WK 9. FD 37 VEGD 24. VEGGED OUT AT 25CM. Didn't do much of a stretch in pre flower. She stopped growing 2-3 weeks into Flowering. Stopped growing before pre flower ended.
Started her on triton (overdrive). Have decided to start single feeding her. 3 base nutrients together 1x a wk. 1 enzyme feed 2 bloom boosters once a wk (given different days), 1 resin enhancer a wk EC won't go above 1 now, I'll adjust PH to 6.7 every feed. And to finish the next 2 weeks off I'll give 1L split over the last day of the next 2 weeks. Getting ahead of myself. But for this week that's what I'm going to do. It's costing me a small fortune keeping RH at 50. I try my best not let get it above 55. But it hovers between 45-55. I know high, but I'm not willing to spend 7e a day to keep it at 35% will need constant running or at least 20hrs running as the girls are drinking a lot so lots of leaf transpiration.
Nvr again will I run 14 plants in 2 dif. Poxy nightmare.
4/7 not much to report. Good week. She's stacking on trichomes and getting that elusive frost I've been waiting for. She has a lovely scent. Not too strong, my tent atm is been overtaken my ganja runtz. But I do get hints of it. And my post woman commented that this time round the smell is much more pungent. She said I'm just be growing a very fruity strain. Was surprised a 50+Yr old post woman knew so much about bud. Anyways, she took a little dive last week and about a 7g tester snapped off. Well, I did give it a little help. It HST'ed and then I gave it a little push. This was last week. Took a poxy week to dry, was so dense and heavy. So, even though it was very early. I can happily say I've made my 1st A grade bud. It is beautiful. It has so many colors going throughout it. If you ask me, it should be called kosher kush. It has that unmistakable tell tell of a kush. Bordering on a kinda blueberry exhale and strong on the inhale but like blowing out something cool and nice and gentle on the exhale that tastes completely different on the intake compared to outake (exhale). She is very sweet, very deep scented. Very very lovely.
5/7 After going through this little lady. I can happily say she is done. I have had her on triton (overdrive) since last week. And gave her a very high dose of 880ppm with triton & poseidon (overdrive&bud factor X) will finish her off with calmag+water for the next few days to continue on the photosynthesis as long as I can and then I'll cut the water and take her from there. She has gotten nice and frosty. I've even gotten in a simple flush or not to flush test. I cut 3 cuttings off 3 plants. And I'm going to dry/cure for 2 month and then I should have flushed bud with a cure and we'll see if it truly does benefit to flush or am I just wasting my time flushing, (FYI, I don't flush to get run off, I soft flush. I let the plant do the eating and finish what's left in the substrate. Let's see if she gets more frosty as she finishes up eating. Her trichomes are 95% cloudy on the top she's fully cloudy. I'm going to lower her away from the light for her last few days to preserve her trichomes. As she is done.
7/7 Still eating what's left in the soil. She's done as you can see. No end of life cycle. But it is early. But when it's done it's done. I will let it finish of eating what it had from this week 1 bloom triton (overdrive) which was high at 500+110 ambient water so was 610 altogether but she has been on a light calmag diet a few days now. Keeping on this right through till the middle of next week and the last 4 days of next week will just be on water.

@CrazyHorse, ah it was just a case that I seen on led-grower.eu and seen them and when I went on I seen a chart and I was on my phone so could only see 1 half and it had 14 of the AN nutes I have and emailed and they tilt me in on them and they made most of ANs products and h9ld the pattens that made AN what it is today. So it was simply a case of me having the full AN line and telling them I'm thinking of doing a side by side grow, every AN nute I have I'll match them from the whole line up they sent. But then I have their other stuff I don't have in AN so am looking forward to getting stuck in.
So, the 400e I spent on my AN line is paying off in more ways than 1. Thanks for dropping by buddy.
Looking great this one. I did two of these last year, unfortunately I never put a diary on. I had 2 different phenos, one had some purple throughout the buds but I think I stressed that one out, the other one was completely different and some of the nicest I've grown. Looking forward to seeing the result buddy.
@gottagrowsometime, I've heard of drying in the fridge but I don't know enough about it to really have an opinion.
I have a lot of friends that dry in cardboard boxes they punch holes to stick the stems through and a few on the sides to get airflow and they like it, but again I haven't tried it I just hang mine in a closet that stays a little cooler than my house especially in the winter but the rh is pretty steady 40-50% I have to watch really close in the hot months because they'll dry in 3 or 4 days it's not optimal but I have people try stuff that dried in 3 days and some 8 days and they said they couldn't tell the difference. You might be able to send it to a lab and find a difference but I don't need to be that critical
@Cyrusdavirus, they do look very tasty. Quick question pal. Am having real temp issues. My attic is cold and can hang dry there. But it's like a pasdise for pests, so I really don't want to hang it there. I was thinking cause its so small it would fit in my fridge. I have it set a 5c do you think I'll get away with that or will the lack of air flow be an issue, would love your 2cents. Thanks
@Ju_Bps, thanks brother. She's just coming into preflower. Gonna be a short auto..not a massive yield but I'll nvr be unhappy with a bit of early smoke.
