No extra nutrients given in the last week or so, but no flushing as such. Harvested this week, since the smell was discernible from outside the house ;-) Now drying, in a remote shed.

Today 7/30/19, day 57 and the start of week 9. I'm still continuing to alternate between days with my pesticide treatment (especially after finding that bug living on one of hulkberries fan leaf) and thrive alive green daily foliage spray as a prophylactic solution against any possible pests or mold going into these last few dog days of veg. I will flush them with distilled ph'd water for two days this weekend in preparation for flower. Then I'll start them on some "flower fuel" bloom booster on top of my secret for success flower recipe at 1/4 of the recommended strength. Outside of that still no adverse issue to report for the end of the 8th week. After my last trim, they both have responded very nicely, I was kind of worried about fat banana stalled growth. But one thing I noticed when I topped her at the 6th node, yes the main stem stopped growing but it developed many bud sites up and down every stem. Whereas hulkberry was topped at the 8th node, she has mainly focused on developing long stems and only 2 or 3 bud sites along her stems. Even though hulkberry in structure, is much bigger than fat banana and has a way bigger root system. Fat banana is bushier and has developed way more bud sites than hulkberry. I can't tell which strain will yield the most at this point only time will tell! Also, a big shout out to "J"@RQS, thank you for the excellent customer service. Another reason why Royal Queen Seeds is top 3 in breeding!!

A good starter week. Both little ladies are doing well. They're both stretching just a bit. I've increased the light intensity so all should be good.

Day 42, everything is chuggin along pretty healthy. Definitely some seeds in most of them which bugs me. The whole tent reeks tho which is nice. Some of the citradellics look like they are gettin pretty close so I'll start keeping an eye on them. I had to take the pics again and was strugglin so they arent my best. I have to go thru them still so I got the video up and tmm or as soon as possible I'll get the still shots up✌️ They both are just fattening up day after day and dont seem like they plan to stop anytime soon. They're covered in overly stocky Terps, feels like gorilla tape level of sticky. 2 is the keeper at this point, I'm not sure if theres somethin off in #1 coco I havnt been able to test run off but just feels like its growing a little slower and awkward.

STRAIN: Divine Seeds genetics - underrated breeders producing excellent quality! NUTRIENTS: Full Biotabs bacterial line - positively surprised by the results! Organic living soil approach. GROWING APPROACH: Focused on DLI (calculated from Migro’s PAR map), VPD, water temperature, and water resting time. Did NOT monitor pH, EC, CO₂, or use PAR meter. MY BEST HARVEST SO FAR! 🏆 COLLECTIVE METRICS (4 plants total): • Total dry weight: 210g (+ 10g bubble hash) • Total wet weight: 890g • g/watt: 2.21 (or 2.31 with hash) • g/m²: 583 (or 611 with hash) • Average per plant: 52.5g Individual weights: Fractal 55g, Black Opium 67g (best performer!), Moon Rock 34g.

My Skunk Apple Run plant is still a bit young, but I can see those buds starting to form. It's a bit of a slow starter, with buds popping up all over the place instead of a nice even line. We'll see if adjusting the light cycle or its food might help it along. I'll keep you posted on any changes. The past few weeks have been so beautiful, watching the plants grow and change. It's amazing how something so small and fragile can turn into something so strong and vibrant. Now that they're getting ready to bloom, it feels a little bittersweet. I'm so excited to see the finished product, but I'll definitely miss having them around while they're growing.

Grow Diary: Week 8 – Training and Sunlight Transitions The Durban Poison quartet is hitting its stride this week. Looking at the latest photos and video, it’s clear that the training regimen is paying off. The focus of Week 8 has been "Low Stress, High Reward" as the plants prepare for their final move. Plant Progress: Structural Integrity The visual profile of DP1, DP4, DP5, and DP6 is looking fantastic. The foliage is a thick, vibrant green, and the node spacing is tight, indicating they are getting optimal light levels. Training Technique: The colored LST stakes (red, yellow, and green) are doing a great job of pulling the main stems and secondary branches down. This is creating a level canopy, ensuring that no single "top" is hogging all the sun. Leaf Profile:You can really see those classic Sativa fan leaves coming in—long, slender fingers that are starting to overlap. Root Health:** The main stalks are thickening up nicely, showing good woody strength that will be necessary once they are in the larger 25-gallon bags. The "Defensive Perimeter" Status** The video and photos show the African Marigolds are making great progress in their Solo cups. Current State: They are showing multiple sets of true leaves and look ready for their supporting role. Placement: Having them staged right next to the DP plants on the deck ensures they are already familiarizing themselves with the local environment before the big transplant. The Indoor/Outdoor Rotation The photos highlight the flexibility of the current setup. Sun Chasing: The plants were captured both under the supplemental indoor lighting and out on the deck. This "hardening off" process is crucial for preventing leaf scorch when they eventually move outside full-time. Mobility: The use of the various pots and the proximity to the garden furniture shows how easy it is to shuffle these girls around to catch the best rays or find shelter from the wind. Observations & Nutrition The soil looks well-aerated with a healthy amount of wood-based organic matter. The plants aren't showing any signs of "clawing" or nutrient burn, which means the current organic feeding schedule is hitting the "sweet spot." Next Steps: 1. The Big Move: All eyes are on the upcoming transplant. The plants are definitely reaching the limit of their current containers. 2. Monitoring: Keep an eye on the LST stakes; as the stems thicken, we’ll want to ensure the wire isn't cutting into the "skin" of the stalks. 3. Hydration: With the plants getting larger and the Colorado air staying dry, we'll be watching the soil moisture closely to ensure the microbes stay happy. -Keep growing and stay mindful ✌️

DAY 83 - 26/05/2025 - COLHEITA First cycle results: Despite a broken branch in the third week of flowering, the harvest was 35 grams. I ended up tasting it uncured, and it was wonderful. After a month of curing, the grassy flavor has completely disappeared, maintaining a sweet tea with a hint of sour green apple. When smoking, the taste lingers with each puff, leaving a similar aftertaste in the mouth. The effects are energizing, upbeat, and creative. I've already reserved space for it in my next cycle, but this time I'll use FastBuds Afghan Kush Auto for more relaxing effects.

Plants are doing and looking beautiful. Plants look like they fully recovered from the previous weeks mishaps.. Buds are developing nicely at this point And every day I notice them slightly bigger .. I'm noticing the smell get stronger day by day as well Keeping temp at 76-78 and humidity at 45% At the end of week 3 I will run 7L of pure r20 ph@6 through the autopot system , to let any accumulated salts from the hoses and roots flush out . The plants should use up 7L in about 2 days and then I will continue with my regular feedings probably on day 3 of week 4 Also the weather has been getting warmer the last few days and after adding the 2 new lights the temps are getting higher in my tent .. Added 8inch Vortex inline fan to bring fresh air from outside on a controller that shuts on or off depending on temp

Well it finally happened, the girls have outgrown the 4x4! Was mid week and was having a hard time keeping humidity below 65%. Thought of defoliating, but can't keep doing that weekly or it will shock them sooner than later. So I decided to move the front left plant to the 3x3 under the Photontek SQ300W, giving the girls in the 4x4 some much needed breathing room. Set about retraining the plants to maximise space in the big tent, and then flattened out the lonely girl in the 3x3. Crazy enough the 4x4 still looks full by end of week, and the one by itself is getting close to filling the 3x3! This could be a pretty big grow by the time we finish 🤞. Have the solo plant running on the older Autopot valves with 6mm hose, and already had one clogging issue. Seems really early on, in past would take 2-3 weeks so thinking maybe I didn't have the lines 100% clean to start. Either way easy fix just blow out the clog and flush the lines with a liter or so and back in business. Always remember to flush the on/off valve as well as the main valve in the tray. Otherwise raised the lights in 4x4 to their max height (5" from roof) and took all the slack out of the cables to keep them off the lights. Adjusted the ties on last day of the week, but things seem pretty set now in the big tent so will just be widening out the lone girl once she grows a bit more. I'm sure by end of week that tent will be packed as well!

Gran genética cultivada de manera totalmente orgánica. Sin grandes necesidades ni complicaciones en el cultivo, pero a tener en cuenta la poca tolerancia al exceso de nutrientes. Buen desarrollo en crecimiento, gran ramificación con distancia internodal media. Impresionante el cambio a color morado fuerte en las últimas semana de floración y gran cantidad de tricomas en las flores. Fuerte aroma afutado y sabor dulce, con una buena pegada. Totalmente recomendable.
