Thank you to everyone for following this journey! The results were nuts. Honestly, I would've been happy with 40g dry as this is my first grow. I DEFINITELY did not expect this outcome which is insane. This gives me so much confidence in my future grows and appreciation for the companies whose products I used. So, now to the point - Dry weight - Top class buds - 176g, smaller buds - 32g, larf/leaves/scissor hash - 26g. To sum up - 208g of product you can smoke and 26g that'll go to edibles. First grow, 2x2 tent, 100w light, three-part fertilizer and cal mag - that's insane, especially because I was expecting nothing more than 60g and like I mentioned, I would've been happy with 40g. I even thought my scale was broken or something went wrong, I still can't believe I pulled 208g of bud. It took 117 days from seed to smoke - that's disregarding the cure. Seed to flower in 42 days. Flower to harvest in 61 days. 14 days drying. Thank you to FastBuds, I've sent them an email about the grow with some questions and got a speedy reply with some pointers towards the end of the flower. Also, I don't have anything to compare this grow with but I had 0 issues with pests which I was really happy about. I didn't have to spray anything on the plants, didn't have a single bug inside the tent. They mention on the website that NL is a very resilient strain so that might've been because of this specific strain. Spiderfarmer light did amazing too - 208g of bud from 100w light!. General Hydroponics did way better than I expected - there's so many companies with multiple bottles of nutrients that expect you to spend ridiculous amounts of money on their products while I got crazy results with just 3 basic bottles. Cal and Mag by Canna worked with no complaints. Takeaways - seems like the runoff pH doesn't matter in coco - I could be wrong but I struggled with coco pH from the very beginning. Regardless, the outcome speaks for itself. Maybe the harvest would've been even better with an optimal pH but in this particular grow, I don't think it mattered much. Before starting this grow I've done A LOT of research and it looks like it most definitely paid off! I was panicking at first because of the slow growth. The plant also had some leaf deformities and the color wasn't as green as I've expected it to be. It was stressful at first, I think especially because I was constantly comparing my grow to someone else's. This specific LST method where I kept rotating the main stem clockwise every day or two paid off as well. The canopy was relatively even and new tops grew crazy fast. The only thing left to do is to cure the bud. I had two 1.5L containers ready for cure/storing since I didn't expect to pull much but had to go acquire a few more "big boys" to fit all the product in, which is a good problem to have. I don't think that I'll be updating the cure here but the plan is to burp 2x/day for 15-30min each time for the first week and 1x/day for 15-30min the second week. After the first couple of weeks I won't be timing the burps. As of now, I've placed boveda 62% packs inside the containers to maintain a RH of at least 58% in the jars. About the Northern Lights strain - the smell hasn't fully returned yet post trim, but it smells like sweet fruits with a hint of black pepper. You can still smell a bit of pine/grass but I think that'll be gone after the cure. Buds are covered with trichomes, they shine like diamonds when you take a better look. Also, the buds look a little airy but are still really dense when pressed. The smoke - It's a tasty, relaxing high. I get why people describe it as night time smoke but for me personally, it grounds me a bit and I can enjoy it anytime. Also, it burns white ash :)) P.S. This is a lengthy diary but I hope that people can learn some stuff from my notes shall they read them! Thanks to everyone that followed the journey, showed support or just browsed through. Happy Growing everyone!

Sherbert Creamsicle is down!!! Small buds, but lots of them. BMX is just BEASTING away with arms of power. The resin is insane on these ladies. She's beginning to slow and ripen now. No more nutrients, just a weekly worm casting/molasses tea to keep my soil healthy.

Neue Woche neue probleme :slight_smile: entweder haben sie aufgrund der Temperatur gepurpelt, oder aufgrund PH Probleme allerdings glaube ich eher dran dass die Temperatur in der nacht dran schuld gewesen ist ! ansonten entwickeln sie sich sehr gut heute wurde gelollypoppt und im laufe des grows werde ich noch weiter entlauben werdet ihr aber dann im report lesen 😉 recht durstig sind sie aufjedenfall nächste woche kommt dann auch wieder der Hesi Boost hinzu. pro gieß tag werden 15 Liter wasser auf 4 pflanzen geteilt bei 20 Liter töpfen

Bud sites are all starting to connect colors are starting to fatten about 10% of stigma’s have changed color and the inner buds are throwing out a purple hue

💚Bueno esta gorilla auto está tardando un poco pero valdrá la pena, creó ! Jajajaj ! Su olor es terroso no es tan pasoso .. esperó que engordé mucho más 👽

Ну что сказать Досадно недоглядел, потерял 14 верхов жирнейших

Ciao ragazzi e bentornati qui con me le sorelle Mimorange.🍊😉 Ci siamo! Fra un paio di giorni taglierò loro. I buds sono estremamente compatti, profumati e di un colore favoloso, come potete vedere nei ravvicinati delle apicali.😍 Ho eseguito un lavaggio delle radici massivo nel giorno 92 con ben 20 L di acqua ciascuna per pulire bene e poi dopo aver aspettato che asciugasse per bene, ho innaffiato loro nel giorno 96 con 1,5 L di acqua.💪 Nel giorno 98 ho eseguito anche una voluminosa defogliazione per dare concentrare le energie suo buds negli ultimi giorni.👍 Eh niente ragazzi! Anche per questa settimana è tutto. 👊 Grazie a tutti per aver guardato e restate sintonizzati per nuovi aggiornamenti.🙏 Buona settimana e felice crescita 🌱 🌱 🌱

pistils start to turn brown maybe 2 more weeks before harvest. some topleaves show calmag issues because i gave too luch bloom booster 2 weeks ago looks wors then it is

They're coming along really quickly they're on week 2, the custom strain I have in here I crossed the sherb tree from the plug with EL chapo and this plant looks amazing and smells like cherry refreshers platinum Z is also looking very nice with a lovely sweet watermelon with a hint of diesel and they really do stink even though they are weak 2 getting excited already haha, they all look very good so far,, I did have 25 but a few of them looked quite sick and a few abnormalities and they really didn't like the feed I was given them so the one's got eliminated and I am now left with 15 of the ones I like, this small room is just for my testers before putting them in main room, the LED that is running is lumatek zeus 600 pro, this is my first try with LEDs I've always been HPS but I'm definitely turning my head towards them as these ones are shooting up and look very healthy, once this run is done if I feel that it comes out better with LED I will swap out all 6 lights in the main room and replace them with 4 LEDs, I have some sherb tree x meringue from Dutch passion, running concurrent I will try and get another diary going with them they are awesome. Thanks 😊

Very cold here 10oC, not much I can do as maxed out on the heating. Plant not the happiest but in we go

Havent had time to update the grow, but things are going great! Im in week 13 of veg and ready for flower finally! The girls are all ready except for one runt but im.not worried as the others are all pretty big rn. Just got a hydro x system by trolmaster to serve as complete environmental controller for me and also remote control via internet while im.away at my day job. I added a second net as a scrog 12inches above base of plants and have increased my original 4x8 tent to a 5x9 by cutting off tent and expanding the net surace area. Im afraid to veg any longer as i know the stretch is alawys more than anticipated. Also, the roots are getting massive in the 13gal pots. Safe time to start flowering now. Im excited and looking forward to the changes to come :) Thanks for taking the time to read this and check out my journal. Any comments are welcome and appreciated! Til next time, Happy Growing!!!

Getting bigger and looking healthy, only around 150 PPFD They seem to be sensitive to strong light, still too little Day 21 - topped the bigger girl, hopefully she catches up since she was already moving faster
