Week 8: This girl is a real monster!!! The purple tint now with the shimmery trichs make her the gem of the tent. My eyes rest on her often. The smells are a very sweet grapey kinda chem or gas smell. So good! It is very strong. Bump her and you stink. Supposed to go 11 weeks, but I guess we'll see :) Her super vigor makes her hungry. I could have fertilized more.

June 15: going good and will do second round of topping tomorrow. Adjusted tie downs. June 16: adjusted tie downs and watered with soluble seaweed extract and a bit of Epsom salts. June 17: topped this morning leaving four bud sites on each side. Leave first and third node growth tips, but remove them at the second node. This will now be 8 colas, but I’ll top once more for 16. June 18: adjusted tie downs and did foliar spray of Extreme Blend in the evening. June 20: released tie down in the morning. Started the second batch of compost tea. Video shows the recipe I started using last year. Leave overnight and use within 24 hours. It should smell fresh, and if it smells ‘off’ or sulphurous it’s gone anaerobic and should be thrown out. Use whatever you want in your compost tea recipe. Key things are blackstrap molasses (sugar and trace metals), some fresh compost, and I use coco coir to provide a substrate or matrix for the bacteria to grow on. Seems to work.

Turned amber shockingly fast. Kinda happened unexpectedly! Swapped to water flushing this week to help my baby burn off the last of her nutrients. Plan to harvest in the next two weeks. Gonna let her guide me. Happy growing.

Thursday this week has been good so far, I pulled each plant out yesterday and tidied everything up. I got rid of all the tiny lateral branches that didn’t make the cut and I got Rid of everything that was below about half way down the plant. Obviously the lateral branches that grew to the same height as the canopy are staying it’s just all the non starter stuff below. I annoyingly had my in take fan die on me. We’ll sort of, it just keeps tripping the fuse on my electric so I assume it’s from when I had my res flood onto the floor - I forgot it was there on the floor because it was hidden behind the res

Pretty happy with the grow and the harvest, the drying went well also! Each grow highlights changes for the next and this has been no different! I'll be making more training adjustments in the next runs to try and refine the vertical scrog and get to the point where it's a wall 1 bud thick! I know it will get there in the end it's just like relearning how to do a horizontal scrog! I just need to predict the way the plant will respond when the light is from the sides! Bravery and brutality during pruning I think is the key! 😂✌️💚

Well that wraps up the seed preservation run! It was a great learning experience as there were several major hurdles to get over the finish line, but nothing worthwhile comes easy. The seeds are available in my Etsy shop as long as I have stock. Thanks for the support from all of you!

looking good the 2nd week into flower, added some more uptake acids and some bloom top dressing along with a banana tea recipe that I have recently created. Seems to be working well. I basically just added banana peels to my microbe tea brew and I no longer use fish shit because it is high in N and that is what we really do not need right now.

Okay so pk boost and as with everything else in this grow, it’s a week behind what it really should be, so I may have hit the tropicanna poison with a PK Boost too late, where as, for the orange hill special and frosted guava it’s probably a little early but hey ho - you gotta compromise with the Autopot system if you are growing multiple strains that are really quite different in terms of gene pool. Edit: okay so it’s 4 days later and it ALMOST looks like a different plant! Its colours are coming out now. As you can see, some of the side branches pistols are turning orange and there is even some colour turning up at the edges of the swollen calyxes. I don’t think I will get too much light penetration to be honest, due to the fact that it’s too crouded in there - it’s so easy to forget how big they get when you first veg them! (Particularly as it’s my first grow in months and first photo grow in years!) Next time I will just make sure I germ the seeds at the same time - although, it wasn’t really my fault, per sé. This is definitely the most advanced plant for sure…then the NYC diesel. Edit: so I noticed that my tall tower fan broke AGAIN and so I decided to buy a clip on I think it’s an 8” one that rotates - it’ll probably stop rotating after a while but the reviews say 18 months in after having bought the product, it still works fine, just doesn’t swivel. Tbh, it’s cheap enough to if it breaks then I can just replace it - it should def last longer than a tower fan that’s been flooded with 10-15l of water! Twice! So I can’t say I’m hugely shocked… For now, iv taken the fan that is a clip on that I was using for the extraction of my drying tent - it’s surprisingly powerful for such a small USB powered fan tbf!

Wow! Impressed by how fast they’re growing and the root mass already. Time to move them into their final pots 🤩 These girls don’t waste time!

📆 Semana 8 La Mental Rainbow entra en el último tramo afinando cada detalle. Los cogollos se compactan todavía más, cubiertos por una capa gruesa de tricomas que le da ese aspecto cristalino tan característico. Los pistilos comienzan a oscurecer y los cálices se hinchan, marcando una maduración clara. El aroma sube de intensidad: dulce, terroso y con un punto profundo que anuncia el cierre perfecto. Has controlado bien la ventilación después de la brotitis puntual, y la planta responde sin frenar el ritmo. Ahora toca dejarla limpia por dentro. 💧 Semana de lavado de raíz: solo agua ajustada de pH para que termine con un sabor puro y una combustión más fina. ¡Seguimos creciendo fuerte 💪!

Fertilization continues on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday with Biobizz family and Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday bat guano and Epsom salt. This week will change the old lamp and replace with Viparspectra 600W. Day 46: I am still waiting for the new lamp. I haven't updated 2 days. They are georgeus flowering nicely. Buds are getting thicker and the purple strains are getting pure Balckberry Kush and LSD-25. Day 47: I palced today the new Viperspectra 600W lamp. I have also changed the light schedule for 18/6.
