Hi, I've started a new diary featuring one of RQS's finest strains, Tatanka Pure CBD. This flower is low in THC but high in CBD, making it perfect for unwinding after a stressful day and promoting restful sleep at night. As usual, I'm not using any nutrients throughout the entire growth cycle. I've opted for a pre-mixed super soil mix at the bottom of the pot and Biobizz all-mixed soil on top. The seed, which had been stored in the fridge for over a year, germinated without any issues. Everything seems to be going smoothly so far. Let the growing journey begin! I'll need plenty of patience. Together, let's make our world a greener place.💨✌️

One week has already passed without any issues. However, what potential impacts might arise if the process is just starting? Day 10. For watering, I use clear tap water that is oxygenated, as this is believed to enhance its quality. During the dark period, I sprayed the flower with a water mixture containing one-quarter a teaspoon of Epsom salt per one litre. I will continue this process until the flower begins to bloom. Day 13. I've continued to water the plant with clear, pH-balanced tap water. The light intensity at the closest point from the lamp to the flower is 305 μmol/m²/s. The flower is developing nicely, and there haven't been any other changes to report. See you next week.

Day 22. As I previously mentioned, I grow plant in my own mixed super soil blend. The bottom third of the pot is filled with super soil, and the top two-thirds are filled with Biobizz All-Mix soil. As I've observed, the Biobizz All-Mix is performing well so far. There's no need to use extra nutrients yet. Avoiding the use of any nutrients to promote maximum organic flower growth. I've continued to water the plants with clear, pH-balanced tap water. The pH level of the runoff water is 6.6. The temperature of the runoff water is 22°C. The flower is progressing well, with no other updates. Day 25. I've continued to water the plant with clear, pH-balanced tap water. The flower is progressing well, with no other updates. Day 26. During crown shaping on Day 26, I accidentally broke a branch. To stimulate the growth of new shoots from dormant buds, I shortened the damaged branch by half, leaving the laterals intact. Day 28. In this watering experiment, I am investigating the effects of carbonated water on root growth in a plant growing in a nutrient-rich substrate. I hypothesize that the dissolved carbon dioxide in the carbonated water will enhance root development. Potential Benefits: Increased CO2 uptake: The carbon dioxide in carbonated water can be absorbed by the roots, potentially boosting photosynthesis and growth. Improved nutrient absorption: The acidity of carbonated water can increase the availability of certain nutrients in the soil, making them more readily absorbed by the plant. Enhanced root growth: Some studies suggest that carbonated water can stimulate root growth, leading to a healthier and more robust plant. Potential Risks: Root shock: The sudden change in pH caused by carbonated water can shock the roots, potentially leading to nutrient deficiencies or even root death. Nutrient imbalances: The increased acidity of carbonated water can disrupt the delicate balance of nutrients in the soil, potentially leading to nutrient deficiencies or toxicities. Reduced microbial activity: The acidity of carbonated water can inhibit the growth of beneficial microorganisms in the soil, which are essential for healthy plant growth. The structure of the topsoil has become looser after watering with carbonated water, possibly due to the effect of gas bubbles separating the soil particles. The pH level of the sparkling water is 5.3. The temperature of the sparkling water is 22°C. The pH level of the runoff water is 6.8. The temperature of the runoff water is 21°C. The temperature of the dark/light time is 20.3/25.2°C. The humidity level of the dark/light time is 58/41% The light intensity at the closest point from the lamp to the flower is 320 μmol/m²/s.

As I've observed, the Biobizz All-Mix is performing well so far. There's no need to use extra nutrients yet. Avoiding the use of any nutrients to promote maximum organic flower growth. I've continued to water the plants with clear, pH-balanced tap water. The pH level of the water is 6.1. The temperature of the water is 22°C. The temperature of the dark/light time is 21.2/27.5 °C. The humidity level of the dark/light time is 59/44% The light intensity at the closest point from the lamp to the flower is 360 μmol/m²/s. During the dark period, I sprayed the flower with a water mixture containing one-quarter a teaspoon of Epsom salt per one litre. I will continue this process until the flower begins to bloom. The flower is progressing well, with no other updates. Day 38. I've continued to water the plants with clear, pH-balanced tap water. The pH level of the water is 6.1. The temperature of the water is 22°C. The temperature of the dark/light time is 21.2/24.4 °C. The humidity level of the dark/light time is 57/50% The light intensity at the closest point from the lamp to the flower is 375 μmol/m²/s. The flower is progressing well, with no other updates. Day 40. The photoperiod is being adjusted from 18 hours of light and 6 hours of darkness to a 12-hour light and 12-hour dark cycle, thereby initiating the induction of flowering. I've continued to water the plants with clear, pH-balanced tap water. The pH level of the water is 6.1. The temperature of the water is 22°C. The temperature of the dark/light time is 21.3/26.2 °C. The humidity level of the dark/light time is 57/46% The light intensity at the closest point from the lamp to the flower is 355 μmol/m²/s. To optimise light distribution within the grow tent and encourage more uniform lateral branching, the Screen of Green (ScrOG) was adjusted. The flower is progressing well, with no other updates. Day 42. This experiment aims to investigate the effect of carbonated water on root growth in a plant cultivated in a nutrient-rich substrate. This constitutes the second observation within this experimental record. The hypothesis posits that dissolved carbon dioxide within the carbonated water will stimulate enhanced root development. Potential Benefits: Enhanced CO2 Availability: The dissolved carbon dioxide within the carbonated water may be absorbed by the root system, potentially stimulating photosynthesis and subsequently enhancing overall plant growth. Increased Nutrient Solubility: The acidic nature of carbonated water can potentially increase the solubility of certain soil-bound nutrients, making them more readily available for plant uptake. Stimulated Root Development: Some research suggests that the presence of dissolved carbon dioxide in the root zone may stimulate root elongation and branching, leading to improved root system architecture. Potential Risks: Abrupt pH Change: The sudden decrease in soil pH resulting from carbonated water irrigation may induce root shock, potentially leading to nutrient imbalances, nutrient deficiencies, and in severe cases, root tissue damage. Disrupted Nutrient Balance: The increased acidity can alter the availability of essential nutrients, potentially leading to nutrient deficiencies or toxicities due to an imbalance in nutrient uptake. Inhibition of Beneficial Microorganisms: The acidic environment created by carbonated water may inhibit the growth and activity of beneficial soil microorganisms, such as mycorrhizae, which play crucial roles in nutrient acquisition and plant health. Observations: A decrease in soil compaction was observed in the topsoil following irrigation with carbonated water, potentially attributable to the disruptive effect of escaping carbon dioxide gas on soil particle aggregation. The pH level of the sparkling water is 5.3. The temperature of the sparkling water is 22°C. The temperature of the dark/light time is 22.8/25.5°C. The humidity level of the dark/light time is 59/52% The light intensity at the closest point from the lamp to the flower is 445 μmol/m²/s. The flower is thriving, nothing else to mention.

Day 44. As mentioned earlier, I cultivate plant in my own custom-blended super soil. The lower third of the pot is filled with this super soil, while the upper two-thirds are filled with Biobizz All-Mix. My observations indicate that the Biobizz All-Mix is currently performing well. The plant appear to be thriving without the addition of any supplemental nutrients at this stage. I'm aiming to maximize organic flower growth by avoiding the use of any additional nutrients. Despite previous irrigation with carbonated water, the plant continues to exhibit vegetative growth without displaying any visible stress symptoms, such as leaf chlorosis, wilting, or cessation of growth. I've continued to water the plants with clear, pH-balanced tap water. The pH level of the water is 6.1. The temperature of the water is 22°C. The pH level of the runoff water is 6.6. The temperature of the runoff water is 20°C. The temperature of the dark/light time is 20.8/24.4 °C.

Day 50. I'm currently growing my plant in a unique soil blend. The bottom portion of the pot is filled with my custom-made super soil, while the top two-thirds contain Biobizz All-Mix. So far, the Biobizz All-Mix seems to be providing excellent results. The plant is flourishing without the need for any extra nutrients at this point. My goal is to achieve the largest possible organic flower yield by refraining from adding any additional nutrients. During the dark cycle, I applied a foliar spray containing one-quarter teaspoon of Epsom salt per litre of water. This treatment will continue until the onset of flowering. I've continued to water the plants with clear, pH-balanced tap water. The pH level of the water is 6.9. The temperature of the water is 19°C. The temperature of the dark/light time is 21/25°C. The humidity level of the dark/light time is 65/59% The light intensity at the closest point from the lamp to the flower is 605 μmol/m²/s. The flower's doing great, and that's about it. Day 52. I've continued to water the plants with clear, pH-balanced tap water. The pH level of the water is 6.2. The temperature of the water is 22°C. The temperature of the dark/light time is 21/26.3°C. The humidity level of the dark/light time is 65/59% The light intensity at the closest point from the lamp to the flower is 630 μmol/m²/s. The flower's doing great, and that's about it. Elevated water temperatures may be associated with a reduction in water pH. The flower is exhibiting healthy growth, with no further developments to report. Day 54. The plant has initiated flowering and developed 15 inflorescences. Due to the formation of cannabis flower buds, I ceased using the air-water mist sprayer. Continuous water spraying on cannabis plants during the flowering stage can have several negative consequences: Increased Risk of Mold and Mildew: High humidity created by frequent spraying can provide an ideal environment for the growth of harmful molds and mildews, such as powdery mildew and bud rot. These fungal infections can severely damage the flowers, reducing yield and potentially contaminating the final product. Reduced Trichome Production: Trichomes are tiny, resinous glands on the surface of cannabis flowers that contain cannabinoids like THC and CBD. Excessive moisture can hinder trichome development, leading to a less potent harvest. Stunted Growth: Constant moisture on the plant's surface can disrupt the delicate balance of gas exchange, potentially inhibiting proper growth and development. Attracting Pests: High humidity can attract certain pests, such as fungus gnats and mites, which can further damage the plants. I've continued to water the plants with clear, pH-balanced tap water. The pH level of the water is 6.2. The temperature of the water is 22°C. The temperature of the dark/light time is 22/26.5°C. The humidity level of the dark/light time is 65/59% The light intensity at the closest point from the lamp to the flower is 660 μmol/m²/s. New leaves are turning pale, which means they're getting too much light. Move the light farther away from the plants to protect them and prevent damage. The flower's doing great, and that's about it. Day 56. This day outlines the third observation in an ongoing experiment investigating the impact of carbonated water on the root growth of a plant cultivated in a nutrient-rich substrate. The central hypothesis is that the dissolved carbon dioxide within carbonated water will stimulate enhanced root development. Potential Benefits: Enhanced CO2 Availability: The dissolved CO2 in carbonated water may be directly absorbed by the roots, potentially boosting photosynthesis and overall plant growth. Increased Nutrient Solubility: The acidic nature of carbonated water could increase the solubility of certain soil-bound nutrients, making them more readily available for plant uptake. Stimulated Root Development: Research suggests that dissolved CO2 in the root zone may stimulate root elongation and branching, leading to improved root system architecture. Potential Risks: Abrupt pH Change: Sudden soil pH reduction due to carbonated water irrigation may induce root shock, potentially causing nutrient imbalances, deficiencies, and in severe cases, root tissue damage. Disrupted Nutrient Balance: Increased acidity can alter nutrient availability, potentially leading to deficiencies or toxicities due to imbalanced nutrient uptake. Inhibition of Beneficial Microorganisms: The acidic environment created by carbonated water may inhibit the growth and activity of beneficial soil microorganisms, such as mycorrhizae, crucial for nutrient acquisition and plant health. Observations: A notable decrease in soil compaction was observed in the topsoil following irrigation with carbonated water. This may be attributed to the disruptive effect of escaping carbon dioxide gas on soil particle aggregation. The pH level of the sparkling water is 5.3. The temperature of the sparkling water is 21°C. The temperature of the dark/light time is 21.3/25.8 °C. The humidity level of the dark/light time is 64/59% The light intensity at the closest point from the lamp to the flower is 600 μmol/m²/s. Upon observation, the flower demonstrates continued healthy growth with no further developments to report.

Day 58. The flower continues to develop well and keeps growing taller, but from my previous experience, the flower should soon stop elongating. All available energy should then be redirected towards bud development. Irrigation of the plants has continued using clear, pH-balanced tap water. The pH level of the water is 6.2. The temperature of the water is 22°C. The temperature of the dark/light time is 21/24.6°C. The humidity level of the dark/light time is 57/66% The light intensity at the closest point from the lamp to the flower is 645 μmol/m²/s. Upon observation, the flower exhibits continued healthy growth with no further noteworthy developments. Day 60. As noted, my plant resides in a custom-blended super soil mix. This super soil occupies the lower third of the container, while Biobizz All-Mix fills the remaining two-thirds. Current observations suggest that Biobizz All-Mix is providing adequate nutrition. The plant exhibits vigorous growth without the need for supplementary feeding at this juncture. My objective is to cultivate organically bountiful flowers by abstaining from the introduction of any additional nutrients. I've continued to water the plants with clear, pH-balanced tap water. The pH level of the water is 6.2. The temperature of the water is 22°C. The temperature of the dark/light time is 20/26.5°C. The humidity level of the dark/light time is 66/53% The light intensity at the closest point from the lamp to the flower is 650 μmol/m²/s. The flower's development is proceeding favourably, with no other noteworthy changes. Day 62. I've continued to water the plants with clear, pH-balanced tap water. The pH level of the water is 6.2. The temperature of the water is 22°C. The temperature of the dark/light time is 20/27°C. The humidity level of the dark/light time is 59/51% The light intensity at the closest point from the lamp to the flower is 670 μmol/m²/s. The flower's doing great, and that's about it.

Day 64. As I mentioned, my plant is in a special soil mix that I made myself. It’s in the bottom third of the pot, and the rest is filled with Biobizz All-Mix. So far, it seems like my own super soil mix and Biobizz All-Mix are giving my plant everything it needs. It’s growing really well and doesn’t need any extra food right now. I’m trying to grow the most beautiful flowers organically, so I’m not adding any extra nutrients. I’ve been watering the plants with clear, pH-balanced tap water. The pH level of the water is 6.2. The temperature of the water is 22°C. The temperature of the dark/light time is 20.6/27°C. The humidity level of the dark/light time is 61/49% The light intensity at the closest point from the lamp to the flower is 680 μmol/m²/s. The flower’s doing splendidly, and that’s all the exciting news I have for you! Day 66. I’ve been giving my plants a nice drink of clear, pH-balanced tap water. The pH level of the water is 6.3. The temperature of the water is 19°C. The temperature of the dark/light time is 23/27°C. The humidity level of the dark/light time is 61/50% The light intensity at the closest point from the lamp to the flower is 710 μmol/m²/s. The flower is thriving, and that’s all the exciting news I have for you! Day 68. I’ve been giving my plants a refreshing bath of clear, pH-balanced tap water. The pH level of the water is 6.3. The temperature of the water is 19°C. The temperature of the dark/light time is 23/27°C. The humidity level of the dark/light time is 58/49% The flower is doing great, and that’s all the exciting news I have for you! Day 70. This is the fourth entry in an ongoing investigation into how carbonated water affects the growth of a plant in a nutrient-rich soil. The main idea is that the carbon dioxide in carbonated water will make the roots grow faster. Here are some possible benefits: More Carbon Dioxide: Carbonated water might let the roots take in more carbon dioxide directly, which could help the plant make more food and stay healthy. Easier Nutrients to Get: Carbonated water is a bit acidic, which might make it easier for the plant to get certain nutrients from the soil. Stronger Roots: Research shows that carbon dioxide in the soil can make the roots grow longer and branch out more, which could make the root system stronger. But there are also some possible drawbacks: Sudden pH Change: If you water the plant with carbonated water, the soil pH might drop too quickly, which could shock the roots and make it hard for the plant to get the right nutrients. Imbalanced Nutrients: The acidity in carbonated water might make it harder for the plant to get the right mix of nutrients, which could lead to deficiencies or even damage the roots. Bad Bacteria: Carbonated water might kill off good bacteria in the soil, which are important for getting nutrients and keeping the plant healthy. Here’s what we’ve seen so far: The topsoil got less compacted after we watered the plant with carbonated water. This might be because the carbon dioxide gas in the water broke up the soil particles. The pH level of the sparkling water is 5.8. The temperature of the sparkling water is 22°C. The temperature of the dark/light time is 22/26°C. The humidity level of the dark/light time is 61/50% The flower’s growing like crazy, nothing else to report!

It sheds its leaves all by itself, no need to chop them. It’s especially cool when you grow it in a super organic environment. The flower’s doing great, nothing else to report. Day 80. I’ve been giving my plants a drink of the finest tap water around. The pH level of the water is 6.2. The temperature of the water is 22°C. The temperature of the dark/light time is 22/26°C. The humidity level of the dark/light time is 58/50% The flower is thriving, and that’s all the exciting news I have for now! Day 82. I’ve been giving my plants a sip of the best tap water in town. The pH level of the water is 6.1. The temperature of the water is 21°C. The temperature of the dark/light time is 23/27°C. The humidity level of the dark/light time is 51/50% Plagron Bat Guano is an awesome organic fertiliser with a perfect balance of phosphorus and potassium, which will be super helpful during the flowering phase. Now, all that’s left is to sprinkle it on the soil and watch the plant go crazy! I’ve sprinkled a tablespoon on the soil. That’s a fantastic idea! The flower’s doing great, nothing else to report! Day 84. This is the fifth instalment in an ongoing investigation into how carbonated water affects the growth of a plant in nutrient-rich soil. The main idea is that the carbon dioxide in carbonated water will make the roots grow faster. Here are some possible benefits: More Carbon Dioxide: Carbonated water might allow the roots to absorb more carbon dioxide directly, which could help the plant produce more food and stay healthy. Easier Nutrients to Get: Carbonated water is slightly acidic, which might make it easier for the plant to extract certain nutrients from the soil. Stronger Roots: Research suggests that carbon dioxide in the soil can make the roots grow longer and branch out more, which could strengthen the root system. However, there are also some potential drawbacks: Sudden pH Change: If you water the plant with carbonated water, the soil pH might drop too quickly, which could shock the roots and make it difficult for the plant to obtain the right nutrients. Imbalanced Nutrients: The acidity in carbonated water might make it harder for the plant to obtain the correct mix of nutrients, which could lead to deficiencies or even damage the roots. Bad Bacteria: Carbonated water might kill off beneficial bacteria in the soil, which are crucial for obtaining nutrients and maintaining the plant’s health. Here’s what we’ve observed so far: The topsoil became less compacted after we watered the plant with carbonated water. This might be because the carbon dioxide gas in the water broke down the soil particles. I’ve been giving my plants a little drink of the finest tap water in town. The pH level of the water is 6.1.

I’ve been giving my plants a little drink of the finest tap water in town. The pH level of the water is 6.1. The temperature of the water is 21°C. The temperature of the dark/light time is 22/26°C. The humidity level of the dark/light time is 59/50% I have dimmed the lights to 450 μmol/m²/s because the harvest season is approaching. Why Reduce Light Intensity in the Final Stage? It’s like a secret trick for plants! Lowering the light intensity encourages the trichomes to grow, which are like little hairs on the plant’s surface. These trichomes produce resin, which is like the plant’s way of defending itself. But that’s not all! Reducing the light intensity also helps the plant relax. It’s like giving it a break from all that hard work of photosynthesis. Instead, it focuses on maturing and getting ready for the next stage. And guess what? Lowering the light intensity can also help keep the temperature down. This is important because terpenes, which are like the plant’s flavour compounds, can break down when it’s too hot. So, by keeping the temperature cool, you can make sure that the terpenes stay intact and the flavour stays fresh. The flower is thriving, and that’s all the exciting news I have for now! Day 98.

Day 107. The plant is approaching harvest time, but the trichomes are not yet fully mature, indicating that a few more days, or possibly a week, will be needed to reach optimal ripeness. The buds are well-developed, dense, and coated in resin, but the trichomes still exhibit some translucency, suggesting that peak potency has not yet been achieved. Overall, the plant’s condition is good, and the yellowing of the leaves is a normal occurrence at this stage, as the plant is drawing stored nutrients to support bud development. It’s important to note that this plant has been grown exclusively in super soil throughout its entire cycle, with no additional fertilizers or liquid nutrients – only balanced water. This demonstrates that a well-prepared soil mix can sustain the plant with a steady nutrient supply throughout its growth cycle. Light intensity has been maintained at an optimal level, and the SCROG (Screen of Green) technique has helped create an even canopy, maximizing light exposure and ensuring proper airflow around the buds. At this stage, I will continue monitoring the trichome development, and as soon as the majority turn cloudy with a slight amber hue, it will be time for harvest. Until then, I will maintain stable humidity and ventilation to ensure the best possible conditions in these final days. I’ve been treating my plants to a refreshing sip of the finest tap water around, ensuring they stay well-hydrated and happy. The water’s pH level is a balanced 6.1, and it’s served at a comfortable 20°C, providing optimal conditions for absorption. Throughout the dark and light cycles, the temperature remains stable at 21°C and 26°C, while humidity is maintained at 56% during darkness and 50% in the light, creating a well-regulated environment for the final stage of growth. With the harvest season approaching, I’ve dimmed the lights to 450 μmol/m²/s, gently guiding the plant toward its finishing phase. The flowers are flourishing beautifully, and for now, that’s the most exciting update—nature’s rhythm unfolding just as it should! Day 110. The plants are steadily approaching harvest, with some trichomes beginning to turn amber, indicating that the ripening process is well underway. However, the majority remain cloudy, meaning it’s still not quite time for harvest—a little more patience will ensure peak potency. I continue to water with 3L of pH-balanced water, maintaining optimal hydration without overloading the roots. Tent humidity has been kept below 50%, ensuring a dry enough environment to prevent mold while allowing the flowers to mature in controlled conditions. The yellowing leaves are progressing naturally, as the plants draw the last remaining nutrients from them. The buds are dense and resinous, showing promising development. Over the next few days, I will closely monitor trichome coloration—once the amber ratio increases to the desired level, it will be time for the final step. For now, it’s a waiting game, but watching the plants reach their peak is a rewarding process in itself. Each day brings a small but meaningful change, and soon enough, the moment will arrive!

Day 113. The plants are almost ready for harvest! Some of the trichomes are turning amber, which means they’re getting ripe. But most of them are still cloudy, so we need to wait a bit longer. If we wait a bit longer, the plants will be even more potent. I’m still watering them with 3L of pH-balanced water. I’m keeping the humidity below 50% to prevent mould. I’m also keeping the temperature in the tent at a comfortable level. This way, the plants can grow and mature without any problems. The yellowing leaves are doing their thing, as the plants take the last bits of food from them. The buds are packed and sticky, which is a good sign. I’ll keep a close eye on the trichome colour over the next few days—once the amber ratio gets to the right level, it’s time for the final step. For now, it’s just a waiting game, but watching the plants grow is still pretty cool. Each day brings a little bit of change, and soon enough, the big moment will come! Day 116. The plants are steadily ripening and reaching their final stage, with buds now fully developed and swelling. The trichomes are showing a mix of cloudy and amber hues, signaling that the harvest window is approaching. However, a little more patience is required to ensure the best possible maturity for optimal cannabinoid and terpene profiles. The leaves continue to fade, which is expected at this stage, as the plant redirects all its energy into the flowers. The buds have thickened significantly, covered in a dense layer of resin, and their aroma has deepened, hinting at the potency to come. Tent conditions remain well-controlled, with humidity staying below 50%, ensuring a safe environment for the final stretch. Watering is continued with 3L of pH-balanced water, keeping the roots hydrated while preventing any excess moisture. At this point, I will closely monitor trichome development over the next few days, waiting for just the right balance of amber before making the final call for harvest. Watching this cycle come to an end is both exciting and rewarding—soon, the effort of these past months will be fully realized! Day 119. Today marks a significant milestone – the final watering of this beautiful grow cycle. The plants received their last drink of pH-balanced water, and now, the countdown to harvest truly begins. After 119 days of dedication, the journey is nearing its end, and in just a few more days, the scissors will come out, and the reward for months of patience and care will be realised. The buds are fully swollen, coated with a thick layer of shimmering trichomes. A closer look reveals a well-balanced mix of cloudy and amber trichomes, indicating that peak maturity is just around the corner. Their structure is impressively dense and resinous, with striking colour contrasts – rich orange pistils, darkened calyxes, and fading sugar leaves – a visual cue that they are ready to be finished. Throughout this cycle, the plants have been grown exclusively in super soil, without the use of additional bottled nutrients. Their robust development stands as a testament to the power of a well-prepared living soil system. The fading fan leaves show natural senescence, as the plant uses up its final reserves, focusing entirely on ripening the flowers. Humidity in the tent has been kept steady under 50%, and lighting remains soft and controlled, allowing the buds to mature under calm, stable conditions. The canopy is well-exposed thanks to earlier training, and airflow remains excellent – no signs of bud rot or stress. This grow has been a slow and steady marathon rather than a sprint. As the plants now enter their final dry phase before harvest, I feel a deep sense of appreciation for the process. From seed to this moment, they have flourished – and soon, it will be time to reap what was sown. Next stop: harvest!

Day 122. We’re now at Day 122, and the plants are entering their final stretch with remarkable presence. The colas are thick, resinous, and truly impressive in size and structure. Visual signs of maturity are everywhere – pistils are mostly curled in and darkened, the buds are compact and glistening, and there’s a noticeable purple and gold tint on the upper foliage, adding a beautiful finish to this cycle. Upon inspecting the trichomes, only a few are turning amber, while the majority remain cloudy. This indicates that the plants are in their peak ripening window, and the decision to harvest will depend on the desired effect: • More cloudy trichomes = a clearer, more uplifting experience • More amber trichomes = a more sedative, body-relaxing result Given the current state, I’d recommend waiting just a little longer—possibly 2 to 3 days—to allow for a few more trichomes to amber up. This patience will pay off in potency, flavour, and effect. The flowers are certainly ready in terms of density and terpene richness, so we are now balancing optimal potency with desired cannabinoid profile. The tent remains stable, with excellent light penetration, low humidity, and healthy airflow. The natural fade continues, which is perfectly expected at this late stage. In summary: • Plants are fully ripe in form and structure • Trichomes are still slightly early for a full-spectrum harvest • Recommendation: Wait a few more days for amber trichome development The finish line is in sight – and these final decisions will define the outcome of an already beautiful grow. Day 125. After a dedicated 125-day journey, the time has finally come to harvest these magnificent Tatanka Pure CBD plants. Grown from high-quality Royal Queen Seeds, this strain has lived up to its reputation, offering vigorous growth, resilient structure, and abundant flower production. From seedling to final flush, every step of this grow has been a testament to the strength of this genetics. The entire cycle was nurtured with a super soil mix, which provided all the necessary nutrients without the need for additional fertilisers. This organic approach has not only supported robust growth but also enhanced the natural terpenes and cannabinoid profile, ensuring a pure and potent yield. The buds are absolutely impressive—thick, dense, and covered in a rich coat of trichomes. Their colouration is beautiful, with hues of dark greens, purples, and gold, displaying a stunning contrast against the remaining foliage. The scent is strong and inviting, with earthy, sweet, and herbal notes dominating the aroma. The trichomes are now predominantly cloudy, with a good amount of amber trichomes scattered throughout, signalling that the plants have reached their peak maturity. This is the ideal time to harvest, ensuring a high CBD yield with the desired relaxing and therapeutic effects. What truly stands out is the performance of Tatanka Pure CBD. Royal Queen Seeds has once again delivered a stellar strain, proving itself as a trusted seed distributor for growers seeking quality and consistency. This grow has been a remarkable experience, and I am excited to see how the final product will turn out after drying and curing. Reflection: This journey has been deeply rewarding. The decision to use super soil was absolutely the right choice, as it allowed the plants to thrive with minimal intervention. The dedication to maintaining optimal conditions throughout the grow paid off, resulting in an abundant, healthy harvest. Now, as the plants are carefully trimmed and prepared for drying, I feel a great sense of accomplishment. This harvest is a celebration of patience, knowledge, and quality genetics. Looking forward to the next stage—drying, curing, and ultimately, enjoying the pure CBD goodness of Tatanka Pure CBD. Cheers to another successful grow!

Day 131. Post-Harvest Report & Review After a steady 9-day drying process, I have successfully obtained a total of 79 grams of high-quality buds from my Tatanka Pure CBD grow. The buds are dense, resinous, and perfectly cured – all ready to be transformed into CBD oil. This entire grow was powered by Royal Queen Seeds’ Tatanka Pure CBD, and I must say, they’ve delivered yet another outstanding strain. The genetics are exceptional, providing a rich cannabinoid profile and earthy aroma that’s both pleasant and robust. This strain truly shines for anyone seeking pure CBD benefits without psychoactive effects. It’s worth noting that the shelf life of cannabis can vary depending on several factors, including growing method, storage conditions, and strain. However, in general, cannabis grown in soil tends to have a longer shelf life than cannabis grown hydroponically or aeroponically. Here’s a general breakdown of estimated shelf life for each growing method: Soil-grown cannabis: 6–12 months or longer Hydroponic cannabis: 3–6 months Aeroponic cannabis: 2–4 months These estimates highlight yet another advantage of growing Tatanka Pure CBD in super soil. Proper storage is essential to preserve both quality and potency. I plan to store the buds in glass jars, in a cool, dark, and dry place, ensuring their freshness and effectiveness are maintained for the long term. Review: The final product of Tatanka Pure CBD offers a delightfully earthy flavour, true to its genetics. I find it perfect for evenings – it helps me relax and unwind after a long day without making me feel drowsy. Surprisingly, it’s also excellent for daytime use, providing a calming focus that supports productivity without any impairment. Royal Queen Seeds have certainly proven themselves once again. This strain has been a pleasure to grow, harvest, and now enjoy. Highly recommended for anyone seeking pure CBD relief and relaxation. Now, it’s time to begin the CBD oil extraction process and fully appreciate the fruits of this rewarding journey!
