Bueno bueno, pues empezamos la recta final de esta maravilla de planta. A tan solo 2 semanas como máximo para el corte, tienen un aspecto espectacular, han engordado perfectamente y están duros como piedras!! Una genética que volveré a prepetir

This little girl started her journey on April 4th with germination into a water glass and finished up on June 27/20 – Day 78 from germination. She was a fun grow and was very resilient through the whole run. She spent most of her grow time in a 20/4 light schedule. She formed nice frost levels and stayed to a very nice and manageable height of roughly 20” tall without topping or bending her main stem. She was not as fussy about nutrient levels and took them well. She does like her medium on the dryer side though. Small little auto bush of OG Kush crossed with Indica genes😃 She would make a nice a plant to run while you are vegging out some photos for 6 or 8 weeks as she is not very big in size but will swell up and yield decent weight👍 She was grown in a 3 gallon fabric pot with coco coir and maybe 15% perlite. She was fed salt based nutrients……..so sorry but they are flushed out and that is what I am more comfortable with. Focus on the early growth with microbes, fungi and kelp!! She was fed the normal pattern with pH being held around the 5.4 to 5.8 range in feeding. Then as flower approached, I gave the pots a more consistent look at the runoff numbers and she was running 7.8pH coming out of her!!!!! WTF. She stayed in her pot that she was planted in and fought this issue all through the rest of her grow. The pH issues started surfacing around week 3….as we headed into flower of course. Scratching my head for weeks, I ultimately didn’t change anything other than really low pH feeding going in…….below 4 idea. For weeks she had 3.9 water going in and still getting 7.8 running off. I initially felt it was related to cheap fabric bags so I cut slits in the very bottom of the bags that stayed and tried transplanting other girls into plastic pots, which it can be fabric pot issues but I am not as convinced anymore for this run that there was an issue there, wasn’t sure about giving her Magnesium on top of Magnesium and therefore did I mess her up good on the inside early on in week 2 idea, out of options I changed back to RO water and that seems to have solved my issues……I was using tap water that was not filtered this run🤬 The pH was high so that was adjusted but with the ppm being at 185 to 200 range I chose not to buy a filter and just dechlorinated the water only. I was tired of lugging 5 gallon water bottles in and out of the basement😃 That is a difference from all other grows…..silly for not catching this by week 4! So…….back to lugging bottles in and out of the basement😂😂😂 She really started to take shape around weeks 7 and 8 and formed a beautiful little cannabis plant and grew to 20” tall and roughly 18” wide. Main focus with her was to just perform LST on side branches and let the top go…….I wanted to just let her go and see what would happen to her main cola for size and height……plus I don’t do that…….I always bend over the tops on my grows so this was a little different for myself. She grew very nice leaves and a lot of them. This pheno had a lot of leaves to her and that is fine……its not really my first choice in characteristics of a plant though..…..so much more work at trim time……Green Poison XL Auto, SWS71, was a dream to trim👍 as a comparison!! She didn’t fox tail very much she firmed up her buds towards the end. The resin production was a little slower coming out in her but by week 7/8 she was getting pretty impressive😋😋😋 White and sticky!! She smelt of woods with citrus notes…..works for me👌 There were no issues at all retaliated to pests or bugs……I threw in a couple sticky traps but there weren’t any to catch. She handled the high humidity in this run great and there were no signs of any powdery mildew👍👍👍 She is a very stable strain from Sweet Seeds! Day 63 was last feeding, flushed for almost two weeks. Rezin and Liquid Weight still given for one of the weeks but the last week was plane water. In hind-site I think I should have hit her with some Flawless Finish to help get that last bit out of her. She did feed on most of her nutrients but some of the lower leaves were still more green that I would have liked. She was cut down on day 77…..11 weeks is about what I suspect looking at her in week 7…….this was roughly 8 weeks flower time……makes sense😃 She grew for 75 days and then I decided what the heck…….she needs a hole in her stem to stress her out😃 I didn’t try breaking a branch but rather drilled a hold into the base of her stem……something new to try out. I think I will try more holes next time….max 3 I think……then I want to run a couple with cracking their stems and see if there is a difference👍 I feel more in control of a drill and its accuracy vs bending branches and they snap where they want to…….anyway it was worth a try!!!! Worst case, it made it easy to hang her as a whole plant to dry😃 This girl battled pH issues all her life and as a result the buds were not where I would have liked them. There were not fluffy…..but here were not as hard as I would like for rolling joints, so the whole girl went to concentrates She dried for 7 day as a whole plant, 2 days more in smaller branches, then 1 day curing in jars before dry ice sift. She yielded 74g of dry cured buds, 2.65 ounces. Not bad…..I don’t think her buds would have gotten a lot bigger but they certainly would have had more weight if they firmed up…..grower issue, not genetics. So…..lets make some rosin from this girl🤩 The yields on this and making her hash a perfect colour are not what this process is about…..let’s get that out of the way right away……this is about another way to enjoy and consume my cannabis for my own relaxation and medicinal needs. Taking pictures of rosin is always a challenge…..it is always dark in the pictures unless you are using a nice DSLR to let more light in. Rather than making bubble hash with water, I just used the bags to make a dry ice kief from the buds. Unfortunately I couldn’t get a block of dry ice and had to use these cubes…….don’t like these as much because there are too many surfaces beating your green plant material and your kief goes green before long when shaking. Could have done it with out ice all together…..nicer hash but lots left on the plant afterwards that way so yield is low. Used two bags in this extraction, the 220 as the bag for edibles and the 120 as the bag for pressing rosin to smoke…..dry ice hash rosin!! The yield on this from the 74g of bud was 22.4g kief. 220 bag was 12.6g and the 120 bag was 9.8g. Not great I guess but I didn’t want to keep going for 4 and 5 minutes with the bags…..these were roughly 2 minutes with the 220 being 3 minutes on the high side. You can certainly see that the 120 product is more golden in colour than the 220 but since I didn’t crazy, the 220 is still a very nice colour. Last step on this journey was then to take the kief and make our rosin. I pressed product using 37um bags with the temp set at 160 degrees. All were done the same for the most part……roughly 4 gram presses, the same temperature, and the time. The first presses were 90 to 120 seconds. If a second press was done on the pouch, then it was at the same temp but for only 40 to 50 seconds. The yield on this was just shy of 7 grams…….6.77g…..roughly 30% yield from Kief???,…..roughly 9.2% from flower???…….would have likely done better right from flower😂 😂 😂 it was fun, regardless of the yield😃 Tasty rosin!!!! Can’t beat rosin for getting the true tastes of the plants. These numbers are absolutely due to my abilities with extraction.......sure don’t judge the genetics based on my returns......she is a frosty plant and will give great returns!!!👍👍 Several pictures show that, I hope!! So that will wrap up this diary for Sweet Seeds Killer Kush Auto, SWS56. Certainly give this girl some consideration if you like OG Kush and also have space concerns in your grow. She is beautiful frosty little girl with a punch. Certainly get the usual woody and citrus notes from her rosin and she has a lasting high. She helps to get get you going and willing to finally start cleaning that corner of the room you have been avoiding…….watch out though…..distractions😃……next thing you know 40 minutes go by and you are staring at a box of DVD’s wondering what happened to CD’s…….cassette tapes (the art of the “mix tape”), 8 tracks, vinyl……ALBUM COVER ART Baby!!!!!! Then its either back for another rip, or get your crap done because the next rip leads into even less work getting done😃😃 Great job as usual @Sweet_Seeds !!! Looking forward to the next one……Cream 47 photoperiod……actually, already done germination and a new diary coming👍👍…..compare a 3 gal pot to a 5 gal pot, or a fabric vs air pot, and see what my yield differences are?? Thanks for the read and greatly appreciate the comments Growmies!!!!! Love spending time on a forum for growers to help fellow growers. Much grower love and thanks again for your time, opinions, and suggestions🙏🙏🙏 Cheers!!

I can keep track of the plant sizes, how they grew, how healthy they were, how easy they were to grow and how good the final product is👍 every plant was given the same strength of GREEN BUZZ LIQUIDS and I'm keeping track of which plants were happy with the suggested amounts and which plants seemed to want more or less🤘 ALL THE AUTOFLOWERS ARE NOW CHOPPED. I chopped 22 photoperiods at 125 days of growing. I'm impressed with how good my mars hydro gear is. Always gets em nice and frosty and everything stinks alot. VERY HAPPY WITH GREEN BUZZ LIQUIDS. I've used lots of brands and this is my NEW favorite brand. And with it being vegan/organic, it makes it even better. Joints burn soo clean👍 The girls are loving their 8x8 MARS MANSION and THE 5X5 INLAW SUITE and everything is doing good and looking nice and getting bigger👍 They are all starting to finish now and the bud sacs are swelling and they are all getting nice and frosty and starting to stink ALOT.

The grow was going great till the air stone stopped. I got root rot in process and it hurt final size. Super stick, and strong smell or a earthy fruity scent. I had the polyploidy mutation in this plant. I started a clone and have a diary for it on here. I used a Spider Farmer SE5000 light, and New Level Hydro bucket. I also used hygrozyme.

30/12/21: final week of veg - the plants have responded better to the increased intake fan speed lowering the temperature overall. no more yellowing leaves. been on a dose of 0.5 bio bloom to prepare for flower. I have switched the lighting schedule today as they enter flower. the plants are responding well to the nutrients and the light - with tall stems and the topped kolas have sprouted well. I have added a carbon dioxide bag to increase CO2 intake.

Hi growmies well found, today the vadi are still full of water so no watering pheno 2 mimosa is demonstrating her hulk genes too bad pheno 1 can't do the same too much stress for her two feline attacks were too much even runtz suffered only one but in a too premature phase by the way yesterday while I was trying to make it open a little I patched it the plant shows that it is not elastic perhaps a little silica would do me good but I will use it in the next stressful event in another race I implemented on Monday when I watered green sensetion and sugar royal for the two mimosas that the small runtz and the zenzation are now flowering which is doing well even if in two weeks back it reacts well to the lst I hope it can reach large sizes in the next week and then start flowering when it wants for runtz and zenzation the usual mix remained, calmag 4mlxlt, rizotonic 40mlx10lt and whiteshark 2 spoon x 36lt ph 6.2/6.3 added the scrog net in which the mimosa is having a lot of fun I'm very sorry about how the other plants have suffered from stress, the feline demon has been banished from the room where the girls sleep but I won't give up, I'll bring the result home in mid-December, we'll see what nature and my ability are able to do have a good week and cultivation everyone thanks for the comments and likes never stop growing👍🏼✅

End of Week 9 of Flowering! I skipped Week 8 because I literally had no time for an update, but not much changed anyway. Temperatures spiked brutally - during Week 8, my growbox hit 32°C (90°F). To compensate, I dimmed the light to 75% power and raised it to about 60 cm above the canopy. This kept temps around 29°C (84°F), with occasional peaks at 31°C (88°F). Gotta say, the ventilation helps a ton, and I avoided any "foxtailing." Since mid-Week 8, I’ve cut all nutrients and only fed pH’d water at 6.2. The plants are still drinking, and under the 60X jeweler’s loupe, they clearly need more time. Most trichomes are still clear/milky, with very few amber ones—especially on the leaves rather than the buds. I’m a bit worried the heat might’ve delayed ripening. A good sign, though: the natural yellowing of leaves suggests we’re nearing the end of the cycle. The Sensi Stars (supposedly 8-week flowering time) still need longer, despite having the fattest, densest buds of the bunch. For now, I’m sticking to plain water and checking trichomes daily, hoping to chop some plants soon. Pics are below - though I couldn’t get decent loupe shots (blame my phone’s potato cam and the tiny lens size, lol xD). Shoutout to all you legends! Catch you next update. Peace! ✌️

Light schedule 20 hours on 4 hours off and the same with ventilation. Humidity approx 50 percent, water intake raised up 125 ml per plant per day. Fertilization continues on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday with Biobizz family and Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday bat guano and Epsom salt. This week will change that shit lamp and replace with Marshydro 600W. Day 46, 2 days no update all good they are flowering nicely waiting for the new lamp. Critical Orange Punch nicely developing and the rest of them is coming as well. Today I set the new 600W Marshydro. I also set the light schedule for 18/6.
