OG Kush, aka Olga was easy to grow. She was the tallest at 31 inches and had strong stems to support her buds. However, being the tallest, she suffered the most heat stress and was the first to show cal-mag deficiency. Og Kush aka Olga, was my first diary, initially planned to combine all my plants in one until I found out that for contests, you have to have single strain. So I jumped in feet first and ran 3 separate diaries. This was a bit much for me. I am totally inexperienced on growing cannabis, much less track the grow with all the nuances on an unfamiliar platform. I really intended to enter Olga in the Newbie contest, but I woke up one morning and Bam, I was an apprentice. With 3 failed germinations, 3 new diaries and no harvest surely was not deserving at that time. Because I'm running 3 diaries, when growmies visited, they checked out all of them and my likes increased significantly. 3 diaries 15 weeks,=45. easy to see the math. So here I am. First, I want to thank Andrew @LegacyMarketFarms for introducing himself to me my first week here. He invited me to his tutorial videos on Youtube. Every Sunday I watched one or two weeks at a time while I folded the laundry. I watched some over and over, taking notes along the way finding tips for that weeks progress. While I could understand many of the concepts, I never quite achieved them. I struggled with VPD in many forms: from not enough humidity during Veg to too much RH during flower. It's a world turned upside down. I was happy when he was recognized as a Guru 👏. Congrats again Andrew. Secondly, Warm thanks to @Ex_Alchemist and @StarLorr for helping me with platform technology problems. After emails to GD went unanswered, they offered suggestions for me to try and fix. When I kept getting blocked, they listened to me express my frustrations and anxiety this was giving me. They kept encouraging me to hang in there. I was ready to quit but I know I need to be here. My apologies to all that got blocked for 7 hours because you visited my diaries. Thanks for sticking around anyway. And my apologies to those that I did not chat with following a visit or comment because I was blocked. It is a two-way street. A big thanks to @m0use. Your comment on Premium Cultivars, made my light bulb click on for what was causing my continued 7 hour punishments. I had links in my diary comments to other cannabis sites, electroculture, recipe sites. etc. Since I've cleaned up the links, I haven't been blocked😊👏. Thanks to all the growmies that responded to my grow questions. Particularly my medical question as that is why I'm here. You shared with me your personal journeys and health issues and what works for you and what might be good strains for me to start with. I won't name names; you know who you are. My prayers 🙏 and blessings to each of you For all of my questions, I had a difficult time choosing the best answer. Know that I have learned from al of you. I'm here to learn to grow and have fun doing it. I entered some contests but no luck. My curiosity got the better of me and I went looking at the champions DreamIt @Ju_Bps, @gottagrowsometime, @love_2_grow, @ZombieKushAddicted and so many more diaries with contest wins. I saw beautiful plants, perfectly grown, but also fun presentations using technology. There's that word again. My extra special thanks 😘 to @DreamIt who has spent hours tutoring me in video technology. How to make a video, add music and add an avatar. I have a few short videos but while the music i selected was perfect for the theme, the music has copyrights and doesn't upload. I'll keep trying. In closing this diary OG Kush (Olga) and grow cycle with Purple Chill (Penny) and Gorilla Glue (Gigi). My thanks go out to all of you for assisting on those diaries as well. My sincere thanks to all that visited, liked, commented and/ or followed me. Happy growing and have fun.

The plants grow well in the first week I had 100% germination in the seeds, for a first-time sailor I'm happy. I added the humidifier to keep the humidity at 65%. Now in the second week I increased the quantity of fertilizers but always following the supplier's table and the plants seem to be enjoying their food.

Ayer hice el primer transplante a un solo cup de litro. Encontré un gusano, debe ser del humos que le pongo al sustrato que reciclo, lo bueno que ahora puedo decir literalmente suelo vivo. Les puse de top dress harina de neem como preventivo de plagas, insect frass y harina de malta para los microorganisms.

segui regando demaciado y al tener mucha humedad se me genero moho, apesar de eso resistieron.

I’ve kept almost all the fertilizer, light, and environmental parameters the same. I did a good defoliation to improve airflow, since I was having a bit of trouble lowering the humidity. This also helps the light penetrate better through the buds, allowing them to develop more fully.

Day 7 of Veg: They have not stretched that much this week because there was not much sun, colder temperatures at night. Hopefully they invested their energy in rooting. I do expect them to grow alot in the comming week. Might LST them or even HST, not sure yet.

This is the first day of vegetation week 4 (day 28). I’m so glad to see their growth but I think Sugar Cane is growing a little slower than the other two. In these three girls, 91 Octane is the biggest growing and Banana Daddy has so many nodes and new leaves.

6/7 Watered even though I did last night. Its been in the 90s. Transplanted 3 more into 50, 40 and 15 gallon. Gave two away and need to find space for three more. Will spray tonight. Noticed a few aphids. Should feed soon as well. Upload pics and video later today. Planning to transplant the last three and merge diaries. UPDATE: WENT OVER AROUND NOON AND ITS HOT AS HELL. I NEED TO MAKE SURE SOIL WILL MONITOR WHEN I GO SPRAY AND FEED TONIGHT. 6/8 Watered lightly and fed two gallons of feed to the garden leaving out the fresh transplants. Its been four days in the 90s. Today supposably the last. I need to spray lost coast plant therapy to keep up with my IPM. Also need to transplant the 3 remaining. I'll upload the pics tonight. UPDATE: I won't be taking AS many pictures in the future but I wanted to get some on here. The strains of the seedlings that are being transplanted got mixed up. I know the strains but not which is which. Strains are; GMO, Purple Punch, 4 Kings, Wedding Crasher, Dosido, gaslight and Chem Dogg. ALWAYS LABEL THE SEEDLING ITSELF NOT ITS POSITION in the peat moss tray ( or whatever you may use). I know better than that but it started as just an experiment. WENT OVER AROUND 4 AND PLANTS WERE DRY. THEY LOOKED AMAZING BUT SOIL WAS BONE DRY SO I SOAKED 'EM. 6/9 Planned on transplanting the last three plants and it started to downpour. At least I hadn't watered yet. I'll continue to monitor. Went back and plants were drooping so I watered. I transplanted the last three and by the time I was done plants perked right back up. Internet is slow will upload pics later. 6/10 The heat wave has passed. Early this morning soil wasn't dry so I didn't water. I figured they could wait until tonight. I'll see if that was a good decision or not when I go back. I noticed PM on the back of some plants and inside. I did some defoliation but will do more once I go to spray tonight. Internet is still slow so it's hard to upload.UPDATE: Went back over and had to water. Grow bags are drying out quick with this wind. I defoliate a little on the bottom and removed the worst PM. I will be spraying tonight since this heat wave is over. UPDATE: WENT OVER AND SPRAYED EVERYTHING WITH LCPT. I DEFOLIATED INSIDE AND TRIED TO REMOVE WHAT WAS NEEDED TO IMPROVE AIRFLOW. 6/11 Plants don't seem negatively effected by the LCPT. However I noticed some spots of WPM that I must of missed. I pulled those couple leaves and will follow up. The cage is a tight fit and plants are big and bushy. I may look into totally lollipopping one. Much colder today. Plants were watered last night. Didn't need it this morning. 6/12 Temp is in the 70's. Lightly watered before feeding two gallons of solution. Cleaned up around and in the cage. Plants are doing phenomenal. I've continued slight defoliation on some plants due to WPM to increase airflow. 6/13 Didn't water this morning. Soil seems hot (temp wise). I had to leave unexpectedly at 6am for a family emergency. When i got back around 11am almost all my plants were drooping. I soaked everything but the little fresh transplants. I watered them lighter. I will return this afternoon to monitor. UPDATE: Went back over around 7pm. I received a message earlier that my plants had indeed perked right up after getting water. Plants are huge. I'm regretting not having a space bigger space (12x12). Found some more WPM on the interior of some plants as well as a few yellowed dieing leaves on the very inside of the plant. I'll keep an 👁️ out.

This huge b**ch just refuses to mature on the vine! 🤣 The buds have reached peak girth a couple of weeks ago but the trichome prod is continuing and the smell slowing coming around. I’m giving it a couple more weeks max anyway as I need the space for upcoming plants. Pretty wild stuff for a strain said to be ready in 10 weeks!

Look very healthy just small I believe the storms and extreme heat stunned them a bit. Started to preflower getting a hint of the smells.

🌿 Eindverslag – 24K Gold Kush (WeedSeedShop) Kweekduur: 10 weken bloei Type: Indica-dominant (Kosher Kush × Tangie) Kweekmethode: Indoor (grond / LED) Verslagperiode: Week 1 t/m oogst --- 🔸 Algemene indruk De 24K Gold Kush leverde een zeer harsrijke en aromatische oogst op. De soort combineert de krachtige body-stoned effecten van Kosher Kush met het fruitige, opwekkende karakter van Tangie. De planten bleven compact (70–90 cm), met stevige zijtakken die goed gevuld raakten met dichte, glinsterende toppen. --- 🌸 Bloei-overzicht per fase Fase Periode Belangrijkste ontwikkelingen Vroege bloei (week 1–3) Overgangsfase met sterke rek (stretch). Eerste bloeiharen zichtbaar. Licht stikstofrijk schema. Midden bloei (week 4–6) Toppen zetten sterk aan. Intens aroma van citrus en diesel. Sterke harsvorming start in week 5. RH teruggebracht naar 45%. Late bloei (week 7–8) Toppen verdikken, trichomen worden melkachtig. Minder stikstof, extra PK-voeding toegepast (PK 13/14 1 ml/L). Rijpingsfase (week 9–10) ± 15–25 % amber trichomen. Flush gestart met pH-gecorrigeerd water. Geur extreem intens, plant klaar voor oogst. --- 🔬 Trichomen & rijping 80 % melkachtig, 15 % amber, 5 % helder bij oogst. Dit zorgde voor een evenwichtige high: eerst euforisch en creatief (Tangie), daarna ontspannen en zwaar (Kosher Kush). Ideaal voor zowel avondgebruik als creatieve ontspanning overdag in lage dosis. --- 💧 Klimaat & verzorging Parameter Gemiddelde waarde Temperatuur dag 25 °C Temperatuur nacht 19 °C Luchtvochtigheid (bloei) 45 % pH voeding 6.3 Watergift 1,5–2 L per plant, 2–3× per week Voeding Organische voeding + PK 13/14 in late bloei Flush Laatste 10 dagen, enkel water --- ✂️ Oogstresultaat Kenmerk Waarde Oogstdatum Dag 70 van bloei Drooggewicht ± 420 g/m² Topstructuur Compact, glinsterend, amberkleurige trichomen Geur & smaak Citrus, sinaasappel, diesel, kush, licht zoet Effect Ontspannend lichaamseffect, milde euforie, langdurig high THC-gehalte (geschat) 20–24 % CBD-gehalte 1 % --- 🌬️ Drogen & curen Gedroogd bij 20 °C en 50 % RV, gedurende 10 dagen. Daarna gecured in glazen potten, dagelijks luchten eerste 2 weken. Na 4 weken curing: geur nog complexer (fruitig + aards), rook zachter en romiger. --- ✅ Eindbeoordeling Eigenschap Score (1–10) Groei & vitaliteit 9 Opbrengst 8.5 Harsproductie 9.5 Geur & smaak 9 Makkelijkheid kweek 8 Algehele tevredenheid ⭐ 9/10 Conclusie: 24K Gold Kush is een betrouwbare, potente soort voor kwekers die houden van een fruitig kush-profiel met veel hars. Ze vergeeft kleine fouten, reageert goed op training en beloont met zware, glinsterende toppen. Ideaal voor zowel recreatief gebruik als extracten (rosin / hasj).

Been two weeks since last update. Reoccurring back strain has made it challenging keep up with grow and diary. Just the basics. That said, I switched nutrient line from Fox Farm to GHE's trio. So much simpler that FF. Let's see how results are giving transition took place at bucket change. Figure one maybe two more changes before harvest.
