To germinate the seeds I put them in hot water for 12 hours, I put them in a dish with slightly damp paper and closed it with the film. The seeds are germinated in 48 hours. At this point I put the seeds in plastic cups previously drilled and filled with a mix of ground professional plus 30%, coco professional plus 69% and mychorrhize 1%, at a depth of 3 cm. Then I watered with 5 ml of distilled water with rhizotonic and NPK + micro elements 20-10-10 ph: 6.0 and c: 0.5. After 3 days the little ones came out. At 7 days from the seed the young plants exhibit an incredible vigor and an already thick and strong root system.

Start of Week 2 Flower. Looks like the fan is blocking some light on the far left and will replace it with a slim profile box fan. Also found a light leak coming from a vent and

Week 9 is still going, the next days i upload some pics of the Strawberry Cough too. And more close ups I Stopped with biobizz scheme now and give only water, maybe it was the last time watering dunno now. Strawberry Cough is strong really Sativa pheno and pretty foxtaily this week :D She was the last in germination and pretty slow early on

This plant is a beast I finally got the nutrients down and got rid of the light color growth it was having the plant would have been great to have a clone it is definitely something worth growing again

Hi! Last week the plant started showing her pistils while stretching a lot, I installed a new mesh 15cm above the first one to support the canopy, and she already reached and passed the new net. I bought 3 more drippers for the Blumat, completing the circle around the pot, I also bought the Blumat maxi to install on the middle of the pot, but I decided not to move forward with the installation because I fought it would do much damage to the roots. I think I finally achieved a good moisture level on the soil, it was more difficult with the larger pot, I think it was too much at the beginning, but the plant is really drinking a lot! The humidity is a little higher than I expected after the carbon filter was installed, it keep floating between 65-75% which was good for vegetative phase, but dangerous to the flowering stage the plant is currently in. I did some defoliation to try to lower the humidity, but there was no improvement noticed. I’m accepting tips here :) The light is a little bit closer to the canopy, for now there is no signal of light burn, I’ll keep it closer during the flowering period. Can’t wait to harvests all this buds!

week intel: its time to harvest some of plants the ones that is mature enough. indica dominant plants will done first always so we should harvest them first because my base nutrients and one of boosters was salt based, i'll do flushing this week to get some relieve to plants in the last days stresses : flushing Drought stress via watering only one time with flushing this week feeding: day 1 : i flushed them with Advanced Nutrients Flawless finish and adjusted ph day 3 : no more feeding from now on day 5 : no more feeding from now on guide of the week : i harvest in 2 parts : first i harvest top of the branches and will let the lower buds to ripe another week then ill harvest the second wave. indica dominant plants will get done 1 or 2 weeks sooner than sativa dominant plants that will often takes more than 8 weeks so be aware to harvest them sooner. my dry and cure style is this: 3 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 3 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. im happy as hell with this harvest :D.

Esta semana más de lo mismo aunque aún no ha terminado...jeje, le tuve que quitar el poso de café xq se le puso una pelusilla un tanto sospechosa(y mejor prevenir que curar ☝️)voy a hacerle un té de hummus, al volver el último fin de semana la he visto con los colores ligeramente más claros en algunas hojas(no sé si falta de nitrógeno o si es un problema de Ph)🤔, estoy planteandome poner mas luz y poner ventilación,🧐 al final de esta semana además quizá empiece a oler a ortiga en la habitación (ojalá 🎃☝️🕺) 🙌👌Quiero que crezca como la levadura!!!!🌵😋

Vyzerajú pripravené na kvet🤪ešte 1 týždeň ,myslím🤔🤔

Week 8 for the Kongs krush from greenhouse seeds 👌 This week we only gave sugars and sticky fingers from xpert nutrients. Amazing results so far 🤯 This strain exploded in thc, specially 2 of the plants For the rest we have water every 2 days. The plants will be harvest in some days

runoff ec measured 2.0 this week. they went to bathroom and now they are around 1.5

Utopia Haze is a rare heavily sativa dominant hybrid (90% sativa/10% indica) strain created through back crossing Brazilian Sativa strains. This tasty little bud took home 1st Place for Best Sativa in the 2008 High Times’ Cannabis Cup and for good reason – with its potent 18-22% average THC level and long lasting cerebral effects, Utopia Haze is one powerhouse smoke. The Utopia Haze high comes on soon after you finish your first toke, hitting you with a strong cerebral lift that infuses you with a sense of hazy relaxation. Type: Feminised/Photoperiod Cultivation: Indoor/Outdoor Flowering Time (days): 70-75 Indoor Yield (g): Up to 650 Feminised Outdoor Harvest Month: October Feminised Outdoor Harvest Month Week: 3rd-4th week Aroma: Citrus, Woody, Pungent, Mint Effect: Cerebral Lift, Hazy Relaxation, Sleepy Welcome Everyone to the Final Entry of my Utopia Haze Grow ! There is so much to discuss ! I have been extremely busy as of late trying to get this Harvest together, but i am happy to have it here for you now ! I Seriously under estimated the amount of time, help from others, and my own necessary skills to pull this off.. and i still kind of screwed it up lol ! But its worth noting i have never actually done this before and trying to document it during....was extremely hard. It is next to impossible to work an iPhone with rubber gloves on ! First I want to discuss everything step by step so before you jump straight into the comments on how the end product is so small in "quantity" Rest assured i am happy with its"quality"...and thats all that matters to me because Life is a journey not a destination! and i have learned so much from this grow that I couldn't be any happy even if i messed some things up :) But at the very least I hope you read through this entry in its entirety with an open mind and focus more on the process, rather than just the outcome! I ran out of Ice & i was only able to wash three times..(normally I've heard you should go sometimes 5-6 washes) Preparation is Key & things will be much better next round :) Photos 1-22 These are pretty self explanatory but for those of you just tuning in now.. this is what happens to a very happy plant when you don't have the necessary tools to monitor key components of growing cannabis.. Ph, as well as EC levels play a very key role in the outcome of your grow lol that being said I was just able to save this plant by purchasing both tools but that doesn't mean the plant didn't suffer because of the prior events.. This was a Huge reason behind me choosing to turn this harvest into what i would consider "Solventless Hash Rosin" from "Ice water extracted Bubble hash". Pictures 23 The idea here is the process of using "fresh Frozen Cannabis" this has been discussed many a time online on such sites as instagram and here on grow diaries as well.. I personally have Never tried the process so i decided to try it out and make a judgement for myself.. Video 24 The Cannabis has now been in the freezer for 72 hours making it very well frozen.. as you can tell i struggled getting it all into the 25u Screen Wash Bag. One thing of note i would do differently is i will de-stem my next batch as i also believe this played a part in the amount of plant matter that escaped through the sieves. Photo/Video's 25-28 The idea here is "ice water Seiving" & especially with the bags that I am using here that are only have screen material on the bottom portion of the bag it is very important to have spaces in-between the screens to allow the water to pass directly through the screens into the bottom bucket with the least amount of resistance.. because the hash is so extremely temperature dependant if it gets warm on the side of the bag.. it will stick there and not make it to the bottom to become use able product.. 29 You do not need to use as much Ice as i used here lol... the idea is to keep everything very cold..i certainly achieved that but at the sacrifice of using so much that i ended up grinding product and producing "contaminants" but in the end they are just plant matter that i would be smoking when i rolled up my joint either way so.. I'm not super disappointed.. But it should be noted that what you want to achieve here is a Layering effect where you have the wash bag between two small layers of ice while the "water current" washes the Trichomes away allowing them to be separated by the screens setup below :) Before Starting the machine you should allow some time (i.e.;10-12minutes pre soak to allow the product to become saturated) before the first cycle. By video 32 I have just ran out of ice lol.. Video 33-34 Here I have a tip for you.. to separate the screens that you sieve through.. cut 5 gallon buckets to stretch them across nice and tight.. it'll make scooping your Bubble that much easier ! i learned this from the many "Frenchy" videos I have watched :) Picture 35 Here in lays the problem for most people.. drying your hash without loosing vast amounts of "Terpenes" whilst also stay ever vigilant against mold ! Thanks to all those videos I've watched on youtube.. id like to think this was one of my most successful parts of this process.. Things to Note; Terpenes start to seriously evaporate at temperatures 68F or 20C you need to stay as cold as possible whilst bringing the Relative Humidity in the space down into the 40-30% to stay away from that nasty mold ! I used my cold storage room in the basement.. with a dehumidifier running to keep the space at 45% RH & staying at a constant 15c. All while spreading the hash as thin as possible across parchment paper, on top of the white screens with a fan moving air across both sides of the paper. Pictures 36-38 These are some macros i took in the middle of my drying session I fell in love with the colour. Yes i know the black spots are plant material but they will get caught when i bag the hash & squish the oil out. Thing to Note; at this stage it is important to ensure you 'micro plane" the hash down as fine as you can whilst staying weary of the temperature... any "chunks" will hold pockets of moisture.. that lead to potential problems..ie; mold ... Picture/Video 39-41 Successfully planed bubble hash ready to be bagged and Squished ! Picture 42 Ive decided to follow Pedro.. from Pedros Grow Room and double bag to be on the safe side so i don't have any blow outs. So thats One 25u bag inside one 160u bag ! :) Pictures 43 This is almost 3 grams of the bubble hash from above, already melting in the bag.. this is where i ran into trouble again lol things started getting to warm in the house and i was only able to get one of the three squish's i did on video :( things started getting sticky. Picture 44 This is basically just a photo of the equipment I'm using; 3x5 LowTemp Cage in the frame I built myself, with a 20Ton bottle jack. Something to note here is this is an older Lowtemp model with only a single heating zone which is which i have it closed here heating Both sides of the press :) As well as the importance of having adequate pressure on your plates.. my rig is very overkill for the size of hash bags..lol Video 45 Here is the lovely press video.. its didn't quite work the way i wanted either lol my directional folding wasn't quite tight enough for a big "drip" :) &the Press was set to 65°c Photo's 46-50 are pretty self explanatory :) I had a blow out.. but still managed to pull an 80% return from the hash once squished...& yes it tasted amazing :) Was it worth it in the end... that could be debated.. for some..i understand..its not your thing, but for those of us that are interested in making our own concentrates.. free from Solvents... I wouldn't make it any other way :) If even ONE of you reading this diary finds it helpful to reference for ANYTHING.....even if its "what not to do" ill consider it a success ! Thanks again for tagging along on this garden adventure.. its been one heck of a journey ! Much Love from B.C. Canada, Until Next time, Cariboo

Last week before flushing🌈

Well what can I say apart from holy shiZzz that looks amazing waking up and seeing your small eco system working out how it should be!! Feeding still very heavily and still taking it like the plant she is!! (they)! Any ideas what kind of weight il get out of this guys? I'm a newbie excuse me guys I never harvested a field before 🌿🐕‍ By the way guys all shockwave f2 plants turned out to be female 🌠🌌🦄

Всем привет, на связи Мистер Грут, решил тут показать свои творения, возможно кому то будет интересно, такие гровы больше ради удовольствия, тут будет 3 сорта, сорт Partizan нету в списке и я не могу добавить После суток замачивания, помещаю орешки на пророст, надеюсь будут живые Очень рад, что все орехи дали корешок, помещаю их в шприцв 50мл, закрыв черной изолентой от проникновения света

Still smooth sailing! 😎 they look so good!!! One lady sure stretched up alot compared to the others but they look amazing!!! The Quebec blue is crushing it and will surely be putting out some good flowers!! I will be turning up the light now 5% a day and should be at 100% around the start of week 5. I am so happy currently and hope the flowers do this crop justice.

the aroma, flavor and effect are top. recommended.

I'M changing the light cycle to 12-12 on December 22nd so this is the start of flower. This beautiful lady has become a very nice bush and is completely ready to start flowering, she looks extreme healthy and looks like she's enjoying the living soil blend, I'M USING THE LIVING SOIL BLEND OF FLORGANICS WHICH CONTAINS EVERYTHING SHE NEEDS FROM START TO FINISH. So let's see how this lady stretches which is one of the parts of the grow that I enjoy the most.

*Disclaimer - Please disregard the counting weeks - The mother is ready to be harvested so the updates moving forward are only for the clones* 05/17 - (C) - The babies are flowering accordingly - Long strans on the flower sites and healthy plant structure on all of them - I will increase their molasse intake to provide more carbohydrates on the feeds - I replaces the C02 bag with a fresh one to give the ladies fresh CO2 through out harvest. I will begin to decrease the light intensity on in the tent to ensure a clean productive harvest. 05/18 -(C)- The ladies trichomes are setting in nicely - they are in week 3 flower and the bud-sites are going in volume every day - Increase in "Raw NPK Cane Molasses" have increased their terp production. 05/23 - (M) - The mother was harvested last week - She yielded a little under 3ozs - She also produced nice dense buds with heavy trichomes and a nice earthy citrus smell - Pictures will be uploaded soon. 05/23 -(C) - The babies are flowering amazingly - nice earthy lemon citrus smell coming off the babies - Trimmed the bottom dead grow and some mid larf to redirect that energy back to the top.
