Hello Friends and followers and new visitors welcome to week 13. 7/30-8/5 Goddesses are doing well. I'm seeing new pistils on some buds throughout the plants. 7/30 pictures videos and ferigate day. Each received 2 liters. Tps1 made at 2 gallon formula. Tps1 22.5ml Signal 9 ml Ec 1.14, cm 1140, ppm 790, ph 5.94. Added 2.5 ml ph up. This raised ph to 7.02 7/31 it's been so hot here lately. I made a lemon icebox pie. Very easy 10 min prep time but a 7 hour wait for chilling. It is refreshing on a hot day. Recipe in week 4 Of my recipe diary. It's infuseable if you make your own crust. 8 /1 took some close ups of the goddesses buds. I'm seeing lots of milky but no amber tricomes at 13 weeks 8/2 Fertilized the Goddesseswith 1 1/2 ltr fertilizer water. 8/3 flushed 1gallon followed by 1 liters fertilizer water. 8/4 no water or fertilizer. Opened tent to let in fresh air. 8/5 Busy today. The ladies in the Goddess tent went outside for their hair cuts. Lots of defoliation. I took off most 3 leaf feeder fans from both Gaia and Circe. Cleaned up cream caramel for the dry leaves. Interesting on Circe, every bud location had a single leaf feeder leaf of course with the three and 5 leaf sugar leaves as well Gaia did not have the single leaf feeder. Checked tricomes in top, middle and bottom buds. It looks like 90% milky. Ferigate 30ml Tps1, Signal 12, cal mag 20. Each lady received 3 ltrs. So, as it goes, I'm still going through boxes of Moms papers. In week 1, I told you about my grandfather establishing a homestead in Wyoming in 1906. Saturday, I came across the original land rights document issued from the President of United States, Warren G Harding, in 1923 to my grandfather. Stipulations of the Homestead act required that the owner make improvements and live there a certain number of years. All of the conditions were met. Let me tell you. Wyoming is dry and windy like a desert but cold. Noone wants to live there even now. The courage and fortitude required to uproot and establish a new life in an uncharted territory was passed on to my mother. Having attended several schools and colleges, she settled in Connecticut and went to Teachers College. After graduating, she signed up with the US State Department to teach overseas. Her first choice was Triest Italy, her second choice Tokyo Japan. We don't always get what we want: she got her second choice, Japan. And as the song says, you get what you need. After Japan, my dad was assigned to Langley Air Force Base in Hampton. The family moved to the states. After a few years settling into life in the states, my mom continued teaching elementary children. In 1969 she received "Teacher of the Year." The school she taught at was located in a low-income area with many underprivileged children. many of the children had reading difficulties. During the 1970s she returned to college to pursue advanced degrees in education, specifically learning disabilities. She changed school districts and once she completed her master's degree, she worked between 2 schools as the reading specialist. She received teacher of the year award again two more times before she retired in the 80's. As I mentioned in an earlier week, she was a lifelong learner. In the 1980's her quest for spiritual enlightenment began. She began attending holistic seminars for meditation, yoga, chakras, crystal energy, spiritualism, healing and many other "New Age" ideologies. I followed this same spiritual pursuit in the '70s and still follow many of the same isms. When I emptied out her apartment when she died in 2020, I came across some of the exact books that I had purchased, and still have, in my quest for spiritual truths. In 1866, Mucha witnessed the death and destruction of the from the Austrian-Prussian warwhen he was a child. After German invasion and occupation, a cholera epidemic broke out and the emaciated bodies were thrown in a mass grave outside of town. WWI broke out in 1914. 1915 Czechoslovakia took steps to become an independent nation. 1917 the russian revolution ended the tsarist regime to an end. 1919 WWI ends. Mucha witnessed first hand the loss and devistation wars bring. It was during the war, Mucha began his famous The Slav Epic. A series of paintings highlighting the trials and tribulations of the Slav nations for the fight for independence. These works of art were given to the City of Prague. After the war ended, Mucha designed Czech postage stamps as well as banknotes that were circulated in 1919-1931. 1933 Naziism is on the rise as Hitler's popularity increases. As the fear of war increases, he paints the "Light of hope". Soon WWII will break out. When Mucha was in his mid 30's he met August Strindberg who introduced him to Occultism and mysticism which have a significant impact on his life and work. In 1894 he bought a 10x13 cm rectangular format camera. This too becomes essential in preparing his compositions, and as a support in its own right. I have shown in my posting the various family photographs dating back to the late 1800's. Everyone wanted to have the latest technology with respect to the arts. Remember the theater was in its heyday. Mucha was painting the posters for the prima donna Sarah Bernhardt's theatrical performances. In 1922 , Mucha is elected Soverign Grand Commander of the Czech Supreme Council of Freemasons and wrote a book on Freemasonry in 1925. This was to mark the 333rd anniversary of the birth of Jan Amos Kaminsky 1592- 1670, consideredby many at that time to be yhe spiritual founder of Freemasonry. The mysticism books I have by Florence Scovel Shinn and Emmitt Fox were written in 1920s and 30s. The universal pursuit of man's higher purpose and the universal spiritual truths are reflected in my family letters. The pervasive topics were the war and the international conflicts resulting from one nation's desire to oppress and control, and through spiritual pursuits, the dream for world peace.

Looks like the beginning of some white hairs. Not sure if the beginning of that is preflower or if it'll be a couple days.

D23 Looks like the calcium deficiency affected the growth on #2 a bit as it is a little behind #1 D24 I cut off the infected fan leaves on #2 also it's looking really yellow D28 #1 really thriving compared to #2. Going forward I will be posting pictures of #1 only Made a newbie mistake and fed my girls without checking the ph level.... hopefully no major side effects pop up

1/11/25 these two phenos are literally the complete opposites. i labeled them from most sativa looking seedling, to the most indica looking. i believe #1 to be the closest to the mimosa parent and #5 may be the closest to the king kush parent. im not positive on this but one things for sure is that these are the most dramatically different phenos out of my 5 seeds. everything else kinda feel somewhere in the middle. its interesting and so far, every pheno has been something great. 1/12/25 checked the trichomes well today. #1 is interesting, she has a mix of clear and amber but not very many of them are cloudy. #5 has about 50/50 clear cloudy.

Really bulking out now and look like a lot of these colas will be filled out completely by finish looking at the rate they are growing and the fact they have 4-5 weeks left estimate. Cheesy smell is getting stronger but only within the tent when working in there and disturbing and moving the buds, once zipped up the filter handles everything fine. Crazy trichome production going on so early in flower , these are going to be some very frosty nugs.

Well I accomplished what i had set out to do, I have a IBL "In bread line " S1 feminized pile of seeds and a little bit of feminized pollen to chuck around and make a Frankenstein strain of my own. I really have to start my grows earlier to beat the heat in SoCal at the end it was to hot in the tent I wanted to go an extra week for the seeds to mature but I have more than enough ripe ones. this grow was more of an experiment that a controlled by the numbers operation. but I'm happy I got what I was looking for. cheers GD community Addendum so after a few weeks and more deseeding I took the 150g of popcorn buds and all the shake from the seeded buds about another 150g and made some bubble hash. I used the T check meter and this is on average 10% THCa considering the plant spent most of its energy and resources making seeds I am not surprised by its low THC level. I will hang on to the beans for now and the next round will be some AUTO's maybe at the first of the year when its cooler. total hash in grams 30g the math seems to work out on the return of 300g 10% is 30g there were 2 hash balls no pictured weighing 6g total. 25micron 73 and 120 might press the 120 and the 25 gonna save the 73 for special occasions. be safe all until next time.
