my dry and cure style is this: 4 days of hanging upside down to get water activity lower to around 0.6 in 50% humidity and 26 C temp (i know its a little high but we are in a hot summer right now and i cant get it lower even with air conditioner) and then after 4 days of drying i remove leaves and stalks, trim buds and move them to jar for the rest of their life :D . and in the first 4 days of curing i open the jar door and let hem get some fresh air in the jar for about 5 minutes and close the jar door again, after 4 days of curing like that buds are smokable but they will get better as they getting cured about 1 month. buds are one of the hardest as fucking rocks type of buds! very dense , compact , sticky , smelly , amazing at every aspect growing stage was 56 days and flowering stage was 75 days total (harvested tops at day 64th) the total weight of dry buds was : (plant #1 & #3 top buds 56 G + lower buds 22 G ) 78 G + (plant #2 top buds 47 G + lower buds 18 G ) 55 G + (plant #4 top buds 120 G + lower buds 67 G ) 187 G = 367 G

All going well. Only problem I have had is the big white widow got mold in a bud at the very top off the plant. Very strange

ok so everything has gone fantastic , no nutrient burns at all , and have been slowly creeping up the base nutrients , i have stopped the cal mag and now adding house and gardens bud XL at full strength these girls are now in full swing of flower the Cal mag has made absolutely no difference too the yellow colour of this blackberry so I suspect it is just how this strain is as meany diary's on here of the same strain are also on the yellow side , but it's certainly not affecting the speed of the growth of her , i also bought a new ph stick this week , i have found when PHing the feed bucket that its best too have air stones in the bucket , add all nuts and then ph but do not use the feed that day as if you check the next day the ph is off again so i left it 24 hours after i add more ph down , and it seems too make the measurements alot easier and stable , i have bent down the main stems " without damaging them onto my netting too A keep the canopy all the same high so my lighting is covering all plants at the same distance and also it allowed the side stems too reach up too , i also was sponsored another new led light by kingbo this week so have added another 600watt led too the grow , so now have two 600's and one 900watt , and temps are still fine sitting at 24c lights on and 19-20 off , so am pleased with that , I accidentally bend the main stem last week while I was putting them under the netting too try and control the stretch , luckily it did not crack or snap the branch at all and she didn't droop on that branch at all and has healed already , it may or may not be related but as soon as it happened the side branches thickened up too the thickness of the main stem , this plant has over taken the rest in size even being a full week too 15 days younger , it's certainly not ideal but it really does not appear too have slowed down the growth and may well go in my favour , this lady really did stretch out from week 4 into 5 and is showing no sign of slowing down , her side branches are very thick almost as thick as the main stem , her leaf production was minimal and I have only had too remove very few too expose the bud sites , the yellowing seems too be recovering now and most of the plant is green now , Update , Now gone a lush green colour instead of that horrible yellow , and the buds have already started too purple , she has also stepped up a gear with her nutrient intake almost drinking 6 pints since Thursday , She seems too have slowed down on the stretch and has so meany bud site scattered all over her with as the diary name suggests black roses everywhere , and note too any seed banks reading this if there is not a purple stain out there already called black rose now is your chance lol and Iwant a sample pack first kinda like the tester :) Now defoliation , as you can see they really didn't seem too mind at all being stripped and within a couple of days they had all replenished the lost leaves and even this week olive had to pull the odd few off as they have grown out , Method , well all info now is simple , Anything I cannot tuck under something that is blocking a bid site with shade I remove too middle or bottom , Everything else stays , I just stand above the plant and pull off anything covering the sites , it's really as simple as that , I see some strip them until there is nothing left on but a few sugar leaves , but for me didn't like the look of the plants , for me the growing process is just as much fun as the fruits ,

Huge week in the tent. Lollipopping. Defoliation. Redid the LST ties. Added height to the plants to level the canopy. Added the blumats self watering setup. The tent got a total makeover. They look healthy otherwise.

This is a tough one. But the greenhouse is in the trash.. 3 plants at 8+ feet dumped. Between the powdery mildew and now a spider mite infestation there is no way I will gift this to friends especially sick friends. It is all in the trash.... I still have Orinoco outside the battle goes on. There is no point to make medicine from bug infested or toxic plants. Please respect my decision. I will run both plants again. ..... this was a real tough thing to do. But it is what is right. I could have fixed the problems...... but it would haunt me. The whole point of the greenhouse was clean medicine to share .... I'm sorry I failed... I can blame everything.. but the responsibility falls back to me. So for that I'm sorry. Please realise I'm ok with my decision.... it is what is right. Life moves on... keep growing 👊

Hi Guys, we talked about defoliation in the last diary and we can say that if you are using scrog netting that this is the way to go more bud development in the top canopy and all the ladies are doing great and have a nice green hue and the leaves point happily towards the light just like we want to see happy healthy ladies am i right :) Talking about the lights above these ladies we have a 1000 watts of quantum boards (check out the second to last photo) this product is a powerhouse with a great spectrum (check the last picture) and it has amazing PAR numbers hope this helps if you are in the market for a new growlight in the bubblegun diary we have another great lighting option you should check it out Talk next week Stay safe, stay green, Nibameca

End week 3 plants still looking healthy. Removed couple fan leaves blocking bud sites. Temps getting hot outside in spring so tent temps have gone up but still in range to thrive. Humidity is mostly the easiest to control

I feel sorry for my plans this 2 weeks I haven't been able to look after them properly I've been working long shift with Christmas approaching there's no time for anything so I was pushing in a lot of nutrients into them and I caused a nutrients lockout .I have flush them out with just clean water at the right pH 6.5 and they are responding very well from now on I will continue to Baby them so they gave the best result possible within the circumstances of the plants. Thank you for reading I will continue to update have a happy grow

Hola así vamos terminando la tercera semana de floración de este seguimiento de clones y semillas , las encuentro bastante rápida para la formación de flores y pegaron un estirón bastante bueno , tengo una Sugar Black Rose ( la más alta del fondo izquierdo ) que se espigo más que todas le he realizado 2 cropping pero sigue de todas formas levantándose hacia la luz .- La producción de tricomas es bastante buenas y los olores son muy agradables . . . . Hello, so we are finishing the third week of flowering of this clone and seed monitoring, I find them quite fast for the formation of flowers and they hit a pretty good stretch, I have a Sugar Black Rose (the highest one on the left bottom) that spikes more I've all done 2 cropping but still getting up towards the light. The production of trichomes is quite good and the smells are very pleasant.

On some pics you can see the orange trichomes so its getting time for the harvest soon. At D45 we stop fertilizing, now they will only get tap water (-pH) for the last 5 days, after that they will get 2 days of darkness

For vegetative stage I kept the lights on for 20 hours and off for 4 and then at the first sign of trigger I set hed the lighting to 12/12 I used pre amendment soil so there was no need to add nutrients the plant was in a city slicker sub irrigated planter that I would refill when empty this was my first time growing in a sub irrigated planter and it most definitely will not be the last this planter rocks out to say the least only regret is that I didn't buy more of them as for the smoke report I'll try and do an update I'll be drying for 16 days at 60 degrees Fahrenheit and 50% humidity

I can’t wait to see what this week holds. This plant is one of the strongest growing plants I have ever had. Amazing strong structure. This week we should see all the branches stretch really good.
