Red Hot Cookies by Sweet Seeds

I was running the light at 50% at first and started to see some plants stretching. On day 4 I increased the power to 60%, or so I thought. I turned out I had set it to a bit more, and this girl and one more started to show warped leaves. So, I turned it down to 60% again and moved these girls closer to the corners where the light is less intense. On day 4 I also installed the auto irrigation system since I had to leave the house for the weekend. I feed them every 6 hours. The light schedule has been switched to give them night in the afternoon since we have some seriously hot weather during summer. This gives them a day temp at 30-31 degrees C, and a night temp at around 25 degrees.

She's been doing well this week and added some weight. Tomorrow training begins with a topping to get the manifold started. I've had some problems with the feeding, but it's my own fault for using nutes that aren't coco specific.

This baby got topped on day 15 in preparation for the manifold. She's doing ok, but she could be happier for sure. That's something I'm working on....

She got transplanted into a larger pot on day 24. She has then been topped again and she's being trained into a better shape. She grows very well, and all previous symptoms of non-happiness are gone. Only old leaves still show their protests...

So, unfortunately I snapped one of her two stems during training. I'm expecting the 4 colas growing on that side to get slightly smaller. I snapped it right off, and it was hanging on by the skin. I taped it straight away and now 5 days later she's looking better than expected. I can't really see any difference between the shoots on the injured side. The topping is all done, and now we're waiting for it to veg for a bit while it's being trained.

I have kept training her for the manifold. Her split stem has healed extremely well, and that side has grown more or less the the same size as the other side. She's been building some nice fat branches, and I think we might see some fat buds in the end. She's now going for 36 hrs of night, and then I'm switching to flower. Tent sister Sweet Cherry Pie is 10 cm taller, and she's forcing me to switch.

This girl has done a fair bit of stretching the last week. She's growing very well and her 8 limbs are thick and strong. I'm expecting some fat buds to form.

This girl grows into a strong lady. She's getting thick branches and i believe we will see some fat buds... I had to shorten the legs of the grow table, and hopefully that will be enough height for all the girls in the tent. I've added a bit of fan action at pot level to make life a bit miserable for the fungus gnats that I have plenty of. I'm also ordering some yellow sticky traps.

This baby has been growing well, but now she's showing some unhappiness. She's the only one in the tent displaying unhappy leavers, and I don't know what the problem is. They all get the same juice. I have been defoliating quite a bit, and today I removed all the soft ties that were holding her down. I added some gnat traps and fans at pot level. I have plenty of gnats, but they should soon be gone...

This girl grows ok but she is unhappy about something. She's the only one in the tent that is sick. They all get the same feeding. I have tried to change the feeding a bit to see if it makes any difference. I'm trying with a bit more nutes and some PK booster.

I've had some problems with a feeding line, and this girl has suffered a bit at times. That should be sorted now. She doesn't show any red colours yet, but that might come still. I had to tie her up a bit to share the space better.

She is building up a nice layer of frost and the buds are thickening. Not much happens otherwise apart from removing the odd leaf and adjusting her branches around a bit. I believe i see a slightly red colouration of the buds. We'll see if they'll turn any more red the last few weeks...

She's starting to get a bit top heavy and she wants to lean over a bit. I have tied her up a bit more to share the space better. Her buds are getting beautifully sticky and I see a touch of red, but not that red yet.

She is stacking on weight beautifully. And with the weight she's getting more red. She's got a couple of more weeks to go and she's getting more and more trichomes.

This beautiful girl is almost ready for harvest. She's got deliciously looking red buds. The buds are solid and packed with trichomes. Unfortunately my smell doesn't work, so I have no idea what she smells like.

On day 108 she had had enough of it. She was getting heavy and her branches were sagging. She has beautiful red buds that glows with trichomes. She will slow dry for a few weeks before she'll be put in jars. She looks so tasty.

I submitted this poor girl for a lot os stress. During training one of the two branches was snapped right off and taped together. She recovered very well but showed some signs of stress for the rest of her growth. Still she produced some amazing flowers.
