It was my first organic amendment grow. I love how simple the process was. I know there are other comparable dry nutes, but I wanted Gaia Green...it was worth the wait to me. Had to order from Canada, and shipping cost more than product, but again...totally worth it. Next time I’ll get a bigger supply
Typically I look at an assortment of trichs across the canopy of a plant as part of my harvest check. The trichs were only partially cloudy with a few still clear in week 9. Bear in mind that this is a super fast auto at 8-8 1/2 weeks from seed! I finally looked at trichs in lower buds and there was a fare amount of ambers so down the girls came. There was a pretty strong smell of coffee when wet trimming these girls, it was pretty wild, and I really dig that about this strain. It have off so many different smells from coffee to chocolate to even hints of fuel. Really cool. It was a super fun strain to grow, and I can only imagine how awesome it could have been had I not run into some development issues surrounding N content. Lessons learned to be applied in next round. In short, absolutely gorgeous plant...crazy dar colors, pitch black stems and leaves. this one is going on my personal top 3 favorites.
Will the trichs change to amber on this strain? I am a few days past the breeder harvest date, but there are no ambers and more clear ones than I’d expect at this point. I certainly have had plants go for longer or shorter than recommended, but based on trichs I am getting mixed messages. These girls are looking like they are on their last leg and borrowed time. Any advice or pointers for this strain? Thanks!!
It is always great to see an organic grow. The will to do one is more than enough reason. Regarding the small buds issue, happened to me aswell in my first endevours and it turned out to be excess nitrogen during flowering stage. The source most probably the compost tea. And/Or not enough pottasium. So yeah it´s a lot of tweeking required, but the journey should be nothing else than amaizing. The dance of elements, microbes, paramecium, enzymes, mycorize (by the way consider them next time, they´re great) is something to be a part of. Thumbs up and play!
That’s an interesting point you bring up about N. I have been adding worm castings to every tea...plus the little bit from other elements added (kelp, alfalfa, non meal, etc.). That could be it. I also have not added any myco. I have some RAW in my arsenel(N, P, K, and Ca/Mg) and even though it’s not organic it is each element in its pure and soluble form. I plan on using micro amounts so I can selectively add individual elements as needed.
All good points, appreciate the feedback. Best of luck with your ladies...looking good in flower!
