I should have gotten a trellis net, lesson for the next grow… fat colas everywhere with no signs of pest or mold. Tricromes haven’t began to show amber as yet.

Great week of growth, been doing a lot of LST. Spreading her out and tying it down! Roots are really growing. Pinching leaves as they get too big and block light.

Growing a little too tall for my room, but I think the stretch is pretty much done now. I super cropped 3 of the largest colas. Probably spoke too soon last week, PH dropped like a stone down to 4.5 a few days back. They had K and Mg lock out for maybe half a day. Stripped most of the lowest 10 leaves of nutrients. This is why defoliation is not the way to go, keep your leaves. They act as storage for nutrients and give you a buffer if PH lets you down 😁 It’s also pretty difficult to get a decent photo of the whole plants anymore 😕

I think 1,63 g per Watt is a solid result. I am quite happy with the outcome. The Epsilon is in curing. I tried some of the uncured bud and it was good. I am looking forward on the cured bud. I would grow Epsilon again. Such a fast and good (mainly) haze strain. Got 325,8g dry bud out of 4 plants. Also happy with the setup and fertulizer.

This week I transplanted them from the AC Infinity Seed Starter to their 5 gal grow bag or their final pot! I like to make my own super soil out of Root Organics Formula 707, Coco Coir, Perlite, Vermiculite, and amendments. Then I placed a hole in the middle of the 5 gal grow bag, for the plant being transplanted, and placed the young seedling into the hole. Then I lightly covered around the base of the young seedling. Then I watered with 250mL of pH balanced H20! From there that's it just checking on it daily and watering as needed daily with plain pH balanced H20. Then I amended the soil with 4-4-4, 4-6-3, Blood Meal, Bone Meal, Alfalfa Meal, Kelp, and Earthworm Castings. Then I gave nutrients every other day. First General Hydroponics MaxiGrow then plain pH balanced H20 the next day. Then amended the soil as noted above. Then plain pH balanced H20 the next day. Then I would feed The Stash Blend and then plain pH balanced H20. Then the General Hydroponics MaxiGrow and then plain pH balanced H20. Then Real Growers Soil Recharge and finally plain pH balanced H20 to finish the week off. I always pH at 6.0 for nutrient solutions and 6.8 for my plain pH balanced H20. My temps for solutions were 72° and ppm was 800-850 with EC 1600-1700. I always use my oxygenated H20 that is monitored by a professional meter and so are it's levels! I have oxygenated H2O with a pump ready to go at all times! This way I can just scoop up the water and go on demand without having to worry! All and all they're growing well and gaining a ton daily!!

day 32🌱 things are going very well 👊the girls are in shape I made a change of solution👽 and I am very happy👨‍🌾 with what I see. I'm perfectly in the middle of the flowering🌻 period if things go this way I expect a great harvest💚🔝💪 Day 33 I had to open the tent for a check during the hours of darkness (suspicious noise) I took the opportunity to take some photos that without HPS and much better .... 🌻😍💚

First week of flower growth for the older ones, younger ones are still sort of finishing stretch (4 day difference). Plants got much taller than I expected, especially the one which started out extremely weak with very messed up leaves, which is around 2 feet at the moment. I remember weeks 3 and 4 I was butthurt like “why are they so small :,(“ LOL, if only I knew. Now I’m having to actually move my light up! Past few weeks most of the new growth has been growing in with yellow tips, still haven’t figured out why. Don’t think it’s nute burn cause I’m barely pushing 800, could definitely be wrong though I’m too new to this. Otherwise they’re completely healthy, consistently standing right back up immediately after I train them whether it’s LST or even HST. Humidity is beginning to become a problem, which I was not prepared for. The paint in the closet is beginning to crack and bubble off so I will most likely have to go in there scrape it and re prime and paint it myself eventually. Ordered a small dehumidifier on Amazon because I’m on a budget, that was a mistake. It pulls about a quarter pint out per day -_- wasn’t trying to spend 150+ on a new one so I found a 25 pint on Craigslist for 40 bucks, it should work, picking it up later today. Edit: dehumidifier is up and running and works perfectly, rh now at a steady 50. Leaving on a trip for a month in December so I will unfortunately be forced to harvest at 12 weeks, really hoping they will be close to done by then. But yeah, still having fun tending to these awesome organisms!

Wanted to give a shout out to everyone that helped my first growing experience. I believe I have learned so much from all 3 growing experiences especially as a first timer. Good genetics are where the REAL dank comes from. Barneys Farm did not disappoint. These buds grew so smooth I felt like a master grower. I believe this strain could get even bigger results with the right training. I will definitely grow this strain again in 3 gallon pots with lots of HST. With minor training she turned out pretty swell. The Grow: Growing this strain as I mentioned is practically a damn joke. She responded so well to growing in a solo cup(weeks1-3) that I practically gave her a few ml of water out of a dropper every other day and sometimes 3 days without water. As she grew, I gave some minor training, topped them, and tucked some leaves. I believe with the right training and an extended training regiment in the vegetation cycle for this strain, you could kill yields with this frosty/fast flowering strain. Any defencies I had were quickly cleared with cal-mag. She never actually ran into any problems besides some light burn due to the LEDs being too close in super late flowering. As she grew, her leaves looked more vibrant each day. Her buds simply swelled over time and became so frosty that I have no idea what I am in store for.... She got a good scent around week 3 in flowering and every week after that became more dank smelling each day. She smells like nuts, citrus, skunk, and lemon zest. I believe this strain is a hit when it comes to growing. Overall I'd give her a 10/10 out of any strain I've grown for now. She responds well to any training, nutes, and transplants. This is by far a strong resistant strain. She smells good, grows strongly/quickly, and hopefully the smoke is as good as she smells or eventually tastes. The phantom og is an easy growing strain as I've mentioned several times. I want to also try a better nutrient line(fox farm)for increased results. Not downing the ole OG fox but there is a new line of nutes now days. Until next go on these girls🤘🤤😎 The Dry: These buds are 1 to 2 inches thick. Nice and dense. I love the aroma of citrus and hops they give off. We are currently on day 2 of drying and I can tell yah, these buds smell NOTHING like chlorophyll. This strain is super powerful with terpenes. I believe the cure is gonna give a knock out smell, that's how strong it is. As she is drying, I am drying her at 66 degrees which is nice and cool, a small USB fan at the bottom of the tent. The fan was pointed outwards for the first 2 days. Now going to have it blowing more inwards to the wall to give a little less airflow for 1 to 2 more days the rotate back for a finish on the dry. So far the drying is turning out really pleasant and easy. Day 4 of drying and the outside of the buds are starting to crispn up. Another 2 or 3 days and she should be fully dried. We are now dried and jarred. They are crispy on the outside and the smaller stems snap. They will continue drying as we burp the first couple of days. Ended up taking the buds down at 5 days. Ended up being perfect for these dense nugs! The Cure: We are idk how many days into the cure. Probably 3 to 4. My roommate and me are taking a smoke now. She weighed at 2 oz give or take. Not the biggest outcome but total harvest between 5 plants all together that includes GD not included, 7 oz which I cant complain. Learning that bigger yields will come from better training. I did however get the sticky icky/trichome regiment down on this girl. I will post more pictures once I get to 2 weeks into the cure. I will say her buds are so good damn sticky. Excuse my language haha but let's be honest, this shit is dried and being rotated/cured and it's what I'd call the sticky shit you'd wish you'd had. 10/10 on quality bud Barney! 🤘 curing is still going well. Very sticky buds as I mentioned earlier. We are weeks or close enough to say these buds have cured up nicely. They have mainted an easy 61 to 62 rh after the first burp. I really over thought this and now its time to perfect the process! The buds turned into hard dense fluffy nugs.( no commas needed). The Smoke: When you smoke this strain, you feel an earthy taste that initially hits your throat with a hint of diesel on your tongue. Other flavors include berry and nuts which are very prominent in the smoke. The high hits you with a very dry mouth and a slight blur to your eyes. You get a sense of relaxation and happiness with short giggles every now and then. We loaded a huge kied bowl from some of the bowls ard my roommate and I were absolutely blazed. I smoked both phenos and the one phenos that frosted more than she fattened, really knocked me on my ass. 9/10 for a delicious smoke and potent high. The high is perfect for regular smokers especially when you want to change it up. The smells is also amazing in the jar with that nutty, berry, and diesel undertone. As the high hits you with all it's great effects, it hits with a moderate body buzz and strong head high. You'll notice that you cant speak full sentences all the time or you blank out and forget things. Phantom Og is a great evening smoke because once you let the high start climbing down, you start the feel the sandman on your eyes. The highs greatest focal point is the sense of focus. I AM NEO. You may not be able to dodge a bullet but you will kill some time lol. As long as you keep puffing however, you'll always be in a wonderful state of mind. 👽🤞👌 Ups and downs: The ups and down with this grow really derive from my own techniques or any issues or "ups" I had during the grow. Genetically speaking, I had two different phenos of phantom og. The 3 gal fattened much quicker and showed a significant amount of frost while the 1 gal pheno showed double the frost but not as fat of buds. I dont believe this to be a pot size difference obviously. This wasnt a problem but instead I was able to try two different phenos/potency levels based on the new amount of trichomes on the smaller gal. The strain grew extremely well even with higher heat levels and even lower humidity levels during the grow. I never noticed defencies throughout the grow besides the fast amount of water these girls can drink! Make sure you feed these girls nutes in week 3 or 4 or at LEAST start. You'll noticed rapid nitrogen defencies later in growth or any other common decency if you dont start the nute regiment early. I used lst as it shows in the diary. I didnt do much besides topping and pulling some branches but I did learn she responds well to hst. During the veg. Period, I accidentally snapped two branches off each node. Just enough to snap the skin. She recovered quickly without any help(duck tape included) and in return you could see bigger bud growth on the affected branches VS. The branches that were not affected. Phantom Og also produces moderate size buds and can create heavy yields with this training method. This was one of my only downfalls but this grow was for experience. I want to thank everyone for tuning in to my grow. The bud as I said is great for experienced smokers with thc levels of 18% to 24% and a flavor out of this world. After a full report, I will be updating this strain to 9/10. Thanks for looking 💨🤘 UPDATE* 12/9/19 MY FIRST, growing experience won 3rd place in the November 2019 Newbie of the month contest. Thanks everyone that followed and liked 🙏 2020 is going to be a beast🤘 UPDATE* Nebula of @growweedeasy has featured this diary in the 2019 Edition article on growweedeasy.com Thanks everyone for the support☺️

The buds are fat, making the branches lose strength, they have considerable resin. It smells like tropical mango with a stench in the background. It is a long-lasting sativa but I stopped providing magnesium and other nutrients before so as not to affect the flavor after harvesting, it could last a few more weeks, but I believe it will be harvested soon. If it gets weak, I will do some extraction. I stoeppd feeding at all now. For a pot of just 3.7 liters (1 gal), it is very well evolved and grown.

Buds get thicker and thicker :) Added some CalMag from Canna Mono.
