I Have let them veg out as much as I feel the grow space can handle. I am sure there will be a bit of pruning and super cropping in the near future. These girls will grow untouched other than the 2x daily fertilization, but I am switching out the Horti-Grow with the Horti-Bloom, feeding at Hort-Bloom @ 2.7 GRMS Per Gal and Horti-Cal @ 2.5 GRMS Per Gal. 🗓️04.21.24 Today fed with Hort-Bloom @ 2.7 GRMS Per Gal, and Horti-Cal @ 2.5 GRMS Per Gal. 🗓️04.22.24 Today fed with Hort-Bloom @ 2.7 GRMS Per Gal, and Horti-Cal @ 2.5 GRMS Per Gal. 🗓️04.23.24 Today fed with Hort-Bloom @ 2.7 GRMS Per Gal, and Horti-Cal @ 2.5 GRMS Per Gal. 🗓️04.24.24 Today fed with Hort-Bloom @ 2.7 GRMS Per Gal, and Horti-Cal @ 2.5 GRMS Per Gal. 🗓️04.25.24 Today fed with Hort-Bloom @ 2.7 GRMS Per Gal, and Horti-Cal @ 2.5 GRMS Per Gal. 🗓️04.26.24 Today fed with Hort-Bloom @ 2.7 GRMS Per Gal, and Horti-Cal @ 2.5 GRMS Per Gal. ╰⊰🔹╰⊰´🔹⊱╮🔹╰⊰🔹╰⊰🔹STRAIN INFORMATION🔹⊱╮🔹╰⊰🔹╰⊰🔹╰⊰🔹⊱╮ Cheese XXL cannabis seeds are a special blend of Afghan Kush x Super Skunk producing the most pungent dank weed. Cheese XXL is the third commercially available edition released by Original Sensible using and developing these Afghan and Skunk genetics. The first release of these genetics was their Skunk Afghani. The second improved version was Stinkin' Bishop which had an improved and more potent THC content and was more pungent in terms of smell. Now the third and improved release on a similar theme is this Cheese XXL which has a similar THC content but with an improved heavier yield. The smoke is incredible with an outstanding flavour of pungent skunk and spicy, extra strong mature cheese created by the dominant terpene myrcene with its strong earthy scent accompanied by caryophyllene and pinene which combine to create a peppery acrid cheesy odour. THC levels are exceptionally high in this Cheese strain and the effect is well-balanced creating mental and body relaxation with a remarkable alleviation of stress and depression. The strong pungent aroma starts early in the flowering period, if you're growing Cheese XXL indoors you'll need plenty of ventilation to disperse the stinky "road kill" aroma of these babies! Cheese XXL is a Cheese strain particularly suited to indoor setups but also thriving well outdoors these feminised marijuana seeds are incredibly resistant to mould and disease and produce a substantial harvest that both the professional and amateur growers alike can easily achieve. These Cheese weed seeds are outstanding, break open the buds ready for use and you'll see why, the stench will make your eyes water! Cheese XXL from Original Sensible Seeds is a great choice to break into the commercial market of growing cannabis so if you're looking to buy something special with extreme yield, potency and flavour then Cheese XXL cannabis seeds are simply the best choice

Her final week of flowering start of week ten of flowering will be chopped next Tuesday then I'll post final results. I'm praying for 8 zips I really would like to break my record my biggest autoflower haul has been 7.5 zips dry! Second being 6 and then 5 and half. My average is 4 zips while minimum 1 zip. This girl was hard to keep up with feeding. I was watering it everyday for the last 3 weeks believe it or not. Biggest auto grown wide as fuck. Lst to perfection. Idk what else to say one happy auto grower as always :)

I lollipop them today!!!!!😁😁😁😁😁😁 It's their 37 day and they just started getting into Flower and getting taller so I Lollipoped them and did a little bit of defoliation so the light will get to the bit lower buds sites since I did some LST in a bit later stage which went incredible. But it meant some buds sites are big but still a bit lower in comparison so I didn't take them out of course. And i did some SCroG but took it out the day before the lollipop and we'll see if the girls are fine I will put it back in 2 days or so depending on the plant growth

This is looking like the final week on the mango, they are 2 weeks into flush now and the colours are so vibrant! I am off on holiday in September and need ten days to dries these before hand, so I maybe forced to crop next week Friday. We will see how it goes. I have been checking the plants all over for milky and amber trichomes. So far I can say the mango has about 80% milky 15% clear and 5% amber..... she's not far off 🤤. The amnesia has about 75% milky 24% clear and 1% amber. These do vary between top and bottom of plants of course. But take them as an average. The amnesia is sooooo fat! And I am in love with tho colours of the mango. Will keep you all updated and add some proper photos of the final plants on harvest (without L.E.D light), that will all be next week. See you then!

Cut down at day 80. I cut the first plant at day 56 and washed a lot of it into FF live rosin. First time doing that’d got lower yields than I wanted but think I know how to bump them up on the next wash! The 56 tasted good but trichomes weren’t as mature as I wished they would be. I’m thinking the 80 day will be not enjoyable. This 80 day plant will be mostly for smoke.

This strain was perfect for my first grow was resistant asf even in the 38 degree heat these plants showed little stress. I’ve learned a lot during this grow and decide to go with this strain again for my next, The smell of my harvest isn’t that strong bud the high is. Smell is really nice and the taste 🤤 gave some to a friend who say “ it fruitier than Alan carr” but yeah have nothing bad to say about bpp and will be one of my go toos for now on

Welcome to week 6 of flower for this lovely project! Last week was exciting this week should be even more exciting! With the ladies beginning to put on serious weight it's only a matter of time before I'll have to install a second net to help support the branches. With this being about the halfway point I'm excited to see them at the finish line! Huge shout outs to @MarsHydroLED for making epic lights and tents for people to grow in! Huge shout outs to all my followers and people who stop into the diary alike! Keep inspiring to grow! -The Projexx Day#36F Creamy Cereal is PUMPING frost now with its undeniable smell of fruit loops and milk. Day#37F Ladies are putting on mass and quickly! Day#38F Macmelonz continues to stretch and stack but looks like its nearing the end for her stretch phase. Hopefully she pumps HUGE kickass flowers for me. Day#39F Flowers are almost the size of a soda can now. The trichomes on these plants are wild like trichomes over trichomes. The flowers have really picked up on the aroma department as well very please with the plants. Day#40F Raised the light abit, Flowers are starting to display colour in them now can't wait to see them in a few weeks! Day#41F Pictures N/A. Ladies are still beefing up flowers some of the pistols are starting to turn. Day#42F Ladies are still putting on mass daily. Lots of lovely unique smells coming from the plants. Recap: Things went well this week , the ladies really put on some mass and all the flowers are hard as rocks! I will be taking away leaves over the course of the coming weeks to ensure the airflow to the flowers. Excited to see what the coming weeks bring!

Yesterday I discovered that, in order to change my timer, I didn't put the clock back onto it. Now they had 3 hours more light on the third day of flowering. Exactly the kind of oopsies this grow really doesn't need. But it happened and all back on a normal schedule, but I hope the OHS en GG4 aren't affected by it too much... One accidental re-vegging is more than enough for a year. Also, these sensitive strains can hermie on me for lesser reasons so from now on I'll be checking for male signs daily. The XTraKush is performing as advertised, with enormous stretch, these plants can go 10 ft up according to the breeder. So I'm tying them down and managing this to fill out the space. With all the stuff going on, this 'underdog' strain might even prove most resilient, when all is said and done. They seem to respond really well to the SP-3000 light and If you are in the market for a new light, consider this option from Mars Hydro. Thank you @MarsHydroLED for letting me try it, it is a dream of a light. I compared it to my old light again and PAR values are not even in the same ballpark. Thank you for checking my diary and taking the time to read my adventures! Hug Bud

I figured nothing could go wrong with 50% amber / 50% milky trichomes. Harvest day, Medical Mass: Huge buds and no traumas but got bud rot because of too high temps. The best I've ever smoked. Harvest day, Pineapplex Express: Got an early trauma when transplanting but handled it beautifully. Potent smoke. Pretty satisfied for a first grow, and I have a lot of changes for my 2nd grow!

Happy to have this beast in flower. No major stretch so far; fingers crossed it stays that way. Will continue to defoliate and add flowering nutes in the next week or 2. Photos/video taken 84 days after breaking soil, day 7 of flower.
