Dr_Boom Welcome back! Not a lot to report this week. Growth was steady and there were no problems. I just kept the soil moist, with very small waterings every day, along with misting a couple times daily. I continued to add Promix Connect to build the roots.

Dr_Boom Hi again. She is growing well and I don't see any problems. I had to put a space heater in the tent because the temperature outside is 20°f and this grow is in my basement. Brrrr. She takes about an 1/12 cup of water every day.

Dr_Boom Welcome back! She continues to show good growth. I noticed her leafs are getting a little puffy, so I cut back on water a bit. I think I overwatered her a little, but not bad. She'll be fine.

Dr_Boom Hello again! I repotted her into a 1 gal pot at the start of this week. Actually, it looks much smaller than a gal, but it will work! She took the transplant without a pause, and continues to display good growth.

Dr_Boom This was a fun week. She is growing strong, and being misted daily with dechlorinated water. I topped her at the 4th node and didn't notice any stress. She looks good, with no problems this week

Dr_Boom This was a fun, but uneventful week. I continued to mist her daily and haven't noticed any problems. She seems to be a thirsty girl, getting 8 oz of water daily. Topping didn't slow her down much, and I'm seeing good new growth. She's starting to get bushy, so I think I'll defoliate a bit next week.

Dr_Boom This week was an exciting one! I topped the top four branches to help even out the canopy. I don't think I'll top her anymore. She should be bushy enough. I waited a couple days and did some more LST and defoliation. She looks so good, I took a cut. Since this was the only seed that popped, I want to be able to run her again if I like her. Late in the week, I reoptted her into a 3 gal fabric pot. I'm not in a hurry to flip her, so I'll veg her a few more weeks. This was a fun week!

Dr_Boom I had some fun this week! I tried out some LST clips, and spread her out a bit. I will say the clips are a fast and easy way to LST a plant, plus they were fun to work with! Another fun week.

Dr_Boom Welcome back! O did a little LST early in the week, but I left her alone for the most part. I plan on flipping her to 12/12 next week and I wanted this week to be relatively stress free. She's looking good!

Dr_Boom I switched her to my flower tent, under a Sunraise qb2000. She continued to show good after the flip to 12/12. I added Dynagro's Bloom nutrients to her feed and see no adverse effects. Another fun week!

Dr_Boom I enjoyed this week a lot. This was the first week of true flower, and I watched her carefully for herms. Happily, none were seen and she's continuing to look good; displaying good growth. I'll continue to inspect her every day during this early flower stage..

Dr_Boom This week was more of the same for me. I checked her every day for herms and found no sign of pollen sacs. Yay! She's stretching well, and the bud sites are getting bigger. I love watching her grow.

Dr_Boom Hello! There is not a lot to report this week. She continues to develop well, and I can see these branches are going to need some support in the next week or two. I'm trying to avoid defoliation simply because u want to see how she performs. Let's see what happens!

Dr_Boom This was another uneventful week. She continues to show good bud development and growth. I'm starting to get a orange smell from her, which I like alot. I think I'll add some support for her branches soon, before she starts to bend over.

Dr_Boom Hi, again! I added a plastic trellis that I had laying around at the start of the week. This should keep her from falling over, because I can see the branches are going to be heavy. She has some nice buds, continues to be a fun, stress free grow.

Dr_Boom I had some medical problems this week, so I wasn't as attentive as I normally would be. I love the bud development on this girl, and the smell of funky oranges is noticeable. That's a good thing!

Dr_Boom I flushed her to start the week. I'm not going to take her too far amber, simply because I don't want her to have a strong narcotic effect. So far, she continues to be an uneventful grow. I can't wait to see how she turns out!

Happy Harvest Day!

Alien Aphrodisiac Future Genetix

9/10

Rated

I liked this cultivar quite a bit. Even though only one seed germinated, I consider this a successful grow. She was an easy, stress free grow and she didn't have any problems with mold, disease, or pests. She has a nice mimosa type if smell, with a little funk added in. Her taste is smooth, with just a hint of Citrus, but not much. That said, it's a very pleasant effect. Perhaps I could have taken her a few more days, but I'm happy with the results. Additionally, she yielded 80g of tight buds, which isn't bad. I'd grow this cultivar again.

Dr_Boom I put her in the dark for an additional 48 hours before Harvest. In hindsight, I think I should have taken her a few more days for a more balanced effect, but she is still a very good smoke. I cut her down and put the branches in my wedryer for 9 days. She yielded 80g dry of tight buds. I hand trimmed her and was able to get a good amount of shake for edibles along with the buds. This was a fun grow and reminded me of why I started growing in the first place!
