Welcome back to Fat Yappa's ladies and gentlemen, its been another mad week in the garden. This week these girls have began to produce some serious quantities of bud sites, but the transition into flower has not been without its adversity to be conquered. Gone is the humidifier, and the battle with humidity has commenced. All of a sudden the three larger Banner ladies, together with their Wedding Cheesecake Fastbuds cousin in Coco Coir have levelled up from 2.5L per plant ever four days, to 2.5L every two days, which has increased the humidity substantially, and this week has mostly been a battle to get the RH down to 50% or below, which has meant the tent door has been open as much as situations have allowed for that, the grow tent heater has been turned off, and my central heating has been ramped back up to 21c in an endeavour to dry the air some what, and the room in which the grow tent is situated has seen the addition of an old but reasonable dehumidifier on loan from my parents. I have also had to put some further serious thought into air circulation, and the T6 has been ramped up to level 6 as a constant, the intake fan has been increased, and Ive lowered one of my 40w fans closer to canopy level. The other 40w fan is situated in the top back corner, opposite the carbon filter to try and prevent stale air from building up in there, and I did try and lower this one also, but the way I have it wired, the plug flex would only allow me to gain a couple of inches. Circulation has improved, but is still not ideal across the entire canopy and this has caused some anxiety in regard to humidity and mould etc. To counteract this, and now that bud sites are developing, gaining a clear vision of which fan leaves could be removed, there have been a few defoliation session this week. Nothing major, maybe a couple of handfuls off the the older Bruce Banners, yet compared to the Wedding Cheesecake in Coco, which stands at a whopping 28 inches, towering over everything else in the tent by almost a foot now, despite the LST, which is much less of a leafy specimen and has only lost a dying leaf or two. In terms of LST, I have continued to perform the technique two or three times a week on all the plants, yet have stopped on the four larger plants in the past few days as I fear their stems are becoming too rigid for it now, and to further add to this, there is literally no more space for them to go besides up. The Wedding Cheesecake in Coco is a concern, with it being so high above the rest of the canopy, but there is literally nowhere else to tie her down. I will continue on the smaller Wedding Cheesecake, growing in living soil, and the Bruce Banner runt for another week or so, which at the moment I would describe as being in pre flower, and seem to be about a week behind the other four, until I feel the same fears in regard to the technique damaging them. As hinted at above, space is becoming an issue, housing these six big autoflowers in a 4x4, and the five plants that were originally intended would have been more than adequate to fill the space, and things have become so tight in there that I have had to remove the intake fan and place it on the outside of the tent, but the increase in sound from this has left me dissatisfied with this as a permanent solution. The increase in intake and out take fans, and the edition of the noisy old dehumidifier has caused noise to become a slight issue, but I will be ordering a good, modern, efficient 20L dehumidifier tomorrow and hopefully this will aid significantly toward solving a number of this weeks issues. With most adequate timing, the click from the timer on the sf4000 signals lights out on another day in Fat Yappa's Garden, its time for me to zip these ladies up and tuck them in for the night, so I must bid you all farewell for another week, and wish that all is growing well for you too

7 weeks later and she's flowering nicely, not too much verticle growth but the buds are getting bigger every day. Stoked! Nothing new, might make another compost tea up this week. I'm giving them 1L of water every 2nd day, 500mL top feed and 500mL bottom feed. Until next week friends, thanks for checking in.

Through week 2 of the stretch and it’s a bloody mess of super crops with about 8”of headroom to the lights.😂. Bit of a disaster definitely suggests a need to lower the table height slightly. My own errogance wins again. I know better than not to top or fim under these conditions, just figured we’d get better control on an extremely short veg. Cycle. Wayyy off there lol. Still another stretch week to go which means they’ll be more cropping to follow with it as well. Is what it is and we’ll have to make due. No issues with the plants whatsoever yet👍. Background This cycle of clones represents all the potential of this F1 line of WalkerBerry OG. Bred by myself over the last couple of years. This genetic shows excellent hybrid vigour, incredibly stable nutrition requirements to date and an eclectic mix of long and short internodal spacing bu specimen. We know we have indica and sativa dominant traits spread evenly across the 6 available clones. Now it’s just a matter of seeing them run out under controlled and pollen free conditions. We’ve labelled each plant and it’s resulting seed accordingly. Once we get to the F2 run, we’ll hopefully be able to isolate down to 2-3 phenos if the bud is any good. From there, who knows. It’d be great to get to a finished, stable generation that would be fem worthy but that could be a very long way off. For now - we’ll focus on this line and see where it goes🤞🤞.

Still Hot AF! We’re at 100F everyday. All except the jelly rancher seem fine with it. The banana mango isn’t bothered. It’s interesting the heat difference on strains. All were planted the same time July 24, for the first time high today will be 90! Not 100! Shooting up like rockets! July 27th - supercropped the banana mango and it’s crazy wide and like a huge solar array! It rained yesterday! Real, soaking, non-drought rain. The plants loved it…

Bienvenidos cultivadores de marihuana clandestinos, y también, a los que tienen la fortuna de no serlo!🖐️👨‍🌾... todo por la causa! Séptima semana desde semilla de esta gitanilla, hermana de 3M ▼ Andalusian Gypsy, una cepa racial a tener en cuenta! Grandes acontecimientos, debido a la baja, por nacer macho, de una de mis plantas de la carpa principal, ahora esta gitanilla enjoyada ocupa un lugar de primera división y pasa a competir con otras siete plantas cultivadas en macetas de 11L, la gitanilla la cultivo en una maceta de 7L, pero ella está dispuesta a demostrar lo que vale, al tiempo he cambiado el horario a 12/12h... a jugar! Esta semana la planta ha estirado casi otros 20cm, las ramas son muy recias y yo la estoy intentando domar con ataduras por todos lados, pero esta gitana está dispuesta a mostrar toda la rebeldía que lleva en la savia. El consumo de agua es brutal y a la planta le encanta comer variado, yo cocino para ella con pasión. Bueno, como los veranos en GD son bastante aburridos hoy incluyo un video musical y que seguramente los antepasados de esta gitanilla bailaron... Vente conmigo gitana! Hasta la próxima... SALUDOS A TODOS!! ================================= Info de la cepa GYPSY KUSH: https://en.seedfinder.eu/strain-info/Gypsy_Kush/Kannabia_Seeds/ "una variedad única con un duende flamenco que no se puede aguantar y que solo puede venir del sur..."

Hello fellow gardners! I fucked up this week. Not sure how i managed to duplicate week10 and then remove week 11. Please forgive me and my new phone for this. W10 was not so interesting. But it sads me to say that all documentation from that week is lost. I have also noticed that i overfed them a bit this week, but they should be just fine. Starting to feel a wonderfull smell from gelato. I Will upload a full rewiev from day 1 - last day of cureing once i get the time. Ive noticed buds growing on a leaf branch, is that normal? There is a picture uploaded.

🌿 BHO EXTRACTION & CURING DIARY — INTRODUCTION Welcome, my friends — growers, learners, supporters, skeptics, and the simply curious. 💚 This space is dedicated to one thing only: honest documentation. This diary is a living journal focused specifically on BHO extraction, purging, curing, and cold curing, documented over time, across multiple batches and extraction runs, using a consistent method and philosophy. Here, I will be sharing: • different BHO extraction runs • different batches and materials • different curing timelines • different cold cure expressions • and how time, temperature, and patience shape the final medicine Each entry you see here may come from a different extraction run, but all are made using: • the same extraction method • the same safety standards • the same respect for the plant • and the same refusal to rush the process This diary is not about hype. It’s not about chasing trends or textures. It’s about understanding. ⸻ WHAT THIS DIARY IS (AND IS NOT) This diary is: • educational • transparent • process-focused • built slowly over time This diary is not: • a tutorial for beginners • a shortcut guide • a recommendation for unsafe practices Everything shared here is for educational and documentation purposes only, aimed at helping people understand why different BHO textures exist, how curing affects stability, and what patience actually does to medicine. ⸻ ❄️ WHY EXTRACTION & CURING ARE DOCUMENTED TOGETHER Extraction does not end when the solvent leaves. Purging, curing, and cold curing are extensions of the extraction itself. The final expression — waxy, crumble, sap, full-melt — is written by time, not by force. That’s why this diary will continue to evolve: • new extractions will be added • new curing timelines will be documented • new textures will appear • and comparisons will be made honestly and clearly Nothing is hidden. Nothing is rushed. ⸻ 🌱 HOW TO READ THIS DIARY Each sample or entry represents: • one extraction run • one curing path • one moment in time Some entries may look similar. Some may look completely different. That’s the point. Same method. Different runs. Different expressions. ⸻ 🌈 WHAT’S COMING NEXT As this diary continues, you’ll see: • additional BHO batches • longer cold cures • side-by-side comparisons • deeper dives into texture evolution • and real observations, not assumptions This is a long-form project. It grows the same way good medicine does — slowly. Thank you for being here, for reading with an open mind, and for respecting the process. More to come. Always. 🍯 SAMPLE 01 — WAXY / FULL-MELT EXPRESSION (01) This first expression is the one that leaned clearly toward a waxy, buttery, full-melt profile, while keeping the same golden color spectrum as the rest of the batch. At first glance, what stands out is the uniform gold tone — no darkening, no oxidation, no cloudy patches. The color remains consistent throughout, which already tells a story of a clean extraction and a proper long cure. 🔍 Visual & Physical Characteristics • Soft, waxy exterior with a satin / semi-gloss finish • Oil separation visible on the surface, especially when slightly warmed • Interior is drier and more structured, showing light aeration • Holds shape on the tool but melts immediately on contact with heat • Very easy to scoop, fold, and stretch What’s interesting here — and something many people miss — is that the oil separation is not a flaw. On the contrary, it’s a sign that: • terpenes are still active and mobile • cannabinoids have stabilized during cure • the matrix is alive and expressive This is exactly what a properly cured mixed-spectrum wax should look like. Why This Texture Happened This waxy expression likely came from a combination of: • minimal agitation early in the cure • balanced terpene retention • slow THCa nucleation • gentle post-scrape handling Even though it comes from the same run as the other samples, the chemistry chose this path — and I let it be. No forcing, no whipping, no rushing. 👃 Aroma & Flavor This one is LOUD — in the best way. • bright upfront notes • layered sweetness • earthy depth underneath • lingering resinous finish On low-temp dabs, the flavor spreads across the palate instead of peaking all at once. You don’t get a single dominant note — you get movement. 🌬️ Melt & Consumption This is true full-melt behavior: • melts clean with no residue • smooth on the lungs • fast onset but not aggressive • very controlled, medicinal effect Perfect for: • flavor-chasing • daytime to balanced evening use • low-temperature dabs • anyone who appreciates terpene expression over brute force 🧠 Important Note Even though this sample looks softer and more “oily” on the surface, it is fully purged, fully cured, and fully stable. 🧀 SAMPLE 02 — DRY / CRUMBLE FULL-MELT Four-Month Cold Cure Expression (02) This second expression comes from a different extraction run and a different batch, processed independently — but using the same extraction method, the same philosophy, and the same safety standards explained throughout this diary. While Sample 01 and Sample 02 are not from the same run, they are the result of the same technique applied consistently over time, allowing a clear comparison of how curing duration and natural stabilization shape the final expression. This batch was allowed to cold cure for four full months, double the time of Sample 01. What time did here is not subtle. This sample naturally evolved into a drier, crumble-leaning structure, while maintaining the same golden color spectrum and true full-melt behavior. ⸻ 🔍 Visual & Physical Characteristics • Dry, brittle texture that breaks cleanly by hand • Thin, flaky plates with sharp edges • Matte-to-light-sparkle surface (microcrystalline structure) • No greying, no darkening, no oxidation • Warm, consistent gold tones throughout The crumble forms are not whipped, forced, or mechanically altered. This structure is purely the result of time, temperature, and molecular organization during a long, undisturbed cold cure. ⸻ ❄️ What Cold Curing Does (And Why Time Matters) Cold curing is the process of allowing an extract to stabilize slowly at low temperatures, without agitation and without added heat. Over time: • residual gases fully dissipate • cannabinoids reorganize into a more crystalline structure • terpenes bind, settle, or slowly migrate • moisture and volatility stabilize naturally At four months, this batch clearly shows: • advanced THCa crystallization • reduced surface oil migration • increased structural rigidity • extremely clean and predictable melt behavior Nothing was rushed. Nothing was pushed. This is patience doing the work. ⸻ Purging & Stability Notes This batch was: • fully purged before curing • then allowed to off-gas naturally over several months • never reheated • never aggressively reworked The result is a concentrate that is: • chemically stable • mechanically dry • aromatically refined • exceptionally smooth on melt Time is the final purge. ⸻ 👃 Aroma & Flavor Profile Compared to Sample 01, this expression leans: • deeper • more grounded • more “hash-forward” The high notes are still present, but they arrive later. The flavor unfolds slowly, with a heavier base and a longer, more settled finish. Think: • less brightness • more depth • less movement • more weight ⸻ 🌬️ Melt & Effects Despite the dry crumble appearance, this is true full-melt: • liquefies cleanly • leaves no residue • produces no harshness • delivers very controlled vapor Effects lean toward: • full-body relaxation • pain relief • evening / nighttime use • grounding and calm Same method — different expression. ⸻ 🧠 Important Reminder Crumble does not mean: • lower quality • over-purged • terpene-less • or harsh In this case, it means fully matured through time. Different run. Same method. Same color spectrum. Same melt. More time. ⸻ 🌈 CLOSING REFLECTION — CONSISTENT METHOD, DIFFERENT EXPRESSIONS Sample 01 (2-month cold cure) shows movement, aroma, and surface oil expression. Sample 02 (4-month cold cure) shows structure, depth, and crystalline stability. Neither is better. Neither is worse. They are simply different chapters written by time, using the same language of patience and respect. This is why I don’t rush medicine. This is why I let chemistry speak. And this is why patience will always outperform speed.

Be a giver, and the universe will give back in ways you could never imagine. 💚 Growers love to all 💚 📸 P.S. – The Eye Behind the Lens All photos in this diary (for now — except for the ones showing the camera, which I took with an iPhone) are taken with a Sony A6700 paired with a Sony full-frame macro lens and a few more. Photography is part of the story — it’s how we share the fine textures, the glow, and the quiet details that words can’t always capture. I’ve also started experimenting with photo stacking — a technique where multiple images, each taken at a slightly different focus point, are layered together to create one perfectly sharp image from front to back. It’s not digital enhancement or AI; it’s pure photography — a way to reveal the plant’s beauty in microscopic depth, from trichome to petal. You’ll even see a few shots of "ghost me" capturing the shots — camera, lens, setup — because every grow deserves not just to be cultivated, but documented like art.

Day 64, 22nd of November 2021: Hi there! Here we go..... so basically pistils are appearing stronger this is the 2nd weeks since they started producing pre flowers. The plants getting a bit light might be some air circulation problem? However they look good and of course closer to the end the gettin' older so the leaves also die. Set up and timing is the same since flower season started. ViparSpectra XS2000 is on full power which is 240W so 100% capacity. Ventilation: 12 hours period when the lamp is on it switches 1 hour on and after one hour off mostly to keep the temperature and of course because of fresh air flow. When the lamp is off it switches on in every 2 hours for 15 min at the same time with the extraction fan. The extraction fan is on 12 hours when the lamp is, and then it switches on in every 2 hours for 30 min. That's all a bit more water for them from today also. Humidity quite the same approx 50%, temperature as well approx 26-27 Celsius. Fertilization remains the same since last week, the BioBizz family raised up to be 2ml/L each so it is like 2ml/L of BioGrow, 2ml/L of BioBloom, 2ml/L of TopMax... see the ratio above. The schedule of the fertilization has not changed happnes 2x a week except epsom salt just 1x a week.
