Day 6, second set of leaf are starting to come out nicely. May give her a good watering tonight as had some hot days. Loving this strain Day 7 really growing so fast now, gave her a good watering today using the RQS organic grow tables mixture as hasn't had one since planted. Slug pellets down. Day 8 seemed to enjoy her watering last night and a lovely hot day today. Looking healthier every day. Day 9 had a really big thunderstorms today so had the bottle over her for some protection. Plant is growing really well, she 10cm tall. Got my organic compost tea brewing for about 3 months now, looking really dark and has a powerful smell. I'll take some photos tomorrow to show you. Day 10 really hot weather today, seems to love it. Keep moving her around the garden to get all the sun. 15cm tall, gave her some support and some netting for protection Day 11 got some nice photos today, weather up to 32c today. Gave her, her first organic feed today 50ml to 1l so 5%. Hope to up to this to 10% in veg and up to 15%-25% in flower. Day 12 Amazing weather again. She seems a bit slow on the growth. But over all very happy. Day 13 mostly raining all day today. Day 14 got some lovely photos today, weather not the best again. Had grown a little.

Day 15 gave a feed today again, up the dose to 20%. Hopefully this will be okay. Put some nice photos today, nice weather. Day 16 daylight have seem to been coming to close very early, all of a sudden. Got some sunshine on wether report next week. Day 17 starting to show growth along the sides. Had a lot of rain today, good job I used a smart pot for drainage!!! Day 18 I think she is growing a little slower that the one under light. Not sure if it cause we've had some horrible weather, not to much direct sunlight. Got some photos today. Still using RQS mixture half way down Day 19 nice weather today, plenty of direct sunlight today. Very happy about that. Temp this night was lower that normal about 12c. Day 20 growing so much taller than under the lights, maybe cause she's in a bigger pot. Day 21 got some lovely photos today, she starting to show real growth down sides. Seems very healthy.

Day 22 start of a new week, weather is reported a lot better this week, only got a month an a half left of summer really, less than that maybe. Hopefully she will flower soon. Beautiful plant. Day 23 plenty of sun today, really starting to grow some hight. Not much bushing out going on yet. Day 24 bit more growth on the side shoots. Loving the shape of her growth, I reckon she will be tall, and quite stretched out when flowering. Still no signs of any flowering. Day 25 weather really good today temps back up to 24. Doesn't seem to be keeping it up. Day 26 mostly couldy today, temps still warm. Day 27 organic feed today, Same strength. RQS mixture. Heavy Strom, raining all day. Day 28 slot better weather again, wish it would stay like this for the full harvest. I started these to late I think. Still no sign of flowering on this plant.

Day 29 weather has carried on today, lovely sunshine. Plant is growing so tall, sides are starting to bush out. Really looking forward to this harvest. Day 30 starting to see some pre flowers now :). This plant is so much bigger than the other two. See what happens with the yield. Day 31 weather is not the best today and think we've had any sun, just rain and more rain. Day 32 still raining this morning is meant to stop this afternoon, But who know. Really starting to see some real growth. Day 33 really hope it will be finished before the end of October. That's when the wether will really drop temperature. Day 34 another rainy start to the day today, meant to brighten up later though. Plant is showing lovely sign of flowering in now. Day 35 end of week 5. Should see some real growth next week, the start of the stretch. I reckon she may grow quite tall.

Day 56 weather is still holding up nicely, not as much direct sunlight as I would like but seems to be doing well. Day 57 really starting to fatten up, buds look like they are going to be massive, gave normal 35% organic feed to 1 ltr of water. Day 58 cloudy today, raining this morning, to be far for most the day. Was hoping it was going to be dry for a while to get the most of the feeds. Day 59 put her on a couple of slaps today, trying to get as much of the sun as possible. It come in my garden at a high level over the house. Plenty of sun forecasted for the next ten days or so. Still waiting to see some real buding to start. Day 60 these flowers are starting to shine. Plant is starting to get a lovely diesel smell, beautiful. Gave her drink today, just the normal. Seemed very dry soil, drinking well. Day 61 amazing plant as always, keep on trying to make to growth at the bottom where I have trimmed. Just want to give more and more. Day 62 week 9 to a end, this plant has truly fatten up by the end of the week. Weather has been amazing again.

Day 63 weather is beautiful at the beginning of the week and is meant to be the dryest month we had for years next month. Looking forward to that!!! Fatten this girl up some more!!! Day 64 gave her a feed today up food up to 4% feed to 1 ltr of water. I always use the rain water I recycle for the garden. Can see some real size in all the flowers this week. Starting to fill out nicely. Day 65 still getting plenty of sunlight every day, raising the plant was a amazing idea to get the most of that evening sunlight. Hoping she will be ready before the sun gone completely. Day 66 keep trimming the growth at the bottom, don't want any of the popcorn buds. taking a 1 ltr of rain water everyday and feeding once a week or maybe twice. Day 67 really have seen some size in the buds today. Starting to plumb up nicely!! Just plenty of sun for her, this Indian summer they say!!! Beautiful Day 68 amazing weather again today, she seems to be doing lovely, I really want to get to best buds I can off her. Thinking about getting some organic worm casting. Give her that natural boost. Day 69 end of week 10 still going to strong, can't see any signs of harvesting yet. No where near!! See what the next week does. Loads of rain forecasted! 😒 It will be what it will be, they say!!! Looking forward to staring another week!!

Always go by the trichome color to determine harvest. Use a 40x jewelers loupe to check the trichomes. Most growers will harvest with mostly cloudy/milky with 5% to 30% ambers showing. In a pinch it's usually safe to harvest once a few ambers show up on the calyx but may give you an intense head type high. The more amber the more of the body high you will get. I would put her some where slightly sheltered from the rain until harvest she needs less light during the ripening stage plus she has a nice open/airy growth style so hopefully mildew won't become an issue.👍

Day 70 really are getting fat now. Is such a leafy strain in itself. Love how the main clone is so big and bushy, can't wait to see all the buds pop. Day 71 weather is rain, rain and a little bit more. Thinking about putting a roof over the top for a little potetion. The normal UK weather is back. We had a good late run tho. Can't wait to start this plant earlier next year. Day 72 gave her a feed today upped it to 5% to 1ltr want her to really start to pop out! Beautiful to grow. Weather, been raining all morning and starting to brighten up this afternoon. Day 73 had to remove the top bud as saw a little fluff deep in there, weather is getting so cold at the moment at night, may more her into a shelter and get a heater for the finishing weeks. Won't be able to take her as long as wanted. Looks amazing tho!!!!!! Had to move her to to the greenhouse, she doesn't like this rainy weather!!!! Day 74 had to take a little bit more off today, this evening weather is so cold at the moment. Meant to get warming in a week or so but don't think she will make it till then. Got a heater in there and a dehumidifier to help. May have to cut her all down a bit before I wanted. Will keep checking her all the time. Smells amazing very sweet with a hint of diesel at the moment. Want that diesel smell to over power the sweet sugars. She does look a bit weird with the top cut off, but had to do what I had to do. Removed all of the larger leaves to help keep down humidity. Day 75 weather is so rainy today, had to give her a pre trim of all the larger leaves today. Buds have really popped in the last couple of day. Kicking myself that I didn't start it early, we had a amazing run of good weather last month. Wish it was the finishing month. But hay ho. Give her the first flush today 1 ltr of just rain water. Day 76 end of week 11 what a week this has been, really have seen them buds fatten an fatten up. Don't think I'm going to run her for another week, thinking about cropping tomorrow evening. The weather was not on my side at the end of this grow. I believe she has done amazing, was truly a dream to grow.

Was a amazing plant to grow and really did start to fatten up at the end, just wish I had a couple more weeks of nice weather to let her fill out a bit more. Co-plants: these plant I think did help with keeping her shaded on the soil in the hot weather to keep in moist and stop it drying out. But I think the plants work both ways, in the wetter weather it would help it keep dry when it would have these heavy raining day we had. Really do recommend these plants to uses if you are going to do a outdoor wild grow. Don't think you need them in pots, I wouldn't uses them again in pot but would use if I was going to grow in the ground. Veg: it didn't grow very big until we started getting to week 5, the root ball was a lot smaller than I thought it was going to be as did get much grow early on in veg. Maybe it would of been a better idea to use a smaller pot or repot during veg. It the purely feed rain water til we started to see some flowers. Flowering: this was when she really did start to grow so much, the first two, three weeks she just went up and up stretching for the sky's. Didn't see the sides start coming out till we got pass the first three weeks, then week four of flowering she just pop up like planets sitting around a sun. Really was a beautiful plant. They all found they places where they wanted to sit and soak up that sun by the time we got to end of week 5. They sat so beautiful getting fatter and fatter till we got to the end. Didn't get the take them as long as I would of liked, the weather started to drop so much by the time we got the the middle of the second week. I had to move her in to the green house at the bring so week 11, to try help her with the weather but it was to much hight humidity and low temperatures. I started to find a little bit of bud root on her, had to take her down so I could safe what we have. Harvesting: was really easy to harvested this plant as gave her a pre trim couple of days before I cut her down. Didn't get a lot of trim leaves, the buds where all popped out so was very quick. Really nice bud, big as well. Will dry for 1 week in cardboard box, then jar for 2-3 weeks. Will update when ready. Nice dry and fluffy buds cause of early harvest, I let dry for 5 day and I was nice and ready for the jars, buds been in jar for three days now opening ever day for half an hour to an hour. Smoked: really nice sweet deisel taste, loving high stays with you for a long time. You can just smoke at nice tasting joint and chill out for 2 hours after relaxing sitting on the sofa. Flicking through GrowDiaries Hope everyone enjoyed my first dairy. What a fun grow it has been Thank you Smithsgrow420
