Week 16 – Harvest Today, March 18th, I decided to harvest after getting advice from several people. It turned out to be quite a job just getting the plant out of the tent. Removing the trellis net without cutting it apart was more difficult than expected, but in the end I managed to free the plant intact. After that, I trimmed away everything that wasn’t covered in trichomes. The plan is to use all the sugar leaves and popcorn buds later for edibles, so nothing goes to waste. Next step was taking down the light. I had it zip-tied up, so I had to cut it loose before continuing. Then came the actual harvest cut — I cut the plant at the base. That took a bit of effort, as my pruning shears couldn’t quite get around the thickness of the stem. Once cut, I decided to hang the whole plant intact. My humidity in the tent is relatively low, so this should help slow down the drying process and preserve terpenes better. Seeing the plant from all angles for the first time gave me a different impression — it actually looks like a larger yield than I initially expected. Up until now, the plant has been locked into the trellis, so I’ve only really been able to view it from one angle. Detaching the net pot from the root mass was another small challenge, but eventually I got it done. Now the plant is hanging, and I’ve set up good airflow in the tent. We’ll see what the final yield looks like in about a week. I will be honest and say the result (though I don't know yield) is not what I had hoped for. The trichome development seemed to stall, and I couldn't get the amount of milky ones that I wanted. I think two things came into play: first of all I had the accident later January. Second of all, the plant seemed to struggle at the end. I think it's because I use very hard tap water, and the large quantity of calcium locked out magnesium uptake. Added calmag had no effect (since that's also adding calcium). I can't be certain at the end of the day, but I've bought a RO system for my next grow. Finally, I found a small bud hanging limply from a branch. It was totally dry and must have hung there for a while. Of course I grinded it up and made a small joint, and it got me nice and baked. So it's looking promising! After dry: About 6 days dry time. 70g of a plant is not bad. It's more than double of what I got from the last plant. So in that way the grow has been a success. I got more than I expected, but it's all a bit larfy, sadly. Vaped some and got super high, so no complaints. Smoke was a bit harsh, so gonna let it cure some more before I start smoking it. The high is more cerebral than I usually prefer. It doesn't get you couch locked. Just gets you nice and relaxed with a high that goes more to your head than in your body. It has a strong smell of berries that have been cooked. Very sweet and almost like caramel. Underlying is the diesel smell.

Let’s go Day 36 !!! This week went real great, girls built up a lot of structure, and stayed super healthy ! Today they got fed just water phd at 6.5 ! They been really loving that balance! I also removed a lot of under trim since we are going into preflower , so had to shave up those legs lol ! It’s really great for them , the love that airflow , but don’t take off too much or you could shock your plants so be careful ! Can’t wait to see what these girls do this week ! Hope you all enjoy an are ready for another amazing productive week ! Peace , Love , an positive vibes to y’all Cheers LetsGrowwww!!! 😶‍🌫️💨💨💨💨

Marcado olor casi como a óxido de vino y gusto frutal. Gran cantidad de resina y efecto relajante. Lastimosamente el secado de ésta no fue bueno, hubo muchos alti-bajos de temperatura y humedad y estoy seguro de que con eso perdí muchos terps.

The girls are stretching nicely and looking healthy as can be. I added the second trellis for extra support when the buds will be ripening in late flower. There’s already some early ice, on the fan leaves too, so that’s a good start! Some pheno’s seem a little quicker with creating flowers, but since these are f1 seeds it’s not so crazy that there’s some difference. It looks like I’ve got either 3 or 4 quite different pheno’s, which is exiting. I’ll do a big defolation on day 21 of 12/12 so you’ll see that in the next weekly update 👌🏻

All in all this was an amazing harvest I usually have around 8-10 plants and harvest anywhere from 24-36 ozs per harvest with the 8 plants I had this harvest including the biscotti mintz and cookies USA I ended up with 898g total dry weight with all top quality flower. I’ve learned some things with all my previous runs when it comes to dialing in my quality and yield and definitely watching for those herms because I like to push my plants to the max when it comes to training ! GMO PUnch -Greenpoint I’m giving this a total score of 7-10! Biscotti Mintz- Barney’s farm Total score 10-10 Cookies USA score 7-10

2020-08-11 Another week gone by... Plant 01 is still fattening up, drinking normally. Plant 02 has been completely choked out of the lights so it's not doing very well. Keeping the nutrients the same as they are both pretty steadily drinking. Some death amongst the lower leaves on plant 02 and the buds are getting trichomes but not getting very fat. Plant 01 is very dense and sticky af. Excited to harvest in a couple weeks! The tent is definitely ugly as hell and the vegetative state clearly went on for about 2 weeks too long (first time grower) while I messed up the nutrients and other things that caused them to grow slowly. The 2nd plant never really recovered. I have continued defoliating and super-cropping plant 01 away from the light and keeping the distances even... It's an ugly canopy, can't wait for the next one so I can get it right!!

She's healthy and going strong! Smells absolutely amazing. The only issue I currently have is the light being far away from plant because there is another plant in the tent twice her size. It's not terrible though

All in all a great genetic. Grew into insane colas. The photos above are of only half the total yeild as I have 8oz bagged up and sealed. After a weeks curing it has improved but not enough to really blow me away. I'll be back to seek my revenge in the future but for now its goodbye.

Dernière semaine de croissance. Changement de solution fait le dimanche 22/11 car le ph commençait à descendre en dessous de 6.2 et cela faisait 1 semaine que j'avais fais le précèdent changement. Le PH lors du changement était de 6,8. Il est monté jusqu'à 7.5 mais je laisse le filtre faire son oeuvre. Il est actuellement à 7.1 et continue de descendre naturellement. carence en fer. Ajout d'une dose supplémentaire de Sensi CalMg Edit au 25 : Malheureusement ce que je sentais venir est arrivé, saturation en N. Le Ph et l'EC continuaient de baisser tous les deux. Les parties basses des plantes étant sombre et ayant une carence en fer sur la partie haute (puisque élément mobile), j'en ai déduit que c'était une carence en fer induite par une surfertilisation en N. J'étais à un EC de 1, je suis revenu à 0,8 le mardi 25 au soir. La bioponie est très capricieuse au niveau de l'azote. Le mercredi 26 le ph remonte ce qui signifie qu'on a stopé le processus de dégradation du N. Je devrais changer la solution mais je dois passer bientôt en flo donc j'ai enlevé de l'eau et rajouter, histoire de tenir jusqu'au prochain changement de solution qui est prévu samedi sauf si la situation dégénere de nouveau avec le PH. Last week of growth. Change of solution made on sunday 22/11 because the ph was starting to drop below 6.2 and it's been 1 week since I made the previous change. The PH at the time of the change was 6.8. It went up to 7.5 but I let the filter do its job. It is currently at 7.1 and continues to drop naturally. iron deficiency. Addition of an extra dose of Sensi CalMg Last update : Unfortunately what I felt was coming has happened, N saturation. Ph and EC both continued to drop. As the lower parts of the plants were dark and iron deficient (on top because is mobil nutrient), I deduced that it was an iron deficiency induced by N overfertilization. I was at an EC of 1, I came back to 0.8 on Tuesday evening the 25th. Biopony is very capricious in terms of nitrogen. On Wednesday the 26th the ph goes up which means that we stopped the N degradation process. I should change the solution but I have to float soon so I removed some water and added more, to hold until the next change of solution which is planned for Saturday unless the situation degenerates again with the PH. Ultima semana de crecimiento. Cambio de solución hecho el domingo 22/11 porque el ph empezaba a bajar de 6.2 y ha pasado 1 semana desde que hice el cambio anterior. El PH en el momento del cambio era de 6,8. Subió a 7.5 pero dejé que el filtro hiciera su trabajo. Actualmente está en 7.1 y sigue bajando naturalmente. deficiencia de hierro. Adición de una dosis extra de Sensi CalMg Ultima hora : Desafortunadamente lo que sentí que venía, la saturación de N. El pH y la EC continuaron bajando. Como las partes inferiores de las plantas eran oscuras y con deficiencia de hierro, deduje que se trataba de una deficiencia de hierro inducida por la sobrefertilización de N. Estaba en un EC de 1, volví a 0.8 el martes 25 por la noche. La bioponía es muy caprichosa en términos de nitrógeno. El miércoles 26 el PH sube, lo que significa que detuvimos el proceso de degradación del N. Debería cambiar la solución pero tengo que flotar pronto así que saqué un poco de agua y añadí más, para mantenerlo hasta el próximo cambio de solución que está previsto para el sábado a menos que la situación degenere de nuevo con el PH.

This week all 3 Pheno continue to stretch, which likely will continue through end next week (week 4 flower). Fed girls Recharge prior to defoliation at the end of week. Day and night tent temperatures were constantly between 78F and 65F degrees. Relative humidity a consistent 55%. Using an online calculator found VPD range from day 1.48 (kPa) to 0.95 (kPa) at night. About as closed to optimum as one can get given existing equipment/tools and recent substantial rain in the SoCal region. Due for watering tomorrow, so prior to, I will top dress with worm castings, compost, and Langbeinite 0-0-22. I believe this should carry the 3 through to harvest. Breeder flower time listed is between 56 and 70 days. We are at day 20 flower as of today.

What's up Harvest day .. Honestly I would have left this beautiful Peyote Critical to mature a little longer, but unfortunately the environmental humidity got very high and I was struggling to keep it below 65% .. also because of this, the trichomes have their maturation slowed down a little. However, 10% are amber ... they will partly diminish later, if I do a proper drying (7/10 days) and a good cure of about a couple / three weeks .. So by eye I think I will get roughly between 29 and 32 grams .. We'll see ... I will perform a whole-plant drying, removing only the few remaining medium / large leaves .. It has some beautiful purple color nuances.. Super super sticky .. Perfume from good kush, with earthy notes, mango?, sweet but pungent ... In about two weeks I will clean the buds well, before putting them in the jair.. Ah and I used a led light of 205w .. but we need to divide the absorption for three plants of Peyote C. + 2 automatic LSD that were at the corners of the "Grow" (without mylar cloth) for two months + 3 Kush Cookies in the last two / three weeks .. I will update with photos ... Smoke test..about after November 15th .. Vape test..maybe in ten days.. It was nice and easy to cultivate this strain... I certainly recommend it for those who want try out the draws.. Lots of resin.. We get it.. I hope you enjoyed it.. Thanks for the time🙏.. Have fun...do clouds.. 😄👌😉. Update 7 days 25t ° 60% ur, whole plant + manicure when not too dry yet + 2 more days in brown paper bag (open several times a day to move the flowers). This is one of those cases where in such a short time a strain is already good to taste..for example the other two peyote critical, with which the same identical procedure was done, now that they are in pot for the cure they do not have yet the scent that this already has, like a lots of strain I grow in past..anyway.. Vape test (mighty). 180/186/190 ° taste really good..woody, mango and partly has the same scents that I found in Vanilla Kush(love it).. slightly earthy but the sweetest flavor prevails..also of something else but I can not distinguish really..very good... I thought I could find a taste more than kush "classic"..instead it is a kush but particular, more sweetness.. Quite relaxing effect, from good kush..this I feel that in particular it also relaxes the muscles very much, mentally quite concentrated but relaxed.. I underline that in the vegetative phase I did not give her any nutrients if I did not humus worm in the soil + the soil itself (light-mix).. I did three transplants ..the only liquid used at the start was Root juice..the last transplant, at the bottom of the vase I put about 1/4 of the vase, a super soil created a few months ago as a test, composed of volcanic rocks and other various "natural" components(you can read in first week)😊 .. Later I gave Melassa twice during flowering + two / three times macerated organic banana.. He had only 205w Black-Dog LED as lighting, but to be subdivided with two more of the same strain plus two LSD, also Barney's, plus another three Kush Cookies on the sides of the "Grow without walls".. The final weight of the buds is 16 grams of sun main peaks + 6 grams of popcorn buds... Quantity of really exceptional resin...top of the top..🔝👌🔝👌😍😍 ✌️

👉The plant is looking vibrant and seems to continue to flourish, albeit seemingly taking its sweet time. Seems like its in slow motion compared to its veg cycle. To see changes you have to look close or compare pix from a couple days apart. The flowers are getting more aromatic, and has the typical wonderfully sweet lemony stank think going on. Super frostiness as can be seen in the pix. The trichomes are totally illuminated by the lights used by my camera (flash and an LED worklight). May rival the gorilla glue for frosty overload. No new nutrient issues have shown up. The burned tips remain and I hope my good fortune continues. It developed a lot of smaller branches and will have lots of pop-corn buds. Shouldn’t be too much of a big deal and will add to the hash production in the end. 👉My time has been slightly curtailed due to work demands and I hadn’t been able to mule any water home until today. In the absence of the 98% pure water I get from a medical facility, Ive been using tap water run thru a 1cf carbon tank. The tank dechlorinates the water, I use it for my outdoor patio garden of herbs, peppers and single tomato plant. The pure water was 4micro siemens conductivity, the carbon tank water is 45micro siemens (tap is 245). The carbon tank water is far less reactive. This is evident when adjusting the pH. A batch made with the RO water needs just a few drops of pH down to reach desired pH. A batch made with the Carbon tank water takes a couple droppers full. Ive also noticed that the plant may not be able to absorb as much of the nutrients with the carbon tank water. This may be pure anecdotal stoner’s observation, but the EC of the run off has been almost impossible to get down to matching inflow. Its staying 20+ and shoots right up to 30+ each day. I started just giving double volume feed water and no low EC solution. Partly because I broke one of the jugs which I used for mixed solution batches. The high EC run-off may also be a result of the dried nutrients on the side of the pot being washed away more due to the higher volume of inflow. So I may be chasing my tail on this by giving full strength nutrients at double the volume with double run-off. Good thing is that you cant over water in coco unless you try really, really hard. 2 fertigations in one day isn’t even close. The plant is drinking more each day as measurement of the run-off compared to inflow shows the saturation volume. I fertigate in two steps when doing high volume, divide total volume in half and feed half and then measure the runoff. I then feed the second half and again measure the run-off. The difference between the inflow and run-off is the amount taken in by plant and lost to evaporation. I split the total in half to get a more accurate measurement of saturation level and plant intake/evaporation level. I then use that information to help predict how much solution should be given at the next fertigation event. This coming week I will be switching to the late bloom solution mix recipe for the GHE drain to waste chart. I mix it to the upper level strength for desired EC. The difference is slight. It removes rapid start from the mix, and reduces others slightly, except for bloom and micro. I should be able to return to the RO water for the rest of the grow. 👉I haven’t taken an actual measure of the height this week, but at tonight’s fertigation I measured the tips of the center colas were 15” from the light, so I will raise them in the morning back to 18”. The plant could probably take being fairly close to the lights, but I don’t think its nessessary to risk light stress if I don’t have to. There is still 6 more inches of verticle room to raise the lights. If the 99 decides to just keep going slow and steady, packing on bud-age, I can also spread the lights outward and angle the lights to give the two top colas more space.

Hello growers! Tonns of defoliation and branch management this week. I added 2nd pack of stretching wires I actually don't know how to manage THAT amount of branches Shall we count this stage as a flower or veg. Well, it's transitioning At the beginning of the week PPM was 1040, by the end it's 1700+ It's hard to maintain correct level, when we add water, not changing it, i wanted to add more bloom nutrients. And she dinks well now.

Wow guys, look at all this sugar leaking out of these buds! I'm going to end up doing like Winnie the Pooh when I put my hand in the jar! I already know it!😅😅😅😅
