The buds are pretty airy.. Not dense at all. But still very happy with the outcome. Can't wait to have it all weighed out.. (Dry of course) The root ball was HUGE... I always have an issue with drying too quick (3 days) so, I'm hoping that the box with the computer fan will still move enough air to keep mold from growing.. But not too much to dry out too fast. Also, keeping it in an unused room that stays alot cooler than the rest of the house. Will update when dried and ready for jars! 50 hours of drying.. She still seems pretty moist.. At least.. That's what she said.. Lol.. Had to.. Anyways.. Yeah leaves are still pretty soft almost lively kinda still.. Not crispy.. Trying to make this dry super slow.. And NO hay smell so far.. That's a good thing.. I think.. As long as it still smells like dank.. Tired of drying my buds too quick or too much if I push for 4 days.. 3 days is not good enough.. Im pushing for at least.. AT LEAST 5 days drying and the buds still able to produce about 65% humidity, or so, on their own.. That is what has worked best for me.. Even if it dried in 3 days.. As long as I get the humidity right for curing it wont ruin the terpenes from what I have been experiencing.. Anybody got any other ideas? Lol cuz what I find on the net doesnt work for me.. I didnt wanna use a fan on this.. And im only using a very small weak computer fan that I rigged up to use even less power.. Just scared to dry this too quickor too much.. Thinking about turning the fan off for a little bit.. Maybe the rest of the day and night.. Ok.. So 6 hours after I turned the fan off.. Still reading 55% RH and 20.5C.. It shouldnt mold *crosses fingers* 74 hours drying.. The buds seem very very airy.. And it seems like its one of those types that look like alot but really weighs half of what it looks.. Maybe when I trim her up she'll look better.. Still a very fun and interesting learning experience! On to the next! Still going to update more!!! Probably tomorrow lol Its been a little over 100 hours of drying and the buds and leaves are feeling pretty crisp.. If I wait till the branches "snap" then it usually comes out too dry.. And so far jars 1 and 2 which are the popcorn buds is ready 70% after being in the jars for about 2 hours.. That is too wet still.. Just going to burp very frequently (3 or 4 times daily) and using a fan for a few minutes to help pull that moisture out and let her go right back into curing.. That's the best way I can get it to not smell like hay.. So far so good.. Still smells pretty dank. Some of the nugs are so linky it reminds me of Dr. Grinspoon's from Barney's Farm.. The calyxs are just spaced apart by stem.. Still looks pretty and smells great.. And smokes even better!.. Will update as I go... After about 24 hours in the jars.. The hygrometers are reading 70% - 75% so I left them out overnight to dry out a bit more.. Just put them back into the jars and will check on them when I get home from work tonight.. I'd much rather not dry enough.. Than over dry ANY DAY.. ifit was overdried, it would smell like hay.. But it still smells dank asf.. Plus.. This is just technically giving more time to dry before the cure.. I read that this is considered the "pre-cure phase"... Wish I would have read that before my last 3 - 4 harvests.. But I have learned it now.. So no more excuses for fuckin it up anymore lol.. https://www.cannabisprogrower.com/curing-cannabis/ That is the link to the way that I have started curing.. It seems to be working pretty well. This has details that I could not find anywhere else and basically had to try and figure out on my own... Then I came across this page.. This is the perfect method for curing in my opinion.. Works great for me! Its been in the jars for 6 days.. I now have the hygrometers reading 61% - 63%... According to that website.. I should stop burping daily.. That makes me a little nervous.. I will atleast open each jar daily to get a wiff of them lol.. They smell pretty good.. Not the best I've smelled.. But atleast I know I'm doing it right this time.. Geez.. The drying and curing is the most detailed part of growing.. My first time i thought you just dry it and throw it into the jars.. No matter how long or short of time it took lol.. My first grow was reading 49% after 3 days of drying.. With a fan!.. So glad I got it figured out finally! Made some Bubble Hash with the trim.. Havent weighed it.. But judging by the size (plus I used to be addicted to black tar heroin) it looks like it could be just about 2 grams.. I'll weigh it later.. Still haven't smoked any of it. I only used the 220 micron and 25 micron bags.. 220 to remove all the leafy substance and the 25 to catch all the trichomes.. Usually my bubble hash turns out very dry and breaks apart.. This stuff is super gooey.. Even after drying for 4 days.. Hmm... Smells amazing.. Wish I could smoke it.. I wonder if I could make capsules of this stuff.. And just take it like vitamins.. Lol.. If anybody has tried that or knows anything about it, comment please.. I'm curious A little after 2 weeks of curing.. The buds smell and taste pretty dank! I feel like I got the curing and drying down.. Yessss!

Also ich kann nur sagen es riecht schon richtig lecker. Man kann richtig Cherry raus riechen einfach lecker. Ich könnte reinbeißen heute hab ich sie noch entlaubt damit sie gut Licht, Luft und mehr Kraft für die Buds hat weiterhin keine Probleme

the 4th week is over and she is doing well. i have started a light LST training. she has gained a good 10 cm in height and she looks healthy and strong.

What a frosty strain, rivals Stardawg in the stickiness. Good resin potential Not a big feeder, normal levels do the trick as they will show some burn if they dont like it. Not a stinker at all Will try to foxtail @ 85F The stretch caused by the tent space issues with the Green Crack really shows here, man 2 ft of plant that was not needed. My fault, start flower under blue or white lights until stretch ends as they will get tall Serious stretch under HPS Excellent genetics, taste test in a few days I _ WANT_ MORE ... please 😉 Letting the FF7 stay in the tent a bit longer, removed all but the small fans to keep the air moving but slow down the rate. Just test weights (love hanging them like this) say @200g a plant. maybe we will see Almost forgot, pulling a small branch from Aeryn to test Easy harvest, nice dense frosty sticky buds, cannot ask for more.

🙏

She is getting transplanted into a 11Litr Pot

Transplanted into bigger pots and moved 2 of the Cream Cookies outdoors. Outdoors I'm growing in 5 gallon buckets filled with ProMix. There are holes drilled at the bottom of the buckets for drainage and the buckets are wrapped with copper tape to help prevent slugs and snails (it works). In the outdoor pics the Cream Cookies are on the right and left (in the middle is Dinafem Quick Critical+). The transplanting didn't stunt anything, seeing significant growth the next day both outdoors and indoors. Still feeding on the Fox Farm schedule at 1/2 strength. This week adds Grow Big to the mix, still feeding Big Bloom, Recharge and CALiMAGic. Totally psyched to see how things develop and compare the outdoor with the indoor. Let the fun begin!!! 😃

Hello everyone, Been busy this week working around the house so not much I can say. Heres a little video of there growing... See you guys next week

Welcome to week 5 of my Bubblegum XL diary Genetics by: Royal Queen seeds Looks great, nice and dark leaf, i like the new smaller leaves, the bubblegum leaves edges remind me of the weel on an automated saw. Kinda cute. I think i will let it grow for another week to get a bit wider plant

Welcome to the 7th week of my Royal queen seeds Royal Gorilla diary Development is very good, this week i've added some guano tea to the watering, leaf is looking good she's liking the outdoor weather, i'm impressed with the growth responded very well after the HST the shape is nice and a bit strange ofcourse, i don't need the stealthy look, but i like it

107 days!! Here is another great experience :) The girl has matured, 330 grams of wet, full of sticky, resinous shiny, pleasantly smelling flowers :) I think it will be about 90 dry :) although the girl is definitely not the biggest, but she looks great, the smell is also amazing :) I also got some sugar leaves from which I will make bubble hash, For me personally it is really beautiful and good growth, which I think will definitely be confirmed by the dried and cured flowers :) there will be a smoke review, as well as the total dry weight. good luck to everyone :).

Realized when I setup the soil that I forgot to give it a good soak and allow to sit for 24 hours. It's just straight out of the bag and I feel like I'm not watering them enough.

Day 71 Update: Watered both plants with almost a gallon until runoff. Water was just plain pH balanced water. Plant #1 has 5 days left on flush and Plant #2 has 11 days left on flush. Although with my tent filling up, I will probably harvest Plant #1 tomorrow as I don't think 4 days of being in there will make a difference in the end product. Day 72 Update: Harvested Plant #1 today. Plant #2 has 10 days left on flush. Day 74 Update: Watered plant with 3/4gal of pH balanced water until runoff. Plant #2 has 8 days left on flush. Also, added another stake to help support a heavier branch. Day 76 Update: Placed buds from Plant #1 in jars to start curing...maybe a little bit too long drying, but if that's the case I'll toss a boveda pack in. Plant #1's yield was 57.2g or 2oz 1.2g. Plant #2 will be harvested sometime next week and I will update the harvest page as soon as buds are dried and weighed.

The OptiGrowX240 is doing great. I really can’t wait to see how it performs in flower. All is good so far I’m happy with the light. Definitely a good light for sure

The temperatures, humidity, height, and watering volume(if measured) in grow conditions are all averaged for the week. The pH is soil pH. Any watering done by me is well water which is 7.6 pH and 50° F. Any listed nutrients are ml/gallon of soil to be spread evenly on top of the soil. The plants are getting just under 13.5 hours of light now. In grow conditions half hours aren't an option, so I'm noting here. Day 1 we had a high temperature of 91°F. Skies were partly cloudy. I watered about 5 gallons per pot. I treated with Growers Ally fungicide. Day 2 we had a high temperature of 94°F. The girls were thirsty. I watered about 6 gallons per pot. I really wet them and the ground under the pots. They're feeding on the runoff in the soil as they've rooted through the pots. Day 3 we had a high temperature of 94°. It felt like 102°F. Skies were sunny and clear. I watered about 5 gallons per pot twice today. The girls were super thirsty. I added 80ml Coop Poop and 45ml Soluble Kelp Meal. Day 4 we had a high temperature of 90°F. Skies were partly cloudy. I watered about 5 gallons each pot. Day 5 the high was 94°F with mostly clear skies. I watered about 5 gallons per pot. Then I watered in the evening about 3 gallons per pot. These girls are eating now. Day 6 we had a high temperature of 89°F. Skies were mostly cloudy to overcast. We had a lot of rain today so no need to water Day 7 we had a high temperature of 78°F. Skies were overcast with all day rain and mist. It's about as bad of weather as u can get for cannabis in flower. Let's see how these fastbuds hold up to 💯 fu weather. Overall the week was a success. The canopy is a little out of hand but these girls are stacking frosty buds. The powdery mildew has been put in check by the Growers Ally fungicide. I'll continue to use that especially after day 7's fu weather.

Here’s where I’m upto guys, I’m really now not sure what to do next, The canopy is pretty even, there some strong branches and a healthy amount of bud sites. Can anyone advise...? Please :)

7/1/25 Good lord yall. The dang frost factor om this lady. Good lord, thank you for blessing me with this heavenly genetic. 🙏 i cant wait to refine my process with her and get the best out of her. This is round 1. just a rough draft. Next round ill try more lollipopping and then less amongst other things.
