Let’s start a new round with Red Hot Cookies from Sweet seedS. I use BioBizz light Mix without extra nutrients. Nothing special all seeds directly in the soil. Update 22.11 day 4 of germination All 4 seeds are awaken. 3 already out of the soil and the last one will do it in a few hours. So all seeds in a time window of 24 hours, that’s amazing! I activated the light starting in the evening for 18 hours. 20% light intensity

4 seeds 4 plants. It started very good but the seedlings started to grow a bit too fast in the direction of the light. I supported two of the plants with a bit wire. No nutrients or other special stuff. Plan is to wait till the first 5 leaf appears and than start to transplant all 4 in 14L pots. The waiting Beginns ;)

I decided to wait for the new 14 Liter flowerpots till next week. The lady’s are looking great an normally I just wanted to kill one of the four, because I wanted to grow only three plants. But I could not do it.

New shoes for the ladies. I changed to 14 Liter pot size with BioBizz light living soil. On top I gave 35g Green House Feeding BioGrow. I had it from my last grow and will continue using it. Simple and effektiv.

With the new pots I started todo a bit of light stress training. In the graph you can see when I transplanted the ladies because of the rise in humidity.

Christmas Week and I was a bit stressed and did not a lot for the plants. Today I did a topping including some LST. I also defoliated big fan leaves to get some light on the lower branches. All 4 lady’s are in a very good shape. No extra nutrients. I just changed the water to 80mg CA and 30 MG.

Explosive growth on 3 of 4 plants. One of them is a bit slower, but all 4 are looking great. I had to remove a lot of leaves and some minor branches. Way more than expected. I will also cut a bit of the upper branches, because my tent is not that big and I have a feeling that they will stretch a lot in the first days of flower. Change to 12/12 is scheduled for tomorrow.

First week of flower. No sign of gender yet. I added the new GHF topping for the bloom phase. Additionally I added Top&Heaven to the water, because I had both already on my shelf. A little bit of defoliation and a net for stability in the later weeks.

Week2 of flower and it is possible to see the stretch from day to day. All Phenos are a little bit different. I separated the higher plants on the left side. The given Bio Bloom (I added the maximum g per L) nutrients should work for 8 weeks, that’s totally not happening here. I will change to standard flower phase nutrients.

The Lady’s are in full flower now and GHF nutrients are definitely not enough for 8 weeks. I stare red to add standard organic nutrients from BioBizz. This should fix the deficiency in the next 2 weeks. Nothing more to say. I defoliate a bit but in the end I just can say that I’m surprised by pheno difference. Hope their is also a difference in taste.. :)

The Buds are growing! The two plants with the nutrients deficiency are looking better. At the moment it is very cold outside and I have to constantly open and close the windows. That’s a bit annoying I hoped for standard cold weather.

The first time I checked the trichomes. Most of them clear, some milk like and a few already amber. I’m very exited for the end result. I took the photos in a very dehydrated state before watering. So don’t worry that they look a bit sad, but it will change in the next hours. I think harvest will be in 2 weeks. I like them more on the amber side and will wait till it is like 50/50. No technical stuff done only waiting l… - edit 20.02 Added 5 new macro cola pictures.

The colas are looking amazing. No mold, only really fat buds. Next week is harvest. Looks like I can harvest all plants together. The smell is extremely sweet and in seconds when I open the tent the room is filled. I’m very exited Edit 26.02 4 new trichome photos. Nothing change. The waiting continues

Last week 🎉 I stopped giving any nutrients, all 4 plants getting yellow because of their lifespan. Additional Nutrients would just be a waste. I don’t flush, the theory behind it on living soil does not make sense to me. My own tests on the same strain end up that I could not find any difference in taste. In the coming days I will defoliate all fan leaves I can reach. Today I also opened up every single cola in search of mold. All green and juicy!

Harvest Week. I checked the trichomes and they are mostly 80/20 milk/amber. Some more some less… The light will be deactivated tomorrow. Timeline is: - Tuesday 12pm light off - Wednesday rest - Thursday Morning Defoliation - Thursday 12pm cut down Why Thursday? Only day in the week where the house will be empty. We had a few days warm weather in Germany and this will change in the next days. Conditions will be around 16-18 degrees with 40% RH.

That was a very smooth run… Just a few nutrient deficiency’s in the early flower. 4 phenos…. 2 very similar and the other 2 quiet different. I hope they all have different tastes and flavours. At the moment I only can they that they are smelling so incredibly sweet and strong. OMG :) Weights are the following: 1. 434g - the small greener one (front left) 2. 462g - the bigger more greener one (behind left) 3. 473g - the red from front right 4. 529g - the red from behind right Dry Weights after Trimming 1. 60g 2. 66g 3. 77g 4. 86g I had not the time to do a short photo session, but I will do it next week. Smoke Review will come in about two weeks

After 48 hours of darkness I opened the tent and defoliated all good reachable fan leaves. Short weight session and a few pictures and some tent cleaning. Light and some ventilators taken out of the tent. I hanged the full plant into the tent. The room has RH of 40% and 18 degrees.
