Very impressed with this strain. She was easy to grow, strong structured and produced some nice fat, frosty buds. Probably not the go-to strain if you've got a productive day ahead of you but be sure to get this girl in your garden and roll one up/pack a bowl or two once that day has ended! This girl will definitely be staying in the garden for a long time.

Nutrients
Never had any issues using Growth Technology Liquid Slilicon and Ionic Cal-Mag Pro. The plants are perfectly bendable in veg due to the silicon and the Cal-Mag is doing it's job. Running in coco, Cal-Mag is of more importance and I've never had many issues using this. If any occur it has been quickly fixed with this and some Epsom Salts.
Been using the GHE base nutrient line for a while. It works for me and I like the fact that this line is a 3 part, meaning I can feed at the ratios I wish to feed throughout a cycle and can control what is being fed exactly. This was my first run with Ripen. I do think it made a difference in harvest, but at the moment I'm not sure if it has affected the taste as they haven't been curing long enough and it's also my first time running all of these strains. I'll be doing side by sides in future to test properly. I've seen many people say it speeds up the ripening stage and can be used throughout flush but because it has a PK value, I used it the same as any other PK booster and stopped feeding to give a full flush at the same time as my other nutrients. Everything was super frosty and perfectly healthy so I can only put it down to what was being put in!
Don't smell this stuff, it's nasty.. With that being said I do think this improved my garden and the overall health and wellness of the plants. As this cycle was my first time running all of these strains, I can't exactly give a definite, honest opinion on whether it has increased yeild or not or how much exactly. I've definitely noticed an increase in trichomes but whether that is down to the genetics and an all-around healthy cycle, or that plus the Mammoth P beneficials doing their part I cant say. My only conclusion is that I'm very happy with how this run went; the health, frost and ease of this cycle so I can only put that down to everything that being put in.

Very impressed with Royal Queen Seeds for producing this girl for us all to enjoy! She'll be popped again as soon as I can and will be staying in my garden for a long time. Her buds are too fat and frosty to say no to! And she yields very well. Looking forward to running her under the new 315w CMH. I've enjoyed doing this diary, and all my others, on grow diaries and will continue to start more. If even one person has learned one thing from my presence on here, then that makes it all worth it in my opinion! From where I stand that's all we can do for each other our community. Because I've created 4 seperate diaries with 4 different strains, I've had to calculate these by dividing the conditions by 4 (4 plants in total but only one of each strain). This is the fairest and only way to work it out properly. I also want to thank Royal Queen Seeds for creating this partnership between us and I definitely look forward to growing more of their strains. All of which will be on Grow Diaries! Thanks for following and happy growing! ๐Ÿบ

I stop Cal and Mag at day 35-40 otherwise they'll be hard to flush and she won't get a proper fade on through a 2 week flush. Silicon is only a supplement so not needed throughout the second half of flower, I know some people don't even use it during flower. Silicon is the hardest to flush out, that's why I stop it on Day 28 ๐Ÿ™‚๐Ÿบ

@biggreens420, that's fair enough. Personally I've not had any issues with it apart from having to wipe off the dried silicon on the top of the bottle lol. I still use it in flower but stop feeding 3-4weeks before harvest as it takes a little longer to flush out than other nutrients ๐Ÿบ

@TheFoxFarmer,yeah I do but I dont like the stuff its in some of my grows and it definitely helps with flexibility but I try to put the least in chemical wise and its horrible to use gunks everything up lol and when I use it I take it out in flower
TheFoxFarmer
TheFoxFarmer
@biggreens420, definitely mate. The first thing I noticed was it's thick stems and it's not as easy to bend as most other strains I've grown. That's why I've just been bending her down once or twice a day rather than tie her down. It doesn't do quite as good of a job as tying but it's shaped her enough and let in a lot more light for her lower nodes to catch up. I think I would have cloned it too mate to be honest, rather than messing around trying to fix it lol hope all goes well with it bro ๐Ÿ‘ I'm not sure if you do already, but if you like to LST, silica is a gread thing to add to your feed. It makes them a lot easier to bend and shape without snapping. I use Growth Technology Liquid Silicon as it's a potassium silicate but there's many others lol ๐Ÿบ

Hahaha.... I know this is an older Diary but I was reading solid diaries for my grow I have going, stumbled upon this one and couldn't help but laugh because I did the EXACT same thing with my extension cord red/green light for a few weeks, unfortunately I got 3-4 hermies . I'm glad I'm not the only one, god bless! gnarly looking outcome on this one, well done sir.

Haha thanks @Herbalize, but don't worry, I'm a patient guy when it comes to flushing. I'm not afraid to go for a 3 week flush if I feel I need to, but these girls look like they'll finish on time ๐Ÿบ
