They took a while but they all popped out!

Maybe one or two week for harvesting

Pues la catastrofe pasó. Usé una bomba de descarga (un spray de esos que apretad y tira todo) que en teoria es compatible con las plantas dentro.... Se lío, ya se ve en las fotos y video que muuuuuchas hojas han reaccionado, fitotoxicidad y capúm. En fin, el cultivo lo voy a terminar, se salva mucha cosecha, en principio, pero eso.

1/15/2024 - Day 15 Veg: today is the start to week 3, and she continues to look much better. She's a little smaller than I would like at this point, but after the damage from the foiler spray, I'm sure that slowed her down a bit. Hopefully she will be good from here. Have only watered with 6.0 plain water up to this point. 1/18/2024 - Day 18 veg: Did my first feeding today with about .5 gallons at a 6 ph. Mixed in Jay Plantspeaker Quillaja 60 as a wetting agent, Rootwise Mycrobe Complete, Rootwise Bio-Catalyst, BuildASoil Big 6, BuildASoil Cow Cal 24, Pure Protein Dry organic fish fertilizer, and Yah-Whey Thrive. Also, sprinkled some OptiVeg around the base of the plant, before watering in. 1/20/2024 - Day 20 veg: she seems to have liked the watering from the other day, because she is praying today. Trying to decide if I should top her. I'm a little concerned the damage I did in week 1, with the overly hot foiler feed, may have slowed her down a bit, so I'm worried about slowing her down anymore. Her side branching is coming in fairly well, but I'd like to help it along, so I decided to go with a minor super crop to bend her over a bit. We'll see how she reacts.

Finally the buds are starting to take shape and actually look like buds ! The temps have been hot but I keep the lights of during the daytime from 11am to 11pm to avoid the hottest hours Defoliate as it was essential to avoid moisture buildup. Other then that the plant stopped stretching and it’s growing buds from now on O super frosty all ready the phone cam dose no justice!

Solid start to flower for these ladies... Starting this grow diary now and filling in as much as I can from the ~8 weeks before this point. I'll keep updating from now 'til harvest. Struggling to keep the heat down so had to rig up a styrofoam cooler "AC" I found on YouTube, like this one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TpqUr6bEYOs Keeping the DIY CO2 generator running full blast while the lights are on and have some side-lighting led bars in the works that I'll have installed later this week. Drip system has been working great, dialed back the feedings so I don't overwater and can give the top layer of coco a chance to dry out a little bit. Heavy defoliation tomorrow to clean up the canopy...

Plants are responding well, still on a very light regimen, using only compost tea, declorinated tap water. Stem is thick, and strong, has a many colas shooting up with minimal training at the moment. Leaf color is vibrant, and dark. Using compost tea in the third watering as usual. > Compost tea with a twist #3 - 1 cup earth worm castings -1/4 of a cup bokashi -5 tsp recharge -1 tsp shell flour -1 tsp azomite Did not have organic molasses so preferred not to put anything, as the recharge and the bokash i use have some, originally is better to use some in pure form like 1/3 of a cup. EC after 24h is around 0.5 - 0.6, ph close to neutral. So used in pure form, possible to dilute if needed. So far I did not PH the water, only filtering it, gave a bit up on RO for now as the water discard is just insane... probably takes 2 gallons + to make one pure... Just not ecologic... so I have detached the membrane for now and am using two filtering steps, carbon and another one... This diary is probably the nightmare of any nutrient company. Note that Recharge is not needed or azos, I’m using because I have laying around here, a substitute would be some sprout seed tea. My choice for the organic, was to be able to abort ph, have a cleaner product, try something new, and reuse my soil...

All looking decent, been training them probly not as much as I should’ve done, Give them a defol And a lollipop to what I think is ok!!! going to flip them into flower today after getting rid of any light leak etc, Gonna be watching for them hermied closely over the next 3 weeks, hopefully I don’t miss any😬😬

Closing thoughts. Damn easy plant to grow responds well to training have fairly uniformed plants only on kept the purple trait but that's ok we can selection breed for that. I am happy I decided to go this route with the breeding the girl scout diesel really complemented the mother plant

Development is good, plant smells very nice Not too skunky, i like it ;) Plant is loving the nutrients...

Day 106, 17th of November 2020: We need to say goodbye to her very soon. The judgement is harvest. Time has come and she is old enough to be cut. I have checked trichomes all good some days darkness and no more water also and she will be just outside on the table for some days. Really nice little plant not strong smell. I really wanna try the smoke the ratio 1:1 CBD:THC and only 7.5% CBD and 7.5% THC haha :)

At the end of the 6 week of bloom the blackberry cake feminised is holding up. Her bloom is not that fruit full as was lacking the essential nutrients to achieve that. Although the lady is blooming nicely. Her leaves have faded due to the lack of nutrients. The calyxes on the flowers have continued to swell, the pistols are dulling with the plant producing try chromes and bud formation. The blackberry cake feminised stands at approximately 69cm ta

As we venture into week one of the flowering stage, the living soil within our garden beds has already been enriched with carefully selected amendments, laying a robust foundation for our plants to thrive. Living soil is not a static entity; it's a dynamic, breathing ecosystem that needs as much care and attention as the plants it supports. At this crucial juncture, our primary responsibility is to maintain the delicate balance of this ecosystem. Watering practices continue to play a pivotal role—moisture levels are kept at an optimal level, allowing the soil to dry between watering sessions, thereby preventing saturation and promoting oxygen uptake to the roots. Such measures are not merely about quenching the plants' thirst but also about preserving the intricate web of life that exists within every handful of soil. This web of life has indeed become more intricate with a massive explosion of predator mites that have become an integral part of our soil's community. These tiny but formidable allies are voracious predators of various pests that can threaten our plants. Their increased activity is not just a sign of a healthy ecosystem but also a natural form of pest management that reduces the need for chemical interventions. These mites, along with a host of other microorganisms, play a critical role in nutrient cycling and disease suppression, further enhancing the resilience of the plants during their flowering phase. The very life of the soil is now visibly bustling, indicating a thriving micro-ecosystem that contributes to the health of our plants. Above and beyond these microscopic interactions, the larger creatures in our ecosystem—the worms—have begun their vital work. The 'chop and drop' cover crops and clover that were introduced earlier have now become fodder for these earthworkers. As they consume this organic matter, they are not just feeding themselves but are also processing it into rich castings, a natural fertilizer full of available nutrients for the plants. This activity does not just nourish; it aerates the soil, creating spaces for roots to expand and for air to circulate. The sight of such activity is evidence of a living soil that is not just a growing medium but a thriving ecosystem in its own right. The soil, with all its biodiversity, is an orchestra where every organism, from the tiniest mite to the diligent earthworm, plays a critical part in the symphony of growth that supports our flowering plants. As each day passes, this ecosystem draws closer to perfect harmony, bolstering the plants in their quest to bloom with vitality.

Well she popped up super fast, for a seedling her stem is quite thick! I am really interested in the journey I'm about to embark on.. Big shout out to the KANNABIA TEAM for the collaboration 🙌 👌.. Much love ❤️
