Transferred to 14 L pots on day 11 New pots has 80 coco coir +10 perlite + 10 worm castings 1000 watt led light were 35 cm away, i made it 80 cm now thinking about yellow dry tips I had 20/20 of the seeds but lost one of the girls at her first week The rest is alive and some of them look really beautiful and healthy but some has yellow dry tips and smaller then the others. I am a bit nervous but I will give them some time and observe their reactions to the changes I started to feed them with Canna bottle nutritions in big pots, half scale not to shock and burn them Peace and Love!

After changing the distance, they became healthier and growing well I cut dry tips at one and when I see the progress I applied it all I lost probably one week during light burns and recovery but we are ok now Distance is still 80 cm and I water them everyday Increasing nutrition amount everyday very little till we get to the schedule ratio A week smell makes me exited There are differences at growth Probably coz of genetics for being applied same variables There are 3 suspicious girls who are probably different kind, we will see Peace and Love!

Photos from day 33 Growing is getting faster and faster In the beginning I was expecting around 15 plants out of 20 seeds but I have 19! So I will go experimental on techniques to see the different results but it will be a kind of sea of green I guess I dont apply topping technique but did fiming at one monster and pinching (took off all the small core) at one baby as HST Defoliation of fan leaves partially at all of them to focus the energy on other parts LST on most of them except for 3 monsters and 3 babies With this mixed experimental style I hope I will have good space use and a gradual harvest I will give them extra liquid kelp to give faster recovery against stress and a faster growth Smell is getting serious by the way =D I installed a huge carbon filter to the 1000/200 silent ventilator that I have had since the very beginning This much negative pressure is an unexpected issue for me The space is getting smaller and the my fan inside stops if I put it on the bars Probably I need an extra ventilator for the air intake to stop negative pressure and a fan in any case Peace!

Everything is fine but I think flowering will take more time than I thought, its 3rd week of flowering. Flowering is slow and growth is going on. I did serious defoliation, added some liquid kelp to fasten recovery and getting ready for a serious compost tea operation for the first day of the next week. Also observing results of different techniques which is quite enlightening. I must admit that negative pressure is an issue for area use coz I lose 10 cm from each side which affected my calculations. Each plant is supposed to have 40x40 cm but they have line 33x35.

day 63 - We have some problems. Bigfoot is turning yellow and drying. There are some others with similar slight signs but Bigfoot is the most critic one. Because she is tallest one and something similar happened at the very beginning. i will blame light distance at first place. We will see And why is flowering so slow? Today I gave them magic elixir of Mr. Canucks https://youtu.be/whE2F72P8Tg as I had great results at my last try with his recipe. Just used some pigeon manure instead of alfa thing. days 65 - weeks passed without flower progress and I started to think abut what could possibly be wrong and I found out that IT IS NOT OUTOFLOWERING WTF! All my fault, I realize that bought regular feminized, not auto! Fuck me!

I use a jewels scope to measure the trichomes. Ready to harvest when 75%+ are amber depending on what effect you’re going for. When most of the trichomes become cloudy, you’re about ready to harvest. At this stage, the buds are in their full maturity, with the classic ‘weed high’ effect that you’re looking for. The high will be both intense and euphoric, as well as having strong pain relieving, anti-nausea and anxiety-treating effects. If you’re looking for a more relaxing, ‘couch-lock’, sleep aid-type high you can leave your buds to mature to a level where the trichomes turn a darker amber from their previous cloudy look, with almost all of the white hairs on the bud having turned a dark orange or brown colour. At this stage, most of the THC has naturally converted to CBN, which has very relaxing properties and will produce far more of a body-high than a head-high. This can be ideal for growing for pain-management or insomnia treatment, as well as reducing some of the more powerful psychoactive effects that we all know cannabis to possess.

Day 115 - Getting close... Day 117 - It's really crowded. I will harvest gradually as I planned with applying different techniques. So I will do some early harvest to get more speedy high and give some space and time to the rest...

Beautiful friends! I am very exited to harvest! I tried some and it has a speedy and spiky high with fruit and lemon notes (really!:)) Thank you for suggestions about harvest, I appreciate all! As I like to experiment and wanna have different categories of high, I will harvest gradually in probably 4 different periods. The issue is that I read something about harvesting immediately (not to crap the flower) when sugar leaves start to turn yellow and I have some! On the other hand, I saw some trusted videos that has some yellow sugar leaves. I want to ask you if you have any experience with this issue. I can not take out of the tent to the darkness more than 4 at once and wanna hear your suggestions before I go with yellow sugar leaves or some amberish ones at first :D I started to flush around 3 weeks ago and the colors are unbelievable now! Purples, reds, oranges, yelows... LOVE

Day 133 - Hell yeah! This is so sweat! smells like tropical fruit! Had around 40-45 grams from the first one. I have not started to cure the other 2. The colors are incredible in the forest :D But still I dont see any amber and the plants are drying because of flush. I am not sure if I should go on harvesting gradually or chop all once. Day 139 - I got 3 dried, 3 drying and 13 flush at the moment. In a couple of days im gonna start the harvest process for all the team. I got aproximately 45 gr for each of the first 3 plants. LOVE YOU!
