So all the pictures that I posted on this week's diary are just pretty much random. The only thing I did for this week was give more toppings so each plant was topped four times. As of now, each plant will have a total of eight main colas, if I don't do anymore tops that is... I didn't have time today to really do a detailed post on every cultivar and the difference between phenos. so for week 6 I'll do a detailed cover of my girl so I'll do a female comparison for each breeder and cultivar!!

September 25 > Harvest at dawn for the big girl. The usual routine... except I shot a time-lapse video this time to play with the camera I won last year. Clipped the top buds first - then the base. Took me 2 hours to wash all that -rinse - repeat. ---------------------------------------- Well this was an interesting summer with this pair of girls. I learned that I don't really need a container larger than 10 gallons in order to grow very large plants (in my neck of the woods anyway). Now when I say large I mean how much space they take up on my patio. I'm allowed to grow 6 legally but 4 eats up pretty much the whole patio. And the reality is I don't need to grow plants that large. The outdoor yield will last well into next year for me and everybody I know. So next summer I plan to do much more serious pruning to limit the scope and shape of the girls I grow outdoors. I also learned that I don't need an inverted tomato cage style support if my container is larger than 5 gallons. The Durban I grew last summer was in a 5 gallon container and there's not enough weight in there to keep her grounded. Once up to 10 gallons you won't want to lift the container much and there's enough weight in there to keep things stable. At the moment I've listed 450g as a dry weight for both plants (updated to 458g final). I haven't actually weighed the 2nd plant yet and won't even trim her for about a week or so (I'll be back to update diary). The first girl came in at 235 grams. I got pretty ruthless throwing away small budlets and trim this morning as it took me 4 hours to take this big girl down and wash her up. That's only because I spent half a day yesterday trimming Cream & Cheese and moving Northern Lights around... and it's been over 95 degrees both days... so I'm ready for a rest. Cannabis harvesting is not easy labor. Diary note > There was a software malfunction a week or so back and I was unable to add a new flowering week, whereupon it was determined there was a limit of 26 weeks at that time... so I didn't add any more weeks after that until the harvest week. When I added the harvest week, it appears the malfunction had been corrected because I COULD HAVE added a new flowering week at that time. I think there's only a week missing. Differences can be noted with dates on the photos. If I had a problem this summer it's because I was too anxious to get going after a long winter nursing shoulder surgery and I didn't pay proper attention to the lighting ramifications when the instructions were there for me, and subsequently started too early. Next year I plan for an early crop of auto flowers to keep me occupied until the proper time for a regular crop. --------------------------------------- September 30 > Trimming and processing complete. I really manhandled the big girl with the Trimbag, largely because I knew I was gonna have a pound of herb on my hands (way more than I will personally consume) and I wanted to minimize my hand trimming. So when I say manhandled here, I mean I ran it through the process TWICE, using about 40 rotations/spins each time. It probably would have helped to be a tad drier, but we're entering a cool spell now and we've run out of time. Mother Nature has decided to turn off the heater... which has turned my Purple Berry Kush a nice shade of purple... but that's tomorrow mornings's harvest... <sigh>... anyway... where was I... oh yeah... AMNESIA... <hehe> Trimbag generated trim on 1st pass = 217 g Trimbag generated trim on 2nd pass = 90 g Trim generated by hand after that = 186 g Final bud weight for big girl = 223 g Clearly, comparing weight of trim generated by hand vs by the Trimbag here you can see the result of my "manhandling". Little girl was in a 10 gallon pot and generated 235 g buds and 360 g trim. Big girl was in a 15 gallon pot and generated 223 g buds and 493 g trim. Final total bud weight 458 grams for both plants. Hope anybody following along learned something this summer. I did. 😎 The trick is to not make the same mistake twice. That's kinda why we're all here. Kinda. ✊

Nov. 5 - start of week 6 and this grows so far gone off without a hitch. Third node on each side come’n out now so expect to be topping some time this week. Until then it’s all keepn er spread and low until we have our last 4 tops. The clone experiment is a 2/3’ds fail. The last one is hangn in there but probably just dying slower than the other 2. THANKS FOR CHECKn er out. More pics and video to follow.👊👍😎👌 Nov. 6 update - photos and weekly vid uploaded. Added a little blurb about topping in response to a fellow grower's question. This community rocks and the constant support and advice from everyone is greatly appreciated. Cheers y'all!😎👊✊ Nov. 7 update - so I lied and she stretched out from her second nodes over night. Bent er down a little and reset the thing ties. Alls good! Nov. 10 update - they’re drinking a consistent 3L a piece on a 3:1 nute feed to ph/calmag only regimen and loving it. Trimmed off some fan leaves dragging in the dirt and covering the first set of tips. Was hoping to top again this week but it’s starting to look more and more like next week at the this point. That 4th node just hasn’t stretched stretched out enough yet. Alls good!👍 Background After the batshit nonsense with this years outdoor grows getting jacked, I need some kush and I need it fast! This girls an indoor grow in the cabinet and she'll be manifolded and defo'd for 8-10 fat ass colas. They’ll spend a first week or so under a cfl assembly while the last harvest dries out in the cabinet. This grow is going to be nute sched. heavy and will hopefully test the limits of my smaller grow space (2sq/ft). Ive had my eye on a critical & kush cross for awhile and really looking forward to seeing this one grow out. Thanks for take'n a peek, stayed tuned, and happy grow'n folks! 👊

For the Grow section on my page: Throughout the germination stage, I explored three distinct seed germination techniques: the direct soil implantation, immersion in a hydroponic medium, and the classic paper towel method. My tests involved the Gods Gift autoflower from Premium Cultivators, Northern Lights from Royal Queen Seed Bank, and the F1 Epsilon strain, also from Royal. My primary focus, however, has been on the F1 Epsilon strain. As part of my shift towards commercial operations, I'm currently pushing the potential of these seeds to achieve maximum efficiency and productivity. I'm in the midst of identifying the optimal strains for my commercial venture. My objective, quite simply, is to strike an optimal balance between quality and yield for my future cannabis crops. With astute business planning and leveraging emerging laws, I plan to provide these products at a significantly lower price than my competitors. End of Germination Stage - Staring Vegetation Stage Day 9 - I inadvertently oversaturated my plants with nutrients, which led to the immediate demise of two plants. A key lesson learned was that utilizing old woolite medium is not advisable. Instead, using dirt plugs proves to be a more effective method. Moreover, it's crucial to ensure that nutrients are introduced directly into the water supply to avoid any potential harm to the plants. Additional Note: For enhanced root stability and quicker access to the water supply, it's important to situate the dirt plugs deeply within the pebbles. Also ensure germination process as follows: 12 hour soak, drop into soil plug deep into hydroponics pebble medium.

The legendary Runtz is getting louder by the day. Every time I unzip the tent it’s like stepping into a fruit-candy store… except this one hits you in the face. It’s so sweet and intense that I keep leaning in for “just one more sniff” until my nose (and stomach) basically tap out. Candy vibes turned up to max.Bud development is going great: they’re stacking, getting denser, and putting on size. They’re also not the classic “textbook” buds, the shape is pretty unique. A few tops look a bit foxtaily, but I’m calling genetics on this one, not stress, because she’s looking happier than ever and everything’s staying nicely in range.I’m pretty sure this is her final flowering week. Under the scope the trichomes are almost all cloudy, only a few still clear, and I’m starting to spot some amber, so yeah, the countdown is officially on.That’s all for now. Tips, thoughts, and “I’d do it differently” comments are always welcome. Happy growing everyone!

DAY 71 F: Well a day overdue for the update but I have been a busy fellow in the real world. The Girls scout cookies have dried enough to be considered for jarring. They have finished so perfectly and so damn tacky too. They smell of sweet candy after a lollipop lick. So nice. I have been taking samples the past week of so and drying them . temptation won.lol Idont expect a huge yield from their size but the quality is bang on the money. The Amnesia haze ladies are so so close now . They are rock somid still and have really packed the trichs on , a little swelling has been noticable but not the second flush of pistils I was hoping for. #1 and 2 are going to be left until day 77 at least , so another week but the #3 lady has got to go into the dark period now I think. She was the girl I confused as a gsc too so had her dragon force very early in that respect. Seeing how faded out she has got during the last week has helped drive the decision to get her out now. She will be in the dark for 48 hours then trimmed for drying. They will all be fed just water now to use up the remaining nutes in the pots to the end. The critical cheese is in mid flush of her newest pistils and thankfully is swelling nicely due to that fact. She has a really fuel/ nail polish heavy aroma at present but I can smell the sweet tang too. She looks like her yield could be a good one for what looked like a gangly specimen for the past 12 weeks. Lol . One of criticals finest qualities I think. All in all a good week for the ladies if not a calm one. Let's see what next week brings. Be safe and well growmies.

Big Buds, easy to harvest. This is my first haze plant. I cloned 22, but all died. The taste: 60% incense,30% peach, 10% lemon(or something citrus).

This week everything continues to progress smoothly with no major changes. I slightly reduced the LED intensity, and the plant is now receiving around 650–700 PPFD to keep the environment balanced during flowering. For now, I’m just maintaining stable conditions and letting the flowers continue developing 🌸💪
