My three Dynamite Diesel are gaining strength in th branches and look a bit more similar by the day. All making nice buds at 4 weeks. At least average size plants with plenty trichs already. Solvent or chemical hints with citrus nose.

4 Copper Chem in veg topped Wednesday a week or two from flower tent.

2 things with all things TK.

1. TK stretches a ton like you know now and it makes kind of sense because it is supposed to be one of the earlier OG's if not possibly the earliest so bit more vigor (this is clearly based of just logic and may not be true).
2. It shoots out small buds especially when topped. DO NOT underestimate the weight of those buds...It is nice being able to fit twice or more of what you normally can into a jar.

I run some original kush beans from 1995. It didnt stretch like this one. I did clip a piece and let air dry and tried it. It's extremely potent. Like wow. Kinda disappointed I failed at growing it. But now i know the stretch is real. I'll be more prepared for it.i just never expected an og cross to stretch 5 feet. I bet I dont fail a second time. It stretched almost like a pure sati would. It was less than 2ft tall 11" wide when I put it in flower. When i pulled it. It was almost 6.5ft yall and 3.5ft wide. In a rainscience grow bag. If I wouldn't have had other strains in the tent, ida been alright. Bc I could've pulled her straight over. But I only room to bend the top down. And it wasnt enough. Its 100% my fault, bc i didnt do my due diligence. And I nvr run a strain without researching it first. And the first time I did. It bit me in the ass.

LVTK is a nice strain but it does take a little taming to get that stretch under control.

I'm on my 2nd run with the 2 I have.
This time around I topped twice and left them in 2 gallon pots under the CMH for the first 2 wks after flip before up-potting to their final pots with the other girls.
Its cut the stretch, internodes are closer, and the stems are nice and strong. Normally I'd never do things this way but it did work so...

I wish others had better luck their LVTK. My #2 has great terps and the potency is on point.

I put jars of this out at pig roast we had along with a Sour Corey, Copper Chem, and SSDD. The LVTK was the first to be empty. The heavy tokers loved it.

And I know I overindulged because I ducked out of that party early with 3 Raw cones and a bottle of Apple Crown. Woke up floating in the neighbors paddle boat with a bag of Twizzlers, no cones, and an empty bottle :oops:

Never did figure out where I got the red Twizzlers....
Classy, huh :P

Hah. How are the lemon terps on your phenos? Are they better or as good as the SFV OG if you have any experience with it by chance? Or can you think of any lemon strain that you like better for lemon terps?

TK isn’t a pure kush like Bubba, Hindu Kush, Master Kush, etc.

The terps on #1 were very pronounced in flower but dissipated towards harvest time. Lemon with a touch of skunkiness.

#2 had similar terps that were very sweet and lemony rather than sharp or like some of the lemon floor cleaner/pledge terps (think JC2 or similar) and those didn't fade which was nice.
There's something else in there too that I cant quite put my finger on.

No first hand experience with SFV OG other than crosses.

I should be able to give a proper smoke report with this second round. (I really should take notes but charting was something I loathed during my med career and I avoid it all cost. I don't even make grocery lists. Just me and my failing memory, lol)

Havent found a favorite yet but I'm still on the hunt. :wink:

Anyone keep track of their brix or know anything about it? My brix is at 11.5% and I want it to at least be at 12%. Made a thread about it a week ago, but no one has really commented in it.

What meter do you use?
I thought about buying one but it wouldn't really change how I do things. High brix is always the goal. :weed:

In fact, I usually fade my plants late because it lowers brix and makes plants more vulnerable to pests and PM.

I just got a cheap mechanical refractometer off amazon. Not even sure it has a brand name. You have to manually calibrate it with RO water the first time but it seems like it works pretty well.

I've read a lot about brix, and it seems sugar and micros are a key part of it all, but it has a lot to do with your NPK ratios. Maybe more calcium, and less nitrogen. I was trying to find someone who knew a little bit about it, and could maybe set me straight. Most of the stuff I've read has had more to do with organic soil gardening, but I think that you should still be able to take brix readings and get them to go up with hydro as well.

I'm familiar with the concepts but have never measured my brix levels. If your compost is top notch and being replaced as needed, you add some biodiversity here and there in form of act or fungal based teas, have several sources of calcium in great abundance in your amendments/compost one could assume in general you are raising happy, healthy plants. In conjunction your brix levels are probably pretty high.

You seem to have a firm grasp on the matter. If you're using organics you generally can apply the same knowledge to your container gardens as well. I don't know what's possibly lacking in your situation to get you a lower reading than you'd like but I'm sure if you examine the compost quality, what your previous soil test results were (if any, if not that's a good place to start) and your amendment list and tea regiment you'd find an answer with a simple solution.
