Northern_Ent May 12: first full day outside and first foliar with Extreme Blend.

Northern_Ent May 16: transplanted one into 10 or 15 gallon bag.

Northern_Ent May 25: not one of the three fastest growers (GGxWW, Frostberry and Jackberry) but seems to be doing okay outside.

Northern_Ent June 2: doing fine.

Northern_Ent June 7: doing fine.

Northern_Ent June 15: supercropping main branches and wrapping with floral tape.

Northern_Ent June 21: broke one of the two main branches at the supercrop. So 100% my fault. Oops. Tried re-attaching but that failed. The other plant is fine.

Northern_Ent July 3: added Power Bloom and malt as atop dressing.

Northern_Ent July 10: really impressed with all of my QCS genetics but I’m really loving Hash Bud as a good vigorous grower.

Northern_Ent July 22: culled the taller plant as it was showing male flowers. This might be due to light leaks with the force flowering as my blackout cover doesn’t exactly fit over the dome. Or just shit happens.

Northern_Ent July 26: switched to gypsum as a calcium source. 500 g in 1000 L to get 100 mg/L calcium in solution. July 28: Last night of force flowering as all plants are solidly flowering. Back to natural light cycle (currently 16 h). July 31: added second round of Power Bloom and malt as top dressing. Started using soluble wood ash as a K source. See today’s Gorilla Gelato diary for details.

Northern_Ent Aug 1: thinned some of the understory. Aug 4: more thinning.

Northern_Ent Doing fine.

Northern_Ent Oct 4: this is a nice plant but the phenotype is not as awesome as the big manifolded plant.

Northern_Ent Oct 14: took most of plant in second round of 360 g wet for 606 g total so far. Oct 17: took final round of 100 g for total of 706 g wet from one plant.

Northern_Ent Hash Bud is a great strain that is very well suited to outdoor growing. It is a cross of the Cannabis Cup winning Canadian indica God Bud and Super Hash Plant so they could have called it God Hash or Super God Bud but they went for the more modest Hash Bud. The flower is excellent with nice solid buds and shouldn’t be overlooked because it’s a “hash plant”. Anyway, definitely an outstanding strain and would make a good commercial plant. See the Part 2 diary for the big Hash Bud manifold for other comments. One of these two plants hermied during light deprivation but that is likely my fault as the blackout curtain was a bit too small and I was trying to cheat. The light leak likely caused the hermie. Excellent genetics from Quebec Cannabis Seeds and highly recommended.
