Irrai Fat Bastard was already a powerhouse in the last grow and was meant to act as a backup in case the other strains suffered excessive losses. Since I still have the Stixx, I should be able to easily keep the little one through the first month until the Ice Saints, but more on that later...

Irrai I moistened the light mix with warm water — about 5–6 liters per 25 liters of soil — and firmly filled the 9L pots, letting them temper for a few days beforehand. Meanwhile I tested and fine‑tuned the CO2 system. 🌡️💧?
I gave them a rudimentary setup, but it should be enough until they're moved outside. 🛠️
So far nothing unusual has happened — no stretching or other issues — we wait in eager anticipation. 🤞🌱✨

Irrai They’re doing well beside the tent, but you can already see a big difference after two weeks even though the conditions are similar. At first I wanted to leave the topping as shown in image 1, but I found the development in the tent with direct topping better and went over it again. 🌱✨👍

Irrai I’m a bit behind on week 3 — I was out of action for a short time and still need a little more time; week 4 will follow at the end of this week 😋.
They are visibly struggling more than the ones in the tent right next to them — whether it’s due to better distribution of humidity or CO2 I can’t say; even inside the tent the variation in appearance and growth rate is very large.
All good so far — no notable incidents . After stressful periods I water additionally with Alg‑A‑Mic in low doses 💦; so far no negative effects observed 🙂.

Irrai My little fighter is being hardened off for outdoors and had to endure a lot; otherwise she’s not really making much progress despite similar lamp output… maybe she now needs that well‑deserved rest.💪

Irrai After the "second" broke off again, I fixed them a bit with insulating tape a few days ago, hoping they’ll grow over it 😅. They’ll be going outside soon — I hope the move doesn’t stress them more than they already have. 🌤️🤞
I paused the CO₂ tests for now because with low ventilation and at 1,200 ppm the bottle emptied almost instantly — so it will most likely be a case of CO₂ running out during the flowering phase. 💨⚗️

Irrai Looks like "next week" was optimistic 😑 — if things go as they are, the outdoor transfer will probably happen the week after next. For the little, mistreated Fat Bastard things still look good; she still has enough life left to recover. I was honestly surprised how tough she is, considering I’ve basically stolen about 75% of the plant count from her by mistake... 😅. Top priority now: better weather, since I had to switch Styx over to power the second of the four new ladies, which leaves each lamp running at a max of 100 W. ☀️🌱💡

Irrai Finally—it's happening! The first two babies got moved out. Safety-Mole is watching the construction site like a pro, and little Fat Bastard is already excited for more — although she really didn’t want to let go of her fabric pot. After a bit of wriggling and tussling, she gently flopped into the soil. 🌱💤
So far she’s settling into her new spot and getting used to all the unfamiliar stimuli. So far, she’s been spared from ants and slugs. 🐜🚫🐌🚫

Irrai I'm occasionally removing one of the top leaves when it's blocking too much light. I also welcomed a new lady to the garden — she might soon make short work of the Fat Bastard, so since I couldn't move her up or out of the way, I had to fence her in for now. Because I can't yet predict how big she'll get and she still has plenty of growing time ahead, I put together a temporary setup that was definitely given the side-eye. 🥦🐶😎
You'll find more snapshots in the Dankberry Outdoors — she rarely sits where I want her to, let alone stays put… but when she does, it's picture-perfect. 😍

Irrai After some LST the plant outgrew its old support, so I upgraded to a bigger cage — that once-tiny leaf ball was already peeking over the old fence. 🌱➡️? The girl is thriving despite the weather, though she’ll still need quite a while to finish. ⏳🌦️
So far I’m relieved not to be battling any crawling pests or critters — no unwanted visitors yet, so all good. 🐞🚫😊
Ich find ja die sieht aus als ob sie gerne größere Schuhe hätte.. nicht mal überlegt ganz zärtlich? 😅 Oder vielleicht in n großen eimer Stellen? Sollte eigentlich flockig durch den stoff kommen wenn er schön feucht ist😅
Richtig schöne dicke Stängel die will meeeeeehr 😜
@TruTraTri, Ja das stimmt aber die sollte ja auch nach meinem Plan vor 2 wochen raus und wie gesagt die Leistung der Stixx reicht nicht mehr ganz aus... aber morgen ist es endlich soweit 👨🌾🌿
