Since I'm playing catch up with documenting my first grow cycle, I'm going to combine weeks and just give updates. I mentioned in the last weekly comment about adding the wicking bases and how that can be potentially problematic. Well here's where I noticed the issue but mostly with the Orange Sherbet sativa. I started noticing changes in color and leaves that didn't look good to me. Fortunately, I have a couple of great friends who also grow and have been able to take advantage of their knowledge and experience along the way. I highly recommend doing this if you have friends who also grow. Anyway, I had one of my friends come over and it was determined that the issue was due mainly to overwatering. We decided that with the wicking bases in addition to the humidity level in the tent, that the plant was staying too wet. Catching this quickly and addressing it is huge with autos since they tend to be more delicate that regular plants (as I understand things anyway). To address the overwatering issue, I immediately stopped using the wicking bases and let the plants dry out for about a week. I did no watering at all for the week but kept the humidifier going. That really helped correct what was going on. I then decided that I was no longer going to use the wicking bases at all and only do top watering. You'll see as I move forward with documenting this grow cycle, that I changed my mind again on this once the plants went into flower. But hey, what do you expect, this was my first ever grow.

First time trying this strain and seed company. I have an Altoids box that i lined with sand paper (120 git) i shake my seed(s) for about 30 seconds to a minute in the box. I then soak them in water for about 15-18 hours. When done soaking i put the seeds on a plate with paper towels until i get a tap root that is atleast 1/8" prefer 1/4". Then at that point i put them in a Jiffy Pod until about 1.5 - 2.0 inches.

Well wow . This is quite a new and exciting experience for me . These FAST strains by humbolt seem like the way to go . 1. Great explosion if growth but without stretching the distance between nodes is so tight I swear they crossed it with an actual BUSH . So its didnt just get lanky as F it grew stew girth just as quick as height . 2. Great healthy .... EVERYTHING . Frow roots to cola and everything in between. 3. Response to training is 5 out of 5 . Almost can watch them grow. This gives the "good" grower a huge advantage because recovery time seem to go from a weak of healing with the photosensitive to a 3-4 days with the fast

She is now coming into preflower and loving the new T5's. She is growing nice and bushy with future tops shooting for the stars. The stretch is definitely near. She will continue to be tied down and has been pruned and defoliated as needed to give her that sexy shape i want her to have in flower. Her terpines are beginning to be noticeable and is of lemons, earthy notes, and loud gas. She is now also getting kelp extract added to the nutes. She is growing very nicely and i could not be happier at the moment. So far OSSC has my attention as their phenotypes have been very nice.

End of week 8! Took the girls off their nutes and starting the flush. Lowered the light intensity for 2 reasons. 1. It’s hot as balls and 90+ with no Silca could be an issue. They actually seem to be much happier already with only being a few degrees lower. 2. I want to see if less intense light/heat could replicate the end of the season sun if they were growing au natural 🤷‍♂️🏻

Hey Leute, heute ein kleines Update vom Blütetag 32. Ich würd mal sagen die Woche is nicht ganz so rund gelaufen, war aber auch nur ne Frage der Zeit bis die ersten Fehler passieren und sich erste Probleme zeigen. Insgesamt bin ich zufrieden, der Stretch is vorbei und die Pflanzen trinken mittlerweile deutlich weniger. Leider hatte ich Temperatur und Feuchtigkeitsprobleme und die Fußbodenheizung mögen die Mädels glaub auch nicht wirklich. Die Papaya Frosting macht sich immer noch prächtig, ist Frosty as fuck und riecht echt richtig nice. Bei den andern drei geht alles bisschen langsamer und sie sind glaub nicht ganz so happy, aber richtig übel haben sie mir auch noch nichts genommen. Die Blue Cheese hat braune spitzen die sich nach oben rollen, mein verdacht kalte Zugluft und zu warme Wurzeln von der Fussbodenheizung (steht direkt vor der zuluft). Irgendwie haben auch alle Lila spitzen und die Pink Chai bekommt grade ganz Lila Blätter, hatte mal ein gekipptes Fenster vergessen und es war während der Lichtphase nur 19 grad. Andere Idee wäre Kaliummangel durch zuviel Kalzium, aber eher unwahrscheinlich weil die eingerollten Blätter angefangen haben als ich das Fenster vergessen hatte. Die Woche werd ich bisschen Greenhouse Booster geben und mal CalMag wieder runterfahren, so ganz hab ich kein vertrauen das die Erde durchhält bis zum Schluss. Schönes Wochenende wünsch ich euch! 🖖

Sep 27: still lots of buds remaining and did a big defoliation to expose them to sunlight. Very nice and the hash resin looks terrific. Awesome. Oct 1: the remaining lower buds are almost ready, and I will likely harvest them this weekend. There are lots buds left - like 1 kg of wet kind of a lot. Oct 3: harvested lower buds totalling 280 + 1106 g wet for hash plus 1350 g from previous. Total wet of 2736 g buds equivalent to 620 g dried buds. Rock on.

Primera vez cultivando clones, me fue mejor de lo que esperaba gracias a una buena iluminación, excelentes fertilizantes y un poco de experiencia que vamos adquiriendo con cada cosecha ✌️🏾

Die Pflanze wurde Mitte letzter Woche an Tag 66 geerntet. Getrocknet wurden die Blüten 6 Tage lang bei einer Luftfeuchtigkeit von 53% bevor sie nun ins Glas kommen. Getrimmt wurde die Pflanze trocken.

At this Time i check every days the trichomes that they are getting brown. I start flush at the days 54-55-56-57 approximately depend on the plants and trichomes at this moment. I got a bit of problems of température for the night because of the days more hot.. but I managed with air conditioner to get between 19 and 20 degrees during the night. I got some big and old leaves started to be a bit yellow on moby dicks. I think it’s a good sign at this moment of the flowering time. I will try to managed as better as I can to be on time with the flush and the maturation of the buds. I got also some smalls bugs but no worries for me, I wait about minimum 6 days before watering so it let the earth on top really dry so no developement of theses bugs and their eggs. If any questions just put comments or advices please growers 👍 Good luck with all your grows guys ! Peace love weed ✌️😊

I’ll be most definitely harvesting these next week! I will continue with water from now until they are ripe and ready! They are absolutely smelling like a sweet shop! Like I dipped my head in a pic and mix bucket, like Im wreck it Ralph and I’ve crashed into candyland! Makes my mouth dribble! The buds are starting to swell too so thinking next 7 days I’ll be ready! Next upload will be harvest hope you like buddies! I’ll be hang drying this time! As I’ll have space and a tent to do it in as before I didn’t and used the brown bag method! But I can maintain between 14c - 18c with a humidity of 42 percent! So I’ll hang dry this time! Any suggestions?? Let me know! I’ll be putting 2 fans on them for air circulation and a air vent only sucking out as it will draw air in on its own and keep the humidity lower in the tent while drying!
