Start of week 2 of flowering. Week 1 went well, but she showed signs of deficiencies and as such she got an extra 2 liters of nutes + water. Shit ton of bud sites on this girl!

Semana 5 (5Nov-11Nov)

Ale, cortada. Me gustó la planta sobre todo el vegetativo ya que fue muy bien sin mostrar problemas y tal... Ahora, cuando llegó la floración ahí si arrancó todo, igual que la otra, la hyperion, con oidio y araña roja. Recalco que tenía dos plantas mas bien grandes y hermosotas que también lo sufrieron, pero a modo chiste... Una hoja pocha por bichos, alguna con un poquito de oidio.. pero en general resistieron muy bien eso, las otras. En fin, esta planta si que es hermosa, el cogollo central es precioso, una lastima que mi movil haya jodido la mayoria de las ultimas fotos antes de cortarla, por eso alguna se estas últimas fotos se ven mal, miradlas de lejos, mejoran jajajajajaja Bueno, les hice bud washing, o lavado de cogollos y subí las fotos para que se vea, no es video... Quizás en un futuro haya algo con YouTube, pero eso, es basicamente 3 cubos, como no tengo cubos cogí una garrafa, la corte, y le eché 7 litros de agua y 100ml de agua oxigenada (peroxido al 3%), cogí dos tappers grandes, los llene de agua y heche media cucharada sopera en cada uno de bicarbonato de sodio y medio limón exprimido igual, entre los dos tappers y lo mezclé todo bien. Finalmente cogí una olla porque no tenía mas tappers grandes disponibles xD y agua osmotizada (o de botella) pero fria. -Paso 1: enjuaga el cogollo, rama, o lo que quieras limpiar, unos 20/30 segundo en la garrafa con el agua oxigenada. -Paso 2: sacudes un poco lo que hayas enjuagado y lo metes a enjuagar a uno de los tappers con bicarbonato y limón (puedes usar 3, 4 tappers, o un cubo.. al fin y al cabo es cantidad para no hacerlo todo en 3 litros y que acabaes limpiando mierda con mierda :) ). Aquí pues otros 20/30 segundos. -Paso 3: finalmente enjuagas en el ultimo tapper, barreño, lo que sea, con agua LIMPIA (de ahí osmotizada o embotellada) y fria, para que arrastre mejor los ultimos restos. Ya finalmente lo pones a secar unas 3/4 horas en un tendedero o donde mejor pilles, pero con ventilación para que el agua termine de irse, o al menos lo gordo. Ya una vez pasado ese tiempo y que veas que los cogollos gordos, en la parte de abajo (en la cabeza si están boca abajo) están secos, sin agua sobrante vamos, los llevas a donde vayas a secar, en mi caso al armario, que por ese motivo les voy a dar un poco mas de tiempo fuera para evitar subir mucho la humedad ya que tengo la Papaya Zoap secando y le quedará unos 4 o 5 dias aún. Cuando seque, subiré los resultados y fotos del manicurado y todo... Yo creo que va a salir una buena producción y además como la alargué bastante, espero que tenga efecto soporífero que ademas de sabor y aromas, es el efecto que busco en la hierba, que ayude a dormir. Aclaro: el peso en humedo es inventado jajajaja sinceramente, además de que no iba a pesarla en humedo, osea, recien cortada xD, tampoco la iba a pesar teniendo en cuenta que sumergí los cogollos en soluciones para limpiarlos, por lo que pesarían como 4 o 5 veces mas que el peso de recien cortado xD.

GORILLA COOKIES 🍪 FF / FASTBUDS WEEK #15 OVERALL WEEK #7 FLOWER This week she's really started to pack on the weight as her buds continued to dense up and she's smelling great as she's got about 3 weeks left before harvest! Stay Growing!! Thank you for stopping by and taking a look it's much appreciated!! Thank you to FASTBUDS!! GORILLA COOKIES 🍪 FF / FASTBUDS

This weeks update! Grow tent- so I had a buddy do my res change I talked him through the whole process couldn’t make it to the grow this week. Number and everything where perfect but!. He didn’t close the valve all the way to the blue dream res tank and left the drain pump on🤦‍♂️🏾. So when I got there this week leaves where curling and brown thought it might be a nutrient issue. Opened the res to check it. And there was only about a gallon of water in there out of the usual seven. No major harm I was planning on doing my last defoliation to her this week anyway. But that could have been bad. They are both receiving half strength nutes of the ripening mix GH recommends. Would have been a perfect week if not for that. No harm no foul tho. But def bout to start pushing them on the flower nutes and get back up to my 1000 ppm range buy adding extra bloom formula! #Staykited

Things going well again, the absolute dismay and fear of finding bud rot spreading through two plants has faded now, haha, the new air circulation setup seems to be doing the job Oddly I've made it through the whole grow to this point without any nutrient burn of the leaves but now that I begin to flush a little nute burn shows up on one plant, must have been some residual salts, only one or two are affected at all :)

------------------------- | BLUEBERRY HARVEST | ------------------------- After two sunny days it is harvest time !! - Finally, 16 days of flush - At first thought, the trimming would be easier compared to my previous plants, but when removing more leaves, more buds appearing too hahaha so it took like 4 hours or more..It is not the most accuurate trimming but i had not much time that day, i removed all the leaves and branches after weighting it all.. Like i said on the last post, im harvesting having in mind my bud preferences (the later the better), weather, humidity and sunlight, so the first of the cloudy/rainy days she was chopped in the moring, attending the principle of thc regeneration at night.. Got to say that, i wasnt expecting such production (8 days until it was well dried), this plant started as the season saver because the Cheese started to flower in march, revegged etc.. and i have been rewarded with this BB, a true genetic portent !! If i could, i would keep her as mother forever ^^ The quality is awesome, she looks more like a WW talking about that coat of thc.. Flavour without proper cure, is deep earthy at first, transitioning to a fruity, sweet one, it is a pleasure to smoke, delicious sweet aftertaste.. Maybe, this is the last year with this awesome climate, because im planning to leave Spain.. Thank you for follow and check !!! I hope you liked the diary :) Song of the week : Radiohead - Codex Good Vibes GrowDiaries !! ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 000000000000

Jan 22nd - tonight the feeding involves Aerated Compost Tea; 4L ea. (menu above) * compost tea looked like a cup of tea. Golden and slightly murky, the tea had reduced the nutrient load to small particles. It just felt right feeding this liquid concoction. Will be looking for changes / surprises these next few days - back to the G.P. liquid routine for the finish… - Black Willie gets thirsty faster, their meals may become seperate events very soon - due to slightly alkaline soil conditions lately, I have balanced the pH of the AC Tea to a 6.3 to help drive the Soil pH lower. Acid was diluted in cups of (good)water and added in sequence to gently drop the 8.3pH of ac tea. 24th - brewing a tea, as listed above, for tomorrow. 2 in a row is a first. Water pH’d to 6.5 b4 adding ingredients. Ppm @ 385 w/ingredients and bubbling Jan 25th - stuck with the plan and used normal Green Planet routine; 4.5L - looked like it snowed on the buds 26th - lifted the Scrog, no Tall threats at this stage. (Making watering to run-off so much easier) Jan 28th - last day of the week - soil checks etc., dinner in a perfect world

Estamos aqui começando mais uma semana, algumas folhas apareceram manchadinhas e com uns buraquinhos. Pode ter sido por causa da queda da lampada ensima delas... Folhas muitos grandes e desenvolvimento muito bom A piquena esta crescendo bem,muito forte e linda com belas folhas. Ira crescer para cima reta sem nenhuma tecnica.

Greenhouse feeded one is struggling under the high intensity of the light. But still growing frosty buds. Advance Nutrient one is smaller and is receiving less light. She is still recovering from the earlier accident though.

I’ve changed to a 12/12 light cycle, removed a few big fan leaves, and tied 2 of the plants tops down..

Flowering Week 23: The Great Defoliation & Purple Hints Update: 17.08.2025 | Day 163 Hey Growmies, Week 23 was all about the snip-snip – gave both ladies a serious haircut and opened up them tight spaces. Airflow’s king now, and these girls are breathing easy. Here’s the wrap: Durban Poison – Cleaned & Gleaming After that defoliation, she’s standing tall like a proper little tree – clean stems, no clutter, just good light and air all through her core. The buds are frosting up with pistils that’s turning a soft, shy purple. Real pretty. Smell’s picking up too – still subtle, kinda old-school. Not like these new genetic gas-monsters. If I had to call it something? Flowery. Earthy-flowery. Simple. Honest. Blueberry – Tall, Late & Mysterious This girl’s still reaching – almost 2.20m now, though only three mains broke the 2m mark. Rest is hanging around 1.80m. Buds are forming slooow, pistils are shy. She’s blooming on her own damn schedule – way behind Durban. Started sexing at the same time, but now it’s like Durban’s sprinting and Blueberry’s strolling. Starting to sweat a little… if she’s too late, mold might sneak in when the autumn damp hits. We’ll see. Fingers crossed. What’s Next? Wait... Catch y’all next week. Stay easy. – Smoking_Joe_Frazier

Day 22, 01.05.2024 - Not much to do but to further guide Erika II by imposing LST for better light usage of lower leaves Day 23, 02.05.2024 - Again a slow day. Just put in some wooden pins to provide some more light to the lower leaves - soil is again getting bone dry. Since I only water with about 10% of the pot volume I think it might be time already tomorrow, maybe in the afternoon / evening - also raised the lights to ~30cm above canopies again - Erika II is catching up in height - maybe I can remove the lifting box in a couple of days Day 24, 03.05.2024 - decided to give the ladies some water inkl. a fertilizer cocktail (~500ml each) - bought a couple of longer wooden sticks to guide the leaves & branches. May install a scrog net just for better organization/ handling - removed 2 leaves in total - also I am now positive: Erika I is definitely going into flowering Day 25, 04.05.2024 - Erika II catched up to Erika I in height so I removed the lifting piece. Now both plants are leveled on top and bottom (more or less) - Decided to remove some leaves. I removed every leaf that a) pointed inwards plus b) covered other parts of the plant - soil is again getting dry. Thinking about watering them in the morning Day 26, 05.05.2024 - Gave a round of water & nutrition: 500ml each Day 27, 06.05.2024 - Judging from the timelapse of the past days (see video!) I recognized: 500ml each second day might not be enough (mind you: it is only ~10% of the pot volume). Also after feeding the growing seems to explode :D (I fed for example on 05.05., ~17:00 hours). So I decided to give another round of drinks this evening (400ml each inkl. Fertilizer) at 20:45 which is around 24h after the last feeding. - Just realized: I did not measure their heights in quite some time. At end of week 4 both are clocking in at 27cm from top of soil. - Both showing now that they are ladies clearly - so I declare "End of Veggie" Day. - Removed 1 small bud on the lower part of Erika II. Also removed 1 leaf at Erika I that pointed inwards & blocked light. - Raised the lights to match 30cm above canopies again Day 28, 07.05.2024 - not much to do but to watch the ladies explode in height: they gained about 4cm in 2 days :) - watering is going to happen tomorrow This day also concludes week 4.

This grow was the best ive had thus far...through out this whole grow leaves never discovered one bit!! This was the strongest, most resilient plant I've ever grown. The buds look amazing!!! Trichomes on Trichomes on Trichomes!!!! They are super fat as well. I look to get at least 3-4 ounces of this girl!!! Thank you @420fastbuds

Almost done with week 5 veg one more too go and these girls are getting flipped .they are doing great in my opinion tops coming up from every corner this should be a nice tent at the end of the day buds from side to side 😊

Again plants are growing very quickly and all I am taking care of is the microbes and the water. Raised rootball temps to 24c plants are liking it.

we begging week 5 and the flowers are getting bigger and bigger These Strain is the fastest on these test , and the dark colors are begging to take over the plant . the second one is a weel younger but also getting fast really frosty

This was an interesting harvest. Everything was going great and the buds/trichomes were still piling on, when suddenly almost overnight plant "C" shifted to about 20% amber trichomes. So I harvested it, and because the other plant wasn't ready yet I decided to try water curing the first one for 7 days. Then at the end of the 7 days, I figured I'd hack down plant "D" and dry them both on the racks in the tent at the same time before moving into jars. The water curing was a huge success! After the first day, the water was cloudy with a slight green tinge. Second day was about the same. Then the water was just a little cloudy each change, no green tinge. Compare it to the diary I just opened around water re-curing some cannabis I bought from the government store, where the water is diarrhea brown :O On day 7 of my water cure, the water was perfectly clear so I decided to hack down plant "D" and get them both drying on racks in the tent together. While water-curing plant "C", I had its trim sitting in a bowl in the freezer. When I hacked down plant "D", I put its trim in the same bowl. After my typical wet-trimming, I hung up Plant "C"'s water-cured buds on the top rack, plant "D"'s buds on the 2nd rack for an old fashioned cure, and random trim from both plants spread out on the bottom 2 racks. The water-cured buds dried within about 24 hours and went into a jar with a 58% humidipack. The buds are SUPER dense and potent! Nice clean high, doesn't kill my throat. The downside is that the taste is really weak and not that great. But everything has pros and cons. Almost no trichome loss in the bucket during the water curing as well -- I was really worried about that! The other buds dried in about 36 hours and went into a jar with a 58% humidipack, where I burped it many times a day for a week. The smell and flavour are much more potent than the water-cured bud and it's a little harsher on my throat, but otherwise I'm not sure there's a detectable difference. However, you can SEE there's a sharp visual difference between the water-cured buds and the jar-cured :) Of course the jar-cured will mature more with time as well. Once the trim was completely dry, I put it in a bag in the deep freezer and dropped it to about -20. I didn't need to use a grinder this way -- I could just mash it all up in the bag with extreme ease! Sifted it through the kief screen, and pressed down 17 grams of lazy-man's hash! After processing the trim through the kief screen, I decarbed in the oven at 200F for 1 hour (this converts THC-A into THC or something to that effect -- if you don't do this, the edibles won't get you very high). I put the trim into a big mason jar and back into the freezer along with my bottle of Everclear. Once they dropped somewhere down around -20, I poured in the Everclear, put the lid on, and shook as hard as I could, as often as I could, for 5 minutes or so. I noticed that as I shook it around, the contents inside would alternate between solid and liquid which was kinda cool :) Shake it one way and it freezes, shake it the other way and it thaws... or something to that effect, anyway. I was able to use a double-coffee-filter to extract about 2 cups of dragon tincture! I threw everything in the coffee filter out -- next time I'm going to do a better job of it as there's a little pile of trichomes that forms at the bottom of the filter which I could put to use. Once I get that down next harvest, I'll have around 99% efficiency milking every last drop out of my harvests! White chocolate is so yummy, as are candy canes... I wanted to combine the two to make some edibles. Looking around for candy cane crush, I decided to check out Amazon. They had the same candy cane crush I was looking at from popular stores, for only a couple dollars more, so I figured sure why not have it delivered. I was planning to get some white Baker's chocolate, but on checkout of the candy cane crush I got a deal for adding on white chocolate Lindt bars for $1.25 a piece LOL! So I bought 10 of those. When the Amazon package arrived, I slowly boiled down 1/2 cup of my dragon tincture in a pot, then used a double-boiler setup to melt down 4 of the Lindt bars in the same pot. Once it was mixed well with the hash oil, I set it aside to cool for about 3 minutes before stirring in 1/8 cup of candy cane crush (plus I ended up adding maybe like a tablespoon more), pouring into a pan lined with parchment paper, and putting in the freezer for 30 minutes. So now I have a nice big chunk of white chocolate candy cane crunch stuff where a piece the size of my thumb gets me super high for like 8+ hours; 17 grams of lazy-man's hash; and 88 grams of bud :) And still enough dragon tincture left over to make 3 more rounds of edibles -- not sure what I'll make next! From now on I'm going to water cure a large portion of all my buds -- not just the ones I grow myself, but ones I buy from the Gummint too!

Sorry I missed a few weeks was outta town and not able to update! Things hav been going well! Took some time for em to start growing fast! But they are growing fast! Gonna need some rest from the topping and training from the bud clips. I think I got the manifold line down for all the plants! The og kush I accidentally fimmed it was dramatic lol but made it thru and still growing strong! Makes me laugh fim stands for “fuck I missed” but all this is trial and error for me! Any advice is appreciated! “ happy growing”
