Welcome to my Black Jack..(After looking through my seeds and seen that my packaging for this strain. I've the normal Black Jack, not the FV) I seen this strain in the Sweet Seeds List when asked to pick. And it was a year ago. And I picked it from its pedigree and the fact I didn't do a FV of any kind, nor have I still. (I am actually doing their OG high prize pedigree strain. Even better. I've the Cream Cartmel FV as I got confused) She is a healthy girl in day 35 now. Really healthy. I Broke A few of her walls to bend it as it was all stacked up. (I've tons more pics of her progress hopefully I'll be able to pull up) But, as you can see. Her structure was mainly stacked so she was shaped and I let her nodes go hard as they do when HST'ed not for the fact to get big buds, as that's not when HST Is meant for only. Super cropping requires a lot of early hst. (Its simple you just fell a node by rolling it and bending it to fall where you plan to shape for a few days you need to make sure if sticks as if she's in any stages of rapid growth. She'll just grow straight back upwards Anyways. I've set her up nicely ill put her to flip soon.. After she pre flowers and does that full phase I'll HST and watch her few nodes explode. As she doesn't have a lot of foliage and I lollipopped a lot as you can see. Need to do plants with not a lot of mentinance as I've 21+ atm going. Every plant is healthy.. all at different stages and going according to plan actually an extra week ahead on 3 autos that have already moved into the fattening stage. FC 3000 is turned up to 100% and held at 40% away giving the autos 1000ish ppfd and allowing my whole tent to get more light. I've the light about 130cm up from the floor. Nutrient wise. Looks like a lot. Well if I were doing weeks. Power roots, pure zym are given once every 10 days or so. Alga Grow was stopped on day 30. I did give her she fish force only today. (Day 33 and 2 weeks ago) Terpinator will be applied in a few days and will be every 10 days or so until soft flush (water feeds for a wk, no run-off). ALL NUTRIENTS ARE EVEN DAYS APART AND ENZYMES AND POWER ROOTS ARE USED AS FOLLOW FEEDS. No ph'in as this is organic. TERPINATOR IS 6.4 WITH MY WATER AND I GAVE THAT TODAY 3 DAYS APART FROM HER LAST ORGANIC PRODUCT (As they hold a ph of 4 some are 9. But its organic and true organic soil doesn't need ph'in) only additives need to be brought in line with soil needs if using synthetic nutrients and should not be given near anything that may clash. Rule is if you're giving a different brand/type organic/synthetic don't put them in the same pot that will allow them to mix there ph's as synthetic nutrients require a set ph in soil where as true organics don't. Thanks to sweet seeds for giving me these seeds. Sorry it took so long to get to. Real hardy seeds. 1.3yrs old and they she looks great for a 33 day old lady.

Eccoci di nuovo qui!!! Super eccitato per questa nuova collab con Kannabia Seed Company, team davvero al top, che mi ha dato l’opportunità di testare questa nuova genetica e di condividere i progressi con tutti voi!!! Ma che colori ha?! Sono rimasto colpito da lei fin da subito e mi sono ritrovato tra le mani la migliore genetica del cultivo, seconda solo per sapore, odore e strato di resina devastanti, colori incredibili e una fattanza micidiale.. RESA ECCEZIONALE PER VASI DA 11L... SUPER CONSIGLIATA A TUTTI!!! Davvero senza parole complimenti TEAM!! Grazie a tutti per il supporto ❤️🍀🔥

Day 50 from reciving my seeds and equipment and day 46 since I put her into Coco: 25/Oct/2018: She is doing so well and is in her first week of flowering! I saw massive differences and a boost in her budding thanks to Canna PK 13/14 and for those that suggested I start using it (I started at 0.5ml per L, 3 days ago). Her roots seem to be doing very well (I see fuzz of healthy fungus and microbes on the roots when they sprout out of the fabric pot! Please send any suggestions on my use of nutrients!

Sorry for the delayed post I honestly forgot I started this one lol...they’re doing great I had some of those biodegradable starter pots that I used n prolly let them stay in too long tbh but now they’re both in their new homes! One is all coco and the other is top-half coco/bottom-half soil..thanks for reading/looking

Eccoci qui... Tutto va per il meglio, questa settimana non ho applicato stress alla piccola, ma ho guardato l'evoluzione che ha avuto dando i nutrienti. Ora ha un odore davvero intenso ed uno strato di resina pauroso, vediamo come si riprende dalla defogliazione che ho fatto settimana scorsa. Seguiranno aggiornamenti, grazie a tutti per il supporto🔥🌲❤️

The main purpose of chlorophyll is to capture photons of energy. When growth is no longer a priority for a plant in nature, it will naturally sink its "no longer needed" nitrogen and switch pigments to carotene and anthocyanin, which are better-suited pigments for environmental protection rather than capturing photons (growth). This is because of all nutrients used by a plant, nitrogen in its nitrate form is highly stable and required for the rigours of electron capture, ammoniacal nitrogen readily evaporates into the air during cure/dry. The ripening stage is no longer about growth, but the main priority is protecting trichomes and opening up the oxidative capacity of the plant so it can focus 100% of filling those trichomes. Nitrogen in its elemental nitrate form is no longer required during ripening to the same degree as it was; the vast majority of growth is over. Understanding when to shift a plant's focus from rapid growth to maturation is the key to maximizing the trichome quality and terpene profile of the final product. That is the single most important decision you will make during a grow in terms of dictating smoothness, taste, and smell, I have found from my limited years of dedicated and driven study into the matter. Synthetic nutrients maintain a near full nitrate ratio comparable to ammoniacal nitrogen, whereas organic nutrients maintain a supply of ammoniacal and convert only to nitrate what is needed. This is far more beneficial for organic growers when it comes to smoke smoothness, as the higher levels of ammoniacal nitrogen are far easier to dispose/convert than nitrates come harvest, cure/dry with far more efficient margins held within leaf/bud when it comes to conversion to aminos. A good dry and cure can go a long way to a quality smooth smoke, but without a proper senescence sequence or triggered autophagic sink of nitrogen, then you will be asking far more than can be expected from a dry/cure. It's one thing to sink the last 5-10% and convert the last drips to amino acids during the dry and cure, but leaving the plant fully charged with nitrogen in the form of nitrate is simply not going to taste good, no matter how much smoke you blow up your own ass or how long you have been growing. Means nothing. Smoke quality relies on pre-harvest physiology, not just the dry and cure! The dry and cure cannot fix poor pre-harvest metabolic states. A high-quality, smooth smoke requires correct signalling before harvest. While a proper dry and cure can gently soften the edges and convert the last 5-10% of sugars into amino acids, it fundamentally cannot perform magic on a fully fertilised plant. You cannot oxidise stable nitrates (+5 charge) into a smoother state during drying. Ultimately, accept it's going to be a heavy smoke and be grateful, onwards upwards! The way in which ammoniacal nitrogen reacts to carbon sugars is critical in how it acts during oxidation and is responsible for oxidizing leftover sugars that can make the buds smoke harshly. Limited ammoniacal equals limited oxidation of excess carbons held within tissues. Just so you know, it's not an anecdotal rule that's unresolved and unsubstantiated. It's called the Maillard reaction. Signal triggers and stressors. Normally, you can only use 10-30% ammoniacal nitrogen, but as harvest closes, it is beneficial to increase this ratio 50% of ammoniacal as it assists in steering the plant towards maturation. Rather than running 50% ammoniacal nitrogen continuously until harvest, use it in short, targeted flushes/additions (e.g., 7 days) to slow internode elongation and hasten maturity. Use alongside forced larger "dry backs" (allowing the root zone to dry out significantly between watering events). Raising the Electrical Conductivity EC of the medium to create mild osmotic stress. Widening the day-to-night temperature difference and increasing the vapour pressure deficit VPD. How would you like your cola's sir? Arm length, please, no gaps with trichomes as thick as snow.

Frozen hash and the highly pure 200-mesh dry sift) were combined: • Process: The aromatic Fresh Frozen material and the pure 200-mesh sift were laid out on parchment paper and repeatedly pressed and folded using a bottle. • Temperature Control: The pressing was done utilizing only body temperature (approx. 36°C). This mild heat was perfect to gently burst the membranes of the trichome heads and fuse the resins without damaging the thermally sensitive live aromas. • Shaping: Through repeated folding and final hand-rolling, three homogeneous spheres (Temple Balls) were formed. The outer, glossy-shiny layer oxidized slightly and now forms a natural, airtight protective skin for the soft, amber-colored core. 5. Storage & Maturation (Cold Cure) The finished Temple Balls were placed directly into an airtight and lightproof CVault stainless steel box without any additional humidity packs and put into the refrigerator. The planned curing time is 3 to 6 months to achieve full chemical fusion and maximize the creaminess of the Papaya Frosting and Bruce Banner profiles. Is Papaya Frosik XXL Schlagzeile: Gestaffelte Teilernte der Papaya Frosik XXL – Sicherheit geht vor! ✂️🍂 Pflanzen-Update & Training: Meine Papaya Frosik XXL ist zu einem absoluten Monster herangewachsen! Die Pflanze ist jetzt stolze 3 Meter hoch, extrem gut trainiert und dank eines mehrstufigen SCROG-Netzes perfekt gestützt. Der Hauptstamm hat an der Basis einen beeindruckenden Durchmesser von fast 7 cm erreicht – eine wahre Nährstoffautobahn! 🚀 Aktuelle Situation im Gewächshaus: Obwohl ich das Klima im Gewächshaus die ganze Zeit über sorgfältig kontrolliert habe, bin ich heute gezwungen, mit einem gestaffelten Teilernte zu beginnen. Folgende Phänomen tritt bei diesem Riesen auf: Dank der stabilen Klimazone ist der mittlere Teil der Pflanze bereits perfekt reif und unglaublich dicht. Gleichzeitig erhalten die obersten Blütenstände (die sich etwa 40 cm unter dem Dach befinden) die maximale Licht- und Wärmeintensität, wodurch sie weiterhin aktiv frische, weiße Stempel bilden. Erntestrategie & Schimmelprävention: Um das absolute Maximum aus dieser Ernte herauszuholen und jegliche Risiken auszuschließen, ernte ich ab heute in mehreren Etappen: • Zuerst der mittlere Bereich: Die Blütenstände im mittleren Bereich sehen phänomenal aus – extrem dicht, kompakt und komplett mit Trichomen überzogen! • Null Toleranz für bernsteinfarbene Trichome / Schimmelrisiko: Bei so dicken und fleischigen Blütenständen steigt das Risiko von Blütenfäule im Gewächshaus rapide an. Deshalb lasse ich die Trichome nicht zu stark bernsteinfarben werden. Sobald ich auch nur den geringsten Anflug von Bernstein sehe (schon die ersten Blütenköpfe, die sich verfärben), werden diese Blütenstände sofort geerntet! Mein Ziel ist ein sauberes, vollständig milchiges Trichomprofil für maximale Potenz und Frische, ohne Schimmelrisiko. • Die Blütenstände ernten: Die oberen Blütenstände, die noch weiße Härchen bilden, bleiben vorerst am Leben. Durch das Entfernen des mittleren Bereichs erhält die Pflanze einen massiven Energieschub, um oben vollständig auszureifen. Die ersten Testblüten aus der Mitte sind von absolut erstklassiger Qualität – das tropische Papaya-Aroma ist schon jetzt unglaublich! ❄️ Wochenbericht: Phase 2 – Kontrollierter Trocknungsprozess (Papaya Frosting) Nach der erfolgreichen Ernte der Papaya Frosting (Barney's Farm x Doja Exclusive) hat Phase 2 offiziell begonnen: der kontrollierte Trocknungsprozess. Da es sich um ein extrem harzreiches genetisches Profil mit einer feinen, tropischen Terpenmischung handelt, verwendet der Züchter ein sehr langsames und schonendes Trocknungsprogramm, um die wertvollen Aromen vollständig zu erhalten. Das Klima im geräumigen Trockenraum wird präzise gesteuert und konstant bei einer optimalen Raumtemperatur von 16 °C und einer stabilen relativen Luftfeuchtigkeit von 49 % bis 50 % gehalten. Durch die Einhaltung der Luftfeuchtigkeit knapp unter 50 % wird jegliches Risiko von Schimmelbildung ausgeschlossen. Ein großes, leistungsstarkes Belüftungssystem gewährleistet einen kontinuierlichen Luftaustausch, während ein oszillierender Ventilator für eine sanfte, indirekte Luftzirkulation im gesamten Raum sorgt und so die Bildung von Luftstau verhindert. In der Anfangsphase hängen die Pflanzen als ganze Zweige mit allen Blättern kopfüber. Diese Methode dient als natürlicher Schutz und verhindert, dass die dichten, „frostigen“ Blütenknospen der Papaya Frosting zu schnell austrocknen. Sobald die Blüten einen bestimmten Trockenheitsgrad erreicht haben, werden sie vorsichtig von den Stielen entfernt und auf ein Trockennetz gelegt. Dieses sorgfältige, langsame Vorgehen garantiert einen optimalen Chlorophyllabbau, beseitigt unerwünschte Aromen und lässt das unverwechselbare süße Papaya-Mango-Aroma im Endprodukt voll zur Geltung kommen.

Die Pflanzen entwickeln sich sehr gut. Der Durst der Pflanzen variiert und wird täglich angepasst. Es wird immer früh morgens gegossen. bei der größten sehe ich abends bereits das die Erde trocken ist. ich hoffe die Blüten entwickeln sich so wie sich der ganze grow bis jetzt verlaufen ist. einfach überrascht was in der kurzen Zeit alles aus den Pflanzen kommt.

sorry for the bare bone update but its just that time of year i will get back to real timeline on friday when i do week 8 plants are growing great the smell from these plants is strong almost cheese smell

The flowers are looking ready for its final stage! The stems are starting to go red, the top leaves are getting yellow, and the trichomes and starting to get white as snow! I’ve started feeding it water and then water with molasses every other day.

Growth has been great so far the main crown end up breaking .....see pic nxt week

Day 57 about to do my first schwazz Day 60 did a heavy defoliation. Not quite a schwazz. Almost Filled a 2 gallon bucket up with clippings a lot more light and air penetration is available. I think she’ll bounce back nicely Day 64. As the week comes to an end. I am very pleased with the progress. Canopy is nice and even. You can’t tell which one is the main cola. And for a little 300 watt light even the lower flowers are getting pretty dense. Still a long way to go. I would imagine this one will take over 90 days before see Amber. But we shall see

( 4cm in height ) Stress trained this lady 3 days ago because she was getting too long and slinky so I decided to help hear out and give some support. Very good growth development thus far and grows exactly like a Do-Si-Wine should. Growing strong at 3 nodes already. ( 4.5cm in height ) This lady is growing at her own pace. At this moment I’m waiting patiently until this lady catches some speed because she has been slowed down the leaf development has been disoriented The 2nd node is a 3-fanned leaf and the other side is just a 2-fanned leaf so growth is weird and a bit slow. The 3rd node developing looks like it both going to be 3-fanned leaves so I hope when that is properly developed this lady will growing nicely

Smells and tastes straight like a banana smoothie

Unfortunately she was cut too early but after 15 days of drying I could finally test her. Her taste has the creaminess and high of a classical WC but has a twist, a bit sour from Cheese. I did not liked her much but would try again just to check another pheno.

Got a new light this week, it's basically a HLG 260 R-Spec except locally manufactured using the same Samsung LEDs. Big Mumma got her 60x60cm tent today and will go in there under one Viparspectra 300W blurple (130w from the wall). I trimmed her, super cropped her main stem and added a scrog net in preparation of flowering her in the next couple of days. Because my other plants were getting up past 75cm after 7 days of flower (100cm is my absolute max) , I decided to supercrop the canopy back down to about 60-65cm - it was pretty scary and I definitely broke the outer stem on some of them. Also gave them a good trim. Fortunately most bounced back strong the next day which are the most up-to-date photos you see (17/4/20).

This week, my cannabis plant is showing some signs of thirst. Unfortunately, I had to cut back on watering due to a small infestation of fungus gnats. To combat the problem, I decided to apply nematodes. Hopefully, they will take care of the larvae in the soil. Despite the reduced watering, the plant still looks strong and healthy overall. The buds are continuing to develop nicely.🌱🌱 I'm really curious to see how things progress in the coming weeks, especially now that the pest issue is being addressed.💚 Be excited for the coming weeks 💚🌱🌱

The plant is topping, it feels good, the roots are developing well 🌱
