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.

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.

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.

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.

Has anyone of you seen this before? A new shoot is created directly at the topping cut. Although two new shoots had already developed.

Yes, lol. Look at my Fromage Bleu (Barneys Blue Cheese. Week 4, bottom pic. it is now a nice branch with a beautiful big bud. I also have a bud that is Polyploid, so I'm guessing it just a genetic glitch, but IMHO i think makes for a great strain of weed.

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.

Hi thses guys looking like Springtails, they eat dead organic material. To get rid of them you can set some Predatormaites like Hypoaspis miles or Hypoaspis aculeifer. You can drown them ( taking the hole plant into a bucket) and fill it with water, then they drown in the water You have to transplant the plant after to get rid of all of them...... So its good that yo are still in vegetation satge, I think your Plant can handle it to get 30 mins her roots under water. But i would order some predator mites too

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.

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?

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.

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.

Bonjour on dirait une carence en manganèse. Une carence en manganèse détectée tôt peut se corriger en rinçant le sol avec de l’eau de pH 6 et en y ajoutant une faible solution nutritive. Il est aussi sage de s’assurer qu’il n’y ait pas une concentration trop élevée en fer, puis le fer nuit à l’absorption du manganèse. Si le problème ne se résout pas en une semaine, vous pouvez utiliser du chélate de manganèse. Malheureusement, si la peste se déclare en cours de floraison, vous devrez procéder à la taille drastique des parties affectées. Rappelez-vous de ne pas tout enlever en même temps, une taille trop importante des feuilles pouvant causer un stress inutile aux plantes.

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.

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.

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.
