Actually, I seriously considered continuing this grow with this specific genetic strain. Does it even make sense to keep "Rihanna" going? 👀🤷🏻‍♂️ But she fights every single day—who am I to decide that her life should end?! I’m going to keep growing her, and I intend to disprove the breeder’s claim. They suggested that Rihanna entered the flowering stage prematurely—and looks the way she does now—because of the 16/8 light cycle I’ve used since day one. I’m going to show that she can still develop into a perfectly normal lady, hopefully with some amazing terps! 🤭😉 Here is her progress in week 2; even if there hasn’t been a massive amount of change over these 7 days, at least something is happening. Step by step.

16 days transplant to 3.5 gal Dutch bucket with perlite. Auto watered every 6 hrs with newts ppm 680 we will get some burn. It will be ok. Should be mild but strain depending. We She all see who gets upset. They are now in the Greenhouse. So it's up to the Sun and 2 - 1000 watt HPS ( for supplemental light ). Grab a chair and hold on. Don't forget the popcorn.

The purchase of a new light finally! starting to fill the tent so will need to possibly defoliate soon. Leaves are a much nicer colour. At the end of the first video shows the start of the leaf claw. Didn't notice it for about a week after this. :(

The plants look a bit damaged and need some care as I was on holiday for a couple of weeks. They have been watered every 2-3 days but have not received any further care, despite this they have grown quite a bit. Durban Poison is the first to start flowering. Frisian Dew wants to continue growing skywards, I think the story of the beans growing up to the sky will soon have to be rewritten. I will then hire a ladder to measure the size of the Frisian Dew. The Shaman and the Frisian Dew are about to start flowering in the second week of August. The Shaman in the garden has had a huge growth spurt. Shaman in pot 147 cm Shaman in garden 180 cm Frisian Dew in pot 230 cm Frisian Dew in garden 190 cm Durban Poison flowering 160 cm

All good and looking happy. Started some LST. I was undecided if I was going to train these girls but decided to do it. I gave a 1/4 feeding of Advanced Nutrients Sensi Cal Mag extra. Now that I've had a good watering schedule down with slight dry back they have been surging with growth! One starting to flower fast and the other is right behind it.

EC Meter broke and accidentally refed the plants double nutes at 1700 EC. Also never measured the pH while flushing with RO water. The runoff is all over the place reading up to 2500EC and 7+ pH. Realized the pH doesn't matter as much but the PPM runoff still is important. Flushed them for a day and transplanted them up to 5 gallon pots to refresh the medium. Also highly recommend dusting your roots with mycorrhizae when transplanting. The beneficial microbes attach to the roots and help metabolize the nutrients being fed for faster root intake.

I MADE TOPPING AT THE BEGINNING OF THE 3RD WEEK

Struggling with nute lock then I over flushed but it seems like it leveled out now. I'm thinking she might only have 1 more week in her. Let me know what you think.

Swapped the plants this week as I realized I could use the 200w light to cover both the smaller plant and the lower canopy of the larger one more effectively. Hopefully this will allow sufficient light to cover more of the plants, as the lower canopy of the larger plant was 30 inches from the light! Now since I can lower the bigger light to accommodate the shorter plant, I can cover the left side of the bigger one, lowering the light to 23 inches, which is definitely better. The buds don't seem to be filling in quite as quickly this time but they are definitely making progress! I am guessing about another month, but who knows? I'm going to let them take their time and let me know when they're ready. Other than that was a pretty uneventful week, as I'm kind of coming into the final stretch I have stopped the lst and only trim the leaves that are blocking bud sites. They definitely appear more stressed than they have been, with a lot of bright purple stems connected to the leaves, but to me they look healthy enough to make it to the finish line!

12/4/26.day 66 after shedding the shell.harvest day.it's fastest strain from my practice

We are starting the last weeks. Ripening and trying to get them salts out before its harvest time. LSD-25 still the Star of the grow. And thats good, because its my favorite strain. 😁

Day 36 I guess I can call it bloom. Nice strong pistils shooting all over. She is the tallest so far making me raise my lights a little more. Day 38 Now Californian Snow is the tallest :) Ztrawberry stopped at a perfect height, it looks like she's gonna develop into a beautiful lady. Fat white pistils all over 😻 Day 39 Happy girl got 2500ml cm bg bb bh 6.3ph ~1EC She is perfect, symmetrical, stopped stretching at about 50cm, flowers are mostly leveled, branches are strong, leaves point up unless I water. I think she's also turning purple. Beaut 😻 Day 42 I think I saw some burnt tips but she still looks super happy and healthy. The most vigorous plant I've had.

She's doing good this week.

The week went well, the plants are growing nicely. Everyone has started to develop properly, just a slight calcium deficiency on the Green Poison on the top right, otherwise I intervene as little as possible since everything seems to be going smoothly. Bit of pintch on the top off some on.

Hello everyone 🤩 she grew fast and with a beautiful green colour on the leaves! She has responded superbly to low stress training and topping & i defoliated her aswell and seems didn't even notice 😎 For the nutrient half grow half bloom and power buds 1ml/L Spider Farme SE7000 70% Wish you all a good day and happy growing 😎

Brothers and sisters farmers. My job here is over! Growth was rather difficult because of the heat, but I believe that this strain is the only one who perhaps kept more than all the others, rediscovering to give me the solid nuggets! Greetings to all of you, fantastic Weed friends Happy and abundant harvesters

9/11/24 sadly the sun isnt hitting these girls as much as i wish. theyve got a decent smell and some decent trichome coverage for only being the begining of week 4. hopefully they chunk up and arent too far behind because of the lack of sun/ light penetration. ive had half a mind to move them indoors to finish

The game is starting now, gonna have to ScrOG them during the week. Indoor, the problem is the ceiling, if you want big buds you must grow big plants (big roots to be exact) , but you can’t grow big plants with no control on the canopy otherwise you will finish into the lights by cooking the buds 😄 Plants are starting to drink differents amounts of water from one to another, gonna try to make 2 differents groups for the watering/feedings, I don’t want to be trapped as a watering slave every day by watering a plant or two.... I’m asking myself if it is really useful to put all these comments and explanations. Does it really help someone ? I’m thinking about just putting my notes , just the kind of stuff that I don’t want to keep in mind as it is useless like the watering, feeding days with the names of the plants .... and lucky will be the one who will be able to understand how to become a proper Craft Master Grower ...with all the secrets and knowledge that brings to the sweetest dank candy farming... 😊 [Day 44] Water 💦 G13 Ams L Vanilla HP x 2 Water + RootBooster + AllZymes Chitral [Day 46] Water + RootBooster + AllZymes + Earth Grow Mix Acapulco Bad Azz Tangerine J.H BBG TH , SS Remo P.S: I’m looking for a job in the Cannabis industry as Master Grower, Mineralogist, Quality Control 🐞 This diary is updated daily ☝️
