We are near harwest, two weeks left including this one, I think. I've downloaded new music video and photo made from the hole im my grow tent, bacause of strong odour.

Cloning procedure: Immediately place into water upon cutting. Remove bottom nodes at base of stem, scratch stem gently with scissors + cut small slit on end of stem. Dip stem into water, then dip into rooting powder, then firmly plant into moist soil. Cover with Ziploc bag (humidity dome). Solo cups have 4 holes in the bottom (Melted gently with a lighter) (same soil as shown in diary for germination) The soil was pre-moistened before the seeds were planted. (lightly watered, then top half of solo cup was stirred, to promote absorption (very dry soil))

Alles läuft super buds fangen langsam an anzuschwellen hab eine 2 Lampe mit reingebracht um mehr lichteinwirkung in der Blüte zu haben. Die einzige Frage die bleibt sollte ich langsam anfangen zu entlauben. Bin mir bei autoflower unsicher.

F50 Day 50 of flowering Humboldt Sour Diesel SD2 smells like vaseline/engine grease and tire burning with an oil/kerosine spill. The smell will get in your nose whether you like it or not and the smell has a thickness to it. SD3 smells like sweet oranges but mostly engine grease. A warm aroma,very pleasant. The buds are firm.

Explosive growth this week! Must of doubled in size. Some kind of hungry insects, caterpillars maybe? Minor leaf damage, nothing major. Going to keep up with Neam/Aloe/Kelp spray. No rain in the foreseeable future, 26c every day, early summer for sure. Doesnt appear to need any extra nutrients, will add some more Gaia Green next week. I've had Lupins here for the past few years, which are Legumes and have great nitrogen fixing qualities, not to mention this entire patch of land had 20 years of old decaying blackberry bramble which were cleared 3 years ago when we bought the place, and the soil is some of the richest I've ever seen. No shortage of Nitrogen in there. I'll be honest, this plant is twice the size this time of year then the last 2 years I've been growing outdoors. I'm a little concerned I'll need my ladder come Oct! I did FIM once earlier in the week, will FIM ever 2-3 weeks till July to try and keep the height under control.

Just chopped last night. About 8oz wet weight. Did a good amount of wet trimming, will do a final manicure once it is dried. This grow has been an absolute blast - the girls were good to me and didn't give me much trouble. I am a man of variety, so I always try new things - so not sure if i will grow it again but if I had to, I wouldn't be mad at all :) Smoked some scissor hash it is sure was tasty! and strong - got me feeling reallllllly nice. Will update in a week or so when it is dried to report on the dry weight. And then some time after that I will report on the smoke once it cures :) UPDATE POST HAND DRY: The plants hung for 6 days, and have now moved into the jars. Dry weight of exactly 2oz. 51g buds, 5g trim. I had no idea that cannabis loses its smell a bit as it dries - so i got super worried at first, only to realize this is normal and the beautiful smell returned shortly. Will continue to update after curing for a taste/effect review. UPDATE ~ 1.5 Weeks into cure: Looking back it think I did too much dry trimming. It had been cold at that time, and I was paranoid about mold. It dried quite quickly, and I might have been out a day too long. I was aiming to get them in jars and have it sit at about 60-65% humidity - but when they went into the jars it never went higher than 54% and kind of settled down at 48%. But the buds aren't crispy by any means, so maybe my humidity meter was off. They do seem a little too dry though - and the buds are definitely quite airy. My grow light is pretty small, so I'm not expecting super dense buds. From what I've read, I'm worried they might have over-dried past the point of "curing"? Or maybe I'm reading too much into this, idk. This is all a learning process and I'm enjoying it regardless. It was my first grow so I definitely have room for improvement within my current setup. I couldn't wait to try it so I've been sampling throughout the curing process. The flavor and scent profiles are definitely changing, and for the better - but it doesn't have that same "dank" smell it had when she was a living plant. Not sure if that's normal, but probably just didn't have the best drying process. Obviously this early, I'm not expecting amazing taste and smell, so let's see how some more time does. I will say it gets me stoned, for sure haha. It's got a nice dark green, purple color too it with a decent amount of thichomes visible. Honestly, the smaller plant (#1) that I stunted early on has a better scent/taste already, versus #2 that looked so good. Not saying #2 is a bust at all either. It has this earthy, almost cheesy flavor profile. Interesting. Back to the effect - it worked to the point where I feel laser-focused writing this update haha. It definitely has a hybrid effect, with a nice euphoric uplift, while helping me relax and ease tension. I'll try to keep updating this as it cures!

dry weight of buds after trimming = 93 gram and about 5 gram of Trim so 98g Total. Actual plan was to leave the plant some more days but after seeing some Nanas developing inside the buds i decided to cut it at day 65 of flower. great smell and cant wait to smoke the final product. All in all definetly a good strain for living soil.

Start of the grow in a DWC cross Bubbleponics system. Using two clones with the plan to scrog them out and have 5 to 8 strong colas per plant.

Week ten. I started giving booster one week ago, so her flowers are getting better every day. What do you guys think? How does she look? Shall I do more defoliation? But my tent is pretty small too. Consider that while responding, please.

Yoyoyoyoyo party people! It's been week 2 of Flower, the stretch hit HARD! Starting at about 30-ish cm to 43 (with a lot of LST tho) developed an almost nice and even canopy already. Scrog net is always nice, and i highly recommend everyone trying it at least once! So far i only gave Plagron basic nutes and she looks great. I Like the product, contains a lot of product for the price, pH isn't drifting all over. With my light, i need to supply extra calmag, as you can see on the purple branches. I'm ashamed to admit, i've only done 2.5 reservoir changes in 12 weeks šŸ’€ Please do it better. At least every 2 weeks! (or watch week 10šŸ’€šŸ’€) Already starting to smell something "sus". im excited every day looking into the tent. I hope i can even out the canopy as much as possible and then full on Blast with 40 DLI as much as possible. I adjusted both fans, so i have one below the canopy and one above, hopefully this will improve the wet spots that occur sometimes caused by the high humidity, caused by the high temps) Stats for nerds: DLI 30 inceased to 34 over this week VPD 0,7-0,85 (it was really warm, so i went with a lot of humidity, temps up to 34Celsius and rH 85 kekw Feel loved, take care of yourself, peace !

Bud wet weight : 168,1g of trimmed medium to big sized buds 25,4g of tiny tiny buds/larfs = 193.5 grams of trimmed wet buds. Details on genetics and smoke report above. This, as my first grow, is way more than I ever expected it to be. I haven“t had that much fun and enthusiasm in a very very long time. I can“t even explain the feeling it is to harvest your own cannabis, but I know most of you know what I“m talking about haha. It was really nice to practice LST, even tho it was SO HARD, “cause I didn“t had barely any space to work since I used a hard pot and did not fill nearly half the size of it and the walls of the pot were really high. It was even difficult to water without dropping water on the lower buds. I haven“t learnt much about defoliation tho, I feel I need to study a little more about the phases you should or should not do it. Also, I discovered thrips are a pain in the ass. I had 2 tough weeks dealing with thrips, but in the end it was alright. I don“t have any humidity control device, which I intend to buy for the next grows. Growdiaries was really helpful for me, it kept me motivated everyday (not that I wouldn“t have had it anyways), the Grow Questions are REALLY useful and all the community is awesome. Thanks to all people that helped me here on GD during this first grow! To conclude it: I am really happy and satisfied with how the grow turned out. They look incredible, it almost feels like I can“t believe it still. Peace. UPDATES: 07/10 : The buds are now dry and already in curing jars, one of them with a Boveda 58% humidity pack. The total grams of the dry buds are: 41.4g (medium to big sized buds) 4.1g (tiny buds) = 45.5 grams! I“m really happy with the results, I thought it would be around 30g so yeah, that“s a really good surprise! In 2 weeks I“ll be back to update the smoke report. Thanks so much for reading! Peace. 09/10 : I managed to fit everything in the same container with some space between them, so now every bud is with the Boveda pack. 14/10: It“s been a week and the smell improved, it still smells a little like hay/plant ( even tho it“s not too dry neither too wet ). 21/10: Now it“s been two weeks and even tho the smell isn“t anymore hay, it“s a lot herbal. I really think the aroma can get better, but the taste is already good enough for me. The smoke report has been done and in case I have something to add, I“ll report here. Thank you so much for reading! Peace.

Preflowers everywhere šŸ˜Ž She went through a serious defoliation without any issue. She drinks a lot. Hopefully the stretch should be almost done, available height is limited and I don't want to dim the QuantumBoard, it is now at full strength, 320W so 110W per board. This OG looks promising!
