Poor thing dryed overnight as i was working tired and didnt pay enought attention to them. I think she will survive as her root stayed healthy white. Did get enought substrate so wil be planting her tomorrow.

The tap roots were out i decided to move them into a paper towel and into the hot tent as i didnt had enough substrate to plant them, wasent best idea.

I decided to geminate one tropicanna and one jack 47 because it fits my schedule... let them grow for about a month or so until the O.C.P. Auto is done and then switch her to flowering along with the regular. The only problem is the regular as been growing for about 6 months now, and when i switch her i might not have space for 3 plants in the tent.. but thats a problem for future me... Lets try and raise to the occasion..

Well some demon's hand was at play here, not mine. I planted her, and then watered the medium because it was new and dry.. Big surprise i lost the line of sight with the head of the seed. Concerned she borrowed to deeply i sent out a search party. Needless to say the search party wasent educated in sensitivity control, and was a bit high and drunk to be honest.. xD So my fat fingers found her, but aparently ripped her head off xD RIP Tropicanna poison #1... and lets welcome our newest addition, another tropicanna seed. This time, planted directly in the soil, and no search parties are allowed to be sent in case of flood.. Ill just have to keep my fingers crossed, like in nature xD

After almost killing the seeds with a overnight drought i planted them in 10 lt pots.But i think theyl live... I runned out of soil, and didnt want to go more soiless than 50% so i will be adding some hot soil in 3-4 weeks and mix it in the pot.
Also as you guiys can see, ive got hard work ahead trying to fit all 3 plants in the 60cm wardrobe, i really need a veg tent, any sponsor for light and tents is appreciatedd :PPPP
Happy grows everyone :D

So second seed, she as already poped out of the groud. I wont make a new diary for her, as shit happens and were gona live on, so this is my tropicanna, the backup , but dont tell her. :P She'll be strong, i cant tell it. I know they are gonna reach for the light, as my Orphi is tacking all light for herself, but thats ok. i m gonna give her a fresh batch of coco+perlite+vermiculite at the top. The grandma smell of the coco i got is gone, so i know that after hydrated it gets better xP Maybe the quality wasent the best.. hhehe
Also considering to go a diferent line of additives in this run, maybe some organic, or maybe just the tripack flora version that gives more control. Im regreting the lack of control of my only-two-bottles-feed at the end of Orphies run, as im struggling with nutrient balance.
Anyways... Quit rambling... Happy grows everyone :D
Everything is going fine! Maybe slower than her sister? But considering she died and restarted I guess maybe she isn't slow... don't know will have to see later on. 👊

I haven't been the luckiest guy with this strain, but life has taught me that things come around most of the time... sometimes not the way we wanted them to be, but still. And always. We will see about this champ... I've got my hopes set for it, that's for sure! I hope for her to be a healthy plant and be allowed the space she deserves! But life is a jungle! ;)
Happy grow everyone!
I'll probably be killing this one, don't know if it was ph or mutant, but considering I had another seedling feed with the same water on the same soil, I would say genetics. I'll probably be poping 2 seeds of these girls very soon as I want to be satisfied xP
She finally started growing, after throwing a month tantrum over calcium build up from unbuffered coco or ph.(my best guess). She is now starting to grow like a normal healthy plant, ive added some nutrients to her feeding that probably helped fix whatever was wrong with her. This one im sure it is a tropicanna xD So right now i got 2 tropicanna's going and 1 jack that its gonna survive the coco madness aswell.
Hey guys. Im happy on how she is developing. As in the other tropicanna plant i have, i only bent her to level her up, even though the main top was lower than the rest of the buds, only the main cola developed nicely. So im topping her now, think its third or forth node,she is as old as the other one wich is almost done. But was stunned for about one month maybe month and half. Damn coco xD we will try to keep this one a bit longer on veg an get multiple main colas,6 to 8, dont know will see. I do hope i get some nice colorfull buds like her sister. Thanks for reading, happy grows everyone. Also this week i upped her nutrients to full veg. Not much more,1.5x more. From babies milk to veg.
Topped second time today as she as recovered from the first one. Really loving this plant really pretty short bulky. Second plant of this strain i have and i love it, eats nutrients well, comes out with vigorous growth. Last time was only one LST session, the train, so now im gonna try to get more colas out of her, see if she is still as bulky in all of them as her sister ^^ WOnt push for more than 4 mains, would really love getting similar thickness. Unfortunatly we lost a month in some kind of stun, probablt coco's blame, but oh well it happens... Really hope for smooth rides from now on.. Cheers!
Had to repot her and did a bit lst the day after. Only have pics of the repotting. Will take more soon.
Now that she has been repotted a week ago, i thought i would give her another week before i switch her to flowering. Ive been giving her gh roots this next week aswell to help her rebounce from transplant, aslong with the regular feed.
Kinda should have lsted and defoliated her more and sooner, but it has been an hard task keeping the ball rolling. Still beautiful plant, healthy, vigorous. Doubt it will turn purple though..
Ill be harvesting next week. Beautifull fade colors on the leaves. The red began showing up on them, buds are still green though, wich is not a problem. Still a beautifull plant, as all tropicannas ive grown so far, this on os gor sure the biggest, but took 5 months to be done. Harvested next week. Will fill the harvest week once dried and weighted.
She runned nicelly till the end, never got the reds into the buds, but do love the fades on the leafs. Awesome quantities of bud, yet some are a bit airy and leafy, probably my fault.
