All good at the end of week 2 😁 Nodes are forming now and she's all healthy. Can't say if the katana roots is doing a lot but I'm sure all the good stuff in it is working it's magic 👊🏻 Will be upping nutrients this week and introducing some calmag and silicon.

Great week this week she's flying 👌🏻 Had one feed and a bit of defoliation and topping. Cut the katana roots down and introduced some silicon. Day 21 I snipped the 1st set of branches and topped the second set of nodes. Made some space and took 2 fan leaves from the top. Some pistils developing now too. All good here 😁

The fun begins. Started on the terra bloom now. Got some sumo boost aswell, root fed and as a foliar spray. Just put 1ml to a litre of water in a spray bottle. She's doing well. The topped nodes haven't really done much but its all good. Took the bottom fan leaves off, just tucking the rest now not stripping anymore. Stretching a little now should see a lot more from her these next couple weeks 😁 All looking nice and healthy and no issues

Real good progress this week. Shes looking lovely 👌🏻 Apologies for the lack of pictures through the week (and quality of what I did manage to get) it's been a mad one for me and I haven't had the time I needed to give full attention to the garden and someone's been tending to it while ive not been able to. She's absolutely loving the shogun range and doing real good on it 👌🏻 Really nice structure and seeing her get her stretch on now

Not doing too bad. Seems to have settled now and stopped stretching, Smells pretty peppery, like a tangy pepper haha Start her on PK warrior next week see how she does. She's got the sumo booost foliar as well as root feed this week. All healthy though she's loving the shogun stuff 👌🏻

Doing gooood. She's small but looks great so far 👌🏻 Smells peppery and sour. Not really frosty but might start knocking some trichomes out these next few weeks. Really happy with all the shogun stuff so far. Noticed a big difference from my previous grows I couldn't be happier 😁 Started on the pk boost this week, Stopped the katana roots and dropped the samurai bloom down. go time for these buds now 👊🏻

Not long left for her now I don't think. Buds are fattening up nicely the main cola is rock hard almost. Ridiculously strong pepper smell to her haha if you give a bud a rub a lovely fruity smell comes through though. Gonna do a week of dragon force next week then possibly start flush depending on trichomes. I have even checked them at all yet but will get it done over the weekend.

Flushed her with 30ltr and put her on dragon force and sumo boost. Going to give her one more feed then start a long as possible flush. Trichomes are just becoming Amber so I reckon by next week it'll be time for flush, if not I'll just give her another feed with the dragon force&sumoboost She's already fattened up a bit this week and the main cola is rock solid now. Lower branches are catching up on density too.

That's it now she's ready for flushing 💦 She's fattened up lovely on the dragon force and sumo boost this last week 👊🏻 See what this flush can get out of here 🤔 Still kicking out a major pepper smell with a fuityness to it. Final week lets go!

Week 10. Harvest

Happy Harvest Day!
Rated
10/10

Aside from the LSD-25 it's probably my favourite FB strain I've grown. Great structure and the buds are dense! So dense that I actually got a tiny bit of mold at week 10, luckily I caught it and managed to salvage the crop, the area wasn't really small and hasn't impacted the harvest other than it chopped her when I seen it. Would have liked to flush for a bit longer. Other than that I had no issues at all. She had a real strong smell of pepper all throughout flowering, started frosting up nicely in the last few weeks and fattened up great too. When trimming my fingers were caked and smelled just like a strong cheese 🤔 So glad I've got another on the go and a seed left still. I didn't train her really and think I could have got a lot more out of her if I did.

@shogun, @ukauto, those of us on the other side of the pond are jealous. These nutes are killing it. I see 3 week old soil-grown plants that are bigger than my hydro plants!!!!

@UKauto, looking vicious my friend. Looks like she is lovin life.
TeflonDonFarms
TeflonDonFarmscommented7 years ago
@UKauto,I’m on the same page as you. Except it took me using to much nutrients to figure that out. Like you said when I know exactly when to use them I will but for now I dialed it way down as well! I usually defoliate way to much so I tried tucking with my lady. It’s taking all of me not to cut some lower fan leafs off. No worries about the essay it’s nice to talk to someone about Growing cannabis. Everyone I try to talk to outside this site is like wtf are you talking about get away from me.

UKautocommented7 years ago
@TeflonDonFarms, Off to check her out now and follow along. Yeah mate really good structure on these, nice big fan leaves too. Lush colour in them. I've removed bottom set of leaves and nodes and topped the next set up and pinned them horizontal, there's a fair few pistils forming now so expecting her to shoot up soon. Bit disappointed if she's kicked into flower already wanted to see a bit more development in veg. I always say stuff like this though 😂😂 This is probably the first ever time I've run a full on nutrient range. Normally just stick with the basics I'm not properly clued up on them so less is more for me haha. But, I'm researching so the more I learn about what exactly does what it helps with seeing any comparison whilst using them. Definitely all good so far she's doing great and looks in top health. I'm sure as the weeks go by I'll acknowledge the benefits haha Apologies for the essay 😂✌️🏻

Looking forward to seeing this the Shogun range is excellent bro u won't be disappointed
UKauto
UKautocommented7 years ago
@biggreens420, I use very little in comparison to some like. Only been growing a few years and that's on and off over a long time, not massively clued up on them so I think less is more when you have my knowledge haha not as straightforward as some people think. Gonna do the sumo boost as a spray as well as root feed to see if that has much difference.

biggreens420commented7 years ago
@UKauto,that's all I use there stuff is awesome never tried geisha yet though I don't like foliar feeds and I'm trying to use less nutes in my grows see what the difference is
UKauto
UKautocommented7 years ago
@biggreens420, I ordered some of the terragrow earlier in the week and got sent the hydrogrow by mistake, asked the guys at shogun If I could use it with soil and they ended up sending me these the next day to review 👌🏻. Ordered some of the geisha (think that's how to spell it haha) foliar spray too, heard nothing but good thinks about shogun so far so looking forward to it

There looking fine bro 😉. I'm also using Shogun full range and WOW, this stuff is awesome !!👌 Mine have just entered week 4 of flowering and can't wait to see what happens !! You've got a very nice plant bro, good look with the rest of the grow 😉

UKautocommented7 years ago
@Chameleon, my thoughts too man. Always just used odd bits of advanced nutrients stuff. Tryhard put me onto shogun and after running the complete range I've seen a massive difference in my grows. Still looking into what each product does precisely but the more I learn the more I realise how well running the whole range does. Thanks man she's small but I'm really happy with her no doubt
