Easy week with stable temps. Just watered a couple, still no fertilizer and the way it's looking the soil should produce all the nutrients required. Further LST mid week and I'm starting to see a nice even canopy with plenty of new bud sites. I think I may have gone s little too heavy or too soon with the first LST as super wide and bushy it is. That's a 25 liter 5 gallon pot and it's all plant. I think my grow tent will just squeeze this baby in once full grown.
I'm really hoping for 100g out of this. I really dont smoke too much any more. Once harvested my next challenge will he storing the bud long term . Maybe 2 years. Last time I grew I vacuumed sealed the cured bud and refrigerated and had no issues with quality when storing long term
It's winter here and been a real cold one and I'm growing in a outdoor tin shed. Will dry in the same. There are 3 warmer days expected this week around 18c (65f)., Should I harvest early by up to 5 days or chance drying in at temps under 10c?. Will I get moldy buds?
Harvest and take extra precautions during the dry to ensure you dont get any mold. Dont stack your colas so they lay on top of each other, remove some fan leaves when you hang it to reduce humidity, and have some air exchange. I suggest checking on the plant as it hangs a couple times each day and rotate the branches to stop and wet spots. Good luck and happy growing!🍀👍
Your LST is a work of art! If you won't have any nute issues until end of harvest that type of soil is the shit and I want it too. I wonder where I could get it around here (EU)
@Vanalle, not sure if you can get the same soil in EU but sure you can find something similar. Not only does it require no fertiliser, but also no PH balancing as the soil itself balances everything out. Here's some links below anyhow if your interested in checking it out.

@Vanalle, hahahaha...well that was the case until week 4. My damn wife used my computer and saw my internet history and stumbled apon my grow diary. OMG..the plant nearly got a dose of weed killer but with some sweet talking it will live to see harvest. Let's just hope I live to see harvest as well 😂
By all means, harvest. You can lose all the harvest if not to mold, then to cold. I would not be surprised if you already have rot in some buds already.
OMG...I have just realised after spending so much time taking pics and updating, my diary pics for most weeks are missing. Newbie error I think when adding new weeks...Never mind. Plant is nearly there....I keep saying just a few more days to go...And a few days later I say the same thing again.
Bring it on...I sooo need this bud
