Today's Update:
Temp: 16-28 degrees Celsius
RH: 41-51%
Still looking great! I missed chubby before lights out, but she's looking pretty much the same still. I'll give her another bit of flores with next watering and then try to wait and see how she is doing
Cookie And speedy are looking fantastic!! I might even chop speedy this weekend, we are just about 8 weeks and she is starting to amber up! I probably could leave her longer and let her bulk up a bit more, but I'm keen to get this down and drying before our landlord comes for another inspection. We also prefer a slightly less couch lock effect, so I'm hoping that catching it earlier in ripeness before she's gone too amber will help it from being "too indica-y" for lack of a better term haha
We still have stuff to smoke at the moment too, so we'll get a good chance to really dry and cure this stuff before decimating the supplies like last time, so I'm pretty thrilled!!
Can't wait to see this harvest's weight compared to last time. I thought the plants were going to be way bigger this time, but looking at them almost finished now I'm not seeing a hugely perceivable difference in size, so weight will definitely give me an idea of how we compared to last run

Speedy update:
So she got the chop!! Definitely think she was a little potassium deficienct, as the plant didn't look as big as I was expecting at the end, and I think the stems buckling have more to do with potassium than the buds being too heavy. I might cook down some extra potassium amendments in the next batch of soil, as it seems to have been a little lacking in K for both the chili plant and speedy this run
Final weight landed at 215g wet, so pretty small. But it's definitely the sparkliest widow harvest yet! And the girl scout still looks fat and happy.
Here's speedy flopping down
Got my buckets all set for the wash!
A nice fresh cola
Washed and drip drying:
The big buds tray!

Today's Update:
Temp: 16-28 degrees Celsius
RH: 45-79%
Been meaning to get in and give the ladies some more water, so finally got in and gave them both 2L with some bio boost mixed in. Chubby is still hanging on to some of the damaged leaves, but she's definitely growing out and looking lush and thick, so she might beat out speedy now! Only time will tell
I'm also going to try watering a little more frequently, I'm not sure if I've been treating my supersoil with quite the same attitude as I have been the plant, and I think that's a mistake.
Here's the beautiful ladies getting their water!
Here's a speedy nug! (Excuse my rough trim job haha) Got these ones in the dehydrator on the lowest heat setting (gauge says 85F), biggest ones have had roughly 48hrs dehydrating and are reading 60% in the jar. They'll probly creep up some more overnight as they pull moisture from within, but we're settling in close to that beautiful 62-65%!

Today's Update:
Temp: 16-26 degrees Celsius
RH: 50-60%
The jars were about 72% after sitting overnight, so I whacked them back in the dehydrator for another 8 hours, then jarred them back up. After a few hours they were back up to 57%, so I am betting they will settle right into that beautiful 62-65% after sitting overnight again!! Sure smokes better than the stuff we've been buying recently!!
Everybody is looking great! I might get to chopping the girl scout later on this weekend, she is looking beautifulllllll!! Still justttt a few clear ones, but definitely getting some amber creeping in
Chubby is very purple, but still growing along well enough for me! Two thumbs up!!

WHEW! Things have been hectic! We are in the midst of looking at a new place to rent, so things have been crazy here
The white widow settled right in to 63-66% after another 8 hours or so in the dehydrator, for a total of close to probably 60 hours or so in there. Just been keeping an eye on the humidity and keeping it below 65% by opening the jars for a couple minutes each day. Hopefully she lasts long enough to see what a month long cure will do for her! Haha they smell and taste terrific already. Really spicy and almost like licorice... can't wait to see the girl scout!!
The cab ladies are looking fantastic. The girl scout is so frosty and fat and beautiful. I think we'll pull her tonight after the landlord comes through for an inspection.
Chubby still looking pretty good considering how sad she was not too long ago. She'll finish strong!! Got her topped up with a little compost and mulched, just to kind of trial it with intentions of mulching next time round!!

Also got a new batch of soil cooking up!! Couple little tweaks this time around in response to the plants that went down into the last mix. We were very close, and definitely had some success from the last batch. But I'm so stoked for this next time round! Soil food web planning is starting to feel like second nature... yippee!
So this time round, I decided to make a few changes; I'm starting with a lower ratio of the peat moss/coir, and instead trading it out for a higher ratio of compost! I'm also adding more amendments into the initial load, and adding worms and a layer of pea straw/sugar cane mulch
This latest recipe was:
Base Mix:
-60L Local Organic Fully Cooked Compost
-20L Supersoil Amendments Compost
-30L Canna Professional (Peat Moss)
-20L Canna Professional Plus (Coir)
-50L Rice Hulls
-20L Horticultural Charcoal
Amendments:
-3.5 cups gypsum
-5 cups Palagonite
-4 cups Azomite
-7 cups Volcanic Rock Dust
-1.5 cups potash
-4 cups Diatomaceous Earth
-3.5 cups Crustacean blend
-5 cups home ground egg shells
-3.5 cups neem meal
-3.5 cups coconut meal
-4 cups kelp meal
-2 cups soybean meal
-2.5 cups alfalfa meal
-2.5 cups guano
-2.5 tbsp epsom salts
- humic/fulvic acid watered in with roughly 30L of water to wet soil
Then I added a sprinkling of clover and alfalfa seeds (not sure if they'll sprout under all the mulch, but we'll see!), added a box of wormies, a 2" thick or so layer of pea straw/ sugar cane mulch, and left her spread out in a little trench on my tarp! Can't wait for this to cook down!!

The other big exciting news is that we got the new seeds we've been wanting!!! Finally some sativas!! :'D
So this time round will be 420's
- chocolope
- strawberry cough
- super lemon haze
The chocolope is one I am so stoked to try!!! I plopped them straight into little cups of straight compost. Added some mycorrhizae powder to the hole beforehand, and gave them a good soak. Then into the cab with the big girls for the warmth!! Can't wait to see if they pop right up!!

Today's Update:
Temp: 13-33 degrees Celsius
RH: 45-80%
Whew! Have been pretty busy at work, but luckily have kept enough time to keep everybody nice and moist and keep our soil alive and happy! We did have a bit of a peak in the cab after forgetting to turn the big exhaust fan back on for most of a day. But nobody seems to really be complaining.
In fact... quite the opposite!! I thought I had let the compost get a little too dry and maybe the texture would end up being all wrong, but we've had all three seeds pop up now!! So that's an exciting development! Can't WAIT to flower out these sativas and see how they go!!
Chubby:
New friends!! Day 1!

Quick update:
Checked my big batch of soil, it's nice and moist still under that mulch! Smells beautiful and earthy, so I'll leave it be for at least another few weeks and let her break down into something truly beautiful. Ideally she'll get to sit for at least 8 weeks, but we'll have to see how quickly these little ones take off!
The three little babies have all popped up happy and healthy in the compost, so I am quite pleased!! Can't wait till they're old enough to really start looking like themselves! :'D
Chubby is still just coming along. Flowers look a little small for six weeks, so I'm guessing we won't get the biggest harvest off her. But she still looks pretty good!

Three little babies are looking fantastic!! I checked underneath them, and two have sprouted these big monster taproots right out of bottom of the peat cups, and one has punched her roots right through!! I have yet to see this from any of my little seedlings before!! Go you beautiful ladies!
Chubby is still looking very meh... she's just over 7 weeks now though, so we are getting close! She'll finish out strong!

Today's Update:
Little babies are looking great!! Just got them up-potted today as I didn't want those big beautiful taproots to get damaged or dry out from being too exposed under the bottom of the peat cups. Impressive amount of root growth in just a few days!!
So I've gone into a very slightly bigger container, just to try and gradually up-pot so they really pack the roots in there. I also want to maximise cook time for this batch of soil before getting it into the big fabric pots
Chubby still looking pretty good! Got two litres of water into her today, and planning to try and keep her nice and moist for the next few weeks till she comes down. Just a waiting game now!
We picked up some local stuff to hold us over, as the girl scout supplies are getting dangerously low already... Alas, after tearing into a bud and finding some white fluff hiding deep inside, I think we'll be sticking to what we can grow ourselves from now on haha

Unfortunately huge humidity fluctuations for a lady this late in flower. But those buds aren't quite dense enough that I'm too worried about mould. And at least it's a decent range for getting these seedlings comfortably settled in! The temp however is definitely on the low side at night. I'm hoping the mulch will help the flowering lady but I don't have much help for the babies! Sorry little guys!
Chubby is still chugging along. Still seeing decent calyx swell going on, so I'm going to give her another good water tomorrow to keep her nice and wet. Might get some decent flowers yet!

Still a little cold for everybody and humid for chubby, but plugging along quite beautifully nonetheless!!
The little babies are looking a little bigger and happier each day. I'll leave the soil another day or two from the weight of them before giving some more water to these girls. Can't wait to see those thin sativa lobes come popping out soon!! First sativa run!!
Chubby is looking beautiful! Lots of crazy colours this time round, but I'm going to let her go until she's happy and done, so still got some time yet. We're almost to 8 weeks, but I'll probably give her at least another week yet and see how the trichs look then!

Little ladies are still looking good. I think they'd go a little faster if it was a little warmer and longer days, but oh well! Looking great nonetheless! I'm sure they're packing those pots with little roots!
Chubby is still plugging along! She smells great, way less licorice than speedy so that's kinda nice!
The end of an era :'(. Just smoking the last of the girl scout now. This was the most beautiful plant yet! She was so fruity and sweet and delicious, and the smoke was so smooth and creamy. You will be sorely missed, you beautiful lady!

Still looking great! Definitely am noticing small amounts of tiny young aphids around a few of the very lowest down buds, so I chopped them off and tried to squish as many as I could see. Doesn't look like there's enough to have really set in or progressed much up the plant. Will have to keep an eye on that though! Don't want to lose it all now!
I got 2 litres of just water into chubby, I've been trying to get into the habit of every other day for the rest of her flowering. Certainly looking very close, but I think I'll let her go just a little while longer and try and clear up every last trich!
Little babies are looking great!! I got them nicely watered today, so they should be good for another little while again. Hoping to see a big spurt over the next couple days now!!
