Alright I've updated this postmortem and cure just to give an idea of what I was up to during the dry and cure weeks. This grow was a ton of work and I'm very please with the results. I learned a ton about soil and environment control and really feel like I'm gaining confidence and coming into my own as a cultivator. I've been playing a lot with ice water hash and rosin and have set some neat goals for the future like hunting ice water hash cultivars, going perpetual and expanding the amount of canopy I can work with by building a network of remote-operated satellite flower tents in friends' and family's abodes . I'm not sure I'll go through all this effort of documentation here again, but please follow along on my instagram, stay in touch and chill out with me sometime @Fullmeltalchemist.00 All in all, I was running 1000w of quantum board across three tents and pulled just over 1100 grams, which was a big goal of mine. Thanks for all the advice and love growmies! And thanks growdiaries for the platform. It's been coo.

Week 9: So it feels like this could actually be week 10 as I've been flushing this one early girl....She's a beauty and I'm flawless finish flushing. Gonna go with a few more doses b4 we harvest but she's ready. My other I've been Overdriving with Nirvana, Mike's OG, Bud Candy and Bud Factor X. Going into week 9 with strong finish on these other girls. The Buds are hand ✋️ sized and I got like 8 huge branches on each plant so already thinking about what my harvest is gonna be like when done. Also thinking alot about curing and my cure set-up. So basically gonna have buds curing all through the winter. The next grow should be done by Christmas so 2024 Bud will cure through election season and I'll be ready... Day? What's a day?: So @ this point my girls are women now and I'm already on to tha next!!! Actually maybe one more over drive session for a few but just letting these ladies kindo of just hang out by the pool. Taking lights down last hour of the grow to spray with a Grease, Golden Goddess mix so when light go to 6 they can feed through the leaves. Same thing in the morning. Spray and let them go on that dimmer light for a few then back to bright. I'm like the towel boy @ a pool of lovely ladies all asking me to spray oil on their backs. I'm getting huge buds and just kind of overwhelmed by all the work. There is alot of "love/hate/labor" in growing "Top Shelf" and I'm to the point in my grow where I'm think about of all things, "More nutrients" and where I can get the best bang for my buck. Went through my B2 like huh but only a 250ml bottle. The Grease gone. I thinking that or Canna. I few other nutrients running low but not low enough to stop this next grow, The Christmas Grow. Fast Flower, not Auto but Fast Flower. Growing 420 FB's line-up!!! That's like 6 strains so excited about that. Other than that spending thinking about the clean up of my tent and the floor spacing for the next grow. Woke up and started cutting of one of my ladies. Took three huge bud limbs, cut and trimmed b4 putting them in a paper bag to dry. My fingers smell like I've been "finger banging" the ladies. Almost out of weed and closing down the whole re-up operation. It's been fun dealers but bout ta give up my spot! Sunday..middle week 9...so one of my girls was officially retired 2day. Cut her and am goinging paper bag dry. Flushed her for a week and soil was almost dry enough but could of let her sit @ least til end of week grow schedule but said fuck it My other girls had their last or next to last feeding depending on how this particular feed goes. I did a couple of different things regarding nutrients. I dosed them well in honor of the one missing. Water and fed with care making sure that this last or next to last Overdrive shot gets me extra extra large buds. Almost start of week 10: Bout ready to flush these girls and get set up for the next grow. Watching a particular plant though that is not an A/F and pretty fuck'n amazed by it's size. 4 of these would fill my tent easily but zap my nutrients so waiting to see how these girls smoke b4 deciding what direction my next grow will go. Got one plant drying though and should be ready for the jars in another 8 or nine days. They are very sticky and big so excited about the next few weeks. This whole curing thing is gonna be fun and looking to try some stuff....fruit peels in a jar and flavorful terpene's Up early to get this grow flushed and finished. Since it's the start of Week 10 going into FDC mode on all these girls and get em out of this tent and into dry mode. Really proud of my first grow and hoping to harvest and cure goes smoothly. Some of my nutrient are low but looking @ the girls seems like they took the feedings very Stargate 2023: Somewhere in between flush and dry but picked up some cardboard boxes along with 5 cases of water. 2 cases maybe to finish flush and 3 to start the Xmas grow. I got my first girl in paper bags but am switching to hang drying. Started flushing all but one. Gave her some OD but will join the rest in flush in a few more days.(needs more density). Think I'm going 3 maybe 4 more flush feedings but after that gonna give em another week b4 the deed. Experimenting with flushing b4 the cut to see how far a can take these!! What ever week what ever day: So my first girl down and drying.... I mean it looked like she was moving faster than the rest so I flushed a week and chopped. This seems rushed and it is just a bit. So by having one plant ahead of the rest F.D.C. on this gives me an opportunity to figure out how I'm gonna fdc the others. So once my bud dries will cure for about a week and test. Other girls will be still flushing. I used alot of nutrients in this 1st grow and want to make sure my buds don't taste like shit and smoke smoothly. Been spraying my girls an hour b4 lights on with Golden Godess. Ran out of Grease a week ago but still confident my plants are loving the GG. So thinking about the next grow and how to deal with this photo...this mf is gonna be a doozy so considering giving it to a fellow grower I talk with sometimes. Gonna need the space and a light cycle in unisoness with my fresh girls in this Xmas grow. A big bitch in the corner bullying my babies and stealing they light aint happening. She might have to go outdoors...(Johnny Lee Hookerish) Not really worried though cause if I put her on the stroll, she'll get chose no doubt. Next grow in less than 2 weeks so be on the look-out for a new diary. This grow is giving me so much information and style. I'm a writer and writing/documenting this grow is a form of therapy. My career is an algorithm; I'm pretty good @ my job; I genuinely love all with the exceptions of a few. What was written is coming to pass. The earth will be aight, the people on it...there was a song made back in tha day called "Self Destruction" we headed that way So mixed that song with a few Burning Spear songs followed by some E.L.T G.B.A and here we are!!!!! So I've been drying in paper bags one plant and setting up for cure. The others are in flush so have have starting cutting leave. Got all my plants nice and manicured during the flush so that i can go straight to dry but found a few stems that actually dried from the last defoliation and found a couple of branches I had cut due to being small. I crumbled a bit and put it in my blunt.😁 with some D weed that pretty good. Yeah it smokes really good and I can notice and taste the flavor in that portion smoked.....Can't wait to cure cause if i can smoke on this one plant while curing these others propper. Say 20-30 days I think my T's are gonna shine but definitely noticing the nutrient quality difference in the smoke. Awgh man I think I this is gonna change everything!!!

Oh boy, what a week have they got Sick PH was very high. Didn’t know what to do so the last week and a half. I’ve been flushing them bringing the pH down little by little trying to go gentle eventually the last flash show PH at 6.8. Which is OK anything between six and seven is considered optimal range for cannabis plant.

The run continues nicely, we still had some temperatures of nutritive solution a little high with the heat of Danielle. It drops drastically in 2 days so I will finally finish this growth in the calm one and will be able to begin my bloom on September 24th. I apply hydrogen peroxide at a rate of 0.5ML/L, twice a week as a treatment. The root Rot X is used every ten days when changing the nutritive solution. I put less water in my system, in order to create a wet zone and a dry zone, I make sure that the roots are always immersed of course. As soon as the temperature drops, I will switch to 800 ppfd for the end of growth and depending on the evolution of the plants I may add some sensi grow a and b to increase the ec a little. If you are attentive, you will observe on the tips of the leaves or even on the leaves, spots of burns or deficiencies, it is simply the consequence of the pythium a few days earlier. The last growth update will be around September 24/25.

so people are going to ask ? where's the buds well I'm 3 days into drying and soon as everything is dyed I will share the details of everything but long story short..... I wanted to see if I could push my skills, by doing newbie outdoor mistakes like mold, heat and cold issues, pests, animals, nute problems and limiting myself to a budget of £50 for the plant so I could prove you dont need a fancy set up to get good grade cannabis. all it takes is skill, time and love for the plant. bare in mind I stay in Scotland where the misconception is you can't grow cannabis out here at all. well that's wrong I've had lemon haze grow outdoors fine that was a meter and a half tall. and this peyote reached 50cm max until I had to cut the main stem as I was having growth issues with the main stem holding the plant back. but tune in next week when is dried,smoked a little and then after that cured. I know this community is one of the friendliest I have met but I just don't want people making assumptions biased on 1 plant I've posted.

I think I am worrying myself more than I need too. The calicum defficiency has took over around a half of the fan leaves on 1 of the plants. I don't have much hope in a great yield from this one but fingers crossed my other 2 were caught in time. Have folder fed with a slightly more concentrated spray of cal mag and ph'd water. Whilst keeping a feed, plain ,feed schedule Unfortunately I don't currently have access to a ppm reader so can't say for sure exactly what the problem is but It seems the defficiency has slowed/stopped. Will continue to monitor.

1 of the bubba kush & 2 of the gorilla zkittlez are a little behind but over all everything seems to be going good so far! Day 10 update transplanted all the ones in smaller pots to 5 gallon pots except 1 of the bubba Kush it still needs a few more days! Everything else seems to be going great!

If you are looking for yield then green gelato is most certainly the one you're looking for. If controlled right you can easy get 10oz per plant on these!

Bud development going strong this week, seeing lots of sugar leaves and new bud sites forming each day. Hoping to see the buds stack a little more soon. All seven plants are in flower now, this purple trainwreck plant being the furthest along. She should have another 4-6 weeks left before her chop.
