McBubatz 6th week, the Meth is growing great, training is a bit of a thing with her, she has branches as strong as bodybuilders 💪, but just take a look at the photos, I took some pictures of the branches after training and they're just going straight up 😅, which is also the reason why she takes up less space than the others but is currently the tallest.

McBubatz 8th week, the Meth is growing nicely, unlike the other two strains in the tent which are more slender and growing upwards even after topping and LST. I defoliated yesterday, lollipopped, and removed a few shoots.

McBubatz 9th week, Meth is doing well, unfortunately, the strong shoots didn't work out so optimally with the training, the lower buds aren't getting much light, I'll probably have to harvest in stages here, well, let's see, otherwise she looks very healthy, grows nicely, and isn't causing any trouble at all 👌.

McBubatz 10th week, Meth is doing well, I forgot to take individual pictures of the plant in the hustle, it's the one in the back right, I'll take more pictures of the Meth alone tomorrow 😅. Otherwise, I'm now reducing N and focusing on PK. The smell of the Meth is very lemony/lime with a good amount of gas, which I haven't experienced so intensely before, I'm curious to see how the final product turns out.

McBubatz 13th week, Meth is doing well, looks good so far but needs a bit more time, like the Ice Cream Haze, I think it will need at least another 2 weeks.

McBubatz 14th week, had to dispose of a bud (picture no. 6 & 7), had a bit of bud rot. All the others are fine, it's both a curse and a blessing when the buds are so fat and rock-hard, I think we'll be harvesting around next week, until then I'll check the buds daily.

McBubatz A bit late, I think tomorrow (Monday) will be the harvest. I already cut off 1 head bud because I thought it was mold again 😅, but it was just a ton of trichomes that were sticking together like Velcro 😂. Unfortunately, I couldn't capture it properly in the photo 😔. Anyway, as I said, the rest will be done tomorrow, and it will also be meticulously checked for mold 🧐, keep your fingers crossed for me.
Also alles in allem ganz gut, bis auf den einen Bud mit Blütenfäule waren alle andren ok und frei von Schimmel. Gewachsen ganz ok, würde sie beim.nächsten mal eher ohne toppen höchsten LST fahren, die Triebe waren so stark das die quasi das LST entweder sehr intensiv oder am am besten garnicht betrieben wird. Trotzdem is sie fein, der Geruch einfach herrlich nach Zitrus und ein kleiner cheese Unterton, richtig richtig gut . Ertrag is leider ne gute ecke weniger als die andren im Zelt. Aber sei's drum, is immer noch gut und in nem akzeptablen Bereich.

McBubatz Overall a good strain that becomes fine under GOOD conditions, had a bit too high humidity in the flowers and unfortunately one bud was affected, but luckily I noticed it early enough and the rest is fine 😅. Otherwise, super lemony terps that really enriched the pre-trimming process 🤤, like when fresh lemons are cut open, super pleasant.
It's now hanging for a few days to dry in the tent.
71g dry is a bit less than hoped for, but a fat bud (unfortunately one of the thickest) was also removed due to bud rot and the conditions weren't perfect, so it's okay for me. Otherwise, top strain, my pheno is blessed with EXTREMELY good citrus terps with a slightly earthy finish in smell and taste. The effect is decent, comes quickly and with force 😅, can easily put you to sleep if you overdo it 🤣, but at normal dosage, it's very relaxing in both mind and body, so perfect for winding down after work.
@Schnabeldino, yeah I had to jump on this again, love Wu Tang and Method Man, been listening to their music for over 20 years now and I'm so hyped that there are finally Seeds out. Yeah, I really like the box too, the Grinder is actually too nice for me to use 😅 but it's cool that one is included.
Yeah, I saw that too, damn I really wanted a green one 🤣😭 but whatever, the white one is fine too 😄
@KuaerSchlaeger, hehe thanks, yeah I really wanted to try some of the Tical strains, I'm a big fan of Method Man and it just had to happen. So far, I haven't been disappointed with the strain, really strong growth with super stable side branches, plus it's the tallest in the tent, it looks really good so far. I still have a few more strains from Tical that are coming in gradually. Next up is the Nectar Drip Limited Edition, so feel free to check it out when it's ready 😉.
@Mia_BIOTABS, the pictures are now 3 days old, I compared today and it's already grown quite a bit again 😁, it really seems to like it. The biggest leaves are already bigger than my hand 😄💪.
@KuaerSchlaeger, yeah that can happen, but the buds are really fat and rock hard, I had trouble cracking the bud open to take a look. It's really just the small spot, the rest of the bud was actually fine, but no risk so I threw it all away. The rest of the plant is clean though 😁. But it was probably due to the high humidity, unfortunately I don't have a dehumidifier at the moment, I would love a Vivosun but it's a bit too expensive for me 😭.😅. Yeah, definitely look forward to it, it smells really great 👌
Bad question about the "jiffys"...
Is there a specific reason why the seeds don't go directly into the jiffys?
I don't really know much about these things, sorry :-(
@@LetsDiyGrow, um no you can just put them in directly 😁, I just let them pre-germinate in cotton pads, then it often goes a bit faster, but not always 😅😁.
@McBubatz, ahh okay I understand..
I have a pack of coconut tablets here.. got them a few weeks ago at Lidl...
But somehow... I don't know... I find the "cotton pad" method more pleasant and definitely faster than anything else..
Is there anything to consider? Or just let them swell in pH water and put the seed in?
Sorry for the silly question
@@LetsDiyGrow, oh I see my answer didn’t get uploaded, so here it is again 😄. No, there’s really nothing special to keep in mind. You can soak the tabs normally with tap water (pH adjustment isn’t really necessary here since no nutrients are being absorbed at the beginning), then just put in either pre-germinated or non-pre-germinated seeds and wait 😄.
@KuaerSchlaeger, thank you so much 😁, it's really extremely covered in trichomes, I've checked all the buds thoroughly and it's looking really good, the smell is so amazing, I'm telling you 🤤 and the buds are rock hard 😄. Get excited for it. I actually wanted to do the Mimosa next, but now the Nectar Drip is planned 🤣. But I first need to figure out how to handle the LF issue with 4 plants 😅.
@420Germany, haha thanks, it's really nice, but I think when training you should go more towards mainlining and HST, with LST the branches just pull out of the soil after a few days 🤣💪 really strong growth pattern and very robust side branches. But I'm not completely satisfied unfortunately, the buds on top are nice and thick but the ones at the bottom hardly get any light because they grew so tightly 😅. Well, the yield here will be a bit lower but it smells great and is extremely resinous, even with the small buds at the bottom. Next round I'm going for the Limited Edition of Zami X Tical, hopefully it performs just as well.
