Even the longest journey begins with the first step, and this grow was another step on the way to perfection as the journey itself is the destination. Learned a lot and can't wait to apply my knowledge to the next strain.

🌱Fox farm Grow big and Big bloom. 🌱 Defoliated 8 days ago 🌱 Gonna tuck for the next 15 days 🌱 Will defoliate again in 20 days

Smells great, nice dense and frosty nugs. Plant 1: chopped on day 71 (sounds early but the trichomes were definitely ready) and weighed 86.6 grams after drying for 7 days. Plant 2: chopped on day 81 and weighed 83.5 grams plus another 15 grams of larfy buds) after drying for 9 days Plant 3: chopped on day 87 and weighed 123.6 grams after drying for 7 days. Total dry weight: 293.7 (10.48 oz) not counting the larfy buds

Still feeding full flower nutes at around 850ppm. Everything is looking great and the SMELL!!! 😍 2 plants are further along than the other 3, but I think I can still carry them along until I can harvest all 5 at the same time. I will watch trichomes closely. Plants are heavy feeding monsters! Requiring alot of water! They are eating it up!! Dialed the ballast up from 750 watts, to 1000 watts for finish! Looking forward to this harvest, as the buds seem super dense, and the terpene profile is amazing! Very sweet, almost resembling the smell of a box of fruity pebbles! Stay tuned for teichome photos next week!

Ppfd: 500-600, Ec: 1,3-14, Ph:5,8, Drain: 10% Max. Tent is Full After a week of flower, One Main per Square of the Trellis netting. Planning to defoaliate and probably take off everything under the trellis between day 14-21 of flower. Limit the Stretch through generative steering, dropping Night Temperature to 20-23 Celsius and 25-27 Düring the day. Lowering humidity according to VPD. Reaching 40% dryback in the Medium daily, signaling drought and therefore increasing ec in the medium for More osmotic pressure which results in the plant Building flower sites rather than roots and leaves.

Week 6 update: What up Grow family. These testers are growing fast and strong. Where in week 6 now and the swelling and ripening of flowers are going amazing. Still feeding 500ml/16oz daily as I've found that's the sweet spot for 3gal fabric pots for these. I'd say these probably have about 2 weeks left until they'll be finished. All in all Happy Growing.

* All plants had one feed last week with some PK soluble ( SODK one more feed this week). The rest of waterings are tap water with some microorganisms in. * No new deficiencies spotted (except stomper#1 & 2 from last week), PK gives us the last boost. * Buds progressing well with a lot of crystals, smells are medium and so glad about that, promising though after curing properly. * Lights at 35k - 40k Lux. * humidity 45% - 60%, temps 20C° - 25C°. * D53 --> Fixing the canopy with a bit more aggressive LST to all the plants, except the main stem of stomper #3 (the stressed one). * D56 -> Final day of week 8 and the most mature plant is the stomper#1 (the plant with the early LST and most affected by N toxicity in early stage. - Trichomes are looking like 10 days before harvest, letting the other 5 plants enjoy more light. Week 8 --> finished ✅

7 archive seeds are legit super dense tricomb production like nothing I've seen b4. I would NEVER BUY SEEDS FROM ARCHIVESEEDBANK.COM.... they have great genetics but there customer service is garbage. This summer I spent 50 on these 3 seeds and 125 on a 12 pack of reg seeds of a diff strain the reg seeds didn't grow at all and archive never responded they sold me old ass seeds and stole my 125$ I'm happy I already got 32 seeds from the crappy plant of the 3 that I already cut down. I'm letting the last 2 finish up completely

Into week two all cuttings have taken 8 have been topped, spacers have been deployed to train branches 3cm spacers I will increase the size of spacers once the branches develop a little more. about every 3 days Is required depending on how the strain performs. this is a more creative method of growing with the final picture of your media in mind {peecock effect}. once the media has starched I will snap on the spacers to create the scrog for a level canopy, holding the outer plants left and right further out to the left and right for more light exposure to develop my flowers to there full potential. middle of week 2 I put the spacers together to make the scrog mainly two train the left and right rows of plants outwards for more space in the middle of my canopy.

She looks very healthy and super super big,I did not expect such a big stretch in her first 2ndbweek of flower,she's such a big bushy girl,can't wait to see her in full flower 😍 💚. Love what I do man.

Tag 29: 🌱: Beginn Woche 5. Da ich denke, dass wir mittlerweile in der Vorblüte sind, trage ich diese als erste Blütewoche ein. Es gab ganz leichte Anpassungen am LST, ich werde die Lady jedoch vermutlich von nun an in die Höhe wachsen lassen. Desweiteren wurden einige der untersten Fächerblätter, die bereits vollständig verschattet waren, entfernt. Auch 1-2 kleinere Blätter, die nach innen wuchsen und den Blüten die Sonne nahmen, wurden entfernt. Leider ist mir auch eines der größeren Fächerblätter abgebrochen, das ich noch behalten wollte, aber ich denke sie wird es verkraften. 💧: Die Erde ist immernoch feucht. 💡: Die Beleuchtung ist unverändert (DLI ~40, Abstand zur Pflanze ca. 35cm) Tag 31: 🌱: Bisher lasse ich sie einfach erst mal wachsen, ich denke jedoch darüber nach die nach innen wachsenden Fächerblätter morgen doch noch mal zu entfernen. 💧: Die Erde ist immernoch feucht. 💡: Die Beleuchtung ist unverändert (DLI ~40, Abstand zur Pflanze ca. 35cm) Tag 32: 🌱: Heute wurde erneut die Schere angesetzt und ein paar der nach innen wachsenden Blätter sowie ein paar kleinere Triebe im Inneren entfernt. Das LST wurde nur minimal angepasst, um eine einheitlichere Höhe zu erreichen. 💧: Die Lady wird so langsam etwas durstiger und so gab es heute wieder ca. 3 Liter Nährstofflösung. Diese wurde jetzt etwas erweitert und entspricht nun ca. 50% Bio Bizz Düngerschema. Zusätzlich dazu gab es dieses mal auch CalMag+Bittersalz. 💡: Die Lampe wurde ein paar klicks nach oben gehangen um die Werte in etwa konstant zu halten (DLI ~40, Abstand zur Pflanze ca. 35cm) Tag 34: 🌱: Heute wurden nur die Blätte etwas sortiert, um den Blüten mehr Licht zu geben. Mittlerweile haben die höchsten Triebe etwa 20cm (vom Boden aus) erreicht. 💧: Die Erde ist noch feucht. 💡: Die Lampe wurde noch ein Stück weiter nach oben gehangen, um die Beleuchtung in etwa konstant zu halten (DLI ~40, Abstand zur Pflanze ca. 35cm) Tag 35: 🌱: Ein paar der untersten, im Schatten liegenden, Blätter wurde entfernt, sowie 2-3 kleine Nachzügler Triebe aus dem Inneren. Das LST wurde ein wenig angepasst. Ich denke darüber nach noch ein paar mehr kleine Nebentriebe (vor allem aus der Mitte) zu entfernen, damit der vorhandene Platz besser für die größeren Triebe genutzt werden kann. Über Gedanken/Meinungen/Ideen dazu würde ich mich freuen 😉 💧: Zu Tagesbeginn ließ sie ihre Blätter ganz schön hängen und die Erde war ziemlich trocken, also gab es auch heute wieder etwa 3 Liter Nährstofflösung. 💡: Die Beleuchtung ist unverändert.

Today is day 19 into flowering these ladies have had a trim and feed. I've untied them and will let them soak up some light and tie them again tmro to get some deeper light to hit the bottom canopy now the lights not being blocked down there

22/12 Youpi! demain c'est la récolte😍👍. (Elle est belle, elle est mignonne,🎵 c'est une bien jolie personne..🎵.) Je suis pas mécontent du résultat. 🖖🙏

1st of November, HARVEST, D91 So, after the 24 hours of darkness, she is now beautiful and ready. After chopping her, I hung her for some hours – I had some stuff to do – and after that I did wet trimming since I find it more convenient and I don´t like to trim dry buds. I guess the best way for me would be to leave it drying for some days, do the trimming, then leave it drying some more, but, I sincerely don´t have patience lol. When I was in the last stock to trim (which was the main btw) the top bud looked strange to me so I opened it and it was starting to rot.. I got really sad but what can I do except for trying to save it, right? So I took all the rotten parts out of the top bud and tore it to pieces to watch it closely and keep it from getting any more mold. D94 Today I weighed the half part of the top bud that was already dry and it remained without any mold: 3.6 grams. D97 Everything is dry and now curing, the total weight is 68.6, 65 of the whole plant and 3.6 of what I saved from the rotten bud. I´m really happy with the results, the buds aren´t much dense but they look beautiful. D111 Today is the 14th day of curing. D120 Today I´ll be doing the smoke report, it´s been curing for 3 weeks and the smells is quite good already, I know it can be better but the taste is good already so I´ll be doing it today. More info on growing in the previous weeks and a summary of growing and also the smoke report are on the top at the strain review. Thank you very much for reading my diary!

2.3.2024: More of the same. "Plants" are getting bushier. 2 Nodes with the 3rd coming through. Look healthy. Top soil is dry but a few millimeters below is still moist. Once the 3rd node fully develops i'm considering topping but we'll see. Definitely can tell the Crystal Meth has a different structure then the Emerald Fire OG. I'll add pics at some point today 2.4.2024: Watered 32oz at 6.3ph. No run off. 2.5.2024: No water today. Plant is still super moist. Temp hovers around 77-79 and RH has been struggling to stay at or above 60%, even with the humidifier on and the inline fan speed at 2. I've increased the humidity output with the goal of getting it to the 60%-65% range. Leaves are getting bigger and everything is nice and green but i'm surprised at the lack of vertical growth. Its only day 17 from seed so we've got time. Just raised the light to 14 inches from soil and increase power to 50%. 2.6.2024: Moving along nicely. Plant is a little stubby. Nodes are tightly spaced when compared to the Emerald Fire OG. Perhaps thats just the difference in genetics? Raised the light again to 16 inches from soil with the hope of inducing some vertical growth. 2.7.2024: No change to current state. Struggling for lower shoot development due to fan leaves blocking light access. I couldn't help myself so i clipped the single leaves on the bottom of the plant. Probably a big mistake but it'll be a learning lesson if it comes back to bite me. Not much change in vertical growth so i'm thinking about raising the light an inch or two to see if that will help them stretch. Watered 64oz of 6.3ph. Small bit of run off, ph also at 6.3. 2.8.2024: Day 20 from seed. At the moment, the very small haircut i gave the plant didn't seem to have any adverse affect. Lamp at 14 inches from top of the plant, still at 50% power(75watts). Fan leaves are nice and full but rather stubby without much outward growth so I can't really LST or even leaf tuck. There are 3 sets of shoots that i'm struggling to give ample light. Not sure when/if to increase power and/or change height. 2.9.2024: Day 21 from seed. End of week 3. Plant looks healthy but leaves aren't as flexible when compaired to prior days. Wouldn't say crispy or brittle, just a little firmer to the touch. No nutes given yet as the FFOF still has amendments the plant is using. First sign of sex showing too.

17/08 - I had a 5 days travel, which worried me a little, mainly because my irrigation system did not arrive in time. But when I came back the plant seemed very healthy. The medium was dehydrated but as you can see even after some defoliation the plant continues to be very bushy. 19/08 - Very wide canopy! I have a 60x60cm tent and half of it it's taken by the Gelat. Og. Had to rearrange the tent. The Gelat. OG is little bit ahead of the other plant. 21/08 - Did defoliation to open more the canopy.

Week 6 Flower Up until flush, she was only given PK, sugars and sweeteners, and the microbes (listed above). Everything else has been stopped to ensure a proper flush. She started her flush on Day 40 as I want to get a nice fade on her after a long flush. My girls are in coco and perlite, in fabric pots sat on benches so they dry out within 2 days. Because of this I can flush a lot of water through them without overwatering. Infact, the amount of water I put through them doesn't make a difference to how quickly they dry. Good air movement around the pots also helps them dry, and stops any stagnant air within the lower half of the tent and within the plants, preventing any moulds. When flushing, I first feed just enough water to create a run off into the tray so I can read the ppm and pH value. Doing this lets you know how your plant has been performing; whether she's been way off in pH and locked out by having a high/low pH and high ppm, or if she's been doing just fine with a pH range within tolerance and around the same ppm value or less than you've been feeding. This girl was in perfect health, with a good pH and ppm. After that, I flush up to 30ltr and then take a second reading from the last bit of run off. The ppm is the main thing I look at this time, to see how low I've taken it from the flush. Personally, I find the girls fade much sooner, and more overall by doing a bigger flush as it takes almost all of the nutrients out of the coco within a few days. That leaves the plant with nothing but her own stored nutrients to feed on for the next 2+ weeks. A better flush means a better, cleaner smoke. She's stacked up and swelling by the day with huge buds. Not the frostiest strain I've ran, but still covered in trichomes and extremely strong scented. She smells of mixed berries and grapes 🍇 I can't wait to try! Thanks for following and happy growing! 🐺
