FC4800 Summer Grow Journal '23: Amnesia, Durban Poison, G-13, NYC Diesel

Bode · Jul 19, 2023

Highya Krissi,

I'm glad you stopped in for a visit, and showing off your gorgeous ladies!I thought I saw pistils on Durban Poison. Couldn't have been if you haven't flipped them yet. Your tent full of gorgeous green! Durban Poison is such a pretty lady. Tall, much biomass, vibrant green, lot's of branching, and very happy! NYC Diesel is so shopt comapred to DP, but a gorgeous lady just the same! I can't tell if Amnesia or G-13 are height adjusted, but G-13 overtook Amnesia for second tallest. Means everything is growing according to their genetic make-up. You do have a way to bring out the best features of each individual lady!!
So sorry to hear about your blood disease! I certainly hope your health problems can be correctly diagnosed correctly and treated fully so you can get back to living a comfortable life!! I just wish you could live a peaceful and happy life so we could see that sparkling personality come back. Happy Smokin'

Carmen Ray · Jul 19, 2023

Plants are looking green and happy. I'm glad that you have some answers regarding your health Krissi, and I hope it all gets better managed and you feel a hundred percent better.

I want to walk into the South African forest and pick my own true Durban seed, I'm so impressed with this gal.

Do you think that's why? Cross breeding? I've had strains that show indica when a sativa and vice versa before but I didn't think it had anything to do with breeding. Hmmm....

Sounds absolutely stellar!

I was wondering where you got that from

Maybe one for you next Clover?!

So hello guys and gals, sorry it's been a few days since I've given an update. I did upload some pics over the last 3 days though so you guys won't be behind.

Went to my new oncologist yesterday who gave me a new diagnosis of Polycythemia Vera which ironically, is something that was discussed a year and a half ago with not my first oncologist but my rheumatologist. Said my CEA over 10 shows systemic disease of some kind and promised he would find it. I got approval for my CT scans with contrast and I have to call and set that up for next week. Tomorrow, more blood work...so used to it now..tonight, sleep study-at home throw away device, just have to pick it up from the hospital this morning. So healthwise, we are looking like we are headed, finally, in a direction with answers!

Moving back to the plants though, it is up-pot week! The 4 girls are moving to their 5gl forever homes on Friday, I'll be picking up another couple bags of FFOF today to make it happen. Next Friday is FLIP day!!!! Holy moly how time flies when you're growing weed!

I am raising the light nearly every two days about 2 inches at a time to compensate for Uma's (Durban Poison) growth. With that said, I've had to prop up the other girls higher and be creative with what I had to do so. Using all the wood blocks I have plus some old bonsai pots. Moving forward, after FLIP day, we will be flipping over the 3 gls pots on their heads and using the wooden blocks to even out the canopy as best as I can with the girls at such different heights.

I have neglected doing some fun shots with my plants this grow thus far but I wanted to throw some in today.

Miss Blue Cheese believe it or not is probably a 1/4in taller...no new sets but is taller than she was weeks ago...I don't know if I would say that's progress or what being she has a really short shelf life right now. Either way, she is outside, still. Through hot, through lack of humidity, through crazy storms and all.

Which leads me to touch on our soon to be outdoors Bubblegum Auto. Just wanted to note that I have intentions on moving her to her 3gl home come Tuesday at 14 days above ground and letting her go outside for the remainder of her time with us!

The girls are being fed all different days, as they are drinking at all different speeds. Durban was fed on Sunday, G-13 Monday, Amnesia yesterday and today I'll feed our NYC Diesel. Tomorrow it will be time for a 2:1 silica-weeks 3/4 veg mix for Uma again and so the cycle will continue.

Other than that I have no more fun info for you. Baby has been up since 330 so it was a shitty sleep day for me. He's next to me on his tablet but I've got to get going to make him some breakfast cause we have been up a while now.

I can't promise I'll be back on with enough time today to get to messages but I will try as my main attempt is to get through some more journals again before night's end as I don't want to fall too many pages behind and still have some other journals to start from square one. This catching up game has certainly been taking longer than expected but this forum is just chock full of so many grows and interesting and fun reads, it's nearly impossible not to fall behind-not to mention after catching up from 5 months of being gone.

But that's all I'll stop rambling and leave you to your grows. Have a fantastic grow day friends!

Ya I remember mornings like that so far my boy has been getting a bit better with it but Julia tells me the kids are up as soon as I’m the door lmao. I love your plants they look amazing! And propping stuff up is always fun think of it as a circus act gotta get them all to work together!

Your garden looks great as usual Jersey although I think your Durban will be wanting her own tent before it’s done. lol Fingers crossed on your health concerns my little Italian robe buddy. I’m puffing on my own supply this morning. Even though it tastes like lawn clippings and it’s rough on the throat it hits hard as hell but once it’s cured it’ll be amazing. CL.

Love you Clover you're a funny Irish robed man, you know that? How's your lawn clippings? Any better now that they are cured another week?

Highya Krissi,

I'm glad you stopped in for a visit, and showing off your gorgeous ladies!I thought I saw pistils on Durban Poison. Couldn't have been if you haven't flipped them yet.

Hiiii Bode! Hope this week has been treating you well, been busy here with doc appointments, relationship counseling, pre-school orientation, birthdays, transplants and the rest of this busy life we lead! No pistils, at least not quite yet-flower flip is coming on Friday!

Bode said:
Your tent full of gorgeous green! Durban Poison is such a pretty lady. Tall, much biomass, vibrant green, lot's of branching, and very happy!

Durban is going to be interesting to fit in this tent, she is massive- 17 inches taller than our NYC Diesel, in fact. Now granted we know the NYC is a indica type grow, short and stout but still!

Bode said:
NYC Diesel is so shopt comapred to DP, but a gorgeous lady just the same! I can't tell if Amnesia or G-13 are height adjusted, but G-13 overtook Amnesia for second tallest.

Everyone is propped except Durban. NYC is the shortest followed by G-13, Amnesia has her by like an inch or less. They are neck and neck those two.

Bode said:
Means everything is growing according to their genetic make-up. You do have a way to bring out the best features of each individual lady!!

I certainly am trying my best. I truly think this is the healthiest grow thus far, no hiccups to mention no need to adjust nutes...

Bode said:
So sorry to hear about your blood disease! I certainly hope your health problems can be correctly diagnosed correctly and treated fully so you can get back to living a comfortable life!! I just wish you could live a peaceful and happy life so we could see that sparkling personality come back. Happy Smokin'

No worries Bode, I know with everything I havent been on as often as you have been used to seeing me in the past but its all about self preservation. Balance and homeostasis. I dont mean to be or seem distant or like popcorn just appearing and disappearing some days but its relative to how I need to manage all of this. The blood disorder is manageable, just have to watch over time for progression to Leukemia. The CT scans Monday-can you guys believe it, Monday! After dealing with this since Dec 2020, all it takes is one trip to a nee oncologist and another tumor marker and some liver enzymes to be off key and low and behold, they got me approved and in for these scans in less than a week from my original appointment. Unbelievable. Looking for answers as a CEA of 10.3 where I stand, jumping 2 points in only a month (prior to now, it took me body a year and a half to go up 2 points) is usually is a sign of extensive disease but I am so optimistic that we are going to figure this out finally come Monday and whatever it is, we will manage it.
Thanks for being a constant support and cheerleader. I appreciate you

Thanks so much Carmen, just been so long without answers or a way to get them. This is wonderful news, just news in general! As for the plants, I'm loving the love and light they bring to my life. Therapeutic is such an understatement

This week he has been really into his balls. Asking all about them. Worried if he goes outside naked the sun will burn his balls and they will melt. He told me he has to wear pants when he is outside and also that his balls are super strong and not to worry about them....lmao

Very beautiful good job you're an awesome grower...

Marcus, thank you for that, makes me smile on the inside. I really do just try to connect with them as best as I can and let them provide for me.

So guys I've been gone a few days and we transplanted yesterday! Today is Days 37/38/39 for the crew and next Friday as discussed, is FLIP DAY! Uma will be 45 days old and the others, 43/44. Can't wait any longer for vertical sake. Gonna be interesting how I'm going to continue to prop come flower stretch with the Durban. I'll make it work, always do.....

So I figured it would be easier for me to do this in pictures, bringing you guys up to speed. So first let's look at some shots from prior to transplant.
This includes our Bubblegum Auto
