Tangie Dna Genetics

Jardin33ro Start of this grow. Starting from selected cuttings. In 1/4 pots with lightmix, then came the transplant to an 11-liter pot with complete mix and mycorrhizae. This week was all about adapting to the new environment. Foliar application of a sulfur-based preventive and potassium soap since these cuttings came from a situation with spider mites. Full preventive measures.

Jardin33ro Here the plant has already produced new leaves and started to gradually feed off the substrate, and we managed a pH of 6.0. The LED at 40% was already felt, and the plant was absorbing it correctly.

Jardin33ro Here this week we applied different prunings; we did FIM on 3 and apical on 1. We already set up the SCROG net, and soon we'll move to flowering. It's hot at this time of year, so if there were spider mites before, they were starting to show now, and the battle was beginning.

Jardin33ro This week we changed the photoperiod to 12/12 at the end of the week. On day 19, we also did defoliation so that the plant stretches a bit more and air circulates better to reach day 21 and make the final selection of branches. Here we are struggling with spider mites, which already came with the cuttings. The summer heat reached 30 degrees on some days, and it gets complicated in the advanced flowering stage if not controlled well.

Jardin33ro This week it starts to stretch and structurally form to support the flowers. We already switched the fertilizer to the flowering one and its respective additives. The LED was already at 60% by this point and the heat wouldn't let up.

Jardin33ro Here we are doing the final pruning and selection of main branches, it's always better to prioritize branches. That energy is directed to fewer flowers and then we have denser buds. Let's keep going!

Jardin33ro This week, you can already see the flower's pompom. It's starting to take shape, and we're still battling with spider mites. They had the ideal environment, high heat and low humidity.

Jardin33ro They were progressing at their own pace, slow but steady. At least that’s how it seemed to me back then, let’s remember that this sativa has a long flowering and where patience needs to be worked on haha

Jardin33ro Here we can see more presence of pistils and taking shape of what this genetics can potentially give us. We continue trying to control the red spider mite, without affecting the flowers too much.

Jardin33ro Here the plant is already fully transformed into full bloom, the heat in the room wouldn't stop and that makes things more complicated. But for now, we see the swelling and the increase in flowers.

Jardin33ro We're still working to maintain a high pH so the plant can feed properly. This week, you can already see the structure it's going to have, a bud taking shape and a slight resin. The smell of tangerine is already very strong.

Jardin33ro Here we start with the overdrive to give that final fattening!

Jardin33ro We're continuing with overdrive and you can already see the late fattening. A long flowering.

Jardin33ro Well, we wanted to finish this grow. The little spider kept putting up a fight, but the buds kept fattening up.

Jardin33ro Last week for this Tangie, I had to leave the city and couldn't risk losing the grow to the red spider. It doesn't show in the photos, but the truth is I was battling the pest day by day; if I left it at the mercy of the spider for a few days, they would definitely take all the buds.

Jardin33ro We could have had a more optimal cutoff point, but the truth is it was a successful first grow. Very rich in aromas and flavors. The tangerine smell is very pronounced, and in the end, there's a hint of pepper that makes the citrus tangie not too overwhelming. 250 g dry, not bad at all.
