Ok they're strong for real! One is still untouched (the guarantee one) One is all good after the 2ยบ topping (risking it, to autos just the 1ยบ topping is good already, don't waste time, but I'm learning so fuck that) One I moved a little late to a 5L vase, did one topping too, just the 1ยบ to see how she reacts, all good for now. The other must be pissed off hahahah because I'm learning LST and she is my training, I wanna see how she behave with different positions but all good for now. See you guys next week, wish me luck!

At the start of week 3 she wasn't quite as big as what I would have hoped for but it looks like she is staring to turn it up a notch, for now I will just continue watering when dry. Started LST on day 20. Sorry about lack of photos on day 21.

Harvest: Everything dried up to 347 grams + 96 grams of super high quality trim. Overall I am not too pleased with the smoke of the product. Although the bud size, bag appeal, smell and taste are pretty much all there, the shitty burn is a deal breaker for me and the majority of this weed is quite frankly useless. Another downside is while smoking Iโ€™ve found 4 seeds in an ounce from almost every strain. Light leaks? At least I learned a ton, including how to get super good burn for my next crop. Iโ€™m hoping that curing for a month or so will improve the burn but I wouldnโ€™t really count on it. I have seen weed dried for 4 days with no cure and no flush smoke clean and not go out once. I have been told that the key to white ashes/clean burn is proper mineral content in the soil and there is tons of scientific studies on cigar ash going back 100 years. Plants grown in a medium with high levels of decomposing organic matter, phosphorus, magnesium, chlorine and heavy metal ratio tend to produce black/grey ash. Whereas plants grown in a medium with a higher ratio of trace minerals like calcium carbonate and potassium in the form of wood ash, rock dusts, oyster shell flour and lower levels of decomposing organic matter will produce a dense, uniform white ash that rarely goes out. But this is still all theory until I test it to confirm for myself a few times. My last few outdoor harvests did not improve with curing at all so Iโ€™m hoping this will be the missing link. Plain peat moss and coco clearly lack essential minerals that help burn. If said theory is correct I should find a synthetic nutrient line with more trace minerals. Makes me wonder if growing if rockwool/basalt rock could improve burn in a hydro setup. I think I did a fairly decent job for my first grow. I went wrong in a million different places but I still stuck it out and got some decent herb. Things went wrong early when I got black spot mold, nitrogen/magnesium deficiencies and powdery mildew. I corrected most of it but things didnโ€™t get really bad until mid veg when I intentionally skipped a few feedings and defoliated quite heavily stunting the plants. I also didnโ€™t even top or start LST until the 6-9th node which was really stupid and hurt my yield. My temperatures were all over the place from the learning curve. I was severely overwatering without realizing it. 100% peat moss is a shitty medium. I also fed way too late in flower (not what caused shitty burn). I also used synthetic nutrients in soil.

I started germination of 1 Strawberry lemonade bean on 29/12/2020. I pre moistened my rockwool cubes with ph balanced water to 6.4. Made sure the plug was just damp and not soaked. Using a small wooden dowel I increased the size of the plugs pre made hole. Than I sowed my bean into the hole. Ripped off a small piece of rockwool and mulched it up. Lightly filled the hole in with the mulched rockwool. Than stuck the plug into a misted humidity dome, to complete germination. Shouldn't take anymore than 4-5 days to see a sprout. Once I see some cotlydon leaves bursting to the surface. I will get the plug planted into some 1 gallon pots. Plus get this lady situated into her home. Cant wait! Some background information on my experience with Strawberry lemonade. Ive only grown this variety out once. In a 1 gallon SOG grow where she faired ok. I could tell she really wanted to explode and branch out. But a restricted root mass just would not allow for it. She had some of the sweetest tasting flowers that came with a strong potent kick. Really looking forward to giving her a larger container and see what she can do when shes let loose.

Week 10 โ€“ Day 71 (Flower Day 43) ๐Ÿ”„ General Notes White Widow is now at day 43 of flower โ€“ slowly approaching the finish line ๐Ÿ ๐Ÿ’ง Water uptake has noticeably decreased, so Iโ€™ve reduced the nutrient dosage by around 20% โ“Do you guys do the same near the end of flower? I remember reading it's common practice to taper off, but Iโ€™d love to hear your thoughts! โ„๏ธ White Widow Status Still going strong ๐Ÿ’ช Buds are frosty, dense, and nicely uniform ๐Ÿ’ฌ Honestly, the pictures speak for themselves โ€“ everythingโ€™s running smoothly!

Day 27 and this girl is in her forever home which is a 4 gallon pot filled with pro mix... I took the two biggest fan leaves off today because they were blocking the bud sites I also second round of topping is complete.. she looked twice the size prior to taking those two leaves off but she's going to fill out nicely I just ordered from Amazon some 6-in pins so I could start pinning her down spreading her out and watching bush up..... Zamnesia Seeds thank you for the opportunity everyone check them out highly recommend them.. hope all is well hope everyone's ladies are doing good God bless and happy growing โœŒ๏ธ๐Ÿ˜Ž Day 32: as you can see, I finally got my garden stakes to get this girl opened up.. Now she's got to fill in.. https://www.zamnesia.com/us/

Heeeey guys! ๐Ÿ‘‹ Sorry for the very late update! I had so many things going on but now I can finally update the diary! This is the last week before harvest and I kept an eye on my plants pretty much all the time! When I started to notice more amber trichomes were appearing I knew that my babies were finally ready! I just wanted a small amount of CBN, so probably I reached a good balance! Besides that I believe everything was quite relaxing and simple this week. Their smell was wonderful! I also trimmed by babies almost everyday, I kept removing the most ugly leaves to allow some of the lower buds to develop a little more this final week! I stopped watering them 4 days before harvest and then I gave them one day of total darkness. I hope you all enjoy the videos and photos! Thanks!

New week starts. __________________ ๐ŸŒž19.04 Spraying by the 'Sea Weed' solution, but it's usual. Waiting for crone forming, doing nothing. It's a last week of vegetation, next one will be 12/12 hrs of light. ๐ŸŒž20.04 Nothing today except clean water spraying. I was thinking about HST making to lower a middle brunches of my 'stack'. But I'm too scared to cause a lot if stress to my girls. They can become hermaphrodites, it's too risky. Theoretically, I can wait one more week them to be healed from the lasd defoliation and then break some brunches. But I don't want to wait more. ๐ŸŒž21.04 Nothing today, we just growing. 'RG'#2 has alot of yellow tips on its yong leaves. It's definitely a feeding deficit, but I already giving them nutrients in 80% concentration. Next feeding (two days later) will be 100%/full dose and then light schedule will be changed. ๐Ÿ‘‰Upd: I made HST (Supercropping) to eight middle branches of 'HB' and 'RG'#2. They were too tall compared to others. Now they have five days for healing before light schedule will be changed. It will be a great experiment for future grow cycles. ๐Ÿ‘‰Upd_2: All eight broken future colas turned themselves to the 'Sun'. HST procedure was successful. Now my garden is as flat as an ๐ŸŒŠ๐ŸŒŠ๐ŸŒŠ (almost). ๐ŸŒž22.04 Nothing today, even spraying. I want them to heal faster, not to rot... Broken branches of 'HB' and 'RG'#2 feels great. Leaves aren't withering, their stems are hard. They'll be OK after a few days. I think I'll made one more defoliation on wednesday. Wright after that I'll turn on 12/12 light shadule. ๐ŸŒž23.04 Today I measured drainage water. There are too much sault was gathered in pots: 2.8Ec I drained 60 liters of nutrients solution (20l each pot). And EC fell to 2.6 only - it's too damn high numbers! In wednesday I'll water my plants with 'GHE Pro Clean' before light schedule changing. It will clean them well. Upd: 12hrs after this procedure they look much larger then they were before. I'm starting to run out of space in my box. ๐ŸŒž24.04 Nothing today. A soil is too wet, Ec is too high, the broken branches haven't healed yet. I'll wait for two days, then flush my girls with a 'Clean' solution. Upd.: Light defoliation (~40 leaves total) was done at the evening to all except 'HB'. It was a last leaves cutting before flowering time. Details on photo. ๐ŸŒž25.04 It's a last day of vegetation light schedule. I'll turn my lamps to 12/12hrs tomorrow. Also I will turn on a third 100W lamp in the box. This was a normal week. ____________ Week ends.

After topping last week we've just been watching them grow. Bending down the branches to help them spread out. Over this next week I'll start my lst ties to help pull them down and out.
