Opium week 16 7/22-28 This week has been rainy so the outside girls only got watered and fed once. with all the rain we've had, all the girls grew a bit. Photo Opium is now 75 inches and stacking nicely. Happy girl means happy mom.

The plants look really happy, with a rich and vibrant color. They are now growing taller more slowly, but the side branches are getting thicker. The buds are becoming really fat and are completely iced out with trichomes. The calyxes continue to swell, and more trichomes are visible, starting to turn slightly milky. Some of the white hairs are slowly turning brown. I estimate about 2-4 weeks until harvest. The scent is simply delicious, with a pleasant creamy berry aroma. The buds are also incredibly resinous, making your fingers sticky as soon as you touch them. The plants are only lightly defoliated, with dead leaves selectively removed and small shoots trimmed only at the bottom of the plant. The ladies are also extremely thirsty. Besides the regular fertilized watering, they also receive tap water from the bottom, which they usually absorb within a few minutes. I also made an extra video to better show the size of the buds, and using the flash at night highlights the trichomes even more.

Day 85 Day 35 Flower 26/07/24 Friday Big feed again today, using de-chlorinated tap water pH 6. 😁 I noticed slight nute burn on leaf tips so I have dialled back all base nutrients by 1ml. Day 86 Day 36 Flower 27/07/24 Saturday De-chlorinated tap water pH 6 only today full 5L a little run off. Did it outside in the sunshine again today 🌞📸💚 Updates 📸 Day 87 Day 37 Flower 28/07/24 Sunday Feed again today, De-chlorinated tap water pH 6. She took the full 5L with about 10% run off. She really is stacking now 💪 Day 88 Day 38 Flower 29/07/24 Monday Just de-chlorinated tap water pH 6 today. Noticing pistils starting to mature. Video update

The plant is doing really well now. Although it isn't growing as much in height as expected, it is putting a lot of energy into flowering. Given its size, I don't expect huge yields, but I am still surprised and excited to see what comes next. Through training, I managed to make the plant wider and produce more buds, which are now clearly visible and covered in trichomes. The plant's scent has become very strong, with a sharp lemony and earthy aroma, reminiscent of a lemon soda, or even Sprite. The buds are incredibly sticky and have grown well, although the plant remains very compact. Next week, I will keep using the wooden plant stakes with wire to support the plant and continue the LST gently, but I will soon remove them. In addition to the regular fertilized watering, I am also giving tap water from the bottom, both of which are well absorbed. In the video, you can see the trichomes clearly and also get a good size comparison of the buds.

Seit Ende letzter Woche wurde das Licht auf 12/12 h umgestellt 💡 Die RP43 ist in dieser Woche nochmal ein Stück in die Höhe gegangen und hat sich insgesamt gut entwickelt. 🌿🌱 Auch die Vorblüte ist an Blütetag 7 das erste mal erschienen. 👀 Sie ist bis jetzt gut in die Blüte gerutscht🌱

July 29, 2024 So I was going to wait to harvest at the end of this week, but a friend of mine said I should harvest now. I agreed after looking closely at the trichomes. Sour Diesel A weighed in at 20.5 Oz wet weight. No trimming. Sour Diesel B weighed in at 19 Oz wet weight. No trimming. Sour Diesel C weighed in at 23.5 oz wet weight. No trimming. Sour Diesel D weighed in at 18 Oz wet weight. Partial wet trim. The cola is solid, so I couldn't access a lot of the stems from the fan leaves. It'll be a pain to trim I think. The environment should be around 65° and the humidity just below 60%. I'll strive to keep it that way. I shouldn't have a problem with the humidity still being high in my room. I'll be back in 10 to 14 days with a final yield and smoke review. July 30, 2024 Quick update with estimates. The environment in the tent is off by a lot today. I'll have to open the tent once or twice a day to let the super high humidity out. I hate my portable AC. So based on the 81 Oz wet weight and my previous runs, the weight retention after trimming should be around 13%. That should be a total of around 10 oz. It may be a tiny bit more or less. With Sour Diesel D being partially wet trimmed and being so dense, it might increase the total dry weight a little bit. But it could be as low as 8 Oz. We shall see. July 31, 2024 You know, it really sucks when the humidity still spikes and now the tent is too warm. However, as I'm writing this, the central air kicked on. This should fix it all, but I'm still running into super high humidity at night and in the morning while the AC is off. I really hope this doesn't mess up the final product. August 2, 2024 Day 4 of drying. Everything looks good so far. The humidity is still way too high and I'm thinking I should've wet trimmed just because the humidity is so high. Too late now. Anyway, I'm monitoring closely. The exhaust fan is maxed out to help keep air flow constant. That way there's less chance of mold and mildew. I also have both oscillating running below the plants with a small dehumidifier in the middle. It's not keeping the humidity down to a reasonable level, but it IS keeping it lower than it would be. With the fans running, it's evenly leveled out through the tent. The only issue is the temp. It's a bit on the warm side. I'd like it to be at 65°. Currently it's hovering between 69° and 70°. August 4, 2024 Day 6 of drying and these ladies are taking their time. Unfortunately it's because of the super high humidity we ran into the day I harvested. So I'm fighting with 71% humidity in my bedroom. It's crazy. The portable AC is doing absolutely nothing except keeping the temp below 70°. That's good, but it's not good enough. Oh well. I'll just keep opening the tent up with the bedroom light set to green to ensure they air out and let fresh humidity in. Lol. I'll keep checking in until they are done drying. August 6, 2024 Quick update. These ladies have been drying for 8 days now and they aren't ready yet. I'd say another 5 to 7 days. With the humidity being so bouncy, I feel like something will get messed up. It probably won't. I have the exhaust fan up and the oscillating fans going. Should be safe from mold and whatnot. But still. Currently, the temp is at 63° and the humidity at 60%. Hopefully it stays that way for the next few days. At least during the day. I have an idea for night time. It gets pretty humid at night. So I'll turn both dehumidifiers on when I go to bed and turn them off when the AC kicks on. That should technically keep the humidity down, but the temp may go up. However, I do run the portable AC at night to keep my room cool enough for the plants. That brings in a lot of humidity. Still no clue why, but it does. Anyway, the whole idea should work. I just have to remember to shut the dehumidifiers off when the central AC kicks on. August 8, 2024 We are at day 10 of drying. Still another few days left. So a good thing to note is the size of the buds. They didn't shrink all that much. To be honest, they look like they've only lost about 25% of their size. Not a bad thing in the slightest. Hopefully with that being the case, the yield will be even bigger than I calculated. I'd also like to make a correction with my original calculation. My average yield is 15% of wet weight. That being said, I should be looking at closer to 12 oz total. 81 oz. x .15= 12.15 oz. We shall see how close I am now. August 10, 2024 It's now day 12. These ladies are nearly done. I'd say another 2 to 3 days. Not much else today. Just a quick one. I weighed Sour Diesel D. She weighs 4 oz now. A 78% drop in weight. That being said, I think I can safely say this one will yield around 2 oz. Maybe a hint less. Which completely messed up my calculations. Now I don't know. I think I'll go back down to 8 to 10 oz. And if I get 12 oz, what happy surprise. I also made sure to check them for mold as I do every day. So far it looks great! No signs of anything unwanted. Just beautiful trichomes glistening in the light.

Day 22 25/07/24 Thursday Still no Feed/water since Tuesday. Been a humid and overcast two days so not as much evaporation as normal. All plants happy and healthy 💚 Video updates Day 23 26/07/24 Friday De-chlorinated watering pH 6 with 5ml calmag to 5L water. Watered each with 250ml and had small run off. I will continue to feed/water with small run offs to help prevent salt build ups. Video update. Day 26 29/07/24 Monday Nice feed today, using de-chlorinated tap water pH 6. They each had 300ml with small run off. All looks incredibly happy and healthy! The Auto Kabul that was mutated and twisted has pulled herself through and is just a bit shorter than the others.

Day 29 29/07/24 Monday Nice feeding today with De-chlorinated tap water pH 6. Gave her 300 ml and she had a small run off. Getting chunky in the stem now 💪💚

Heute wieder mal ein Update, langsam gehts mir echt nur noch auf den Keks mit diesem Koffer. Die komplette Hälfte der Pflanze wird durch die Lampe völlig verbrannt. Ich warte jetzt echt nur noch auf den Moment an dem die Minibuds erntebereit sind 😢

New week, new problem. The buds are getting too heavy and the stems can't manage much longer. I'm worried I might get a moisture problem as dense as it is. I'm definitely monitoring the humidity.

~ GG4 SHERBET FAST FLOWER by FastBuds ~ Well fam, here we go again with another epic strain from FastBuds Fast Flowering stable. After having such tremendous success growing their Gorilla Cookies Fast Flower outdoors last year, I've decided to run another of their fast flowering strains outdoors this year... GG4 Sherbet Fast Flower! The best description of this awesome cultivar comes directly from my friends at FastBuds which is as follows: "Bred from extremely potent and flavorful Gorilla Glue and Orange Sherbet genetics, GG4 Sherbet FF (Fast-Flowering) takes all the best traits to the next level, offering a high-yielding strain that can produce up to 600 g/m2 in a 7-week flowering time. This super resilient Indica-leaning hybrid thrives indoors and outdoors, and in all types of climates while producing mouth-watering sweet, fruity, spicy and earthy terps that translate into a delicious sugary hazelnut aroma. Expect an extremely relaxing and overall happy effect that’ll leave you with a huge smile from ear to ear. It’s the perfect strain for growers of all levels of experience seeking low-maintenance yet highly productive photoperiod varieties that deliver quality and quantity without extra effort. GG4 Sherbet FF grows chunky buds with long dark orange hairs and spade-shaped calyxes that get encrusted with trichomes by harvest time, giving them a gorgeous silvery-white appearance. This medium-sized photoperiod can reach up to 200 cm in height and yields up to 650 g/m2 while developing that typical hybrid structure. GG4 Sherbet FF grows with a stocky, bushy appearance, developing one sturdy main cola and fat side branches that support huge yields without much effort. This super-fast variety produces distinctive light-green buds with a high bud-to-leaf ratio, making your trimming sessions a breeze. It’s a top-notch resin producer that doesn’t need much maintenance and will thrive in almost every climate, rewarding growers of all levels with extremely flavorful resin that makes for outstanding hash end extracts." ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The Setup: This is going to be an outdoor grow, but I have started the GG4 Sherbet Fast Flower indoors as our weather is still too cold to put her outside (nighttime temp's dipping regularly into the 30's℉). The plan is simple... let her grow inside under a 19/5 light schedule until the nighttime temperatures stay above the mid 40's℉, at which point she'll be moved outside and transplanted into the soil which I have already setup and inoculated with beneficial microbes, and then let the fun begin!🤪💚 ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Weekly Updates: 7/9- Week FOURTEEN from seed and all I can say is... WOW!😍 I'm in 💞 with FastBuds GG4 Sherbet Fast Flower! This big girl, and I mean BIG, is approaching seven feet in height now and I'm hoping that she'll begin to transition into flower in the near future! Our summer weather continues to be hot, although we do get a break from the heat when we're lucky enough to get some rain which also helps mitigate the daily watering of the GG4 Sherbet FF. 7/11- Today my daily watering of the FastBuds GG4 Sherbet FF continues with 10g of straight well water from the garden hose. She continues to exhibit excellent vigor and resistance to pests. I have not used any Neem Oil on her for weeks now and even though I see a few leaf hoppers here and there, I see little to no damage from them.🤩👍 7/13- Today watering the GG4 Sherbet FF was postponed as it rained the better part of the day, which provided over an inch of much needed rain. 7/15- Our weather continues to be really hot with daytime temp's in the upper 90's Fahrenheit. If it does not rain I am watering everyday with 10g of well water. I will also be top dressing the FastBuds GG4 Sherbet Fast Flower next week in anticipation of her transitioning into flower! Thank you for checking out my diary, your positive comments and support make it all worthwhile! 💚Growers Love!💚😎🙏

Wie man sieht, haben die beiden F1-Samen ein enormes Wachstum gezeigt, während das Apple Flitter langsames Wachstum zeigte. Ich baue zum ersten Mal F1-Autoflower-Samen an und die Wachstumsrate ist wirklich beeindruckend. Nach drei Wochen habe ich Holzstäbchen zur Unterstützung hinzugefügt, und die Wachstumsrate der F1-Samen ist weiterhin beeindruckend. Sie sind bereits bereit, Blüten zu bilden. ご覧の通り、2つのF1種は驚異的な成長を見せたのに対し、Apple Flitterは遅い成長を示しました。私は初めてF1オートフラワーの種を育てていますが、その成長速度は本当に驚異的です。3週間が終わった時に木の棒を挿して整理しましたが、F1種の成長速度はやはり驚異的です。すでに花を咲かせる準備ができています

Ich habe 11-Liter-Töpfe vorbereitet und 25 g Root Max in jede Topf mit All Mix Erde gemischt. Für die Keimung habe ich einfach mit dem Finger ein Loch in die Erde gemacht und die Samen hineingedrückt. Dabei habe ich keinen Dünger verwendet, sondern nur Wasser gegeben. 11リットルの鉢を用意して、各鉢にAll Mix土にRoot Max 25gを混ぜました。発芽には、ただ指で土を押し込んで種を押し込む方法を使いました。この時は肥料を使わずに水だけを与えました。

Ich habe den Mikrobees auf das Doppelte erhöht und das Licht auf 60% gesteigert. Der Abstand zum Licht betrug weiterhin etwa 40 cm. Nach zwei Wochen konnte ich bereits den Duft von Cannabis riechen. Während die F1-Samen ein unglaublich schnelles Wachstum zeigten, zeigt der billige Samen Apple Flitter, wie zu sehen, ein sehr langsames Wachstum. ミクロベースを2倍に増やし、ライトも60%に上げました。ライトとの距離は引き続き約40cmを維持しました 2週目に入ると、すでに大麻の香りを感じることができました。F1の種は驚くほど速い成長速度を示したのに対し、やはり安い種のApple flitterはご覧の通り非常に遅い成長を示しています。
