Meet MarleyJane, your everyday grower with a love for OG Kush feminized seeds from WeedSeedsExpress. MarleyJane isn't chasing records or trophies, just the simple joy of nurturing a plant from seed to harvest in a cozy indoor tent. It’s a modest setup: a Greenfingers GT tent (60x40x60), lit by ViparSpectra's XS1000 LED lights through both vegetative and flowering stages. Using a custom blend of soil, perlite, and rich earthworm castings, MarleyJane’s garden starts life in small Jiffy pellets under a gentle heat pad and humidity dome, easing each seedling through its delicate beginnings.

OG Kush Grow Diary Week by Week
Weeks 1-2: Finding Her Feet
The little OG Kush seed broke free from its shell on July 30, slowly stretching out beneath the soft, nurturing glow of the XS1000 LED. At first, she looked a bit unsure of herself, sprouting slowly as her roots quietly dug into the fertile earth below. MarleyJane worried about curling leaves early on, was she watering too much? Probably. "Patience, weedhopper," a grower friend advised, reminding her that roots often took priority over leaves this early in life.
Weeks 3-4: Baby Steps and Early Training
By week three, MarleyJane introduced BioCanna Vega nutrients, carefully balancing feeding and watering. The plant started to respond beautifully, showing vivid, lush green growth. Internode spacing was tight, maybe even too tight, leading to a short, bushy structure perfect for LST, which began toward the end of week three. Early defoliation opened up airflow and allowed more light to penetrate lower branches, prepping the plant for the flip.
Weeks 5-6: Bloom Begins
The first signs of flowering arrived with tiny white pistils emerging, signaling all systems go for flowering nutrients: Bio Flores and a dash of BioBOOST. MarleyJane noted a faint aroma creeping in, time to add the carbon filter. An attempt at repotting mid-flower raised some eyebrows, but MarleyJane trusted her gut, switched from plastic to fabric pots, and the plant hardly missed a beat.
Weeks 7-8: Challenges and Adjustments
Humidity became a nemesis at lights-out, but careful management kept the environment stable. Small nutrient burns hinted she might have overestimated the soil's nutrient reserves, dialing back solved the issue. Additional LST helped the lower bud sites fatten, while minor defoliation improved airflow and light penetration.
Weeks 9-10: Budding Excitement
Buds began thickening, pistils multiplied, and a sweet, earthy fragrance filled the tent. MarleyJane balanced nutrients carefully, adding Potash and CalMag to address minor deficiencies. Bottom leaves started their natural yellowing, marking the countdown to harvest. Anticipation grew as buds frosted and trichomes matured.
Weeks 11-12: Almost There
Final weeks meant meticulous care, watching for amber trichomes to signal the perfect harvest window. Nutrient levels were fine-tuned, preparing for the upcoming flush. A mixture of excitement and nostalgia filled MarleyJane; every day brought her closer to harvest, but also closer to the end of a cherished grow cycle.
Week 13: Harvest Time
At last, harvest arrived, greeted with sticky fingers and rich, aromatic buds that glistened under the tent's lights. The careful attention paid off, a neat 60 grams dry. MarleyJane hung her prize gently, starting the curing process with satisfaction, pride, and just a little impatience to taste the fruits of her labor.
