#1 Has stretched up and out! If she continues to fatten as tight as the other two, she will probably be the one with the most weight. Her branches are the tallest and reaching up at least 4-6 inches past both her sisters. Her main cola has some light bleaching, nothing I can do about that, we’ll see how she wraps up. #2 is going to be a producer! She has so many tips and they are all fattening and developing at about the same rate, she is going to be a beast! Her main cola is rock hard. Did a defoliation on her, she is appreciating the extra light penetration 😎💨 #3 is fattening up! She never did stretch, but then again I had her tied and trained pretty far out. She has been thirsty, I have been feeding a dose close to 700 ppm every other feed which has been every 3rd day for her. During the lower feeds, ppm has been around 275. Her tricomes are mostly clear, with some cloudy starting to show. She has the longest to go, but us already dense, and will only get better.

I don’t know if it’s the rapid stack pots combined with the rain science grow bags, or the green planet nutrients but these autoflowers are huge at 54” tall. The largest I’ve ever grown indoors. I’ve always wanted to grow a purple pheno and now that moment has come. These autos are going to be show stoppers!!! I’ve very excited to share with you all.

Overall i'm really happy with this strain. First i thought i wouldn't get a high yield but i'm pretty happy with it i got 250grams of top trimmed buds 2g of hashoil 2g of bubblehash and another 80grams of dry plant material for making bubblehash. Super potent strain with an amazing flavour, definitely nit the last time growing this strain.

2018-04-10 Day 1 I gave the girls water and nutrients yesterday so nothing to drink today. Turned them 90 degrees today, to give my girls as much lightexposure as possible. The flowers get bigger and bigger for each day, Overall the ladies look really good, the colors are very nice, they look healthy. I am a little surprised over the difference in size between nr1 and nr2, nr 2 is 21 cm taller than nr 1, and the flowerproduction is awesome. Not that nr1 doesn't look great - she certainly does - but still.... Nr1 is huge, she decides how much all other girls needs to be risen to get their canopys at the same height as hers. 👊. Zombie Kush nr 1 is 68 cm Zombie Kush nr 2 is 89 cm Check out my latest videos 👌 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Strain information From the selection of one of Ripper seeds first genetic search works, an old Lavender Kush clone was pollinated by brilliant Amnesia. From there a clone that we named “Sideral” was selected and decided to pollinate it again later with Bubba Kush. Its vegetative cycle should be generous if we want to develop the full potential of its Indica demeanor. With a low EC both in the vegetative and the flowering cycles we will get spectacular results. Its purplish colour scheme and the great quantity of trichomes that cover its large flowers would make this strain a key one for Kush flavor lovers. Vegetative: From 2 to 4 weeks Genotipe: 20% Sativa / 80% Índica Indoor flowering: 55/60 days. Production: Medium / High Effect: Powerful / Durable ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G8sSHdfbu1g https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Twzz8lBfEQ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PnE5ixD9iTE https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bDyJXP4vEG8&t=906s --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

week 4 began 30th January 2022 04/02/22: the plants have really sprung up and have taken well to the bud ignitor and bloom. There are various "light sites" - the widows at the front are the smallest. Trimmed some of the lower branches on all of the plants today as well - many a dead leaf. Due to the amount of plants in the space its important that all the bud sites get adequate light. Lights at 80% and around 16 inches from the plants. Humidity is a little hight but will reduce this when I install the carbon filter and out take fan as well as an intake fan next week. over all positibe

Overall this was a good second grow. The initial defoliation was key in getting the nice density I missed out on last time. These plants went through the bloom cycle using a reservoir (5 gallon bucket) and drip irrigation system exclusively. Once I got the correct timing done for the watering, this setup was really great; I was able to go about 1-2 weeks between water refills, so it was easy leave for a couple of short stints with no negative effects on the plants. The one major thing I'd like to work on for next time is the drying process. I'm not sure if I cut the branches too small, if the room was just too dry, or if I just let them go too long (I had to leave for 9 days, and they were drying the whole time). While the curing has helped them get a little moisture back, the actual drying left the buds pretty crispy.

WEEK 3 FLOWERING = 28/4/2023 (DAY 15 FLO) ---> 4/5/2023 (DAY 21 FLO) [DAY 64 - 15° FLO] - 28/4/2023 ⚡ - TS1000: 40 cm distance / 100% dimmer = 150 watt; ⌛ - 12/12 light cycle; 🌡️ - 27° C - 50% RH during light / 23° C - 58% RH during night; 📑 - PH 5.9 - EC 2.3 in DWC; 🍔 - For the third week of 12/12 I decided to decrease N a little and increase P and K: Micro 2ml/l, Grow 1.8 ml/l, Bloom 2 ml/l; 💧 - Solution in DWC is getting warmer: 22° C; 🥅 - I'm using the second SCROG net to even out the canopy. I bent the topmost branches and spread the branches further towards the sides of the box. The branches are still flexible enough to bend without issues; 🌱 - No marks on leaves, the plant has a nice green color. There are at least 30 flowering sites popping out of the second SCROG net. As already said, it's my first time with photoperiod and I don't know what to expect in terms of stretch, I'll try to manage it as best I can. ↕️ 43cm; 🔜 - Bought and mounted my new 3x3 tent. Next time I'll use that with my 2 TS1000! [DAY 65 - 16° FLO] - 29/4/2023 🌡️ - 27° C - 55% RH during light / 23° C - 55% RH during night; 📑 - PH 5.8 - EC 2.3 in DWC; 💧 - Keeping an eye on the PH and EC values ​​I noticed that in this 50 liter configuration the EC is very stable while the PH slowly drops day after day. I manage it don't using PH down when I top up. In this way I bring the PH levels to 6.1 and need to correct it after 3 or 4 days; 🌱 - Look at the day 65, done? Now go to last week and look at day 60. In 5 days the plant has filled the box again, amazing! 🌸 - Pre-flowers are forming, between tomorrow and the day after the flowering sites will be full of white pistils. [DAY 66 - 17° FLO] - 30/4/2023 🌡️ - 26.5° C - 60% RH during light / 22.5° C - 57% RH during night; 📑 - PH 5.8 - EC 2.3 in DWC; ✂️ - Removed about 20 big fan leaves; 🌸 - Flowering sites are filling up with pistils. [DAY 67 - 18° FLO] - 1/5/2023 🌡️ - 26° C - 64% RH during light / 21.5° C - 60% RH during night; 📑 - PH 6 - EC 2.3 in DWC; 🌸 - Pistils everywhere! [DAY 68 - 19° FLO] - 2/5/2023 🌡️ - 26° C - 65% RH during light / 21° C - 65% RH during night; 📑 - PH 5.8 - EC 0.4 in DWC; 💧 - Flush for 24 hours, tomorrow she'll get full flower blend; 🌱 - Plant got 6 cm in the last 48 hours. [DAY 69 - 20° FLO] - 3/5/2023 🌡️ - 26° C - 65% RH during light / 21° C - 65% RH during night; 📑 - PH 5.8 - EC 2.4 in DWC; 🍔 - After 20 days, DWC change: 40 LT flower blend. Silic (1ml/l) + CalMag (1ml/l) + Micro (2ml/l) + Grow (1ml/l) + Bloom (3ml/l) + Fulvic (1ml/l) + Atazyme (3ml/l). Added about 100ml Ph down Flower by Canna, to be honest I don't think it's very effective, I had to use a lot to lower the PH and I hope it's stable. Only plus side: is just phosphoric acid and is very useful in this phase! 💧 - Not a single dead root at the bottom of the DWC, I hope the old roots are at least rotting away. On the bright side, they're not causing any problems; 🌱 - Plant looks pretty fine, perhaps there is some slight light burn. I'll check tomorrow and, if necessary, raise the lamp by a few centimetres. The branches are still quite flexible but I have no more space to bend them 😅 [DAY 70 - 21° FLO] - 4/5/2023 🌡️ - 27° C - 60% RH during light / 22° C - 65% RH during night; 📑 - PH 6 - EC 2.4 in DWC; 🌱 - Week 3 flowering is done. Big change this week! I don't know if I'm talking bullsh*t, but since the switch I have noticed an important change in the leaves, they seem much thinner and longer, typical of Sativa dominant plants, and I like it!

This little girl started her journey on April 4th with germination into a water glass and finished up on June 27/20 – Day 78 from germination. She was a fun grow and was very resilient through the whole run. She spent most of her grow time in a 20/4 light schedule. She formed nice frost levels and stayed to a very nice and manageable height of roughly 20” tall without topping or bending her main stem. She was not as fussy about nutrient levels and took them well. She does like her medium on the dryer side though. Small little auto bush of OG Kush crossed with Indica genes😃 She would make a nice a plant to run while you are vegging out some photos for 6 or 8 weeks as she is not very big in size but will swell up and yield decent weight👍 She was grown in a 3 gallon fabric pot with coco coir and maybe 15% perlite. She was fed salt based nutrients……..so sorry but they are flushed out and that is what I am more comfortable with. Focus on the early growth with microbes, fungi and kelp!! She was fed the normal pattern with pH being held around the 5.4 to 5.8 range in feeding. Then as flower approached, I gave the pots a more consistent look at the runoff numbers and she was running 7.8pH coming out of her!!!!! WTF. She stayed in her pot that she was planted in and fought this issue all through the rest of her grow. The pH issues started surfacing around week 3….as we headed into flower of course. Scratching my head for weeks, I ultimately didn’t change anything other than really low pH feeding going in…….below 4 idea. For weeks she had 3.9 water going in and still getting 7.8 running off. I initially felt it was related to cheap fabric bags so I cut slits in the very bottom of the bags that stayed and tried transplanting other girls into plastic pots, which it can be fabric pot issues but I am not as convinced anymore for this run that there was an issue there, wasn’t sure about giving her Magnesium on top of Magnesium and therefore did I mess her up good on the inside early on in week 2 idea, out of options I changed back to RO water and that seems to have solved my issues……I was using tap water that was not filtered this run🤬 The pH was high so that was adjusted but with the ppm being at 185 to 200 range I chose not to buy a filter and just dechlorinated the water only. I was tired of lugging 5 gallon water bottles in and out of the basement😃 That is a difference from all other grows…..silly for not catching this by week 4! So…….back to lugging bottles in and out of the basement😂😂😂 She really started to take shape around weeks 7 and 8 and formed a beautiful little cannabis plant and grew to 20” tall and roughly 18” wide. Main focus with her was to just perform LST on side branches and let the top go…….I wanted to just let her go and see what would happen to her main cola for size and height……plus I don’t do that…….I always bend over the tops on my grows so this was a little different for myself. She grew very nice leaves and a lot of them. This pheno had a lot of leaves to her and that is fine……its not really my first choice in characteristics of a plant though..…..so much more work at trim time……Green Poison XL Auto, SWS71, was a dream to trim👍 as a comparison!! She didn’t fox tail very much she firmed up her buds towards the end. The resin production was a little slower coming out in her but by week 7/8 she was getting pretty impressive😋😋😋 White and sticky!! She smelt of woods with citrus notes…..works for me👌 There were no issues at all retaliated to pests or bugs……I threw in a couple sticky traps but there weren’t any to catch. She handled the high humidity in this run great and there were no signs of any powdery mildew👍👍👍 She is a very stable strain from Sweet Seeds! Day 63 was last feeding, flushed for almost two weeks. Rezin and Liquid Weight still given for one of the weeks but the last week was plane water. In hind-site I think I should have hit her with some Flawless Finish to help get that last bit out of her. She did feed on most of her nutrients but some of the lower leaves were still more green that I would have liked. She was cut down on day 77…..11 weeks is about what I suspect looking at her in week 7…….this was roughly 8 weeks flower time……makes sense😃 She grew for 75 days and then I decided what the heck…….she needs a hole in her stem to stress her out😃 I didn’t try breaking a branch but rather drilled a hold into the base of her stem……something new to try out. I think I will try more holes next time….max 3 I think……then I want to run a couple with cracking their stems and see if there is a difference👍 I feel more in control of a drill and its accuracy vs bending branches and they snap where they want to…….anyway it was worth a try!!!! Worst case, it made it easy to hang her as a whole plant to dry😃 This girl battled pH issues all her life and as a result the buds were not where I would have liked them. There were not fluffy…..but here were not as hard as I would like for rolling joints, so the whole girl went to concentrates She dried for 7 day as a whole plant, 2 days more in smaller branches, then 1 day curing in jars before dry ice sift. She yielded 74g of dry cured buds, 2.65 ounces. Not bad…..I don’t think her buds would have gotten a lot bigger but they certainly would have had more weight if they firmed up…..grower issue, not genetics. So…..lets make some rosin from this girl🤩 The yields on this and making her hash a perfect colour are not what this process is about…..let’s get that out of the way right away……this is about another way to enjoy and consume my cannabis for my own relaxation and medicinal needs. Taking pictures of rosin is always a challenge…..it is always dark in the pictures unless you are using a nice DSLR to let more light in. Rather than making bubble hash with water, I just used the bags to make a dry ice kief from the buds. Unfortunately I couldn’t get a block of dry ice and had to use these cubes…….don’t like these as much because there are too many surfaces beating your green plant material and your kief goes green before long when shaking. Could have done it with out ice all together…..nicer hash but lots left on the plant afterwards that way so yield is low. Used two bags in this extraction, the 220 as the bag for edibles and the 120 as the bag for pressing rosin to smoke…..dry ice hash rosin!! The yield on this from the 74g of bud was 22.4g kief. 220 bag was 12.6g and the 120 bag was 9.8g. Not great I guess but I didn’t want to keep going for 4 and 5 minutes with the bags…..these were roughly 2 minutes with the 220 being 3 minutes on the high side. You can certainly see that the 120 product is more golden in colour than the 220 but since I didn’t crazy, the 220 is still a very nice colour. Last step on this journey was then to take the kief and make our rosin. I pressed product using 37um bags with the temp set at 160 degrees. All were done the same for the most part……roughly 4 gram presses, the same temperature, and the time. The first presses were 90 to 120 seconds. If a second press was done on the pouch, then it was at the same temp but for only 40 to 50 seconds. The yield on this was just shy of 7 grams…….6.77g…..roughly 30% yield from Kief???,…..roughly 9.2% from flower???…….would have likely done better right from flower😂 😂 😂 it was fun, regardless of the yield😃 Tasty rosin!!!! Can’t beat rosin for getting the true tastes of the plants. These numbers are absolutely due to my abilities with extraction.......sure don’t judge the genetics based on my returns......she is a frosty plant and will give great returns!!!👍👍 Several pictures show that, I hope!! So that will wrap up this diary for Sweet Seeds Killer Kush Auto, SWS56. Certainly give this girl some consideration if you like OG Kush and also have space concerns in your grow. She is beautiful frosty little girl with a punch. Certainly get the usual woody and citrus notes from her rosin and she has a lasting high. She helps to get get you going and willing to finally start cleaning that corner of the room you have been avoiding…….watch out though…..distractions😃……next thing you know 40 minutes go by and you are staring at a box of DVD’s wondering what happened to CD’s…….cassette tapes (the art of the “mix tape”), 8 tracks, vinyl……ALBUM COVER ART Baby!!!!!! Then its either back for another rip, or get your crap done because the next rip leads into even less work getting done😃😃 Great job as usual @Sweet_Seeds !!! Looking forward to the next one……Cream 47 photoperiod……actually, already done germination and a new diary coming👍👍…..compare a 3 gal pot to a 5 gal pot, or a fabric vs air pot, and see what my yield differences are?? Thanks for the read and greatly appreciate the comments Growmies!!!!! Love spending time on a forum for growers to help fellow growers. Much grower love and thanks again for your time, opinions, and suggestions🙏🙏🙏 Cheers!!

Good week of fattening up , temps are on the rise by 2 degrees in the tent as summer gears up I would of liked to have had these done by now as the next few weeks are hot and humid . Just gotta keep that air flow up and cop the wind burn on the fan leaves . Started feeding every day last week instead of every other day and they are hooking thru their feeds . Will feed another week then a 2 or 3 week taper to flush . The smell from this purple punch is so strong and the leaves actually taste like blueberries , home stretch now
