On June 9 I decided finally to transplant her to the last pot of 30l. She deserved it a few days ago, but i wanted to extend the time on the other pot because i can put it on the roof to catch more sun hours.
On June 11 I made a hard defoliation and i will let her recover for maybe a month to see if she get the shape that i want.
Everything is coming along nicely. I had some major hiccups in early flower that will probably be detrimental to my yield but at least now I know better. The two blackberry breath plants are by far the best plants in the tent. The garlics aren’t filling out like I was hoping they would and the I don’t think the cheese is going to fill out either. Getting some good terps but it’s just so airy. The slurricane looks ridiculously frosty and has some beautiful gas terps but she’s a runt, isn’t going to yield much and the powdery mildew is getting worse. I’m going to rearrange the plants in the tent to see if the pm is being caused by cold night temps or genetics. I gave one last synthetic feed to everything. I might give one more half strength depending on how done they look around day 48. I see some nice purpling and fading start.
I started a new round of seeds for my next run. I’m popping the rest of the blackberry breath’s and some other random beans I had lying around. Check out my other diary if your curious.
I just ordered a 12 pack of gelato 41 x dosido from Archive genetics for $290cad!!! I knew these elite Cali breeders were pricey but come on...
Very strong week. Stopped Rhizotonic. Began LST.
After feeding the gelato just pH water the paleness subsided and more colour came back to the plant. Gelato starting to grow bushy, strong growth from both plants.
The buds are becoming every day bigger and hairy and some trichomes starting to develop quite nice. The Smell is not so strong at the moment perfectly manageable by the carbon filter.
I'm gonna flush with 20 l at 1.2 EC and ph 6.6 and letting her dry for 5 days and then ill give her a boost of 1.8 EC so that lots of oxygen goes to the roots.
She was getting a little pale so I added a bunch on nutes last week to see if it would help. Doesn't seem like it did so I tested the pH and it was pretty high. Added some pH Down this week and got the pH down to 6. She got a good dose of nutes after that. We will see how the week goes. Hopefully next week she'll be a lot happier. 💚
The End is near. Can’t wait to harvest and dry them. Next 2 Weeks I use to flush them.
I think then they’re ready. I’m very proud of the purple BigBud. She’s purely looking incredible.
What do you think ?
So I harvested the top half of the canopy at day 58 while leaving the bottom half to finish up for another week. Looks like the best yield so far running for my runtz muffin grows.
Also dropped the water temp at night to promote colouration of the buds which seems to be working very well.
Right then 7 weeks of flower complete. I'll dive right in to the juicy bits as this week has been predominantly about deciding weather to chop or keep one of my girls going. In the end I chose to do both! As the photos and videos show the plant wasn't recovering so I checked the trichomes and it was actually pretty ripe. A few Amber's on the upper buds. Lowers still undeveloped so I decided to take the biggest and leave the smallest for another week or while ever the plant is healthy. I estimate I've taken around 7oz once dry. Depending how they swell up I'm hoping for a further 5oz of solid bag worthy nugs.
Looking nice and frosty, smell is that typical sweet haze with some sour diesel/fruit kick in there. You can see how the photos progress my hands getting covered in resin.
Got to give my other 3 some love as they are getting healthier and fatter. I'm thinking another week on one of them and 2 on the others. I'll more than likely stagger the harvest like tonight if it proves worth while. I will update mid week.
Another good week, stretch is full on and probably another week or 2. They all got a topdress with compost and wormicompost, insectfrass, basalt, kelp, epsom, and seed meal to keep the worms happy. All in small doses... less is more :-)
Day 1 of week 4. Decided to do some LST on her. First time using dry amendments for Nutes and I must say I definitely recommend. Added them to the soil before I planted her and she’s shown no signs of deficiency.

Hi guys it's time to harvest in two weeks I think and hope not more I can cut let's say this beauty I can not wait I stopped the nutrients two days ago to prepare the pot to do the washes is all here So we hope not to cut the first of the due because I don't do it any more anyway

22/7.
I'm noticing that it has a difference of other qualities that it doesn't seem to blame for the nourishment I am trying to increase .... I have to say that it has a very strong smell and the tops! they are very hard and full of glue!
Despite the stresses the plant feels very well. I did the topping last time, it will have 32 central branches and many other branches, I am going to leave it in the vegetation phase for 6 weeks, I will plant the scroging and fill one square meter 🌱👌
