Kushycat New journey, new luck. I’m really excited about this opportunity from @paradiseseeds to show that I’ve learned from my early mistakes and can finally bring a few plants to maturity without them looking half-dead like my first indoor growing attempts 😄 In addition to debuting this fine strain, this will also be my very first run with photoperiod plants. Paradise Seeds provided me with 3 Caramba seeds and 3 Auto Kong seeds. The Auto Kongs will most likely be used in a future run, and so the two Carambas don’t feel too lonely, I ordered some Mendo Crème myself. For a better overview, I’ll create: one grow diary featuring 2 Caramba plants and another one with 2 Mendo Crème plants. I don’t have a fixed plan yet for how long the vegetative phase will last, but I’m thinking it’ll probably be on the longer side. First, I want to see how they develop and then decide when to switch to 12/12. A big thank you to Viviana and the whole team at @paradiseseeds . I’ve polished my tent to a high shine and hope I managed to take some nice pictures. So… let the wild ride begin! 😄

Kushycat There isn't much to report yet, as you can see. They took their time soaking up water before finally cracking open. They're now in the tent, and the lamp is running at 40% power on an 18-hour schedule. Tomorrow I'll turn on the humidifier and let nature take its course. One exciting change for future grows is that I'll be generating my own electricity to power them. Since they're still small and stretched a bit despite being kept in a bright spot, I've given them some support with stakes. Their stems are already strong enough to hold themselves up, but I'd rather not take any chances. I've also engineered a high-performance watering device to prevent the kind of water-related disasters I've managed to create in previous grows. See the pictures for this cutting-edge technology. xD

Kushycat Hi, I'm a little late with this update because I haven't been feeling very well lately. The little ones seem to be doing fine so far. 🌱 I've been careful with watering. I haven't weighed the pots, but I've started to get a feel for whether they're dry or can wait another day. I was wondering why they were growing so slowly. At first I thought it might be because I left them on the balcony for the first two days since the weather was nice. I figured a little sunshine wouldn't hurt at the start. ☀️ After comparing them, I realized the lamp was hanging a bit too high. It's running at 40% power and is now about 70 cm above the plants after I adjusted it. I'll probably switch on the second lamp in the next few days and lower them a little more. How low would you go at this stage? They seem much happier now, and I've definitely noticed better growth since adjusting the light. I'm taking it easy this run. This time I have the luxury of playing Mother Nature myself and deciding when the flowers start to bloom. 😄🌿

Kushycat Another week has passed 🌱 Everything is fine, but I’m dealing with a few fungus gnats ?. Only a small number, but I want to get rid of them early. I know most growers end up with them at some point, but I’d rather not let them settle in and multiply. I’ve set up yellow sticky traps ? and will add neem oil at the next watering 🌿. Growth has picked up noticeably 🌿✨, but I’m still running the light at 40% power. It’s brutally hot outside ☀️, and the tent is already sitting at around 31°C 🔥. I’ll switch on the activated carbon filter now, and if everything goes to plan, there should be a small air conditioner in the grow space by the end of the month ❄️. I topped the plants ✂️🌱, and just a day later I can already see the first tiny signs of new upward growth. They’re very vigorous 💪🌿 and gently swaying in the fan’s airflow 🌬️. I’m still watering carefully 💧, but I can tell they’re getting thirstier now—partly because of the heat ☀️ and partly because their growth has really taken off 🚀🌱

Kushycat Hi everyone! 👋🌱 Sorry for the late update, but unfortunately I've had a lot on my plate lately. On top of that, I may have a fracture in my already injured foot. 😅 Hopefully I'll know more soon. Well... I finally found some time and, more importantly, the motivation to write an update again. To be honest, the whole situation has been pretty tough on me lately, and I've been struggling a bit mentally. But hey... life goes on somehow. 💚 Oh, and it looks like the woman is gone too, so I guess I'm single again. 😂🙈 Now to the important part! 🌿 It has been extremely hot in the tent, and I still haven't bought an air conditioner. The girls handled the heat surprisingly well, but they've barely grown over the past few days. It was a constant balancing act between keeping the nighttime temperatures as low as possible and maintaining decent relative humidity. 🌡️ I managed to get rid of the fungus gnats with neem oil, although I think I was a little too generous with the dosage, which caused some minor leaf damage. 😅🍃 Luckily, it wasn't anything serious, and they're already recovering nicely from the heat stress and the neem treatment. I'll definitely keep them in the vegetative stage a little longer. More hot weather is on the way, and I'd like them to grow a bit bigger before flipping them to flower. 🌱☀️ They should move into their final 12-liter Air-Pots within the next few days. Technically, this is already Week 5, but I'm going to stick with my weekly update schedule and hopefully stay on track with a new update every seven days from now on. 🤞📅🌱 Thanks for stopping by, and I hope you're all having an amazing grow! 💚🌿

Kushycat Oh yeah, I'm late with the update again, but you guys already know how it goes... struggling every day. 😹 As you can see, it was definitely time to repot the girls. While they were still in their little pots, I had some Guerilla Juice left over from my outdoor plants, but it only helped them a little. I planted all the girls a bit deeper because I want them to get used to their new home first. Then I'll turn them into some nice little bushes before they start flowering. 🌱😄 I think they'll root in over the next few days and recover from the nutrient deficiency and everything else. Fingers crossed! 🤞💚

Have fun with this grow! 🌈 🌱Is this going to be entirely an indoor grow? Or will the plants go outside later on? How are you managing the heat in the summer? I was pre-growing some seedlings 🌱 for the vegetable garden and it was already 35 degrees in my tent!

Kushycat commented2mo ago
@India_Calcoen, Thanks! Yeah, it’s going to be an indoor grow. It was 31 degrees in the tent, but it’s cooled down a bit now. I’m planning to get a small air conditioner for the grow room, though. Since I have a small solar system (pictures to follow), it works well for powering the lights and an air conditioner like that. Plus, there’s a dehumidifier in there too, so I’m killing two birds with one stone, as they say. I assume you take a break from indoor growing when the temperatures get that high where you are? 35 degrees is pretty intense xD

@Kushycat, airconditioning sounds good 👍 Our house and the growing tent get very hot, very fast when outside temperatures are rising. I switched the tent off now. It doesn’t make sense to grill all my plants 😉 The solar system also sounds good!

Hi Kushycat, I hope you do well, tell people around you if you struggle to much🙏! Your plants do seem to handle the stress well, they will grow nicely and will get on top of everything(just like you)!

@paradiseseeds, Thanks for the kind words! Yes, but unfortunately, the next heat wave is on its way. Oh well, I'll repot them later since they really need some new nutrients. 🍀🌞🙈
