Mar 7 (day 78): Start of week 12. Mar 11 (day 82): Chopped plant.

the girl is growing:) although there was no sun for a few days and there was a strong wind:) she is fine:) I didn't water it, it was raining so I didn't need it:) see you next week.

Still early but looking good. I'm going to have fun with this round, I can feel it!!!

Thank you to all that have helped me along this journey. All of the answers, tips, comments, likes, and other diaries have been so very motivating to me. I originally started this diary only for my own reference but I'm so pleased to have learned that others have found it helpful or interesting, for whatever reason. If you're curious about equipment see the germination page and if you have questions feel free to drop me a line. So, without further ado: Jan 19 Day 105 Harvest day! 🎉🎉 Not really knowing how to tackle the situation, I started by cutting all of the fan leaves I was able to reach. Then, I cut each branch working from the perimeter inward - which due to the way she grew, was essentially the same as working from the bottom branches of the meristem to the top. Each branch was cut, cleaned, and handled individually before moving on to the next. Decided to wet-trim most of the branches, leaving 4 fairly untouched (only fan leaves were removed). Will be interested to see the differences, if any. They're all drying/hanging near the grow tent ~45%RH, 72F (22C). It isn't completely dark though, as some light is escaping the tent into the closet where they are hanging. I'm hoping this isn't terrible but I'll be keeping my eye on them. The process took the better part of an evening but I was cautiously learning, taking breaks, and generally being fairly slow. I'm sure I'll be faster and more confident next time. Jan 27 Day 113 Drying is complete, I think. Branches were hung and dried for 8 days in a consistent 68F (20C) 40% RH. They were determined to be dried after hearing a snap when bending (not breaking) large stems and buds felt dry to touch. Sugar leaves bordering on crispy while buds still had some give / fluffiness. The flowers from previously manicured branches were relatively easily plucked. However, the dry trimming process for the unmanicured branches proved to be a bit of a pain. They have been placed in a pyrex container to cure. I'm hoping flavors and aromas that are currently lacking will develop in time. 🤞 --- Stats --- Veg time: ~45 days. Flowering time: ~60 days. Height ~18in., ~46cm. Main Bud Length: ~9in., 23cm. Harvested 16 Hangable branches and a few extra medium/small buds. Bud Wet Weight, with stems: 242g, ~8.5oz. Larf/Popcorn Sugar-leaf Wet Weight (not counted above): 18g, ~0.6oz. Leaf/Waste Wet Weight: 38g, ~1.3oz. Drying time: 8 days. Dried Weight with Stems: 70g, ~2oz. Trimmed and Dried Total Bud Weight: 50g, ~1.75oz. --- Thoughts in hindsight --- Firstly, I can't believe I haven't tried growing sooner. So rewarding in so many ways! My initial hope was to harvest an oz., so I am obviously quite happy we could surpass that mark by a good margin. This is a testament to the plant more than me of course, as I was completely inexperienced and was purposefully as hands-off as I could be comfortable with throughout her growth. I can only imagine things will improve with time. Paper-towel germination seems to be prone to more stress for myself and arguably the seedling as well. Floating in 1% H2O2 solution seems to be ideal for me. I made bad soil choices. This mixture seemed to be too dense, leading to some watering/strangulation issues mid-growth. My 2nd grow consisting of mostly coco coir seems healthier and seems easier to maintain proper hydration. Coco might also be reusable while this soil definitely seems spent now. I didn't respect pH at first and initial testing was eye-opening. That said, after simply testing water and fertilizer readings a few times, I gradually felt more comfortable with guestimating during most feedings, only testing sporadically later in her life cycle. This seemed to be fine and was a bit of a relief after early testing proved tedious every feed. I've been happy with Better-Gro orchid fertilizer. This is of course contrary to most advice, which I admit is probably for good reason. That said though, I didn't notice any major toxicities or deficiencies during her grow. So, these products seem to have worked for me and are so much more affordable than cannabis-specific fertilizers. I was quite weary about not having cal-mag, but this never seemed to be an issue in this particular case. However, I'll be keeping a similar eye on my 2nd grow in coco, which I understand may need it. Training and pruning is important. This plant was quite bushy and wild likely resulting in quite a bit of unnecessary larf/popcorn. Not to mention the additional time needed to trim when harvesting. Also regarding training, pipe cleaners can leave noticeable cuts in the stem they hold. Thickly coated flexible garden wire would likely be ideal. I need to get a loupe or magnifying attachment for the phone. Digital zoom with shaky hands is not great for checking trichomes and my 3x magnifying glass just doesn't cut it. I cannot speak toward potency or yield without more experience, but simply for the sake of a greener hue, I think I could've harvested her a week earlier. Because I left a few branches untended during dry, I was able to experience both the wet and dry trimming processes. Unless keeping leaves for extra humidity during drying, I seem to prefer wet trimming as the still supple leaves were easier to remove with less bud handling. I'll add more thoughts if/when they come. Thank you again for stopping by! 👋

Day 35: Feed her 1L again.Now we're talking. "The spring, the spring – you bring love’s flood, How hard for me your apparition, What listless and yet crazed condition Afflicts my soul and taints my blood… Unknown to heart is joy’s ignition… And all that joys and swells to bud Brings yawn and sloth, by definition. So give me storm and icy blizzard, Long winter filled with inky nights." A.Pushkin 1827

La pandemia kush es la más avanzada y se le empezará a regar solo con agua al igual q la Trimosa x mimosa_1 La Trimosa x mimosa tiene un problema con absorción de agua, pero ya está siendo solucionado

5/1 I took off the carbon filter yesterday and noticed the suction that I had been losing was completly restored. I then washed the filter sock that fits over the filter, and blew off any buildup of humidifier and carbon dust. I've yet to reinstall the filter, as the smell isn't too bad. Trainwreck is starting to fade and absorb the leaves. I'm removing them as I go. Will probably water them both tomorrow. Wondering if I should start flushing Amnesia as well.

A wonderful genetic thank you Fast Buds ❤️‍🔥🤩 The trim was super easy the buds are FAT & FROSTY full of resin 🤤 I’m very happy with the harvest 96g !! For the light i’ve used the Spider Farmer SE-7000💡

It’s been a busy few weeks! Harvested 2 of my Bruce banner autos. Also everyone is in full on flowering and dang my blueberry takes a lot of work! She’s my biggest plants by far at 56” y’all and 58” wide with being LST’d. She drinks 2 gallons a day. My purple punch autos are doing great as well, my giant is in full on flowering and stacking! My other one has been in flower and should be done in a few weeks. The other autos, blueberry auto and Bruce banner auto are all in flower too and doing great. After this grow I will be starting my first indoor grow and that will be a whole nother learning experience. Welp time to go water my girls. Let’s kick ass this week and get the fuck after it!!👊🏼👊🏼👊🏼

Hello everyone 😎 After 24hours in a glass of water with a few drops of hydrogen peroxyde all the seeds have germinate🌱🦍😈 They will grow under the new Mars Hydro FC1200 evo💥

The ladies are stacking hard and smelling insane. The nicest pheno has some amazing bud structure with big icy buds and perfect node spacing. Smells like fresh zoap, sweet, fruity, gassy and parfume/soap-like. Incredible. She is by far the biggest plant, which is nice as she looks like the most productive one. My second favorite is looking beautiful. The structure on her is not so great and looks like a small producer. Very nice fruity/candy terps though, and incredibly icy. The stretchy tall pheno is looking great too. She smells more like a mix of #1 & #2, very icy as well. She stretched a lot so the top buds are very close to the light, and very foxtaily. The buds at 40-70 cm distance are looking more compact and dense. The least favo pheno looks very weird and small, bud the buds are pretty icy and smell very sweet.
