Buds are stacking and filling up they’re definitely starting to wreak but I’m thinking these nugs will be nice and solid. I still feel the need to pluck a few leaves what do you guys think

So the symptoms in plant 1 have slowed down significantly, and she's gone back to swelling those buds! So I'm optimistic there! Plant 2, as many white pistils as she has (probably 40 or so % darkened, hard to see in pics) her trichomes say its time! For this plant anyway, i want this one to be mostly white, next one maybe 30% amber! As it sits, she's about 85 milky and the rest amber with a few clear stragglers. Not gonna fret because I have tried her, and she's good! A small branch off of 2 broke when moving 1 to flush her, so I trimmed it and set it on my pc to quick dry lol. 4.4 grams went on, 1.2 came off, and I rolled a fatty. It tasted good, which was fascinating to me, didn't taste like hay at all! And the high was phenomenal. So I'm gonna chop her up tonight! Plant 1 has a few weeks yet, I'm hoping they go smoother than the last couple lol. Until next time, happy growing farm-fam!

Shortly after they were switched to flowering (after week 3) the plants continue to stretch and then start to develop their first flowers. Now in week 7 all plants have very nice flower clusters all over the plant and side branches. They have grown to 45 cm (=Shiva Skunk on left side) and 40 cm (Serious Kush on right side of aisle) in height respectively and all plants have a nice dark green color, which shows they are healthy and also that the Advanced Nutrients schedule works like a treat. The Q6W-Gen.2 LED-Lamps are now dimmed to 100% (=three green LEDs on the dimmer) and work on FULL POWER, which ensures full fledged flower production. Both varieties have now started to exude their typical aroma. The Shiva Skunk starts to smell musky and sweet, while the Serious Kush smells 'gassy' and 'fuely' like its OG-Kush heritage. The flower clusters on the Serious Kush appear to grow denser than the clusters on the Shiva Skunk.

Ya entramos en la 4º semana y que feliz estoy😃 A pesar del mal tiempo, la pequeña Zami aguantó bastante bien y con muy buenos resultados para lo que cabía esperar 💪 Ella ha estado dentro de casa cada día de lluvia y cada día nublado pero con su aporte de luz correspondiente 😎 Tengo que decir que cada día leo más y más sobre el cultivo de estas bellezas y cada vez estoy más enamorado de ellas y con muchas ganas de comenzar diferentes proyectos 😍 Como digo, estoy aprendiendo muchísimo sobre este arte y poco a poco vamos a ir aumentando la información a medida que vaya aprendiendo cosas 😎 Esta semana, tuve la suerte de comprar un termo-higrómetro para controlar tanto la temperatura como la humedad y un medidor de PH y EC para el control del agua y los nutrientes 🙌 Por suerte, esta nueva semana vienen buenos tiempos y mucho sol, con temperaturas en exterior de 25-28ºC (77-82,4ºF) y HR de 40-60% 👏 Sus noches, ella duerme en un cuarto totalmente a oscuras durante 10h sin ninguna interrupción de luz y con una temperatura controlada de 20ºC (68ºF) y HR 50%. No puedo darle más horas de luz porque no puedo controlar el sol 😅 cuando pueda controlarlo os lo comunico 😆 Por otro lado, su PH Sigue correcto, por el momento PH 6 así que intentaré mantenerlo por ahora. Contiene una EC de 1.4 (700 PPM) por lo que también estoy feliz. Iremos aumentando esta a medida que vaya creciendo y pidiendo más. Por el momento va perfecto 👌 Siempre me gusta comentar que “Zami” escucha música todos los días y se la ve muy contenta y agradecida. También la cuento historias aunque no estoy seguro si me viene mejor a mí que a ella 😂 el caso es que tenemos muy buena relación, yo hablo y ella escucha 😊 Esta semana la toca cambiar a la maceta geotextil 11L de Zamnesia. Es cierto que a ella no la gustan los trasplantes y puede que se estrese un poco, pero su casa ahora es demasiado pequeña (3-4L) para crecer fuerte y sana 😕 Esperemos que responda bien al cambio y no sufra mucho. El cambio se debería haber hecho antes, pero no tenía la maceta y tuve que improvisar 😥 Os iré mostrando la evolución 😇 Muchísimas gracias por seguirme y una vez más, cualquier consejo será bien recibido 😉 Los mejores Grow para todos ustedes y que siga la crianza 🙌🙌 MUCHO HUMO ACTUALIZACIONES DIARIAS: Día 22: La pequeña está empezando a coger mas fuerza por cada momento y está pidiendo mas agua. Hemos aumentado de 0.3l/día a 0.5l/día dándola un pequeño aporte de nutrientes 2 veces a la semana en cantidad de 1ml/l 💪 Día 23: Hoy se ha levantado mas contenta y bien espigada, lo que me hace madrugar y levantarme de muy buen humor cuando la veo 😍 es una maravilla. Hoy el día se presenta muy bueno con temperaturas entre 18-30ºC y HR entre 30-70%. El sol a salido desde las 7 a.m y durará hasta las 9 p.m (14h de sol). Día 24: He regulado el pH del agua a 6 exactos para tener una mejor conductividad de los nutrientes ya que hemos aumentado el PPM a 800. se la ve muy sana y feliz. Hoy a empezado a oler muy muy rico, pero todavía muy suave. Está empezando a dar sus primeros pasos de adulta 😄 Día 25: La pequeña Zami crece sin parar y parece que responde bien a la subida de EC. El tiempo esta jugando a nuestro favor con unas temperaturas bastante buenas que se mantienen entre 25-30ºC. Ella comenzó la semana con 8cm de altura y en mitad de su cuerta semana tiene 12cm 👌 Día 26: Es increíble el crecimiento que esta llevando a cabo. Acaba de sacar sus primeros pistilos con lo cual parece que esta respondiendo bastante bien a su cuidado. Una maravilla 😊 Día 27: El ritmo de crecimiento sigue siendo muy bueno, los pistilos siguen aumentando. Me preocupa unas manchas que le han salido en las hojas inferiores que no se muy bien como identificar, esperemos que no sea nada 🙏 Día 28: Parece seguir creciendo sin ningún tipo de problemas y las manchas no van en exceso. Todo va sobre ruedas y el olor es una auténtica maravilla. Deseando ver de lo que es capaz esta Gorilla Glue de Zamnesia y con muchas ganas de empezar su 1° semana en floración. Espero que siga portandose como hasta ahora 😊

That is my 2nd grow, so i tried some Lst. I use two tents and change positions depending on needs and size of the plants. I did half a Pack of "Monster Bud Mix" (Zamnesia) in the soil, now i feed little amount of Plagron (i dont feed every watering). She made no bigger problems (sometimes she showed signs of lightstress, iguess - i am still figuring out why), but i am a noob in this game and others would have better results. From day to day she looks more delicious. In all i like the result of this strain. 1 of 1 germinated august 28th.

Annnnnnnnnd FLIP. Switched to flowering 2 days ago. they are growing unbelievably fast right now its incredible. She is one healthy flourishing plant thats for sure!!! So she has kind of blended in with her friends for the time being but soon the flowers will distinguish them again. I'm expecting some nice thick flowers from this lady. Very excited to see how flowering goes with my first seeds from sweet seeds! Will tuck and do and do a big defoil for the last time this week and then let the ladies basically do their thing for the next 2 months. I proactively trimmed off all the lower nodes earlier so the under canopy is basically already clear. The only odd thing I did notice was all the ladies seem to have smaller main "trunks" than normal yet they seem extremely healthy. ah well lets see how flowering goes!!

The time is finally here to post the harvest. I waited till it was all done and dry before updating the dairy so will add in the dry weights next on the 2nd half of the harvest entry. Had some ups and downs with this plant. mainly the extreme yellowing that was happening. I should have treated this faster with a flush but was super reluctant and I feel this has suffered in the end. The top best looking buds could have been larger and the lower ones could have been thicker. There is some smells with this plant but they are not pronounced. Just smells like mild basic weed, this would be one reason not to grow it, however, the crystals on this plant have been the most I've ever grown before. When trimming them every time the scissors snipped or the brush stroked I saw some falling down onto the tray. This plant would be great for making hash. had a good little ball of finger hash at the end of it and will be giving that to my friends to smoke or make a strong edible with. I don't plan on growing this strain out again, the lack of smells and the fact I'm only trying to grow cbd dominate plants is the main reason. If my friends really like this I have some clones so can always give them some. Speaking of clones they are doing well outside, greened up a lot and showing signs of revegging. Took some photos of the weed hang drying on day 1 in the tent and a week later to show how much they shrink. most of the lower growth is quite larfy but will make good edibles or hash, that will be a fun project to do and may include that in my projects diary. That's about all I can think of if you have any questions just ask. m0use Disclaimers: 1. I have divided the total watts of light in half, 300w(150w) for this diary. It will accurately reflect the g/w ratio as the two plants growing in this tent are listed in two separate diaries. 2. I include any shake/trim in my gross totals as I use them to make edibles. 3. I did not follow any proper ways of listing my nutrients. Some are ml/l of total solution watered, others ml/l of total medium and some are just the total amounts I added, not as a ratio.

I converted the cents into dollar amounts beforehand to avoid dividing by 100. 8.2c/h = 0.082$/h 438h * 0.17c/kwh = $74.46kw * 0.15kw = $11.17 on peak 522h * 0.113c/kwh = $58.99kw *0.15kw = $8.85 mid peak 1,272h * 0.082c/kwh = $104.30kw *0.15kw = $15.65 off peak The "h" hours and "kw" kilowatts cancel out and we are left with a value of $ dollars per peak period, add all the peak periods up and you get your total cost of running the lights in dollars. $11.17 + $8.85 + $15.65 = $35.67 for the grow light only. My light grew for 20 weeks and 4 days, or 144 days. almost 21 weeks total. $35.67 / 144d = 0.2477$/d average of about 25c a day in electricity 337.2kw for the entire grow. Using the regular calculation of grams harvested divided by watts used is not accurate to me, it does not account for all the time the lamps are on, the length of grow to the over all cost. The calculation that makes sense to me is this, harvested dry weight of usable cannabis buds/trim/keif/whatever in grams divided by total kw used. Could also combine it with grams per total single use costs “anything you used only for this grow and wont reuse in the next, or fractions of multi use items like fertilizers if they ½ full” and see how much you’re investing per gram. "kw" ÷ "g" = kw/g "$" ÷ "g" = $/g I have harvested 5.34oz or 151.6g on 337.2kw. 337.2kw ÷151.6g = 2.22 kw/g of usable cannabis. This is not an ideal ratio for me and looks like a lot of energy waste happened from the extended veg period. $35.67 ÷ 151.6g = 0.24c/g It cost 24c/g when comparing total electricity cost to gross yield, almost identical to the comparison of total electrical cost to the number of days in the grow 25c/day. Neat! legend, kwh = kilowatt per hour kw = kilowatt w = watt h = hour c = cents $ = dollars d = day LED= Light Emitting Diode

So first run back and we finished. Happy with the results but know I could have done a lot better. But overall like this strain. It puts out about .9 grams of rosin for every 7g smashed. Taste good and smooth. Burns white. Lower thc effects but I think having my lights to strong late harvest was more the issue.

Week 5 begins! Mandarin dreams 1 & 2 are doing well, however MD1 stinks like shit 💩 and MD2 has a mild earthy smell. Increased feeding to 5 liters per plant and did some defoliation of the yellowing leaves. Moved the ladies to the other side of the room for the rest of the grow. Thanks for stopping by 👽🌳🔥

Autoflowers Update 🌱⚡ One of the autos is clearly ahead of the others, showing faster progress in its flowering stage 🌸. It’s exciting to see the difference in growth rates between them! I had a small issue with the light, which caused some slight leaf burn 🔥🍃 — you can see it in the video too. Nothing serious, though, and the plants are still looking healthy and happy overall. 💪🌿 Can’t wait to see how they develop over the next couple of weeks! 🚀.

Good day to all my friends and visitors here on GD. Decided to finally finish this diary, I took my time with his one ;) Now we cut the second POGP auto plant, the first cut you can find in week 17. The plant from week 17 weighted 660g. wet, this one finished at 1,85kg. wet. The girls where autoflower but thanks to me starting this grow in cold day temps (14 degree Celsius) the started flower really late, maybe that's also the reason for all my problems with this strain during the grow?! The two plants where different phenotypes, the smaller one (from Week 17)though small had nice hard flowers, the bigger one as the only plant from four I grew during the growop started foxtailing. Both of them branched nicely the smell was quite strong and awoul xD like gasoline and something rotten, it smelled so bad i checked a couple times under microscope for any signs of mold in the flower and to my suprise I found nothing. Thank God later during drying the smell would subdue to a more generic "hazediesel" smell -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SE7000 done it's magic with this grow as with all my other grow ops. For anyone who is interested in obtaining this efficient and affordable light fixture ($ to gram) here's the link: https://spider-farmer.com/products/spider-farmer-upgraded-se7000-730w-commercial-led-grow-light/ A shout out to SSSC for the gift of genetics: supersativaseedclub.com/ Thank you all for your companionship on this voyage, I hope you enjoyed it at least as much as I did. Also thank you for this awesome year together here.

Everything is still alive thankfully and smells fuckin tremendous. The pictures were taken on day 49 or 50. I'll probly start flushing some of them over the next week the citradellic are lookin close. They kinda all look close even tho I expected some 70 dayers with the mostly sativa crosses but I gotta get in there and check the trichs.

Stretch is finally rounding out and it’s time to start stacking buds. They loved the little defoliation.. light is at 400 watts it’s too hot for full power and probably too much light anyway
