Welcome to week 1 of my CBD Medi Kush Diary! I have 2 - CBD Medi Kush by Spliff Seeds going in the same tent with 14 other plants (full details on all of the other plants can be found on my "Dude's New Diary to Rule Them All" diary, check it out). But with the CBD Medi Kush I'm also growing 3 - DinaMed CBD+ by DinaFem, 1 - Critical+ by DinaFem, 3 - Cream & Cheese CBD by Seedsman and 7 - Cherry Blossom CBD Hemp by Elevator Supply Co. The 2 CBD Medi Kush plants and 2 of the DinaMed CBD+'s were all started from seed at the same time (all other plants are clones). Once all surviving clones/seedlings were healthy enough I transplanted from dixie cups to small pots (I guess around 1 litre). They were transplanted into soil I had been composting and turning for 3-4 weeks. They really responded well to the transplanting and the new soil. Noticeable growth in 48 hours. The pictures in week 1 were taken right after transplanting (check week 2 and you will see a very noticeable change all around). My plan this grow is to go organic (or as organic as possible). While the soil was composting I added old fan leaves to the mix as well as Recharge, Mr B's Green Trees 'Growth', and Jobe's Organic granular fertilizer. I know, I know, everyone says don't use time release nutes with cannabis. BUT, The Rev said it was fine in his "True Living Organics" book. He actually recommends putting spikes in the flowering pots prior to transplant (I'm planning on trying that too). Recharge and Mr B's Green Trees don't claim to be organic specifically for whatever reason, but the ingredients include pretty much everything The Rev recommends adding to composting soil. Plus I love Recharge, that stuff is great! Organic or not I'll be using Recharge along the way. Here's the setup... First of all, I'll let you know my grow area is in my attic. The previous owners finished the attic with walls lights and even carpeting, but for some reason kept the folding attic stairs. Its pretty a pretty good space, we divide the attic in half. One side for my plants, they other for attic type storage. I have 2 2x4 tents and a larger flowering area (10x12'ish). One of the tents I use for drying only, the other is where I have these babies growing. The babies are currently under a single Viparspectra V300 300W LED. I'm having really good results with Viparspectra LED's. Bang for the buck, Viparspectra is hard to beat. I have a 2nd 300W Viparspectra which is a R300 (more reds) which is better for flowering. I may stick the R300 in the tent as well at some point, but for now the single V300 is doing a great job. In the flowering area I'm running 1000W HPS. The HPS has been kicking ass with the plants in flower now and I'm expecting more of the same with these girls when they are ready for the big time. Side note: I'm running a separate diary for all of these girls. In this diary I'm just going to focus on the CBD Medi Kush specifically. But I did start the CBD Medi Kush and DinaMed CBD+ seeds at exactly the same time. So, in the other diary I will do some comparisons and contrasts between the 2 strains as they grow. So far the DinaMed is taller, but the CBD Medi Kush has beautifully stacked node structure. This looks like its going to be a win-win. Please follow and comment away!!! Any tips/tricks regarding organic gardening would be appreciated! 👍

* Watering 2l every 3 days * Always tuck in the leaves to expose lower tops * Check the trichomes for amber

Will update with final weights once known, but she’s a big girl. Dense buds and great structure though! She taught me a lot this one and we have had great fun! Was definitely worth giving her the long veg

These gals are in flower. Each about 2 ft tall. Milky way still shows nutrient issues but is doing OK. I scrooge Medusa with a peony cage and took off some leaves. She is very branchy but against my normal process, I won't take off the inner branches.

********* Week 12 - February 24 to March 1, 2020 (Days 78 to 84 from seed coming out of medium) Well this is not the update I was expecting to provide! She did go into darkness on Sunday night and came out on Tuesday evening. Everything was ready and did the final video and pictures. When scanning the pictures though there were still a lot of clean trichomes!!😩😪 So made the decision to keep her going for another week and back into the flower tent and fed her some sweetener again😀😀 If I had another seed of her I would have stayed committed for comparison but I didn't want to pull this one too early and will ride it out. For the most part then the week was really just about keeping her in a dark part of the tent and gave the medium a couple of feedings. She has responded well to this extra time and when reviewed on Saturday she had become more frosty and the trichomes finally went all cloudy. There are more amber in her now as a result of waiting but the trade off was that more now became cloudy than became amber👍👍 Next update will be a harvest!! Green Poison has been wonderful to help along as she has aged. She has many stems with a lot of bud sites that have filled out. Her smells have been more earthy and floral and I am excited to see how they change as she cures. Three week flush👍😁😁 Thanks for the opportunity Sweet Seeds! Again, not much to add as this was simply a week of letting her ripen, keep environment cool & dry, and not worry about nutrient issues😀 Little more detail: Feb 24/20 - Day 78 - In the dark today Feb 25/20 - Day 79 - back into Flower tent.....she is not ready for harvest yet. Feb 26/20 - Day 80 - 3L water with Rezin & Liquid Weight @ 1.5ml/L = 80ppm and 6.1pH - Some of her hairs have turned a dark red. They are drying and not much can be done. Feb 27/20 - Day 81 - Nothing today Feb 28/20 - Day 82 - 2L plain water. No additives and didn't pH. Feb 29/20 - Day 83 - nothing today - take down tomorrow. Mar 1/20 - Day 84 - harvest day so leaving her alone and drying in the pot a bit. Thanks for checking out my run of Green Poison Growmies!!!! If you get a chance to grow her........she will make you smile😁😎🙏

Purple shine a bien repris son développement, niveau racines il va être temps de la rempoter une bonne masse racinaire commence à sortir du air pot. Le 25/04 seconde taille des branches principales, de 2 apex cela va passer à quatre😉, apport de solution nutritive pour réduire le stress de la taille(terragrow 1,5ml, katanaroot 0,2ml, silicon 1ml, calmag 0,5ml). Maintenant repos pour cette demoiselle avant la prochaine taille😉 Purple shine semble reprendre assez vite sa végétation après une taille. Ses branches sont bien épaisse ajout de silice et a participé.

it's always a pleasure to do business with Barney's Farm!!! They have never let me down even once!! Even in the worst situations and conditions they have always been able to bring out the best for me!! I really enjoyed forcing these plants to see their reactions, but I wouldn't do it again as a technique because it only serves to keep the canopy low but not to increase the yields...or...at least in my case I didn't find it of fundamental importance....maybe a simple cut of the apical top and that was it! but that's fine!😋

Everything coming along nicely. I’ve discontinued all nutes but will give one more little top dressing to the cheese plant tomorrow then that’s it. Just straight stabilized RO water from here out. The slurricane is just packing on PM like crazy. The cheese has actually stopped the spread for the most part. At harvest I’m going to wash the shit out of the slurricane and cheese with some warm RO water and some h202 to get the majority of it dissolved. Other than that the quality of the slurricane is beyond ridiculous. It’s by far the stickiest strain to the touch in the tent. It’s probably winning for smell too. It’s straight gassy licorice pine. The pm susceptibility is a deal breaking drawback though. The cheese is looking good and smells great. It almost smells like rotten milk. Some of the nugs are really filling out into these nice long chunky little things. The pistils are turning a light orange/pink color too. Unfortunately it’s not maturing at the same rate and will make everything in the tent go for another 1.5-2 weeks. Garlics are looking better. The lanky pheno has filled out quite a bit more than expected and is super frosty with a great smell. It’s finally starting to purple up a bit. I think it will still be quite leafy around harvest but time will tell. Pheno 2 has better structure and density but lacks frost, smell and color. Not very impressed by it honestly. The zkittlez is looking great and getting super frosty. Especially around the crowns of the top colas. Lowers look like shit though. Despite being somewhat leafy, the main branches look quite dense. It’s probably the shortest and bushiest plant in the garden. It’s yellowing out quite a bit now and will probably finish with the blackberries and slurricane. The blackberries look amazing and smell even better. One of the phenos is a crazy producer and creates massive buds with musky berry terps. The other pheno is a beautiful purple strain that produces a crazy amount of frost and chunky golf ball nugs at the expense of large yield. It’s smell is very sweet and candy like and has been a very low feeding and maintenance plant. Slurricane #4 looks great aside from its infection. It definitely wins for resin content and smell but looks like a low yielder.

I have a lot of vertical space and little horizontal space, that's why I'm not using networks. Only a central 8 mm iron stake, in the absence of a net, to prevent the weight of the buds from bending the side branches, I am tying them to the central stake with ropes made of “t-shirt rags” (they have just the right elasticity and do not hurt the plants, and I have many old t-shirts, haha). It is an economical and simple, but effective solution. Likewise, for those who do not have horizontal space problems, I recommend using networks! Glueberry OG I'm going to cut it next week (before the rains announced for Monday the 24th. Greetings!

🌸 Week 3 Flower – Growing Strong, Tall, and Vibrant! 🌱 Hey Grow Fam! It’s already Week 3 in flower, and I’m thrilled to bring you this update because these plants are doing phenomenally well! Some are stretching up so tall that I might have to get creative in the coming weeks! Fruit production is well underway, and it’s absolutely amazing to watch the canopy fill out as these girls reach their potential. Aptus Holland Pack Unboxing & New Additions This week kicked off with a big arrival: the Aptus Holland nutrient pack! 🙌 I couldn’t wait to share the unboxing with you all; there’s a video up where I go through all the goodies, so check it out if you haven’t yet! Between the photos and videos, you’ll be able to see just how well these nutrients are already feeding these green beauties. Having a blast sharing more content lately—I’m in the zone with editing and creating, so get ready for even more shares! 🌡️ Environmental Control and Fine-Tuning the Reservoir pH Temps this week have been holding around 27.2°C with RH at 65.2% and CO2 at 800 ppm, creating a VPD of 1.26 for ideal flower development. The lighting intensity is at 833 PPFD, and the solution in the reservoir is fine-tuned to a pH of 6.22, EC of 475, with a temp of 21.8°C. Let’s talk pH in the reservoir: it’s a dynamic process, and I’m constantly adjusting it to keep everything at the right level. The pH tends to rise throughout the week, and each day, I work it back down, fine-tuning it to keep those plants happy and balanced. Managing pH is truly a hands-on job, and it’s worth every moment. I love staying on top of it for optimal nutrient uptake—it’s all about consistent effort and keeping that perfect range dialed in. Leaf Maintenance & Selective Defoliation These leaves are HUGE and gorgeous, creating a lush canopy that’s nearly too perfect! I’ve been taking a few leaves here and there, focusing on leaves that may be blocking light from reaching lower parts of the plant. Selective defoliation at this stage is key because it opens up airflow and allows light to penetrate deep, boosting energy distribution across the whole plant. Big, healthy leaves mean we’re getting excellent photosynthesis, but a gentle, strategic defoliation can guide that energy toward those developing buds. Leaf removal is all about balance, giving the plant space to breathe and thrive while still maximizing growth in flower! 🌐 TrolMaster + App – Real-Time Precision Huge shoutout to the TrolMaster system and the app—keeping everything in sync and at peak performance is honestly effortless with this ecosystem. The app provides a full overview of each environmental parameter, allowing me to make real-time adjustments as needed and track trends over time. The precision here is unbeatable, giving me complete control over temps, humidity, CO2, and VPD, ensuring my girls are in a controlled paradise 24/7. What I love most is how the app records everything automatically, so I always know exactly where things stand without having to keep separate records. If you haven’t tried TrolMaster yet, it’s a total game-changer for any grow setup! 💥 Shoutouts & Gratitude Massive shoutout to TrolMaster and Aptus Holland for powering this grow with tech and nutrition that’s second to none. And, of course, gratitude to Pro-Mix for the superb growing medium and to the seed banks behind the genetics. We’re running strong thanks to each of you. And to the whole community—thank you, everyone, from new friends to seasoned followers, lovers to haters. Your energy, whatever form it comes in, is all part of this journey, and I’m so grateful for it all. Special shoutout this week to my brother Daggadna—head over to IG and give him a follow!

Week 14! I am starting to get really excited about this plant! She is plumping up and producing a lot of trichomes! Smell is very enjoyable. Fruity, sweet and lemony are smells that come to mind. Doing minor defoliation if I see leaves shading buds.

Mar 5 Watered fully for the first time last Friday. The plant is feeling light again today, Tuesday, so I'm going to water less than a gallon. I'm starting to LST to try and keep an even canopy. Looking good so far.
