Ending 9 weeks of flowering and decided to chop these girls down. Maybe could of gone another week but I didn’t like the foxtailing and new growth goin on some of them. Trim bud shots in this order (1st 4 pictures) Durban Poison Strawberry Cough Super Lemon Haze Chocolope The shear weight of the Durban Poison stem was incredible. I took a trimmed wet weight of that bud in the picture and it weighed 2.75oz. I usually reduce to 25% of wet weight after drying and removing stem. This was the biggest but others were not far behind. Very awesome and easy to trim. Great weed, strong unique sent to it. Not a single air bud. Rock solid stems Strawberry Cough just fell everywhere when moved out. Everything was well supported but the stems were not strong enough to hold the weight of the monster buds. This stretched about 500% or more during flowering. Trimming not so bad. Everything was rock solid. No air buds. Oh the smell once we started trimming. Strawberry, no shit. Strong strawberry. Sissor hash....strawberries. It easily overwhelmed the Durban quick once we opened her up Super Lemon Haze. This one too couldn’t support its own weight. If I had a disappointment this grow this was it, but I can’t complain. This plant didn’t get as far and tight as others but grew long. Buts are nice no doubt. No air buds here. All were solid. The smell....Lemon, not as strong as the other 2 but it was there and I. The scissor hash. Chocolope. This was the next day. Very strong stems, no leaning here. Buds were heavy and hard. Reminding me of some chocolate dessert with an earthy smell. Found a few air buds down low but this one was bigger than I thought. Trimming was a little harder and slower on this one. Yup I love my scissor hash as I go. Roots were well established and healthy with lots of space this time around. 5gal buckets work way better Few more pictures of my keif extraction Got between 3-4gm of keif from each plant smoking a lot as I go too. Yup! 🤗 each so unique in its smells, but everyone a wake-n-bake all day keep you going stuff. Took a bowl of northern lights to wind me down last night after a whole day of smoking this keif. Dry totals to come

Week 8 Day 5 of flowering 10 hours of reduced light seemed to help with the new pistil growth a little. Still got new growth out the sides. Not use to growing such Sativa dominate strains, but I don’t like side growth like this. They had 2 flushes now with flawless finish, nothing left in that soil, runoff is about 50ppm. My RO water going in is 12ppm. Think it’s getting real close to chopping these girls. They only get 10 hours of my 300 watt(150w from wall) and 100w from wall of deep red boosters. They usually get about 500w from the wall of LED. Dropped daytime temps to barely 70 with night going to 59. Trying hard to only ripen these nugs Took the picture just before lights on this morning. So much better with white light taking pictures Bud shots in order Rear L - Chocolope Front L - Durban Poison Rear R - Strawberry Cough Front R - Super Lemon Haze

Start of week 9 of flowering Started flushing, (couple days ago) Reduced light timing to 14/10 Also reduced amount of full spectrum light Continuing with red LED boosters Daytime temp 73 Nighttime temp 60 (cold as I can get it, usually shoot for 58-59) Girls looking very nice, super solid compact buds. Noticed some foxtailing of new pistils on the Chocolope, SLH, and SC, which is why I went to the 14/10, and reduced lighting. Trichomes are cloudy with about 20% clear. Flushing done with Flawless Finish by AD. All RO water from now till finish, which could be anytime now. Smelling great but the Durban Poison is dominate, which is heavenly. Last 4 bud shots in order.... Far left - Chocolope Front Left - Durban Poison Far right - Strawberry Cough Front right - super Lemon Haze

Beginning week 8 for flowering Buds are swelling and getting heavy. Strawberry Cough and especially the lemon haze are leaning all over. I been supporting the branches. First grow I ever had to do the but they are Sativas. Durban and Chocolope are very solid and strong. The smells? Yeah... 🤩 Moving to a 11/13 schedule. Last week I was on a 11.5/12.5. Still 1-2 weeks out. Might do one more feeding for the Durban then flush. Bud shot order....(last 4 photos) Chocolope Durban Poison Strawberry Cough Super Lemon Haze

Start of week 7 of flowering Girls are looking good. No issues or problems. Durban is looking like it will be finishing first, 2 more weeks maybe. Looking and smelling incredible Bud pics in order Chocolope. left back Durban Poison. Left front Strawberry Cough. Right back Super Lemon Haze. Right front

Beginning week 6 of Flower Left back - Chocolope Right back - Strawberry Cough Front left - Durban Poison Front right - Super Lemon Haze Moved plants around a little. Durban looks like it might be first. Getting excited, smells are starting to develop. Durban and Strawberry smelling real good. Hell they all smell good. Durban is the runt of the Group. Came from a clone and didn’t have a whole lot of veg time Slowly removing bigger fan leaves as the get in the way. No issues, feeding as normal. 1 gal per plant every 3-4 days with about 10-20% runoff. Low 40s humidity with 75 daytime temp, 64 night Individual shots of buds are in the plant order of list above

Flower: Day 28 Durban Poison: back left Strawberry Cough: back right Chocolope: front left Super Lemon Haz: fronti right Just completed the 4th week of flower. Very pleased. Humidity sitting low 40s. I’m happy with that. Running daytime temps 75 and night time 64 Meanwhile a legal bull appeared 50yards from my backdoor. Hunting season is soon!

Flower: Day 22 Girls growing nicely. Don’t look like it but I cut off quite a bit. Mostly down low, clearing out the small buds, and thinking out up top. Nowhere near my last grow. All 4 of these are sativa’s so they are thinner by nature. Strawberry Cough (back right)is massive. All others are elevated up to the same level. Next biggest is the Chocolope(front left). Lemon Haze is front right. Durban Poison is back left, the smallest but it’s from clone and started late. Lights are all the way to the top of the tent so hope these ladies stop stretching Humidity back under control. New fan and keeping dehumidifier keeping the basement low. Still venting outside. Avg 42% humidity with 75 degrees.

Day 16 of flowering Plants doing very well. The stretch has been crazy. Everything doubled or tripled in size in 2 week. Did some pruning today and removing of air buds and lower ones. Humidity has been a major issue. With 60-99% outside it’s been bad inside. Had to retrofit my dehumidifier. Now it’s at high 30% at 77 degrees

Flower Day 1 Yup decided just to flower these. Odd grow, they are very short. Probably too much light. New flowering lights. In addition to the 1500watt full spectrum LED(300watt from the wall) I got a total of another 112watts from the wall of pure red LEDs. Never used the red LEDs Plants are doing great. Another nice canopy forming. Probably can’t tell from last update cause they were growing so fast, I did a good pruning today and some lollipoping. Nothing like last grow.

Been a while since I updated, or even checked here. I been busy, Alaska summers are short and lots to do. If only my back could take advantage of the 23 hours of light we have. Nothing major going on, just veg growing. They all got topped once and a little low stress training. Strawberry Cough is the monster, it only has a once day start over the other 2. Small one is the Durban Poison clone.

Ok. Girls have a new home. All transplanted to 5 gal containers. All doing very well. Just letting them grow a little. All have been topped except the Durban Poison clone who is a little behind

Well they are growing working on 5th node, 4th on the smaller. Light is up to 90% white CoD and blues at about 16” Trying to keep temp up in the freezer cause I trying hard right now to keep my basement at 60 degrees so my flowering plants don’t get too warm right next door in a tent Keeping temp in the low 80s cause I’m using a CO2 bag(not worth it, IMO). However in a closed off area that’s so small and being a chest freezer where the CO2 falls it might actually give off some CO2 for the plants. They are also on a 24 hour lights. Mainly for the clone and to keep constant warm temps in there. Popped off the dome on the Durban Poison, she was dropping last couple days but now has perked up. Hoping cause it’s roots took hold. Seeing how she does

I moved them Down to my chest freezer that I am not using. Insulated and reflective surface. My basement is dry 35% humidity so I added a bigger water tray under the individual pot saucers so the plants won’t take in the water. Worked awesome till I had to then up the lamp and open the space a little. So I added a rag hanging out of a container of water near the small fan. Now I’m back over 50% humidity. Not ideal but good enough As you see I had a little issue with discoloring of the leaves. So like an idiot I took my CO2 bag that was useless in my other grow area and put it in here with the seedlings(seemed like a good idea) Maybe levels got too high in there because co2 falls. Could be that, or this light on Veg mode only, or the light too bright. It’s not soil related, can’t be. I gave it a first dose of nutrients, half of what’s recommended at this stage...but that was after this happened. Still need to give them a good run off feeding. I been waiting for the soil to dry out a little more So CO2 bag is out, backed the light off a bit to 18”. Started using the red LEDs like I always done. They do help a little even in veg I read. Thinking about a shot of cal/mag or even a little as foliage spray. Just dunno what caused it. And the very last picture is my 4th plant in this grow. Hello Durban Poison. It’s a clone and got put under humidity dome after the picture. Unlike its mother it’s not giving off tri-leafs anymore

I adjusting the start date to get more of an average. Actual age is the lemon haze. StrawberryCough is a day older and the Chocolope is a day younger. Gave them a week dose of Voodoo Juice and B52. I’ll wait till I see the 2nd set of leaves before I give base Nutes All are doing well and will go to weekly updates. My Banana Kush better be done in 3 weeks. These suckers wanna grow. Chocolope seed sprouted in one day direct germination in soil. Others were 2 days. ILGM seeds. Had great lunch with their seeds The ChocoDope. It decided not to turn its tap root down. It was growing its tap root straight up 1/4” above the soil. Total tap root was almost an inch. Did a risky move and dug it up gently and turned it around. It pushed right up few hours later Unsure of this CoD led light I’m using, so I’m keeping the power down on it. However it on pure veg mode with reds turned off What’s awesome about this veg stage is a almost forgot about my other ladies. They have gotten so fat!

Hello baby girls and welcome to this world!! Ok, both have now popped up. The Lemon haze broke its seed and popped up sometime last night. Strawberry is looking good I’m shocked both these Sativa dominate strains both germinated in 2 days I decided to add a Chocolope to the grow, then maybe a Durban Poison clone in the next week or two( I hope, mother plant is too small now) I can get 6 plants in this tent, but it crowded and so much easier to work with 4
