We had some big thunderstorms last week so i had to move the plant in and out for protection, next week the weather report its more rain high temperature but no storms. Yesterday i transplanted from my 1lt (1/4gal) pot to a massive 20 lts (5 gal) pot full with my special soil. hope to really start seen some big grow later this week. i'll update on Sunday. Sunday update still have tropical storm every other day and I decided to leave her outside no matter what, so far so good. four days since new big pot and everything seems fine.

I was worried from the repotting of last week but she looks so happy in her new home. tropical storms are still a problem but my soil and drainage are working very good. yesterday I applied superthrive half a the recommended dosage with a spray, I'm going to apply it again full dose next week. like always new pics and update on Sunday monday update: female pistils are starting to appear and the growing is at full speed, luckily storm are over for the time being and full summer sun its shinning. but I had 1 BIG problem, y found some of the leaves eaten and yesterday I catch some kind of Caterpillar eating the leaves. pictures of the felon are posted

first month complete, a the most difficult week yet. I have some surprise storm and some caterpillars infestations so I had to cut some of the eaten leaves and move the plant to a new area a little more protected from the storm. I am impressed with the growth this week she nearly double her size in 7 days. I'm seeing some preflowers and pistils and I was thinking of topping her but after eventful week I consider let her grow naturally like always I'll make an update on sunday.

she is growing but i think she is going to be a small plant, so on Friday I cut the top of the center branch to see if I can make her a little more bushy. weather its getting hotter a the sun very intense ge had +9uv index last week but she seem happier than last week when the caterpillar attacked her. for what I read online she will be ready to harvest in 4 more weeks im hopping to get 2 ounces. I'm full of work at the time so next update its in 7 days

I'm been busy last few weeks, so didn't pay her much attention, she's not growing much but she's developing some tiny 14 flowers we still have some 3 more weeks to harvest. I read that candy cream doesn't grow much outdoors and doesn't yield much. I think this its the case

Candy Cream seems to be an 8 to 9 week flowering strain, so if your one is only 3 weeks into flower you have 5 to 6 weeks to go! Get a mini microscope from eBay for about $5 to check; can’t tell from your photo but it can’t be ready yet. Amber trichomes turn up on the sugar leaves first usually, then on a calyx. You should have mostly milky trichomes if you see amber ones on the sugar leaves.

plot twist. she was an AUTO seed. I was wondering why she was so fast and as I got my seed as a gift from a friend I decided to call him to check the package, he confirmed that it was a seedsman candy cream auto, and because of that i decided to harvest at 8 weeks old . it was a very fun and educational grow I've learned a lot even though i do grow other kinds of plants she give me 8g of dry flower but its ok for my first grow. I've already purchased my onw seeds so in a few weeks im going to star another growdiarie
