Welcome back to our Gary Payton grow diary! As we move into Week 6, our Gary Payton plants are settling well into their new pots and exhibiting strong growth. The decision to let them grow to their full size without topping is proving to be an interesting experiment. Week 6 Highlights: The plants have shown impressive growth following the transplant. Their stems are thickening, and the foliage is becoming denser, indicating healthy and vigorous growth. The roots have continued to develop robustly, aided by the Great White powder applied during the transplant. The plants are well-established in their new 12.5L pots. The introduction of Sugar Royal, Plagron Alga Grow, and Great White into the nutrient schedule is supporting the plants' vegetative growth. The plants are responding well to this regimen. The TrolMaster-controlled 4x4 tent continues to provide an optimal environment, with precise control over light, temperature, and humidity. This setup is crucial for maintaining the plants' health. Upcoming Plans: We will maintain the current nutrient schedule to support ongoing vegetative growth. As the plants continue to grow without topping, we will monitor their height, structure, and overall health. This will help us understand the full potential of the Gary Payton strain when grown to full size. Ongoing adjustments to the TrolMaster system will ensure optimal growing conditions as the plants progress. Stay tuned for more updates as we continue this exciting journey with our Gary Payton plants. Stay lifted, Salokin

The red and purple hues on this girl are a sight to behold, as I upload this part of the grow diary I have already harvested her (stage 1), it was painful to do but I soon got over it! I've enjoyed the surprises she has thrown at me along the way, like growth rate, hight, her sensitivity to environment changes during veg but that was only due to not reading the smaller print and not doing a bit of genetics homework and more "I want to grow Blue Cheeses".. She's a proper smelly lady and I actually didn't like the scent (never thought I'd say) that she gave off when rubbing against the main stem and branches whilst LSTing. Conversely the flower was yummy, a piercing sweet blueberry note followed by the chonky cheese stink, a definite "Grow again Jane" so far and any I've not even smoked any yet!.

The plants are doing super well under nearly perfect conditions. Unfortunately I didn't have so many pictures

Week 10 for Wockesha she is finally at her end. All phenos look beautiful with different tones of purple through out the bud. All the Pheno had dense buds. Some phenos had better frost factor and some had better weight factor. Will do a whole plant hang dry for 2-3 weeks and then to a jar cure!

great:) everything is going well, much better than the first attempt:) the air extraction at the top has been redone, and a co2 bag has been inserted - the girl likes it:) I will put the scrog on in the coming days :) good luck.

Not sure which weeks entirely, didnt put much effort into Veg, i topped all of them twice, did some LST and Supercropping, which accidently broke like 3-4 stems but they healed up nicely. Total of 6 Weeks Veg

The plant is producing decent buds with the classic Mimosa/Tangie/orange Terps. I've reduced the light cycle to 11 hours and dimmed the lamp to 85% to achieve lower temperatures and accelerate the plant's ripening process. The top leaves are receiving about 850 PPFD. Nutrient levels were significantly reduced this week.

Day 77. Maybe a bit early, but no space and one Smoothie went for a date with bud rot ;))) didn't want to loose that nice top. Very frosty, nice gassy smell surrounded by fruits. Day 82. Second girl is down. Both small as you see, but with few branches will produce seed packaging cover type plant. Maybe second got some purple fade ... First was very nice by structure. Day 85. First went to jar. How lovely it sparkles and smells !!! Solid strain, even being so small by structure. Day 89. Second is in jars too ! Happy Growing !!!

Sherbert mimosa are struggling along and going purple 💜 bit cold here lately, starting to fatten up a bit now, the baby photos are growing fast but need repoting. Happy growing guys 💜💚💪

Flower Week 2 Day 14 to 20 - 4/1 to 4/7 Simply watching the stretch from this point. Defoliation is needed by day 20 (4/07) so I removed all but the top 1 or 2 fan leaf sets as well as a few of the lowest branches. The idea here being that I want to mostly lolipop the colas and allow more airflow/light into the center. Feed this week was an auto pot reservoir feed now at 700ppm total before add-ins. I used 175ppm Veg concentrate mix (recipe week 2) and 525ppm Bloom concentrate mix (recipe week 5). However, I also added 1ml/gal of CaliMagic (General Hydroponics 1-0-0) and ph balance this week was for 5.8 where Io plan to maintain it until harvest. Video Post defoliation Next week nutes will increase in Bloom mix again but also eliminate Veg mix. Feed will again be 700ppm before add-ins with 5.8ph before feeding.

Little bit early on this week but as I’m travelling to Amsterdam today I’d like to get it updated today. Heatwave has finally gone, temps dialled in perfectly now. Hopefully with the temps dropped they will start to go purple for that bag appeal! Added another inside the flower tent and starting a separate diary on it. Don’t miss out on that one that strain is 🔥

18/10 - comienza su quinta semana en etapa de floracion. Su evolución fue muy rapida, apenas entro en flora cambio totalmente la planta. Los cocos están perfectos, super resinosos con olor muy fuerte. El banco de semillas recomienda que este en flora de 8 a 9 semanas. Seguramente la deje hasta la semana 8. Esta bastante avanzada. No tuve problemas en ninguna etapa. Sin dudas es una genetica que volvera a cultivar. Cabe aclarar que esta planta genera mucha resina por que es ideal para extracciones.

This plant is in the far back corner so it's hard to get good pics of it. Its the most stretchy plant this run but it looks like its putting on some nice frosty buds. I spread the plants out a little this week so they get better light and air flow. Other than that I haven't done anything besides keep the reservoir full. Still pumping nutrients 1 minute on 20 minutes off. They are getting .5 tsp maxibloom per gallon. Not going to run any boosters this round. They dont look like they want or need it.

Looks like growth has stopped and the work is going into the flowers. Some leaf tip burn but in not going to change anything, I could fuss and look at the TDS, but I've always got myself in a tis and mucked things up. I'd say this is looking to be an average yield. Not the smallest, not the largest!
