Aurora Indica by Nirvana, 100% organic grow with BioBizz nutes

Yes solar flares occur in the summer. In fact the Aurora Borealis that I observed in Iowa back in the 80s did occur in the summer. I was driving home from the television station after work, and saw the lights streaking across the sky from the north. I had to pull over, and stop. I then headed out into the countryside for a better view. Timing is advised for your best shot at viewing. https://www.nordicvisitor.com/blog/a-bright-outlook-for-winter/

Well.. I want this to succeed, and I don't really have shortage of space, it's just that Cannabis is illegal here. So for safety and privacy I've kept the grow space to a minimum. But it's also fun to grow. So I find it easy to spend time pampering this one plant. I have a glass of organic molasses which I plan on using during the next couple of weeks. I've never used it before, but I've been told that it affects taste in a good way. Plus, the BioBizz nutrients are based on molasses, so I found it only natural to give it a try.
 
Yes I am aware that cannabis is illegal in Norway, but at least they have decriminalized use. Your pampering is very effective. You can count on a great harvest.
 
Yes, we recently had a majority seats in the government vote yes for decriminalizing drugs. It's mostly aimed at the "plague" of heroin addicts we have here, and the fact that punishment in the form of fines and prison does not help a "20 years on the road" junkie when he or her finally re-joins the society. But it also affects Cannabis and other drugs too. So yeah. After years and years Norway has finally taken the first step towards a drug policy fitting for the 21 century.

And I really appreciate the kind words! The funny thing is, that I'm actually a restless person. But Cannabis makes me slow down and think things over. Stop over analyzing everything all the time. So maybe the plant shares some of its good vibes with me, and I thereafter brings them with me to others.

Hopefully you guys are right. And that this harvest will be great. I sure hope so!
 
Small but important update today!

She is drying up faster now, so I watered her again today (3 days since last watering/feeding).

I added the usual stuff, but today I also added Molasses to the mix. I'm looking forward to see how she likes it, or if I even can tell a difference in the growth.
So today I gave her 3 liters (12 cups) of water, mixed with 1/2 tablespoon of Molasses, 4ml/L BioBloom, 1ml/L BioGrow and 2ml/L TopMax.

Here's the type of Molasses I'm using. Bought of a health/vegan store. Smells awful, but I bet the plant will love it!

She is looking good. Growing steady and slowly forming buds. I wont be Super cropping or anything like that. I want to get this grow done and cured, then go over my journal and perfect it for the next round. Then I will be stepping it up a notch, and maybe add another light. Who knows. So for now I'll just be taking care of her and letting her grow.

I'll add pictures of her later today or tomorrow. She is getting her self together after the feeding, so she'll be 100% again tonight.

See you guys later! Keep the feedback coming!

Peace!
 
The nutrition information lists Chromium, Calcium, Copper and Iron, but no Sulfur. At least not on the label. And I can't see anything about it anywhere, so I guess it can be classified as "unsulfured".
 
I read more-blackstrap is from the last refinement from using mature, cooked cane that should have been pretty sterilized by the previous preocessing steps, and therefore does not need the preservatives that lighter colored grades of molasses contain. That's the sulfur.
 
Ah, ok. I've not yet taking the time to inform myself around this subject. I only bought the Molasses after numerous people told me it was like nectar from the gods for a Cannabis plant. But it sure looks like death and smells kind of like farts. So I guess there's Sulfur in it, since Sulfur normally smells of "rotten eggs" etc. And when I popped the lid, there was this "hissing" sound and something that looked like smoke came out of the jar. It reminded me of when I was a little kid and every year we would have new lambs. And as the lambs grew bigger we gave them Molasses through the feed. The smell of the Molasses brought me back to the hot summers as a kid, at the family farm. Stuff I forgot a long time ago
 
Here's a quick update (with pictures) since I did not post any yesterday!

She is stretching like crazy these days. But I'm not worried yet, but she needs to slow down soon, or I'll run out of space. Hehe!

Some of the flowers have produced something that looks like tricoms on the leaves closest to the flower. Kind of hard to see in this light, but I just thought it was interesting to see.

And here you can see how she's reaching for the light. I've been raising the light higher and higher (1 inch a day) for the last 2 days. But it's still not a problem. She'll most likely end her growth stretch soon anyways. She's, right now, 64 days old and 21 days in to flower.

That was all for this time! Take care.

Peace.
 
Good morning Cocho, From what I have read the black strap molasses should not contain sulphur. This product https://www.amazon.com/Golden-Barre...a7-20&linkId=d25aed13c9fb3f4455a485d9912ea9c8 does not contain the sulphur. It is pricey so I use Grandma's molasses which many other growers use. https://www.walmart.com/ip/Grandma-...35&wl11=local&wl12=15716722&wl13=1384&veh=sem GWE recommends 1/2 teaspoon per gallon of water, but some growers are using as much as 1 to 2 tablespoons. I have been adding 1 table spoon without any significant deleterious effect. Here is what GWE has to say specifically: Sugar Based Supplements

Many sugar or carbohydrate-based supplements claim to improve the smell/taste/sweetness of buds. A cheap alternative to expensive sugar-based bloom boosting supplements is blackstrap molasses. Giving this to your plants for the last few weeks before harvest can help them get bigger and smell/taste better.

It's not specially made for plants; it's the regular stuff you'll find in your kitchen or at the grocery store). Blackstrap molasses adds sugars, amino acids and trace minerals. Unfortunately for hydro growers, anything organic like molasses is not suitable for a hydroponic reservoir! But molasses works great for soil and coco growers :)

For the last 2-3 weeks before harvest, give 1/2 tsp of Blackstrap Molasses per gallon when watering (for soil or coco coir)
 
Beautiful plant! Great attention to detail. 😊
Personally I remove leaves through flower- those that cover bud sites or cause expiration. ...Selectively.😊
 
Yeah! That's the article I've been reading too. That and the many many recommendations from you guys made me want to test out the Molasses.
And like I said before; since the Biobizz nutrient line is Molasses-based, I felt it was only natural to try it out this time.
 
Thanks! You're too kind!
And yes, that is what I'm thinking as well. Selectively pick the leaves I want to remove and carefully remove them.
At the moment I'm keeping my eyes peeled for leaves that are growing to close (cluster like), because I want to remove those to prevent mold and nasty stuff like that.
