Sour Diesel harvested day 89 from seed. She was a strong seedling and there were really no issues with her. Ran the nutrients with my water at ~1200 EC, any higher and the tips of her leaves would burn and she was slightly more sensitive to EC then her tent mate. I attempted LST with her and I likely either removed a support or bumped a support that caused her to self-top at week 4, day 27. A happy little accident as it helped to keep her height in check at 86cm and did not inhibit her growth. She grew with sativa traits, good spacing between nodes, did not produce a bunch of leaves or get bushy, had good spacing between branches, robust stems, and had a strong tendency to want to grow up. Removed a few branches and defoliated day 48 & 51, then just defoliation as needed and she tolerated it well. Nothing slowed her growth. She had 7 main colas of similar height, several with sizable flowers, and multiple other flower sites. Top flowers are dense, sticky, covered in sparkly trichomes, with dark orange hairs everywhere and she smell amazing! Very easy to trim. Her fall colors are beautiful. *****217 grams dried***** 10 out of 10 score for ease of growing, smells, flower density and colors. Highly recommend this one and likely to grow again! 7-12-2024 - 2 week cure Oh my! Great sativa high, feel like doing activities, projects or going for a walk. Has a sour flavor and a bit of diesel. Just pulling out the jars causes a dank smell that you know is going to be good! 21-12-1024 - 4 week cure - Simply getting better, sour flavor and smell, just awesome!

Reviews. Nutrient
Works great! Roots were everywhere, top 5-10cm in coco was a nice mat of roots, then attached to the side of the 5 gallon fabric all the way to the bottom of the pot and out, roots!
Reviews. Lamp
One light for both veg and flower, flowers were covered in trichomes!
Reviews. Tent
Still in working order after 3 grows. I do wish it was 160cm in height, had a few more access points for cables, and cross bars to prevent the sucking in of the tent, overall it works.

Followed cocoforcannibas for flushing/cleaning coco this week. Harvesting took around 1 hour as there was not a lot of fan leaves to remove. Dried for 10 days ~60% with 21.5C.

Beautiful looking plants!😀👏🏽 They looks super healthy and the growth rate is perfect! Was looking at your dairy since day one, love your detailed explanation! We share similar grow style🏽 Was wondering how do you like the dualpart series form terra aquatica?, I use their tripart for some time now.. Wondering if it'll be easier to use the 2 part one Good luck and have fun growing brother 🌱

@1_Plant_Wonder, Thanks again for your kind works of support, much appreciated as a new grower. These two have been an amazing experice to date! I have used both the tri-part and dual part coco now on two grows; The 3 vs 2 bottles does simplify the process and I am likely to purchase the dual part coco again when these bottles run out. With my water and autos I run ~40% strength nutrients at ~1200 EC using the dual part coco. I had also considered the Canna line as they are also a two bottle setup and there are some examples of sucessful plants with Canna. Been following along with your Purple Punch as it is on the list to grow in the near future... Take care and enjoy the journey! 😎

Plants looking fantastic!👏🏽 Once most trichomes becomes cloudy, it won't be long before the amber starts to appear, and then flushing, so if you think you're a week /week and a half before that stage, start with final part;) (Usually terra recommend 10 days of final part before flushing, but with autos everything is faster, so a good week of final part will do to my opinion) But MY question is, would you continue using Calmag along with finalpart? Or not..? That I truly don't know😅 Good luck! 🍀

NamasteDavecommented2 months ago
@1_Plant_Wonder, I think the Sour Diesel is ~2wks from finishing based on other diaries with coco/ hydro/similar size. I was thinking FinalPart for 12 days and then 2 day FlashClean followed by ~ 2 days of water flush to run-off EC the # escapes me, but based on cocoforcannibas recommendations. Good question on the CalMag and FinalPart. Both plants have minor rust spots. TA on the Coco formulas suggest no additional CalMag is needed, and I think FinalPart would be the same. My experience is even buffered coco with a specific coco fertilizer formula still needs CalMag added to any water you use to dilute to get your EC. Now with FinalPart you are basically just feeding bloom nutrients. Would not adding CalMag block some other needed micro nutrient during the final 2 weeks of flower? I don't know, but someone on the forum would perhaps. For now since there is already some signs I was planning to add it to the next feritgation with any water used to dilute to EC. I was thinking I could always fade it over the next week or so. There are a few trichome pictures of SD at end of week 10. Mostly cloudy and some clear. I will grab some more photos with the USB microscope camera tomorrow. It is a challenge to get good photos..

@Hix57, Thank you for your kind words. I did not realize how large she was until I removed her tent mate! I need to invite my buddy over to help with the trimming.
