Black Cherry Cookies

zerozerofarms 8 out of 9 look really good and all have been topped once so far and are now tied down a bit with plant ties. The lower leaves don't look perfect, but they'll be cut off anyway.

zerozerofarms A part of the plants was topped, but only the stretched ones, and since the little ones have been in the new soil, they've developed significantly better. Only the middle one in the front row doesn't look quite as good. The Under Canopy light is already running for testing to see what impact it has during the Veg stage.

zerozerofarms With each pair of leaves, the little ones look better. Now they've settled into the soil, and the mykos/trichos should be well spread in the pot. 4-5 have been topped, and this is the last update before the flowering switch. I'm still not sure if I'll do 12/12 or 13/11.

zerozerofarms Since the last update, the little ones have really taken off and are now all in flowering. Currently on flowering day 5, and there are 12.5 hours of main light and an additional 10 minutes of 730nm sleep light. I haven't defoliated yet so that the side branches stay relatively short.

zerozerofarms In the meantime, the stretch is completely done and they have all grown very evenly, even though only half of them were topped twice. However, there are now only 8 plants left because I had to remove one. It turned out to be male after all. So, not a hermaphrodite, but a full male. It also stood out from the beginning with its growth pattern. Next, the nice ones will be defoliated, and then the Under Canopy light will be positioned.

zerozerofarms Now all the plants have been defoliated and lollypopped. The UnderCanopy light is raising the temperature a bit too much. Let's see how I manage the light schedule. Currently, there's 12.5 hours of light and 11.5 hours of darkness. The smell is getting stronger. Mostly fruity sweet with very slight gas notes in between.

zerozerofarms Not much is happening right now, the shoots are getting heavier and more resinous. Next, I guess I'll have to put the SCROG net on after all. Next time I need to remove the lower plant benders sooner because otherwise, they prevent the branches from getting thicker. Aside from a few small exceptions, the nutrient supply is very good, but a little healthy stress doesn't hurt. There are some light purple tips visible on at least 2 plants.

zerozerofarms The flowering is going well, but you can definitely see one big disadvantage of seed plants with this strain. The phenos are quite varied in terms of development and nutrient needs. 3 are already really far along and extremely resinous. The watering system has also been cleaned and is running great again.

zerozerofarms One will be harvested soon, and you can see in the pictures which one it will probably be. 2-3 show some stronger deficiencies, probably because my watering wasn't going well for a while, or it could be due to the soil mix. But in the last few days, you could see that the buds have gained some weight again. And it smells deliciously fruity. My carbon filter was also a bit clogged, which made my temps a bit too high.

zerozerofarms In the meantime, I was able to harvest one. Now there are still 7 left, and 3 of them look really good. Unfortunately, the other 4 don't look quite as good due to the watering issues, but it should improve now, and hopefully, they'll still produce some nice buds. But they really smell deliciously creamy sweet.

zerozerofarms Not much to report really. One has been harvested now. 2 need about 10 more days and the remaining 4 probably up to 20 days due to a few small fails. It's a shame about the wide pheno variation. At least the first plant yielded 80-85 g. :-)

zerozerofarms Now all are harvested except for one. That one still wants a bit more, but it's slowly starting to turn purple from the top down. I'll give the plant a few more days before it falls too.

zerozerofarms The entire grow didn't measure anything regarding the nutrients and water. This only works with Plagron Alga series or with BioBizz. For smoking, the strain is great, but for growing, it was just okay.
