Week 2 of flower 12-5 She is growing nicely. She got a good dose of microbes yesterday. 2k ml she got cal/mag 5ml per gal, Drops 1ml, dusting of yucca, Kelp 1/16th tsp, EM 1 1 ounce per gallon and 1/2 tsp recharge. Top dress is soon. She will only get water x2 waterings. 12-7 2.5 liters plain water ph 6.2 removed any leaf pointing inwards. Fully watered love it. Doing great. Hope not to touch a leaf for a week. Fat chance, but heres for hoping 🤞 12-10 Removed some leafs 12-11 Looks like water tomorrow.

In general, I liked growing this variety, the only thing is a lot of small leaves, it is not very convenient to cut, but the colas are very dense and weigh well, there are also many small stepsons, although I cleaned up during unnecessary time, powdery mildew appeared after the rain, which is difficult get rid of the large number of leaves on the plant, and it's very good)

My cat died this morning !! It was my painkiller with weed when the disease was breaking my balls !!! His name was RICK and his Sister named MORTIE. Rick was the sweetest cat of the world. apparently he had an autoimmune disease which took him away. he was 4 years old. RIP my RICK

So far they are both not looking like winners :(, but I’ll keep them runting away for the contest sake. But I can honestly not understand what stunted them like this and caused this kind of mutation. The rock-wool was properly balanced, light was also dimmed, no sign of nutrient burn or deficiency….Very strange. The one that didn’t popped was replaced by an Afghan auto which so far is not showing any issues on the same feed.

อยากทำดอกแล้ว แต่อีกชุดยังทำดอกไม่เสร็จ ชำรอทำจำนวนไปก่อนแล้วกันนะ 💚👍🏼

This is flushing week. It’s a long debated topic whether to flush organic or not, but according to Biobizz this is the way to go. Some amber trics have appeared already, so next week she will reach choppington town. It’s crazy to think about this is just half of the battle, the drying and curing must be done right too. I have high hopes for this strain and can’t wait to try the first sample!

Defoliated here and there, she's stretching hard now so I'm gonna have to wait a few more weeks before I can really start stripping and defoliating her. Because I LST, topped, and then super cropped all the main branches, there's way to much branches for the available surface.

Bare in mind peeps, I staggered harvested her and took the top half considering my grow space did not allow any light to the bottom half so I harvested half of the plant and have given it to my brother, where he has put her back on nutrients and the lower half popcorn buds are still thriving, even though she has endured 1 week of flushing and 7-8 days in darkness on no nutrients. White pistols are still propping up. The dry buds weight (bearing in mind I only harvested her top half) is at 85 grams! My grow cupboard measured at a height of 170cm/1.7m and a width of 33cm/0.33m BIG SHOUTOUT TO the community and especially @mad_scientist and @SpinnerCaribbean for continuously supporting and assisting me with issues I faced! Without you, this journey would have been a lot more difficult! I cannot wait to start my second grow but cannot commit to one considering I'm in my final year of University and currently knee-deep in January exams! I hope you all enjoy my diary and please do hit me up if you need any assistance!

Last week happened a lot. I Was looking forward for day 49, because it marked the last foliation day. I put away the scrog net ä, because i think i just let those girl the freedom they need. The sidebranches got thicker, and I think i just let them go from now on. This is the first time im really giving nutritions, and the difference is huge. These nugs are crazy. They are 3 weeks before harvest much bigger than These from my first grow. I also have some cal/mag issues on my strawberry Gorilla and my Red mimosa. Lets see if I can handle it. Day 53: i think the plants are struggeling with the high variation in temperature. its between 10 degrees and 28. but i cant move them into a heated building. at least i hope that the yield will be ok, and next grow will be under other circumstances.

I had a lot of fun with this strain and it was grown against 400 growers so let me say PHENO hunting is a true thing. Overall the Bud was a nice dense structure and the smoke on it was smooth and the high nice and even.

So guys , after 4 days o germination in 0.3L pots , i decided to move them for 10-14 days in 2L plastic pots . I use the BioBizz Light Mix Soil , first time also , but until now i ve used beside the feeding scheudle also Soil with High Levels of NPK , so we burned the plants and stoped them grow. A LUMIX 250 W vegetative light bulb keeps them warm and in 2 weeks abot , i will do tge last transplant in the 15L fabric pots . Gold Label Nutrients and Supliments , whole professional line in small bottles ( think some of them will last for years ). Visible Mistakes and worries : - dont know if the Light Height is good now - when should i start the spider-mites and other acarians treatment or pre treatment -what level of humidity should be inside in diffrent growing stages -I m so scared about Male plants , i have no experience at all how to spot them I had a hard week , hope you had a better one . See you later !

Just a video of the girlies

Fattys gettin bigger & bigger,all seems to run smoothly, that was the last lst (I hope), thinking about defoliation next week, its a little jungle in there.

February 15, 2024 Welcome to the next installment of my grow world. This run will be a pair of Banana Purple Punch by FastBuds. Happily, I won these in a contest and will take great pleasure in growing them. So let's get into it. I'm running a 3x3 AC Infinity Grow System. It has a 4" exhaust fan and carbon filter. 2 circular fans with one oscillating. I may end up with a second oscillating fan in a couple weeks. We shall see about that. The Germination Center is also AC Infinity with the 12" supplemental lighting for the seedlings and a heat mat. I also have a small 4" computer fan, also from AC Infinity, to help regulate the air exchange in the Center. For the grow itself, I'll be using 3 gallon fabric pots and the AC Infinity bottom feed watering basins. I have used these for a few runs with these and I love them. Technically it's a hydroponics setup, but with soil for a medium. Speaking of soil, I'll be reusing my Sohum Living Soil. The last run had used soil and I ended up with 21.25 oz from a single plant. A few more things to mention about the expectations of this grow. I'll be implementing LST and SCroG if needed. I don't want to top them as I feel it slows down the grow and extends the time it takes to grow. As it stands, I have about 10 weeks until a contest I'm running in and this is an 8 week strain. Hopefully it doesn't take any longer that 9 weeks. If not, I'm kind of in trouble. Anyway, along with training, I'll be running a weekly dose of recharge and advanced nutrients 3 part base. This is living soil so it shouldn't need much for nutrients. However, 8 do have a regimen that I have ready to go if I need it. I'll also be using root riot plugs for the seedling stage. With the light at around 250 PPFD, I'll run the light at 18/6 from the start. That's all for now. See you tomorrow. February 16, 2024 Day 1: Both ladies popped last night and had little tap roots ready to go this morning. So they were planted in the root riot plugs. I don't expect them to be in the Germination Center for more than a few days. I prefer to plant in the final pot before the roots start to show through the plug. So like 2 days. Currently I'm warming up my soil from being out in the cold garage. I'll be filling up the pots probably tomorrow and have them in the tent for a day to acclimate and get some water before planting the plugs. Germination Center Environment: Temp: 77.6° RH: 82.9% VPD: 0.55 kPa February 17, 2024 Both ladies are showing some green coming out of the plugs. I feel like they will pop the surface later today. I'm having a bit of an issue keeping the temp above 75°. I'm sure it will adjust once the lights go on, but for now it's just below 75°. The humidity is a bit bouncy as I can't find the correct spot for the "exhaust fan" yet. It won't really matter until the lights go on and both ladies have popped. I didn't end up filling the pots up yet. I have to wash the basins out first. I'll do that today and prep the pots tomorrow. Quick Update: I turned the light on now that I'm seeing green but not quite popped yet. It should help with keeping the heat up. Germination Center Environment: Temp: 76.5° RH: 82.1% VPD: 0.56 kPa February 18, 2024 Both ladies popped their plugs last night. Perfectly green and healthy little stalks. Honestly, it's only been a total of 2 days and they have already popped surface? I don't think they will be in the Germination Center for too long. At this rate, they'll be in their final pots by tomorrow. I'll try to not let the roots grow out too much. Speaking of final pots, I have filled my 3 gallon AC Infinity fabric containers with reused Sohum Living Soil. So they are all ready to go. It's nice and clean and still perfectly moistened and fee of roots. I've also decided not to use humidity domes when I plant them. I will be using a humidifier and the light lower and dimmer to keep the RH in place. At least for a couple of days. I do plan on raising the light significantly and increasing the power. I genuinely feel that the perfect foot print for this setup is about 24" at 90% power. Any higher and light may be lost even at 100%. This is just my experience so far. But I wouldn't pay too much heed to it. I haven't been able to really test my theory out yet. My last couple grows had plants that were much too tall. Hopefully I can keep them short and wide this time around. Anyway, the supplemental light is currently at 60% power. The intensity is around 250 PPFD. I'll be running the light at 18/6 for the entire grow starting last night. I normally run seedlings at 24/0 and switch to 18/6 when the dome comes off. But this time I feel like trying a full 18/6 from day 1. It'll be interesting even if nothing happens. At least something to note. Quick Update: I decided to drop the light power down to 30%. I'll increase it to 40% tomorrow and so on until I hit 350 PPFD. Because this strain is super fast, I'm going to need to get up to 350 in a matter of days. Then the big light goes on. Germination Center Environment: Temp: 76.5° RH: 76.5% VPD: 0.74 kPa February 19, 2024 Today is a new day and a new stage. Both ladies were planted in their final containers. I watered them in with 250 ml of plain water PHed to 6.2. I didn't concentrate all of the water at the base. I made sure to start with 100 ml around the base and the rest covering the whole top soil. Their tap roots were poking out from the plugs already. I was kind of hoping for one more day in the Germination Center, but then I would have had to set up the nursery bags and that wasn't the plan for this run. Hopefully my calculations are correct with the 250 ml. I'm using the 3.4 gallon fabric pots from AC Infinity I already mentioned. They are also used from 2 runs ago and washed thoroughly. Domes were added and the main grow light is now on at 20% power. The light height is around 30" and the intensity is at 290 PPFD. It's a bit high, but the domes block out a bit of the light, dropping the intensity down to 200 PPFD. The tent isn't all that warm currently due to cold weather, but I'm hoping the heat of the main grow light will increase the temp in the domes. Currently the tent temp is 72° and the temp under the domes is around 68°. I'm hoping over the next few hours, the temp will raise up and the environment will stabilize. I can't keep the domes off either as the RH is hovering at 43% in the tent itself. I have a humidifier, but that dropped the temp down even more, hence the domes. Kind of a pickle I'm in. I'll keep trying different things until I get it right. I hope it won't take me more than a day or 2. If not the next few hours. Grow System Environment: Temp: 68° RH: 80% VPD: 0.49 kPa February 20, 2024 It's day 4 since seeds and these ladies are doing perfectly fine. Right on cue as well. I expect them both to hit the Veg stage in just a few days. Should be by the end of this first week. Maybe a day or 2 after. The domes are doing their job perfectly. Just a little bit of dew and the temps are finally leveling out at a reasonable number. 75° by the end of the morning, the environment should be spot on. That's all for the day. No watering. I'll water tomorrow another 250 ml for each baby. Grow System Environment: Temp: 75° RH: 75% VPD: ? (I'm taking readings from 2 different hydrometers. One of the main tent for temp and the one for the Germination Center for RH) February 21, 2024 Both ladies got another 250 ml of filtered water PHed to 5.8, spread around the entire pot surface. I was thinking about doing another 250 ml around the outside of the pot. It may be a good idea to start moistening the rest of the soil. So when they start the veg stage, they can take off immediately. I'll probably wait until this afternoon and then decide. I did notice that A had drier soil than B. B is in the front and A is in the rear. I wonder why that is. They look absolutely wonderful. Slightly praying and they both have really nice steady growth. The leaves are a beautiful dark green. So healthy and ready to go. The baby fan leaves have some really pronounced, serrated edges. As for lighting, I've been paying attention over the past day and I think the domes will come off tomorrow or the next day. The light may also need to be lowered when the domes come off. Currently the intensity is 200 PPFD. I think 300 PPFD should be a good starting point starting week 2. I've also been researching and I think I have a good light schedule for the whole grow. At 18/6 Week 1: 200 PPFD DLI: 13 Week 2: 250 PPFD DLI: 16.2 Week 3: 350 PPFD DLI: 22.7 Week 4: 500 PPFD DLI: 32.4 Week 5: 700 PPFD DLI: 45.4 Week 6: 700 PPFD DLI: 45.4 Week 7: 700 PPFD DLI: 45.4 Week 8: 550 PPFD DLI: 35.6 Week 9: 500 PPFD DLI: 32.4 This is based on a 3 week veg time and 5 week flower time. Update: Domes Removed. I was researching as to when to remove a humidity dome from a seedling and everything I've read is to remove them a day or 2 after sprouting. So I removed them. The tent has been sitting nicely around 68% and 77°. So everything should be fine. I'll have to keep an eye on the light. Without the domes, they are getting the full intensity. However, I'm not all that worried. They are both praying, so a bit more light won't hurt. Grow System Environment: Temp: 73.6° too low RH: 77.5% spot on VPD: 0.95 kPa estimate February 22, 2024 Not much to do today. I filled the humidifier, cranked the heat and spritzed the babies with a mist of PHed water. Took some photos and that's all. No adjustments needed. Both plants look absolutely perfect. Their leaves are flat, so I know the light is right where it needs to be. Grow System Environment: Temp: 75.9° RH: 80.9% VPD: 0.93 kPa

Well, I managed to do something that I really didn't expect :) the yield is small, just like the pot :) it was a wonderful trip ;) but from now on I will only grow it in big pots :) good luck to everyone :) I will add weight when it is ready :)

my dry and cure style is this: 4 days of hanging upside down to get water activity lower to around 0.6 in 50% humidity and 26 C temp (i know its a little high but we are in a hot summer right now and i cant get it lower even with air conditioner) and then after 4 days of drying i remove leaves and stalks, trim buds and move them to jar for the rest of their life :D . and in the first 4 days of curing i open the jar door and let hem get some fresh air in the jar for about 5 minutes and close the jar door again, after 4 days of curing like that buds are smokable but they will get better as they getting cured about 1 month. buds are one of the hardest as fucking rocks type of buds! very dense , compact , sticky , smelly , amazing at every aspect growing stage was 56 days and flowering stage was 75 days total (harvested tops at day 64th) the total weight of dry buds was : (plant #1 & #3 top buds 56 G + lower buds 22 G ) 78 G + (plant #2 top buds 47 G + lower buds 18 G ) 55 G + (plant #4 top buds 120 G + lower buds 67 G ) 187 G = 367 G
