Chilitom420 đ± MENTAL RAINBOW đ
So, let the story begin.
Many only show the finished plant. The big bushes, the beautiful flowers, and the final result.
However, I've always been much more interested in the journey that leads to it.
That's why I've decided to document this plant from the very first moment. Not just the successes, but the mistakes too. Not just what works, but also what doesn't.
The main character is a Mental Rainbow from Sweet Seeds.
Right now, it's just a tiny seed resting in a Root Riot cube. From the outside, nothing special is happening yet. No roots, no leaves, no plant. Just a seed and a possibility.
But every big plant starts exactly like this.
In the coming weeks and months, we'll follow the development from germination all the way to harvest. In real conditions, with real decisions, real mistakes, and hopefully real successes.
The goal is simple:
See what can be grown.
So you don't have to deal with it...
đ I'll take care of it for you.

Chilitom420 14. day (counting from seed germination)
Today the four seedlings have reached day 14. Their development is steady, all are healthy and vibrant green. The second true leaf pair has fully opened, and the third leaf pair is visibly developing.
The stems are strong, although two plants have stretched a bit, indicating they could have handled a little more light in the earlier days. However, this is not a problem; the plants are stable.
There are no signs of nutrient deficiency or pests on the leaves. The foliage is tight, and the growth tips are active.
Care
Watering: as needed, with small amounts of clean water.
Nutrients: they haven't received any yet.
Rhizotonic: I haven't used it yet.
Rating
The seedlings at this age are very promising. Strong root development and rapid vegetative growth are expected in the coming days.
Condition: âââââ (9/10)

Chilitom420 3rd week | Transplanting and root explosion
Development stage: End of week 3 â transplanting into final fabric pots.
The third most important milestone of the week was the successful transplanting. The plants arrived for transplanting with healthy, deep green foliage, and the root system had completely woven through the root ball of the starter pots. The photos clearly show the dense, snow-white root network, indicating excellent root development and strong growth potential.
After transplanting, the plants were placed in fresh growing medium in 45-liter fabric pots. They handled the procedure well, showing no signs of wilting or transplant shock. The shoot tips continued to grow, and the side branches also started to develop nicely.
đż Nutrients and root treatment
During transplanting, the plants received their first complete regenerative treatment:
Bio Vega â a mild vegetative nutrient solution for leaf and shoot development.
Bio Rhizotonic â for further stimulation of the root zone.
Cannazym â for breaking down dead root parts and supporting soil life.
This provides an excellent foundation for the plants to quickly fill the entire 45-liter medium in the coming days.
đ Condition assessment
đ± Root system: 10/10
đż Foliage development: 9.5/10
đȘ Growth: 9.5/10
đ Overall condition: Excellent
đ Next goal
Rapid vegetative growth is expected in the coming week. The focus will now be on fully developing the root zone, strengthening the side branches, and creating a compact, healthy bush structure.
"We've reached the point by the third week where we're no longer talking about seedlings, but about real young plants. The root system is in fantastic condition, the transplant was successful, and now our explosive development begins, which we've been preparing for all along." đ±

Chilitom420 Mental Rainbow F1 â Week 4
By the end of the fourth week, the Mental Rainbow F1 has made huge progress. It kicked into gear almost immediately after transplanting and has been visibly growing day by day. It has built a strong main stem and thick side branches, the foliage is healthy and deep green, and the plant is full of vitality.
Currently, it is developing in a 45-liter fabric pot with Canna Terra soil. The nutrient program continues to be Canna Terra Vega, Rhizotonic, Cannazym, and CalMag, which it has been responding very well to so far.
The bushy shape is getting more beautiful, with tons of new shoots appearing, so all signs indicate that many flowering tops will form on it. For now, vegetative growth is still dominant, but itâs already showing that a new phase is coming soon.
So far, this is one of the most dynamically developing genetics in the garden. Iâm very curious to see what it will be capable of during flowering. đ±

Chilitom420 đ Mental Rainbow F1 â Week 5
In the fifth week, the Mental Rainbow F1 showed incredible growth. It visibly got bigger almost every day, its stem thickened, and the side branches developed explosively. By this time, I was looking at a strong, well-structured bush with plenty of future flowering tops.
However, an interesting turn of events occurred by the end of the week. The height growth gradually slowed down and then practically stopped. At the same time, the first flower buds appeared, making it clear that the plant had transitioned into the flowering stage.
The Mental Rainbow F1 completely surprised me with this. It switched to flowering much faster than my other photoperiod plants, yet itâs not an auto. Thatâs exactly why it has become one of the most exciting genetics in my garden this season.
It continues to grow in a 45-liter fabric pot, in Canna Terra soil. The nutrient program includes: Canna Terra Vega, Rhizotonic, Cannazym, and CalMag. The plant is healthy, strong, and all signs indicate that in the coming weeks, its main task will be to build up the mass of flowers.
Iâm very curious to see what this genetics can do until harvest. If it maintains this pace and quality, it could easily have a spot in my garden next year. đ±đž

Chilitom420 Flowering â Week 6
By the sixth week, the garden has fully switched to flowering mode. The plants are no longer focusing on height but are dedicating more energy to building flowers. Almost every main branch has developed beautiful buds at the ends, and more white pistils appear day by day.
The flowers are still loosely structured, but it's already clear which plants will produce the biggest colas. The side branches have also caught up nicely, so not just the main tops, but the whole plant is starting to fill out evenly with flowers.
The foliage is healthy, vibrant green, and the plants are responding well to the flowering nutrients. Bio Flores and Bio Boost have proven effective so far, and the growth is continuous and balanced. The goal now is to maintain this healthy state throughout.
The next weeks will focus on bulk production. There are still plenty of white pistils visible, but soon the real swelling will begin when the flowers start to close up and visibly thicken.
The appearance of the garden changes day by day. Walking among the plants in the mornings is already an experience in itself, as there's always something new to discover. If they continue at this pace, we are looking at a very promising season.
đ± The best is yet to come. This is the time when the flowers truly fill with life, resin, and weight. I am already very satisfied with the development of the crop, but I feel that the real spectacle is still ahead of us.
