***Note that I started to count the days when I placed the seeds between paper towels. The seeds were planted 3 days later and sprouted from the ground 2 days after being planted. D80 (13/05/2021): I'm looking at the trichomes every other days. Glue Gelato is starting to show amber on top buds. No amber for Banana Kush and Gelato. This time I will chop them all at the same time so the one I will rely on is the Glue Gelato. As soon as she is ready, I will harvest them all. Banana Kush and Gelato would probably need more, but in term of logistic, I need to harvest all my plants at the same time. D83 (16/05/2021): Not ready yet. I'm checking trichomes closely! 😬 - Light: the lights are at 100% and at 12 inch form the plants. - Temperature: during the day: 24-25C ; during the night: 20C. - Humidity: the humidity is maintain around 46-48% all the time. - Air circulation: There is an oscillating fan on the ground, one fixed fan pointing on top of the canopy and one fixed fan to help cool the lights. - Water: I gave water every other day or when the ground feel dry or the pots feels light. - ***IPM: I never mention it but I'm using nematodes pouch as an integrated pest management. I had trouble with pest in my first grow and I learned from it. That's the only thing I do for pest and of course watching closely and regularly at my plants 😊

I made these seeds myself, letting the Male pollinating the Female in the same tent. I dropped pollen with a paintbrush on 2 different occasions, then shook the male over the female a couple times as well. Harvested most the seeds after the female plant died of thirst, around Bloom Day 65-67, but some earlier around Bloom day 53-55. These seeds were soaked then direct sowed. Originally using 6 seeds but settled on 10. Success germination rate of 100%. Bred by Dark Horse Genetics, purchased Chem Berry D from Parkland Flowers then reproduction by moi. Who knows where this project will go. I collected a whole bunch of seeds, they seem to be very healthy.

I’m watering the 7 girls (minus Trainwreck 1) every other day with 15+ gallons of R/O water & week 4 bloom nutes between 6.2-6.5 PH and 1100-1500 ppm. Every third feeding is just water with molasses Sept.. 7 the day started with 15+ millimeters of rain and wind gusts over 50 km/h. A couple of girls got blown over but luckily no broken branches. Time to start tying down these pots geez. I was checking up on Super Skunk auto #2 while she’s been drying and unfortunately bud rot has taking over most of her so the entire plant has been trashed. FAK!😢😢😢😢😢 Sept. 8 it's been overcast and humid all day and noticed some more powdery mildew on some of the girls. 😩 Unfortunately temps overnight have been in the mid to low teens celsius which is not helping Sept.9 mixed a new concoction of 3 teaspoons baking soda & 1 teaspoon vegetable oil to 500 ml of water and carefully sprayed fan and sugar leaves trying best to avoid bud sites. Sept.10 powdery mildew seems to be under control although the baking soda concoction burned some of the white hairs on a few buds. Trainwreck 1 is on her final week of nutrients followed by a long flush. Sept.12 the last couple of days have been cooler than average and somewhat breezy. The girls are looking healthy and the colas are starting to put on some serious weight so I added a few more bamboo stakes and a bunch of ties for more support. 👌😁👍 Sept.13 started the day with almost 15 mils of rain (that's about 1 inch for you non-metric peeps)😄 Colas are getting way heavy😲 A couple more branches snapped on Blue Fire 2. Man I can't catch a break. I hope it doesn't stress her out too much. 🙏 Thanks for stopping by, hope to see ya next week👉 Cheers and happy growing👍

This is a great strain from a great seed company in Canada, 34 street seeds. I have had great results from germination to harvest with their strains and these Cookies are no different. Nice tight nugs, some great tasting hard hitting smoke 💨 They grew easily enough, no disease or weirdness that couldn’t be solved by proper NPK. This would be a great strain for beginners looking for an easy harvest, with some good bud to show. I definitely did not maximize the potential of this strain this go around, but I still have 2 seeds from the 5 and it will make it back to my garden again. ❤️🇨🇦😎💨

Das Blatt Blüte Verhältnis war sehr sehr gut! 👌 Ich habe die Pflanzen dieses Mal nicht komplett getrimmt, sondern mit Zucker Blätter aufgehangen um ein schonenderen trocken prozess zu bekommen und ich Maniküre die Pflanze dieses Mal erst wenn sie trocken ist das verhindert Verletzungen der Pflanze die ein zu schnelles austrocknen zu Folge haben! Es ist mehr Arbeit weil man die Pflanzen Doppelt und dreifach in der Hand hat aber es lohnt sich, ich habe die komplette ernte fertig getrimmt in ein Cvault 21L für 2 Wochen Fermentiert mit einem 62 Prozent boveda, ich habe jeden Tag gelüftet und jeden zweiten Tag muss man es wenden vorsichtig! 👌 😊 Und raus kam richtig Premium gras ♥️♥️♥️😁 The leaf to flower ratio was very, very good! 👌 This time I didn't trim the plants completely, but instead hung leaves with sugar to get a gentler drying process and this time I only manicure the plant when it is dry, which prevents injuries to the plant that would result in it drying out too quickly! It's more work because you have the plants twice or three times in your hand but it's worth it, I finished trimming the entire harvest in a Cvault 21L for 2 weeks. Fermented with a 62 percent boveda, I aired it every day and every other day you have to turn it carefully! 👌 😊 And out came really premium grass ♥️♥️♥️😁

Honestly it feels to me like they took a couple finos of one plant and that's what they sold you. Couple of the plants came out a real fruity smell a couple of them came out a real dark gassy smell, what's crazy is I did the animal cookies and kept them separate and then I did the space cookies and kept those separate and one of the animal cookies and one of the space cookies turned out fruity and then one of the space cookies and one of the animal cookies turned out dark gassy smelling. That's why I think they just threw in a handful of phenos and called them whatever. Ordered from cookies/ lemonade for next crop. Better genetics better crop. I used LED for all of this made by Vipar Spectra the xs1500. This grow had nutrient lock out at one point hence the weird colors had to flush. Happy growing everybody! Also anyone looking into emerald harvest I highly suggest it It's the closest thing to all natural while still providing all nutrients. This was all grown in soil so I would advise not to use as much and don't mix brands, Stick with one whole solution and try using coco, much better results in my opinion faster nutrient uptake. Coco is the closest to hydroponics without having to water constantly.

Week 6 down and the OG Kush has been moved into the big girl tent to start her flower cycle. All 8 tops are fairly even and even throwing pitils. Leaves are getting a stronger, skunk aroma which has me very excited to smell the terps on the flower. Maintenance was minimal, just watering when light. Side note, I missed a day on pics...my bad 😊

2020-07-24 (Day 129) So this thing is just way bigger than I anticipated! I think within the next two weeks I’ll have to add another level to the SCROG. Right before I add the next layer I will do a heavy defoliation To ensure I’ll have good airflow come fall. No water, no nutes, this is the easiest grow ever! Less than a month and this net of purple donkey dicks should start forming! 🍆 🍆 🍆

She's an octopus full of very stinky sweet nuggets man!. I'm in love with this black cherry punch #1 she's in a 30l pot and her performance has been amazing. Very happy with this lady. The aroma of the flowers is suuper sweet very like cherry and like strawberries. Such a pleasure to grow this Cherry pie 🥧🍒 cross 🔝💎👨‍🌾 PD: I had to tie some of the colas cause they were just Fallin cause of the weight of the nugs. A set of 2 branches broke because of the weight of the nuggets so I chopped it down the 2 colas and put them in the drying room.

High Growmies, die Blüten haben angefangen an Volumen zuzunehmen sowie die Harz Produktion an zu steigern. Was die Harz Produktion betrifft bin echt begeistert sie wird an manchen Stellen so dicht das es leuchtet. Die Terpene sind nicht von dieser Erde! Sowas süßes und fruchtiges hatte ich noch nicht!

intercalaré agua-nutrientes la próxima semana pero con un riego menor, debido a que percibo que la planta ya no está tomando tanta agua. La última semana (espero que sea la semana 15) no aplicaré nutrientes y luego la planta tendrá de 3 a 4 días sin riego para proceder cortar y secar.

I always find it hard to say how much water they are taking because the whole auto pot thing. It would be more useful to maybe have an option to be able to change the unit because it would be way easier for me to say how much water has been put in the res during the week - sometimes even that’s hard to remember for me! Aaaaanyway, things are going fine in the grow - I turned down the light just a tiny bit as the pistols were showing signs of having too much light and they were just looking a little bleached out, so I turned down the light to around 80-90% as well as I think I raised it a little bit also. It’s much harder keeping everything stable in such a small space when I am used to having a room to use but oh well, it is what it is - I am really lucky / stupid to be doing this one, however, I also went into the grow knowing I may have to kill her at any moment - dependant upon visits etc. I know photo growers always say there is no difference in speed between autos and photos but there is a couple of weeks in it most of the time - at the very least. I tried it, my last proper grow I selected all fairly fast flowering photos (not those photos that have been bred with autos to make them quick but just generally fast flowering plants) and it still took longer than my longest auto has taken and it annoyingly Hermes so had to turn into hash coz it was super annoying.) but that’s all in the past now… So I haven’t had to resort to using my AC yet but I did get a 1/4 of the price knocked off because it doesn’t work with the app properly and that’s basically what it was sold on! Don’t go to klarstein, people! She’s def been stretching for sure but I remember this being a really squat plant anyway and I have also trained it in a bit of an odd manner so that it grew outwards with a flatter canopy - I wouldn’t top in future. I don’t really know why I did - maybe because I always have (for the most part) but I think she’d have grown taller and had bigger side branching if I hadn’t but having said that it is pretty much impossible to tell! Unless you do an A/B test - which I obviously don’t have room for! In the next week I am hoping to see her get really hairy and hoping to have to attach a carbon filter - as that would mean she’s happy and I’m going to get some dank. With regards to expected harvest - I genuinely have no idea. She averages at around 2.5z/plant going on the info put into grow diaries and that it about what I got last time - I don’t think I ever weighed it tbh coz I grew it just to turn into rosin. Having said that, it is a totally different set up and the first time I am using this light, so I’m not sure of the capabilities of what is probably a 120-140w light - now I have dimmed it down. I mean, I guess if she was starved for light I wouldn’t have had to turn it down so I’m confident it can produce sticky buds. I will also turn it up to full power in the last couple weeks. She’s meant to be a 10 week or 70 day strain - and I hope that is true because I am going on holiday in early July so I can’t have her going on and on and on. She will have to be cut when she will have to be cut - and maybe hung whilst I am away with the ability to control the environment over Wi-Fi (and probably a camera). Iv just looked at dates and actually she can go on for 13 weeks and so it is all good - she should still be drying by the time I go there and should be ready for me when I get back - I’ll be doing a dry trim as I always do just because it slows down the drying process even more - although actually to be fair the main reason I used to do that was I didn’t have seperate climate control for drying and couldn’t use the tent as was on a perpetual grow. This time I’ll be able to set it tov 60%/60f and hopefully keep it there for a full couple of weeks. Obviously I get rid of big the fan leaves and also chop it into smaller branches but other than that I prefer to do it all dry - saves your choppers for one thing!
