An Exciting New Collab from Katsu Bluebird !
Welcome back, & or Thanks for Joining me !
Week 15, & the End of 9 weeks of flowering (65 Days of 12/12)
Well Here we are, the last flower entry.. only one more entry the HARVEST of these Gorgeously Dank Flowers from Katsu.
We are Seven Days into the flush & thus far everyone is holding steady ! Only 3-7 more day's for the group ! As your can see plants One & Five are the quickest of the Pheno's, they received their last watering today & once they dry back 50% of todays water they'll be into 24-48 hours darkness before the chop.
As for Plants Two & Four are they Longest running of the Pheno's they will likely receive another watering, & run another 7 days.
Plant Three is the one i'm watching closest ! this plant is SHOWSTOPPING... Grape Candies Dipped in Gasoline floods the floor, the moment I open the tent.. This particular pheno may go 7 more days maybe not.. Its very close to the finish line either way... I'm Drooling.
The most exciting part about starting to pull plants is the ability for my to take some better isolated Bud Shot photo's ! :)I wish I had the funds to keep upgrading my photography gear but its an expensive hobby...maybe ONE DAY lol!💪
The Boys Club saw a little bit of action this week as well.. a long over due hand job for the jizz monster. I am very excited to cross this guy back with a cut of Pheno 3.. & maybe something else but I need to find it first.. any thoughts ? Grapes &...?
This process used to be SO damn time consuming.. until the Trim Bin..
The recommendation is to use 1/10 ratio of baking flower as a natural absorbent to keep the moisture away from your pollen.. as you can see I dumped a bunch out after the first photo lol
I cant wait to Share coming weeks as the Wonderful Harvest is almost here !
Thanks for Reading 🙌
If you have a question or a comment leave it down below otherwise,
I Hope You Check in Next Week,
Stay Safe out there & Happy Gardening

A couple of thoughts
My "default" flowering period is 70 days because more often than not this is what I've found to be the "sweet spot" of most of my favorite strains (and hence my seeds). Keep in mind that everyone that wants you to buy their gear will tell you it finishes in 7 weeks. Bubba looks done in 8 and probably has the amber trichs to back up the premise - the truth is that Bubba is just very good at 8 weeks and doesn't become special until 10 and I don't care what the scope says. I would take them at least 9 and test your keepers next run at 10, or harvest half at 9 and the other at 10.
The pics are awesome and plentiful - anyone who wants to get the gyst of the strain need go no further
That male is a beast - holy shit! What are your plans for that jizz monster?
Save me a bud - it's going to be fire!
@KatsuBluebird,
Very Interesting ! I'm Grateful for the knowledge bomb ! I really do want to give these girls every chance to be all they can be. 🙌
I will more than likely run the full 10 weeks now !
&
as far as the boy is concerned...I have no plan, I'm just winging it.. ill probably collect the pollen but I don't have anything right now worthy of crossing ! is there a shelve life for pollen ?
I basically kept it to take pictures lol
@Cariboo_OG, I got on GD! Looking fine and dandy man. I love the girls, you know that, but that boy's potential IS massive. Pollen for days and plenty to experiment with✊. And it's pretty interesting when sisters, side by side act so differently. Makes it a little more fun though! Never frigging know, hahaha
@northernMike,
Thanks Mike ! I appreciate you stopping in each week for real, so much appreciation for the interaction ! makes me feel like I'm not completely wasting my time lol
Hey, looks great👍
Wondering about your light, what kind is it? and do you like it(pros and cons)
Thinking about getting a new light for my 2x4 tent.
Later!!
@Cariboo_OG,Beautiful day here, -5c and snowing like crazy
Perfect Canadian winter weather👍.
Ordered a new light last night, Viparspectra xs 2000, pulls 240 watts from the wall.
It also has a dimmer,Can't wait😵
Perfect size for my 2x4 grow tent and to flower my white cookie from the C. king.
9:00pm puck drop GO JETS GO!!!!!!
Have a good one👊
@northernMike,
Thanks Growmie ! I appreciate you saying that.
The light is a SpiderFarmer SF-2000; 200watts with a dimmer.
I bought direct from SiperFarmer, not from the amazon resellers.
The spectrum on these fixtures is wonderful IMHO. they really do provide quality light for a decent price point.
(samsung leds & meanwell driver)
I live in canada like I know you do... so its worth noting it did take almost 4 months to get my fixtures. a small inconvenience that may have been resolved by now, but they were worth the wait.
@JinksyGrows
Unfortunately the "man cold" play apart in my bitchy entry lol I ALWAYS appreciate a good chat with you tho man !
