Simba732 It’s been a while Growmies
Welcome to my TROPICANA COOKIES diary.
The seed is from FastBuds and I’m pretty excited growing strains from these guys, heard a lot about them so hopefully everything works smoothly. I have more from them currently running, I’ll be updating progressively
I’m happy to be back in the farm.
This time around I’m on a Pheno Hunt to find which strains to add to my personal collection.
Germinated on the 10th of August 25 (Seed in water Cup for 3 days )
Planted on the 14th

Simba732 She seems to be a fast one like the name of the breeder says.
Soil mix is well amended, I will probably stop with the nutes for now to prevent a lockout from happening.
From Day 10 she started really moving so I decided to go ahead with my Defoliation technique only.
I want to even out my canopy without topping.
Defoliated on Day 14
Will continue to defoliate as close to the main node as possible to allow lower branches to catch on.
Let’s see how it goes

Simba732 Got a hold of CAL-DORA and DORA-MAG.
It’s what’s available in my area and I think it will do the job concerning my plants CAL-MAG needs.
As the days progressed I kept up with my defoliation technique.
The main cola did everything to stay up but I had to keep it at bay.
So far so great!
This all boils down to learning and enjoying while doing it.
Looking forward to the coming weeks
Happy growing 💚💚💚

Simba732 Week 4 over for wa girl.
Soil PH was off this week and the ppm levels was way too high after I tested my runoff.
So this week was mainly about flushing and trying to get the medium back to ideal conditions.
So far she’s recovered well and been cruising ever since.
There are a lot of new tops showing up so I need to lightly defoliate and tuck in some leaves to allow even light distribution on the canopy.
Temperatures have been assessed, I could see stress on a few of my plants already.
Really interesting plant though, the smell has started coming out and it’s lovely 😍
Let’s see how everything goes.
Take care beautiful people

Simba732 She recovered from the adjustments and the soil being in better conditions for nutrients uptake she continued with her growth normally.
I reintroduced the microbial system by watering with a compost tea I made.
I then reintroduced nutes to her feed all while making sure all solutions given were at the ideal Ph and PPMs.
I mostly use RO water with 5.2 Ph/ 32 PPM so after the flush I gave days to the soil to dry back then for the next watering I had to ph up around 5.8 to 6.3 to tackle the high ph issue in my medium. Gradually we came back to range with the last watering I checked and we were around 6.5 ph/ 1089 PPM which is ideal for where I want my soil to be.
Around day 38 she started showing pistils on a few tops.
By the end of the week I could tell she had officially entered her flowering stage.
I didn’t defoliate this week, I wanted to give time to the plant to recover. I instead did some LST by the end of the week to open up the canopy a little more.
I love how everything is going
I’m grateful for the knowledge I’m learning along the way.
Take care of your loved ones
happy growing
