cangrowz Air Lemon x Shishkaberry 🍋🍇 – Germination
Outdoor Grow 2026
This is my outdoor project for 2026 with the Air Lemon x Shishkaberry from Green House Seed Company. The seeds were sponsored – I'm definitely grateful for that. The goal is to keep a solid and as accurate as possible diary throughout the entire grow. I’ll try to stick to the weeks well, even though it won't always work out 100%.
For the germination and the first few days, I used Plagron Lightmix. The little ones have sprouted well, but they initially had a bit too little light and therefore stretched a little. But that's not a big deal since they have plenty of time to stabilize outside all summer long.
The outdoor spots have already been prepared, and the soil has been nicely loosened. Now it's just a matter of waiting – after the ice saints (in about 2–3 weeks), I will decide when they will finally go outside.
Until then, they’ll just grow relaxed and gather strength for the season.
Happy Growing Growmies! 💚🌱

cangrowz Grow Diary Air Lemon x Shishkaberry 🍋🍇 – End of Week 1 / Beginning of Week 2
The two are developing quite well despite the not entirely optimal conditions at the moment. Due to the lack of light, they are stretching a bit, but I had already anticipated this since the location unfortunately could hardly be resolved differently. Nevertheless, both continue to grow steadily and so far show no major problems. 🌱
In the next few days, I will try to optimize the light setup a bit more so that the stems become stronger and the plants can grow more compactly. So far, they remain vital and continue to sprout daily. I’m curious to see how they will develop from Week 2 onwards 👊🏻

cangrowz Grow Diary Air Lemon x Shishkaberry 🍋🍇 – End of Week 2 / Beginning of Week 3
Due to the strong stretching from the lack of light, I've decided to put them outside now – only the tough ones make it to the garden 😄 The conditions aren't perfect yet and the Ice Saints are still ahead, but I think they'll manage anyway. 🌱
For the nights, I'll put something over the plants so it doesn't get too cold and they are a bit more protected. Now it's time to wait and hope that the weather cooperates and that they can really take off outside 👊🏽🍋🍇

After I set the two free about a week ago so they could grow properly, I honestly thought the worst because of the cold. Especially with the Ice Saints, I was a bit worried about how well they would handle being outside. So far, though, I have to say it's going much better than I expected. I even built them a little house to keep it from getting too cold at night and to give them some protection.
The stretching from the initial light deficiency is still visible, but I think that will balance out nicely during the summer growth phase. They still have plenty of time to become stronger and more stable. Given the current temperatures, I'm really satisfied with how they're doing.
Thanks for reading, everyone. Happy Growing, Growmies! 🌱

cangrowz 🍋🍇 Air Lemon x Shishkaberry – End of Week 3 to Beginning of Week 7
Since I currently can't visit the two very often, I have summarized the development from the end of Week 3 to the beginning of Week 7 in this update. Despite the somewhat less frequent checks, both plants have been developing very well so far and show healthy growth.
Currently, about 20 weeks of outdoor season are still ahead. As the plants grow larger, there will naturally be more frequent and detailed updates with more pictures. The currently installed roof will remain as protection for now, but will be removed once the plants have reached sufficient size and need more space to unfold freely.
I am curious to see how the genetics of Air Lemon and Shishkaberry will continue to show in the coming weeks. The next months will definitely be interesting. 🍋🍇🌱

The two ladies are continuing to develop splendidly and are visibly gaining size and strength week by week. 💚 I've removed the random greenery growing around the plants to ensure the Air Lemon x Shishkaberry have enough space, light, and air. Since I can't check in on the ladies too often at the moment, this was definitely a sensible measure.
What's particularly pleasing this year is the low number of snails. Compared to last year with the Apple Fritter, there's hardly any snail damage visible so far, which is of course beneficial for the plants. 🐌🚫
Currently, the two are at the end of Week 7 and the beginning of Week 8 and continue to show healthy, vigorous growth. If all goes according to plan, they have about 20–22 weeks of growth and development ahead. It will be exciting to see what the season brings. 🌱☀️
Thanks for reading and stopping by!

🌿 Beginning of week 9 🌿
So far, the two are growing really excellently! The current heatwave in Germany seems to be suiting them just fine. With temperatures of 30–35 °C, which will accompany us for a few more days, I expect the plants to gain quite a bit in size until October.
The protective roof that is currently over them will stay for now, but it will be removed as soon as they almost reach the top edge. It shouldn't take long. After that, they'll get full southeast sun, which should give them an additional growth boost.
The current state is definitely looking good. Compared to last year with the Apple Fritter, these two are significantly ahead. The comparison with the old pictures clearly shows how much better the development has been so far. I hope it continues like this.
To all the Growmies: Be careful with the temperatures, stay in the shade as much as possible, and drink enough water. ☀️💧
Thanks for reading and following along with the grow!

The two outdoor ladies continue to grow significantly in size and are developing just as I hoped. After the minor setbacks at the beginning, they have recovered incredibly well at their location. Honestly, I expected this because the position is nearly perfect for both of them. They get ideal conditions there and thank me with vigorous growth.
By now, the plants have almost reached the roof. After the intense heatwave with temperatures over 40 °C and the subsequent thunderstorms, I will give them about another week to fully recover from it. After that, the roof will come off so they can get full sunlight from above and further maximize their potential.
I haven't measured them yet, but I estimate that both are now close to the 1.70-meter mark. I'm pretty sure we'll exceed the 2-meter mark if the weather continues to cooperate. It's really impressive what these extreme temperatures can do for growth. In a very short time, the plants have gained several centimeters and show really strong growth.
The smell is still quite limited at the moment, mainly due to the good airflow at their location. So far, only a light scent is noticeable, even though the plants have already reached a decent size.
I'm curious to see how the next weeks develop and look forward to taking you along on this outdoor run.
Thank you for reading, and of course, a big thank you to Green House Seeds for the promo seeds for this run! 💚

The two Air Lemon x Shishkaberry are continuing to develop really strong and are visibly gaining size week by week.
In the next few days, I’ll be doing some maintenance. I will remove some shoots and a few larger leaves from the lower area to allow more air and light to reach the inside of the plants. This way, the energy can concentrate even better on the upper areas.
Since the roof was removed, the plants now have significantly more space to grow upwards. I’m really curious to see what final height they will reach in the coming weeks. To be honest, I didn’t expect such strong growth. The currently warm temperatures and the summery weather are certainly playing an important role as well.
Although there are still a few weeks until harvest for the two, I’m more than satisfied with their development so far and I’m looking forward to the next updates.
A big thank you goes out again to the sponsor of the seeds, Green House Seeds, as well as to everyone who follows this grow diary and supports it with comments and likes. 💚

The two are continuing to develop really strong and seem to grow day by day. I find it much more exciting to not check on them daily, but to give them a few days. This way, you can clearly see the progress each time.
In the last few days, I did a proper lollipop on both plants. I briefly considered topping them, but then decided against it. Since they will stretch quite a bit at the beginning of flowering anyway, it seemed like the better decision. Currently, the two should be about 2.30 to 2.40 m tall.
Now there's roughly the same amount of time ahead of them until harvest. With this update, we have officially reached halftime. The weather is also perfect at the moment. During the day, temperatures are between 26 and 32 °C, and at night a pleasant 18 to 20 °C. This probably won't last long, as next week temperatures are expected to rise back towards 40 °C. I'm curious to see how much progress the two will make by the next update.
Thank you to everyone who follows my Grow Diary and keeps coming back. A big thank you also goes to Green House Seeds for sponsoring the seeds.
Happy growing everyone! 🌱💚
Your Cangrowz
@Tower84, Thank you so much! 💚 I really appreciate it. So far the season has been amazing and I hope it stays that way until harvest. Wishing you a fantastic outdoor season as well.
@Green_Claws, Thank you very much! 💚 I thought the cross would be something special too, and so far it definitely hasn’t disappointed. Let’s see how they finish. Happy Growing 🌱😁💪
@Hawii_ReLoaded Thanks for the comment :) 🌱 I was also very surprised about that, as far as I remember from Greenhouse, it's actually a very new strain 🌱
@@hassehujasse Yeah, I’d let them flower naturally. The natural light cycle in Germany is usually enough to trigger flowering on its own. It puts less stress on the plants and lets them develop as intended. I’d only force flowering if space, timing, or weather becomes an issue. 🌱🤙
@The_Kitchen_Raccoon, Thanks a lot! Yeah the structure is really something else. I actually have a Shishkaberry planned for my next outdoor run, so it's awesome to hear your Shishka cross is doing great outside too. Gotta keep an eye on how yours turns out. Happy Growing Growmie🌱
@Condocannibus, Appreciate it my friend! Giving them a nice breeze really helps strengthen the stems for flower later on. Glad you liked the little video update.
@Condocannibus, Thank you! They are definitely enjoying every ray of light they can get right now. The daily progress is just super fun to watch at this stage.
