Thanks Ganja Farmer Seeds for selecting me to be in their grower of the year contest. I’m psyched to try this version of one of my favorite strains—loved skunk as a teenager.
Seed popped vigorously after less than 24 hours and planted in a 15l fabric pot with Biobizz Allmix after 48 hours.
Good luck to all the other entries!
This one has come up strong and fast. Planted in soil (Biobizz Allmix) after 48 hours and the seedling broke the surface after another 48. Pleased so far!
Not a huge change this week, no problems either. Thanks to Ganja Farmer for letting me participate in their grower of the year competition and good luck to everyone competing!
Picking up a bit of growth this week, also added a bit more soil (I like the Biobizz Allmix but it does compact a lot!). No problems so far. Thanks Ganja Farmer for the seeds!
Strong growth despite the heat. The main cola has now been FIMmed twice. Won’t be able to do anything with it for two weeks, so hope it doesn’t get too huge. I’m aiming to keep it bushy.
Thanks Ganja Farmers for the seeds!
A brief report from our plant sitter. It’s responded very well to multiple FIMs and the fan leaves have really grown this week. No problems apparent. Thanks Ganja Farmer for the seeds!
Back home and a bit of a bummer. My plant sitter got held up and it’s not looking very happy. But I’m giving it a nice bath and we’ll see what happens! Figured I’d FIM again and switch to flower next week.
Thanks Ganja Farmer!
Pleased to see the last FIM went well. Good growth. Flipped to 12/12 at the start of last week but not flowering yet. Otherwise all good!
Thanks Ganja Farmer for the contest seeds!
Finally flowering! Glad to see so much growth. No problems at all this week. It’s responded super well to the fimming and defoliation. I’m now giving 2L of stale water every 2-3 days or so, alternate water and nutrients. On we go!
Not too much to report this week. Smell is picking up a bit and trichromes are developing nicely. Plenty of growth all around. No problems—everything looks happy.
Another good week. Loads of trichromes now, looking like it might be really frosty. Smell has kicked up a level as well—intense sweet skunk. The first few pistils are starting to turn brown. Other than that, no problems. So far this has been a very easy grow!
Wow. So the smell has been building in strength over the past few weeks, which is to be expected. This week the smell is so intense that it woke me up in the night from another room! Even my Rhino filter isn’t coping. So be warned: this is a super smelly strain. I’m hoping we can harvest before my wife goes nuts and chops it down. 😂
Other than the smell: good growth and no problems at all. This has been a really easy strain so far. Not exactly mega fast despite the name, but I’m not in a rush and obviously left it in veg for a while. I trimmed a pile of leaves this week to help keep it happy.
No plant problems this week. The extractor fan broke, which is very annoying, and so humidity had shot way up. I can only keep it in the 70s by leaving the tent wide open.
Buds are fattening a bit and they look fairly dense and frosty. Plenty of orange pistils now but mostly clear trichromes. A few more weeks!
Got a replacement extractor fan to replace the cheap one I’ve had for a few years now, but the humidity is still pretty high. There’s plenty of bud growth going, but we’re at about 80% milky trichromes. No amber ones yet. I think I’ll chop in a week or two, so will probably start flushing shortly.
Have a great week comrades!
The flush continues. No amber trichromes yet but just about all milky. Still some bud growth but I need to clear the tent out for the holidays. Will harvest some time in the next week.
After drying for 7 days: It’s a really nice head high. Not too strong but not weak for sure. Not much flavor at this stage but will check in after the cure.
After two weeks: gassy and pleasant. Not super strong or particularly mind blowing, but definitely a strain I’m happy with. It’s not quite the mid-90s skunk we’re all searching for, but it’s a positive option if you’re a skunk fan. Will grow it again for sure. Big thanks to Ganja Farmer for the seeds, definitely recommend it.
Well, absolutely no fuss with this one. No nute issues, no bugs, no nothing. I have to admit that it wasn’t very fast, despite the name. I was really hoping for a larger yield especially for the pot size and the amount of veg time. For ease of growing I’d give this one a 10/10, but I’m much less impressed with the yield. It responded super happily to multiple FIMs in that it didn’t have any stress signs, but maybe I’d try just a straight grow next time.
You got a beautiful girl, comrade 🍻 Germination, begin of flower, the drying and curing this are the most stressful for me (probably for all of us growers ;) ...Now you got two important steps behind you friend 💪😅 can't wait for the finish.
@Growpotkin, lol 😆🤣 two month ago I was putting together the 60 x 60 tent and my almost 4 year old and his friend who was in the house asks me what I'm building😆 I answered " it's a space rocket" 😅and they played a bit inside but we're bored quite quick.
now i need to buy a NASA t-shirt so the story that my kids are telling in kindergarten holds water to scrutiny.
Hahaha yes! She is totally in favor of growing, but I think for both of us this one is a bit strong… but hopefully it’ll be good as well. My main worry is when my kid will start talking about their parents’ plant medicine at school… 😅😅😅
Ciao caro! Scusa il disturbo ho visto le tue cime e caspita sono proprio gelide! Ascolta ho letto che la pianta ha sopportato più fimming ma non riesco a vedere dalle foto questa tecnica! Puoi spiegarmi come hai fatto?chiedo solo perché vorrei farle come te... Hehehe
@CURATI_DA_SOLO, thank you so much! Google translate hasn’t worked well so I’m sorry if I’ve misunderstood you. I flushed for about two weeks, which I don’t normally do. But I was away from my plants and a friend was watering them, so I wanted to make it easy for him. The leaves changed color very fast. Is that what you meant? Sorry if not, my Italian is terrible! 😅😰
All the best to your new girls on their journey to frostines growmie 🌱💚
Love your nickname, I consider "Mutual Aid" as the most important book everybody should read...I got 3 fresh copies of it in case some of my visitors is interested 😎
@Metatronix, thanks so much! And you’re the first person to comment on the name, that’s extremely rad. I have to admit that Gustav Landauer is my favorite theorist, but I couldn’t work out a weed related pun. 😂😂 Thanks comrade, made my day! 💪💪
