13 AUG. One rose is smaller than others, but growing. Might be overwatering it. No more water for her!!!

Still BOMB looks like the biggest one

And I tried to FIM one Diesel Drift. Not sure if done it correctly, it is trickier than topping, after few days gonna top another Drift and on sep 1 going to flowering.

My FIMmed plant:

What do you people think?

Looks like I am the only following my journal :/

I think you're doing a good job, overall. And as far as yield, you should get at least 30 ounces, and maybe more, But a lot depends on the strains , and I know nothing about your particular strains.if you can control the growing environment, with respect to temp. & rh. I'm not sure what the compost was made from, and if you added anything to the coco, when mixing. But for their age, I'd say It's working for you. But now's the time to give them some of the pk booster, with a mixture of grow & bloom. I'm unfamiliar with that brand . i'd do like 1/2 of recommended amounts. They're going to be happy to get some nutrients !! Me personally, I would trim all the biggest fan leaves, leaving the medium size ones to finish with. But that's just my preference. Also, Be really careful using that pk booster. (Less is more ) You're going to more than double, what you was shooting for !! Good luck !! Welcome to 420 Mag. !!

I am giving em that PK booster for about a week from now. i defolited black russian and now will leave it as it is. I was groing in simmillar soil previous grow and tried autos, to this one i only added extra perlite and vermiculite. Yeaah it works, I will post some photos later today it is exactly 21d when they r 12/12

17 SEP. Exactly 21 day when 12/12. Going to a week 4! Done final touches: defoliated and a little bit of lst + straight after stressing my ladies PK boost + Bloom nutes. Take a look:

russian stayed inside as i defoliated her yesterday now just gonna give them food and watch. My job with scissors is done till the end. will update my j

18 Sep. Just a quick shot of my ladies. Looks so beautiful... i have temps @ about 32c, but it doesn’t feel hot, maybe because of a fan blowing under cooltube. Humidity ~50%.

 

[spliffas]

20 SEP. 24th day when 12/12. Repositioned my ladies, gave them pk + bloom nutes. Looks so wonderful...
back wall team:
Diesel topped - rose - rose defol - diesel fimmed.
Front doors team:
Russian - ninja - bomb

Green Ninja is on it’s peak. Wonderful budz. Let’s wait and see what others does. ^^ some pictures:

21 SEP. Nothing very special happening in my garden. 25th day when 12/12 and what I noticed and just wanted to show... my Green Ninja is definetly the biggest one now and it started showing some purple tones! :0 + defol yellow leaves off russian... and green ninja:

 

[spliffas]

22 SEP. 26 day when 12/12. Russian lost lots of yellowish lower grow and it looks like something’s wrong with her. Not very sure, but did an experiment. 0.5ml grow + pk boost 0.7ml on 1l + pk boost 0.5l 1ml on 1l. Gave only PK boost 1l to defoliated SBR as saw red stems appearing. Might be because they r roses. And PK boost 1ml on 1l 0.5l to my soo much loved Ninja. Tomorrow will feed as usual and will have an eye on those on which I gave PK booster only. Still trying to figure out best position for my ladies. Now they are like that:

Back - - drift - rose raw - rose defoliated - drift
Front - - ninja - bomb - russian

Lamp is 45cm away from highest top and about 50cm away from smallest branch.

Temps ~ 27-30, sometimes 31-32 but very rarely, when hot outside. I managed to lower humidity to about ~45% and lowered that fan which one was uder cooltube. It looks like it gives slight shadow on drift’s top (left corner), but now that fan not even blows away all the heat under hps but also lightly touches tops of my ladies.

Just roses:

 

[spliffas]

26 SEP. 30d when 12/12. Roses shows purple stems and yellowing leaves, russian is curly and slow growing. Tested ph - no good. Ordered ph downer, tomorrow will recieve, I hope this will fix my issues. Plants of today looks like:

and russian bottom one, upper one is diesel drift:

3 OCT. accidently broke deift’s branch, not worrying this time, as it is nothing compared how I broke my ninja, only difference is that i broke diesel on it’s flowering period, but it doesn’t look very bad, nor I can spot anything on buds / leaves after 24h. One SBR shows something, but dunno what. :x let’s hope they will be ok. Roses flowering time is 7-8wk 50-55d. And I am into 6th week of flowering. And I am willing to have harvest of roses after 8 weeks. So not much left, two weeks, this might be normal for them, m? Gave not phd feeding.

And ooh! My russian lives :3 i might need to give em more acidic nutes. Will check next feeding. And some pics:

 

[spliffas]

Started so good, ended so bad.

11 OCT. 45 day when 12 / 12 . Hoping for a new begining. Hunidity at night - shit. Bud rot is real. Lost one tiniest and lowest branch of black russian, lost one lowest branch and one top bud of bomb, lost main bud of dying SBR too. Saddest thing, I just harvested Green Ninja. Bud rot started with Green Ninja and today I noticed her main bud all in that shit... i destryed affected parts (luckily it was only one main bud)... pots started to dry, humidity got a bit lower, but it is raining outside!!! And have to be @work after an hour. Will buy an extra large fan and put it inside tent. Only 6 left, sbr not the healthiest one, need to maintain that bud rot till harvest or I will lose all my crop ((

Should be 20 when dried... soo unlucky.... (

 

[spliffas]

12 OCT. got fan. Left all fans at night, not much left to sweet finish. At least no that bud ro overnight waiting for ninja to dry

BACK:
< - DIESEL DRIFT — SUGAR BLACK ROSE — DIESEL DRIFT >

FRONT:
< - dying SUGAR BLACK ROSE — BLACK RUSSIAN — THC BOMB - >

They are drying a little, but I am afraid of humidity. Also, I ran out of BLOOM nutes, so I mixed PK BOOST and addeds few drops per 2l bottle. Shoud work as cannot get same bloom nutes Watered both of my roses, only gave 1l each, tomorrow will water another two and so on... and not so much to go. I don’t think that I will be able to keep my ladies until 5 nov, so thinking to extend dark perion on around oct 25 for 13-11

 

[spliffas]

15 OCT. Day 49 when 12/12. Bud rot striked again. Now I lost Black Russian’s head. Very sad about my losses. Not much left until harvest, started so nicely and ending by losing my crop. Bud rot was silent for few days... let’s hope my girls will be able to survive 2-3 more weeks... ;(((((

Black Russian without head:

And all my ladies...:

What to do? (

 

[spliffas]

Just lost another top of diesel drift...

 

[spliffas]

16 OCT. entered wk 8 ( day 50) when 12/12 . Added few more damp traps and defoliated my ladies. Hope it’s not too extreme at this time... Can’t let to lose more buds because of bud rot!!! Gone experimenting... Lowered lamp 2-4cm. Should be good now until harvest. Let’s hope for best!

How did this grow turn out?

We would love to be updated with some pictures and info.

How about posting a 420 Strain Review?

If you need any help with posting photos, please read our Photo Gallery Tutorial.

I am moving this to Abandoned Journals until we get updates.

Sending you lots of love and positive energy.

Hello, sorry for not updating my journal, thought rhat noone’s interested. ok, let’s finish this once and for all.

I killed my green ninja and smoked those white buds, potency was kinda low. Dried bud was ~20g from that plant and it needed thise 2-3 weeks.
I smoked branch after branch my dying rose unless something happened and she resurected to another life i think she gave me something around 30-40 when dried. Max. I know, i ruined those buds, but they were better what i get on street atm.

I still lost few more tops because of that bud rot. That was my huge mistake not to invest into few fans, i ended with one large fan as needed to react fast, but two medium desk sized fans would have done better job. Was fighting humidity as autum and rain, were buying those shit dehunidifiers where i could get an electric 1 for the money i spent. Mistake. Biggest mistake was air circulation, never thought of that bud rot to happen. And if it happens dont rush to kill whole plant. Defoliate it. Defoliation works good if done not too much and on time. Would never ever grow without cal mag suppl. again. Plants loves it. Learned not to play with ph. Reacted too harsh. Learned. Not worth topping if veg for 4wks or maybe should top earlier. What worked best - lst + defol.

Some photos of plants before harvest / and harvest.

Sugar black rose:

I cannot tell exact yeld as I started smoking popcorn buds as soon as they were smokeable. I cut her around day 63 after flip. Probably should cut her 3-5 days earlier. Was my best looking plant, but not the best one for me. My friends loved it, I, personally don’t. Tastes like candy, I agree, but not my smoke. I prefer something more old schoolish and pungent. Yelded around 60 when dried. I know numbers just after harvest: 235g

Black russian:

Bud rot striked her just before harvest and she lost two tops if i am correct before. She still kicked around 50g dried and ~190g after harvest. Defo better than rose, nice buds, kinda nuce citrus smell and works nice if u hit in the morning. :} liked this one.

THC BOMB:

Mold was striking her. But she gave me about 42g dried. She lost 4 tops because of bud rot i think. ~160g after harvest. Nicely looking buds. Interesting taste and effects. Somewhat like russian. Liked this one too.

Diesel drift:

Had two. Both gave me about ~87g dried. Nit worth topping!!! LST and defol. Nice smoke. Purple. Smell is very strong and i love indica effects it packs. Amazing smoke.

Overal lots of things learned. Possible to kick 400-500g dried with that set up but we r moving and i sold it for what i bought happy not very happy with strains, were looking for something more stronger, possible that i grew more potent stuff under cfl and led??? Those autos b4 didn’t smell that good, had less lights, but was more potent stuff i believe????


Thanks fir reading!!! I’ve got about 270-280g dried, as planned. ) not the best grow, will grow again when have my property, not a room!!! I want some old school one bing heavy hitters!!!

Peace ya’ll! And thanks for help and reading and being patient.
