Ahh shit, here we go again. After 2 month, I'm ready to grow again. This time it's gonna be Lemon AK, cuz its summer you know, not indica time. I'm using same lamp, same DIY growbox but with different reflective material. Gonna use Air Pot , i think it will be better than smartpot, will see. I have chosen some interesting combinating of nutrients for this plant, some from Advanced Nutrients and GHE, hope it works great.
First seed that i started to germinate on 23/6 didnt germinate, i guess it was my fault cuz have put seed in refrigerator, and temperature was bouncing between 7.8c- 14c degrees, i thing it was a problem, so no pretension to fastbuds, you guys are awesome.
Bought a new timer, set to 18/6 light.
3/7 Bought and started to germinate new seed, checked 24 hours later and its already opened, will plant after 48 hours, mb earlier.
7/7 Planted seed today.
9/7 After morning watering and turning on the lights, plant finally sprouted.
10/7 is first day, watering 2 times a day, on morning and evening. About 50-70ml under stem using syringe, rest 400+ml around plant.
Day 2 - 500ml with RootPlus.
Day 3 - 500ml with nutrients.
Day 6 - Switched lights from 18 to 20 hours. Fans are now turned on 24/7. Intake fan gives a plant some nice breeze. Had no time so watered at night, 1L water under and near plant, and another 1.5L all over pot so it can last until tomorrow after's morning.
Day 7 - Plant is showing great progress. No water today. New set of leaves showed up. Very happy with this week.
Peace.
Hello! MB it is dumb question, but still. I plan to move my growbox so i wont disturb anybody. And I want to switch lights from 18 to 20 hours. Would it cause any problem after 3 weeks on 18 hour regime? Thank you.
Finally week 2, plant is doing great. idk if it's airpot, nutrients, 20 hours of lights or genetics, but girl is growing really fast. New nutrients this week with increased amounts, but not full dose. Full dose will be given from day 10-11.
Day 8 - Plant reacted great to 20 hours of light. Stem is still little bit thin for plant size, but fan breeze will help. 1L with nutrients. PH perfect G-B-M 1.2 ml/l, Root Plus 2 ml/l, Diamond Nectar 1.25 ml/l, CALiMAGic 0.4 ml/l.
Day 9 - Good day, great progress. Very healthy color. 1L water under plant, 1L on sides of pot.
Day 10 - Plant is growing by hours. Increased amount of nutrients and water. 2L from today. PH perfect G-B-M 2 ml/l, Root Plus 2 ml/l, Diamond Nectar 1.25 ml/l, CALiMAGic 0.4 ml/l.
Day 11 - Oh man i dont know what to say about it, its growing very fast. As you can see on photos, a lot of side leaves is coming. Stem is getting strong, makes me very happy. So far so good. No water today.
Day 12 - 2L with nutrients.
Peace.

Oh boy it was a pleasure growing this strain. Very rapid grow from day 1. No the most smelliest strain ever, but it will make your room smell like pine forest with some lemon trees.
***HOW IT GROWS***
From day 1, plant was growing super fast. It loves light. Start with small amount of nutrients, an go full schedule after week 3-4. I recommend providing little nice fan breeze from first week, as stem is developing slower than leaves, sooner you strength it-better for everyone. LST, SCROG worked great. Plant develops a lot of side branches, and if they get good light, they wont disappoint you.
***HARVEST***
Harvested on day 85, after 10 hours of darkness. Dry weight before manicuring was 602 gr, 511gr after. Got about 1g of scissor hash, and 60 grams of trim. Dry bud weight is 88 grams, less than i expected, but i was my fault, i cut too much leaves too often.
Day 1 - 21° 48%.
Day 2 - 21.5°, 55%.
Day 3 - 21.3°, 60%
Day 4 - 22.1° , 60%
Day 5 - 22.4° , 60%
Day 6 - 21.8°, 50%
Day 7 - 21.5°, 50%
Day 8 - 22.3° , 60%
Day 9 - 22.0° , 50%
After 9 days of drying, curing started. Opened jars about 3-4 time a day, for 10 minutes. After 2 week opening jars 1 time a day for 10 minutes.
***TASTE and SMELL***
While growing, she had almost no smell until last week. After it she smelled earthy and piney, with spicy grapefruit notes when sniffed closely. Right after drying, smell was earthy, and turned piney when grinded. I was really surprised with smoke, it was very smooth, no harsh at all. No special taste. After almost a month of curing, buds started to smell like a real lemon, leaving sour aftertaste in mouth. After grinding it smells lemon with pine notes. Absolutely fantastic.
***EFFECT***(after month of curing)
Effects creep in very slow, after about 5-10 minutes. As soon as you think that it will not get you high, you get slapped in the face. Everything starts with strong euphoria, colors change, sounds change. You feel rush of happiness, everything is just great. High comes in waves. stronger than previous. You think you have reached peak, but it just keeps getting stronger. After first few waves, you start to laugh your ass off. Also you become very talkative, nobody can stop you. Also it can change effects really fast. One minute you are laying on a couch ready to sleep, minute after you feel rush of energy and are ready for any physical activity. Greatest thing to do while high, is to listen to music and dance, its just something incredible. High lasts 1.30h. After it you feel sleepy. And if you have smoked for whole day, it will make you feel very tired, and you can sleep like a baby. But if you overcame that feeling, you can continue doing stuff. Doesn't make you feel hungry, but i you tried some food, you just cant stop. Overall, its good strain for smoking in company, in nature, evening walk, holidays, car cruising, listening or creating music. Would not recommend for serious meeting and stuff, as it will just make you giggly.
***FINAL***
Amazing strain, pleasure to deal with it , from grow to smoke. If you want to truly enjoy growing, this strain is for you. I'll give it 10/10, great job @FastBuds , the best for reason. Thanks to everyone who helped me and followed through grow. Grow dat shit, smoke dat shit. Dedicated to my boy NA, get free soon. Peace.
Gained a lot of experience with this grow. Learned to SCROG, that i will use in upcoming grows. Read a lot of literature during growing, learned a lot of new things. Thanks to everyone. Peace.
