I think we are doing good.. getting bushier, a little more lst in 2 out of 4 plants. #2 got a bit of yellow leaf tip but i think its all my fault from lst and and some water.. Added top max to the game and made a break from B52.

Quick foreword: I hate how Growdiaries does Harvest and Smoke separately and then messes up all the pictures. Please bear with me, I tried to label them all. Wowsers, what a trip this contest grow turned out to be! I am so sorry to submit it one day before the deadline, life got in the way, but the good news is this lovely plant has had a chance to fully cure and she’s been helping me through big changes in my life. Dry weights will be in the Smoke report. I have only input the mother’s dry weight as the total end dry weight. This is because this is a competition diary and the rule is one plant. Consider the clones a successful experiment. They are only here to document how hardy this plant is and how easy she is to clone. Remember, one of the clones was the top of the plant I cut off when topping her before flipping. I usually can never get those to root, but this plant clones very easily! As always, the main plant was dried in a cardboard wardrobe box, modified to have a 5v USB fan extracting air at the bottom. This helps prevent mold but keeps moisture in for a slower dry, which leaves some more terpenes. Drying took around two weeks. Trimming was a pain. I love the smell of this plant, but her lowers are so leafy. If you go back to around the weeks where I flipped, you can clearly see I left too many lower nodes and as a result I had too much of a bush. The Micro DWC experiment ended up surprising me the most. Check out the smoke review for its weight and taste! some people also asked me how far I keep my lights, I don't measure the distance, sorry. I use Photone on iOS and push the ppfd of my plants up to 1000 during flower. The Soil clones and the main competition plant were planted in organic soil from a local garden center mixed with organic fertalizer tablets and worm castings, the clones were in 1L and 3 gallon pots and the main competition plant was planted in a 5 gallon growbag. once the plants ran out of food I fed Plagron's Alga line. the DWC clone used just Plagron Hydro A+B and extra PK 13/14 in flower, this is by far the cheapest and most effective way in my experience, it could be due to lack of skill in organics, but you can clearly see, my DWC plant is frostier than my soil ones, and they're the exact same phenotype. I'll probably be going back to hydroponics, I'm not saying organic isn't the way to go, but for me personally, my skillset and way of growing better fits the artificial nutrients, and as a result my DWC plants flourish. I feel more in control with DWC, I know exactly what's going on in my buckets, whereas with organics I'm often scratching my head in frustration.

So the second week started and I start with grow technique and try to bend down the main line to give more light for the lower sights may increase the yield and potency. Definetly try to make several main colas and If it will be necessary I will use some ScrOG method too. I will update the second week in the second part of the week with more photos about how they reacting the start of the LST. After the natural grow style this is definetly more work and care but I really enjoy to make work with her. UPDATE #1: Start to give more nutrients. Enchanced root developers, high dose, vitamins, hormones, everything. Bend down her allday-everyday, like every 4-6 hours. I updated some pictures and videos before the week II second part. This next weeks crucial about the LST, so try to maximize the observation and acting fast if it is neccessary. Even cutted down 1-1 fan leaves because they blocked the light way so I think this will also maximize the reach of the light. Definetly exicting.

So, I was going away for a week. Given that I'd been babying these on the daily, I had some trepidations about leaving them for a week through at least two if not three, watering cycles. I engaged the help of a trusted friend to stop by and make sure they were watered and cared for. As I'd been running the tent pretty hot, I wanted to increase the margin of error so I dropped the power down to 75% and raised the light about 6". Once I came back, the plants were very healthy for the most part. I did begin to get PM on one of the plants as you can see in the photo. So began treating that (defoliation, cleaning, spraying w water, obsessively searching for new spots). I was very pleased with the way they were crystalizing. The one plant with the super fat colas wasn't as resinated as the others at this point yet she was THICC and dense.

Note : * = Changed watering schedule to giving 4 Liters per plant per day since day 3 during week 12, currently giving 6 liters a day per plant due to extreme temperature change. Might drop back to 5 Liters per plant per day depending on weather conditions. Note : Haven't been giving nutrients to my plants since the beginning of week 12, will be giving nutrients again at the end of week 14. The plants are having 2 weeks of flushing and seeing if they are in need of nutrients or not. Week 13 - Day 1 : Upscaled watering * Week 13 - Day 2 : Unknown information Week 13 - Day 3 : Water check, pinched lower branches Week 13 - Day 4 : Unknown information Week 13 - Day 5 : Temperature check, humidity check, pinched branches of subjects 1,2 and 3 Week 13 - Day 6 : Restday Week 13 - Day 7 : Pinched branches from subjects 1,2 and 3. Week 14 - Day 1 : Pinches branches of subject 1,2 and 3. Picture from above showing the canopy of subject 1,2 and 3. Showing subject 4 and 5. Week 14 - Day 2 : Restday Week 14 - Day 3 : Unknown information Week 14 - Day 4 : Pinched branches of subjects 1,2 and 3. Week 14 - Day 5 : Pinched branches of subjects 1,2 and 3. Super cropped subject 1 into a more even canopy, bend into a 90-degree angle and secured with a rope. Week 14 - Day 6 : Changed setup, due to subject 5's height he needed to be moved more backward, also for a better-controlled airflow. Week 14 - Day 7 : Restday, didn't make a picture of subject 3 accidentally. Note : Still haven't been using nutrients yet for 2 weeks straight. I don't think they need that much nutrients since I have been giving them so much lately. Will ask this tomorrow in my new grower question and lets see who comes up with the best answer for this.

Day 78 of flowering Stopped adding nutritions to the water after day 71. The plants started to get a bit shady after that, by shady I mean that they been hanging and slowly turning yellow, and getting some spots on the leaves. I almost had an heart attack when i saw that one plant had during 30ish hours turned brown and dried all out - See the pictures. I couldn't see any mold or any thing, so i chopped the top of the plant off. None of the others had anything like this.. The buds are getting so fat that the plants are starting to have a hard time holding the weight pf the buds. Im planing on harvesting during the next week.

This week has been cold in the grow room with day time temps at 16c and night time around 12-13c. Growth this week has been quite slow and I wonder what has the biggest impact on growth rate. Is it temperature, light intensity or soil moisture levels? I've had the light at 25% since germination and wonder if it would be beneficial to start increasing the light levels or wait until they're more established before doing this. If anyone happens to read this and has thoughts about how to encourage faster growth, I'd be interested to hear.

Strain was easy to grow. Had some herms but since I only have 2 plants I was able to pinch the balls off. Buds have no seeds and are a strong smoke. Really hits the lungs.
