The seed was free and i tried with no expectations. the plant maintained a deep green with great bud structure for lollipopping it made it easy to know what was able to be pruned or not quite easily. seemed to be very resistant to bugs. buds were dense but not as crystally as i might have expected, potentially i chopped a little too early.. *shrug* i will update when it has dried sufficiently

02/07 Nachdem wir in eine neue Woche starten, kann ich auch im Zelt wieder aufatmen. Die Temperaturen fallen, nachdem das Wetter in Regen umgeschlagen ist. die letzten Tage hatten wir bis zu 39°C draußen und dementsprechend musste ich die Lampe runter regeln und die Lüftung bis ans Limit arbeiten lassen. Phasenweise hatte ich 30,8°C im Zelt. Mittlerweile konnte ich die Lampe schon wieder etwas nach oben regeln und ich halte ungefähr 28°C. Heute gab es auch wieder eine kleine Ladung Eiswürfel. - - - - - - - - - - - - - 03/07 Heute gab es eine Ladung Dünger. Gemischt aus Wurmhumus und Herbi‘s Booster. - - - - - - - - - - - - - 05/07: Um das Purplen ein wenig zu unterstützen, habe ich heute eine Ladung Eiswürfel auf den Mulch gelegt. So triggert das kalte Wasser die Wurzeln und setzt im besten Fall die Anreize (durch die Produktion von Anthocyanen (pflanzliche Farbstoffe)), lila Blätter oder Blüten hervorzubringen.

Finally the end of the sixth week. I had very bright, slightly yellow leaves because i had given too much light and too little fertilizer. The lamp was then turned down to 80W and raised to 50cm height, so that the plant could calm down again. I also corrected the amount of fertilizer. Now she looks happier again 😇 Thanks also to @Seedler, I "tucked" the leaves under the buds and it worked very well. 🌱🌱🌱 Grow Hard. Go Pro.

6/13/2023 Week 10- Day 1 of Flower (Day 131 overall) (Day 70 of Flower) Auto Pilot Day 6.. Checked the Trichomes and the bud density and both are looking good.. Definitely needs a little more time for the Trichomes to be where I like, so based on my check I think we are still looking right around the end of the competition 22June to be done and ready for harvest. I do like that the fade is coming in the leaves nicely, so my chart I think is dropping off the Nitrogen exactly like it is supposed to. 6/14/2023 Week 10- Day 2 of Flower (Day 132 overall) Auto Pilot Day 7.. Decided I would take some contrasting pics today with my light up to 100 and my light all the way on Dim. I hope you enjoy the pics. 6/15/2023 Week 10- Day 3 of Flower (Day 133 overall) Auto Pilot Day 8.. Decided to take a look at the Trichome's today and Check to see where they are at and honestly if I might ho ahead and start my flush tomorrow and harvest on Sunday. 6/16/2023 Week 10- Day 4 of Flower (Day 134 overall) (Day 74 of Flower) Today I pulled an Armageddon however instead of darkness they are going to get 48 hours of light. The reason why they are going to get light instead of dark is when I was taking out the netting a lot of the buds were so heavy they fell over and exposed some areas I really want to get some light to... so 48 hours of light at 40% while I watch what should be a beautiful final fade as the plant eats up the last Nutes. If anything goes wrong I can abort take the photos and cut so will pay really close attention to how it is looking over the next 48 hours. Added 30 Gallons of PH only Water. Reduced Lighting to 40% removed program time off. 48 hours of light. 6/17/2023 Week 10- Day 5 of Flower (Day 135 overall) (Day 75 of Flower) I had someone tell me that a few growers had done as I did and Gone Armageddon on the plants. Filling it with PH only and said the plants did not respond well and they were taken out of the comp at the very end because they felt like the pictures just wouldn't come out right. Even though I did go Armageddon, The PPM is at 353PPM with the residue of what was left in the buckets after draining as well as what I am getting from the TAP so I think they are doing good but I am checking them every few hours to see how they seem to be doing and I think they are doing good still and are on track. I also started prepping the area for the pics tomorrow T-24 Hours until Chop 6/18/2023 Week 10- Day 6 of Flower (Day 136 overall) (Day 76 of Flower) (Harvest Day) What a day.. what a day.. what a day.. as I was setting up and trying to figure out how I was going to get my pics #3 stems started breaking, it fell over and other stems broke.. So no really stunning competition photo for her, she had such a nice purple fade.. #2 stayed up in the Tent so that is the one I had to go with to submit for the contest. I wet trimmed them as they went into the tent and they took up three rows hanging in tent. I also decided I wanted to try some so I put a little in the freeze dryer for a 48 hour smoke test.. I will weigh it and add that to my total weight for the plants when it is all done.

Beide Pflänzchen zeigen ihre ersten echten Blätter, somit ist die Keimung in meinen Augen weitestgehend beendet und die beiden starten in die erste Woche und ins neue Jahr, als zwei gesunde kleine Blümchen. Die als NR1 bezeichnete Pflanze stammt aus einem sehr dicken und deutlich getigerten Samen. NR2 stammt aus einem 1/3 kleineren grau/braunen Samen.

Esta ha sido una semana de intenso trabajo para las plantas a las que realicé poda apical y lst con un espacio de tiempo corto para la recuperación, pero respondieron genial. Parece que a esta variedad le puedes hacer cualquier cosa. Ni excesos ni carencias de nutrientes

03/05/2021 Beginning of week 4 looking good, I think she will start flowering in week 5-6, so I might top her, she is growing fast so I hope it will not harm flowering time. Ps. I did top And 24 hours later I can see all is well, where I topped her is healing, and side branches responding! I know she will be ready for flowering. Check out video and see.

7 archive seeds are legit super dense tricomb production like nothing I've seen b4. I would NEVER BUY SEEDS FROM ARCHIVESEEDBANK.COM.... they have great genetics but there customer service is garbage. This summer I spent 50 on these 3 seeds and 125 on a 12 pack of reg seeds of a diff strain the reg seeds didn't grow at all and archive never responded they sold me old ass seeds and stole my 125$ I'm happy I already got 32 seeds from the crappy plant of the 3 that I already cut down. I'm letting the last 2 finish up completely

In dieser Phase haben beide Pflanzen – 24K Gold und Gelato 33 – stark an Volumen gewonnen. Das Wachstum ist dicht und gesund, und die ersten Trainingstechniken zeigen klare Wirkung. Bei 24K Gold wurde ein gezieltes Topping durchgeführt, um die Seitentriebe zu fördern und ein flaches, gleichmäßiges Blätterdach zu formen. Die Pflanze reagierte stressfrei und zeigt bereits neue, kräftige Triebspitzen. Die internodale Abstände bleiben kompakt, die Blätter sind groß und tiefgrün – ein Hinweis auf starke Photosyntheseleistung. Gelato 33 wurde leicht gebunden (LST), um die Haupttriebe nach außen zu lenken und mehr Licht in die Mitte zu bringen. Das Resultat ist ein schön offenes Wachstum mit vielen gleichwertigen Triebspitzen. Ihr Aufbau bleibt kompakt, die Blätter sind breit und fleischig – typisch für die Indica-Dominanz dieser Genetik. Die Tropfbewässerung läuft konstant, und das Canna Coco A + B Schema wurde auf 4 ml/l erhöht. EC liegt bei etwa 1.4, pH bei 5.8–5.9. Die Pflanzen reagieren ideal auf die Dosierung, keine Anzeichen von Überdüngung oder Lockout. Klimabedingungen stabil: 🌡️ Temperatur ~25 °C 💧 Luftfeuchtigkeit ~60 % 💨 Luftzirkulation gut – Ventilator sorgt für kräftige Stämme Beide Pflanzen wirken vital, aufrecht und voller Energie. Das Fundament für das spätere ScroG-Netz ist gelegt. 24K Gold zeigt kräftige Vertikalpower – Gelato 33 besticht durch ihre symmetrische, buschige Struktur. Ein sehr erfolgreicher Abschnitt in der Veg-Phase – Training, Nährstoffversorgung und Wurzelentwicklung sind perfekt im Einklang

Whats up everybody! Since last week the ladies have been switched to a flowering light cycle. I eased them into the schedule over like three days just to give them a more natural transition. They all got most of their mature fan leaves removed from the bottom sections to open yo the bud sites to a little more light and airflow. After about the first day you could already see the new growth coming in and more bud sites starting to form. I also bent the dominant colas on all three plants to give them all more of an even canopy. Cant wait to see these babies start budding! I hope everyone has a Merry Christmas! 🎁🎄

11/24 and week nine Will be feeding Monday as well as a foliar of weak cal-mag Defoliating as well Tuesday Maggie's bud are beginning to cone as Layla and so that is hopeful. 11/27 Do not see much bud building on Brandy. Not a deficiency issue that I can see just the effect of the stunting. Considering harvesting Brandy cutting my losses and freeing light space for the others which we hope will pay off. Get some sleep see how it looks in the morning. 11/27 PM Brandy and the Runtz will be harvested this week as they are just ready to go and I want some of both :) Recharge and bio-bloom for Layla and Maggie just some water and a bit of recharge for Brandy. Just to see what happens PH 6.5 New pics and vid 11/29 new pics Going to let Brandy continue to ripen the Recharge seems to have triggered new hair growth 11/30 Changed the bulb on the Lights to a different maker (vivosun) and man what a difference. That old light was costing us! From now on that bulb is changed every six months.

Day 50! Start of week 8! I am watering with only 3800ml water and enough Bokashi Tea to get my PH to 6.5. The Bokashi Tea is derived from fresh Mango, Pineapple, Cantaloupe, Banana, Apples, Basil, Potato, and Inoculated Bran. In my opinion, “Terp Sauce”, helps insanely with the terps and many other things. Camera work is not my strong point. Day 53 Gave 3800ml of water with only enough Bokashi Tea to PH water to 6.8. Day 56 Gave 3800ml of water with only enough Bokashi Tea to PH water to 6.8.

It was a ride! My first ever indoor grow and I’m very pleased with how I filled up the tent, with autoflowers. The buds are looking dense so I’m guessing around 100 grams in dry buds 👌🏻

Beginning of week 9: Tropicana is 27 cm high and the stem is 38 cm long. Sun is back, rain stopped, happy growing. Day 57 🌤️⛅️🌤️🌤️ 10-23 degrees, humidity is between 70 and 80%. Today I checked the PH of my collected rainwater, of the drainage, of my field horsetail tee / manure. With the soil everything is ok I think. PH of the drainage is 5,9. I was very surprised about the high PH of my homemade fertilizer. Today I took some macro fotos with my new magnifying glasses. I saw the first purple leafs and trichomes everywhere. They are all clear I think. It‘s my first time growing a cannabis plant and I love it!😻 Day 58 🌤️🌥️☁️☁️ 13-23 degrees, humidity between 60 and 95%. Tropicana feels better now with more light. It‘s much brighter during the days but today again cloudy. In my eyes Tropicana looks happy and she is so beautiful. I want to bite in one of those buds, but I will not do yet. Maybe I will take some of the less lighted buds, harvest for tee with cream. I like to vape my cannabis and cook or bake with resin and butter. So I plan to let Tropicana take all the time she needs to produce enough amber medicine. Day 59 🌤️☀️🌤️⛅️ 12-24 degrees, humidity 65-80% The smell is incredible. I really like it. Day 60 🌤️⛅️🌤️🌥️ 11-25 degrees, humidity 62-78%. This morning Tropicana got a bio banana shake which I prepared yesterday evening. I chopped three banana peels and boiled them in one liter of water for short. After I blended them together wit the water and let it stand overnight. Then I sifted the fertilizer in the early morning and gave Tropicana her breakfast: 700ml rainwater and 70ml of my banana fertilizer. The drainage had a PH of 6 On nearly all flowers it‘s possible to find purple colors. The pistils started to change the colors. Our balcony is in the first floor and today it was possible to smell Tropicana down on the street next to the house. 🤭 Day 61 🌤️☀️☀️☀️ 11-26 degrees, humidity 55-75%. Today it was very obvious that Tropicana started fatten up the buds to mature: Different colors, very strong smell, pistils are getting orange. I spotted the first amber trichomes. I could have a nice and potent June harvest but I think it will finish in the first week of July. Day 62 🌤️⛅️🌤️⛅️ 13-21 degrees, humidity is 50-60%. Tropicana enjoys the morning sun while I drink a fresh hemp leaf tee and reflect the last two month of my legal balcony grow. I watered with 700ml pure rainwater. The run off PH ist around 6,3. So I‘m quit sure that the reason for the increase in PH was the watering with the field horsetail manure, which has got a high PH something like more then 7. Day 63 ☀️☀️☀️☀️ 13-20 degrees and the humidity is between 66 and 85 % Beautiful monday morning. Tropicana asked for a banana smoothie, today 1:20 mixed with 700 ml. pure rainwater. She likes to drink it slowly, so I don‘t water all in one anymore. First maybe 20%, 10 minutes later 30% and after half an hour 50%. If I watered all in one, 100 ml of 700 ml run off. If I water step by step, all of the water stays in the pot. After 24 h the pot is much lighter and I need to water again. She is very thirsty in these days.

Brutal genetic! Just like that BRUTAL. Tons of resin, super strong woody pimey smell, very beautiful strain to grow, beautiful indica leafs, I know that this is one of those indicas that once you smoke that dense smoke you won't be able to get up from the couch, very strong genetic, I'm so fortunate to have this lady in my garden man! Definitely want to grow her again next season and make a big nice bush.peace!✌️🙏❤️🌱👨‍🌾
