Intermediate Results Overview This grow was intense! Setting up the grow consumed so much of my time and focus that I started slacking at work, and it took me a month to get back on track. But hey, what’s the point of a job if it gets in the way of growing? 😉 In the end, everything worked out, and I gained invaluable experience. This was my first grow using coco coir. At first, I didn’t get it, but then it just clicked! Now I’m hooked: "I’m here to stay." Coco is more controlled than soil, flushes easily, and you can introduce beneficial microbes, which thrive in it. My main takeaway from this grow? If you buy coco, don’t forget CalMag! Next time, I’ll definitely install HEPA filters at the intake. The amount of dust was insane, and the grow box pulls air like a vacuum cleaner. Watching the timelapse, you can see the box sucking in every bit of dust. I vacuumed the intake filters weekly. The plant was incredibly sticky, but that also meant it caught a lot of lint and fibers between trichomes, especially visible under a microscope. Smoking microplastics? No, thank you! --- On CO2 CO2 only works if everything else is dialed in. If the plant experiences stress from deficiencies or overfeeding, you can forget about it. Since CO2 supplementation requires turning off the exhaust fan, it’s hard to manage temperature and humidity. The plant releases so much moisture that RH jumps to 80% within minutes. It’s doable, but definitely a challenge. --- On Magnetic Fields No clue what’s happening here yet, but it’s fascinating! I’ll test again with a control sample. --- Nutrients Dreams do come true—I’ve tested almost everything Advanced Nutrients offers. It wasn’t all smooth sailing; their feeding charts need adjustments for your conditions, and you usually need to feed less than recommended. Overall, I’d say the nutrients performed 100%, and I see no reason to switch. I’ll stick with them for future grows. --- Strain This strain is reliable, though not the most productive. It flowered exactly as advertised and delivered a frosty finish. It tolerated all my mistakes like a champ—especially mold. Despite an abandoned SCROG plan turning the plant into a bouquet, there wasn’t a single mold spot, even in the densely packed lower buds that got almost no light. Zero mold issues! --- Aroma As advertised: pine, wood, and citrus. At first, I thought it smelled like grapefruit, but now I’m leaning toward bergamot. Bergamot with a classic weed aroma—a recognizable twist on the usual scent. During the grow, the smell was strong, but the carbon filter handled it perfectly. --- Flavor It’s too early to say, but the flavor is definitely there! Embarrassingly, all my past harvests tasted the same—like nothing. Just smoke. This one has a distinct sour taste. I’m excited to see how it develops after curing. --- Effect Too early for a full review, but I love what I’ve tried so far. The high lasts about three hours, with euphoria and relaxation. It’s the perfect evening strain. I’ve smoked a lot over the years, but I’ve never experienced true euphoria—until now. Guess I’ve been stuck with garbage and ditch weed before. 😅 It’s not a strain for productivity or chores, but it’s perfect for chilling, watching something, or chatting. No anxiety, just great vibes. It feels like having a beer after a long day: you relax, and life feels good again. --- Roots The roots were healthy—maybe too healthy! While the AirPot (20L) prevented root circling, it didn’t eliminate it entirely. There were dead zones at the bottom where roots circled around the perimeter. A dense root mat formed at the bottom (so dense you couldn’t poke a finger through it), which likely contributed to salt buildup. Breaking through that mat required more water, and I suspect this caused EC to spike 1.5x the next day if there was no runoff. Next time, I’ll mix some pumice with the substrate at the bottom, about 3–4 cm deep. --- Timelapse I only got the timelapse running after the switch to flowering, so it’s not from the beginning. Still, it’s an incredibly useful tool for understanding growth rates. I’ll definitely use it for future grows. Comparing yesterday to today is one thing, but rewinding a week to see how things were is game-changing. I recommend it! You can even use an old phone with a timelapse app if your camera doesn’t support it by default. --- What’s Next I’ve grown fat buds before, but I’ve always neglected curing. This time, I’m doing it by the book with full control. Drying in the grow box with RH controlled at 50–60% (averaging 55%) for a slow, even dry. Temps are kept between 20–23°C, with frequent venting to keep it below 21°C for terpene preservation. After 7–10 days, when small stems snap with a characteristic sound, I’ll trim and jar them with humidity sensors. For the first two weeks, I’ll burp the jars twice daily, then reduce to once daily for the next two weeks. After that, I’ll monitor the RH sensors and adjust as needed. I’ll share the details after curing is complete. After drying, I’ll weigh the buds, take photos, and share another post in a month or two after curing to report on the flavor and aroma. For now, I’m taking a breather, fine-tuning my setup, and preparing for my next grow: Wizard Trees - Zangria S1.

I have grow 3 plants . number one 5 gallon smart pot. number two in a 3 gallon smart pot .and number three in a 5 gallon smart pot part of the difference between number two is because of limited space to grow big root system to support a bigger plant. They have been a very enjoyable plant to grow with an incredibly powerful smell impossible to grow stealth unless you have a good carbon filter can wait two post weight for each plant and to have a test smoke I Will Wait approximately between 7 to 14 days until the main stem snaps and a crunchy sound tell me they're ready then I check for dry weight and them jar them for curing. Day 9 off drawing and I pull out a branch to have a smoke test it is incredibly potent and a wonderful smoke despite not being cure it's very smooth but they're not ready for me to jar them I don't like to deal with mold or being opening the jars every few hours that's why I dry it thoroughly and use humidity packs so I don't have to deal with issues after weight and them jar them for curing. This are the weight plant number one 156. 36 grams and number two 76. 88 grams plant #3 72.12 grams. Already had a smoke tester this stuff its a couchlock beautiful lovely smoke come by a powerful High I recommend this train to anybody who can accommodate for the strong odour. lovely strain I want to try this one again it is like I citric skunk smell very pleasant and Powerful. I was very surprised how heavy and thick the buds were in the small plant compared to the others what an incredible nice plant to grow. thank you for reading I will continue to update have a happy grow

Week 9, Day 63, Day 19 of Flower. Once again all is going well, girls are doing nicely. PK1 is still larger than PK2 but PK2 is getting larger also. Buds are starting to bulk and some nice colas starting to form. I am very pleased with how they are doing. After this coming week 4 of Flower I am going to switch to only KoolBloom 2-45-28 for 2 to 3 weeks at a 1/4 tsp/gallon. Any suggestions or comments?

Auto Northern Dragon Fuel is looking really good. Everything is going great with her. I am just keeping her fed and wet.

This week I did a final bit of defoliation just to channel the energy to the buds. I upped the EC to 2.1. I got a well priced pkm boost powder from my local hydro shop, wich I added to get the EC levels a bit higher. I will start flushing at the end of this week with a flushing solution. I have also been making use of a dehumidifier to reach optimal RH.

Mexican Airlines is starting to fatten up nicely. I'm still quite impressed by the amount of great looking bud sites. Also, the dominant cola seems to be coming from what would have been the lowest branch if she was not bent over. Very interesting, to me at least. Feeding her with Recharge and Big Bloom, she seems to like it. 👍

Week 10 – Ready for the final stretch Most of the pistils have turned brown, with only a few white hairs remaining – a clear sign that harvest is approaching fast. The buds have bulked up nicely, becoming denser and stickier, covered in a frosty layer of trichomes. The aroma has intensified, leaning towards a sweet, fruity profile, likely enhanced by the Bud Candy. The foliage looks healthy, and I performed a light defoliation to improve airflow. At the beginning of the week, the plant received its final feeding: a mix of Green Sensation and Bud Candy in 2 liters of distilled water. That was followed by a dose of Flawless Finish. From now on, only pH-adjusted water will be used until harvest.

I went ahead and gave them a lil bit of voodoo just one watering with it. I am doing leaf tucking or leaf breading whenever I see possible. They all seem to like it especially #1 and #3.😊

Es sieht gut aus. In den nächsten Tagen fällt die erste Strawberry Ak#2. Sie duften wirklich sehr gut. Jacky White sehr zitronig und ich hoffe das bleibt so. Die Strawberry Ak duftet wieder sehr erdbeerig fruchtig. Toller strain..

I went away on vacation to Utah for a week so I wasn't able to update my grow journal at all unfortunately . She really exploded while I was gone she's roughly 14"tall x 17"wide. She is starting to give off a nice dank smell I had the carbon filter off but I switch it back on. The tents humidity will drop back to 35-40RH% because of this. I also switched the bloom lights back on so the temp is also going to rise up higher than 75F during the day. My guess is at night the tent hits a low of 62F but averages around 65F. The co2 bag has some awesome growth and Its Cleary producing co2 because this lady is praying towards her lights ! I 100% recommend using c02 bag for sure even though most places online will say its useless. DAY 40- Added tomato cage to help support it ! it is two feet exactly as of today! *New time lapse* 2/10/20- Took 2 cuttings for clones, she is a cool plant and id like to keep her genetics alive for breeding projects this summer =) lollipoped the bottoms a bit and defoliated the lower fan leaves as well. Temp is back to 80F and 38RH% 2/11/20- Did absolutely nothing but admire this beauty today ;) 2/12/20- Watered with Recharge (double the strength), Cal Mag, and Mammoth P at 6.5 Ph 2/13/20-NFTG mis flower feed

Well one is finishing strong and the other is coming back strong. Currently have one on its last week of nutrients and will be starting the flush this coming week! The one that is a little behind still taking nutrients the base as well as bud candy and big buds. Next week the slow plant will switch from big bud nutrients to overdrive. Very fun grow with lots of great lessons learned on this one. Almost finished now I’m getting excited for harvest and the next grow already 😂 anybody else get eager to crack the next seeds this deep into harvest?

All doing perfect not alot to say, defoliated on 18/1/21 and tied a few branches where I could to make a little more room. Maybe 3weeks then ripen +flush Daily updates

Day 76!!!! 320 gr. it's amazing :) the girl would definitely be bigger if I could provide the right conditions :) unfortunately, it's too hot for me at the moment :( but she did it :) what's most important :) I'm happy :) next time we'll improve :) there will be an update after drying :) in 89 days I used 257 kw of electricity :) I got about 450-500 gr :D from two girls' car, I think it's not a bad result either :) :)
