Hi week 17 and 7 in Flower βοΈ
The end of the last week I decided to do 2 mini flushes, I watered her with 3l of PHed water with some Flawless Finish and with 2l of just water after. After 3 days again. She shows signs of nitrogen toxicity in my opinion (leaves clawing down, slight yellow tips), which I can only explain by still having added Grow/Nitrogen in Flower phase. I assumed and still believe that you should not abruptly stop giving nitrogen but maybe it was still too much, or she stored it from her veg phase and still had enough. Anyway. After those two flushes I decided to give her no more extra nitrogen and only half rec. dose of food.
Besides all that she looks beautiful, out of the tent her sugar leaves are a dark purple and the bottom of the leaves have some pink hues and stems. Her buds feel dense and hard already, never had a bud that dense. Guess that's the difference with photoperiods... She's also sticky, when checking for airflow and inbetween canopy, my hands are well covered.
She's not a blue dream but a dark purple dream atm β€οΈ Her bottom leaves are fading beautifully through yellow pink and some light green. Hopefully she can deal or recover from whatever she's going through but there won't be that much time left. I had a quick look at her trichomes and she is getting to 50% milky 50% clear. Maybe 2-3 more weeks?
Happy day βοΈ
Looks beautiful! Well doneπ. 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. βοΈπ»πππ₯.
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. Canβt wait π
@starke, wow, the coloration of the leaves is astounding, I LOVE THIS COLOR! π You did a great diary with AMAZING pics here! GREAT job, keep up the good work! ππ
Thank you @stonedjeasus, indeed with lots of love πThe 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 βοΈ
Thanks @Cr8grow βοΈ 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 βοΈ
Hitting mid bloom with our Blue Dream CBD and looking in great shape π€
Good luck with the rest of the flower show my friend π
We will keep dropping in as you update your diary π
Watching with interest from Humboldt County βοΈ
Kind regards

@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 βοΈ
@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 π
I like to harvest with only 2-5% Amber 85-95% still cloudy with 2-5% still clear π€
That should work out perfect mate π
Stay safe out there π
Kind regards βοΈ

@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 βοΈ
@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 π
@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 βοΈ
@starke How did the harvest go mate?
We hope you are enjoying this CBD enhanced creation π
Beautiful work and a well deserved harvest π€
Kind regards βοΈ
Team-HSO..
Absolutely phenomenal work with our Blue Dream CBD π€
Check out the size of those CBD rich flowers and those colours popping through are simply, gorgeous π
Not to much longer and you'll be well rewarded π
Please stay safe and don't forget that pre harvest update π
Kind regards βοΈ

@Humboldt_Seed_Organisation, you say it π This plant is such a beauty, not to forget her smell and hard buds, wow πͺYou 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 βοΈπ
Looking great! Nice buds forming π. The triangle shape is interesting π. 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 π 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 π will check your 2 Ladies. Have a good day βοΈ
@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.
