•••••••••••••••••••••••••• Sept. 26 - Oct. 2 Week 8 of 12/12 •••••••••••••••••••••••••• WEEKLY SUMMARY: •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• 🙋‍♀️Fo' Twenny here!🙋‍♀️ We're back with another update on our 👴🏽💜 GRANDADDY PURPLE cultivar bred by BLIMBURN SEEDS! It's week 8 and all she is looking great as she progresses deeper into senescence; however, she is still a bit greener than either of her tent mates! She just seems to get frostier ❄️ by the day and her fragrance smells a bit sweeter than last time I ran her. I love her colors, the pink and yellow contrast is just beautiful! I keep checking trichomes, but still not a lot of amber. Maybe another week or more. Also, I realized my BlueLab Conductivity Meter has the option to switch to EC. Since EC is the most accurate way to measure the nutrient concentration in a solution, I will now be measuring and reporting EC readings rather than PPM. Any advice, suggestions, or constructive criticisms are always welcome. Now, for the weekly break down! •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• THIS WEEK'S BREAK DOWN •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• 9/26 - Day 50 of Bloom °°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°° - Upgraded from 8k BTU to 14k BTU portable AC unit! - Light selective defoliation. 🌿 🚿FEED DAY!🚿 - She received approximately 2.5 gallons of nutrient solution. I mixed 8 gallons of solution for all the plants I have in flower. 2.5 gallons of that was then measured and fed to this cultivar. After 10-15 minutes I added additional 12 oz of plain H2O pH to 6.3 👩‍🔬NUTRIENT SOLUTION👩‍🔬 ⬇️Mixing Rundown⬇️ - The solution starts with 12 gal tap H2O through two kdf filters mixed in a 36 gallon reservoir.

Chopping these little ladies was pretty simple because of their size but trimming was a sticky mess I had to clean my shears after every buds because of the amount of resin. I will be growing this strain again with an actual veg so I can see how great it really is and I definitely recommend you try it as well

I need to learn how to clone better. Half of them died. No skylotus clones survived. ALL of the Terpenado clones are making roots but Space Monkeys didn't make it and half the Herer Hashplants made it. I can pinpoint a couple errors I made: 1.) Didn't sanitize a god damn thing. 2.) Didn't cut the stems at a 45 degree angle. 3.) Put waaayyy to many nutrients in the cloner reservoir. I mean...one the Space Monkeys was just rotting the humidity dome. Terp 3 clone didn't even droop. Terp 2 clone died and Terp 1 made it out as well. I took more cuttings this week and put then in Root Riots. I have a good feeling about them. So good that I think I will flip to flower this week. Terp 2 has developed a powdered milk with strawberry scent when doing a stem rub. The other two are the same. Terp 3 is offensive. I fucked up again when taking a cutting from Terp 1....snipped another top. She's gonna grow like a snake. I am being overzealous with the nitrogen. The leaves are quintessential nitrogen toxicity at this point. Gonna flush for a day or 2 and then flip. Day 39 - Flipped to flower today. Most of them are starting preflower and I tried to identify the sexes. I'm hoping atleast 2 of the Terps are female...we will see though. I really don't wanna build a bunch of male isolation chambers right now.....didn't feed today. They have plenty of nitrogen. Day 40 - I have a skylotus that was germed at the same time as the terps and HE is a male. I hear that males will preflower earlier. I'm going to use this as a reference point and assume that my Terps are females since they haven't sexed yet. Of course...I could be completely wrong. First day of 12/12 and they are thirsty af. Nitrogen ended up not being a problem. I fed them bloom nutrient today to kick start flower. The extra phosphorous should kick em into gear. Day 42 Terp 1: Bright Strawberry Smell, almost no gas undertones. Not sexing yet. Might have issues from vermiculite mixture. Terp 2: Bright berries with strong gas undertones. Earthy funk somewhere in there too. The least bushiest out of all of them but good node spacing. Started off the smallest but picked up good speed later. Kept up with #3 well. Definitely not as hardy as the other terps. Her clones died while Terp 1 and Terp 2's clones feigned death but eventually gave me strong roots. Terp 3: Funky Strawberries. Like...Strawberry Fanta cut with diesel and old Bustelo coffee grinds. No bright berry scent. Makes me gag a little. Growth is superb. Strongest out of all three and a hungry gal to boot. Confirmed female as of about 2 days ago. She's fast, hardy, decent node spacing and gave me her terpene profile a long time ago. Was bigger than my Crem De La Chem of 4 weeks at 2 weeks. Didn't stretch until flower switch. Got a healthy clone of her too. So far she's the winner.

Day 1 Veg All 3 Fast Buds Afghan Kush Auto seeds popped and are looking good. I chose this strain because it’s fast, an 8 week autoflower. This will allow me to dry during the hottest part of the summer. I chose this strain because I think it’ll give me a good heavy indica in my availability. My wife loves it too. The Vipar Spectra XS2000 is set at 36” at 40% ish. I’ll be adjusting it as I see fit for the plants as they are indica dominant, they may need less light. This light preformed well with the GHS Super Lemon Haze Photos I did last round. Excited to see how they produce with an autoflower. I’d like to thank FastBuds and Vipar spectra for providing the seeds and the XS2000 for me to review. Happy Growing 🌱

Hey guys, it's been a great journey but I've finally hung my Stardawg out to dry! Yesterday was their last day totalling 8 weeks on flower. Realistically they could have benefited from a further week because the lower buds are somewhat underdeveloped but then I would risk losing the preferred sweet high smoke of the top buds. With this being my first attempt it's been a great learner not only for how to care for the plants but also the environment. As soon as these went into flower and started stretching I knew that putting 6 in a 2.4 x 1.2m tent was a bad idea. They just got so big which is the cause of the lower sites not being as good as the top colas. Despite that I'm really happy with the outcome and I'm hoping ive got 30oz+ of real good quality nugs. All of the top colas have turned a gorgeous violet colour too which you can see on the pictures and I absolutely love. For my next grow I've gone with 6 fastbuds strains which hopefully will go under a scrog. Check back next week for the harvest and weigh in!

Growing this strain was quite cool. A nice small grow or macro grow I should say. The plant seemed quite resilient which is always a good thing. I wish I could have waited another week before harvest but was getting complaints about the smell. Most of all I have to say I am rather impressed with my yield, I thought I would get 10 grams in a 4ltr pot maybe 14 at the most but ended up with 21 grams/ 3 quarters of an ounce, so next grow I'm hoping for an oz!

This was a beautiful strain to grow. With her flowers getting big towards the end of harvest as well as the purple colours! I would definitely recommend that you try grow this strain. The buds are super dense and very well formed. An absolute treat to smoke and look at.
