Flowering is here! At least for the green crack fast. A couple other plants have started to show signs as well, mostly the frisian dew. I put about 3 cups of gaïa power bloom on the soil of each plant and I started a big batch of fermented fruit juice that should be ready in about 7-10 days. Other than that it's been a lot of watering and a lot of defoliation.
Hi fellow gardener,
I've just found your diary, It will be very nice to follow as Freezeland is not common these days, at least for me.
Used to be the best stuff back in late 90's where I in Quebec. It's a fantastic strain I remember how sticky and smelly it was... a true delight with intense pine smell with some touch of orange in some phenotype.
@sativaman, Happy to hear that you enjoyed the NL x BB...I don't know much about this strain and decided to grow it mostly because it is suppose to be ready for chop early in the season. And yeah the freezeland I get is from clone only. I might do the project of making seeds with it next year, I know that would make a few people happy!
@OldNorth, I wish I've kept some seeds as well. I will also keep an eye on your NL X Big Bud .. good memories around this strain too ! I wish you a great season!
@sativaman, Yes it is a wonderfull strain...perfectly suited for my northern climate. I am lucky enough to have an old friend who also love the freezeland and has been keeping the genetic for 25 years +.
I actually have two pheno of freezeland in the field. One of them we call crypto-freeze. It tends to produce the most of the two but it usually takes an extra week and a half to be fully ripe. If you harvest bedore full maturity, the smell is lacking massively. Depending on the weather here, the extra week and a half can be a little bit of a pain.
The second one is bubbleberry freeze. As the name says, it is suppose to be a cross of freezeland, bubblegum and blueberry, Doesn't yield as much but is ready a little sooner, around september 23-26th ususally.
@simps, It's an organic bloom fertilizer made using the korea natural farming method. Pretty simple to make. You take a bunch of fruits like banana, apple, and mango that you cut in pieces and mix with equal weight of fruits to sugar. You mix all of this and let it sit for about 14 days for the fermentation process to occur. You end up with a black liquid that is rich phosphorus in potassium. You mix it in with your water to a ratio of 1:1000 in early flower and 1:500 in the later stage. Look "fermented fruit juice knf" on google and you will get a bunch of results if you want to learn more.
