Not an overly impressive strain and I would say she was not that hard to grow. If I even grew this one again I would let it go naturally with some LST. Wanted more grape flavours but they don't really come through in the smoke. There's a bit of a sharp fruity smell that's sort of piney with a hint of fuel at the end. The smoke is not too flavourful in my opinion but that just means I didn't grow it well. Super tight nugs so be careful with humidity as stated above. Also she's a bit of a light feeder so be careful with your nutes. As you can see I burnt her tips and over fed her a lot. Not a bad yield though! I've only really smoked the lowers on this one so far so that gave me a bit of a racey high, just slightly racey. I would accredit that to the lowers not being mature enough at chop. The plant is super dense and since I mainlined it the lowers didn't receive enough light. I tried to let the lowers mature more but the plant stopped maturing when I chopped the tops, this caused stress and the plant just shut down basically. Not sure if I would grow Blimburn's GDP again until I grow the real GDP.

Besides the top coals getting heat stress it was a good week :) Raised the nutrients levels this week to 10ml each except for MagnifiCal. Midway through flower they don't require these nutrients thus you'll begin to see the colour changes in the leaves. Was completely out of room to raise the lights which resulted in doing some emergency supercropping. A bit late in flowering to be performing this technique but their was no other option Some light defoliation throughout the week. Don't want bud site to be covered

Die Letzte Woche war hart. Die Lampe habe ich zur Vorsicht wieder auf 127 Watt gedimmt. Bob hat zu zwittern angefangen und ich habe einige Bananen entfernt. Ich hoffe die Schnittstellen erholen sich, doch bisher bin ich guter Dinge. Aufgrund der möglichen bestäubung habe ich jedoch keine grossen Erwartungen mehr an das Endergebnis. Nichts desto trotz sind die Topcolas wirklich saftig und dick. Der Geruch im Schrank ist Muffig, Süss und fruchtig. Die Mädels erholen sich soweit und werden wieder elastischer und klebriger. Ich verzichte nun bewusst darauf, die Pflanzen zum Fotografieren aus dem Zelt zu stellen und beobachte nun täglich mit Adleraugen die weitere Banenenentwicklung sowie Trichomreifung

Big change as they go into big pot and three stay as solos. Re potting wasn’t as easy as I’d hoped and the roots got messed about but I was as gentle as can be 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻

For the Herbies contest - https://growdiaries.com/diaries/157348-grow-journal-by-dabbertglobberfield#gallery=6777378 - Grandmommy Purple is guilty multiple noise violations for being too loud and for stanky funk. Harvest - 169 days / 66 days in flower Well, we did it. I made it to the end. All I can think is...WOW that was A LOT of work. But I think I had very good results for a first time grower. I For harvest, we took Plant B and D and prepared them for immediate freezing. Altogether, I ended up with 1212g wet on plant B and 1089g wet on plant D. I ended up freezing 1816g of this. There was some from each of these plants that was set aside from freezing because, for whatever reason, I thought they were not worthy of washing because of how progressed the leaf damage was from the root rot battle. So that was cut up and dried as nuggets instead of hanging like the rest. Sawtooth and Plant C were both harvested and hung in the tent to dry for 12-13 days. I think I overdried by 1-2 days because when I jarred them they struggled to raise up to 55%. So I am using rh% packs. After drying Sawtooth and plant C, I ended up at 459.8g for dried flower and 170.8g in dried trim. So just over 1lbs between the 2 plants and 4.15lbs wet between the other 2 plants that was washed for hash. So... are you for real with the effort involved with washing bud for bubble hash? I don't think I would do this in the warmth. I only pursued doing bubble hash cause it's cold right now and I figured that would really help. Even in the 30s(fahrenheit) stuff would stick. It's hilarious how sticky of a process this is. I hope you have a bunch of gloves, water, and ice to burn through. I went through over 60 gallons of distilled water and 80lbs of ice to wash the 4 lbs. I am envious of people in videos using a hose to collect, clean, and refill. Also, doing this as a 1 person show is the definition of insanity. I broke the washings up into 3 parts. The first part was was the tester wash. I broke off 420g of plant D's 848gs available. I used 7 bags to see where I would end up. I used 220, 160, 120, 90, 73, 45, 25. What I determined was that if I was hunting a specific micron with a lot of material this would help find what you can get. But for the next washing I reduced the amount of bags to 4; 220, 160, 45, 25. The time, with the 4 bags, I washed with 809g. I had a much more favorable experience and return this second time but I had green fast and probably used too much ice. The 3rd wash was the remaining 631g and I found an extra 137g I added of sugar leaves and trim, brining the 3rd wash to 768g. I used 5 bags this time; 220, 160, 73, 45, 25. By the 3rd wash I have become an expert in collection but also never want to do it again. lol. 2 of the 3 washes have dried and I have 43.4g of bubble and 2.8g of dry sift. 37.4g of that bubble is able to be pressed into rosin. I will probably press that dry sift as well. The other stuff is 25u or 160u that I will experiment with or cook with. The other stuff is drying so I can't add it all in. I pressed a bunch of trim and some flower. The trim presses nice and the dab is decent. I am working out a good temp for the flower. But the problem with all these tests to find the sweet spot is that I have all these testers to go through but want to keep pressing and trying that! I think I will need to work on a better storage solution. I can't wait for the fresh frozen bubble hash rosin pressing... I have over 20gs of bubble to put in one bag. I am really looking forward to this. But I will need to work up to that pressing since I have never pressed hash/kief/bubble before in my rosin press. So this should be really fun. I will 100% post an update of the hash pressing once I do that and also after the 3rd wash session is done drying. In closing, saying I learned a lot from this grow would be an understatement. I fully expect to start it back up in a few weeks after some R&R then some R&D. There's some things I will need to work on before I start again, such as: having a single external reservoir that feeds multiple plants, hard to clog and easy to use ebb and flow system, miscellaneous final run stuff like space for drying. So thanks everyone for hanging out and perusing the photos and or reading all my huge rambling updates and thanks to those for the help along the way.

was originally going to do scrog, I realised I'm not going to have quite enough room for a full scrog so I'm thinking about some sort of mix between scrog and sog. If anyone has any suggestions and ideas please let me know. Thanks.

**Encontrarás la traducción a español al final de la descripción** From/Desde: 07/10/19 || To/Hasta: 13/10/19 From day/Desde día: 77 || To day/Hasta día: 83 If you like this week, please hit a like, it costs you nothing! 👊. Thanks in advance 😉! -----WEEK SUMMARY----- The colas have already begun to be well defined this week, as it can be seen. It does not seem that the buds are going to cover from the bottom to the top because there is much space between the middle nodes. I really don't know what this may be due to, probably because of lack of light or by using nutrients in the wrong way. The same happened to me with the Gorillas and Money Makers in my last diary and in that case I attributed it to the failed defoliation I made. This week I begin to detect a deficiency of magnesium in one of the large leaves (or so I think), even so within 2 weeks I do not take precautions because until then it was not obvious to me (serious error). On the other hand this week I started to go hard with the E.C. in the irrigations, I trusted that I was not feeling so bad E.C. sings on Alice and the problems came all at once within 2 weeks. -----WATERING CALENDAR----- 08/10/19 DAY 78 - 3 l with BudCandy, BigBud, Bloom Nutrition & Stimulator, RhinoSkin, B52, Nirvana, Sensyzim & PKBooster @ (2.3 EC | PH 6.4 | 24.8ºc) 11/10/19 DAY 81 - 4 l with Megabud (1 g/l), SilicaPower, Budcandy, BudFactorX, BloomStimulator & (BigBud & BloomNutrition) half dosed @ (2.1 EC | PH 6.3 | 24.5ºc) *****ESPAÑOL***** Por favor, si te gusta esta semana dale un like, no te cuesta nada 👊. ¡Gracias por adelantado 😉! -----SUMARIO SEMANAL----- Esta semana ya se han empezado a definir bien las colas, como se puede observar no parece que los cogollos vayan a cubrir de la parte inferior a la superior pues hay bastante espacio entre los nodos medios. Realmente no se a que puede ser debido esto, probablemente por falta de luz o por estar usando los nutrientes de forma equivocada. Esto mismo me ocurrió con las Gorilas y Money Makers de mi último diario y en ese caso to lo achaqué a la fallida defoliación que realicé. Esta semana empiezo a detectar una deficiencia de magnesio en una de las hojas grandes (o eso creo), aún así hasta dentro de 2 semanas no tomo precauciones pues hasta entonces no se hizo obvio para mí (grave error). Por otro lado esta semana se me empezó a ir la mano con la E.C. en los riegos, me confié en que no la estaba sentando mal tanta E.C. y los problemas vinieron todos de golpe dentro de 2 semanas. -----CALENDARIO DE RIEGO----- 08/10/19 DÍA 78 - 3 l with BudCandy, BigBud, Bloom Nutrition & Stimulator, RhinoSkin, B52, Nirvana, Sensyzim & PKBooster @ (2,3 EC | PH 6,4 | 24,8ºc) 11/10/19 DÍA 81 - 4 l with Megabud (1 g/l), SilicaPower, Budcandy, BudFactorX, BloomStimulator & (BigBud & BloomNutrition) half dosed @ (2,1 EC | PH 6,3 | 24,5ºc)

What an incredible journey this has been! From start to finish, these plants dazzled at every stage. The drying process was a bit of a marathon – 21 days of suspense. But now, they are absolutely perfect. They snapped off the stems with a satisfying crunch – straight into my rolling paper for, ahem, "quality control" purposes. I'm beyond excited to have 2 more seeds ready for the future. Though I won't be growing them in my next round, I can't wait to see what they'll do next time. These gorgeous ladies have rewarded me with a whopping 248 grams dry! I'm in absolute weed heaven. Now comes the hard part – keeping my hands off while they cure and reach their full potential. My trusty humidor will help make sure they become everything they're meant to be. Here's to a fantastic harvest and many more green adventures ahead! 🌿🎉

Commencing week 5/Day 29: on Nov 21st Day 29 All is doing well now and a few more plants have roots in water but tomorrow is going to be well below freezing as well as the humidity has dipped very low Day 32 Still growing steady the cold temps and low humidity haven't hurt or slowed them down too much Day 34 Happy to say 6 out of 8 girls have pretty massive root masses developed in past week into bucket. I have been very lightly foliar feeding every day a slightly acidic low ppm solution. Lights were put back on timer since the temp and humidity are going back up I don't need the lights for heat. pH has remained steady for past two days in low to mid 5.8s. Is this too steady I wonder 🤔 I put on fans today today as well as under lighting LED strip. D35 Am check-in and all is going well. All 3 Gorilla Zkittlez are absolutely killing it, way bigger than the rest of the bunch. Although the 818 Headbands and the Raspberry Diesel are not far behind. Unfortunately both the Boss Hoggs seems to be runt-ish. One especially is really funny looking. But I always cheer for the under dog in the fight so who knows 😎 Turned off under lighting. Raised overhead LED Panels up 3-6 inches and re-oriented (angled) towards girls. *I've decided to break off the barely mentioned personal crosses into their own journal in the next few weeks in case anyone was watching or wondering, it's coming. I'll be editing this journal accordingly when the time comes to be more accurate and useful. Lastly I am adding a new journal today for "🍋🍰" aka Lemon Cake by Moxie. It's terpalicious 👅. super sugary and lemony on the nose. Does anyone from the US or elsewhere know what's "Country-Time" lemonade mix is?? It makes your mouth water and smells almost too much like the sugary lemonade mix. Stay tuned 💚🙏
