Hello everybody! I’ve been busy cause at the moment I am preparing the garden for the time when I am at spannabis <3 So this is my last update till probably ten or longer days. Last entry was at day 17. At day 20 I defoliate them miami.mango style! Grow buds not leafs ;) I did it a day earlier cause I got a bit high humidity around 55% and the following day I got a session with my friends. Yesterday at day 24 they get some nice tea. 15l water pH6.5 add 150g Compost, 25g earthworm cast, 50g biotbabs startrex, 20ml Molasses, some liquid seaweed and a tablespoon of bat guano. They all look pretty good, they are healthy and they drink a lot  cant wait the swell of the buds Definitely a good run, I not completely satisfied but it’s a long time until harvest… So until next time or maybe Spannabis  The Rasta

Day16: nutrients like plan Day 18: i added 2 secret jardin tled 42w bloom --------------------------------------------- She seems to stuck because of the heavy deflotation last week, but ok lesson learned 🤷‍♂️ Maybe someone have some experience with secret jardin tled can can tell me how far i should place them? 😅 Merry Xmas everyone 🎄🦍

. 📹 : Full Video on YouTube @hinterhofgrower, please like & subscribe 🌱 : Chiropractic & supercropping on Day 51, LST day 54 💧 : 4l day 51, 4l day 54 💡 : Dli: 45 mol/m²/d 🤔 : The plant grew so vigorously that supercropping was applied again to prevent her from becoming too tall. The branches were then secured with training clips to prevent them from straightening up. In the second training session, this was monitored and adjusted, and leaves that were shading flowers were selectively removed.

Day 70-77 (Day 71) Not exactly sure why but node spacing on bbb 6&7 is super tight still. Their stems are also harder and less bendy, almost like they’re root bound. Bbb #5 in my veg tent is looking bizarre and I’m at a loss for what to do. I’ve been looking up and asking around about the leaf crinkle and no one seems to know what’s wrong. Trashing a pheno of this would hurt. It could be a keeper too as I don’t think the problem is genetic. It’s definitely root bound but that doesn’t cause contorted new growth like that. I’ve concluded that it’s my dense soil coupled with root bound issues, overwatering and high RH. (Day 72) Later tonight I’m going to give bbb 5 a bath tub flush until it’s reading 200ppms, drain it well and then transplant into a 3g pot with lightly amended soil. I’m also going to give it a light defoliation. I don’t mind stressing the shit out of this plant right now because I won’t be flipping for another week at least. With the small container it will run out of amended nutes mid flower so I will hit it with a few synthetic feedings around then to test out the smokabilty and taste compared to organic nutrients. I might as well give the rest a good defoliation on the rest of the plants too. I will try to get most of what is under the trellis. (Day 73) I definitely defoliated #7 waaay too much. Since it’s tucked away in the corner and a really bushy plant I can’t train it as well as the others. I cut most of the sucker branches and the majority of the lower fans. This should prevent the need to defoliate at all until week 3 of flower. (Day 74) I’ve been reading that higher temperatures with a high RH can affect growth big time. It could be what’s causing all the crinkling and twisting. And now that the plants are in very late veg they could probably benefit from a lower RH. When I was running my temps around 74-78F and 70% RH I was in the perfect range. Now that I’m around 82-86F with the same 70% RH that could be what’s causing it. Hotter air holds more moisture than cooler air and proper vpd at 84F is around 75-80%. I’m going to turn up the speed on my carbon filter and set my controller to 75%. If I don’t see a difference or it gets worse I will drop to 65 and go from there. (Day 76) I finally got the lights raised up another 4 inches or so. It’s not much but it should help reduce the intensity and stretch the nodes more. I’m starting to think the super tight node spacing and droopy/contorted growth has more to do with something I’ve been reading about called ‘soil compaction’. Apparently farmers often deal with compacted soil in fields from running tractors over it all day. When I potted the plants I gave them a good little jiggle to compact the soil down further so I could fit a bit more in the container. I think this could be the culprit as they don’t seem to be drying out evenly. Even the plants in my other room are not drying out like they should and it’s probably from compacting too. With the addition of rock dust and dry amendments the soil can become sandy/clay like and retain a lot more moisture. Wish I would have added a few more liters of perlite and packed the soil a bit looser. Either way I need to get this problem sorted ASAP before I get root rot. Earlier in the season when I overwatered, I stuck a fish tank air pump into the soil and it aerated the soil enough to prevent overwatering. The only reason I discontinued it is because it didn’t have much effect in the 1.7g pots. I just ordered a 36w 6 way fish tank pump that is way more powerful. It was 50 bucks and I’m willing to take a gamble on it. It seems to be my only option at the moment because I can’t just repot. Worst case scenario I can use it for brewing compost teas if it doesn’t work. I’m not sure how well this will work in a giant fabric pot but it’s worth a shot. I’ve heard of people supplementing additional air into raised garden beds with great results. I’m picking off some of the new auxiliary branches to try and widen the node spacing. Growth is definitely slow and stunted but no signs of deficiencies. I just thought of another theory on the node spacing... and the more I think about it, the more I think it’s the mystery problem. I’ve been foliar spraying with 1-1-1 VeloKelp at pretty high concentrations 2-3 times per week. I have heard in passing that kelp and seaweed can somehow reduce stretch. A quick google search reveals that Ascophyllum Nodosum Seaweed and other marine algae extracts contain large amounts of hormones and auxins that reduce plant height and stretch. *facepalm* Guess I’ll stop that for the rest of the cycle. As far as I know there is nothing I can really do but wait for the plant to use up all those excess hormones and nutes. The recent 0-0-15 seaweed extract and 1-0-3 kelp meal I bought is derived from the same kind as the velokelp. I guess I won’t use it again until week 3 or 4 in flower. Tight nodes are very useful in flower but aren’t desirable at all in when trying to scrog in veg. Especially when they’re like a half inch apart. It slows the shit out of a grow. Vietnamese and biker gangs in my area used to grow SOG style and use a synthetic PGR hormone (meant for bonsai trees) called ‘paclobutrazol’ that would make the weed rock hard dense so they wouldn’t have to pay people as much to trim it. I’ve heard that in recent years they have made the switch to using kelp extracts because paclo is getting harder find and is not meant for food crops let alone smokeable crops. I’m ashamed of it but I have smoked pounds of PGR weed long before I knew what a PGR was. 🤷‍♂️ (Day 77) One more theory. Ever since raising up the plants up onto that shelf the root zone is probably significantly warmer and the bottom of the pot (where most of the roots are) drys out way quicker. It’s possible that the warmer root zone could not be holding dissolved oxygen at the proper rate resulting in that over/underwatered look. Or it could be that I’m not watering enough at once to reach the bottom of the pot where the roots are and it’s indeed under watered. I’m going to water in a gallon when I get my new air pump and see if that makes any positive change. If I see the new air pump making a difference, I will flip on the 21st of April. If I don’t see a difference, I will carefully untangle the plants from the scrog net and remove the shelf. That extra foot should make a massive difference with ppfd and will cool down the roots significantly too. I’m thinking about grabbing a simple soil/compost thermometer to check the temp of the medium. Better safe than sorry. Rough week. Hopefully everything get smoothed out in the next little while before I flip.

Welcome to my Damn Sour Diary sponsored by Green House Seeds. DAYS 71-75 Pre Flower Days 2-6 Turning out to be a cracking little plant. Has a lovely uniformed structure that I'm very pleased with. Very healthy lush growth. Has throw up a leaf with cal def. So applied a high dose of Cal powder feed, "deeper details in Diet". She's taken to her LST great. Haven't had to adjust. She's making some lovely tight colas. Can't wait till pre is over so I can get in there and open her up. Haven't touched her defol wise, as you shouldn't while in Pre Flower. All the hard graft was done during her prolonged veg. She has just 3 top nodes. And was pult to make her fill out, and I think I've saved this from what it could of been, after I messed around with her. She's a very reliant Pheno as is all GHS gentics. Diet: Short flowering powder is currently been used, "From GHF". 5-550ppm. Also, I noticed a cal def on 2 leafs, "can be seen from 2nd last pic from above at the back" . So, gave her a dose of Calcium Powder from GHF. 270ppm 160ppm/110ppm ambient tap. Also she's been introduced to Terra Powers Bud Starter Fortuna, adds like 50-70ppm to water. PH - Bloom from Advanced Hydroponics is used to level it out to the feed level. I don't adjust my tap, seems to pick up the PH of what it's coming behind so not needed. Also Fire Yields will be used from TP enzyme line along with a few others from their collection. "Bud/Resin/Terp enhancers. Not many. I'll chose 1 of each and make that my primary Enhancer in its class. The days of juggling 14nutes are beyond over. Also, I'll be getting Green Sensation from Plagron with a few others. And whatever can be used in this grow will be used. So upon picking out what I like from there. Next wk, I'll be adding the 25:30 PK BOOSTER from GHF also. Rasing the ppm by another 150ppm to start off with .15G/L. As is the Short Flowering .45grams/L for an extra 450ppm added to your ambient tap ppm No. LST Was finally applied more to this fine lady. I opened her up some. I nearly snapped of the biggest of the nodes. She broke half way deep inearly taking the end of the top of the stem. I tied the node to the stem, securing it in place. I checked on day 77 and she seems to be pushing through it. Wonder what impact it'll have on the bud making process for that side of the plant. I'll go back after pre and open her up with hard defol(s) 15-20% 2-3x over the space of a week. Lights SP 3000 was used for most of this grow. And the IR/UV45 has made for such a quick flip. 5 days is all it took for her to be fully showing pre flower. I started seen a full flip within 3 days.

Day 49 Flowering : Hi all. A good week for these sexy ladies with lots of colours starting to dominate the white pistils now. #1 is the smallest in height but is not being tight on her bud production and is showing that the small girls can deliver too. Her buds are very tight and solid to touch now. She smells amazing and still has two weeks to really throw out those swollen pistils and calyx. She is beginning to push the trichromes now and with the addition of the Dragon force , she should really get frosty for the finish. #2 is the biggest of the whole group and has a really nice footprint to her. Her main is a huge swelling tower surrounded by castle turrets putting weight on now too. An amazing example of this strain from Exotic Seeds. She alsonl smells so mangonsweet up close too. I cannot wait to hit this lady after harvest now... #3 Is dried and now in a jar curing up. she finished at a respectable weight for her 39 days flowering time . I got 2.1oz of really potent dark and dusty mangonyasting weed.The hit from such a young plant is shockingly good too. Her age did not seem to affect this at all. Wow what a plant. #4 is on her 42nd day flowering and looks very similar to how the #3 looked prior to harvesting. They have a wedding cake strain look to them and forna week behind , she looks very close to finishing besides her size. It will be an interesting week ahead with the shogun getting busy and the harvest so close too. Be safe

Hi folks, I'm coming here to start the process of ending this grow journal. I harvested about three months ago and the weed is definitely cured. Photos are about to come — I'm doing a real studio photo shoot for those buds, they deserve it! While waiting for the shots, I made some pretty damn dank hash temple balls using the iced water extraction method (solvent-free) with my little washing machine. It's a mix of the 8 strains I grew here — never ideal to mix different kinds of resin... but man, this is some serious dedicated work, so I'm making myself happy with that 14g shiny temple ball in the end 😉 Here are a few details about my process for you guys (and don't forget — you can do it with fresh material! Fresh frozen is always tastier. Also, the drying process is much more efficient and faster with a freeze dryer, but... you need the budget for that. I don't, so I go with the air drying method — check it out below): 1. Get your dry trim, then cure it properly for at least a month (I did 3 months). Smell it — mmh, sweet, dried to perfection. ✅ 2. Freeze it, delicately wrapped in a freezer bag. 3. Let a large amount of tap water sit for at least 24h to remove chemicals like chlorine, then use it to make plenty of ice cubes — don't be shy, especially if you're not working in a cool environment. 4. Prep your washing machine: add trim between two layers of ice, fill up with clean water (as much as you can, large vortex is better than a smaller one), then make it seat for 30 min (45 min for thicker buds) the time that the dried green material gets wet again. 5. Prep your filtering tools: catch bag, different mesh bags, spoon, etc. 6. Wash as many times as you can before green contaminants appear, as these lower the quality of your hash — don't hesitate to go up to 8 to 12 washes if the resin still looks clean! Important: each wash has its own specific duration, and they get progressively longer as you advance through the process. Frenchy Cannoli (a true hash legend) provides a detailed timetable for this — from as little as 30 seconds to 1 minute for the first wash, all the way up to around 25 minutes by wash 8. Make sure to follow that schedule rather than using the same duration for every run or running it too long the first wash !! It could breaks to quickly your precious material before you collect all the trich's and the quality would be lower in the end. 7. Collect the wet resin in the mesh bags with a frozen metal spoon, make patties with the resin, and let them sit over some towels in order to drain as much water as possible (place a tissue made for hash collecting over the towel). 8. When the patties are a little dry to the touch, wrap them as they are in the tissue and place them in the freezer for 48h or more. 9. With an iron strainer, microplane your patties over the biggest flat surface you can get! It's important that your micro pieces of hash dry widely and don't get too compacted. Any failure in the air drying process will nucleate rot, ruining your hash in the end and making it a poor product — eventually something to throw away. Sad when you think about all the phases of the process to get to this point! 10. So, in order to air dry properly, you must — it's not optional — lower the RH of your dry room to 35% or slightly below, never above and let it dry as long as needed until the material feels like dry sand. For myself, I found 10 to 15 days is ideal. The room must be very lightly ventilated (not directly on your resin!) and in complete darkness — the goal is to preserve all those delicious terpenes! Ideally, temps around 60°F or 16°C 11. Now that it's dry, collect your resin with a large thin spatula! Make a little mound between two layers of PaperHash, boil some water, and fill up a wine bottle with it! ⚠️ From this point on, to avoid exposing your carefully dried resin to a more humid environment — which could ruin all your hard work — everything must happen in the same drying room. Keep working at 35% RH until your temple ball is tightly and airtight wrapped in PaperHash. (And don't forget to drink water — it's dry in there! 💧) 12. Start to slowly press your resin. Magical moment. Finally.... 13. Press 3 times for 10 to 15 minutes in order to really decarb your hash — because that's what it's all about! Between each press, try as best you can to shape a patty... until the final press, when you'll be able to form that magical shiny temple ball (it only shines with gloves on, guys 😄) 14. You are now allowed to try it — for quality control purposes only, of course! 15. Because you want to age your hash for the sweetest 5-star smoking experience: wrap your temple ball in a large piece of PaperHash — if you can get that brand it's ideal, or another kind (check https://thepressclub.co) as long as it's organic! 16. Place the wrapped temple ball in a glass jar and store it in a dark, cool place. 17. Wait a minimum of 3 months before opening it. 18. Open, smell, touch — you'll be amazed. Roll it up with some weed or tobacco or both (I do both) / Or get a Hooka... you are smoking some true primo aged hash made by yourself! Taste the difference and realize all the path from choosing the seeds online until this first amazing puff ... 🙏 I want to credit my inspiration for making this kind of hash to the great Frenchy Cannoli, who has shared all his knowledge through amazingly rich tutorial content that you can find online with a bit of searching. 😉 Peace Frenchy 🕊️☮️

Hola a todos aqui estamos en la tercera semana y este finde empiezo ya el low strees training !! Vamos a ver como cambia estructura la planta

Still nute burn on new growth even though I'm not feeding them at all. I just got a new water filter and thinking about a distiller. Previously was just letting the chlorine evap off by letting the water sit over time. Still havent tested my tap water yet but i assume its bad b/c i can feel that it is hard water for sure. Just rolling with the punches for now. Got my gf to take a decent pic of the most mature plant this week. It is almost ready i believe.

Videos were taken on day 37 of flower. This one has a heavy strawberry aroma and some strange lookin buds. Looks like it will fill in pretty good. It's on the far right of the tent in the videos next to the purple leafed plant.

And here we are! The end of week 7. And these girls are basically ready. I'm gonna wait a few more days but by Tuesday I predict that I'll pluck them. They are just perfect looking. Fat buds loaded with resin. The smell is interesting. A subtile sweet sugary smell. With a hint of fuel. Very hard to pin down and will be curious with how the final product turns out. I've been ramping up the UVB 310 over these weeks. Now it's been at 4 hours for the last few days. The girls don't seem to mind. Idk if it has had an effect or not at this moment but I plan on continuing it in the future. Watering every day or two. Not giving them as much now tho. Letting them dry out a little more. Cya at harvest!! 🍻

Week 5-6

Last week of flo >> harvest the 29th october This strain is highly resistant of mistakes.

This week will be the last week I make a flush on this girls 5 days ago and I still waiting the day cut! The smell of this plant is amazing
