Way Of The Road

Blue Cheese is just dry now and gave her a rough trim and snipped any leaf tips with nothing on them. This is just top half of the cheese so far bottom is still drying with probly more weight on it.

And the Calyxs off the stem, anyone else smoke these after trimming ? there usually nice a dry couse there like mini mini hallow buds, i use to find them very tastie on certain strains

Heres some of the SweetZZ Auto doing very well so far. I think it the combo of a slightly bigger pot and the soil i used in it compaired to the Northeren Lights beside here in a smaller pot with different soil also (witch i think is to dence for her weak roots)hence the lack of growth, she defo struggled at the start.

And this White Widow is roughly 2 months old or more. Shes in a reused pot that had a pervious BlueBerry. Again this plant had a very slow start. I flushed the soil twice before planting in it and then keept it quite moist at the start of her life to help break down the old roots etc.

And another White Widow (hydro)
and tomatoes and the last of 3 GreenGelato Auto seeds i have to try and waiting for her to pop up. The last 2 sprouted and took ages to appear and but when they poped up i gave one a lil extra water and its died/ rotted either to too much water or the new soil i tryed with them is to hot for lil seeds... So i changed the middle of soil in the pot to something that has workd before and left the rest around the edges for later on in her life.

First things first Skittlez has a lovely fruity smell right now, she should be done by now just at the 9 week mark.
I might approach flushing/harvest different for this plant. As iv been reading and hearing some info about not flushing or last day flush etc. Due to stressing the plant?!?!
Because between harvesting the plant and curing most my bud smells/tasts the same and some (espically Dwc) doesnt burn well. So im loosing alot of good terps. in that time but doing everything ''everyone'' says.
Iv growen 2 different strains in DWC now in the past year and they both didnt burn great at all and both 1-2 week sitting in plain water. Even when i let the ground bud dry up fully, it still didnt burn well witch im asuming its too much (N) still stuck in the bud (maby)

And now the Northeren Lights Auto witch also smell juicy rn. but the plant isent the healthest and quite small compaired to Sweet zz. But the soil is much different.

The soil mix

And the roughly 3 month old tiny White Widow topped and ready to train. her soil is also alot different more compost like and spongy full of old rooting roots, i guessd thats whats making it spongy and some moss growing on it

The dying White Widow (witch i probly should of put in the journal anyway) But this plant was very hungry at the start of her life and had issues due to lack of care/feeding i guess so she kinda looked like this most her life with afew orange hairs and 50-80% milky trichs at harvest, since she was pulled early.
But the thing is as for smell, she smells nice (funky) not quite the White Widow smell ud be use to but more Tropical sweet id say, this is witout a cure. I also flushed roughly a week before, just ran about 10L or so threw and stopped feeding a week before (the little bit she was given anyway). Seems to burn smell and taste fine. that makes me wounder why exactly it does turn out like that? if i had of growen it normaly (with care lol) it probably would of turn out smelling and tasting the same as most the other stuff i grow. IMG_2252.JPGIMG_2249.JPGIMG_2250.JPG
 
The SweetZZ 72Days old from seed.
So iv stopped feeding her half way through last week. gona give her 1L or so every 2nd day untill harvest (wont be flushing) and more then likely let her dry out fully for 2-3 days. And then harvest and dry with them normal rules 60H 16c with a pc fan im gona add for air flow.
This is all in the hope i can get this plant to taste delishious and burn and smell etc.
Havent said that this is the first time iv tried 'Newer American genitics' by that i mean the genetic and natural terp levels might be good anyway even to a unprofessional grower. Candy Kush is the only other one like i mention all the time that had that quality + flavour (when i grow it)
At this point she smells amazing like all my plants at this stage. So this is where im gona have to keep an eye on things and not do too much or too little, maby less is more right now at the final week/s
So seeing what i can do for now

White Widow (reused soil) that i super cropped and gona flick her into flower in about 2 weeks depending on growth speed. the soil i reused is a organic compost bagsoil and its very light rn in the pot compaired to the other mix of garden soil i used even tho it seems to stay wet most of the time even on top without a couple days watering. Its just all bag compost no added perlite or anything and its like all the old roots from the previous grow holding together, so basically im trying say ud have to rip it appart for it to break up. Like a web of roots under there. It has like round rabbit poo like bits from the soil that it seems to be forming itslef

NL Auto More lil problems near the end of her life. as i mentioned before the soil is probably to compact and is lacking air or dranage, she seems to be clawing and from what i know thats too much nutes. so iv just been watering plain water in small amounts. couse theres not much i could do but repot and its to late for that
And the Green Gelato next to her that im just gona toutch because i messed up the other to seeds.
Not gona lie my past couple of plants in 2020 are having problems, between pests, soil mixes not going well. I need to stick to a good medium and a certin few strains to minimise these little problems.
IMG_2449.JPG
Tomatoes and the Hydro White Widow witch iv no idea what im gona do with when it comes to flushing.....
because the last couple strains iv had in DWC have not burned well and white ash (cookies and a cheese)
i usually take all water out last week or 2 and fill half way -ish with plain rain water. But im thinking about letting her dry out with just a tiny bit of water maby..
Any input wecome...

Some small updates. The Skittlez SweetZZ is now curing and the NL growen beside her is taking a little longer, due to soil condishions im guessing. Never flushed the Skittlez and put her in a dark period. the non cure taste is not bad and smells a lil sweet with a musky smell, the same on how other strains i grow. It burns ok i think maby a flush woulda been helpful here (maby, because iv had the same results with flushed)
The Cheese thats been curing for a couple weeks now is burning better iv noticed and taste a lil sweeter / more cheese but stil not like cheese iv bought.
The hydro White widow is getting flipped to 12/12 this week.
Also got some new strains on the way from are good sponcors Royal Queen seeds and Barneys Farm.
My fav Candy kush and more, i want to make sure i can grow some of these and make them burn and taste perfect and correct whatever im doing wrong.
more pics to come
 
NL auto going very slow at the end but looks about 5ish days away hopefully she over her due date anyway. But defo doesnt love this medium

White widow clones that i dont have room for so i threw 2 in to one pot. The pot i put them in has soil that to Hot im guessing, because iv put 2 gelato autos in this soil and 1 cheese and 1 skittles. All sprouted but then the root turned brown and they didnt surface, so i had to dig down gently to find them. So no more of this soil for seedlings.

Tomatoes and strawberrys that are groing very slow, i dont know why, never grown strawberrys indoors before.

#DWC White widow looking a lil weird i think due to low humidity possibily so iv upped it for now i hope.

And the Green Gelato Auto that im half strenth feeding today even tho i coulda started a week or 2 ago.
