Jan 25th - both photos are from last nite (24th) Water and Nutrients are now Max’d and will be for the next 3 feeds before tapering off towards a flush, end of week 9 - pics tonight of the skinny-assed Sativa leaves in and around the plants crown. -reined-in some of the taller branches by affixing them back onto the fabric pot. Pulling them down slightly. Jan 26, - raised the lights a couple of inches. Trying to keep top-leaf temps under the Room temp by at least a degree ~ 1.5 avg -seems that the blossoms have responded to all the food and water. Sticky Buds for the 1st-time and a Strong (beautiful) smell I cannot get my head around yet. Funky Citrus for sure. - R.H. dropped again ~ 50% - 3 tablespoons Molasses added for tonight’s feast. day 5 since last nutes *** just an observation; I’m either just at the right time in Flower, (week 6 of 11-13) or increasing the Ocean Magic content 3x has HAD a huge impact on the Bud development & Terpene population. There are Crystals galore on the sugar leaves and bud surfaces. 2ml/L on their Bottles product Label vs 8ml/L on the G.P. Nutrition Calculator, are each company recommendations on how to use the product... ? ! I’ve made the move to 8ml/L in the last 3 feeds. 30th Jan - big growth in the actual blossoms and hairs. The Left plant has flowers that have begun to wrap around the branches and join the other buds above and below. The stretch in the L plant had drastically slowed and the R plant is catching-up nicely ~ 7-10 days behind. 31st - top dressing the pot(s) tonight, ahead of their next feed. Quite a “settling” of the top surface since the first waterings. And now that they are getting some serious water (usually over a 3-4 hour period) there is room for ~ 2” soil, and another inch of Sand. Everything else has been Max’d, might as well include the playground !! - retained some of the original potting mixture, minus perlite & shrimp compost... that goes on tonight, 31st. ** ha, should be fun with all of the Stakes in the soil... focus, pic to follow Feb 1 - 16 Litre feeding tonight, to send the Ladies into the 2nd half of Flower. Planning & Maintenance is all I am thinking is left to do. Between the lines till 2nd week March ... -will try and get an image tonight showing the terpene explosion and changes happening on the plants - small increase in Molasses took TDS to 1370. No higher from here on in.

Temperature, humidity, and soil are the average for the week. These get well water and it's about 50° and 7.2-7.6 ph. They're fastbuds and they can handle it. I added 20ml coop poop, 20ml Jobe's, and 15ml blood meal as a top dressing on day 1 this Week. I only added a pinch near the stem. The remainder was spread evenly in a circle to the outer edge of soil. The listed dry fertilizers above are measure in ml/gallon of soil. Plant 2 succumbed to root rot on day 4. These started off with lots of rain and overcast days. That combined with cool nights was more than she could handle. I'll attempt a rehab by dropping her in a perlite filled cloner. Day 4 and overnight they got thunderstorms drizzle and rain. I included the hourly forecast. Plant 1 handled the harsh conditions nature threw at her. She hasn't added a lot of height and is growing slower than the Tropicana Cookies. The 38° F nights the last two days of this week brought out a little color in the center and might be the reason this one's growing slower. I watered on day 1, 3, then they got all that rain day 4, that night, early day 5 and water with 8ml biomin iron per gallon mix on day 7. So far so good.

Hey fellow gardeners, Unfortunately, I couldn't complete this diary earlier because was busy with family stuff and work. So finally here we go with the last chapter of this wonderful grow session. Thanks for Barneys for another masterpiece, we had a truly unforgettable journey with this breed. Its a bit difficult to remember after so long time but we try to collect the most important feelings and thoughts.🌞 So i decided to choose this time a hybrid strain to complement our most sativa collection. The seeds germinated in no time and we were able to put them in the first small pot after only 3 days, after another 3 days except one, they emerged from the soil so the fun could begin. The vegetative phase was actually easy and vigorous, but we made a mistake that made it a little longer than planned. Luckily the broken main stem healed really fast so this extra week wasn't so bad. In this phase we had an experience that we never had before, and yes this was the 13 finger leaf which means that the plants seem doing very well.🌱😎 When we entered the flowering period I was afraid they wouldn't stretch enough as other growers reported. Luckily these ladies got lanky and even didn't want to stop the stretching, which was cause for concern because the time for the last defoliation and lollypop session was almost there. At around day 23 of flowering we made the last trainings and we finally could sit back and watch the magic happen. It was really touching and lovely to see how the colors and aromas change from week to week as autumn approaches. Basically, we could distinguish two phenotypes. One with the purple silk on the leaves and a smaller but rock hard bud structure. The smell of this lady was more pine and sweet at the same time. The other 3 ladies were pretty much the same when it comes to smell and bud structure. Sweet and fruity aromas were characteristic here. Apart from the previous ones, both phenotypes were characterized by cinnamon scent throughout the whole flowering period. It can definitely be said that it is the most frosty variety i have ever grown. I am really satisfied with the outcome in every aspects. First the purple pheno went to darkness with our DWC lady and after two days the other 3. Dried them for 7 days at 21 degrees and 60% humidity and for another 5 days at 50% humidity.⚔️ Trimming these variety was a bit challenging threw the closed bud structure but it wort all the time. We ended up with 368 grams of juicy, rock hard dried buds and 48 grams of larf and popcorn. After placed it into glass jars with Boveda 62% humidity pack. Was a very pleasant strain to grow. I would like to thank everyone who has had a look, liked or commented on this diary. Hope its been helpful in some way. Cant wait for the next journey which will start hopefully at the end of august. Stay safe Growmies and have a lovely week!💚

Bienvenidos a la semana #5 Inicia la floración a tope! 😀 😑 🙏 😂 Día 32 (12/06) Las plantas se muestran sedientas.- CC, RB, OF1 = 250 ml H2O pH ajustado con Biogrow, Biobloom y Top Max- NL =  500 ml H2O pH ajustado con Biogrow, Biobloom y Top Max ¡Pasan la noche en indoor por la amenaza de lluvias! Día 33 (13/06) No ha hecho demasiado calor pero se muestran muy sedientas! (excepto OF1)Duplicamos el riego y vigilamos- CC, RB = 500 ml H2O pH ajustado- NL =  1 litro H2O pH ajustado Pasan mitad de día en exterior y mitad de día en interior por lluvias torrenciales Día 34 (14/06) Ajustes de LST, pero se nota que las plantas ya están en floración, porque los tallos y ramas son mucho más duros (menos flexibles) Ya ha salido el sol y parece que vamos a tener muchos días soleados por delante!    😀 Día 35 (15/06) Riego- CC, RB = 500 ml H2O pH ajustado con Bio-Grow - NL = 1 litro H2O pH ajustado Día 36 (16/06) Se detecta un par de orugas verdes en CC y NL y se eliminanSe hace aplicación foliar de aceite de neem y jabón potásico a todas las plantas Hago lolippoping en las ramas más bajas de las OF1. Ya son bastante pequeñas, así que dediquen su energía a las ramas principales...  Día 37 (17/06) Es impresionante el vigor que muestran Crystal Candy XL y Royal Bluematic. Crecen varios centímetros al día  😀 Los colores entre morado y púrpura casi negro de la Crystal Candy son espectaculares! 😀 Northern Lights se ha quedado más pequeña, y de las Orion F1 me esperaba algo más... 😑 Veremos si los próximos días ambas strains me dan Una sorpresa y se estiran. Inspirado en @deFharo, hago mulching con corteza de pino para evitar la evaporación por las altas temperaturas que tengo en la terraza.  Humedezco la parte superior del sustrato con spray y hago un riego con agua pH ajustado con Bio-Grow, BioBloom y Top Max en las siguientes cantidades:CC, OF1 y RB = 250 mlNL = 500 ml Gracias por leerme y buenos humos! 😀

Semana 1 (18/7/22 - 24/7/22) Se preparo una solucion de Mills Start R: - PPM : 100 -pH : 5.8 Se submergio cubos de roca de lana dentro de la soulcion. Cada semilla que se germinara se paso a un cubo de roca de lana y se mantuvo sin luz. Cuando las plantulas salian del cubo, se pasaron a otra bandeja de germinacion con domo de humedad bajo una luz T5.

Time to try out some new strains This time we have Purple Lemonade from FastBuds! Started off with 24 hours in a glass of water then into a paper towel,then once the taproot was about half an inch I transferred her into a coco pellet. Once she’s broken the soil it’ll be into the tent. Day 3 Looks like it’s time to up pot her and get her under the light.

The plant on the right got chopped down the hairs were 90% dark brown while left was fully white last week when it got taken down it had only one day flush. This plant I will flush for a week and see which is better. It has decent size buds all the way to the bottom but this one growing still doesn't have as many crystals as the harvested plant which was definitely cut down way to early 😕 shame it must have forced to finish early from shock when I snapped a main branch clean off. This plant I will flush with plain filtered water for 7 days and even if it doesn't have as much crystals as the other plant, the bud size is 2x-3x the size of the plant that was cut down last week so I hope they will look a lot better size wise after they shrink when they are cut down and dried. I have also noticed some medium sized fan leads turning from green into a beautiful dark purple colour over the last 2-3 days slowly and it's spreading to other leaves the buds on this plant are also purple bits it's hard to see on here but looking sweet so far I have uploaded pic of the frost one which has been drying for a week now

It took two ... 2 full hours to repot all 7 plants. I used an entire bag of Fox Farm Ocean Forest.... also sprinkled Mycorrhizal on each root system. The GG4 is really oing pretty good... I believe the tight node spacing means good things are in store. Super cropping continues. I gotta flip the whole lot of 7 plants...who cares .. first grow mistakes... fun!

Days 106 - 112 (from sprout) 9/6/24 - 9/12/24 Chopped Loompa's Headband x Triangle Kush at day 109 - trichome check looked good enough and most of the leaves were drying out. Cut down according to biodynamic moon calendar for flowers. Blue Nose Pit senescence finally noticeable this week - anthocyanin being it's main display, buds turning more purple The Good Shit has a noticeable fade starting this week now IPM: Applied enzymes (tweetmint) at a rate of 0.5 fl oz to 1/2 gallon and sprayed on cover crops + mulch

Week is going good aside from me accidently cutting off a stem on pheno 2. If I can properly save the cutting though I might have a chance at another female. Pheno 3 I'm hoping can make some comeback as I really want to flower the plant, its not dead by any means but the way its growing I just cant see it allowing itself to flower the top leaves were barely growing so I topped. Hopefully positive changes within the next week.

Week 6 of flowering, and things are heating up—literally with the scent! 🌬️💨 Both plants have significantly increased their aroma, and every time I open the grow box, I’m greeted with a strong and delightful smell that fills the space. The non-LST plant is much further along in its development. Its buds have progressed beautifully in color, and I’ve already noticed the first amber trichomes appearing. 🍂✨ This, along with its overall appearance, is signaling that it’s nearing maturity. Because of this, I’ve started flushing the plant with clear water to prepare it for harvest. Speaking of the LST plant, it’s about a week behind. 🌱 While it’s not as far along, it’s still thriving with strong trichome production and a stunning Lemon Haze aroma that’s sharper every day. 🍋💚 Both plants are doing great, and the differences in their timelines make this grow even more interesting. I’m excited to see how the LST variant catches up in the coming weeks! 😊🌟

5/16 WEEK 4! She has hit 14 inches , secondary and tertiary branches growing nicely due to pony-tailing leaf tucking and 30w of secondary light hitting under the canopy. Color is excellent form is perfect great genetics here Flower is still holding off so this could be a special lady. Nuets are doing great work so leaving then as is of a while. 5/17 Another inch and pony-tail is complete as secondary branches have broken the canopy Just leaf tucking and whatnot from here As is for now 5/18 She hit 20 inches of veg growth without being stretchy, node spacing is good, not hitting flower as yet though she is knocking on the door and likely has begun her stretch. She likes the new light setup and can now hold her own with her tent mates without a "booster seat". No deficiencies Good color Hair growth is good Happy plant May increase Bloom ratio in a couple of days to 50-50 see what the plant says about it. 5/19 Pics Still in veg as the growth tips remain if increasingly hairy no cola formation. 21" her rate of growth is continuing branches staying above leaf canopy. Nuets as is today but one dose of PK incoming tomorrow for hair growth. A little comparison from our last CBD grow - we can dream cant we Gave her 5ml/gal Kangaroots in prep for Flower 5/20 Vertical growth has stopped and she is getting very hairy with the beginning of cola formation. She is transitioning quickly so modified the nuets to half Grow half Bloom for the duration of it. 5/21 Vertical growth has kicked back in so looks like a flowering stretch, 26 inches+ The pause may have been her building her roots after the shots of Kangaroots and she has just resumed her stretch. Moved her directly under the MH-HID in attempt to keep her size more manageable but she is her own girl so... Little one time shot of KoolBloom for hair growth 1ml/gal 5/22 She is finishing the week in full Flower as colas are forming. Good results in hair growth due to PK it seems will use again later. Hitting 29 inches now the tallest plant in the tent, have added support for main stem will add bamboo as she grows. MH-HID light up to full 600w as we need this stretch to slow down the blue light should help.
