Pleasure to grow. Low maintenance in super soil setup in 5 gal cloth pot. Stayed small and compact but frosted up early and heavily. No deficiencies, steady growth, no training needed. Even minimal LST (which I did not do), would surely increase yield but I was more focused on quality and letting it do its thing. Genetically, it was determined to grow a perfect little canopy while not taking up much space, about as low maintenance as you can get on a plant imo. Running autos is still a limited thing for me, I like the idea of having keeper clones of photos as this is all for personal medical use, but this plant was fun to grow, true to form and stable as heck. I have a few seeds left and Iโ€™ll definitely save them for an outdoor run down the line

On day 1 the plants are looking good. I confirmed that my one cola was seeded, so I removed all visible seed pods. After this run I will do a deep cleaning to make sure there is no pollen in my grow box. The rest of my plant colas seem fine... I changed out my reservoir and adjusted the PH to 6.1. I also dimmed my light to 75% to mimic spring conditions. On day 2 I adjusted the PH of the reservoir down to 6.1. The plants are looking great besides a few fox tails from too much light. On day 3 the PH in the reservoir is 6.2. On day 4 I diluted my reservoir with plain water to lower the ppm down to 400 ppm, and I adjusted PH to 6.2 . The buds are ripening for sure and smell great! I haven't gotten any autumn colors yet even though I have dimmed my grow light and lowered my night time temps. I hope by 8 weeks the plants will have some more purple tones but if not I'm good with the flower quality thus far :). The breeder says 7-8 weeks so I'm hoping I am close to the finish line. I will continue to monitor the trichomes for ripeness. On day 5 I adjusted the reservoirs PH to 6.0. I harvested my seeded cola on Pheno #1 as it had stopped growing/ripening and would be a good tester ;) On day 6 the reservoirs PH is 6.2. On day 7 the PH is 6.0 50 % pistils have turned amber so I believe I have entered my harvest window and expect to flush and harvest soon:) very excited!

So far I kinda messed up getting everything done on time. Plants are harvested and in cure now. All in all, the plant wouldโ€™ve had around 112g dry if I kept it all.

Ladies are looking and smelling amazing, truly zenzational! You can notice the different phenos that came out. One is pure zkittlez while the other three in bud structure are sweet zenzation (zkittlez x grape ape) in those three two of them smell like grape juice. Hope that turns out like some fine red wine taste when cured. Dropped the amount of water a bit and also nutrients. From next week onward only water.

I took all the leaves off and started the drying process. I only LSTed for the first 30 days. Once a week I took leaf off. The plant made so many leaves so removing them was the best way to get light to my cola stacking were all the bud come from. See you after it dry's Footage before i chopped her down. https://youtu.be/MtVcWSeCFEk

Another week down, progressing, just starting to show some orange'ing up on the hairs. Stressed it a little with a bit of a crack in the main stem w/ some LST that wasn't so L but it seems to be superficial enough.

Hi people ๐Ÿค— A lot has happened this week ๐Ÿ˜„ The 3 Blue Cheese and 2 Kosher Tangie Kush which have been in the flowering tent for 1 week have become very bushy ๐Ÿ‘ Unfortunately I just noticed that I completely forgot to take pictures of the Blue Cheese Phenotype # 3 ๐Ÿคฆโ€โ™‚๏ธ๐Ÿป The picture will be given later. The rest of the Vegi tent is also progressing very well. They are repotted in 11 liter pots this week, and then come to the flowering chamber die the following week The next week there will be new pictures, until then I wish everyone a nice start into the new week ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿป๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿป Let it grow ๐Ÿ€๐ŸŒฑ

Defoliated a few leaves but nothing major . The smell is starting to get strong funky and like orange juice (very different smelling from other orange smelling strains ive grown , trichomes are forming and the plant is sticky to touch ! One plant has very few stigmas a trait I've only seen one before after crossing kalimist x super lemon haze . Anyone know why it happens ? I can't find much online regarding it . Anyway I'm into week 5 now see you at the end of it

AMS Supreme is doing really good with the Athena Nutrition, under the Mars Hydro FC4800 light. She is stacking nicely , and starting to develop a aroma. She is due for a solution change very soon. She has been drinking a lot, she should be a nice harvest if she stays on current path. Nothing else to report at this time. Thank you Athena, Mars Hydro, and Amsterdam marijuana seeds. ๐Ÿคœ๐Ÿค›๐ŸŒฑ๐ŸŒฑ๐ŸŒฑ Thank you grow diaries community for the ๐Ÿ‘‡likes๐Ÿ‘‡, follows, comments, and subscriptions on my YouTube channel๐Ÿ‘‡. โ„๏ธ๐ŸŒฑ๐Ÿป Happy Growing ๐ŸŒฑ๐ŸŒฑ๐ŸŒฑ https://youtube.com/channel/UCAhN7yRzWLpcaRHhMIQ7X4g

little bit of defoliation upped the ppms to around 500 ppm just fluvic acid and AB GT Coco. Coming along ok definitely a big difference in the strains. I think the GSC will be pretty tall after stretch limiting options on light power. Currently running the light at 50% and 1000ppm co2 Access to tent pretty tight and difficult to get to the GSC have been topping 2nd round and more LST stretching out a bit but the space will crowd up in stretch. Next time Iโ€™ll do 4 instead of 6 all same strain.

So the end of 3 and entering week 4 these girls are a little sad today as been working on finishing their little grow space which hopefully they'll settle into over the next few days. I have tried too upload images but no luck keeps saying resizing no matter where I upload from ๐Ÿ™„ The girls are taking off and I can see the difference in growth allthough they've been unsettled past few days ๐ŸŒฑ Still loving the aptus range and so am I its keeping these girls healthy even the topped girl hasnt really reacted too being topped ๐ŸŒฑ๐Ÿ‘Œ I will be doing some hst/lst with the other 2 this week as neglected them slightly as having the fastbuds testers all potted up into new shoes. I will try update more images tomorow... Stay blessed ๐Ÿ’š

Sooo the testers are all looking lovely and healthy sad thing is I cant get them that saturated with nutes but other then that they are doing good. The switch to bloom was easy because of Advanced Bud Blood!

These mystery beans were a gift from a friend who knows I grow a little bit. He claimed they are either blue cheese or NY Diesel, however I take this info very lightly ๐Ÿ˜… ******************************************* Day0-1: I threw them all in a shotglass, to my surprise the all seemed to be popping. So I took them out for a better view and put them in a container with wet paper towels. They all seemed, some better than others tho. I've planted them all out together in a big rectangle pot, I will put this one under the blurple light in the small closet to see which ones actually grow up, I will probably make a selection then and plant some of them out. ***************************************** Day3: 7 or 8 of the 20 keemed seeds allready developed into little plant, they just dropped the their shells completely and are starting to open up. I will make a selection of 3 to 5 lucky ladies to continue in a bigger personal pot, the rest will be eliminates or given away.

8/23 - End of Week 3. Going to start some top feeding at like half strength for the Fox Farm Soil schedule in next few days. Drinking well and consistently from the self-watering bases. Bugs seem to be under control but will probably add some bits to the bases to make sure the gnats don't resurface. Stalk is strong and looking good and a good amount of new growth after taking some fan leaves off yesterday to "top". CO2 levels looking a little better, opened another vent in the tent. 8/22 - Adjusted light down to 80% after getting a lux meter and checking the intensity. Soil PH is slighly acidic at 6.1. Got some phUp and phDown but haven't adjusted yet. Trimmed top 4 fan leaves to stall out the top stalk and open up the bottom branches a bit. Added a mushroom exhale bag to increase co2 levels, were sitting around 500 ppm before I added. 8/21 - Still drying out the self-watering base a bit, will add water today. Sides of fabric pot still a bit wet to the touch but I think that's just the active wicking going on. Thought the initial canoe'ing leaves were from overwatering when overfilling the self-watering base but now I think it has more to do w/ some shock from the thrips and 24 hour light, or perhaps a bit of sunburn from being sprayed w/ the neem oil / bug killer. 8/16 - Had to fight off some thrips and still dialing in the tent conditions. Might be a little overwatered currently.
