damn_dorothea Looking good 👍

damn_dorothea Growing slowly but her leaves are nice and big.

damn_dorothea New growth is a little yellow but i’m gonna wait and see what happens from here. It has been extra cold these past 2 weeks and the space heater I have been using is not helping much.

damn_dorothea Finally got the heat dialed in, and now the grow space stays in the high 60s and 70s rather than the low 60s. Nights are still cold but the plants all look so much happier, especially little Bruce here. Her neighbor started looking droopy this week so I moved her out from under the light and moved the light onto Bruce. I’ll be watching to see how she likes the change.

damn_dorothea So begins another week. I’m starting to see some branching, yay 😁 Top dressed with dry fertilizer, 2 scoops, lightly watered in.

damn_dorothea Leaf tips are yellowing a bit. It could be nutes or maybe cold? Other than that she’s doing great, lots of new branches coming in. Spotted the first pre-flowers on the main stem. Top dressed with 3 scoops of flower girl, as well as the solids from the tea I fed the growoff plants. Oops 😬 I broke a frickin branch halfway through while attempting to LST with the thick wire. Bandaged it with a small piece of duct tape. The branch was mostly recovered the next day and fully recovered the day after that!

damn_dorothea And so begins a new week for my beautiful green friend 🧑‍🎤 Unfortunately I broke the wounded branch so I pruned it off. I bought an aloe Vera for the grow space so I’m prepared for such tragedies in the future! She still looks like she will be a big girl though. Watered with Flower girl and molasses tea + banana peel water diluted to 3 liters.

damn_dorothea Howdy 🤠 no flowers yet 🌼 she’s taking her sweet time. Started the week with a freshly watered bucket, a little browning and yellowing on my leaf tips which I will keep an eye on.

damn_dorothea I harvested one of my mature growoff plants and moved Bruce to her old spot in the flowering area of my grow space. Started the week with more LST and defoliation. Pruned the lowest branch and a couple of the fan leaves that were blocking light from the new growth. I’m happy with her even though she’s taking her time getting into flower. I think this could be the week I’ll start to see the buds forming.

damn_dorothea Yaaaay flowers 💐🌸💐🌹💐🌸💐 She’s blooming so pretty 🤩 Top dressed with 3 scoops flower girl this week. Trimmed a few leaves. May defoliate a bit next week as the Moon waxes.

damn_dorothea Flowers growing By the drunken river Flowers growing By the burning bridges Flowers growing Out of my bones On the toppled towers flowers growing On an island above flowers growing Behind a mirror, behind a door Flowers growing Drifting fires of orange flowers Roll down the stair, down from a star Where they lie so long, beneath the seasons Dead among the Camper Van Beethoven 1989 https://youtu.be/Zdy5rcGPixc Defoliation this week Top dressed with 3 scoops flower girl A little bit of final LST

damn_dorothea Dr earth tea: 2 scoops flower girl + 1 tbsp honey + 1 quart water, steeped overnight then diluted and watered in. Remodeled the grow area to make best use of the insulating wrap from the old water heater. The old Mylar was falling so I took most of it down. I re-taped the insulation with a different tape that sticks to the basement wall better. Rearranged to make space to start plants for the garden! Starting peppers this week and maybe tomatoes.

damn_dorothea The flowers are looking so good, strong luminous white tendrils reaching out. Some nice fat buds appearing. Defoliated and removed the larfy growth, down to about 15 tops now. Heavy feeding this week around the full moon. Top dressed and did a liquid application of 2 scoops + molasses.

damn_dorothea She’s growing up and getting frosty. Looking hungry this week.

damn_dorothea She’s looking happy as a…. Tree in fish shit? She has been looking a little hungry so I brewed up a flower girl tea for her. 3 scoops + molasses + water, w the bubbler overnight + fish shit. I realize at the end of this week that she’s getting close. I have enjoyed this lady so much. She’s breathtakingly beautiful and smells delicious, like citrusy pine. Buds are looking 🔥 I’m actually sad that she only has a week or 2 left.

damn_dorothea I can see the end As it begins My one condition is: Say you’ll remember me Standing in a nice dress Staring at the sunset, babe 🌅 Cloudy trichs and rosy leaves Say you’ll see me again Even if it’s just in your wildest dreams -Bruce Banner (Taylor’s version) I’m in love with this strain. This plant is an incredible beauty and smells like the best thing in the world too. Makes me a little sad and wistful to think of harvest coming soon. Light feeding this week as she finishes up. 1 scoop flower girl + molasses + fish 💩

damn_dorothea I loved growing this strain from @Sweet_Seeds! I’ll definitely try their genetics again. She’s beautiful and vigorous and smells amazing with pine and citrus notes that remind me of my time in Colorado. My best grow yet.
