Hello everybody, i finally decide to share the last diary of the fourth plant in my tent. This seed is one of the oldest that i had but i did not have problems with germination, she needed only three days to transplant. 💪
How i did for the last Pineapple, i used the starter mix that is inside the @BioTabs seedplugs. This starter contain a mix of Bactrex, Mycotrex and a very valuable variety of algae. I mixed all the product in 0.5 L of water and i gave it to her in the plug,
I use the Biobizz Lightmix how substrate mixing with perlite and vermiculite and i add at the base of the vase expanded clay. I prepared the soil in the vase watering it a couple of days before the transplant with Bioenhancher (0.5g/L) and the remaining part of Starter Mix not used for the seedling.
Hello mates, this new journey began. This time I couldn't wait the standard time after germination to feed her because by 18/10 I will have to send it into bloom.
At the first day of the week I added to the substrate BioGrow by Greeen House Feeding with top-dressing technique, I used only 2g/L of soil because the lightmix is prefertilized.
I didn't add BioEnhancer this time because a few days before i used it.
I did watering twice in this week:
- 0.5 L water+ pH-down 4 drops/L
pH 5.8 - ppm: 169 - EC: 0.3 ms/cm - T: 23.4°C
- 1 L water+ pH-down 4 drops/L
pH 5.8 - ppm: 169 - EC: 0.3 ms/cm - T: 23.4°C
Hello to everybody, here the second week of vegetation.
The plant was strong enought to make the topping but i waited the last days of the week to be ensure. The same day of topping i feeded with BioEnhancer, increasing the amount to 1 g/L, to strengthen the plant's defenses.
The dark green colour of the plant let me be more confident about her health, we will see the next week how'll goin on.
In this week i did watering at the same day that i did the topping.
1 L water + bioEnhancer 1g/L + pH-down 7 drops/L
pH: 6.25 - ppm: 230 - EC: 0.46 ms/cm - T: 23.4°C
Hello to everybody, here the third and the last week of vegetation.
She's growing so fast above all after the light LST that i'm doing with the help of the bigger lower leaves.
She is a little bastard bush so i don't think that she'll reach the high of the other plants in the tent, furtunally the light setup allow me to have more or less the rigth distance for her and the Pineapple.
I did watering three times this week, increasing the amount:
1 L water + pH-down 3 drops/L (x3)
pH 6.0 - ppm: 169 - EC: 0.3 ms/cm - T: 23.4°C
Hello to everybody, finally it's time to make some flowers. 💪
At the beginnig of the week i did some training, i did a little defoliation of the lower part of the plant to stimulate her vertical growth because she is the lowest of the tent. The aspect of the plant is perfect, she are growing so healthy, the branches are really dense like a typical indica and they are organizing without my training this time, i love her shape :)
I hope that she continue in this way until the end.
The first day of the week i feeded the plant with BioBloom of Green House Feeding, i gave 3g/L of substrate with top-dressing techinque. That's not a big amount of nutrients for one application in all the flowering cycle but i use those for the first time so i prefer not to overdo it.
On the same day I also added the BioEnhancer (1 g/L) to the water. I did watering three times this week:
- 1 L water + BioEnhancer 1 g/L + pH-down 8 drops/L
pH 6.2 - ppm: 230 - EC: 0.46 ms/cm - T: 23.4°C
- 1 L water + pH-down 3 drops/L
pH 6.0 - ppm: 169 - EC: 0.3 ms/cm - T: 23.4°C
-1.5 L water + pH-down 3 drops/L
pH 6.0 - ppm: 169 - EC: 0.3 ms/cm - T: 23.4°C
Hello to everybody, here the second week of flowering.
She had a good vertical growth respect the past week so i tried to train her top branches a little to let the light reach the lower part . She reacted very well and fast in fact at the end of the week i did also the lollipopping in the lower part of the plant.
I want to bring attention to the branch in the photos, it have a particular condition that came out every time with this strain, the fasciation. This condition could caused by different condition not linked with the genetic of the plant but from a statistic point of view it is very strange that 4 seeds out of 4 manifested this condition. Three Purple Punch are in one of my old diaries so other condition of cultivation but same results, at least one branch per plant with fasciation. Let me know what you think about this if you want :)
I did watering three times:
- 1 L water + pH-down 3 drops/L (x2)
-1.5 L water + pH-down 3 drops/L (x1)
pH 6.0 - ppm: 169 - EC: 0.3 ms/cm - T: 23.4°C
Hello to everybody, here the third week of flowering.
Finally the plant is almost reaching the net but the most important thing the buds strarting to get bigger and scented.
The aspect of the plant is very healty and the growth is costant without issue of any kind. In the 'strange' branch the flower is beginning to show the evident sign of fasciation.
I did watering four times, the first of the week i feeded with also BioEnhancer:
-1.5 L water+ bioEnhancer 1g/L + 8 drops/L pH-down
pH: 6.2 - ppm: 230 - EC: 0.46 ms/cm - T: 23.4°C
-1.5 L water + pH-down 3 drops/L (x1)
pH 6.0 - ppm: 169 - EC: 0.3 ms/cm - T: 23.4°C
-2 L water + pH-down 3 drops/L (x2)
pH 6.0 - ppm: 169 - EC: 0.3 ms/cm - T: 23.4°C
Hello to everybody, here the fourth week of flowering.
Finally the little one has reached the net, i know that i should put the net more down but unfortunately the different high of the others plants didn't allow me to do.
Actually, despite the genetic suggest us that she should have changed the colour, she showed the first purple colour in the centre of the buds but not as intense.
I always hoped that at least one purple punch would totally change the colour but it never happend, maybe this time?? 🙏
I did watering three times:
-2 L water + pH-down 3 gocce/L (x3)
pH 6.0 - ppm: 169 - EC: 0.3 ms/cm - T: 23.4°C
Hello to everybody, here the fifth week of flowering.
The first day of the week I did a little defoliation on the down-side part of the plant. During this week the buds swelled a lot and the colour became more intense.
I did watering four times:
-1 L water + pH-down 3 gocce/L
pH 6.0 - ppm: 169 - EC: 0.3 ms/cm - T: 23.4°C
-2 L water + pH-down 3 gocce/L (x3)
pH 6.0 - ppm: 169 - EC: 0.3 ms/cm - T: 23.4°C
Hello to everybody, here the sixth week of flowering.
During the past week i noticed that the pH's solution was a bit low. So i started this week rising up the pH's solution until to 6.5, i did this because i noticed that the buds didn't swell how i expected.
I'm very satisfied about the plant and her journey until now but i always want to reach the better result, the next growth cycle i'll try to maintain a better pH of the solution during all the cycle.
All the buds have a great aspect and an incredible odor, in particular the bud with the fasciation. Unfortunately also this time the plant don't change totally the colour but in the innermost part the buds have the purple colour.
I did watering four times, the first of the week with BioEnhancer:
- 2 L water + bioEnhancer 1g/L + pH-down 5 drops/L
pH 6.5 - ppm: 206- EC: 0.4 ms/cm - T: 21°C
-2 L water + pH-down 2 drops/L (x3)
pH 6.5 - ppm: 169 - EC: 0.3 ms/cm - T: 21°C
Hello to everybody, we were at the end.
At the beginnig of the week i was not sure enougth about the maturation of the trichomes so i feeded her with Bioenhancer. I hope this don't compromise too much the taste of the flowers.
Another beautiful esperience with this strain, unfortunally no one times change totally the colour but the violet inside the buds is very nice. Like the other times that i did this strain, she showed at least one branch with fasciation.
The 05/12 i checked the trichomes of all the plants inside the tent, I looked at the same time the buds at the top, in the middle and at the low part of the plant . She showed this concentrations of trichomes:
Lactiginous 65%
Trasparent 25%
Amber 10%
The 9th or the 10th of dicember I'll do the harvest. That is the reason because i put inside this week olso the photos of the 06/12 first day of the 8th week.
I did watering four times, the first of the week with BioEnhancer:
- 2 L water + bioEnhancer 1g/L + pH-down 5 drops/L
pH 6.5 - ppm: 206- EC: 0.4 ms/cm - T: 21°C
-2 L water + pH-down 2 drops/L (x3)
pH 6.5 - ppm: 169 - EC: 0.3 ms/cm - T: 21°C
Interesting strain, very resilient and quite easy to grow. The particular trait was that every time i growth it i found at least one branch per plant with fasciation so evidentement this is a propriety of this strain and it is amazing!
I really reccommend this strain for who love the strong couch effect and likes the strong tastes
Hello to everybody, the big day is here. On 10th december i did the harvest, a very looong day but so satisfying.
I'm very satisfy about the journey of this plant, It was so healty, productive and very resinous.
The only thing i could have done more was pruning more the lower part of the plant.
The 10/12 started the drying stage and after 10 days i'll put to cure all the buds.
