This Afghan Kush is a late plant, cold weather is not here yet, but you can feel it closer in the night, temperature is going lower...
Im going to transplant directly to an 25 l tex-pot trying to maximize growth and minimize stress, but would like a 4 way plant or someting similar at least, so Topping is expected, dont know if LST lets see how she handles all params... But, at the moment, is one of that extremely vigorous plants...
Seedsman Description :
The sumptuous result of crossing an old school classic with a unique, modern strain, Afghan Kush has roots in both the past and the present.
Its Afghan lineage means that this is an indica dominant variety with phenomenal resin production and distinct hash aromas.
Afghan Kush also takes after its classic parentage in that it excels when grown outdoors; its resistance to pests and disease and its short flowering time of just 8-9 weeks mean that cultivating in warm climates can offer incredible results.
The flavours of this strain can be directly attributed to its LA Kush parentage. An earthy mix of pine and menthol, with a hint of lemon, the notorious West Coast taste is clear and immensely satisfying.
As with most indica varieties, Afghan Kush offers a whole body relaxation effect without losing the narcotic buzz of a high THC strain.

Transplant, added Micro Vita to the soil ( like 8 grams /25 l ) which is Canna Terra Pro as usual, and will let her grow only with Root Stimulator this week, plus the nutrients strored in the soil..
I hope she will turn in to a nice bush ... At the moment, growing really fast, lets see how much she can grow until flowering ^^
The Afghan Kush recovered nicely, from topping and started to feed Vegetation Nutrients plus root stimulator Deeper Underground...
That huge leaves amaze me, i find them really beautiful, and the structure its developing is bushy
Now a great question... When she will start to flower ? I hope the later the better, so she can grow a little more :)
Take care !!!
Good vibez!
Heyyyy !! Explosive growth this week, dark green colour and i can say its one of the most beautiful plants i have seen, really love that leaves :)
Feeding schedule: Nutrients / Water , 1l every morning, feeding 1 of each 2 irrigations, but watering every day as usual. Green explosion 1ml/l one time per week + TopVeg 2 ml/l each 2 days
Same feeding as last week but more water each irrigation, so it is recieving more nutrients.
Seems like AK likes a lot of water, and im spraying when the sun does not hit the plant directly, before a good UV session hahaha
Bending almost every day with strings...
Thought she would be flowering when 4 weeks old or so, but no signs yet, so she will grow even more before flowering... Nice bush expected ^^
The leaves ermind me like the BB i had last year, huge with a lot of tips, growing new 9 tips leaves at the moment ...
Take care guys!! and thank you for reading :)
Good vibezzzz
Hey GD !!! :)
The plant continues growing like there is no tomorrow ^^
One more week of vegetation to the counter...
Rised a little the nutrients, with one application of Green Explosion per week (1ml/l) together with Top Veg(2 ml/l when mixed together, but 2.5ml/l when used alone)
Beast mode #ON
Sappp GD!!
I love to improvise, so looking at the plant thought she will be needing some support for the flowering phase, and had some bamboo sticks that would form a nice structure, so thats the result, it is not like an Scrog net, but similar, the importatn thing is that the branches will have some help because despite branches and stems are really fatty dont want to cry for a broken branch hahaha
I hope you like it, and hey, have an awesome day !!!
Gooz Vibezzz
Heyy whats up people!!!
This week same schedule, but a littlle more of TopVeg, and she is preflowering nicely and starting to build upp some flowers ..
Some rainy days but the sun came again, and now its like spring temperatures... Hot sun when there is daylight and pretty cold at night ...
The plant reached the structure, or at least most of the plant, and some bending should help her too...
Monster bush here, im really happy ^^ I hope everything continues flawless... This plant DOES NOT SMELL, unless you rub the stems that shows musky/hash/spicy tones, its really stealthy i love that...
Green explosion applied one time per week as usual...
Take care GD!! Have a nice week :)
Week of growing more hairs, its starting to fill all the branches, the lollypoping made effect, so all buds are in the upper side of the plant.
Weather is getting rainy sometimes, and windy, but not too much RH, because here, we have dry winds ...
Feeding: 2ml/l Top Candy + 2ml/l Top Bloom and once a week 1ml/l Big One , 1 of each 2 irigations with only water as usual
Tiny tiny tips burnt in some leaves, so she is saying im eating enought hahaha im not raising nutes until next week :) But it is not even noticeable but next week photos will show it..
Good vibez P30PL3 !!! And take care :) I wish you a happy croptober 😎
It has been a rainy week, as you can appreciate in the photos ...
Started the week with a Big One dose plus Top Bloom and TopCandy, but a little burnt appeared, so not rising nutrients so much this week, because also, when not sunny, this plant does not eat too much, so raised until 3ml/l at the end of the week...
The clone is getting bigger, and really healthy .. Not feeded, only root stimulator Deeper Undergroung and new soil, all it needs at the moment..
You can see some purple appearing... This week temperatures went really low and the thermall oscillation range is wide...
AK is growing more hairs :)
She is starting to getting fat, at the begginning of this week, it was raining, but in the middle of the week, sunny days are appearing, and she is loving it, drastically increased eating levels, in 1-2 days, lower leaves started to yellow, but i noticed soon and gave a good dose with 4ml/l Top BLoom + some carbohydrates, Top Candy 2ml/l, and now she is lovin it.
That purple colours appearing...no words... Simply a blessing, even more beautiful :D
Last videos are about what i think are Chemtrails, like ie said before, the week started with rainy days, but when the sun came, this kind of biodegradable material appeared again like it is usual, it could be identified as spiderwebs if you dont look closer, but when you touch it is like soap and disappears... Guys and Ladies, let me know what you think if you want to stick a comment :)
Take Care GD !!!
It has been a week of getting bigger flowers, and gaining weight, sunny days alternating with clouds but generally sunny, and the nights are getting colder, getting around 10-12ºC
But overall, nice weather this week, is not as sunny and hot as summer but still accepatable weather ^^
Feeeding more nutrients, because the plant started to eat a lot, and im supporting that, for 2 weeks i think, and then probably she will get the final flush
More purple tones, and some lower leaves and fan leaves are yellowing a bit, which was reversed when rised the nutrients, but not completely as the plant is close to the end ..
Talkig about future harvest, the later the better... But we are in the last days of October/ beggining of November and Cold/Rainy weather should come soon, but i hope not too soon hahaha
Thank you for checking the week, and you know, have a fantastic week !!
Good Vibes !
Cold cold week, with intermitent rain, and the last feedings,
The AK is yellowing and rushing to flower, but, there are still white hairs, and the fattening is not complete, so im flushing until the end (1-2 weeks)
Im looking for a narcotic effect so im letting her more time, because no bugs around, the THC layer has increased this week and you can smell the therpenes a little more, really musky-fruty with hints of mango
It has reained on the plant last 3 weeks intermitently, but as the buds are not so compact as a Skunk, and the thc layer covering the flowers i find it can survive more, without problems
Never expected to have an Indica the 10th of November but, im happy with that fact, she started to grow 7th of August soo a late Afghan Kush ^^
The colours are incredible, thanks Nature and Sedsman for this gift !! One of the most beautiful plants i have ever seen in person..
Good VIbez GD !!!!
Thanks for checking, and bros, remember, roll one for the Cold days :D
Another freezing cold week !!
Before having this plant, i thought that a plant would never survive with this temperatures... but this Afghan Kush proved im wrong, whats amazing because this plants strenght is remarkable, the buds i noticed, are not developing as fast as in September/October, basic grower logic but we are having between 8-14 ºC during the day and 2-5ºC at night..
Wider range of colours, i spot like Purple, Deep green, and even shades of Violet and blue, its incredible :D
Last feedings, finished like in the middle of this week and the buds developement degree is telling me, its flush time ...
Spotted a few white aphids, but only on the leaves, so not a problem.. Having in mind the temperatures they are not lasting so much hahaha its the good thing
Last weeks of life, and i suppose she will be yellowing more during the next week.
THe photos are progresive, so the first photos were taken at the beginning of the week and so ...
Have a Nice Week Guys :D
Another cold week, we are having around 2ºC Minimum temperature, and its really cold at night( I mean, for Spain, because if some Nortern people hear this may be laughting at me hahaha)
But there is a range of hours when then sun hits directly the plant if its not cloudy, like 6h-8h, this if i dont have to roll out the awning, so the plant is protected when raining.
Did not feed the plant until past the middle of the week, because i ovserbed that the flowers were developing slowly as im accostummed, probably because of the low temperatures, so i decided to give her the last feeding and start the flush at the end of this week, because i felt the plant was like at least 2 weeks from proper harvest, and still developing the flowers with white hairs... Im looking for something narcotic with a nice Therpenoid Profile so the later the better in my opinion, but without passing he Ripper Line hahaha :)
So last feeding was like a fattening one... Higher Dose of nutrients for the plant, and later added some Micro Vita to the soil, 3grams, and until the end with water and some carbs in 1/2 irrigations ...
What amazed me is the strenght of this plant, surviving these really low temperatures, growing a little slowlier, but without problems or buds, amazing plant, as amazing as beautiful, im in love with the colours..
So i hope you enjoyed reading this week Growmmies :)
Have a nice week and dont forget to roll one ^^
Good vibezz.
Flush Week !! More yellowing and colder tempereatures...
Feeding is 1 irrigation plain water, and the next with 2-3 ml Top Candy, giving the plant the Carbohydrates it needs, but no more nutrients this week. Eating way less water than before.
Aprox 1 week until harvest, and the end of the next week probably is going to be sunny.
So not much more to say fellas, sooo as usual, Take care and Good VIbes !!!
Amazing plant overall. This plant was germinated in August and ended in December, thats crazy ^^.
Very good resilience, made it until December, having near 0 ºC at night durign last weeks.
Buds are frosty, the purple colours appeared when temperatures were under 16ºC aprox, starting from the stems extending to leaves and flowers.
Flavour and smell, started really fruity/musky, transitioning to a less fruity, more musky/hash smell and flavour, but when smoking, the sweet flavour appears at the end, leaving a nice sweet aftertaste, but it stays on the palate, not in the tongue.
Nice calyxes/leaves ratio, she could have gained more weight, but its enought, having in mind temperatures, sun hours, and more importatn, quality.
During vegetation/early flowering it branched a lot, and stretched more than 100% when flowering, developing central colas, which in this plant, the buds are not forming a single cluster like other plants, the buds have a separation between each other, so thats interesting for plants in cold or not so sunny latitudes.
After curing the buds in jars, gotta say im really happy about how it tastes and how gets you high: It is psychoactive at the begginning, and let you focus sooo much on what you are doing, like you dont care what happens around hahaha, and it transition into a body relaxation that goes heavier and heavier until you can fall sleep.

Seedsman Afghan Kush Harvest
---------------------------------------
Harvest day 6th of December, 6/12/2019
Germination: 6/8/2019
Weight on the scales : 219g, weighted after 10 days of drying, but there are stems and some leaves, not a lot, but only bud would be a little less weight.
Flowering weeks: 10 weeks
Veg weeks: 7 weeks
Fluxh weeks: 2 weeks
----------------------------------------
Harvest was a little aerlier than expected ( flowers development), because i spotted some mold points on some buds, like 5 in total, lost few flowers but a cleaning trim was done after. I was checking every day, cut the plant inmediatly, also beacuse RH was rising, and also some rain was coming after a couple of sunny days.
Production could have been better, yes, but, started to flower really late too, so that allowed the plant to grow a little more also, so that added some branches and space for buds, the thing that i notice is that they could have grow more in summer, but its simply a blessing that, this plant, made it until December hahaha :D
Loved to eat a lot, high doses always. Noticed extra vigorousity when adding rich micro nutrients.
Trully special plant, the range of purple/dark purple/blue purple colours showed will make me remember this plant.
The flowers pack an extraordinary aroma, after 3 weeks in jars, the flavour is: hash/fruity/cream and it smells like: mangoes/fresh fruits and hash/resin.
I hope you like the diary Growmmies, thanks to all the people arounde here, for the views, advices, comments and likes, it will be always a pleasure :)
Take care guys.....Good Vibez !!! and wish you Happy Hollydays !!!!
Dont forget to roll one if you can ^^.
Music is from Alfa Mist : Mulago.
@OutForReal, Heyy Spinner whats up bro!!! How are the things going on your tropical paradise, buddie? 😁
Ohhh Thank youuuuu :D Im soo happy to hear that 😀
Gotta check your grows in depth when im having more time, i see you have really new cool plants, you never stops, what a madness hahaha
I love how dark she is! I think its the cold night. I've heard Afghan can take some cold and grow is proving that right. Good luck with the rest of your grow!
@NorCalCloset, Yeahh i also think so bro :) That dark purple is getting darker and darker every day :P What a gift ^^
Ohh i understand, it should be way harsher there in Hindu/Afghan mountains...But dont know if she could survive in northern latitudes but Mediterranenan/California climate for sure by the way she is handling it, hahah its so cool, u gotta try this strain bro :D And the smell is musky/mango , wthhhh cant wait hahaha
Thank you so much !!! Take Careee @NorCalCloset
@DankyMoon, Ohh thanks Danky !! Yeah the soil is Canna Terra Pro soil, it worked very well in all of my grows, it is difficult to overwater with its composition, a lot of air in the roots ^^
Yeah sooo strong, its exploding in growth at the moment, im in love with how she looks 😍 Big fan leaves are beautiful
Blessings to you too bro ! Hope u the best
Good vibezzz
What's that u put in the bottom of the bag? I was thinking about that the other day. Got a cheese and another candy cane about to sprout and I was thinking of putting sum sort of rocks at the bottom of my bags. What are u using?
@Jerrylarrydalton, Ohhh okay brou, it is perlite, my father had some in the garden and i usually pick some, it helps to keep humidity, if in one layer at the top not mixed with the soil... And mixed, it helps aireation beacuse it is hydrophobic, and when used in the bottom of the pot it helps to lower moisture, working as a very good drainage layer...
Always having in mind the soil im using will never get too much moisture as its composition is really airy
:)
@RastaMouse, Yeah a true killer mix from the OLd School :X, chose it because of the medical properties, but i prefer to smoke over making oil but by what you are saying. if i have chance im tring some oil ^^
Take care brou!! Good vibes
