Aaaalright. Forgive me frens for I have sinned. But I just couldn't help myself. I've always wanted to grow and had some half-assed dorm room vegs aboot a decade ago. So when I went to throw some dog shit in a dumpster and stumbled across a relatively handsome lady plant, you bet your couchlocked hindquarters I carried her home. Scheming the whole damn way. I'm starting this GD on 8.31, but plant was rescued on 8.5. I'll try to catch it up right quick. Up front, I know I'm a fucking idiot and bringing a plant indoors is the worst idea ever. I assure you I have suffered accordingly, have struggled with root block, lockout, mites, etc. But the bitch is still standing and I think I just might get a bit of weight off it aside from the valuable learning experiences. I'm really looking forward to being a part of this community and promise to post other projects I have undertaken since👍

What is your favorite way to finish a plant at this stage? Dark period? Starving? Get wild with some stem splitting? No need for flush cuz super soil 👍

Hello @NullHypothesis ! I always flush before harvest. Super soil or not there are always minerals in the soil for the plant to absorb no matter if they came from dried amendments that have been broken down by microbes or they came from bottle nutrients organic or not. Its a huge misconception that super soil doesn't need flush. As for dark periods before harvest, ice cubes in the soil, cutting the leaves at half and stuff don't have any scientific buck up. What has scientific buck up is that when you harvest the plant at the dark time of the light/dark cycle you get more terpenes. Happy growing ! 👍

@BeefWellingtons, I will try to get a good pic today when the lights come on in a couple hours. Taking pics through the 40x with an iphone is difficult haha

@Fullmeltalchemist, how are the tricomes looking? I like the idea of the dark period, but it doesn't seem to be backed by much science. Either way, I think I'll try it on my harvest, also the starvation method where you stop watering before harvest (on soil grow).

This has to be the most loved plant on growdiaries!! They should have a prize for the most interesting backstory on a plant, you would get 1st prize for sure!

@BeefWellingtons, 🙏👊 TYSM for following along! I had a itty bitty larfy branch break 10 or so days ago, so I dried it. Smoked it last night and it was really really tasty. Citrusy diesel. Oddly, the SMOOTHEST J I have smoked in a while. The stoke is real rn.

@Fullmeltalchemist, what happened to you should happen to all of us! You definitely got the crash course! I've been rooting for her since you first added it up and I was stunned on how well you did with her. That plant will probably be the best smoke in your whole life! Great job bud.

@BeefWellingtons, 😂 I really appreciate it. This plant is a metaphor for my whole life pretty much lol. Really though, I'm so fortunate. This thing has taught me about rehabbing sick plants, transplanting, LED lights, ventilation, mites(!), training, defoliating, overwatering, patience in flower. All before I really had enough confidence to buy my tents and get going with seeds. She gave me a crash course <3

I love this story! You were destined to grow this plant and smoke it! There will be something special about walking your high on your own supply. Like a weird full circle feeling =p

Dude you are the man. What kind of fuck nut 🥜 throws away a perfectly good ganja plant. One mans trash 🗑️ is another mans treasure I suppose. Welcome to the world 🌎 of cultivation. It is a wonderful journey and hopefully this inspires you to refine your setup and grow things on your terms. I like to experiment with my grows. Check them out on my YouTube channel if you want to see some of my Recirculating Deep Water Culture setup: www.youtube.com/channel/UCJiLvEn7XRcH_o3sHd8qbyQ

@mad_scientist Thanks for that info. Flushing just consists of putting ph'd water through until some runoff goes through?

@Fullmeltalchemist,Yeap tap water is just fine. At least one week before harvest.

@mad_scientist, Heck that's a lot of water even for my new DIY berkey haha. Does tap water do ok for this? How long before chop does this need to happen?

@Fullmeltalchemist, Yeap. 👍 The water needs to be around 3 times the volume of the pot.
