California Kush

Terp_Djiny First time grow this strain. To let the seed germinate, i put it in a chamomile tea bath. then on a damp paper towel. Last but not least, when the root is visible. the seed is placed in the medium. The first week is over, in just two days all seeds have germinated. At the end of the first week, all seedlings are about 5cm high.

Terp_Djiny In the second week, the seedlings grew about 3 cm. The first pair of leaves has formed. I think they will like their new home with the new lighting. A few more days until the lamps arrive.

Terp_Djiny Day 17: Today the new lamp arrived. I took the chance to repot the small plants into larger pots. At the end of the third week i noticed a slight over-fertilization of the soil. Then I rinsed the little ones with 2 liters of water.

Terp_Djiny The plants grow slowly but steadily. At the end of week 4 I decided to 'fim' one of the plants. Another one is going to be topped and the last one is growing only with LST.

Terp_Djiny At day 33 I topped Plant 3. Plant 1 looks nice after it has been fimmed last week. In the end of the 5 week you can see the results of topping and fimming.

Terp_Djiny This week i watch the growth and tie the ladies down. At the end of the week i tie them down again. I Think next week i start to feed them with Nutrients.

Terp_Djiny This week I start fertilizing, initially only half of the stated values. The growth is nice to watch and challenging to keep the shoots down.

Terp_Djiny This week i tied down a few shoots and cut out a few leaves. At the end of the week, i think the plants have accepted the fertilizer well and the growth is increasing.

Terp_Djiny Still watch the growth and cut off large awnings in the meantime. On day 64 i tied down the second plant. the next morning i saw that the trunk was kinked and torn with the bend..

Terp_Djiny This week i only removed the large sun sails to give the lower shoots some light. I also increased the amount of fertilizer a little. Let them grow.

Terp_Djiny The plants need more and more water, but they also counter this with enormous growth. I always removed the big leaves to let more light shine through.

Terp_Djiny This week i only cut out the big leaves to get more light on the lower shoots. I also think that i will switch the lighting to bloom in the next 14 days.

Terp_Djiny All plants were thinned out a little below. Since not much light was able to reach these shoots. Now we give them a week or two before we go into bloom.

Terp_Djiny So this week is the last of the vegetation. Time for the change. I first reduce the growth fertilizer and the air humadity. One of the three makes a slightly offended impression.

Terp_Djiny Start the flowering. I adjusted the fertilizer ratio and increased the lighting to 300 watts. The photos were always taken from the same instinct.

Terp_Djiny The first hairs formed in the second flowering week. Stretching is still very manageable approx. 6cm The water consumption increases. Grow on!

Terp_Djiny In the middle of the week I defoliated the three plants. Some leaves have come down. Furthermore i have adjusted the fertilization scheme again and now i will watch the blooming.

Terp_Djiny The shoots stretch differently, which is not unusual for a plant. Different colors can be seen among the plants. I don't know why. Is it the phenotypes?

Terp_Djiny The week got off to a good start and the plants are increasingly consuming more water. The nutrient ratio is also in a good balance. Let's wait for harvest. They look great!

Terp_Djiny At the end of the last week, a slight nutrient deficit appeared to have developed. it was probably due to the ph value. It is observed that it does not get worse. Wait and see how it goes on.

Terp_Djiny At the beginning of the week it can be seen that the pistils in all depths of the plant begin to turn brown. The number of flowering weeks makes it easy to estimate when the plants can now be rinsed or when the harvest is approaching.

Terp_Djiny Today i decided to flush the deposited minerals out of the earth. The final bloom comes closer. The nutrients from the medium are rinsed out so that the buds do not taste chemically or even hideously. Day 154: In a few days its time for harvest. I think about wednesday or thursday.

Terp_Djiny This is the last week of flowering. I look at the microscope every day to see how the trichomes change color in order to get the best possible time for the harvest. I only poured them with water until day 154 and now I'm putting them under a bit of stress.

Terp_Djiny I learned a few things about plants during this grow. With this grow alone I got to know three different phenotypes. The different training methods didn't make much difference. The first plant has 180g, the second 200g and the third 192g. I'll use bubblebags to make my first hash from the leftovers. During the harvest and the fine cutting, the plants flooded the house with a sweet, lemony scent. I am surprised by the taste and the effect in a few weeks. In addition to the yield of the harvest, I made 6.7g hash from the waste (about 80g). with the help of Bubblebags. That Kush has changed astonishingly. It is just as mild as at the beginning but offers a really pleasant high. The taste has something of fresh berries mixed with mango and papaya. Still, it has the usual tart, earthy aromas. I am completely satisfied and can only recommend this strain.
