This strain was easy to grow. I started out without an hygrometer. Due to delivery problems i had it very late and my girl noticed that becauce the envirement wasnt optimal for her. She did survive that period, after that she got defoliated multiple times, and i got really rough with her sometimes and broke of some stems, and that was no problem for her. I also had an encouter with thousands of thrips, which i had to nuke to remove them from my girl and she didnt even bother. In veg she was a good to handle, in flower it was a little bit harder and i think she likes alot more PK at the end of her lifetime than i offered her. But thats more of a guess. The smell matches more a cross between blueberry and lemon kush in my opinion. The gelato part is not so noticable at the end of the road.(for me atleast) But the blue in other hand is very dominant and strong by smell and taste. I ended up with hardrock buds even the smaller ones, so im very happy with the outcome. Because of my thrips invasion and usage of bioquant, i wanted to wash my buds for once to clean of all the dirt, dust, insect remains and other particles that shouldnt be in my bud. I did the oh so underrated BUDWASH, and wauw if would deffinatly recommend it to every grower with just a few plants. It really cleans your buds without effecting your potency, terps and overall buds. I also noticed that all buds dried at the same rate cause of the evenly spead moisture i guess. I ended up with 48.34 grams of hard and dry buds I took about 10 grams and turned it into superdelicious rosin because i also love to dab 😍 Thank you growdiaries for this amazing platform. I wanne give a big thumbs up to Barney's Farm for this strain, Keep up the good work. Also a big thumbs up and thanks to all the growers and bud lover for looking @ my diary and especially if you liked it, i appreciate it very much. It was a great journey and experience for me. Thanks again and till next time. And dont forget, Always Keep On Growing my friends, Peace. 😎✌️🏾

12/7 Week five and in full flower. Runoff was way high 1400-1700 ppm this accounts for the tiny white tips on new growth. Increased amount to 0.5 gal once a day but may have o go back to twice a day. Still on half/grow half/bloom until the stretch plays out still trying to hit 700ppm of feed without runoff exceeding upper limits so feed alone is running 600ppm to counter the hard water. Once I have a handle on the runoff will up nuets. After some thought and a bit of reading I decided to do this as a root drench and fertilized flush to remove all salts from the pot. 0.5 gal 5.7PH CT Grow AB / Kangaroots /Fish Sh!t with @50% runoff - 950ppm (unadjusted 750ppm adjusted) in / and 1020ppm out. See how things look in 24 hours. 12/12 Feed set to 800ppm still half grow half bloom 12/13 Some pics lights on just getting the hang of it Nuets now just the Coco Tek half grow half bloom 800-ish ppm 15% runoff 2.5 quarts 5.9PH at lights on

12/11/2019 Update is a couple days early but, I'am quite happy with growth this week, transplanted #1 to a 3gal, pot added p Plant Success 3-1-2 With Myco and tricoderma..?,. That should aid in reducing transplant shock, #2 transplant next week need more soil. 12/13/2019 Uploaded pic, hope to do video but we will see. #1 is 5.5" tall # 2 is 3" tall but fatter leaves both are nice dark green. They do not mind the cold, 60°f temps for past couple weeks in fact they have done better at lower temps than anything else I have growing, but I am putting in another heat mat to get soil temps up around 72°f. For other plants they should do well. 12/16/2019 can't seem to get Pics to upload,but #2 has some stinky citrus smell and is at 5" today only one inch shorter than #1,while #1 has a more veg smell, and paler leaves, #2 dark green. Also I believe is Saw my first Preflower on #2 today.🙏 12/19/ 2019start week 6 veg can't get pics uploaded but will add soon as I can. This week Repotted,lite watering to make sure she searches for water, will feed next week lite veg feed maybe trim a little. 🙏

12/13 Continuing to leaf tuck and play with the sticks to bring out the tips Love how its growing as it may be here longer than planned so nuets are now at half grow half bloom early in attempt to keep em in veg longer. They had zero stress or deficiency in their little lives so far and that's showing in a longer veg period were it not for a new dry and grow coming up I might be tempted to let one finish under the LEDS, liking the new lights loving the coco and Coco-Tek (sole nuet atm)looking for ways to cut my work load 😁 See if I can buy the Stardawg another week or so Feed set to 825-ish ppm 20% runoff at 2.0 quarts 5.9PH Almost forgot, getting one of these reptile heat lamps for every tent they are loving the 24hr IR, an island paradise in the frozen north 12/14 Foliar feeding mainly just because I had it made up used as a preventative. RO water, wetting agent, 1ml CalMag/quart, both plants at lights out. 12/15 Defoliation day - opened them up cleaned up lower end pics later maybe tons going on 12/16 Feed reduced 100ppm to 725ppm due to white tips on new growth, 30% runoff just to be sure. 12/17 Feed was good the white tips seem to be diminishing at least none on new stuff overnight Removing Bloom nuets so all Grow , see if she flowers now, beginning to think there is something to this as never had an auto go this long in veg. Foliar of Cal-Mag 1ml/qt +wetting solution as a preventative as seeing some "ghost" signs in some leaves, cant hurt as you really have to look close. 12/18 Guess who is going into flower 24 hrs after removing bloom nuets? Not completely but its beginning fast, this last week of veg. Folded back in 2ml Bloom Going to try that seriously on our next auto run but that's months away as two photo grows are on tap.

this week is doing fine watching them grow after last week F.I.M and topping they look healthy and are recovering from past root rot problem for me calcium hypochlorite and blanking the bucket with thermal reflective material saved my grow and after all im not adding more chlorine than regular tap water since im using reverse osmosis keep your roots healthy and is basically the same as UC roots

Las plants estan gorda con un olor de naranja muy fuerte

Day 47 ( 10 in flowering): Happy days here in the Farm. These ladies have been stacking up their bud sites ready for the big build it seems. Limbs are nice and chunky to support the upcoming baseball bats , and their general health and colour is looking good. I have the rh at 70% and will lower that soon to encourage some oil. The Los girl is flying with very little input needed. She will get a top dress of charge, life cycle and watered in with biosys tea on her next feed. The Coco Mc girls are vibrant and a beautiful green colour so should be powerhouses for the bud stacking. I do want to defoliate a bit but will wait a little longer while they still sort their stretching out. All the budsites are able to get light so their bushiness isnt an issue yet.! .I think they will go to another 5 weeks before harvest though which gives them ample time to pack in those buds. Until next week , peace and love gd fam

Topped at day 22. All plants seems to be taking both topping and lst very well. Have also replaced the lights from Apollo8 led 300w to Optic1 led cob 54w x2. The gift from opticgrowlights couldnt have come just in time for xmas. Big shout out to the man at optic headauarters "Jesse". Thanks alot for your help and patience buddy! Reccomend this optic1 lamps to all my fellow wardrobe/tent growers

Moving forward, blooming nice, this second gen is taking form and gaining weight. A few weeks and we will have a nice harvest. Tent is nicely populated and filled. Once i have setup the “semi scrog” it has conformed to it in a couple of days and did a massive difference. It really opens the canopy and create a huge surface to take advantage from the light as opposed to letting it go naturally. I’m defining the technique as semi scrog because i did not setup the net in a traditional early way knitting in veg... It was done later.

My grow space Got Takes Down, sorry for the lack of photos in the ending in the last few diaries

Weeks with so many changes. I've passed all this time finding best configuration nuts, adding and removing from every irrigation in little quantity, from infinite different bottles, but EVERY TIME some miss, some deficiency appear. i mean that Plagron doesn't have ALL the necessaries traces for growth, Advance nutrients so difficult to calibrate, and every irrigation was a nightmare until now now i'm using MEGACROP like base nuts with some booster (if girl tell me need it) and plants restart to growth and being beautiful don't want to pay for water in my nuts, don't want to need every time calcs when i need to change rates anymore now girls looks perfect and i'm feeling stupid 'cause it's so easy to don't have problems Just use MEGACROP ------------------------ Purpp #2 and Gelato FB #1 went in flower during this week i think it will stretch next one others (with same birth) have preflowers

8th Week Report 05/12/19 - 12/12/19 In photos CMXL is on the left and LSD on the right 05/12/19 Didn't changed reservoir as is more or less half capacity full. I plan to change it on the beginning of the next week(12/12/19). 09/12/19 Added a small and cheap diy dehumidifier kit built with a Peltier module (search on Amazon Peltier dehumidifier) 10/12/19 CMXL got a light defoliation where I removed bigger fan leaves covering lower bud sites 11/12/19 Even if they look healthy I added a small Humidity and Temperature sensor to be sure humidity doesn't get too high and let the mold form. However you will get an average humidity level the next week after some tests/readings. 12/12/19 I plan to change reservoir solution and increase its strength to 90% tonight, but diary will be updated with new values with the next week ;) For tomorrow (13/12/12) is also planned a stronger defoliation to CMXL before she gets in full flower, I hope it helps to achieve a better light penetration into the canopy and also it could give an extra stretch to the plant since I noticed that even after a small defoliation she stretches a little faster for a while. As you can see from photos/videos LSD is just doing good and probably she won't need extra training. Her sugar leaves are getting frosty as ice ;) Last Update 12/12/19 See you guys ;)

Checkout my Instagram @smallbudz to see the Small budget grow setup for indoor use, low watt, low heat, low noise, step by step. 13/12/2019 - Change the light schedule to 12-12h after 8 weeks of no signs of flowering I think is a photo not and auto. 16/12/2019 - Fed her 1.5l of 6.5PH water with 0,5ml of each: Grow, Bloom and Max, and 1ml of each: Heaven, Alga-mic and Vera, noticed about 10% run off, I use about 1/3 of the nutrient dosage on the chart, to achieve about 200/300PPM (500 scale). 17/12/2019 - Did some defoliation on the lower branches mainly.

Day 47 ( 10 days flowering): Another week passes and these girls take full advantage of the available resources. #1 in the e ecothrive soil is killing it for size , bud sites and general health . Their is a clear difference between them all in the Los compared to the coco , mc fed plants. I do suspect 3 different phenos of the smoothie and others in this run but they are all 3 different. #2 is now under the TSL-2000 with her sister as she outgrew the light height in the middle. I have not out too much on her as she still looks very odd with discolouring and a cabbage look to her leaves. she is nowhere near as big overall but is straight up with no lst so should still give some decent bud. #3 Is the little lady of the three and looks like a totally different plant than the other two. very stout and robust and will no doubt produce some fatties judging by her branch sizes. I am glad I have the sp250 for the smaller ones or they would be pain to keep level canopy wise. The 20L pots could have been a mistake and bigger could have been better. I wont be sure it it was pot size or medium that gave the LOS the edge.lol I am loving the #1 girl and her size is huge. she could use a light of her own !! peace and love folks. green days.

Plants just won’t stop growing, seems like I get up everyday and they’re just exponentially bigger, looking back at the yellow crusted half dead plants I had in earlier weeks they definitely look healthier although I see some nute or light burn on the tops of some leaves. I welcome any advice from growers to help me along the way

Day 47 ( 10 Days flowering): My last to update but by no means my least.!!. This strain is my favourite grower at the moment. This could change on harvest of the 4 strains but for her growing and training , she stomps it for me. # 1 In the living organic soil ( LOS ) is the biggest by a mile. This medium is a winner for me. The ease of use and the results for very little input now are amazing. Her pot is teeming with green life to keep her mulch layer active , her limbs are thick and ready to hold weight and she is covered in great bud sites. My clear favourite of the grow right here. Her buds are still looking very young but I suspect her slower building will be her sativa leaning and I think she will be one of the last out .lol #2 is keeping her pace with her sister quite well. There is a big difference in sizes which could be pot size but I suspect more medium based. She is a fair size and will be a good yielder. #3 As with the other strains, is the smaller of the 3. Coco and Mc cannot keep pace with their organic competition it seems. She is formed really well beneath the canopy and her limbs are nice and thick for holding the huge buds she will pack on. All in all , a great week and more to come.
