- Heavy defoliation to canopy twice this week, got rid of all large fan leaves to send energy to buds - Light defoliation every other day Plants are profiled nicely, many buds throughout now. Some of the hairs on the Lemon Ice buds are starting to turn orange. Adding the dehumidifier and extra 6" fan seems to have solved the humidity issue. Plants drank a lot of water this week, I will monitor more closely next week and add some water throughout to help keep pH balanced. The stem I folded over last week seems to have recovered fine and is now laying horizontal across trellis, accidental super cropping.

Girls are developing well, i have a minor issue but is making me uncomfortable, a bug for the third time something that by research seams to be a lace bug, basically is like little drops of black oil in the leafs this develops in to a little static larvae then it becomes black, is tiny. And apparently does nothing on the surface to the plant, but man this bastards are imortal, I’m in the point of dropping a nuke or using a flame tower in the grow room. I’m deep in to flower... Besides that fir the third time, all good...

The time is finally here to post the harvest. I waited till it was all done and dry before updating the dairy so will add in the dry weights next on the 2nd half of the harvest entry. Had some ups and downs with this plant. mainly the extreme yellowing that was happening. I should have treated this faster with a flush but was super reluctant and I feel this has suffered in the end. The top best looking buds could have been larger and the lower ones could have been thicker. There is some smells with this plant but they are not pronounced. Just smells like mild basic weed, this would be one reason not to grow it, however, the crystals on this plant have been the most I've ever grown before. When trimming them every time the scissors snipped or the brush stroked I saw some falling down onto the tray. This plant would be great for making hash. had a good little ball of finger hash at the end of it and will be giving that to my friends to smoke or make a strong edible with. I don't plan on growing this strain out again, the lack of smells and the fact I'm only trying to grow cbd dominate plants is the main reason. If my friends really like this I have some clones so can always give them some. Speaking of clones they are doing well outside, greened up a lot and showing signs of revegging. Took some photos of the weed hang drying on day 1 in the tent and a week later to show how much they shrink. most of the lower growth is quite larfy but will make good edibles or hash, that will be a fun project to do and may include that in my projects diary. That's about all I can think of if you have any questions just ask. m0use Disclaimers: 1. I have divided the total watts of light in half, 300w(150w) for this diary. It will accurately reflect the g/w ratio as the two plants growing in this tent are listed in two separate diaries. 2. I include any shake/trim in my gross totals as I use them to make edibles. 3. I did not follow any proper ways of listing my nutrients. Some are ml/l of total solution watered, others ml/l of total medium and some are just the total amounts I added, not as a ratio.

I converted the cents into dollar amounts beforehand to avoid dividing by 100. 8.2c/h = 0.082$/h 438h * 0.17c/kwh = $74.46kw * 0.15kw = $11.17 on peak 522h * 0.113c/kwh = $58.99kw *0.15kw = $8.85 mid peak 1,272h * 0.082c/kwh = $104.30kw *0.15kw = $15.65 off peak The "h" hours and "kw" kilowatts cancel out and we are left with a value of $ dollars per peak period, add all the peak periods up and you get your total cost of running the lights in dollars. $11.17 + $8.85 + $15.65 = $35.67 for the grow light only. My light grew for 20 weeks and 4 days, or 144 days. almost 21 weeks total. $35.67 / 144d = 0.2477$/d average of about 25c a day in electricity 337.2kw for the entire grow. Using the regular calculation of grams harvested divided by watts used is not accurate to me, it does not account for all the time the lamps are on, the length of grow to the over all cost. The calculation that makes sense to me is this, harvested dry weight of usable cannabis buds/trim/keif/whatever in grams divided by total kw used. Could also combine it with grams per total single use costs “anything you used only for this grow and wont reuse in the next, or fractions of multi use items like fertilizers if they ½ full” and see how much you’re investing per gram. "kw" ÷ "g" = kw/g "$" ÷ "g" = $/g I have harvested 5.34oz or 151.6g on 337.2kw. 337.2kw ÷151.6g = 2.22 kw/g of usable cannabis. This is not an ideal ratio for me and looks like a lot of energy waste happened from the extended veg period. $35.67 ÷ 151.6g = 0.24c/g It cost 24c/g when comparing total electricity cost to gross yield, almost identical to the comparison of total electrical cost to the number of days in the grow 25c/day. Neat! legend, kwh = kilowatt per hour kw = kilowatt w = watt h = hour c = cents $ = dollars d = day LED= Light Emitting Diode

Jungle is growing on top of my washing machine! On the last day of week 6 I lowered lights to 35cm from canopy, this week I’m going to monitor that number and adjust as necessary because the plant is still in stretching + bud setting phase. I’m feeding with high N+mag and I’ll continue until growth slows down, than I’ll switch to megacrop 2parts. I expect that to happen end of this week, 10 days max. Day 42 - changed the fan Day 44 - finally installed the blumat auto irrigation system. It wasn’t that easy since branches are really near the substrate but at least I had the carrot already placed so I was able to do it. High frequency fertigation on coco is a must, you can’t take advantage on coco great qualities watering 1 or 2 times a day. My system has 5 drippers placed in a Pac-Man shape, more or less. Day 45 - This is an important day since it marks the halfway point of this crop, based on my previous results. Coincidentally I’ve also spotted few small trichomes on a leaf, I guess the plant is now ready to build up mass and flavors. I did a minor defoliation to open up the inner canopy and to get rid of some plant’s nitrogen reserve. I prepared 20L of my bloom solution and mixed that with the veg solution in the reservoir. For a week I’m going to use this transitional feeding. Lots of sulfur, seems to be on a volcano 🤣 Day 46 - spotted a minor P deficiency. There is probably too much calcium in my solution that is antagonizing P absorption. I mixed another batch, this is the ppm breakdown N 100 P 100 K 280 Mg 85 Ca 150 Before I had P 40 and Ca ~190, my tap water has 80ppm of Ca that is already counted it. I’ll keep this value for a couple of weeks than I’ll lower everything except K. (Edit from the future - K is too high) Day 47 - plant looks happy and bigger, it drunk 3+ liters yesterday. There is no need for humidifier anymore so I’m getting rid of it. Temperature is 30-32C with 50-60% humidity. Day 48 - buds are swelling, some branches are already showing the spiral structure. Plant drunk 5 liters yesterday, impressive.

Glookie Bomb did great from Bomb seeds. Very sweet earthy smell. Lots of frosty goodness. I cut her, and will be hanging for 24 hours. Then I will trim fan leaves off, and put her in the cannatrol for 8 days. Once done I will do a final trim, and be back with smoke report. She grew great with the Spider Farmer SE5000, and in the Athena blended line of nutrition. Thank you Bomb seeds 💣, Spider Farmer 💡, and Athena nutrition. 🤜🤛🌱🌱🌱 Thank you grow diaries community for the 👇likes👇, follows, comments, and subscriptions on my YouTube channel👇. ❄️🌱🍻 Happy Growing 🌱🌱🌱 https://youtube.com/channel/UCAhN7yRzWLpcaRHhMIQ7X4g

The transition is officially happening—the plant has now fully entered the flowering phase!🌱 The stretch is kicking in, and it’s growing rapidly, really taking off this week. It looks incredibly healthy, with vibrant green leaves and strong development. Thanks to the LST, it has spread out beautifully, allowing for even light distribution and great bud site exposure. I’m really happy with how things are progressing and excited to see how the buds start forming in the coming weeks! This one is looking very promising.💪😎

This week flushing the wedding cake i thought that was the problem was an excess of nutrients, but instead the water was quite clean, around 1100ppm at the first drain, after several flushes water is now on 600ppm.. It seems that the others are starting to have the same deficiency that hit wedding # 2 .. now I'm treating them with 0.5ml of cal-mag adding it to the other nutrients for once a week (except wedding # 2) I will wait for the soil to dry out, to give her only clean water since the final harvest is not long. ⚠️ UPDATE DAY 45 ⚠️ Yesterday flush for dos si dos and today flush for (wedding cake 1) they are having a nutrient lockout too..😪 The (wedding cake 1) is clearly healthier than her sister (wedding cake 2) by looking at her color, but unfortunately she had excessive PPM / EC too.. So i did the same procedure by using only tap water, but this time added only 0,5ml of cal-mag. Water was at 6.5 ph until I got a better runoff, it went from 5.7 to 6.0 PH and from 1800 to 700-600ppm 😬 I have never thought of overdoing nutrients so much.. I will certainly learn a lot from these mistakes 🙌🏻

Hello everyone 🙂 Here we are finally with the Harwest report of this fantastic variety🍪                                  COOKIES KUSH from Barney's Farm..                                                   GIRL SCOUT COOKIES ×ROLLEX OG KUSH..                                                  I love this hybrid , from seed to flower, so I will try to be as partial and honest as possible, although I have very little negative to say, maybe nothing..                               But let's we started..                                 Initially I germinated three seeds, all three born after two days at a constant temperature around 24 °, placed inside two pieces of wet paper, in turn closed between two coffee saucers..                                              I was unable to post the first two weeks because I was on vacation by the sea, finding the best canarian cannabis social club, while they were growing up😎: 1:                            Towards the end of the third week the show started🎬..                                             A massive attack of thrips led me to have to use neem oil to try to counter these little ones. bastards🙄.                                              The oil was sprayed on the leaves using a pump sprayer..                                First though mixed it with about 1/5 of potassium soap, as I have always found written to do..                        As you can see in the first photos📷 the plant (and also her two sister in diari "COOKIES×KUSH") has undergone enormous stress making the leaves as if they had been bitten by some animal..                             But the fault was all of neem oil or the wrong mix🤷‍♂️                 Trying to inform me here and there, I did not find much specific information, but I really believe that the plant has undergone a phytotoxic effect as a reaction following the use of the neem oil..                                                     The despair was great, but I tried to remain calm and understand what had happened in the hope that the effect would not extend going to compromise the health of the plant💆‍♂️🧘‍♂️..                                     After a couple of weeks in the Flowering cycle, this great Cookies pheno recovered great and as if nothing had tripled in size, maintaining a beautiful main top with vigor branches full of dense buds all around..                                               In the first week of flowering I cut the first two branches, focusing the energies on the upper ones.. After a few days I made a super Cropping on the central top, always trying to increase the vigor of the branches below💪🌲..          And the plant has always reacted very well, as if nothing had happened..                                          I also thought of defoliating, but then I left the idea to not stress it further..                                               In carrying out the final transplant I placed mycorrize in the ground, directly in contact with the roots..                                            In the first week of flowering I gave again once a bit of fish mix to facilitate the stretch phase..                                            Later during the flowering I used the slow release organic powder of the Greenhouse, plus twice the Biobloom fertilizer from Biobizz..I increased everything with biomass biomass , once / twice, more enchancers once through irrigation (always greenhouse), more than molasses..                                           I also gave some banana macerate made by me, but honestly I don't know if it influenced or not exactly, but I don't think bad did it..            Flowering was very quiet and without too many complications, if not some insect that I tried to fight using yellow and blue traps..                  After 55 days from the transition to 12/12 I could have safely cut, but I decided to wait a ten more days, up to 65 °..                               Towards the end of flowering, this beautiful girl had fantastic colors..                                              The yellow of most of the leaves, due to the discharge of nutrients, contrasted very well with the purple color that had taken on the other leaves and in small part also the flowers..                             Unfortunately in the photo does not give a good idea of ​​how beautiful it was..                               The plant, as I usually do, was cut entirely and placed upside down in a wooden wardrobe controlled temperature and humidity, without becoming too crazy, always trying to maintain a balance..                                        More or less I always dried around 21/24 ° with a ur around 55/60%..                                        After about 7 days, when the outer leaves were dry enough to the touch, but not to crumble, I cut the branches to one by one keeping the flowers attached..                                            I then performed a manicure in a best  art-way possible..                                         Nice, slow hands trimming..buds to buds..                                                                               Afterwards I put the branches with the flowers on a net for about a day and a half..                                 When I heard that the Popcorn Buds came off without leaving "the thread", I cut all the flowers from the branches and I have them stored inside a brown paper bag..                                                       I left them inside for about two days until the flowers were almost completely dry as I wanted, always being careful not to let them dry out too much.. This phase is very delicate so you need to check the condition of the flowers several times a day.. Once ready I put them inside an airtight jar..                                    For 24 hours I didn't open, letting the humidity present in the flowers come out making them still slightly wet..                           After a day, I found that the flowers had moistened to the touch, but not in an excessive way, just as I wanted..                                           From this moment on, I ap straight up the pot about three / four times a day at a distance of about 6h (always without getting too mad)..                                            For the first week I did so, then going to decrease the openings in the following two weeks..                                  After three weeks the perfume is came to be created in a clear, sweet and pungent way..                                                                               The first few weeks of opening the jar, for those who may not know it, it is normal to feel a fragrance of almost wet hay, which leads you to believe that you have made mistakes going to eliminate those incredible aromatic notes present during flowering..but not it is so..                                                               The cure process, if well carried out, leads to reducing from time to time that unpleasant smell of hay until it transforms into that complex bouquet of terpenes that are cannabis can give..                                                                    It is fantastic to observe the transformation in the terpene profile during this phase♥️🤩..                                    I think it is a highlight, where patience and attention play a fundamental role in being able to obtain a high quality product, from connoisseur..  Just my opinion🤗                             Cannabis, if well tanned, maintains and intensifies its aroma and potency in the coming months📆..                                            The flowers burn slowly and steadily inside lla map releasing intense aromas💐..                            The smoke inhaling it remains soft and velvety without creating throat disorders..                                 I believe this phase is fundamental to be able to enjoy a unique product with organoleptic characteristics which it is difficult not to fall in love with👌..                                            In the case of this variety, specifically of this pheno, the aroma is undoubtedly mint, mint mint with some sweet earthy notes..                                              Very complex..                                 The taste in smoke is more tending to earth, but very sweet and delicate with other notes that I can't to recognize, complex to describe, but mint is not very present as in the perfume (after 40 days of care)..                    Basically you are faced with a kush 2.0 , very very good and powerful..                                           A must have for kush lover's👌🏆..         As you can see in the video, the grass burns very well going to fill the map with oil..                             The joint in question is obviously a pure without tobacco, rolled with organic papers and organic filter. If well cared for it gives off scents that potentially can hear hundreds of meters, so be careful you have neighbors (Ps, mine are the ones that nobody would like)..    I do a smoke test only to evaluate if the treatment process has been successful, otherwise in my days I usually use vaporizers ( mighty / ghostmv1 / dynavap m / vulcano sometimes )..                                  Thanks very much to those who created them🙏🙏🙏🔝🔝..                                         Anyway                                                In the test carried out with mighty (from 177 ° to 195 °) the aroma is pungent, much more than in smoke..                                      Excellent Kush flavor, sweet enough but with earthy and spicy notes..                                       Complex to describe and I would not add anything else to try to be as honest as possible..                             Regarding the effect, I won't go too far..                                              In general it is a herb that acts on the body, leaving the mind calm and able to do anything (at least for me)..                                             As a good Kush that respects itself..                                                   It is not not at all mentally invasive..                                   Wanting to be honest though, most of my friends (all daily smokers, around 30) are overwhelmed by this variety because it relaxes them too much..                                                 I personally find myself to be god and I could use it in every moment of the day, also before intense physical activity.. something that does not always happen with sativa..                       Just for this subject🤯.                                               In this way I cut the plant when the trichomes were roughly 10% amber and the remaining milk color..                                                   It was a great experience to see this girl grow up..                                                      Her strength and endurance were impressive and maybe I was lucky to have the problem of neem oil with her, because she endured great, allowing me to learn without compromising too much the final result..another plant would probably die..                                                      I thank everyone who read the diary over the various weeks..                                               And thanks Grow Diaries for creating this community and connecting with it🙏🙏👌👌..                                                        For more and more precise info I refer you to watch every single week where I tried to post everything as precisely as possible..                                             I hope you had Fun..          Remember to make some ClouDs☁️        And to the next story diary 😉🌱..                     Thanks for the support🙏💚 Bye ✌️ Ps. The final weight of the flowers is calculated with only the main buds, dried, cleaned from each leaflet and finally cured for more than a month. The 205w light must be divided by three (she is the one who has used the least amount seen the position in the grow) Hope you enjoy Happy growing As always, hope English will good
