Week 1 flowering - Day 5 of flowering & Day 61 of life Finally flowering here. It’s been 5 days on flowering, still pre flowering but finally the best is coming. Black gum looks healthy and it grows many branches sides. It’s hard work to maintain but we never give up. Chasing good flavor, nice taste and good vibes on this one 🙏🏼

Growing feet. Reaching great height might have to back bud it . Has some smells. I can see the oils protruding from the leaves pores leaving a powerful aroma overall stenching up the whole pad.

Final Defoliation before I Flip to flower next Friday. Did a big cleanup under the ScrOG to direct all the energy to the tops. I also Reworked the Co2 Generator, let's call it 2.0 Generator. I know it might not be upping the Co2 tons, but some is better than none. Best part of the 2.0 you can see it working so you actually know there is some Co2 going in. Basically a 1 liter bottle with Sugar & Yeast with 1/4" tube that goes to second bottle with water in it. Tube is submerged so you can see it bubble about twice a second. the second bottle has another 1/4" tube that feeds through the grow room wall and connects to the back of a small fan that circulates the Co2 into the room. As I said not expecting a whole lot, but it can always be scaled up next round. The girls continue to grow at a good pace, 2" in 3 days and drinking about 1 gallon every 3 days as well.

It is growing sideways :) more leaves are appearing 18 hours - Daytime from 19:00 to 13:00 6 hours - Evening Time 13:00 to 19:00 It was necessary to buy another heating blanket the temperatures dropped a lot around here I already had a blanket keeping the girl company Warming Blanket 35x20cm 15W I put another blanket under the vase Heating Blanket 55x35cm 30W (A) Suggestions: -You can also buy tent heaters -And if you prefer, there are also electric towel dryers, they say they work! (B) The Analog Timer serves for lighting, ventilation and heating blanket Note: - They say that ventilation must be continuous so as not to harm the plant! 😲10 washed worms dropped in the pot let's see if they work well or destroy the roots of the plant

I grew two plants of the FFT1 testers. I started them indoors in the spring during COVID19 lock down. The germination date was the week of March 25, 2020. I didn't start the grow diary at that time because I was having a really hard time coping with the COVID19 non-sense and I wasn't sure I was completely committed to properly documenting the grow. In the end, I think this grow helped me cope... ha! So I topped one FFT1 plant, and let the other grow 'native' with no interventions at all. Both were grown totally organically with no added nutrients. We moved the plants outside on May 1, 2020 into our home made greenhouse/trellis. I took a few photos but I was still not committed to documenting the grow. I wasn't even sure if the plants would grow well considering I hadn't provided them with any nutrients at all. In fact I felt like I was neglectful of the ladies LOL. It became clear to me by June that these plants were gonna take off... they were growing like mad! I realized that I really HAD to share what was going on in my back yard. Also, I had made the commitment to FastBuds, and I was sure they would want to see the plants. I started this journal as soon as they started the first signs of flowering. By the time the stretch was done Big Mama (my first FFT1 plant) was an insane monster at 10 feet fall. Little Sister (the second FFT1 plant) was a solid 7 feet tall. Big Mama had been topped and mainlined and holy cow she was HUGE with eight main colas. Little Sister had not been topped and she was less than half the size. The buds were beautiful as you can see from the photos. They weren't super fat, and they weren't super frosty, but they were like piles of spaghetti noodles with beautiful streaks of amber. There were bud sites ALL OVER. Near the end of the grow, as the buds were 99% ripe I started to see small spots of bud rot in Big Mama. That's when I pulled the trigger and started the harvest. COVID19 put a real damper on our harvest party, but we were able to call in a few friends from our 'bubble.' Big Mama's wet yield was around 2600g and Little Sister offered 1300g. I was totally astonished. I have to LOL any time I look at the numbers LOL. We trimmed all of Big Mama by hand, but lost our steam for Little Sister. Her trim was rough, and we will have to use our Trimbag to clear off some of the foilage... I adjusted my dry weight numbers to accommodate for this. We dried them in the mesh tiered dry racks for the first few days and then moved them into large paper bags. They are not quite as dry as I think they should be, and so I have adjusted my dry weight numbers to reflect this. Total dry weight for both plants is coming in at 2000g total which is around 4.5 pounds. We put a bunch in the vapes and had a whole lot of fun! The vibe is a solid hybrid offering lots of energy for chit chatting and talking shit. But it's not a racy energy... it's somehow relaxing at the same time. We watched Alone on Netflix and made out... while eating ice cream and chips LOL. I was properly stoned. Stoned as fuck. My eyes were completely red and Njaak was a squinting grinning mofo. He's saying it's his new favourite, and that's before it's cured. This bodes well! So we have put the weed back in paper bags for the cure and are excited about this one. The flavour... we are going with sweet with a bit of citrus, but I think we need a bit more time to let it cure before we could offer reliable data. I'll update more on that later.

Day 65, 17th of November 2020: Strong lady! I was angry with me because 2 x managed to break bud sites....🤫🤐 She is so fragile but all good still looks good these one smaller sides so luckily nothing serious damage. Streching stopped or not she my strech a bit more....buds are on the way now haha Some lollipopping (defoliation) has been done and also removed all the old LST's as the plant remains in shape from now. And then after if you look at my pictures she has a crazily twisted main stalk and the plant is like the Leaning Tower of Pisa..... 🤣🤣🤣 So I needed to balance a bit and try to bring back to be normal..... haha Fertilization is still the same like before happens every 2nd day with the ratio and mix above. The lamp is on 11.30 min and off 12.30 min. Last week was 15 min longer light cycle.... So every week 15 min shorter light cycle until the 5th week. So far -30 min. It switches on at 6 am and off at 17.30 pm.

Raspberry Ripple Number One and Two (Flowering Plants) This week is the final week of Flower, I am noticing milky coverage on both plants and some amber trichomes as well. I gave the last watering today of distilled, dechlorinated water, with no P.H. Adjustments at 7.2 PH. I plan to harvest April 11th. Number One Pheno- The Number One Pheno is fully swollen and ripe now. The colas are densely stacked on the canopy. The foliage is quite over-faded, with some leaves being so dried out they crumble to the touch. I don't know if this is because the plant was in a bit too small of a pot or if my light was a little much these final weeks of flower. It is definitely ready for harvest! It's smells are still heavy in the raspberry candy department, with those hints of earthy leather on the back swing. Giving the number one pheno a very unique musk. The resin is greasy and plentiful! I can't wait to take this one down and trim it up to see how it looks in a jar! Number Two Pheno- The Number Two Pheno held out a little longer in its 5 gallon pot, it's a bit smaller of a plant. It's about 65% faded now but it's trichomes look finished! It's trichomes are very stacked out and coat this plant in a snow film! It may look a little boring next to its sister color wise, but it still sports some purple and pink hues under all the frost and I still think it'll be a worthy smoke as well! It smells of a raspberry wine but with that hazy fruity power. Almost like a strong mimosa strain. Clones- The larger clones in the 55 inch 2x2 MarsHydro veg tent, were starting to drink through water quickly! Mostly the larger number one phenos. Which would consume the entire dryback of their full pots in one day. I transplanted all the plants in the 55 inch tent into square pots (2 gallons for the Number 2 Phenos, 3 gallons for the Number 1 Phenos) this should hold them over for 3 to 4 weeks, so I can harvest and dry my flowering plants. I was unable to transplant the clones in the smaller Mars Hydro 30 inch Clone Tent, due to space constraints. I'll be feeding them worm castings and Down to Earth Crab Meal tomorrow. All the clones are looking healthy and look like they would be great candidates for flowering or mother plants. Tech Upgrade- This week I was able to purchase a Photobio Phantom Par Meter at a local grow shop's going out of business sale. With this tool I'll be able to get a dead on map of my light intensity and adjust accordingly. This will be great to have when setting up my new HLG Blackbird next cycle. I also got some 15 gallon grass roots fabric pots to try in the flower room next cycle. I also reached out to AC infinity and have an upgraded Cloudray S6 Gen 2 Oscillating Clip Fan on the way. My Gen 1 fan broke and would no longer oscillate correctly. AC infinity replaced it free of charge with the latest model. I think that about sums up this week! I'm very excited to take these plants down and begin preparing for next cycle. I was extremely lucky to get such amazing results of my first Pheno hunt. I can't thank Mosca Seeds and Tiki Madman enough for selecting such great crosses. It's hard to believe I got these two seeds as a freebie pack, with another order. I'm super thankful to have Grow Diaries to use and rely on for charting my week to week data, questions I have, and comparing my findings and results to other growers with similar strains, like @THCpapa grow of Raspberry Boogie! Thank you for checking out this week's entry of my growdiaries! See you for the harvest! -Starfish

I just cleaned the roots and I'm waiting until it's dry to chop her down, I love the smell and the compact nuggets that she has,it's just a very nice genetic to grow.

Spent a couple hours tonight making a few small adjustments to the grow. Did a fresh water swap again this week as a lot of the buckets were getting close to dry. Took the time to add some screws on each of the bucket lids to make some good anchor points for some LST to open up the canopies. Picked up a bag of clay pebbles to make sure the net pots were filled to the top to help block light/heat from getting inside the bucket and a roll of insulation wrap for the buckets. Last week the temps of the water started to creep up to about 72-74 in the day so wanted to try and get the temps back down to below 70. I also ordered 4.5” air stone discs for each bucket to replace the underwhelming 1” ball airstones I’ve been using. Been meaning to do this for awhile now and go once my schedule and adhd didn’t get in the way and they will be in tomorrow lol. EC - 2.2 (average) pH - 5.7 (average) Water Temp - 66 (average) Room Temp - 69 F Humidity - 50% Lights - 16-18” from canopy @ 60% Will be increasing lights to 70% and running 13/11 after a day or so for the following 2 weeks (hoping to help increase the density of the buds during weeks 5-7) Overall I’m happy with how everything has been going with this grow. Where I was hoping to get to try out the current culture setup the weather here has went from snow storms to 73 degrees and back and forth over the past few weeks. Once I get the mini split installed in the actual grow room this won’t be an issue….just need to find the time to get it done 🙄😫. If things stay on track with this grow I’m hoping to pull at least 4lbs of dry weight 🤞🏽 The next grow I’ve been thinking of picking out 2 strains from my grows thus far and running 18 plants of each strain (considering i have 2 -18 site current culture systems) Want to focus on yield for the next grow. Want to aim for 10-12 pounds. Will most likely be trying out an outdoor grow as well since the timing will be perfect to do an outdoor run.
