Hi everyone hope all is well. This is the week 10 update and marks week 6 of flower. I stopped all Nutrients except Bud Candy. Will run the candy one more week. Also began using Overdrive which I really like.
Feeding only lightly @ 400 PPM as flush will be coming soon.
It's Day 70 for BK2 from Germination. She is very close to being ready but some of the mid to lower buds are not that dense. The tops and higher buds are quite dense and I really like how they are looking and feeling. For this reason I will wait another week and see what the ODrive can do.
BK1&3 are finally showing some noticeable bud swelling. Will need to keep that up for the next week or two if I am to get a nice yield. I'm only expecting 20-30grams from each of these girls. Although 30-40grams could happen with some good late swelling.
NL2 is rocking it at Day 70 aswell. She has responded well to ODrive and continues to fatten up buds all over her canopy. She looks like she could yield big. Maybe 2-3oz. Not bad at all considering I broke a whole branch off. Smell is also really pleasing. Buds are a bit dense. If they can get 50% denser that would be wicked.
NL3 is at Day 67. Going to run ODrive for 2 weeks on her. She's finally packing on some girth in her flowers. The least frosty girl but she may output a bunch in these last two weeks. She has around 18-20 nice bud sites. Hoping each will get to be around a ping pong ball size trimmed. Or bigger. Maybe 30-40grams.
I didn't get any trichome shots this week as my loupe is hard to use with my phone. Will have to get my other loupe that has a clip on piece so it's not so difficult.
Next week I will attempt to lower temps by 5 degrees and even drop humidity to 35%. I wanna see if any colours can come out and see how they respond to the temp and RH drop.
Have a nice Super Bowl Sunday GD Fam. Catch you next weekend! ๐๐ปโ๏ธ๐๐ป
Thanks for the support and following my first indoor grow guys. I had a blast raising these ladies.
Thanks CKS and HSO for the seeds they did not disappoint.
@biggreens420, thanks bro I will post pics in harvest with a large Bic lighter or something common so everyone can see the size of the colas. Plus try and capture everything else :)
@JusGrowIt88,wow man nice change in here since last time i looked buds are looking nice and chunky u put some nice work in here looking forward to seeing the harvest๐ช
@@frags lol I hear you bro. I almost picked off a few lower buds to quick dry and smoke when I was dry.
Luckily it's very easy for me to score some good smoke from friends so I just went that route. Although it's not cheap so I am hoping after this harvest I won't be buying ganja like that anymore. $80 for an 1/8th every week gets a bit crazy.
Good luck with the Fastbud seeds brotha. I'm sure they will turn out great. Your BDT was great and yeah would have gotten even more swollen. That main cola was beastly.
Keep it up I'll be on the lookout for your next diarie!
@JusGrowIt88, yeah here we cant really find original something, dealers are spraying chemicals and its really worst! my main purpose was also never buy weed from outside anymore. But unfortunatelly all is finished before second grow ๐ Yeah BDT was good. Kush genetics always my favorite, spicy tones on taste geting my mind! Thanks for you kind words and wishes bro.
Happy Grows
@@@frags Howdy and thank you for the support brother. I am sure there is many ways I can improve but that's part of the fun. And for my first indoor grow I can't be anything but grateful and proud.
BK2 is just a freak. It's like BK1 and 3 are the runts. All 3 were planted within 2-3 days of each other. Topping happened around the same aswell.
Must be the strong genes. These were started in Promix Nov 28-30. So it's right around Day 60 now. I agree they look very close to done but I'm debating letting them go longer.
I was planning on using Overdrive nutrient for 2 weeks and then Flawless Finish for 1 week. But that's 3 more weeks ๐. Not sure if that is a better move or to harvest earlier.
I don't want that many amber trichomes and so far there is very little. Maybe 1-5%.
Also the lower buds and some mid buds aren't nearly as dense as the top colas and second top buds. So was hoping the next 2-3 weeks would help.
Will have to decide this week and just hope it was the best move for her.
Thanks again either way it most definitely will be a happy harvest ๐
Peace Love and Good Vibes !!!
Thx SM, I think so too. NL2 is the tallest gal @ 38-40inches. NL3 is a little bush at around 23 inches.
Got two different phenotypes. NL3 has smaller colas but tighter internodal spacing. More indica characteristics. Very dense buds and not much leaf. NL2 has big light colas that are a bit squishy. Also has a fair bit of leaf in the top colas. I think due to the light intensity at only 16-18 inches from the LEDs.
I will most definitely post my thoughts about Bud Candy vs Terpinator. Also wish I could get my hands on some Mammoth P in Canada. Haven't seen any yet in local shops.
Thanks again for the kind words and Happy Growing!
Thanks, I decided to begin using Overdrive @ 1ml per L with straight RO @ 6.2PH. Promix is mostly peat moss so that should bring the PH to around 5.8-6 where I want it in the medium.
Plan is to run this for 2 full weeks. Then flush with Flawless Finish for a full week.
BK2 may only get 1 week of Overdrive and 1 week of FF.
The other 4 plants will likely get the full 3 week plan if not an extra week of flush then 2 days of darkness and dry pot time.
The NLs will need the time to fatten up and layer on the frost.
BK1&3 just need to swell and harden up the bud sites. They are so much smaller and less dense then BK2. But they have shitloads of resin and trichomes on what is there.
Wow bro and in 3l pots that is unreal man. I will definitely be following any future diaries and returning to see your final results. Very impressive ๐๐
@Perth, thanks brotha. At first I was thinking of going with 5/7 Gal pots that I have but now that the girls are almost done I am quite happy with the results I got with 3gals. Will run them again.
You doin great bro, ofc if you can wait few more weeks the results will be better. i were have no upcoming harvest and all my weed was finished. And i couldnt wait longer and decided to cut. if u ask am i do correct? Ofc not. My last diary BDT if u may check u will see fat buds but growth didnt stop. She were still need few more weeks. Anyway tomorrow i will have my package which includes many fastbuds seeds in it .) Happygrows
You definitely have some phenotype variance with the bubba kush auto :) 1and3 sound very similar. With more airy buds and a higher than average trichome production whereas #2 sounds more dense with slightly less trichome coverage.
This is natural when growing from seed you will get some phenotype differences :) and it is a good thing.
It will give you variety and will let you know what works best for you and your consumption style :)
Going of the pictures I would say they have roughly 3 more weeks to go but with the pheno variance you may find that some are done a little bit before others :)
Will check back in on the next update to see how the girls are finishing :)
Kind regards
Team-HSO..
