OUTDOOR BEAST

38PLAN WILD BESTIES, TRY TO BEAT ME

38PLAN There's no need to comment too much, I started this diary late, if you have any questions about how they turned out like this, just ask me and I'll respond, they have an incredible structure, they've lignified everywhere, planted in April with the first two weeks indoors.

38PLAN now things are getting tough, to give water I broke a branch with the hose which I immediately treated, the plants are starting to get heavy, the structure holds but now I have to be careful not to lose even a gram between mold and broken branches, the zillions is ahead of the others because it underwent a benign hormonal collapse, it had completely depleted the surface nitrogen and its mass pushed it to bloom under the hottest weather of the season, I will have to wait until it’s slightly less hot to harvest it to safeguard the terpenes. I’m 28 years old and I did my first harvest at 16, so I’ve been growing for a total of 12 years, I’ve seen really shameful plants win awards... who knows if I’ll win some too, I’m all alone and I’m not helped by anyone, managing these beasts is really difficult but it’s worth it, now the flowering has started and there isn’t much time left and I remember that the plants don’t take chemical fertilizers - synthetic hormones or CO2, they are totally natural and every pesticide or fertilizer has been made by me using other macerated plants like basil, chili, cinnamon, nettle, willow, cherry, blueberry, spinach, walnut and many other things, they are not all smoke and no roast but real war machines.

38PLAN Night walk, I wanted to take photos at night, I've been spending these days battling bugs, storms, and caterpillars, with this size they are really quite demanding, but these images serve to make you realize the explosiveness of the zillions, which still has several days to go and is still green underneath, and the majesty of the SHERBERT, which is still at the beginning but promises many kg of weed, there's also another SHERBERT that is sleeping, next time I'll take photos again during the day and I'll also capture the others.

38PLAN We're moving forward and the plants are progressing, but not without difficulties. Some branches have been attacked by gray mold due to wounds caused by caterpillar larvae a while back. I've already tasted some because the branches I cut had flowers, and let me tell you, the sherberts may have a crappy structure, but they have an absolutely exceptional flavor. Even the purple punch, despite only having pre-flowers, smells divine. I think it will be the best of the harvest. The zillions is a unique plant; it doesn't have exceptional terpenes, but it has a compactness of buds and a terrifying amount of resin. I'm waiting for it to get colder and for it to clear up a bit so the flavors will be better. One sherbert has a semi-broken branch; it's the one that looks more yellow compared to the others. I'm keeping an eye on it; I hope I won't have to cut it.

38PLAN I am tired of writing the names under each plant, today I won't do it, enjoy the bloom, it has been a difficult few weeks but we have managed to reach a balance, the zillions are almost there, the others a bit more, but even the others are starting to form well-defined calyxes, even if the purple punch and a couple of sherberts are still closer to the beginning than to the end

38PLAN I harvested half of a SHERBERT and half of the ZILLIONS, I won't post the end of the harvest yet because I want to show you the dry weight of both first. In total, I've only cut about 15% of the potential, yet I think I've already touched 3 kg, so today I'll just post the photos of the cut plants. When they are dry and clean and I have all the data, I'll publish everything. I dedicate this victory to my father who left us in June; he taught me how to grow when I was 16. We were supposed to do it together, but he got sick. Thank you for the skill and power you gave me. The management has been tough, but I was motivated; let's continue this journey.
