Pot of Legends

Sprouted 1st of June - REALLY EXCITED FOR THIS ONE!!! Entering a fine selection from Zambeza! I purposely didn’t put a Vs it the title let’s not start a war over which is best, but I’m a real fan of that bubblegum flavours, and to add an OG to that oooweee damn! That sounds sweet! NYC Diesel has a lot to live up to! The preparation of the grow below > > > I have used a very strange mix from the leftovers of my bags of soil, coco and perlite but it’s all gone now so I used some perlite to add more volume and also a much higher amount of Coco than recommended... the Ratio is as follows: Canna Terra Professional 50% Canna Coco Professional+ 40% Perlite 10% I pre “cooked” the soil using a pack containing beneficial bacterial, from GREEN BUZZ LIQUIDS I added 2g to bubbled water then fed 1L to each pot. I then mixed the soil well with my hands and left it 4 days. 2 days after preparing soil I germinated 4 different strains/seeds using the paper towel method 100%. It took a further 2 days for a reasonable taproot to show planted them all. *Watered daily with 60-100ml of plain water* ——————————————————— 7th June - Day 7 pictures taken, The fun begins!!! watered with 1L to each plant containing More roots 2ml/L Humic Plus 2ml/L Liquid Grow 2ml/L

June 10th Day 10 - this is going to be easy till we get to day 32 ^ lol Watered with 500ml to each plant, Just to give them a little drink to keep them going! My aim is to let the roots continue searching at the bottom of the pot where more of a moisture build up. So I will only be watering with small amounts <1L till that root mass has developed... could be wrong could be right, that’s how I’m doing it and all is well. Expect it to take me till day 20ish before i need to soak the pots✌️🏻

June 14th Day 14 - OMG, WTF, etc... seriously crazy growth, excited to see what bud development looks like using this line of nutrients! If it’s anything like the growth period look out!!

June 23rd - Watered Day 23 with 1g living organics and 1ml/l canna calmag + above nutrient schedule... Both plants from Zambeza are on great form!! Very resistant to my neglect over this past week, I’ve had some PH problems. Hopefully have them sorted now by reducing PH of water feed from now. ——————————————————— 26th June - watered today 1.5L pretty much no run off just what came out the sides of the pot really. This saves watering and builds up a good amount of usable nutrients in the soil! I will be flushing next water will be just plain water till I get a good run off I’m interested to know what the PH and EC of each plant. Maybe a Beneficial tea using Living Organics! The feed today consisted of: 1ml/L Canna Calmag 1ml/L More roots 2ml/L Humic Acid+ 1ml/L Liquid Grow 2ml/L Liquid Bloom 2ml/L Fast Buds Bubbled the water whilst adding nutrients left for 30min Ph adjusted using Ph up to 6.5 EC around 1.5 The feed Smells like a fruit cocktail.

28th of June Week 5 - Day 28, watered today with everything above and some canna Calmag 3ml/l all the leaves have greened up since apart from the already drained lower fan leaves. Bud growth is coming along, one thing that I have really missed since last year is thick large stems early on! I’m having trouble replicating. I have really good growth from the start but I know it could be better. Especially with such quality nutrients and genetics!! My conclusion is the light HPS from the start could be triggering flowering early, preflowers at day 12 on autos, flowering day 20ish I remember a year or so ago using just HPS on 600w 50cm away big growth early on with thicker stems. Can’t be using 600w at this time of year it’s cooking in there as it is✌️🏻

6th July - Day 36 Watered using a beneficial bacteria and fungi mix. This was to flush the nutrient build up in the soil/coco mix. Next time I’m definitely using the 90% soil with a 10% addition of coco. Not knocking coco at all it’s a real wonder to grow in. If you have the right access to water. I can’t water as frequently as required and I haven’t got the patience for hydro. If I ever move to a suitable location I will build my dream set up and things will be brighter I’m sure. But for now we’re doing just fine. A little bit of nutrient burn is nothing in the light of things. Green Buzz Liquids are stronger than expected, at some point it looked like I was having a little N toxicity. I backed off with grow liquid completely and tried to adjust things in the soil by feeding just the boosters. I used full dose of PK although we’re past the stretch we’re still using autoflowers that are only small and with thehigh temps too due to summer... it was a Nutrient Festival in my tent!! After flushing the medium I was seeing readings close to 2.0EC in organic that is just too high. Probably down to salt build up from not watering the coco well enough. PH coming out the bottom of pots was 6.1/6.2 I’m guessing that it’s still too low even though we’re probably looking at 50/50 coco/soil. PH6.4/6.5 should be perfect as it’s an organic bio life I’ve been trying to create since starting. Lots of plans for the future. Thanks to anyone that stops in, feel free to link me to your grow if you want to share!✌️🏻

12th July - Day 42! In the voice of David Attenborough - Here we have a NYC Diesel and OG Bubblegum from Zambeza. Some fine specimen indeed! ———————————————— 14th July - Day 44 - Ph 6.2 Ec 1300 10L water added: - 2ml/L Humic Acid Plus - 2ml/L Liquid Bloom - 2ml/L Big Fruits - 1ml/L Liquid Pk

July 26th Day 56 - I wanted to update showing the use of Big Fruits! Ive used this product every watering during flower. And will continue until next week. I used only clean fruits 1 time! to flush the soil. The OG Bubblegum plant flushed 3000ec out of the soil (that’s crazy high) again it’s because of the composition of the soil/coco. So if you do intend on mixing soil with coco be prepared to flush the soil well every water we should use a lot of “liquid” to make sure there is run off. In a pure soil blend you do not need to do this. Or at least AFAIK I haven’t needed to use a lot of water in the past in soil. I like it this way haha anyhow. Looking forward to tying the NYC Diesel, she is super frosty and smells amazing ☃️

August 5th Day 65 - Well it has been eventful as always but we’ve come to the end of the road. If I was going to match these 2 lady’s against each other, I would be going for the NYC Diesel every time. I haven’t even tasted either of these marvellous girls yet. From first impressions you only have to look at the Crystal production on the NYCD not a mm without THC on it. She’s covered. The smell is insane. Such a toxic citrus smell to her, wen you run your fingers on leaf of bud it literally feels initially so oily like butter then instantly after the sticky feeling. Can not touch this in fear of stinking everything out. On the other hand the OG Bubblegum is smelling very weak TBH the smell is there but it’s faint. If I rub my fingers on her she smells piney with a hint pungent sweet and sour notes. Still a great smell to her. But I’m not looking forward to anything I’ve harvested this run as much as the NYCD. Stay tuned for a update on her when she’s done. I will cure for 1 month and update again when she’s cured.✌️🏻 ————————————————- Honestly if I was stuck on a desert island and I had to choose 1 nutrient to grow my coconut trees it would be Green Buzz Liquids - CLEAN FRUITS!!! I know this isn’t the first time I’ve mentioned this product. And it will not be the Last!! Honestly!! Why is it so good? Because it’s does exactly what it says on the bottle it literally cleans your fruits. How does it work? I have no idea... my guess is some cool scientists got a magic wand, like the ones in Harry Potter, must have been one with a dragon heart string. Waved it around for a while, abracadabra a few times and BOOM!! This AMAZING product was made. But seriously how does it work...? It cleans the fruits from the very first application. I did a test, this is what I found... I am a strange person when it comes to age old secrets and such as tasting leaf juice will tell you more about your plant than you think. For example, take a leaf off the plant from any location. Taste the part that was cut from the stem. What does it taste of? In veg should taste watery with a little tang of bitterness. In flower should taste a little zing of salty a little bit like baking soda with a pinch of salt. Also in flower you should be able to taste all the Terpenes produced by the plant in question. Usually raw cannabis has a spicy taste also. After doing this for years and judging the health of my plants based on the taste of the leaf juice before harvest. I can honestly tell you wether a plant still has stored nutrients by the juice from the leaf. How CLEAN FRUITS works... It removes the nutrients from the plant from the very first dose. I do not know the science I’m guessing it has something to do with osmosis and how the plants expel nutrients during dark hours. And this is seriously where the magic happens. So I’ve used this product twice now but this time I can see the greatness of it all. I had an issue that made me need to remove the light from tent. I used 20ml/L of the CLEAN FRUITS product with 10L plain water and added it to all plant with a little run off. With the full knowledge that the plants would not receive anymore light hours. I gave the plants 24hrs of light before I plan to chop. Today I started taking leaves off and that’s where I can give you MHO. Literally no salty taste in the leaves just a sweet watery taste which is exactly what I want. It’s taken over a week to ever get buds tasting so good before harvest by only using plain water to flush. So the conclusion is that I will never grow anything in soil without using this product again!! Thank you so much!! Enjoy pictures and let me know what you think :)

I enjoyed growing this lady she was abused a little, nice foxtailing the appearance of the bud isn’t so spectacular not covered in THC like her sister the NYCD. Overall the effects are strong, much more Stoney Stone. The taste is pretty average in the sense it’s nothing exotic, I suppose because it’s such an Oldy I have forsaken it. It took me back to a time when I was younger and just called weed, “nice or commercial” no real names spoken ✌️🏻
