Just starting to flower 😃 This week I foliar sprayed ChitoSal and Rubicon Marinis to help transition to flower. I also added nets to the rest of the plants since we've had crazy storms lately but they hole their own quite well. Roughly 30 gallons of soil inside cages wrapped in plastic about a foot and a half high amended with 3 cups Gaia 4-4-4 and 2 cups Gaia 2-8-4 and 2 cups Gaia Feather Meal 13-0-0. Topped up each month with a cup of each as well as worm casting/soluble kelp/molasses compost tea once a week. Also Fish Shit amendment added at recommended doses. Orange Kush Cake, Cherry Gar-See-Ya, Mac 'n Jack, Crescendo Rbx1 are all Ethos genetics at 25-35% THC Blue Afghan is from Jordan Of The Islands. Recieved clones in the mail in early May. Happy Growing 😌

This wonderful plant is amazing man, I have fallen in love with this strain and the hard rocks nuggets she has produced, beutiful orange pistils, it's just pure fire. Very dense and compact nuggets guys, she's been 100% organic grown, she has been watered with pure water and beneficial bacteria all the way and also with guano liquid by guanokalong, the aromas are very complex is very gassy stinks like a skunk however it's got some piney in and kush aroma,definitely awesome man need to keep growing this strain many more times no doubt.

-4/16/23 Start of week --Week 4 -4/16/23 (Day 29) --Observations: roots around the outside of soil, branches growing quickly --Changes: transplanted from one gallon pot into a three gallon pot, increased light cycle duration to 18 hours, distance from light slightly changed --Comments: forgot to take photo after transplant -4/18/23 (Day 31) --Observations: still not having problems with nutrient spray multiple times every day. --Comments: first photos in new pot, will start training tomorrow near the end of the light cycle (less than 6h light left). will be trying an experimental grow training where the plant is forced to create multiple vertical branches coming off the main stem that will be forced to grow horizontally. should end with more symmetrical and uniform colas. -4/19/23 (Day 32) --Observations: branches are big enough to start training --Changes: started LST today. removed one spade leaf and the branch node it had, also removed one shade leaf from the second set. --Comments: today is the day to start training, had to remove some parts so that they would not be toughing the soil. should recover and start having branches grow vertically. was thinking about trying the FIMing technique, looks like it may be the perfect time for it. will decide tomorrow after it tries to correct itself, if all goes well it shouldn't be able to pull the tie downs up. -4/20/23 (Day 33) --Observations: slightly pulling up tie downs, branches correcting direction and growing vertically. --Changes: removed another shade leaf that was covering several branch nodes, pushed tie downs back into soil. --Comments: may need to find a better way to tie down or find a new way because it seems like they keep pulling up and not holding where I want them to. -4/21/23 (Day 34) --Changes: removed shade leave on both second level branches, tried FIMing the top. also changed placement of tie downs. --Comments: doing good with training, removed some shade leaves to open up space for other growth. tried to do the FIMing technique but I'm not sure if it was done right, if not them I may just top this plant. -4/22/23 (Day 35) --Observations: still trying to pull out tie downs, branches growing quickly --Changes: started watering with nutrients --Comments: continues to fight the tie downs but is still taking to training. giving nutrients in the watering now and not just spraying with them, may start adding molasses to future waterings. still not sure if I did FIMing properly but if it isn't right then I will be topping this plant. -4/22/23 End of Week

Here we are for the Week 8 Update for my biggest grow to date. The ladies are really starting to show trichomes like crazy along with their buds sites swelling seems like every day. Several of the ladies I had to defoliate again because they just became so bushy and I'm trying to make sure even the lower half of the plant is getting enough light. I've also noticed that all the ladies seem to be on the same track except for AK-49 #4 which just didn't grow much due to lack of light at the beginning of its life cycle and Girl Scout Cookies #2, which is almost done! Since I'm in the home stretch I check them every day to see if they need water because they've been super thirsty since they have been in flower. Well, that's gonna wrap it up for this week fellow growers, Happy Growing and remember to "Free Your Mind, One Puff At A Time "😉

WEEK 7 (Day42 - 48) The training has proven effective for all plants. I continuously defoliate them at the beginning of flowering. This strain has a very compact growth form, almost resembling a bonsai. Nevertheless, all the shoots are covered with dense flower pistils. I think this strain is ideal for small grow spaces. The current growth suggests a really strong, compressed flowering pattern, and I believe these plants will deliver solid performance in the coming weeks. As for the values, I have increased the VPD to 1.2 kPa and raised the light intensity to 650 PPFD.

Hello. this is the end of week 4 and the beginning of week 5 of flowering. The resin production has started to kick in and the smell is getting stronger. Sort of a sour candy, funky cat pee with some cedar undertones thrown in. Should make for a interesting taste experience. Everything is going good. The plants are eating well and growing great. The middle plant #3 is looking a little yellow and I'm trying to learn my new lights so I don't want to move it but I want to see how it will make out. If it gets a bit burnt then I'll shuffle the plants around more in the next grow. I do little things like this to see how things work, and learn from my mistakes. I saw a article in the paper about stoned driving in Canada. Zoom in to read. Being a garbage man earlier in my life I found some good things. This joke form is hanging in the downstairs bedroom and it's from WW2. The army/navy guys sure wanted to meet the right girl. And what better way than a form. Good Luck. And have fun. Chuck.

Hi to everyone. DAY 74 -- Happy to say I haven't had any major issues so far this year. Made a video to show the progress and the difference in how the plants look. Some are getting stretched/pulled; while others aren't. All are getting partial shade throughout the day to avoid the heat stress. Am considering full sun now that they are bigger. Count: 50/50 male/female; 6 of each basically from the 12 seedlings.

Transplanted everything a few days after the last diary into 5 gallon air pots. Started a cover crop and added some mulch after everything sprouted. Began training week 4. I’m intending on keeping 4 max inside the tent. Will be Peanut butter breath, Dragons Blood Hashplant, Afghani, and Velvet Krush. Other 4 x2 pbb 1xDBHP and one unknown bag seed will be going outdoors soon.

Heatwave is here:( Equipment is struggling. Hard to watch over grow room constantly. Surge protector tripping out as the equipment never cools down or has a break. A/C and dehumidifier running 24 hrs. Plus I had to hook up another a/c unit for the family. Got to keep them cool at night too. I’d feel bad if my ladies were cooler then my girls 😜 Got new lights but they were to intense even at the recommended distance. Just had to much light and to much overlapping made it to intense. I took out the 2 smaller 600’s and now just have the 2-2000’s in there but with the heatwave I had to dim them to 50% and now 25% incase I don’t get home in time from work and not able to open tent all the way as equipment is not doing the job in this heat:( also if the circuit trips out again then I don’t want the temps to sky rocket. Last few times it trip temps and humidity increased to 86F and 65% RH, mind you I corrected it within the hour of it happening each time, so not to bad and that’s at the top of the canopy and lower into it didn’t quite get that high as on the floor it only raised to 82F. And for my troubles I see what I believe is the start of burnt leaves:( I should have known better as the top growth seemed to be a bit lighter and stretchy:( I’ll have these lights better dialled in for next time! Grow on!

Hi all Well here we are at their stated 11 weeks flowering and I can see how ripe and ready they are looking . They all have a fairly nice trichrome build up now and I had hoped they would pistil flush again but it doesn't look likely now so i am thinking is harvest time any day now. I am now just giving them water to signal theor end coming . I am hoping the plants respond with a panic burst of thc to protect her buds. Not as substantial as I had hoped but as mentioned in previous entries , it has been a simple, lazy grow. Until the next one. Be Happy

Lampe bei ca. 75% DLI~40 Der Abstand der Buds gefällt mir mega👍🏽 Würde jetzt schon die Sorte weiter empfehlen. Die Sorte selber geht aber spät in die Blüte könnte aber auch an topfgröße etc. Liegen. Vom Stretch merkt man was aufjedenfall. Sonst machen sich leichte cal mag Probleme sichtbar konnte aber bis jetzt gut gegen steuern. In dieser Woche aber kein Training mehr jetzt soll sie sich voll und ganz auf die Blüten. Ende der Woche nochmal Bio Blom gegeben

Finally in full flower mode. Ready to start putting on some serious size. I turned the lights up to 80% a couple days ago and they both are taking it well. No light burn yet that I notice. I'm not sure if I should start bringing the lights closer at 80% or keep the distance but instead Increase power to 90%. Going to feel it out as we go. Happy so far for sure. Update: increased light to 100% . No lead burns or weird looking leaves yet.. Just bulking up and very thirsty! Doing a nutrient/nutrient/water feeding schedule now.
