This week I inoculated the room leaves and plants with Neoseiulus cucumeris, I have had minor thrip problems all summer, Usually I use lady bugs to combat them but none have been available this year. I inoculated the plants by shaking the bottle full of Cucumeris and bran over the leaves. I will do this a few times before pre flowers show. Cucmeris are predatory mites that eat the thrip larvae. And are supposed to work for spider mites as well. I added the scrog nets to the room and began training the plants through them. I then flipped the lights over to 12 and Initiated pre flower. All vegetative growth was very vigorous. The goal of this grow is to do a preliminary test to begin to determine if Mycelium provides any additional benefits to Cannabis when allowed to colonize in super soil before being added to bottom layer of the pot. The Process: 1) 8 weeks Prior to Germination Super Soil is mixed (see super Sub cools super soil recipe further down the page) and added to spinning two part composter, water is added and the super soil mix is allowed to break down for a week. 2) 7 weeks Prior To germination 1L of colonized mycelium is added to each side of composter. Mycelium is now allowed to colonize the super soil. 3) After 8 weeks total the Mycelium has had enough time to colonize throughout the super soil mix and is ready to be added to the bottom 1/3rd of the pots. See Pictures for an example of what this looks like.

April 5th - First day of the 2nd week above ground. Plants were watered early yesterday, and some dilute nutes were included. Rapid start & MediOne. - “no Foliar Mist this morning due to the breakfast meal” - 2nd and 3rd Nodes are being built as we speak Apr 6 - a.m. foliar mist for the tent - waiting a day to feed as the soil feels damp. Let it dry further Apr 7th - attempting to Re-Pot the Congo #3 x Bangi Haze this morning as the soil seems to be a solid plug. Air Holes around the perimeter over-nite, was a great suggestion, Thanx Growmie; but new Soil is where this is going. (ps there is another congo 3 seed in water just in case): done, video uploaded of the transfer - a little leaf discolouration led to a bit of Cal/Mag being added to a small drink for the plants. 60-80ml per plant. Overall plant moisture is dropping. April 10 - each plant looks much stronger and the crowns are solid green. Over-watering incident is drying out nicely. 100mls per plant was added this morning. CalMag & RapidStart are the only ingredients. - fresh Congo #3 x Bangi Haze seed germinated and placed in Soil this morning ( insurance for the one that is struggling ) - Tues pm or Wed am, I am going to run a volume of 5.9/6.0 pH water through the pots, to get rid of this 7+ pH. - foliar mist applied at lites-out. that is also on hold now till soil-flush. That's the plan anyway cheers

Not a lot happened last week, just monitoring, feeding, and keeping everything in check while the girls did their thing. I did switch over to my finishing nutrients and have cut out calmag according to feeding chart I have been following. I think we are gettting pretty close to harvest though! The trichomes are starting to get a little milky. I am going to wait until about 30% amber to harvest though. I am getting super excited to finish this one and start my next run! 9/2 - The girls have been doing great and are starting to pack on the size and frost nicely! Nothing to do to them really except monitor and keep checking and making sure everything is running at an optimal level. The closer it gets I start to get a little nervous for the dry. I am prepared and have a plan, just hopefully I can get my dry set up as dialed in as I was able to get my grow tent. I will try to post more updates this week. Last week I had company from out of town, so it was difficult to get around to it. 9/5- Just continuing to monitor and check the trichomes, once about 25-30% turn amber I will be harvesting! They are starting to get pretty cloudy right now. When I did the res change yesterday, I switched to just root drip and full tilt and have started flushing, hopefully not too early, but im following my feeding chart. As always tips and recommendations always welcomed and appreciated! Thanks for checking out my diary!

Edit: due to unforeseen circumstances the harvest was delayed by 5 days. I ended up harvesting them at day 60 of flower. I’ve added an extra video of what they looked like just before I cut them down 😸 It’s been a fairly smooth run 😸 The clones grew as expected, this is the third time I’ve grown this particular pheno. She’s got a killer smell straight up gassy sherb and a taste that leaves you wanting more. The buds themselves are rock solid to the touch and super greasy. She’s not the frostiest plant I’ve grown, but she packs a punch! I’d like to thank everyone who has taken the time to have a look, comment or like this diary. I hope it’s been helpful in some way 😸 If you want a bit more info on this strain, check out my previous diaries 💁‍♂️ you might find them useful 😸 LIT Farms got some 🔥

I don't know where to start and I must admit I'm completely overwhelmed by this beautiful beautiful plant ❤️❤️❤️ Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah, I'm so happy 😍😍😍 She is a blessing! Excuse the outburst, but she is magical ☀️ I applaud you guys at Humboldt for creating such a wonderful strain 🙌 Some details upfront, before I rave some more: - 134 Days in total: 70 Days in Veg, 64 Days in Flower with 128W LED in a 60x60x160cm tent - 7 Days Drying regularly, 9 Days Drying in the Fridge - 432g - Wet weight with stems - 103g of those for Fresh Harvest Infused Oil - 190ml Olive oil with 30mg/ml THC & CBD - approx. 20g dry (for dry weight calc.) - 87g for the DrZiggy's Low And Slow Drying in the fridge - 20g dry - 242g for regular Drying @50% RH and 22°C - 55g dry - 30g dried sticky trim in the freezer Summary of my growing experience with this strain: She takes well to massive training and a little neglect in the beginning, meaning she recovers well, which is what I want 😊 I didn't experience any major deficiencies. She had a little nitrogen deficiency during the later veg phase, which she showed with lighter green leaves. I blame this on my long veg time and my pot size of only 11l. She consumed all her soil and nutes by the end of veg. I will keep that in mind for my next grow. Since I increased my nitrogen levels so close to flowering phase, I overdid it a little on the nitrogen which showed a little bit during later flowering phase with downwards clawing leaves. So I will be more careful with nitrogen especially while transitioning into Flower. I did not flush this plant and she smokes already beautifully mild after only a couple of days of curing. Drying her took 7 days in the tent and 9 days in the fridge. She crusted up with lots of stickiness while drying and gave off a good bit of scissor hash & kief when trimming. Smoking her is a great and different experience to me. It's my first time with a 1:1 strain and I can definitely notice the CBD content. She shows in a very well balanced body high with a slight and gentle knock on the THC door. The first couple of days I felt a craving for higher THC which settled down after only a couple of days. Very interesting and definitely worth growing. So you guessed right, I totally recommend growing this beauty. Especially if you are interested in exploring a 1:1 THC:CBD strain with all its magical medicinal values 🙏 Why I grew this strain: Like @Experimentgreen on here, I grew this strain for my Mama ❤️ She is open minded to trying to solve some of her health issues with these beautiful plants and the magic they bring but she also likes to have a bit of fun, she doesn't mind. So a 1:1 strain was quite handy. She suffers from neuropathic pain, arthritis in her joints, restless legs and insomnia. All very relatable issues and perfectly suitable to be introduced to some good CBD and THC content. She already has a little tolerance, since she is treating her restless legs with gummi bears I made with a strength of 1.5mg/gummi bear. This small dose already helps her on a daily for her restless legs. Beautiful 😍 So with this special mission in mind, I wanted to process the plant with only the very best options and create Cannabis Oil (Capsules) for my Mom to take. I chose a method called "Fresh Harvest Infused Cannabis oil" by the wonderful member SweetSue over at 420magazine: https://www.420magazine.com/community/threads/fresh-harvest-infused-cannabis-oil.363371/ I hope it's ok to relink, no need to duplicate already existing and well researched content, right? I will not go into detail and def. recommend reading through the whole thread. I only document the short version here, but feel free to ask me, I'm happy to share my experience. The oil I made has 30mg/ml of THC and CBD. That's a good value. I calculated the strength the following: 75g fresh Flower in 200ml Olive Oil - with 10% CBD&THC 85% extraction efficiency with the infusion method 85% * 10% THC&CBD = 0.0850 0.0850 * 75g = 6.375 gram of available THC & CBD 6.375gram * 1000 = 6375mg/THC 6375mg/CBD 6375mg/200ml = 31.875mg/ml CBD & THC I created capsules with 3mg per capsule. We are currently trying to find the right dose for her. She started taking one capsule 60-90min before bed for 3 days now and will increase by 1 capsule tonight. We continue until a max dose of 15mg/day but always re-evaluate how she feels. She's documenting her experience quite cute. Very heartwarming and powerful. So far she sleeps better and she falls asleep faster, which she hadn't done in a long while. Onset is pretty precisely between 60 and 90 minutes. She has not had any restless legs so far. I'm excited for her and can't wait to see where this takes us. I also made her a salve/creme she uses as a topical on her joints. When she uses it early enough, before the big pain hits, she feels it helps. Of course this is not a science study and everything is purely based on personal experience. I thought I share, in case anyone is interested, also I want to give back a little, since I consume so much knowledge from all over the internet, including here, so thanks 🙏

We are entering week 6 now! Since the last heavy defoliation 3 days ago she’s handling any stress like a champ. No highs of slowing down growth. First pistils are showing and looking strong I feed her with 2liter of ph regulated water from bottom and about 1,5liter from top every 4 days. The stretch is visible but not that crazy, which is good in regards of the limited space in the vgrow. At the end of week 6 she’s getting a little defoliation to ensure good light conditions in the lower part of the plant.

So as you can probably tell from the diary name I fcked up, but hey thats something no one wants to show you so thats why im still posting it. Did wayyyyyy to many defoliations in the time of the „stretch“ thats why I did to much stress and she didnt „stretch“ Im still gone bring her through flower but im hella disappointed in my self.

01/08/2022 Took 3 more smaller ( micro) clone to sure up my supply lol She will stay small in this size pot but her clones will have time to veg a long time. Last picture is fungal dominant compost, getting ready for a long brew 36+ hours. I inoculated compost with baby oat meal (a great fungal food) equal parts with Happy Frog potting mix (loaded with good stuff) posted label with pics. And light water till she stays together with out falling apart (don't over saturate) cover but don't seal you need a little air flow, wait till solid white blanket appears and brew in good water 36+ hours till done.

Sie wächst. Sehr schön. Wetter hat sich von ultra heiß zu moderat gewandelt (soll aber wieder zurück schwenken) und die Ladies kommen damit besser klar. So is dat fein Stelle grade fest, dass sich Zeichen von Blütenphase zeigen. Hmmmm... Ist was klein dafür, finde ich. Aber bei dem Wetter zuletzt lief einfach nicht viel. Erneute Kontrolle, Ergebnis: Deutliche Blütenansätze, ab Sa dann off. Blütenphase

Everything is going very well, for an entire week I directed the branches in the scrognet with tucking and rope ties. Today and yesterday I was not at home to do any tucking so at the end of the timelapse an clear explosion is visible haha. Im really happy with the spread of the scrog so far.

New week starts! I will wright updates every day now. Cos I don't want to keep photos on my mobile devise. I'll make new photo of a new day, load it up and delete immediately. Keep it safe, guys. 🌞13.11.2022 I putted some more substrate to cover my flowers to the leaves. It's only 'training' till now. Also, one of my mini ventilators started to make a creepy noise. I ordered two more cheap mini USB ventilators. I hope they will live longer. That one died after a couple month of work. Sadly... 🌞14.11.2022 Next day morning my ventilator died. I scrued it apart. Then I remembered I have tattoo machine oil in my garage. When I oiled it and turned ON it began to spin like new... Mb I acted stupid buying two new ones, mb not. It's written on the oil tube: 'Oil your tattoo machine every 30 hrs'. So after a few days we'll see. :-) 🌞15.11.2022 The second one plant has a slightly larger second pair of leaves (triple ones). Maybe because it came from her seed one day later. There were a seed peeling problem to both of them and I was forced to help. A difference in germination time was about 8 hrs. 🌞17.11.2022 My ventilator died this evening. Two others I ordered didn't come to me yet. But they should come tomorrow. I don't know will they pass, but it will be better then nothing... 8 hrs difference between growing flowers still noticeable, it's disposed on photos. No feeding for today. 🌞18.11.2022 Today two new air coolers came. They are good quality and power for their's size but too noisy. Not so bad, I say. I installed one of them (it's on photo) and leave the second old one on it's place. It still works and a noise is not so loud. I wunder, why my plants are different by the size. Maybe because one of my old ventilators stopped all the time? 🌞19.11.2022 I watered my girls with 'GHE Pro Roots' and measured drainage today. Input was ph6.0 and outflow - ph6.5. I think we'll be OK in a few weeks. I learned from the grow questions that auto flowers grow better and bigger in pure coco with perlite, but i have mix soil/coco/perlite in my pots. Now I nervous if all will be OK. But my substrate is soft (tapped it with my finger) even when it's watered. We'll see how it'll go compared to others diaries of the same strain.

She is really stacking the Buds. Absolute pleasure to watch her develop D58: Feeding 4l D60: Feeding 4l. Switched to Overdrive. Minimal foxtailing is forming D63: Feeding 4l.

Almost 2 weeks into flower now and things are starting to look good . The ladies got a nice shape to them looking nice and healthy they have grow a little but not much this past week I can say thats likely due to formation of flowers and getting ready for her last big stretch . All in all things are looking up in the garden cant wait to see what the future holds for me Thanks for reading ! -Happy Growing!
