Week 1 and 2
During the first two weeks, the plants established strong roots and reached 9 cm in height by the end of week two. Temperatures were consistent, with daytime at 28°C and night dropping to 19°C, while humidity stayed at 70%. The balanced nutrient routine included Top Crop’s Deeper Underground and Top Veg, promoting steady vegetative growth.
“Stanno crescendo bene,” LordSpl remarked, pleased with the vigorous start and the strain’s performance under controlled conditions.
Week 3 and 4
By week three, the Godfather OG plants reached 15 cm, continuing to thrive in stable conditions. Nutrients like Micro Vita and Big One joined the regimen, supporting both foliage and root development. Defoliation was introduced to help focus energy on critical growth areas, as the plants prepared to shift toward flowering.
By the end of week four, the plants hit 25 cm and started flowering, as expected with the 12/12 light cycle. CO₂ levels were increased to 1000 PPM, and Top Bloom was added to the feeding routine at 7.57 ml/gal. "Crescono molto bene," noted LordSpl, observing the plants beginning to take form and transition smoothly into flowering.
Week 5 and 6
Week five marked the early flowering stage, with the Godfather OG plants stretching to 43 cm. Daytime temperatures held steady at 28°C, with night at 19°C, and humidity adjusted to 60%. Nutrients included Top Bloom, Big One, and Barrier at a total of 15.14 ml/gal, giving the plants the boost needed for flower development.
In week six, the plants reached 48 cm, focusing their energy on flower formation under the steady 12/12 light schedule. Another round of defoliation ensured airflow and light penetration, helping the plants develop evenly. “Crescono molto bene,” noted LordSpl, as the Godfather OG plants entered flowering with strength and promise.
Week 7 and 8
By week seven, the flowering stage was in full swing. The plants maintained their height at 48 cm, focusing on bud formation. Environmental conditions remained steady with 28°C during the day, 19°C at night, 60% humidity, and a pH of 6.5. Nutrients were ramped up to 22.71 ml/gal, with Top Bloom, Big One, Top Bud, and Top Candy all in use to support the early flower development. “Piano piano ci siamo ora iniziamo la crescita,” wrote LordSpl, acknowledging the buds’ progress.
In week eight, the flowering accelerated noticeably, with the plants concentrating all energy into bud swelling and resin production. Nutrient levels adjusted slightly, totaling 18.93 ml/gal, with Top Bloom, Top Bud, and Top Candy continuing to drive the plants forward. The stable environment and consistent CO₂ levels at 1000 PPM supported optimal development.
Week 9 and 10
By week nine, the Godfather OG plants hit the 60-day mark and continued thriving in full bloom. The height held steady at 48 cm as the plants focused on bud density and resin production. Nutrients were increased to 26.5 ml/gal, with a robust mix of Top Bloom, Top Bud, Top Candy, and Big One providing the final push for optimal flower development. “Oggi 60 giorni, vanno alla grande,” noted LordSpl, impressed with the strain’s performance at this stage.
In week ten, the focus shifted toward the endgame. Nutrient levels were reduced to 18.93 ml/gal as the last week of fertilization began. Top Bloom, Top Bud, and Top Candy remained in the lineup, while preparations for flushing began. LordSpl commented, “Ultima settimana di fertilizzazione. 2 di solo acqua e poi vediamo la maturazione,” signaling the plan to move to water-only feeds for two weeks to finalize the ripening process.
The plants stood robust, their flowers maturing beautifully, promising a flavorful and resinous harvest in the weeks to come.
Week 11 and 12
In week eleven, the Godfather OG plants reached the final stretch, with flowers maturing and resin production at its peak. Nutrients were cut off, and the plants were flushed with water, reducing TDS to 500 mS/cm and preparing for harvest. Environmental conditions remained steady with 28°C daytime temperatures, 60% humidity, and a 12/12 light schedule. CO₂ levels were dialed back to 400 PPM, emphasizing natural ripening as the plants neared completion.
Week twelve marked the end of the cycle. The plants held their height at 48 cm, their buds fully developed and coated in resin. With two weeks of flushing completed, they were ready for harvest. “Next up will be harvesting,” noted LordSpl, satisfied with the results and eager to see the final yield.
The Godfather OG plants wrapped up their flowering phase showing strong structure and promising a flavorful, potent harvest ahead.
Harvest
After 90 days from seed, the Godfather OG plants were harvested, yielding a total of 97 grams of dried bud. With four plants grown in a 1 m² space, each produced an average of 24.25 grams—a strong result for the time invested. LordSpl commented, “Hanno sviluppato 24g a pianta in 90 giorni dal seme, ottima resa in base al tempo,” highlighting the efficiency of the grow.
The buds carried a pungent, earthy aroma with notes of pine. Effects leaned towards a sativa-dominant profile (70% Sativa, 30% Indica), delivering an uplifting combination of creativity, energy, and euphoria. On the downside, dry eyes were noted as a minor issue.
This harvest demonstrates the potential of Godfather OG under a 12/12 light schedule from seed, with solid yields and a well-rounded, flavorful smoke.
