Week 8 - she is properly trained to the edges of the pot and "normally" I could/should send her to flower, BUT my two little Autoflowers still need 2 weeks to be in Flower. So the next exciting experiment will start with them, how will they react to changing the lights to 12:12? Yeay
Besides that, not a lot happened this week, more training and defoliation, she is doing great. Some roots grew out of the fabric pot, that's good. I'm starting to be happy about her having only three arms ๐Intuitively she seemed to know of her place in the tent and chose to become a beautiful triangle. Haha
Day 51 watered 2 l (no run off) found roots grow out the side. nice ๐ mixed in 2l 2ml each fish, activera, algamic, heaven. looking good. lot defoliation plus under arm bud removal. even canopy.
Looks beautiful! Well done๐. I've left plants in the dark for 3 days before the chop with no problems. Now onto other critical steps...the dry and the cure. โ๏ธ๐ป๐๐๐ฅ.
Thanks @DeaneR and you say it, still trying to optimize the drying game. One part of the plant I already processed into a fresh cut oil. The rest is drying in the tent and fridge. Canโt wait ๐
@starke, wow, the coloration of the leaves is astounding, I LOVE THIS COLOR! ๐ You did a great diary with AMAZING pics here! GREAT job, keep up the good work! ๐๐
Thank you @stonedjeasus, indeed with lots of love ๐The strain is 10% CBD and 10% THC, I don't want to harvest too late to get all the good things out of her. I hope she will have some more time. Have a good day โ๏ธ
Thanks @Cr8grow โ๏ธ I'm happy too and the baby box is amazing, I just got a better light and the box is now ready to home 4 Autoflowers up to harvest, yeay. Go build one too, it's fun. Happy weekend โ๏ธ
Hitting mid bloom with our Blue Dream CBD and looking in great shape ๐ค
Good luck with the rest of the flower show my friend ๐
We will keep dropping in as you update your diary ๐
Watching with interest from Humboldt County โ๏ธ

@Humboldt_Seed_Organisation, Nice, that's good to know, thanks. She's nearing some more cloudy than clear. Should be in a good time frame then. Have a good day โ๏ธ
@starke, With high CBD strains we have found through lab testing that the CBD % starts to degrade and turns into other cannabinoids such as THC, CBG and CBN when the glandular trichome heads start to turn Amber ๐
I like to harvest with only 2-5% Amber 85-95% still cloudy with 2-5% still clear ๐ค
That should work out perfect mate ๐
Stay safe out there ๐
Kind regards โ๏ธ

@Humboldt_Seed_Organisation, Thanks guys, very excited for this grow. Lot's of good things to come from this great strain. How is your experience growing it, do you harvest earlier due to the CBD content? Have a good Sunday โ๏ธ
@starke, as this is just my second grow, I never used anything else than BioBizz. And it seems to work fine for me. Honestly I think that "every nutrient line is the best one"; if you find something that works for you, I see not need to change. I think there is a lot of voodoo and superstition involved also. Reminds me of people who can hear the difference of a 1.000$ cable in their stereo set ๐
@Buddha2, you're welcome, try a small bottle, you won't need much. This is my 6th plant in total using this and 1/3 is left. I use at 1/3 to 1/2 of the recommended dose. In another forum, everyone is raving about Megacrop by Greenleaf Nutrients (https://greenleafnutrients.com/product/mega-crop/), have you heard of it? I've ordered a free trial package and will try with one of my next grows. It's a one-stop-solution with a little calmag added, I like the idea of that. Have a good day and thank you to you too, you're very kind, it's a joy meeting people like you online, incredible value added โ๏ธ
@starke How did the harvest go mate?
We hope you are enjoying this CBD enhanced creation ๐
Beautiful work and a well deserved harvest ๐ค
Kind regards โ๏ธ
Team-HSO..
Absolutely phenomenal work with our Blue Dream CBD ๐ค
Check out the size of those CBD rich flowers and those colours popping through are simply, gorgeous ๐
Not to much longer and you'll be well rewarded ๐
Please stay safe and don't forget that pre harvest update ๐
Kind regards โ๏ธ

@Humboldt_Seed_Organisation, you say it ๐ This plant is such a beauty, not to forget her smell and hard buds, wow ๐ชYou have done an amazing job, thanks for following along, that's nice. Day 60 of Flower today, updating some photos later and can't wait to have another look at her trichs. Happy day โ๏ธ๐
Looking great! Nice buds forming ๐. The triangle shape is interesting ๐. I think I'll try the quad method in a future grow. Check out my White Sugar OG diary and my Mango Sapphire diary. I'm experimenting with a couple of training methods. Goodluck going forward, you're on your way to beautiful harvest.
@DeaneR, thanks, I'm very happy ๐ Definitely check out the Quadlining threads on 420 Mag, much better explanation then mine, I'll send you PM with the link. And also, don't do the same mistakes as I did. Happy growing ๐ will check your 2 Ladies. Have a good day โ๏ธ
@Psilocubensis, I like it. Was thinking about adding silica, heard it's good and helps with strong roots and other benefits. Heaven seems to have amino acid like silica and that's what I had at hand. Amino acids allow the plants roots to do 1000 x more chemical reactions than normal. Since using it, I had great root growth through my fabric pots, which is supposed to be a good sign.
