Starting a brand new diary with San Fernando Kush by @sweet_seeds.
Germination process was a breeze and took roughly 48 hours after dropping the seed directly into the RQS Easy start.
I made a little competition between @sweet_seeds , RQS and PEV Seeds. sweet_seeds seems in this round to be the fastest to germinate.
Week 1 for this plant
dates : 1/3 - 7/3
Welcome to the new week, and marking day 1 of this plant. She was transplanted into the 3L bucket and placed into the small box grow.
I have added a "humidity dome" to provide her the humidity she needs. Now, it's time to monitor, grow and keep her alive. these are the tricky days.
Hope she will make it and no issues will arise.
#STAYSAFE and keep growing
8/3 - 14/3
She started to show but of yellowing colors so I had to give her food. I don't get it, again this is nitrogen rich soil, I would have never expected to add food at this stage but I listen to the plant.
The nutrient burn had to be stoped and flushing bio food isn't a good idea. So onwards to the next idea. I have transferred her to 7L bucket and gave her only additives.
Success! She looks amazing 🙏🙏🙏.
PS I will be using plagron for all my plants as I got a starter pack. Hopefully one day they will sponsor me
I have started to shape the plant, she is taking it very good, taking food roughly every 3 to 4 days once the buckets are dry that is... This eliminated all the gnats...(so far)
Another week is in the books. I kept topping her and cleaning her up from large fan leafs.
She showed minor burns on some leafs which made me raise the lights using the carton box
Another uneventful week of vegetation has finished. Through the week I have shaped them a bit and added the extra 20 cm heights adjustment to the grow table.
This will make sure they won't burn
The plant is growing rapidly and the extra 20 cm weren't sufficient. I noticed leaf burn from the intensity of the lights.
I need to buy a small grow box. The main problem is that the light escapes..
Ladies and gentlemen the new tent is up! All three plants are in and the scrog net is up holding the plants down. At some point I will have to repot her
Last week of vegetation ended.
Moving forward to flowering stage with 7l pots I don't want to switch them and it's time for them to flower as they are quite old enough
1st week of flowering passed by quite fast and she grows up.
Next week she will be moved under bigger lights and higher tent. All n all happy days with the growth and no issues to report
She is filling up and I'm removing small bud sites and large fan leafs.
I can see minor bud sites on all the plants. It looks promising. She needs a diet switch to flowering food.
Flowers are developing in small shapes whilst I streach the plant so it won't get any taller.
I raised the lights and they are now 40cm from the canopy I had to make shift my own cables.
4th of July ends this week. The flowers are growing and they are small but sticky.
I'm going to sort some family affairs and my girlfriend will take care of the plants.
If all plans work well, I'll be back to harvest.
She will feed them every other day with 18ml of food and 20ml boost on 5l water.
Week 6 ended and my girlfriend is doing an amazing job with the plants. There was a bit of toxicity and she lowered the food quantity for one feed. Also some cleanup happened on the plants. The rest seems fine.
I asked her how is it to grow weed and her main complaint was the vigorous regiment of the feeding. Stay safe have a good week.
Week 7 ended and I'm also back at home after 3 weeks of travelling. From next week the plants will get lower amounts of food and slowly and surely move to a water only regiment.
One more week have passed and I cut down a plant so now she has only one friend with her. I also spread her wings hoping the light will run deeper.
Thanks for reading!
The week went on quite fast and the plant is fattening up. currently most of the trichomes are milky / transparent so I prefer to keep the plant one more week in flowering.
took some pictures just before the lights went on, hope you like them
This was a very short week. On Tuesday she got chopped off and hung up to dry.
I'm using the big tent as a dry space for her.
Enjoy the pictures.
Total flowering time was 68 days. Most tricomes are milky white. Plant seem ready and I also forgot to water her once 😂
Smokes report will come in 3 to 4 weeks.
Into: Whilst this grow is sponsored by @sweet_seeds the opinions are mine. I'm the sole consumer of this amazing flower 🌸 🌺 🌹 🌼
Growing it: 10/10 - Very easy to grow, training with LST, HST and mainlining. Had twice an infestation of leaf hoppers which were eradicated using an all natural bio pesticide. I followed both Plagron and Canna's feeding schedule and i was happy with the results.
Shape : 8/10 - A relatively tall plant with dense buds and thick buds. I think with better training she would have resulted in a smaller plant and more dense.
Flavour & Smell : 9/10 - Very smooth smoke, Bung, vape of joint. onset of 5-7 minutes with a strong body stoned and light-medium head high. after smoking a joint last night we binged several Netfilx EPs. I don't give it a 10/10 because the name is Lemon Kush but I didn't get that Lemony flavour. Its more earthy & Woody. Still, a great smoke for the evening time.
Last Notes : Thanks to my GF for finishing this diary for me. I was traveling for a long period and without her dedication and assistance this grow would not have been possible
Hope you enjoy the bud p0rn
