First day of week 4 flower day 22- Took some shots of a few bud sites, that are looking well and that should start to frost up pretty heavy once in full gear. Increasing the EC slightly 1.6/1.7 around 800ppm for those that don't know. Trying not to overfeed but get to the sweet spot of tlwhat the plants want and require. Respectfully it is my first run with this strain and Breeder but nothing but good things so far. I managed to take some clones so that I can push the strain better the next run and incase I get a special pheno! But so far so good. The buds should start to go through a fattening period once the flower stretch is completely out the way. Will be back to report and show some more pics/videos as the week goes on. Stay tuned and follow my youtube and Instagram on my growdiaries profile

This is the 5th ILGM OG kush I've grown, the first I've tried to top. Now I know that I topped about 2 or 3 nodes to soon. But what I know from the other og's I've grown, buds will be fat and sticky and from the looks of her she is going to be all bud!!

Hello guys Welcome 🙂 Today we are at the end of week 11 from seed with this five , KALINI ASIA 🕉️🎋 Like you probably already know.. This diary it's for the Zamnesia Spring Cup 🏆 I'm growing all seeds Zamnesia has provide us for try to show how this strain can grow in different ways. The substrate will be the same light-mix soil mix with cocco and some one with humus The nutrients and the cultivation techniques will be different for each one So , I have reported down below what I do and I will do every week for the next few months.. The 5 ways 🌲🌳🌴🌵🎄 PS (Things I have and I still use in flowering , I have put for all five down below 👇, because are mostly the same) K # ​​1 🌿 {BLOOM n°5} Final height= 30cm Is the lady where I have use all the things ZAMNESIA was provide to us for free👌💯 ( I will spend more words about it when I post the harwest) _11l ZAMNESIA-POT _70g MONSTER-MIX _60%light-mix soil/30%cocco/10%perlite _mycorrhizae She and her sister K # 3 are mostly identical, maybe she's a little more low in heightnes but not to much The flowers increase in size day by day 🚀 Unfortunally this lady and K # 3 dosen't shows any purple-pink colors, like the other three components of the family.. But it's fine right this..for me is better this situation because I can compare the difference at the end 😉👌 She also starts to increase the trichomes production🔥 And a little vit of aroma is coming.. We will see The other things I have use in this last seven days I will put down below 👇 K#2 🌿 {BLOOM n°5} Final height= 30cm For this girl I have use different diet.. _11l smart-pot _Living Soil (my High-Brix formula) _mycorrhizae This one she's growing in my personal Living soil (High-Brix recipe) that I have use and I still use right now with her and other plants in different diaries.. And I think to continue to use it for a long time more Always comes out somnthing of 🔥 And to be honest , in the beginning of this adventure , I was sure that the Kalini Asia grow in to it can shows her true DNA And In fact , she's coming out purple-pink and with a very lovley and unique aroma 🤩 Like you can see in pictures , her leafs starts to decrease in color and they already becoming a nice yellow.. Auto flush , like as always when I grow in Living Soil 💪 She knows for imself what's the best for her.. I have just to watch and create the right environment.. But we will see better in a couple of weeks if my Living soil works right even with this amazing strain 😎 Like the other sisters , the micro life/nutrients/stimulator I have use in this last seven days I have put down below 👇 K#3 🌿 {BLOOM n°5} Final height= 35cm With this girl I have use.. _11l plastic-pot _20gMONSTER-MIX + 70g guano kalong + 25g kelp kalong + some organic nutrients/stimulator _mycorrhizae In the last few weeks of vegetation and the first two of flowering, she was appears most vigourous in growing that her two sisters in 11l pot.. But now she looks a little less bigger in buds size , but not to much.. She's almost identical in everything with her sister K#1 , but the nutrients I have using are in part different We will see at the end 😉 Things I have use this week down below 👇 K#4 🌿 {BLOOM n°6} Final height= 40cm The little one of the family..but maybe the most resinous for now 💪 Whit her I have using.. _5l air-pot _30g MONSTER-MIX _mycorrhizae Like K#2 and K#3 , lucky , she's showing some beautiful color Mostly dark pink , but I don't know if the pictures helps you to understand at the best how lovley she's This week she was increase a lot in a bud size and she also starts to smell amazing 😃 Difficult to describe Love it 💚 And she's probably the ones with the most trichomes density 🔥 I think she's ready in no more then 19/21 days , maybe before 📆 Other nutrients/stimulator I have put down below 👇 K#5 🌿 {BLOOM n°7} Final height= 60cm With this beauty one I have using _7l geotextile pot ( not completely full , about 5,5/6 liters ) _40g MONSTER-MIX _mycorrhizae I don't know exactly if what I will say right now it's the true But I personally think she's definetly the phenotypes to looking for The smell it's absolutly insane Very complex and intense , mostly on a fruit side with earthy tones I really hope to find a true Kush effect with unique taste The trichomes are not to much dense , probably due the high temperature But she appears almost healty enough and happy The leafs starts to comes purple , especially the ones upper for the most , and a couple of it already died after finish the nutrients inside Flowers are just awesome in my opinion Also , like the K#2 and K#4 , probably the pictures don't showing at the best how she's lovley But maybe I will transporter her outside in the last week , under the sun light , for show you her gifts 😉 I think she will be mature at the best in max 14 days I can't wait to taste her buds They are somnthing really special ❣️ Now I have reported over here the other things I have using in this last seven days , apart the regular water I have give every day for each ones 💧 K#1 / K#2 / K#3 _5ml molasses each one _2,5ml rinhoskin each one _2,5ml topmax each one _3ml sensizym each one For the other two I have always decrease a little bit in this weeks, but things are still the same But for K#5 it's from more then one week I have starting give her just regular water plus some enzymes.. And I will continue to do it for a couple of days more ,and then I will give only still water for the last ten days So , for K#4 this week I have using K#4 _4ml molasses _2ml rinhoskin _2ml topmax _2ml sensizym For K#5 _2ml sensizym _💧 Like the all ten weeks before also this one has passed easy Plants are always in happy moode and me with they 😄 For now I can say she's a really good genetics , no doubt 🙌 And if you find a dark pink-purple phenotype, do what I have not doing.. Clone it 💯💯👌👌 It's somnthing special and unique.. Vigourous , productive with beautiful colors and very complex terps profile.. In a few months I will definitely give you a better idea.. So , stay tuned 😉🤙 Thank you so much for stopping here 🙏 Hope you was enjoyed like me 😎 See you next.. Ciao ✌️ 🇮🇹

So, first of all, I want to say that I´ll be doing the diaries in a weekly updates way, instead of day by day, not only because it is less heavy on me, but I think it´s a better and more attractive reading. So, tell me if you prefer day by day or weekly updates please! Thanks! So, this week was pretty good, thricomes are looking pretty close to harvest. About 90% cloudy, with a little amber and clear. Watered with regular water and didn´t feed her. Flushed it with regular water on day 74, looked like it had still lots of nutes/salts buildup. And about flushing: I saw a really good study (I can link if it´s of interest for someone) showing that flushing isn´t really required, specially if you´re doing organic grows. It was really well explained and had solid arguments and comparisons, even tho, I flushed her in order to see if it really makes a difference. On day 76 when i first opened the tent in the day, she was all the way to the floor, almost hitting 2 tiny girls on the tent. Since she doesn´t had any strenght to support herself, I used some ropes to mantain her up. In resume: The week´s been really nice, she´s beautiful as hell with some purples and I´ve learnt some really good stuff as well.

Bonjour à tous les padawans et maîtres jedis stretch 15 centimètres (Stretch explanations more) EXPOSURE TO LIGHT One of the main culprits in abnormal stretching of cannabis plants is the lack of light. Plants that are too far from an adequate light source will respond by accelerating stem growth in order to get closer to the lamp themselves. Especially when there are many other plants. A lack of lighting can easily cause overcrowding in a growing chamber, reducing the steady progression of your crop and the distance ratio between your bulbs and your plants. To address this problem, be sure to provide enough light to your plants to prevent stem growth. At the same time, you should not position your lights too close to your plants either since this would also result in an over-stretching of the stems and in some cases, the loss of your crop. In addition to the distance between the light source and the plant, the type of light you will use also affects the size of the stretching of your crop. The orange and red lights encourage stretching and result in thinner, larger stems. And conversely, blue light stimulates a growth of thicker stems and a smaller size. When a species is ready to enter the vegetative phase and undergo its most drastic stretching period, metal halide lamps can be used to deter far too long stems. THE HEAT Heat is another essential element that can determine the stretch size of your plants during vegetation. Temperatures above 27 degrees push the stems to lengthen more and more and will propel the potential of sativas to push as high as possible. Heat lamps that are positioned too close to plants create an intolerable environment that will grow large, soft plants that will potentially wobble until they fall and lose flowers in its fall. OTHER CAUSES OF STRETCHING There are multiple variables that can lead to the stretching of plants beyond what could normally be expected of the plant. Environmental stressors resulting from transplantation (when a plant passes from one pot to another) can cause the plant to return to shock. This will eventually trigger a reaction causing a stretch. Cannabis plants that are not grown in decent conditions or do not receive enough nutrients will respond in a variety of ways and this includes stretching. Crops that are not spaced far enough apart are likely to stretch to sting the light to other plants. Due to extreme proximity, the plants will fight among themselves to reach the light, forcing them to expand as much as possible throughout the crop. HOW TO CONTROL STRETCHING DURING FLOWERING Stretching during flowering, you guessed it, takes place when you move your plants from the vegetation stage to the flowering stage. This is a completely normal reaction, as your plants are preparing to bear the weight of their heads. Stretching of a plant at the beginning of flowering varies widely; some plants can double in height while others grow only a few centimetres. There are, however, two main variables that can give you at least an idea of how your plants are stretching during flowering, and how much. Here are these two variables: Variety: Genetics has the greatest impact on the size of your plant. In general, sativa varieties stretch more than indicas and tend to develop long, slender stems. Light: Some lights, such as HPS, are more likely to encourage stretching. In addition, great distances between your canopy and your lights will cause the plants to stretch as they try to get closer to the light source. Stretching during flowering usually lasts the first two weeks of the phase. To minimize stretching, keep your lights between 10 (for CFL) and 30 centimetres (for HID) of your canopy. Finally, choose indica varieties if you have a smaller growing space. HOW TO AVOID STRETCHING In many cases, you can expect your cannabis plants to stretch during the flowering phase. Keeping that in mind helps to make a plan in case your species ends up growing much more than you could have imagined. If the information is available, get information on the standard size of your species and compare it to the size of your growing space taking into account the necessary distances between the bulbs and the plants. TRAFFIC While outdoor crop operations benefit from natural air to naturally limit stretching, indoor crops must assume the maintenance of air circulation within a confined space. Basic ventilation is enough to help the cannabis stems strengthen and become thicker rather than too high. In this way, the plants continue to grow vigorously without reaching heights and at the same time, your tolerance ceiling. MANUAL INTERVENTION For growers who want to get their hands dirty, there are physical procedures that can be done to reduce stretching. Similar to the natural effect that the wind has on cannabis plants, manually bending the leaves and stems will cause tiny cracks in the plant's tissues that will cause the plant to focus on regenerating its wounds instead of its vertical growth. THE TOPPING Topping is a form of manual intervention on cannabis to influence its performance, shape or size. In essence, topping is a process in which a new node is cut, growing from the plant to reduce its size and create a "v"-shaped notch that will eventually form two heads. Topping may be an effective measure to combat stretching, but it is important not to do so when the flowering phase begins. In most cases, an abnormal stretch of cannabis plants will not completely destroy your crop. In fact, stretching can indeed help increase your performance. For growers with a growing operation large enough to contain tall plants, stretching can increase the total yield of a species with more vertical space for head formation. In both cases, stretching can easily be planned in advance and there are multiple solutions to help you with this problem which is all too common.

Good harvest and excellent buds. Buds are loaded with a lot of THC, which provides a powerful multifaceted effect, combining daytime high and relaxing evening stone. I like to smoke this kind and relax while watching TV or playing cards. This strain is easy to grow and I have not had any problems or overdose of fertilizers. In the fourth week, the plant has more than doubled its growth - up to 30cm. I did not change the main indicators of the microclimate, but again slightly corrected the nutrition scheme: I added NESY KOKO 20ml to 5 liters of water. The bush looked healthy, strong and the first signs of pre-blossom began to appear on it. Flowering began on the 45th day. The plant was stretched out at a frantic pace - almost 4 centimeters a day. Thus, by the end of the 7 week, its size was already 45 centimeters. With the beginning of the eighth week, the elongation of growth stopped. The final height (along the center line) was 60cm. I decided to shorten the light period - now it was 12/12. I started use HESI PK 13/14 HESI BOOST.( once a week) At 9 weeks, I started to gradually defoliation. The bumps were very heavy and dense, so I gently pulled them to the center cola, as the side branches might not be able to handle the weight. From the 11th week on, I stopped feeding the plant, giving it exceptionally clean water for flushing. The trichomes began to turn cloudy and signaled that it was time to harvest. By this point, I had completely removed the foliage from the bush - everything was ready for harvesting. I dry cut buds in the same grow box where they grew. I haven't tried these buds yet. I was pleased with the quality of the strain. The center kola, as well as the side branches, gave me an excellent harvest. As for growing, I did not experience any difficulties. I recommend using a charcoal filter when growing - the variety is very aromatic. After drying and curing, I will take a sample from the finished product. On the way out, I got a first-class, top-quality IndiCA. The taste is dominated by pine woody notes. The effect has a powerful relaxing effect and awakens a brutal appetite in me. I like to smoke this kind and relax while watching TV or playing cards. Thanks to sponsor HESI for nutrients I got this report. I am very pleased with the result. The whole cycle I had no problems with the growth. In the future, I ll sure to use their further line of fertilizers. I added fertilizers according to the table from NESI. 1. The level of PPM is relatively low and it is large 2. The PH level was corrected automatic and I have a video about it. 3. Due to the content of B vitamins and natural sugars, the flowers grow naturally and fast. 4. NESI complex was enough for full grow cycle. I did not add any extra food. 5. The end product is easier to clean as the PPM level is low.

BWiz aka sour wiz is doing absolutely great. Not a single complaint or problem. Really pumping out a stank. (My Skywalker og is harvested. Drying and curing. Once it’s finished I will update that journal with pics and info. So far so good. Def dried out faster then I’d like but hopefully the cure saves my ass a little.)

Ultima semana de vegetativo. Fueron 7 semanas y unos días de la Muse en 18/6. Agregamos MadGrow Algas foliar. Pasamos dos plantas afuera a florar así le damos un poco mas de espacio en el indoor. Quedaron 5 plantas total, la Muse central, 3 esquejes de Portela y una Hulkberry. Pusimos la red de SCROG, acomodamos las puntas y buscamos que ocupe todo el espacio. Luego de unos días que se acomodaron las pasamos a flora 12/12. Arranca el segundo capitulo 🌸

Grow diary 11 stage 7 Day 61-70 She has come on a bit this last 9 days. Showing Iron deficiency in the tips but that's probably due to over watering a while ago. She is the 2nd farthest along.
