Hi folks, I'm coming here to start the process of ending this grow journal. I harvested about three months ago and the weed is definitely cured. Photos are about to come — I'm doing a real studio photo shoot for those buds, they deserve it! While waiting for the shots, I made some pretty damn dank hash temple balls using the iced water extraction method (solvent-free) with my little washing machine. It's a mix of the 8 strains I grew here — never ideal to mix different kinds of resin... but man, this is some serious dedicated work, so I'm making myself happy with that 14g shiny temple ball in the end 😉 Here are a few details about my process for you guys (and don't forget — you can do it with fresh material! Fresh frozen is always tastier. Also, the drying process is much more efficient and faster with a freeze dryer, but... you need the budget for that. I don't, so I go with the air drying method — check it out below): 1. Get your dry trim, then cure it properly for at least a month (I did 3 months). Smell it — mmh, sweet, dried to perfection. ✅ 2. Freeze it, delicately wrapped in a freezer bag. 3. Let a large amount of tap water sit for at least 24h to remove chemicals like chlorine, then use it to make plenty of ice cubes — don't be shy, especially if you're not working in a cool environment. 4. Prep your washing machine: add trim between two layers of ice, fill up with clean water (as much as you can, large vortex is better than a smaller one), then make it seat for 30 min (45 min for thicker buds) the time that the dried green material gets wet again. 5. Prep your filtering tools: catch bag, different mesh bags, spoon, etc. 6. Wash as many times as you can before green contaminants appear, as these lower the quality of your hash — don't hesitate to go up to 8 to 12 washes if the resin still looks clean! Important: each wash has its own specific duration, and they get progressively longer as you advance through the process. Frenchy Cannoli (a true hash legend) provides a detailed timetable for this — from as little as 30 seconds to 1 minute for the first wash, all the way up to around 25 minutes by wash 8. Make sure to follow that schedule rather than using the same duration for every run or running it too long the first wash !! It could breaks to quickly your precious material before you collect all the trich's and the quality would be lower in the end. 7. Collect the wet resin in the mesh bags with a frozen metal spoon, make patties with the resin, and let them sit over some towels in order to drain as much water as possible (place a tissue made for hash collecting over the towel). 8. When the patties are a little dry to the touch, wrap them as they are in the tissue and place them in the freezer for 48h or more. 9. With an iron strainer, microplane your patties over the biggest flat surface you can get! It's important that your micro pieces of hash dry widely and don't get too compacted. Any failure in the air drying process will nucleate rot, ruining your hash in the end and making it a poor product — eventually something to throw away. Sad when you think about all the phases of the process to get to this point! 10. So, in order to air dry properly, you must — it's not optional — lower the RH of your dry room to 35% or slightly below, never above and let it dry as long as needed until the material feels like dry sand. For myself, I found 10 to 15 days is ideal. The room must be very lightly ventilated (not directly on your resin!) and in complete darkness — the goal is to preserve all those delicious terpenes! Ideally, temps around 60°F or 16°C 11. Now that it's dry, collect your resin with a large thin spatula! Make a little mound between two layers of PaperHash, boil some water, and fill up a wine bottle with it! ⚠️ From this point on, to avoid exposing your carefully dried resin to a more humid environment — which could ruin all your hard work — everything must happen in the same drying room. Keep working at 35% RH until your temple ball is tightly and airtight wrapped in PaperHash. (And don't forget to drink water — it's dry in there! 💧) 12. Start to slowly press your resin. Magical moment. Finally.... 13. Press 3 times for 10 to 15 minutes in order to really decarb your hash — because that's what it's all about! Between each press, try as best you can to shape a patty... until the final press, when you'll be able to form that magical shiny temple ball (it only shines with gloves on, guys 😄) 14. You are now allowed to try it — for quality control purposes only, of course! 15. Because you want to age your hash for the sweetest 5-star smoking experience: wrap your temple ball in a large piece of PaperHash — if you can get that brand it's ideal, or another kind (check https://thepressclub.co) as long as it's organic! 16. Place the wrapped temple ball in a glass jar and store it in a dark, cool place. 17. Wait a minimum of 3 months before opening it. 18. Open, smell, touch — you'll be amazed. Roll it up with some weed or tobacco or both (I do both) / Or get a Hooka... you are smoking some true primo aged hash made by yourself! Taste the difference and realize all the path from choosing the seeds online until this first amazing puff ... 🙏 I want to credit my inspiration for making this kind of hash to the great Frenchy Cannoli, who has shared all his knowledge through amazingly rich tutorial content that you can find online with a bit of searching. 😉 Peace Frenchy 🕊️☮️

Week went good some are further along then others but they all looking beautiful fan leaves starting to yellow and purple and such on some then others they just stretching still they won’t all finish at same time I don’t think but it’s ok

Nice flower set I love her struckture!!

Heute auf 12/12 Blüte umgestellt ... Mal schauen, wie beide stretchen ?

Been a good week, buds are ripening well. i have actually harvested the Candy Kush 2 this morning, will add another week for tha that harvest in a bit. Candy Kush 1 looks like she is ready, I think I will harvest her this tomorrow. Forgot to take a picture of the bubble kush, just the trichomes :) I think it needs another couple weeks, so does the fastberry. I am going to stop feeding this week and just water them. Sugar Mama will still get the regular feed.

Hey party people, we are getting close to the finish line now and she is looking good. Not going to lie I know I stunned her alot, but what we do have is gold smelling b.e.a.utiful. now it's just a waiting game for firday and I'll chop her down and get ready for the drying.. my next Diary will be much more on point you won't miss a think

Topped her. She's doing well. Will need to transplant soon

ASI TENEMOS ESTAS AUTOMATICAS DE GRANEL QUE ESTAMOS PROBANDO Y HUELEN MUY BIEN ESTOY REGANDO CADA PLANTA CON 3 LITROS CADA DIA, HACE 40 GRADOS EN LA TERRAZA 1600 EC PH 6,4

🌈 Mental Rainbow (Sweet Seeds) – Week 7 | Flowering Day 1 🌸 Here we go – the bloom begins! 🚀 Yesterday I flipped her, so today is officially Day 1 of flowering. She’s thriving in my own homemade Living Soil, and the root structure is crazy thanks to my custom booster 🌱. The smell is already phenomenal – sweet, intense and super fresh 🌿💨. Today I removed a few leaves 🍃✂️ to let the light penetrate deeper into the canopy. She also got just a light dose of Greenhouse Feeding Bloom – nothing heavy, since the Living Soil is already full of life ✨. This lady looks ready for a colorful journey – follow along to see how bright this rainbow will shine 🌈🔥. --- 🌈 Mental Rainbow (Sweet Seeds) – Woche 7 | Blütetag 1 🌸 Jetzt geht’s los – die Blüte startet! 🚀 Gestern umgestellt, heute offiziell Tag 1. Sie wächst in meiner selbstgemachten Living Soil Erde und hat durch meinen eigenen Booster eine extrem starke Wurzelstruktur entwickelt 🌱. Der Geruch ist schon jetzt phänomenal – süß, intensiv und richtig frisch 🌿💨. Heute habe ich ein paar Blätter entfernt 🍃✂️, damit das Licht besser nach unten kommt. Dazu gab’s eine kleine Portion Greenhouse Feeding Bloom – nur ganz leicht, da die Living Soil schon genug Power hat ✨. Das wird ein richtig bunter Run – bleibt dran und schaut zu, wie dieses Rainbow in voller Pracht erstrahlt 🌈🔥.

Plants looks fine..that all looks really good, so frosty and sticky. I'm curious about ending effect. Smells nice, strawberry buds not really growing big, but forbidden runtz doing great.

The temperatures, humidity, height, 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. Coop Poop, Molasses, Feather Meal, and Soluble Kelp are ml/gallon of soil top dressed. Everything else listed in nutrients is ml/gallon of water fed to plants without checking the solution Ph. Day 1 We had a high temperature of 89°F. Skies are clear and sunny, humidity is about 50%. I watered about 5 gallons. Day 2 we had a high temperature of 78°F. Skies were clear and sunny. Humidity was mid 50%'s. I watered about 4 gallons each pot. Day 3 was cooler. We had a high temperature of 70°F. Skies were sunny and humidity was around 59%. I took advantage of the low humidity and washed the plants in bio fungicide and I clean up some powdery mildew in the leaves. I watered about 4 gallons. Day 4 we had a high temperature of 72°F. It was very sunny and the air was dry. I watered about 4 gallons per pot. Day 5 we had a high temperature of 76°F. It was a perfect day for cannabis. Low humidity and I watered about 4 gallons Day 6 we had a high temperature of 81°. There was abundant sunshine. I watered about 5 gallons per pot. The girls are loving the weather. Day 7 we had a high temperature of 84°F. Abundant sunshine low humidity and I watered about 4 gallons. Overall this week was a success. The weather is finally cooperating. These girls are on cruise control getting ready for their ripening phase.

@twenty20mendocino Ateam R&D Update! Let’s Go Week 3 , day 17 of Veg!! Another great week it’s been , the babies are building a looking super healthy ! Sometime this week we will eventually top em a few times so you don’t want to miss next week’s update ! Y’all have an amazing productive week , peace love a positive vibes to all y’all Cheers an Enjoy 😶‍🌫️💨💨💨💨🤙🏻 Let’s Go A-Team!!!

The flush begins , Using final flush with water at 21.oC And some defoliating to get light down . Managing to keep temps stable at 23-25 oC with both lights Also added in a mars hydro light Last week and seems to be working well and shown good response from the plants under it

This has taken quite longer then I anticipated I'm really hoping it finishes soon but I cant complain buds have doubled in size in past week. But neither has major smell one with leaves has a sweet smell if u touch it but no leaves has no smell other then plant but trichromes went crazy when I chopped leaves was hoping for smell to come with it but I was wrong. I would love for some to guesstimate how much longer i got. Being this my first autoflower idk what to go by this is 8th week of flower for these 2

I poured 10 liters rainwater trough the coco to get old salts gone, now ill feed her normal again with 1ml/l calmag and 1.2gram/liter drypart bloom

we improvised with threads the mesh was badly placed but everything served and fulfilled its function, now the leaves have grown again and the mini jungle is re-formed, we really liked how the previous pruning turned out although aggressive to the plants it did not affect them they recovered almost instantly, and it works in our favor because of the space, so this is already the end of the second or the beginning of the third week, in the next one I will upload the pruning and everything as it is already at the end of almost the 3rd week of flowering, at least of the larger, the others, as you know, are 2 to 3 weeks apart, so for them it is 1 or 2 weeks of flowering, which is noticeable in their development. the risks that are written down in the diary are the fertilizer once a week, and 1 3.5-liter drum or a gallon is used, which is divided into the 2 largest and another equal gallon with a different proportion for the 5 smallest , in the newspaper it is written down of the great ones.
