Run #5.5 - Fruity Jack

SONG OF THE WEEK: Post Malone - Go Flex -------- Day 1/2 - 16.09 - Hi everybody , thank you for reading this lines . So to be clear I did not choose that strain but I win it in a giveaway from The Vault Seedbank but I'm really pleased to grow it cuz' as far as I can remember I never grew a true jack so this will be my very first try 😎. Out of her shell and inside a pot the same day. She start her life with many changes 👍. ------ Day 5 - Nice thrive since day 1 👍

Day 8 - Leaves are a bit longer but no real changes since last week 🌱. She stretch way too much on first week 😒

Song of the week : Quarashi - Stick 'em Up ------- Day 15 - Last week she was over watered and as consequence the grow have been slowly than expected. Jack is now pushing his 5th node and will be top soon to keep the canopy flat and under control.

Song of the week : Jay-Z & Kanye West - Ni**as In Paris ------ Day 25 - I can see 3 issues. 1st a N def , the poring soil wasn't enrich enough to handle 3 weeks but now I transplanted her she will find plenty of it in the new soil. 2nd : White fly so I will use a pesticide as I don't want to spread neem oil every 2 days until the adults and the eggs die. 3rd : I don't take good care of her so she shows me my mistakes.

Song of the week : Chuck Berry - Johnny B. Goode ------- Day 31 - I just realise that it is a sativa dominant strain 🙃 , I don't really take care of her but I will soon. The fact that she's a sativa dom mean she needs a bit more nitrogen than an indica ( comment if I'm wrong) so she'll get an extra guano during the next transplant ✌️😛 ------- Day 34 - Today I bend the main stem at 90° 👉 Supercroping

Song of the week : J Balvin - Safari ft. Pharrell Williams ------- Day 38 - The supercroping is a success and the fruity Jack feel better in the new pot and extra soil , the roots are already out of the bottom holes. The secondary stems are starting to reach the light. I am happy with her. ------- Day 40 - Transplant into a 7L pot and maybe the final pot.

Song of the week : Nicky Jam x J. Balvin - X (EQUIS) ------- Day 46 - The temperatures are high so the soil is drying fast so the girl ( yes : Jack is a girl ) needed to be watered what have been done with 1.5L of tap water. Thanks to the suppercroping the shape is now more bushy and the secondaries stems are starting to make a nice and flat canopy just like my Medi bomb #1 ( current diary ). The height is 23cm tall but after the stem bending so she's a bit smaller thanks to that. ------- Day 49 - Secondaries are growing nicely

Song of the week : Lil Wayne - She Will ft. Drake -------- Day 53 - The secondaries are almost at the same height than the apex so I'm will be time to put a 12/12 light schedule. You can see 1st signs of deficiencies on the leaves : Mag is the main one so a feeding will resolve this for sure. I'm still thinking about a full LST on every secondaries but my laziness takes over 🤣👍

Song of the week : Lupe Fiasco - Kick, Push ------- Day 59 - First day outside so the flowering start now 😁✌️ Last week she was transplanted in a 11L pot and today I gave her 2/3L of water as she started to get under watered. Feeding soon I'm not a defoliation fam bit I'll give it a try this time , a bit of defo... just a bit

Song of the week : Shabba Ranks - Mr Loveman ------ Day 64 - 20.11 - She's strong and healthy but had a Mag def so she received some Greenhouse Hybrids Powder & Calcium yesterday like her sisters from the Run#6. The way she grows will makes me defoliate a bit as some big leaves are blocking light to lower bud sites and it is impossible to knit then like I do on my Cherry Bomb, the lower branches will also get removed : I'll try to do a clone. The trunk have a lemony smell when I touch it 😍 ------- Day 66 - The shape is nice today since she stretched a bit and I have het 1.5L of Mega Crop at 1.5 Ec because I think she's a big nuts eater

Day 71 - The stretch was superb with this one , she's more than twice taller than before the begenning of the stretch and the roots are solid as you can see on the pictures. The thin leaves are highlighting the sativa traits. She seems to drink fast ------- Day 72 - 29.11 - The flowering is starting , the 1st bud sites are pushing pistils and the shape is a nice sativa looking bush thanks to my light LST. ------- Day 76 - 02.12 - Wow she's drinking a lot so she receive 5L of water today as the soil was dry as hell 😈. The flowering process is now clearly visible so I will remove the lower useless stems and bud sites to redirect the energy to the future buds more exposed to light. Picture incoming

Song of the week : French Montana - No stylish ------- Day 79 - The flowering is clearly visible 🌹🌺 and the shape is perfect to me 🌲 due to my training.this bushy shape is really pleasant to look. No particular smell when you put your nose on a bud 👃

13.12 - I forget if that last watering was with or without fertilizer. Anyway she is doing pretty good , clear green but no real signs of deficiencies She drinks fast no I need to water often : maybe it is smart to use that fact to tweak my feeding schedule by adding less nutrient but at each watering. For a sativa she remains short after the stretch and with a proper training she takes a nice bushy shape : I did remove many little stems and bud sites to optimise the main buds fattening 😁✌️🏼🌲

Day 93 - I feel like this strain could be a good choice for any kind of extraction, the buds and sugar leaves are shining under the sun light and every buds sites seems to swell the same way. The bushy shape on that one is my of my best result and the sativa dominance is really helping. She looks like a haze. The only negative aspect is the smell , her name is Fruity jack but mine wanna be a Diesel Jack 🤔 why not , maybe the late flowering nutrients will brings out the feuity flavour 😁✌️🏼🦎 No feeding for now but a small amount of Mr.b's bloom fertilizer was added to the soil last week. A feeding with hybrids powder will follow soon at 1.7 Ec to push her a bit , I choose hybrids powder because of it higher nitrogen amount it will perfectly fit with the sativa trait that require not nitrogen in flowering stage than an indica ( due to the longer flowering period). --------- 23.12 - The girl seems to drink something like 2L a day even 3 , the 10L pot is doing that : too small for the plant the soil is drying fast because the plant is drinking and the sun is shining

Day ?! To Day?! - This week she's focused on bud fattening and trichomes production. The shape of the bud reminds me of many other sativa dom , if you take a look at my green poison so diary you will see the same kind of bud structure on the tallest one. The feeding was chaotic, I missed a lot of feeding so she's started to have some potassium def which is not a big problem at that stage but I feed her with 1 tea spoon of Mr.B's Bloom to fulfil her needs. The smell is 50% citrus and 50% sour , pretty stealth when you are not close from the buds , making her a great growing mate for the Medi bomb #1 which was also the same kind of stealth smelling weed. She is supposed to be ready in 3 weeks from now so the agressive PK feeding chart will start by the end of the week during 10 days ( 2 feeding at 2.0 Ec with my 6-20-31 NPK powder ✌️🏼🦎

Day 108 - This run is my Myth buster run : I always been told that the Jack strains were not the Easier to grow but it was an urban growers legend. This strain is easy to grow , easy to train , easy to manage , easy to feed ( She likes Nitrogen like a sativa. The old school growers will agreed that she have a "donkey dick" bud structure But less thin , the buds are gorgeous and covered with trichomes. So much trichomes that the buds looks almost white . The calyxes are like bubbles stuck together and the smell is discreet but on the citrus side.

Day 113 - It is the 1st day of the last week of flowering , I found a minor bud rot that I removed. The trichomes are mostly white and amber but some remains clear so I hope this last week will be enough for them to maturate. The smell is a bit less powerfull , I've seen that before and my 2 theories about that are 1st - The terpenes harvest window and the good trichomes ratio widow are not the same , so some weed need to be harvested earlier for a full aromatic terpenes profile. 2nd - The mineral PK boost feeding is killing the terpenes and leads to a weaker taste ( true with GHE ripper) The buds are wonderful 😍 a perfect sativa shape with big calyxes and the density is perfect : the buds are hard. ------- Day 116 - Finally the mold issue progression were fast so I had to cut her today , I hope that the smoke will nite have a harsh taste ! Enjoy the last pictures ✌️🏼🦎😁

Nice strain. I have a clone ready for flowering
