Seit 4 Tagen nun endlich befinden sich meine 3 Ladys in der Blüte. Schon nach 2 Tagen haben sie einen ordentlichen Stretch hingelegt. Leider bilden sie immer noch Zahlreiche Seitentriebedann aus, ich war auch schon kurz davor diese wegzuschneiden, doch ich befürchte sie könnten dann zwittern. Allerhöchstens entlauben kommt für mich jetzt noch in Frage, um die Qualität der Ernte nicht zu gefährden. Da nehme ich lieber weniger g in Kauf 👌

Week 4 was great. Tried upping the water amount a bit and it worked well on 2 of the 3 plants so I´ll just stay at the same amount as before for the plant that didn´t like more water. Buds getting bigger. Also 2 of the 3 plants are gonna have a longer bloom and it shows now as you guys can see. I just hope now that they will stay healthy because I´m happy with the progress. Thanks alot again for you guys giving me tips and tricks to optimize the grow.

Overall great strain to grow, and the smell is probably my all time favourite for this entire grow. Almost cookie dough - like! Smoke is smooth and very uplifting. I felt like I was a moon rock floating in space :)

9/20 Man I've been busy. I'm sick too. Looking back at my diaries I get sick this time of year every year it seems. Once I get the important stuff done I'll put some pictures of finished product up. Sunny today and windy as hell. All the plants left seem to be doing good and look like they'll finish. The pink kush might not finish how I WANT but it's stinky and has lots of milky trichs. I'm playing with fire with this mk ultra. It's fucking done. It could get a LITTLE more amber and maybe come together a bit more but I don't know if it's smart to risk it. Frost warning in effect tonight. I'll probably check the forecast and harvest tomorrow. We're having some good weather just cold nights. Then it turns to like a 30% chance of rain for 4 or 5 days. I'll yank it before that. This actually turned out tp be a pretty good year. Haven't tested everything (especially shit in the ground) but what I have sampled I'm incredible happy with. 9/21 IT was a balmy 36° on my way to the garden. My windshield had frost on it. Surprisingly the TIGHT nugs of the pink kush and this phenome of 10th planet didn't seem to mind it. Both strains are still increasing in size, smell and trich development. Not just changing but adding more. Trichs on trichs. Very in hospital environment. It will be interesting to see what happens with these girls. We will be getting some rain. I mean we've had SOME but I mean real rain. If thays the case I'll put these in the garage for a little bit. Honestly I thought these would be goners. I've gotta get to work trimming bucking and manicuring flower. Doing a garden like this sure is an awful lot of work. But the reward is worth every penny. WATERED EVERYTHING LEFT A HALG GALLON APIECE. PROBABLY SHOULDVE GAVE A GALLON BUT THEY WERE STILL A LITTLE HEAVY. 9/22 It rained last night and we got another frost. HAD to cut a main branch of the tenth planet as it had stem rot. Lots more cold weather coming. If I could get it done and I wasnt sick and have all this other material to process I would probably pull then. It's getting really cold. We're going to be getting rain. I'll check the weather and hopfully I can just put the movable ones in the garage. Either way things will work out. Pictures that will be coming will be of the finished product! 9/23 Had a super busy day. Had to but a branch off the pink kush due to stem rot. If I had time I would've taken it. It rained today but I think the plants will be alright. I've been working non stop. I may not have the quantity I'm used too but the quality is AMAZING. I can't wait to do the smoke points and put up finished flower. The other 10th planet seems to be doing really well. I expected nothing off that. I'll keep it updated but it's hard with everything going on. 9/24 Had more emergencies. Raining and cold. Finding stem rot a boytritus but not much. We are getting an inch of rain tomorrow and rain the next day. I wasn't going to watch my shit rot as it was hard as hell and all milky so I quickly waited for a break in the rain and harvested two pink kushes. Still have one pink kush in the 50 and the 10th planet. I cut a cola off 10th planet just in case. This should've been done yesterday but it is what it is. Even with ALL the damage this had been a pretty good year. I can't believe the quality of....well....everything lol. A couple take the cake but I'll wait to do that. I gotta get back to work. 9/25 Heavy rains today and tomorrow. After seeing the damage on the 10th planet and the stripped branches and dying leaves I took out the loupe and checked the trichs. It was a rare break in rain and the plant was luckily dry. After seeing the pistols change on many buds to pure red and seeing lots of cloudy trichomes abd swollen buds I was able to harvest it. I have one pink kush left that sea7s like a willow. I probably should've taken that by looking at it but the trichs had some clear on it. Lots of damage this year on all plants but the first special kush. The quality is amazing though. I havent got to try every strain but I am incredibly impressed with what I have so far. I stopped smoking dabs (for now) in favor of switching my different strains up. I hope that every gardener is able to instil there energy in the plant and gets the same feeling that I do because it's wonderful. I will do an independent review of each strain, and keep updated on last pink kush. 9/26 Boy that was a lot of rain. Pulled ONE molded bud off that pink kush. Probably should've left the other 10th planet but I was losing so much to damage that I wanted to cut my losses. Trichs were milky but could've gone longer. My stash this year is potent. I'll have some time soon and I'll do the reports on the others.

Buds growing well. I placed the fan at the back of the canopy to ensure hot air from the lamps are well extracted.

*Here is a link to video on the Harvest. https://youtu.be/aZUOrljaioc 9/23/23 - Day 114 - Today was going to be the Chop, but I will wait one more day. I was not able to dedicate the full time I needed to make this happen today, so I decided I would give it one more day. One thing I am noticing is the color of the leaves. I've always wanted to grow a strain that has purple in it, and it looks like this plant turned super purple. I couldn't tell because of the lights. 9/24/23 - Day 115 - I'm 2hrs away from chopping. With the Leaf box, you have to stay on your timeline, No rushing it, and no waiting. Always right on time. I started the grow at 3 pm 115 days ago so from 3 pm - 3 pm is a full 24/hrs. I'll update after 3 p.m. I already have my tripod, tools, cleaning materials, etc., up and ready. We will drain the water, ill then remove the roots and clean out the tub. Then, I'll start to remove the branches one at a time. Once they are removed, I will then get the hanging supports in place. Then I will hang them upside down and hope there is enough room. :) I've noticed I have a lot of views on this grow. One thing I feel I should do a better job of (based on all the messages I received) is documenting the process that I follow throughout the grow. So I'll start my next grow in November. I'll document it with better "this is how I do this in Leaf" type details. 2 hours and counting! See you at 3 PM! 9/24/23 - I started at 3 p.m. and finally finished around 9 p.m. Holy shit, am I tired...... I have a lot of pictures and videos to upload. I'll add some photos tonight with some videos to follow tomorrow. I don't know how much I have yet, I need to wait until I can jar them to weigh them. I was able to get all the buds off and hung. With a couple of bags of A/B stock (Snicklefritz) of leftovers that I didn't want to hang. In just the Snicklefritz, I had 219g of wet buds. Ill know the full dry amount in a couple of days. I was REALLY happy with the amount of buds. There were more than 75 branches of bud to hang/dry. Its the most weed I have grown ever. Now that the buds are all back in the box. The Leaf box will handle all of the drying process. It will maintain temperature as well as humidity. I now wait and check daily to check for dryness. Here is a link to video on the Harvest. https://youtu.be/aZUOrljaioc 9/26/23 - The buds are way more dry today. Im getting some really nice citrus smell from them. I think one more day should work before I start putting them in jars. I already trimmed them. Its a prefrence on trimming before/after drying. Becuase I had so much I wanted to make sure there was enough air space. This is my first grow in this box so this will be floor, theres no where to go but up from here. Im hoping to finish out this journal in September with a final weight.

Hello growers and tokers! 👋 👩‍🌾 🧑‍🌾.🔥💨 There has been much change this week!! First there was a big defoliation done, I cleaned the bottom of the plants. All the growth that wouldn't amount to anything because the light doesn't penetrate that low. Also took off the biggest fan leaves to give more room for light. Then finally switched to 12/12.. After just 36 hours after the defoliation there was a major change. New growth everywhere, colas started stretching upwards fast. By far the tallest girls in the tent. Her colas are stacking up nice and tight if she keeps that up we'll have some nice dense colas. 😁 Great reaction to the defoliation and 12/12 switch. I'm still watering every other day, After the defoliation I watered with only Enzymes 2ml/L to clean the roots a bit then started with the nutrientes again. I dropped the amount of grow nutrients from 3ml/L to 1ml/L and started adding bloom nutrientes 2ml/L for now. I'll slowly be upping the bloom nutrientes and after week 2 I'll no longer add grow nutrients. That's it for this week. Stay tuned to see how they flower. Stay safe!

Yes, the dream come true! Let's explain before harvest: The one transplanted it's the more advanced one in the flowering (harvest probably end of this week). She had just one topping and grew up very nicely, the buds are stinky but could be fatter (my light it's not enough i guess). 😏 The bonsai one I broke her without wanting to, but she survived and looks the bigger top cola it's from her. I really pissed her off but she respond with strength (a lot). So she had the worst LST you can imagine (lol) and also 2 supercroppings, it looks like this only made her stronger! 😎 The 2 toppings looks like she liked the fight too. With 2 toppings she looks like the one with fatter buds, with 6 colas. 😍 The untouched had been touch, one supercropping on her and that's it, she didn't grow like the others and looks like the youngest into the flowering. Conclusion: I'm loving this shit for real! As I see, you can stress your plant if you know what you're doing (even if not perfectly, like me). On my understanding, they're just like us humans, it needs some hard times and stress to evolve even more yall know!? The untouched it's the smaller, the bonsai grew up like bamboo and the other two (1 topping and 2 topping) grew like sisters and with beautiful colas! 👻😁

Beginning of week.. I went ahead and bumped the TDS to 1000 PPM this week. I don't think I'm going to go much higher than that. Usually don't have to.. Hopefully that's not too much.. I also started adding a bloom booster from Advanced Nutrients called Kushie Kush.. It works great for all strains tho lol. So the runoff is still acting up.. But it is getting better... Slowly. I emailed General Hydroponics on the issue a few days ago and they have not gotten back to me yet... Ugh. But going in: 1000 PPM.. Runoff: 700 PPM.. That was this morning.. Still have not given her plain water yet.. Just been feeding every watering.. Not really any signs of issues right now. A couple leaves are a little yellow (literally 2).. Another couple have some spots (maybe 4 or 5 leaves).. But other than that she is happy, healthy and smelling like a fucking champion! Seriously fucking delicious.. And to think the smell is supposed to warn off predators.. Hah! Good luck with that!!! Barely 8 days of flowering and she is already stacking so fucking nicely! I can't wait to see what kinda magic this gal is gonna do! So happy and excited!!! The light sits about 18 inches from the canopy right now at 100% power. She is still stretching a little but seems like she may be done with that pretty soon.. Maybe even before this week is over. Clones didn't make it.. I think it was too cold. They all sprouted roots but just stopped and they all yellowed out like a mf'r.. Looked like shit so I took them out back Ol' Yeller style and put them out of their misery 😭.. But it's ok.. The mama needs all the focus on her right now! Lol.. Oh yeah.. I went ahead and pulled a couple of the tallest branches down.. Just a tad.. Brought the ties up a node or so on each and pulled it tight.. Spread her out a little but I was nervous of snapping one off so I didnt try to push it too much.. These branches are tough af! Later that day.. General Hydroponics finally got back to me.. They said that I'm an idiot for using FloraKleen during transition like that.. Lol jk.. They did say that I should have NOT done that.. And that my runoff should ALWAYS be lower than it is going in due to the ppant taking up the nutrients.. But that just doesn't seem right to me.. Ive ALWAYS had my runoff higher.. Literally ALWAYS.. but without issues. They said that if the runoff PPM is higher, then there's a problem.. Maybe if I was doing frequent fertigation.. But I'm not.. And never will because that just sounds like a waste of nutrients.. But whatever.. Today I learned that FloraKleen is ONLY for pre-harveat flushing.. Or hydroponic reservoir cleaning in between nutrient changes.. But definately not the way I used it lol.. Thankfully she is still doing good 👍... Buuuut whoops lol Mid week.. Still doing magical things! Lol.. I didn't think she was gonna fill out this tent so nicely! Trichomes are forming nicely.. The purpling is looking amazing also! Some spots on SOME leaves.. But not alot.. Not sure what that is about.. No pests.. No deficiencies as far as I can tell.. Maybe just a mutation? Nothing to worry about tho.. This girl is so fucking gorgeous! I love it!.. Back to feed, water, feed, water, etc. schedule now.. I'm hoping that 1000 PPM isnt going to be too high for her.. But if it is, I will adjust accordingly. End of week.. Seems to me like the stretching has stopped.. So I'm going to cut out the FloraGro.. Double up on the FloraBloom and later into flower I will bump up the Kushie Kush Bloom Booster. She's doing great! Smells fucking amazing! I thought my ETHOS Early Lemon Berry R1 was gonna be the best strain ever.. Then I grew this girlie! Not just a lemony scent.. But like a very sweetened lemonade.. Incredible! Trichomes are EVERYWHERE! Such an awesome, beautiful strain! Good job FastBuds.. Can't wait to try more of your strains! Too bad you wont even acknowledge my grow journal like you do everyone elses.. But whatev.. Lol.. On to the next week!!!...
