D10 - 9.25 - just growing, still hoping the stunted LA Sunset catches up. All have good roots forming. Under a "300w" YGrow 12-band full spectrum light which is pulling about 130w from the plug D13 - 9.28 - Repotted and moved to the big tent

D23 - 10.8 - Got them topped a few days ago and they have recovered well. D25 - 10.10 - Suffering from an unseasonable heat wave and fighting to keep temps down the past 48 hours. About 4 days ago I noticed the slightest bit of discoloration on the new growth from both plants. The LA Sunset appears to have gotten over it and greened up fully, but the Passion Berry is givin me a bit of a fright. Please check it out and let me know what yall think. I'd be so grateful 🙏 D27 - 10.12 - I'm scared spitless right now. I've treated with insecticidal soap and neem oil the past two days right before lights out. It doesn't appear to be getting worse on the PB, but I noticed so spindly looking growth coming in on my other plants including the LA Sunset, so I'm going into full war mode against these mites. Plan: treat with some heavy duty stuff to be procured today. Predatory mites and lady bugs on their way. Will release them as soon as they arrive. I want to use some diatomaceous earth, but I'm afraid that will counter my predatory mites and lady bugs?? Help! Taking any and all advice on getting this shit under control!!

Please help me identify what is going on with my Passion Berry's new growth! Heat/light stress? 36in under 2 of http://a.co/d/bTRWIFI What should I do? I find it odd that it showed up only on the two strains from TCC, though the LA Sunset seems to have got over it. Thank you!

Hey there sorry to say you caught yourself some microscopic insects. That cupping and wierd look is because those little pests and walking on your leaves and sucking the juice out of the leaf stems. There's folks who say that this can be treated but it's extremely hard and the results can be mixed. try better airflow and buying a couple insecticide foggers that you can use. Good luck my friend, i hope it works out 🚀

10.23 - The LA Sunset was the original plant showing russell/broad mite like damage, but it has recovered well. The Passion Berry suffered a lot after treatment, but I trimmed bad growth and decided to salvage and see if I can get the funny triple growth tips to grow a bit before switching into flower.

D38 - 10.26 - Looking at that first LA Sunset all trained down, can you believe it was the first plant to show signs of the broad/russet mites I fough off!? I finally got around to transplanting the other LA Sunset I had in a solo up until now cuz it was super runted from early on. The Passion berry is struggling, but those growth tips poke out a little more every day, so spirits are high 😉

D44 - 10.30 - We're still cranking along getting as much growth as we can in the next 7-14 days. These are the funkiest of my girls right now so we shall see how they shape up 👽 D47 - 11.2 - Veggin out frens 😁 D49 - 11.4 - Loved the foliar spray! These triplet growth tips are super neat though I predict some crowding in flower.

D53/F2 - 11.8 - These babies were switched to 12/12 and amended with mulch and doses of good bugs and mycos! Love how crazy that top on LA Sunset is getting to be! Going to defoliate in a couple days I think at the moment. Heck I'm stok(n)ed. <3' D55/F4 - 11.10 - Looking good defoliated and stretching!

D56/F8 - 11.14 - The LA Sunset and Passion Berry in the 5x4 have gone absolutely beast mode. I'm loving it. Nothing new to report except the obviously responded well to defoliation, got them some peony rings and a blumat system, which is really impressing me so far!! D59/F11 - 11.17 - the smaller LA Sunset in the 3 gallon is stretching very noticeably but maintaining and nice internode distance 👌 D60/F12 - 11.18 - These plants are vigorous as heck. The Passion Berry is absolutely dominating the stretch <3

D63/F15 - 11.21 - easily the most vigorous plants in the tent. The passion berry has unbelievable structure and stretch. She stands about 6 inches taller than all the others today. I have 5 more fem'd Passion Berry seeds. 😈Depending on how this one finishes and the bud profile, they might get their own tent next run. D66/F18 - 11.24 - Little LA sunset that was such a runt for so long is starting to put on buds all nice. Gonna defoliate her in 4-5 days. More pics to come of the big girls tomorrow after they get defoliated 👍 D67/F19 - 11.25 - Defoliation is complete! Everything is looking great! D69/F21 - 11.27 - the little LA Sunset is looking just dandy, a few more days until the last little defoliation session.

D71/F24 - 11.29 - There's not much to say about these two. They didn't even hiccup after the defoliation, though it does appear their stretch has just about finished. They both have fat greasy prebuds right now, and the Passion Berry has particularly long pistils. A pleasure to watch em grow! <3 D76/F29 - 12.4 - Just like holy fuck these things are monsters. 🙏🙌 Praise be to Swerve 👑, I'm astonished at the pace and vigor of these two plants

12.29 - F54 - WOW. These two are looking mighty fine. Hoping to see them fade and shift to amber trichs in the next week! Can't wait to get these chopped! 12.31 - F56 - Update on the small LA Sunset that was originally runted. Got a litte reveg from a light mishap while I was away. PSA - get a fucking knowledgeable caretaker. Just went into a 36 hour dark period. First time doing a dark period and have two similar sized Star Pupils with it. Gonna be a good little harvest in a few days! :)

1.5 - F60 - These two are still just so awesome and beautiful. They vibe so hard and are super unique. I think the the LA Sunset has another 5 darks on her and the Passion Berry another 10 darks. But the orange hairs on the LA and this platinum/pink hue the Passion Berry is starting to take on is jaw-dropping.

1.14 - F69 - I cut the LA Sunset and Passion Berry this morning and strung them up in the dark. I didn't lollipop terribly aggressively and decided to take the lower larf and popcorn buds for fresh frozen hash. I took 64g of Passion Berry and 70g or so of LA Sunset. Left all of the nice big full cola flowers for smoke :} 1.28 - I'm so tired of writing here but this shit is dope. Favorite plant, second favorite smoke.

1.5 - This lady had some fungus gnat damage and reveg'd a bit so I decided to practice my bubble hash method. I didn't even weigh it haha, I totally forgot but looks about .75oz (21g) Turned out really well! Very strong stoney, sedative high. I accidentally mixed my 76-120 and 120-220 from the first wash, during microplaning, so it's like 4.7* I think. The 25-76um is a little better. Totally worthy of a nail, though I wish I could give it a melt on some quartz to see. :) The other big, non-revegged LA Sunset looks completely different and is thriving. Expecting to put her in the dark this weekend.0 1.28 - I harvested the second full size LA Sunset and it is amazing. Gassy, chocolaty, very pungent.

I'm loving the videos! That's some nice looking Hash, have you ever considered doing dry ice hash? I just did it on my GDP grow and I have 0 regrets. Also nice dab rig

@HighTV, Thanks! I appreciate it. I did a bit of dry ice hash on some sub par over dry nugs I got from a guy. I couldn't bear smoking the flower, so that's what I did and it was pretty cool. Nothing above 3-4*, but really tasty and more useful than the flower. I would give it another shot with fresh frozen if I had an appropriate catching surface. Also, got the Dnail for a song at a local shop as the puffco and pens are dominating right now. Totally love it!

Hi @Fullmeltalchemist! You may have some broad-mites / russet-mites, they're almost impossible to see without a microscope. An affected plant will show twisted new growth, blistered and “wet” looking leaves. If this diagnosis is confirmed you should move your container elsewhere so the invasion won't spread on your other plants and treat asap. I'd recommend to spray your babies at night with neem oil mixed with soap and see how it goes after a few days. I'll be around, keep us up-to-date and happy growing 👊
