Beginning of week two lollipopped all the plants- looks better, easier to water and better airflow around the bottom. The plants are stretching towards the light and they look pretty healthy. Lots of flowers forming at the top.
Details:
3x Chocolate Mint OG and 3x Purple Trainwreck grown from seed (Gorilla seedbank)
4x 600w Meizhi leds
soil is Dr Earth- Pot of Gold
I put the support baskets over the plants and it was a pain- better do that when they're still small. I'll probably defoliate some more below the canopy
I added a PK booster "beastie blooms" this week at less than half recommended dosage- hope the plants like it. So far so good though- the flowers are putting on some weight and branches are leaning against the basket. I'll probably need to tie them off and maybe add a support grid before they're finished. The plants are smelling soo good! Have a charcoal filter that when it's on there's only a slight smell but when it's off the odor hits me when I walk into the shed.
For reference for the pics- Chocolate Mint OG is on the left and Purple Trainwreck is on the right side.
Good morning! good growth this week. Some of the flowers are starting to fall over. I made a mistake of not putting a screen over the tops of the tomato cages. I used tie wire for support on some of the purple trainwreck flowers in the front. I hope the ones in the back don't have problems because they're not accessible- room is too small. Added some molasses (1 tblspn/ gallon)
I was pretty dissappointed to find bud rot infected two plants (1 each Ch Mint, Purple Trnwreck). I didn't know what it was when I first saw it. I had to shitcan some nice colas- that hurt. I'm going to try to salvage the plants- I cut out all the rot I saw and I'm controlling the humidity and airflow better now. I'm going to keep a close eye on this to make sure it doesn't spread to the other plants.
They look to me like they have a week or two more to go. The PTrainwreck (on the right) looks more ripe than the ChMint. They just smell amazing- kind of like Pine-Sol and black licorice.
This is day 60 for the three Chocolate Mint OGs. It looks like they have about one more week until harvest. I have to keep amputating the one that was infected with botrytis. I'm wondering if the buds will be ok once harvested- don't really want to smoke any spores.
Should I wash em? This Chocolate Mint just looks so awesome with the purple flowers covered with trichomes.
I harvested the Purple Trainwreck today and sure enjoyed the resin that collected on my clippers! This strain finished pretty early. Final weigh in is around 7.3 oz. This is very tasty and potent herb! Still curing but still is very smooth.
My grow last year was a little harsh because I didn't do much of a flush.

These chocolate mint flowers are extremely sticky and smells great. I was worried about a small yield after the bud rot destroyed one of the plants (mostly) but still turned out alright. I really liked the one plant that turned mostly purple so much I was going to try to take a clone.
I'm enjoying the fuck out of these Chocolate Mint OG flowers!
Ended up with a pretty good yield of about 10 and a half ounces or ten jars. This strain has it all- super potent with clear cerebral high with no anxiety or paranoia negative effects. It's also very aromatic and great purple coloring. A huge thank You to Humboldt Seeds for this one!
Some stunning Purple Trainwreck flowers 👍
Congratulations on the harvest mate some beautiful buds. Let them dry slow then cure and I can say you'll have some super potent flowers to consume 👍
Will look out for the final weigh in and thoughts on the end product when fully dry and cured of course 👍
Enjoy your HSO harvest mate 👊
With love from Humboldt County ✌️

So sorry to read about the bud rot mate. With the buds being so densely structured this can occur especially if temps and humidity get a little out of control. Remember to get lots if air flow. The more the better 👍
You've done the right thing by removing the effected plant. When bud rot hits we have seen it wipe out entire crops over night.
A nasty disease and now it's contained fingers crossed that no more mold/rit shows up.
These buds look stunning my friend and really stacking on some serious weight 👊
What are you now, 7 week's/49 days into bloom?
If so you look to have about 14 days remaing then harvest time 🙏
Keep the updates coming, be vigilant with your checks and fingers crossed for no more rot/mold 👍
With love from Humboldt County ✌️

Yeap, defoliate more and put in some support stakes for the trellises.
Wasn't sure if I needed them because I didn't last season but I made some mistakes and the buds weren't very big. Hoping to change that though this time around.
2 legendary HSO strain,s being grown out on the grow diary platform 👌
Our Purple Trainwreck and Chocolate Mint OG will make perfect companion plants and will grow very together.
They look very healthy, growing well and definitely well cared for 👍
Thank you for choosing our genetics for this adventure 👊 Let's see what you can do!👍 We are watching with interest👍
Kind regards✌️

Our Chocolate mint og are well into bloom now. Those top flowers/buds are getting ready to explode and trichome development is looking great 👍
Nice work so far buddy, keep it up and the updates coming👊.
