My First Outdoor Grow with Dutch Passion Growing Competition 2025. Week 0

1/3

cheech87 Even though it will be an outdoor grow, I will start the plants indoors until they are strong enough. I'm sure I will enjoy this grow since it's my first time outdoors. I'm excited to see what new experiences I'll have; it's a completely different environment with new challenges. Still, I see it positively because the sun is the best light for plants, after all. I hope the weather cooperates! I'm particularly excited about this genetic variety: Auto Candy Bubatz XL from Dutch Passion. This autoflower has been specifically bred for high yields and strong effects. It comes from a mix of modern, potent genetics with a focus on size, yield, and aroma. The flowering time is about 10-12 weeks from germination, and it can produce very large plants with thick buds under optimal conditions—ideal for outdoor grows! The THC content is high, and the effect is strongly relaxing with a creative touch. The aroma is sweet, slightly fruity, and typically Candy Bubatz. I'm really looking forward to this grow and will do my best to bring out the full potential of this genetic variety!

cheech87 So far, everything is going well, just one didn't make it. They'll stay indoors for another week or two, then it's off to the outdoors. Let's see how far I actually get, but I'm already really looking forward to this experience.

cheech87 Also, so far everything is fine. One plant is outside, the other is still inside since it's developing a bit slower. But I think they'll really take off soon, let's see what happens.

cheech87 So, this is my first outdoor grow and yeah, I already had my first experiences with natural wind damage 😅 It was pretty windy over the weekend, and it actually cost my plant its top. Well, it is what it is. Let's see what else comes of it, but to be honest, I'm not expecting too much anymore.

cheech87 It seems like something is still happening here, even though it was almost completely topped, so not exactly the best conditions on my balcony. Maybe two hours of full sun, the rest is more shady. Still, it seems to be growing. Let's see what comes of it. I only move it aside sometimes when it rains too heavily or the wind is too strong; otherwise, I leave it alone.

My First Outdoor Grow with Dutch Passion Growing Competition 2025. Week 9

1/2

cheech87 This plant has been flattened by the wind several times, but it didn't bother me; I wanted to keep it small anyway. It's really resilient, hard to take down. The smell is already quite intense; I love this spicy-sweet aroma, and it hasn't even started to flower yet. I'm starting to find that a bit strange. It should actually be an autoflowering, but it's already over 8 weeks old and showing no signs of flowering.

My First Outdoor Grow with Dutch Passion Growing Competition 2025. Week 10

1/3

cheech87 So, as I said, 10 weeks. For me, she's acting a bit strange for an autoflowering. We should actually be fully in the flowering stage by now, but there's nothing to see here yet. Anyway, now she's just my balcony plant. But she should also start blooming like a normal photoperiod plant. Maybe it's due to too much light disturbance, but a normal autoflowering should have shown something by now.
