Today was the last day of 18/6 hours light schedule!! I just changed the timer to 12/12 I increased the Bilberry lamp from 60 to 70% Power. During this week I really had to increase the amount of both water and nutrients, Just like the breeder said, she starts to eat a LOT already in the vegetative stage so I fed her a lot and even thought I did I noticed small signs of deficiencies on the lower leaves, Mid week I re potted Her to a 25L container and cut out some of the fan leaves just as the breeder recommended. The reason I follow the recommendations is I have grow Sherbinskis line before and the end effect is so much better. Also starting to keep a big temp difference between night and day. As you can see She is growing very fast.

There are good genetics and there are genetic masterpieces. The Great Jefa is part of the second case. Truly exceptional. It is a plant that has vegetated in a graceful and regular manner, the 16 bud topping seems tailor-made for it, all 16 have been successful, I would say excellent. All this happened in a short time, I don't know if it's the topping but it was practically ready in 6-7 weeks I took it to 8 because it was still very colored with leaves but it was ready for all the rest of the signs. Milky trichomes and lots of amber ones this time I don't think anyone can accuse me of being early. Also because the advance sometimes saves lives from mold. In this regard, I would like to give the advice NOT TO DO TOO MUCH FLUSH, if the plant is already very mature, washing the roots would risk spoiling the tops. So my advice is to flush at the very first red hairs, when the flower starts to take the color away with the flush, you clean it up and finish composing the flower. The flowers are really full of resin, a wonderful foliage gave us shades of colors from dark purple to light green and the tips of all the buds and violet. The trichomes and hashish pulled off the gloves are scary. so much. lots and lots of resin. The family is sweet-sour, I know Money Maker very much like us and is embellished with Attitude's Californian genetic Runtz. Greenhouse feeding gave us satisfaction from start to finish with a clever use of Enancher. The plant is still colored because I added some bloom. A few words must be said for Greenhouse Seeds who, with this declaration work in partnership with the strains, is doing a pretty good job of clarity. Many strains are children of an unknown mother and this exposes them to a thousand defects. Strain motherfuckers aren't tough they're problematic. Congratulations to Greenhouse always masterpieces. My favorite from the new line of GHSC masters but the others are arriving...

Overall happy with the outcome, really aesthetically pleasing plant but I've never been a big fan of cookie based strains and probably wouldn't do it again. It did produce some male flowers late into flowering. It's a nice plant to grow though from the always dependable Sensi.

06.05. Day 57 BlΓΌte 34. ("60-65 Max,") Oh mann. Sieht die gut aus. OK einige alte BlΓ€tter werden ledrig hellgrΓΌn. Das schreibe ich Γ„hh dem Alter zu? Solange sie sich nicht ringeln oder Braun werden lasse ich sie dran. Die Knospen sind wunderschΓΆn und dick. Der Duft original Alpine Delight. πŸ˜‡πŸ˜‡πŸ˜πŸ˜‚πŸ˜… NEIN, DAS HILFT NICHT! I know, allerdings ist der Geruch... Ihre 13.50€ wert. (ein Kompliment) Und das von mir. 08.05 das gesamte Zelt mit Zimt Wasser besprΓΌht. KΓΆnnte gegen Spinnmilben helfen. 09.05. Es hilft... Ein zwei BlΓ€tter entfernt. 10.04. Die Knospen werden immer dicker.

Decent week. I had a branch start drooping massively on UKBS 2 and decided to amputate, the last thing it currently needs is to have one branch being nursed back to health while it tries to recover from the stem wasting that's taken place already. I've not yet resolved myself to it, but I'm fully prepared for the worst case scenario of total plant death and having to take clones. (which I certainly will be doing if total death occurs, this has been an incredibly fast and strong growing pheno) Inside the tent, both of the plants are kicking into flower mode; it's approximately halfway through week 2 of flower as the diary weeks aren't synced with the flowering cycle unfortunately. Carl 1 is a very stretchy plant, almost 12 inches above the net once I flipped to flower. Carl is starting to put a strong stank on, not as much like skunky weed but more of a piney and lemony scent. UKBS 1 is starting to flower as well but is much smaller so has a less noticeable odour. Both of the indoor plants will be receiving a defoliation at F21 ish to clean up any lower bullshit that I don't want developing into larf. updates as the week goes on, the usual.

Nutrients completed on majority of the plants some smaller plants will remain being fed until Wednesday before flushing I rearranged the tents ready for drying purposes with 4 plants that were flushing in the dry room. I came gone to find one had collapsed. This is the heaviest plant (I am interested to see what it yields) Because it snapped at the stork I hung it up to dry and will be dry Tuesday 29th this week The rest will be ready after a successful flush. Earlier in my diary I did a test for which coco was the best. I can assure you that coco eco-thrive produced the tallest and most stacked plants Plain coco was the next which produced a medium yield plant of medium height. Last was coco with pebbles. I wanted this to win but believe me it has the worst growth and the least yields for this particular grow. So I would advise buying the eco thrive coco. It is such a good product if you can get your hands on it. It’s a very strong smelling this grow please note this when you start. But to be honest value for money I will definately grow this again. (Under $2.00 per seed This will probably be the last post before the chop. Stay tuned 05-07-20 30-09-20

week intel: we reached the peak of flowering stage and need to cause a little more e.c stress from this week so e.c stress is twice a week i reduced the amount of Nitrogen and calcium and stopped feeding silicate in other hand i raised the amount of base nutrient and booster short story version: more K & P - less N stresses : a little E.C stress around 1.6 and 1.7 twice a week from this week feeding: i feed them 3 times this week with this order : day 1 : i feed them high with base nutrients(calcium & micros (half dose) + Bloom) about 822 ppm - 1.6 e.c to cause a little stress. day 3 : i feed them low dose of Top-Max + B-52 around 525 ppm - 1 e.c to let them recover a little but not fully recover still a little stress will caused. day 5 : i feed them high dose of Feeding Booster around 850 ppm - 1.7 e.c to cause e.c stress again guide of the week : from this week we can cause more E.C stresses. e.c stress if done correctly is one of the very few ways to increase quality in all aspects ( color , aroma , taste , bud structure , resin contents ) but if you over do it , listen carefully brother : it can reduce quality in every aspect so always look for signs and never reach the red line.

FERMAKOR BARREL MIX – BASE IN USE (Testing on the Fantasy Feast girl we pulled out of another diary https://growdiaries.com/diaries/274722-grow-journal-by-yan402 ) (FERMAKOR BASE SYSTEM KOH VERSION diary https://growdiaries.com/diaries/278391-grow-journal-by-yan402) (Urea & Micros on the way β€” first week running without them) πŸΆπŸ’§πŸΆπŸ’§πŸΆπŸ’§πŸΆπŸ’§πŸΆ πŸ’§ 30 L Barrel – Current Working Mix πŸΆπŸ’§πŸΆπŸ’§πŸΆπŸ’§πŸΆπŸ’§πŸΆ Step 1 – Calcium Nitrate (Part A) 7 L warm water (~35–40 Β°C) β†’ added 45 g Calcinit, stirred until fully clear. That’s the calcium + nitrogen backbone for the feed. Step 2 – FERMAKOR PK Base (Part B) 15 L water in the main barrel β†’ added 30 ml FERMAKOR PK Concentrate, mixed well. This forms the main P + K part of the formula. Step 3 – Combine Solutions Slowly poured the Calcinit mix into the barrel while stirring β€” no reaction, still crystal clear. That confirms the mix is stable and precipitation-free. 🌿 Step 4 – FPJ / FFJ Batch Added 30 ml homemade FPJ (fish + veg batch) β‰ˆ 1 ml/L. Color shifted to a light-amber tone β€” looks alive and active. πŸ‹ Step 5 – Citric Acid Balance Added 1 tsp citric acid after everything was blended to fine-tune pH and help chelate micros later on. πŸ“¦ Step 6 – Top Up & Check Filled to the 30 L mark with plain water β†’ pH tested with drops, showing yellow-green β€” roughly 5.8 – 6.0 range.

Tangie'Matic coming along nicely. Nice size buds, smells really good, and good color overall. She's quite a bit smaller than my first Tangie'Matic. But I have a feeling this girl is going to taste better (fingers crossed).

Except for drying, curing, and smoking, this concludes my Medusa F1 grow. I harvested the plant on day 92. Overall, the plant was a thrill to watch grow. It thrived from day one, and I am more than happy with a wet yield of 336 grams given my setup. The buds are large, dense, laden with trichomes, and they have a great calyx-to-leaf ratio. I discovered a few mites on this plant and its neighbor (a Milky Way F1) in the last 7-10 days. However, the Medusa F1 resisted them so well that they barely multiplied. Or, if they did multiply, they left the Medusa for the Milky Way. The final proof of my efforts will be in the dry yield and quality of smoke. Sometimes I trim wet and sometimes I trim dry. In this case, I'm going to dry trim, so I just cut the plant and hung it upside down from a line in an out-of-the-way room that I can keep dim. There is a little circulation in the room via floor registers. I will return in due time with a dry weight and smoke report. SMOKE REPORT After drying for 6-7 days, I dry-trimmed and jarred up my Medusa F1 harvest. It was a breeze to trim because of its high calyx-to-leaf ratio. To me, that's a big plus. After 11 days in the jar, I had one bud lab-tested for potency, and then decided to proceed with my smoke report out of excitement at seeing the numbers (see below & photos). I added a ton of photos and one video to this smoke report (trimming setup, dried buds in and out of jars, proof-of-smoke video). Regarding taste and aroma, the buds smell mildly of herbs (sandalwood?) and pepper, and the same aromas carry over in the smoke. Regarding potency & effects, the bud I sampled (3 pulls) was quite strong, non-drowsy, and it came on in a quick rush. The rush peaked about 5-10 minutes after smoking, and I would describe the high as "stoney" in the traditional sense, but also "up." For about half an hour, the effects were enough to disrupt my focus -- definitely a strong high. Then, my focus returned and the sensations changed to a milder pleasant buzz, which lasted a couple hours before tapering off. The material smoked left behind nice white ash. POTENCY TESTING RESULTS TAC: 22.5% THC-A: 21.8% CBG-A: .68% Terpenes: Medium (1-2%)

This girl smells really good 😁 but i didn't expected less from this strain, i already tried several strains from fastbuds and they are all great. This week i started to give some extra PK apart from the typical bloom nutrients, i expect this girl to finish all covered in tricomes, we can see already quite some tricomes everywhere and its only the 4th week of flowering, i hope that the weather stays good πŸ˜ŠπŸ‘
