Water 2 times this week, 4L each time (10 Gallon pot). The second watering was a worm casting tea. (Worm casting, Kelp meal, Alfalfa meal, molasses and Miicrobial Mass) all sat in a 5 Gallon for about 30 hours and I used a aquarium bubbler to aerate the mixture. I did some good LST on her that I maintained all week. She is doing very very well. She is the shining star in the tent. Temperature was getting too hot in the tent so I turned on my air intake. RH is now around 45%. Light intensity got raise at 80%. Still at 30" from plants. Top dressed mid-week with 8 Tbsp of 2-8-4 and 2 Tbsp of 4-4-4 in a 10 Gallon fabric pots, so 1 Tbsp per Gallon. Also add 1/5 worm casting from the tea on top with the nutes.

Water 3 times - Average PH6.5 - 4L each time Same temperature and RH than last week 21/23C and 45% I moved the light from 30" to 26" and raised the intensity to 100% (SF-4000) I installed a net mid-weed. Hole size 3.5" On the last day of the week, I did a huge defoliation and removed all lower buds sites. Not sure if this week is consider flower but there is white pistil all over.

Water 3 times 2L/4L/4L, PH'd at 6.4/7.5/6.6. Gave her a Worm Casting Tea mid-week (Worm casting, Alfalfa Meal, Kelp Meal, Miicrobial Mass, Molasses) I did a little bit of LST and some defoliation. Removed lower buds and branches. I broke two top will repositioning the branches thru the net and an other top was bent 90 degrees but you could not tell because she is so huge. She seem very healthy and she also drink a lot. I will probably stop playing with her since she is big enough and I don't want to accidentally brake more tops. However she will need constant defoliation. I keep my light at 26'' from the top of the canopy, the light is at 100% intensity.

Good week, first time my plants are not turning yellow at flower stage so that is good. Water 4 times 4L/3L/4L/2L all around PH 6.5. I could have wait to water tomorrow instead of 2L today. Top dressed at the beginning of the week with 1Tbps/G of 2-8-4 (Gaia Green Power Bloom) also add 1Tsp of Cal-Mag/G of water just precautionary during one watering. Last two days of the week I did some defoliation on the lower and middle part of the plant. I also removed a few small branches that won't produce big nugs. Light is still maintained at 26" at Max intensity.

Watered 3 times, 4L/3L/3L at around 6.5 Ph. She is the star of the tent in her 10 Gallon pot. She is doing very well. Still at the pompom stage but they get bigger. Smell start to be noticeable. I did two big defoliation (about 4 hand-full) on her and you would barely notice. Mostly lower leaves and middle or the plant.

Watered 2 times, 4L/3L at PH 7+/6.6 Her first watering was a Worm Casting Tea that I don't PH, brewed for 26h (same recipe than last time) Second watering I had 2 Tsps of Cal-Mag in a 5 Gallon just preventive. I did some defoliation and I removed the net from my grow. The net was annoying with the other plants. The net was spreading the plant very well. I will reuse this technic for sure. Temperature raising up to 27-28C. I will be adding some AC next week. Buds are maturing nicely. Could be frostier but she still have weeks to go.

Watered 3 times 3L/4L/3L at 6.4/6.6 Raised the light to cover more area. Light at 100% at about 36". Topped dress mid-week with Gaia Green Power bloom 2-8-4 at 1 Tbsp./G medium. She is in a 10 Gallon. Installed an A/C unit to cold down the tent at around 19C during light time. I had to keep my tent open because for some reason the humidity was going very high with the A/C inside the tent. The tent was going up to 28C and I wanted something way cooler since the plants are at their ripening time. I started a worm casting tea for next week on the last day of this week. It might be her last feed. I have to figure out how much time she has to go. I am still not sure if I have to flush or not, since it is organic, but I had some harsh weed last time and I suspect it's caused by my nutrients, flushing or curing technics. She one of the healthiest in my tent. I am pretty impressed with the Living soil.

Watered once 3L before the big flush of 10L at 6.5. 50% Amber trichomes. The buds are not looking ready yet. The buds are not swollen yet. If I look just at the trichomes I would say she is over due to harvest but the buds are not done growing and are still fatting up and popping out new pistils. She will go at least an other week but I will keep a close eye to the trichomes.

Watered 2 time 4L/3L at 6.5 - Trichomes: Lots of Ambers and a mix of milky and clear. - Pistils: A few pistils are still white. - Buds: Still need to get weight. Not mature looking buds yet. By the look of the buds and the pistils, I think she needs at least another 2 to 3 weeks to go.

Pretty good week. Harvested at the end of week 13 (day 91). Water 2 time 3L at 6.5. No period of darkness. I did that to half of my plants to see if it's actually make any difference at the end. The buds are alright but I would have liked them to be larger. She still has a few white hair but the trichomes are on point with a lot of ambers. I would have kept her an other week but I rather have a bit less in quantity than having sleep medicine. She has nice green leaves but now they are turning yellow on the ones at the top. Could be cause by the fact that I flush instead of just stop feeding. The plant is now hanging in my tent at around 50% RH and between 18-20C. Next week I will update with the harvest/drying.

This plant was a monster compare to my other plants. Second time growing Samsquanch OG and I am not disappointed. Both time I got an healthy big plant yielding a good amount of delicious buds. She was looking very healthy from start to end with no issues at all. It is either the genetics or the fact that I grew this one in Gaia green living soil instead of Promix HP. Dried for 9 days in my tent at a steady 55% RH and 20C. One sad note, I had a few nice big buds (the tops) but the rest were very small nuggets even if I remove all lower buds and branches. It sucked to trim. This one was grown in a 10 gallon fabric pot but it is not necessary, next run I am going to grow in 5 gallon fabric pots since the living soil is not cheap compare to pure coco or Promix. Great smell and taste. A little bit skunky. I am really bad at describing smell and taste of week but I would say, Skunky, woody with tons of other flavor.
