My Blue dream has a 4 ft cola that is thicker than a football and denser than a jawbreaker. In years past my average yield was X and my average size plant is Y. This year, my average yields seem to be 2x, yet my average size plant is slightly smaller than Y. The size of the buds are ridiculous! I could seriously knock somebody out with some of the nugs in the garden. Just crazy results this year on the full season, I hope the quality comes through in the bag.

I get goosebumps looking at my buds, and that's just scary cause I'm only at 5wks. Third (or fourth :biggrin:) run at this paradigm and I have it kinda balanced so far with this run. Crazy vigorous growth, stems to die for, and bud sites up the kazoo.

Transpiration is up 75%...:whee:

A few have noted what seems to be premature ripening, mine definitely are showing wonderful calyxial ripening and swelling much earlier than expected. I can't figure out if this is magic yet, sometimes early finish means lower weight. We'll see if the goosebumps are prophetic in a few weeks.

:thinking: Dude I thought you hated blue dream! Post some football bud pics please! I’ve grown blue dream for 7 years straight and didn’t this year. Glad to hear your doing well.

Kaya's dream impressed me this year, blue dream structure but quality is better. but still doesn't compare with some of the Ancient OG f2's ... few are throwing football size buds. not in my garden though

can't wait until next year i finally get everything dialed in and get those monsters that i know this place is capable of . our plants are big this year but most of them the buds didnt fill out as much as i would have liked. 100% due to mites.

high calcium got us through to harvest with little to no PM or mold.

Harvest has officially begun on my property.

same here. good luck!

I will try guys, been super swamped! Blue Dream will be one of the last ones harvested. I will make sure to snap a picture or two of the cola when I harvest.

My dry room is ridiculous, just cola after cola.

Oct - I do hate blue dream in many ways. I personally like the smoke, and love it's ability to make concentrates. I do hate how everybody and their mother grows blue dream, so nobody ever wants it. When brokers nose's hit my bags, two things come out of their mouth. It's either: "wow, that gas baby!" or "is that blue dream?" Guess which one I like hearing better?

Believe it or not, I was just running an experiment. I was testing the vigor of my seeds and Screw's AOG seeds to blue dream. Blue dream is known as the highest yielding plant in cannabis history, the biggest commercial strain. Guess what, my Sky Lotus x Ancient Og and Screws Ancient Og f2's smoked the blue dream in every way. Yields, vigor, pest resistance, mildew resistance, and yet to be tested but one can be assured the potency will be in the upper 25%+. Ancient Og is no joke!

Slow...back on the subject of shotgun amendments v single bullet. How do you feel about feather meal?

I tend to use sup r green chicken manure (3-2-2) to provide long term N. On the upside it kicks microbes into high gear...soil heats up slightly. The downside is obvious forcing me to use gypsum to push K out rather than simply as a fertilizer

I am thinking I can replace the chicken shit with feather meal and add aminos to jump start the microbes

Have you tested a sample of sup r green Jidoka?

Is it possible to run the gypsum through the manure pre-use?

Have a pile here that is rabbit,chicken and pig manure that has been in a pile in a building for over a year...no leaching in any way. That will be next years topdress...

Just did a side by side indoors of 2 white widows. One got an inch of chicken compost at week 2 the other did not. Compost side won. Same feed same water.

EDIT: Best part is being able to remove those top couple inches of high K medium to prep for the next round...You mentioned high K and perpetual...that is my solution.
