So here we are again.
Welcome to my another grow-diary. 4 flowers, two strains, feminized seeds.
This time the germination was difficult. I dont know why, but from 6 seeds (3x TD, 3x RD) only 4 came out and very very slowly.
Maybe they were too old. For some seeds it takes more than a week to show up first root.
12 hours in the water, dark place (22C,6,3pH), then wet germinated fabric, 27C, 6,3pH.
But otherwise, they look nice and happy now, maybe a bit slower, but I dont care much- they make me happy:)
All things goes weel and ladies looks happy enough:)
I started with Bio Grow - 1 ml/l for each with every watering.
I usually watering every second day with 1/2 l of water to each, with pH around 6.3.
Jungle business here!
Starting of flowering- pre-flowers everywhere.
Im a bit afraid, that they will overgrow. Now they can maximum grow higher 50 cm plus, more than 50 will cause burning.
I topped them many times during the vegetative phase, except one.
Im also still doing some LST. They keep growing, but two days back it seems to be slower, so I hope, that it will slow down now.
I also did some defoliation during the whole period of vegetation and now also sometimes. They have many many leaves...
Otherwise they look very happy and strong by my opinion.
I hope I will be able to finish this...please keep your fingers crossed, if you read it:)
Thanks!
Growing stoped about 5 days ago, finally. Now they seems to be focused only on flowering, as the buds grows every day.
Red Dragon have some very nice sticky sugar resin...
They looks happy and healthy. Hope to keep it like that:)
Until next week...
Buds keeps swelling, we still have planty of time- 34 days from switch to 12/12 light period, but I started to count the flowering 10 days after the switch, when they actually began to massively flower, so the day 24 of flowering is right.
I hope that now it will keeps swelling and swelling and swelling and swelling and swelling.....and swelling.
They still looks happy, Im keeping them a bit thirsty sometimes. Watering every third day 2 litres each, sometimes every second day, if I dont want them to be thirsty.
But they want lot of nutrients- they dont have problems with bigger amounts of nuts.
Ladies starting to smell really nice:)
Hope to keep them happy...until next week:)
40 days on 12/12 light period, 30 days of full blooming.
Buds keeps swelling:) Even a bit more sugar, especially on Red Dragon. Odour starts to be on full power.
Tangerine Dream smells very sweet, Red Dragon more woody,
I gave them few waterings with max doses of nutes (Grow-3ml/l, Bloom-3ml/l, Topmax-2ml/l)- they seems to like it, but soon I will slow down with nutes again and quit it completely later.
I am pleasantly surprised, that there is no problem with the feeding and watering, I hope it will kepp like this:)
Both of the strains have many many trichomes and of course very sticky.
I think they still have lot of time, we will see...
Otherwise they look very happy.
O_o Until next week!
Looking really good, full of resin...some colours showed up, I think we are maybe after the half of the flowering.
I think one more week and I will start with decent flush. Defintelly I will lower the nutrients soon.
Day 55 12/12 and trichomes 80% milky (average).
No nutes now.
I will do flush in next days.
Smell is strong, buds are very sticky. I did almost complete defoliation on day 55.
Sooon soon sooon.....:)
Two plants of Tangerine Dream harvested on day 62 of 12/12 light period.
Buds are big, hard and very very sticky, full of trichomes with resin.
Smell is strong, fresh, citrus, very pleasant for me:)
Now drying in dark and cold room with 17 C.
Looking forward to taste it...
Two plants of Red Dragon harvested on day 60 of 12/12 light period.
I had two phenotypes of this strain- one very sativa, with smaller buds, not so hard.
Another pheno was way more to indica with bigger and harder buds.
Both have strong smell after some decent curing, taste is very woody, like forest, herbal:) smell is like cheese with herbs...
Looking forward to taste it...
Very strong high, leave you in euphoria and giggly. Nice smoke, taste is very earthy, woody, like forest:)
Definitelly good smoke:)
Buds are more like sativa- not so hard and not so many, but full of trichomes, thats for sure:)
Yield is not mega, but the smoke is quality, so Im happy with the outcome.
After proper drying and some decent curing I can say, that this strain is delicacy. It smells like cheese, very strong and very exotic smell.
I want to try Barneys farm tangerine dream but I haven't been able to get my hands on any. I ended up getting some from growers choice though and they've been great. Love the smell and taste of that strain. Good luck with your grow.
@indoorontario, Thank you. I have tried Tangerine Dream in Amsterdam and its pretty good and strong strain. I hope, that they will not overgrow, Im very limited and they can grow to maximum height of 90-100 cm.
