Hi everyone 😊          This will be a very short final grow report.. It wasn't a very lucky cycle, especially because I paid very little attention because principally it was taken from other plants and also unfortunately as you can see I couldn't bring anything else that a video and no photos🙄..        All this has an answer.. In practice, a friend whom I had not seen for a long time and without thinking, arrived since I wanted to relax a bit during his stay..gave all this Girl Scout..                           I was able to test about a little more than a gram..   A little steamed, about 0.3, and the rest all in a joint, what you saw in the video🙂..                              Unfortunately everything happened very quickly on I was not able to take the final photos..        The smoke test fortunately I had done the night before..              So sorry but for this diary no photos😞🙌..                                                I will not go too far on the story of the cult because as said before it was done a bit randomly..  This strain however is potentially quite productive and vigorous..  Despite the various stresses and with very poor lighting it has managed to produce 14g of flowers with a very strong perfume..                                         The flavor is quite earthy , with sweet-woods notes but with the fairly relevant presence of the ruderalis gene that gives it a slightly "strong" bitter taste..  At least that's the way it is for me..                                                    I'm used to regular or feminized strains, maybe that's why I feel it very much🤔..    In the end of the day.. It's still a good strain..              The seeds may be a little expensive, but for those who do not pretend too much, it can be more than good..                      In total from seed to harwest, the time spent was about 85 days..    Always at 18/6 light on/off..                                     The smoke test was carried out with organic raw papers and filter, only grass as I think it should normally be😎😉👌..       My friend smoking it with tobacco did not feel that strong taste, like smoking without being mixed.. Reason why I always say who tobacco or blunt falsify the flavor too significantly, going to mask both negative and positive notes, altering the final experience🙌..                                           Everyone rightly consumes as best I think🤗..                                    But I personally believe that the cannabis, to savor it in the its fullness and to enjoy 100% of its beneficial effects, it is convenient to consume it alone as it appears..   Pure🌱..  The ideal is with a vaporizer🚭.. Using the latter (between 180 ° and 195 °, mighty) it is still quite present a "rough" aftertaste that in mix with the already earthy flavor already present, does not leave me a good taste on the palate..                                               As an effect, however, is a line with a classic indica, quite relaxing and not invasive on a mental level.. Effect not too prolonged but present..                                               Nothing too strong anyway.. Overall it is a good strain, but considering the time taken to get to the end of the cycle by comparing it with a random photoperiod indica in relation to the hours of light for yield and general quality, I am even more inclined to choose plants feminized or regular..                           I still find the autoflowering interesting and certainly from what I see in the other diaries, Fast bud works well👍..                                             Maybe I will try another cultivar with their strains, managing the situation better..   See you on other diaries, already now😉..   Thanks for the support🙏.. Bye ✌️

Hey! Welcome to week 9 for Karen! Week 8 is now complete so please go and check it out 🙏. Big week last week... massive. Day 57: Fertigated 6l. Height 40cm. Day 58: Scent has stepped up again and I'm noticing some of bud sites starting to develop frost. Day 58.5 Flushed with 20l of PH & CalMag. Day 59: reorganised tent Day 60: Fertigated 3l. Karen has put on a load of frost in the last 24h. I mean seriously. Smell stepped up again. Height 44cm. Day 60.5: I have had a really good look at other KKA grows. I think Karen is going to need a few extra weeks. I think she will be ready for harvest in about week 14. So I think we have about another 4-5 weeks to go. Day 61: Adjusted the LST a bit. She's frosting rapidly now. 😍😍🤩 Height 45cm. Width: 60cm x 70cm Day 61.5: It is only 8 days since I *heavily* defoliated and I think I probably should do it again already. Things are progressing well at the moment though so I am trying to resist doing it too soon. She is still stretching. Day 61.75: Right, I have done some research and I have made a decision,. I'm going to give Karen 2 full weeks from the last defoliation on day 53, so on day 67 (i.e half way through next week) I will defoliate and perform final LST just to space out the colas a bite more at the "top" of the plant. Incidentally, Nesia is now easily the same spread as Karen.. Nesia is going to be much bigger than Karen. Check out Nesia here: https://growdiaries.com/diaries/161801-grow-journal-by-unorthodoxdude If you are interested in the stunted Big Bang Auto - Bertha - who is 2 days younger than Karen, check her out here: https://growdiaries.com/diaries/158111-grow-journal-by-unorthodoxdude - in the current week I have added various photos of the non-cannabis plants in my tent. Who knew basil flowers were so pretty? 😊 Day 62: Fertigated 3l Day 63: Height 47cm width 65cm x 75cm Week Summary: Another big week with a plant barely recognisable from herself a week ago. As well as the ongoing stretch she has started to frost over this week and I am hoping this continues because more and more is appearing all over the place.

This strain is almost perfect, smell, look, resin production, bud structure, how little trouble she was in veg…etc…. even yielded really well for a smallish, bushy plant, the only thing letting it down was slightly lacking in flavour, flavour was nice don’t get it twisted but I had very high expectations because everything else was so good, and it fell short a little. I did cure some further for a few months and it was better. All in all I’d recommend this strain, another banger from Barney’s farm!

Week 8, the last feed! Defoliated to let more air flow and light penetrate down into the lowers of the plant. Bud's are sticky, plant is covered in frost, the pics don't do it justice. For a small pot grow, she's not that far behind her big pot sister

Gorilla Glue stands out from the other strains! Can see from early on that it has more trichomes and more frosty than the rest. The blue cheese and Phantom OG are looking super dense as well. No other problems and only great growing going down.

Day 47 and I switched ferts completely. I wanted to find something besides 20 additives so I'm trying jack's. Old timers know what they are talking about and swear by this stuff. They are responding great to it already in 2 days!! So easy too. I also changed bulbs from a well known brand to a denkyu bulb. This bulb is awesome and is way brighter. Not sure why neither one of my blackberry have turned any color.

12/7 Week five and in full flower. Runoff was way high 1400-1700 ppm this accounts for the tiny white tips on new growth. Increased amount to 0.5 gal once a day but may have o go back to twice a day. Still on half/grow half/bloom until the stretch plays out still trying to hit 700ppm of feed without runoff exceeding upper limits so feed alone is running 600ppm to counter the hard water. Once I have a handle on the runoff will up nuets. After some thought and a bit of reading I decided to do this as a root drench and fertilized flush to remove all salts from the pot. 0.5 gal 5.7PH CT Grow AB / Kangaroots /Fish Sh!t with @50% runoff - 950ppm (unadjusted 750ppm adjusted) in / and 1020ppm out. See how things look in 24 hours. 12/12 Feed set to 800ppm still half grow half bloom 12/13 Some pics lights on just getting the hang of it Nuets now just the Coco Tek half grow half bloom 800-ish ppm 15% runoff 2.5 quarts 5.9PH at lights on

Hey guys everything is going great with these ladies all 6 germinated and popped up in 3 days after planting 1 of the six shooters is a lot smaller than its sisters so I've order LEMON PIE from FASTBUDS should be here tomorrow to take its place and I'm going to move the six shooter outside so if you would like to see its journey comment and like bellow ⤵️ The only thing I wish I did differently would of been starting these girls under a cfl or a cheap led to stop stretching but lesson learned if anyone has any question's please comment and thank-you all for your support ✌️

Greetings, fellow growers! Week 5 has brought us to a pivotal moment in our Anesia pheno hunt journey as we embark on the transformative process of topping our thriving beauties. Let's delve into the world of topping and explore the magic behind this essential technique. Topping is a fundamental aspect of plant training, involving the removal of the apical meristem, or main growth tip, to encourage lateral growth and bushier plant development. By snipping away the topmost growth, we redirect the plant's energy towards the lower branches, stimulating new growth and increasing overall yield potential. It's like giving our plants a strategic haircut, with the promise of fuller, more abundant foliage in return. But topping isn't just about increasing yield – it's also about promoting a more balanced and uniform canopy, ensuring that light penetration is maximized and no precious photons go to waste. With each well-placed snip, we're sculpting our plants into lush green masterpieces, ready to flourish under the glow of our Future of Grow LED lights. Speaking of lights, maintaining optimal environmental conditions is key to our plants' success. That's why we've raised our TDS to 420 and adjusted our pH to a precise 5.8 using our trusty Blue Lab Guardian monitor. This advanced monitoring system allows us to keep a close eye on nutrient levels and pH fluctuations, ensuring that our plants receive the perfect balance of nutrients for optimal growth and health. It's like having a guardian angel watching over our garden, guiding us towards horticultural excellence. And let's not forget the satisfying sight of water droplets glistening on freshly topped plants. These tiny droplets are more than just a visual treat – they serve as a gentle reminder of our care and attention to detail, ensuring that our plants receive the hydration they need to recover and thrive. It's a moment of zen in the midst of our bustling garden, a testament to the beauty of nature and the joys of cultivation. With each passing week, our Anesia pheno hunt grows more exciting, and I can't wait to see what the future holds. Stay tuned for more updates, more growth, and more green goodness as we continue to cultivate joy and growth together in our Green Oasis!

ladies have started to take off much more this week. I added heavy 16 finish to schedule of nutes. may be adding fire and roots also over next weeks. no huge issues this week, felt pretty dialed in for most part. using grow room glasses ive found i can get decent video of the girls under lights vs having to take them oit find ok lighting and taking a pic. noticed smell coming off the plants this week, its weak right now, but definitely starting to stink! going to top at the 3rd node once they reach 8 inches tall. after day 28, I transferred into 3 gallon fabric pots, which will be their final homes til harvest! (bottom leafs on plant #1 got some spotting, one side was windburn from earlier in grow, the other side I got a few drops of nutrient mixed water on them, and even after wiping away it left spots on leaves, its all good they are going to be removed after topping)

What can I say she is coming along nicely. Not showing any signs of deficiencies or nutrient burn. Bud size is the same as a salts run with General Hydroponics Flora Series. Fingers crossed I've got my bloom formula nailed down now. Resolved an issue with fungus gnats and having a small problem with some 2 spotted spider mites, which I treated with some predatory mites which is the reason I had to turn up the humidity as this species of predator mite likes it above 60%.
