8/26 - sporty looking great, praying hard! Posh is working on it. But look who finally showed up to the party! I’m calling her Baby spice. She sprouted 12 days after going in the soil. Way to be a fighter girl! This is going to be a tricky thing to manage I feel like my gals are tracking a week apart. I’ll keep this journal’s timeline on sporty spice. -1 week for posh and -2 weeks for baby spice. spice girls let’s grooooow! 8/30 - exactly two weeks from sprout for Sporty and Posh. Pretty wild how big a difference there is between the two. Baby is getting her footing. Now. Sporty already pushing 4-5 nodes and I saw a tiny root through the drain hole. Wanted to pot her up! About 8 cups pro mix, one cup perlite. About 1.5 tbs of Gaia green 4-4-4, some worm castings and sprinkled mycorrhiza around where the rootball would be. God speed girly! 9/3. Potted up Posh today. About a half gallon pro mix, plus about 1.5 tbsp of the Gaia green 4-4-4. Plus about a cup of worm castings, perlite, and mycorrhiza. Sporty is looking very happy, 5 nodes and counting. Added back my second light, let’s go girls!!! 9/5. Wrapping up week 2 here, so far I’ve been really impressed with the pro mix Gaia green and soil support so far. The girls seem happy and healthy. See you in week 3!

9/29 Wow that NYCSA is probably the healthiest plant I've ever grown.ive researched more on the strain. I researched flower time and it is 8 to 10 weeks! Tichs are starting to turn milky. Hairs are turning a little amber. I FIMMED this and it turned out beautiful with like five colas. The little 5lb kush is done. It's about the densest buds I've grown. We have a few days of good weather so I may leave it for a few days. I was considering another app of plant doctor but held off. If I see ANY wpm I'll apply it. Going to hit the NYCSA with cha ching again. Probably one more feed. Grow big should've been taken out a couple weeks ago. Seeing this plant grow so healthy solidifies my new grow area. I even found two or three aphids! Obviously there are no earwigs or their wouldn't be ANY aphids. Nor buds near the stalk. I've got two little quarter size buds at the bade of the plant and those would be gone. Blueberry turned out great. Can't believe it made it through the fusarium outbreak. UPDATE: I think the little 9lb kush is done. Both by the trichs and the shape of the bud. The next few days are supposed to be really good though so I might just let it ride. That NYCSA has continued to surprise me. Strong odor resinous buds. Still blond hairs that have just started to change but the buds are really stacking up. This is one of the healthiest plants I've had so its going the distance. The buds are swelling and trichs getting milking bit the hairs are still blond. I'm hoping for another both swell. When I FIMMED this it ended up coning out perfect with like five tops. I'll have to post a picture of the limb skeleton. I can't take the anxiety with the rippers and letting things go till perfection so I've started keeping the plants inside. I guess that's one benefit if a small grow bag lol. 10 gal us a lot easier to move than 50. I was upset that I lost so much but in very grateful for what I still have. 9/30 Harvested the 9lb kush today. Trichomes say it's done. The buds haven't been getting any bigger either. It is coated in trichomes (approx 15%-20% amber) and extremely dense. I'll save details for the harvest report. FED the NYCSA kf gallon. I used only Cha Ching and Silica. I'm not sure if it should be hit one more time with plant doctor or not. I'm not seeing mold or pm. It says up till day OF harvest and has instructions for medical cannabis. The trichs on this NYCSA have swelled and are filled in super milky. Amber on leaves. I think the FIM might be deceiving me as so many tops are going to be smaller than one large cola. It also has blond hairs all over it. They ARE pulling in a bit but the plant doesnt look ready to me. No senescence but It's one of the healthiest plants I've ever grown. Temps dip into the low 30s at night. I will keep thos diary updated. I need to get my ass in gear and trim my blueberry so I can do the harvest report. I grew it last year too. Turned out better this year. Still have buds on tge blueberry plant that I want to use to show the damage earwigs do. Even to fully mature buds with tons of trichs that should protect them. 10/1 This may have been a shitty season and I lost ALMOST everything to fusarium but I'm grateful for what I do have. Quality over quantity this time. The NYCSA goes inside at night. Trichs are all milky af buds are dense af. This girl has a week or two left. I'm young to pet nature dictate this harvest. I know this is a long flowering strain so I'm letting it ride. Very few of the yellow pistols started turning red. 10/2 Another super sunny day. I'm go8ng to have to water soon. Wondering if I should do one more app of plant doctor before I harvest. I saw a smidgen of pm on a very lower inner leaf. I think the plant needs a week or two. It's tricky. Trichs say its done and buds are swelled but the pistols haven't changed color yet. A VERY few have but hardly any and I've got all milky trichs and super rock hard buds. Frost warning today and tomorrow but I'm putting the last one inside at night. I check it multiple times a day. Should be OK. 10/3 Last couple nights were freezing! Car was all iced up this morning. Good thing I put the last girl in the barn. She was absolutely perfect except for a few spots of pm down low. I bring a loupe everyday things change so fast. However since this plant is so healthy and has no problems I'm letting it ride until I feel it's perfect. Another hard frost tonight but the days are AWESOME. Just pure sun! Pistols are receding but haven't changed colors yet amd are still light orange. Some have died and turned red. The trichomes are full and milky with a few amber. I know that NYCSA is a long flowering strain. Looking at the structure of the flowers and the thickness if it's not done it's really close. I gave it some water today. About half a gallon. I was wondering I'd I should give it one more dose of plant doctor before I harvest. I think I've got a week or so left. I'm uncertain if I should use it or not. The pm was very space amd I wiped it off with a paper towel and alkaline water. The lb kush I harvested looks and smells amazing. I can't wait to try it. 10/4 Super cold last night. I waited to bring the plantvout until 8am and the temp only rose to 35 from 31 at 6am. Checked trichs again amd they look perfect. My only hesitation is that pistols haven't changed color and I noticed that SOME die and turn a bright red. The others pulled into the bud but stayed a more yellowish color than orange. I can't find any I go on this strain New York City Skunk Ape. I found the breeder which is from Maine. I think it's goonie genetics and its 10 week flower I think. This is a tough one. We have some sunny weather coming and it won't be too cold. I'll bring it inside at night. I did notice negligible amounts of pm on lower portion of plant. I defoliated but I didn't want to do the plant doctor as it's been so cold. Last few days have been all hard freezes. Below 30°F. I'll check on this later. If possible I'd like it to get all the sun it can. I'm just running out of time. Checked the relative humidity with not a cloud in sight and iys all sunny but the rh is 88%! No wonder we have a problem with mold. It I didn't think I'd be harvesting in a couple days I'd use plant doctor again. I'll make that decision later. It will at least get today's sunshine. EDIT: TODAY WAS THE DAY. She came down. Trichs were milky turning amber and the buds were fat as hell. I'm not risking anything else and I doubt I'd gain anything anyway. This girls telling me she's done so I listened. I'll be updating that harvest report soon. So excited for this strain!

Week 3 of veg and transition week, she is under 13 hours of light now. Don't want her to get to big in the jar, just a headache to manage, normally I just run autos in the #Hydrojars. She gets a bit more fertilizer now, added some Mycco from Eden Green.

We are hitting week 4 now! Plant looks strong, has a nice green look overall and she seems to like her new home! I give her every 4 days ph regulated water. 1liter from the bottom, about 1,5l from above. I will give the plant another week unter the trellis to make sure the side branches catch up. Curious how week 4 is going!

Hoy toca pasar a floracion y rezar para que no sea un macho. En pocos dias sabremos si esto continua o se termina la aventura, sin riesgo no hay beneficio. 📅 Dia 1: Descanso 📅 Dia 2: Riego con agua y nutrientes EC 1000, EC drenaje 2200, voy algo alto en EC pero lo soporta bien. 📅 Dia 3: Va muy bien, espero que no sea un macho y se acabe la aventura. Si esto pasa, pondre una feminizada directamente a floracion. 12/12 📅 Dia 4: Ligera defoliacion (Miercoles) 📅 Dia 5: Riego con nutrientes EC 1300 drenaje: 2100. Comieron todo 📅 Dia 6: descanso 📅 Dia 7: riego con agua. Ec escurrida 1750. Es una bella dama blanca 😄, que felicidad y alegría poder continuar con este diario. Un riesgo al ser una planta regular y una alegria porque de aqui se fumaran buenos porros si continua asi.

Week 9 D66. Mad how far she is behind. She only started first signs of stigma, (flowering, pistons, white hairs) 14-18 days ago. So by right you should give any auto up to 55 days of flowering. I know some say 70days from seed-harvest but you start counting once you see signs of flowering, no auto will be done under 40 days, has to have at the very very least 40days and even then she still more than likely could still happily bake for 14days and not bend a leaf in unhappiness. You always wanna go by the trichomes either way. Am pushing the PPM up by a couple 100, she can take it. Am going to give her another 20days on this mix 3 weeks and then change it up by dropping nutes and cutting the PPM at least by half a week before the 2 week flush, (when I say flush, I just mean just flawless finish with no run-off and let the plant finish up on that. This being the course if nothing comes up. But you never know with autos. RH is steady at 65% in the tent and 55-58% in the room temp is 21 with lights off and on its 26c. 15/3/22 Taking a lovely overall shape. Going to have some nice long colas hopefully. Thanks for reading gottagrowsometime

Day 15 - Starting week 3 and all is good and seems to be on track. Will up the water intake just a tad and will start giving her a light feeding of Trchnaflora nutrients this week. Gave her a small amount of plain pH’d water today and a foliar spray. Day 16 - She’s still coming along nicely and gave her her first feeding of nutes today. Only went about a quarter the suggested dosage and only about a cup and a half watered around the base. I’ll keep an eye on her to make sure she takes everything in ok. Day 17 - Had to give her a bit more water today, the soil was already dry according to the soil meter. She took well to it yesterday so she’s definitely not overwatered so should be good today. Day 18 - Nothing new today, just some updated pictures and checked to see how much height she gain and very minimal right now, about 1/8 of an inch bit looking nice and heathy. Her “lower” growth is starting to grow a bit but still seems a bit early to start some LST, will probably wait until next week or so. Day 20 - Almost the end of week 3 and she’s doing great. Gave her about 200ML of plain pH’d water today and I’ve notice she always droops a bit after giving her some but picks right up after a couple hours but will still keep an eye on her to make sure it wasn’t too much. Other than that, she still somewhat short but her lower growth is coming up pretty good so want to start some LST soon. Day 21 - The end of week 3 and decided to start LST. She’s starting to branch out nicely so wanted to get as much light to the other branches as I possibly could. She’s good on water for a few days but did give her a light mist.

Greetings growers,I took the two girls out of the greenhouse because it is getting very hot, they will finish flowering outside. Both are starting to produce beautiful compact flowers that are getting bigger every day. Starting to smell very good around here.😎
