Day 0. New start. Sponsored grow.
ALL NUTRITIONS ARE GRAMS TO LITRES !!!! Neutralise is in real measurement only.
Soil was mixed two weeks ago !!! That line needs cooling time, have in mind !!!
Main sponsor of this grow is Mars Hydro. They sent me new light again, this time i will try out TSL 2000 model. First impression : easy to assemble, but i would create longer screws and put spacers , that way would ventilate better than now its bolted straight to board.
MSNL send me 5 strains to try out, first to plant was Tropicana Cookies Purple Autoflower, just check breeders photos and you will know WHY ;)))) Hope i will be close ;) Went for two "funky colours" strains this time, left myself a chance to have some harvest ;))) i always fail with them ;))))))
Day 4. Girl sprouted on forth day, lets GO !!!
Day 5. Made a video, all runs smooth, a bit lanky, needed to put lights on on 3rd, not 4th day ;))) saving electricity not always pays off ;)
Happy Growing !!!
Day 9. All is running very nice. Happy with light performace a lot.
Girls missed wind a bit, but i cant make it faster, because of neighbours and sound, so i took humidity dome away.
TSL2000 runs 40 cm away and on 40% output.
Girls get daily shower , try to keep some wet cloth to maintain humidity.
Happy Growing !!!
Day 15 since seed touched soil. All is going amazing.
Yesterday topped them up a bit. Stems looks lanky, would expect stronger by now, but generally girls fly ! Off course i watered them straight after goodies were rubbed into top soil.
Great White - 4 g sprinkled around for each plant
BioSys same amount.
Ecothrive Bio Blend - 200 grams added to each pot.
Cookie is racing Devil for the win ;) my back up plan is the only slow runner ;))) That's my luck this summer in EVERYTHING ;)))))
Lights are still on 40%, Mars as always has great products for growers.
Think this week i will start some training.
Day 19. Yesterday girl got 800 ml oh 6.3 phed water. She tries to win this grow, very nice girl, not giving up and chasing Devil for biggest girl of this grow award ;))) Think to start training her tomorrow.
Day 20. First LST. Watering straight after, plus Biobizz Leaf Coat shower. Approx 2.5 liters went in, first big saturation.
Happy Growing !!!
Day 23 from seed touching soil. Happy B for my main sponsor, one more time - Thank You for great lights, TSL2000 including ;))) girls just fly under her !!!

Cookie grows fantastically, did second wave of LST, this time prepared pot with cotton line net. Put all branches up, tucked leaves under shoots, now most of plant get light, soon side branches will have wires and will be given direction were to grow, to occupy most of space.
Only Leaf Coat will be used once, all waterings pure 6.3 ph water.
Day 25. She grows very fast !
Day 27. Did second big wave of LST, watered straight after.
When i do LST, I try to preplan where which branch will go, top will always stretch and will create new, so target first 4-5 sets drag to oposite side , than your top will be tied and directed to.
Do it with plants only before watering, aka least crusty, least chance to damage. Expose all small branches up, tuck leaves, girls lost from one to 3 max, only because overcrowded and some touched soil heavily.
Happy Growing !!!
Day 29 from seed touching soil. They flowering !!!!!
Mars Hydro having birthday, so 14% off for everyone, have a look :

Light works well, thinking to increase output to 60% in few days, when this LST wave will need new one ;))
Cookie grows well, very racing Devil for win, tied few more branches.
Will update during the week.
Day 30. Planing to top them up in few days with next watering. Daily leaf tucking, twice a day wet towel hanging for better humidity and twice light shower of 6.3 ph water.
Day 33. Mid grow top up

Day 36 from seed touching soil. Cookie still racing Devil for a win. All girls started to smell strong.
Development is nice, Mars TSL2000 making wonderfull job. Light is on 75% output.
Watered today , 3.2 liters of 6.3 phed dechlorinated water went in.
Thought to instal scrog, but its hard to reach anything even now, plus lifting pots becomes a problem. So will do heavy clearing next week or at the end of this one.
Day 39. Girls got heavy training. Looks sad, they were ready to sleep, i did it very late in the day and watered next morning.
Happy Growing !!!
Day 43. Light is on max output, heat enormous and they RUN !!!! thought intensity will stop them a bit , but i think i do only worse ... We have +30 heatwave in UK, i live in attic , so for 4 more days everything will be out of control.
Watered today. 6.3 phed water.
I love simple and affordable Mars Hydro products, if you can cope with heat TSL2000 can do magic in your tent !
Will update after heat wave us over. Should be in 4 days back to +20 ;)))
Day 45. They GROW !!!! Distance is insanly small, but i have 30 cm of space left, wont move light for a week, then i will try to have 20 cm at least again.
Planing last top up, need two more waterings before it, so it should be on last day of this or first of next week.
Thinking to take down all LST at that time, need pots to breath better, too thin fabric, they dont keep form.
Day 47. Drink every two days !!! 4 liters goes to nothing !!! Huge, still streching, tops almost rubbing TS2000, heat 30 inside, humidity 65-68 ..... will need heavy clearing again !!! Most stacked Cookie i ever grew, fills in very nice !!!
Happy Growing !!!!
Day 50 since seed touched soil. They overgrew everything !!! Cookie is nuts, so stacked, always happy, leaves are on healthy part, but could eat more ;))))) . I think i was late with top up, they developed fast and used a lot. I check run off for ppm, but thought 800 still ok, it was not. So big last top up !!!
ALL NUTRITIONS ARE GRAMS TO POT LITRES !!!! Neutralise is in real measurement only.
Great White - 3 g each pot
Biosys - 3g each pot
Charge - 30 g each pot
Life-Cycle - 60 g each pot

Watered straight after, 3.5 liters went in.
Some girls are almost brushing Mars Hydro TSL2000 and i see no issues if air is moved and temp with humidity allows it. Great light, plants grow very well, too well ;)))) will do new clearing after two waterings, want girls to eat first, make bigger roots, then i will resize again to concentrate more on tops.
MARS HYDRO TSL2000: 300W, Flower 2'x4', Veg 3'x5'
It's recommended for beginners.
Low-budget & high-efficiency.
Took down first time ever LST while still growing. Needed space of pot, for last top up and i think they will breath better without, branches are stiff, i would add silica to feed at such time, to stiff them, but i go with one line only, just full beans ;)))
Happy growing !!!
Day 58 since seed touched soil.
Sponsored grow
MARS HYDRO TSL2000: 300W, Flower 2'x4', Veg 3'x5'
It's recommended for beginners.
Low-budget & high-efficiency.
Think its more than for beginners ;)))
Plants coped well with small distance, stretch is over, flowers start to bulk up, some buds will be really nice.
Today raised light to max, so now they have 15 cm quile healthy distance ;)))
Last top up was too powerful with Nitrogen, i see signs of overdose.
Cookie escaped best, so for some strains this feeding is right, most probably its a heavy hungry strain ;))) AND !!!!! Its first Cookie variation that i grew which is so stacked !!!! Each top is long as f@ck ;)))) doubt will be fat tho, structure of flower doesn't give big hope, but its auto, so could still develop into something insanly nice !!!
Took few bottom shoots, taking almost daily few bottom consumed / cannibalised leaves , but she needs a bit more of clearing.
Day 60. Did some clearing.
Happy Growing !!!
Day 64 since seed touched soil. Cookie is real surprise, still packing, colas long but stacked nice, on natural light she is starting to spark too !!!
Girl got 7-8 liters in, all run off collected, that should last for 5 days holidays.
Day 69. They survived !!! All good, lasted 5 days and 12 hours. Big pots pay off sometimes ;)))
This grow is sponsored by Mars Hydro, i test TSL 2000 and it works amazingly, guess ill have my 10 ounce target easy.
Happy Growing !!!
Day 73 since seed touched soil.
How amazing she smells, wrote even to MSNL acc, both strains will be GOD's FOOD , i can guarantee it now. Waved/shook few tops to understand how heavy they are and later hands were full of lemony stink, hard to describe, but really tropical gassy ;)))
This grow is strange, Cookie now lacks feeding a lot, pales quickly , i see sighns of finishing already, but by bud look and structure - my guess is that she still has 3 weeks to go.
Mars Hydro TSL2000 is giving her all power she needs, hopefully those colas will fatten up !
Happy Growing !!!
Day 79 since seed touched soil. Great strain, but i am confused. All sativa dominant usually runs longer, here breeder gives very short 7 weeks flowering period. Think she needs maybe even 3 weeks, will try to push 10-14 days , or chop in a week ;)))
Mars Hydro TSL2000 is doing great job, colas fill in, buds are sparkling, i am happy ;)))
Temps in grow room again off, 26-30 during day, neighbors dont have therapy room, so put heating on ;))))
Day 83. Made video about last watering, tried to show great light, but no space at all, girls too tall for setup. 4 days left and i chop everything.
Happy Growing !!!
MSNL - Tropicana Cookies Purple Autoflower
Day 85 since seed touched soil.
She stinks !!! A bit heavy too ;)))
Will update in few days !
Day 95. She missed good few weeks in my mind, most airy eventually, but very strong weed, really strong, you search for pillow very quick ;))) not a day stuff.
Classic old taste, could feel light cookies undertones, but more tropical, citrus taste and heavy earthiness and weediness ;)))
I am bad in describing ;)
Plant could be more compact, was lolipoped and trimmed a lot, so with scrog result would be better. Heat wave influenced grow a lot !
Smelled fresh better than after 3 weeks of curing. Bottom buds beeing airy are still sticky and potent .
@Metatronix, last friend will get his free setup in february ;) that platform is nice ;) i would keep sp3000 , but i gave both away ;) fc series they never offered, think its best for now ...
@AsNoriu, Hard choices man! You can grow cannabis any time, family on the other hand will not be there forever...and who knows if in the next couple of months the lockdowns will not come back with more travel restrictions.
@@Masterblaster90, nah, more optical illusion, but they are long ;))))
No proper air movement made branches weaker and buds smaller, still very interesting strain. Rare sativa dominant.
@Metatronix, i told you, by taste and bud quality FB leading auto market, but i never had even 150g plant from them, despite making 200 easy from most others, some went 250+ , all in soil ....
@Metatronix, nah , but thanks, i had huge hopes, BUT :
Heat made them strech and strugle, that brought small distance to light and other issues.
New line is still a mystery, cookie hungry, bomb overfed, devil went into toxicity almost.
Still hope to make 300g from this run, i have like 15g left and a bit of Duck, which i didnt liked at all ...
Think 3 more weeks till chop, then inside i grow only photos, fact. No promos will make me think different ;))))))
Wow buddy!! super nice buds
What an amazing grow so far - good job and well done 🤝
Happy Growing & cant wait for your upcoming weeks 🌱
Cheers, Bud Boutique 👩🌾
@Crashoverite, thanks ! Still dont know were she will go ... sometimes think will stay airy, sometimes i see them filling up .... few weeks will show !
Happy to see another successful grow and diary on your part brother 💪✂️🎉 I need to update my Tropicanna harvest as I'm almost out of that delicious Tropicanna bud 😅
@Metatronix, mine is strong ;))))) heavy strong :) in my eyes should go longer, from all experience - sativa goes longer, breader states different ;))) still great result !
AsNoriu
