Buenas noches familia, pues empezamos con el final. Nuestras power plant xL se han comportado fenómeno , recordamos que metimos 9 plantas de 3 variedades distintas y esta es la única variedad que perdimos espacio del indoor. Aun así sin palabras en cuanto al resultado. Planta con floración muy rápida, bastante vigorosa, lo malo es que al final tendrás que tutorar si o si, pero es por el peso de la flor. 56/59 días para cortar en floración, (y es Sativa).Se supone que tira 20%thc y su genética es South African sativa.

I am on so many learning curves right now with this grow and keeping diaries. It is a trip and I'm loving the journey. This Gorilla Glue is showing signs of the end of life and milky trichomes. I thought she'd be ready second but she's in the lead for harvest of the three. Can't wait to see what next week brings!

May 3, 2024 Day 78 This week is the last week of nutrients before a week or so of flushing. I'm still not seeing any fade, but most of the buds are turning a beautiful purple pink color. At least on Tropicana Cookies. Tropicana C isn't quite there yet. Maybe a few days behind. Some purple is starting to show though. No watering for today. I have the reservoirs full of diluted nutrients. I added a half gallon of plain PHed water yesterday. However, these plants aren't taking in much. The soil is getting saturated and the plants aren't drinking as much. I think it may be nutrient lockout. Or just the age of the plants. They slow down when nearing the end. How near, I don't really know. Maybe a week or so before harvest? Either way, the soil moisture used to be around 49% to 51% saturation. Now it's at 57% which has been unheard of through the whole run. I just can't tell which problem it is. Tropicana Cookies looks great! Lots of bud through the whole plant, not big, but getting denser and slightly fatter. As I said before, her buds are getting super purple with tons of orange pistils. The trichomes are a mix of clear, cloudy and amber. Mostly clear and cloudy with amber being about 5% throughout. Tropicana C looks great as well. One top is leaning hard and no wonder. It's covered top to bottom is dense bud. Still not big buds by any stretch of the imagination, but they seem hard as rocks. I haven't felt them to find out. I'll figure that out on trimming day after drying. She doesn't have the purple coloring like her sister, at least not yet. Some buds are starting to show the purple, but nowhere near as much. The lighting will be changed at some point within the week. Maybe closer to the end of the week. The light is far away enough where I shouldn't get any trichome issues. I definitely won't be getting light stress at all, so I may leave the light as it is for as long as I can. The environment is still a little wonky. The temp is the same, hovering between 75° and 76°. I'm doing my best to keep it under 77° as 78° can cause a potential breakdown of trichomes. Gotta be careful at this crucial time. Grow System Environment: Temp: 73.2° RH: 55.0% VPD: 1.23 kPa May 4, 2024 May the 4th be with you! Star Wars all the way! A little bit of a thing for these two today. First, I need to comment on how purple these buds are getting. Second, I think they only have days left. Maybe a week. But based on how they look and their trichomes, I wouldn't be surprised if they were ready in 5 days. That being said, I think it's time to start flushing. There are a couple reasons I think they are almost ready. For one, they have nearly all orange pistils. Just a few colas here and there. They still have a decent amount of white, but they will be gone later today if not tomorrow. The trichomes are a good 60% cloudy, 30% clear and about 5% amber. I'm leaving 5% out for margin of error. Finally, this could also be a lockout, they are taking significantly less water. At this stage it is to be expected, but I do have a nutrient issue with both of them. So it could be that as well. Or a combo of the two. All that being said, I think it's safe to say they are ready for flushing. Tropicana Cookies is noticably stronger than her sister, or her buds are just heavier. But, this lady has no hard leaning branches. Some leaning a bit inward, but that was how I trained them. On the other hand, Tropicana C has quite a few branches leaning hard. I had to prop one up against a stronger cola to keep it up in place. Another is leaning inward so I have that propped between 2 other colas to prevent light blockage. Both plants look kinda terrible right now with top leaves having spots everywhere from too much of something. Or lack of Phosphorus? Something. I need to learn this stuff. I think the lesson learned here is to make sure to time everything properly and not pay attention to every detail in a feeding schedule. The one I used was based on 3 weeks of veg and 6 weeks of flower. I had 5 weeks of veg and am now on week 6. Flowering seems to be on point, but the longer veg stage messed me up. So I will be following the feeding schedule provided by Advanced Nutrients. Just cut the nutrients way down. The light power will be dropped this week. I plan on dropping it 10% mid week and another 10% by the end of the week. The DLI should drop back down to 40 mol/m²/d inside and 38 mol/m²/d outside. By end of week, I plan to have the DLI down to 38 mol/m²/d. However, I have 2 other plants in the tent that are about a week behind these two. So I may have to change my plans for lighting and leaves it up for the rest of the week and drop it down to 38 mol/m²/d next week. But I don't think I have more than a week left. Oh well. I also won't be able to run a dark period. The plants are too big to fit in a 2x2 tent. So they will be harvested right away. I'll just keep the temp down below 75° for the rest of the week. The other strain is Banana Purple Punch, so it should benefit from the lower temps as well. I shouldn't have any trouble with mold or anything. The plants come out of the tent everyday and the airflow is fantastic. So the high humidity shouldn't be much of an issue. I'll do everything I can to drop it as much as possible anyway. Grow System Environment: Temp: 74.1° RH: 57.9% VPD: 1.19 kPa May 5, 2024 A bit to do today. Both ladies need top offs. Tropicana Cookies much less so. Tropicana C is almost empty while Tropicana Cookies is about half full. She has to be super close to harvest. The trichomes show it as well. Not quite there, but almost. That being said, I'm switching to Flawless Finish for the rest of the grow. They will need about a week of flushing and then I think they will be done. Tropicana Cookies is looking great! Her buds swelled up to an acceptable size. They definitely aren't nearly as big as my Gorilla Cookies, but that was an insane plant. Anyway, I'm not seeing any signs of fading. Just nutrient burn. However, I rarely get fade. Maybe it will start later this week. Anyway, I'll have to clean the reservoirs out. I may have to do that today. Just plain water though, then next watering will be Flawless Finish. Tropicana C is definitely putting on weight. Her colas are starting to pull more and more branches down. Leaning everywhere. I have 2 that will completely fold over, so I have to wrap them around other branch leaves to lock them in place. Her buds aren't purple though. It's starting to come through now, but nowhere near as her sister plant. However, her pistils are like glowing orange. Beautiful. She still has a good 40% white pistils. I like to see a minimum of 75%, but I rely mostly on the trichomes. Regardless of color, she is still quite the beauty. Both ladies are extremely strong to the nose now. Even with my exhaust fan at 100% power, it still doesn't pull all the smell out. It's could also be the combo of these two and the two Banana Purple Punch plants in there tent as well. Either way, they look and smell great! The lighting will have to stay where it is for the rest of the week. I don't think it will be a problem. I have the light 24" away from the plants and shouldn't have any stress at all. The reason being is those two Banana Purple Punch plants. They still have a good 10 days left while these two only have about 5 to 7 days left. So it will stay exactly where it is. The environment is driving me nuts. I can't for the life of me get the humidity to stay below 60%. I swear it's the gods messing with my shit. Lol. The temp is still controllable. I want to bring it to 74°, but then I risk higher humidity. But if I crank the heat, the temp could get too high and damage the trichomes. What a sticky place to be. I'll just have to open the door periodically throughout the day while this humidity is out of control. Grow System Environment: Temp: 73.0° RH: 59.8% VPD: 1.09 kPa May 6, 2024 Not a lot going on today. No watering needed, no light changes, nothing. Just some pics and environmental adjustments. Tropicana Cookies looks great! She's very close to harvest. I'll be checking trichomes again in 2 days. I'd say 5 days left on her. She just needs more amber trichomes. And she could do with less clear trichomes. Although, the majority of them are cloudy, this is an indica dominant strain. So I like a little more amber than that of a sativa. Honestly, it levels out the harvest time. Sativa's take slightly longer so less amber means less time. More amber on the indica strains takes slightly longer than their shorter lifespan. So they tend to level out for harvest time. Also, what I thought was more damage to the leaves, I'm starting to think it's the start of the fade. Even with the Flawless Finish flushing out the extra nutrients, the leaves are still showing "damage". So maybe it's the start of senescence? Or residual nutrients still in the soil. Probably that now that I think about it. It will take days for the issue to subside. I'd also like to note that the damaged leaves aren't crispy at all. They still feel like they are very healthy. So instead of cutting them off like I planned, I'm going to leave them on and use them for a timeline for the rest of the plants. Tropicana C also looks great! Her branches are bending over all over the place. Just the outside ones and taller colas. They may be small buds, but they are solid and a plethora of them. I'm finally seeing purple. So she is definitely the same phenotype, just got slightly delayed by probably 3 days or so. I'd say give this one another 5 to 7 days. It's could be up to 10 days which is no big deal as I have other plants in the tent that won't be done for another week or 2. So I'm not too worried. Both ladies have a crisp and fruity aroma. Even though it's a crispy smell, it's strong and engulfs the smell gland things in a citrus, sweet, fruity, I guess gassy and earthy aroma. They aren't taking as much water in anymore, so it's definitely nearly time. I don't really see it doing much right away. As I said earlier, Tropicana Cookies is still advancing in the nutrient burn. Maybe it was a deficiency the whole time? Someone mentioned missing Phosphorus which I think is Big Bud that I used at the complete wrong time. We aren't changing the light at all. The other 2 plants in the tent need it to be where it is for another week, and these 2 should be done in an week or less. The environment is still wonky with the temp at 75° and the humidity at 58% and bouncing into 60%. I managed to get my room down to 48% earlier, but now it's up to 52%. I'll have to do my best to keep up with the temperature in the tent. Try to keep it below 75° if I can. Also, I really cannot get the temperature to drop below 67° at night. The average is and has been 68° for the majority of the grow. However, last night's humidity was absolutely insane with an average of 67%. I really can't stand weather sometimes. It's a good thing I pull my plants out everyday and inspect them. Otherwise I think I'd have some mold issues. So far we are good to go. I'm also opening the tent periodically throughout the day to let more dry air in and clear out the moisture to room level. Today should be good with the lower temps outside and in turn lower humidity. Grow System Environment: Temp: 73.8° RH: 62.4% VPD: 1.05 kPa May 7, 2024 Not a lot going on today. I might top off the reservoirs tonight, but mostly tomorrow. So leaf damage continues to spread. I swear this better be senescence. It's weird, because it's spotty. All over the place. Like not rust, but yellow and orange. It still looks like leaf damage to me. I don't know. As I've said before, I don't get a lot of fade from my plants, so I'm not really sure what to look for. for example is this spotting. The timing is right for senescence, but I'm not really seeing solid color change. Is that "fade"? I can't see it as fade. It still looks like damage. I guess I'll see what happens over the next few days. Tropicana Cookies looks great! Her buds are almost all purple now. Some of the lowers are still green, but I don't expect the whole plant to turn purple. However, it may happen over the next few days. Tropicana C is weighing down a ton of tops now. They are falling over like dominos. Some are bending half way over. The tallest one has essentially collapsed under its own weight. I used some plant ties to hold it up with other tops. I had to weave a couple tops together just to keep them from falling over when I placed it back in the tent. Then they untangled and flopped over against the other plants and tent wall. A promising sign of some super dense buds. Considering how small they are, they must be heavy indeed. Super dense. I can't wait! The smell is so strong now that it's permeating through my air sealed door into the rest of the house when the tent is open. I even have the exhaust fan, that runs to the outside of the house, at full power. And an AC unit that exhausts outside as well. Still the smell is wonderfully overwhelming. Excellent! Lighting is staying the same until the end of the week. Then I'll be dropping it down to 36 mol/m²/d for the rest of the grow. It's to accommodate the other strain in the tent. The environment is getting better. The humidity my room dropped down to 42%, so the humidity in the tent dropped to 54%. Not good at all, but much better than 60%+ for days. The temp is at 76°. I'd still like to see it at 74°, but I'll be able to do that when I get the humidity under control. Grow System Environment: Temp: 73.7° RH: 54.6% VPD: 1.25 kPa May 8, 2024 Trichome Day! We only have pictures today. I'll do a video for next week. Speaking of next week, after checking the trichomes, I believe these two will be done by the end of next week. I know I'm pushing it off a bit, but they just aren't ready yet. Tropicana Cookies has started to fade. Her sugar leaves and some of the fan leaves are developing beautiful dark purples. The rest of the leaves are starting to lighten up as well. We are looking super good. Tropicana C on the other hand is a bit behind. I'd say 3 days maybe 4. No idea why, but she is. Also, her branches have to be weak AF to be bending all over the place. The buds aren't that big or heavy. So yah, just a weak plant. Definitely from my nutrient regimen. She smells great though and she is getting more purple in her buds, so she will hopefully turn out like her sister plant with super bright purple buds. I think they are the same phenotype, so this one should turn purple too. I think. One issue I may run into is timing. I need to harvest both plants at the same time so I can fit the 4 sour diesels I have in the 3x3 with the other 2 that are currently going. It might be a tight call. If they are indeed 4 days apart, I may overdo it with Tropicana Cookies and possibly underdog it with Tropicana C. We shall see. The lighting is just going to stay the same. There's no point in dropping it now. The other plants in the tent still need it and these 2 are so close to being done, it really won't matter. The environment is a nightmare. I cannot get the humidity below 60% now. It may go down later this afternoon, but not enough. It's maddening. I'll just keep opening the tent every couple hours to let fresh air in, even though the exhaust fan is running full speed. Grow System Environment: Temp: 74.0° RH: 57.6% VPD: 1.19 kPa May 9, 2024 It's the last day of week 11 and we are embarking on the final few days. Nothing to do today, but there are a few notes I'd like to make. Tropicana Cookies has mere days left. Her buds are almost all purple now from top to bottom. Not only that, but the leaves are also turning purple. Some of the bigger fans leaves are starting to fade. It started with the damaged ones and is slowly working through the other leaves. Just a few at a time. Something I noticed is how much water her container is holding. I may have to pull the wicks. I guess it makes the most sense. I'll do that later today. Mostly because the bottom of the container is dripping saturated. I'm worried it will cause some last minute over watering issues. Tropicana C is falling all over the place. And I mean all over. She has some weird bud growth as well. Some of the tops bent over, but not only that, folded over themselves where the tops are now facing the bottom of the container. It looks like I missed something when placing the plant back in the tent. It's just strange how she is doing this and the other one isn't at all. But this one... I feel like all these bending branches are going to impact the light coverage for the whole plant. Especially the outside where the branches are just falling over. I don't have a support like that, and the other tops are too weak to hold the outside branches up. I'll just have to deal with it. If it comes out messed up and larfy, I'll just use it for concentrate. I'm starting to get an idea of the potential yield. Both plants have tons of buds, but Tropicana C seems to have less dense buds, even though she in bending over everywhere. I'd say that Tropicana Cookies has a potential for 3 oz dried and trimmed. Tropicana C might yield 2.5 oz, but I'm thinking closer to 2 oz. We shall see. She still has a few days more. Maybe a week. The light is the same. It's kind of a good thing. The leaning branches still need light, and they are about 2" lower than the light. That dropped the DLI a little and now I don't have to worry. However, it didn't do anything for Tropicana Cookies. The environment is still kind of wonky. Day time temps are around 76° with the humidity still high at 55%. The night temp was really good though. The average was finally down to 66°. So that's good for the last few days. Grow System Environment: Temp: 72.6° RH: 58.6% VPD: 1.11 kPa

Dos semanas de vida para esta plántula, de momento tiene un crecimiento normal, las raíces ya sobresalen por la base buscando sustrato. La semana que viene la trasplanto a una maceta intermedia para continuar desarrollando un potente sistema radicular que me asegure un crecimiento vigoroso durante todo el cultivo. El sustrato del recipiente está especialmente preparado para potenciar el desarrollo radicular, debido a componentes como: Microorganismos sólidos (MMS), Bio Carbón activado con MM, auxinas, micorrizas y la técnica del encapsulado inferior para favorecer el desarrollo vertical de las raíces. Como detecté algún bicho en otra planta aplique diatomeas en polvo, de ahí algunas manchas blancas en las hojas y Neem como foliar, el bicho is dead!! Mantengo húmedo el sustrato con pequeños aportes de nutrientes como: ácidos húmicos, MMA, Miel, Melaza u ormus, el ph lo controlo con vinagre blanco de manzana que ayuda también al enraizamiento, el EC promedio de esta semana es de EC: 0.75. GROWING TIP: Agua!! Mineralizada, viva y estructurada. La importancia de la calidad del agua para el cultivo es vital para mi, he recorrido los manantiales, ríos y arroyos de mi zona con el medidor de EC y el de PH para conocer las aguas que me rodean, recojo siempre que hay oportunidad agua de lluvia de la terraza de un vecino, nunca me falta agua pura, desecho regar con agua del grifo. Para mi, y actualmente, la mejor mezcla de agua que puedo ofrecer a mis plantas es agua de lluvia 75% con otra de un manantial de montaña de agua alcalina (Carbonato cálcico PH: 9.2) y muy mineralizada (EC: 0.85), esta agua yo mismo la consumo regularmente, consigo una mezcla de agua pura con un EC alrededor de 0.19, me garantizo así el aporte de calcio y otros minerales. En épocas donde no llueve uso agua pura de manantiales y arroyos con EC de 0.3. Estas aguas las filtro y almaceno a obscuras en mi casa, la cuestión es que el agua parada pierde oxígeno y también desordena su estructura molecular haciéndola caótica. Para poder recuperar esta estructura y oxigenación el agua debe estar en movimiento como en la naturaleza, yo me ayudo de un agitador magnético para volver a tener agua viva, el agitador crea un vórtice implosivo que en 10 minutos pone las cosas en su sitio y carga de oxígeno nuestra agua, una vez hecho este proceso voy añadiendo los nutrientes uno a uno y sigo agitando hasta el final. El agua tratada con esta técnica, mejora la asimilación de nutrientes, el intercambio catiónico e inunda de oxígeno nuestro sustrato y raíces, también con esta técnica se pueden bajar las concentraciones normales de EC en un 30% y conseguir los mismos resultados, prueba y verás!! Saludos!! Hasta la próxima.

Today is the beginning of week 3 of flower. She is doing amazing, stretching a little faster I hope she stops soon. I'm running out of space to the upside of the lamp. I can tell she will put out a good yield.

📆 Semana 8 El cultivo sigue avanzando con inercia en esta fase final, con los cogollos terminando de coger cuerpo y firmeza. Los cálices se ajustan y compactan, dando una sensación más sólida y pesada en toda la estructura floral. La resina continúa acumulándose y aporta un recubrimiento más denso y visible, con tricomas en su mayoría lechosos y aún en evolución hacia su punto óptimo. La planta mantiene buen ritmo, centrando su energía en rematar calidad y terminar de llenar las flores. El conjunto se mantiene sano y uniforme, mientras el aroma se vuelve más profundo y persistente, marcando claramente la recta final del cultivo. Seguimos creciendo fuerte 💪!

Day 43-49 A lot of them are showing signs of going into bloom. Doing their stretch before bloom, so they need more nitrogen before they're done stretching. My own unbiased opinions about deep water culture.I love it.It's got the precision I need and control. If you like something more relaxed, living soil is your thing, but this is mine.I'm enjoying it.Everything's growing people have already done the research.I just gotta apply it.

ok so everything has gone fantastic , no nutrient burns at all , and have been slowly creeping up the base nutrients , i have stopped the cal mag and now adding house and gardens bud XL at full strength these girls are now in full swing of flower the Cal mag has made absolutely no difference too the yellow colour of this blackberry so I suspect it is just how this strain is as meany diary's on here of the same strain are also on the yellow side , but it's certainly not affecting the speed of the growth of her , i also bought a new ph stick this week , i have found when PHing the feed bucket that its best too have air stones in the bucket , add all nuts and then ph but do not use the feed that day as if you check the next day the ph is off again so i left it 24 hours after i add more ph down , and it seems too make the measurements alot easier and stable , i have bent down the main stems " without damaging them onto my netting too A keep the canopy all the same high so my lighting is covering all plants at the same distance and also it allowed the side stems too reach up too , i also was sponsored another new led light by kingbo this week so have added another 600watt led too the grow , so now have two 600's and one 900watt , and temps are still fine sitting at 24c lights on and 19-20 off , so am pleased with that , I accidentally bend the main stem last week while I was putting them under the netting too try and control the stretch , luckily it did not crack or snap the branch at all and she didn't droop on that branch at all and has healed already , it may or may not be related but as soon as it happened the side branches thickened up too the thickness of the main stem , this plant has over taken the rest in size even being a full week too 15 days younger , it's certainly not ideal but it really does not appear too have slowed down the growth and may well go in my favour , this lady really did stretch out from week 4 into 5 and is showing no sign of slowing down , her side branches are very thick almost as thick as the main stem , her leaf production was minimal and I have only had too remove very few too expose the bud sites , the yellowing seems too be recovering now and most of the plant is green now , Update , Now gone a lush green colour instead of that horrible yellow , and the buds have already started too purple , she has also stepped up a gear with her nutrient intake almost drinking 6 pints since Thursday , She seems too have slowed down on the stretch and has so meany bud site scattered all over her with as the diary name suggests black roses everywhere , and note too any seed banks reading this if there is not a purple stain out there already called black rose now is your chance lol and Iwant a sample pack first kinda like the tester :) Now defoliation , as you can see they really didn't seem too mind at all being stripped and within a couple of days they had all replenished the lost leaves and even this week olive had to pull the odd few off as they have grown out , Method , well all info now is simple , Anything I cannot tuck under something that is blocking a bid site with shade I remove too middle or bottom , Everything else stays , I just stand above the plant and pull off anything covering the sites , it's really as simple as that , I see some strip them until there is nothing left on but a few sugar leaves , but for me didn't like the look of the plants , for me the growing process is just as much fun as the fruits ,

🌸 Week 3 Flower – The Jungle Takes Over The girls are now towering at 1.20 m, turning our tent into a proper green jungle. Both phenotypes are thriving with thick stalks, lush foliage, and a dense network of branches promising a spectacular flower set. This week was all about control and balance. ✂️ Defoliation & Growth Management Although these plants have been allowed to grow naturally so far, their explosive stretch meant I had to step in. I performed a strategic defoliation, not because the plants were weak, but to: • Improve airflow through the canopy. • Ensure light reaches lower bud sites. • Slow vertical growth and help prevent them from outgrowing the tent. Even with a high ceiling, there’s still a risk of running out of headroom during the last stretch. Defoliating at this stage also redirects energy to bud formation instead of excessive leaf production. Note: During this process, a few branches were accidentally broken while moving them out for photos. I left this in the report and photos as a learning moment, large plants can be tricky to handle. This may be the last out-of-tent photoshoot before harvest. 🌱 Structure & Bud Development • Both phenotypes are highly branched, with bud sites forming all the way down the stems. • First signs of proper bud stacking are visible, with white pistils everywhere. • Plants look symmetrical, vibrant, and full of energy — a promising start to mid-flower. 💧 Feeding & Nutrition Base nutrients: • Aptus Regulator – 0.25 ml/L • CalMag Boost – 0.25 ml/L • All-in-One Liquid – 1 ml/L occasionally (soil already contains slow-release pellets) Bloom boosters (Plagron): • Green Sensation – 1 ml/L (multi-action bloom stimulator, PK booster, and terpene enhancer) • Sugar Royal – 1 ml/L (amino acid-rich biostimulant, improves aroma & resilience) • Power Buds – 1 ml/L (early flowering booster to promote faster bud set) This combined recipe ensures the plants receive balanced macro and micronutrients while enhancing flower development, resin production, and terpene expression. pH & EC: • Feed solution pH: ~6.0–6.1 • Feed EC: ~1.04 mS/cm (soil EC still at ~2.96 mS/cm, so feed is moderated) 🌡️ Environment • Soil temperature: 24–24.7°C • Air temperature: 29°C • Humidity: 67% • VPD: 1.37 kPa Conditions are slightly warm, but the plants are coping well. ⸻ 📌 Summary Week 3 of flower has been a turning point, from a lush veg canopy to a budding powerhouse. Strategic defoliation will help manage height and airflow, while the combined Aptus + Plagron feeding strategy aims to maximize flower density, aroma, and overall plant health. The structure is impressive, with a sea of potential bud sites that promise a heavy, aromatic harvest. 📲 Don’t forget to Subscribe and follow me on Instagram and YouTube @DogDoctorOfficial for exclusive content, real-time updates, and behind-the-scenes magic.

Okay guys, now this has been an eventful week. unfortunately, I can now only visit my plants on the weekend as I am sutying in another city and the plants are at my parents house. That has translated to the little tiny brown leaf I found last week turning into 3 - 4 semi-rotten buds. So yes, catterpillars. Little pesky green catterpillars were the ones eating the leafs and the ones that have now caused some bud rot on my autoflowers. To wich I have decided to do an emergency early harvest as you can see in the pictures above. Trichomes were more or less 10 - 20 % cloudy depending on the bud and some buds also had quite a few amber so they cound't have been that far from harvest anyway. I cut off the buds with rot and the buds nearst to them. luckily it was only 1 or 2 big buds on 2 of the 3 autos I have. The remaining auto is the foxtailing one witch I have not yet harvested and am now debating if I should just do it to not risk getting rot over this week I am away or let her ripen more. The process was cutting off the bad parts, discarding and then cutting off the buds with the stem off the plant. I have never harvested before so I dont know if it is useally done this way but anyway. After the early harvest wich I am sure many would frown upon I did something even morecontroversial and washed the buds in water+backing soda, water+hidrogen peroxide, just water rince and hung them to dry with a fan in front of them for about 2.5hrs. Now I'm a newb so I dont know if this works, but I read and saw a few posts and videos of people doing and explaining this process, and also asked outdoor growers of reddit to see if this is actually a thing, and yes it seems a few if not many people wash their outdoor buds in some way or another. I washed hoping that if there are any caterpillars in the buds that would kill or at least debilitate them.. none floated off while i was washing though.. so now im scared there are still some in my buds and will rot while im drying :( i checked each bud individually trying not to break them up but didnt find any caterpiullar. i only found one while washing the leafs I had trimmed off the plant before harvesting the buds. Anyway, I have bought anti caterpillar and anti fungal spray for tthe photoperiod plants wich seem to be doing okay. A part from some white powdery stuff on the leafs, maybe powdery mildew? Anyone know what can be done for PM ? Anyway, as usual, thanks for your support and comments! sorry for the long post hehe Edit: Totally forgot to mention this.. I think the foxtailing auto has gone hermaphrodite and polinated the other plants (?) I found a little dark ball at the bottom of one of the buds I have harvested, I picked it off because I didnt knoe if it was rot.. A SEED CAME OUT! Yeah.. So now Im thinking my plants have been pollinated by the foxtailer? Does this make sense? xD

Selectively harvested on day 76. Trichromes mature yet she was throwing white hairs from her foxtails still. Smells delicious. Will report back after cure with final totals, I haven't harvested the secondaries yet. I am giving them a couple days to see if they do any more. Very happy with the harvest so far, and as always Happy Farming, and stay safe out there folks! Edit 7 zips. Wasn't as dense as I had hoped on the lower colas, but dense at the tops. Really behind the eyes with a strong elevated platitude.

Green and Growing Up Great! She's Growing into her 9th week of Flower! She's Growing in my special blend of ProMix potting mix, a 1/2 bag of Earthworm castings and 2 light handfuls of Diatomaceous Earth mixed Up well for before transplanted! Diatomaceous Earth: Diatomaceous earth is made from the fossilized remains of tiny, aquatic organisms called diatoms. Their skeletons are made of a natural substance called silica. WHAT IS DIATOMACEOUS EARTH? In a nutshell, DE comes from the fossilised remains of small marine organisms called diatoms. Over a 30 million year period, these hard-shelled algae collected on the bottom of bodies of water, eventually forming into a type of sedimentary rock. Fast forwarding, it wasn’t until around 1836 that a German peasant Peter Kasten discovered the ivory-coloured, powdery substance while drilling a well in northern Germany. Ever since, the usefulness of DE for multiple purposes, including industrial and horticultural applications, has been well-reported. Just sprinkle some diatomaceous earth on top of your soil and watch mother nature's secret weapon work its magic.CONDITIONS THE SOIL When it comes to growing cannabis, everyone strives to provide the best soil to grow the best plants—but there’s always a way to make it even better. Making the soil a better medium is called soil conditioning, which is exactly what diatomaceous earth does. It works by improving the retention of moisture in your potting soil, holding a large amount of fluid and drying at a rate that’s much slower. This natural soil additive also helps to retain nutrients and allows for better oxygenation of the substrate. NATURALLY CONTROLS PESTS DE is an all-natural, safe-to-use substance that doesn’t harm the cannabis plant with toxic chemicals. The nature of diatomaceous earth makes it useful against most types of insect infestation you might be experiencing; and unlike chemical insecticides, insects can’t develop a resistance to the effects of DE. So once they’re gone, they’re gone for good. DE is an abrasive. and when used as an insecticide, it gradually scrapes away an insect’s exoskeleton, absorbs the fluids, and dehydrates insects and other critters to eventual death. IMPROVES PLANT STABILITY When using DE in your soil, it can be especially beneficial as it frees up nutrients so that they are made available to the plants as needed. This works via the silica content of DE being absorbed into the plant tissue, which helps improve the plant’s ability to respond and receive more nutrients as DE activates. This in turn results in greater yields and better stability under small pH fluctuations! https://divineseeds.net/ https://instagram.com/divine.seeds?igshid=osxe2v7en33v https://divineseeds.net/ Thanks Again to All my Friends, Family's, Teams, Sponsors, Followers and Subscribers!!!
