Welcome We are at the final conclusions for this premium Kush strain 💯 Breeding by Microgenetica Seed bank Italian made since 2015, based in the beautiful city of Amsterdam This variety has won already three cannabis cups, both in Ams and both in Barcellona 🏆🏆🏆 So, maybe isn't a mainstremm seed bank, but they works very well 👌 Especially the breeder/owner wich is call Stefano Lillo, a great person and super disponible But anyway Almost two months are passed from the final cut and now the flowers are in their best moment Especially the Kush varietyes, probably the strain with a good amount of myrcene, in my opinion take the best and complete taste after this amount of time.. The "Sativa" ones , in the other hands, can be very tasty after only a months ,or less...to be precis the cultivars with mostly fruity tone ! That's my experience.. Coming back to this Mature woman 😎 The taste is obviously very kushy , intense and persistent in smoke session 🔥🔥 I personally prefere to vape it 🙌 Best temperature for a complete taste and effect around 182° and then up to 192° Dipends always from a wich types of vaporizer you use ! With all the famous seriese from the "Vulcano company" , for any their vaporizer, you can follow the temperature up here.. But for example with the Ghost MV1, the best for me is around 190° to 200° Anyway For test at the best if the quality can be ok, i always roll up a spliff...no tobacco or other things.. I do that for see how it burns...slow or fast and especially white ash or contamineted My way for having that is pretty simple.. Only water for the last 20 or more days, no flush like a shower 🚿 I cut the plant in one time and leave it hanging upside down inside a wooden cabinet with always a slight change of air (for example an oscillating fan a few meters away) I leave almost all the leaves still attached (these will give a good indicator of where we are in drying) The whole process must last a maximum of ten days ! Temperature and humidity must always be equally balanced ... even if there were 25 ° there is no problem ... the important thing is that in this case the humidity is not too low, risking to dry the flowers (in this case can be good around 60/62%) The meaning is to always try to stay within the ten days ... + or - So, after a little more than a week the flowers will be crunchy on the outside .... but the stem must not break cleanly, only bend almost reaching the crack.. If the popcorn buds peel off nicely, then it's time to take out all the blooms.. Cleaned the branches from the inflorescences, I usually place them for another two days in a brown paper bag.. Then I put everything back in the jars.. I don't open for 24h ! After this time I start to open and close every about four hours.. I continue like this for about two and a half weeks and every five days, about, I reduce the openings and closings until I get to feel the aroma in its true form. Ah and i do not leave too much air in the jars when the flowers are ready...terpenes oxidize faster...air and light are our enemies ☝️ { But not during the cultivation 😂 } And that's it For more info on this grow cycle you can search in the several weeks where I tried to bring everything back to the best 😉 Thanks so much for the support 🙏🙏 Thanks to Microgenetica for the trust 🙏🙏 And thanks as always to Growdiaries for this space 👍👍👍 Ciao ✌️ 🇮🇹🌏🌎🌍

Day 36 I guess the video I'm uploading kind of says it all I think I need to make a comment anyway everything is going great the yellowing in the leaves primarily due to getting close to the end of flower I doubt it has anything to do with pretty much anything else he is going great can't wait for Harvest Time

Today March 10th is day 50! I spend a few hours of work every other day to tie branches and manipulate leaves -white pistols are showing -will secure netting and stop using pipe cleaners to tie down at the end of the week -I have been using nutrients about every other watering -1.5 tsp micro .5tsp grow 1.5 tsp bloom in about 2 Litres of water After 2 weeks. Royal Gorilla is the fastest blooming followed by the Green Gelato. The LSD is slower. The HulkBerry I started 4 days later is blooming ok

@MephistoGenetics, Hi all the happy people here in GrowDiaries. This is my second cultivation ever and it will be fun to try a bigger space than my closet grow. First, I'm just going to say I'm done with the construction of my new growroom. The room is 2.14 meters by 1.7 meters and has a ceiling height of 2 meters. It provides a floor area of ​​3.6 square meters. I use a 54 Watt Lightwawe T5 for germination and 2 Pcs 400 Watt HPS lamps. I have a channel fan that replaces the room air about 40 times an hour to get a comfortable environment in the room, the air enters a fresh air intake from the outside. The air is purified through a carbon filter to then leave the room to the rest of the basement. Then I use that heat to heat the rest of the basement. I will use 10 pcs 15 liter Autopots to grow with and a 100 liter water tank that supplies the pots of water and nutrition. I will grow completely organically in soil and will watercure my buds to get the best possible medicine for me. But there are no cultivation rooms to be displayed here, so I continue with what is most important. I am very excited to see how the new growroom will work and how this Stilton Special will turn out. Strain Name: Stilton Special F1 Genetic heritage - Sour Livers F3 x Northern Cheese Haze F3 Strain behaviour - Stilton grows well from the off, and develops into a stout but branchy specimine that leads to a fine yield of awesome flowers. She's not too stretchy but also is sizeable enough with good growth, to train and shape to your liking. Flowers develop pretty fast and grow to a good size, it may to advised to clear out some undergrowth and if needs be a very gentle defoliation mid-way through the grow, although leaf tucking may suffice well enough.The end product is of top shelf quality and she doesn't lack in yield either.Give your garden, nose, and body a treat and be sure to indulge in a slice of Stilton this year, You won't regret it. Size - 50 - 70 cm Structure - Medium height but bushy Flower Density - 9/10 Indica/Sativa - 65/35 Cycle Time - 65 to 70 days from sprout Yield - 90 to 140 grams as a single plant Best Method for overall high yield - 9-12 per 1,2m x 1,2m sq in 10-15 Liter pots (Soil) Aroma - Very strong, Cheesey/fruity/sour/spicey/ with a dash of coffee. Taste - Dank berries Effect - Good hybrid powerful but balanced effect Medicinal Benefits - TBA Best Grown - Indoor/Greenhouse Cannabinoids - TBA Extract information - Ideal extract candidate - High in resin, oil and terps. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-09-18. Start of week 4. I have defoliated her and she got water and nutes. She is 17 cm high and have not start to stretch yet. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-09-19. 2 new fan is installed in the grow room. Added pic and video. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-09-20. Kl 23.00. Did some massive defoliation, added video and pics ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 2017-09-22. The girl has recovered well after my massive defoliation. She is now 22 cm high. I accidentally lowered the lamp a bit too far down and burned some leaves on one girl. They have got water and nutrition today.

All caught up with the old diaries and can finally start focusing on the new grow... and it´s been smooth sailing so far! 😎 Waiting on a few supplies to make some upgrades to the ventilation of the tent, but nothing critical.. 😉 Lights at 30% for 24h until cotyledons opened and switched to 18h/6h reducing the distance from 100 to 80 cm. 😊 Weather is changing... temps are fine but I´m keeping an eye on humidity levels, turning the humidifier on and off according with the light schedule to stabilize it at 70%. Averaging for the week 22,6ºC and 69,7% 😍 Lets go! ✊

Hi everyone 😁 I would like to thank you all fellow growers and breeders for such a great support on this journey. Thank you Grow Diaries and Green House Seeds. Without you all this wouldn't be possible. Love you all First ever recorded diary so don't know where to even start 😅 I am returning to growing after many many years of break. This is my first ever experience with autoflowers, scrog, lst, led and such tiny grow space. Choice of strain - Big Bang Auto from Green House Seeds. I have run so many strains from this seed bank in the past and I was always happy with the final outcome. Was looking for indica dominant strain, fast flowering cycle and very important heavy yields on small spaces. Again thank you GHSC in very happy of choosing this strain. Little bit about my cabinet. External dimensions: 64 x 50 x 114 cm (W x D x H) Growing area: 55 x 47 cm cm (0.26 m2) Panel based on SAMSUNG LM301B diodes Spectrum: Samsung LM301B – 5000 x72 Samsung LM301B – 3000k x136 Samsung LM301B – 660nm x9 Samsung LM301B – IR 760nm x1 Regulation in the range of 20W - 110W - Meanwell XLG 100-H-AB PPF 300 umol/s PPFD 890 mol/m2/s @30c Total of 6 adjustable fans, 4 exhaust fans 4 modes - silent/drying, vegetation, flowering, full power Active carbon mass in the filter 2kg Absolutely love my grow cabinet. Thinking of next build already. My grow 3 beautiful ladies - Nuna, Luna and Sweet Mary Jane. This was a pleasure experience growing autos for the first time. All 3 ladies on the end developed perfectly. Nuna, left corner lady- tall and beautiful. She had some problems to switch to flowering and was even considering removing her but very happy that I was patient enough and turned great. Luna, right corner lady - have to say she is the queen. She has the most heavy buds from all, the most. colorful. Her wet weight was 420g, can't say how much of dry but guessing approx. 100g Sweet Mary Jane, front seat lady. I think she was the most pleasant to grow of her location but due to no other spare space for drying I belive that I have harvested her at least a week to early. If keep longer I belive she could be the most yielder from all 3. Thank you all for all the support, help, comments, likes, messeges. Love you all 💚💚💚 Will update this diary in some time and when puff perfectly cured 😎 Peace and love ✌️💚

De momento todo va bien, he añadido un sistema de co2 casero, no se si hará algo por que no tengo medidor, le he echado 500 gramos de azúcar disuelto en agua templada, media pastilla de levadura de unos 12 gramos... Y una uvas trituradas, godzilla Cookies Auto se le están poniendo las hojas más viejas amarillas y se están cayendo, no se si será por deficiencia de algún nutriente o el ciclo natural de la planta.

All plants are doing ok so far. Gave all foliar sprays of BT as there is pest pressure elsewhere in the garden. Supported the tall ones for for a windy day with 20-30mph gusts, they took the wind like champs. Wedding cheesecake the oldest and is starting to give a hint of sweet funk sometimes. Update: While checking plants today, Wedding Cheesecake had a brownish bud (bottom branch). I snip it off, no other affected sites. I will be checking diligently now, as weather has been very hot and humid.

What’s good, fam? Zuppler comin’ through with that week 2 veg update, straight from the capital. The ladies startin’ to really take off now – roots stretchin’ out like they ownin’ the whole crib. We keepin’ it real clean with that RO water, pure as the ocean, ya feel me? Advanced Nutrients been feedin’ these queens like they on some luxury diet, and it’s showin’. Leaves lookin’ lush, no deficiencies in sight, and them stalks startin’ to thicken up like they preppin’ for the fight ahead. Ain’t no stalling in this grow, everything on the up. I’m keepin' the environment steady – temps and humidity locked in tight, like I’m runnin’ a ship with no leaks. We just cruisin’ through, lettin’ the ladies do their thing, no stress. This week’s all about that foundation – roots go deep, stalks get strong. We buildin’ queens, homie, and they 'bout to be ready for that next stage soon. Let’s keep it movin’. Peace, Zuppler out.

Day 57 26/08/24 Monday Feed today using de-chlorinated tap water pH 6. No plagron products as noticed burning again. (I think I'll do a run using advanced. And Plagron. Just to see what's different. ) There all showing great progress!! Divine seeds - auto Overdose, the main bud is so compact and dominant it looks great! The rest are performing well, did a decent fanning of lower two fans that started to turn in colour. Apart from that left them to it ✌️💚 Day 59 28/08/24 Wednesday De-chlorinated tap water pH 6 only today, 400ml with little to no run off. Day. 61 30/08/24 Friday Another feed today using de-chlorinated tap water pH 6 with Plagron products. Picture and videos coming tonight 🤯👀✌️💚 Day 63 01/09/24 Sunday (End of week) De-chlorinated tap water pH 6 today with calmag. Notes on plant structures , bud structures, leaf density. - Auto critical orange punch - Xmas tree shape, main colar nice and thick. Side arms - doing with LST next time would provide more decent tops. Strong structure, big fans, but bud to leaf ratio is high! Compact ball shaped buds so far. - Orange Bud - she Climbs! Tall, Long structure, I would top this strain next time, with LST next time again she would provide alot more tops. She has an even leaf to bud ratio, but the buds look fire already and there only just forming! Getting hues of blue on calyxes. Taller buds. - Auto Melonade Runtz - Another Xmas tree shape, ideal for LST, main colar bud is impressive, she just wants to stack. Leaf to bud ratio is even again, bud the buds are forming tall, with pistils firing everywhere. - Auto Overdose Wow, compact short autoflower, with a powerful punch! She is dense!! Fanse are even, thick, and balanced. Leaf to bud, even. Bud formations - dense boulders already, like mini hedgehogs. I would definitely do a SOG with these 🤩
