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.

Inhale for 13s, Exhale for 13s, Inhale for 8s, Exhale for 8s, Inhale for 5s, Exhale for 5s, Inhale for 3s, Exhale for 3s, Inhale for 1s, Exhale for 1s, Alignment. 1.618 More energy, more blueprint. A plant with both standard cellular respiration (occurring throughout the plant, including leaves and stems) and adequate root respiration will have a significantly higher ATP throughput than one restricted to only general cellular respiration in a limited way. Cellular respiration is the fundamental metabolic process that occurs in all living plant cells (roots, stems, leaves, flowers, seeds) to convert glucose into usable energy (ATP). It requires oxygen and produces carbon dioxide and water as byproducts. Root respiration is not a separate type of respiration, but rather a specific instance of cellular respiration occurring in the roots. Roots absorb oxygen from the air spaces in the soil to fuel their energy needs. Roots require a substantial amount of ATP for essential functions like nutrient and water absorption, as well as growth and maintenance of their tissues. The primary form of respiration in healthy plant roots is aerobic respiration, which is highly efficient, yielding up to 30-38 ATP molecules per glucose molecule. Anaerobic Respiration (Inefficient): If roots are deprived of oxygen (e.g., in waterlogged soil), they switch to anaerobic respiration, which is far less efficient, producing only 2 ATP molecules per glucose molecule and also generating alcohol, which can be toxic and kill the plant. Therefore, a plant with healthy, oxygenated roots performing efficient aerobic respiration in addition to the rest of the plant's cellular respiration has a much greater overall ATP production and energy capacity. A soil without organic matter will generally have a low Cation Exchange Capacity (CEC). Biochar is often prized for its potential to increase soil cation exchange capacity (CEC), but this effect is highly dependent on the specific properties of the biochar (feedstock and pyrolysis temperature) and the soil type to which it is applied. High-ash biochars, especially those produced at lower temperatures and applied to acidic or sandy soils, can significantly boost CEC by providing abundant binding sites for cations like calcium (Ca²⁺), magnesium (Mg²⁺), and potassium (K⁺). Biochar is more sustainable than typical organic matter for long-term soil improvement primarily due to its high stability and resistance to microbial decomposition, allowing it to persist in the soil for hundreds to thousands of years. This longevity provides a lasting positive effect on soil properties, particularly by increasing the cation exchange capacity (CEC) over time, while regular organic matter breaks down much faster. Biochar generally offers a much higher CEC than coco coir, though specific values vary greatly; while coco coir might sit around 40-60 cmol/kg, biochar can range from tens to over 200 cmol/kg, with sources like Acacia wood biochar or even coconut shell biochar often surpassing coco's capacity due to its porous structure, creating significantly more cation-binding sites for nutrients, making it superior for nutrient retention. Needs to be charged similar to coco but at a much higger rate. But shhhh.. It's a secret. Ancient biochar-rich soils in the Amazon basin (known as Terra Preta) provide evidence of carbon stability lasting over 500 to 2,000+ years. Recommend a balanced ratio of key cations, particularly calcium (Ca), magnesium (Mg), and potassium (K). A widely accepted general "ideal soil" cation saturation ratio is approximately 65-85% Ca, 6-12% Mg, and 2-5% K. That's roughly what I give mine. Can even add N in its NH4+ form

Day 36- LST adjustments. Each lady received almost a full gallon of water each. I also dosed each gallon with 4ml cal mag plus. I guess I would consider this week 1 of flowering. Next watering I'll introduce bloom nutrients. They getting hairy! I feel like I'm also seeing some improvement in each plant after Foliar Spray, so I'm hoping after this watering they'll perk up and not have more sick leaves to look at. Day 37- I did a few LST adjustments on the smaller plants. "Blue Marker" is getting pretty stiff so I'm afraid to tie her down and have only been tucking leaves. Probably just going to try to keep her spread out as much as I can do. No more LST for her. Day 38- They've been drinking alot of water and are thirsty! Now normally I water once a week, but they may need it before their next water time. Lowered the lights to 18" above canopy. Will see if I get any canoes or not when I get back home tomorrow evening. It smells good when I open the tent as well 👌. Only uphill from here on! Day 39- Ladies didn't show any light stress to me lowering them down to 18". Blue Marker looks like she needs to be watered. The other two are still heavy. Probably be watering blue marker tomorrow evening and starting bloom nutrients. Day 40- Watered Blue Marker today with 4ml/gal CalMag+ and 2tsp/gallon of Old Age Bloom. Will be watering Yellow Marker tomorrow with the same ratio. The runt still probably has a few more days until she's ready for a drink. Day 41- Watered Yellow Marker with 4ml/gal CalMag+ and 2tsp/gal of Old Age Bloom. Will be watering the runt tomorrow. Went ahead and snapped a lower bud site on the runt. Didn't look promising enough to warrant keeping it. As you can see in the picture, most of the leaves were shriveled up on it anyways. I also tucked fan leaves on all plants and measured Blue Marker (17.5in) tall and Yellow Marker is about 1ft tall. Day 42- Watered "Runt" with 4ml/gal CalMag+ and 2 tsp/gal of Old Age Bloom. All plants new growth looks better and doesn't look like it's traveling up plant. More and more bud sites are popping up. Yellow Marker looks farther along than Blue Marker. End of week 6!

The girls are starting to get really heavy, we may be forced to cage the rest for support, we couldn't move them much this week for fear of them collapsing..not recognizing or stopping the runaway stretch soon enough has come back to bite us..lesson learned about this strain.. the canopy is terribly uneven lol, we're just kinda letting them do their own thing at this point, we did drop 1 of 2 lights to accommodate the shortest of the group. The buds on this strain are incredibly dense, it looks like it will be some pretty good smoke ..we'll likely cut all feed by the end of this week, giving them roughly 2-3 to flush out..thanks for reading if you made it this far and happy harvests friends!!! 😽💨❤️💡🌱 https://youtu.be/KZXdy_l_b_A ~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~ 10/04/21 😾 Well it happened, they finally buckled lol, this bud is super dense..and more popcorn than we usually get ( ill make hubby clean it lol 😸) but even that will have some weight to it. We staked 2 of 3 plants and decided to switch to ph water for the remaining 3 weeks (or so)..thanks for stopping by grow family and happy harvests!! 💡🌱❤️😽💨 ~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~

Our Zamnesia Super Boof is a plant with low internodal spacing this time, but it promises to be one of those explosively compact plants, in my opinion. I've cleaned the bottom very well and haven't used any techniques. We've been growing well; the plant has low internodal spacing and hasn't sprouted much, but that's enough to make it a fantastic plant. We're in an 11-liter pot, with little vegetative growth and upright growth. Techniques chosen: The plant was left to grow upright, which means only a little pruning of the lower parts to prevent unnecessary growth and to give the upper buds the potency they deserve. We're 100% organic and 1000% Plagron, as always. The soil we've chosen is the recently launched Plagron Bio LightMix, which will allow us to start growing more smoothly and reliably, without the sudden changes that liquid fertilizers can cause. A week is more than enough, so let's not overdo it. We're in the early stages of flowering, but we're well-equipped with nutrients and additives. We've added: - Power Roots 1 ml/l (last week) - Pure Zym 1 ml/l - Silic Rock 1 ml/l - CalMag Pro 1 ml/l - Sugar Royal 1 ml/l - Alga Bloom 4 ml/l - Power Buds 1 ml/l Choose your favorite style and calculate your results on the website: www.plagron.com Our new 720W Spider King lamp from Vanguard Hydroponics is now at max. Z - https://www.zamnesia.io/en/531-growshop Super Boof is now available at Z - https://www.zamnesia.io/it/13317-zamnesia-seeds-super-boof.html Z - Super Boof: Here's your chance to grow one of the most sought-after strains of recent years: Super Boof, crowned Strain of the Year. 2024 by Leafly, and for good reason. A descendant of Black Cherry Punch and Tropicana Cookies, this balanced hybrid takes the already exceptional characteristics of its predecessors to new heights. Grow it at home to find out for yourself. Growing Super Boof: Easy and Highly Rewarding These seeds germinate quickly, producing mostly female plants with closely spaced nodes, large, broad leaves, and, at harvest, beautiful, voluminous flowers. Indoors, Super Boof plants reach heights of 100-120 cm, making them ideal for medium-sized grow tents, closets, or other small spaces. It's no wonder Super Boof was named Leafly's 2024 Strain of the Year: it's a dream smoke! Its resinous white buds, sometimes tinged with gorgeous purple hues, consistently deliver delicious flavors and a perfectly balanced effect. Thanks to its unique blend of terpenes, Zamnesia's Super Boof releases an intense aroma with notes of sweet grapes, cheese, and fresh vanilla. With a THC content of 26%, it offers a smoking experience that combines mental euphoria and physical relaxation after just one hit. Furthermore, its impressive resin production makes it ideal for those looking to make hashish at home. What are you waiting for?

Aug 12: Ideally would have left this go for another week or two but pest pressure (aphids) meant it couldn't wait. Chopped. Nice squat plant structure with a decent coating of the best smelling resin I've ever had on an auto - as I mentioned before, this one smells sweet and floral, like a mix or roses and bubblegum. Amazing. Very pleased with the outcome and would recommend to others who are looking for a 1:1 THC:CBD variety.
