Decided I’m going to let my original grow (bagseed) grow out and maybe put her outside in June and really let her grow As for these 2. I planted today 4/6 right into their FFoF/ compost mixture. I figured I would keep it simple with germination method. Happy growing : ) 4 days later the KVS made it above soil April 12, 2018- a day that will forever live in infamy. My Asian dream seed sprouted and never looked right and died! It never made it above soil. Really a shame because I’ve seen no full grows online of that strain and was rather excited. Oh well. I decided to germinate another KVS using the paper towel method just to see how it is and also I wanted more control. So here we go lol the grow was tweaked a bit. KVS #2 ~ Stay tuned

My autos are growing really well. I can’t believe how much faster they get going then photos. Trying to decide if I should top or just let it go. I only have about 3 feet of grow room. 4/28 KVS# 1 showed sex today at day 18. I guess that’s right about on time I was hoping she would hold off a little to grow bigger. She has grown about 7 inches this week and looks twice as big. Not much else to report on.

It’s really up to you. I’ve topped my autos with good results. But more recently I’ve been giving them a FIM pinch at the new growth tip - just a firm pinch on the tip. This causes less stress and still helps to produce more bud sites. Also, don’t take the 65 day timeline provided by the breeder as absolute, my autos always go at least a couple of weeks longer than advertised. Good luck! 👍

Weeks 3-4 for my autos. I’m letting the first grow naturally and the second I just fimmed and may start some LST. KVS 1 started showing preflowers a few days ago. Nothing much else to report on. I can’t wait till I start to see some buds forming in a few weeks! The stretch is on, so much in fact I had to perform some LST to try to keep her down a bit. It seems like it grew another inch today. I’ve been getting both of them some sunlight the past few days they are loving it. I topped KVS #2 last night she is recovering now.

Hi, Yes you can, just don't go crazy defoliating.. Just the fan leaves blocking the bud sites is fine. You can do this at the beginning of flower and up until the third week of flower, I wouldn't advise doing it after that point. Also if you're going to LST, now would be a good time. Any questions, just ask.. happy to help. Goodluck!

Hey friends! Day 1 of flowering at the start of week 4. Still stretching but it seems it slowed down. Sister is right behind her at 20 days. Doing well I will post pics later. When should I switch over to flowering nutes? I feel like I should keep going with vegging nutes for another 2 weeks? I’ve been letting them outside during sunny hours and checking like crazy for bugs- so far so good. Do I neee to worry about over exposure to the sun? Just posted KVS#2 she’s at day 20. I supercropped the main stem after I fim’d it last week to let other growth catch up, also wanted to see a knuckle form. I squeezed it between my fingers and rolled till I felt it break down a bit and then bent it around in a circle. It’s still standing on its own but definitely weak at the moment. How long to heal?

These plants are amazing to grow. No problems thus far. Getting some sun along with my lights everyday 6 hour sun and 12 LED. KVS 1 starting to really concentrate on flowering now. I see more hairs everyday. KVS 2 is not far behind at 27 days. Her canopy is so even. Its so pretty to look at. I feel like she is going to produce realllly well for me. Should I lollipop at all? They are pretty bushy if so, I’m literally removing every leaf under the canopy?? Thanks! Happy Grows 🤘🏼⚡💥

Both girls are doing great and are both in flowering now. I’m removing leaves as they yellow and letting them be otherwise. I just started tiger bloom and will be introducing beastie blooms in a week. Nothing to report on besides parts of the stem being purple? It’s kind of spotted throughout so I’m gonna chalk it up to genetics or phosphorus deficiency in which the tiger bloom should clear it up... all good! Hope everyone is doing well and good luck with all your grows!💥🍀🌱⚡

White hairs are everywhere and she’s starting to smell a little bit. Introducing beastie bloom this week for KVS#1. Seems to be moving right on pace I believe she will be done early July and her sister right behind.

Start of week 9. Both starting to smell good almost like a lemon smell, I can’t describe pine sol maybe. Finally getting some sunny days again after all that rain. KVS#1 has slight nute burn so I’ll slow down the feeding. All else seems good; they seem to be taking their time really budding.

Both are about a month into flowering and look like they have awhile yet to go. Oh well no rush. Both are very healthy and leaves are “praying” each day. Not much else to report on... anyone know how to speed up flowering??????

Do these buds seem less mature then they should be? Most others who grew this were done by weeks 9-12, I’m at week 10 and still looking like 4 or so weeks left. Any insight?

Really taking her sweet time to develop these buds, hopefully making more potent 👍maybe. Both healthy.. gonna defoliate later today. Not sure if there’s anything I can do to speed up the process.

Week 12! Starting to see the finish line 🏁 KVS 1- really starting to smell like lemon pine sol. Nice terpene profiles. KVS 2- nice structure/ a little bit lankier and taking longer to develop/ maybe higher sativa. I learned a lot from each plant and have new ideas for LST that will help perfect my grow set up!! 🔥

Almost done with KVS #1 ~ about 3 weeks left I would say. Thinking about taking some leaves off for more air force flow. KVS #2 is still trucking along, starting to get its swell on now.

I would not defoliate at this point, it does not looks like it needs to. Unless you are seeing damp leaves? Those leaves are powering the fattening of the buds
