Fractal was harvested on Sept 12. Due to extended period of high temperatures and humidity with more rain expected every day following another hurricane. The other gals were showing disease. That was the determining factor to chop all outside girls down. Fractal hung in the dark for 2 days. Because her grow family experienced bud rot and wilt, she was examined carefully for any disease. She was disease free. Fractal had a long vegetative phase. Probably too long since I started my outside grow in April so they would be hardened off before I went on vacay in May. Three months of veg caused massive vegetative growth. The various breeder notes on photo period seeds indicate late September or October harvest. So that was in the back of my mind during this grow. 👉 Note for next year start seeds later in spring. 👉 Plan start date based on counting back from the vernal equinox. 👉 Based on such a long growing season, Autos may be preferable to finish quickly and not have extended vegetation phase before flower. Thank you @DivineSeeds for the opportunity to grow your exotic strains and participate in your contest. I will definitely grow fractal again.

This strain must be exclusive to this parts of the world let alone this country, besides my mentor or people we know separately only a handful of us are aware of this strain’s existence. It has been a couple of years, matter of fact the last time I heard or smoked this strain was during the lockdown days of COVIVI, I should kiss myself on the forehead for collecting this strain’s seeds. I would be lying if I gave you a run down of what to expect… I don’t even remember it’s scent nor how the bud looks like. Though I am loving how the seedling is loving the grow medium, but to better legitimise my growing skills in future I must just get seeds from reputable breeders, knowing myself, I will be a bee when it comes to selecting strains, I’ll probably get myself these reddish strains from sweet seeds or purple strains from sensi seeds. Looking forward to tackling hurdles of growing this strain.

It’s day 27 from seed for all the plants in the photo sea of green. Let’s call it the battle of the strains summer 2025. All of the plants are starting to have visible differences. I’m already starting to tell witch plants are more sensitive than others.

Week 9 is here and we are looking at harvesting! After checking the trichomes of just the top colas, I decided this week I was going to harvest. I am updating this post after I have dried and harvested the plant so do not have much more details. I flushed the plant this week with Flora Kleen along with terpinator and microbes. I cut down the plants and hung them up in the tent to dry using a clothes hanger with clips I got off of Amazon. It took 10 days to dry the bud and my temps and humidity would fluctuate throughout the day and night. I stayed in the mid to low 70s for temperature and humidity was at 50% at first. Then I added a humidifier and had it dry in 60% humidity. Will update the rest in the harvest update.

Introduced Bloombastic to feed

Pretty easy grow so far. Yes I water a lot but I'm also in my garden a lot so it keeps me busy. Purple stems only panic I had. I switched to ro water

27 Dec - 2 Jan 27 Dec Started flushing due to nutrient burn at 26 Dec 22:00 - Finished Flushing on 28 Dec 06:00 2ml/l Flawless Finish 1ml/l Sensizym 400PPM 28 Dec Lowered feed due to nutrient burn. Aiming at 900ppm 29 Dec I don't see any new damage, but I'm keeping an eye on them. 31 Dec I saw a few leaves with probable calcium def, so I added 0.8ml/l of Sensi bloom part A 0.8ml/l of Sensi bloom Part B

8/9/2018 - All of these girls are doing great and have all shown their white pistils now! The branching on them has taken off and they responded to being topped really well. I’ve switched them from my 4x4 grow tent into a 4x8. I have to say it is significantly better having the extra space to be able to water, move around and for better air circulation with multiple fans. I also believe this will greatly help with light penetration inventory they bush out. I’ve been having issues keeping the daytime air temperature down due to the extream heat wave we have been experiencing. I think I have tackled this issue by running the lights at night now while the temperatures are cooler. Tomorrow is the official switch to flower and will be on a 13 hours off, 11 hours on light cycle for the next 2 days. Then on a normal 12/12 light cycle. IVE read that this can help the plants switch quicker. I’m looking forward to seeing the growth over the next few weeks!

7 archive seeds are legit super dense tricomb production like nothing I've seen b4. I would NEVER BUY SEEDS FROM ARCHIVESEEDBANK.COM.... they have great genetics but there customer service is garbage. This summer I spent 50 on these 3 seeds and 125 on a 12 pack of reg seeds of a diff strain the reg seeds didn't grow at all and archive never responded they sold me old ass seeds and stole my 125$ I'm happy I already got 32 seeds from the crappy plant of the 3 that I already cut down. I'm letting the last 2 finish up completely

Lookin good!

Эта неделя пик цветения, растение пьёт очень много воды, несмотря на то что ppm 1700 выходит с дренажа, горшок полностью сухой через 24 часа. Поливаю каждый день во время рассвета ( у растения ), так же повышаю немного влажность из-за летней жары.

Another good week. Watered them twice. I'm not planning on feeding them again. A little defoliation. I definitely think they are in the last 2 weeks before harvest. Still seeing some nutrient burn developing on the leaves. I don't think I watered enough through the whole grow! I'd love to hear opinions on this! Took some videos of the buds with an iPhone 12 at 6X magnification. Decent quality! Otherwise, still looking to successfully harvest these plants! Thinking about the next grow. Probably going to be Auto Strawberry Cheesecake and Auto Anesthesia. Peace!

The trichome formation is going fast now. The plants are becoming more and more forsty. Lets see where its ends :D

Easy harvest few leaves

Lil younging coming good towards the end of the week jus decided to send dem to flower...get a lil smoke and allow the mother to continue do their thing until cut day...other than that everything is going accordingly also got back 1 of the plants that I had sent on a breeder project she's full of pollen sack now(female chromosome only) should have some feminized seeds once all goes well...gonna double up the breed and also do a

DAY 49 Ive runned into some problems with different deficiencies but im trying to correct it.. otherwise the buds are becoming bigger and alot more crystals are beginning to come.. i think most of them have atleast 4 weeks before harvest, but maybe i will take some down before that.. Its really crowded, but im hoping to get a week with big buds now, cause they are not that big all of them. Day52 Switched LED lights to a more red spectrum and switched from dualspectrum on the HPS to Superbloom hps instead for the last weeks.. I started flushing two of them so i can give more room to the others Peace out and remember to see the video :D

Day 53 I dont know how i skipped a whole week? But it happens Plants are looking a little rough, i flushed 2-3 times with just greatwhite and water. Its weird because they got yellow so fast but the tips still look clawed im some spots so im scared to go back to full feed. Slowly added 1ml bioheaven and alga mic then 2ml/l bioheaven and alga mic. Tryingnto get back up to normal feeding
