Was such a pleasant harvest from start to finish, no issues at all. A tip for next time would be to have the SCRoG lower as I couldn’t really tuck any node sights this time round, smells absofuckinglutely amazing from 3RD week bloom onwards!

Grow Diary – Day 88 (Flowering Day 68) Strain: Sour Frootz by Karma Genetics Plants: 4 clones Training: HST + SCROG Nutrients: Green House Feeding Bio Line – finished Lighting: LED at 50% (final phase) Date: June 8 Status: Harvest Day After 68 days of flowering and 88 days total, the Sour Frootz have reached full maturity. Today marked harvest day. Trichome Check: A final inspection confirmed the ideal moment—mostly cloudy trichomes with 10% amber, delivering the perfect mix of potency, flavor, and effect for me. Buds are fully resinous, and carry an intensely rich aroma: sour fruit, citrus, and that underlying gassy funk Sour Frootz is known for. Harvest Process: • Whole-plant harvested • Plants were cut at the base, intact, and hung upside down • Leaves were left on for a slow dry to protect terpene profile and promote even moisture loss • Drying environment set to ~17–19 °C with 50–60% RH • Complete darkness and steady airflow maintained This method should allow for a 7–14 day dry, depending on bud density and ambient conditions. After drying, a slow cure in jars will follow to fully develop smoothness, flavor, and complexity. Final Notes: • No signs of mold, pests, or stress at harvest • Natural fade complete; plants finished cleanly after flush • Aroma at harvest is deep and terpene-rich • Resin content is heavy – scissors and gloves were coated during harvest Next Steps: Drying will be monitored daily. Once stems snap, the buds will be dry-trimmed and moved into glass jars for curing (burping daily at first). Initial smoke test expected in about 10–14 days, with full cure developing over 4+ weeks.

Okay, so interesting week all around for both myself and this plant. First off, apologies for the limited pics this week. A lot of time was spent on another plant, but going forward, you should see an improvement. Second off, more apologies. This time, for the time-lapse video. It appears a bit jumpy during the first period as I was getting it properly configured, before bumping it out of position. I also realized I could zoom in with it. Now, on to Pink Lemonade. Its been an interesting start with this lass. Possibly I moved her over a hair early to her final home, or I somehow caused her some stress, but the week started off slow. But that all changed as the week went on, and she quickly produced her 2nd, and now 3rd nodes. From what I have seen, this plant, at least thus far, seems to stress easily, but once she comes back, she comes back with a vengeance. For those wondering what my intents with this young lady are, I plan to top her at least once, possibly twice, but no more than that. This grow is more about quality than quantity, and even though I should not lose quality by having more, I am also attempted to have this completed by a specific date. I would like to be harvesting this young one for beginning of sept. As per the seed company, she has a flower time of 8 - 8.5 weeks. Pretty tight time frame. We will find out how accurate it is. Pretty much 2 months exactly. That leaves me approximately 10 - 11 weeks to work with the plant, but as I have never grown this strain, I may move her to the bloom tent sooner. Also dependent on how fast she grows upwards as well. Until next week, keep on growing.

Day 77: I thought that these ladies would be finished and hung but they both have other ideas. Now that I have taken #2 out and pre harvest trimmed her for drying, I wonder how different the resulting smoke will be. Seeing their natural fade in the suoersoil is beautiful to watch as their leaves go through all the colour shades, even the Sister from another Mr has started fading and she is still being fed with shogun. I cannot recommend this strain to grow enough. It has been amazing from the off and since her flowers start so early too , the fireworks begin very quickly. Smells are pungent now and so intoxicating when I open the flap. sticky is an understatement for these beauties. Great work @fastbuds . Until next week . have fun all

Week 2 and these ladies are growing like weeds These beauties just blow up over the last week.. Today we topped and defoliate the plants. Time will tell how long we will veg for .. I'll flip the switch when I'm happy with the canopy. I kept the autopot system off and only water manually. I did turn on the air pump to the airdome after the 1st week.. Today I will turn on the system . I mixed a resivor with 38L of water. Like I mentioned earlier it's my 1st time running the autopots so I dont know how much water and nutrients I will go through, but I will keep notes and be sure to post them as the week go on ...

This week I did a single topping at the 5th node. Along with this I applied low stress training and tucking to expose the new growth. The leaves seem a little dry on this one, think it’s because I needed a little better air movement In that area, rotated fans and adjusted Rh.

My Rainbow Melon plant is still one of the biggest in the tent, and it's definitely the smelliest so far. The only thing I'm not crazy about is how big the leaves are getting. It's been a challenging week with the constant rain and ridiculously high humidity. Keeping things dry indoors has been a real struggle. Despite the weather, I managed to flip all my feminized photoperiod plants to flower this week. I'm hoping the switch will go smoothly, but with this humidity, it's going to be tough.

Week 24 of growth, and this is the second week of flowering for the Pineapple Upside Down. Flowering has clearly declared itself now, with the first pistils appearing across the plant. That part is good news, but visually, the plant still isn’t where I’d like it to be. The foliage color is off, and I’m being honest: it makes me question the final yield potential. This probably won’t be the best run, but there’s no reason to panic or to quit. The plan is to keep things stable, finish the cycle cleanly, and take the lessons. Important timing clarification: this cultivar is advertised at around 45 days of total flowering, so we’re not “around day 45.” We’re simply early in flower, and the plant is already showing pistils properly. Stretch has remained quite limited so far. Is that purely genetics, or is it also influenced by the plant not being in peak shape? Hard to say. Either way, in a grow tent, limited stretch is honestly a comfortable scenario. Feeding-wise, the key point isn’t “soft feeding.” We’re staying under EC 2.0, with 2.0 as a ceiling, but the real note for this week is: no PK booster yet. For now, we hold the base feeding steady, and we’ll introduce PK later, progressively, depending on how the plant responds. So the strategy is simple: stabilize the environment, avoid adding stress, and let flowering build at its own pace. Next week we’ll reassess color, vigor, and early bud development, then decide when and how to ramp up.

Day 15 update; Morning; Was definitely a mistake to cut the leaves already.. I let the leaves stay on one of the 3 plants I have, and after it got repotted yesterday, growth have taken off completely.. It's 3 days younger than this one, and almost twice the size, having set the second set of leaves on the sidestems already. I'll add some fertilizer today, to the 2nd one I cut leaves on, and see how it goes, and then decide tomorrow if the other two will get some then or if waiting a few extra days is best. - It's looking incredibly healthy tho, for a plant that lost a bunch of it's roots yesterday.. It's hugging the light from the lamp with the rest of its leaves, even more than before. So hoping I didn't set growth back too much. - Added a video of the setup. It's nothing fancy, but should work nicely. Night; Still really healthy looking, and still hugging the light with pretty much every leaf, even the ones sprouting on the side have begun to do so.. Seems like it's starting to grow a little again as well, not much, but definitely a start to getting back on track. Day 16 update; She's definitely begun to grow again. Hopefully she'll catch up to the other two pretty fast. Day 17 update; There reqlly ian't much to say today. I think she's picking up the pace for growth, bit can't be too sure.. Day 18 update; There's no doubt that she's back to growing nicely again. She might even have a healthier green colour than before. Day 19 update; Morning; Pretty sure she's showing signs of the beginning of sexing this morning. A little earlier than I'd hoped, especially with the setbacks she's had. But she still got time to grow before flowering, so hopefully not a problem now that she's back on track. Evening; She popped a few hairs during the day.. I tried taking some better pictures, but damn phone camera just won't focus when getting closer than what I've uploaded, so I underlined the hairs slightly.. They hard to aee in the pic tho, but they're there. Night; She's set another couple of hairs at the top, they're very tiny tho and I still can't get a good picture. Growth is definitely progressing faster. Day 20 update; She's had a productive day. Definitely preparing to flower within the next week or so. Hairs should be pretty noticable on the top-down pic this time around, the way it looks close up, it could be suspected that she was already flowering. Day 21 update; Not quite flowering yet, but definitely very close from the looks of her top.. another couple of days, and she'll be there.
