the stretch is starting nice and slowly :D
nothing special for now... hopefully she will fill up the space a bit.
Her branches are fat but the main stem is thin!
Hey guys!
All is going well with the Bubba kush!
Its funny her main stem is less fat than the two main branches (from mainlining)! I think this is because I accidentally split the main stem at the start of flower... since then the Bubba Kush has grown more aggressively and stretched more than the other two plants forming fat healthy branches full of internodes! I guess I got lucky that the stem breaking damage was not to severe and got a healthy vigorous growth stress response from her! 😀
Will defoliate on day 21 of flower... can't wait to see what she **really** looks like 😈
Also I spread out the branches a bit, currently there are no branches right at the center, this is because these branches grew 10-15cm taller than the rest so I bent them to the corners of the tent and after defoliation with do a propper training to give branches equal space and more even light penetration.
Everything going well! Easy plant so far.
--> She has stopped stretching (a bit before the other two which are OG Kush cbd by dinafem and rich cbd candy by philosopher seeds)
Peppery smells coming through... Miam 😋
Did a defoliation the next day.
(nutrient burn tips from the botanicare pure blend pro I gave a bit too much a week ago)
Everything going well!
Buds look ugly compared to modern USA hydrids hahaha it doesn't matter at all though 😀
She hermied... can't find any naners but got some mixed sex parts and flowers that are fully focused on producing seeds so for this one I am going to assume it is from the genetics.
Put the whole plant in my ice water extraction camping washing machine:
-> Fresh frozen buds, left in water <3c for 20 minutes before spinning
-> Did 3 runs, 10min, 30min and 30min with the biggest harvest in run 2 and best/lightest color in run 1 (with run 3 looking like run 2 but much less yield)
-> Drying on baking paper in a cardboard box for 5-10 days (was too sticky to microplane! yes I put my sieve and other tools in the freezer, usually it just about works for fresh extractions but now it was too sticky - and I left enough water in it because it was also too wet)
I will leave a review when the hash is dry, however it is not too valuable of a review since I had 'bad luck'. I may try another of these bubba kush (in a small pot in the corner....) because if it indeed is derived from the real bubba clone I get it has a high chance of hermie and ill risk it for the biscuit! But maybe its a commercial shitty replica seed.... So I will wait till I see more barney's bubba kush diaries before giving it another go!
FYI the other plants sharing the tent (dinafem cbd og kush and philo cbd rich candy) are doing great! Definitely the dinafem og kush doing amazing full of golf balls ;) If she turns out terpaliscious I might have to make a diary for her :D
all going well, they easily fill the space now the bubba kush is gone however the og kush cbd will have smaller buds due to first half of flower spent in smaller space.
=> lights at 60-50%
=> flushed for 19 days
harvest at day 72
dried for 9 days at 65-55%rh (left on leaves for slower dry)
curing currently at 55% rh (will slowly increase to around 60% I think, the stems of the branches did not really snap yet but the buds were dry, luckily I didn't wait another day. The buds are slightly spongy so not too dry)
=> Smell is good so I have a lot to look forward to after the cure!
=> Smell is 'citrus schweppes' with 'moroccan pastries' smells. The Moroccan pastries smells were stronger during the cut but still present and I am sure it will turn into something beautiful after the cure!
==> Harvest weight 60g, taking up 1/5 m^w so 300g/m^2, however I did not train this plant other that topping, and would have probably 75-80g if I would harvest 10-14 days later. Also I have as much 'botanicare pure blend tea' as the plants would take, and gave less A&B base nutrients and a bit less green sensation that usual. Also I did a flush of 19 days, starting a bit early which I think increased the natural smell but reduced the yield.
> I just germinated another seed of this strain, will be growing in living soil to compare!
