This week marks the official start of the show โ€” pistils are popping and both plants are settling beautifully into early flower ๐Ÿ”ฅ๐ŸŒธ.Red Hot Violet is stretching with confidence now. Node spacing is ideal, and those early white pistils are lighting up each site like tiny fireworks ๐Ÿ’œโœจ. Her structure is going to pay off big as she starts stacking.Amaretto Sour is smelling sweeter each day โ€” that lemon-blueberry aroma is getting louder ๐Ÿ‹

Hey everyone ๐Ÿ‘‹ Here's this week's update: Matcha is still small and I believe she'll stay like this but at the time she's doing better compared to last week, so that's a win. I wonder, did I do something wrong? Was it the lack of CalMag or maybe the heat? Maybe I got a weird phenotype? (I doubt this) or what else could've happened to her? The truth is there are tons of different things that could've caused this and I wish I could know what could've caused this (I'll be making a grow question regarding this). Pistachio on the other hand is doing well, she's huge compared to her sister and she grew a looooot this week! Some leaves are slightly dark and some tips are a bit too bright as well but there's no signs of burn so I assume she might be on her the limit! Personally I suppose the mycorrhizas might be the ones at fault in here. They make feeding more efficient so probably the "normal" dosage might be a bit too much for them... and for that reason alone I decided to lower the amount of Green Grow that I was using, hopefully that will help. ๐Ÿ™ I also decided to give 10 weeks of vegetation to these plants. Hopefully Matcha will grow a little more during this time (she's still at 20cm) but at this moment I expect nothing from her, I'll just allow her to surprise me haha. ๐Ÿ‘ป Thanks for reading! See you all in the next update! ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

The Sweet Gelatos are almost there still waiting on the trichomes to ripen. I expect I'll harvest them this weekend. The Gorillas have still a way to go, possibly another 2 weeks or more. They both have produced large thick dense colas but the ZkittleZ are by far the largest and thickest easily as thick as a woman's thigh! I've procured a new light so I've added it as side lighting for now... 800watt led side light! ๐Ÿ™ˆ Begone popcorn buds and larf!๐Ÿคญ

Overview of the whole grow so far.. everything is looking healthy no signs of mold pest resistance is there with the help of the dragonflies and natural ladybugs and other predators in the garden including garter snakes.. the snakes just coil around the trunk of the trees.. Everyday the odor of the garden grows stronger skunky and sweeter.. Cinderella 99 has the strongest odor and most fragrant buds, followed by the Purple Haze, then the Strawberry Cough then the Afghan hash plant and then DJ Short Blueberry but to be fair the blueberry and the Afghan we're late bloomers as we all know

Le piante crescono velocemente, hanno avuto un calo di cal-mag ma ora stanno recuperando. Ho fatto un lollipopping e a breve avvio la fioritura cambiando programma di luce in 12/12.

DAY 2 She's oh so slow to finish. Still more clear and cloudy than amber so i'll need to wait some more... I actually prefer the more amber type of high... I can wait... :) Maybe I'll need to feed her plain ph'd water one more time but let's see... Merry X-MAS to ALL! ๐Ÿ‘ป DAY 5 Wow... that was fast. She kinda turned amber in 2 days. The buds in the middle are now like a bit over-ripe, a lot of amber and the ones outside are just a little under-ripe. I'm done. No more waiting now. I thought about harversting only parts but I'm really done with this one. I'll leave her in the dark for 1 more day and then I'll chop her down. Luckily she's about to dry out completely so the drying process will work just fine... FINALLYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!!! 26 WEEKS MUAHAHA.... Next: back to autoflower... LOL!

This plant is a slow growing strain heavy on the Indica side. Is a connoisseur strain not recommended for commercial Grow. To slow if in it to make some money. But was a pleasure to grow. It is definitely a head turner and is more potent than most purple stains I have tried before. So if ya got time and like something truly special give it a go...happy growing guys0

First of all thank you @fast_buds for this amazing strain, had a blast growing and experiment with her. It turns out that growing cannabis is not that difficult. All it takes is enough watering to balance the substrate. During the grow I did not even measure ph or ec once. And the leaves were healthy all the way through. In flowering I watered about half the size of the airpot every day. In order to successfully water as such every day and grow without unnecessary measurements need a ventilated flower pot And a Soil substrate enriched with perlite. The plant responded great to massive watering, grew quickly and recovered easily from stress. I took her to the limit But I did not provide her with sufficient lighting, it was reflected in the flowers that came out bit airy. (Yet 253 grams are a respectable crop.) So here is my next grow resolution I will make sure to provide the plants with all their needs So that they will take care of mine ;).

Solid week. Very fast growth despite topping. Amped up the light a little bit and will begin some LST soon to try and spread the plants horizontally. Updates as we go. -8/10/2021 - Did some LST, HST and a little cleanup of some lower crap that wasn't too promising.

New week starts. __________ ๐ŸŒž10.05 I've watered my plants with 'Pre-Flowering' GHE nutrient mix and spraiyed them with 'Foliar nutrients'. ๐ŸŒž11.05 Nothing for today. ๐ŸŒž12.05 Nothing today. No feeding, no spraying. I'm patiently waiting for the end of a week to make huge defoliation. My babies are big. Too big. ๐ŸŒž13.05 The same. ๐ŸŒž14.05 Found few bent up leaf tips. Thinking what it is. Upd: I asked a grow kwestion and got an answer. As a result, I moved my lamps higher. ๐ŸŒž15.05 The reddish 'rusty' marks shows up between upper leaves veins on 'RG'#2 I suspect sunburn. Asked a new grow question. ๐ŸŒž16.05 It's definitely Phosphorus deficit combined with high temperature. I've measured income and outcome water and it was normal, so it's not an overfeeding. Watering with 80% 'GHE Tripart' bloom formula with adding 80% of recommended dose of 'Advanced PK' nutrient. Watering: - Ph 6.2, - CE 1.17 Drainage: - Ph 6.25 - CE 1.09 I can't change lamp-to-plant distance, but I can put other lamp in my grow box. I have 50 watt red light grow lamp and I'll change one of my 100W lamps to it tomorrow when the light will shut down. It will be 250W instead of 300W and that should be more comfortable to the flowers, I guess. I grew the mighty 'Critical' with this setup. Sprayed my garden with clean water and that's all for today. ___________ Week ends.

Sorry for the broken lens. My harvest was 19.5oz. I left the main stem and one of the branches to seed, I'll grow with the next generation of female plants, if successful. There was a week of rain and it was starting to seed, so I harvested it a week early. In the end though the terpene profile was crazy for edibles and for smoking. The slow drying allowed the buds to retain a lot more terpenes, the fan leaves shield the buds and prevent them from drying out too quickly.

Sorry I have not updated in some time. A lot of the missed time was me recovering from hand surgery. In this time, I was not able to move plant and tend to them. Then, at the start of the new year, GD was acting horrible. It would allow some updates and then reject others. Luckily it was still allowing harvest updates. The flower has a strawberry berry smell. Strawberry flower is my favorite. It is super frosty, and smells delicious. I did lose half of the canopy during flowering. As it was too close to the fan. Causing it to l wind burned a lot and ate away at the plant as it grew. She did alright for what I could do 1 handed. Thank you Spider Farmer, Athena, and Herbies Seeds. ๐Ÿคœ๐Ÿป๐Ÿค›๐Ÿป๐ŸŒฑ๐ŸŒฑ๐ŸŒฑ Thank you grow diaries community for the ๐Ÿ‘‡likes๐Ÿ‘‡, follows, comments, and subscriptions on my YouTube channel๐Ÿ‘‡. โ„๏ธ๐ŸŒฑ๐Ÿป Happy Growing ๐ŸŒฑ๐ŸŒฑ๐ŸŒฑ https://youtube.com/channel/UCAhN7yRzWLpcaRHhMIQ7X4g.

In my opinion, the harvest was quite good for a first grow. The buds are now in jars with humidity control packs and hygrometers, curing in the dark. Several weeks have passed, and I've already had the chance to try them. I have to say that I quite like the taste, and when smoking, I don't experience any harshness or other negative effects; instead, it feels rather mild and pleasant. The effect is goodโ€”not what I'm used to, but very pleasant and calming. I'm already looking forward to the next grow.
