Critical Kush 600w 4x4 Tent

Celebrating the legalization of cannabis in Canada I decided to get a new set up. 600w HID, Digital/dimmable, full room control and amazing ventilation. He we grow!

Trying out Medi1. One part organic nutes, supposed to be good from seed to flower. My local shop really recommended this product. Starting to see great results day after feed. Topping each plant three times I'm going to try to make these beauties bush out.

For the first time ever, using feminized seeds I have found a male. I was topping the girls when I noticed the formation of a pollen sack. Quick to act, I gave it the axe. Then there were 2. I'm ok with just have two given the 4x4 space. I'll make it work. I noticed the girls asking for a bit more so I supplemented with Sensi Grow A+B.

Continuing to top my remaining two plants to take advantage of the space I have to work with. This will lead to an additional week of Veg. Good things come to those who wait. I took clones this week to prepare for my next round.

Last week of Veg. I installed my first screening to hold tops in place and have been very pleased with results. Have used all of my space and estimate now being the time to induce bloom. Preflowers are everywhere and starting to get pungent aromas when opening the tent. The shape and texture of my leaves are telling me typical indica dominant phenos.

Switching to bloom with an idea that this strain has neraly stretched 2.5x during the initial weeks of flowering. New lamp and new seals around all my ventilation. Things are going well. Lots of pruning under the canopy. I've trimmed and I've not trimmed in the past. I do find it best to take out the stuff underneath that would be draining nutrients and not completely contributing to the actual photosynthesis. Smell is continuing to become stronger.

Full on flowering has begun. I love to see a healthy plants reaction to induce flowering. The day to day changes that take place are mind blowing. Stretch has come into full effect. An additional mesh trellis will be necessary. Pungent aromas of kush woft about whenever opening the tent for maintenance. Using such big totes I'm going through a lot of H2O. Using RO I have to bring it in and watering at 20% @ 68L every three days is A LOT! I will be considering buying a filteration system for at home.

Having a Mg deficiency. Gonna say it's because of the RO water. Started to feed a little bit of Cal mag every water just to get some of those micro nutrients back in. Hairs are starting to pop up everywhere and that familiar kush aroma is beginning to arrive.

Mg deficiency got out of control a little bit. Flushed and trying to get things back on track. It's not hurting to much just really ugly. Feeding every water but at 1/4 volume every other watering seems to be helping. That being said I would say the stretch is over and she smells sooooo good. Hopefully she starts fattening up nice now.

Still working away to fix the nute deficiency I came into just after new years. Dense buds are still forming and calyx swell is beginning on original internodes. The sweet smell is like a brick wall when opening the tent. Keeping humidity down by opening a port on the side of my tent and adding an extra fan works well. This has been a great learning grow for me. I'm amazed the number of tops this strain has been able to produce. Next time I will be using air pots or something similar.

This is going to be a good yield. Dense buds covered in trichromes are filling the tent everywhere you look. I've been working with LEDs lately and have been finding some very interesting differences and similarities with the HID lighting the closer I get to harvest. I've just let this nute problem go as next week starts the fkush. I don't consider my self beat by this nute lockout in the sense that I'm very happy with what is coming out of this tent. Different containers next time 100% I am looking to find a high yield single cola strain I want to try and grow a few bowling pin sized nugs😎

These girls are packin! The most satisfying part of a grow for me is to see the fruits of my labour blossom into plump nuggets of dank joy! They are reacting to the flush in typical fashion. Phosphorus is running out of the fat indica fingers, creating a purple hue. The pheno on the left is a week ahead of the right side plant. At least. I could even see it going longer. Very excited for the range of effects in regards to sativa/indica ratio. A few amber trichromes here and there but the majority are developing a haze that will lead to the results seeking. Soon. We are almost there.

We are reaching full maturity slowly but surely. The pheno on the left is a solid week ahead of the one on the right. They are finishing quite differently. The left has reached full color showing yellows and purples about 12 days ago. Her velvety flowers a plump and juicy looking and remind me of a sour candy. The one on the right is showing signs from the flush but calyx swell and trichrome production has yet to peak. The smell is intense and even slightly different then the critical Kush I've experienced in the past. Pheno A will be harvested this week I'm guessing. Watching trichromes day to day at this point. I like just a bit of amber.

This shit is the bomb. I'm up to my elbows in high quality chronic and can't point out one negative. Great learning grow. Time for a change new things to come soon.
