S06: Shogun by RQS

Hi guys, welcome to a quick update on the Shogun. It's the third week of her life and it seems to go pretty well so far. Fan leaves are getting big, due to the additional CO2 and more intense light. Other than that it's not much to report because everything is looking just fine. I'll also top it when it get's a bit bigger. See you next time. XOXO Cremo

Hi guys, Here's a quick one on the Shogun. I topped it today and I'm planning to top it again a few times at once in a week or so when it develops more. I'm super pumped to see it flourish!! :D XOXO Cremo

Hi guys, A week has gone by, the plant recovered to topping and it seems to be ready for another set of toppings in the coming days. Let's do this! XOXO Cremo

Hi guys, alright! This is the time to top this Shogun a few times more (and a defoliation) and transplant it to the flowering room in a few days! I'll perform several toppings just because it grows so nicely and I want to maximize its potential. Then I'll bend a few branches here and there to make things even more fun :D LETS GOOOOOO! XOXO Cremo

Hi guys, here's what's up with the Shogun! I've transplanted it the same day into the flowering room as the Cali Deli. They are both bigger than usual. Let's see they perform in this stage. I defoliated it and left only the latest bud sites. That's the last heavy defoliation. From this day, only small defoliations the plants will undergo. XOXO Cremo

Hi guys, this week went by like a breeze. The Shogun is getting bushy very quickly so I had to defoliate it heavily AGAIN! I also added 16L of fresh water with nutes. Next week I'll exchange the whole water tank. You can see the before and after defoliation photographs in the gallery. Hopefully some fat ass buds will show here in a few short weeks :D XOXO Cremo

Hi guys, The foliage of both of these strains in this reservoir are off the hook. That's probably due to stronger lights and additional CO2! I defoliated the plant week after week with the premise to uncover the bud sites, and left all the big fan leaves outside. It looks super healthy and beautiful. It's been topped so many times that it should look like a beautiful flower when it's in full flower :D Let's spread their wings and let her fly :P XOXO Cremo

Hi guys, Welcome to the SHOGUN diary! Damn this week this plant caught up! I thought that it was a slow (flowering) starter, but damn! Beautiful budsites appeared in the last few days, and the amount of pistils is crazy for such a short period. I've lollipopped her before, and I've already defoliated her like every week because I want to as much light penetration as the buds can get! Gonna need a better scrog net for my next run because this one can't almost control the vigor of these plants in this reservoir. Other then that she's doing fricking great! She seems to be in such a turbo mode, every day, she's getting bigger! See you next time around with hopefully fatter bud sites and more opportunity for quality shots! XOXO Cremo

Konichiwa :D welcome to the Shogun diary! This week was amazing because this plant practically exploded in thickness. The buds are swelling up like crazy and are starting to look a lot like the Cali Deli. I didn't expect this but I'm very pleased with it :) Hopefully I'll be able to shoot some great shot soon. XOXO Cremo

Hi guys, the Shogun sneaks up on the Cali Deli like a real Shogun, he's following the foot steps of the giant and it does it like a true master. The buds start to look like ball nugs, beautifull, the smell is getting sweater and better with every single day. Just a few more weeks and we're done and ready for a hopefully great yielding harvest :D For now, please enjoy the photo gallery :) XOXO Cremo

So guys, it seems like that's the last one for the Shogun! I had to miss 2 previous updates and the plant seems to be ready for harvest. The Shogun swelled up pretty well. I love the phat nugs. The amount of trichomes on all the leaves is frickin crazy. I took out the whole plant out of the reservoir and started manicuring it as a whole. And after chopping it down I wanted to shoot some macro shot for you all of the intersection of some branches so y'all can see how it actually looks like. The overall plant is beautiful, I loved growing it. I love this grow season so much. Great genetics and lots of fun. I've topped this plant around 8 times or something so anybody agains topping, y'all don't know what you're doing if you're not topping them :D I believe that I've maximized the potential of this particular pheno! Please enjoy some shots of the last moments of the majestic Shogun from RQS! Arigato! XOXO Cremo

I've topped the Shogun around 8 times in total! It was aaa tad bit slower in the beginning than the other plants but a few weeks into flowering she outdid some plants in the size department. It was a blast to grow. I'm very happy with the yield. The smell of this plant is sweet like cookies. It's everything I could wish for! Great job RQS!!!
