I remember worrying about harvesting too early, possibly having some residual PM, not letting it dry enough, and even more right up until the point I exhaled my first bowl.. And then, none of it mattered. Especially as you breath out the smoke/vapor, the fresh pine tase leaves you with this great aftertaste, almost minty fresh. And the same can be said about the high! I’ve been smoking some really great strains recently, but for my first grow I wanted something that could be truly special, and I’d say Dinafem have delivered. The high really does feel fresh and almost euphoric (that might just be me :) but I’d say you’ll certainly be left uplifted. But strangely, at the same time, I was probably more stoned than I’ve been in quite a while! I’d compare it more to smoking oil in intensity, and also the way it builds up on you over the next few minutes. It’s a very strange feeling being that baked, but also feeling so clear headed and fresh, but I absolutely love it! As it wears off, you’re left with a deep sense of relaxation, it’s really been helping with some of my pain. Unfortunately I don’t think I’ve cured enough to really get the great lime and diesel smells, but you certainly get the taste of those! Overall very impressed with Dinafems OG Kush, it lived up to my expectations and more. Very glad I went with these seeds!

Reviews. Nutrient
Bio bizz nutes were just a breeze to use! Being a complete beginner, I’m more than sure I overfed my plants, and as far as I could see at least, the plants handled it just fine! I also didn’t pay any attention at all to ph and just let the organic materials and microbes do their thing, and despite all of that, these nutrients were very forgiving. Definitely recommend if you’re a beginner, and from what I see on other diaries, an experienced grower can get much more out of them.
Honestly not sure what difference this made really? I just used it as was recommended to me - I’ll probably have to do a grow without it before I can really comment. 4 stars since I can definitely say it caused no harm.

And so it ends! My first ever grow. What a ride this has been! Especially with medical issues I’ve had recently, it feels like I really have gone through a journey with these plants. And my harvest also just happened to coincide with me finally getting better and out of the woods! I really didn’t expect much when I started out here - I just happened to browse across a special online for a full grow tent kit, that was basically all I needed to start growing, and I decided to just jump in right there without knowing much else. I did eventually try and learn as much as I could before the seeds arrived, but it was still pretty nerve racking! I think I eventually got a lot more comfortable with my plant, and decided to experiment with pretty much everything I could. So a bit of LST, topping, a lot of defoliation, and my first DIY scrog net. It was also a very short grow, so I never really got to try enough of each method to truly get the benefits, but I definitely reached my main goal of learning as much as I could! I think I have a fairly good idea of how my next grow timeline will go, and just knowing that makes me excited! My light was also not the greatest, but I’m actually very impressed with what I ended up with from a free 300w dual spectrum CFL. The OG Kush especially demonstrated the lack of penetration from the CFL - I’m definitely going with either an LED or Cob next grow. In fact, I’m so hooked, I’ve decided to rip out the entire cupboard my grow tent is housed in, and rebuild a multi chamber veg/clone/flower hybrid lighting system, so I can constantly rotate plants and get a few clones going. And more importantly, sort out my ventilation and current cramped conditions of the equipment. In the end, after learning as much as I could (even how to make some honeycomb bho :), I was left with 3 goals to reach that I added along the way. 1. Successfully reach the end of my first harvest - definitely got there :) 2. Fill up 3 of the little glass jars you see in my pics - they usually hold about 10g, so I was hoping for 30g basically. Ended up with 20g of OG kush and 9g of GDP, and I was also very liberal with what I called popcorn buds, so enough trim to get me 2g of honeycomb extract. And by shear volume, I could have filled up 4 jars, so another goal reached :) 3. And as a last, final, completely out there goal - grow some of, if not the best weed I’ve ever smoked. I specifically got these seeds based on the strains reputation and specifically the reviews for the Dinafem strain, and I’ve never smoked OG Kush before, so I had hope.. It’s still too soon to call, I’d need to give it a much longer cure, but if you read my strain review above, I think this could just be the one! So that’s it for now, might be a while till my next diary because I’m going a bit mad scientist with my grow space first. But I’ll definitely be back. Thank you to everyone who helped me and just gave me such great encouragement and support! Happy growing!

Grow Questions

ScoobySnaxstarted grow question 6 years ago
I’m currently at week 7 flower, using biobizz nutes, and wondering when I should be flushing? People say a week? Problem is my GDP clone looks a little further along, and I’m struggling to see the trichomes with my cheap loupe. I’m worried I’m already in the harvest window :(

GDP is ready for flush , but by those green leaves full of N she might need 2 weeks to fade... Cut the nootz for OG , let it use the nootz in the soil for another week then give it a good flush before the final week . Do not harvest your plants green like that or it's gonna be harsh to smoke

@Rubob, definitely will! I actually wanted to try a clone or 2 off this plant, but I managed to start some blue dream bag seed. Hopefully it’s female and I’ll put it on here too!

First grow ? If you wanna a good tip, just take particular care by the end of flowering, when the buds swell, to humidity. 35% RH or even lower is highly recommended.

So after a bit of research, I'm wondering if my "nute burn" is actually PH fluctuations? The tips themselves are actually unaffected, and the pattern seems to match up more with the PH fluctuations. Just curious at this point - it would make sense, since I'm not actively managing PH this grow, I'm relying on a mix of microbes and organic nutes to maintain their ideal soil PH. Also only noticed this after the transplant, so I would guess the "fresh" soil in this case would definitely be causing fluctuations at the beginning of the transplant. Anyone?

@ScoobySnax, yeah, it's barely noticeable in the photos, it looks like leaf miners to me
ScoobySnax
ScoobySnaxcommented7 years ago
@bobo420, Heh, well I suppose it’s barely noticeable in the photos, but if you look at the last 3 or so, there’s a few, almost golden spots on some of the leaves on the left side. I’m not really concerned, but like I said, I’m just curious about every little change I see on my plant now :)

@Rubob, I know dude.. why are we stuck with these fools! I lost another 3 hours of light on Saturday again. I'd change my day/night schedule, but it looks like this time they're just making up the "loadshedding schedule" as they go. I really hope I make it to harvest :(
