The plants are doing amazing! Both are producing more and more trichomes, and the buds are noticeably thickening up.🌱 #1 (the tall one) continues to impress—it’s now giving off a strong tropical mango scent! The aroma is so sweet and fruity, it’s crazy. Meanwhile, #2, despite being so small, has developed a surprisingly large main bud! The smell is completely different, though—leaning more towards a hazy, complex scent that’s hard to describe.šŸ¤” Super happy with the progress so far—let’s see what the next weeks bring!😊

The plants look stunning, beautiful strain to grow and work with for sure, I cannot wait to smoke those buds, the fragrance has instantly make me want to run her again most definitely, the stretch has been really noticeable and and both phenos have a lot of flowrs, looks very productive plants, looks like a solid strain, both phenos smell the exact same, this 4th week of flower it's gonna be very exciting, I only water šŸ’¦ the medium when dry and that's it, FLO Living soil blends does a sensational performance keeping your plants well fed all the way from seed and also provides you amazing results in terms of quality of the flowers, the smell is so pure and it makes every strain perform to its best, I'm definitely in love with this living soil blend, and also in love with this couple of badazz OG cheese guys. Please stay tuned to see how this ladies keep developing! ā¤ļøšŸ’šāœŒļø

Week 10 - Second Week of Flowering 🌸 As week two of flowering begins, the garden’s growth is unstoppable! These ladies are thriving, stretching up while staying beautifully vibrant and green. Every inch of this tent is optimized—each plant is soaking up light, nutrients, and water precisely as they need, filling the room with energy. Room Conditions šŸŒ”ļø • Temperature: 27.3°C • Humidity: 62.6% • COā‚‚ Levels: 800 ppm • VPD: 1.36 kPa (excellent range for robust flowering) • Lighting Intensity: 818 PPFD Solution & Medium šŸ’§ • Solution Temp: 21.5°C | TDS: 470 ppm | pH: 6.02 • Medium: Moisture 100% (recently dried to 67%), TDS 510 ppm, Temp 22.5°C The ā€œdry-outā€ to 67% was a strategic move, helping boost nutrient uptake and root strength. Meanwhile, our slight increase in reds seems to be having the desired effect, nudging these ladies further along in the flowering process. Eye Safety & LED Lighting šŸŒžšŸ•¶ļø With powerful LED systems like the ThinkGrow and ICL-300, eye protection is critical. LED grow lights emit high-intensity light across the full spectrum, including intense UV and infrared components that are not easily detected by the human eye. Long-term exposure without adequate protection can lead to eye strain, and in extreme cases, damage to vision. • Blue Light Hazard: LEDs often have elevated levels of blue light, which can harm the retina over time if proper precautions aren’t taken. • UV Protection: Even low doses of UV can accumulate and harm eyes, so grow glasses with UV protection are essential for any indoor gardener. Investing in quality grow room glasses can help protect from glare, UV, and infrared rays, making plant care safer and more comfortable. Lighting Enhancements: ICL-300 In-Depth šŸ”† The ICL-300 is our newest addition, specifically designed for inner canopy illumination. This LED offers a targeted light boost under the canopy, enhancing flower growth in lower and shaded areas—ideal for maximizing yield and light efficiency. • Dual Spectrum Technology: The ICL-300 provides a custom spectrum designed to penetrate deeper into the plant canopy, promoting robust bud formation throughout. • Enhanced Light Distribution: With strategically positioned diodes, the ICL-300 reduces shadowing and balances light distribution to all parts of the plant. • Energy Efficiency & Heat Management: This light is designed to be energy-efficient, running cooler and reducing the risk of heat stress within the grow space. The inner canopy light gives the plants exactly what they need, particularly during the flower stage when bud sites deep in the canopy can benefit from more direct exposure. However, after noticing slight leaf burn on some plants, I’ll hold off a bit longer before fully integrating this light to ensure optimal adjustment. Looking Forward 🌟 As we continue dialing in conditions, it’s all about balance, precision, and taking proactive steps to optimize every aspect of the grow environment. We’ll keep a close watch on the canopy height, and next week, I’ll aim to fine-tune the light integration even further with the ICL-300. P.S. - ICL-300 and COā‚‚ Sensor 🌱 The TrolMaster COā‚‚ Sensor (MBS-S8) has been crucial for real-time COā‚‚ adjustments, ensuring the plants get exactly what they need without constant monitoring. Combined with the ICL-300’s spectrum flexibility, these tools make an unbeatable setup, allowing for nuanced control over plant growth and development. As always, a huge thanks to the Grow Fam for the tips, support, and enthusiasm! I’m excited to see what these next weeks will bring as these plants reach their full flowering potential.

Mismos riegos que la semana anterior de acuerdo a la tabla de advanced nutrients. Las 4 nenas que estĆ”n en floración(maceteros de 11lt) beben mucha agua, 8lt cada dos dĆ­as y reciben un riego a la semana con nutrientes, el resto de riegos sólo con agua. Mientras que las otras 2 que siguen en vegetación (maceteros de 30lt) estĆ”n bebiendo 9lt cada tres dĆ­as, tambiĆ©n con sólo un riego con nutrientes por semana. Saludos! Muy buenos humos a toda la gente que le da vida y vibra positiva a este mundo šŸ’ššŸ€šŸ¤“

Caught up... things are going well, Bruce stretched like crazy and has evened up its canopy to the others idk if it's that big bud in it or what. Lilac has looked a solid week and half ahead of the others since flower, she looks wicked though, trichromes are starting to build. I've done my last training, I usually go hard on thinning but I'm trying to be conservative and only uncover buds under leaves. Still same feeding routine.. looking forward to the finish line but know this is an important time with terms and trichromes beginning to resonate... I sick at this guy's but I want to get better at chronicling my grows.. so hourly I will improve in the process of Journaling.

Chimera Cut - Anesia Seeds 124 days of growth and 76 days into flowering, and we’ve finally reached the moment we’ve been waiting for—harvest time! This beauty has exceeded all our expectations with massive buds covered in resin, emitting an intense aroma and showing off an incredible blue hue, exactly like the photo on the seed pack. We couldn’t be happier with the results! We decided not to weigh the wet buds; we’ll wait until they’re dried to get the final dry weight, but we’re confident it’s going to be impressive. A massive thank you to Xpert Nutrients for their outstanding support, top-notch service, and, most importantly, their amazing fertilizers that have allowed us to grow such powerful plants year after year. Without a doubt, your products are the key to our success. An equally huge thanks to Anesia Seeds for providing such incredible genetics. We are beyond satisfied with the results, and we can’t wait to grow more from your amazing seed collection in the near future. Oh, and we’ve already sampled the smoke—this strain is exceptionally strong and flavorful. From the very first hit, it’s clear you’re smoking something premium, top-shelf quality. Truly a connoisseur’s delight! Thank you again to Xpert Nutrients and Anesia Seeds for making this journey so rewarding!šŸ†

With the last heat wave, I had an answer to one of my questions, clearly my chiller is not doing the trick. I have water temperatures that went up to 27°, which is way too much, the plants deprived of oxygen, started to declare several deficiencies due to an assimilation slowed by the lack of oxygen. It is then that a nasty fungus came to say bijour, it is me MR pythium! It was necessary to act, at the risk of having to restart the culture. So I applied hydrogen peroxide and ROOT ROT X, and both products are doing harm to this nasty pythium, things are now back to normal. On the other hand, the plants had a decreased growth for 10 to 15 days, so I'm going to extend my growth for 10 to 20 days, that is to say 1 or 2 soups, I'll choose according to the root development of the plants. Before going to flowering, I have to catch up this delay in order to make a nice crop.

Fed and defoliated to start week 7. The plant looks good, with a bit of yellowing, but the buds are on point and look as expected at this stage.

Week 5 day 35 today I turned the plants 180° and defoliated not too sure if I absolutely butchered them but its done now time will tell....they've been watered straight after also I've noticed no yellow tips or deficiency on leafs all through pur which is shocking...this strain is the best one I have grown soo far I've done about 5 so far over 10 years with big gaps so learning again for sure slowly šŸ‘ would like to grow this again soon but properly next time... temps are around 26-27 still using the cfls to keep temps up and is going well so far. Im looking for seeds for next time I want to grow but can't seem to find this strain anywhere šŸ˜•

This week ia am planning to let it grow just like this. Hopefully I will receive a plant camera next week to monitor my VPD. Also added an IRheater to keep temperature stable The infrared heater does its job, but I find it a waste of electricity, 3.6 kWh in one night. So I've decided to install a gas heater instead, which delivers the same result at a much lower cost and also provides additional CO2. The heater can then keep the temperature above 21˚C with the lights off. The natural gas heater will be used with the lights on. I need to quickly find a CO2 sensor because too much CO2 has a counterproductive effect, as I've already noticed. Approximately 1200 PPM at 32˚C is optimal as long as I can maintain a DLI of 35. Great technology is on the way. Added: Installed CO2 burner, run it for 6 minutes every hour. Temp raises from 22˚C to 27˚C in about 7 minutes. CO2 detector (just colors, no values) doesn't alarm so not above 1500PPM CO monitor also no alarm :) Running for 4 hours now and a visible change is there. Tomorrow I will know if it is ok or not. Added a few pictures. Lets see if we can see the difference tomorrow. 26-05: Added Dimlux Maxi controller for CO2 and VPD. Works nice. 28-05: Topped a few 31-05 Added additional 300W to heat the stuff up. RH is stable but high on 72%. Could add a dehumidifier but since CO2 is already there and my VPD is around 0.8 I thought adding light would be cheaper. Can go up to 33˚C before my floor is heating up too much. Also cleaned the watertank. So from now on they are on Ata Max

Start of week 3 for Black Lebanon by SSSC These girls just got their day 21 strip.. Pheno 3 didn't get a massive strip because she seems to be a few days behind everyone else so I'm going to wait before i do the same to her but i did snip a few fan leaves that were blocking light. They've been getting fairly watered heavy when they do get watered 2/3 times a week but I'm trying to water more often in smaller amounts. Pheno 1 & 2 have been stretching like crazyšŸ˜Was really hoping pheno 4 would catch up but doesn't seem like the case. Plants are loving the Taurus TRS600 every time i come in they are praying. The feed is BioBloom by greenhouse Feeding at 2.5g per L of medium.

I took all the leaves off and started the drying process. I only LSTed for the first 30 days. Once a week I took leaf off. The plant made so many leaves so removing them was the best way to get light to my cola stacking were all the bud come from. See you after it dry's Footage before i chopped her down. https://youtu.be/MtVcWSeCFEk

All in all this was an amazing harvest I usually have around 8-10 plants and harvest anywhere from 24-36 ozs per harvest with the 8 plants I had this harvest including the biscotti mintz and cookies USA I ended up with 898g total dry weight with all top quality flower. I’ve learned some things with all my previous runs when it comes to dialing in my quality and yield and definitely watching for those herms because I like to push my plants to the max when it comes to training ! GMO PUnch -Greenpoint I’m giving this a total score of 7-10! Biscotti Mintz- Barney’s farm Total score 10-10 Cookies USA score 7-10
