Euphoria CBD RQS Outdoor

India_Calcoen My seedlings are stretching to the light. The Romberg LED lighting does not provide enough light. The LED strip provides 1300 lux and I read on the RQS website: “Cannabis seedlings like to receive around 16 hours of light per day at an intensity of 375 lumens and 4000 lux.” https://www.royalqueenseeds.com/blog-how-to-deal-with-tall-stretchy-cannabis-seedlings-n777 😕 I should find them a better place to grow… 01-05-2025 I added extra lighting to my propagator. 1 meter LED-light strip (Leixy Appel), 1000 lumen. Unfortunately the temperature rised up to 35 degrees with this strip! I switched it off. I think I will have to move the seedlings out of the propagator, onto a sunny windowsill.

India_Calcoen 9-05-2025 Replanted the plants in larger biodegradable pots, added potting soil and placed them on a windowsill facing the south.

India_Calcoen 26-05-2025 I forgot to measure my plants last week, but it seems they have gained some leaves and some height! I’m waiting for the weather to be warmer to put them outside. 31-05-2025 I put the plants in the garden, between some basil and Tagetes. Three weeks ago I added green Culterra (N10-P4-K6) to my soil. I hope the soil absorbed it and my plants can benefit from it. Today I added some potting soil in the hole I dug.

India_Calcoen 4-06-2025 The plants are growing fine. No special remarks.

India_Calcoen 15-06-2025 Euphoria CBD is doing fine. I didn’t have to water her, because it rained this week. She grew a few centimetres. Nothing special.

India_Calcoen 21-06-2025 It’s the longest day of the year! From now on the days will get shorter. My plants are growing fine. I planted Tagetes and basil next to my cannabis plant and the slugs and snails are eating those. They are leaving my cannabis alone, yay!

India_Calcoen 30-06-2025 I really like the fact that my plant is growing so fast! And the leaves are nice and green. The plant looks healthy. I think I prefer how the photoperiodic plants grow, especially as a beginner. My auto’s never reached more than 22 cm.

India_Calcoen 08-07-2025 Growing steady. It rained a lot the last few days. I think my plant benefited from the rain.

India_Calcoen 15-07-2025 Euphoria CBD is growing steady. She was a bit lime green so I added some Thomas slag (8% Fosfor, 15% Potassium, 6% Magnesium, 21% Calcium en 8% Sulphur) three days ago. I’m not sure but she looks a bit darker green.

India_Calcoen 23-07-2025 Euphoria CBD is growing steady. Nothing special.

India_Calcoen 1-08-2025 Euphoria CBD is doing fine, she reached 1 metre today! Pre-flowering has started. I fed her some Plagron Alga Grow last week for the first time. I don’t know if she has enough nutrients but she is looking fine.

India_Calcoen 06-08-2025 I’m giving Euphoria CBD once, sometimes twice a week Plagron Alga Grow (4ml/l). Today I removed some yellow leaves and cut a bit of the Tagetes and the basil next to her. I want her to have enough space, air and light.

India_Calcoen 17-08-2025 I started this week with Plagron Alga Bloom. I think I saw some pre-flowering. Euphoria CBD looks bushy with a lot of side branches. Black Runtz that grows next to it, grows like a tall tower.

India_Calcoen 20-08-2025 Euphoria CBD is doing fine. She drinks a lot! She is also getting a lot of side branches and leaves. I wonder if I should defoliate her and when I should do that… 🧐I don’t want her to get mouldy in October.

India_Calcoen 27-08-2025 Euphoria CBD is growing fine, no special remarks. She is really dense and bushy. I’m still wondering of I should defoliate her. I hope she will be fine during the next few rainy days.

India_Calcoen 04-09-2025 Euphoria CBD started flowering. I see white hairs emerging

India_Calcoen 11-09-2025 Euphoria CBD also reached 168 centimetres, my height! She has a lot of side branches and the foliage is very dense. I hope she will dry after rain. This morning I shaked the water of her branches. I’m really afraid she gets affected by mould. I decided not to defoliate her. I’m afraid that cutting her, damaging her, makes her more susceptible for mould.

India_Calcoen 18-09-2025 Euphoria CBD is really beautiful 😍 Every time I see her I feel happy inside. She reached 171 centimetres. Her buds are developing nicely.

India_Calcoen 26-09-2025 Euphoria CBD is looking like a Christmas tree 🎄 full of presents 🎁. I keep watering and feeding her. I didn’t see any pests and plagues. It seems that these photoperiodic plants planted directly in soil are far more sturdy and can withstand more bugs and fungus than the autoflowers. I hope it stays this way. She still needs quite some weeks of blooming to finish.

India_Calcoen 1-10-2025 The buds are still small. I think she needs a few more weeks. Everything is going fine. She is growing. I’m still watering and feeding her.

India_Calcoen 16-10-2025I haven’t checked on Euphoria CBD for over a week because I went on a vacation. When I came back she was quite dry and I watered her with plain water. I hope she is reaching maturity soon. Her pistils are mainly orange. Unfortunately I had to cut off a bud with bud rot. On Monday heavy rains will start. I think I should harvest her before that. I’m still doubting if she is mature enough, but I don’t want to lose everything…

India_Calcoen 22-10-2025 Some pictures right before harvesting Euphoria CBD. I had to hurry up because the mould was getting to her very fast. I had to throw out some buds of the lower branches of the plant.

India_Calcoen My feathery friends came to check on me and my plants while I was harvesting and washing my harvest. 🦃❤️ I washed everything with a mixture of lemon juice and natriumbicarbonate and rinsed it with two buckets of clean water. Hung it to dry in a room with a dehumidifier and a ventilator.
