Hi there guys!
Finally i´ve managed to put my mind on the right frame to start this diary.
My new grow room, stealthier,safer and BIGGER ia up and running, so now i guess that i will have the time&will to keep this diary going. Let´s hope nothing stupid comes my way on the next couple of months. The police bust drain me in many senses and now i need a few weeks of Peace&harmony to get back to my old self.
In my very personal and daft opinion it was harder on me to stop growing that to stop smoking. Weird little me, i know
But let me stop ranting and digressing and let´s start this thing.
First things first. Praised be given to Sweet Seeds for setting up this comp but even more for the excellence of their genetics.
Keep it up guys you are doing a awesome work
Now i also need to apologize myself for being so late on this one and also for not being able to at least bring some input to my dear fellow growers diaries.My bad but when i´m on a dark place i rather keep myself to myself.
Now i think i can start the diary.
Let´s start with the strains. Because i kept my Psicodelicia and Ice Cool from last year Sweet girls at the moment i got 5 Sweet Strains.The two mention before and Sweet Cheese, SAD and Jack47.
On these last 3months i was not able of maintaining any plants on my house so i had to go a long way in order to have some girls going and ready for when the time was right. I´m just mentioning this to justify the way this diary is going to be presented.
All the strains coming from seed were germinated long ago but my legal issues made it impossible to keep proper records of it.
So now i´m gonna speed up things a little
Because we all need some i bring some Cure for Pain

I was there and i can almost be there again today those were the days!
And now just to finish the introduction of my diary a Psicodelicia shot from Christmas Day harvest


Plenty of purples mainly due to low temps.
I will be back later on...as soon as i find a way of organizing the available pictures

Thanks Dodgee!
Make yourself at home

Now some info about the grow.
I´m using Plant Magic soil and the PM OldTimers organic range as well.
Some foliar feedings with coriander oil just to keep nasties at bay and that´s about it.
I´m wanting to keep it simple. You guys won´t find much mention of nutrients, additives or specs on growing gear or techs on this diary sorry for that but around here is all about Love,Care and Attention for my beloved plants
They were germinated under 125W Blue enviro for the first week at 24/0




You can see the Psicodelicia cuttings on the right hand getting ready to rock&roll

After that they go under 250W enviro for another week on a 18/6 light regime. After that is potting up time


After a few days













The conditions and care was never ideal at this stage mainly because i didn´t had the plants under my wing
So i was never able to react fast enough to deal with all the situations relating my precious Sweet ladies
This said apart from one Jack47 and another Sweet Cheese all girls pulled it in the end
More to come anytime

Very best of luck with your ladies PauloLx!

Thanks Tommy.
It´s my pleasure to share it with you guys and sorry again for such a delay but shit keeps coming my way.
All good because i always end up properly fertilized and ready to the next smelly batch.
And now a musical moment to illustrate my feelings about what gets on my way
Refuse/Resist


Due to legal, family and time issues i had to stall these ladies a few times and some of them are now on the 12th week of veg.
Fucking expensive weed this was gonna be if i had intention to sell some i don´t!
They were the usual bliss to grow and if faults are to be given relevance are mine. Much to learn yet
But let´s bring some shots of how they developed
12th November 2011 now under 400MH




















20th November 2011




















Enough for now

Thank you Serpent.
The Sweet Ladies have been growing all around me
It´s only the diary that got delayed because the girls couldn´t be stopped even if i wanted to. Strong galz, just like i prefer them

Some more shots with topping done














Now on the 29th of November


Getting bigger and bigger






Some serious stretching on some of them...my fault, it´s all due to a too long vegetation under non-ideal conditions.


Serious measures were taken




And they were looking good under the circumstances

No they can not keep us down my Love for the plant easily beat all my fears of getting caught
Let´s bring some more pictures now from December 11th














If you guys want some info relating any of the pics or any other specifics please don´t hesitate to ask.
I just can´t be bothered in having a very detailed diary. To me Less is More in many ways so i will use this concept on my diary as well. Less is More...or More is Less...whatever suits you better my dears
Just to finish this one a shot from my Christmas smoke

It´s even better than it looks
