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 ! 🚀

🌸 Week 4 Flower — Permanent Marker 🌸 Here we are, my dear friends, entering the 4th week of flower and things are getting really exciting. The two phenos are now starting to show their true personalities: • Pheno #1 — our sky-reacher, standing proudly at 2 meters tall! She’s stretching hard, aiming for the moon, and has forced me to pull the lights all the way up. Fingers crossed she slows down here, but what a presence she has in the room. • Pheno #2 — the compact sister, sitting around 120 cm tall, balanced, and just as beautiful. Both are similar in structure and leaf formation, but their size difference makes this grow even more fascinating. Despite the heat challenges earlier, the girls are holding strong. With the AC unit now installed, conditions are finally more under control, and I’m hopeful it will make all the difference going forward. ✨ This Week’s Focus ✨ • Height management: Lights are maxed out, now it’s all about keeping balance and preventing stress. • Environment: Temps are more stable with the AC, giving the plants the comfort they need to keep stacking. • Observation: These differences between phenos are a reminder of how unique each expression can be, even within the same strain. 🌱 Nutrition Still running with the Aptus organic program: regulator, top booster, calmag when needed. The base super soil and pellets are carrying the weight beautifully. Leaves are lush, flowers forming, and energy is focused upward. 🔎 A Note on Pheno Hunting One of the most exciting parts of growing from seed is watching the phenotypes express themselves. Even seeds from the same pack can show different growth patterns, some stretch tall like Pheno #1, others stay compact like Pheno #2. Neither is “better” or “worse”, they simply carry different traits from their genetic background. This diversity is what makes pheno hunting so magical: it gives growers the chance to select the expression that best suits their style, space, and taste. 🐝 The Dognabis Cup is ON! 🐝 This week also marks a special moment, the Dognabis Cup is officially underway! 🎉 Welcoming packs have started arriving at growers’ doors, unboxing photos and videos are already popping up, and the first diaries are live. It’s a joy to see the community coming together. 💌 Invitation I invite everyone to check out the new Cup diaries, cheer for each other, share experiences, and most of all, have fun.

I transplanted the girls in the early morning to 18L AutoPots. I use the airbases with an airdome, and a airstone connected to an airpump. As for the soil i use Plagron Coco-Perlite 70/30. After i transplanted them i moved them into the 100x100x180cm tent. The light is at 40% strength with a distance of 60 cm. Im happy they are finally transplanted into the AutoPots, My plan was to do this way sooner but i forgot to buy the root disks. So i had to wait till they arrived, and with the legalization in Germany there is a huge delivery time. 6-7 Temps: 18.8 to 25 degrees Humidity: 41% to 64% 7-7 Temps: 18.8 to 25.5 degrees Humidity: 44% to 57%

This week went fast, she is flowering at a nice rate, leaves not too damaged, just the tip drying of under hot super hps and fans, so just removed all the old damaged fan leaves, cut in half those shading under growth and tucked those healthy one when possible. She looks greyish in strong light compare to the other strains, a true grey back gorilla lol, trichomes all over buds, smell is so interesting, pine, lavenders and citrus with some other terpines blend I cannot identify yet. Fed her some Epsom salt only this week.

Auto Berryblue is going great. I am now in the stage where the buds will start fattening up. I definitely have at least four to five more weeks left. She smells amazing and growing crystals all over. My other autos are exploding with leaves and bud sights. They are beautiful! Cant wait to see how she buds. I have lots and lots of support. She is gonna have heavy branches. Fingers crossed they continue on there gorgeous road of flowering! https://youtu.be/UG_GNplZJts AK74 was the only strain I did a Leaf tuck on and her canopy turned out beautiful! No trimming no training.

Since the remain plants have revegged, I will be pampering them with nutrients how 125ml once a week, I’ll be harvesting this baby in January or end of January. Loving the bud sizes… all I need is for them firm up and finish this reveg phase, I do not mind her adding more development on the existing.

04/13/25: The plants have now fully adjusted to their new environment, and all five are looking vibrant and happy. Leaf posture is strong, color is rich, and the canopy is filling in nicely. They’re handling the training and topping well, showing no signs of stress, and overall growth has remained consistent. While inspecting them before today’s round of training, I noticed what appear to be early signs of male pre-flowers on PP1 and PP4. It’s still too early to be certain, but it’s looking like I may already be down to three possible females. I’ll be keeping a close eye on them over the next week—things should become much more clear soon. Today I topped all five plants again—this time at the first node of each of the four main branches created from the last topping. This will help build out a broader, more evenly structured canopy. I also used plant ties to gently pull down each of the branches to open up light penetration across the plant. In addition to branch training, I used ties to lightly hold back some of the larger fan leaves on the lower two branches to help expose new growth sites. I’ll leave those fan leaves on for another 3 to 4 days as the new tops develop, then remove them to redirect energy upward and continue opening the structure. They were also watered today with a light nutrient mix, similar to last week’s. The plants still look very nutrient-rich, so there was no need to push the EC any higher just yet. Based on the current rate of uptake, I expect they’ll be ready for another watering in about 3 to 4 days. If anything noteworthy comes up—especially regarding sexing—I’ll update sooner. Otherwise, I’ll be back in a few days to document a light defoliation and any continued developments.

Beautiful flower full of trichomes. Smell and test fantastic. Very fast flowering. She was done on day 49 but I cut her down few days later. I love the strain, the only thing that I will like this strain to have is a better yield. Beast quality buds I ever grew.

She has grown a lot since last week so i did some more lst. I think that she has almost reached full growth potential if she hasn't already. The bud development is starting to ramp up. I also removed a few leaves I watered once with 2,5l of rain water and another time with 3l. There were some very hot days (32-38 °C) so she had to be in the shade a lot of the time.

21.02.24 BT 32 Mahlzeit Buddy's 🙂 Den Lady's geht es Wunderbar Sie haben alle beide auf gehört sich zu Strecken. Jetzt geht es langsam los und die Buds Plustern sich auf. Jeden Tag bis Dienstag werden noch da und da ein paar Blätter entfernt aber ohne Sie zu stressen max 2 pro Pflanze am Tag. Es sind auch nur die Blätter die Bud's verdecken Heute gab es wieder lecker Futter 😋 Hesi Blüh Complex 5ml auf 1L Wasser , Hesi Booster 2ml auf 1L Wasser ,Hesi Phosphor + 0,4ml auf 1L Wasser und Hesi SuperVit. Alles zusammen ergab ein Super Nährstoff Trunk der Sie jetzt erst mal für 4 Tage versorgt . Skunk #1 riecht sehr stark aber das war klar und immer sehr sehr fein. Der Typische Skunk Geruch wird von einer schönen Zitronen 🍋 note abgerundet. Tangerine Sugar riecht sehr süß und fruchtig. Tricome bilden alle beide sehr gut, der Nodien Abstand der Skunk #1 ist definitiv kleiner somit gehe ich stark davon aus das sich fast ein dicker kolben zeigen wird und das an allen Haupt und Seitentriebe. Tangerine Sugar wird auch schöne Bud's zum Vorschein bringen aber halt keine durch gehende kolben 🙂 Ihre Triebe sind definitiv nicht so kräftig gewachsen wie die von der großen Schwester aber verstecken brauch Sie sich auch nicht. Mögen all eure Lady's Gesund und brächtig Wachsen und euch mit schmackhaften Stuff versorgen 😉 Danke für vorbei schauen bis zum nächsten Update✌️😊

Defoliated one final time, running out of height space fast. Hopefully they do not stretch much more in the final 6 days of stretch. Also picked off a few lower shoots after pics were taken, it was quite a aggressive defoliation so hoping they recover well in the next few days. Also raised ec by 0.1 as the ec dropped a point over the last few days.
