Harvested.

Today I decided it’s time for more wattage in the tent. It is going to be cold next couple of days. It also looked like they can handel more light. I am only on the 185hlg the other one will be kicked into action when we reach flowering.

Oooooh man it's been a while So this season has been a hectic one and as life goes we can't spend all our time doing the things we love Gonna be a short update of the last pics I got in my gallery as my notes on some of the strains I tried out for the first time are a mess atm Tortoni by @Totemic Easy to grow - I struggled to keep it around the size I would've wanted; side branching can easily get out of control and plant will definitely need supports/ties if you plan on growing it a decent size - I'm really bad with picking out specific terps but I can definitely say it's terpy AF. Plant #1 - Plants #2 -

Almost end of week 8, still waiting some ambers…

Outside plants looking nice and frosty, much like our weather at the moment. I may do this more often, veg indoors then finish up outside. Maybe do some Indica's next, they're generally better in the cold. Indoors not doing badly, despite clawing. Needing to tie a couple up to prevent falling over. Next time I'm going to get/use a net and actually spend some time shaping the canopy. Looking at between 8 and 10 weeks flowering time, which means they'll start coming down round end of month.

This isn't related to this thread - but I did a open pollination with my Higher Primate pack from Bodhi Seeds (yes I mixed pollen from all the males together before brushing it on them) I hit it super early as I could not wait - it was pollenated indoors at a buddies house, I just have them over at my place in a little hot house till the beans are ready they are in like 2.5L pots Edit : 4 males and 5 females were used will make a thread once I got all my shit together

That is highly likely man. Both points. Guess that i was caught up in that "mystery strain" fantasy and forgot my logic at the back door haha! Will still monitor this soldier.

Slowly but surely.

Auto's doing what Auto's do

Welcome to the diary of my 3rd grow (technically)! After a great 1st harvest I popped some Auto seeds by a local breeder. It failed terribly. Think I'll be sticking to photo's for now haha A great friend and fellow member of the forum felt sorry for me having seen this, convinced me to let them go and gifted me 4 plants he had in Veg. 3 of which were cuts from my last grow. (Thanks buddy! @CreX) So in this diary we have 4 plants, 3 clones of pheno #3 from my last grow (Deluxe Sugarcane) and a Bananium, all from In-House genetics. Super excited for the fruits of this one! As you can see below, all 3 plants were at different stages of life and so required a bit of a change in the way I grew these. (Sorry for the bad picture) I went out and got a SCROG net, this seemed to be the only way to end with them all "Somewhat" level. I'd just keep tucking the larger 1 until the smaller 3 were able to catch up. The Bananium was not stretching as quick as id like, thats the most-left plant, raised it with a plastic bowl I had in the kitchen and flippped shortly after. They were left in Veg for a month, weren't exactly the happiest plants when received, so was happy to see it all sort itself out once put in bigger pots and given some food. I'm still going with BioBizz nutrients, in Veg I switched between Bio-Grow and Fish Mix and used both alongside Bio-Heaven. Sticking with 50% strength for this grow, and have been watering at a PH of about 6.3-6.6. Having a slight pest issue this time around, I believe they're fungus gnats, opinions on them seem to vary but I'm managing with them it seems. Trying different ways to get rid of them without the use of pesticides as I have just entered the 3rd week of flower. Here's how they're looking now, will try update once a week from here. My 2nd net looks super sloppy, it's too big and doesn't make for good pictures, but here it is.

Howzit growers! I've been observing an extremely hardy plant thats been growing in a certain location for the last year. This plant seemed to survive the whole year, maybe even longer before i started noticing it growing randomly in a private estate. No care given and only rain water as far as i can tell. Very dark green, compact structure and most importantly, what sparked my attention was that there still is no sign of flowering. Could this be an original landrace strain from the Zim/Mozam builders that dropped a seed perhaps? Will take a pic soonest and post. Don't want to draw attention to the plant

Stormtrooper Chocolate Jedi by @Bay Seeds (I hope I remembered the name correctly) Plants were a bit fussy at first and I just couldn't keep up with feeding them, interesting smell, can only describe it as funky in a good way I forgot what plant this was, it is one of the strawberry crosses though So unfortunately the strawberry crosses got bud rot and I spotted it to late ..... so uhh yeah

Velvet Skies x Confidential Cannoli Super easy to grow plants + fast finishers 6 to 8 weeks (I had one plant that I felt 9 weeks was the sweet plant) - overall they did well, rain got to them a bit late flower and I did end up having to remove a few branches due to bud rot. As mentioned in my other thread - notes are a mess so uhh here's a little pic dumps

It is possible that a light shines on it at night this preventing it to flower. Very kak soil preventing it from growing big.

Have heard a few stories of impossibly large cannabis plants and have personally seen a number of large cannabis "Trees" (3-4m tall and wide/25cm dia main stem) that seem to defy their standard cannabis genetics. Its difficult to think that they grew that large in 1x season, possibly the plant revegged naturally from the previous year?

I also thought that it could be male but not even any sign of male flowers. This plant is getting full sun and flowering was supposed to be triggered by now. Ruderalis perhaps with a continuous lifespan? Haha if that even exists...Im just speculating for i've never seen a plant going for over a year without flowering at all.

When i get regular seeds i make my own seeds. Right now i buy the seeds. This batch is Nirvana. 25 seeds per 1.2x1.2 area. Had 96 from 100 to pop and sort out depending on growing strength. Full tent, want to see if i can reach 1.5kg dry per square meter. Doing my homework for the coffeeshop i want to open when legalized, see where i stand, what my climate control can handle. New location, had to build setup new.

Pricey but COA certified and Its breeding quality cbd genetics.

We're in the final stretch here! Past the 8 week mark, watching the trichomes for chop day. I'm loving the colour this cold weather brings. Seeing the 2 strains react in their own ways to it is interesting too! The Bananium has me really excited at the moment, rather sad though as I wish I had let this girl get bigger. I won't be harvesting much Bananium from this tent, it was the smallest plant in the beginning and could not compete with the stretch of the Deluxe Sugarcane. Overall I'm happy with the turn out. Growing for myself means I get to smoke all this beautiful bud, and boy am I happy with the product! In case you're wondering, the smaller dark plant on the left is Bananium, the other 3 are all Deluxe Sugarcane. Very easy to tell the difference in pictures. Let me hear some comments, things I could maybe improve on for the next grow, I am still such a noob at this!

@Naughty.Psychonaut, yea probably right, but it's only some of them, and not much I can do about ot now. It might be the medium, or the fact I use same feeding throughout veg and flower. The crystal's are looking good though, and no signs of PM, which is my main goal for this one. I'll add a couple of blocks of coco to the substrate for next grow, and maybe just use the greenhouse powder on veg. Need to try some of the 'flower power' nutes now available.

What's up man. I am doing several different things with trim and fluff. I have started pressing some of the fluff through 90micron bags, not big yields but not bad in colour. I haven't had the time to press everything or wash. I have only done 3 presses and smoked up the first ones. I did however use a 160micron sift screen and ran all my trim over it. Got a fair amount of dry sift hash which I also pressed with a 37micron bag but my yield was not great. I got just over 10%. I think I prefer what comes out after a wash and then pressing. I have gotten 40% before out of pressing bubble hash.

When you start your regular seeds outdoors this time of year they will almost immediately start to flower. If you have a lot of regular seeds, this is a good time of year to start them outdoors in 1L pots if you simply want to hunt phenos. You can spot the males much earlier. We spotted these 6 females this morning, repotted and moved them to the tent to veg.

Goodmorning all, just a update from the plants, they are going well. I mistakenly left the irrigation running and flooded all plants so they havnt been gettin anything, didn’t do too much damage luckily, will try get the plants out soon for better pics and updates.

Week 10, they are coming down this weekend, I can’t stand the bugs. No bud damage, so I should be happy.

Alright. This has started much later than I anticipated. But seeds have been soaked and some are in the pots already. The amnesia haze did not make it. But @Totemicgave me some replacements yesterday. Gorilla Cookies and wedding cheesecake from fast buds. We will see which of them make it. The Sour Apple from HSC is up and running a new one in the mix. It was how ever germinated first.

Today I harvested the two ZxP and four KmintZ. The KmintZ had some interesting colours on one or two branches that I will try get better pictures of during the day.

Here we are on week 3 One control plant is massive and the other one has been topped of her soul, then both experiment plants are growing fire

Week 8

Plants are in 2 weeks flower now, experiment plants upfront, control above and to the right. This experiment might finish outside.

The end of week 4. Shaping up quite nicely. Wish I had got the canopy more even but I'll learn from that! Going to take it a bit easier on the nitrogen me thinks, tips curling on quite a few of them. They need water tonight, pics taken while ladies were thirsty. Bananium: Deluxe Sugarcane: Tent:

Aaamd done. Sheesh. Trim jail is real. Not sure I’m a fan of big plants, much prefer a 1 hour trim every month. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Week 7, the sherbet crasher has definitely been in the tent way too long, It should have been cut down long ago. However the plants are nearing the end so just going to wait a few more weeks. As for the others, I cannot wait for the rerun. And then this was actually about the soil recipe, I’m happy with the recipe, just would possibly have done a few things differently. This is just something I’m pondering as some plants were happy in the soil and others not so much, some neither here nor there. once the run is complete, I will decide weather I will be adding in optional recipes similar to this one, but just more forgiving.

Quick update, every time I water the other plants, these get 1/4 dose of bloom nutes. They seem to be responding well, will move to half dose at 3 weeks

The frost on these Deluxe Sugarcane pheno's can be seen from week 2 of flower already. I love it

@Ill_EvanI wasnt joking! Its doing the job though, just looks shit!

I had some problems with my plants, the sun was burning them to hell and a grass hopper killed two of the seedlings. I bought a cheapo light from takealot and put them in under the stairs with a 120mm PC case fan, they are doing a lot better now and growing like crazy, I’ll tell the SO I want a tent and some odds and ends for my birthday this year. I think for now my setup is working fine. Few things I learned is to give them less water, plant the seeds deeper next time and the smell is quite pungent even if they are still small. I still need to figure out how many males and females I have and get rid of the males, because I doubt they are fem seeds.

Oh man if only I could tell you there wasn't a single problem With the rain we had during summer I ran into a lot of issues but honestly I just left them alone and a lot of them pulled through fine

Pic taken - 23/01/22 For some reason I only have a pic of the plant from this day so yeah

Some SCJ's to be added later, only germinated them on the 21st.

I gave away my pepe le pew plants to someone who really wanted them and I'm left with the strawberry crosses I honestly don't remember which is which at this point as I transplanted them but forgot which one went where and my stoned ass didn't bother to re-label the plants

Pepe Le Pew

All doing well, I knocked one of the SCJ off the rack and it didn't recover it

The strawberry crosses, Strawberry Jedi & Strawberry Cuda.

Pepe le pew all 5 of them came up

Stormtrooper CJ x3 of them came up

Unfornetly no pics this week, but the all the photoperiod strains are almost about to pop through the soil. Will update next week once they pop up.
