Day 40-47 (May 31st- June 7th)
(Day 41) For the first time in this grow these plants are looking halfway decent. Smell is ramping up too. I finally feel optimistic about this grow.
(Day 42) The two jacks and the chunky blueberry are showing early signs of N/Mg deficiencies. I know it’s late in flower but since I’m experimenting with this tent, I’m going to give them one final feeding of nature’s pride 2-5-5.5 (tbsp) along with a teaspoon of oyster shell flour and some rock dust. Everything else I’m going to give a teaspoon of rock dust and oyster shell. There is no way these amendments will fully break down in time to be used by the plant but they could at least use the pH buffering and trace amounts of minerals after their recent leach.
Everything but the BAOGC is covered in pistils that don’t really match their bud size. I hope they fill into their pistils because an over abundance of hairs drops the bag appeal like crazy.
Over the last few cycles, indoor and outdoor, I’ve definitely learned that different strains and phenotypes mature at different times. Sometimes really radically too.
(Day 43) None of the plants are fading at all but they’re still looking good. Black garlic I know should be fading but remains dark green and toxed. I popped a developing seed out of the main bud too. I wonder if that blueberry herm branch pollinated it at all. It seems like plants don’t really like that Destiny dark matter soil by itself. I find it works better mixed with coco or promix 1:1.
(Day 44) I’m starting to think I might be mixing up the TWOG and BAOGC. BAOGC took forever to fatten up last round and the 2 phenos I suspected already look done. I was thrown off by the similar terps. The beauty phenos are definitely TWOG
(Day 45) God these Jack Herer’s smell good. Nothing but fruity funk. Almost like a vanilla or blueberry yogurt. I would say this stuff has the most overpowering smell in the tent now. I’ve noticed they’re starting to foxtail like crazy. Blueberry#1 too.
I’m watering a final low strength feeding of seaweed extract on everything.
(Day 47) Everything really fattened up this week. Even at the beginning of the week I was saying I didn’t think they would fill out. Jack Herer and BAOGC specifically made some big gains and nearly doubled their density and still have quite a way to go on them too! The smell has ramped up and finally, everything is looking happy and healthy.

Increased the amount of nutrients, water and food. Manual 12/12 light cycle at 100% most the time. Fan on 24/7.
Continued to trim smaller branches and budsites bending a few branches to fill out the canopy better.

As she gets closer to the end these fat dense buds are filling out with a ton of trichomes that are so beautiful some almost look purple when the light hits just right. I can’t wait to try this bud out I’ve been so impatient about this cause it looks so good stay tuned for the chop soon only 2 more weeks!

week intel:
we reached the peak of flowering stage and need to cause a little more e.c stress from this week so e.c stress is twice a week
i reduced the amount of Nitrogen and calcium and stopped feeding silicate in other hand i raised the amount of base nutrient and booster
short story version: more K & P - less N
stresses :
a little E.C stress around 1 and 1.2 twice a week from this week
feeding:
i feed them 3 times this week with this order :
day 1 : i feed them high with base nutrients(calcium & micros (half dose) + Bloom) about 566 ppm - 1.1 e.c to cause a little stress.
day 3 : i feed them low dose of Top-Max + B-52 around 392 ppm - 0.7 e.c to let them recover a little but not fully recover still a little stress will caused.
day 5 : i feed them high dose of Feeding Booster around 630 ppm - 1.2 e.c to cause e.c stress again
guide of the week :
e.c stress if done correctly is one of the very few ways to increase quality in all aspects ( color , aroma , taste , bud structure , resin contents ) but if you over do it , listen carefully brother : it can reduce quality in every aspect so always look for signs and never reach the red line

So we're a couple weeks into flower now. I finally got my hands on a ph meter. Our water has a ph of 7.8 but with nutrients comes down to high 6s. Runoff ph was 6.3ish. I'll keep an eye on it the next few feeds and see what happens. Had a couple weekends where I've been away and girl has dried out a bit between waterings but she's held up under the stress ok. LST has been reasonably successful for both my girls. Will see how yield compares to prev grow. Have just got my hands on some bud burst which I've started adding today.

Hello Growmies,
The final chapter of this incredible journey has unfolded, and it's time to share the bountiful harvest and reflections on the entire cultivation process. Trimming the plant was a joy, and with gentle fingers, I removed all the large fan leaves. The precision in this process revealed the true beauty of the buds, setting the stage for a smooth harvest. With care and gratitude, the plant was chopped, and the buds were hung to dry. The anticipation for what lies ahead only adds to the sense of accomplishment. The wet weight, excluding fan leaves, stands at an impressive 782 grams. The buds are massive, a testament to the efficacy of the nutrients used, particularly the Power Buds. The name seems apt, as the result is a collection of sticky, dense buds with subtle lemon notes and sweet pungent undertones. In the final moments, the plant unveiled some delightful purple hues. While I wish I could have allowed them to intensify further, it's a reminder that each grow is a learning experience. In hindsight, a slightly longer fading period would have accentuated those beautiful colors. We live and learn, and that's the essence of this journey.
A heartfelt thank you to Plagron and Zamnesia for hosting this amazing contest. The quality of the products and the support throughout the journey have been invaluable.
As this chapter concludes, I'm left with a sense of fulfillment and gratitude for the collective experience we've shared. The plant's growth, from seed to harvest, has been a testament to the art and science of cultivation.
Feel free to check out my other adventures in my bigger environments, until then...happy growing!
Stay Lifted

Plant looking OK with signs of pre-flowering. All LST'd stems almost fully over pot edge and nodes on the stems developing well. All plants currently growing seem smaller when I compare the pics to my previous grows at the same age. Only one feed this this past week as I allowed the pots to dry out from the rain in the previous week. Supplemented feed yesterday with my Beneficial Booster. I made a mistake when preparing and put in double the amount of molasses but the plants seem to be tolerating it so far this morning.

Dont know why one of them is 1.75 m.
In the description they say BB Kush will only grow up to 0.70 m or 1.00 m max.

Chug chug chug! I think I have about a week or two left for most of them and probably like 4 of these will need an extra week or so aha.
Frosting up beautifully; the camera does no justice!
But I believe I should start reducing my feed or either flush with molasses and kelp like I’ve grown fond of doing come close to harvest time.
Again the smells emanating from this tent is so beautiful, candy sweet orangey smells 🌬️🌬️🌬️

What should i say. My fear was reasonable. Even so i sprayed Purolyt and fed Silic Rock, i found mildew on day 75. I gave her another chance and wanted to wait until i woulkd find another place with mildew.

The plants are thriving in their 4th week of flowering, and I couldn’t be happier with their progress! 🌟
Adjusting the nutrient mix for the coco substrate has really paid off, and both plants are responding beautifully.
The trichome production is impressive on both, but interestingly, the plant without LST is slightly ahead in development compared to the LST variant. 🌿💨
The buds are forming nicely, and there’s already a noticeable aroma in the grow space. It’s predominantly sweet, with hints of something deeper starting to come through. 🍭✨
So far, everything is looking on track, and I can’t wait to see how they progress in the coming weeks!💚💚💚

Day 31, Stacking nicely. She will get another dose of Green rush Beefy bud on day 35. Day 39 a dose of microbes and molasses with some Seaweed extract for Potassium boost. A nice defoliation on day 40 or so to shape up all the Colas. Should see some nice progress in coming weeks and hopefully some purple big buds ! Thanks for checking her out !
Strong Limonene terps, i removed anything trying to grow under canopy and wow the lemon zest was crazy! Gassy Lemons and Candy! First smell i could almost compare to Prestone ( coolant you put in vehicles ) with some candy notes. It does make me think its leaning on the sativa genetic side but we will see. It did stay nice and short and might have stretched 8 inches or so. It will be a nice hybrid for sure !
Defoliated on Day 34. Removed any big fan leaves blocking nodes.

Vous avez deviné cette semaine fut celle de la taille. Enlever de nombreuses feuilles🍃 et des tiges pas intéressantes pour que la floraison ce focalise sur des branches bien choisie.
🌿 Nutriment Bio-nova NPK et Bloom PK. Je gère pas encore ces nouveaux engrais, mais ça va.⚗️

The purple punch cookies is looking happy. Will be switching them to flower in a week or less. I gave them a flush and fresh nutrients. The humic acid really makes a huge difference in the uptake of nutrients. I am at about half dose on nutrients compared to what I would have to feed without it.
Winter is approaching and bringing the low humidity with it. All of the humidifiers I have tried either dont work or I have to constantly refill the tank. So I decided to use my redneck engineering skills to throw this humidifier together. It holds 4 gallons of water and she pumps like a freight train. I have dubbed her the Steam Queen. I got 2 cool mist foggers that put out about 400ml per hour each and used some things I had around to make them a little float. Added an old computer fan to force the mist out through a 2 inch pipe. She won't win any beauty contests but she pumps out plenty of cool moist air. I also upgraded my exhaust to a variable speed for more added environmental control. Just going to do a little more training over the next week then try to make some buds.
