So they are all looking much happier. Next last shot is of my whole tent. I'm starting to think I mixed a few tags up. I had 2 wedding cake and 4 glue gelato...woops lol. Anyway. Did a little lst on the 2 worthy of attempting it. Others are starting maybe a half inch or so a night stretch which I am 100% ok with as they are pretty pathetic as is. Also cranked the tsw up to 90% . . Measured out around 35k lux . Waterings PhD to 6.6

Another week gone bye. Rearrange the room so single pics are the original grow. Been chasing a deficiency till today when I relized all along its been a too much light issue. First run with this mhtsw2000 and clearly underestimated its power. Checked lux and was super high to taller plants . All good tho. Back on track soil runoff coming back 6.6 to 6.8ish so ill take that. Added a little calmag and some base nutrients to all of them. Gonna hit the 2 stubby plants with bloom soon I guess lol. Never had plants this small but here we are. Now that I think I fixed my issues we will see where next week takes us..if this doesn't make any sense then i blame this strawberry cough wax I picked up

And some wedding cake and unknown genetic ive grown quite a few times cuz its great stuff.

Much much better looking now that I've got them on the right track. 2 of them got super dense stinky nugs forming where other 1 seems to be lacking. Has potential for much more flower but only time will tell. Thanks for tuning in. And if anyone sees that burnt up one in back... well idk what its problem is but it went from no nug to pretty dense small nugs and looks like its dying so its pumping out nugs

Wow...these girls took off last week. I've never seen so much bud on 8 inches of stem ever. Super dense and they look beautiful. The odd pheno was late too the party but she is also looking great.did a little defol of dying and extra yellow leaves.lowerd room humidity to 55 till end of flower and added a little extra airflow while keeping temps around 80to85. Under my 60x trichs are all looking great for another 2 maybe 3 weeks I hope

Another week gone by. These girls are loving life. The little shortys are as dense as dense can be and sugar leaves are oozing with resin still mostly clear trichs. The more plant version is little behind but looking great just not as dense and trichy. Im thinking 2 more full strength waterings and I will begin flushing the short 2 . No end in sight for the 3rd yet. Thanks for tuning in stay tuned for weeks to come.

Fast week . Fast finish final days for these girls almost all done. 1 more flush and the 2 shorter girls are getting the chop. Still a week or 3 left in the largest of them all. All in all a good experience and would do it again . Will update with harvest and future weeks to come with final plant which I think will have biggest yeild but maybe a slightly lesser quality nug going by appearance of the 3.

Harvested 3 of them since last post. Down to 1 big girl. Tested out after 5 days hanging and wow.... 10/10 for flavor, smell,looks,high. Will 100% do this again on a much bigger scale. Some of the best bud I've ever smoked in my life. First 3 were the smaller of the batch. Guessing around 3oz dry for all 3. Not including the lone survivor. But let me tell you this strain is phenomenal fire bang bang. Hands down top 3 of my life.right up there with platinum kush. Grow this you will love it. 10weeks avg in my grow. Last one is beginning flush this week. Still lots of growth going on. And imo 3 gallon pot was overkill. Checked roots after harvest and a 2 gallon pot would have been plenty. Making it possible to fit 9 to 12 in my tent with minimal touching. Thats next. Thanks for tuning in this week.

Flushing has began. Shes the final girl from the grow. Posted a pic of suspected mixup with glue gelato and wedding cheesecake. All in all a beautiful plant just not as dense as id like . Tested out a little more of the jard up stuff and wow it's just getting better. So delicious a mild couch lock and munchies followed with passing out cold and waking up groggy but functional.

Was a bit weary at first but by end of grow I wish I had 12 of same strain all in 2 gal not 3 gal pots and I bet I'd pull off dam near a gram per watt with same setup. 3 gal pots was a bit excessive imo.
