Well, let's go week 14. Im happy that she is healthy no over/underwater signs, no burns,no changes on the leafs, but i feel that they don't change mutch. Buds aren't huge and probably they won't be bigger, time will tell i guess.
I have read that defoliation might help in boosting yield, so I have plucked some fan leaves. I think it looks decent.
Smell started to be noticalbe, classic green one. So far she was very stealthy.
Week 15, i think that the harvest will be in 2 weeks, the buds aren't huge but they are healthy and have lots of resin.
(edit) I have decided that the best day, the harvest day! will be at 01.03.2023. For the last two days i won't turn on the light.
My review of the strain:
The only flaw to this strain is lack of purple hues in flowers im my phenotype ( i have lost the genetic lottery).
The size and height of this strain were perfect for my growing conditions, It was not too tall or too short, and it had a healthy appearance throughout the entire growth cycle. There were no signs of overeating, burns, or any other stress-related issues throuout the cycle .
The flowers are long and airy with medium size buds, which remind me of Indica strain. The buds are visually appealing and have pleasant aroma.
Speaking of the aroma, this strain has a fresh, green, pine, spicy, and slightly lemony scent. The aroma is not overpowering, but it was noticeable and enjoyable.
Finally, the high of this strain develops slowly and is initially energetic. However, it eventually mellowed out into a pleasant aura that left me feeling relaxed and happy.
So here it is, the best day has finally come.
It's my first fully documented grow diary and im happy how it turned out.
Lately i have been called .. "Pothead" or "Junkie" and i was wearing those labels. I was not happy about that but then i have found this site and it was comforting for me to see that there are others like me, people who see that there is something more to cannabis than just smoking it.
So thanks growmies for just being here.
I Will add the weight and pictures of final product later . She is drying up.
What do you do with excess trim ? Throwing it away seems a bit wasteful.
@AdamCanna, Hi mate, that colour you are looking for is mostly genetic indeed, Shaman has on average about 75% coloured genes, 25% can turn green. Night temperatures can cause colourful hues but that doesn't make the buds completely purple like on the main picture.

I do hope you will find that special purple/pinkish pheno mate, good luck and enjoy growing! 😎
@DutchPassion_Official,
Thank you, i feel noticed. Im happy how the strain looks.
But i have one question thats been on my mind lately. Its about purple colour,Im awere that its too early for this plant to develop different hues.
I was looking around for growers of this strain and i have found that some of them got great looking plants but their plants didn't developed purple shades even to the time of harvest. Why is that ?
I have read that its partialy about Genetics, some just do and some don't develop that colouring. But i have also read that it is about lowering temperature at night. I dont know how to lower the temperature in my grow box :(
So here is my main question, is there any other way to ensure or increase the chances for developing purple hue in this strain ?
Colour was one of the main resons why im growing this strain, on the main pictures its just looks otherworldly beautiful.
She looking good man
Some plants go a bit slow in beginning but that's also because we see her everyday 😄
In the next weeks she will definitely bulk up.
U can only control temperature, Feeding and humidity now, all the rest is up to her haha
Happy growing buddy 🙏
