Popped in less than 24h, then tilted so the root could grow straight and put into substrate after about 48h.

Everything ran smoothly with this girl. In a hurry to get growing. The light brown powder on the soil surface is cinnamon. Had some damping off issues and used it to try to get rid of the fungus and the gnats.

Not much to report, she's doing well. Winter lasted longer than usual, but started to warm up slowly.

Weather warmed up and she made some great progress! Started feeding her some FPJ and LAB I made. Trying to get away from bottles and seems to be working well so far, but still lots to learn and experiment with.

Another good week of progress. Weather is warming up, but also have the humidity dropping. She's been happy despite it not being the best conditions for her. Flowers have started to develop and some nice little branches at the bottom.

Another good week, she's not huge, but the flowers are starting to bulk up and getting some purples and pinks coming through.

Another good week. Slightly cooler and she loved it. She's really packing on weight fast and doesn't look like she's slowing down any time soon! Starting to really look beautiful with the white pistils and green and purple flower. Some good sweet smells coming off her.

She's still fattening up with little sign of slowing down and the pinks and purples are coming in even stronger. The Strawberry terps are starting to come on strong with a nice doughy kush. Started with some FFJ this week

Another good week, a bit on the hot and dry side, but she's happy and still fattening up and the smell is starting to get stronger and even more amazing.

Another good week. Such a beautiful girl, I had to have some fun with smoke, gels and my flashes. I can't believe how nice and fat the cola is on such a small plant, really keen to try and get her bigger in veg, but she's definitely on the favorites list.

Started the flush toward the end of the previous week and just water for her from here on out. She's slowly starting to wind down and her main cola is about as fat as a red bull can. Amazing Strawberry and Kushy terps coming off her and covered in trichomes. Will chop her before the end of next week, so the next update will be the harvest.

An easy girl to grow, she just wants to get done quick, so you need to make the most of the first 3/4 weeks. Once she starts flowering, she can eat!!! Never had any burn and she just kept getting fatter and fatter. She is incredibly beautiful, purple splashes all over with bright green to contrast with white stigmata. Her terps are just as beautiful as she looks. Sweet strawberry with a dank, kush like bg. She's a strong girl too and WPM tried to creep in, but got rid of it with very little effort. My only problem I had was a bit of botrytis, but cut it out and managed to save most of the flower. I suspect my defoliation in flower was a bad idea and the open wound inside a bud made it the perfect way for the plant to get an infection, so user error and nothing wrong with this strong, beautiful girl. I have been curing her for a while now and had some testers early on to see how she was doing and the strawberry and sweetness didn't come through for the first few months, she was more gas and kush, but still delicious. After 5/6 months, the sweetness came out and those strawberry terps are coming through strong in the smoke now and so happy. Amazing smoking experience and a good powerful kick that relaxes you and gives you that wonderful body tingling high. She doesn't put you to sleep, just a chill out vibe, so better for evenings and lazy days. She is definitely going on my list of favorites to grow lots more of!
