers. (Day 33) I’ve been reading that bigger plants just take longer to mature and that’s probably why my plant hasn’t fully filled out or is about a week behind. I still could have done a better job defoliating some of the smaller larf branches on the bottom which just robs the good branches of energy. The more I think about it, the more I think I did a very poor job of defoliating the middle canopy. I’m still seeing lots of larf and small buds on the inside not getting much light. I’m still really worried about herms after finding that branch so I don’t want to stress them anymore. Removing suckers now is pointless. I missed my window of opportunity and now I have to deal with it. I’m going to slide an old DVD player underneath #6 to bring it up to canopy level. It’s lower buds are definitely not getting enough light. (Day 34) Ever since lowering the light, the canopy has gotten a few degrees warmer. I’ve noticed the buds don’t feel as sticky on top compared to the lower tucked branches that feel almost wet with resin. Outdoor weed grown in my climate will never reach the temperature where it degrades resin luckily. (Day 36) The buds are definitely swelling but not to the degree I want. Call me picky but I prefer my nugs as chunky as possible. I’m seeing lots of pistils but not much nug matter. Ive heard too many pistils can be caused by the overuse of alfalfa, kelp and seaweed extracts because of the natural PGR’s in them. I’m definitely going to reduce the amount of that stuff I use next round. I hope I’m just wrong and this tent is going to really fatten up this week but I have my doubts. (Day 37) A purple fade is starting on the underside of every plant except the bush who still is super dark green still. Last watering I got a nice amount of runoff so I’m just going to leave her until the end. I’m seeing a bit of yellowing on #5. I’m going to give it one final full strength feeding plus some rock dust and oyster shell tomorrow and that’s a wrap for nutrients. I might as well hit everything else with a final low strength 0-0-15 too. (Day 38) I’m amazed at how much this stuff smells compared to my last round. It smells very earthy and floral with a hint of pine. Definitely not that gassy smelling pine but more of a sweet pine.

Day 155 - Watering 7l solution rain water with 4 mL Top-Max and 4 mL Bio-Bloom, 1mL of calmag Solution ph 6.3, ppm 550, runoff ppm 1060, ph 6.3 looking at the trichs I think around 2 weeks until harvest. Day 158 - Watering 7l solution rain water with 3 mL Top-Max and 2 mL Bio-Bloom, 0.5mL of calmag Solution ph 6.6, ppm 350 runoff ppm 1100, ph 6.4 Looking at runoff it's good I reduced nutrients. I will start flushing from next watering. Thinking of maybe giving blackstrap molasses for last few waterings. Will she how is ppm after next straight rainwater watering and decide. Smells very strong right now and trich are still mostly clear with around 25% cloudy going towards 50%. Day 161 - Watering 7l solution rain water 7.5 ph, 30 ppm Water ph 7.5, ppm 30 runoff ppm 1040, ph 6.5

week 9 is officially done, site calls for 8-9 weeks of flowering time, sadly the one on the right got revegged and has 2-3 more weeks to go. the one on the left however is full of trichomes,almost quartz like, mostly cloudy with a bit of amber, i’m thinking about chopping her this weekend, smell is like if you combined mothballs and sherbet (sounds weird but smells just like it) this grow as been one of my easiest grows so far, all the problems i’ve had with it has mostly been user error (i.e dog stepping on timer and day temps reaching 87)
