📋 Grow Diaries: Week 12 Log – The Organic Pivot The Durban Poison crew DP1, DP4, DP5, and DP6 is officially off the bottle. Running short on liquid vegetative nutrients forced a shift in the garden strategy, and the decision was made to ditch the synthetic/liquid lines completely in favor of a 100% organic, microbe-rich regimen. The immediate explosion of new vegetative tops proving that these pure sativa genetics thrive when fed naturally on the deck. The Feeding Regimen: Castings & Kelp The Top-Dress:** Two days ago, the entire quartet received a heavy top-dressing of pure worm castings across their 25-gallon root zones, providing a slow-release blanket of nitrogen, micronutrients, and humic acids. Today's Feeding: Followed up today with a rich sea kelp drench. The liquid kelp acts as a perfect complement to the castings, packing the soil with natural cytokinins and auxins to stimulate lateral branching and provide environmental stress protection against the intense high-plains UV and wind. The Reaction: The response was instantaneous. New tops are aggressively forming across all four canopies, pushing vibrant, healthy green growth from the inner nodes outward. 🌿 Individual Plant Progress & Observations DP1 (The Lattice Frontier) Satus: The central shoots have officially reached the lower edge of the bamboo-mounted elastic lattice. She isn't quite tall enough to begin tucking horizontally yet, so the plan is to let her poke through by 2–3 inches before naturally guiding her growth outward to open up the canopy space. DP4 (The Main-Line Grid) Status: Symmetrical tops are reaching straight for the sky next to the railing irrigation hub. The kelp feeding today is providing excellent structural flexibility to the main stems, preparing them beautifully to expand into the lower grid squares. DP6 (The Low-Stress Explosion) Status:Displaying phenomenal reaction to the new organic diet. Tied down aggressively with twine to the fabric pot handles, the flattened canopy has allowed the worm castings and kelp to force hidden lower nodes straight to the surface, creating an incredibly bushy profile loaded with fresh tops. DP5 (The Canopy Leader) Status: Massive, dense, and wide. DP5 is completely capitalizing on the 25-gallon container volume, showing thick stalks and wide fan leaves that are taking full advantage of today's microbial wash. ⚙️ Deck Infrastructure & Logistics Status:*The entire layout is locked in. The automated watering lines are perfectly dialed to wash the top-dressed nutrients down into the pots, the wheeled dollies are making plant rotation effortless, and the companion marigolds are holding down pest security on the perimeter. The large white mixing bucket is staying active at the ready for the organic tea brews. Grower's Note: Moving away from liquid nutrients was a forced play, but the sheer speed at which these plants are forming new tops demonstrates that living soil biology is exactly what this Durban Poison lineage wanted. Canopy training will continue as they naturally expand into their spaces next week. Update 6.6.2026: Recieved a camera to keep a close eye on the girls. 😳💪

I love this strain cant wait till she finished. Never done it by crop king before. Not to familiar with there genetics. Heard there pretty good and have some dank.

Another easy week. Bud and trichome production seem to be on point. This plant is truly maxed. She is 18 inches with about 12 inches being above the scrog screen. She stretched a little more than expected. She was supercropped in several location and didn't skip a beat. Obviously, the angle of my camera doesn't give the whole picture. But now there's some buds that can be watched in development. I'm fighting night time humidity. My little Vivosun dehumidifier can't keep up. Likely a future upgrade as I'm sure I'll struggle to get to 50% with lights on next week. Temps when my light off could ideally be lower as well. Not enough that I see the need to invest into anything like an A/C. Loving to see the little bits of purple start to come out. I'm sure lower night temps would amplify that. I did a final top dress of Build-A-Flower, an 1/8 cup of Craft Blend, and a topping of Kashi followed by a half gallon watering with the listed nutrients once at the beginning of the week.

The Number's; Started with; 564g Wet on the Scale Finished with; 263g Dried Flower. Plus some Pollen for a Personal project.. IMO; Definitely decent yields for a pheno hunt. Two tents filled with Pheno 3... would be OFF the Chart yields :) That is coming soon ! Big Thanks to EVERYONE who stopped in to support this diary.. your the real MVP's Until Next Time, Cariboo.

Pruned it. Needs more frequent water but looks green and healthy. Smells like coriander not diesel or yucky yet heheh.

Venga familia que ya viene la cosecha de estas Pink Runtz de RoyalQueenSeeds , que ganas que tenia ya de darles machetazo. No veas que pinta que tienen estas plantas. Las flores aparte se ven bien resinosas, y con unos tonos muy llamativos. a sido una genética con la que disfruté mucho cultivarla, es algo complicada cultivarla pero merece la pena si eres cultivador con experiencia no te será problema cosechar. Hasta aquí es todo , espero que lo disfrutéis, buenos humos 💨💨.

Well all is good and moving along.. remember its more like week 9 now. i will start flushing in a few days maybe

09 October 2018 - Day 106 Crystal was trimmed and nugs left for a week to fill out. 10 October 2018 - Day 107 pH good 11 October - 2018 - Day 108 Kolas are dense and thick 12 October 2018 - Day 109 Removed from Tent and hung. 13 October 2018 - Day 110 Drying nicely , Humidifier added . 14 October 2018 - Day 111 Further trimmed and added to discs for overall ventilation 15 October 2018 Day 112 Rotating Tiers to make sure we dry evenly

Comecei uma semana realizando o treinamento de baixo estresse e uma desfoliação. Não fiz poda top, não acho que seja adequado para plantas rápidas. Vamos ver como vai ser o resultado. Não pretendo mais fazer intervenções no crescimento. A pequena lá do fundo não vou mexer .

Der Stretch neigt sich dem Ende zu und das Netz wurde entfernt – beide Pflanzen stehen jetzt stabil und frei im Raum. Nach dem Lösen des ScroG zeigt sich deutlich, wie kräftig die Struktur aufgebaut wurde: dicke Stämme, starke Seitentriebe und ein gleichmäßiges, volles Blätterdach. 24K Gold reagiert mit einem beeindruckenden Stretch-Finish. Ihre Haupttriebe sind kräftig und leicht über dem Restniveau, perfekt verteilt für maximale Lichtausbeute. Die ersten Blütenansätze sind klar zu erkennen – kleine weiße Härchen schießen an allen Spitzen hervor. Gelato 33 bleibt etwas gedrungener, aber sehr kompakt und buschig. Ihre Top-Sites sind gleichmäßig verteilt und zeigen ebenfalls die ersten Pistillen. Das entfernte Netz hat ihr Raum gegeben, sich frei nach oben zu entfalten. Eine gezielte Entlaubung wurde vorgenommen, um die unteren Bereiche zu öffnen und die Luftzirkulation zu optimieren. Das Laub ist tiefgrün und gesund – keine Mängel oder Verbrennungen sichtbar. Düngung & Werte: • 💧 Canna Coco A + B → 6 ml/l • 📈 EC: 1.6  pH: 5.8 • 🌡️ Temperatur: 25–26 °C • 💧 Luftfeuchtigkeit: 50–55 % • 💨 Umluft: stark & konstant • 💦 Tropfbewässerung mit kontrolliertem Drain Der Fokus liegt nun voll auf Blütenbildung – die Pflanzen stehen stabil, haben den Stretch abgeschlossen und beginnen mit sichtbarem Blütenaufbau. Ein sehr kräftiger Start in die Hauptblütephase!

08/29/2018 Been a hot week but the girls don't seem to mind,90s in the day 82° at night and sticky,muggy weather. Their leaves all pointing ☝️,lets me know they are happy ☺️ .watered with plain water they were pretty dry pots weight was very light. Will feed and water in in morning sleep well and medicated😎 08/31/2018 Just a note today #1 is very green compared to the other 4 plants, could be potted plants running low on nitrogen? My soil has plenty according to soil test. I know last year's crop in soil was pale like other 4 plants, maybe biochar is helping soil retain it's nutes better? Year 2 for biochar, first year could have tied up some nutes....hmmm? Ps Last feeding today Fox farms big bloom at heavy feeder dose 1/2 cup per gallon, should see nice gains this week! 🙏🙏🙏. Pss. G GTH #4 loosing her smells, #3 smells of Skunk and coffee ☕,#2 minty chlorophyll orange,#1 menthal,skunky but very lite scent. Should I pollinate a branch of each? Oh my God the pressure! Do I have enough pollen? Oh sorry for rambling on just smoked lemon sour diesel and thoughts very racy😀 Got to garden see you next week 😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎

Oh yeah!!!! Apple Strudel is finishing strong 💪. Her buds have swollen up nicely, are a beautiful lime green & super frosty. She smells really potent! Started to flush her a couple days ago so she'll be getting the chop here in a few days. Excited to see how she taste after a dry & cure.

Hey guys, Like I said last week, this week was another cold rainy week. Discoverd some budrot on my Shamans, but not mayor problems. Therefore I decided to Harvest my Shamans at the end of this week. Knowing that in the upcomming weeks it will get even more colder, more rain and more bud rot. Luckly I only gave them water and one time with Humic-Blast and enzym+. Thats not a proper flush but better then full nutrients in the soil/plant. If it wasn't for the colder climate, i would had let them flower for another 1 to 2 weeks because they really started to thicken and the flowers were swelling. But at the end i rather have smokable buds then budrot buds,,, Weather for the upcomming week is 70% to 92% rain with 11-14 degrees Celcius and at night even 7-9 celcius. So there is no point by risking all of my buds to rot, in hope for some swelling which may never come with this colds The Critical Kushes where in their 4th week of flowering, going into the 5th. I have no other choice to keep them at least for another 2-4 weeks, lets see how it goes. I don't mind spending nutrients on maybe a lost cost. Somehow GD minimalize the videos after putting 10pictures on the diary, Just click on the next picture and click on the right arrow to go to the videos. See yall next week :)

Pulled 8 7-9g colas on the first struggler, well short of my qp per-plant goal. Ill increase my plant and yield count as I pull the rest. Still have 2 more plants that ahve gone another week and didnt miss the feed this one did. Hopefully we still get at least ~10oz from this run :(

Started getting rather bushy very quickly. Those big green fan leaves at the bottom were touching the soil, so I pruned them off to get some more node growth going.

Moin, kurzer Stand der Dinge: Hier drinnen aktuell ordentlich warm, bis 30 Grad in der Box, aber alles noch entspannt und unter Kontrolle. Die Ladys riechen momentan extrem — fast so wie meine Achseln bei dem Wetter. Sie werden richtig schön harzig, mehr als vorher, und legen gut an Masse zu. So langsam fangen die Blätter an gelb zu werden, sie ziehen sich ihre letzten Reserven. Man merkt, es geht langsam dem Ende entgegen. Die FBC zeigt schon überall ein bisschen Bernstein. Ich geb den Mädels insgesamt noch so zwei Wochen, mal gucken, was noch geht.

Getting it ready for the SCROG

Very busy have some white Dynamite seedlings started for hopefully more feminised strains. My dream is to open a seed company and become the best seed supplier! Thanks for the views. Seeds should be on eBay by tommorow (regular ones)
