It was a surprise to grow this seed. It is a cross of Wedding Cake (female) and Amnesia Haze (male). The seeds fell off the plant I grew last year. I have enough seeds now for the rest of my life. 😄

The height and week are correct. I haven't taken the time to correct the Temperature and humidity level on the weekly charts. Possibly next week I will fix it.

There's been some curling on the leaves. Maybe it was the 83 Fahrenheit degree temperature at the beginning of the week.

Been good. Added some fish fertilizer and big bloom. She's still responding. Added it towards the end of the week. She's is approximately 5' tall. Looks very indica dominant. It is a Wedding Cake x Haze mix I accidentally created several years ago. Saved the seeds and have been growing at least 1for the past 4 years. Removed the yellow poppies that were growing in the same pot.

Fertilized again this past Sunday. 2 tbsp Big Bloom, 1 tbsp Alaska Fish Fertilizer 5-1-1 per gallon of water. Only added a gallon worth of nutrients and 2 gallons of water afterwards. She's in a big 30 gallon container. She looks healthy at about 5' tall and 4' wide. No topping. She's a wedding cake mix that keeps adapting to the local weather year after year. Looks very indica dominant in my opinion. Thanks for the support everyone. Getting some curling on the leaves since like 2 months ago. The plant is healthy so I am not sure what it could be.

Did not add nutrients this week. She took the 38 mph winds well this past weekend. Really thirsty girl in the 30 gallon pot. She's taking around a gallon or two a day of water due to the heat. Typically growers space out the waterings , but all goes out the window in 90 degree Fahrenheit weather. The biggest issue right now for me is keeping the insect population under control. That's about it for this week. Although I am not actively defoliating or topping, I do remove any yellow or dying leaves. Later in the flowering season I keep the yellow leaves a bit longer since the plants reaches the end of its life cycle, but this early I remove them to prevent attracting pests and to allow the plant to focus on forming the bud/cola structure.

I added 1 tbsp Big Bloom and 1 tbsp Alaska Fish Fertilizer diluted in 1 gallon of water. Gave the girl about a half gallon worth. This is the only thing I've added since they are both Organic juices, I stay away from hard synthetics because the plants don't respond well when grown in soil. I usually just top dress the plants with compost and mulch throughout the year and add fish fert and molasses. This is the first year I use big bloom although I usually start off with FFOF in the soil mix at some percentage. The weather peaked at 96 and is now back to the mid-70s. Less watering for now. I pulled the branches by hand to spread out the foliage, but I don't tie them down or break the branch so I wouldn't quite call it LST or HST. More like NST...no stress training.

Grow Questions

RADE245started grow question 5 years ago
When should I add molasses or sugar to the grow to affect flower growth and/or aroma? I usually harvest October 10th to the 20th to get that half amber half milky thrichrome build. I average 1-2 lbs in 30 gallon pots.

the plant doesn't use carbs like that, if i recall. it won't chang the test of th ebud if it's not part of those catabolic processses (anabolic? whichever.. both.. lol) but, molasses has K and minerals and all sorts of goodies the plant can use. it's an excellent thing to use, imo. grandma's blacstrap organic i think. maybe a tbsp/gallon? i gave milk and molases alternating with my fertilizer when i used soil (may use soil again soon). my ferts at that time had crap for Ca.
