Well it's been another lovely week here with the weather being just super sunny and the temperature going up by the day. The lady zkittlez is packing on some bulk now, I had to give her a few doses of canna bio flores for a pick me up and she seems to have liked it so I'll keep it up for another week and see how she's going then. She's got a strong aroma to her now but not one I'm overly fussed on, it's a bit too syrupy for my liking but hey I'm not going to complain 🤣☮️ that's just who she is. She has very strong stems to her which I do like being that I don't have to use any supports to hold her up..anyway see you all in a week guys and dolls. Peace love and lotsa buds. I'm super happy that spring has sprung so time for some big girl action. ☮️
@@BSG420, yeah I'm stoked with how she's going. I ordered Mex Airlines,Cal snow,Blue dream and got a couple of zkittlez as freebies so running a zkittlez 1st and now can't wait to do the others now 😜☮️
Just a personal update, she's been dried and cured now for about 2 weeks and she's actually better now after a good cure..like fine wine 🤣some strains are like that they get better with age.
Ok so right after saying I'd try and hold out for as long as possible unless something forced my hand..well guess what ? I've just been checking.my lady like 30 times a day and I've noticed some what I would call bud rot well mot actually bud rot but some leaves close to the buds have a sort of dying look about them but with some showing signs of being soft a wet so to me that's a form of rot which may be caused by the high temps during the day and cool temps in the morning and leaving some dew on them for a bit to long. So I'm going to keep a really close eye on this lady bcoz she's really quite the looker..I've cut out a few of those leaves which I'll post pica of in my next weekly update for future resources and it might help someone else.
When you noticed the mould coming, did you do a peroxide/water Bud wash? If not there’s a chance it can still spread mould pores around during the cure, go over them real thorough brother! Glad you noticed it early though, spreads rapid! 🙏🏻
@Se7en616, no I didn't do a wash as I was able to get as much as the bad stuff off ,it really only affected the first leaves under a couple of buds and I was really lucky that it was caused by morning dew and not heavy rain or for sure I would have lost the lot..but thanks for your concern.
@Shooey, thanks mate yeah an ounce is OK but you know how it is we always want bigger. I tend to expect around 1.5 oz is a nice plant..and your not wrong about hit and miss but I will say I'm having awesome growth on fastbuds mex airline and blue dream, I've got both going now and they're are much bigger than the zkittlez but that's sativas for ya..have a good one mate. Thanks for checking in.
I had to give her the chop yesterday afternoon as we had a bit of rain forecast so played it safe seeing as she was already not liking being wet from humidity. I'll update my diary soon with a harvest report.
@FastBuds I've checked out pretty much every grow of outdoor FastBuds and you've chimed in on but not mine I feel a bit sad about that..☮️ Namaste to you though.
Ok so I figured out how to stop getting dew on my plants in the morning, I need to move them off the grass and onto the patio concrete, it makes sense now but I had to chop off the 2 lower branches being that they were too close to the soil and were pulling moisture from it in the morning. High temps and high humidity is such a balancing act..future reference.
