Just found out about this cool website! Not sure how old these girls are as I received one from an old hippie friend of mine and the others I got as seedling starters! I'll just keep track from now on and update it to flower when I see them hit that point!
Sorry for the lack of information and pictures on this first section of my grow. I didn't know you all existed or I would have done more! Expect a lot more to come now that I know your all here!
Still just filling up the journal with pictures I've taken in the past.. Sorry there's not a lot more.. Really finding this enjoyable and loving being out in my garden! What a great hobby!
Hey everyone, This is my very first grow ever. I'm trying to keep these girls below my fence line are there any tips to keep them down low? nosey neighbors! thanks! Also stop by and check it out I need all the help I can get Please!!!
Hey there 👋
I’d top those beauties so they become bushy instead of tall. They will grow exponentially once in flower, so a bit of lst would do wonders after the topping
Happy Growing 🌱
May 31st : Didn't have time to go out today and take any pics so I went out tonight and got some right after they fell asleep. What beautiful little angels!
June 6th: Decided to add some nutrients yesterday before I watered. The girls seemed to like it, they're all praying today! 😊
Most definitely normal. They shroud themselves in the night it's called Foliar nyctinasty it'sbelieved to conserve energy and help keep core temps warmer during nightfall.
June 7th: We had a Thunderstorm roll through our neighborhood yesterday afternoon, with forty mph gusts and it almost knocked over a few plants, managed to grab what we had and prop up the stems for support. Hoping they weren't too stressed after it all!
Hi there!
The purple stems can be symptom of many things but some deficiencies can cause it, strong light (led atleast) and genetics too.
The plant is looking pretty happy so I'd say dont worry about ot too much yet. if something else starts to show then is time to act.
June 14th: They have grown a lot this last week. Hoping they aren't going to reach too high over our fence. Happy that they've recovered from the thunderstorm the week before.
June 20th: Sprayed them down with seaweed extract solution, seeing if it will help keep them from stretching a whole lot. 🤞💚
July 2nd: Been busy at work with the girls this week, started training the Raspberry Parfait's to reduce their height a bit. Also fed them again with the happy frog fruit and flower!
July 19th: Treated the girls with some seaweed again this morning, the heat has not let up. It has been 105 F for two weeks straight. They are so bushy and tall, can hardly wait for the flowers!💚💚🌻🌼🌻💚💚
July 26th: We had another hot week with a lot of pests popping up. We started using Dr. Zymes and they seem to be responding well. Although ants still seem to be stealing the pearlite and feed that we are giving them. Still anxiously awaiting flowering time! 💚💚🌻🌼🌼🌻💚💚
August 2nd: Hoping that the girls will respond well to some more training that we've done to help them spread out instead of up so much. They're in need of another feeding which will be happening tomorrow. Pre-flowering has begun and I cannot wait until the buds start to form! 💚💚🌼🌼🌼💚💚
Aug. 11th: The girls have started to flower! We were away at the ocean for the weekend and came home to some beautiful flowers starting to form all over them! 💚💚🌼🌼🌼💚💚
Aug. 13th: Used some Dr. Zymes last night before bed to help rid the girls of the bug infestation we found yesterday on our OG Kush and Squirt nearest to it. . Released a ton of lady bugs this morning to help as well!
Aug. 17th: I was doing some hand pruning when we noticed a thunderstorm above. Had to show off these pics I got of our girls in the thunderstorm during a sunset! It was an awesome night! 💚💚🌼🌼🌼💚💚
Aug. 21st: Going to use some Amazing Dr. Zymes to try to keep the bugs away. Have had a lot of ash coming down on our girls from the fires, hoping the break from the high temps will be a silver lining.
Aug. 23rd: The girls are so flowering now and boy do they smell good now! We managed to keep the Squirts fairly short, but the Raspberry stretched like crazy, they have to be over nine feet tall now.
Aug. 27th: Found a lot of Aphids and decided it was time to release these little ladies to help!💚💚💚🐞🐞🐞💚💚💚
Aug. 30th: We have cleared out a bunch of the smaller branches in the middle where they were not getting enough light to flower yet, so they were pretty far behind. Hoping that will help all of the remaining to bulk up nicely! Loving this stage of the grow, cannot wait for the harvest! Happy growing everyone! 💚✌️
Sept. 4th: Haven't updated y'all on the stalks in quite some time. They've gotten bigger and the ones that split in half have become really strong. We propped up the squirts with some sticks and stings to help the branches. Thinking the Raspberries should be fine though because they were split. Considering splitting them all next time! Thanks for stopping by, and happy growing!
Sept. 7th: It was a calm week with high heat last week, the girls seemed to get through it fine. A few close-ups of the Raspberries, one of each, Ran out of light and only was able to get two close-ups.
Sept. 8th: The wind gusts last night were up to 55 mph. Since we watered yesterday the soil was quite loose and we awoke to some of the girls having fallen over! So we have braced them all and they're recovering well. Took the last close-up of the raspberry I didn't get to yesterday, they sure look yummy! ✌️💚
Sept. 12th: A couple of macro shots of each, trying out a new lens. Thanks for stopping by!
Sept. 13th: The girls top colas are starting to bulk up nicely! Had a few close-ups of the squirts.
Sept. 14th: It has been a lot cooler lately with temps dropping under 60 F at night, which is why I think the squirt has been developing some fall colors. It's the smallest of all of the plants and seems to be the furthest along with developing. Oddly enough it seems to be the only branch that has started really turning colors, not sure why that is. We did end up finding some buds that we took off due to pest damage at the roots. Thinking maybe it stressed it out a bit. Hoping removing the affected branches and using The Amazing Doctor Zymes on the soil will help. Going to take an extra day before watering again to see if it helps rid it of the bugs. Close-ups of the Raspberry Parfaits looking to be developing nicely.
Sept. 15th: Tried to get a good shot of the large colas on each plant. And wound up finding a Caterpillar had eaten through the top cola of the smallest Squirt! It was quite large and seemed to be trying to avoid the spray that we applied the night before when also soaking the soil. It not only bored through that bud, but also started making it's way up the middle into the next part, it was definitely hungry. Happy growing and thanks for checking out my grow! ✌️💚
Sept. 23rd: We found more caterpillars and doused the plants with Monterey B.t. organic pesticide and it has worked wonders, finding dead caterpillars and only sickly looking living ones that aren't eating and just wandering around the plant. So glad we used it. Still treating the girls with Amazing Dr. Zymes as well, waiting a few days in between so we do not overdo it. They are coming along nicely and harvest is just around the corner for the smallest two squirts, they have about a week or two left, where as the Raspberries and Kush are going to need three or four more weeks still.
Sept. 24th: Took some close-up shots of the squirts and kush. Thanks for stopping by and happy growing!💚✌️
My experience overall can be best described as an interesting enlightening process. Since it was my first time growing it was definitely a learning experience. From the height being as tall as it was to the high winds in the area making it difficult to keep them from toppling when the buds were reaching full maturity. Thinking it would have benefited from more topping than just the once. The terps that this strain has are exquisite!! I am going to miss walking by them towering over me and just breathing in their berry cream aroma, taking in the sweetness like I had just had some dessert. Really enjoyed this strain and hope to grow it again sometime. Thanks for checking out my first grow 🌼💚✌️
