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 ✌️ 🇮🇹🌏🌎🌍

My harvest was trimmed bud at 217.3 grams, then smaller buds, and some leaf material was 59.3 grams. Easily a half pounder auto under a 100 watt Spiderfarmer SF-1000 light. Was more loose due to the plant outgrew the light. 33x28 in diameter roughly. Thanks again Bomb seeds and Spider farmer.

Last week, first of flowering, was outstanding, I could water the girls regulary and the work paid off they stretched a lot and are looking super healthy. The girl right below the upper fan is suffering a bit with the shadows and is notoriously shorter than her sisters, I will need to rethink the air circulation for the next grow. Another concern of mine is their height, hoping they dont stretch anymore as the lights are already at maximum possible height inside tent and there is only 20cm gap between it and the plants.

Hi growmies, The plants are in full flower now and have been defoliated after the hst of last week and seems like she has recovered. I had removed the filter and vent from the box and have the vent suck the air out of the box into the carbon filter, which gave me another 10 cm to play with. The plant consumes around 2 l of nutrient solution in 24 hours. This whole experience is howling me that I have to change the system in the box as I loose to much height with the grow table and the rockwool blocks. Will probably run a 20 l DWC in it, that I am currently working on.

12/18 start of a new week they seem to have really settled into the bed and reacted well to the last feed. 12/21 gave a tea that had worm castings, lobster compost, gnarly barley, craft blend, rolled oats, and molasses 20 hour brew. Added all the goodies to it 3 gallon drench. Defoliated lower leaves touching dirt.

6/17/20: 15 days from seed. 11 plants look absolutely fantastic. 2 are a bit undersized, although they're probably the second wave of sprouters and are expected to be a bit behind schedule. 1 has twisted leaves and doesn't seem to be growing as well as the others. I moved one of the 6" clip-on fans into the tent yesterday to increase airflow. Discovered this morning that shutting the window of the grow room and sealing the tent completely with the humi set to midway results in a quite humid grow tent/room the next morning; RH was at 82% when I checked in! 6/19/20: Day 17. Watering day. I'm going to add 0.25 tsp of Dyna-Gro Grow to the mix. Maybe too early, but a little bell in my mind is saying "It's time!" Every plant is popping new growth, even the weird twisty ones. I think that means the conditions are dialed in and they're happy. I probably shouldn't upset the apple cart, and maybe this will end up being the place when I look back on this diary that will make me say "And that's where it all started to go wrong," but ... I just want to give them a tiny little kick. We'll see how they like it! 6/21/20: Day 19. Watered/fed again. Plants are crushing it since I started adding the DG! 6/23/20: Day 21. Conditions are getting a bit cramped in the Solo cups for a couple of the kids. I think a couple might get potted up today. Exciting!

Definitely behind in my journalism… big surprise there. I never could keep up with it. I blame it on purchasing my first trailer and camping all the times From what I remember this is the week I started to see pistols. One plant started to develop some mottling. Didn’t do much to change it, just kept on with the nutrients and it seemed to grow out of it quickly.

She looks like a single main cola coming from the soil, very hard dense and sticky, I love this little cream mandarine, the aroma I can say is very sweet, but not definitely the most sweet of the garden. Peace ✌️ 💚

On its full flush now, buds are coated in THC and the Aromas are beautiful, petty it was as planned 'seed to smoke in 60 days'. Run off was 108ppm on Saturday when introducing straight RO water. Will be chopping in the next 72 hours. . Chopped the girl down amd I must say, I'm impressed with her yield 💪 got shit loads of pocorns and lower bids which I'll be turning to hash.

Welcome to week 6 with four tall ladies of Critical Orange Punch. They grew a bit and I removed some of the lower branches that did not get enough light and were too small and thin. The plants look healthy and seem to like their 1.5 EC nutrients mix. Day 37: I only measured ph and EC which were both ok (5.8 & 1.6) Day 38: I added 20l water to the tank and added some nutrients including Calcium and Mag. I hope to prevent them from getting these rust spots with the CalMag. EC is set to 1.7, ph 5.5 Day 39: Ph down to 5.7 (before it was 6.0), EC is at 1.8. Gonna get the EC down a bit when the tank is getting empty. And I removed some smaller branches again because I don't wanna get exclusive popcorn buds. And I measured the height again which is 50cm in average. I hope they stop growing soon and start producing flowers because the space above is getting smaller and smaller. And I cleaned the bio-pump completely. Day 40: I cut down some smaller branches to get more airflow between the leafes and because I don't want popcorn buds. And I stopped giving them water. The plan is to keep it stopped for 2-3 days to dry them out. I am wondering when the flowers will appear. Day 41: nothing Day 42: Some more stretching, the highest branch is 74cm in average they have approx 64cm. Added some Bloombastic to the tank and put the watering system on again. The pots were really light and empty but the plants looked pretty smooth. Also I added Gen200 again.

Time lapse 23rd June > Aug 21st 2020. Plenty of screwups - over/under watering+ feeding + pollenated the tent with one hermie, two plants throwing nannas (due to UV) out in the last two weeks and the major heatwave all did not help, This was totally my screw up and for that I still give this strain a solid 8/10. The tastes are nice although my first try of Runtz was in Cali and it is certainly another level over there. Unfortunately I did not get a pheno similar to that I smoked in the US but out of the 5 I did get I really enjoyed one of them which is hard hitting! Apologies for the time-lapse as its not always spot on and often other things took over. Stuff never goes the way you plan it in your head. Upon drying the temps were good and they dried okay. The reason why this is a write off is because one of the plants hermied and caused most of the plants to be pollenated. When I harvested I noticed a few nannas poking out so I'm not sure if I let them run too long, too much stress, underwatering, light intensity, the UV bar or heat stress. Anyways I didn't catch it and I have some well developed seeds. I think it's down to the UV bar causing the nannas but the seeds were ripe (tiger stipe brown) so didn't have enough time to grow and ripen. Seeing as I had deficiencies early on in flower - WK4 - I think it happened then. The PP and runtz all have seeds bar one plant (the nice gassy pheno) and the tent was cleaned with bleach, vacuumed and temps increased to over 100f with a heater after disinfecting. Nevertheless I will grow this again! it's all a learning curve! More bud shots to come when cured. Just over an 1oz per plant is pretty poor imo but again you live and learn from your screw up! Got to be on point with my watering next time! That's why I love hydro!
