Greetings, fellow cultivators! Week 10 marks the zenith of our incredible journey with the Big Cheese Auto, and it's like witnessing a grand finale in a botanical symphony. A heartfelt salute to Seeds Mafia for the genetics that have led us to this captivating moment. Our green queen is gracefully fading into the final chapters of her life, akin to the changing seasons. The Autopot system, our faithful companion, has been the guardian throughout this journey, ensuring a nutrient dance that sculpted the masterpiece before us. It's like the closing act of a green odyssey. As we approach the grand finale, all additional feedings have come to a serene end. Our Big Cheese Auto is now sipping pure water, a gentle transition as she readies herself for the final curtain call. It's like allowing the plant to gracefully bow out, showcasing the culmination of her life's work. The transformation is mesmerizing! The colors are shifting like the changing leaves of autumn, a poetic reflection of the plant's life cycle. It's like witnessing nature's artwork unfold, with hues of green, purple, and amber blending seamlessly. Each leaf tells a story, a testament to the plant's resilience and the seasons it has weathered. The trichomes are now a sparkling crown, each one a testament to the plant's potency. Their production, color, and shape are in perfect harmony, signaling the imminent harvest. It's like a field of glistening diamonds, a visual ode to the journey we've embarked upon. As a prelude to the final act, all feedings have ceased. Our Big Cheese Auto now drinks pure water, allowing her to express her true essence in these concluding moments. It's like letting her compose the last notes of her botanical symphony. A profound thank you to Seeds Mafia for entrusting us with genetics that have flourished into this spectacular finale. Aptus Holland, your nutrients have been the invisible hand shaping this journey. Grow Diaries and the community, your support has been the heartbeat of this horticultural tale. As we stand at the threshold of Week 10, the sense of accomplishment is profound. Our Big Cheese Auto, though reaching the end, leaves behind a legacy in vibrant colors and trichome-laden brilliance. It has been an honor to witness and share this remarkable journey with you all. Let's continue to cultivate greatness together but first lets see how this one ends !

Hello Diary. In the end, I have my own praise for this strain. Although they did not both emerge at the same time, they eventually had a harvest together. The outcome is in the end almost 140 g which is a great average. The dried flowers are hard and compact, reminiscent of velvet to the touch, really beautiful. They dried in a growbox for a total of 14 days along with their roommate Watermelon. My wife, although not a consumer, enjoys trimming which suits me great because I can take photos during that time. After trimming, we put the dry tops in jars where they matured for another 20 days. And now as I write this report, I’m enjoying the smoke of Purple Punch, drinking coffee, and trying to remember if I left something out in the report. If so, feel free to write and ask. I apologize for the delay with the reports, but a lot of photos and videos and other commitments have slowed me down in that. And hope those who visited the diary got useful information, thank you to everyone who supported this trip, thank you for all the compliments and comments. See you soon with new diaries.

Buenos dias a todos. Es la primera vez que cultivo, en este caso es una Sour Compassion CBD. Esta planta fue un esqueje que me regaló un amigo. Cuando me lo dio estaba espigado en un vaso de plástico con 1 mes de vida. La pase a una maceta "Mad Rocket" de 16L. La hice vegetar 2 meses y luego la pase a florar el 8 de Marzo. Tuvo 111 días de vida y 71 días de floración. Con respecto a la fertilización que aparece, hace referencia a toda la vida de la planta. Saludos cannabicos

Fun one to grow even in veg its exciting because the foliage is fuckin Jurassic like it's a beautiful thing. Had some high ph towards the end so I would say theres plenty of room for improvement but all around this was a decent grow and this strain is a classic

Coming along now, I think her early breaching caused a bit of a slow-down, could also be due to the transplant or combination but she's on her way. I don't plan on feeding any nutes until week 4 this time around, FFOF seems to be a hot soil so I want to learn from my 1st grow. Happy growing y'all!

The temperatures, humidity, and watering volume(if measured) in grow conditions are all averaged for the week. The pH is soil pH. Any watering done by me is well water which is 7.6 pH and 50° F. Any listed nutrients are ml/gallon of soil to be top dressed. Day 1 we had high temperature of 89°F. We had scattered thunderstorms and roughly two hours of rain. No watering today Day 2 we had a high temperature of 80°F. The skies were partly cloudy with a healthy breeze. I water 2-2.5 gallons today. Day 3 we had a high temperature of 79 and partly cloudy skies. This cooler weather has been nice. I watered 2-3 gallons each pot once. Day 4 we had high temperature of 92°F. I watered 3-4 gallons from the hose. Day 5 we had a high temperature of 85°F. Skies were cloudy to overcast with off and on rain until noon. Then partly cloudy in the afternoon. I added 50ml of blood meal and 50ml of iron spread evenly across the tops of the pots. Watering done by rain today. The roots have begun to grow out of the soil on top and down through the pots into the ground. Day 6 we had a high temperature of 86°F, a short rain shower, with cloudy to partly cloudy skies. Watering done today by the rain. Day 7 we had high temperature of 81°F skies were cloudy to partly cloudy. We had some intermittent heavy rain so everyone was watered by nature today. This week was a success.bthe plants topped out at 70" of height. They've begun to feed heavy, so I added blood meal and iron. Next week I'll add some plant tone and coop poop. I defolated the #2 plant as it was getting super bushy. I've not shaped these as much as they need so they don't have a great shape. I'll work on getting them spread out next week.

DE: In der siebten Blütewoche drehen beide Last Dance-Phänotypen noch einmal richtig auf – alles wirkt reifer, intensiver und massiver als zuvor. Die Struktur verdichtet sich spürbar, die Knospen schwellen weiter an, werden fester und schimmern immer stärker im Trichom-Überzug. Die Pflanzen wirken, als hätten sie genau jetzt ihren finalen Gang eingelegt. Phänotyp 1 – Der „Black Magic Funker“ Dieser Phäno zeigt jetzt eine derbe Reifephase: Die Farben vertiefen sich in ein dunkles Waldgrün bis purpurne Schatten, die besonders an den Sugar Leaves sichtbar werden. Die Buds wirken schwer und kompakt, jeder einzelne Kelch scheint sich maximal aufgebläht zu haben. Der Harzfilm ist mittlerweile so dick, dass selbst die Blattkanten weiß überzogen wirken. Aromatisch hat der Funk jetzt ein neues Niveau erreicht: Schwere, gassige Noten treffen auf dunkelbeerige Würze. Beim leichten Reiben der Buds steigt dir direkt dieser „Black-Magic-Punch“ in die Nase – schwer, tief, fast schon betäubend. Genau diese Phase entscheidet oft, ob ein Cut später eine *Elite-Vibrationsnote* bekommt – und dieser Phäno hat diese Energie ganz klar. Phänotyp 2 – Der „Zangria Dream“ Der fruchtigere Phäno geht jetzt optisch und aromatisch voll im Zangria-Spektrum auf. Die Buds glänzen mit deutlich sichtbaren Lilatönen, teilweise sogar leicht pinken Akzenten zwischen den Kelchen. Das Gesamtbild wirkt ästhetisch, süß und absolut fotogen. Aroma-Update in Woche 7: Die Süße wird dicker, saftiger, konzentrierter. Was vorher ein frischer Beerenton war, erinnert jetzt eher an eine Mischung aus Trauben-Limonade, Kirschsirup und reifem Tropenfrucht-Funk. Die Intensität steigt deutlich – schon beim Öffnen des Zelts kommt dir eine süß-fruchtige Wolke entgegen. Gesamteindruck Blütewoche 7: Die Pflanzen stehen unter voller Last. Die Buds sind geschwollen, schwer und kleben aneinander wie Harzbomben. Die Farben intensivieren sich, die Trichome werden milchiger und beginnen leicht amberfleckig zu werden – ein Hinweis, dass die Finishing-Phase eingeläutet ist. Beide Phänotypen zeigen jetzt kristallklar ihre Richtung: Phäno 1: tief, funky, gassig, schwer – brutal potent. Phäno 2: süß, fruchtig, saftig – komplex und extrem angenehm. Woche 7 ist die Phase, in der du merkst: Das hier sind keine normalen Seeds – das sind echte Showcase-Phänotypen. EN Week seven marks a full power surge for both Last Dance phenotypes – everything becomes denser, louder, heavier. The buds swell visibly, resin production is immense, and the plants look like they're entering their final, most expressive stretch. Phenotype 1 – The “Black Magic Funker” The colors deepen into dark green with shadowy purples. The nugs are rock-solid, swollen, and completely coated in frost. The aroma intensifies massively: heavy gas, dark berries, deep spicy funk. It’s that unmistakable “Black-Magic punch” that hits you the moment you touch it. Phenotype 2 – The “Zangria Dream This one shows bright lilac tones and pinkish accents between the calyxes. The sweetness thickens and becomes syrupy – grape soda, cherry nectar, tropical candy funk. Opening the tent releases an unmistakably fruity cloud. Overall Week seven brings explosive swelling, richer colors, milky trichomes, and a terpene expression that makes both phenos feel like true elite candidates.

******* Week 7 Flower - October 31 to Nov 6, 2020, Days 43 to 49 ********* This was flush week.......hurry the hell up and flush week!!!!!😃 This strain is an 8 week strain!! She was close to ready at the end of the week, Day 49. Start your flush week 6......I waited for week 7 thinking she would go 9 weeks. Gave them two doses fo Flawless Finish and 10 gallons of water each. Cant do much more than that🤞👍 She is a sticky girl........move any leaves around and you find out just how much😃 These are some nice Freakin looking buds!!!!!! Beautiful colours and so frosty all the way down the fan leaves........so pissed off at myself because I missed her flush timming.....there are some beautiful purples and yellows in this strain that I missed!☹️ Little more detail....... Nov 1/20, Day 44 - Heavy flush day today. - 32L of tap water with 180oom and 5.7pH going into the girls. - runoff numbers for the girls were both pretty close to the same at 185ppm and 6.3pH. - last 3.5L of flush contained Flawless Finish @ 2ml/L. - Decided I do need to use a flushing agent with these girls......they are so close to done now!!!!! Nov 3/20, Day 46 - Another flushing agent watering today. - each girl given roughly 5L mixture of half tap water and half RO water with Flawless Finish at 4ml/L - More than I would normally do but feeling a little desperate at this point!!! - I am almost feeling like C472 is close to pulling now........damn.....I need a couple of more days yet so just going to let more go amber and hopefully she will continue to take the water and flush herself. Nov 6/20, Day 49 - 1L of plain water for each girl. 25ppm and 6.2pH. - we are at the finish line.....just keeping the pot moist right now. - they are ready for darkness anytime now........they are......I am not😂 Looking good Apolo.......Trichomes are lots and smells are plentiful👍 They finishing too damn fast though😀😀 Good problems I guess, wish I cut some clones to run her one more time and stop feed at week 5 flower😞
