The heat wave has just passed, after 15 days of hell no serious problems to report, few burnt tips, some spots where the water has fallen on the leaves. My gorilla now shows a sativa-like leaf pattern. Huge plant, still stretching, cheesy flavor when rubbed. Stay safe Bros

Day 85: The last week! The dark purple fade looks gorgeous. Trichomes are mostly cloudy now with a few clear and an amber here and there. I plan to take her down sometime this week. My smell came back and I can confirm that she still absolutely reeks! Some fan leaves are drying and falling off. Day 91: I gave her 2L of water with nutrients a day or two ago. I cut off a bunch of fan leaves that were drying out. She looks ready now. The trichomes are mostly cloudy with some amber and a handful of clear. The very bottom buds could use more time, but everything else looks good. My plan is to chop her in 2 days. Tomorrow it's supposed to rain a lot and I don't want to start drying her in overly humid conditions. The temps here are between -1C and 13C so it's already going to be cold and I should be able to have a nice slow dry. She is a beautiful plant with a strong smell and lots of frost. I'm excited to see how the smell/flavor will be after drying. The buds feel very dense. They look mostly purple now, but I think that might just be on outside. Anyway, I can't wait to be able to try her... She didn't give me any trouble while growing and I would highly recommend her based on the growing experience. The smoke report will have details on the taste and effects. Happy growing!!! Harvest: I am writing here so that I can copy and paste it later into the harvest week. I chopped her on day 93. The bottom buds could have gone longer, but the tops were already showing amber on the buds so I decided it was time. Her smell is straight funk at the moment. I don't pick up the berries that I did earlier, hopefully that will come back. I trimmed off most of the fan leaves and left the sugar leaves on the plant for drying. The plant is hung up whole while drying in my tent. The exhaust fan is on, but the oscillating fans are off. I tied the side branches with separate strings to give them a bit of space and air between them. Starting environmental conditions are 14C and 55% humidity. Day 2: 12-15C / 57-62% Day 3: 12-16C / 56-61% Day 4: 12-16C / 54-60% Day 5: 12-16C / 59-66% (turned on the oscillating fan at the bottom of the tent for more airflow) Day 6: 12-16C / 56-66% (fan off when I saw it was down to 60%RH) Day 7: 12-16C / 59-65% (fan on again most of the day and night) Day 8: 12-16C / 59-64% Day 9: 12-16C / 63-71% Day 10: 12-17C / 63-74% Day 11: 12-17C / 61-65% Day 12: 12-17C / 63-70% Day 13:

Hello. This is the end of week 5 and the beginning of week 6 of flowering. I think, after this week, I'll "not" close the tent at night. I've read that around the 50th degree latitude a plant will stay in flower if it is kept in dark for 3 weeks and put out after the summer solstice June 21st. As long as the light is getting less at night the plants will stay in flowering... So, 1 week to go and I'll leave the tent open. The buds are bulking up now. Smells like tropical skunk in and around the greenhouse. Won a runner up prize in a Ganja Farmers photo contest and for my prize I'll get, 3 seeds of Kush Mints, 3 of Animal Cookies and 3 of Gorilla Gelato. 2 mostly indica and 1 hybrid. Seed descriptions said they are strong. Oh Boy... OK. Be Cool. Chuck.

Day 71 - Starting week 11 and sheโ€™s really starting to fill in quite nicely. Did a little bit more of leaf tucking and will be giving her a feed of nutes in the next day or two. Sheโ€™s got a really sweet smell to her right now. Day 72 - All looking good and not much new today. I did give her a feeding of nutes today and checked the runoff again and a tiny bit higher than Iโ€™d like, sitting at 7.1. Other than that, just removed a few leaves and tucked the rest. Day 73 - Noticed a couple leaves that have a couple โ€œrustโ€ spots on them so gonna try and get that fixed. Other than that sheโ€™s progressing nicely and will probably end op giving her some more water in 2 days. Day 74 - Nothing new happening right now. Iโ€™m just letting her do her thing and feeding her when she calls for it. I did rearrange her in the tent a little bit but thatโ€™s about it for today. Day 75 - The girl is still fattening up nicely but other than that, thereโ€™s not much else happening today. Sheโ€™ll be ready for some water tomorrow. Day 76 - Gave the girl a heavy watering of plain water today and the PPM is at 223 right now so next watering will definitely be a feeding of nutes. Sheโ€™s has quite some time left before harvest so not wanting to cut the nutrients yet.

11.8 - D50/F2 - Things with these two are swell. The massive leaf duo are on 12/12 now and separated into different tents on 11.8. I kept the smaller of the two in the 5x4 with ten other 5 gallon plants. Hoping this doesnโ€™t lead to too much crowding, but have started to set 14โ€ support rings to help with training. The larger one is in the 3x3 with four 3 gallon plants, including two autos that should finish well before the 9lb becomes unmanageable I mulched with Organic Maine Enriched Mulch so hopefully lose less water to evaporation, then dosed with a new product by NLS as an amendment to boost flowering. The ingredient list on this pack is amaze and you canโ€™t even begin to imagine how it smells haha. As Iโ€™ve said before, their products โ€œstank so goodโ€. 11.10 - D52/F4 - All defoliated and stretching!

Day 9 and she looks as you guys can see lol i mean to my eyes she just looks amazing, she is fully recovered and full on going like there is no tomorrow , she is praying for 11h strait non stop and i could not be more happy with the way things are running. For this week i will keep the same food regime as last week, man i love how my girls love Aptus Holland and how well they respond to it all ๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ™โœŠโœŠโœŠ I know she has a lot of leafs , but its only that hehehe since i clean the branches all up to the top before flipping her to flower leaving just the leafs to help them get more energy for this first 2 weeks of the flowering stage, after it i will defoliate the hell out of this lady best and let her focus her energies on but production, but for now i want her to stretch the most she can since she is not phenotype that stretches a lot ๐Ÿ˜… non or lees she is an amazing bud machine i believe she will do it once again hehehe As for the Light intensity i took 12 readings over my canopy to find out my PAR and the average PPFD is 1013 Umol/m2/s, for those of you that do not know the meaning of this, it means photosynthetic photon flux density , this basically the number of photons going arround for plants to absorve in a determinate area, in this case my 3x3 room Day 11 and there were toooo many leafs for what my eyes are use too so i decided to defoliate her, this will also help stopping the stretch since she is doing it more than her mother did and space is not something i have in this 3x3 area lol she is drinking like crazy, 5,5 liters day and increasing, curious to see how much will she be drinking wen in full flower. And she didnโ€™t care at all the fact that i defoliate the hell out of her and she just keep on going and praying like there is no tomorrow , amazing, but amazing phenotype from an amazing genetic, caps off to ZamneziaSeeds for this one, i was impressed with the first round and even more impressed day bay day with the clone I selected ๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿ™ŒโœŠโœŠโœŠ As always thank you guys for your love , your time, your support and it all, i fell blessed and i am truly thankful ๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿ™Œ All i grow is medicine for myself, for me and for my best friend with is me ๐Ÿ˜† nothing to sell, so donโ€™t even ask ๐Ÿ˜…๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ’š All info and full product details can be find in can find @ https://viparspectra.eu/collections/grow-lights DISCOUNT CODE 5% - DOGDOCTOR ( all store ) https://www.zamnesia.com DISCOUNT CODE 10% - GROWITGD ( just for seeds ) https://aptus-holland.com/ #aptus #aptusplanttech #aptusgang #aptusfamily #aptustrueplantscience #inbalancewithnature #trueplantscience #viparspectra #zamnesiaseeds #growerslove With true love comes happiness ๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ™ Always believe in your self and always do things expecting nothing and with an open heart , be a giver and the universe will give back to you in ways you could not even imagine so ๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ’š More info and updates @ https://growdiaries.com/grower/dogdoctor https://instagram.com/dogdoctorofficial https://youtube.com/channel/UCR7ta4DKLFMg2xxTMr2cpIg ๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ’šGrowers love to you all ๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ’š

End of another week and dang are these girls going! The alfalfa Ferment is definitely doing work down in that rhizosphere. It's pretty amazing how well this Ferment does for veging cannabis. I seriously cut my veg time down by almost half when I use it! That's the main objective right there, to be able to continuously flip into flower right after harvesting, and we're basically their now that we have everything dialed in. These girls will be getting synthetics next week. We're going to start them on a light feed of Athena blended then go from there. Thanks for stopping by and we'll see ya next week.

little clone lollipops still partying. Just hand watering ever couple days, or throwing one of the drip rings into the pot once in a while. I also am rotating the pot a 1/4 turn when I remember. Will probably move this out from under the shade this week cause I think they've gotten used to the flower lights and will bud soon.

Day 22 First day of the 4th week of veg and time to start training. Today I lightly defoliated the girls for the first time. I simply removed the first node from each plant and the second node on the left plant. I watered the plants with 2 liters of water (pH 6.4) right after pruning to minimize any shock. I'll give them a couple of days and then I'll top the right girl for sure but I'll see about the left one considering how much smaller she is. Last night I spotted one single fungus gnat in the tent. The first one I've seen so maybe the tomatoes did bring in something after all. I inspected the girls for any other infestation but I couldn't spot anything. I put up a couple of small sticky traps to check if the gnats are there and if they are, then out with the nematodes. I've had great success with nemos in the past so they are my go-to when it comes to fungus gnats. Day 23 So... I fucked up yesterday. I moved around some of the power plugs and forgot to start the extractor fan again after I was done. DOH! I noticed my mistake as soon as opened the tent today and was hit by a wall of heat and humidity. It felt like stepping into a jungle, hot and wet. I guess I need to regularly check the App which monitors my temps and RH. Gotten a bit lazy about it so yeah, that's when fuckups happen. After all, what is the point of having a remote monitoring system if you don't monitor it? As for the plants they are doing their thing. Not much to report. I found one gnat stuck to the left sticky trap. Hardly a huge problem at the moment but need to stay on top of it. I am hoping that the weather improves soon so I can move out the tomatoes and then hit the plants with nematodes. Day 24 Today was a busy day in the tent. I started with cutting back the cover crops as they were getting a bit unruly. I then topped and did some low-stress training to the right girl but am holding off a few days for the left one as she is a bit smaller. My girlfriend suggested that I'd save the top and try to turn it into a clone. I never considered it as I don't have any space really for a third plant but hey, since it was her idea I'll give it a go. This is the first time I ever try to clone so I'm kinda clueless and am just winging it as I go along. I'm not too worried though as this is more an experiment in seeing if I can turn the top into a clone with the means I have at hand. I cut some aloe vera and put the top directly into it. I then blended the aloe with some water in my mixer and now the top is sitting in that aloe tea. I have no idea what to plant the top in next. Maybe some peat moss (as I have some) and continue feeding it aloe tea until root appears...? ย It's all an experiment. lol For the low-stress training, I used some wire that I gently put around each branch and then attached the wire to a binder clip that is clipped onto the edge of the fabric pots. I also moved out some tomatoes out of the tent but swapped in some Bishop's Crown and Saltillo hot peppers instead. Finally, I watered everything with nematodes as I today found another four gnats stuck to the right sticky trap. Still, not a huge problem, and I was planning on waiting until the tomatoes and peppers are out of the tent but better to be proactive and nip the problem in the bud than letting it fester. I used 10 million Steinernema feltiae nematodes and I know that 10 million is maybe overkilling it but hey, as they said in Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas - Anything worth doing, is worth overdoing. Besides, I already had those nemos at hand. I gave each girl around 2.5 liters of water (ph 6.7). Day 25 Alright, so I almost died in a heart attack today as I opened my tent and saw several spots of white residue on the leaves - "Fuuuuuuuuu... Did I get Powdery Mildew now after that one day of high humidity?!" After checking more thoroughly it certainly didn't look like PM and then it finally dawned on me. It was simply dried nematodes as I yesterday had spilled a bit of water on a few leaves. Phew! Other than that, not much to report. The right plant looks strong after topping and I re-tightened a couple of the LST wires. The left plant is coming along nicely so I will top her in a couple of days I think. The top is chilling in a glass of aloe vera tea and later today I will put it in a peat tab which will go under a humidity dome. Day 26 Pretty uneventful as all I really did was to water the girls, each got about 2 liters of ph 6.5 water. The right girl is bouncing back strong after topping and the top itself is doing pretty ok, nestled between the girls, in a propagation tray at the back of the tent. It's quite cramped in my small tray but hey, that's all I can fit so let's see if it works out anyway. I also prepared some fresh aloe vera tea by blending an aloe very filet with a bit of water and then fed the tea to the top. I havenโ€™t seen any more gnats, not flying around nor in the sticky traps so letโ€™s hope that they are gone. Day 27 Nothing too exciting today. I gave the top a little more aloe tea, cut back the cover crop a bit to increase air circulation around the plants, and tweaked the LST wires a bit. That's it. Day 28 Today it was time to top and train the left girl. I also put this top in aloe tea together with the other top in the propagation tray. I figured that I might as well try to clone this one as well even though I have NO clue what to do with them in case cloning is successful. lol. I also started brewing some compost tea using the same ingredients as last time (worm castings, rock dust, biochar, lime, bentonite, neem meal, kelp meal) but as I'm planning to foliar feed this round I put all the ingredients in a large teabag. Helps to avoid clogging up the spray nozzle. I was hoping to put off watering until tomorrow as they are getting tea then but the girls were really thirsty so I gave each around 2 liters of ph 6.2 water. Oh, I saw another 3 gnats stuck to the right sticky trap so obviously, there are some still around but that isn't unexpected as the nematodes don't help against already adult gnats. In any case, the population seems small considering how few have been stuck to the traps and I haven't seen any flying around.

The tale of the Goddesses is ending. Through this grow, I have given tribute to matriarchs-my grandmother and my mother who have influenced who I am in this world. Iโ€™ve showcased their art, photographs, and their lifetimes. I shared our family history through old photos while also showcasing the art of Alphonse Mucha in the Art Neuveux style he created in the early 1900's. The femininity reflected in his art elevates women to Goddesses with their flowing hair and floral backgrounds. In the diary I indicated I wanted to be a healer in my younger years. I wasn't a medical professional by career choice, but I provide natural nontoxic solutions for cleaning and beauty products and have for my family and friends for over 25 years. Not only are the items healthy and clean, but they are also effective and save you money. And who doesn't want that? I added the song Woman by Iris Gold. Have a listen in you tube or amazon music. Shoot for the stars and may all your dreams come true. My cover for Harvest and Smoke report is Alphonse Muchaโ€™s poster for Job cigarette papers. This is one of the most famous works in design history. Taking its cue from a new kind of female beauty, its modern girl has hair with a life of its own. The tendrils look more like the floating tentacles of a jellyfish. This is in vast contrast to the style of the times when women wore their hair tightly pulled up on their heads. For most people, though, the Job poster is less likely to be associated with belle รฉpoque Paris of early 1900โ€™s, than the swinging 1960s. Its blissed-out smoker and trippy swirls made it an obvious choice for the bedroom walls of a later generation of freedom-seekers. In posters for perfume, beer, biscuits, bicycles, and Job Cigarettes (1896) he blurred the barrier between fine art and commercial art, between commerce and philosophy. The weekly diary covers I presented show Muchaโ€™s style - organic and ornate, graceful and dynamic, with curving, swooping lines and Byzantine borders, lettering, and frames. The iconic 'Mucha woman' had curves, flowing hair, pastel robes, and often a halo of light or flowers. His women burst with life. I have mixed emotions about my grow and harvest. My results indicate I have a lot to learn. This was my 3rd grow and I still have problems with over feeding my auto girls. wh For all future grows I will reduce any synthetic fertilizer to 1/4 to 1/2 the recommended dosage. Overfeeding caused clawing and canoeing followed by nutrient lockout. While I was trying to correct this problem, flushing for 3 weeks to get out the excess fertilizers and salts, the girls were already overmature and past harvest. Checking trichomes at 10 weeks, there were few trichomes and didn't see much more until week 12. I checked with my phone camera at 10x magnification every other day. I saw lots of clear, then clear and milky, then all milky but never did I see any amber trichomes. The plants began to reveg based on the King Crown buds developing (see pics in week 15). The CBG may have degraded to CBN since I was 3-4 weeks late in harvest. If that is true, I don't mind since I need sleep medicine too. I lost Circe at the end due to aphid infestation. Ater several power washing with the hose on jet, we could not get the bugs off. So, I chopped her and into the trash she went. I did only minor defoliation near the end of the grow but neither plant was very leafy. For future grows, I will defoliate on a schedule, do some stress training maybe fimming, lollypopping, and defoiliating. Note to self: when buying seeds, look for more growing information on the strain such as when trichomes are expected and days to harvest. Knowledge is power. On the flip side, my happiness comes from the completion of a grow the harvest was 57 grams of smoke and 26 grams trim was not the highest yield but workable for what I need. As I indicated in the beginning, my plan, in addition to enjoying the smoke, is to put CBG in my health & beauty products. So, you don't have to wait for me to make mine, I've loaded a pain salve recipe above from Emily Kyle for a CBD or THC. The recipe shown makes 3/4 cup but can be doubled or halved. I'm, so excited I have decarbed my CBG trim and will use to make this formula while the buds are curing. I will also include some Lemon auto which is 17:17 CBD:THC to give it some other cannabinoids. I'll also put the recipe in the recipe diary. CBG will go in the coconut oil I use in my toothpaste ( recipe loaded in recipe file) If you follow me, check my recipe diary periodically as I will add new food and beauty recipes in future grows. For my readers and followers, I express my sincere gratitude for all the comments, likes and views and thank you for responding to my questions. I always hate having to pick one answer because they are all good. Just know that I learn from every one's answers. In closing, this Grow Diaries community is the best. With all the love and positive vibes I received, I got overwhelmed at times. As this was my medical grow, many of you sent me good vibes and prayers for continued healing. I feel your energy and it keeps my frequency up. I have enjoyed meeting and chatting with all of you. I'll be starting my next grow soon so follow along with that one too. Sending you love and good vibes ๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ’ซ๐Ÿ’ซ๐Ÿ’š. Enjoy your smoke๐Ÿ’จ๐Ÿ’จ Happy growing ๐ŸŒฑand have fun๐ŸŽ‰

What's up Harvest day .. Honestly I would have left this beautiful Peyote Critical to mature a little longer, but unfortunately the environmental humidity got very high and I was struggling to keep it below 65% .. also because of this, the trichomes have their maturation slowed down a little. However, 10% are amber ... they will partly diminish later, if I do a proper drying (7/10 days) and a good cure of about a couple / three weeks .. So by eye I think I will get roughly between 29 and 32 grams .. We'll see ... I will perform a whole-plant drying, removing only the few remaining medium / large leaves .. It has some beautiful purple color nuances.. Super super sticky .. Perfume from good kush, with earthy notes, mango?, sweet but pungent ... In about two weeks I will clean the buds well, before putting them in the jair.. Ah and I used a led light of 205w .. but we need to divide the absorption for three plants of Peyote C. + 2 automatic LSD that were at the corners of the "Grow" (without mylar cloth) for two months + 3 Kush Cookies in the last two / three weeks .. I will update with photos ... Smoke test..about after November 15th .. Vape test..maybe in ten days.. It was nice and easy to cultivate this strain... I certainly recommend it for those who want try out the draws.. Lots of resin.. We get it.. I hope you enjoyed it.. Thanks for the time๐Ÿ™.. Have fun...do clouds.. ๐Ÿ˜„๐Ÿ‘Œ๐Ÿ˜‰. Update 7 days 25t ยฐ 60% ur, whole plant + manicure when not too dry yet + 2 more days in brown paper bag (open several times a day to move the flowers). This is one of those cases where in such a short time a strain is already good to taste..for example the other two peyote critical, with which the same identical procedure was done, now that they are in pot for the cure they do not have yet the scent that this already has, like a lots of strain I grow in past..anyway.. Vape test (mighty). 180/186/190 ยฐ taste really good..woody, mango and partly has the same scents that I found in Vanilla Kush(love it).. slightly earthy but the sweetest flavor prevails..also of something else but I can not distinguish really..very good... I thought I could find a taste more than kush "classic"..instead it is a kush but particular, more sweetness.. Quite relaxing effect, from good kush..this I feel that in particular it also relaxes the muscles very much, mentally quite concentrated but relaxed.. I underline that in the vegetative phase I did not give her any nutrients if I did not humus worm in the soil + the soil itself (light-mix).. I did three transplants ..the only liquid used at the start was Root juice..the last transplant, at the bottom of the vase I put about 1/4 of the vase, a super soil created a few months ago as a test, composed of volcanic rocks and other various "natural" components(you can read in first week)๐Ÿ˜Š .. Later I gave Melassa twice during flowering + two / three times macerated organic banana.. He had only 205w Black-Dog LED as lighting, but to be subdivided with two more of the same strain plus two LSD, also Barney's, plus another three Kush Cookies on the sides of the "Grow without walls".. The final weight of the buds is 16 grams of sun main peaks + 6 grams of popcorn buds... Quantity of really exceptional resin...top of the top..๐Ÿ”๐Ÿ‘Œ๐Ÿ”๐Ÿ‘Œ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜ โœŒ๏ธ

Hello. This is the end of week 5 and the beginning of week 6 of flowering. Had a big harvest last week so I didn't do a report... just wanted to finish and get out of trim jail. All the plants got a venue change. I moved them from the back to the front of this greenhouse This plant is doing good and growing well. It's 29*c in here today, but there's a cooler week forecasted. OK. Be Great. Chuck.

The plants keep growing and the first pistils have appeared a little bit more than one week after the 12h/12h switch. It looks like some of the leaves close to the fan received too much wind so I moved the fan to the other side of the crop to see if it's better, it seems to work. The Blackberry Cake branches grew much this week and unfortunately I didn't see that the LST strings were too tight ๐Ÿ˜’ Now I removed them but they left some marks on the branches. It already happened to me with previous grows but the plants recovered ๐Ÿ˜Ž It has been two weeks since the 12h/12h switch, I think I can expect some small flowers during next week ๐Ÿ‘Š Plants heights at the end of the week : ------------------------------------------- Blackberry Cake : 50 cm Jack Herer : 47 cm Cashew Kush : 56 cm
