It seemed there were two very different phenomes. One had pink calyxes which was cool. One had extremely dense buds and the other were fluffier put had trichs on top of trichs. The last plant taken had almost all stigmas bright red. Very pretty plants. I wish I didn't lose so much to insects. I learned ky lesson. Next year floating row covers. This strain made it through septoria and a host of other problems including inclement weather and a thrip infection. This plant looked so perfect and it just seems like I'm losing a little more daily. I was hoping the buds would fill out more on the last one but they were INCREDIBLY frosty and had reached the date it said on the package. Not that that matters.

After her intitial trimming , i could see the decent amount of heavy looking buds for the 1st time . I am amazed at her feel and smell too. She has a few days left to dry i think and i know a few weeks in a jar would leave her a champion grow. I am impressed as hell with the strain and it will be in my must do again list for sure. Cannot wait to smoke her delights. I have a sample bud to play with ( in pics) last sample nearly knocked me over and that was a lot earlier in the flowering cycle too !!!.

Ok, so it's slowly getting thicker and frostier. At week seven my girl could be ready in anywhere from two weeks to four weeks more. The light was dropped closer to the top of the canopy. I decided to try 15 cm of distance, as well four 50W LEDs are not as powerful as the 600W HID or LED panels that are usually used in grow tents. I will of course keep an eye for signs of light and heat stress, but I suspect that won't be a problem. Update Day 89. Today I decided to turn the plant around to see the back colas and their growth. Then I found some mites under the leaves after examining weird spots in a couple of leaves. It seems to me that there was not enough airflow to deter the mites from making home in the back leaves, when compared to the front leaves of my plant. Lesson learnt, rotate plant often, ensure good and even airflow. I didn't find any webs beside a really small one seen on the video (most affected leaf). So, I think I found them mites early. I only found this kind of damage on very few leaves, and each leave contained less than 8 mites (at least that I could see) and a couple of eggs. So it seems that paying close attention to my leaves saved me from an out of control infestation. Anyhow... I removed all of the leaves that had even a single mite, or a single mark of discoloration. Also, I disinfected the grow tent, top of soil and lower part of the branches by spraying them with a 1/4 tbsp of bleach per liter of water. After that was completely dry, I mixed one part rubbing alcohol with 9 parts water and misted both sides of the leaves and even the buds directly (ethanol evaporates easily, so there shouldn't be residues left after it dries completely). I got these remedies from https://www.growweedeasy.com/cannabis-plant-problems/how-to-get-rid-of-spider-mites I will apply them every 3-4 days and keep a good eye on the leaves. Prevention is key, and some aspects I could've considered before are: 1. not grow any other plant next to my cannabis 2. Don't come into my indoor growtent after tending my outdoor plants. 3. Ensure even and plenty airflow. So, I attacked back strongly. I cut more leaves than those that showed damage, to increase airflow. I will be on the watch for pests and will rotate my plant often, as well as spraying a few times every week, just to make sure they don't come back. I also am going to build a kind of metal wire cage to separate the colas further and make it harder for any pest to spread. Its only my second grow, but from what I've read online about mites, it's way more costly (time and money) to deal with an infestation than to strike them hard early. I guess that specially now that I noticed them before they even made webs. Look closely at your girls growbros ! Update day 90. So this morning I. Becker the trichomes and they seem to have gotten more cloudy. I am not an expert at that, but they are starting to be fewer clear and more milky. I will keep an eye on them, but it think harvest might be here very soon, probably closer to the 9 week mark than to the 12 week one (I'm about to finish the 7th week)...

My gas tax plant is looking absolutely incredible right now. It's got these massive buds that are super dense and have this awesome dark color to the leaves. I'm so excited to see how it turns out when it's finally ready to be harvested. I've been checking the height, the thickness of the stem, and the density of the buds to get an idea of how much longer I have to wait. I think I might start flushing it soon. The past few weeks have been so beautiful, watching the plants grow and change. It's amazing how something so small and fragile can turn into something so strong and vibrant. Now that they're getting ready to bloom, it feels a little bittersweet. I'm so excited to see the finished product, but I'll definitely miss having them around while they're growing.

Welcome: thanks for dropping by. Drop a like so I can check out your grows, or not, I'll leave it down to you. So, the fun begins with Kosher Cake. Have 6 in the ground FB seeds in the ground only 1 kosher. The 2 Strawberry Gorillas are still not there with germination. Have started these on the 3 nutes above. These are best known as Voodoo Juice, tarantula and Piranha. These versions are from the ppl who hold the pattens and make a lot of ANs formulas. They have just improved upon most of the AN line up but they kept these the same. As they are tried and tested. Going to be running this lady on the full 19 Terra Power Line up. You can check these out on led-grower.eu/terra-power/ and read up on them for yourself. I'll be adding what's in them as for these 3 if you are interested look up Voodoo, T&P. Hopefully soon you'll be able to click on them and look em up when they join GD in the next wk or so. Happy with how the nutrients are holding a stable PH at 6 and these aren't even their PH perfect nutrients. So no PH - + needed. Sprayed each plant expect 1 gorilla zkittlez, for that 1 I used ANs line. These recommend 1ml/l for seedlings, AN I used 1.5ml/L. I use to use 2ml/L but they are seedlings so it's enough. Just a waiting game now. Will update as soon as these ladies start a popping. I laid a damp towel around the pots hopefully it'll up the RH. (Don't soak the towel it needs to be able to dry easily and in turn increase RH) Sprayed each 5 plants with this line up to start them off. As soon as leafs show I'll start them on a very very light feed. Will feed again in 2 days with the same mix. Another 100ml 1ml/l of each 3ml/l total 627ppm 6ph 21c temp. Have the smart intake fan at no 4 on 100% of the time. If I can't get desired RH after a day or 2 I'll turn the intake fan on 20/20 on/off and it'll make the RH be above 70% by doing this alone in a small space like 70x70. I really don't think I'm gonna have an Issue with low RH, but I have a feeling I'm gonna pay to have a low RH environment. 30/4/22 VD1. Have started her on jungle juice trio and a mix of terra Power enzymes and all there bud/resin enhancers will be used in conjunction with half strength recommend jungle juice dose. The feed is so low I've made up a 1l mix and that will do this and the 2 banana purple punches also. And I'll move that up to 1ml/L x3 of the jungle juice products next week. But for this week what's up above will be given every 2 days or when needed. 1/5/22 Slow growth on VD2. She's the runt most are reaching 2.5cm 3+ nearly on 2. Let's see what happens she's out of the ground and showing fan leafs, yday she had a crusty head. So all in all, going well. 6-8 FB seeds are up and thriving. 2/5/22 She's picked up fine. Got some height to her. Will continue the same course and watch her grow. Will update once more on on size and daily pics. 4_5_22 All Jungle juice&Terra Power grows are showing deficiency signs. I'm going to push up the EC this week I think. I do not want to stall them but I really think EC will be high in jungle juice because of the micro it has SO MANY TRACE nutrients it's crazy and it sends the EC sky high but there's so much of little bits of this and that I really think it can handle a higher EC. I'm going to 2x it or up it by a 1/3 for their watering 2moro as they were only fed yday. I've added biobizz calmag to help as my tap water is lacking cal mag when it comes into summer or so it stays on our water reports. It drops by 20%. 6/5/22 So, it's begun. I've created a negative pressure environment, 1st time, let's see if it makes an impact. On wk 3 onwards I'll be running the intake extraction for 5mins every 30mins and I'll have 2 co2 bags up. If the RH becomes a problem or temp I'll put the extraction/intake back on 100% of the time. The extraction fan/intake is set at a ratio of 2 to 1. (100% extraction 50% intake) making a negative pressure environment, best way to show you have done this, the walls in your tent should bow in lightly. Same Day. Okay, so this my last update. Going to run fans the same right up until flower and then I'll be sealing up my tent and adding 2 co2 bags. And will be adding a dehuimifier and setting at 45% And it checks every 30mins and if it's gone up it'll turn back on and bring down to 45 or set RH, so no co2 will escape. The temp will be bordering 30-33c and then when they go into their rest window they'll be transferred to to a negative pressure environment with low temps and 45-50%RH. I'll only be able to do this for the 3 weeks of pre flower. And maybe some more, it depends how hard the dehuimifier will be working, but i want dense buds and only way to improve that is by introducing Co2 and then a negative pressure cold environment for terps. Then I'll be putting them back into full negative pressure environment and the Co2 will be useless, again all depends how it's gonna affect my bottom line. That and I only have 2 intake fans. I'll be going into detail about my Co2 adventures the week before I'll be prepping them to be able to withstand high temps, so I'll gradually bring up the temps the last wk of veg 28c max and that way when I push it to 30-32c in pre flower she won't stress as much Thanks for reading, this will be it as for updates for this week other than her final 7th wk day. Will adjust EC 5th higher or so. gottagrowsometime

9/27 She made it through the rain! Looking great in the sunshine. I gotta bring the loupe over again. It's smelling really strong and it looks like most of the pistols have changed color. If I wasn't losing more to damage I'd leave it out longer. It will still be a couole days probably because I need to put away what's hanging and make room. This has been one crazy year. Forty degree temp swings. Crazy year and even crazier pot. Can't wait to try them all! EDIT: I've been trying like hell to update this thing. I've been working my balls off. I ALMOST took the last pink kush. I have a video i'm trying to upload on my computer because I can't even update ANYTHING on my phone. Boy this years weed came out incredible! I've been working hard but as soon as I have a second to myself and get everything at least inside i'll finish the harvest and smoke reports and give some good pics/videos.

Super stoked for last week, watching her flower is pretty incredible, so from pretty much week 9 of veg up till now I've been feeding her half strength base nutrients with fluctuating strengths of sensizym and Cal-Mag always mixed with 8L of basic filtered water. Update January 5 2020. Back from my fishing trip! Happy to say that everything with the durban is going swimmingly, I fed her today 8L with half strength base nutrients and half strength of sensizym. I will probably do one more feeding with sensizym and call it good.. in two-three weeks I will start adding my Overdrive nutrients to my base. January 11 update: Not much going. Just playing the waiting game now. January 13 update: its gotten really cold here, like -37 with wind so I put a ceramic heat emitter back in, now back up to 250w heat running 24/7. Growing in an unheated shop is definitely a challenge! But with the other one in things are picking up and shits drying out finally. Should have put the other heater back in a week ago. My bad. January 15 update: -37!! Holy fu*ck, fed her 3L of mixed nutrients at half strength. With just a splash of overdrive. January 17 update: outside temps finally warming up to -25°c yay!! Inside grow box temps up to 28°c she likes it warm, Fed her the remaining food I had mixed up, she got about 5L. Seeing fattening of the bud sites👀👌 January 19 update: No idea when this happened but it did.. got a crack right at first top. Now I know to leave more of stem above where it splits off into two. Quick tape fix till I figure it out, fed her 5L of mixed food with just under full strength OverDrive and some organic growth plus.. it has a high pk so I'm using it once. January 21 update: things are slowing down now, just a waiting game to find that nice mix of cloudy/amber trichomes. Might feed one more time then it's on to flushing! January 23 update. Fed her another 5L of mixed nutrients with full strength OverDrive. Seems how I have about 2-3weeks left, that will be the last feed. I have lots of "buffer" leaves and pretty sure I've been overfeeding a bit so it's now flush time.. I will be flushing for last 2-3 weeks with just plain PH'd tap water. My "buffer" leaves should keep it going till it's time. January 25 update: first flush done with about 8L of store bought RO water. Water that came out was slightly brown. No point checking run off yet as its first flush. I will check ppms next flush in a few days. She's starting to smell really good! Like an earthy diesel . January 27 update: wasn't going to but the leaves are dry as f*** so dumped in another 8l of RO flush water. Trichomes are I'd say 99 to 100% cloudy with a few Amber's here and there.. I will try to time it for Feb 1st harvest. If I'm a few days early due to flushing coco then so be it. January 28 update: no water. Still seeing some slight fattening of the buds. Every bud site including the lower pop corn buds are just covered in dense trichomes🤤 I'm going to have some pretty killer trim to work with.. I will be making canna butter for the first time😀 side note: will be cleaning the grow box tomorrow when the lights are on. January 29 update: None. I did however find out sunglasses make great UV filters for taking pictures and videos 👍 January 30 update: None. January 31 update: large flush with about 14L of water, cleaned out run off tray. That's pretty much it.. oh, trimmed a few more leaves that were covering any buds. So close I can almost taste it!!! 🤤🤤 sure not very strong smelling though🤨. I'm sure that will change once I start chopping into her. February 1st update: 10L flush, noticed one of my intake fans has been off for some time now🤦‍♂️🏻 fired that back up. I did mention that I might harvest today.. she's not quite ready yet, I will let her dry out 3days prior and do a 48hr darkness prior to harvest as well. February 3rd update: last day of week 16, trichomes are right where I want them for the affect I'm after.(and will continue to amber up during cure) So tonight I will be chopping her down. Going to do a "wet" trim and hang buds in the drying rack till ready for curing jars. Planning on a 3 week minimum cure time. I would to thank everyone for the kind words/likes and encouragement!! The growing community is full of great people👍 More updates to follow. Update pictures daily!! Happy growing everyone!🌱👌Stay warm my Canadian friends.

Visibly noticed my plants fully able to drink through my 3gal feed in more like two days rather than 3 - I’ve been feeding them within those timelines lately. Still healthy stressing these girls. Genetics on full blast here. No signs of any pests- won’t be adding any other precautionary D Earth or insecticidal soap. Gonna run it and hope for the best. Fingers crossed. I will be weening nutrients down a tiny bit these next upcoming weeks leading into flush! Steady growing into October now fam!

Fast Buds CC growing nicely, just starting her stretch. I accidentally snapped the stalk about half way through doing some LST bending. Oops! I guess that's HST now 😮 Oh well, I taped her up and she's doing fine 👍
