She’s still growing well, except I had a little mishap with my circulation fan shifting overnight last week, and it wind burned two of my colas - one of them got hit pretty bad. I even might throw that cola on the chopping block if it doesn’t snap out of its funk in the next week.
If you compare the height between now and last week it looks like it hadn’t grown much, but that is because I had to pull down two of my colas to even them out with the rest of the crew (the rest except the wind burnt colas). With Nugbuckets’ method of mainlining, he recommends to keep the top of all of the colas at the same elevation.
I finally found my stride with watering, but that’s because I’m a noob and still trying to dial my good and bad habits in. It is a little late in the grow to figure that out, but next time will be a lot better. I also added calmag this week because of Kind Soil’s tendency to suffer calmag deficiencies with LED lighting (the Acapulco Gold in the same tent starting showing calcium deficiencies and I found out about this KS problem through some online research in multiple forums). Along with the Recharge as well, I also started adding a dab of Mammoth P at the end of the week.
A little recap of my grow, which is also growing alongside with its Acapulco Gold cousin in the same tent in my other journal: I'm going all organic with Kind Soil hot soil and a very minimal use of Recharge and now also Mammoth P. I'm doing Nugbuckets' Mainlining method to get 8 even colas. Next week will be my last week of veg because I think I’ve almost plateaued with the other plant in the same tent’s veg height on its pheno, and it is also around the recommended time to switch to flower with Kind Soil’s recommendation for max veg life to still have enough nutrients to last through flower.

@BeefWellingtons, yeah, but was going to see if they'll come out alright without relying on the temp change too much. DJ Short, the father of the Blueberry strain, recommends 11/13 to help bring out the more exotic traits. If it doesn't work, I won't be too bummed out. If anything, the 11/13 is at least supposed to be bring out a stronger terp profile anyway.
Dude, what’s not to like about packing almost 2oz. In to a 22” plant. IMO - it’s all relative and quality always trumps quantity! Great grow and awesome info. I’ll def. give that light cycle a try on next photo grow. Got stoned and forgot to on this current one 😉 lol. Great diary homie👊
@TheBudWhisperer, thanks, Bud! I really appreciate you sticking around through this grow!
Haha, yeah, according to the breeder's estimated flowering period I shaved off about 10-20 days. I think it is true the yield would be larger if I did 12/12, but the dankness is just too superb.
@BeefWellingtons, ... the Super Silver Haze and Neville's Haze videos I think were my favorite. Monster plants even though they were grown indoors. It looks like somebody else has a good collection of the videos on this link:

@BeefWellingtons, they are kind of scattered around on the internet. They have a few on their website, but the easiest way to find the one you want is to Google them. I do think most are on YouTube at least. All the ones I have watched, they do the 5-day drought after a flush on the 16th day of flowering, and then again on the 28th day. I don't flush, because of the living soil, so maybe that is why the BK went dry so quickly?
This Google search should have a bunch of the videos available:

@MovingOn,I hear ya. Same here, with letting it go too dry. Two of my lower branches just sagged over the weekend. They were popcorn colas but still it sucked.
Can you link me the GHSC video?
hey Doc, Are you going to use anything for the Co2, I see you got your Co2 PPM measured, do you use a meter? I use the Co2 bags but i have no idea if they are effective or what ppm comes out as i have no meter yet, they look a bit costly at the mo. The plants seem to like the bags tho.
@MovingOn, if i could make a suggestion...You would get away with just 1 light on veg mode for now this early on, 1800w on 2 young plants is possibly a bit excessive, that would bring your temps down a bit and you would possibly get more benefit from the Co2 bags you have going. But your grow space and environment will dictate that too.
@MovingOn, looking forward to the harvest. I will take another run with the kind soil after I move to the new place in Feb. Going to use all your suggestions too ;)
@Iop420, thanks! I am really happy about it. If only I could share the taste over the internet, this strain is so flavorful. I highly recommend it to anybody out there. There's a link to the seeds in the weekly comments if you are interested.
The flowering nodes on your plants look to be absolutely amazing. You've done such an amazing job with this grow so far and I'm so excited to see how these plants finish up as well as to hear how they smoke. Best wishes my friend :D
