McBubatz So I cleaned the tent, installed a new iHub, and I'm ready for a new round. This time there are Run Photos again, here are the Straw Limez from Grounded Genetics, I picked the thickest seed from all of them 😁 and placed it in a little container with a damp paper towel. Once they sprout and a bit of root is showing, they'll go into Jiffy’s.
42 hours later, the seed is open, the root is showing, and into the Jiffy it goes 👌. Straw Limez is the one that's the furthest along.

McBubatz 1st week starts, the Starw Limez is so far the biggest and fastest. Better photos will come in the next few days.
Bio Tabs fertilizer added according to manufacturer instructions (final pot) before transplanting, plus a little Great White, about 1g, into the hole where it was planted.

Oh, today my Vivosun dehumidifier finally arrived, painfully installed 😅 and put into operation. Now I'm ready for high humidity 💪

McBubatz 5th week, the cold is hitting harder than expected. During the day, I get around 20°, and at night it sometimes drops to 14°. Well, there's not much I can do right now except hope for the best. The plant is growing a bit slower than usual, but still quite acceptable. Topping has gone well, and with about 70% lamp power, it should at least get a bit warmer during the day. I'll see what I can do about the nighttime temperature; due to lack of space, it will probably stay like this 😅 unfortunately, I can't set up any more equipment 🙈
So, I did a bit of research and came across the Vivosun AeroFlux W70 and ordered it. Very cool, ultra-compact heater that brought the tent up to a nice 24° in about 5 minutes. I'll gradually increase it by a degree over the next few days until I reach 26-27°C during the day and not below 20-21°C at night.

McBubatz Week 6, right now things are looking somewhat good with the ladies, temperatures are no longer a problem, growth is back on track, and some defoliation has been done. If everything goes smoothly, we'll probably switch to 12/12 next week.
Until then, I wish you a nice week and thank you for stopping by 😊
VW 6 Day 2 at 26° during the day, raised the temperature and installed the ADlite B30 from Mars Hydro.
VW 6 Day 3 new photos
VW 6 Day 5, I'm still removing a few bothersome leaves and adjusting the training a bit.

McBubatz Week 7, start of flowering week 1. I switched to 12/12 today and started feeding the bloom nutrients, a bit less than the manufacturer's recommendations. Otherwise, the ladies have been doing well these past weeks and have caught up nicely even though the cold start wasn't ideal. Humidity will be gradually reduced to about 40% over the next few days, and the temperature has settled around 25°.

McBubatz Week 8, BW 2. The Straw Limez is growing nicely, apparently she's doing well, she likes quite a bit of nutrients and light too 😄. A little defoliation was done, next week we'll tidy up a bit more and hopefully soon we'll have some fat buds coming 😁.

McBubatz 9th week, BW 3. The Straw Limez is doing really well, very strong/thick shoots and nice growth. Other than that, not much to say except that the days will still be defoliated and lollipopped. Photos of the updates will come in the next few days.
BW 3 Day 4, defoliated, lollipopped, and a few shoots removed. Photos 4 & 5.
BW 3 Day 5, gave another 8ml/l Ogatrex and 1g/l Bactrex.
Until then, have a nice week everyone 👋

McBubatz 10 weeks, BW 4. Straw Limez is a real powerhouse, already super resinous, such beautiful sturdy branches and good mass. Now it's slowly entering the hot phase, hopefully, she'll also get some nice buds.

Wishing you all a great week and stay healthy 🙏, see you next week then.

McBubatz 11. Woche, BW5. Straw Limez sieht gesund aus, produziert schön viele und dicke Pistillen, leider momentan noch etwas viel Blattmaße in den Blüten, hoffe das wird net zu wild 🙈. Egal ansonsten steht sie super da, der Geruch is bis jetz mein Highlight, Erdbeeren mit ner guten Portion Chem, hoffentlich bleibt das so ungefähr 😄.

McBubatz 12th week, BW 6. Straw Limez is doing well, buds are slowly getting bigger, trichomes are crazy, and the smell is amazing, still slightly changing. Right now it’s still sweet strawberry but with something cola-like in the background, really cool, can’t wait to see how it tastes.
Thanks for stopping by and maybe leave a like 🙏 wishing you all a great week, see you soon 😁.

McBubatz 13th week, BW 7. Straw Limez is doing well, the buds are getting bigger, hopefully still a good bit more 😅. Otherwise, she looks healthy, producing trichomes like no other, she looks like she’s been sprinkled with trichomes 🤣. The smell is the 2nd highlight here, still very strawberry-like, so extremely pronounced 🤤 I really didn’t expect that 👌.

McBubatz 14th week, BW 8. Straw Limez has gained more flower mass, trichomes are mostly milky but I think it still needs a bit longer, I'll post some more trichome pictures in the coming days.

McBubatz 15th week, BW 9. Straw Limez is still putting on a bit of mass with the buds, trichomes are mostly milky and some are already amber. Unfortunately, the strawberry note has really taken a backseat and the spiciness has come to the forefront, which is a bit of a shame. The trichome heads on her are really huge, easily visible to the naked eye, but unfortunately, the bud structure isn't that great. Let's see how the final product turns out 😅.
I think by next week she'll be ready.
Thanks for stopping by, wishing you a great week 🍀🌞

McBubatz 16th week, BW 9. Straw Limez is a nice one, unfortunately the buds are extremely filled with sugar leaves but also have a good amount of trichomes, which I think makes up for it. I’ll probably mostly be hunting through the pollinator, but we’ll see when the time comes 😄. Other than that, she’s doing her thing without any fuss.
The smell is still quite spicy and has a sweet background.
Thanks for stopping by, wishing you a great week 🍀🌞
Top result. The Straw Limez is a great plant, good growth (very bushy), strong branches, decent bud production, and even more impressive trichome production down to the smallest buds; in some places, they almost look white from all the trichomes. The strawberry smell has really faded into the background with the fresh product; I think when it’s dry and cured, it will come back a bit more (hopefully). Right now, it’s more spicy/herbal in the foreground. But I’m really satisfied with the result.

McBubatz Super result, it's now hanging to dry. I'm looking forward to the results; after it's in the jars, there will be a few shots of the buds and an update on the taste.
Thanks for stopping by, wishing you a lovely week 🍀🌞
@KuaerSchlaeger, yeah I have a TrimBin, I always shake it a bit when I'm done trimming, then it goes in a freezer bag into the freezer. I either make butter out of it or just wait until the pollen machine is available again 😅🤣. I'd love to buy one, but they're always sold out, and I'm too lazy to shake it myself 🙈
@KuaerSchlaeger, yeah, I'm also convinced now that it would be worth it, but the ones from Heisenberg are always sold out 😅 and an original is too expensive for me. After about 2-3 grows, just the trim would already add up to a few bucks, I could then press it and get the maximum out of the "waste" 🤣 and popcorn buds and excess can also be kept nice and small like that.
@Stony_German, thank you, oh I actually wanted the Strawberry Gummies but unfortunately they were no longer available 😄 well, I hope this one also has a tasty treat.
I know the problem with the cold well, my tent is in the basement 😅 I have a 200 watt ultra-flat infrared heater connected to a temperature timer so it doesn't get too cold at night.
@McBubatz, so I currently have about 14 degrees in the basement, and in the tent, I can keep the temperature at 19 in the dark. I have to say, though, it turns on at 18 degrees and turns off at 19.5. It holds for about an hour and takes maybe 10 minutes to warm up. Mine is from Solea.
@KuaerSchlaeger, oh that's not bad, I just ordered the Vivosun AeroFlux 🙈. It should still fit in the tent, it's surprisingly compact but not exactly cheap 😅, hopefully it arrives quickly and lives up to the promises.
@MonyetDiablero, Hehe, thank you very much, yes, it has an interesting color, occasionally fresh, bright green/yellow pistils shine through, which in combination with the sheer mass of trichomes gives it such a cool color. I think it's more of a washer genetics with the mass of trichomes, I'll take a look at it, maybe most of it is processed into hash and rosin and the thickest/prettiest buds are preserved 😅 I also think it's hell to trim them 🙈
