Ok from day 1 , I notice a few of you have problems with germination - 100% get one of the root it cubes , drop seed in hole , rip off corner of cube and put in hole ( this is important make sure seed is in dark) return daily to put 15 ml water on top , make sure it doesn't dry out , you can still plant in soil and just leave it , 1-4 days later up pops leaf .... this is going to be a complete start to finish - this is 1week from day I put seed in cube .
So I cut the bottom 2 stems off this week - she is growing nicely - I'll start flowering nutes very soon probably Saturday , and I'll do 1 with advanced nutrients and one with canna 😊
( I have two blackberry s growing , other one is one day younger )
Ok things happened, girls grown a lot this week , I'm running canna in one and advanced in the other until last week I thought they were identical, but now I'm not so sure ??? Let's see what happens , A is 10 inches smaller than B , I will also check for bud quality , they both look beautifully dark , I can see purple - happy growers new year to you all ). If you want to ask a hydro question feel free , I personally feel hydro is the only way to truly flush all the shit out !!!! And it's stronger 😏
Ps the edit week thing is driving me nuts and won't change for me on iPad
Burnt the tops on blackberry B -grew ridiculous amount in one day and is now 1m50 +
Anyway it's looking good apart from that smaller blackberry A showing more colour
We are at Day45 I think - 😏 Lost a bit of time over xmas as you do ...
Day52 I believe - girls growing nicely the advanced nutrients one has had some sort of issue , but it's just down one side - weird ,see pics
The smell is dark and musky resin, colours are showing nicely
Omg I didn't need to turn a pic round 270 degrees - woohoo
Day 59 I believe - I know you like your photos so here are a few more , they are both looking delicious , and the aroma is dirty , real oily dark smell , don't get me wrong it's pleasant but I feel there will be a knockout on the way - I've lowered the ppm , I will drop it to 800 Tomorrow, then first flush Saturday , leave for a few days to soak out , then flush again Tuesday and repeat until drip off is same or lower than normal plain water
Ps if you post or 'borrow' my pictures , just be honest about where they came from and we are all cool! 😏
Ok this will be the last entry before I harvest , today is day 66 .
The buds look beautiful, so much colour and crystal I can only anticipate the wonderful flavours - from the smell I think it will be a heavy stone but the taste might be fruity . The two plants are slightly different , blackberry b grew a lot taller , so much so I had to put the other one on two breeze blocks and it still didn't come close. Enjoy the pictures and as I said before if you ' borrow ' say where they came from .
They have probably been one of the easiest strains to grow and for something a little different , it's worth a go.
I will update with yields in 10 days or so and I'll give you a smoke report , I'd like to have 10 ounces from the 2 but blackberry a probably has about 3 .
Happy growing all all
Ok so she been chopped and is now drying - she will have a week at 24c and 45-48% humidity in a temperature/humidity controlled environment . Ideally I would dry a little lower but it's very warm around at the moment ,my first guess is about 3 ounces from A and 5-6 from B , I'd have liked 10 but hey it's looks like it's going to be a lovely smoke - 👍
Just wow this taste is so funky - I was going to give this 9 but in all honesty this has to be the sweetest , fruitiest best tasting weed I have ever smoked - the hit is smooth ,aftertaste of blackberry last s ages , the buds are quite thin but still potent - it's a very calm ,stone , just peaceful and warm , it starts with a bit of energy and the effect is definitely a creeper - I would say this probably one for the medical s its lovely and peaceful , but I have a bit of a dry mouth
Blackberry A was a little small but still nearly 3 ounces - I think I might have upset it by breaking a few roots in the first flower stage but the smoke is delicious , so sticky - the other plant has approximately double this , I'm going to see if tastes as good 😊
I had a little bong of the A today - it was quite dry and omg the taste of berries - mega smooth mega if it s like this now in a few weeks curing in will be amazing - it's a very up hit and I'm very surprised 😳 I sat and played 30 mins on my keyboard 🎹 so if you like your music this is perfect , I'm also feeling a warm sensation , hard to explain just happy I suppose but more warmth 👌🏽
This is a much more manageable high , slightly dry mouth 👄 I'm chewing gum so if anyone has a dispensary might be an idea to get some amazing flavor gum ,just a thought 💭 imagine the Ben and jerrys of gum - I still can't believe the taste of berries , and it's definitely a creeper as I write this update I'm realising how stoned I am but so warm and nice . Total grow time was approx 67 days for Blackberry A 71 Days for Blackberry B
@BigDaddyK, it will be a pleasure to see you growing them, bro. We hope you get the flavours you're looking for on them :)
Keep on your awesome work, thanks much!
Going with adv nutes this grow coming up similar to tangz latest ones he uses and I have terpinator, would you still use carbo load and overdrive as normal, is there a preferred week to start using terpinator do you know. PS really digging your diaries man, quality and quantity in abundance 🙂glgl
@autopassion,thanks bro , I probably wouldn't use carboload as well as terpinator , you can add terpinator all the way through the grow but it's needed most in the first few flowering weeks ,as for overdrive I would use this as well 👍
Very interesting. I don't once see a picture of the buds on the scale nor all of the harvested bud together dry. The buds you do have shown are very clearly poorly trimmed and still wet. I'm willing to wager that the harvest weight you have listed here is either complete nonsense as that plant didn't have the size to yield the weight you are claiming or they are still wet when you threw them on the scale. I'm also noticing a bit of mold in some of the pictures. Theres no possible way for you to validate any of the harvest claims you are making here and you intentionally didn't post any of the proof.. I call nonsense on this diary.
@BigDaddyK, Looks pretty rotten to me. Why didn't you take a picture of all the bud on the scales. Why isn't all the bud pictured together in a large pile? Why does it still look wet in those pictures of the buds? Those sugar leaves still have their moisture in them meaning that all the pictures of the buds were wet.
@BigDaddyK, Still not addressing the mold and the wet harvest weight. Why didn't you take a pic of it on the scales? Why is there mold? Why isn't all the bud pictured together?
@Herne, ph swings are so hard to avoid in soil , it's partly the reason I go hydro - and no matter what they say about flushing , it can never be the same as a bucket of pure water . My friend David flushed for three weeks in soil as an experiment, it still didn't taste as clean as a one week hydro flush and definitely wasn't as strong - this is my opinion based on the last 20 years of growing , I had a friend who had cancer , sadly no longer with us who said it was definitely the smoothest - so I've stuck with it , tried ebb and flow , Wilma s , eft , and at one stage coconut , all to bring to the buckets which are in my opinion the easiest and largest yielding .
@Herne, colour has come out steadily over the last three weeks , the smell is so dark,the gorilla glue I grew was a fresher smell but this just has an edge to it , I suppose you could say the glue was white wine and this is port 😊 Happy growing dude I'm going to keep an eye on your glueberry , I think I see a little cal def , but I wouldn't worry it's too far gone to matter 👍🏻
Looking @ pic 3 and i'm no expert i'm just throwing out ideas, maybe start looking at a Mag (Mg) or Potassium (K) deficiency but since you are giving it bloom nutes i'd start with Mg. i agree it's weird it's only on one side could it be a sign of nute-lock creeping in? still it's looking tasty... so much white
and about how you can't put more than one GD entry per week now... i think (now i'm only guessing here) because of the changes coming you can only have one diary entry per week. this would make the conditions data to be logged and compared more accurately. but you can edit each week so you might have to go back and update info on each day (or whatever) of that week.
@flecko, on my iPad every entry is a new week, I can't edit it down anymore , so if I did another today it would say week 10 - it wouldn't even let me edit this week 👺
@flecko, no worries , you don't have to explain , I work 7am-8pm 4 days on 3 days off in healthcare it's hard to know exactly what people are saying on the internet but this is a friendly place , part of the reason I like it here so much , so we all cool bro 👍👍👍👍
@BigDaddyK, Ok cool dude and i'm so sorry for being uppity. I grow for anxiety and depression and bipolar so i get good days and bad days and the past 2 weeks have been a bad day. anyway i can't wait to see the results from this grow. i'm a bit jealous it looks so tasty
@flecko, bro I was just trying to be helpful - amount of nodes would of given you idea of whether it was worth changing light - if the stretch was not giving me more actual flowers I would of given if a go - I'll post a picture of the root ball at the end , I don't think this is possible in any other medium 😏
Lovely looking plant and great diary brother , definitely putting putting this in my garden next , heard some good reviews on it .
I'll hit you up when I do for any pointers :)
Pretty interesting ho you 81 gram plant and your 150 gram plant look exactly like the plants in other diaries where you've claimed 200+ grams harvest. Absolutely lying horse shit in all your diaries. You don't even show all the harvested bud together in one picture which means you clearly just made up your harvest weight.
@BigDaddyK, ironically fastbuds blackberry and gorilla glue birthed me into this growing world. They were my first two strains ever. I agree the gorilla glue is lovely. Her buds were like rocks reeking of adhesive tape 🙌
@Leeyum, that is a good question , it does feel a little light and the flavour ,I'll let you know as soon as I have dried some , but the smell is fantastic- if you want something really special grow the Fast buds gorilla glue it's just awesomeness 😊👍🏻😎
