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.

Eva Seeds High Level 27th Jan 2020 Welcome back, This should be the last week of vegetation for the main plant (number1) as she is in full stretch mode and has lots of early preflowers on her. She is really starting to show her Sativa genetics , with the long branches climbing in an unruly manner all over the place. Luckily for me I have tie points above the plants to hopefully contain their growth. She is a pretty big girl at about 2 meters high and well over a meter wide . Plant number 2 never attained the vigor the other seemed to have and Didn't really take off that much after the container transplant lke I thought she would. Not to worry tho as this is the plant I intend to play around with by pollinating buds with feminised pollen from other strains. All in all I'm fairly happy with the way things are progressing and I should get a few ounces off the big girl when she's done . Both plants were given 1 cup each of the bud n bloom soil amendment plus some High tea that I had brewed up for 24 hours . Thankyou for stopping by I'll be back next week with another update 👍

People of the ganja world, here we are, he second plant has gone down, we apologise to anyone affected by PTSD from the two towers, it was not our intention to harm you with the similarity. Our Buddy Buddha from the start to the end lived its life next to Powell, they were close! Now that the final curtain has been drawn.. or tent flap, it is with a sad heart that we at the "In the Closet with Two Strains" Studio will be saying goodbye. She was never the most impressive plant, kept feeling like she would bloom more but the conditions were never truly right for her. Both plants had their branches sliced at the stem and large leaves removed, this purposely slowed drying down to maximise end flavour. They were both washed in cleaning pools to prepare them for their final journey in the tent. With a sad heart we wish you farewell Buddy, we will see you and Powell soon... IN OUR SMOKE REPORT! Yes it is time to get these ladies dried and ready to serve their purpose, life is a party, so let us have one! See you soon folks!

This is exactly the 🇲🇦 morroccan 🇲🇦 way of sifting resin from kief. Traditionally, apart the hand rubbing method, dry sifting through a mesh is the most used way to obtain resin, from 🇦🇫 Afghanistan 🇦🇫 or 🇳🇵Nepalese 🇳🇵 Mountains to 🇲🇦 Morocc 🇲🇦 Rif passing through Bekaa valley in 🇱🇧Lebanon 🇱🇧. The average size of meshes used vary from 90 to 180 microns and are mostly made by silk and for this reason uneven. I think the most productive ways to sift are Dry Ice and  rotating pollinator + CO2, I've tried a DIY pollinator built by a friend and it can reach up to 20/25% of resin extracted at 120 microns and 15% at 90 microns. But smell and taste don't reach that traditionally extracted but this is another story. Morroccan way is good compromise between a stashbox or more evolute methods. It requires less than 10 dollar of expenses. You need: a basin or pot  without handles a heavy-duty plastic bag that contains the basin a pair of chopsticks a good 120 microns net an elastic band tape Kif or trim q.s. Here is the link where I buy my meshes. Very high quality, customable size and material (steel or nylon) and length and very kind vendor on AliExpress https://a.aliexpress.com/_uwfQzq Drum for 3 minutes. .....perhaps you will find that you have an innate talent as a drummer, throw the shit away and put your head right......

Nothing new. Typical spring weather in midwest; 80 one day, 35 the next. Keeps me active flipping between humidifier, dehumidifier, heat, and ac; fun! Have started to monitor trichromes. Plants seem as they will all finish at different times; basing that on orange hairs at the moment. Pics/vid taken 85/41F days after breaking the soil.

No signs of flowering yet, maybe slight formation of calxys beginning. Been spraying with molasses, neem, cal mag and liquid kelp (bioweed) and superthrive just once to hopefully delay flowering to increase yield. P.S. if youre new at growing DO NOT try this unless you know what your doing with hormones etc. Theres a chance it can turn your girls hermie. Just be aware!

Mrs Banner aka Bruce banner #3 aka the Triangle grow, is Budding away nicely. I've given her, her last feed of nutrients so she will be on just water now until harvest. I've been concerned shes a little on the small size but just as the name suggests she starting to "Hulk up." I'm hopefull of a harvest in about two weeks, but with a few grows under my belt, I know that 1) two weeks may turn into six 2) patience wins the grow game

Moving along, no issues. Bring them outside around 10 am and back in around 8pm to put back under the blurples. Starting the early veg doses of nutrients with each feeding. I’m keeping the soil pretty dry in between watering.

Langsam bilden beide Terpene. Für mich sind Terpene der wichtigste Punkt bei Cannabis. Der Geschmack bzw. Terpene haben großen Einfluss auf die Wirkung, deshalb bin ich sehr auf das Terpenenprofil gespannt und ob ein Phenotyp vielleicht ein Keeper wird. Das ist nicht mein erster Run, aber die Vorfreude ist genauso groß wie beim ersten Mal. Ich denke ich konnte die Sorte Melonade Runtz (fem) bis hier hin schon ganz gut repräsentieren 💚🍀

October 16, 2021 Both girls looking yellow and burnt. Overwatered and possibly underfed. I did let the soil dry out then added a 1/2 gallon of water that was mixed with Neptune's Harvest Fish and Seaweed (this stuff smells awful). Let's see what happens. I also think my Recharge has gone bad - its not bailing me out like it usually does. I contacted Real Growers and they are sending me a replacement. Awesome customer service!!!
