Pineapple Express

Germinated in 2 days! They are placed in biodegradable bags to avoid transplant shock later on.

Transplanted them in bigger bags. Those biodegradable bags seem to work well as they grew as fast as the others. No transplanting shock!

Growing nicely.

Good growth.

I added 3 guerilla tabs by BioTabs. Love those.

Should get sunnier soon.

Heat wave incoming.

They survived the heat wave.

Heat wave is back again.

Heat wave is calming down.

Heat wave is gone, here come the storms. I installed a blumat irrigation system linked to two 120 liters reservoir bins.

I installed a blumat drop irrigation system composed of maxi tropf blumats and two 120 liters containers. I combined this with 20cm mulch to prevent high evaporation.

Flowering kicked in ! Also, the blumat system combined with mulching exceded by far my expectations : only 15 liters of water used by 13 plants for a whole week! Damn effective...They could be independant for more than 4 months with temps around 35 degrees celsius and no rain! Although the big Pineapple Express one was the only plant out of 13 to show signs of lack of water.

All's good, irrigation system is confirmed to be as effective as I described last week.

Same thing, all's good. Flowers are souping up, with maybe a secret ingredient coming up next week.

Ok! So this week I applied some secret ingredients (not one but several secret ingredients!) so we'll see how they react. Flowers are budding well.

Ok this is insane...it hasn't even been a week since I put the secret ingredients on my plants and their buds already doubled and sometimes tripled in size...what the heck is that?

Day 8 since the aliens jizzed on my plants. I'm freaking out. The thing is, I might be able to harvest tonight. Including a sativa, at week 6 of flowering...send help, I don't understand what's happening.

So I cut the first one at day 128, in the sixth week of flowering only. This potion magique is trully incredible. I cut this one on day 133.

Overall resilient strain. Survived two consecutive heat waves so it explains the low yield, but buds looks good. Cut at day 128 for the first one and day 133 for the other two. Dried in 8 and 9 days respectively (at 19°C and 55% RH average).
