Summer Outdoor / Passion Fruitz Auto

Leprechauns_Garden Week number 1️⃣ All the seeds have germinated and have fought their way out of the soil. 🌱 I keep them lightly moist and will acclimate them to the outside temperature without a plastic dome starting tomorrow. 🌦️ In this sense Let IT grow 🌱🌿💚

Leprechauns_Garden Week number 2️⃣ 🍑Passion Fruitz 🍑 It rained heavily 🌧️ Since there was also a strong thunderstorm and wind one night, the lady got quite shaken up ⛈️ So far, she’s doing well 😌 Now there’s plenty of sunshine ☀️ every day! In this sense Let IT grow 🌱🌿💚

Leprechauns_Garden Hello dear Gromies out there! 👋 First of all, I want to apologize for not posting anything for the last 2–3 weeks. 🙈 I’ve just had so much going on and didn’t really have the time to take care of the ladies like I wanted to, nor to document everything properly. Now I’ve finally found a bit more time and of course, I want to bring you all up to date. 😊 I hope you forgive me for the little break and continue to stick around. Thank you so much! 💚 🍑Passion Fruitz🍑 Unfortunately, the Passion Fruitz got quite a bit of water at the very beginning because it rained and stormed heavily. 🌧️💨 As a result, a few leaf nodes were damaged at first. Currently, it’s forming a nice main stem with a few leaves and honestly looks pretty funny. 😄 It’s a bit behind compared to the others, but that’s not a problem at all. We’re just giving it the time it needs. 🌞 Despite everything, it looks really good 😊 and I’m super happy about how it’s developing and has fought back after the rough start. 💚 In this sense Let IT grow 🌱 🌿 💚

Leprechauns_Garden 🌱 A little bi-weekly update from my ladies – somehow this rhythm seems to be settling in quite nicely. 😄 So let's see what has happened in the last two weeks! 🍑 Passion Fruitz 🍑 My little problem child is no longer a problem child at all – but a real optimist lady! 😄💚 The Passion Fruitz has actually stretched quite a bit and is now about 1.50 m tall. 📏🌱 It still consists almost entirely of this one big main stem, which just looks pretty funny. 😄 But it's blooming really well! 🌸 Beautiful flowers are forming all over the main stem, it's come a long way, and it has also started producing a good amount of resin. ✨ So it still looks quite funny – but at the same time just great! 😍 Considering what the lady had to go through at the beginning, she has really fought back beautifully. 💪🌱 I'm pretty optimistic that something really delicious will come out of this in the end! And her smell is still absolutely unmistakable. 😍 She actually smells just like I remember her from last year on the balcony: really nice, like passion fruit and the South Seas. 🌴☀️ Just that wonderfully tropical Passion Fruitz scent! I’m curious to see how she develops in the coming weeks! In this sense Let IT grow 🌱🌿💚

Leprechauns_Garden 🌱 A little bi-weekly update from my ladies – this time with a bit of vacation delay. 😄🏖️ I'm back refreshed and, it seems, the ladies have made the most of the time too. 🌱☀️ 🍑 Passion Fruitz 🍑 Yes, the Passion Fruitz is no longer a problem child at all! 😄💚 I was away for twelve days and honestly have no idea where all this flower mass suddenly came from. 😂 She always had that one main branch and looked quite special with her somewhat funny little stem. But now she feels like just one huge cola growing beautifully upwards. 🌱🌸 She's really packed on some weight and looks absolutely fantastic! The trichomes also look really great. 🔍✨ Everything is nicely heading towards milky – so about the same phase as the 🌿 Lavender 🌿. And then of course the smell… 😍🌴 Just like I remember from last year's grow: really nice tropical, fruity, and especially a lot of passion fruit! For me, it's actually one of the few sweeter and fruitier cannabis strains that I really enjoy. The smoking experience from last year felt like: I'm smoking a passion fruit with a light coconut undertone. 🥥😂 Absolutely amazing! Of course, that's just my personal perception – I'm usually not that much into fruity cannabis. But the Passion Fruitz? Unbeatable for me! 💚 And she just looks great. You can see for yourselves in the pictures – I think it’s awesome! 📸😍 However, she did have a bit of a visitor during my vacation. 🐛😅 In some places, little caterpillars probably fell onto the leaves and chewed so much that only the stems were left. They didn't touch the buds themselves. Interestingly, even on sugar leaves with bite marks, they stopped right where the trichomes start. 😂✨ My theory: Leaves are tasty – trichomes apparently not so much. 🐛🚫 It certainly hasn't harmed the Passion Fruitz. She looks great, keeps doing her thing, and I'm really impressed with what my former little problem child has become. 💪🌱 I'm super excited for the Passion Fruitz and of course hope that it will be just as delicious this year as last year! 😍🥥 In this sense Let IT grow 🌱🌿💚 P.S.: A little subtle advertising for a big German gardening supply manufacturer. 😇🌱 My wireless irrigation system without a power connection worked excellently and easily covered twelve days of pot watering without any issues. Thank you for that! 💚 Everyone can think for themselves who is meant. 😄

Leprechauns_Garden 🌿🍃🍂 Harvest Time 🍂🍃🌿 🍑 Passion Fruitz 🍑 Today it was time: Harvest! ✂️😍 After a total of 14 weeks – from the germination of the seed to today's harvest day – the 🍑 Passion Fruitz 🍑 has of course made it. My original little problem child. Although: I probably should have never called her a problem child. I should have affirmed her from the very beginning with exactly what she obviously does best: SURVIVE. 😂💪🌱 This plant can simply survive. But let's start as always with the morning trichome check. 🔍✨ It looked good: surprisingly uniform from top to bottom, predominantly milky and still clear trichomes, with a few amber ones in between. She could probably have stayed a few more days. But to be honest: I didn't want to leave her outside alone anymore. 😂 The scent was wonderful, the overall picture fit, and my gut feeling said: She's coming inside today. And hardly had she been cut and safely inside the house, it started to rain outside. 🌧️😂 Gut feeling: 1. Weather: 0. I have definitely learned from my little mold incident with the Panama Reds. When my feeling says that the right moment has come, I now listen to it. The trichome picture fits for me anyway: predominantly milky and clear, with a few amber. ✨ I am very curious to see how this will manifest later in the effect. There were surprisingly few popcorn buds. And considering what this lady has been through during her life, the result is almost bordering on cheekiness. 😂🌱 Because let's remember: She came into the world with a completely deformed cotyledon. From about the second node, she developed no proper top anymore, but some completely strange stem construct. 😂 Then she was bent over by the wind several times. 💨 She was too dry in between, then again too wet. 🌧️☀️ In addition, she got one of the shadier spots on the balcony. And as if that wasn't enough, at some point little caterpillars probably came by and partially ate away her entire sun sails. 🐛🍃 Passion Fruitz apparently said: “Is that it?” 😂💪 Because at some point she just grew past everyone and ended up at almost 1.70 m. 🌱⬆️ And she practically consisted only of this one completely crazy main stem – in the end, it felt like a single huge, natural lollipop cola from bottom to top. 😂🌸 You really can't call her a little fighter at 1.70 m anymore. So let's say: a fully grown survival artist with absolute boss lady energy. 👑🌱😂 As a reminder: The 🍑 Passion Fruitz 🍑 also stood on the west balcony. In the last two weeks, there were about 6–8 hours of direct sunlight ☀️, before that in the summer about 10–12 hours daily. She was also grown in a 20-liter pot with my self-recycled old BioBizz grow soil. This was amended with garden compost, worm humus, dolomite lime, horn meal, and rock flour. In addition, earthworms ?, microbes, and algae were added. Everything was then watered, left to sit for about a week, mixed again, turned, aerated, and finally supplemented with some perlite. Watering was predominantly done with rainwater 🌧️💧 and, when none was available, with regular tap water. Only around the middle to end of the flowering did a few Plagron products come into play here as well: Alga Bloom from the Natural line as well as Power Buds, Green Sensation, and Sugar Royal. The whole thing was only done twice at the indicated dosage. But back to the harvest! ✂️🍂 So today the 🍑 Passion Fruitz 🍑 was also cut, wet trimmed, and then weighed. On the scale, it landed at approximately: ⚖️ 127 g wet weight And no matter what number is at the end: For a plant that has spent almost its entire life surviving various disasters, the result is impressive to me. 💪💚 And then came the trimming. My goodness, what a pleasure! 😂✂️ The 🍑 Passion Fruitz 🍑 has hardly any sugar leaves. Either there are buds, buds, buds – or a normal little green leaf peeks out in between. 🌸🌸🌸 This makes the wet trim incredibly pleasant and straightforward. The only downside: Where there are hardly any sugar leaves, there is of course also little material for hand charas. 😄 Nevertheless, about 0.2 g of nice sticky charas collected on the scissors. ✨ My little honey pot. 🍯😂 Definitely enough for a tasty joint to try. The remaining visual impressions can of course be found again in the pictures and videos. 📸🎥 And now we come to the point why I even grew this strain again: THE SMELL. 😍🥥🌴 It smells just like last year. Passion fruit, mango, coconut – plus this scent as if you were sitting with a cut tropical fruit on a warm beach while simultaneously having this slightly salty sea air in your nose. 🌊🥥 By now, it almost stinks bestially intensely of exactly this mixture. 😂 And the worst part is: I already know from the last grow how it can taste. That's why I can't help but grin while smelling it now. 😄 The 🍑 Passion Fruitz 🍑 is still one of the very few truly fruity cannabis strains that I personally really celebrate. And this grow has shown me once again why I like this genetics so much. I thought all the time that I had to save her – from storms, from bad weather, from cold, from too much and too little water, and finally also from hungry caterpillars. In the end, she apparently didn't need to be saved at all. She just handled it herself. 😂💪🌱 🍑 Passion Fruitz 🍑 – I love you. 💚 I will grow you again and again and again. And of course, after drying and curing, the final update on aroma, taste, and result will follow here as well. 🥥🌴 In this sense Let IT grow 🌱🌿💚 The madness. 😂
