2019 Barneys Farm Grow

2 weeks after cloning they took right off. under a platinum led 150

slight PH issue, corrected to 6.5. started lst on all 4 plants.

plants seem to be doing great taking to lst well starting to fill out.

got the 4 65 gallons ready, plants growing great. pineapple showing weird signs. everything grown with Gaia Green. sail made was cooked for 5 weeks. 16 bags of happy frog, 6 bags earthworm castings, 4 bags composted cow manure, 4 bags of vulcanite. fertilizer, 16 cups of 4-4-4, 8 cups 2-8-4, 2 cups blood meal, 2 cups kelp meal, 2 cups alfalfa meal, 2 cups fish bone meal. 1 pouch of soil activator. plants just got a feeding of 4-4-4 2 tbsp, 2 tbsp glacial rock dust.

plants all growing very well really took off with the compost tea. due for a feed with a seed sprouted tea have corn and barley germinating now. pretty much maxed out with light coverage. had pans to move plants last week but the weather isn't cooperating as planned. leave for work tomorrow for weeks. outer cages put on smart pots hopefully they get that big! lol and red wigglers add to pots.

Well back after two weeks at work. plants grew,had to do a little hair cut and trimmed the bottoms out. Seemed to have gotten rid of the bugs can't find anywhere but that doesn't mean they're gone so going to be treated with organic cold press neem oil with foliar spray and root drench. Have cut down on watering just watering more often as thats more then likely where my pest problem came from. They all spent 4 hours on the deck yesterday with a UV index of 4. The wind did pick up yesterday while they were out on the deck and blew the peyote cookies over and messed up a few branches but nothing broken. They will be going out maybe monday or tuesday just have to see how they handle the next few days of sun. The girls won't be getting feed this time around there are tons of nutes in the pots don't want to run the risk of note lockout, i just hope the pots don't have to much in then as it is fingers crossed they defiantly need to get in a bigger pot very soon. The lights are running on 17 on and 7 off, outdoors right now is 14:36 hrs of sun lets hope we don't go into bud..... /red wiggler compost worms are still in the smart pot was kinda worried the might have have said screw this with all the rain we've been getting not were not off to a good start this here up in Atlantic Canada but lets hope the means its going to be a good finish. -gorilla zkittlez is 31 inches high -pine apple chunk is 33 inches high -peyote cooking is 33 inches high -blue galet0 41 is 29 inches high

Sorry about missing an up date while i was home was just wicked busy this time home. The ladies are coming around since transplant a little new growth its been staying chilly at night down to 10C. The peyote cookies took some wind damage and a slight sun burn and.....and haha she took root damage during transplant due to a tab on the inside of the pot that i didn't notice so when she came out she left roots behind, but on the bright side of things she's coming around and noticed new growth. No feeding needed as the pots were loaded before hand with the super soil i cooked up seems to be doing good. The ladies only had one watering at a PH of 6.5 due to all the rain we got as you can prob see have a little root rot in the small plants in the back had to take the straw out of the pots to get some to evaporate. Hard to get a measurement on the as i just trained the branches out of the cage. Security cams put up today, no fence yet the parts didn't come in yet at the local hardware store. Built a table for the garage for all the gear with a teflon top should be nice and easy to keep clean. Anyways this will be the last update till july 3rd as i'm leaving for work again for 2 weeks.

Im pretty sure mother nature is right off on the legal cannabis here in Atlantic Canada the weather has been crap. but looking good as of tomorrow finally into the 20C's, summer is way late here this year. Just got home so the ladies got a hair cut as soon as i got home took a lot leaves off and theres still a ton there but not really looking to shunt them. the have done pretty good i think for the weather we've been having seeing as the have only had 1 watering since June 6th............. I just started with a compost brew, 5 cups of earthworm castings, 4 cups of Gaia Green living soil, 1 Tbsp of alfalfa meal, 2 caps of mycorrhiza placed in a tay with a cover and a small air vent. Heat mat with a temp of 22C. What I've seen on the internet a lot, is the bacteria grows faster fungi, so i am attempting to grow the fungi first to have a head start on the bacteria, this will take a few days and soon should have a white fluffy ball growing on the soil. Will the start my brew. All the ladies are all roughly 42 inches wide. pineapple chunk-32 inched high peyote cookies-33 inches high gorilla zkittlez-38 inches high bleu gelato 41- 32 inched high

It was very good week i must say weather cleared up and got some good growth. July 5th Pineapple, Peyote, Gorilla, got 4 cups 4-4-4, 2 cups glacial rock dust, 4 Tbsp oyster shell flour. Blue Gelato 41 got 3 cups of 4-4-4 as she is a light feeder tends to burn. they also got 2.5 gallons of water at 6.5 July 7th started compost brew, July 8th each girl got 5 gallons of liquid gold. pineapple 38 inches peyote 38 inches gorilla 44 inches blue gelato41 34 inches

good week this week. some of the girls slowed down a bit but are fill out nicely. I would imagine the next time i come out the gorilla will at least be out of her cage. Everything is very healthy looking, a rust fungus did make an appearance , did catch it early but it didn't make it to far the worst of it hit the small shiskaberry. put a trellis net inside a couple cages. I forgot to mention about the compost tea i brewed up that when just checked the PH of the brew it checked in at 8.3 i did not correct this PH as thats what the organisms were living in and adding PH down could kill them, as you can see organics is a little different from bottled nutes as they are not showing any signs of PH problems. This will be my last upload till july 31, I'm thinking around then the stretch will happen and first or second week of august will be flowering time. Got the fence up temporary will continue with it when i get home. pineapple 43 peyote 41 gorilla 46 blue gelato 41 38

This is going to be a quick up date as I’m still at work at sea till the 31st and had pictures sent to me by my better half. Not really sure as I don’t have any experience in the stretch or flowering so not really sure if they just took a huge growth spurt or the pineapple and gorilla are in the stretch, according to the time table we’re still at 15:09 hrs of sunlight, hasn’t been rainy or cloudy so I’m not sure. All 4 girls have had the white pistals from day one in March as they were clones taken from my mature mother plants. Yea yea I kinda went ass backwards in growing cannabis as I started the mother plants in December and learned how cut clones and experimented and played with them.

It's been a really busy day and a half with the ladies the needed a lot of work seeing as the freaked out while i was gone with this heat we've been having. Yesterday was 32C humid of 42C, its been warm. They got a major trim job still needs will do when she recovers from this one. They got a feeding today, of a mixture of thing that been said i hope to hell they don't burn cuz it was a lot of fertilizer ahah. Each of the 4 big ladies got: 4 cups all purpose 4-4-4 6 Tbsp blood meal 14-0-0 1 cup kelp meal 1 cup fossilized carbon complex 2 cups glacial rock dust 6 Tbsp oyster shell flour They also got 5 gallons of water PH at 6.8. Compost Tea is going to be started in roughly another 1 just waiting on the water temp to warm up a little more. I'm not going to Ph the brew at all just going to add the ingredients in and feed the way it comes out if it brew properly with a nice pleasant smell. Hopefully tea will be ready sometime tomorrow evening. Please don't burn please don't burn lol. pineapple- 55 inches Peyote-50 gorilla-58 BG41-49 Thats it for now just going to give them some tender loving care over the next couple days and get things clean up.

Well first off lets say i'll be getting an irrigation system for next year no more of this dragging around a hose, these ladies drank 20 gals each in 6 days.....There all growing very well, safe to say theres lots of nitrogen in the pots. I have spotted a deficiency at which i believe to be a potassium deficiency?!?! So i gave them 1 cup of Gaia Green Langbinite, this is a slow release i'm in search of the Gaia Green soluble seaweed extract 1-1-17. I gave them a good clean out in the middle of them, but the still need more they kinda went outa control..aha They did grow a bit after such heavy cleaning pineapple: 59 inches peyote: 56 inches gorilla: 62 inches ble gelato: 52 inches Rest of the week just going to keep cleaning them out till i get them where i want them, and watering omg watering haha. I did put a net overtop of them it was big enough for some i guess the gorilla just swallowed up the net, the pineapple did a good job of it to. There due for a Neem oil spray this evening as i spotted aphids on the weekend and sprayed them on sunday night. I was really hoping to see some flowers start to form on the ladies but not 1 of the 15 i have out started, but thats ok i still have a week left home.

I wish everything would just growing now and start flowering lol safe to say i'm going to need more then just a couple pairs of trimmer scissors ....... watering has slowed down now that the heat is gone, or well that heat wave we had for a couple weeks. I would dare say that next week or the week after a couple of these are going to start flowering, if I was to guess it would be the Peyote and the BG41, the Gorilla i think is the farthest out from flower. Got something happening in the garden, i posted a couple pictures of some leaves and i fill out a grow question and someone will get one lucky point lol. I believe it to be cute burn maybe?!?! Theres been a bit of clawing going on I believe it to from over fertilization. I did apply langbinite 0-0-22, 22%(k20) 11% magnesium(mg), and 22% (s), maybe it could be from the sulphur.....dummy. Heights are : Pineapple: 63 inches Peyote: 59 inches Gorilla: 67 inches BG41: 57 inches Still battling aphids but they do seem to be dying off, have notices lady bugs lately. Well this is going to be the last update till Sept 4th back to work tomorrow booooo.

quick update been really busy i'll have better pics on up Wednesday just had to get something up for this week. Everything is in flowering, bg41 is the farthest behind.

Will do a little better of an update this week. Everything seems to be doing well, i would say the Peyote is around 3 weeks into flowering, Pineapple and Gorilla around 2 weeks, and the Blue G 41 about a week and a half to maybe 2 weeks. The shelter i made didn't turn out as good as the video i watched, came out a little twisted and what not but working on straightening everything this week, see what we can make of it anyways. There seems to be another storm coming up from Florida again for Saturday so will be using the tarp again! I have a compost tea brew and should be ready to go around 8 tonight, hopefully it will do what its supposed to do and supercharge my soil and see a big difference next week. The ladies got a feeding last week, I then mixed up some Gaia Green living soil and some Growing Green earthworm castings and put this over top of the feeding. Feeding -5 cups gaia green bloom 2-8-4 -3 cups of gaia green glacial rock dust -1 cup of fossilized carbon complex -1 cup bokashi pro-gro fermented fertilizer 2.57-2.5-1.7 Top Dressed with: -Gaia green living soil -growing green earthworm casting Compost tea -5 cups gaia green living soil -5 cups earthworm castings -1 cup bokashi pro-gro -5 cups wholesome black strap molasses Oh by the way that growing green earthworm casting is incredible it comes with live worms!! The new cameras are here and are now placed in such that they are covered in every angle. Bear alarm trip wires are here, haven't tested them out yet but maybe tomorrow i'll get around to it, i'll post a video for anyone interested. Thats it for now if i think of anything else will be updated! thanks for checking out the grow.

Well there we have it folks 6 months worth of work destroyed in a matter of 2 hrs into category 2 hurricane Dorian winds of 160 gust of 190. I’m just absolutely deviate. I’m not even really sure what to say.... I’ll prop em back up and see what happens. Thanks to everyone stopping by and checking out the grow as this maybe the last update for these girls.

Well here is it folks what left. We have lost the pineapple but hey it is what it is right. Were playing in Mother Natures play ground just remember that she allows us to be here even tho in my eye's were screwing it all up all, when she decides to act up its usually not in our favour and there isn't to much ya can do about it. So just try and stay humble and put one foot in front of the other and do better. Dealing with some serious bud rot right now from all the dead leaves laying on the buds, rain and humidity, i might get couple ounces out this when it's all said and done, its is by far the most about of money i have ever paid for possibly a few ounces prob somewhere in the ball park of $900 an ounce.....lmfao omg i hurt hahaha talk about getting ripped off lol oh dear. Anyways I'm sure i'm going to harvest before i go back to work just for the sake of getting something out of it rather then nothin i will leave the BG41 up she way behind its not even funny frost is gonna get her i can see it now she's looking like very end of Oct maybe in first week of Nov. They do still need a lot of crap taken off them i was at it all day today and prob going to be a few more days at it.

Over all she was very easy to go, she responded well to LST, and Topping. The pheno i had had a long many stalk kinda like a sativa. The mother plant of her was very easy to lay into a scrog. Im going to try this again and hopefully a different pheno will arise. I have planted in the pot a cover crop of White clover, Buck wheat, fall rye grass.

Everything seems to be well in the garden! The peyote was cut down and half the gorilla while I was home it’s curing now in the jars, the other half of the gorilla was cut down yesterday and hung, the peyote turned out to be 210g and so far with the gorilla 224g. The blue gelato is still kickin she’s not ready for harvest, 2 more weeks and she should be good as long as the cold doesn’t get her. I did do a big leaf defoliation on the bg41 as she’s very leafy and needs help as mold has been a huge issue this year. I’m hoping that I’ll at least hit my goal and get a pound off one plant, half way there with the gorilla and half still hanging.... fingers crossed! And all empty pots have now been planted with a cover crop of white clover, fall rye grass, and bucket wheat.

Over all she was a great strain to grow and she will be in the crop for next years grow that for sure i'm really enjoying her body buzz, buzz..This strain really helps with my Havs so that being said she is going in the ground for next years outdoor! The pheno i had she wanted to grow more vertical then horizontal so Lst did help her out . What i did notice with this years first grown i should have doing more defoliation to promote air movement and bigger buds up top. There was a lot of larf/shake so this is going thru the curing process and will be made into hash at a later date. She had a 12 day dry and so far a little over 2 weeks curing in the jars. This is by far the smoothest smoke I've had in a long time! can't say that for everything that was grown this year 😜but the peyote was spot on 👍 I may even try her in the tent and run a big batch of em on 12/12 she what we get. I would def recommend this to anyone looking for a nice mellow buzz with some body buzz effects, peyote cookies👍 give her a try!

i really would have like to seen her weight if she hadn't have gotten damaged by the hurricane, oh well it what it is she was a monster thats for sure and a nightmare to trim! lesson learnt way for defoliation is required just before flower shit was outa control there for while. Would like to try her again
