Since this diary started in the middle of Week 4 of flower, many of the details about how we got to that point have remained a mystery. In previous updates I mentioned how my last attempt at growing this cut resulted in a plant that outgrew my space. I had a long veg time and used a 5 gallon pot. That information allowed me to exercise caution on this grow because I knew how big this plant can get when given an opportunity. With that in mind, I only gave her 9 days after transplant from the aerocloner before moving her to the flower tent. My pervious experience dictated that this plant exhibits significant lateral branching. I top most of my plants to encourage this kind of growth, but due to the short veg time and for the sake of experimentation, I decided to not top her this time. You can see that this has resulted in a large main stem cola, but also (thanks to knowing her growth pattern) several rather large secondary colas as well. As an aside, some may look at this and wonder "yeah, but what about the yield?" I have never weighed a harvest. I grow for myself only, therefore yield is not something I concern myself with. I just don't care. I fill one quart mason jar and the rest is given away or turned into hash. My scheduling is such that I harvest approximately one plant a month; therefore I have enough smoke to last a VERY long time. While this plant will probably go 12+ weeks, with only 9 days of veg, it’s still comparable to a 10 week variety that would require a longer veg time to produce a similar yield. And, frankly, I have close to a dozen cultivars in my ‘consumable’ collection and this is the only one I reach for prior to 9 pm. She has a very clear and motivational high. Not overpowering, but I never test her ceiling, so she could get one blasted if necessary. This would also be a great plant for someone having trouble eating, because my appetite is essentially limitless when I’m smoking this. Perhaps it’s no coincidence that I have put on a few lbs since I’ve had her in my collection?

================================================================================= CRIB NOTES - I'M USING A LIGHT CYCLE OF 6 ON 2 OFF THIS SHOULD KEEP THE LADIES FROM STRETCHING AND GROW VERY COMPACT. Many growers advocate the use of an 18/6 light schedule (18 hours on, 6 hours off) while plants are in Veg. However, this may not be the most beneficial light schedule. Switching to a series of 6/2 (6 hours on, 2 hours off) light patterns may increase plant growth while also potentially creating a more stable controlled environment. While this new schedule may sound risky, it actually comes with a number of benefits. Cannabis is a “short-day plant,” meaning that it will only flower when exposed to long periods of darkness and short periods of light. For cannabis to flower, there must be at least 12 hours of continuous darkness. This allows for the use of a series of shorter light schedules while the plant is in Veg – as long as the plant receives less than 12 hours of continuous darkness, it will stay in Veg. BENEFITS OF A 6/2 LIGHT SCHEDULE There is a lot of research that suggests that cannabis plants can only process a certain amount of light per day. After that level has been reached, the plant can no longer absorb more light, and any additional light is essentially wasted. By breaking the light cycle into multiple 6 hour periods, the plant is able to rest and process the light it has received. When the lights come back on 2 hours later, the plant will be ready to process additional light, allowing you to get the most plant growth out of every minute your lights are on. At a biological level, cannabis’s inability to grow more once it has received a certain amount of light can be attributed to the way the plant processes carbon dioxide (CO2). A majority of the mass accumulated in cannabis is associated with the amount of CO2 found inside plant cells. While under light, cannabis tries to prevent CO2 from leaving its cells by cutting off transpiration. However, this prevents new CO2 from entering into the cell, blocking new growth. When the lights are turned off, and no photosynthesis is occurring, the plant is able to absorb new CO2 into its cells. Additionally, when plants are exposed to 18 straight hours of intense light, they become stressed. Signs of stress – droopy or curled leaves – will usually appear towards the end of the light cycle. While some stress can be beneficial to plant growth, too much stress can cause harm to your plants and prevent them from reaching maximum growth potential. Giving plants 6 hours of intense light at a time not only puts less stress on the plants, it also spread out the load on your cooling system over a longer period of time. The cooling system works the hardest when lights are on. By turning off the lights for 2 hours at a time throughout the day, your cooling system will get a break between light cycles, allowing the room to be cooled to desired temperatures before the lights come back on. With a properly sized cooling system, this benefit will be minimized as the system will be designed to handle the heat load throughout the entire light cycle. While there are many approaches to Veg light cycles for cannabis, a 6/2 schedule allows for maximum plant growth. A 6/2 schedule allows plants to process more intense light, prevents plants from becoming stressed and puts less stress on your cooling system. It’s a win all around. Give your plants a break every 2 hours and you’ll be amazed at the results. ================================================================================= Day 1 October 1st - 2018 - The 3 Seeds are in germination at the present. The seeds were soaked in reverse osmosis water for 16 Hr. then transferred to a paper towel. DAY 2 October 2nd - 2018 - 2 out of the 3 seeds have germinated. the first 2 will be put into hydrofarm soilless seed starters using Revers Osmosis water and placed under 3 grolux flor 45 watt. Day 2 October 2nd - 2018 1:00 Pm. All 3 seeds planted into hydrofarm soilless seed starters using Revers Osmosis water and placed under 3 grolux flor 45 watt Day 3 October 3rd - 2018 - 9:00 Am. 2 ladies have popped out there little heads. Day 4 October 4th - 2018- 9:30 Am Seedlings are doing fine. All 3 seeds have germinated. Day 5 October 5th - 2018 ROW being installed. 2:30 Pm ROW installed. Day 5 October 5th - 2018 Seedlings are getting first set of single serrated leaves. Day 5 October 5th - 2018 The tent is setup and running R.O.W. Day 5 October 5th - 2018 Washed all Hydroton Clay Pellets in ROW. NO DETERGENTS. Rinse and Rinse again. Using R.O.W. so the medium has a practically no Ph. Day 6 October 6th - 2018 - Transferred the best 2 seedlings to tent under Veg. 1000 Watt L.E.D. Each bucket contains 19 liters of R.O.W. no nutrients added. This will continue for the next 2-3 weeks depending on growth. Day 6 October 6th - 2018 Seedlings put under Light Cycle of 6 On 2 Off Ect. Day 7 October 7th - 2018 - Seedlings looking good. Seems everything is fine on 6 on 2 off light cycle. Day 7 October 7th - 2018 - The 3rd seed germinated is looking very healthy. Transplanted it from the hydro seed starter to a 1 gallon planter with soil. Placed this in between the 2 main plants in the D.W.C. & used R.O.W.

Wedding glue is on the full wind down now fading beautifully and sticky as she’s a stunner . Dried and smoked a bud this week and it was so tasty absolutely incredible plant !! She will come out in three or four days after a flush ( yerr yerr I know bro science flush etc etc , I’m convinced it tastes better flushed 💨😍. ) Looks to be a 10 oz plant or close to it fastbuds producing the goods time after time

-Sensi Seeds Research: The Sensi Seeds Research breeding project has created eleven cannabis seed varieties. How? By combining new cannabis cultivars with a selection of strains from their long-established cannabis gene bank. For the first time in thirty-six years, they are opening the doors of the Sensi Seeds Research and Development Department. Week #16, week #8 of Flowering : The #741 are done ! They’re good to harvest. #1318 is just right behind for the Indica’s phenotypes and are ready to harvest. The Sativa phenotype might need another 10 days to go. Shiva Skunk is definitely ready too The Northern Lights needs another 10 days Super Skunk will be ready at the end of next week Black Domina needs a few more days #11 is a 9 weeks Flowering period ( smells like Sensi Seeds got his own Bad Azz strain now 😊 ) Next week will probably be the last week for this crop. And this week was the last feeding week for the late ones. I had to back up the Mars-Hydro SP 250 a lil bit further, the plants right under the light were showing some reversed leaves. I’m really happy with this crop, I would strongly recommend those new genetics as much as the old school ones. ( I’m looking for a job in the Cannabis industry as Master Grower, Mineralogist, Quality Control 🐞 )

So we’ve come to a slow down on the stretch and they’ve started to work n creating flowers, I defoliated about 10-15% of the fan leaves and removed stems that had less vigor or was too under the canopy and wouldn’t of created any good flowers as these plants are a whopping near 50” so proud to be a loyal Martian! The lights are so powerful and provide the plants with the power of the sun ☀️

Pues terminando las entradas de los cinco diarios de la temporada y he dejado para el final, la Tropicanna Poison Fast de Sweet Seeds...y como podéis ver algo aquí es muy distinto tanto a las fotodependientes cuanto a las automáticas. Las fast son en mi opinión, una "tierra de nadie" y aún habrá que evolucionar en lo que las genéticas de estas F1, terminan expresando en sus grows Primera de las evidencias. Son raras en su expresión de vegetativo y os explico, solo las Fast en indoor te pueden regalar hojas fan con casi 20 centímetros cada una, pero ojo al dato, no solo una de estas hojas y si un montón de ellas. O sea que el diseño genético de esta cepa F1, te lanza hojas primarias gigantes como si fueran paneles lumínicos y co o si con ellos quisieran chuparse todas las áreas de luces que puedan estar en un armario grow. Otra característica que me tiene patidifuso y que es sencillamente el grosor de tallos, el central es como un árbol y las inserciones de hojas primarias son tremendas en tamaño. Esta F1 tiene una característica que me ha sido posible registrar y que es no haber una definición clara de una cola principal...son ramas que a espacios fueron compitiendo en el particular del aprovechamiento de la posición de los paneles de luces y lo que ha pasado es que nonçe he puesto una malla SCROG, pero el grow por "voluntad" propia generó como que un nivelamento de sus ramas y es casi como ver que este grow tiene como media docena de colas. Los primeros señales de floración son muy específicos, con el grow sacando pistilos tremendamente grandes, lo que representará a la postre cogollos que serán al menos en el tope, también gigantes y todo en este grow Fast es sobredimensionado...es como si fuese una planta gigante y es ya muy claro que por su tamaño existirán internudos muy apartados, pero por la estructura cada punto donde haya floración, habrá un cogollo de dimensiones muy grandes y la pregunta del millón es "que esperar de algo así?"...siempre tendremos unos cogollos rojos y con mucha carga psicoactiva o será esta Tropicanna Poison F1, como una otra también de Sweet Seeds y también F1, que fue la S.A.D. (la afgana delicious) y que fue uno de los humos que menos me gustó (ya os comenté que fue un humo sin mucha imaginación, muy a los aromas y sabores a hachis de toda la vida; y con cogollos no muy buenos en densidad, pese a su tamaño. Y esa es mi reflexión final de la semana, serán las F1 ya plantas que sus genéticas son lo suficiente estables, para que salga algo especial. Para mí, que una F1 pueda llegar a término, dos semanas antes de una fotodependiente nunca ha sido la principal idea en desarrollarlas y aún necesito entender si lo que pasa con las Fast es algo como ese chiste de dos amigos que tenían cada uno un burro y decidieron crear descendencia y uno tenía un burro macho muy grande pero poco empeñado en trabajar y otro tenía la burra, que era pequeña pero muy dispuesta al trabajo y en lo que pararon, el burro nacido que esperaron que fuera grande y muy fuerte para trabajar, les salió casi un "perro" o sea un burro enano y que el curro no le gustaba ni un poco...así que mi pregunta sobre las F1 es un poco, que "burro" nos sale en regla en estos grows??? Las F1 heredan que características por lo general?!? Dudas tengo y no son pocas y como ya os había comentado, a las Fast quizás sea esta la oportunidad de oro para que me decante, por si sigo haciendo apuesta en ellas o las dejo de una vez y en este momento, solo el tiempo podrá decirlo. 420 siempre y el Dios Jah siempre con todos los hermanos growers!

📆 Semana 5: Con el entorno radicular ya completamente estable, la planta dirige toda su energía al desarrollo floral. La estructura se mantiene fija y los cogollos comienzan a compactarse, apilando cálices con mayor densidad y mostrando una resina más visible cada día. Los riegos siguen alineados con la demanda, manteniendo una absorción limpia y sin acumulaciones. El aroma se intensifica y se vuelve más profundo, señal clara de que la fase de carga está en marcha. Semana de transición hacia el engorde real y afirmación estructural. Seguimos creciendo fuerte 💪!

September 27th. 104 days in flower. Clones: Buds are noticeably more filled out than they were last week. Still developing new stacks though, crazy how the structure is so different from modern hybrids and indicas. At 104 days my official estimate is 3-4 weeks remaining before chop. I lowered the light another 15 minutes per day so we are down to a 11:13 cycle. At this point providing nothing but water as the massive amount of dry amendments I gave it a month ago should really be kicking in now. They go through about a half gallon of water each a day or 1.5 gallons for all 3 a day Not going to give a plant by plant update this week as no noticeably or differential developments between the phenos. I will say #2 has not developed any more bud rot so I am very happy about that. So far I am still liking #4 the best. Parents: Defoliated the parents a week ago. They have since recovered for the most part with even more bud shoots than before. I will be giving these guys nothing but water for about a month and likely won’t defoliate for a few more weeks God bless and thank you guys for following!

La semaine était très froide. La plante était en intérieur souvent. Très peu arrosé mais un peu quand même. Les bourgeons grossissent et prennent en maturité doucement mais sûrement. L'odeur est très alléchante...

Gracias al equipo de Sweet Seeds y XpertNutrients sin ellos esto no sería posible. 🍁💐 Permanent Jealousy XXL Auto: Autofloreciente de tamaño extragrande que nace de la unión de dos genéticas excepcionales: Permanent Marker, ganadora de múltiples premios, y nuestra exquisita Jealousy Z XL Auto (SWS108). El resultado es una planta de gran tamaño, vigorosa y productiva, con cogollos densos cargados de resina, ideal para extracciones. El perfil terpénico de Permanent Jealousy XL Auto es complejo y cautivador, con matices cítricos, mentolados y amaderados. Prepárate para una experiencia sensorial única con un efecto equilibrado que te proporcionará euforia tranquila, felicidad y creatividad. 📆 Semana 1 Esta semana ha sido un poco difícil para su desarrollo debido a las condiciones climáticas. No ha acompañado mucho el tiempo y, aunque las temperaturas no han sido las ideales, he intentado mantenerla lo más estable posible. A pesar de esto, la planta muestra signos de adaptación y aunque el crecimiento no ha sido tan rápido como esperaba, confío en que mejorará cuando las condiciones se estabilicen. Estaré atento/a a su progreso en las próximas semanas, espero que la cosa se ponga mejor pronto☀️🙏.

Otra vez familia e vuelto actualizar las do sweet dos , que menudos ejemplares que ganas hay de verlas madurando 😂. Hubo problemas menores medioambientales, a raíz de ello sufrí hermafroditismo en muchos ejemplares, los cuales se eliminaron todos los posibles plátanos. Por lo demás todo genial solo ese fallo el cual en un futuro no pasará mas. . La humedad esta al 45% la temperatura está entre 21/25 grados , y como siempre el ph , ya que es de lo más importante,está en 5,8/6,0. . AgroBeta: 1 ml x L Flowering black line , vía radicular. 0,2 ml x L Beta shark, vía radicular. 0,3 ml x L Tucán , vía radicular. 0,1 ml x L Betazyme, vía radicular. 0,05 ml x L Gold Joker, vía radicular. 0,2 ml x L Silver, vía radicular. . Hasta aquí todo familia 🕸️ , un saludo y buenos humos fumetillas💨💨💨.

So this week after I gave it under nutrients I apparently gave it too much nitrogen while having a potassium deficiency. Shiney dark leaves, So i fixed that, but some didn't bounce back, and I tried nitrogen. I think they are doing pretty good considering everything I've put them through SO FAR. lol. Nutrients are NPK Raw's total lineup, follow their instructions at first, Fastbuds adjustments as of this week.

Bonjour a toutes et tous (cette semaine j ai eu un petit soucis sur une melon gum (bud rot) alors que je ne dépasse jamais 50% d humidité mais je pense le problème viens d autre part (les têtes ont triplé de taille en une semaine et vue qu'elles sont en contact c est pas top pour la circulation d air j ai donc enlevé les 2 têtes et désinfecté comme il le faut , j ai également monté un gros ventilateurs en plus ) Autrement tous ce passe plutôt bien d ici fin de la semaine on passera au flusch voilà voilà les amis j ai enfin trouver la force et le temp de sortir les plantes de la tante (hors mis les 2 plus grande melon gum / et cherry cookie) mais promis je les sortirais très vite.
