Welcome to my Boom Run Diary 💣💥 I would like to thanks Bomb Seeds for sponsoring the Diary of the month in June and to give me the chance to try their genetics (wanted to since a long time). I'm popping 2 seeds for that run 🤞. ------ Song of the week : Jurassic 5 - What's Golden ------ Day 0 - 24.09 - The shell is open , roots are running out 🌱 ------- Day 1 - 26.09 - One plant is now in soil in a 0.25 L pot but the other one was attacked by a kind of worm 😲, look at my video it's weird! ------ Day 6 - She taaaaallll , she tried to reach the light and stretch a lot due to that. The Boom Run Continues In My Curent Medi Bomb#1 Diary 💣💥

Song of the week : Kid Cudi - Pursuit Of Happiness ft. MGMT ------- Day 14 - Watered today. She's not really changing and I'm afraid that this big stretch makes her a bit weak so I take care of her. Maybe a transplant will be done today, still wondering if it worth it because I could break her during the process , I take my time to figure out what to do.

Song of the week : Hopsin - Panorama City - feat. Joeytee ------- This week was about not breaking the main stem as the plant has stetch more than expected and more than regulary , I think she was too far from the light. It's one of the 1st time I get this king of "over stretch" and another way to get rid of it is to burry a part of the trunk but I don't try to do things that I don't control especially with a yong plant like that.

Song of the week : Ram Jam - Black Betty ------- Day 24 - I did not take good care of here as she grew tall at first and now she seems to be a bit slow 😒 so to help her I'm transplanting her in a 3L pot with a good soil just after writing these lines. I also think I'll top her to build a flat shape🤔. ✌️ ------- Day 26 - Today I transplant the plant to a 3L pot to give her more space for the roots , in 1 week I start to train her 😀

Song of the week : Konshens - Bruk off Yuh Back ------- Day 30 - She's better , the roots are settled so it will be time to put her in a 7L pot soon. She have a weird apex so I guess She's trying to talk to me 🤤 : "top me grown man" that's what she said 🤔😜😒 ok I'm out... ------- Day 32 - I finally decided to top her and to transplant her the same day. I hope the benefits on the canopy will be quick as I don't want to give her more than 2 more weeks of veg. -------- Day 34 - Pictures update under the 50w led ufo , she is well since the transplant 😍👍

Song of the week : Jason Derulo - Swalla ------- Day 38 - 02.11 - She needing to drink because the soil is dying pretty fast so she received 1.5L of water today. The topping had a positive influence on the shape as she's now pushing secondary stems bit I doubt she could be a real bush even with a long veg so she will soon go out. ------- Day 41 - Too much stretch in 3 days only due to a wrong distance from the light

Song of the week : Awolnation - Sail ------- Day 45 - The Cherry Bomb has stretched more than desire due to the fact that the light was too high. To limit her vertical grow and encourage the secondaries stems I did some HST like you can see in the picture. It is time to put her in flower but maybe I'll not transplant her to a bigger pot : we will see 😁👍 ------- Day 47 - Transplant to a 9.5L pot , you can see the root system on the pictures ✌️ Pictures will be updated later due to a bug on GD 😒😋

Day 54 - 18.11 - Each hst only least 5 day max so I had to do another one this morning. I just bend the stems at the exact same spot of the previous bending. No feeding for now as the last repoting soil had plenty for this week , next week she'll get feed

Song of the week : ------- Day 57 - This week starts with a bit of Hst for the shape and some leaves knitting for a better light penetration . By the way I made a video to show you how to knit your leaves instead of cutting them cuz I'm not a defoliation enthusiast. The stretch is good but this grow is a bit chaotic since I had an unexpected stretch during the veg This week will also be the feeding week 😁👍 ------- Day 63 - Last day of the week , the shape is now built and the flowering will come soon ( I hope ) She received nutrients this week with 1.5ec of Mega crop and as she seems to like it she will 'receive some more today 😁

09.12 - She was feed with Mega crop at 1.5Ec but the rain fold hard so the soil has been wash from a part of the nutrients. This week I will increase the Ec to 1.8 and switch to Greenhouse feeding. The flowering is a bit long to fully on but I put it on the fact that she's in the shade half of the day and I still can't put in my sunny spot because it actually full with my others plants , in about one week I will switch her with my Gorilla Girl to give her more light so a better production.

16.12 - She is exactly like me : she takes her time and she like to delay what she's supposed to do. Looks healthy but a bit slow so I gave her a tea spoon of Mr.B's Bloom mixed in the soil ✌️🏼😁

You must have noticed that this plant is not really the one that have all my attention , It's not because of the strain itself or due to a lack of time 🤗 I just let her do her stuff. As you can see on the pictures she is a good trichomes producers. She have a nice bushy shape that I took time to built. The smell is discreet but sweet. I've miss many feeding along that run and as consequences she don't swell as quick as expected and she had various deficiencies. I will try to fix it during the next days and I will also start to increase the PK level

This week I have nothing special to report. The bud aren't swelling anymore , just the calyxes seems to get a bit bigger but really hard to tell as she mostly seems to remain the same. The smell is starting to be more on the cherry side than the past weeks : This is a good news because I was starting to think that this plant wasn't a cherry phenotype , however I'm convinced that another phenotype can be found in the bat h of seeds I have. She's actually not feed anymore, only water till harvest. Yield prognostic : I hate yield prognostic BUT I'm playing that game today and expect something close from 30g dry maybe 40 but I'm doubting.

Song of the week : City Girls - Twerk ft. Cardi B -------- Day 110 - 13.01 - The flush is bringing some new flavours and I can now smell some cherry 😥 and to be honest It is the 1st time that she's smelling fruity. The shape is beautiful and even if this phenotype is really not a big buds producer it produce nice buds with big calyxes. She might be ready by the end of next week 😄 Day 112 - Pictures Update 😚

Week 17. Harvest

Happy Harvest Day!

This cherry bomb is clearly the type of weed I like to grow and smoke. This strain could have grown tall as I practice a lot of HST and she still ended with a nice height. Very resilient to the HST, that method brings a lot of the secondaries just a bit under the main canopy and is producing a lot of mid sized but compact buds. The buds are hard like rocks before and after drying , they appear small but are really heavy , 70g of cherry bomb looks like 50g of Fruity Jack in terms of volume. She is not requesting a lot of fertilizer to easily thrive and that's perfect because I rarely get higher than 1.8 Ec in late flowering. During flowering the smell is very discreet and you will start to smell some cherry at the very end of flowering. ------------------------------ THE SMOKE TEST ------------------------------ After a fat spliff I would have called her the Cherry Kush but I believe the name is already dedicated to an other available strain. The Smoke is clearly hearty, I even wanna say that it taste like hash 😍 hash & a hint of cherry but after a bit of curing it's nor more a cherry hint but more like a lightly sugary one , very pleasant and raw at the time, nothing complex but a clear taste ✌️🏼👍 The easiest I had to describe since I am on GD The potency I'm like a Thor hammer slap : good night 😂 clearly an indica stone but I have a lot of amber trichomes which are reinforcing the " go to bed " effect An easy to grow strain , resilient , tasty and potent , what else ?...

That grow was pretty funny, I did a lot of HST which is not really my favourite method to train a plant but was berry effective this time , the final yield is better than my Medi Bomb#1 and that one was looking way bigger. Potent and tasty - I recommend it to the hash lovers and why not for extractions 😄👊🌱🍃 EDIT : - 26 of February 2019 - The taste is now close to a good hash mixed with Kush 👍✌️🏼😀 I like the taste after curing of that one

@jjmed88, Sorry for the late answer ! I veg the plant during 7 weeks under 110 to 150 FL and Led lights and I did too her once then I just practiced some hst on the branches ( take a look at the pictures the branches , I am bending until they break a bit) 😊✌️🏼
