Watering volume per plant: 1l every 3-5 days 6 of them are 16-18 cm one is 26 cm Not sure yet if flipping to flowering this or next week, but prolly gonna go for 4 week of vegetation and eventually top the taller phenotype. Also, in front the 8 weeks old re-vegged Northern Light "bonsaï" clones. Gonna need to make another carton box if i want to keep them in veg next weeks, as all other box gonna be in 12/12. Week 3 Day 7: - experimenting topping with the taller phenotype.

Watering volume per plant: 1l every 2 / 2,5 days Very happy with how this session is going on 😃 The stretch is fine and it was really a good idea to top & topping the tallest phenotype in the back right corner, she's now growing with 8 homogenous branch with an ideal height. Saved each phenotypes last week, and the clones are doing well. WEEK 6 DAY 7: Did a fair amount of defoliation in the middle under the bulb with all 7 plants to help many buds location getting much better light exposition.

Last week: Flushing with PHed water only. Nirvana critical has the strongest smell, then come Zamnesia and Dinafem ones Nirvana: strong fruity and sweet smell Dinafem: normal citronella smell Zamnesia: weak fruity/flowery smell Zamnesia calyx are a little brown/purple Dinafem calyx are a little purple Nirvana and Dinafem had a very few males flower near the end. Definitely not my biggest harvest ever per plant, but well as emergency replacement small cup launched in the urge to fill tent's empty slots they performed pretty well.

Great strain, i really like it Smell is pretty strong once you reach mid-flowering. Same apply when opening storing jar. Taste is fruity(nearly tropical with agrume notes), flowery and sweet. High is perfect for late afternoon, evening and before going to sleep. As you can see the first 9 weeks (and afterward once relaunched with the two others) they grow evenly.

Well a bit sad i had to abort them on week 9 then restart only one plant as emergency replacement to fill tent's empty slots in unusual and non-optimal conditions ; but well in the end that last one performed honorably regarding the said conditions.

This strain is a very nice surprise as a freebie seed. Do not smell too much late in flowering. Smoke is real smooth, fruity(grapefruit notes), earthy and flowery. High is both energic and uplifted which fit most daily task or some relaxation in the couch.

Another nice freebie surprise. Smell's strength is average while flowering. Kinda like a citrus creampie when opening the jar. Smoke is real smooth and fresh, citrus(citronella more than citrus) is clearly dominant, then come cream and flowery hints undertone/aftertaste. High is really well balanced as described on the store page: "A balanced high that starts with a very pleasant cerebrally stimulating sensation and turns more relaxing as time passes by." 👌

Will she be like rqs 2 feet tall Sativa or is this a mix ?
HerbalEdu
HerbalEducommented6 years ago
@Black_Magic, according to Nirvana she supposed to be "short", time will tell always hard to say early on, and always a little bit worried about incoming stretch. but nirvana classify as "short" on their web site many strain like: "northern light" and "blackberry" and as you can see on my other recent diaries those two grow slighty differently gonna try 3 weeks of veg with this one and cross fingers things go well ^^

If i may ask, wich one of the Criticals was your favorite? Nirvana, Zamnesia or Dinafem? Would really appreciate your opinion.. The Dinafem is actually the Critical + right? Good luck 🍀 with your grow, keep it up! ✌️
