Pineapple Chunk + Critical Kush | 2024

first week of growing they're gonna get transplanted into small DWCs – bonsais for experimental box are going to remain in them until harvest, main box plants are going to be transplanted to main RDWC as soon as I harvest Glookies I am growing currently 😊 ———- end of the week update: plants were transferred to diy dwc buckets 🤙🏻 I’ve already had a great success with them 😈

Pineapple chunks are all just okay, no pH/EC adjustments needed so far 😊 Critical Kush is way more vigorous, interesting development so far, I can't wait to torture it 😈

so far so good, no highlights 😊

new week brought us to moving experimental plants into the experimental growbox – experimental is Critical Kush + one Pineapple chunk; I am going to do bonsais out of 'em 😈 ---- main plants are still waiting for moving into the main box due to drying of previous harvest

all plants were topped for the first time and main-lining process began 😈 experimental growbox: – Critical Kush + Pineapple Chunk – aiming at 8 colas on each plant main growbox: – 2x Pineapple Chunk – aiming at 16-24 colas on each plant

main box: – strange pH swings, roots are absolutely healthy – I am lowering EC, maybe it's too high for them right now experimental box: – topped for the second time, I am switching it to flowering next week

main growbox – the left plant is a bit delayed but nothing significant – both plants went through some minor pH issues and following nute deficiencies – all seems solved for now – I believe I am topping both of them for the last time at the end of the week – I am just waiting for more nodes to grow on each branch experimental growbox [flowering week 1] – this is first week in flowering – I am dosing 60 % of pre-flower schedule – first defoliation happened and also one node of new side-branches was removed

main growbox [vegetative] – straight at the beginning of the week both plants were topped for the last time and therefore my main-line base is done – I estimate two more weeks in vegetative stage and then switching to flowering experimental growbox [flowering week 2] – plants went through drastic defoliation and they loved it! (and in case they didn't that's why they're in the experimental growbox 😃)

main growbox – base is almost ready, it just needs to be spread wider a bit more – managed to rip off one branch of the right plant 😐 – plants are super-healthy and eager to grow – roots are insane experimental growbox [flowering week 3] – flowering week 3 – budlets are forming nicely – had to defoliate a bit to expose botom nodes

main growbox – girls are ready to be switched to flowering next week – towards end of the week another defoliation is happening experimental growbox [flowering week 4] – major defoliation done – buds are fattening like crazy – both pH and EC have not been checked nor adjusted since planting them and so far no issues whatsoever

main growbox [flowering week 1] – just swtiched to 12/12 – plants are super healthy – rootballs are gigantic and super healthy experimental growbox [flowering week 5] – wow, just look at those buds! – critical kush is so far better performer than pineapple chunk – that smell of pineapple chunk is becoming interestingly irresistible

main growbox [flowering week 2] – plants are stretching nicely – had to increase feeding from 65 % of the TA schedule to 70 % in order to avoid possible deficiencies, there were signs experimental growbox [flowering week 6] – thos buds are just great, nothing else to add here.
