El-Ecko Here’s my second report. I decided to go with the “Frostbanger Auto F4” and hope I got the dark phenotype. I germinated the seeds in a peat plug, which I transferred to a 15L fabric pot immediately after germination. For this grow, I’ve chosen the “Sonnenerde” living soil.🌞 Immediately after germination, it will be placed outdoors on my balcony (southeast-facing). And it will stay there. On cold nights, I’ll cover it a bit. Otherwise, it will remain exposed to all weather Wish me luck 😆 Day 1 Germination The seed was placed in cold water for about 40 hours and covered. 💧 Day 2 Germination 💦🌊 Day 3 Germination. The seed has sprouted and was planted in the peat plug.... and now it’s time to wait. ⏱️ Day 4 Germination ⏱️ Day 5 Germination Things were already happening early in the morning, and the Frostbanger popped out of the coconut coir🌱. 😀 Day 6 Germination Today, the fresh seedling was planted in the living soil. To prevent the fresh roots from getting burned by the “harsh” soil, I filled a larger pot with soil that’s lower in nutrients. (approx. 500 ml Tks 2). Then I placed the little one, along with a cover, on the balcony. 🌞🌱 Day 7 Germination Conclusion: I can’t really say much. Just that it worked absolutely wonderfully. Germination went quickly and without any problems. I’m curious to see how the 🌱 does over the next few cold days here in the Sauerland

El-Ecko 1 week of VEGETATION ...oh man, what a week.🤧. On Monday, the weather was still halfway decent. But what followed was just classic “Sauerland weather.” It was cold and rainy. I have to admit I moved the plants back inside onto the windowsill for a few more nights. I hope the next few days will be much better. Otherwise, this is starting to feel like a full-time job.😆 Saturday was finally a ray of hope. And the little ones🌱 could finally soak up some sun again. Conclusion: Growth looks stable, but you can tell the plant is lacking warmth and light. But that’s just how it is, and I’m sure it can only get better. One of the first serrated leaves is slightly deformed, but I don’t think it’s a problem.

El-Ecko Week 2: VEGETATION There isn't really much to report this week. The little Frostbanger is growing slowly but surely. The leaves look a bit deformed. Probably because of the nutrient-rich soil.🤔 But I'm not really worried about it. By the end of the week, it should have adjusted to the soil's nutrient content... at least that’s my hope. On the last day of this week, I sowed garden cress to create a protective layer for the living soil, and the clippings will serve as a mulch layer. At least that’s the plan. And another positive note: the weather forecast is slowly looking better 🌻☀️

El-Ecko 3 Weeks of VEGETATION I’m absolutely thrilled with how things are going. It has a rich, lush green color.🌱🌿 The cress I used as a mulch layer has grown beautifully and still looks really nice.😍 It handles full sun more than just fine... and the little Frostbanger seems to have adapted very well to the nutrient content of the Living Soil.

El-Ecko Week 4 of Vegetation It was a wonderful, sunny week.☀️ And the Frostbanger really enjoyed it to the fullest. I didn’t add any extra nutrients. I don’t have any experience with this, but I think the Sonnenerde hemp soil works very well in terms of its composition. It also retains moisture extremely well. Unfortunately, the coming week will be a bit cold and wet, and temperatures will drop below 10 degrees again at night. I’m still looking forward to seeing how it develops.🔝?

El-Ecko Week 5: Vegetative Growth Not much has happened this week, but it’s growing steadily and has turned a beautiful, rich green🌱. Since the sun only shines on my balcony until 2 p.m., it’s all the more tragic that it isn’t shining at all right now. 😅 It shouldn’t be long before it enters the flowering phase and hopefully takes a big step forward.🌸⬆️ Two leaves are deformed… and look very interesting 😁.

El-Ecko 1 week into flowering It’s definitely not the biggest one🌱⬇️. And yet, I’m satisfied so far. The weather has been really bad again. Barely 15 degrees during the day and well below 10 degrees at night. The side shoots are still growing very slowly. Let’s see what happens next week. The forecast calls for much sunnier and warmer weather. 🌻☀️

El-Ecko 2 Weeks into Flowering Daytime temperatures have gone from 15° to 30° in just one or two days. But I really can’t complain… because I needed the warmth, too😅. I decided to do a light LST to help the little side shoots get more sunlight. The little flowers are slowly taking on a beautiful purple hue. Hopefully, they’ll get really plump and sticky. 😋🤤 Thanks so much for stopping by. ✌️

El-Ecko Week 3 of Flowering It was a very good week for all the plants. We had temperatures above 30 degrees all week long. ☀️🔝 But since the sunlight only hits my balcony until around 2 p.m., the strong sun isn’t really a problem. The flowers are steadily filling out, and the coloration is getting more and more beautiful.🌸? The scent is still very subtle. It’ll remain a small plant, which really doesn’t bother me at all. It just looks great.😋🌱

El-Ecko 4 weeks into flowering There isn't much to report. The flowers are turning a beautiful color and slowly swelling. ?🔝 The plant has a really nice, dense structure and is starting to smell absolutely wonderful. 🌸😍 Unfortunately, the weather leaves a bit to be desired... it’s very humid. I’m slowly getting a little worried about bud rot setting in. 😬

El-Ecko Week 4 of Flowering I can’t even begin to tell you how beautiful this plant is. It’s small and got off to a slow start. But these flowers are simply a dream.?🥦🔝 The way that deep purple from the flower gradually spreads into the leaves… and that subtle yet lovely scent… simply delightful. 🤩The week started with relatively cool temperatures and humid conditions… but by the middle of the workweek, the weather became much more summer-like again, which certainly did the plants a world of good.☀️👌 Translated with DeepL.com (free version)

El-Ecko Week 5 of flowering This little beauty smells absolutely wonderful.And that’s exactly what the flowers look like, too.?🌱👌It seems like the flowers’ growth is slowing down. I want to give it one more week to let the trichomes mature a bit more. Plus, I’ll be going on vacation soon, so this way I can make sure everything is taken care of.😋☀️

El-Ecko 6 weeks of flowering She’s ready for harvest. Almost all the trichomes are milky, and some are already brownish. She smells wonderfully like fruity cream candies🤩. The buds look gorgeous. If it passes the taste test in a few weeks, I’ll grow it again next year. It stayed small, but that was due to my mistakes and the really cold weather it was exposed to at the beginning of the year.

A wonderfully fragrant plant. To me, the flowers smell like those Campino fruit candies. I’m curious to see how they’ll taste when smoked after drying and fermentation Update: I’ve already tried it today. And it tastes great even now. Unfortunately, I can’t give an objective opinion on its effects. Since I seem to be one of those people who have an extremely high tolerance. It’s always been that way... I like to smoke in company... I like the smell of smoke... and I almost always reach a point of inner contentment. That’s my high.
