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...

Wow she jumped 3" inches, being this small it's a huge accomplishment for her 馃憦. Looks like she'll be running for the sky as well. I'm interested to see the difference of a strain with high CBD as well.

Again, a week has passed. I repotted the plants into their final 15L/4 gallons shoes with Plagron All-Mix. Plants are looking fine, not perfect, but okay.
It feels like they are a bit overwatered and/or very slightly overfed because of the All-Mix. For now, I reduce the watering by 50%.
Furthermore, I did a FIM on another Jack Herer (#3). The first FIM I did on JH#1 is looking to work out perfectly, as I can see the development of four new stems (check out the pictures). Great!
The SP 3000's intensity was increased to full power, it's very bright. I am happy with the quality of the light. It does what it was built for and does it very well.
Temperature and humidity stats are looking perfectly so far. I hope it stays like that, the days are getting warmer as summer comes our way.
But my ventilation is currently running on intensity level 1/5, so we still have some room for maneuver. In addition, I will get a second oscillating clipfan soon.
Next week I plan to FIM plants that have not been FIMed yet and let them recover. By then, most of the stress for the plants should be over and I can let them grow in peace.
Stay tuned!

Wow. The buds are filling in. The trichomes are starting to pile onto the buds. There aren't many trichomes on the leaves yet, but the buds are thick. The high heat and low humidity has been a struggle. Lots of fan leaves losing the fight with heat, but the buds are looking great. This one is gonna be well over a pound. Well over

bending some sticks to give better light penetration to lower parts of the plants.
Added green grass layer for bacteria and better watering ability.
Just added NeemOil one time to prevent fungus gnats. Rest of the time only watering once a day a little amount.
Terps start to develop:
Tezla OG = kushy, planty smell
Marshmallow OG = Kushy Earthy smell
Nutter Budder = Super Nutty and Cal铆 Kushy Smell the best one out of the three yet.

Well, those in the catalog died or did not germinate well, apart from that, the 6 seeds without breed that we have saved from good buds that came into my hands germinated well. here I share a little of what could be recorded, as you can see there is a bigger one that was the attempt to germinate the cars with an approximate age advantage of 25 days, with that criterion I will comment on this one in particular and the others in your set.
The largest in age also has the largest pot of all of 11 liters approx 3 gallons
The 2nd largest is for having the 2nd largest pot of 7 or 8 liters approx 2 gallons
The remaining 5 are in pots of 3.5 liters or 1 gallon
We also started fighting with the high temperatures due to the weather, which will go down as the months go by in our favor, we turn on lights at night and turn off the lights during the day to compensate, which we will manage just as well as the plants adapt, as will be seen until 3 o'clock 4 week of flowering, which is the one we are currently going through when this diary is being updated

I really slacked at the end of this grow, my schedule changed drastically in the last month and I was unable to really take care of her the way I wanted. She yielded a 56 grams exactly.

Well these beauties are stood at a whopping 42" and are now working on their flowers in full effect! I'm quite sure at this point all these clones are the same strain of sugar bomb punch 馃榿 so ending up with the favourite in their! She reminds me of runtz muffin because of the orange punch in her genetics!

Strain is actually very easy to grow so i would recommend it even to begginers. Robust plant that did very well on topping, hst and lst training. Buds are thick and heavy. They release very pungent and piney smell with deep tones that reminds grape. After a week of drying i did some bud testing and i would describe the high as awesome physical stone with a bit of euphoria and happiness. Cant wait to cure the buds for a couple of weeks. Peace and be safe!

Blacked out all windows in the shed and moved Moby Dick plants here from greenhouse to ensure flowering as they are now in darkness for 13 hours uninterrupted. Growing very well for 7 week old. Ran into some nitrogen deficiency problems as these Phenos are very nutrient demanding but still no problems. Will keep in flower for 4 weeks and bobs your uncle

12/09/2022 - 36 days since my little girl sprouted from seeds馃尡
The first week of flowering my Mandarine XL 馃崐馃崐馃崐
Nutrients:
Jungle Indabox - This week I adjust the dose of nutrients to support flowering and added nutrients - flowering stimulators:
Jungle Urban A: 0.5 ml
Jungle Urban B: 1.5 ml
Jungle Urban M: 1 ml
Flower stimulators:
Jungle Environ X: 1ml
Advanced Nutrients - Bud Candy 2 ml
Advanced Nutrients - Bud Ignitor 1 ml
Advanced Nutrients - Big Bud 2ml
Hesi Root Complex - 5ml - last week of adding this nutrient
Atami - ATA Calmag - when growing under LED lights it is recommended to use Calmag and Atami is an excellent brand, I give the same as in vegetation: 0.5ml.
Lights: I don't change Bloom light, I still use Mars Hydro TS1000 - 150w full spectrum, great light to use both in vegetation and flowering 馃挕馃挕
Training:
LST: third attachment of all twigs where flowers are formed 馃尭馃尭
Defoliation: the first big defoliation took place in the middle of the week, I removed the large leaves at the bottom of the plants and those that shaded the flowers 馃崈馃尀
The little girl has only grown by 5 cm since last week, she is already putting all her strength into flowering. The pistils at the ends of the twigs already form white tufts 馃槉馃挀
I can smell a subtle scent of herbs and flowers, but very subtle indeed. I'm already looking forward to the girl smelling the whole room and I can smell all the notes of her aroma馃尲
Thanks for the likes and you can follow me on Twitter 馃惁: @ Targona666
See you soon 馃槏

2 of them really starting to cannibalise all their fan leaves.. on day 56 and wanted to make day 70. Not sure if I should cut down a few now or let them all keep going til the end.
Got the gnats under control.
Days are going by very slowly 馃槅
3 different genres of music to go with each strain haha.
Smells are out of this world when I unzip the tent! 24k and sour kosher all smelling gassy with lots of earthy undertones and the gelato just smells straight gasoline.
