Got the seed late 2019 sometime after seeing an ad for it, can say I am looking forward to this grow.
Started on a Tuesday.
I hope to see her peak though the coco line by next week, so the diary is nice and organised.
Success!
This week has been fairly standard with my grows thus far, nice fast and stable growth, beautiful hues of green and the promise of potential.
*Awaits the inevitable cockup*
This week was a breeze, she's growing at a nice rate and no major issues showing. Another easy start to the grow so far!
I plan on topping her and having about 4 maind colas with 2 branches per cola. Any more will just be a bonus.
Planned on topping her mid week and it ended up being done later then originally wanted but her growth was slightly behind where I wanted her.
Though it's less that her growth was behind and more of how stout this plant is.
Rhizotonic is just as good as Bio•Heaven was for me in my earlier grows, literally leaves no chance for stress build up in plants.
Early week I'm allowing her to just grow before I start the LST around midweek.
I've read that this strain favours heavy CalMag feedings, so I'm upping her feed and optimising the pH for complete absorption.
I will prune the oldest leaves at the end of the week and prep her for flowering soon.
Just a lot of poking at her this week, trying to keep branch dominance low if possible while keeping her growth on track.
Slight defoliation on Friday to allow more light to pass through the canopy.
Was actually the Sunday...
I'm going to pinch the smaller branches to allow knots to be made, Should increase their potential yield.
She will get 13 hours sleep tonight and 12 hours following, shifted light off time back an hour and light on forward by 4.
Turned on the bloom lights early this morning so I didn't make another blunder like the last grow xD
Gave her 1ml of Bio•Bloom and Top•Max on the Sunday to kick start her development...maybe, probably not...
She had 13 hours of darkness to kick start the flowering.
Her growth as been unexpectedly explosive in all directions...
Considering I've not been feeding her overly consistently.
Just a slow week of light pruning and waiting for the buds to develop properly.
Intense stretch, long gaps between nodes and long thing leaves she is showing a lot of Sativa qualities.
Last week of stretch, she's been really going for it over the whole 3 weeks...
I've been taking a few really low down buds as shes grown a little taller than I was ready for 😅
The smells coming from her are amazing, a super sweet orange citrus with a hint of mint! Absolutely divine!
I'll keep taking a leaf every now and then but if I can manipulate them to keep more for longer I will do that first.
I need to keep tying her branches down shes too damn tall! But her buds are looking delicious 😋
Lowering the feeds but keeping the bloom going higher.
The specifications of this strain state the avegerege flowering time is 60 - 70 days so we will see how she does.
Just taking one or two invasive leaves that cannot be moved under or behind any other. Trying to keep growth up while she's got plenty to do.
Messing with the nutritients a little, no nute burn but I lowered too much too quick. Though it probably helped more than hurt her, Lowering the over all levels for a week to prevent overfeeding and more nuts burn build up.
New growth on the buds, she's going to start thickening up real nice soon 😊
This week and next I am planning on keeping the feed going though on the next I will start dropping it to about 25% and allow a long 2 week flush.
Hitting the 60 - 70 day mark so I'll start flushing her let her use up her own resources a bit.
Noticed a bit of bud turned brown and very squishy, turned out it was molded had it removed and a little of the surrounding flower.
If the infection continues on to tomorrow with no signs of stopping I'll be harvesting a week early.
I wonder if giving her a dry day or two before I turn her lights off for the last time and give her 3 days of darkness will help with the drying out process, as well as cause just a little extra stress to increase potential last ditch output?
Though if this humidity stays as it is over today 80% I'll take her down this week without the dark days.
Though I am glad I didn't harvest this Monday week as Thursday to Saturday was the swelling phase, all buds look x2 as big.
The humidity was killer yesterday but seemingly tapered off I'll see you all next week!
Smoke Report.
Seed Bank: Barney's Farm
Did it autoflower?: No, Photoperiod.
From seed to harvest date: 111 days.
Dry Yield: 164g
High/Effect Duration:
10/10
A strong, stoning high with a great body buzz that lasts the whole two hours!
BAG APPEAL:
9/10
Beautiful nugs too good for a simple baggy.
THE GROWTH:
9/10
The growth of this strain was ridiculously fast, explosive and robust. She had little issue taking up 80% of the growth room in a matter of months.
THE SMELL:
8/10
A bouquet of citrus, subtle mint as well as the over powering pungent skunk you get smacked in the face by straight after the above fades. It's a strong one...
THE SMOKE/VAPE:
10/10
Vaped:
Pure and smooth vapour, onset was within a minute with the body buzz starting it all off, with the couch lock, sounds are so much more interesting, a wake and bake with your local song birds is the shit! And while fishing creates this inescapable serenity. Just be safe!
Smoke:
TBD
OVERALL RATE SCALE:
9/10
An amazing strain, great strong highs, so much so I'm forgetting how else to compliment her.
The grow was a breeze 0 issues until inevitability stuck.
Great, STRONG smell.
Music enhancing, gaming can go one of two ways very helpful to most unhelpful.
Would recommend for people who enjoy fine experiences!
This entire grow has been an amazing experience, with near perfect conditions until the very end weeks and only a single bud loss.
Upon drying I have come to the conclusion that the lack of popcorn control may be the reason for the low yield numbers.
The buds are numerous but lacking in my desired density, while the lower buds are quite wispy they are plenty enough for a bowl in my vape! At the same time they are also highly resinous from the smallest popcorn bud to the largest top bud.
Spectacular high and it's only been dried. Let's see how it is cured for a little while 😌
So my future grows will contain more bud removal until the start of week 4 of flowering.
Thank you to all that join me on this grow!
