(Dutch Passion Contest) Orange Bud 2.0

Brujha77 So, today (Day 8) the 3 ladies were repotted into 2.5L pots. As always, a bit of GreatWhite was added to the planting hole. 0.6 vpd 350 ppfd 21 dli Day 12 Today they received fertilizer for the first time.

Brujha77 Beginning of week 2. Since it’s getting a bit cold at night again, the 3 are on a heating mat at a cozy 21°C to avoid cold feet.. They are currently being watered every 2-3 days (EC 1.5 PH 6.3). VPD 0.7 PPFD 390 DLI 22 Number 1 is slowly catching up. Unfortunately, I got a bit of water on a leaf while watering Number 3 and didn’t notice it.... (unfortunately a bit burnt). It could look a bit better overall, but let’s wait and see 🍀🍀 Day 19 Watering has been done again. Otherwise, not much is happening, but the ladies are growing 🍀 EC 1.7 PH 6.3 VPD 0.8 PPFD about 400 DLI 22

Brujha77 Day 21 The 3 were repotted today into their final pots (15l AutoPot). Pump etc. is still all off. I think they will get 1-2 weeks. Day 25 The AirDome's have been running since today whenever the light is on. Unfortunately, slight problems. #3 has been growing quite poorly since the repotting... #2 is getting yellow tips on the new shoots and I don't know what it could be... Watering is with 1.7 EC and pH 6.3 (last time I went to 6.5 pH, let's see if it helps). Drain is at 1.4 EC, which would actually mean I could go higher with the nutrients. But it doesn't look like underfeeding to me 🤔🤔😔 #1 the latecomer is doing the best right now 👍

Brujha77 Beginning week 4. The ladies were topped today. 1 and 3 above the 2nd node. Number 2 above the 3rd node. I'm up to 0.5ml/l with the CalMag. Seems to be getting better regarding the yellowing. As of today, the AutoPots are also running. 1 and 2 have also completed LST for the first time. Day 31 Unfortunately still having issues with #2 and #3. Both were flushed today and I set the tank to an EC of 1.31. pH is at 6.23. Fingers crossed...

Brujha77 It's slowly getting better with #2 and #3. At least the new shoots/leaves are no longer turning yellow. I really don't like the two of them.... I don't really understand it. Same strain; they're in the same substrate and have been treated exactly the same since germination.... One handles the nutrients without any problems, and the other 2 are causing issues.... I think I'll wait until the end of this week and then see 😔😔 Day 38 Since the first two have now started showing signs of deficiency, I've raised the EC back to 1.5. Unfortunately, number 3 was disposed of today 😔 Something just didn't fit there. It didn't really want to grow anymore and stayed completely yellow at the tips.

Brujha77 Unfortunately, only 2 ladies left.... Day 42 For #2, the lower shoots were topped again (both now have 16 main shoots) Day 45 It's slowly coming along 👍. I think I'll send the two into flowering on 07/05.

Brujha77 Beginning week 7 And the problems keep coming..... I can't get the two to handle the same EC... Well, I'll stay at 2.0 until 07/05 and then go into flowering. Let's see 😒 Day 50 Another 10L of nutrient solution was prepared. EC 2.0 and pH is at 6.2 - 6.3 Day 52 It's slowly getting better. 👍👍🙏

Brujha77 Soo, The light was adjusted today (56 days veg) Really curious to see if both make it.... Day 60 At least one of the 3 seems to be doing something. I'll leave both for now, really curious to see if/what comes out of the left one. I was considering maybe flushing again.....

Brujha77 First week of flowering is over. Day 67 The left one was completely flushed. Last attempt... Day 68 It seems to be getting a bit better. But still quite light. I think I'll add some CalMag.

Brujha77 Start week 3 of flowering Slowly it's looking better, the flushing probably helped. No idea.... #1 got some CalMag added in the last 3 days after the flushing (3ml/l) Tsg74 Some leaves were removed from the bottom.

Brujha77 Start week 4. The stretch seems to be slowly finishing up. They'll just be 2 small ladies, but I'm glad with how it looks after the stress..... 😌 I just hope it stays like this. At the moment, the 2 look good, although the one on the right has a bit of burnt tips. But the fertilizer will stay as it is.😉 Day 81 The ladies are doing quite well.

Brujha77 Start week 5 of flowering. Looks like something is still coming out after the stress at the beginning. I was really worried that they might hermie after all the back and forth. 👍

Brujha77 Start week 6 of flowering. The only thing being done right now is setting up a new tank of nutrient solution once a week. Now and then, big fan leaves are being removed, otherwise it looks pretty good, although the right one is turning a bit yellow again... 😥

Brujha77 Start of week 7 flowering Day 45 flowering Since I have to refill the tank tomorrow, I'll switch directly from Core to Fade. I would have done it anyway on Saturday. For the remaining weeks, I'll be using Fade and Bloom.

Brujha77 Beginning week 8 of flowering Since the day before yesterday (day 103), the two are fading until the end. I'm really curious about this 🤞 Day 108 It's getting really colorful in the tent 😍😍 If only they had looked like this from the start 🤗🤗 But again, both are reacting completely differently to the nutrients.... Trichomes are slowly turning milky. I guess another 1-2 weeks. Day 109 The lady on the right will be ready by the end of the week. I estimate she should be ready by Saturday or Sunday. Day 110 The right one was flushed today and taken off the AutoPot. Saturday or Sunday is when it will be time 🍾

Brujha77 Think back to the beginning of last week. The right one needs another 1-2 days, the other will probably take another week.. Number 2. I estimate it needs another week.

Brujha77 So, Number 1 has made it. Day 117 Number 2 is also done and hanging to dry. Significantly more orange, but very strong foxtailing. Well, I knew it wouldn't be impressive in terms of quantity. I estimate that dried, it will be around 60-80 grams from both plants. Unfortunately, this time it didn't go well.... 😔
