Hey buddies! Welcome to my second Diary here in Grow Diaries. I decided to separate the plant diaries as they'll get into flower in different stages, and will have different heights and feeds, so makes more sense to have a diary for each plant. Also, I'm not a big grower at all, don't plan to go over 3 plants inside the tent for now, so it'll be easy to keep up updating both pages. With this said, let's move on to the grow diary itself. The setup is the same as my Diary#1, but this lady here is 10 day younger. Day 1 - 16/5 Dropped seed #3 in the water Day 2 - 17/5 Seed #3 is out of water, straight in a 18l pot with biobizz light mix soil. Let's hope for the best. Day 3 - 18/5 #3 not out of the soil yet. been misting the tent every other hour to keep better RH levels Day 4 - 19/5 #3 still not out of soil Day 5 - 20/5 Plant #3 is still under the soil, should be out before the weekend hopefully, let's see how it goes. Day 6 - 21/5 Plant #3 is finally out of the soil. I'm so happy to have a 100% germination rate in this batch. Great job Barney's Farm!😎 Day 7 - 22/5 Plant #3 is surprising me. It germinated very fast compared to #1 and #2 and is taller than #1 already. Looks healthy this first couple days, keeping my hopes high for this small little grow.

Day 8 - 23/5 Plant #3 continues to grow, looks like it will be taller than the older brother #1. Maybe the fact of seeding it straight in the 18l pot made a difference. We'll wait and see further on the results. I noticed I was keeping my lights too far, so went down to 45cm (ish). RH is finally going up inside the grow to more acceptable levels. 40% with light on and up to 70% with light off. I also made a little change in my passive intake, to create more negative pressure, and the result is immediately visible when closing the tent. Day 9 - 24/5 Plant #3 keeps growing well and upwards. started giving the same nuts as the other plant to make it easy on the watering. As both plants reacted well and showed no signs of heat stress, lights went a little more down, closer to the plants. The closer the better, so let's see tomorrow the result. Keep feeding with the nuts mix I made earlier this week,switching to water when it's finished and then a new week should begin. RH looks stable 40% day 70% night. Night temp oscillates between 17 and 19, nice and cool for the ladies. Nice numbers, makes me happy. Day 10 - 25/5 Plant #3 this one really like to stretch. Almost reached the size of the oldest brother which is great news. Little leaves start to appear, so let's hope for the best and see the outcome. Temperatures today got a little higher in the grow, touching the 30's during day time, and consequently de RH went to 32%. Also got a few of this bug stickers to help prevent with possible intruders Day 11 - 26/5 #3 - Looks a little more yellow-ish / faded on the color, so I just fed her PH'ed water. Tomorrow we see the results. The temps were at 19.5 and RH was 62% - off time Day 12 - 27/5 #3 it's getting there... Need to remember that is only her 7th day out of the soil. With that said, I believe is looking great for the first week. Inside the tent things are looking nice, even though the RH is still low in the peak of the day. 30% only today. In the night can get it up to 70% if wanted but day time is getting a little hard. Temperatures are nice, 27 on, 18 off Day 13 - 28/5 #3 was nice to see the evolution in the last 24h. soon will be fighting to reach the older sisters height. Today I got a little distracted with time and the humidifier went empty, throwing my RH to a very dry 19%. Immediately fixed, got it back to the 40% (ish) It's amazing to observe how much water it goes in the humidifier. 6 liter every 24h. Impressive uh?! Temps are under control, think I got a good hold on this lately. Getting a steady 27 on / 18 off. Feeding today again with the same nut-mix, so far they're loving it! Day 14 - 29/5 #3 today was a nice pushing day. the second set of leaves is out and the progress is fantastic, way to go #3! Reacting well to the same mix of nuts, just feed her less amount of water. RH and temps are around the same. 32% on, 60% off. 28 on and 18 off.

Day 15 - 30/5 #3 Keeps going up very well. Biggest difference I find is that by this time, her older sister was shorter. The first set of leaves almost touches the soil (which does now after LST) and this one is significantly far from the ground. The difference is direct seeding here vs transplanting on #1. I decided to make a new batch of water (4 liters), enough until the end of this week. Now added also Root Juice by half to make sure the roots are getting what they need. This warm days here where I'm living also brought me a new problem: Humidity here is down to 20's%, so the air going inside the grow is warmer and drier. Even with the humidifier on, full power 24/7 and won't get it over 34% with lights on. Lights off can keep up under 60% Day 16 - 31/5 #3 - Another day, another little stretch. Reacting well to feeding, loves the environment and the light. Nothing new to add. The grow keeps the same, dry during the day time, nice in the off time. RH is 35% on, 55% off. Temps from 28 on to 18 off. Time for light period is now changed. 23h to 18h. Let's see what this brings, but I'm hoping to find a nice balance here inside the grow, even though they look super healthy and nothing wrong is going on. Day 17 - 31/5 #3 - Keeps growing up. At this rhythm she'll be topped in 4/5 days. Today after feeding her with nuts, watered with plain water - PH'ed off course - as I'm not so happy with her color and believe it can be a little too much of nuts for her in such an early stage - Remember, I'm using the same mix to both plant #3 and her older plant #1 that you can see below the link. For now. It got hot in the grow today, can't really get distracted with the temps, or having enough water in the humidifier. As I'm still home, could spot that at early stage, otherwise could have been a bigger problem. Fans were adjusted, to circulate better the air around the plants and lower in the bottom of the grow. With this said, temps were today: 32 on and 22 off. RH was 28% on and 50% off. Remember, this are peak temps, not the constant, that is around the 28.8c same with RH that stands usually over 35%. Day 18 - 2/6 #3 - Not sure what's happening here, but It seems like something's about to happen. She grows nice on a daily basis, but the leaves are starting to curl up. That indicates only 3 things - Heat/light stress, over/under watering and humidity. So, I'll move the lights slightly up, maybe 5cm just to see what happens. Plant wasn't fed for 24h+ now, even though it's been misted almost in a hourly period. Soil looks dry so I believe it's mostly related with the heat stress, bearing in mind that for an hour or two the grow exceeded the 30 degrees. Humidity is ok, a bit on the dry side with a 34% on and 50% off. Temps oscillated between 32 on and 20 off. Day 19 - 3/6 #3 -Today was topping day. As the plant looked recovered from the heat stress, I decided to go forward in this early stage, so there's time to develop for a good LST. Tomorrow I'll see how it reacted but fed her now before lights goes on with the nut mix. Almost a liter this time, together with a generous mist of the plants and also, after moving up the lights last night, just did it again. The temps, the RH and the plants seems to be closer to the optimal levels and that makes me very happy after struggling a couple days with high temps and low RH in the grow. Temps between 28c and 20.4c and RH from 34% to 54%. Day 20 - 4/6 #3 - To my surprise, the plant reacted well to the topping, even though recovering from a little heat stress the 48h before cutting her. Soon I'll be training this plant, just need to figure out how she's going to develop. As I'm using different techniques of the same strain in the same grow, will be fun to watch the differences between this one and the one I have on my other diary. Tried to make a clone out of the topping cut. Put that cut in water and will see what happens. The heavy watering last night and a heavy misting before turning the lights on, together with moving them even upper, brought me lower temps and higher RH. The temps were between 24c and 20c, and RH from 40% to 50% So, apparently my struggle was because I was just getting the light way too close to the plants, especially in a very early stage. Day 21 - 5/6 #3 - It's the end of week 3 for this little one. She's grown a lot during this week, got a little heat stress and was topped. Let's try and make week 4 a better one for this little one, and get her started with some LST, just waiting for new new tops to form to get her going. Today, no feeding nor misting. She looks fine so she'll fast for at least 36h In the tent, today was the best 'weather' ever, I'm super happy with that 😅 Temps were between 18 off and 25 on, RH between 73% off and 40% on. 😀 So, that's it for the week, thank you all for coming by, and see you all tomorrow, beginning week #4! Have a great evening everyone👊

Hey my fellow growers! The grow reached 32Celsius the last 2 days in the last hour before going into night time. On that time RH goes down to 32% and this seems like it's stressing this lady a bit. Yesterday fed her nuts - maybe a bit too much? Thank you for stopping by!

To me it looks like you got it.. a Heat issue.. to help combat this go out early in the morning before the temps reach 80F. Mist them all down with some water. It will help them combat that day heat.. Hope this helps.. Other than that they look healthy no signs of nute burn that i can see.. Happy growing!

Was the cut done properly? Fed her with nuts right after cutting To me looks ok, just a little worried if I didn't damage the possible new tops. Opinions? Thank you so much!

Good evening buddies! Welcome to a new week in this grow! It's her 3rd week now, she's been topped last week, after being through some heat stress for a couple days. This week I'm looking to start training her, I'd say in a couple days, paired with topping, should bring some better results if all goes fine. You can see the grow room, looks nice, neat. On the left is her older sister LSD #1 from the diary you can also follow here. On The right, the newly defoliated, topped LSD #3. On the other pic you can also see the grow conditions right after light goes off. Good numbers right? Day 22 6/6 - #3 - Today I cut off her 2 biggest fan leaves, basically the ones from the top - See the difference in the pics above? Same angle. They were covering all the under branches, and I believe this way I'll get better results from light exposure. A lot of new foliage is growing under and it looks like it'll be a beautiful plant. Trying to figure her out to see how I'm gonna train her, but she needs a couple more days in my opinion, to start bending her properly. Had a big time watering (with nutrients), a little under a liter and was also mist in all foliage before lights going on. Temps were very good again! Rh with 79% max and 52% min and temps from 25 to 17. Nice uh? 😎 Day 23 7/6 - #3 So, she's fine after the defoliation and ready to start training tomorrow. Today just got water, 6.4 ph Temps are stable inside with 16 min and 26 max. RH from 52% to 76% Day 24 8/6 - #3 today was training day, and removed the bottom 2 fan leaves. This were the ones that suffered the most with heat stress, so I decided to remove them. The plant looks now very clean and nice for the last 2 weeks of veg. It's a lot of training on the way of this little one, comparing her with her older sister in the grow, she's doing fine, even though very different as the first one isn't topped, changing completely the shape of it. Funny thing: Even though she's 9 days behind #1, she has a very strong smell, much more intense, not so green and more weed-like. Awesome!👽 Today I'll give her a light feed again, to get this lady back on track and will wait for another day to come. Temps today were 29 max, 21 min and RH from 71% to 39% (values are higher today as I let the humidifier empty for a couple hours) Day 25 9/6 - #3 during the night she kinda grew back to her original shape, so today I had to tight it a bit better to avoid the same issue. It's a learning process, and for sure I'm learning a lot with this two ladies in the grow. Back to topic - she developed some weird leaves in the bottom, which I removed immediately. When it comes to smell, she's getting really powerful, it's a pleasure to take her out the tent and while training her, inhale that amazing perfume in the air. No watering today, going to save that for the morning. I'll just give her a light mist to keep things fresh and humid in the grow. Temps and RH recorded today: 26c - 18c 76% - 41% Day 26 10/6 - General: #3 is slowly showing herself, and I'll need a couple more days to have a proper opinion about her and her development. Don't really want to precipitate myself and say something too early. Training: Today was twist and pull day. Decided to stretch her again to maximise exposure. All light is needed right now and at this pace, might get another defoliation before the weekend comes. As I write, lights are on for a few hours and looks like she reacted well to the training earlier today. Feeding: Good watering, 0.75l with balanced ph water, and went up 0.5ml on the grow/veg nutrients. Let's see what happens, they look great now, showing no signs of any problems. Smell: If things goes right, she's gonna be a stinky one. She's getting more and more weed smell in this very early stage. Can't help myself smelling her all the time while training her. It's really pleasant. Temps and RH recorded today: 28c - 18c 60% - 37% Pests and plagues: Nothing to record. Day 27 11/6 - General: She keeps growing, lots of leaves, getting ready to start stretching and flowering. Looks very nice and healthy Training: Day of small adjustments and a bit of a defoliation. I want more light in all the spots, and so, some leaves had to go. Feeding: Good watering, 0.70l with balanced ph water, and went up 0.5ml more on the nutes. Let's see what happens, they look great now, showing no signs of any problems from increase of dosage the last couple days. Smell: Much stronger and weed like smell when compared to #1. Really strong for the early stage Temps and RH recorded today: 29c - 20c 88% - 41% Pests and plagues: Nothing to record, just took all out of the grow and cleaned the floor with a proper disinfectant I have home, and washed all plates from the pots, as I do every week. Day 28 12/6 - General: Keeps growing steady, reacting well to the training and defoliation. My suspicions start to be more and more realistic when it comes to her development. She'll be bigger than the older sister. She'll outgrow her and I can't wait to see that happening. Training: Time to bend her a little more, make sure she'll be growing straight and flat. Feeding: Small feed, around a cup with the nutes mentioned above. Soon will increase the amount to see how far can be pushed. Smell: Much stronger and weed like smell when compared to #1. Really strong for the early stage Temps and RH recorded today: 30c - 28c 69% - 30% Pests and plagues: Nothing to record. That's the end of week 4, she's getting soon 1 month old, meaning she'll start to flower soon. If you like this post and grow, follow it. Leave your comment or opinion, and your like. Have a great week!

Day 29 - 13/6 13/6 - General: Another week starts for #3. She looks strong and vigorous, produces a different kind of foliage when compared to #1. Regarding the heating and RH problems, after a full morning and afternoon working inside the grow and outside, they're finally solved now. I didn't have the thermo-hygrometer in the right place, and made some adjustments in the setup that brought me back to desired values. Having the fans in the right place and speed and the same with extractor made all difference. Techniques: Just got everything tighten up, tomorrow will have a big training day. Feeding: Gave her the week 6 biobizz schedule. Tomorrow will do the same and maybe from monday will start going over, depending on her response. Smell: She rocks! when it comes to this subject, she's really different from #1. Funny how different they can be coming in the same package. I wonder if topping the plant had any influence... Temps and RH recorded today: 30c - 18c 63% - 28% Pests and plagues: Nothing to record. Day 30 - 14/6 General: Another day goes by, and she keeps growing. Starts to pre-flower. Today during some training, accidentally broke a little one, which is always sad. Anyways, start to think I have a nice couple plants to make a SCRoG, and will eventually consider it during the week, while the plant grows. May be a nice way to support the weight if needed. Techniques: Today i start bending everything around, to make a spiral. Let's see tomorrow how it responds to it. Took some extra foliage that was on the way, covering other budsites. She really grows leaves fast! Feeding: Nothing today. The pot looked heavy enough to skip a day. There'll be more coming tomorrow. Smell: Bam! Opening the tent equals to getting a weed breeze straight in the face. It's really the smell you wanna feel coming from a cannabis plant. Great smell. I'm in love with it. Temps and RH recorded today: 30c - 18c 87% - 30% Pests and plagues: Nothing to record. Day 31 - 15/6 General: The pre flowering stage is more evident, and one of the bigger signs is the way she's starting to grow foliage and size. Definitely different phenotypes this 2 ladies. Today didn't touch the plant at all, been just around the tent trying still to get the perfect environment, which is not being that easy task to accomplish. Got it going very well, steady temp and RH (25 celsius, 45%) until the afternoon when the high temperatures outside thrown the temperature values to the 30c for some minutes. Techniques: Just checked everything out. Nothing done in this area. Feeding: The medium looks good enough to skip a day on the feeding. The pot feels heavy enough to wait at least 12+ hours. Smell: With the increase of the heat and RH going down, the smell got a bit more intense, bringing all the good stuff from this fine plant. What a weed puch you get in your nose when you approach. Smelling her makes me smile and wonder how it'll be if we make it until the end. Temps and RH recorded today: 30c - 19c 71% - 36% Pests and plagues: Nothing to record. Day 32- 16/6 General: Enormous growth of new foliage. It's everywhere! If it keeps going like this, some of that extra foliage will go down over the weekend. After 48h without watering, today was time to feed her again. Was expecting her to drink more than it did. It's the second day I don't touch the plants, and will keep this way until tomorrow, when I'll just rearrange her a bit. Techniques: Just checked everything out. Nothing done in this area. Feeding: Same feeding you can see above. Going heavier in the next days. Smell: I have the impression some days and sometimes it has much more smell than other times. Weird. Today was a low smell day, which is always disappointing to me as I love to feel that unique smell they have. Temps and RH recorded today: 29c - 21c 60% - 38% Pests and plagues: Nothing to record. Day 33- 17/6 General: She keeps growing foliage at a very high rhythm. In the weekend she'll be defoliated and re-adjust a little the stems. She looks much more Indica compared to her Sativa looking sister. I'm still amazed with the different phenotypes. Finally get a hold on temps and RH, which makes me super happy. Today I'll delay the feeding for 12h, fastening her for 36h. Techniques: Just checked everything out. Nothing done in this area. Feeding: No feeding today. Smell: Quite powerful for her age, really strong smell coming from this little one. Temps and RH recorded today: 28c - 21c 64% - 36% Pests and plagues: Nothing to record. Day 34- 18/6 General: Another day has passed, not much to tell about this one. She stinks, she got big fat leaves, massive amount compared to her older #1 sister. Starts to drink more water than #1 soon, the foliage color isn't as green as #1, which makes me wonder if I'm giving her too many nutes for the time being. Besides that, she really needs training and a nice defoliation to get her going. Techniques: Just checked everything out. Nothing done in this area. Feeding: She's a drinker. Same strains, soil and everything and how can they be so different? Anyways, she had the nutes mentioned on the chart. Smell: Quite powerful for her age, really strong smell coming from this little one. The whole tent smell to it, and it's quite pleasant on the nose. Get a lot of tropical aromas, almost like a pineapple/mango/passion fruit mix. It's the exact opposite of #1 that has this earthy/woody smell, like when it starts raining. Temps and RH recorded today: 28c - 21c 50% - 40% Pests and plagues: Nothing to record. Day 35- 19/6 General: Accentuated growth this last few days. She's very bushy and growing upward very vigourously. Leaves are looking great, she's drinking good amounts of water, and looks like it'll take her longer to flower than her older sister. We'll wait and see. Techniques: Just checked everything out. Nothing done in this area. Feeding: Normal feed, nothing new here. Smell: She's still the queen of the tent when it comes to this topic. Temps and RH recorded today: 28c - 22c 50% - 34% Pests and plagues: Nothing to record.

Day 36- 20/6 General: She keeps growing at a very nice pace, flowering stage just started. Today I cut a good amount of foliage, and accidentally broken a nice branch while training her. It broke in a place I couldn't really 'cast it' so I had to let it go. I'm so sad, it was the first time ever. After some very hot days, now came rain, and an exponential increase of RH. Turned off the humidifier for now and still have peaks of 60% with light off and ventilation full on. But RH outside is 95%, so it's hard to do much better for now. Techniques: Training day, moved a little the stems and broke one in the very bottom, so had to discard it. Took some foliage away to get more light in it. Feeding: Fastening day Smell: She's still the queen of the tent when it comes to this topic, no doubts about it. Temps and RH recorded today: 26c - 20c 60% - 39% Pests and plagues: Nothing to record. Day 37- 21/6 General: She's gettin really taller this last days. Up is the way! Need to do a little more training tomorrow or the day after to make sure all the plant gets the same amount of light. Today I didn't touched her, just took some pictures and let her do her thing. The heavy rain brough 96% RH outside, so I had a little peak oh 70% inside the tent for an hour, but it kinda locked on the 62% with the lights off and extractor full on. Techniques: Nothing to record. Feeding: Later today, before lights on, she'll have her first feed with flowering nutes. 1250ml Smell: She's still the queen of the tent when it comes to this topic, no doubts about it. When you trim some foliage, it comes a nice passionfruit punch. So good I can't believe in it. For those who know Rubicon or Brisa passion fruit sodas, it's just like that. 😍 Now my biggest stress is keeping my girlfriend away from the grow and keep it closed, because she loves that smell and is constantly nosing around. Love it. Temps and RH recorded today: 27c - 21c 70% - 42% Pests and plagues: Nothing to record. Day 38 - 22/6 General: It's stretching season for #3. She really needs a bit of training before it starts full on, and some defoliation. After breaking a stem, I'm a bit traumatised and avoiding touching them for some days. I'm giving her water now for a couple days to see if it gets a bit better, looks like I was giving her a bit too many nutes for this stage. So, first let her dry a bit, then start with PH'ed water. Techniques: Nothing to record. Feeding: I'm giving her water now for a couple days to see if it gets abit better, looks like I was giving her a bit too many nutes for this stage. So, first let her dry a bit, then start with PH'ed water. Smell: Same same, nothing new to record. Temps and RH recorded today: 26c - 22c 62% - 41% Pests and plagues: Nothing to record. Day 39 - 23/6 General: This days I really haven't done much. I wanted to give them a week to be themselves, and see after what can I do to improve them, so this weekend I'll use some time to eventually start a Scrog training, If I'm still on time. She's looking good, but I'm afraid the time between them and the advance stage of #1 might not be the perfect condition to do this. Techniques: Nothing to record. Feeding: Only h2o, ph 6.5 Smell: Same same, nothing new to record. Temps and RH recorded today: 27c - 21c 60% - 37% Pests and plagues: Nothing to record.

I'm not sure what can this be. Any ideas? It's just this one that got like that. Should I be worried if it propagates to more foliage?

This looks alot like over watering but could possibly be lack of humidity or the light is too much for her. You're also feeding quite heavily for this stage of the grow. Do you feed every water? They need a break sometimes and helps wash the salts around.! 👍🌱

Day 43-49 27/6 - 03/7 General: Huge stretch! She tripled her size, from 18 to 52cm in a matter of 10 or less days! Flowering mode is on and as you can see in the pictures, they look healthy and fine. Today did a big defo, to make sure all light goes through all that height. I actually bent a couple of the taller arms to get a better exposure. Techniques: Defoliation, cut quite a lot, maybe 35 to 40% of total foliage. It seemed to dense to me, so I decided it would be the best option right now. Feeding: Water the whole week, except for a day where got the mentioned above. Smell: Active, but not much. Very strong passion fruit hints Temps and RH: 30c - 17c (26 average) 62% - 24% (43% average) Pests and plagues: Nothing to record.

Day 50 to 57 - 04/7 - 10/7 General: No more stretching, I'd say we're done with that for now. It's time to get her fat and sticky. This week, besides watering and monitoring her, didn't really do much more. At this stage I just let them do their magic, no need for intervention. Techniques: Nada. Feeding: Starting to increase the nutes intake daily. Let's make her heavy and tasty Smell: Quite low still. Very earthy. Temps and RH: 26c - 17c (26 average) 62% - 27% (43% average) Pests and plagues: Nothing to record.

Day 50 to 57 - 11/7 - 17/7 General: She's got quite big compared to #1.. I've bent some of the branches in arch shape for a few days, to they can grow now horizontally. The buds look really nice, start to get some trichomes, and I have a feeling this one will produce a little more than #1 Techniques: LST and defoliation. Some branches got so tall that I bent them to even out the canopy. Cirurgical removal of foliage to maximize light exposure. Feeding: Giving her now full dosage every second day, intercalated with water. Smell: Getting better, but doesn't really excites my nose. Apart from when I remove some foliage, then it stinks a bit. Temps and RH: 26c - 17c (24 average) 78% - 23% (40% average) Pests and plagues: Nothing to record.

Day 57 to 63 - 18/7 - 24/7 General: She's really fine and healthy. Some leaves started fading already, and the buds really got bigger from last week. It's a pleasure to watch her fattening like this given the time behind the older one in the tent. If I'm luck, might crop them together, that'll be amazing. But overall I'm really happy with her size and bud and trichome production Techniques: LST, reorganizing the plant to cover more area on the grow. Removal of fading yellow leaves. Feeding: Giving her now full dosage every second day a liter per plant, intercalated with half liter water the other day. Smell: Now we're talking! She suddenly started to stink. Really nice tropical smell, like before, but much more intense. I must say that the carbon filter and extractor are working perfectly. Living in an apartment, it doesn't smell anywhere, not even in the room I have them. Temps and RH: 28c - 17c (24 average) 99% - 23% (40% average) Pests and plagues: Nothing to record.

Day 64 to 70 - 25/7 - 24/7 General: Another week starts and we are getting closer to the end. Leaves still fading to a nice autumn yellow, showing that the end is near. In about a week I'll start flushing her if she keeps going this fast. The buds are nice and hard, just need to see the pistils curling in and darkening more to finish her up. Smells amazing, like passion fruit and mandarines, really interesting and fragrant combo Techniques: Removal of fading yellow leaves.

Day 71 to 77 - 1/8 - 7/8 General: She didn't got as fat as expected. Looks good, but should have cut more of the secondary arms to get better buds. Have the impression I stunned her a bit after the last big defoliation. Besides that, started the flush on thursday and will do it for a week, at least. Leaves started to fade in a faster rhythm than plant 1, making it possible to crop them the same day. Techniques: Removal of fading yellow leaves. Feeding: Water to the end Smell: Great, strong pungent citrus Temps and RH: 28c - 17c (24 average) 68% - 28% (40% average) Pests and plagues: Nothing to record.

Week 12. Harvest

Happy Harvest Day!

Ok, now that I've tested some of it for a couple days in a row - after drying for 5 days and starting the cure right after. Been burping the jars for a couple hours daily, added humidipack/boveda 62% and now it's time to enjoy this beautiful flowers. Was really nice to grow this plant, she's super strong and resistant, perfect for a first grow indoors. Smoking this weed gives you a nice effect, right after smoking I feel quite good, calm but very thoughtful, creative. It's a nice one to space out in a brainstorming. It's very pleasant to smoke, gives a nice stone and the flavour is very herbal but clean, no coughing at all. Needs more time to cure as it still has a little more aromas to develop.

In general I'm very happy growing this strain. The germination rate was 100%, all 3 sprouted, even though one ended up dying after some weeks. My fault here, she grew upside down and when I moved her she didn't reacted well. The growing conditions were initially a little unstable as I couldn't find the right balance between temperature and RH, having the latter one constantly too low, making me buy an humidifier to keep the level higher. Well, too high in the lights off period, and when distracted could reach up to 99% RH, which isn't good. Again, lesson learned for the next grow. Maybe I've defoliated the plant a little too much and that might have also affected the crop a little. When it comes to feeding, didn't use so much plain water, the feeding were nutrient based all the time. Not sure if this had any negative effects in the plant. Was fun to train the plant and I learnt a lot about topping. To be fair, I don't know if this was what affected her final crop or if I stunned her in the last defoliation. Quite inclined for that option.. After all this, finish with this amount of bud is ok and positive lessons were taken for the coming grows. Overall I think I made a few beginner mistakes that affected the plant growth and flower, but again, having no pests, plagues, or any diseases was already a very good accomplishment and I'm really looking forward to start the next grow, and enjoy the smoke from this little one after drying and curing. As it was the first diary ever, was very fun to do it, and helped a lot controlling crucial parts of the growth. Definitely will keep posting here my future grows. Thank you all for following this diary, for the likes, all comments and answers to my questions. Without your feedback wouldn't have got this far. Smoke report will follow when the bud is ready, now is hanging and drying. Thank you all
