Quick foreword: I hate how Growdiaries does Harvest and Smoke separately and then messes up all the pictures. Please bear with me, I tried to label them all. Wowsers, what a trip this contest grow turned out to be! I am so sorry to submit it one day before the deadline, life got in the way, but the good news is this lovely plant has had a chance to fully cure and she’s been helping me through big changes in my life. Dry weights will be in the Smoke report. I have only input the mother’s dry weight as the total end dry weight. This is because this is a competition diary and the rule is one plant. Consider the clones a successful experiment. They are only here to document how hardy this plant is and how easy she is to clone. Remember, one of the clones was the top of the plant I cut off when topping her before flipping. I usually can never get those to root, but this plant clones very easily! As always, the main plant was dried in a cardboard wardrobe box, modified to have a 5v USB fan extracting air at the bottom. This helps prevent mold but keeps moisture in for a slower dry, which leaves some more terpenes. Drying took around two weeks. Trimming was a pain. I love the smell of this plant, but her lowers are so leafy. If you go back to around the weeks where I flipped, you can clearly see I left too many lower nodes and as a result I had too much of a bush. The Micro DWC experiment ended up surprising me the most. Check out the smoke review for its weight and taste! some people also asked me how far I keep my lights, I don't measure the distance, sorry. I use Photone on iOS and push the ppfd of my plants up to 1000 during flower. The Soil clones and the main competition plant were planted in organic soil from a local garden center mixed with organic fertalizer tablets and worm castings, the clones were in 1L and 3 gallon pots and the main competition plant was planted in a 5 gallon growbag. once the plants ran out of food I fed Plagron's Alga line. the DWC clone used just Plagron Hydro A+B and extra PK 13/14 in flower, this is by far the cheapest and most effective way in my experience, it could be due to lack of skill in organics, but you can clearly see, my DWC plant is frostier than my soil ones, and they're the exact same phenotype. I'll probably be going back to hydroponics, I'm not saying organic isn't the way to go, but for me personally, my skillset and way of growing better fits the artificial nutrients, and as a result my DWC plants flourish. I feel more in control with DWC, I know exactly what's going on in my buckets, whereas with organics I'm often scratching my head in frustration.

**Encontrarás la traducción a español al final de la descripción** From/Desde: 07/10/19 || To/Hasta: 13/10/19 From day/Desde día: 77 || To day/Hasta día: 83 If you like this week, please hit a like, it costs you nothing! 👊. Thanks in advance 😉! -----WEEK SUMMARY----- The colas have already begun to be well defined this week, as it can be seen. It does not seem that the buds are going to cover from the bottom to the top because there is much space between the middle nodes. I really don't know what this may be due to, probably because of lack of light or by using nutrients in the wrong way. The same happened to me with the Gorillas and Money Makers in my last diary and in that case I attributed it to the failed defoliation I made. This week I begin to detect a deficiency of magnesium in one of the large leaves (or so I think), even so within 2 weeks I do not take precautions because until then it was not obvious to me (serious error). On the other hand this week I started to go hard with the E.C. in the irrigations, I trusted that I was not feeling so bad E.C. sings on Alice and the problems came all at once within 2 weeks. -----WATERING CALENDAR----- 08/10/19 DAY 78 - 3 l with BudCandy, BigBud, Bloom Nutrition & Stimulator, RhinoSkin, B52, Nirvana, Sensyzim & PKBooster @ (2.3 EC | PH 6.4 | 24.8ºc) 11/10/19 DAY 81 - 4 l with Megabud (1 g/l), SilicaPower, Budcandy, BudFactorX, BloomStimulator & (BigBud & BloomNutrition) half dosed @ (2.1 EC | PH 6.3 | 24.5ºc) *****ESPAÑOL***** Por favor, si te gusta esta semana dale un like, no te cuesta nada 👊. ¡Gracias por adelantado 😉! -----SUMARIO SEMANAL----- Esta semana ya se han empezado a definir bien las colas, como se puede observar no parece que los cogollos vayan a cubrir de la parte inferior a la superior pues hay bastante espacio entre los nodos medios. Realmente no se a que puede ser debido esto, probablemente por falta de luz o por estar usando los nutrientes de forma equivocada. Esto mismo me ocurrió con las Gorilas y Money Makers de mi último diario y en ese caso to lo achaqué a la fallida defoliación que realicé. Esta semana empiezo a detectar una deficiencia de magnesio en una de las hojas grandes (o eso creo), aún así hasta dentro de 2 semanas no tomo precauciones pues hasta entonces no se hizo obvio para mí (grave error). Por otro lado esta semana se me empezó a ir la mano con la E.C. en los riegos, me confié en que no la estaba sentando mal tanta E.C. y los problemas vinieron todos de golpe dentro de 2 semanas. -----CALENDARIO DE RIEGO----- 08/10/19 DÍA 78 - 3 l with BudCandy, BigBud, Bloom Nutrition & Stimulator, RhinoSkin, B52, Nirvana, Sensyzim & PKBooster @ (2,3 EC | PH 6,4 | 24,8ºc) 11/10/19 DÍA 81 - 4 l with Megabud (1 g/l), SilicaPower, Budcandy, BudFactorX, BloomStimulator & (BigBud & BloomNutrition) half dosed @ (2,1 EC | PH 6,3 | 24,5ºc)

Started mid-flower feeding this week, half gallon each on Mondays and Thursdays. I can't believe how amazing these girls are doing with these nutrients! Not much else to report on honestly, I received some companion plants in the form of Venus fly traps they seem to be working well for the dirt gnats. Not too worried about the pests though as they didn't really affect anything on my first grow either. Thanks for stopping in have a great week and happy growing!

Legendary OG Punch Originally my plan was to grow just four that's why in the photos there's only four seeds. I added the fifth after another strain didn't germinate all of the seeds. Germination went great, all of the seeds germinated and quite fast. Strain Characteristics from breeder: The purple gloves are off, the legend has entered the ring, and she is ready to deliver a 1-2 punch combo on mind and body. With three incredible strains in her corner, Legendary Punch is a knockout sensation for hybrid lovers. Flooring cannabis connoisseurs, she will leave you in a couch-locked state of bliss. Pre-roll your joints, turn off your phone, and prepare for a TKO. Legendary Punch: She Only Needs One Hit To Knock You Down More than just an appealing description, the boxing analogy is an elaborate code to highlight her thoroughbred parents. First up in her dank corner, Legend OG. Providing a massive sedative effect, she is a prime candidate for Kush lovers. Creating further support for Legendary Punch, Granddaddy Purple and Larry OG combine to become Purple Punch. Their partnership brings improved yields and additional potency to the table. With two premium coaches, Legendary Punch is a mighty hybrid ready to take down any challengers. DELIVERING A SOOTHING BLOW TO THE BODY Legendary Punch lives up to heavy indica tradition, despite being a hybrid. Her high is intensely focussed on soothing the aches and pains of physical labour. Used recreationally, users can expect to be firmly locked into place for several hours. Her sheer strength and determination lead many cannabis lovers to indulge just before bed. The powerful sedation ensures a restful night. Flavours also support a late-evening smoke by delivering a blend of grapes, berries, and lavender. While mostly body-centric, you can also expect mild waves of euphoria—less dominant than the blow to the body, but still enough to wash away those small nagging worries. BOLD FLOWERS MEET AROMATIC BUDS An elegant central cola shows off her swagger and confidence. Hues of green, orange, and purple are worn like a pre-match gown. Her aroma is just as brash to begin with, hitting growers as soon as they come close. Fruity notes with hints of pine and citrus easily overwhelm the nostrils. Give her plenty of space to grow indoors, and she will reward you with 350–400g/m². That is as long as your neighbours don’t mind the pungent aroma that develops. Outdoor growers can expect to harvest at the beginning of October. Indoors flowering takes only 60–65 days, a small price to pay for her knockout attributes. Genetic Background: Legend Og x Purple Punch Type: Feminized Sativa 40% Indica 60% THC: 19% CBD: Medium Yield Indoor : 350 - 400 gr/m2 Yield Outdoor: 500 - 550 gr/plant Height Indoor: 90 - 160 cm Height Outdoor: 180 - 220 cm Flowering time: 9 - 10 weeks Harvest Month: Early October Effect: Cerebral and relaxing My expectations and training method: Seeing that she grows like a sativa my plan is to top and LST adjusting the colas. I might leave one without topping and just do LST for the fun of experimenting. I expect everything the breeder has described if she turns out as like so we’ll be seeing lots of colors, some nice fading in the end and just an all out beautiful view and very pleasant aromas. Only thing bugging me is the yield, isn’t my highest expectation with this strain. My guess is they won’t get past 45 grams per plant but obviously I’m shooting for more with the techniques being used. If she yields low but those buds come out punching hard then I’ll be happy with the results.

The plants have already been topped. Today, on 25-05-2024, two large leaves were removed, covering the sprouts. The LST was done at the same time.

Bienvenidos de nuevo! Esta semana he seguido regando con agua hasta el corte, no he dejado que las hojas se pongan más amarillas porque los tricomas habían llegado al punto de madurez que más me gusta. Se nota que cyco tiene productos muy buenos por el simple echo de que después de dos semanas de agua siguen bastante verdes. Actualizo la semana como semana de floracion simplemente porque no tomo pesos en húmedo, después de un par de días colgadas pasaré a manicurarlas, y para cuando seque subiré pesos. Creía que sacaría flores extrañas por el calor, o que tendría algún problema más serio a la hora de cultivar en esta época,todavía falta secarla bien, pero a simple vista creo que me acerco al peso de la anterior cosecha, ojalá. Subiré más fotos en cuanto tenga la manicura echa, un saludo!

The girls are moving along nicely just watering with water ph to 6.4 this week as I top dressed with Gaia green 4-4-4.Spider farmer Se7000 dialed in at 30 percent and to the ceiling.Noticed some minor deficiencies Day 12 and check soil slurry 50/50 soil/water and the ppm was at 780 lil high at this early stage and the culprit.Going to work on lowering that a bit this week.I did add a top layer of fox farm ocean forest as well which runs a little hot with nutrients rather than the pro mix.I have to remember with these beautiful auto flowers less is better :)

Week 13, flowering week 3 Omg, omg, omg 😱 Lemon Cream Kush has some Jack magic beans in it 😅 Putting them on the side, I was expecting a big stretch but not like that, it is reaching a x3 in size in 3 weeks. All 3 phenotypes are similar. The MEGA POWER PLANT is definitely the perfect strain to grow. Compact structure, not too tall not too small, and making nice buds. The 4 phenotypes are totally identical, this strain seams to be absolutely stable and suitable for a SoG from seeds. Next week I will swap the BIO 8-2-2 for the Alga-Max. I should avoid a Die back around week 5 of flowering, except maybe on one mega power plant. One of the girls started to turn light green from the bottom, giving it a last feed of Veg nootz shall slow it down turning yellow in 2 weeks. Let’s see how it goes next week, stay tuned folks 😊 (I’m looking for a job in the Cannabis industry as Master Grower, Mineralogist, Quality Control)

These girls are looking amazing the sparkly glitter everywhere, they are nearly on week 5 flowering, the smell they are putting out is grape gas OG Kush with some orange peel diesel funk. ⛽️

Pleased with how this plant is doing. Lots of stretch this week and looks like she's still got more in her. Still been training the tops where i want them but the branches are getting stiff now so that's nearly it. The cooling fan on my grow light is really noisy and the loudest thing of my setup by far. So i have changed it for a much higher quality one and it's amazing! Night and day difference for noise and performance too! See before and after videos. I have a feeling i might run out of space in the middle with the 4 buds. Also that the outside ones are too close but we will see. Any comments welcome or suggestions. As i keep saying, all a learning process to get better each time. I am already planning my next grow which will either be do si dos auto or gorilla zkittlez auto both from Barney's Farm. Have a possible weeks fishing trip on 7th Aug. So has it not finished by then I will buy a water pump and set it on a timer. As i expect i will be flushing around then so just ph water through the pump. Thanks for looking P.s. Planted 2 more outdoors today - 1 went with the other 5 and 1 in its own spot. See last photo of the now 6 outdoors!

This is probably week 9/10 actually. It’s been busy with non plant related stuff.. Babies moved tho, 1x1x2 growing tent with 600w hps. Gonna put a few cold white tornados next to it because the internet told me to🤓 9/9 plants are confirmed female. Found a bag seed of lemon haze that’s sprouted too, and now a week later it has the biggest leaves of m all. It’s on the flower schedule so prolly won’t get to big, still funny to see! Another bag seed that has been withering away on a windowsill somewhere joined us too! so it’s a full house atm with 11 different little ladies! Auto OG smells super nice, little chemical and lemony. It’s small but looks amazing, another week maybe 2? Had 2 gorillas in a pot together during veg and ripping the roots apart really set m back a little bit, they look a little light and are a lot smaller. Curious what’s still coming!!

12/13/24 chopped and hung. 12/16/24 trimmed but still hanging room is 69°F and 62% humidity shes very hashy while trimming. sticky and oily like fresh hash. very minimal trimming. thick spongey buds with dark greens and fiery red hairs the tips of sugar leaves are a dark purple, if i wouldve let her go another couple of weeks she wouldve gotten suuuper dark.

🤦‍♀️🏼 😩 Day 40 from sprouting from soil. I think I messed up. I got bloom boost last week that I added in my water and fed them like two days in a row, about 3/4gal total. I started a new seed and added more lights & I also removed about 4 leaves from lower plant that seemed to be causing a lot of shade. Now my baby looks like this. Yesterday the leaves were curled up and some of the hairs are turning brown. I gave it a half gallon of plain water yesterday & today. I was hoping it would grow more buds. I also have had a Fungus knat problem pretty bad. I was trying to use that organic spray didn’t work, I heard Dawn dish soap- that didn’t work (not for long) so yesterday I added those white things on top. Basically it’s a mess. I started this not wanting to put a lot of money into it, but it’s fun & interesting! I just wanna get better now lol! I’ll definitely be changing it up next round
