Flush.lavaggio

Both Barbarian (=AK-47 x Barbara Bud) plants are filling up more and the first pistils start to get brown, which shows the plants start to ripen and go towards harvest time. The smell they exude is STRONG now and VERY PLEASANT. The aroma is sweet, peachy with sandalwood undertones and is MOUTH-WATERING. The plants are TRICHOME MONSTERS and are covered in crystals, any little touch and your fingers stay sticky for hours.

July 7 start of week 9 first week of transition to flowering. July 8th I sprayed some (FSW) fermented sea water with (FPJ) fermented plant juice and (LABS)lactic acid bacteria as a foliage spray. Sprayed 2 hours before the lights came on. July 9th the girls loved the spray I made for them on the 8th July 12th I sprayed with WS-CAPO water soluble calcium potassium Foliage spray.

Very easy strain to grow. I grew the White Critical Express previous to this grow, I really liked it and wanted to try growing an Autoflower so I went for the Critical 2.0 and it was worth the grow.

Once again girl are stretching like crazy and had to be bent to avoid heat issues. Couple of branches snapped but luckily survived with some tape aid, I keep defoliating quite heavily other everyday but it's still jungle, one bigger defoliation coming on program today. I feel like the buds are forming pretty slow but that's probably because I look at them evey 2 hours haha Apart from the height issues and little bit of heat stress on the top no known issues :) Will update with some pictures tonight. thanks for checking <3

Same as there big sister, 54th day of flower.. These plants haven’t had any work done what so ever, not one leaf has been removed from the start, no folding of leaves, literally just left to flourish in there “natural” environment, and I couldn’t be more happier with what’s inbetween the “mess”😂.. buds are swollen and ❄️, stinking of 🍋.

Plants continued to mature this week and all the buds are getting fat they will have there last nutrient feed this week in prep for flushing and harvest next week. The Lemon Zkittles looks and smells amazing looks amazing. Nearly all the plants look and smell the small, good genetics and breading. The Cxx is again a very stable genetics and flowered and smells exactly as the last grow did. Good genetics. The Peyote Cookies and Shishkaberry also grew well and similar, good genetics. Afghan Kush amazing buds and very earthy smell.classic The gorilla cookies had a rather large variation in pheno types but all look amazing and each will be a pleasure to smoke.

Purple plant good. Other plants not so good, herming a bit. Glad they are in separate tents. Don't grow bag seeds...

Yesterday I discovered that, in order to change my timer, I didn't put the clock back onto it. Now they had 3 hours more light on the third day of flowering. Exactly the kind of oopsies this grow really doesn't need. But it happened and all back on a normal schedule, but I hope the OHS en GG4 aren't affected by it too much... One accidental re-vegging is more than enough for a year. Also, these sensitive strains can hermie on me for lesser reasons so from now on I'll be checking for male signs daily. The XTraKush is performing as advertised, with enormous stretch, these plants can go 10 ft up according to the breeder. So I'm tying them down and managing this to fill out the space. With all the stuff going on, this 'underdog' strain might even prove most resilient, when all is said and done. They seem to respond really well to the SP-3000 light and If you are in the market for a new light, consider this option from Mars Hydro. Thank you @MarsHydroLED for letting me try it, it is a dream of a light. I compared it to my old light again and PAR values are not even in the same ballpark. Thank you for checking my diary and taking the time to read my adventures! Hug Bud

Last week of flowering then switching to 12/12 light cycle. Put the other plant into a bigger pot. Roots looking healthy and plants are still loving the nutrients.

The plant is growing very healty and fast. Very happy with the results so far. Will keep documenting as this is a DIY project 😀

She's starting to show me why she's called Sherbet... getting some orang-ish throughout the buds & leaves are starting with a hint of deep purple. Using dirty aquarium water has been going great through flowering so far, no nitrogen toxicity. 3/11/22 - Defoliated for the last time! Defoliated so there's no moisture buildup between leaves, preventing PM. There were so many leaves, it looked pretty like a beautiful bush - but my intuition told me that those are going to hold too much moisture. Now there is enough space for the buds to fill out with even airflow throughout. They don't look as beautifully full after defoliation but they'll be cleaner & easier to trim come the end of flower. Aquarium water before nutrients: 6.82pH 395 PPM 73.4⁰F Nutrients added: 5Tbsp unsulphured molasses ¼tsp raw potassium ¼tsp raw phosphorus 2Tbsp concentrate Seaweed 1tsp mycorrhizal fungi powder Aquarium water after nutrients: 5.83 pH 787 PPM 73.4⁰F

I am not doing anything at all , this plant is just staying arround in my garden. i just tried topping technic the first time and it worked well. now i just have to hope that this plant will be a lady, then i think i will get a good harvest in september/october.

Song of the week : Kranium - Sidung ------- Day 58 - 03.12 - No more vertical grow but I had to do some more Hst on the tallest to fit in the tent. They are all forming buds but only #2 is green like I want to , the 2 others are pale ------- Day 60 - I made a short video to show them how they looks when they are outside from the tent. The #3 have a light burn due to the nights under 150w how. The soil I used was a regular gardening soil from the local store but It's astonishing how heavy this soil is even when It's dry bit when drying the surface becomes hard like rocks ( more than usual ) ------- Day 61 - Due to the rain I did not not them out today , I think it's the second time it happens and I hope it will stop soon because they are clearly too high and whatever the position I choose their is always one leaf touching the HID bulb 😒 I also made a short video to show you the box , I have add an extra 10w white light spot under the canopy and a 7w full spectum bulb under just because I had them at home , it wasn't planned at all.

I had a lot of fun with this strain and it was grown against 400 growers so let me say PHENO hunting is a true thing. Overall the Bud was a nice dense structure and the smoke on it was smooth and the high nice and even.

Still only giving them water the conditions are good no issues with the girls yet check out my YouTube channel for more in depth information about the grow :

So I chopped the plant today on day 48, so now it’s drying time. I’ll be back in one week to see the results.

Week 5 day 1. I have a favourite for next run. I’m very happy, I haven’t really defoliated at all this grow, just letting it grow. Wish I was going for mains(topping) but still very good. Going to wait around week 9 so seeds will be good for next run. I have decided to do very hard hst next round to show max potential. Very happy with supercropping so will do it very heavy with scrog. I will try to reveg the one I really like but it is difficult having only 1 set of lights and 1 tent. Plants are about 7ft tall, might just run 2 next round in 4x8 or will still continue to go 4 in the 4x8.
