Hawii_ReLoaded Heey Growmies and welcome 🤘
Fall comes closer so finally the time has come to start a new journey 😊
Summer was great, only a bit too hot. The jars slowly getting empty, so I’m excited for some new genetics 💪
It’s my second run with Tea Time by Wizard Trees. Definitely in the Top 3 of all my grows! First time Strawberry Lobster, but this genetic is a outstanding work by Cipher with a lot of potential😁
Strawberry Lobster seeds in the pack looked perfectly. Tea Time seeds are light in color with a nice pattern, bought them 2024 at Mary Jane in Berlin, so guess the seeds are already almost 2.5-3 years old.
Tried something new this time for germination and used the CannaKan. Kept the temperature at 23-24 degrees Celsius. Heat mat setting 6 degrees higher at 30. Really cool tool, never had such a fast germination. One seed of Tea Time and two Strawberry Lobster were soaked for 19 hours. Mixed 1/3 tap water with 2/3 distilled water including 2% hydrogen peroxide (3% solution). After soaking removed the water, checked back after 3 hours and suddenly there was already a good sized taproot on two seeds visible. Crazy! Ready for transplanting within 24hours. Only one Strawberry Lobster was ready to transplant after 48 hours. However was more than surprised😁
The seeds were transplanted into the small pots with some Rootwise Complete Microbes sprinkled around the hole. Will keep the temperature now between 25-26 degrees Celsius with permanently lights on until they have broken through the soil surface.
The next update will hopefully include the sprouted seedlings😁✌️
Also next weeks I will provide some details about re-amending the living soil containers, about Tea Time and Strawberry Lobster, the next steps with training during veg stage and some modifications in my grow tents.
Let this journey begin 😎
Thanks for stopping by and stay tuned on the next update 💚🌱

Hey Growmies 👋
All seedlings successfully sprouted. Will start counting the days once all have broken through the soil surface.
Took another 24 hours after transplant until all of them have broken through the soil surface. Used a humidity dome for the first two days to keep the humidity high. Also the lights were on for 24 hours that the seedlings immediately receive light. Low PPFD with 180 for the first two days.
Still surprised how fast the seeds germinated. What I forgot during last week’s update was a small detail which I changed compared to last runs. When seeds are stored in a fringe, bring the seeds to room temperature a day before starting the germination process. Seems logical, but a old experienced friend told me that. Again something learned :)
Seedling soil:
70% BioBizz Light Mix
20% Wormcastings
5% Premium Compost
5% Biochar
Added to the total soil volume of 3.5 liters:
Basalt and Gypsum (1- teaspoon of each amendment)
Watered in with 5% of total soil volume with filtered and dechlorinated tap water. No PH adjustment. This activates the soil microbes and the soil gets alive🤘
Prepared pots were sitting for 7 days at room temperature before the sprouted seeds were transplanted. Sprinkled Rootwise Complete around each seed during the transplant.
Tea Time and Strawberry Lobster looking good, not sure which of the both Strawberry Lobster will make it to the final tent. Will decide by end of next week. They will be transplanted early week 3 to the living soil containers.
Once dry to the touch, I’m watering in small doses (50ml) that the roots actively searching for moisture and without the risk of overwatering the medium. Specially in this stage it’s a high potential risk and slowing down the growth.
Planning to re-amend the soil by tomorrow. Unfortunately, already a week behind, but time is a limiting factor right now. However should not be an issue to have the girls transplanted on time.
Stay tuned on the next update and keep growing💚🤘

Hey Growmies 👋
The little girls looking great and developing pretty vigorously. Really like the strong growth of the larger Strawberry Lobster (middle left). Very promising genetics. She will probably the one which will be chosen for this grow. Tea Time is a little bit behind but she will definitely catch up 😁💪
Still watering in small doses (60ml) every 2-3 days to avoid the risk of overwatering the medium. They really like this small doses and not stopping their growth. They’re getting bigger and almost needed to water them daily over the last days. So it’s time to move them to their final home pretty soon.
Almost a week back re-amended the containers. Kept the moisture level in a medium to lower moisture level during the summer break, but the soil never dried out and the irrigation system was still active. Maintained some airflow in the tent to avoid the risk of mold.
Used following ingredients:
1 1/4 Cups BuildASoil Craft Blend (1 Cup=240ml)
1 Tablespoon (Tbsp) Kelp meal
1 Tbsp Insect frass
1 Tbsp Mustard seed meal
1/4 Tbsp Fish meal
2 Tbsp Malted barley
2 Tbsp Buckwheat crushed
1 Tbsp Basalt
1 Tbsp Gypsum
All ingredients mixed together with fresh worm castings and premium compost (Almicanna). Added also 5% biochar to the total mix. Everything mixed with the existing mulch layer of the living soil containers. Now the soil biology will break the single ingredients down and make everything plant available. Sprinkled some cover crops seeds onto the soil, covered with organic straw and watered in with some goodies. That simple 😊💚
I’m excited and probably moving the plants to their final home within the next days. In the meanwhile cleaning the tent and the water tank. It was really time for a good clean up😂
Stay tuned on the next update and keep growing💚🤘

Hey Guys 👋
The little girls moved to their final home 6 days ago. It’s the third cycle in this containers. The roots were looking healthy and ready to explore the ground.
Have chosen Strawberry Lobster#2 for this run. She showed a pretty vigorously and healthy growth 😊
Sprinkled some Rootwise Complete around the transplant hole. This will help the plant to reduce their transplant shock 😎🤘
If you’re interested in my living soil recipe, check out my diaries Last Dance or Apples & Cherries. On this reports I’ve documented the entire procedure.
The plants looking fine, but Tea Time is not 100% happy. At least it seems like. However someone would say something is wrong with the soil, but all parameters are in check. She puts right now the most energy into her root development. Will love to see her getting ready with an explosive growth. So interesting how different genetics can react in the same conditions.
Topped Strawberry Lobster to avoid that she is shooting up uncontrolled, stretchy behavior. Hope Tea Time will catch up shortly.
Will let them do their thing and keep watching💚😁
Blumat Digitals are in the range of approx. 80 mbar, so not too dry and not too wet. Specially right now when they don’t need much water yet.
Thanks for stopping by and stay tuned on the next update. Keep growing!!💚✌️

Hello Growmies 👋
They’re looking very healthy. Strawberry Lobster is a stretchy genotype and pushing heavy up to the lights. Tea Time looking great and developing a pretty good structure. Topped her yesterday.
Installed another LED the SanLight Stixx which I normally use during the first week, but her tent mate is already much taller so will use this light to increase the light intensity for the smaller Tea Time. Both are receiving now the same intensity 😊👍
Will take some work over the next few weeks to get both on the same level. Both received some daily LST and pinched the single side branches to spread them out and get a even canopy💪
As promised wanted to provide some background details on the both genetics:
Tea Time – Wizard Trees
Genetics: Zkittlez × RS11
Parents: Zkittlez (Grape Ape x Grapefruit) RS11 (Sunset Sherbert x Pink Guava)
Type: Balanced hybrid
Aroma: Sweet candy, tropical fruit, creamy sherbet, with subtle gassy/earthy notes
Appearance: Dense, resin-rich flowers with heavy trichome coverage
Effects: Commonly described as euphoric, uplifting and relaxing
Flowering time: Approx. 8–9 weeks
Overall profile: A flavorful, terpene-forward strain combining the sweet, fruity character of Zkittlez with the creamy, gassy profile associated with RS11.
In short: Tea Time is known for its sweet candy, fruit and sherbet terps, dense frosty buds and a balanced effect that can feel both uplifting and relaxing.
Strawberry Lobster – Cipher Genetics
Genetics: Strawberry Cough × Blue Lobster. Parents: Strawberry Cough (Strawberry Fields × Haze) Blue Lobster (Apples & Bananas × Eye Candy)
Type: Sativa Hybrid
Aroma: Sweet strawberry, ripe berries and candy from the Strawberry Cough side, layered with blueberry, grape, creamy fruit and gassy/diesel notes from Blue Lobster.
Appearance: Dense, resin-rich flowers with heavy trichome coverage
Effects: Uplifting and euphoric
Flowering time: Approx. 8–10 weeks
Overall profile: A complex fruit-forward hybrid that combines the classic strawberry/Haze character of Strawberry Cough with the blueberry-candy, creamy and gassy profile of Blue Lobster.
In short: Strawberry Lobster brings together fresh strawberry and berry terps with blueberry, candy, creamy citrus and subtle gas.
So everything sounds so tasty and the stem rubs are already quite promising 🤩
Thanks for stopping by and see you on the next update 💚

Heyy Everyone 🤘
End week 5 and continued with LST to spread the branches wide out to get a even canopy. Some HST with the side branches of Strawberry Lobster to keep her under control. Very strong and vigorous plant. Outstanding performance!
Within the next days will bend her branches down to bring both on the same level 💪
For Tea Time there is not really any training needed, she spreads out by herself and has a very nice bushy structure, which makes it very easy to handle her😁👍
For preventive pest control will use per plant three different species of predator mites. Additionally will sprinkle some Hypoaspis mites on the soil surface. That will help to keep the fungus gnats population under control and is a great preventive measure in every soil system. Also watering in every few weeks some SF-nematodes. At the moment I am lucky as there are no gnats around 😁
Will reduce tomorrow the light duration from 18 to 16 hours to ensure a smooth transition into flower. Planning to flip to 12/12 within the next week. Will do a small defoliation prior before flip. Quite excited what comes up over the next weeks 😊
Made a small modification to my grow tents with a big impact. Removed the exhausting fan and the carbon filter from the inside of the tent. Integrated a carbon filter box on the outside. This way can easily install or replace the carbon filter during flower when it’s getting stinky 😂
Biggest benefit gaining some extra space on the top to be prepared for a heavy stretch💪
This way can also extend the life time of the filter without the risk of saturation of the activated carbon due to high humidity. Everything above 55% humidity reduces the life time significantly, even I’m using a industry grade filter.
That pretty much covered week 5 😊🤘
Peace and stay tuned on the next update ✌️ keep growing 🌱🌱
Glad to see you back in action. And of course, you’ve got genetics that are totally to my taste again. Good luck, and may the terps be with you, my friend. 😁😉
@Stony_German, thanks, I'm also happy to be back after the summer break. I'm really curious to see what happens here in the next few weeks and if the two will get along in the tent 😁😄
@Hawii_ReLoaded, Hast dir damals echt die Signatur Genetik gesichert :D Nächstes Jahr muss ich auch auf die Marry Jane. Daumen sind gedrückt für den Terp Fruchtsalat 💚
