This entry covers days 23-31. There is a timelapse of this past week, I hope you watch! I upped the nutrients DRAMATICALLY! I was quite concerned, checking on the plants multiple times a day checking for signs of nutrient toxicity. Luckily, all was good this week. In part due to upping her nutes, she grew so much! I can't believe how many more leaves she has. This week was the first week of some bondage for this girl. This was my first time performing that act, so I was nervous and made sure not to hurt her developing nodes. I tied her down in two spots at first, and in a third spot at a later date.

Hello, my green connoisseur! The moment we've all been eagerly awaiting has arrived—the Harvest Report for our botanical queen, Jealousy, in the Power Buds competition. This has been a journey filled with anticipation, and now, we stand on the shores of botanical triumph. Jealousy, in her final act, bestowed upon us a generous yield of 195 grams of dry bud. It's like a cornucopia of green abundance, a testament to the meticulous care and strategic decisions made throughout this green saga. Each nugget is a jewel, a culmination of weeks of growth, love, and dedication. But the story doesn't end there. Jealousy, in her love for the trim bin, gifted us a beautiful golden pollen. This precious powder, transformed into ash via the French Cannoli style. Also gave me a Charas/Finger Ash ball. It's like capturing the essence of the plant in a tangible form—a botanical relic that encapsulates the spirit of our green empress. Now, let's talk about the auditory symphony that accompanied the harvest. The sound, reminiscent of a tree making timber, is like nature's applause for the bountiful harvest. It's the soundtrack to a successful cultivation venture, a melody that resonates through the grow room, echoing the grand finale of this green symphony. The drying process, carried out over two weeks with a temperature of 17°C and humidity at 58%, is like the slow and methodical crafting of a fine wine. Each day, the buds undergo a transformative journey, evolving from freshly harvested flowers to dried and cured masterpieces. And now, the pièce de résistance—the preservation of terps with the Grove Bag featuring Terploc technology. It's like locking the aromatic essence of Jealousy in a time capsule, ensuring that every toke carries the full spectrum of flavors and aromas. The anticipation for the smoke report is palpable, as the strawberry candy profile promises an exquisite sensory experience. Reflecting on this entire journey, from germination to harvest, it's like turning the pages of a botanical epic. The decisions, the challenges, and the moments of sheer joy have shaped the destiny of our green empress. It's a narrative that will be retold, shared, and cherished in the annals of our horticultural adventures. As we conclude this harvest report, let's extend our heartfelt thanks and shout-outs to Zamnesia, Plagron, Grow Diaries, and the vibrant community. Your support and contributions have been the guiding lights on this extraordinary green expedition. To my fellow contestants and growers, may your own harvests be as abundant, flavorful, and joyous as this one. Here's to the culmination of our shared green dreams, the thrill of the harvest, and the anticipation of what lies ahead. Stay green, stay inspired, and keep cultivating those dreams! With true love comes happiness. Always believe in yourself and always do things expecting nothing in return, with an open heart. Be a giver, and the universe will respond in ways you can’t even dream of . Friendly reminder: all you see here is pure research and for educational purposes only.

2020-08-03 Had to add some yo-yos as the main colas are getting ripped now. I have had to mash the plant into the tent, it's hogging all the light from plant 2 but oh well, not much I can do now and the yield from Plant 1 will be nice. Running same nutrient ratios still. Plant 02 has never matured into a full drinker, plant 01 is up to a gallon of water a day and is doing great on 800 ppm. 2-3 weeks til harvest!!

Another week has flown by! The girls are doing great, cruise control this week as I have just been monitoring RH and temps. Trying to keep them as low as possible, I’ve been getting as low as 74 during the day and 68 at night. I finally took a look a look at the trichomes with my jewellers loop, lots of cloudy, and a few amber around the leaves and top colas, but still lot’s of clear trichomes. I’ve ordered myself a wireless/usb digital microscope to assist with the process, and looks like it will be here just in time to determine harvest day. 😎🎄 I started by eliminating the nutrients at the beginning of the week. I typically allow for 3-4 pure water feeds before I harvest, and at the rate they have been drinking, this should be enough to get through the 7-12 days they have before harvest. I don’t flush, but rather “rinse” with normal water amounts, allowing the plant to use up the remaining nutrients in the soil. This also allows me to recover most of the soil from my grows and reuse ♻️ with other soil mix. There has been great debate and a great deal of bro science out there for many years, but the recent studies suggest there is no difference in end result when it comes to flushing or using nutrients right until the end, if a proper dry and cure is performed. What do you think? What do you prefer to do? Thanks for reading this far, leave me a comment with your preferred method 👊🇨🇦❤️

The two larger (and older) CBD Cracks are looking very good, the younger one needs to kick it's butt into gear! We have a heat wave going through right now so hopefully they'll like it😎 I went out to water early this morning so they got a little lime water. I was hoping for a little more growth this week but hopefully the lime will do it's trick and help them along. They have plenty of nutes in the soil to use up and I don't want to mess with them too much early on. And yes, I did put tomato cages in their bags because my evil, spiteful cat was trying to dig in there and take a 💩 and I really don't need that...

Bienvenidos cultivadores de marihuana clandestinos, y también, a los que tienen la fortuna de no serlo!🖐️👨‍🌾 16 semanas de vida para esta planta hija de una Reina, nacida en casa y ahora cultivada al calor del hogar, siete semanas en horario de floración 12/12h y todavía tiene mucho que decir, su madre tuvo un periodo de 11 semanas de floración y si esta princesa sigue sus pasos los cogollos vana a ser majestuosos... a jugar He estado fuera unos días y al llegar todas las plantas gozaban de buena salud, las flores crecen y esta planta apesta, mis dedos se quedan pegados a las flores si las toco! Hoy al llegar he preparado una comilona para todas mis plantas, ahora, todos reunidos con música de fondo, hemos bebido felices y comido con placer y en abundancia... que siga el juego! Hasta la próxima... SALUDOS Y SALUD A TODOS!! ================================ Semilla obtenida el año pasado de la planta original, probablemente un retro cruce S1, un paso más hacia la auto suficiencia total en cultivos de marihuana! Mira el diario original: https://growdiaries.com/diaries/146971-grow-journal-by-defharo Info de la cepa original: https://en.seedfinder.eu/strain-info/Queen_Mother/Delicatessen/ Floración: 8 semanas Queen Mother es una cepa sativa estabilizada, gracias al minucioso y sistemático trabajo de selección y mantenimiento de la cepa, que el breeder Mario Bellandi, afincado en España desde hace más de 30 años, desarrolla sin descanso y con la máxima coherencia. El cruce inicial de esta cepa, y que hoy permanece intacto, surgió a finales de los 90 entre una sativa desconocida, cultivada en los altos de Tarragona (España) por la misma persona desde los años 60, unas semillas de la isla de Reunión y semillas de un cruce estabilizado de dos landrace congoleñas... ==============

'Sup Growmies, hope everyone's crop is doing great! Buds! flowering has started and the first bud sites have established, my canopy is pretty even, and I am pretty happy with her at the moment, I cannot wait to see how these flowers develop! The tent smells amazing, I cannot place the smell, its not your typical early flower weed smell, most of the normal green growth chlorophyll smell is already dying down. My time-lapse camera broke, so i'll have to figure out something new because I really liked watching them grow. also added some extra shots of the canopy in the video, which is probably what I'll do next week as I find a solution. I also want another bucket, outside of the tent, acting as reservoir, I think next week I am going to turn this DWC into a 1 bucket RDWC, for easier access and more importantly better temperature control. Plus, this plant drinks way too much, I can't keep up, even with this massive 33 Litre mayonnaise bucket, I'll add a picture of what I have in mind.. Next week I am starting Green sensation, its a finisher, which will give this girl access to some much needed PK for those pretty flowers. Thank you for stopping by, enjoy the rest of your week, stay safe; and keep growing!
