Auto Candy Bubatz XL - Dutch Passion Grow Competition

RasendeRollo92 Welcome to week 1! A new journey begins. The lady has her first jagged leaves, so for me, growth begins & germination is complete. For the substrate, I used a coconut mix, which I enriched with a little more perlite (it looked pretty sparse). For nutrients, I opted for the MonsterBud mix from Zamnesia (50g for 11 liters of substrate). I mixed it directly into the substrate. The weather is currently rather bad, so it's house arrest for now. By the end of the week, I'll move her to the balcony. Until the next update 👊

RasendeRollo92 Welcome to week 2! My fastest grow this year! The weather is fantastic, the lady is doing wonderfully! She's getting another dose of RootJuice from BioBizz this week. Other than that, there's not much to report so far. I hope everything continues at this pace; then it will be a very good number! I'll keep you updated 🖖👍 Update Day 12: Unfortunately, the lady has to stay inside today. The weather is crazy; it's cold, raining, and windy.

RasendeRollo92 Welcome to week 3! This lady is doing well. Although the leaves all have a little deformation - whether they don't form corners or show slight growths - it makes her all the more unique! The overall growth is really good, and I'm happy with that. Here's to another (hopefully) good week 👊🍀

RasendeRollo92 Welcome to week 4! The lady is really giving it her all. The strange markings that were visible on the first leaf row seem to be a thing of the past - there's nothing to see anymore 😎 Unfortunately, she has to stay indoors a lot right now because it's constantly raining or extremely windy. I think by the end of the week it will calm down again, so she can go out and relax 👊🍀🖖

RasendeRollo92 Welcome to week 5! What a wonderful lady she is! Yesterday, she was dug out of the coconut substrate by the wind, but today she’s back up. Nevertheless, she’s under house arrest for the next few days! Every day it gets cloudy, it rains every other day, and we have wind with a strength of 25-30 km/h or more. I think she’s doing well so far, and I’m looking forward to the flowering! The stretch has already started.

RasendeRollo92 Welcome to week 6! This lady is giving it her all… She’s stretching well, there are many signs of flowering… nonetheless, for me personally, this is another week of growth. Currently, there are no problems, just a few spots here and there on the leaves or something similar… not a big deal. Hope it continues like this 🤞🏽🍀

RasendeRollo92 Welcome to week 7! We've reached the flowering stage. I didn't have much time last week due to a personal incident, but she's doing well so far. The first buds have developed nicely. Even though she's not a giant yet, I think it's going to be a solid run.

RasendeRollo92 Welcome to week 5! The Bubatz is growing… Fertilization continues according to the BioBizz schedule. No signs of deficiencies or anything like that. She also survived the storm of the last two days without any damage.

RasendeRollo92 Welcome to week 9! The Bubatz is growing, what can I say. The temperatures are a bit too high for my taste, reaching up to 42.5 degrees in the sun… but she seems to be handling it well. This should change starting tomorrow, as temperatures of around 20 degrees are expected. There are a few light rust spots here and there… but overall she looks healthy. A smell is slowly developing… but it reminds me more of freshly mowed grass and less of sweets… hope that changes soon 😂😂😂

RasendeRollo92 Welcome to week 10! The buds are getting thicker, the plant is growing, I'm generally happy. I still can't say anything about the smell, but that's on me - unfortunately, I can't smell due to health reasons. But it's supposed to smell ^^ I accidentally discovered that when using coco substrate, more grow nutrients need to be used... I'll adjust the schedule for the next feeding. Other than that, there are no further deficiencies so far.

RasendeRollo92 Welcome to week 11! We're getting a bit sticky! The lady is developing a very sweet smell — I like! Unfortunately, the weather isn't cooperating... it's constantly raining and storming... I'm trying to place her as dry as possible, but I can't avoid a little sprinkle of rain. Hopefully, she'll forgive me 🤞🏽 Here's to another week 👊🍀🖖

RasendeRollo92 Welcome to week 12! The weather is terrible… I think that hits the nail on the head. The sun is completely missing, it rains every 2 hours & one storm warning chases the next — not optimal outdoor conditions. Nevertheless, the Candy Bubatz XL is making progress… she’s getting fatter. I’m considering harvesting her early because of the weather, to avoid risking the harvest… unfortunately, I can't protect her well enough from the rain… but I’ll decide that spontaneously. From now on, she won’t get any nutrients from me, she should feed herself. In plain language: only clear water from now on! I’ll keep you updated 🖖🍀👊

RasendeRollo92 Hey guys! After my upload, I noticed that some spots have turned brown... unfortunately, it was Bud rot -.- I looked and was horrified to find that the entire HeadBud has rotted away from the stem... I've never had that happen before, but there's always a first time for everything. The strain is good, smells great, and is super sticky — just how it should be. More updates will follow after drying and curing... as long as the rest doesn't rot too. Dry weight: 24g
