Yea baby, starting a new strain that I have wanted to grow since I herd its name, and the good people over at MSNL hooked it up. MSNL has been nothing but top notch, fast & discreet shipping. I will be running Aurora Inovations Soul line nutrient system, the same as her sister plant. I'm going to bush her out, and give her a 8-9 week veg if she is to be a short- medium hight. She dropped within 6 hours and is now in a paper towel on top of the flower tent which is at 80°F. After 4 hrs. She dropped, I put her in a paper towel and 8hrs later she popped a tail do through her in a moss plug and into a plastic ziplock to keep the humidity high. So far so good.

Germination went well. The coco I'm using is made by cyco. I mixed Aurora Innovation cal-mag powder, Xtreme Gardening; Mykos & Azos into the mix, along with great white powder on the plug when I planted her into the mix. I will be giving her a feed of about 150-200 ppm once her true leaves develop some and she starts growing her 2 node hopefully by end of week. The nute mix will only be about 3-5 ml/gallon of Aurora Innovation Grow.

Gave her a light feed. She hasn't grown very much, really slow compared to other plants I've grown, kinda wierd. It might be the ph fluctuation from the feeding, going from 6.7 from the spring water to the 6.1 ph that I run my nutrients at. OR it was the fact my timer pooped out and was on a 24hr light schedule for the past week or so. No harm done to either plants I hope. Critical functions of the plant take place during dark periods and since there was no dark periods they just stayed in a sorta slow growth stasis, needless to say everything is kosher now with the new timer.

She is rolling along. Nothing new to report. I am going to up her nutrients at the end of the week. The nutrient line I'm running from Aurora innovation a has cal-mag in most of the nutrients so I dont need an extra cal-mag booster.

And then there was one in the Veg tent. Going to let her go probably a nother 3-4 weeks in veg. Going to start her training at the end of the week with her first topping. Upping her nutes this week to to around 500ppm. She is a little hungery. She is going strong, no issues as of yet.

Coming into week 6 and she has started to bounce back from a ph issue that caused a calcium deficiency. So when I feed her and water her, I flush the soil in actuality. I push a 1/2 gallon of liquid through a 1 gallon pot. Also she only gets 1/2 gallon of liquid a week until she starts sucking up more liquid faster. Usually around this time in week 5-6. Now, onto week 6 and I started her training. I took the bottom 2 sets of branches. Left the 3rd node branches and plan on topping her once more for a 4 way main and a set of branches. Looking to put her into flower in week 8 or 9. Fun times.

He is now in her final pot. 5 gallon air pot. She is growing well, has a slight cal-mag deficancys for some reason, so I uped the amount of cal mag in her feed. She also seems a bit Hungary's well so it could be a sign for needing heavy feeds. I'm going to give her 1 more week of veg before I put her into the flower tent with the Power Plant from Spliff Seeds.

She is ending on point with the 1st week of flower. She just started to streach, interested to see how much she streaches since she is a Indica plant. I'm lowing her nutes intake to around 600ppm. I had to up her cal-mag intake a little. Se sucks up as much as I give her. No issues or deficancys. She is blushing out as well. Strong sturdy plant.

Co.ing into the 2nd week of flower and she has already started putting off stigmas everywhere. She is a thick sturdy plant. She has started to streach but not a whole lot. She is slowly streaching, more of a compact structure. I added bloom to her feed this week and slowed the grow nutes. No issues or deficancys, but she is calcium hungery

She is blushing out well. Small internodal distances give tribute to her indica heritage. She has a dark green appearance, thick sturdy branches. No issues or deficancys.

Short branchy indica with sweet cream pastry smell and sweet hashy taste. Very easy to grow. Classic Indica with a bit of a long flower time, but worth the wait.

She is most definitely a night strain due to the nice body buzz. The head high is clear and not foggy. Tast is of old school hash with a sweet cream note to it. Smells like cream brule after a couple days of cure. Yeild is average at about 40 grams. The smoke is definatly quality. Long flower time of 10 weeks for an indica. Super happy with the out come, MSNL did well with these genetics. Very stable, no nanner like you see in some feminized seeds. She handled medium strength nutes and handles drought conditions well. The nugs are tight and hard, not the biggest bit hard and solid. I topped her at the 5th node and let her branch out. Next time I'll just mainline her and not have the branches. Awsome classic strain worth the money.

Super healthy plant as of this far. No smell yet, trichomes are starting to come in. Buds are everywhere, and she is very compact, small nodal distances and sturdy. Strong indica growth structure. She is happy and healthy plant, no issues or deficancys.

Yea Boyee....Halfway through the flower and this girl is puttin on some weight...Doesnt really smell like much right now. She has a faint sweet candy smell, but nothing popping out at me. Topped and branched is the way to go for this girl. Close nodal spacing is going to make nice baby leg buds.

She is on the the last week of light feeding. After this week I will be flushing her a nother 2 weeks or until she is done. She is chnking up and putting on some weight now. She is developing a sweet toffee cannabis smell. Beautiful plant as well. She is just starting to get her fade on, I dropped the night temp in an attempt to get those fall colors. No issues. Awsome indica genetics. Cant wait for the end product.

Today was her first flush....Super excited to be at this point. Over the next 2-3 weeks I will flush her 4-5 more time and then it will be harvest time. I'm Using strait spring water. Ppm is at 044. The smell is Herbal, cannabis, but undeniably sweet. She is getting chunky aswell. Her fade is coming on as well. No issues or deficancys that are not intentional.

On to week 9 and she is still throwing out stigmas everywere. A couple Amber's have popped up but no were near enough to my liking. Breeder said 8-10 weeks and that 10 week mark is more realistic. Beautiful plant super hard nugs. There is no real smell. It's kinda odd to me. Very low smell, not much cannabis smell either. I will be harvesting next week sometime. Happy with production and aesthetic appeal just wish there was more smell. 10/28 she is now harvested. She will be in the dry tent for 5-7 days depending on how fast she drys. I will give the report post dry, pre cure.
