'Fuel D.OG Feminised was bred by crossing two highly celebrated and popular strains from the USA - Chemdog (Sour Diesel x OG Kush) and Fuel OG (|Diesel x Headband). Fuel D.OG is a 70% sativa, 30% Indica plant with very good potential yields both indoors and outdoors. Resin and THC production is also at a very high level.
Fuel D.OG improves on Chemdog, being a much more robust plant with a much more intense flavour while also developing a larger calyxes than Chemdog. Its robust appearance is typified by a thicker central stem that is so strong that it does not need to be supported during the later flowering stage in spite of the high degree of sativa stretch it undergoes once flowering has been initiated. Large spear-shaped buds surround the main stem like a crown. Outdoor cultivation produces plants that can grow up to 350 cm. tall in optimum conditions.
When cultivated indoors Fuel D.OG produces yields of 450 - 600 gr/m2 in a 65 - 70 day flowering period with generous quantities of resin already noticeable in the nascent buds during the third week. Its height can be controlled indoors by switching to the flowering light-schedule once plants are established and also by the use of the SCRoG technique whereby plants are trained horizontally. Outdoors, each plant can yield 700 - 800 gr. of large, sticky buds with harvests in the northern hemisphere ready at the beginning of October. Its large trichomes, concentration of terpenes and the sheer quality of resin make this a very serious proposition for extract/concentrate makers.
Fuel D.OG has more intense OG Kush flavors than the Chemdog parent, with increased diesel emphasis and with citric, lemon and grapefruit scents. THC content is very high with low proportions of CBD. The effect experienced by consumers is one of intense relaxation evolving into a long-lasting narcotic stone that makes Fuel D.OG more suitable for evenings unless there are no important tasks to be completed.'

Weekly Updates:
7/19- Here we go into her fourth week of life and her roots are now getting developed as is evident by the increase in her growth rate in the last couple of days.
The daily routine of watering her with de-chlorinated straight water ph'd to 6.2-6.5 @ 74℉ continues. She's got great color and remains healthy with a noticeable increase in her growth starting to occur.
The leaf discoloration persists even though she remains extremely healthy which leads me to believe that what I'm seeing is a mutation expressed as variegation in her. Her leaves aren't producing chlorophyll uniformly. This can cause issues with growth and conversely, yields sometimes so I'll for the moment I'll see how she progresses.
7/21- I'm checking her .5g pot twice daily, lifting it to check its weight to see if she needs water, and watering her with de-chlorinated straight water ph'd to 6.2-6.5 @ 74℉.
She's very healthy and starting to increase her growth rate now and is now approaching 14" tall.
Her new growth is looking less variegated and I'm hopeful that this trend will continue.
7/23- She's on a mission now! She's healthy, has great color and vigor!
I brewed up a batch of Compost Tea and gave her 0.5g of it today which should give the microbial life a kick in the butt for sure!
She will be getting transplanted into her 10g fabric pot this weekend. She's getting root bound and I'm sure that she'll love all the extra space!
The color on her new growth is looking normal, which for this plant is fkng fantastic! 😎👍🏼
7/25- Today was a big day, she was transplanted into her 10g fabric pot filled with my own special 'super soil' mix and moved into the 4x8 tent to finish the rest of her life.
In the 4x8 she'll be enjoying abundant 'Love From Above' courtesy of a pair of HLG 650R's with UVA/B bars and a HLG 225 thrown in for good measure set to a 18/6 cycle, as well as supplemental co2 ranging from 700ppm to 1400ppm when the lights are on according to what stage of growth she's in. Temperatures are kept in the optimal range by a dedicated 14k btu IdealAir AC unit and an AC Infinity Cloudline T6 with Controller, the co2 is regulated and monitored by an AutoPilot APC8200 co2 controller and supplied via twin 50# tanks.
When I removed her from her 0.5g plastic pot she was obviously root bound, with roots curling around her and almost reaching up out of her pot! I'm sure the Xtreme Gardening Mykos root stimulator I used had a little to do with her explosive root development!
The root bound condition explains the slight drop in vigor observed as well as a noticeable fade, albeit slight, of her leaves just beginning. Going into the new, amended medium will correct this within a week!
Before I placed her in her new medium I pre-moistened it with de-chlorinated water that had 1 tbsp/g of unsulfured black strap molasses added then ph'd to 6.2 @ 74℉. I do this to inoculate the microbes in the medium with some sugars to get them going.
I opened up a hole in the moistened medium and sprinkled in a scoop of Xtreme Gardening Mykos Root Stimulator, making sure to coat the entire surface of the hole. I then removed her from her 0.5g pot and placed her into the 10g pot.
After tamping her in gently to make sure that she was fully in contact with the new medium, I watered her in with 0.25g of straight de-chlorinated water ph'd to 6.2 @ 74℉.
~Thanks for stopping in! Things should be getting a lot more interesting in the coming weeks...Stay lifted and be Blessed! 😎🙏~
Lol livingroom set up: as the song, Mannish Boy by Muddy Waters, plays in the back ground. "Come on in, help yourself with the fruit on the weed." Perfect!
Happy growing! I hope you get some good results! Take care and stay lit! I will drop by sometimes to check on your process! Say hello if you ever visit my page!
Peace & Love - L.S.T 🙏🏼🌟
