tony_kiffton Day 25: The Red Velvet has now gained a lot of size and leaf mass. The new growth is developing strongly – what started off as a rather leisurely pace has now turned into pleasantly rapid growth.
Day 28: The Red Velvet continues to grow vigorously and is now gaining significant height. The main stem is developing nicely dominant, while the new growth is pushing up strongly.

The plant has stretched to just under 70cm...
The flowering phase has definitely begun.
Next week, nice weather again.
tony_kiffton Tag 49
Height 85 cm - Soil still has enough power...
Outdoor there's only regular water (no adjustment of calcium & magnesium).
Smell fruity and kushy :-)
Night temperatures consistently in single digits - 50° North
Low to no pest pressure!
Predatory mites are hanging in the plant...
tony_kiffton Day 61 - beautiful purple leaf colors and noticeable mass buildup of the main cola
Day 67
No mold, no crawlers...
Today it's windy and a bit sunny -
The slim girl smells really delicious

Ordentlich vom Wind durchgeschüttelt, aber sie steht noch
Die Pflanze zeigt inzwischen eine ausgeprägte dunkelviolette bis bordeauxrote Färbung. Die Blüten haben sichtbar an Struktur gewonnen. Besonders erfreulich ist das sehr leckere cremige, süß-fruchtige Aroma, das inzwischen deutlich wahrnehmbar ist😃
@tony_kiffton, Beautiful to hear you say that! I (an enthousiast but not yet an employed grower for paradise seeds)grew Red Velvet myself and it went really well if i do say so myself! Again good luck!!
@paradiseseeds, Thanks ... I'm looking forward to it. It was actually planned as an outdoor grow. But we had a lot of smoke here from a large fire in the High Fens - the smoke blew right to us and I brought the plant inside and am continuing indoors now 😀
Von Floragard gibt es auch Grow-Erde, die schon Perlite enthält. Ich finde die extrem gut, und preislich ist sie auch absolut in Ordnung: 70 Liter kosten bei Dehner circa 20 Euro. Es gibt auch eine organische Variante, die ich als Nächstes gerne mal testen möchte, allerdings leider nur zum Bestellen.
Aber ich meine nur: Die Erde, die du jetzt benutzt, funktioniert ja offensichtlich auch prächtig, wie man sieht. 😄
Alles Gute weiterhin!
@tony_kiffton, what bothered you about the Growmix blend? Many paths lead to Rome, and I think every Floragard soil is better than what some people do to their plants – sometimes maybe even unconsciously. 😅
@Kushycat, Visually, I can better assess the rose soil in terms of moisture and weight...
I got used to it :nixweiss:
A bit weak on the chest...
Always hard to judge with just one plant in the tent :homie:
I was able to go almost to the end with the rose soil without fertilizing...
