It has been a week of snap snap snap! let's call it accidental toppings - yes - multiple. The OG Kush seems to be quite fragile compared to other strains I've grown. Continued LST has resulted in me snapping off the end of the main stem and another major branch. Both days within switching the light regime. Now I have to fill up the net using lateral branches. Initiated flowering with an extended dark period (32hrs) prior to switching light regime at the beginning of the week - this practice is supposed to promote a faster initiation of flowering by the plant. Light green spots and other spots noted on big fan leaves, possibly a calcium or other deficiency. Spots are lighter shade, irregular though some are circular. End up turning bronze colour dust. No pests have been spotted during extensive inspections. The problem remains to older leaves only and doesn't seem to be affecting any new growth. I also think I may have some Nitrogen toxicity due to my CalMag solution having a NPK ratio of 6-0-0. Getting some low N solution this week so hopefully that will address any impact on the flowering stage. The plant still seems to be strong, forming strong branches and massive fan leaves. Growth is being tucked under the net to fill it up. Pruned a few stems and leaves from below the canopy which may never see the light of day. Run-off EC still remains below target. Tracking run-off volume/EC/pH at every fertigation event as I manage the feed EC to monitor what the plant is doing/feeding. Fertigation is maintained now to once a day (at lights on) to maintain the target EC. Light period is during the night time to better maintain heat/humidity conditions during light off period (which happens during daytime). ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The grow setup includes ; - Secret Jardin DS120W tent (120cm x 60cm x 180cm) placed inside the bedroom - Mars Hydro SP250 LED light - extraction fan - AC Infinity Cloudline T6 (gives me great control over the environment) - ventilation fans - aquarium heater for nutrients solution (for winter use only) - small oil heater (for winter use only) - small dehumidifier - 20L Airpots (as final pots) and 3.5L general plastic pots (for seedling stage) - Canna Coco substrate mixed with 40% perlite - GHE Flora Trio as base nutrients and various additives - pH and EC/TDS meters - 2x Govee Thermo/Hygro meters (one at canopy, the other at the roots level - these allow for external monitoring and recording) ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Some strain info from Royal Queen Seeds ; An amazing mix of genetics background - Its true genetics are unknown. Some say OG Kush is a mix of ChemDawg with a Lemon Thai and Pakistani Kush. Others say that it’s just a special cutting of ChemDawg from the early 90s. The most obvious trait of OG Kush is its strong, unique, very dank, slightly citrus aroma, almost like fuel or strong detergent. The flavour of OG Kush is equally as strong and dank, with a long-lasting aftertaste. Strong mental and physical high - OG Kush is an extremely strong cannabis strain, with most experienced smokers listing it as one of their favourites. The effect is as strong physically as it is mentally. Though its effect is like an Sativa, the strain's genetics are mostly Indica. The effect is as strong and complex as the flavour. OG Kush takes around 8 weeks to flower and on average the yield is 500 grams per plant.

Entering week 8 and one pheno still shows nearly 100% white pistils. The others still show predominantly white as well. Nevertheless, I’m gonna start tapering down on the nutes.

Buds stacking slowly but surely. Will be a semi late finisher but it's ok, that's y I got the greenhouse. She has a crazy unique smell that's hard to describe. I'll pry give PEV another shot down the line. Especially outside since they are so resilient.

D42: She looks like she was responding to the switch to the hps tent by going into flower, but I pulled out my last flowering plant and switched the bulb to MH so it'll be interesting to see if she revegs now of if she keeps trying to flower. I had a plant do this before and I ended up chucking it because it got confused and stopped growing. She's got tonnes of nodes now though, pulled four fan leaves from the main stem to open up the insides to light and due the half attempt at mainlining at a young age she's got weird posture and lots of branches. Gave her a feed of organic grow. D47: another feed of organic grow and humid acids. Some more lst, and picked four leaves off that were blocking nodes. D48: looked like she took almost the whole week to look like she recovered from the transplant shock. The lst yesterday made everything real nice and even. I think I'll keep tying her down and when all the branches reach the same height I'll change the tent to flower.

we got one good ☀️ day this week. I lifted da plant up, removed da second bulb & still angry that it's been 12 weeks 🤯

Look how frosty she is!!!!!! On she goes

FLOWERING STARTING THIS WEEK :)

This week the girls are looking strong, I will continue exactly the same regime. The buds are developing well. They are very sticky. The 2 non budding plants are showing signs of pre bud. Growing different strains is challenging. The timelines are very different. The 2 budding strains are Anethesia Auto from FB420 and Purple Haze from Zamnesia. I installed the Infinity AC Spectrum 3 camera this week, so far it has been awesome.

Everything seems to turn around this week. My grow didn't go well and also a lot going on in our lives. That's why it took a while for the diary to get back on track. Sometimes all we need is some good news and this came two-fold this week. First I woke up to see my favorite coin go through the roof (go Shiba) and later to be surprised by the doorbell, with a bigger surprise: my prize came in!! A great care package by the guys of @Fastbuds, thanks so much, and totally enjoying it! It really made my month. So to find my girls thriving this morning is the third gift in a week that keeps on giving. My soil recipe combined with this great light, the SP-3000 by Mars Hydro (thanks so much @MarsHydroLED) are the reasons all is getting better even with this runt girl, the sole survivor of a pack of 5 Expert Seeds Gorilla's, bought at Zamnezia. See my soil recipe on the germination page if you want to see how I do it or create it yourself. It is unreal how much it aids recovery in severely stressed plants. If you live in Europe, I have accidentally stumbled upon and elaborated on a European Master Mark and Subcool Super Soil recipe. The problem is that Ocean Forest soil is very hard to get by in Europe. Also, some of the amendments and tea mixtures are sold only in the US. After searching online, asking the guys that make Atami and other organic medium specialists I have made a recipe that comes close and definitely matches the super soil recipes we all have seen. So please use it to your advantage. Ask me anything if you have a hard time finding stuff you need and don't worry it works excellently without the permaculture tea as well! So see how she is going back to thriving, in a couple of days after replanting. Instead of stress, they are recovering. Another proof this soil is the European answer to Supersoil. THank you for checking in again! Happy growing and see you soon!!

First week going smooth,just a little bit cold but still feeling good

😫PRIMO OVERFERT SENZA AVER DATO NULLA ASSURDO...solo acqua e sono cariche scure ora sono palesemente in over... procederò ancora per altri 10 giorni di acqua il topping a funzionato bene da come si vede nel video ora faro riposare per 15 giorni e poi lancio in flow 14/05/2021 la jungla sembra crescere ora dovrò fare un pò di pulizia defogliare dalle foglie piu grandi e lollipoppare per bene.... sono solo un pauroso di togliere le foglie grandi (foglie primarie) al momento zero fertilizzanti ancora troppo scure 18/05/2021 la sera del 18 a un giorno da un mese di vegetazione in growbox ho lollipoppato e potato i rami i inutili.... ho dovuto anche fare una rotazione di piante in quanto non sono uniformi nel crescere.... ho riempito il bidone da 30 litri e mi sono accorto che le baby ora bevono molto pur troppo sono ancora in forte stress e overfert non capisco da cosa provenga in quanto non ho usato nei fertillizzzante.... vedremo oggi 21 come staranno ora posto le foto del 19 maggio giorno in cui fanno un mese e sono ancora 40cm aime qualcosa sta rallentando la crescita e arrivato il filtro a carboni e pesessantissimo speriamo che la mia box lo regge

🍋🍒 Lemon Cherry Cookies Auto – Woche 14 | Der letzte Tag 🌿✂️ Und damit schließt sich heute auch bei meiner Lemon Cherry Cookies Outdoor der Kreis. Woche 14 – und gleichzeitig ihr letzter Tag unter freiem Himmel. 🍋🍒🌿 Heute wird geerntet. ✂️ Wenn ich mir die Pflanzen jetzt noch einmal in Ruhe ansehe, bin ich vor allem davon begeistert, wie unterschiedlich sich die einzelnen Blüten entwickelt haben. Von kräftig grünen und frostigen Buds bis hin zu wunderschönen dunkelvioletten Blüten ist wirklich alles dabei. Gerade diese Purple-Töne zusammen mit der sichtbaren Trichombedeckung machen einige der Buds für mich zu den absoluten Hinguckern dieses Outdoor-Grows. 💜❄️ Auch der gesamte Aufbau der Pflanzen gefällt mir unglaublich gut. Die langen Haupttriebe mit ihren vielen einzelnen Blütenständen geben ihnen diesen unverwechselbaren, natürlichen Outdoor-Look. Keine perfekt kontrollierte Indoor-Umgebung, keine künstlich perfekte Form – sondern Pflanzen, die sich ihren Weg unter Sonne, Wind und Wetter selbst gesucht haben. Und genau das erzählt man ihnen heute auch ein bisschen an. 🌞🌧️🌿 Die Lemon Cherry Cookies mussten während ihrer Reise mit den Bedingungen klarkommen, die ihnen die Natur gegeben hat. Trotzdem stehen sie heute hier mit einer ganzen Menge wunderschöner, harziger Blüten. Auf den Nahaufnahmen wird erst richtig sichtbar, wie viel sich in den letzten Wochen getan hat. Die Sugar Leaves sind teilweise deutlich mit Trichomen überzogen, viele Pistillen haben sich bereits orange bis braun verfärbt und zwischen den grünen Buds tauchen immer wieder diese wunderschönen dunklen Farbtöne auf. Genau für solche Details liebe ich Outdoor-Growing. Jede Blüte sieht ein kleines bisschen anders aus und jede Pflanze erzählt am Ende ihre eigene Geschichte. Besonders schön finde ich, dass einige Blüten trotz der fortgeschrittenen Reife noch richtig kräftig grün wirken, während andere bereits diesen dunklen, fast beerigen Look angenommen haben. 🍒💜 Damit endet heute nach 14 Wochen auch dieses Kapitel. Es wird nichts mehr gepusht und nichts mehr verändert. Heute dürfen die Lemon Cherry Cookies einfach noch einmal für ihre letzten Bilder vor der Kamera stehen… …und danach kommt die Schere. ✂️😄 Was am Ende trocken auf der Waage landet, werden wir später sehen. Aber wie schon bei der Apricot ist der Ertrag für mich nur ein Teil dieser ganzen Reise. Vom kleinen Sämling über die ersten Outdoor-Wochen bis zu diesen harzigen, teilweise violetten Blüten durfte ich ihre komplette Entwicklung dokumentieren. Und genau das macht so einen Grow für mich besonders. ❤️ Lemon Cherry Cookies Outdoor – Woche 14 🍋🍒 Letzter Tag 🌿 14 Wochen Outdoor ❄️ Schöne Harz- und Trichombedeckung 💜 Wunderschöne violette Phänotypen 🌱 Unterschiedliche Blütenstrukturen 🌞 Unter echtem Sonnenlicht gewachsen 🌧️ Wind und Wetter überstanden ✂️ Heute ist Erntetag Noch ein letztes Fotoshooting. Noch einmal die Buds im Sonnenlicht betrachten. Und dann heißt es: Danke, Lemon Cherry Cookies. 🍋🍒❤️ Du hast deine Geschichte erzählt. ✂️ HEUTE FÄLLT DER VORHANG – HARVEST DAY! 🏁🌿 Das nächste Update gehört nicht mehr der Pflanze… sondern ihren Buds. 😁🍋🍒 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 🍋🍒 Lemon Cherry Cookies Auto – Week 14 | The Final Day 🌿✂️ And today, another outdoor journey comes to an end. Week 14 – and the final day outside for my Lemon Cherry Cookies. 🍋🍒🌿 Today is harvest day. ✂️ Taking one last look at these plants, one thing I really love is how differently the individual flowers have developed. There is everything from vibrant green, frosty buds to absolutely beautiful dark purple flowers. Especially combined with the visible trichome coverage, those purple expressions have become some of my favorite flowers of this entire outdoor grow. 💜❄️ I also really enjoy the overall structure of these plants. The long main branches covered with individual flower sites give them that unmistakable natural outdoor appearance. No perfectly controlled indoor environment and no artificially perfect structure – just plants finding their own way under real sunlight, wind and changing weather. And today they proudly show the story of that journey. 🌞🌧️🌿 The Lemon Cherry Cookies had to deal with whatever nature decided to throw at them throughout the season. Yet here they are after 14 weeks, carrying a beautiful collection of resin-covered flowers. The close-up shots really show how much has happened during these final weeks. Many of the sugar leaves are covered in visible trichomes, a large number of pistils have turned orange and brown, and between all those green flowers there are these gorgeous dark purple expressions appearing again and again. These little differences are exactly why I love outdoor growing. Every flower looks slightly different and every plant finishes the season with its own character. I especially love the contrast between the flowers that have remained bright and green and those that have developed that deep, almost berry-like purple appearance. 🍒💜 And with that, after 14 weeks, this chapter comes to an end. There is nothing left to push and nothing left to change. Today the Lemon Cherry Cookies get one final photoshoot… …and then the scissors come out. ✂️😄 We'll find out later what eventually ends up on the scale after drying, but just like with my Apricot grow, the final weight is only one part of this journey for me. From tiny seedlings through their first outdoor weeks and all the way to these resin-covered, partially purple flowers, I was able to document their entire development. And that's what makes a grow like this special to me. ❤️ Lemon Cherry Cookies Outdoor – Week 14 🍋🍒 Final day 🌿 14 weeks outdoors ❄️ Beautiful resin & trichome coverage 💜 Gorgeous purple expressions 🌱 Different flower structures 🌞 Grown under real sunlight 🌧️ Survived wind and weather ✂️ Harvest day is TODAY One final photoshoot. One final look at the flowers under natural light. And then it's time to say: Thank you, Lemon Cherry Cookies. 🍋🍒❤️ Your story has been told. ✂️ THE CURTAIN FALLS TODAY – HARVEST DAY! 🏁🌿 The next update won't belong to the plants anymore… it will belong to their buds. 😁🍋🍒

05/19/2021 Week #7 flower. Gave her a good rinse today she was covered with pollen from nearby trees, drinking more water took 2 full two liter bottles before any runoff, soaking it up like a sponge. Couple hours later fed her some (1-3-3-1.5) N-P-K-calcium I anticipate two more weeks till harvest but we will see. Just got to keep her hydrated for next couple weeks. Apparently she is perking up! after taking a rest for a week or so. And putting on new flowers, and Tangie parentage is very identifiable in her SMELL! WOW Enjoy the videos.🙏 Ps. I decided to fix floppy stem, hopefully it will now put more effort into finishing flower! Will she swell in last weeks??

So at the start of the week I did what everyone says not to with autos; top/fim em!! As I said this is 💯 an experiment so, why not?? The last pic and vid are 3 days after topping
