First ever harvest! Plant #2 has been covered in trichomes for the last two weeks and with a jeweler's magnifying glass and my camera phone zooming 7x it's clear that many of trichomes have turned amber. I chopped her down last night and have been hanging the branches upside down in a cardboard box with a fan and dehumidifier. I've read I should keep the temperature in the 70s F and the humidity around 50%. I'm doing my best but the garage isn't well insulated so I'm at the mercy of the weather. I'll keep an eye on them and when the branches snap easily I'll get them in jars for curing. Plant #1 still has some time to go. The branches are filling out but to the naked eye there are no trichomes. When I look with the magnifying glass I can see them but I'm concerned that #2 had been coated in them for about two weeks now. Should I just wait? I think I'll just wait

🔥🔥🔥I think the stretch is over. Did some slight defol nothin major. Widow and dream have grown most in this last week but are still smaller then the rest. Smell picked up too. Can't wait to seed how the buds develope. Wish I had the 2nd trellis up and trimmed em all harder to prepare for the reduced mobility of the trellis...only my 2nd indoor grow so I'm still learning any advice is greatly appreciated😀 I'm bored so I'm a day early with the update. 2nd grow with the mango 1st indoor with the headband and 1st experience either way with the rest. Plant Count Mango- 8 Blueberry Headband- 7 skywalker- 1 Bruce - 1 Widow- 1 critical purp- 1 enemy dream- 1

I just added weeks 5 and 6 into one week because I didn't really have time to post last week. There seems to be a problem with my plants that I can't quite figure out. The only commonality that I changed with both plants since the last grow is the microbe Inoculant that I bought from NPK. The Black Afghan that I harvested back in November didn't have these microbes added to the soil and it grew into a monster. I am beginning to wonder if these microbes are stealing food from my plant. Even though these microbes are sold as "flowering" microbes. I'm beginning to think they are starving my plants. Also, I am technically 7 weeks from the flip to 12/12. So I may just be at the end of the flower period for these plants. I checked the Tricomes and they are mostly cloudy with about 5-10% amber. Normally at this point I would be cutting out the nutrients and letting her consume her leaves. However, she has already started to so that and now I don't know what to do. I just don't know. So... lesson learned. Stick to the basic nutes and stop trying to make this job harder than it needs to be. KISS

She’s a little sensitive to nutrients. Shes had some light nutrients but very light. Mostly Ph’d water. Going to give her the full Canna coco line tomorrow and introduce a pk booster but low streangth

-12.09.2024 The thirteenth week begins (including the seedling phase). The plants look good, most of the trichomes are milky. The plants were watered for the last time today with a little water. Tomorrow the lights will be switched off for the next two days and then they will be harvested at the weekend -13.09.2024 Today the lights will be switched off until Sunday and on Sunday both plants will be harvested -15.09.2024 The plants were harvested today and will hang in the box for the next two weeks before they go into jars. The humidity is 45% and the temperature is 22 degrees Celsius -22.09.2024 The plants continue to hang upside down in the box and dry. The air humidity is around 50%-65% but the fans are running 24/7, the fresh air supply and air circulation are very good so I'm not worried. If anything happens, I will update it here. Otherwise there will be an update when the plants are dry

Getting my supports into place and then will flip this coming week. Mites seem under control, still using soap spray and systemic spinosad in watering. The two middle most plants are Ice Bomb. I have not been feeling well so I have not pulled them all out for photos this week.

Wow these 2 are starting to stack! Storm rolled through and dumped 100mm of rain. Farm dog ran off. But my girls didnt even break a nail. They are wide open and in full bloom waiting for the sun and some more rain. Cumon mother nature its time for it to rain on a reg basis again.

I’m overjoyed with the phenos this strain is producing, strong vibrant purples with some serious flavour profiles! Scent Profiles we have: Candy Lemon Sherbet 🍬🍋 Sweet & Piney Diesel 🍭🌲⛽️ Sweet & Tangy Tropical Punch 🏝️🥊 Alongside this, these beauties are the frostiest and the most insanely dense koala looking nugs I’ve ever produced!

12/30 - Dropped the 3x3 net for spacing - Micro dosing Silica and Green Planet through harvest - Sick plants have bounced back and are flowering accordingly - Update concluded 😎😎😎😎 01/01 - First update on the new year!! (2026) if you are reading this, many blessings and prosperity to you and yours - Closing out in the first 30 days of flower - thus far all running accordingly - dropped the light intensity down to 50 for offset heat index down to 71 degrees, humidity around 50-60%

Continued growth on day 105, as October gets closer the days get shorter and the nights a bit chillier. The plants have continued to develop beautiful trichomes and the smell is scrumptious. I still find a few caterpillars here and there though i have prevented most of them from destroying the plant. Please do not neglect to check up on the state of each bud if growing outdoors.

The apparent potassium deficiency has got me worried about how to get some into the plants ASAP. Therefore, I have purchased some Xpert Nutrients Bloom Booster, courtesy of Amazon Prime! Sadly, this seems to be of inorganic nature. However, I need to rectify the issue quickly, so this seemed the best option. Another possibility is light burn, as the plants have grown as tall as my tent! 6ft! So I have turned down the lighting to 60%. This seems quite likely as my FBP2 is considerably shorter than FBP1 and FBP3, and this plant does not have the same issues. The new dehumidifier has managed to get the RH down to around 49%. Considering it was up to 99% this week. I definitely am trying my best to avoid the dreaded bud rot! I added a large amount of Silica as the stems are decreasing in strength under the weight, so hopefully that will help. Additionally a Potassium deficiency itself can cause weaker stems, so I'm trying everything, (possibly overkill) to correct my oversights on this. All in all I've learnt many things from this 1st grow. Most importantly the necessity of LST, to prevent the plants from getting so tall, and that will avoid the light stress. The trichomes are still mostly clear through the jewellers loupe. From what I can tell as my eyesight isn't too good. It's difficult to tell milky from clear to me. 21.8.24; I just did a defoliation, I removed many more leaves today 🍃 things are getting super crowded in the 4x4, even with both tent doors open. I adjusted the plants, alternating so that each side of each plant gets correct lighting (as best I can manage)! I gave the plants each; *1ml in 1ltr of dechlorinated water, of Ecothrive Flourish. **2ml in 1ltr of dechlorinated water of Xpert Nutrients Bloom Booster. ****2ml in 1ltr of dechlorinated water, of Cal-Mag. My fan also broke, so I moved my lounge fan into the grow room. It's a lot more powerful, even on the lowest setting, so I tried to disperse it trying as best as possible. Thanks for reading my diary 🙂

01/27/25. Welcome to the start of week 4. This little lady is lovin life. As I mentioned last update, she was a bit smaller than her friends previously, but she has been playing catch up. Shes doing a great job. She now has the same amount of nodes as most of her friends, that being 4. Her leaves and stature are just a bit smaller. I will top her as soon as she hits 5 nodes. I think she’s definitely favoring the temperatures being a little warmer. It’s still not where I’d like it, but an improvement. She was just watered yesterday, slowly, until a bit of run off. I’ve upped her food to 2.5 across 3 parts, as well as upped calmag (1) and silica (2). I pulled a dip shit move and left my measuring tape in the flower tent and it’s lights off, so I’ll have to come back tomorrow to update that. I doubt she’s much different than last measurement though honestly. Update: 01/29/25- updated measurement and watered with food. 01/31/25- topped and plain watered. Also added picture/video. Went ahead and topped at 4th node because with the node spacing it seemed a better spot for this one. I did wait until 5th was there though. Thanks for lookin. ✌️

Flipped these ladies 06 Oct 23 (Friday). After watering 09 Oct 23 (Monday) I walked in and the before SOG photos are what it looked like, I put up the new net and tied a few tops down to spread the canopy out. With the new trellis in place I'm going to let theses ladies rip and add another trellis once they outgrow their current one.

I think I'm about a week away from harvesting #1. There are a few amber trichomes on the buds (there are more on the sugar leaves) but the smell I'm looking for isn't there and many of the pistils are still white. I have just been giving it plain tap water with no nutrients for the last few weeks.

Time for chop is here 🤚🏼😎 Smells good, looks good. I have these three girls hanging upside down in a dark room with a heater on to keep between 60°F & 70°F & indirect airflow in the room to prevent mold & preserve terps. Aiming for 7-14 days drying time followed by a minimum of 21 days burping & curing. Will make a harvest post regarding dry weights smells & better flower pics in 4-5 weeks time. Until then check out my other grows & happy growing to all. 😊🌿

Found some sign of nutrient burn on leaf tip of one BCN. On the end of week 6 both BCN leaf looking turn to lighter shade not sure some problem? Pineapple starting show a bit of white hairy on top that start flowering on end of this week 6. I start to feed flower fuel on both BCN and another Pineapple i still feed same as last week.
