An authentic and rustic hybrid, resistant and vigorous, flowering Fast and fat, frosty flowers with intense flavor. Productive and high quality strain. Very recommended.
Big Foot:
Grimace OG (ChemDawg cross+OG Kush) x HashPlant (Northern lights+Afghani)
Hybrid 50% Sativa/50% Indica
60 days Flo (+/- 70)
Started 21/03 -Flo 1/08….harvest 1st October
Result: 290g wet buds: this is certainly not a mass harvest…But the mission is complete.
The objectives were: 1-growing medium plant for discretion(neighbors, robbers) in medium pot for moving it.
2-obtain an harvest
3-smoke a good homemade weed
So the session is a success, even if meteorological conditions were extreme, predators were hungry.
Grow resume:
Easy grow during vegetation period. The development is vigorous and the 2 successive topping give a stocky and bushy structure, with a deep green color. The plant endured 4 heat waves with day temperatures up to 40 degrees and night at 25 degrees. The strain showed a strong resistance, survived with a minimum automatic watering (Blumat) during holiday weeks. The growing process was never be affected by heat.
Good rooting system. The plant was just limited by the pot size.
Flowering period started as usual at the beginning of August. Big foot revealed here potential with a dynamic and fast flowers development. The battle against parasites was long and stressful but the predators and the treatments didn’t cause concrete damages or stress to the plant. The bud became large, dense, sticky, with a strong, almost aggressive smell ; in just 60 days.
After 2 weeks flushing, I stopped watering 6 days before Harvest and put the plant in total obscurity during 72h. Final cut: 1st October during the last days of the waning moon.
Conclusion:
The bonus objective was to get around 100g of dry buds at the end…. It will be not for this time but growing Big Foot was a pleasant experience and I’m now impatient to smoking it.
The Sweet Seeds description of the strain is realistic. I’m Satisfy to have chosen it.
Observation and things to change for next sessions:
- be more patient to start the germination: after mid April is better: no artificial light required to complete a daylight duration up to 12 hours, less cold.
- grow in a bigger pot: 40L
- find solutions to protect the plant against insects aggression: natural predators or beneficial associations of plants.
- try to used less liquid and concentrate nutrients, preferring a slow nutrients way and a good soil preparation.
