Grow Journal Week 9: Harvest Time 🌿 Hello dear growers and growerettes, All the ladies are finally done! Although each plant turned out a bit differently, I’m thrilled that the trichomes are consistent this time. The plants took slightly longer than what the manufacturer suggested, but they’re now ready. I’ve trimmed individual branches, removed large “no sugar leaves,” and hung them upside down in the tent. They’ve been drying for seven days and should be ready for trimming by the end of this week. Equipment and Soil Review Irrigation: I plan to replace the Blumats with autopots for the next grow. While the Blumat drippers work, they did flood my tent once, which wasn’t ideal. Soil: I’ll continue using the living soil from Floranics, but this time I’ll use the ready-made soil and their new product. This run was with the old product and self-activated. I'm very pleased with the time savings and the results, which are more than satisfactory for the effort. Exciting Upcoming Events I’m excited to share my smoke report soon and to see how the rosin from Banana Krumble turns out. You'll be the first to know how it goes. Until then, happy growing!

I must say, these ladies do not want to finish! I still haven't observed any amber trichomes and they're getting rather plump! The flowers are beautiful and smell complex! Strong scents of diesel, floral and sweet. I have dropped the lights to 75% and have reduced the photoperiod to 10/14 in an attempt to push them to finish. The resulting DLI is 32. The temperatures have been brought down. 70°f during the day and 58°f during the night. I am highly anticipating the initiation of the dry-back, which is signaled by the first sign of amber. Less than two weeks left I would guess, but these ladies can take all the time they need. I have very high hopes for making top-shelf flower as well as trying to make some fresh frozen bubble hash for the first time! I'm surprised there hasn't been signs of hunger. But they appear happy and healthy! While there hasn't a nitrogen deficiency, the leaves are adopting a purple on some leaves. Very pretty! I'm looking forward to doing some updates about whether or not I saw sucess in the bubble hash. As well, I would like to update about my drying and curing methods. I've been doing research on the mechanisms involved in a dry and cure that provides the best smoke! My previous runs all had particular issues, whether it was poor enviornmental control or failing to purge the the off-gassing of drying flowers. I have high hopes! The time is coming soon and I'm excited! Thanks for tuning in, take care!

ITTY-BITTY..! The strain Royal Dwarf from RQS lives up to its name! She's a genetic mixture of Skunk + Ruderalis And is looking to be a very powerful lil Autoflower. Short. At only 15 inches tall and yet growing 30 nuggets so far! She (Itty-Bitty) is one of the plants I've selected to enter into the 2024 Autoflower Cannibus Cup which is taking place in Las Angeles next year! Wish me luck you guys!!!

Today I don't give a lot of nutrients, but I focus on the use of acid and alkali. And this is the day I clear the big leaves again. Hope your enjoy.🙏💚🥦

End of 6th week (day 42) in bloom. Plants have stopped growing in height. Colas are filling fast so i put some big sticks to stabilize them and avoid crushing down from weight. One of nine plants is about 10 days back in bloom as it started to show signs of sex in day 20 after i changed the light circle! No nutrients this week and generally i don;t feed much. I do some light feeding mostly weeks 1-4 in bloom. I mix some bio nutrients in the soil (light mix) before transplant. These strains are 100% sativas and need low N and moderate P/K

todo muy bien! esperando paciente el desarrollo de los cogollos, conociendo y viendo los puntos de maduracion asi como la fertilizacion ajustando a su maximo que creemos posible para incentivar que los cogollos engorden, ahora en adelante les hare segumiento de la grande principalmente, que es la que cumple con la edad del diario, ya que las otras como se explico en un principio venian recien cultivadas por eso tienen un par de semanas de retraso , tambien hay una hermafrodita, que al detectar como comentamos semanas anteriores aplicamos al tecnica vista de un cultivador mexicano, consistia en romper los brotes de machos las pelotas con el fin de que no vuelvan a salir, dejando solo los pelos estigmas de las hermbras, si bien el cogollo queda maltratado, al parecer se detiene el crecimiento, asi que estamos viendo como rinde ese experimento.

Sorry I was away for a bit. Spilt a pint of beer and then a pint of water on my laptop and had to get it repaired. Lost everything on my SSD so tryna build back. We're now in the penultimate week, i'm using Dragon Force from Shogun for a final boost before I flush next week. I have added a dehumidifier into the mix. Had some issues initially with the reservoir filling up to quick and emptying it being a pain so I attached the pipe to drain water back into the oxypot. Unfortunately I connected it badly and it leaked into the tent creating a spicy situation. I managed to mop up the water and reconnect it so it now drains correctly into the oxypot. It seems to be working. I had it set to 50% these last few days and it reduced the RH from 70% to 51%. I've now set it to 40% to try and boost that last minute resin production. Got 4 clip on fans and the airflow relatively high to keep the air as fresh and dry as possible. Had some rot on the last crop, determined to not let that happen this time. I removed the second OHS plant because it was stunted and the 2nd Morpheus plant was so large she could use the space and has done nicely. The morpheus 2 is dominating the space but has absolute monster colas so I forgive her. There's this mutant bud pictured. Wasn;t sure what was going on so after doing some research it seems it's either polyploidism or fasciation. I'm not exactly sure how to tell the difference but it looks cool as hell and I've excited to harvest, trim and smoke that badboi.

Trimmed them, everything is filling in nicely. See signs of nuet burn flushed them and they reacted nicely. Soil has poor drainage need more perlite or change the soil next time.One plant is almost finished compared to the other 2. This is partly due to air flow. Need to get another circulating fan. Seen some fruit flies will need to deal with these so they dont eat the flowers. Lights are close to the plants but I can not move them any further away. With a few weeks left this might cause a problem. Will have to keep an eye on it. I will have to, for the next grow, change how I set up the tent. Uploaded video of plants to show the progress on all 3 sharks.

Ya alimentandose mejor cada una de las plantas,de ahora en adelante tendran que crecer mas rápidamente para luego pasar a floracion en un par de semanas lo mas probable.
