Hello. This is the end of week 7 and the beginning of week 8 of veg. Got one of the plants spread out. Just waiting for the other branches to get a little longer. Plants are doing good. The pots seem light today, so they will get some nutrient when I'm done with these diary postings. Another week or 2 of veg before I flip to flowering... Stay Tuned. OK. Keep Growing Straight. Chuck.

So grow started with lots of trouble.heat ..bugs .. temperature swings and at the end cold rainy weather.how ever I'm impressed by the bounce back.. heard lots of bad story's over this breeder and the automatics I had where in deed very disappointing. So this mighty Amstel freezeland 2.0.. Liked the growth and loved to see it working.next year I try to grow them somewhere in nature.think they are strong enough.

Start week 7 of flower. No matter how much calcium ill give her with ph 6.2 she wants more. Never grow something like that before. Still, looking very good with lot of trichomes. Day 96. Took good pictures, one of them is the lowest bud on plant. Day 97. Took a cut to check the bud if everything ok.

I Have let them veg out as much as I feel the grow space can handle. I am sure there will be a bit of pruning and super cropping in the near future. These girls will grow untouched other than the 2x daily fertilization, but I am switching out the Horti-Grow with the Horti-Bloom, feeding at Hort-Bloom @ 2.7 GRMS Per Gal and Horti-Cal @ 2.5 GRMS Per Gal. 🗓️04.21.24 Today fed with Hort-Bloom @ 2.7 GRMS Per Gal, and Horti-Cal @ 2.5 GRMS Per Gal. 🗓️04.22.24 Today fed with Hort-Bloom @ 2.7 GRMS Per Gal, and Horti-Cal @ 2.5 GRMS Per Gal. 🗓️04.23.24 Today fed with Hort-Bloom @ 2.7 GRMS Per Gal, and Horti-Cal @ 2.5 GRMS Per Gal. 🗓️04.24.24 Today fed with Hort-Bloom @ 2.7 GRMS Per Gal, and Horti-Cal @ 2.5 GRMS Per Gal. 🗓️04.25.24 Today fed with Hort-Bloom @ 2.7 GRMS Per Gal, and Horti-Cal @ 2.5 GRMS Per Gal. 🗓️04.26.24 Today fed with Hort-Bloom @ 2.7 GRMS Per Gal, and Horti-Cal @ 2.5 GRMS Per Gal. ╰⊰🔹╰⊰´🔹⊱╮🔹╰⊰🔹╰⊰🔹STRAIN INFORMATION🔹⊱╮🔹╰⊰🔹╰⊰🔹╰⊰🔹⊱╮ Cheese XXL cannabis seeds are a special blend of Afghan Kush x Super Skunk producing the most pungent dank weed. Cheese XXL is the third commercially available edition released by Original Sensible using and developing these Afghan and Skunk genetics. The first release of these genetics was their Skunk Afghani. The second improved version was Stinkin' Bishop which had an improved and more potent THC content and was more pungent in terms of smell. Now the third and improved release on a similar theme is this Cheese XXL which has a similar THC content but with an improved heavier yield. The smoke is incredible with an outstanding flavour of pungent skunk and spicy, extra strong mature cheese created by the dominant terpene myrcene with its strong earthy scent accompanied by caryophyllene and pinene which combine to create a peppery acrid cheesy odour. THC levels are exceptionally high in this Cheese strain and the effect is well-balanced creating mental and body relaxation with a remarkable alleviation of stress and depression. The strong pungent aroma starts early in the flowering period, if you're growing Cheese XXL indoors you'll need plenty of ventilation to disperse the stinky "road kill" aroma of these babies! Cheese XXL is a Cheese strain particularly suited to indoor setups but also thriving well outdoors these feminised marijuana seeds are incredibly resistant to mould and disease and produce a substantial harvest that both the professional and amateur growers alike can easily achieve. These Cheese weed seeds are outstanding, break open the buds ready for use and you'll see why, the stench will make your eyes water! Cheese XXL from Original Sensible Seeds is a great choice to break into the commercial market of growing cannabis so if you're looking to buy something special with extreme yield, potency and flavour then Cheese XXL cannabis seeds are simply the best choice

Plants took a hard hit with bad ph levels in week 4 for a few days but are growing strong again and I will probably veg till the end of week 6 on these girls and switch to flowering in week 7. Overall it’s going good, water temps are a steady 18 Celsius with the thermoelectric water cooler I built and the small ac unit In the tent is holding the air temps between 23-25 Celsius. I added 4 gal of fresh water and nutrients at full strength to the reservoir on Day 38. Also the first lower screen was installed and I tied down/tucked a few of the larger branches to the screen.

The light has been turned down to 50% for the last week and now She's on her last week of flushing and and starting to get alot of yellowing on the leaves . The bud has frosted up pretty nice now . The buds are rock hard and I am hoping after drying that it will still have alot of weight to it . Not a huge amount of smell to this plant even late in flower. It smells very earthy when you open the tent up but if you touch a bud it smells like lemon citrus with a very strong fuel smell . But it really smells tasty 😋. The next 3 waterings will have a cleanse added to the water I just really want to make sure it's as clean as I can get it since it is my first harvest and I dont want to fail lol . Can't wait to smoke my own weed lol .

Welcome to Week 4! November 3 All is well, I see a little discoloration so I’m just keeping an eye on them. Watered today - 7.5g Grow/gallon November 4 Rearranged and increased lux to 30,000 November 10 It has been a learning curve for me this weekend trying to get temperature & humidity correct! All three plants looked like they were going to die! I ended up downloading a room VPD chart and hooked up a second humidifier and pumped humidity into the room at full blast. After a hour or so I finally got the VPD to be correct in the room! They are recovering well and I’m very thankful that they bounced back!

This is my second Big Bud grow but my first outdoor grow. The buds aren't as dense and the indoor with my CO2 bag. The bud is still very potent though.

The grow was a rollercoaster of highs and lows. My Blue Dream plant developed mold in the buds, so I decided to harvest my Banana purple punch earlier to stay on the safe side. The trichomes exhibited a good balance of amber and milky colors, but unfortunately, there was no time for a proper flush period. Banana Purple Punch encountered the most challenges among the strains. It struggled with aphids, nitrogen toxicity, and thrips, which affected its overall health and bud development. This strain seemed particularly sensitive to high nutrient levels, which likely contributed to these issues. Despite these setbacks, I’m hopeful for a decent harvest. Each problem provided valuable lessons on pest management and nutrient balance, which will be beneficial for future grows. Update 09.08. Today, I brought the Banana Purple Punch into my apartment for a trim session. Since I didn’t trim her wet, this took a bit more effort compared to the Blue Dream harvest. The buds are quite airy and fluffy, but they have a fantastic aroma. The vibrant purple color of the buds is stunning, and I can't wait to give them a proper cure and eventually taste them—I’m confident they’ll be delicious. Unfortunately, I had to discard a few buds due to mold spots again. The rich purple hues of the buds make it challenging to distinguish between mold and the natural coloration, but once they're fully dry and cured, the smell should reveal any lingering issues. The dry weight was 24 gramm.
