Well she looks like she's finally done stretching she's starting to crown and I can't wait to see what she turns into.. I hope this is going to be a tasty one.. I will say for a half gallon of dirt this is turning into a pretty big plant.. initially I was hoping for an ounce or two just to try it but now I wouldn't be surprised if I end up with three or more... When you use maxi Bloom with Cal mag and silica you don't need a 5 gallon pot or 7 gallon pot to grow a big plant you just need to be able to feed it every day because the pot dries out quick.. that combination of nutrients is literally like steroids for your plants.. as long as you know how to flush properly this is definitely the way to go and it's also 100% the cheapest.. a 3 lb bag of Maxi Bloom is less than 20 bucks and you could do a whole run from beginning to end with just that bag alone.. you can actually do multiple runs with just that bag.. hope all is well Happy growing everyone ✌️

My second growroom is built and the girls have moved in. This new strain combines two well-received parents, Juanita la Lagrimosa (Spanish for "Juanita the Tearful") and Royal Highness, which are themselves genetic hybrids of other precursor strains: Juanita the Tearful from Queen Mother and a Mexican-Afghan blend; Royal Highness from Dance Hall and Respect 13. On and on the strains date back in agricultural time, each new variety with its own unique smell, taste, color, high and medical benefit. However, in the past decade, a goal of all this tinkering has been what some producers are starting to call “Royal Respect” with the soul of marijuana's benefits going toward both body and mind. Painkiller XL is notable for its near-equal representation of 6 percent tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and 7 percent cannabidiol (CBD), achieved by a seed that's 70 percent sativa and 30 percent indica. While the sativa variety of cannabis is widely known for producing more of a mental, cerebral high, and indica has a reputation for contributing more toward its physical high, other factors are more important to consider: THC is the compound given most of the credit for that head high, with CBD takes the credit for marijuana's many proven medicinal benefits, which range vastly from relieving pain, anxiety, migraines, fibromyalgia and even mad cow disease to easing many of the most deleterious symptoms of AIDS, diabetes, epilepsy and Parkinson's disease. These are just a handful of the dozens of ailments marijuana is being prescribed to combat by doctors across the globe and in more than a dozen U.S. states. Cooperatives at medical marijuana dispensaries have been at the forefront of providing CBD-rich cannabis buds and oils for their patients, who undoubtedly appreciate being able to purchase the strain best-suited to ease their particular ailments. This new strain joins others rich in both CBD and THC like Euphoria, Royal Medic, Medical Mass and Danceworld that seek to actually not necessarily downplay cannabis' psychoactive effects in favor of optimizing its healing role, but instead equalize the two. According to the California-based Steep Hill Cannabis Analysis Laboratory, this equalization brings to the cannabis user not just the physically healing aspects, but also the spiritually and psychologically healing benefits as well. There are other strains with very little THC and more CBD than Painkiller XL , but rare are such splendid balances. Producers of this strain say it produces a considerable amount of pain relief, with a mild, relieving mental euphoria. With a flowering time of eight weeks, the Painkiller XL seed can produce 525 to 575 grams per plant indoors. Inside, the dried yield is 400 to 450 grams per plant. Inside, the plants average in height at about 31.5 inche (80 cm); outside, the average height is about 53 inches (135 cm), with harvest time at the end of September. THC: 9% CBD: 9% Yield Indoor: 500-550gr m2 Yield Outdoor: 500-550 grams per plant dried Height Indoor: 60 - 100 cm Height Outdoor: 120 - 150 cm Flowering time: 8 weeks Harvest month: Late September Genetic background: Juanita la Lagrimosa x Royal Highness Type Sativa: 75%; Indica: 25% Effect: Physical, clear high. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-10-20. Week 6 day 3. Late update. The girls are in there final 12 liters autopots and have moved into my newfixed second growroom. The girls is growing fine and have been Fimmed.

Hello growmies! Welcome to week six of An Epsilon Adventure! Massive thanks to both Shogun and Royal Queen Seeds for sponsoring this grow! So here we are at week six and every one of these girls are at a slightly different stage, it is quite fascinating to watch them develop one after the other. Today I made the last adjustment to the light possible. I removed the adjustable hangers and affixed a carabiner which I tightly tied to the top of the tent bar. There is about 1.5 inches of space between the top of the shade and the tallest part of the roof of the tent. Plant 1 is already taller than this, and it looks like plant 6 and maybe even plant 5 are going to join it. It's a madness. I am sure you have already looked at the photos but just in case you do what I do and read the diary first... Here is my assessment at the beginning of week 6: Plant 1: Height: 1st (137cm) - what can I say about this ridiculous plant? Day 36... 137cm tall. I have had to raise the light to as high as it is physically possibly to raise it and it's still not high enough. She is done stretching now, she may add 3-5cm over the next week or so but I don't expect more than that, so her top of her main cola going to have to develop above the level of the light. Nothing I can really do, nothing wise anyway. What a monster plant. Maturation: 4th - early into flower - bud sites developing, pistils just starting to explode. Plant 2: Height: 4th (111cm) - this plant has been there or there abouts as the tallest plant for most of the grow, but she has topped out at 111cm. She will gain some during flower but not much more than a few centimetres. Very impressive plant, loads of bud sites, really big strong secondary branches. This one is going to be colas galore. Maturation: 3rd - well into flower - all white pistils Plant 3: Height: 6th (95cm) For some brief days the tallest plant in the room, she peaked early and is now the "shortest" at "only" 95cm for this "50-70cm" strain. She is utterly dwarfed by four of her five sisters in just about every department, being quite a bit smaller even than plant 4 (although I have removed the most lower nodes from this plant). Compared with her sisters she is almost a runt... except that she is 25cm taller than the strain top-end average and matches the maximal height of the previous tallest Epsilon F1 plant I am aware of. It's not that she is small, actually she's pretty big for an Epsilon F1, it's just that the rest of the girls are on another level altogether. Plants 1, 5 and 6 are all absolute beasts. Maturation: 1st - well into flower - first shades of brown in some pistils. Plant 4: Height: 5th (98cm) although only 3cm taller than plant 3, overall she is a much larger plant. Her secondary nodes are the same height as plant 3. Maturation: 2nd - well into flower - all white pistils Plant 5: Height: 3rd (113cm) - one of the two thick/short girls who have grown at a similar pace all along - she is further ahead than plant 6 but not by much and I think she will probably exceed 120cm this week, though I do not think she will outgrow plant 1 or 6. Maturation: 5th - early into flower - bud sites developing. Plant 6: Height: 2nd (120cm) - my predictions were correct about this girl and her continued growth. I now think she might actually outgrow plant 1, which is quite worrying. Maturation: 6th - early into flower - bud sites forming - by far the least mature plant of the six. ### Week 6 Day 2 23:00 30/7 Photographed. Raised the light. Rotated the plants. Inspected, measured and reported on each plant. ### Week 6 Day 3 23:00 31/7 It has not escaped my attention that the plants that are more advanced into flower have darkened and have some burnt tips. I need to flush them and lay off the base nutes a bit. These plants are just growing and maturing so quickly that I cannot keep up. ### Week 6 Day 5 02:30 2/8 Fertigated 3l of nutrient mix, without either COCO A or B. ### Week 6 Day 6 01:30 3/8 photographed --- Thanks for reading growmies! 👊 ========== Tent: 120cm x 120cm x 180cm Light: 600w HID Elite Dual Spectrum HPS + Angel Wing Reflector Air: 5" duct fan system with carbon filter ~300 m3/hour + RAM 9" floor fan + 4" intake fan Pots: Air Pruner Fabric Pots 30l - UGro XL Coco + horticultural grade perlite (~20%) Seeds supplied by Royal Queen Seeds https://www.royalqueenseeds.com Nutrients supplied by Shogun Fertilisers https://www.shogunfertilisers.com/en ==========

relaxing and enjoying the show almost at max watts SPIDER FARMER SF2000 is now maxed out at 207w , 16"-18" from the plants and I will need to keep up with pruning to allow more air flow and more light to penetrate deeper into the plant. 2, 6" oscillating fans on 100%, may be on low or just one stationary but at this point in the grow air flow is a MUST, specially for the thick, dense vegetation of the OG Kush. trying my hardest to stick with the 4" ventalation til the end of the grow. Right now I have to replace the exhaust ducting due to tiny pin holes leaking more than a bit of light.

This indica can help soothe the minor aches and and will make you feel like you are floating on a cloud after only a few puffs. Mood disorders have also been known to successfully be treated with this strain. Cheese can help regulate feelings of hopelessness and anxiety, with a sudden influx of happiness and a general euphoric state.

📆 Week 13, 4-10 April 2024 4-10 April - Let the plant grow and observed, assessing maturity. 📑 Buds have fattened up and matured. The trichome head colors are 80% milky, 10+% amber, and about 10% clear. All but a few pistil hairs are brown. She has a strong, sweet earth, gassy, berry scent. The plan now is to flush with RO water for a few days leaving lights on the same 12/12hrs schedule but turning power the down to 50% to help cool down the grow just before the cut. From what I understand putting plants in darkness may not be necessary according to a recent suggestion by Dr Bruce Bugbee. This practice he claims halts all plant activity without light. So I’m doing my own comparisons over the next few harvests. It will not hurt/gain much either way. Harvesting techniques occure with some controversy, but the definition of a successful harvest is universal - to grow a plant to maturity that is pest, pesticides (chemical), mold and bud-rot free. 🍶 4 April nutrient solution changed 🍽️ 4 April feeding schedule updated 💧 Using reverse osmosis water with EC/TDS at 0 🐉 Nutrient solution EC .8 at 60 degrees F 🔆 Light power at 90%, DLI 65-70 canopy coverage at 18hrs 😤 Using PYPABL, Air Pump, 400GPH That is it for this week. Thanks for the look, read and stopping by.

I learned a lot this grow. The plant survived which lends to its resilience. It smells mostly skunky with some hints of rubber. Mistakes: 1. Overwatered seedlings 2. Ran unfamiliar nutes 3. Ran an unfamiliar feed method (fertigated instead of top dressed) 4. Gardened based on web description instead of what the plants were communicating to me. 5. Got a seed Successes: 1. They didn't die! 2. Got climate dialed in well 3. No fungus gnats or other pests! 4. Got 2oz total of good dry bud!

👉The plant finally has its own space. I moved it into the center of the tent and have rotated it to get a closer look at things. I have felt like bad things may be lurking on the far side which I had no access to. Fortunately everything looks good. I did find a couple of seeds forming in the tips of a couple of colas. Since then I have been scouring the plant looking for hermies. I haven't found any, but is a large bush and the hermie could be small. Its also possible that I carried some pollen in from outdoors. While all the farmland around me is cows, the strong prevailing winds could possibly have carried a few grains of pollen and those ended up on my clothes. I didn't see any evidence of the buds filling up with seeds, just the 3-4 with the seeds forming right on the tip. I will know for sure when I do the harvest. 👉I may have stuck with the week 8 mix a week too long, so I moved to week 9 for one batch (2.5gallons) then week 10one the next, I switched to week 11 (Ripen) at the end of the week. The plant had lots of crispy shitty looking fingers in the areas at the top of the canopy and in the strongest parts of the lights. I moved the lights up to 26". I have been trimming out the dead crispy leaves and and seeing more of a normal 'fade' pattern now on leaves all around the plant. I have been trimming off those that have faded for the most part. There are still lots of leaves left. The trichomes are seemingly mostly cloudy, I have not seen any amber. The lower areas have mostly clear trichomes. The buds are not 'normal' in structure. They started out normal sized calixs with normal structure buds, but they stopped 'plumping' and most of the calixs became freakishly large. This is very reminiscent of my Gorilla Glue form last year. The buds seemed to be in a state of suspended animation with no new calix's and all pistols red. When I shifted to the week 9 and then 10 mix, some fox-tailing started and some smallish calixs formed. The temps in the tent have been mid 60's at night and some days in the low 70s. This has given some of the colas a little bit of purple color. The plant is frosty as can be with frost extending well out onto even the largest sugar leaves. The smell is generic funky stank, but with a nice pleasant sweet note. The aroma is very strong and when the breezes are moderate to mild the sweet funky stank can be enjoyed outside my house as well (vented directly outside with no filter). 👉I will continue with the ripen mix of solution till harvest day. I will be monitoring the Trichome status looking for mostly cloudy with very few clears. I took a couple of small larf branches two weeks ago and let them dry, did not 'cure' it. Sticky as hell, and when I toked it it gave a nice buzz that was uppy. It wasn't 'intense' like finished cured buds are, but it was stronger than any larf Ive toked before. Larf is usually sort of an 'empty' high for me and hardly worth the effort of lighting it up, this was good enough to give a nice long lasting pleasant buzz. I cant wait to see what the good big buds will be like!

This week the girls have stretched for the last time then the fun will really begin with the buds blowing up. Alaskan purple has the frosty sugar leafs which tells me she will be more potent at this point of the grow cycle. Both of the girls are in good health but Alaskan purple has 2 leafs that look like nutes burn from the feeding last week of the ff nutes, so only distilled water this week to kinda flush her then back to nutes feeding, which will be perfect timing for buds to start coming in. Overall it's rained a lot where I live which has made humidity a problem so I got another dehumidifier for my room to help with that problem other than that this grow is on track for a nice harvest.

Podlewane woda PH 7.0 żeby podnieść PH ziemi, rośliny są przyblokowane ale jestem dobrej myśli, gdyż pomału wraca do prawidłowych wartości Zaczęło się kwitnienie. Warunki są stabilne 25-26C wilgotność 60-65%. Pozdrawiam odwiedzających. Jesli macie jakies uwagi albo propozycje piszcie w komentarzach . Dziekuje :-)

Seem to look a little over watered, probably should have let them root out the blocks a little more before transplant. Also humidity is on the low side but still growing at a fantastic rate. The plant in the middle is getting removed, seems to be the runt of the litter no pun intended

Hey everyone :-). There is not much to tell this week :) A few came to the flowering tent, 2 are still in the vegi phase for 2 days and then come last to the flowering tent :-) The Blue Cheese and the Kosher Tangie Kush smell very good and how they should 😍👍 It will be difficult to choose 2 mums :-). I wish everyone a nice week 👌 Let it grow

We have roots! Baby seedling is growing rapidly. I’m using some pH stabilizing powder in my res along with the hydroguard for now. Will begin light nutes in another week or so.
