Solid week of growth. A2 responded to being turned sideways by turning into a vine, which is great behavior for outdoor growing. The only problem I did encounter was aphid nesting. 2/3 were covered in eggs and fresh hatched bugs. The leaf damage hasn’t been bad yet and I pulled all water leaves to aid in them moving on. Sprayed with azamax and neem oil to help keep them clear.

Pinched the stick and pinned back what I could. The big issue has been greatly reduced but not gone. Slugs of course as well. Did great despite lots of water and lower temps. Very cold hearty fyi.

These 3 are as different as can be. All have added growth. Just been a little slow due to colder wet weather. I’m going to enjoy watching these 3 be the same but different.

My split top girl had a worm in the center stalk. I removed the stalk and destroyed the worm. Pretty sure I’ll be calling it the sisters of fate now. Since there are 3 central stalks and I saved it from a worse fate. The topped plant is branching fine now and growing well. So is the legged out lady.

This has been a solid period for the Tangerine Dream. A1- pushed growth has led to early branches becoming solid stalks. The middle branches are now starting to shoot out pretty heavy which is exactly what we want. Still tied down tight. Eating very heavy. A2- I did a second round of topping to continue pushing branch growth. Taking on a great shape and is reaching. Also a heavy eater. A3- the sisters are doing great. I topped the oldest sister and I’ve started to do some LST to separate the sisters a little. Really starting to catch up some. Weather has been great besides the lack of rain. Decent smell nothing crazy. Just sticking to our growth plan and keeping it rolling

The leggy lady received another Round of topping. The other two sisters on my tripod also caught a shave. The pinned down one is ready for vertical growth. Heavy feeding, solid weather and pest free currently. Happy growing!!

Throwing strong signals for preflower. I have used a combo of my ferts and will start to peel back the nitrogen based stuff. All 3 of these plants have different shapes but I fully expect B2/B1 to have higher yields than the sisters 3. The tall lady of the bunch is showing the strongest pre-flower signs. I have big bud and bud candy on deck ready to roll. I will also be ordering seablast bloom as my organic. I am not unhappy with the size of these guys as there is still plenty of stretch time. I think I was too heavy handed defoliating early on that led to a smaller size then in previous years. It is all a process. Weather has been a mixed bag. Mostly warm and humid. Plenty of rain. I expect all 3 will move to flowering phase by my next update. Grow on!

These plants are all so great. The tallest is easily my furthest along. All 3 of these should really yield something nice. Little more prone to the PMD then some of the others but still clearing off nice. Pretty happy with over all shape. Hopefully they will continue to stretch and fill in nicely!

Everything just started firing off hard and fast. Plant 3 is so far along and I really dig the smells. The sisters are doing well and forming a unique structure with what’s bound to be 4 nice colas. Over all really happy with how these are shaping up. Stacking so nice. Weather has been an absolute dog. PMD is out in force. I’ve been trimming out affected veg and treating with neem oil and Trifecta. Plants show visible signs of stress. Large chunks of rain, humidity hovering between 75-100% during the whole day. Defoliating- certainly clearing out the bottom third of each branch and trying to keep them vented for good air flow. The water leaves have started self defoliating as well. Sign of good breeding. The smells are starting to get pretty strong! Let the stacking commence!!! May she always sign on your garden!

Currently about 4 weeks in. Looking to be done somewhere between the 26th and the 7th. Going to be some decent colas on these and I am really happy about it. The smell is like old fruit foot and gas. Weather- what a fucking nightmare. High winds, strong storms, heavy rains. Thankfully wind damage has been reduced to a few branches. Thank you armor si! Humidity has been in the 100% range at night and 90% or more during the day. Using Trifecta and Neem Oil to fight the PMD along with cutting away heavily infected areas. Dunking at the end of the season for outdoor now just became reality. See what I can do to fight the menace. Defoliating- opened them up pretty heavy and they were fine with it. Been feeding them heavy PK plus sugars. The finish line is closing in probably do one more feeding and cut it off.

These are all at different phases. The sisters are a really indica dominant pheno. The flowering structure is just a dead give away. Smell varies from straight foot to dank veg in order of largest to smallest. One is in flush then single and double dose left for the others. Weather- has still been absolutely shit. High amounts of rain and high humidity. The last two days have seen a return to normal temps and conditions. I think we are almost at 4.5 inches of rainfall for September it’s been brutal. I have flushed the tallest and furthest along. Will be looking to start chopping possibly around 9/20 based on trichomes and density. Defoliating- venting these ladies and taking any unnecessary foliage so I can to help them dry out faster and breath. Really trying to avoid any PM or Bud rot issues. Really excited about these 3. Hoping the taste is a home run. The smells are amazing! We are almost there friends!

There is only one of these left in the wild. I chopped the tall one due to being pretty much done. Was a hybrid that I wanted to keep more on the sativa end. The three sisters was chopped yesterday due to the weather and location. These have been in flush since the 17th. Probably continue to push as long as I can on this last one. Budrot is a constant battle. Opening buds up removing worms and their nests or pulling white fluff. If I pull fluff I have been using alcohol wipes on the infected area. These are simple lense cleaning wipes for safety glasses. This has killed the starting colonies and prevented further growth and spread so far. Weather- I’m not sure if I’ve mentioned the weather has been absolutely shit but it’s been an absolute bell head. Cold temps have finally come with the rain. I am shaking the plants accordingly and trying to do what I can. I don’t foresee anything that’s left going past the next full moon. Tricomes- starting to turn amber farthest out on the leaf. Still milky white inside. The train keeps rolling! Hold fast my growmies I’m praying to the mother for us all. 🙏
