After drying, the hydro plant's bud smelled a little different. Considering the small amount and the bud rod that was cut away previously, I didn't want to risk anything and threw it away. So the harvest is just about the soil plant. I dried the whole plant except larger fan leaves. As this was an outdoor-ish grew I don't have any specialised equipment. It just had to dry in the room, which averaged 24°C and 60% humidity, probably not ideal. After 10 days it was trimmed and finally weighed. Might still be a little wet though. Final dry weight was 42g, after weighing in wet and untrimmed at 294g.

Leaves started to be more and more yellow. In fact, I don't know why. The nutrients I keep based on the Plagron table. I have few theories. Lack of Nitrogen, Lack of Calcium, End of the life cycle. Who knows. I will add a bit more nutrients.

Die Blue Dream zieht eine eher länglichere Blüteform entlang der Internioden. Die Blätter färben sich wie angenommen in ein schönes Purple/Blue, was ihrem Namen nun alle Ehre gebührt. Die Trichome haben stark zugelegt und dass Aroma hat sich definitiv von sumpfig/skunkig hin zu einem leicht fruchtig und doch scharf aromatisch und eher Erdig hin entwickelt. Ich denke der Ertrag hält sich eher in Grenzen und dennoch ist die Pflanze ein absoluter Hingucker und zieht einen in den Bann. 🍵🌎🍇💚

Ladies are looking happy lots of stretching and bud development underway. Will be an exciting week. Watching for calcium deficiency. Noticed symptoms displaying as big stretch was hitting. Wondering if this is a common auto trait. Had a similar issue growing with amended soil last grow. Flower seems to have come on slow, was thinking it was me and my training but I have a feeling it's a genetic thing. Looked thru many diaries and FR seems to run long sometimes. Check questions for more info about this. Added a second SCROG on day 6. Had a amazing 8.5" vertical growth this week. Sooo many bud tops. It's going to be beautiful!

my dry and cure style is this: 4 days of hanging upside down to get water activity lower to around 0.6 in 50% humidity and 26 C temp (i know its a little high but we are in a hot summer right now and i cant get it lower even with air conditioner) and then after 4 days of drying i remove leaves and stalks, trim buds and move them to jar for the rest of their life :D . and in the first 4 days of curing i open the jar door and let hem get some fresh air in the jar for about 5 minutes and close the jar door again, after 4 days of curing like that buds are smokable but they will get better as they getting cured about 1 month. buds are one of the hardest as fucking rocks type of buds! very dense , compact , sticky , smelly , amazing at every aspect growing stage was 56 days and flowering stage was 75 days total (harvested tops at day 64th) the total weight of dry buds was : (plant #1 & #3 top buds 56 G + lower buds 22 G ) 78 G + (plant #2 top buds 47 G + lower buds 18 G ) 55 G + (plant #4 top buds 120 G + lower buds 67 G ) 187 G = 367 G

Hello guys Welcome 🙂 Today we are at the end of week 11 from seed with this five , KALINI ASIA 🕉️🎋 Like you probably already know.. This diary it's for the Zamnesia Spring Cup 🏆 I'm growing all seeds Zamnesia has provide us for try to show how this strain can grow in different ways. The substrate will be the same light-mix soil mix with cocco and some one with humus The nutrients and the cultivation techniques will be different for each one So , I have reported down below what I do and I will do every week for the next few months.. The 5 ways 🌲🌳🌴🌵🎄 PS (Things I have and I still use in flowering , I have put for all five down below 👇, because are mostly the same) K # ​​1 🌿 {BLOOM n°5} Final height= 30cm Is the lady where I have use all the things ZAMNESIA was provide to us for free👌💯 ( I will spend more words about it when I post the harwest) _11l ZAMNESIA-POT _70g MONSTER-MIX _60%light-mix soil/30%cocco/10%perlite _mycorrhizae She and her sister K # 3 are mostly identical, maybe she's a little more low in heightnes but not to much The flowers increase in size day by day 🚀 Unfortunally this lady and K # 3 dosen't shows any purple-pink colors, like the other three components of the family.. But it's fine right this..for me is better this situation because I can compare the difference at the end 😉👌 She also starts to increase the trichomes production🔥 And a little vit of aroma is coming.. We will see The other things I have use in this last seven days I will put down below 👇 K#2 🌿 {BLOOM n°5} Final height= 30cm For this girl I have use different diet.. _11l smart-pot _Living Soil (my High-Brix formula) _mycorrhizae This one she's growing in my personal Living soil (High-Brix recipe) that I have use and I still use right now with her and other plants in different diaries.. And I think to continue to use it for a long time more Always comes out somnthing of 🔥 And to be honest , in the beginning of this adventure , I was sure that the Kalini Asia grow in to it can shows her true DNA And In fact , she's coming out purple-pink and with a very lovley and unique aroma 🤩 Like you can see in pictures , her leafs starts to decrease in color and they already becoming a nice yellow.. Auto flush , like as always when I grow in Living Soil 💪 She knows for imself what's the best for her.. I have just to watch and create the right environment.. But we will see better in a couple of weeks if my Living soil works right even with this amazing strain 😎 Like the other sisters , the micro life/nutrients/stimulator I have use in this last seven days I have put down below 👇 K#3 🌿 {BLOOM n°5} Final height= 35cm With this girl I have use.. _11l plastic-pot _20gMONSTER-MIX + 70g guano kalong + 25g kelp kalong + some organic nutrients/stimulator _mycorrhizae In the last few weeks of vegetation and the first two of flowering, she was appears most vigourous in growing that her two sisters in 11l pot.. But now she looks a little less bigger in buds size , but not to much.. She's almost identical in everything with her sister K#1 , but the nutrients I have using are in part different We will see at the end 😉 Things I have use this week down below 👇 K#4 🌿 {BLOOM n°6} Final height= 40cm The little one of the family..but maybe the most resinous for now 💪 Whit her I have using.. _5l air-pot _30g MONSTER-MIX _mycorrhizae Like K#2 and K#3 , lucky , she's showing some beautiful color Mostly dark pink , but I don't know if the pictures helps you to understand at the best how lovley she's This week she was increase a lot in a bud size and she also starts to smell amazing 😃 Difficult to describe Love it 💚 And she's probably the ones with the most trichomes density 🔥 I think she's ready in no more then 19/21 days , maybe before 📆 Other nutrients/stimulator I have put down below 👇 K#5 🌿 {BLOOM n°7} Final height= 60cm With this beauty one I have using _7l geotextile pot ( not completely full , about 5,5/6 liters ) _40g MONSTER-MIX _mycorrhizae I don't know exactly if what I will say right now it's the true But I personally think she's definetly the phenotypes to looking for The smell it's absolutly insane Very complex and intense , mostly on a fruit side with earthy tones I really hope to find a true Kush effect with unique taste The trichomes are not to much dense , probably due the high temperature But she appears almost healty enough and happy The leafs starts to comes purple , especially the ones upper for the most , and a couple of it already died after finish the nutrients inside Flowers are just awesome in my opinion Also , like the K#2 and K#4 , probably the pictures don't showing at the best how she's lovley But maybe I will transporter her outside in the last week , under the sun light , for show you her gifts 😉 I think she will be mature at the best in max 14 days I can't wait to taste her buds They are somnthing really special ❣️ Now I have reported over here the other things I have using in this last seven days , apart the regular water I have give every day for each ones 💧 K#1 / K#2 / K#3 _5ml molasses each one _2,5ml rinhoskin each one _2,5ml topmax each one _3ml sensizym each one For the other two I have always decrease a little bit in this weeks, but things are still the same But for K#5 it's from more then one week I have starting give her just regular water plus some enzymes.. And I will continue to do it for a couple of days more ,and then I will give only still water for the last ten days So , for K#4 this week I have using K#4 _4ml molasses _2ml rinhoskin _2ml topmax _2ml sensizym For K#5 _2ml sensizym _💧 Like the all ten weeks before also this one has passed easy Plants are always in happy moode and me with they 😄 For now I can say she's a really good genetics , no doubt 🙌 And if you find a dark pink-purple phenotype, do what I have not doing.. Clone it 💯💯👌👌 It's somnthing special and unique.. Vigourous , productive with beautiful colors and very complex terps profile.. In a few months I will definitely give you a better idea.. So , stay tuned 😉🤙 Thank you so much for stopping here 🙏 Hope you was enjoyed like me 😎 See you next.. Ciao ✌️ 🇮🇹

I RAN INTO SOME TROUBLE WITH MY WATER SOURCE.. I USE RAIN WATER AND IT DIDNT RAIN FOR OVER A MONTH SO I USED RAIN FROM LAST YEAR THAT I HAVE IN RAIN BARRELS AND IT IS SHIT NOW. I HAD MAJOR PROBLEMS WITH ALMOST EVERY PLANT BUT IT FINALLY RAINED HERE AND IT MADE A HUGE DIFFERENCE. ITS ONLY BEEN 2 DAYS AND ALMOST EVERY PLANT IS STARTING TO GREEN UP AND LOOK BETTER SO IM HOPING ITS MY FIX SORRY TO EVERYONE WHO TRIES TALKING TO ME....I STILL CANT TALK TO ANYONE BECAUSE I TRIED CHANGING MY EMAIL ON HERE AND IT MESSED EVERYTHING UP. I CANT LIKE ANYTHING OR COMMENT ON ANYTHING. THE WORST IS I CANT JOIN CONTESTS😪😢😭 FINALLY STARTING ANOTHER GROW. MY BACK HAS BEEN FUCKED FOR MONTHS. CANT WAIT!!!! IM DOING 24 AUTOFLOWERS FOR THIS GROW AND IN 5 WEEKS IM STARTING ABOUT 20 FEMINISED PHOTOPERIODS IN MY 5X5 WITH A TSW2000 SO THEY CAN BE READY TO MOVE INTO THE 8X8 TENT AFTER THE AUTOFLOWERS ARE FINISHED. HOPE MY TIMING IS GOOD🤞🤞🤞🤞 LOL STRIVE NUTRIENTS IS THE BEST IVE EVER USED. A MUST TRY AND I BUY IT MYSELF. GOT A SAMPLE LAST YEAR AND ITS SO GOOD I BOUGHT MORE. ITS A 2 PART POWDER NUTRIENT THAT DISSOLVES IN MINUTES AND YOU MIX THE SAME STRENGTH OF THE 2 PART NUTRIENTS FROM WEEK 2 UNTIL THEY ARE FINISHED (BESIDES THE FLUSH), NO MORE BULLSHIT OF SWITCHING TO BLOOM FERTILIZER. THATS MY FAVORITE THING BESIDES THE RESULTS. CHECK EM OUT AND BELIEVE EVERYTHING YOU READ BECAUSE ITS NO BULLSHIT, AWESOME FRIENDLY AND HONEST PEOPLE

Week 2: Light Struggles, First Adjustments & the Patience Test Update: 14.03.25 Good morning, grow fam! Week 2 of my photoperiod journey is running – a mix of challenges and small wins. Here’s a look at the early days of my Blueberry and Durban Poison seedlings. Current Observations: Light Deficiency & Stretching Stems The first days post-germination were intense: The seedlings developed extremely long, thin stems (check the photos!), a clear sign of insufficient light. Since I’m intentionally avoiding extra lighting to save resources, I had to improvise: - Tray Rotation: I rotate the seedling tray multiple times a day to ensure even exposure to the weak March sunlight. - DIY Support: For the most stretched seedlings, a bent wire acts as a crutch to prevent them from collapsing. Interestingly, the tomato and cucumber plants in the same tray show no issues – their stems stay compact. Seems like veggies are better adapted to low-light conditions than cannabis! Nutrients & Alfa Boost: An Experiment Even though my Biobizz Lightmix should provide enough nutrients for the first weeks, I tested a sample of Alfa Boost (freebie from the grow shop) during watering. The product claims to boost roots and stress resistance – perfect for my light-stressed babies. So far, no negative reactions, but no explosive growth either. Slow Growth – No Cause for Concern The plants are growing just millimeters per day, but that’s okay. My focus is on building sturdy, resilient plants, not speed. Once days get longer and sunnier, growth should pick up. They’ll stay indoors until mid-May anyway – plenty of time to bulk up. Next Steps & Tweaks - Transplanting in 1–2 Weeks: Once the first true leaf pairs emerge, they’ll move to small pots with my Biobizz All-Mix blend. - First Topping Soon: Once the plants hit 4–5 nodes, I’ll top them to encourage bushier growth. Week 2 Takeaway: Patience is key! Even in suboptimal conditions, I trust Dutch Passion’s resilient genetics. Fingers crossed for greener progress next week. My goal is to stabilize the grow under the given conditions. Until then: Stay curious, enjoy the journey – stay blazing 😉 Smoking_Joe_Frazier

Tak a máme tu konec, díky hombres za support bylo to supr první kolo. Trochu mě vylítla teplota na půdě tak vršky jsou sušší ale spodky mokřejší, rovnou jsem to jebnul do sklenic a vlhkost po jednom dni ve sklenici 54% asi koupím ty sáčky na 62%, ale uvidím jak si to sedne. Peace

The colas keep filling out and getting longer and smell amazing. It's been warmer and more humid outside so RH in the tent has gone up. I added a mini air purifier I wasn't using (no ozone) as an extra precaution against mildew. I woke up in the middle of the night on Monday and realized that the air purifier has a light on it so I got up and turned it off. I was worried that I'd messed with the dark cycle so I left them in darkness for an extra 2.5 hours. My cool tube fan fell off the next day, onto my plants. They look undamaged. I taped it up again and set up a safety wire like the filter and fan have. I need a better solution for next cycle. The buds are beautiful and having an even canopy is great. It's hard not thinking about the end result. The buds still look small compared to the big colas of a traditional grow shape but there's still a couple weeks left. There is some bud formation under the canopy but it's a little light. The tops of the colas are fat but short on the 7 gallon plants and taller and thinner on the 5 gallon plants. I did leave a couple offshoots on that developed in late veg/early flower. By the time I caught them, I felt they were too mature to chop and I thought they helped fill out certain areas. But those ones have fewer bud sites and tend to be just a cola on a branch that shoots straight up which is still good. I do wonder if less crowding would have given me bigger buds, but I think it has more to do with pot size. This is week 7 of flower. I switched to half strength nutes and started adding fancy molasses (18ml/gallon). I broke my pH tester and didn't replace my SCROG net until after I finally watered the next day so the canopy changed a bit. I took the opportunity to rearrange the plants a bit. Crystal formation increased a crazy amount the day after I started adding molasses. I think I'll keep adding molasses even during flush. The CBD Blue Shark has this really beautiful white glow. The pistils are very strong and white and the trichromes reflect back this silver light. The leaves are a nice semi-glossy dark green which gives great contrast. It's just a beautiful plant. The Wedding Cake has a lot more colour with lots of red hairs and some yellow tones in the pistils. The fan leaves are more prone to yellowing and death than the leaves on the CBD BS. The buds seem more structurally dense and are really working on these pyramid shapes that look like delicious orange and green snacks. The buds on the CBD Blue Shark are more symmetrical and kind of otherworldly like some kind of sea creature.

Good week, buds are just starting to get bigger, slower than the other strains I have in the same tent. Getting frosty, no complaints here.

11/22 Day 31 from flip. Today is the first day that I took a tape measure from the lights to the topmost part of the canopy and I haven’t seen a change. I’ll check again tomorrow but I’m really hoping the stretch is finally done. I still have about 10 inches of space between the lights and canopy so I think I’ll be ok with that. I took the chance to do what is hopefully a near final defoliation of a few leaves and some smaller sucker branches that won’t amount to much. Everything still looks super healthy, no red anywhere on any stems and no discoloration on the leaves. Everything is spot on. Light adjusted to 840 PAR / 36.3 DLI. 11/25 Day 34 from flip. I made some adjustments to my nute mix to be more firmly at 1.3 EC, which means I’ve added some additional nutes into the mix. I also tested runoff EC and discovered things were spiking a bit more than I’d like. So I mixed up a few batches of my new mix and I’ve been feeding every few hours to flush things out a little bit. I’ve brought it down from 1.9 to 1.5 so far after this. I may finally need to break down and set up some timers to feed multiple times throughout the day. Obviously once a day is not getting done right now. 11/26 Day 35 from flip. I finally got the timer hooked up to my pump to begin automatic watering. For now, I have it set to water at noon for a minute when the lights come on, a 2 minute pause to let that settle, and then 30 seconds more to make sure both are fully saturated. The second fertigation event will be at 6:00 for 45 seconds, and then right before lights off another 45 seconds. I’ll have to keep an eye on it to see if I need to adjust any more for now. I haven’t adjusted the lights since last time, but the latest reading is 885 PAR / 38.2 DLI at the highest point of the canopy. It’ll stay there for now.

Hi@all, it is the end of the fifth week, I started some low-stress training to bend the lower branches towards the light. It worked really well. Three days ago, I topped the "head". I hope she's recovering from it in the next days/week. So far, everything seems to be going well and it’s really enjoyable. 😎🌿 My only concern is the 40x40 cm tent – I think it might be a bit tight in there... Greetings ✌️

The first part of this week has been great. It's cool but dry. There's was no dew on day 2. It's sunny with low humidity during the day. The plants are feeding on the built up nutes in the soil. I did not feed the listed formula although that is what I use prior to the flush week and thought I'd include it. We missed two projected rains and received one very light rain in the early a.m. hours of day 6 of this week. This was a great week for the girls. The rain didn't materialize like the forecast. We still had p.m. hours humidity in the 90s and cool nights, but these girls handled it. Only one has shown susceptibility to powdery mildew. Overall this is a beast outdoor strain for the Midwest USA. We have had a lot of leaf eating caterpillars attacking the plants because the trees are losing their green leaves. Just some natural defoliation no biggie.
