Three large glasses full to the brim with the purest, sour and diesel-smelling sativa monster! What a tough passage this time. A few unpleasant personal events occurred during 3 months of the finest organic farming, some of which were in the battle with my motivation. A time full of happiness and a time full of sadness and compassion. I also learned an incredible amount once again. I’m very grateful. “The outside of a plant is only one half of reality.” Take care & 🐝 positive Alpha_Green

Buds should be dried in the dark at 20 degrees in 50% humidity

Here we are about a month and a half in and we’re still veg, not even a sign of gender yet no pistils at all. Super bushy keeping up with the low stress training each one has approximately 10 tops.

End of week 9 and the beginning of week 10 of veg. Got them outside... A bit late this year because of the weather. Cold nights. I put a heat sink in there this year to help keep the temp up at nights. 40 gallons of water is under the table. 8 - 5 gallon containers. I'll get them out of there when the weather gets warmer at night. The plants sure look happier in the last pictures that were taken this morning. The soil is 5 gallons of Sunshine Mix #4 (70% Moss) and 5 gallons of compost out of my composters, and mixed them. When I transplanted the plants I surrounded the root balls in the Sunshine mix that has neutral ph, so the roots will grow into the compost and not get burnt by the hot soil right next to the root ball. I added another 3 gallons of Sunshine mix to do that, and to top dress and fill the pots. All the plants have about the same amount of soil in their new pots. Just rain water for now. There is lots of food for them when the roots get to the compost mix. OK. Be Cool. Chuck.

Update; February 14th, 2023. From the moment I flipped to flower, they’ve been exploding with growth! They are super healthy! They grow back and fill in so fast after defoliating, no matter how heavy I go. I’ve added the supplemental lighting (Viparspectra 600) this week to really get the most I can. Figuring out a way to mount it higher.

Growth is super, despite having splitting and getting a break where I topped due to something falling on the plant. I quickly patched her up with some electrical tape and a cable tie and she recovered within a day! Super resilient plant. She's starting to smell and putting out a few pistils already at the end of week 1 flower!

Day 42 – the girls are deep into flowering now, and they're looking amazing. Buds are really starting to fatten up, and there's a noticeable frost forming on the sugar leaves and top colas. The smell is getting stronger too – sweet and fruity from the Zkittlez side, but with that strong, earthy undertone you’d expect from Gorilla Glue. Ive got some problems on the leaves because i forgot to water it . Stretch has pretty much stopped at this point. They've settled into full bloom mode and are putting all their energy into stacking. I did some light defoliation a few days ago to help with airflow and get light to the lower sites – seems to be working well. Feeding every 2–3 days now. Smell is picking up quickly. Can’t wait to see how frosty they get in the next week or two

LST is doing great 😌

Permanent Marker has taken to the FIM last week. Looking nice and healthy, again a slight Nitrogen excess. Which will resolve itself without intervention. Provided no N is added into the nutrient soloution. I am actually considering super cropping the main stem on this one. Let's see next week how we are looking then. Here's what I did this week. Here is what I did this week. 12.9.25: I watered with 1L of dechlorinated water PH'd to 6.5 with; 💜 2ml Trace 💜 2ml Flourish PH: 6.5 PPM: 335 The fungus gnats have really incresed since I did a watering of the whole tent. I have some more sticky traps set out, and I will not water for several days. Once it has dried the top soil, I will add some more Diatomaceous Earth to the top 5cm. Thank you for checking in this week, I'm very much looking forward to how she turns out. Sounds like a banger. See you in the comments 😁💚✌️🧡👌

What up Fam, weekly update on these frost monsters, I chopped a few and froze them as the terps and resin production makes me think it'll make an excellent Rosin. I'll be pulling the rest out this week as they're super close to being finished. One I'd highly recommend. Happy Growing

Thatns not the speedest start of grow i've ever Seen, plant growing well but they are very slow, in first Time i've would tobdo a mainlining but maybe it's notnthe best Idea for them

ritical Purple Kush was harvested on day 65 of flowering. This plant was a joy to grow, with no major issues throughout the cycle. The buds are dense, beautifully colored, and carry a delightful sweet, earthy aroma with citrus undertones. Can't wait to see how it cures—it promises to be an exceptional smoke!

Flipped her to 12/12 lighting a couple days ago. Gonna continue to tuck her for the next week or so and then let her grow upwards. Looking forward to a good flower phase!

Flowering looks awesome on the ChemDog! Lots of bud sites and they're growing at a respectable rate. ATF's are running 3 plants in 3 diff stages- one's a couple weeks into flower, one's just starting,and one's still the holdout. Meanwhile, I've got flowering on the Night Nurse and one of the Viper Cookies. The rest are close but I can't say for sure they've transitioned. Weather's getting into a hot and humid phase, gotta watch that ChemDog. Think it's got a decent structure for ventilation but I've read horror stories on how the Dog loves mold. Further training of the branches has been fruitful, I'm seeing a lot more topside bud sites than usual. I'm working on irrigation-- I set up a 30 gal container and it works for drip, but without a pipe system it's still one at a time, although I have to admit it's worth it to save my back. Plus, I have to have a supply ready for use in case my buddy needs to fill in for me and water the ladies. Been checking the cameras regularly ( I have them all throughout the property, game cameras with IR flash), and to date haven't seen anything that would constitute a threat. Just some curious raccoons and one really ugly opossum. Even the skunks don't bother them this year, which is nice but a little strange considering they dig in them every year. It's really just the animals I'm watching for, people aren't as much of a concern. Mostly because I don't know any. Aside from that, I sleep with my head feet away from my babies, so somebody would have to have big brass ones to even try. Yes, I know, a little overprotective. Fingers crossed it'll be one hell of a harvest (by my standards). 8/11 Update: Been lucky still with the weather, but it's turning really humid. Fed the girls this morning, a mix of 1C molasses and 1/2C epsom salt in 20 gallons. Just a little supplement to the tiger bloom they've been feasting on. Speaking of the Tiger Bloom, I can't help but think I'd do just as well mixing my own nutrient solution, since the cost really adds up quick. For his year, however, it'll be fine. My watering gizmo is working well, just leaks a tiny bit and that's fine for the remainder of the year. Now that I have an idea of what works for me I can spend the off-season setting up something right. Had to thin out the Lamb's a bit, it wasn't getting anywhere near enough air flow. Also took a few on the ChemDog as I'm expecting mold/rot conditions for a while and she's prone. Shouldn't have much problem, wind blows almost constantly here, but you can never be too careful. Training is taking well, overall they look pretty good. Next year-- bigger grow bags, better soil, and much pickier seed choices. I think I may even abandon the idea of topping them in the future-- it just slows them down and you can get the same end results with training. Granted, my ladies are kinda sparse and ugly, but that's the learning curve. Next time around I think I have a pretty good idea of what to do and when to do it, based on what worked and didn't work this year. Another big thing is nutrient timing-- I def jumped the gun on flower power for a few of them and it just stunted them wicked-- shoulda continued veg food a couple weeks into flower even for the early bloomer, she'd be a monster.
