AAAnd there you have it. A nice experience, my second time making seeds! I harvested the first day of week 15. A lot to say about this experiment. It came out awesome, lots of seeds (more than 100!) Wich I also tested and came out with the exact same phenotype. I added some more pictures of the outcome and of the seeds, cause I don't have much more data about the harvest! Sorry for the last time haha! Also! Leave a comment if you want to see more old diaries, I might have 4 or so documented like this, Including the first test of the seeds Wich you see some pics here 🤞.

6/13/2023 Week 10- Day 1 of Flower (Day 131 overall) (Day 70 of Flower) Auto Pilot Day 6.. Checked the Trichomes and the bud density and both are looking good.. Definitely needs a little more time for the Trichomes to be where I like, so based on my check I think we are still looking right around the end of the competition 22June to be done and ready for harvest. I do like that the fade is coming in the leaves nicely, so my chart I think is dropping off the Nitrogen exactly like it is supposed to. 6/14/2023 Week 10- Day 2 of Flower (Day 132 overall) Auto Pilot Day 7.. Decided I would take some contrasting pics today with my light up to 100 and my light all the way on Dim. I hope you enjoy the pics. 6/15/2023 Week 10- Day 3 of Flower (Day 133 overall) Auto Pilot Day 8.. Decided to take a look at the Trichome's today and Check to see where they are at and honestly if I might ho ahead and start my flush tomorrow and harvest on Sunday. 6/16/2023 Week 10- Day 4 of Flower (Day 134 overall) (Day 74 of Flower) Today I pulled an Armageddon however instead of darkness they are going to get 48 hours of light. The reason why they are going to get light instead of dark is when I was taking out the netting a lot of the buds were so heavy they fell over and exposed some areas I really want to get some light to... so 48 hours of light at 40% while I watch what should be a beautiful final fade as the plant eats up the last Nutes. If anything goes wrong I can abort take the photos and cut so will pay really close attention to how it is looking over the next 48 hours. Added 30 Gallons of PH only Water. Reduced Lighting to 40% removed program time off. 48 hours of light. 6/17/2023 Week 10- Day 5 of Flower (Day 135 overall) (Day 75 of Flower) I had someone tell me that a few growers had done as I did and Gone Armageddon on the plants. Filling it with PH only and said the plants did not respond well and they were taken out of the comp at the very end because they felt like the pictures just wouldn't come out right. Even though I did go Armageddon, The PPM is at 353PPM with the residue of what was left in the buckets after draining as well as what I am getting from the TAP so I think they are doing good but I am checking them every few hours to see how they seem to be doing and I think they are doing good still and are on track. I also started prepping the area for the pics tomorrow T-24 Hours until Chop 6/18/2023 Week 10- Day 6 of Flower (Day 136 overall) (Day 76 of Flower) (Harvest Day) What a day.. what a day.. what a day.. as I was setting up and trying to figure out how I was going to get my pics #3 stems started breaking, it fell over and other stems broke.. So no really stunning competition photo for her, she had such a nice purple fade.. #2 stayed up in the Tent so that is the one I had to go with to submit for the contest. I wet trimmed them as they went into the tent and they took up three rows hanging in tent. I also decided I wanted to try some so I put a little in the freeze dryer for a 48 hour smoke test.. I will weigh it and add that to my total weight for the plants when it is all done.

Hey guys, update week 2 this week I decided to do a video update to change it up, I also didnt take the plants out of the plant this week just gave water. They are all happy and grow at a nice rate, still no fertilizer just water in Sonnenerde living soil, even though the size of them compared to the pot size makes me worry a bit. Lets see what the next week has in store as we continue this journey together. I have to say I like these genetics a lot, all making nice trichomes and developing a beautiful aroma, solid plants, not one of the 4 doing funky things. Solid genetics !

Day 57 😁👌all the queens are ok 🙏 Day 58 the queens got some fertilizer 💪😃👍 Day 59 what should i say... everything seems to fine 😃🙏👍 Day 60 the queens got some fertilizer 💪😃👍 Day 61 all queens are in good shape 😃🙏

Ich hab mit der Spülung begonnen. Gespült wird für 1-2 Wochen.

Today, on day 57, the plants have gained height and transitioned to the active flowering phase, with their height now around 100–130 cm. Nutrient concentration is 850 ppm, room temperature daytime up to 26°C, nighttime up to 22°C, CO2 concentration up to about 850 ppm, and humidity at 50%. The light schedule is 18 hours of light and 6 hours of darkness. PPFD — 700. Nothing was changed in the parameters. The plants continue to gain mass. They've grown even more. Growth is good, height already exceeds 125 cm. Visually, there are no deficiencies or burns; the bushes are developing very vigorously and absorbing their 850 ppm well without salt buildup. We did defoliation, removed a decent amount of leaves, probably 20 kg wet. We'll send them for extraction. The plants have spread out a lot in width, branches are already closing the passages between tables, jungle 😁. Big rastafari to everyone, Raizap brothers! 😝

Están creciendo lindas y sanas, la estructura se va formando sin problema. Ya todas muestran señales de haber tomado de buena manera el cambio de fotoperiodo por lo que ya entramos de lleno a estimular raíces, cambio de fotoperiodo y próximamente engorde.

Day22: As said in Week3, I will not keep this perspective for the whole grow, as it doesn't really show the size of the plant. But it gives a nice view of how to top leaves grow :) The flashes that you see in the video is the humidifier. It pumps out vapour every hour for 15mins. So basically a quarter of each second of the video will be when the humidifier runs. Day23: I changed it, as I wanted to see the size as well. Day24 - Day28: Happy, healthy growth.

Went to travel in the 6th and 7th week without photos.A pity. The plants are growing very fast and are very crowded now.

Unfortunely did not document the early veg too much, here a video from like veg week 3/4, shortly before the second topping

At least she is closer to the light now. I'll let this one run longer so it's got more time to bulk up. Back soon. Take it easy.

Stretch is mostly over and can see,buds begin to fatten up. 🔥Gelato, Do si do, and amnesia are in a 3 way tie for tallest plant but amnesia got tallest the fastest. Alaskan purples are the runts of the group.🔥 Amnesia has the biggest buds followed closely by the do si do and gelato tied for 2nd. Within days of getting the air fixed 😁😁😁 almost done venting the heat from the dehumidifier almost time to let the ladies get ripe in the dry coolness 😎😎😎

Hallo zusammen 🤙. Sie wächst weiter sehr schön 😀

Defolié por tercera vez, 6 o. 7 días después de la segunda, y que creo que fue un error garrafal :/ bajo el consumo de agua a 500 diario y comenzó a florar sin fuerza ( según lo que veo), además de quedar estresada un tiempo, errores para poder seguir mejorando.

Soon you will see my first run in a DWC^^ And a run for this Competition ;-) Added a short Clip from the open box

Going well

As you can see at the beginning of the video, the Gorilla Punch was infested with spider mites at the end. I sepereted her directly outside the greenhouse. High time to harvest them before something worse happens… After 67 days in total from seed to harvest she got cut off👨‍🌾 it is dried in a cardboard box in the cellar at about 20 degrees Because of the spider mites there were some rotten buds, maybe 2-3g i have to cut off. It was definetly the smallest plant of them all. The bud rot is caused by the plant herself... nearly every bud was produced directly at the stam buds directly at the stam.

Still swelling but starting to slow down and swagger. It's kolas are becoming so large that it's really starting to weight down the plants small height and stature. Trying to get away with not holding it up but I will see how the further biggest kola starts to lower more how it'll end. I'm starting to lower the feed and get ready for the last 3-4 weeks I'll be giving these plants. Some more foliage will be removed eventually in the coming weeks and also I'll start to change the feed up a little. You can really see the difference in the two phenos. One's a lot like a leafy gelato and the other is OG all the way with great dense kolas. I'm expecting the Gelato type pheno to take 9-10 weeks and the OG one seems to be showing it's age more rapidly with it's pistil development and colour change beginning to start while the other seems untouched and continues to shoot newer whiter pistils!
