Germinated in a cup of water, plated in GROW ALL-MIX PERLITE by frux in a 12l pot. Watered about 0.5l every time the soil was dry. Dimmed the light to about 400-500ppfd.

Over 30°C today outside, temp in the tent rose to 27-28°C, hopefully it's getting a bit colder soon... One of the leaves of the quick one looks funky, growing a leaf on top of the leaf? I'm not sure whats happening here :D

Looks like they are growing nicely. My Quick One grows very wild and very quick. I'm thinking about lolipopping or even some LST? But at the same time, since it's my first grow, I kinda just want to let them grow as they want to, and see what happens. Maybe that's not the most efficient way to get the most out of them, but I think that's the best way to learn and observe how the plants behave and grow within my setup, so I can adapt better for the next grow. What do you guys think? The Apple Fritter looks sooooo good, nice and even canopy, I'm so happy how she is doing. Any suggestions and tips are super welcomed, I'm still learning! Have a nice weekend!

they grew a lot in the last week. Had to switch the fan on and off a lot, couldn't get a stable humidity in the tent. Weather outside was also very unstable, didn't help either regulate the climate in my flat.. I'm thinking about buying a new vent/ filter combo soon, since they are starting to smell a lot more now.

Day 28: Not really week 5, but in the last 2 days they started to bloom and I wanted to share the Pics :) Gave both Plants 50g of fertilizer, since it's mostly an Organic fertilizer I was probably a bit to late and it wont help much. If you are interested in what i used, its a Universal Garden-fertilizer in small pellets from Solabiol, nothing fancy, let's see if it helps or if I ruined my plats :D Opinions on it are appreciated! Day 32 Update: The weather this week is nasty, ~20°C and ~70% humidity. It was difficult to keep the climate in the tent under control, especially the humidity. Loud AF exhaust fan + axial fan are running 24/7 now. Let's hope for the best Day 35 Update: So week 5. They stretched a little in the last couple of days. The Quick One has 46cm and the Apple Fritter 54cm. Looking good!

Lots of rain this week, so lots of high humidity.... had to put in another fan to keep it under 60%. Other than that, nothing special happened. They stretched nicely and put on some flowers. So far, I'm realy happy with how my first grow is turning out :)

Nice she is showing good bio chemistry within the leaves, senescence is the process of the plant beginning its "death spiral" so to speak. The reallocation of nutrients within a plant's leaves. Some nutrients are mobile some are not. Nitrogen is mobile meaning once nitrogen runs low the plant will start to cannibalize the mobile nitrogen where it is needed elsewhere for more critical bud development. Chloryphyll itself is composed of nitrogen with a magnesium core. This is the yellowing you see. As chloryphyll is removed the other pigmentation remain, this will show through as purples (anthocyanin) or red/orange (cartenoids). It is a sig of a healthy grow done well. Good job. Cold night temps should help if you choose to bring out more purples, but don't push it wait till you are deep into ripening then slam it low see what happens. Good luck.

It's getting there! Maybe a week or two for the Quick One, and 2-3 weeks for the Apple Fritter. They are starting to show some deficiencies, but I won't bother adding any more fertilizer. But I will look into the whole fertilizing process for my next grow, so far I'm really, really happy how they are doing so far :) Smell is getting strong, had to buy a carbon filter, so I won't bother my neighbors 😅

09.10 Mid Week Trichomes Update. I'm thinking about chopping the Quick One on Friday. Trichomes are mostly cloudy, some amber and still a few clear, hope they start to get milky by friday.

First one done, I'm really happy how she turned out. Roots looking well, I think I will stick with the soil from Frux, really happy with it! Will give update on smell and taste, in about 2 weeks when she is dry.

She's finally ready. Going to chop her on Sunday. Unfortunately, I burned her leafs a bit, by putting my auxiliary light to close. Plus, I defoliated her a bit to much and I think at the wrong time. Nevertheless, I think she took my beginner-mistakes like a champ :D She smells sweet AF, almost like sour apple candy. Way more appealing than the Quick One. Really exited for her!
