During week 7 the 3 plants continue to grow outstandingly well! The BADAZZ-CHEESE and ZHEETOS from BIG BUDDHA SEEDDS have a healthy green color and grow so much foliage that I have to defoliate on a regular basis. On day 43 (=flowering day 19) I take off all bigger fan leaves in order to ensure a better airflow thru the closet. The humidity is unfortunately still on the high side and sometimes exceeds 80% in the daily maximum, that is MUCH too high during flowering. I increased the dose of BIO NOVA nutrients according to their feeding scheme and all plants LOVE IT! The ZHEETOS #1 plant grows much taller than her sister ZHEETOS #2, therefore I decide to SUPER-CROP her on Day 48 (=FD 23). This technique developed by SOMA from SOMA-SEEDS is one of my favorites and I use it since years in order to bush out plants, which grow to high. Appr. 15-20 cm from the top of the plant, right above an internode, I take the main stem between two fingers and press very hard until I can feel the fibres inside the stem brake. By slowly pressing all around the diameter of the stem I create a weak spot at which I bend over the stem, so it looks 90-180 degrees downward. I do this very carefully to NOT BRAKE the outer skin of the stem while I bend the stem downwards. Even if some fibres brake, the stem will repair itself within a few days to a week and then start to point upwards again...馃憤馃槂 During the time the main stem needs to repair itself, all other side-stems will grow more upwards and this makes the plant bush out more. At the same time a super-cropped plant will produce bigger buds at harvest time, than a plant where you did not do that. Somehow the plant reacts to being hurt by getting stronger and producing more! CHECK OUT THE VIDEO ABOVE TO SEE ME SUPER-CROP! 馃槑 I also took a video ONE DAY after the procedure (on DAY 49), in order to show how resilient the plant is and how much she immediately repairs herself. Already then the main top has turned and points upwards to the light again, ITS FANTASTIC TO SEE! Simply a miracle plant...

Hola amigos! Buenos humos a todos! 馃寠馃 La semana anterior no hice actualizaci贸n, pero he estado haciendo lavado de ra铆z casi en todas las plantas. La humedad ac谩 es todo un reto, 3 ventiladores, 1 deshumidificador y 1 extractor no es suficiente para 1.5m2. No hay forma de bajar del 70%. Hasta arroz he puesto en la base de las macetas. He tenido nuevamente problemas con botrytis y tuve que cortar algunas colas o parte de ellas. Esto es lo peor que puede pasar ya en la 煤ltima semana. Tambi茅n tuve otro problema, pues a pesar de nunca haber tenido un macho en casa, ni haber detectado alguna hermafrodita, una de las AK47 apareci贸 polinizada y est谩 echando semillas (ya al final de la floraci贸n) . Tuve que cortar varias ramas y flores para detener esa producci贸n y as铆 la planta termine de madurar. No s茅 c贸mo ir谩 a quedar esa marihuana con ese problema, pero por el tiempo que queda, no creo que termine de formar por completo las semillas. Otra opci贸n pudo ser estr茅s por exceso de PK o por exceso de calor (m谩s de 27C). Le铆 que esta sepa es propensa a crear flores macho por estas causas. Todo lo dem谩s anda bien. Les dejo unas pocas fotos y un video r谩pido. Hoy estoy limpiando un poco y esta un poco desordenado.

20/12/21: third week of flower - everything is coming along as it should - had to defoliate (hopefully for the last time) some of the fan leaves further to make space and to free up the light source for the buds that are lower down. pistils are really popping and all plants are looking healthy and strong. Leaves are starting to get their trichomes especially on the main kolas.

Day 53 of flower and she鈥檚 definitely approaching the end, as this strain runs for anywhere from 56-70 days. Odor is very strong with some serious gassy orange soda terps. Most all of the trichomes are still looking hazy to milky white. No amber showing yet except for on some of the sugar leaves, which should make for some nice heavy edibles once I process trim. Have been flushing for the last few weeks and will continue until harvest. Can鈥檛 wait to give this pretty lady the chop.

11/22 Week 14 One has fallen five remain FFT-11-1 is in dry Rate of harvest as much weather driven as anything dont want a lot exposed at once. Planning every 2-3 days FFT-10 is in full bud building mode still so keeping the pedal down on them with a 10/10 finishing feed till we see some closure on those buds. FFT-9 is really showing great color purple so deep almost black water only FFT-11-2 is waiting her turn water only 11/23 pics Harvest FFT-11-2 in the morning 11/24 Yield on FFt-11-1 : 189 grams dry FFt-11-2 in dry (1100 grams wet) 11/25 Unless the weather turns on us will harvest both FFt-9s tomorrow FFt-11-2 still in dry be finished tomorrow 11/27 The FFT-10 stands alone , showing signs of ending, putting them on a finishing feed and reduce as the buds close 11/28 Welp those signs of ending backed off and she making buds heavy again. Go girls go not reducing feed till this goes as far as it will zero pressure to harvest. Lights on pics Built a better jute cage for FFT-10-2 she is very wide and there was a danger of branches breaking from weight of buds. Increased Bloom and Peak PK hitting them a bit harder as dont want noticeable def beginning until I want them as much as practical. Buds still spikey and hairs strong though seem a few less its not much. Seems every time we switch up our PK for them it triggers another round of production. See what what when they begin to slow again. This is fun dont get to do this... ever... no space pressure finally although thats due to problems in germ more than my design going forward I think. Plants are at max par being under their individual ts-2000s so I killed the side lights not doing a lot anyway with the tent near empty 11/30 At lights on the buds seem to be slowing, reducing the Bloom nuets and PK after a single hard hit to see if they pick up

Both are still growing healthy beautiful buds but like the rest of the tent, they were a little burned this week. I dimmed down the light. That helped with the temperature as well.

The plants stretched a lot this week also started flowering so i started with 4 of these seeds. 3 of them got the exact same hight and width so i took out the smallest plant to make seeds with it in another room. the cannopy is filled nice with just the three of them i hope stretching stops and flowers start to fatten up. they will continue to flower under this 104watt Led untill harvest

Flower coming along nicely, definitely looking at longer than the advertised 56-63 days but I'm hopeful of a strong harvest looking at them so far. Keeping it all crossed for that to continue!

420Fastbuds FBT2314 Germination Week Time has come yet to start another amazing Tester strain from 420Fastbuds FBT2314. Started germination on 2/7 by soaking the seeds in just water for 48hrs then planting it directly in the soil (Roots Organic 707) in a 3gal fabric pot. I spray the top soil with my gallon sprayer keeping it moist for the next week. After 48hrs in the soil we have sprouts that emerged that appear to be healthy and happy. All in all Happy Growing

Hey gang update on the new girls!!!! So they are definite differences in the girls genetics I can tell just by this growth so far, The Tricross is a bit thinner on the fan leaves and a bit more lanky or taller. Whereas the Muchacha F5 is shorter and has wider fan leaves, so this will Most Def be a interesting grow, I'm excited to see if i can make this a much better grow then the last run. I will be using the FOOP nutrient line i picked up to see how the girls fare with is, but i wont start that until maybe week 5 or 6 depending on how the progress is at that point, thanks guys! will keep y:all posted!!!!

Things are getting serious now!馃敟 #2 has developed an insanely large main bud, absolutely packed with trichomes and giving off a super pungent aroma. 馃尶 Meanwhile, #1 keeps stretching and is still the biggest plant in the tent. It continues to give off that stunning sweet, tropical scent, which is just unreal! Both plants seem to be moving fast鈥擨 have a feeling they might be ready in about two weeks. Let鈥檚 see how they finish up! 馃ぉ
