Day 85 - first day of Week 13 and she is going into darkness for 48 hours. Hasn't been watered since 2 days. Even though she looks the least done of all three, her trichomes are now a good 20-30% amber with the rest milky and some tiny bits of clear. I checked her buds on the calyx all around, from top buds to middle to bottom. She really shows a lot of heavily swolen calyxes, which I have never seen like that. I can now add that to the things I learned/experienced: calyxes swell a lot before the plant is finished. Let's see. My Girl Scout Cookies does not look like she even has calyxes. Funny individuals. Happy wedding cake day, almost 😍 Day 88 - out of darkness. She was in there for 2,5 days. Opening the drying tent she gave off a really strong smell of hash 😍wow. She has some nice looking buds and looks def. more done, but below her dress, she has some light fluffy buds. I have hung all of them now in the dry tent, after I removed some of the bigger fan leaves. One part of it, I think I want to low and slow dry in the fridge. I am interested in finding out about the difference in taste, when a more wholesome profile is retained. For anyone interested, I can highly recommend this forum and this article: https://www.420magazine.com/community/threads/drziggys-low-and-slow-drying-maximizing-your-harvest.366783 Another part I would like to use for fresh cut oil, also from here: https://www.420magazine.com/community/threads/fresh-harvest-infused-cannabis-oil.363371/ As with everything else, I was obsessing about the perfect dry room & conditions. I bought a small tent (40x40cm), a small oszillating fan hung over the buds/on top of the tent. Due to size limitations, I have the filter on the bottom with the duct leaving the tent at the bottom connecting to an exhaust fan. Inside the tent I have a humidity sensor from an Inkbird Humidity regulator. Connected to that is a mini-dehumidifer and a humidifier. I have set it to 20°C (68F) and 50-55% humidity. I'm excited to see how long my dry will last this time. My first grow was drying way too fast in the middle of the heat wave last year with 30% humidity. The overview added to the pictures, I started making over Christmas. It was when I noticed, that I'm a so impatient, and that something must be wrong, especially in the first weeks. I get so obsessive, that I tend to overcare. Which she showcases beautifully in this overview. I hope this will calm me down the next time. Oh my haha Let's see what the final dry weight is. My guess is about 25-35g. Any other guesses? Happy Wedding Cake day 😇

Going to run my light close to the dominant plant even if I burn it.

WEEK 11 - FLOWERING: Finalizing a Masterpiece ​🌼 FLOWERING PROGRESS The Monster Maker is showing spectacular progress as we enter Week 11 (Week 7 of flowering). The buds have developed into dense, heavy clusters, and the stacking of the flowers is truly impressive. We are now seeing the full resin potential as the plant pushes its trichome production to the limit, covering every calyx in a sticky, frosted coating. ​👃 TERPENES & AROMA The aroma profile has become exceptionally pronounced. This week, the Monster Maker is giving off a captivating sweet and floral fragrance, beautifully highlighted by sharp tangerine notes. 🍊🌸 It’s a very distinct and refreshing scent that dominates the grow space. The enhancement of these unique terpenes during the final ripening phase is fantastic to experience. ​💧 NUTRIENT FEEDING & WATERING I am maintaining the established high-level feeding schedule to ensure the buds have all the necessary elements for the final ripening process and maximum resin density. ​Current Feeding Schedule: Calmag: 1.5 ml/l Acti-Vera: 5 ml/l Bio-Heaven: 5 ml/l Bio-Bloom: 4 ml/l Top-Max: 5 ml/l Bio-Grow: 1 ml/l ​💭 GROWER'S NOTE 👀 "Week 11 for the Monster Maker and it’s a show-stopper! ❄️ The density is spot on and the tangerine smell is absolutely unique and addictive. We are focused on quality and the final finish now.

Cosecha: Día 63 - Cosecha Óptima Dinámica Nutricional y Translocación de Metabolitos El éxito de este ciclo radica en la ejecución estricta del escalonamiento gradual del Nitrógeno (N). Siguiendo los hallazgos de Saloner & Bernstein (2021), redujimos el suministro de N conforme avanzó la floración para evitar el antagonismo con la síntesis de metabolitos secundarios. Punto Dulce de N: Al mantener el flujo de N por debajo de los 160 mg/L y finalizar cerca de los 0-50 ppm en la fase de maduración, logramos "apagar" la inversión energética en biomasa foliar. Translocación de Azúcares: Esta deficiencia de N programada indujo una translocación masiva de carbohidratos desde las hojas abanico hacia las inflorescencias. La planta, al detectar la baja disponibilidad de nitratos, priorizó la ruta del ácido mevalónico y la ruta MEP/DOXP, maximizando la biosíntesis de cannabinoides y terpenos en lugar de aminoácidos estructurales tal como lo documentado en el articulo de Saloner y Bernstein. Análisis del Estado de los Tricomas Glandulares La decisión de cosechar en el día 63 se basó en un análisis micro-morfológico de los tricomas: Madurez Cromática: Se observó un 90% de tricomas lechosos (opacos) y un 10% de tricomas ámbar. Este ratio es el punto de máxima concentración de THC gracias a la aplicación de 250 ppm de Ácido Ascórbico como antioxidante en la última semana, justo antes de que la degradación enzimática hacia CBN. Integridad Estructural: Gracias al aporte de Silicio biodisponible (manteniendo el buffer de 40-49 ppm de Silicio), las cabezas de los tricomas glandulares mostraron una resiliencia mecánica superior, evitando la ruptura prematura y la oxidación de los aceites esenciales. Salud Metabólica y Protección Antioxidante La implementación del protocolo de Ácido Ascórbico (250 ppm) y Ácido Salicílico (70 ppm) en la recta final fue determinante: Neutralización de ROS: El ascorbato actuó como un potente antioxidante sistémico, neutralizando las Especies Reactivas de Oxígeno (ROS) generadas por la alta radiación y el calor del Exterior preservando la transparencia y pureza de la resina. Priming de Defensa: El ácido salicílico mantuvo activa la ruta SAR, asegurando que el sistema inmunológico de la planta permaneciera alerta contra patógenos oportunistas durante el periodo de estrés hídrico controlado (dry-backs) previo al corte. La arquitectura floral muestra una densidad de cálices excepcional, característica del linaje Cookies, con una cobertura de resina que confirma una gestión impecable del estrés abiótico y la nutrición mineral basada en evidencia científica.

01/09/2022 Finally time to flower, and all girls went into flower room at lights out.The males will be next week, don't want to put them in to early so I will carefully check every day and separate before they open their flowers. I'm guessing week 3-4 I Will select two branches on each female to selectively pollinate. 01/11/2022 Blue Matter #5 (update #5 culled male) repotted with lemon og seed Will continue in her own evolving diary. My hope is to eventually graft different cuts for a multiple variety mom plant, I can have 6 total plants And would be nice to be able to maintain only one mom.

Another week has gone by and I like were this is going !! I hope to be able to flip in 2 weeks. The tripple cheese #2 is developing indica like leaves. I included a video showing a water dripper that I tought was cool.

Flushing +pure water (6,7)

Anche questa watermelon è giunta al termine.. missione compiuta con successo, adesso resta l'ultima è quasi più importante cosa da fare...LA CONCIA!!!!MOLTO IMPORTANTE ASCIUGARE BENE É PIAN PIANO, ALTRIMENTI PERDIAMO TERPENI E SAPORI TIPICI DELLA NOSTRA AMATA PIANTA..HO VISTO PERSONE FARE DELLA BELLE PIANTE MA POI ROVINAVANO TUTTO PER NON ESSERE CAPACE..FACEVANO L'ALBANESE AMMONIACATA E NERA( perché la chiudevano fresca,facendola fermentare) un peccato 😜🤦🤦

So were on day 26 of flower there looking good getting a nice smell starting to throw out trichomes Have down loaded a thew videos of before and after removing fan leaves

Training complete, Its as flat as a pancake

This week has gone well. 6 plants in such a small space is playing havoc with the humidity but I feel I'm just about on it enough not to cause any rot. The strawberry gorilla is also developing quickly. The HST doesn't seem to have effected it at all. This is another strain in the tent that may finish a bit before it's 90 day schedule time. ******competition time****** I have an extra pack of 3 seeds of this strain that I'm willing to give away to UK growers.
