KurtHighgrade Welcome to my Growers Choice Contest 2026 diary about the widely beloved SUPER BOOF ๐Ÿ’š I'm very happy having made it to the Growers Choice Contest finally and that a friend supplied me with important (good) equipment (tent, ventilation system, 240w LED) so that this became possible. I'm super excited not only because it's my first contest on GD but also because I'm a fan of GC and got a great trust in this company's genetics- as the peace symbol out of GC strains in the pics proofs๐Ÿ˜‚โ˜ฎ๏ธ I will of cause give my very best to be be the fiercest competitor for the other starters๐Ÿ™ƒ๐Ÿ™‚๐Ÿ’š I thought this contest would be a good opportunity to test out GC's germination kit and compare it to the 'H2O2 in glass for 24 hours method'. And...Yes, the germination rate with the kit has been better (3/4) than putting the seeds for 24 hours in H2O2 and placing them into easy plugs (3/6). Root development has been the same with both methods. Seven days after germination four seedlings got transplanted into 26 l fabrics, the two smaller ones will get smaller containers and will be sent to flowering two or three weeks earlier in order to have some properly cured buds when the smoke report gets written .. โš’๏ธ Equipment Infos: ๐ŸŒž- CALUMA force LED 240w (Seoul Semiconductor LEDs, with an efficiency of 2.7๐Ÿš€) ๐ŸŒฌ๏ธ- PRIMAKLIMA temperature controlled 280m3 Ventilator and Filter ๐ŸŸ๏ธ- 0.8 x 0.8 X 1.6m GARDEN HIGHPRO Probox Master - LIGHTHOUSE Eco heat greenhouse heater 80w - VPD controlled AC INFINITY humidifier ๐ŸŒŠ- Osmosis filter MEASURY RO PRO - PAR meter BLOOMSTAR, - EC and pH meter MILWAUKEE (CD611, pH600) The plants are 17 hours under 200ฮผmol with a Dli slightly above 12 right now and I try to keep a VPD of 0.4 - 0.7. Temperatures are round 24ยฐC. Peace, good luck, fun and happy growing, friends of the good G๐Ÿ––๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ€๐Ÿ’š ๐Ÿ€๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ€โ˜ฎ๏ธ

KurtHighgrade Hi๐Ÿ’š although it seems like that the Growers Choice Contest is no longer existing๐Ÿ˜“ (already saw myself riding on an e-fatbike through my hometown ๐Ÿ˜‚) I will still give my best to let the six Super Boof plants shine bright ๐ŸŒž. So far everything's fine with the babes and they seem to like their home. Keeping the VPD between 0.4 -0.7 (like it should be through the whole vegging stage) while keeping the temperature steady near 24ยฐC is not that easy even with an extra heater. Most of the time it is round 0.8 -0.9 but it will lower when temperatures outside and humidity inside will rise in the upcoming weeks. The light intensity is about 400-500ฮผmol right now for 17 hours, 7 hours darkness. The EC is at 0.4, pH at 6.2. Hoping that the contest will go on... Happy growing to all competitors and everybody who's passing by๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ€๐ŸŒžโ˜ฎ๏ธ

KurtHighgrade Hi๐Ÿ’š All plants are doing well and are taking up speed. The VPD can be kept stable at 0.7/0.8 and temperature is optimal now (24ยฐC). They got fed twice already with organic NPK and one plant is showing slight signs of having a bit too much. I have to be careful with the EC cause of the powerful soil mixture I prepared for the contest. Next thing will be topping before New Moon on Thursdayโœ‚๏ธ Peace and happy growing ๐Ÿ’š ๐Ÿ€ ๐ŸŒž โ˜ฎ๏ธ 400-550 ฮผmol VPD 0.7/0.8 EC 0.8, pH 6.3 CO2 600ppm Rh 70% 24ยฐ C

KurtHighgrade Hi๐Ÿ’š, the plants develop nicely and show an indica growth pattern during their first weeks. They stay short and tend towards bushiness. I topped them before New Moon last week and they reacted very good. Another plant had to move out of the tent, I still don't know wether to do three or four, let's see... I hung up a CO2 Bag and some predator mite bags as well. Two plants show signs of slight overfeeding, two could take an even larger dose๐Ÿ™ƒ๐Ÿ˜… All in all the Super Boof seems to be an easy manageable cultivar. 400-550ฮผmol, EC 0.7, pH 6.3, VPD 0.8, CO2 550-750ppm, 24ยฐC, rH 70% Happy growing ๐Ÿ’š ๐Ÿ€ ๐ŸŒž๐Ÿ––๐Ÿผ

KurtHighgrade Hi Growmies ๐Ÿ’š, back with some pics from the last day of veg a few days ago. Three plants are remaining in the box, one of the formerly four goes on an outdoor mission. I've done some scrogging and a few more toppings here and there about 10 days before flipping three days ago. There should be enough nice and big colas in a few weeks ๐Ÿ€... 450-550ฮผmol, EC 0.9, pH 6.2, CO2 650, VPD 0.8 Happy weekend ๐Ÿ’š ๐Ÿ€ ๐ŸŒž

KurtHighgrade Hi๐Ÿ’š Two plants doubled their height after two weeks of flowering, the other one has got a more indica leaning growth pattern with shorter internodes. I raised the EC to 1.4, the VPD is kept low at 0.7, humidity is about 70% still. The leaves are catching something between 700 and 1050 ฮผmol. Yesterday I defoliated and pruned them. Have a nice weekend, happy growing๐Ÿ’š ๐Ÿ€ ๐ŸŒž๐Ÿ––๐Ÿผ

KurtHighgrade Hi๐Ÿ’š Six weeks are done and the plants got their last feeding on the day the pics were taken. The smaller indica pheno is the most resinous and is my personal favourite. The smell on is citric bitter, the bigger ones got some classical sweet orange bud scent on them. The indica pheno is slowing down, the hybrid phenos are continuing to grow at the same speed they did the last two weeks. GC's Blue Zushi is a heavy feeder and could even take a week of a raised up EC of 2.7 without showing any signs of over fertilisation the following week. Peace and happy growing ๐Ÿ’š ๐Ÿ€ ๐ŸŒž
