The week went again pretty uneventful, other than me not getting the tip burn under control. I have further reduced base nutrients, removed the green sensation (simply because I ran out ;)) and increased pk 13/14 further. The buds continue to develop new pistils and continue to swell. The trichomes look mostly milky at this stage, I will however wait until I have around 20%-25% amber. I have cut a bud from the lower canopy (pictures attached), which is quite solid to touch and had a wet weight of roughly 1,2 gr and is currently drying. Overall the bud structure on this plant looks amazing the buds a re super dense, nicely clustered around the stems and she looks like she'll be a joy to trim.

Day 30 of flower; She's growing very tall and she has forced me to move my light as high as I can. She has also forced me to raise the other 3 plants in the tent. She's starting to build some very long colas.

Room setup rundown, examples of bud, et al in pictures... Some minor tweaks since these pictures were taken Seedlings/Clones lights - Viparspectra XS1500 x1 Vege lights - DIY 630umol/s PAR x3 Flower Lights - 650w 3400K 1900umol/s PAR x2 Substrate - 50/50 sphagnum peat moss and vermiculite in 5-gallon pots Climate Control - Luckily, the lights, winter and normal furnace use all equate to a decent temperature. A humidifier is needed early and later a dehumidifier is needed The last 4-5 weeks of flower phase. Irrigation - I use 6 pressure compensating emitters per 5-gallon pot.. Basic process - 16/8 vege and 12/12 ligth schedule - Updated 2026 Sow up to 2x as many seeds as needed. These sit in a 1020 tray under the xs1500 until potting up to 1-gallons. After potting up, a couple 226-watt DIY lights are turned on to cover entire 4x4 area. Everything is hand-watered up to this point. Weak plants are removed as needed to get down to 8 plants that will go into final pots. This takes just over 3 weeks. Once in the 5-gallon pots (slightly under-filled), they move to the 4x8 platform under two 650w lights running at 60% and a slightly closer hanging distance than normal for a minimum of 10 days before flip to flower - usually ~14. Some light training with scrog to get the canopy level and allow 10-12 future vertical branches per plant to space out a bit. Cuttings for any feminized breeding cycles are taken after 30-35 days. Some light pruning of lower growth occurs. Flip to flower is generally 35-38 days after sprouting, but the second grow cycle can sometimes be delayed by the first. After flip to flower, lights set to 100% with normal hanging distance, and fertilizer concentration is reduced. Now, the vertically growing 10-12 branches per plant are spaced out the last few inches with minimal training. The scrog provides the anchor. If necesary, some minimal pruning is employed to avoid future congestion. Some pruning is inevitable, but the goal is not to waste time and resources on growth that is not producing fruit. Average and better plants will be 180-250+ grams. Weak plants will fall short of that. Even culling the weak early on in vege will result in 1-2 weak plants per crop, on average. Drying / Curing - Into mesh racks for 10-14 days. I wet trim and cut down to similarly sized buds for even drying. Temps are controlled around 65F and RH is controlled at 57-60%. Then, into some 5-gallon buckets with gamma seal lids and (3) 2-way 67g boveda humidipaks (58% or 62%) in each bucket. These are burped until moisutre levels are confidently at equilibrium. Once i figure out what I prefer to smoke, large portions of both harvests will be vacuum sealed - still kept in the sealed, rh-controlled 5-gallon buckets. Only cut open a couple at a time to keep everything fresh throughout the year. Cost - 0.33 cents (USD) per gram produced. This includes an accelerated depreciation expense for all equipment used, fertilizer, water, electricity for all equipment used, new filters and other yearly purchases - bti, ph strips, sticky traps, etc. I'm a finance guy, so these numbers are comprehensively accurate and purposely err slightly on high side of cost. The only facet not included is the cost of my labor. Tip: Reconstituting 2-way humidipaks -- tray, humidity dome and a heat mat are used. Set some wet paper towel on bottom of tray. change these out daily. I use upside down seedling pots so that the humidipaks don't directly touch the wet towels. Set heat mat to 80F or causes condensation to form on dome, and the 67-gram packs can gain abut 0.20 to 0.25 grams per hour. Weigh them as you go until they get back to 67 grams and remove from dome for use or storage. Anything that has precipitated (hardness inside), will mostly go back into solution over a few days, but some small portion may not. Shaking or otherwise moving the pebbles around in the solution will help speed that process up. If those solids inside build up over time, that's when you'll need to replace them. A few pebbles inside of a 67g pack won't matter much. The key is providing a closed 100% RH environment without directly wetting the packs. Rate of absorption is fairly slow, and will vary by pack size. You may not get 100% of it back into solution, but as long as those solids don't build up much, they'll work fine. This process also reduces any bud smell that may be clinging to them... assuming they dried out significantly and not just topping them off with a few grams of moisture. Don't try to max out their weight unless you are certain you only need 1-way RH control. Othwerwise, you don't want them fully saturated. So, do weight and keep track of their progress.

This is going to be a scattered Summer, as I have had enough with plants being stolen from my property 2 years running. So I am sharing Pheno's this summer with Friends and Family, throughout this local area... My seed-gathering hit a spectacular spell this winter, and there are simply not enough years left to grow all of the Treasures I have acquired. And there are some juicy specimens. For the purposes of maximizing a single diary, I am going to check in with and keep a loose running diary on these 8 selected Phenotypes. They are all going to be following a set routine, unlike any previous grows. Pre-loading the soil in the outdoors location will be the Norm, it’s something I have never done. Using specific Soil Amendments and Mulch applications will be new ground for me, as these are all proven and successful steps to take, in producing Nutrient rich Soil and a fully developed plant at harvest. People: I love talking with people here on G.D., such as those right here and many more; DeFharo, LegacyMarketFarm, Roberts, DissNoof, HighRoller909, Ferenc etc. (I know I should have your name right here too lol ) Thanks everybody for the words & assistance in the past and I'm sure you will all hear me Squealing when/if the shit hits the fan. I feel this is already on its way to be a wonderful experience this summer. Mostly this will be grown in the boonies, virgin ground on the edge of a certain Farmers Field, with the Farmers consent. And the path he has cleared for us... Just put the 30+ seeds in water a couple days ago, all the seeds in Dirt within 48 hours of each other. We'll see which ones make it and which ones get replaced... awaiting sprouts to Pop through, I wanted to get this set-up and have it waiting. Sending out Best Wishes to all the Brothers n Sisters getting ready for a Big Summer. - Mar 25th a.m., 21 of 40 have sprouted... by Noon there were 24/40 and the obvious ones with Open leaves... had their first Foliar mist at lights out. Kelp Meal is next to be added to the Foliar. Will wait for a bit more development & participants Mar 26th, Lots of activity overnite as Now, 35 of 40 seeds have broken through Mar 27th - Foliar Mist @ lites-out (a.m.) Foliar pH = 5.9 - transplanting healthy plants into 1 gal pots starting tonight as they are ready - Soil in the 1 gallon Pots will be the existing mix with the agitated addition of Azomite, Kelp Meal, “2 oz of old dried-up weed” and some diluted RapidStart - a week ago today, 33 seeds were put in water. Another 7 were added the next day… its a nice way to wrap up germination-week up. Still a few seeds in that crazy survival mode… alls good though - finishing Germination week tonight by moving this gang into 1 gal pots. - pre-soaked next soil ahead of Transplanting; 1 gal h2o pH 6.3 ~ 36 - 40gal soil - DynoMyco introduced to Bulk Soil and mixed well. Each seedling will have it sprinkled on its roots and into it’s destination pot (1st time using it)

Wow does she smell like exotic island fruit! She exudes ripe mango with dank earthy undertones. I feel like Im on a luxury island resort. Just straight paradise. I could stick my nose in her jar for days. I would rank this close to fastbuds blackberry kush in irresistible smell but she is still untouchable. She smokes just like she smells in the vape. Strong exotic juicy fruit with flowery undertones. The smoke doesnt even smell like weed out of a bong/bowl. I walked back into my room after a smoke sesh and it smelled of silky flowery perfume still hazed in the air. The bowl/bong really exemplify her flowery taste qualities too. Strong energetic high but at the same time I wouldnt mind lying down and hugging a pillow in pure comfort. Thankfully I bought 3 of these seeds.

After 12 weeks of flowering and an incredible fragrance, I cut off the larger top blooms. The smaller ones that were covered will be given another 1-2 weeks to ripen. Incredibly beautiful colors, pink-purple-green colored flowers The larger fan leaves were quickly cut off. The scissors were covered in purple resin. The wet flowers were carefully sorted into the drying net. Now they can be dried in the dark at 19°C and a humidity of 50-55%

June 19, day 91, the grow has gotten close to harvest time, so I am begining to reduce the nutrient EC for this upcoming week. I will then give the plant 24-48 hours of darkness, along with very low EC water before harvest. I continue to take leaves off as needed for canopy exposure, but I think the buds have pretty much reached the size they are going to get. While the density of the canopy has limited lower development, there are about 50-100 top bud sites which will each be a minimum of a couple grams dried (and some much more), so I am pretty excited to see the final wet a d dry harvest weights. The buds themselves are hard and resinous, glittering nicely when not under the strong LEDs. The smell is sweet, fruity, and floral, mild but pleasant. I have noticed more clear trichomes than I would be used to for the stage in the grow (although plenty of cloudy and amber as well). I have a suspect this might be due to genetics, and contributes to the euphoric high this strain in known for. June 21, day 93, worked to expose more underdeveloped bud during this final ripening period. It's coming along! June 23, day 95, the Euforia is ripening. A lower bud became light bleached when they were suddenly exposed to light, and I am interested to see what happens to it after harvest. Overall the buds are a lovely light purple/pink and are hard with trichomes.

This is week 5. My schedule didn’t let me go back and adjust. You’ll see day 33-39 and a new clone (which in hind sight ended up being a male and waste of time)

Day 49 The plants are progressing well into the flowering stage. Bud development is becoming more noticeable, with small clusters starting to form and fill out. The leaves are a healthy green, though some are slightly curling down, possibly due to a bit of overwatering or humidity fluctuations. Overall, the plants look strong and vigorous. Light distance and airflow are being monitored closely to keep conditions stable. Over the next days, the focus will be on maintaining consistent watering, adjusting nutrients for mid-flower needs, and supporting steady bud growth

Día 15. Las plantas ya alcanzaron un altura muy buena. Ya empiezan a aparecer los primeros pelos blancos. Por el momento me ha sorprendido la reacción de las plantas al bud blood. Si puedo voy a comprar bud candy para ayudar un poco a la mezcla. Por el momento decidí mantener el bud blood a media dosis durante una semana más con el big bud. Veremos que tal resulta. Día 17. El estirón siguió y las plantas alcanzaron 51 cm. Las pequeñas directamente quedaron tapadas. En este experimento se puede ver la diferencia entre tierra e hidroponia. La verdad que estoy sorprendido. Creo que los productos usados son los que han marcado la diferencia. Las plantas quintuplicaron la altura total que tenían al momento de pasarlas a floración. Y sospecho que van a seguir estirándose una semana más. Espero no tener problemas de altura porque no lo planeaba. Creo que voy a cortar algunas ramas bajas más, dado que se están generando muchas sombras nuevas. Seguiré actualizando. Día 19. El estiramiento continua, pero levemente. Ya alcanzaron 55cm. Estuve cortando algunas ramas y hasta supongo que podría cortar más. Pero a esta altura ya todo lo que hay recibe buena luz. La diferencia entre la madre que está en tierra y los esquejes en hidroponia, es cada vez más notoria. Si bien ya la he visto, tener una planta al lado de la otra bajo la misma luz, hace la parte alevosa de todo esto. De todos modos, he comprobado que el sabor obtenido en tierra, es más fiel al de la hidroponia. En hidroponia en principio, las plantas son mas fuertes en todo, pero el sabor de alguna forma, es demasiado afectado por los nutrientes. Incluso habiendo lavado dos o tres semanas, la planta sostiene un sabor constante en todas las variedades, que parece estar atado a la nutrición. Siendo que en tierra, cada variedad tiene su sabor distintivo, siendo una distinta de otra. La próxima actualización será en la nueva semana, ya que al quedar poca solución, la voy a cambiar antes y voy a poner 12 litros en lugar de los 10 que vengo usando. Las plantas vienen comiendo mucho.

Buds looking alright. Leaves have seen better days & I feel like she's dying on me... Swapped the light because my friend who 'claims he's an expert' told me too. Flushed 20th will go for a 2-week flush even with this flawless finish. (if they make it that long) My tap water is 360ppm & runoff is 415 after flush (30+L of PH'd water) I am definitely going to do a 48-hour dark period before harvest with no watering. Anything I'm doing wrong let me know!
