Its been very hot these past days in Ontario and the outdoor grow loves it! Plants have been growing nice and tall, growing some fatty leaves, I wanna see how they grow without any human interference so I will leave them without training for now. The soil is still providing nutes for the looks of it, I have started spraying some natural homemade pesticide you can find the recipes on my Instagram @girlgoneweed (under the highlights) I have been spraying 2x a week to keep rodents, aphids, mites, and mildew away. *The video is a dark angel as well but this one I have it on my roof garden.* Thanks for following along, see y'all next xoxo

Hola!! Por aqui en el día 36 de flora. Ya se esta notando bastante el engorde en las flores y la resina que están generando es hermosa. El VPD me esta acompañando muy bien y por suerte el pequeño aire de ventana que tengo funciona perfecto :P . Ya se empieza a sentir ese hermoso olorcito a las mañanas que te motiva a cuidarlas mas. El ultimo riego fue con 891 ppm -1.7 EC, en el cual ya disminuí la dosis de la base Micro y el silicio Rhino a 1ml por litro, pero comencé a sumar el Overdrive en 1 ml por litro. Seguro en el próximo riego sigo con la misma EC y en la siguiente (6) aumentamos un poquito para después disminuir (7) Les comparto un video, espero que les guste y esta en buena calidad. Saludos che!! Aguante el cannabis.

👋 Here I am with 5 Nori cake seedlings, I want to grow 3 plants of this variety, I will keep the prettiest seedlings and continue the adventure with them🙏🌲 After a short week of growth I place my seedlings in their final 7Liters pot with a mixture that I made. I use unfertilized soil as a base. And I add organic nutrients from GreenHouseFeeding that I mix at the top of the pot (35Grams BioGrow 14Grams Biobloom) Then I water each pot with 1L of water. I use tap water. I lower the pH and sometimes add a little BioEnhancer😘 My Instagram 🌱❤️️ : https://www.instagram.com/hou_stone420/ ------------------------------------------ Equipment used : Light FC3000 Mars hydro. power 25% at 30cm Extractor 6 inch Mars Hydro. power 1/10. ON 24/24h No other fan this week Heating mat Romberg 95x95cm. ON half an hour every hour 👌 ☄️🌠🌠🌠🌟 Have a nice day buddies, thanks for your visit 🤩👋

This strain is very heterozygous. 4 seeds were started. The 4 phenos were very different. I saved 2 of those phenos for my arsenal, which is quite exceptionnal. I ususally save just one pheno from a strain. The Pheno #1 was mainly sativa (75%). Long branches. Lots of fluffy buds. The more resistant to mold, but it has to be with the fluffiness. The taste was cheesy and spicy, which has nothing to see with the 3 other phenos. Not a single ressemblance with ak-47 parents as well. It shares the musky undertones of the strain, but nothing else. That pheno is gone. Not enough potential. Terpene profile was deceiving, just as the cannabinoid content. The Pheno #2 has more indica in it (45% indica). robust and tall plant with dense heavy buds. No mold resistance at all. Biggest producer. The taste was earthy and musky with hints of wood. That pheno is gone. Not enough potential. The Pheno #3 is my favorite one. It reminded me of the good old Ak-47, with her flowery/sweet/skunky smell and taste. Pure nostalgia! Tall and quite robust plant with huge fluffy buds coated with trichomes. She grows pretty similar to Lemon Skunk if you know the reference. Great producer of top quality buds. So sticky! In my top 3 sativa for 2 years. The aroma is very close to the old school Ak-47: sweet, flowery and skunky. It tastes like sweet lemon on the inhale, with a sharp touch of spicy lavender and earth on the exhale. IMO, that is the pheno we want to save from that heterozygous strain. Backcrossing this one would be a very good idea. The Pheno #4 is just as interesting as my favorite #3. The only issue with this one is about mold resistance. Crazy compact and heavy budst! One of the most productive I’ve ever seen too. More traits of the Ak-47 in the aromatic profile, but nothing like the #3. On the structure side, we can immediately recognize the sturdy and bushy structure of Ak-47. THC content is very high too. I suspect the CBD content to be high as well. The effect is a mood elevation, with good focus and a deep body relaxation; a bit similar to what White widow does. The aroma is earthy and pungent. Very skunky and musky. It tastes very sweet and earthy on the inhale, with hints of skunk on the exhale. That pheno #4 expresses the best traits of the Ak-47 in its structure, while pheno #3 kept the aromatic profile.
