Starting germination on cotton towel after one night in a glass of water.
I've started in the final pot so maybe the growth will be slow in the beginning.
I'm using a 10 l pot with Atami soil with no pre added nutrients.
For the first week I will use only water and root stimulator.
Pretty satisfied with this one. She started to grow fast and leaves are looking good.
Still using only water and root booster for these days. By the end of the week I will use a small amount of Atami terra leaves ( recommended dosage is 2-5 ml per liter, I'll go with 1 ml per liter just to be sure).
Temperature is still ok but raising a little bit. Installed a small fan.
Fiming executed on the first day of 3rd week. The plant is still very short.
This week I'm using root booster and atami Terra leaves ( 2ml/l)
Fiming didn't go as I expected. Probably I didn't cut enough and she's just growing normally one main cola, so I decided to start lst to give her a S shape instead of mainlining.
Anyway she looks fine, leaves are bright
green and it start to smell a little bit.
Still short but I think it's better if she stays more bushy.
Starting week 4. Plant looks fine. She starts to smell a little bit
Lst on every branch, I'm trying to keep her flat, she's bushy. Made some defoliation.
Small pistils appeared. Hopefully she will start to stretch next week.
Starting week 5 with preflowers👍
Plant looks fine. Lst is going well. All branches have the same height.
Some yellow spot appeared on mid leaves. Don't know why if anyone can help is welcome. ✌️✌️
Some spots appeared. Only on mid leaves. Yellow spots. I've counted four. I'm feeding her with a mix of tap water and bottled water (using pH down to adjust at 6.0) and atami Terra leaves.
Totally normal. Could be where you splashed water on them from feeding or ruffled them doing early lst. You already have a watchful eye and if more appear there would be something to look into.
Good looking so far though.
First week of flowering. She is stretching. I'm gonna feed her with veg nutrients for this week with a little bit of flower stimulator.
Next week I'll go with flower nutrients. She looks fine even though grow seems a bit slower.
Maybe I'll cut of some of the lower branches that don't get enough light
She is a little bit pale on top of the branches near flowers, I wonder if it's a nitrogen deficiency or just the genetics of the strain showing off in flowering time (maybe both)
Starting week 7 with half veg nutrients and half flower nutrients. I think she has a little nitrogen deficiency bottom leaves are yellow. I'll switch to full flower nutrients by the end of the week.
She looks good and healthy.
Starting week 8.
Flowers are getting bigger and thick.
The smell is still weak which it's good for me.
Temperature are going up but she doesn't seem to suffer ( just some leaves are curving down on the edge)
Feeding her only with flowering nutrients this week.
She's loosing a lot of leaves, maybe I've switched to flower nutrients too early.
Anyway I added a little bit of veg nutrients today (day 54).
Necrosis appeared on two leaves after they get pale. Nitrogen deficiency??
Starting week 9 with good flowers.
She's ripening buds.
She's starting to smell like citrus
Lots of leaves falling I added a little bit of veg nutrients
Starting week 10 with some good buds. She's ripening flowers.
The smell is still weak.
I flushed her in the last 4 days because she had some necrosis on the older leaves.
Some pistil are getting amber (like 10 %) I will look at the flower with the microscope
Starting week 11 with good buds. She's ripening and getting sticky.
I've start flush with ph'ed water. I'll give her two weeks or ten days and then I will harvest.
Last week for her,
I'm flushing with tap water.
Smell is still weak but she's very sticky.
All branches are quite big with not so many popcorn buds.
Last night I shut down the lights.
Today (day 84) I'm harvesting.
I'm going to wet trim most of the sugar leaves, I want her to be as smooth as possible.
After 12 weeks I harvested this beauty.
I'm very satisfied, the growing process was easy with no big issues overall. The plan was to top or fim her at week 3 but I've missed so I decided to just bend her. She reacted well to the training and produced 5big colas and few popcorn buds.
Flowering stage was ok with no issues except some premature N deficit (my fault )
I wet trimmed her completely and put everything in a closet for a week. Today I removed the stems and stored everything in a glass jar.
Nice strain to grow, not too big but the final product is exactly what I was looking for, great active weed with diesel smell.
Thanks to everybody for the likes and the comments and to Grow Diaries
See you next month with a new one!!
Mike ✌️
@Pointlessmike,sometimes you need to leave them on because its your first defence against overfeeding or to much water at 1 point but overall you did a hell of a job on her because she looks amazing my friend👏👏😱😱😉😉
@Silky_smooth, thanks ✌️ I'm satisfied at the moment, I only have a cocern about some leaves yellowing and showing necrosis, maybe I messed up with nutrients. Anyway good strain so far, the smell is awesome
@StonedBoris, thanks ✌️ she is small ( not as big as she looks in the picture) but healthy and she's putting up some good flower! Very satisfied. Your diesel going well too 👍
@ElevatedNoob, thank you ✌️ I'm very satisfied with this strain so far, fast growing in veg, lst worked good.
She's healthy and flowers start to smell. Can't wait
@Silky_smooth, thank you ✌️ I'm pretty satisfied and she reacted well. I'm planning on defoliate and cut some lower branches. Can't wait for the flowers!!!✌️✌️
Yes i have also seen some amazing results from Growers using this technique. I myself am also on my second grow, currently waiting on my first crop drying out in my tent. The Harvest was intense!
With a bit of luck i should be able to get a total weight by the end of the week.
Sorry for rambling! Keep it up buddy i look forward to seeing this Flower in to a beauty!
@Merchant_Lord, hey thank you!! Growing fine. Fiming didn't go well, I think I didn't cut enough. So I'm going with lst. Canopy is flat I can't wait to see her flowers!! ✌️
@Merchant_Lord, thank you!!
This Is my second grow. In the first one I had 4 cream caramel auto by sweet seeds with no training or fiming. I just let them grew naturally. They were good but very tall and almost every flower except the main cola did not get enough light.
This time I want to try Lst and maybe FIM. Never done it before. i saw some good growers here doing It so I'll try. I bought plants wires and now I don't know how to block them. Maybe I'll drill holes in to the edge of the pot.
I'm going with only one seed this time.
