The plants have been growing fine for the past few weeks, and bulked up nicely. There has been some minor Cal mag lightening as I pushed more of the EC of the nutrient solution towards bloom boosters. I need a larger tent as the two plants squeezed every square inch and created a very dense canopy with too much lower fluff. A little bit of amber (less than 10 percent) has become visible on the buds, so as of day 73, both the Blackberries are being harvested. The buds are huge and very frosty. Unfortunately the photos this week are very poor quality, as both the plants came apart when I started removing my plant supports. Buds were hanging everywhere! I was hoping to get some nice, natural light photos but that will not happen this run. But I will have some harvest photos up soon, which will hopefully show the full glory of the end result!

Grow Questions

The Blackberry Kush has been experiencing some twisted, deformed growth since it first germinated, while my Fastbuds Blackberry has been growing strong under the same conditions. Autofertigated buffered coco, 15-20% perlite mix. Runoff also 1.1ec. Just an issue of genetics?

ok, in this case i agree that it shouldn't be an EC issue, so then i'd go with genetics.. Only if you see the same behavior with more grows in the same environment, i'd start looking into a possible root cause, but sometimes those one-offs just happen. happy growing!

I did experience something similar on my outdoor grow and it turned out to be wind burned. After looking through I did see that you sprayed your plants when lights are on and the water droplet may off rolled off the leaf and the streaks causing by the light itself, another could possibly be a PH as you did state it drifts from 5.8/6.2 which may off locked out a specific nutrient to causing the roots to lock or bound. And if your leafs are twisted and forming around a 90 degree angle then you're looking at broad mites, it doesn't seem like a calmag problem as calcium effects lower leafs to twisted whilst forming rust spots and magnesium causes the center leaves to yellow. One other I can think off may be a boron deficiency

@@@@Ajwardy18, thanks for sharing your experiences, I really appreciate it! I ruled out a lot of these issues such as wind burn, but I am now narrowing in on upward PH drift causing boron lockout. I think the symptomatic plant might be more genetically predisposed to the issue, and I had been using GH pH drops for a lot of my testing and I am honestly not that good at reading subtle color differences. I recalibrated my PH pen last night and found the reservoir had drifted up to a 6.6 over 3 days, probably from a 6.3 when the nutrients were mixed. I was misinterpreting the drops as being a 5.9-6.2 range. That would be enough to cause boron lockout if it has been happening throughout the grow! I definitely should have known better, but at least I am aware of it now and have corrected it! I am going to double check the pH a few times a day over the next week and see if I can begin to correct the issue and get healthier growth back. Happy growing! 👍🌱 Edit note: after 4 days of definitely spot on PH and EC, inflow and runoff, there really hasn't been a change in new growth. So I am reverting back to genetics or a mystery condition only affecting this one plant 🤷‍♀️🏻

Looks awesome my friend. I'm still about a week behind you but my plants are not looking quite as luscious yet ;) Great job on this grow. Looking forward to next week. 👍

@Treighfunky, thanks! They have really grown like crazy, and now I feel like I have to get a bigger tent if I ever grow more than a single plant at a time! Your plants look nice and healthy, and are coming along well! 🌱👍

Looks fantastic so far. I'm growing the same strain and about 2-3 week behind you. I'll be checking in on this grow to see how things progress for you. Best of luck 👍

Hey bro i did have had the same problem with my DP blackberry kush, Strange twisted growth. My other plants did fine so i think genetics. i did get rid of her. Hope this helps

@StoneyMelony, thanks for the heads up! It helps me not feel crazy, like I am missing something for the poor plant. I feel like this happens more when breeders breed for consistency in the unusual/recessive bud colors, but screwy traits and mutations become more common in the strain. At least the Blackberry by Fastbuds will fill in all the space this one struggles to take up!
