This week made a few oopsies . I gave un-ph’d water to one of the plants “moving to fast” . Started defoliation during this week to attempt to redirect plant energy into establishing a full canopy since flowering has initiated. Whilst defoliating I broke a branch that had to be taped to save it. Humidity went out of whack when I stored 4 prepped 5 gal pots for transplant in the tent sooo I’ve got to buy a dehumidifier bc at one point all my plants fell out in a fit . STILL haven’t filled these pots out, & I’m kinda sure/unsure it’s time to re-amend the soil for flowering. I’m conflicting on waiting until beginning/middle of week 7 so I can flush week 11 & 12 . I think that covers it pretty well Week 5 in the 📚 📕 📖.

To the false scrog I added a grid. The pre-bloom stage. Good acceleration in growth. That's what I was talking about, super stretching out in the first few weeks of flowering. This plant is not for low boxes, and I have 160 cm, 80 of which is taken up by the pot and ventilation with lighting. I fed a little molasses to wake up the bacteria :) I continue to cut off the lower leaves and growth point ovaries little by little.

On the 6th and 7th of March we transplanted plants from small pots to the big ones. As a base we used wet coconaut with perlit (70/30). Unfortunatelty, during the transplation we lost one 'Mexican Airline' plant— La Mujer (yes, we gave her a name). Now we have only two Lemon AK left in this diary. Their names are Josya (diminutive from Joseph) and Moishe as we «circumcised» them accidentally when transplantated to pots week earlier😵 Now they feel themselves great .

Las plantas siguen creciendo y formando flores. A la mitad les e aplicado una defoliacion selectiva de hojas primarias para abrir paso a las ramas bajas y agrupar la planta de esta forma consigues plantas mas compactas al no tener que alejarse tanto las ramas del tallo para recibir luz. La otra mitad no lo a necesitado al ser un fenotipo mas xativo y corto. El aporte de co2 las hace trabajar bastante y aguantar la dosis de nutrientes diaria. Solo se riega una vez a la semana con sensizym. La distancia internodal de algunas plantas es espectacularmente corta. Llos cogollos ya estan unidos y apenas han comenzado a salir. Muy ansioso por ver como continua esta variedad de barneys farm. En el ultimo video podeis ver el plano general y la diferencia que hay entre el fenotipo mas xativo y el fenotipo indico a pesar de ser todas dos si dos 33 y estar bajo las mismas condiciones.

Iniziata la seconda settimana di fioritura, le ragazze hanno fatto un bellissimo stretch in altezza, ed hanno iniziato a riempire tutto l'ambiente di coltivo, quindi munito di forbici ben disinfettate ho eseguito una piccola defogliazione delle parti basse delle piante e tolto qualche foglia grande che impediva il passaggio della luce e dell'aria. Vedrò nei prossimi giorni come reagiranno

Not much happening this week. WPM treatment worked like a charm and they are looking great. Flipping the lights and installing the netting in next 2-3 days just trying to hold out for some equipment to show. Adjusted ties a few times throughout the week and canopy is kept even. Gave #1-3 another round of defoliation on day 4, last one before flip. Plants really filling out tent now. Grew 4" this week, looking nice and healthy for the flip. Extended my tents exhaust to 18' and temp/humidity still holding as set.

It has been a great week of growth and no further accidental toppings - first pistils beginning to show at the end of the week. Tops are looking good, forming shape across the net. Stretched branches are being tucked under one square across every 3-4 days. The net is filling up nicely, with some limited pruning below the canopy of both leaves and growth stems. I'm trying to avoid any defoliation on this grow. Fertigating with an inflow EC of >1.4 seems to be moving the run-off EC higher - will maintain higher inflow EC until run-off is within acceptable range. Run-off EC Should be within 300 Points of Inflow EC. Run-off EC still remains below target although now increasing to where it should be. 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.

Die achte Blütewoche markiert den Übergang von der reinen Massebildung zur Reifephase. Die Blütenstände sind dicht, kompakt und zeigen eine explosive Produktion von Trichomen, was auf eine intensive Synthese von Cannabinoiden und Terpenen hindeutet. Das Blätterdach bleibt dank des SCROG-Managements makellos gleichmäßig. Die Vitalität der Pflanzen manifestiert sich in einer hohen Wasseraufnahme von 6-7 Litern alle zwei Tage, ein Beleg für die optimale Funktion des Gesamtsystems. Der Fokus liegt nun vollständig auf der Bestimmung des optimalen Erntezeitpunkts durch mikroskopische Analyse der Trichome. Gleichzeitig wurde die finale Spülphase eingeleitet, bei der nur noch pH-reguliertes Wasser verabreicht wird, um die Qualität des Endprodukts zu maximieren. Flower Week 8: Entering the Ripening Phase & Harvest Preparation The eighth week of flowering marks the transition from pure bulking to the ripening phase. The buds are dense, compact, and show an explosive production of trichomes, indicating an intense synthesis of cannabinoids and terpenes. The canopy remains impeccably even thanks to the SCROG management. The vitality of the plants is manifested in a high water uptake of 6-7 liters every two days, proof of the optimal functioning of the entire system. The focus has now shifted entirely to determining the optimal harvest window through microscopic analysis of the trichomes. Simultaneously, the final flushing phase has been initiated, providing only pH-adjusted water to maximize the quality of the final product.

Well not really much too update everything is still going well i guess, purple queen is really slow with starting to set flower mode is that normal with this strain? Or I’m i just not patient enough 😅 sticky beast is going really well also going strong into week 5! My best one most be the runtz #1 that is in week 6 the other one is chasing it but like I said already i broke the main root (not all the way) while lsting her. I put some ducktape on her but i think she will take a little longer then the number 1

There’s a big variety of budshapes on the Q1 which I really like the dos si dos buds all have the same shape and look big and stacking Unfortunately one of my mates spotted a banana on the Q1 maybe caused by calmag deficiency so on Monday to Tuesday night I decided to harvest her . Trichomes were most milky and with an expected blooming time from 5-6 weeks harvesting her starting of week 5 hurts a little but should be fine . Dos si dos now solo in the tent with no bananas or seeds spotted yet

I grew two plants of the FFT1 testers. I started them indoors in the spring during COVID19 lock down. The germination date was the week of March 25, 2020. I didn't start the grow diary at that time because I was having a really hard time coping with the COVID19 non-sense and I wasn't sure I was completely committed to properly documenting the grow. In the end, I think this grow helped me cope... ha! So I topped one FFT1 plant, and let the other grow 'native' with no interventions at all. Both were grown totally organically with no added nutrients. We moved the plants outside on May 1, 2020 into our home made greenhouse/trellis. I took a few photos but I was still not committed to documenting the grow. I wasn't even sure if the plants would grow well considering I hadn't provided them with any nutrients at all. In fact I felt like I was neglectful of the ladies LOL. It became clear to me by June that these plants were gonna take off... they were growing like mad! I realized that I really HAD to share what was going on in my back yard. Also, I had made the commitment to FastBuds, and I was sure they would want to see the plants. I started this journal as soon as they started the first signs of flowering. By the time the stretch was done Big Mama (my first FFT1 plant) was an insane monster at 10 feet fall. Little Sister (the second FFT1 plant) was a solid 7 feet tall. Big Mama had been topped and mainlined and holy cow she was HUGE with eight main colas. Little Sister had not been topped and she was less than half the size. The buds were beautiful as you can see from the photos. They weren't super fat, and they weren't super frosty, but they were like piles of spaghetti noodles with beautiful streaks of amber. There were bud sites ALL OVER. Near the end of the grow, as the buds were 99% ripe I started to see small spots of bud rot in Big Mama. That's when I pulled the trigger and started the harvest. COVID19 put a real damper on our harvest party, but we were able to call in a few friends from our 'bubble.' Big Mama's wet yield was around 2600g and Little Sister offered 1300g. I was totally astonished. I have to LOL any time I look at the numbers LOL. We trimmed all of Big Mama by hand, but lost our steam for Little Sister. Her trim was rough, and we will have to use our Trimbag to clear off some of the foilage... I adjusted my dry weight numbers to accommodate for this. We dried them in the mesh tiered dry racks for the first few days and then moved them into large paper bags. They are not quite as dry as I think they should be, and so I have adjusted my dry weight numbers to reflect this. Total dry weight for both plants is coming in at 2000g total which is around 4.5 pounds. We put a bunch in the vapes and had a whole lot of fun! The vibe is a solid hybrid offering lots of energy for chit chatting and talking shit. But it's not a racy energy... it's somehow relaxing at the same time. We watched Alone on Netflix and made out... while eating ice cream and chips LOL. I was properly stoned. Stoned as fuck. My eyes were completely red and Njaak was a squinting grinning mofo. He's saying it's his new favourite, and that's before it's cured. This bodes well! So we have put the weed back in paper bags for the cure and are excited about this one. The flavour... we are going with sweet with a bit of citrus, but I think we need a bit more time to let it cure before we could offer reliable data. I'll update more on that later.

Fat nugs forming. Flushed into half strenght nutrients. Getting more light green leafs. Smells fruity and have a strong scent. Small yielding strain.
