WEEK 11 (Day 71-77) I harvested all my Dos-si-dos on Day 73. The plants remained very small and compact, which was partly intentional. The pot volume was set quite low, which I wasn't entirely happy with. Splitting the pots also turned out to be less practical, as the plants ended up too close together. Despite that, the harvest turned out quite respectable. Visually, I really like it the dark tone and the many trichomes make for a fantastic look. The aroma is also quite special. First and foremost, I find it has a strong, sweet note in its scent. As for the cultivation, the Dos-si-dos were very easy to care for and handled all training exceptionally well. Due to the short distance between the shoots, I might even recommend LST or just a single, simple topping. I fertilized almost exclusively organically, except that I added a bit of Plagron Green Sensation during the flowering phase. I continuously defoliated well to ensure good air circulation, which worked quite well. In the last two weeks, I kept the lights on for 24 hours straight to avoid fluctuations in temperature and humidity. By the end, I settled at a DLI of around 60鈥攊t was a bit more than desired but still worked fine. In the last week, I only watered with plain water and dimmed the lights a bit. Some of the tips developed a purplish hue. The buds appear very firm and voluminous, sparkling thanks to the dense, white layer of trichomes. I would absolutely grow this strain again since it has a truly great and robust growth pattern, though next time, I would choose larger pots. I'm now drying my harvest at around 60% RH and 21掳C until the smaller stems become brittle, then I'll store them in my hygrometer jars for curing. I'm satisfied with the yield as well. Based on my calculations, I reached about 400g/m虏. A good result for such small bonsai-like plants. For small grow spaces, this strain is really perfect. I've never grown such small yet productive plants before, and I found it to be a great change of pace. A huge thank you to Zamnesia for the support鈥攊t was, as always, an honor.

Day 15 - (video) went in and did a round of defoliation, focusing mainly on fan leaves, clearing out the underbrush to help improve air circulation. Despite this being my first mainline, I'm feeling pretty proud of my work so far. 馃槉 Day 16 - I've made it through the boring part of the flowering hump, and I now have little baby buds forming. 馃挄 I still struggle with deciding how much / how little to keep as far as undergrowth and side branches, but I am happy with how she's grown thus far! Her roots are ridiculous! I am having to add a gallon to my reservoir at least every other day. 馃挦 She's a tank! 馃槣 I took a few cuttings from this plant and very lazily used my own saliva as a rooting gel and tossed them in water in a window. All of them have rooted. These genetics are strong 馃挭馃挭 馃挭 . It's starting to smell a little happy in the tent too. 馃槈

Had to rearrange everything and start using the 5 x 5 tent for all the flowering. Put the 11 Timber Grow Vero cobbs set up in the tent. Had to customize the frame to fit it in. Customize is code work for cut up. Did not change the cobb spacing at all, just trimmed the overall frame so it is slightly smaller. They fit good. The tent is bright. Had to install a 6" exhaust fan to the tent to suck all the warm air out. This gets dumped outside without a charcoal filter, haha. I can smell it in the backyard, I wonder if anyone is going to say something. Who cares though, haha. Installed two small fans above the lights to cool the cobbs and a larger floor fan to keep the air moving around in the tent. The end result is good however the temperature is still slightly higher than I want. I will work on ways to lower it. Plants are doing good, smell is stronger now. The smell is great too. Buds are bulking up and really frosty. The silicate seems to be working fine, Ifeed this every watering. The plants seem to love nutrient, I keep adding it and watching this closely. The one plant is starting to get orange hairs, this is the one that was always under the cobbs. The other two are a week or two behind. Cheers.

This girl is by far the healthiest plant I have ever had at this stage. By healthy I mean she is the biggest, the greenest, and has the thinckest stem I have grown yet. Today is day 28 from seed and she is as thick as a marker lol. I grow in small 5 gallon pots. My stem is normally as round as a milk jug cap. I feel like this could do better.

Herrrrro gang! Welcome to another week of Daank's grow! 8/2: Brought back the Great White. I was reading that it works well in conjunction with other root excelurators, like Rapid Start. I got 2 more temp/humidity sensors for the tent. It allows me to keep track of 100% of what is really going on, I find it to take away worry (b/c temps are very important!). Today was a "eureka!" moment in terms of understanding run-off pH and it's value to telling the grower how healthy the plant is and what nutes may, or may not, be needed. I also got some new LED glasses so I don't burn my fucking corneas when tending to the garden - they are phenomenal and I suggest them if you grow with an LED. Check the videos and photos. Pistils are growing rapidly and baby budlets are starting to form. I'm actually getting a nice subtle purple color - it's very neat. Today's run-off pH was 6.3, and I gave it 6.3 for water - so that's a good sign (I bounce the pH all around from 5.5-6.3). I'll keep track of this moving forward in the diary. Minor defoliation. ***Pro-Tip: If you're wondering what the run-off should be... around +.5/-.5 of what you put in is good. But this also might not mean anything... so many different opinions on the web. ****: My Spotify Playlist for my plants: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/0ydAFulbzDlqFr5WIZdfM1?si=r5M5H83BSQ6tOE5pk9Bg4Q Day 38 - 8/4: Lil'budlet's are poppin' up all over. By the end of this week I assume we'll be in full swing. Day 39: I have ordered new nutes, Advanced Nutrients. The reviews, photos, and research all point to using this for the best results. I found them to be a bit expensive, but if I can always get perfect pH values without much of a hassle... I'm down. They will be here by end of the week and I'll transition that over this weekend. I can't wait. Day 40: 8/6 - Advanced Nutrient nutes arrive today. Watering will be a pleasure. The plants look great. The buds are real. Small smell. Trimmed last night quite a bit for bud production. They love George Gershwin's "Rhapsody in Blue". It perks 'em up.

馃榿馃榿馃榿 Hi grow mates 馃榿馃榿馃榿 As day 43 arrived we are opening 7th week of my grow journey. Like you can see from the photos girls started to blooms wildly. Purple Lemonade is getting absolutely purple, flowers gets density and aroma. Cinderella !! Wow !! Here is an interesting one. She is huge, I never had so many flowers sites on one plant. She's tall girl 118 cm !! Bruce Banner, she is a real mystery. She started to blooms like all her sisters, but looks a little shy. I think she need just more time. From previous experiences, I know that the "shy" ones gave best results. Fingers crossed 馃 Day 44 Purple Lemonade 81 cm Original Cinderella 118 cm !! Bruce Banner 90 cm I wish you all, All the best 馃槆

Anotheer amaazing Black cherry punch pheno, beautiful colas, they looks just like rockets, so fat dense and sticky colas man. So in love with this black cherry punch, same sweet aroma, very fruity and sweet just like her sisters. I'm very happy with how this strain has performed in my garden. All my plants are 100%organic grown. She's been grown with florganics FLO Living soil, guanokalong organic dry amendments and Silicium flash by biotabs which contains bug shit and helps to keep a good microbial activity in your soil, it also contains silica, Flo living soil is full of life too man, I'm getting top clean aromas, very clean medicine for myself. It's such a pleasure to work with what I love the most. My cannabis 馃馃挌馃構馃崻 peace everybody!!

Welcome growers We finished week n掳5 with these three SORBET#4 馃尶馃尶馃尶馃崸 The whole family reacted pretty well after last week's topping and looks very healthy and happy They have some differences, especially in terms of height.. There are two fairly identical phenotypes, small in size with close internodal spacing and deep green leaves The other, on the other hand, is visibly more grown in height and has a more "open" structure, typical of specimens that tend to have a profile more on the Sativa side. However, I am giving everyone the same amount and type of nutrients, which I will report later 馃槈 In this week i have reduced the lights cycle from 16/8 on/off to 14/10 on/off 馃挕 At the same time i have increase the intensity of my two led SP3000 from 50% to 75% and im going to put them at the maximum potency after the switch at 12/12 The two led panel are connected with a cable and i have only to adjuste the dimmer of one of them for change the intensity of each one, in just one move.. About nutrients 馃憞 In this seven days i still giving their always organic/veganic nutrients.. A little bit of silicium (Bionova) / Activator (Biomagno) / Crescita (Biomagno) / Activera (Biobizz) / Grow vegan (Bionova) / The Missing Link (Bionova) / X-Cell (Bionova) / Bioheaven (Biobizz) for the first time and a little bit of P-K 3-5 (Bionova) {not in spray solution but mixed with the othersone in to the water} Like i usually do, a little bit of everything at any watering 馃挧 Anyway.. I decided to take both photos and videos, basically so as not to bore you and me with the same things over and over again.. Hope you enjoy This was the last week before it officially went into bloom.. So stay tuned, the show is going to start soon 馃幀 Thanks for watching 馃槑馃憤馃憤 FC 鉁岋笍 馃嚠馃嚬

Black Opium has continued flower development and is looking very promising. The buds are fattening up very nicely. Good things to come for this one! 馃榿 I'm trying to add in some PK boosters at this stage, she's looking beautiful. I'm adding Bud explosion, Seaweed extract, Ecothrive Flourish, and Sea K. To increase the Phosphorus and Potassium, to aid in flower development. Let's see how fat these buds can get! Here is what I did this week. 4.9.25: I watered with 3L of dechlorinated water PH'd to 6.4 with; 馃挏 2ml Trace PH: 6.4 PPM: 361 9.9.25: I watered with 3.25L of dechlorinated water PH'd to 6.3 with; 馃挏 6ml Flourish 馃挏 1 TSP Sea K(elp) 馃挏 .5 TSP Bud Explosion PH: 6.3 PPM: 970 Thanks for checking in this week and hanging out in the comments, Best of luck to everyone in the contest, Happy Growing 馃槉馃挌鉁岋笍馃崈馃檹

This week the plant almost doubled in size, i must add that we had very nice weather and stable temperatures, shes getting sunlight from around 7AM to around 15PM-16PM and after that just daylight, i dont think i can harvest before the competition ends so bad luck, but its still great to grow this strain, cant wait to see her full of buds, hopefully they get fatter than my last balcony grow, but of course i had some bad weather with my last balcony grows also this one is in a much bigger pot which i really notice 馃憣馃榾 22 august: nothing 23 august: nothing 24 august: water 25 august: nothing 26 august: nothing 27 august: water 28 august: nothing

Day 51, 4th of November 2020: The 3rd day since the lamp switched to be 12/12... I raised up the nutrition intake as it can be seen above only the BioBizz family 2ml/l and removed some LST because the plant remains in shape or just set a bit but nothing significant.... She looks really good and strech is on the way..... Lovely shape 馃槄 Nothing really to report there is crazy 2-3 weeks from now ;) ;)
