This was a freebie from the dude in the shop. I grew Crystal Candy (3 or 4 plants) back in 2021 and the results were excellent - it was one of the best that year. It will be nice to revisit this strain :)

Horrendous week - weather terrible, barely a moment of sunshine. A little bit in the morning but otherwise grey and overcast. Surprised at how well they are doing considering the circumstances. Temperatures are good - humidity is also probably quite pleasant for them in their little makeshift greenhouse. Have moved half outside. Seem big enough not to get eaten by birds (famous last words) Weather should pick up next week and I'm hoping to see a nice boost.

Well, the sun has finally come out to play and good weather has been restored. Using the heat to dry up some of that rain water - the pots were water-logged for a good 2 - 3 days - now they're finally starting to feel a lot lighter. Same nutrient schedule. Surprised to see the cheap seeds (all the Linda grows) are doing so well - outperforming some of the big guns here. But time will tell :)

Another tough week - still experiencing good days up to the afternoon and then torrential downpours for the evening. Temperatures are good and plants do seem okay in general - there's been a massive shift between week 4 and 5 - They're starting to really take shape now. Added Bio Bizz Cal Mag to nutrients

Weather has finally stabilised somewhat - temps are good. Crystal Candy is looking particularly impressive at this early stage. Large sturdy plant, should be a good one - as always, highly reliable Sweet Seeds genetics.

Another week, another downpour. Mostly stable weather - but now it's climbing rapidly with temps expected to exceed the 30s this weekend. So it's a race against time at this point - and this is why it's best to plant autos late April in this zone. I'm not sure, but I think I'm discovering the joys of cal mag this year. Never used it before - and just adding 1ml per litre - and using once a week. But is this the magic nectar that makes plants super fat? Either that or the regular sprays of Fish Mix on the leaves every evening. But I'm leaning towards the cal mag. Something is certainly different this year - yields are looking like they'll be a lot higher across the board :)

A super hot week with moderate humidity during the night. Interesting to compare all these plants to see how much genetics plays a roll in things. All plants are treated equally, but they're not all guaranteed to come out the same - with all sorts of shapes and sizes. At 9 weeks from seed I'm now frantically trying to figure out when to harvest - I use a magnifying glass with 50x zoom (or something like that) - Trichomes are generally cloudy, some clear and just a hint of brown. So, certainly another week for most. This is always the most difficult part for me.

Not impressed at all with this one - it's just pure fox tailed buds and very little else - they're not even very dense. I had a much, much, better result from Crystal Candy XL (auto) a few years ago. I'll be lucky to make an ounce with this one - probably closer to a half.

Super sticky and a decent yield - but very strange growth with lots of fox-tailing with the buds. Lovely smell - will update when dried and cured.

I don't think it too well to the heat/downpours - something clearly went wrong early in the flowering stage.
