Discovered preflower on June 6. Started light bloom feed on #1 and will compare to #2 in one week for further feeding. Will run second soil test at same time.

Day 49 - 14th Day of Flower I'm starting to really enjoy this part of the grow. That said the amount they have stretched is crazy! My lights are maxed out height wise and they are only just 18" above the tallest colas so I really hope they finish up stretching soon. Nutes: I added PK13/14 for fridays feed and they seem to have responded really well to it. They have been fed every other day as they aren't quite drying up in 24 hours. One thing I have noticed this week is the smell! They have become incredibly pungent. Everytime i go in the tent I have to change my clothes as they just smell so much. The fan leaves around the bud sites are becoming sticky! I have taken the smallest one out to photograph this week. It was sick when i got it as cutting so wasn't topped as early as the others. That said it seems to have grown into a really nice shape and has lots of buds developing. No problems really this week. Just a bit of mild light burn which I kept on top of. They will have 1 more defoliation this week and then I'll leave them be.

I'm glad I found GD it's helped me asking the prices of this very First Ever grow... plug.. I learned allot and have started germinating my next set. On to the next One/Week...

[UPDATE] 18/07/24 (WEEK 4 & 5) Continuation of week 4, will comeback and update this week with updates of plants recovery. Week 5 will be included with this update. Replacement of drip lines to NetBow halo rings by Netafim for a more uniformed watering Will be updating Germination week page with my current watering system set-up and it's upgrade next week along with EzRunOff Pump by The Bucket Company.

Battered & bruised. Give her another week in 14 then next week its 10/14. Nature uses: Mass Flow (Barometric Pumping): This refers to the bulk movement of air through soil pores caused by pressure differences. Fluctuations in barometric pressure (high and low pressure fronts) and wind speed over the surface create these pressure differentials, which can force air in or out of the soil. This is how soil "breathes" so to speak. Barometric pressure fluctuations can cause day-to-day variations in gas emissions by a factor of 20 to 35 times, a dynamic response that highlights its importance in the overall carbon cycle. Indoor growers use: Negative pressure can replicate the effects of barometric pumping by creating pressure differentials that induce air to flow in and CO2 and nitrogen out in a controlled manner. Carbon dioxide is released by microorganisms when they eat sugars, when there is no mass flow in a cycle/system where microorganisms are releasing CO2 from eating sugars, the CO2 accumulates in the medium, leading to several significant effects: cut a long story short, the lack of mass flow prevents essential gas exchange, causing the waste product (CO2) to become a self-inhibiting factor that limits the microbial activity and can eventually kill the organisms. Increasing the amount of carbon in a soil increases its moisture retention, an often-overlooked detail that often ends up around the 4th week of flower, people wondering why hypoxia occurred. Around 40% of all the carbon captured is exuded into the soil to feed microorganisms and converted to chemical energy; CO2 accumulates. This is why it's required if you want to reuse the soil. CO2 is a very stable molecule, sitting at a "bottom of the potential energy well". A significant amount of energy is required to break its strong bonds and convert it into a higher-energy, more useful molecule (like a fuel). Converting CO2 back into fuels requires the same amount of energy released during its original combustion (due to the conservation of energy), which often makes the process energy-intensive and expensive. Therein lies the key, 90% of the air that enters the tent, enters through the rootzones, up and through the underside of plant canopy, air comes in but all the CO2 accumulates in bottom half of the tent due to its density. The exhaust linked to rh keeps a constant negative pressure that links to the rate of cellular respiration performed at night. Come morning the compensation point is upwards of 1500pmm by morning. 300 dollar grow light on its 15th grow. The real star of the show is the 14000btu Portable ac unit.

We’re approaching the finish line — the top buds are already nearly perfect. I’m just giving the lower ones a few more days before putting her into a 48-hour dark phase.

This was the runt of the bunch from the beginning and started flowering a week before the others. Seemed like in veg it didn't have enough nitrogen (yellow/green leaves) and in flower it had too much causing the bottom new leaves to grow kinda mutated and dark green. Even with those issues she still packed on solid dense buds covered in trichomes. pulled off 253 grams wet after trimming and 57 grams of trim will update with dry weight when ready

Woche 17

W5 D29 Aujourd'hui 1er jour de la 5ème semaine de croissance. J'ai rempoté la petite dans son pot définitif 30, 35 L environ. C'est de la terre de récupération, j'y avais mis un peu d orties pour la régénérer mais rien de bien terrible on verra si l arrosage au thé de compost serra encore aussi efficace malgré le temps passé 3j. Je la laisse prendre encore 1 peu de place dans la tente, les racines envahir le substrat et elle partira en flo avec une Tropicanna poison qui est déjà 1peu plus développée et également ds le même type de pot et pour suivre une critical+. Bon le monde à plus tard.

Update: 29/07 - Thought I would include a short video which shows that I have quite a small space to work with and my setup. She’s looking good and seems happy, swelling away in her garden and is even starting to get purple tints! She’s living up to her name, the purple pheno is quite rare so I’m super chuffed. Welcome to week 10! As you can clearly see by the pictures, she’s doing well and covered in sugar! Pistils are still quite white although a few are starting to darken, trichomes are becoming increasingly cloudy with a few that are amber but still a small amount. I am going to harvest a bit later to grab a bit more CBN. Buds are fattening up and she’s turned out to become a real stunner, for a first grow I’m sitting quite proud of myself. Peace brothers and sisters ✌️

Not good news here. Shes a stubby. Still in the garden, but not for long

14.10.24 BT# 24 Servus Leute ✌️ Woche 4 der Blüte ist angebrochen und die Pineapple Express riecht immer mehr nach Ananas. Ihre Buds werden immer dicker und bekommen langsam eine Struktur, die Buds sind ziemlich fest (Dicht). Die Farben erinnern auch immer mehr an eine Ananas Barney's Farm hat da ein ganz feinen Strain entwickelt mit einer sehr guten Gentik. Gestern gab es wieder Nährstoffe mit ner Extra Portion Phosphor was sie jetzt dringend braucht. Vielen Dank fürs Vorbeischauen das nächste Update kommt nächste Woche in diesem Sinne bleibt Cool & Stay High. Mögen all eure Ladys Gesund und prächtig wachsen und euch mit schmackhaften Stuff versorgen 💚😍 ■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■ 14.10.24 BT# 24 Hi folks ✌️ Week 4 of flowering has begun and Pineapple Express smells more and more like pineapple. Her buds are getting thicker and thicker and slowly getting a structure, the buds are quite firm (dense). The colors also remind more and more of a pineapple. Barney's Farm has developed a very fine strain with very good genetics. Yesterday she was given nutrients again with an extra portion of phosphorus, which she now urgently needs. Thanks for stopping by, the next update will be next week so stay cool & stay high. May all your ladies grow healthy and splendid and provide you with tasty stuff 💚😍
