Oct 12: super warm still so the season is still going. In previous years we’ve had a -10 C sort of hard frost by now. Anyway, Bruce here is taking advantage of the warm weather. Sunlight is weak so not producing as many trichomes as she could under stronger light, but she is still putting on weight and the buds are decently firm. Most fan leaves turned purple at which point they’re no good for photosynthesis so I figured it’s better to remove them here in the home stretch. Might harvest in a few days, or might not… Oct 13: first round of 940 g wet buds, mostly as fresh frozen, with 80 g of that hanging. Buds are less dense than the Gorilla Cookies so despite Bruce being the bigger plant, it looks like the final yields will be similar. Left biggest cola on plant to see how much further it can ripen. Oct 14: watered with 26 C water with some potassium sulphate. My TDS meter has been broken all season so was estimating. Oct 15: nice weather continues. Oct 16: +4.2 C temperature anomaly over last 30 days, and this is “extremely hot”. Yay. Oct 18: sun is so low now that I lose direct sun by late afternoon. Weather turns soon and there are just four more days to go. Bruce will be harvested this weekend.

Not much going on this week. She's growing quite slowly for some reason. Not sure what I'm doing wrong.. 😕

They are 43.5 and 50 cm tall. One headed is the bigger one now but two headed seems more mature. Both doing good and with white buds, they look almost the same so far. I run out of Bloom Complex Soil so i'm giving them a new nutrient, Powder feeding by Green House Seed Co. Sativa version. I hope they grow and develop fast because is summer time and i wanna go somewhere else xD Added a video of each plant, i hope you enjoy 😺

Week 12 kicking off and she is getting chunky still, will be another couple weeks before she is done. Definitely the higher yielding one of the two. Coming up on the end of the 12th week and she is producing new bud sites still. I had to cut off a 6 inch side branch that grew in and started preflowering but was a small branch and would not have time to finish. Not sure what brought on the flower bursts, but she is chunky! And she smells like fruity pebbles so that is awesome!

Finally My Gelato Bin Laden’s has started to flower. I haven’t defoliated this week and might need to clean up some leaves to open up the bud sites, i’ll do it later this week. The plant on the left has a lighter green colour to it, bot sure why, I’m not too concerned about her, she get’s the same feed and attention as the girl on the right. Let’s see how they start to change in the coming weeks.

Had no issues at all with this girl.. she's growing lovely. I have removed the bigger fan leaves so the lower flower heads can catch up. I wanted yo top her but at this stage I'm not chancing it.. She's actually at 3 and a half weeks. This week maybe early next week she's due to flip into flower. So only good things to come.

The seeds have germinated after around 59 hours to be exact very strongly I started to germinate the seeds on January 12th however it was 00:00 Am so it's almost like saying January 13th, the 2 out of 2 seeds have germinated very well without any problem! Quick germination, let's go for it! Stay tuned, this is a strain I love for her absolutely amazing terp profile!! Don't miss it👨‍🌾💚🔝♥️💛

The final piece to my perpetual harvest strategy... Blue Dream'Matic by FastBuds. She is growing in organically composted 'super soil', I have not added any additional nutrients. From the pic of the overall garden my strategy is to have the 2 youngest plants in the middle directly below the CFL. The 2 plants in late-veg or early-flower on the right. And the 2 plants in late-flower on the left (under the light with more reds). The CFL will also act as some side lighting for the 4 older plants. So far everything is going to plan. 👍 Setup: 24x48x72 grow tent 1 Viparspectra V300 300w LED fixture 1 Viparspectra R300 300w LED fixture 1 CFL 100w (26w actual) 4” exhaust fan w/carbon filter 190cfm 6” clip on fan Electric oil filled radiator behind air intake

Ahí siguen las piñas en su camino..🍍🛣️ Ya la tercera semana y veo que van creciendo muy lento, entiendo que es por la falta de vatios, porque la condiciones están siendo buena y comida les he dado muy poca. A ver cómo transcurren en esta semana, porque ya tengo ganas de pasarla a florecer 😅

Well I will be running this girl again very soon as she has produced some of the sweetest smelling buds I have grown so far . The colour purple is found around the buds and the tricohmes have a very good stickiness to them which makes for some great quality medicine . The team at the actual company seed stockers were very easy to deal with and they answered all my questions . I'm honestly going to run her outdoors this spring in southern Ontario she will be big girl outdoors for sure ... If you want a strain that's resistant to stress and humidity then this is your girl no dought . Cheers canna family and best of luck with your growing future

Trying to limit the stretch. Not worried about height as much as width. I might remove plant clips once stretch slows. Full AN run. Adding big bud (removing ignitor). Running candy and tasty next week. Bud factor X week 3

This plant was the first of the 4 to come up, it also basically exploded out of the shell in the germination process. While she was still in water I could already see green leaves lol. She’s really plugging along. This is a cross made by a friend of mine and is the first time it’s being grown.

Another good week generally speaking. The girls are drinking a lot but nothing crazy. Things are wrapping up here in this tent shortly.

"difficult week of change, mess more know when something says not to give up and you persist, if it is a dream something real go deep confident. I set up the tent, even though the space was small, I didn’t give up until the end, with these, I don’t know if from now on I will continue this beautiful work, things became difficult. More in the meantime 😁 let's go for another week. They are doing well, the best of what I imagined is a great genetics that has been dealing as a veteran, great strong smell, wide and thin leaves already creating the famous, THC terpenes, a robust plant. I hope it is pleasing the community and whoever visits I always thank you for your time, thank you for visiting even for a moment.

New leaves still discolored but growing apparently correctly. Possible reasons: - genetics (?) - heavy fertilized soil - Batmix from Plagron was used (?)
