These had a pretty good life. I actually only fed NPK the one time . Germinated them in a Zambeza propagator, i really recommend getting one of those propagators, they're reusable and really take the heat off those first days when you're sweating. Pooped them into their plugs they sprouted out strong, germinated 5 kept 3. transplanted them no problem. Veged these for 4 weeks, then they shot up. during veg they stretched out a bit early on i should have been giving some specialised micro i had on had but for some reason on the other i didnt. They needed extra support for their first three weeks, so i decided to LST them around week 2. Two camping hooks one anchor for the main stem and one to keep the plant down. Once i dialed in my lamp to plant distance they benefitted by slowing down on the stretch a bit. they all took to LST extremely well, bushing out and creating an nice even canopy. They pushedout these thick indica leaves, one of my plants was a lighter colored leaf pheno, the vertafort one. The Six Shooter genetic really stretches, if just off the top of my head it seems that the plants quadrupled in size over an 8 week period, completely eclipsing their neighbours and creating a thick dense canopy throwing shade down below. Each turned into a bush with three or more mains sticking out the top by week 6. IThe results start to look real pro around week 8. Before that though I hadn't been defoliating. This and simple lack of light means that I had loads of undevellopped colas. If I'm honest I should have tried to harvest in stages but by colas. Anyway these kind of grew like a gorilla glue but with much different and much better flower structure. The plants started pushing out flowers and pistils and preflowers etc early, but then took a while to gear up towards towards getting fat. The flower branch out in a spiral pattern up and down the main and secondary colas evenly, creating this misssile shaped colas, but they branch out once sometimes twice, which means less branch to nug ratio than a gorrilla glue by a full multiple. They started smelling like lemons around the time they were fattening up. Then they started getting buff, really little by little, what did rippen rippened evenly. Some colas was basically waste especially the colas stuck on the sides of the tent and some of the colas where for some reason or another there was no light there due to the dense canopy. Truly a BEAST OF A PLANT, HIGH POTENTIAL, great BRANCHING, if you look carefully each plant has more than a dozen colas, Timed it so the harvest was on a day the plants were chock full for plain water after ten day's worth of additive aided flushing. hung to dry slowly in the tent, got it around 55RH inside the buds over 12 days then trimmed and jarred in miron glass with boveda 62. The trim was a great experience, took a while but not that long because the flowers were so nice in the way they are. you do have to trim every sugar leaf one by one though if you're doing it by hand, broke these sizzors that @Mrs_Larimar sent me because of the resin lol. so I pull these plants out my tent and I just kinda look at them and they're basically dark green because of all the sugar leafs, i'm thinking to myself "shit i messed up this isnt even that frosty". well, what i found out is every time i clipped one of those trademark long sugar leafs off it revealed absolutely resious white frost. That's what can keep someone motivated. ! Once jared, if there's boveda in your jar, you dont really need to burp it daily, or even weekly i just let it sit there, obviously i've been smoking it and following the cure, let me tell you this one needs longer to cure than you're used to maybe, at least two more weeks of cure after a slow dry. Four weeks after the chop , it's a strong weed ! Didn't smell all that loud, but I have a 1300M3/H exhaust so... i'm not surprised. I will say though that my neihbour said she could smell weed even when I wasnt home and she could smell weed in the corridor, from the times I was trimming and basically every time I open my jar. Gonna need a new carbon filter for the next grow. I retired my lightbulb too. Hard to put my finger on the taste because the smoke is so smooth, and when i saw GD had a tag for Woody, i knew right away this was that taste i felt. I will say this though, cure this correctly, dont rush, dry it real slow, then cure it, citrussy tastes, usually those will evaporate, leaving this distinguished terpene heavy hitter much better tasting. So what can i tell you, this weed is white weed, so frosty. Bag appeal is great too, this strain pushes out pistills like no other, maybe even more than the gorilla glue. that means this is a chill weed right? One of the phenos I grew had more pistils than the other two. Mr. B's did, but i dont know if you can really tell from the close ups, i'll try to put some more pictures up. I got two maybe three phenotypes in terms of taste. Mr. B’s is much pine-ier than the others, and when the joint goes out and you light it again, it’s even more piney … I’m actually really happy about that reminds me of white rhino from the east coast back in the day but way piney-ier than that even. When you smoke the other phenos the smell is incense and the taste is really really smooth & woody. Sometimes I find different after tastes on the exhale like coffee, pepper, and maybe sweet/fruity sometimes too depends on the pheno I'm toking on. It is LOUD THOUGH, always have a spare filter on hand IT’S NOT WORTH IT get it ! Well at the end of my first grow, i'd like to quickly review all of Bulbi's own : Bulbi"s Own Early VegMicro: Fine green powder with calcium and all the rare metals in it. I didnt use it ! Damn, next time I'll amend my soil with it like i did this time on the FBT1 Bulbi's Own Cal Mag : Organic fine white powder with calcium and magnesium, i used it in the feed and sometimes as a spray. I didnt know how much to put in because these things dont come with instructions so i ended up putting 1/4 doses most of time. The correct amount should have been 2.5G/L. Bulbi's Own Flower Micro : Organic fine beige powder that I used mixed in with the sulfur. I think this one's a keeper, really helped my plants make it through the stress of bottom feeding and all that heat. Bulbi's Own Mag Sulfur : Organic fine red powder that I used mixed in with the Flower Micro I used this one in my spray too , to great effect, in my opinion Bulbi's Own Beneficials Trio : This was the base beneficials mix I had, you need to put 7.5 to 15g/l , watch out for clumps, use at the night fall, or when still dark. Bulbi's Own Anti Afid : I threw it in there i think just in time to protect my plants when I intentionally overwatered when I went on my trip. There were some white flies that emerged, because... well that's what they do isnt it. but there were just a few of them and they ended up flying around wierdly, and within four days, no more white flies, didnt even use yellow sticky tape ! You mix this one with the trio for even more effect. I used these in a spray I think , also. Bulbi's own Anti-Worm : This one is more directed against larvae, and can be combined with the base trio. I was weary of using it, but I'm glad i did to give my soil matrix that full spectrum of biological protection. Bulbi's own Humic Acid : This one i loved, looking back I'm regretful not having used it more. the dry humic acid is a great experience, the quality of it was impressive, clumps would seperated into more clumps ad infitum the feed slowly turning completely ink black. definituely using this once a week from now on Bulbi's own Amino Acids : this one is just amino acids, maybe next time I'll use it at the same time as the humic acid, but I'm not 100% on that. What i did do was spray the top layer of the soil with amino acids when I accidently ran into some issues from spraying kelp all over the place. So in that sense it's an absolute life saver and a must to have on hand. Bulbi's Own Kelp Extract Concentrate. Loved this one too haha, so thick, and green, check out the video of when i pour it lol. Worked great, raises the pH some so be careful, i used this one as a sprat aswell to get those plant growth hormones pumping during the seeding and veg stage. Bulbi's Own CO2 : well part of what I set out to do was to test the CO2 theory. Like roots do absorb CO2 but at a lower efficiency than leaves say 15% vs. 85% the theory being enriching your water or feed with CO2 would ultimately benefit the plant. So i enriched water with these ceramic based co2 tablets, because CO2 is a soluble gas, it stays in water. Then i fed the plants in this manner in the feed and also as a spray. The idea behind that was that co2 enriched water would come in direct contact with the plant allowing for absorption of some quantity of CO2 through the leafs. Someone explained to me that these are actually old school techniques. Well I know i started late and didnt follow a regular schedule like i wished for but the plants didn t die, or show any immediate negative upon innoculation, so what can I say? I'm doing this again, perhaps. Only problem is that these things are really a pain to pH correctly General Hydroponics Dry pH Down : GREAT PRODUCT, hard to find but amazing – not registed on GD for some reason I still have to make my bubble hash so any advice welcome ! 🚀

End of Week 5 Brewed a nice veg-specific compost tea and the ladies loved it. Trying to make sure the soil stays nice and moist to keep the microbes happy and letting the top 3 cm of the topsoil dry before each watering. The ladies have gained some momentum and they're growing at a rapid pace . I also performed some HST by tucking fan leaves and softly pinching and bending some of the stems to open up the canopy whilst keeping the stress at a minimal. Pest Report: Didn't have much issues up until now... I noticed about 5-10 tiny little thrips on some of the leaves and I applied an organic microbial insecticide (Agro Organics Bio-Insek, Google it!) that seems to have taken care of the problem. Now I will apply it weekly to make sure those buggers are ELIMINATED.

Vegetation Week 13: Heatwave Growth & Bokashi Boost Update: 12.06.2025 | Day 97 Hey Growmies, Week 13 rides the heatwave momentum with explosive progress. The battle scars from pest wars are fading, and the ladies reward us with textbook vigor. Growth Report: - Stems hardened into woody trunks, new shoots erupt daily. - Canopy density doubled – Durban’s sativa stretch is accelerating, now clearly overtaking Blueberry’s bushier frame. - Subtle aromas intensify when stems are rubbed. I can smell where this is going... and I love it! Pest Status: - Aphids: Down to occasional stragglers. Jet-spray maintenance continues. - Ants: Fully absent after duct-tape stem barriers. Victory holds! Care Tactics: - Bokashi Boost: Fed 1:100 dilution today. Plants thrive on this – expecting deeper greens within 48h. - Water Discipline: Deep irrigation at dawn during 32°C days, but only every 2-3 days. Encouraging roots to seek water and expand. Environmental Notes: - Weather: Consistent highs near 30°C, lows at 16°C (perfect recovery temps). - Soil: Mulch layer doing its job – soil beneath stays moist and fluffy. Next Steps: - Scout for spider mites (heat invites new threats) and aphid resurgence. - Monitor ant activity – they’re the aphid "farmers." Otherwise: Observe and let nature work. Minimal intervention! Week 13 Takeaway: Resilience rewarded. From pest chaos to photosynthetic fury – these Dutch Passion genetics are hitting their stride. Bokashi juice = liquid gold. As always, thanks for checking in and commenting. I appreciate you guys – grower love to all! – Smoking_Joe_Frazier

Temperatures ran very high during week 2, I had to invest in a closed loop ac system so I wouldn't lose any Co2 through ventilation. The plant itself is showing signs of heat stress but is beginning to get its legs. The stem is extremely week at the soil line, I'm hoping some strong air movement will fix that problem in no time.

my dry and cure style is this: 4 days of hanging upside down to get water activity lower to around 0.6 in 50% humidity and 26 C temp (i know its a little high but we are in a hot summer right now and i cant get it lower even with air conditioner) and then after 4 days of drying i remove leaves and stalks, trim buds and move them to jar for the rest of their life :D . and in the first 4 days of curing i open the jar door and let hem get some fresh air in the jar for about 5 minutes and close the jar door again, after 4 days of curing like that buds are smokable but they will get better as they getting cured about 1 month. buds are one of the hardest as fucking rocks type of buds! very dense , compact , sticky , smelly , amazing at every aspect growing stage was 56 days and flowering stage was 75 days total (harvested tops at day 64th) the total weight of dry buds was : (plant #1 & #3 top buds 56 G + lower buds 22 G ) 78 G + (plant #2 top buds 47 G + lower buds 18 G ) 55 G + (plant #4 top buds 120 G + lower buds 67 G ) 187 G = 367 G

Yeah it’s not anything like I had planned, but like I said last week, there is always next year. I’m just giving her molasses here and there. I don’t know the pH or ppm of the feed water. It’s just molasses and my 8 pH well water. Then back to just plain water if I’m not feeding. There are obviously a lot of soil amendments that I’m leaning on. I suppose the picture of her trunk isn’t that impressive because it lacks a reference of scale. But those are some big roots on the top there.

Week 4 Bloom 31/08 - Mass defoliation day, #1 was suffering from the amount of leafs it had, #2 was not as bad, has filled its own structure out nicely and outgrown #1. Flushed and changed water. Upped the liquid potash. Added a tiny bit of CMX due to #2 showing a slight magnesium deficiency. Switched from PSI to cyco silica due to running out of PSI. Humidity and temperatures have been near perfect, 28-38% RH and 20-25 degrees celsius, extra exhaust ventilation helped a lot.

D78/F34 - 17/06/23 - I changed light schedule hoping she's going better. (6 only red ligh and 7 red-white) D79/F35 - 18/06/23 - New lights schedule is running D80/F36 - 19/06/23 - Added water and integrators EC 1.0 and pH 6.4 D81/F37 - 20/06/23 - Nothing to report D82/F38 - 21/06/23 - Added water and nutes EC 1.0 and pH 5.7 D83/F39 - 22/06/23 - Temp is too high for both water and environment. I see signals of suffering on the flowers (foxtailing) D84/F40 - 23/06/23 - I'm trying to keep the Tremp under control but isn't easy. To lowering water temp (that now is about 26 °C) I'm adding some ice to the water

Another Defoliation at the end of stretch this week for the Northern and she's now in full bud mode at end of Week 8. 3-4 left I think before the chop and she's just a happy monster. Buds forming nicely on't Chemdawg despite a bit of Nutrient Burn on some of the leaves. Skipped a feed last week and replaced with Molasses only just to help her fight off the excess 2nd Chemdawg looks like she will bud from head to toe a fairly straight forward week for all the girls but started to stink and show their flowers nicely. Head over to www.autobeastmethods.com to find out how you can learn to Maximise your Autoflower. Head to the Forum and say Dr AutoDevil sent you.

Всем привет. Я назвал этот дневник "Old tree" и это не просто так, этому кусту 13 месяцев! Также интересный факт это растение уже дало урожай после чего я решил оставить 30% от растения, обрезать ему корни и пересадить в горшок поменьше после чего отправил его на вегетацию 18/6 и оно начало вегетировать. Также с этого растения мне получилось взять много хороших клонов, но теперь старушке пора на пенсию ее работа выполнена! Надеюсь это будет интересно.

My Purple Kush is still the little guy of the group. It's so small, I don't think it's even started flowering yet, but that's alright! It'll have plenty of time to mature and do its thing. I'm guessing it'll probably be ready for harvest a couple of weeks after the others. I'm excited to see how this one turns out – Purple Kush is known for its beautiful colors and relaxing effects, so I've got high hopes! This past week has been a whirlwind of work, leaving little time for anything else. My phone's camera roll is sadly neglected, with only a few snapshots to show for it. But finally, I'm finding a moment to catch up on my grow diaries. It's been exciting to see the progress, even if it's just through photos. I'm looking forward to documenting the next stage!
