Put 5 fem seeds in wet paper towel on June 22, 2018 and 48 hours later we have tails and in the pots they went and under led light until they pop out of soil 🙏👌 100% germination rate Update! All girls have popped out of soil and we put them in to the veg tent under 600 watt mh light on 18/6 light schedule. Just water for now until they grow up a bit 🌱👌 Update July 2nd; girls are just finishing up first week of veg and the temps in the tent are reaching 30 degrees due to heat wave we have currently. Hoping temps will come down or will have to install an in-line fan

July 5; we are now in 2nd week of veg. The temps are a bit on the higher end in the tent and somedays have reached 30 degrees due to our heat wave we are having. This is even with having installed an a/c. They are coming along well🌱 there are two girls who have a bit of speckled looking leaves so I’m not sure if it could be due to heat stress. They did look like that as soon as they came out of their jackets though. Any tips appreciated 🙏

July 11 the PAK girls entered 3rd week of veg and are doing fantastic :) they have now been transplanted into their second home and are being fed Remo Nutrients. We didn’t start feeding the nutrients until now because the medium we used in first pots already had some nutrients in it and we didn’t want to overdo it. The medium we are using now is Promix BX July 15th the girls also got topped

4th week of veg for the PAK girls, had to put the dehumidifier in the tent as the humidity levels were reaching %60-70 and they are looking better already. Everything is going well, some of the new growth however at the top almost looks like ripped leaves and I’m reading this can have to do with too much condensation on the plant and the hid light acting like a magnifying glass and burning them a bit. We are hoping the dehumidifier will solve this issue.

The PAK ladies are just finishing up 5th week of veg and we have increased the feeding to 5ml/gallon of each of the recommended nutrients by Remo Nutrients. Incredible looking plant so far, I love how compact, dense with vegetation and how deep green she is. Some of the plants have the purple stem and others have not shown it yet. Gonna veg these girls a bit longer before flipped to flower

The PAK ladies in these pictures were just finishing up 6th week of veg and doing really well with Remo Nutrients. Still letting her veg a bit longer and will be transplanting her into bigger pots soon. We did a little bit of pruning to allow more airflow

Things are really moving along with the PAK girls now. On the second week of flower and starting to develop buds. This is when things start to get exciting. Can’t wait for trichomes to start frosting them up ! Plants are loving the Remo Nutrients, have not had any issues with it at all

The girls have really made huge progress in the last week as you can see in the pictures. They have really started to stack and frost up nicely. We had to raise the light too as plants have been stretching a bit too

Just finished up 4th week of flower and this was last week of nutrients as I’m doing an aprox 30 day flush. Did some defoliating to allow the smaller budsites to get bigger and for more airflow! I am noticing two pheno types so far - one shorter that smells strong of sweet berries and the other one is taller, whispier buds and smells like dank, gassy Kush

A lot of things are starting to happen as we are getting closer to finish line as you can see in pictures 😍 Just finished 5th week of flower and decided that this would be last week of nutrients as ppm levels really aren’t that high and they could use a last push before flush. Added some advanced nutrients big bud this week as well Starting to see that purple coming through now especially on two phenotypes and the smell is incredibly strong with completely trichomed covered buds! Getting very excited now

6th week of flower is now complete and the girls are just receiving water 💦 for 6th, 7th and 8th week with the first complete flush where we run through about 15l water with flawless finish. We will do this again in end of week 7. Two of the plants are really starting to show purple colours 😍

You can tell the PAK ladies are getting close to the end of their life - leaves are really fading nicely and starting to curl up and the cookie of the plants are really getting purple . Only one pheno with no purple traits. Smell is strong of sweet fruit mixed with sour milk (weird I know) and the resin on them is just amazing.

Happy Harvest Day!

Purple Afghan Kush is definitely a true Indica just like her reputation, and shows it in the way she grows - starts out short and bushy and needs a nice long veg in order to finish at full capacity. Does not yield the biggest buds but it makes up for it in beauty as she might be one of the nicest strains I have grown! She is also incredible smelling during the entire bloom phase - like sour fruit

This was a strain I’ve had my eye on for a very long time and happy to say I have now fully experienced her from seed until harvest ! The ladies were harvested on Day 58 of flower and were hung to dry. Very easy to grow, not sensitive to anything and likes it a bit dryer in her pot. Beautiful plant to look at while in bloom - completely covered in trichomes and lots of beautiful calyxes While in flower she smells of fresh fruit and and very pungent. After dry she smells of cheese, earthy and peppery. I would love to send her off for some lab results as the effects tell me she is high in thc! Will definitely grow her again :)00

This last week you can really see the bud development and the trichome production looks amazing 👍 Nice to read that you are thinking about starting the flush phase. Can I ask how long do you flush for (7-10 day's)? Looking in tip top shape mate 👌 All the best ✌️ Mark..
DinafemSeeds
DinafemSeedscommented6 years ago
@nbacmprgirl2018, That's what I like to hear. A nice long flush, checking your run-off to leave a nice pure and clean end product 😎 That's how it should be done. Take note new growers 👍 All the best ✌️ Mark..
nbacmprgirl2018
nbacmprgirl2018commented6 years ago
@DinafemSeeds, Hey Mark ! Thank you so much for checking in again :) it means a lot ! We do a an approx 20 day flush where they get nothing but water, but the last 7-10 days we actually flush the plants and check the runoff with a ppm meter and let them dry out for a good 3 days in between 👌

DinafemSeedscommentedweek 67 years ago
She's a fair size lady mate 👍 Personally I would get her potted up into your finish pots. Give her 10-14 days to get established then start the flower show 😎 This is going to be a stunning flower show and one we will be watching with interest 👍 Thank you for taking the time to update your diary, I'll drop back in on the next ✌️ All the best Mark..

@nbacmprgirl2018, No problem my friend we all get distracted from time to time 👊 I see you are 3 weeks into bloom now so the stretch is over and all focus will be on big fat bud production 👊 Looking really good from this end buddy and as always thank you for the diary update ✌️ Until next time 👊 All the best Mark.

Nice little PAK babies, this strain is slow to veg but give her some time to fill out and she will reward you with some nice buds.

That crystal coverage is crazy and nice decision on the defoliation. This will allow more light through to those lower budsites 👊 Looking great in here as we hit the half way stage of bloom 👊 Thanks for the update buddy, I'll drop back in on the next 😎 All the best Mark..

Purple afghan kush is one of my favourite indica strain that we have every produced. Packed full of flavour and one of the most photogenic strains on the Dinafem menu 👍 Can I ask what soil/medium are you using as this could be the cause of the yellowing with the 2 ladies but it could also be heat related which is more likely due to the heat wave 😎 Let's see how our pak performs in your garden and we will be watching with interest 👍 Good luck and I'll drop back in on the next update 😎 All the best Mark..

Dinafem x Remo nutrients always do special things and this is another grow that has done very well indeed 👊 Purple Afghan kush is my favourite indica strain in our line. I hope you enjoy her like I do. Filled with a sweet pineapple flavour and that heavy hitting indica high. You'll love her 👌 Until your next adventure 😎 All the best ✌️ Mark..
