All in all the Kalashnikova has been a great strain to grow. It is a lovely looking plant, visually attractive with buds that begin like popcorns and swell up into beautiful big clumps spread across the branches. Short and stout and lovely to watch it grow.

I have used Bio Canna on all grows so far and have found it to be pretty good. Rarely get and burn and it’s nice that it’s plant derived.

This is my 2nd Kalashnikova, and only harvested the 1st one in late November. There are distinct differences between the two. The shape and bud formation are the same, and the grow time roughly the same. But it smells much different, unbelievable sweet if you touch the buds. Almost like if you were holding a piece of bubblegum from your mouth. I never used to believe when someone said their weed tasted sweet, but I have never smelled such an unusually sugary aroma. Although it smells beautiful, it’s nothing like the earthy, woody smell of my first kal. Also, although the buds are much longer this time, they are far less dense and almost airy. Resin seems confined to the buds which are quite sticky, but the surrounding leaves weren’t that frosty or sticky when trimming. I guess although bigger, I will rate this as slightly behind Kal no.1. Will need to update after the cure to see if that sweetness is transferred into the smoke. All in all Kal has been fun and although I would grow it again, I have a few I would like to try ahead of it. Update - I have changed the “taste like” icons from sweet to earthy. Although the plant and buds smelled super sweet and fruity during the grow, the cured buds do not. They smell and smoke exactly like my first Kal. Earthy, woody, musky and rich is the best description. I really like the strong taste. It stays in your nose for hours afterwards. Best smoked with a dry drink like a ginger beer or ice water. Pretty strong shit! Not a real creeper, comes on pretty quick and lasts around 90 mins. Another week of curing before the boveda packs go in, the taste can get a touch better with another week or 2

Looking great. I am inspired! Gonna take more leaves off my plants too.

@Med_in_Tropic, thank you med👍🙏

@Shooey, I think if it’s watering, leaves would be droopy. And if it leads to root rot it wouldn’t be just light green. You would loose leaves. Tip burns, a tad strong on nutes. Yogurt - theoretically it doesn’t make a difference. My preference is for the fruity type. I hope that part of the fruity smell get in the buds. LOL. It make real difference in potency and how buds get wet and sticky.

@Med_in_Tropic,awesome med, and a happy new year to you too mate. Thanks as always for your advice. So you don’t reckon it’s the watering hey?? I think you are right about pheno for sure, you can see my first diary was also a Kalashnikova from the same order from greenhouse seeds,, and there are vast differences not only in colour, but also bud density and shape. I am feeding only organic bloom boost from bio canna, as this is for mid flowering onwards I am guessing it should be low nitrogen?? I am getting crispy tips on the leaves too so I think this usually means my feed is a tiny on the strong side but nothing to be too concerned as the rest seems really healthy. I would like to try the yoghurt. Is it pure / natural plain the best? Just mix 4 - 1 with water right? Cheers med

I think people mix in genetics and purposele mutate plants to suit main market in Europe. So with different environmental cues than what they were designed for, they behave weirdly. Flowering too fast is not bad. Some vegged for three months at 12 hours. Most Just hermie.

@Shooey, just discovered concept of doubling chromosomes to get yield. If it is public now, it means the avant garde people had been doing this for a while. This makes the variation bigger Cheers.

@Med_in_Tropic, I think you are spot on med,, these commercial seeds are very sensitive. I even think further mutation with ruderalis (auto) has even more variables. Watching various diaries I notice a lot of differences in pheno’s, bud density and yields. All the best Med👍

So frosty! I admire your self control mate. I would have trouble in keeping her for a couple more weeks. She looks so fine. LOL

@Med_in_Tropic, thanks Med👍 I have been a bit worried about this one but she seems to have picked up a lot in the last week. And thanks for your advice too. I did end up changing the water to filtered and started shading her after mid day, as I think it may have been some heat stress. Because I am force flowering by light deprivation each night, it is finishing flower in the hottest longest days of the year, probably not ideal but does help with the quicker harvest time,, I’m very happy about that😊

@EZgrower, hi EZ,, thanks very much mate. I really appreciate the positive thoughts. I definitely prefer joints my friend. I really savour the taste and enjoy the time out for a few minutes, also after 20 odd years of smoking I can’t really handles the bongs anymore,, getting old I guess😃. I will keep up to date on your diaries from now on,, all the best bro👍

Kalashnikova is just perfect overall as a strain and your plant too.
