8/13-19. Hello friends, welcome to week 15. 8/13 Pictures of tricomes today. This is a difficult process to photograph, hold microscope, keep image still, push the button. Phone shakes, start again. Here are a few of them that weren't just a blur across the screen. I would say trichomes are100% milky. New pistils are still forming on multiple buds on both Gaia and Circe. 8/14 Well damn, based on yesterday's question regarding new hairs forming and when to harvest, it appears CBG is harvested early when the trichomes are milky. You DONT wait for amber. Thus, I will be starting the harvesting process today. I have been flushing for several weeks to reverse lockout but just resumed light fertilizer yesterday, not expecting to harvest now. Today, I flushed with 2 gallons of water with 9ml Signal. Signal can act like a flushing agent. I think nutrient residue will be limited. Hopefully, the late harvesting will not be detrimental to the flavor and more importantly the effect. I'm glad I have 1 more seed that i can grow later, hopefully to perfection. I have already turned off the lights in the tent but will keep the fans and vent on. Plants will be in 2 days of darkness before the chop and dry cycle. Some how I miss counted how many edibles we had (or we enjoyed them so much, we ate extra servings). So today I did double baking. Samoa bars and lemon curd brownie bars. Recipe in week 4. These are cake like. Modifications I did, reduce sugar by replacing with monkfruit sugar. The result is not as sweet as a lemon cake. While not required, a lemon glaze would be nice on this. Side note: I am a very organized person. As director of financial reporting, I was responsible for monthly, quarterly and annual reporting. I planned out my major work 18 months before the due date. I prepared the timelines for all reporting and staff deadlines and due dates from supporting departments. Even with multiple schedules for State and local reporting with short deadlines, i never was stressed out. Why, because I know the process, what's involved, how the schedules and numbers interrelate. I'm so new at growing, I still haven't mastered the basics. Having to react all of a sudden to new information (harvesting late) and jump into gear to resolve is stressful to me. I had many setbacks on this grow. Not all were my fault. I followed the TPS1 auto flower dosages by week and still over fed resulting in nutrients lock. Next grow, I'll plan trimming dates, stress training dates and expected harvest dates. I will still use the TPS1but will reduced the autoflower amount to 1/2. Currently I'm researching living soil to use in future grows. 8/16 today I am sad. Sad that my grow is ending, sad that the grow environment was not ideal regarding nutrients, sad that I missed the optimum harvest window. They remain In the dark with fans and vent on.. Also I brought in the outside girls to put in darkness. Since I'm off my schedule, I give you some entertainment. You've been on GD for a while today. Get up and stretch and get cardio. Look up Sidh. See pic. Hot out of Europe, bagpipes like you've never heard before. 8/17 The girls have been in darkness for 2 days with no water. I opened the tent for pictures. Circe had aphids 😱. All the gals came out of the tent for examination. The other 2, Gaia and cream caramel are in air pots and did not have any bugs. Circe seemd to suffer the most from the fertilizer problem so was more stressed and susceptible to pests. Remember, I had to transplant her early on to a fabric bag. The fabric made a nice home for the aphids. This confirms not to use fabric for my weed grows. Today was wet trim and chop. I decided to get wet weight on Circe but hold off on trim. Weighed prior to spraying with the her off with the hose. She is hanging to dry but I am undecided whether to toss her or not. From my question, growers indicated that I was way past the harvest window based on King crown buds and it may have degraded to CBN and to toss. I have hope for Gaia and will take her thru cure and smoke. There are no amber trichomes on either Gaia or Circe at the start of 15 weeks even after missing the chop window. That may be the result of nutrient lockout or that CBG trichomes don't turn amber. If any one knows please let me know. I trimmed cream caramel while hubby trimmed Gaia. These ladies are hanging together in the garage. Circe is there too but on the other side of the room. Everything in the tent came out for alcohol wipe down and sprayed with Fox Farm "Don't Bug Me". Nothing goes back in the tent until I confirm all infestation has been cleared. The soil Circe was growing in has been disposed of in the ditch. The other soils in the air pots will be amended and reused. 8/18 trimmed outside girls. Had some bud damage. Not sure if bud rot or bug/worm damage? 8/19 well after power wash spray and 2 days of hanging, Circe still had a few aphids crawling around. So I chopped to pieces and put in the trash can. I didn't want to bring the infestation to my compost pile. The soil from fabric bag was spread out at the back of the yard. I have all the girls in the tent hanging and drying. So 2 weeks or so for smoke rreview. Wet weights Godesses and tent mates Circe 750g she was the largest. Unfortunate that I had to trash her. Gaia 508g Cream Caramel 616g Gelato 41 358g Outside girls Northern lights 282g Critical +2 120g All plants are hanging in the tent with a fan rotating outside the tent for air circulation. ***** SEEDSMAN DESCRIPTION: CBG, or cannabigerol to give it its full name, has received a lot of attention recently as a 'new' cannabinoid.

Zamnesia's newly harvested Tropicana Cookies #1 has given us a lot of satisfaction, starting with a huge main cola and ending with a very good resin build and a good production and composition of beautiful, hard buds. The aroma it releases is sweet, delicious, and intoxicating. The plant has grown a lot and is a nice, large plant, although the side branches are a bit too long, which needed support. It's a plant with medium-wide internodal spacing, so it grows tall, with the main cola standing out from the lower buds, and it's very virile, if that concept can be applied to plants. This strain is much-loved; there are many good and famous versions, but ours here at Zamnesia is the best of them all. Look at my plant arriving soon, look at the work of my brother MontyDiabalero, master of giant plants. The resin content is excellent; really, the videos and photos speak for themselves. We grew in a standard 11-liter plastic pot. Maturity - The pistils have been looking super ripe for a long time, especially the upper ones, which are very red, and we're still over 90%. The trichomes are about 20% amber, 50% cloudy/milky, and 30% clear, more or less naturally, but I think that's fine. Remember, my friends, the harvest window for amber trichomes is 15%-30%; THEY DON'T HAVE TO BE ALL AMBER. Amber is a sign of maturity but also of THC oxidation, which transforms the plant's effect into a relaxing "indica," even if the plant is used for daytime use. So my advice is to harvest based on the plant's characteristics if you want to maintain the described effect and according to your needs. If you need to make weed for sleep, let it ripen very, very much, and then you'll need a more pronounced amber. For sativas, or better yet, to maintain daily effects, I recommend around 15% to 20% amber and mostly milky. The flowers are all excellent quality and the yield is excellent, I believe 50-70 grams, cleaned and trimmed, not a full-sized plant. The overall shape of the plant is very good, a tall girl, no techniques used. I have another in a 20-liter pot that is exceptionally large and full of flowers. It's probably very suitable for scrog; it responded excellently to topping. It has a particular characteristic of strong and powerful roots. We chose a 100% organic soil, 1000% Plagron, as always. The soil we chose is the recently launched Plagron Bio LightMix, which will allow us to start with more gradual and consistent watering, without the sudden changes that liquid fertilizers can cause. A week of soil is enough, so don't overdo it. Choose your favorite style and calculate your results on the website: www.plagron.com Visit the new Growshop area on the Zamnesia website: Z - https://www.zamnesia.io/it/531-growshop Our Tropicana Cookies is now in great shape, give it a try! Z - https://www.zamnesia.io/en/10921-zamnesia-tropicana-cookies-semi.html Z - The award-winning Girl Scout Cookies is a cannabis strain that lends itself very well to breeding projects. That's why we boldly experimented by combining its genetics with a fruity Tangie. The result is Tropicana Cookies, a fast and potent hybrid with 22% THC. This strain is highly productive, and its buds are not only rich in sweet and spicy terpenes but also covered in a layer of sticky trichomes (which facilitate the extraction of high-potency concentrates). Tropicana Cookies' genetic makeup is 60% sativa and 40% indica, a blend that produces a balanced and euphoric effect. Although easy to grow both indoors and outdoors, Tropicana Cookies thrives outdoors in warm climates. If you have enough space and good sunlight, the plants can reach heights of 180 cm. Wait until mid-October and, in optimal conditions, you can harvest a whopping 700 g/plant. A result well worth the effort. This strain also impresses indoors, reaching heights of 150 cm and producing 500 g/m². Tropicana Cookies also stands out for its rapid flowering. After just 7-8 weeks of indoor flowering, it will be ready for harvest. You know it, but I recommend it: here you can find so many beautiful things, essentially "the best that nature has to offer."

Esa familia, cómo estáis, yo bastante fumado, pero aquí ando trabajando en los diarios, os dejo por aquí actualizada la semana de las crazy cookies, toy algo descontento con los tiempos de floración en esta variedad pero en si lo demás bastante bien, es un gen bastante sativa a mi parecer por la forma de sus hojas y la estructura del ejemplar. El ejemplar más grande partió el central y tutore de nuevo con 2 tutores más en total tiene e tutores 🤦‍♂️ Ph 6,5 humedad 30/35% temperatura por debajo de 27,5. Seguiremos abonando alguna semana más que terminen de florecer bien. prepararemos un proyecto de exterior con autoflorecientes, mientras desmanteló todos los ejemplares , un saludo fumetillas.

Day8: First day of the new week. I assume still pretty much focusing on roots, as the top didn't really do much today. Day9: Nothing special. But she's growing Day10: Still roots, it seems. Very little happening up top. Day11: Effort being put into growing the top leaves. They increased in size. I assume that the next node will start tomorrow - kicking off the switch into Veg. Day12: Next node already showing :D Day13: I put in a humidifier and changed the cycle of the extractor to keep more moisture in the growbox. My humidity was way too low. Day14: This time the humidity was too high. It was sitting at around 95% when the lights went on.

Info: Unfortunately, I had to find out that my account is used for fake pages in social media. I am only active here on growdiaries. I am not on facebook instagram twitter etc All accounts except this one are fake. Flowering day 43 since time change to 12/12 h. Hey guys :-) The buds are developing really well :-). They slowly get thicker and thicker and smell better and better the closer we get to the end :-). She has completely stopped the stretch in order to transport the remaining energy into the buds 👍. This week it was poured 3 times with 1 l each time (See table above for nutrient addition). In the coming weeks, the nutrients will be reduced more and more. The tent was cleaned and everything checked. Fresh osmosis water has been treated for the past few weeks. have fun with the update.

Day 84 - June 25 June 25 - 09.30AM Trichomes still not ready at 50/50 milky to cloudy. Soil is still moist. Will water either late this evening or tomorrow morning. I suspect this will be the second or last watering before chop. June 25 - 09.00PM Removed a dead leaf - I want to remove some of the dying leaves on the colas, as underside of plant has a beautiful purple hue to the leaves. June 26 - 08.45AM Trichomes are starting to turn milky, with 60/40 milky to cloudy ratio. Will water this evening as pot is getting lighter + soil isn't as moist. June 26 - 01.20PM Purple is here. I think it's time to chop tomorrow as I'm seeing more ambers. I'm noticing some bright green growth which I hope isn't the start of nanners. June 26 - 01.20PM Watered 3L. Chop tomorrow. June 27 - 00.00AM CHOPPED (Day 86). . June 27 - 00.00AM Inspected detached calyx with strange (I suspect pistil) growth. Many amber trichomes found. Strange, given colas I inspected were all cloudy with no amber, but this calyx (located at centre of plant) had plenty of amber trichomes. Perhaps this is due to recieving a higher than expected DLI at hotspot of light. . June 27 - 00.00AM Underside of Buds are underdeveloped in comparison - easily due to light blockage. I aimed not to defoliate as she entered flower, but perhaps with better LST and leaf tucking I could've produced more even yield. . June 27 - 00.00AM Trimmed Fan leaves and mostly necrotic foliage - want to avoid bud-rot at all costs, but I may have over-defoliated. . June 27 - 00.00AM Drying hanging upside down with oscilating fan above (2/10) and one beneath driving air toward a wall of the tent. There's also an extraction fan at the top of the tent. . June 27 - 00.00AM Humidity 60-62% & Temperature 64-66F. . June 27 - 02.45PM Temperature is rising in the tent to 69F, inside a sealed bathroom room. Sealed Bathroom offers no light leakage, but I might need to open the door and allow light + cool air in. . June 27 - 03.45PM Moved tent out of bathroom to get cooler air. Tent temperature was just under 70F. I've likely lost some flavour over a few hours - but now that it's in a cooler environment (with slight light leakage) - things should improve. . June 27 - 03.45PM Temperature & Humidity are 66F and 60% respectively. . June 27 - 04.00PM (16 hours since chop) . June 27 - 04.05PM Added portable cooling unit to intake, this should drop temperature by a degree or two hopefully. Ensured Fans weren't directly in path of buds. . June 27 - 04.30PM Humidity is 66%, I've increased oscilating fan speed to 5/10 to combat this. . June 27 - 08.50PM Humidity is 60%. Temperature is 66F . July 1 - 09.00PM Branches still bend - not snap. Will trim and start cure process tomorrow. Leaves shrivelled up. . July 2 - 10.00AM Rough Trim, and placed into cure jars. 58% RH and 60% RH Probably should have harvested last night. Will maintain RH in jars via burping. Roughly 2oz (56g) of bud harvested.
