Week 2 - I transplanted her into a pot. She has some brown spots on her first leaves that I think are from nutrient deficiency. I have been spritzing her with a bit of nutrients. She is growing well so far.
Week 4 - She growing well but I think there is some nitrogen deficiency. I was struggling with too much nitrogen in my previous grows and narrowed it down to the soil mixture. This time I left out many of the amendments in my soil mixture and now I am getting yellowing lower leaves. I am trying to slowly add amall amounts of nutrients and see what happens. She has been moved into a bigger pot and into the tent with LED lights. She was also FIMmed.
Week 5 - Despite my efforts to control the nutrient issues, she is getting lighter in colour; looking a little yellow. 😡 She is still growing though. I wonder how well she would grow if the nutrient balance was perfect. I will continue to make small adjustments and hope for a happy medium.
Week 6 - I'm still trying to find a happy medium with the nutrient issue. My concern is that I am going to give too much and be back to square one with nutrient toxicity. She seems to be growing well and healthy otherwise.
Week 7 - Ther is good growth and she is drinking well. The lower leaves have some yellowing so I have added more calcium to the diet. She went into a bigger pot and is now showing a few brown spots on the upper leaves. 😡
Week 8 - She has a few yellow/brown spots but they haven't gotten any worse or spread. The new growth looks good and she is growing taller and filling out. She is drinking and eating well.
Day 56 - She is looking better and growing well. I am just giving her 3 liters of RO water so that she will be ready to have clones taken at the end of the week.
Day 63 - She is growing and drinking well. I took four clones from her after these photos were taken. I haven't taken clones before, only used the tops of plants I had topped so hope this goes well. I gave her 3 liters of RO with some nutrients to help her recover.
Day 66 - She's recovering well from the removal of clones. She continues to grow out and up and drinks alot. I gave he 3 liters of RO and more nutrients. I'm waiting to see if the clones take off before I decide to put her into flower.
Day 69 - I took off some of the large fan leaves that were blocking light penetration. She got 4 liters RO as she is still dringking alot.
Day 73 - She's recovered well from the leaf and clone removal. I gave her 4 liters of RO with some nutrients. The tent is getting full and the ladies are getting tall so I have decided to switch them over to 12/12 light/dark schedule and hope for the best. 😁
Day 76 - I watered her again and gave her a bit of "compost" tea. (bat guano, worm castings and molasses) She's growing well but has alot of purple stems. I hope there isn't an issue that will affest the overall yield or quality. There isn't any other indication of deficiency or toxicity though.
Day 78 - First week of flower. She is growing taller everyday and is showing lady parts so that is good. She has some purplish stems, just like my other Pineapple Express but not as much as the GG#4's I am growing. I don't know it this is genetics or a deficiency so I am adding some Magnesium and Calcium in the mix. I watered her with 3 liters of RO and some nutrients.
Day 80 - She's growing fast and drinking alot. Starting to show pre-flowers too. I need to do some defoliation soon but I am waiting to see if my clones will survive, in case I need to take some more.
Day 84 - I did some lower branch, bud and leaf removal. I also took some clones with hopes that I can have some success this time. I hope the light will have better penetration and help with a bigger yield. She is still growing fast and looks healthy.
Day 87 - She's drinking a ton so I have given her another 4 litres of RO today. Otherwise there are no signs of difficulties and she is flowering.
Day 90 - She continues to grow taller and drink well. She recovered well from defoliation so I did a little LST to open her up a bit more. I gave her another 4 liters with her nutrients.
Day 94 - Still some upward growth and the flowers are forming.
Day 97 - I watered her with 4 litres of RO with nutrients and tea. No signs of nutrient issues that I can see.
Day 116 - She is slowly bulking up. I really should be flushing soon as they say she's an 8-9 week flaower. I hope that she bulks up some more before the harvest.
These pictures are kind of crappy but it does look like there are some more cloudy trichomes and the odd amber one. I gave her 2 litres of RO for now. I don't want her to get too wet as I plant to harvest her as soon as she looks ready and I want her to be dry at that time.
Day 133 - I took some last picks before putting the ladies into the dark for a couple of days. I would have liked a little more time before harvest but the trichomes are ready. There will be a smoke report after the dry and cure.
Final yield was pretty good at 3.79 ounces. The smoke is tasty and the feeling is happy, giggly and talkative. The pineapple smell comes through as soon as you open the jar. 😋
