LST tonight to really shape the plants, this is what’s great about growing photos you have time to LST and prepare for flower.
I can see the Tropicana has the kind of structure I love my plants to have, a slightly larger internode space means less trim job, more buds! That’s my guess anyway XD
Now we just praying for those shades of pink...🙏🏻

End EC2.0 PH6.0
Getting ready to flower these girls want a little more height, I can wait till this weekend to flip the switch. May swap in the HPS before hand and run 400w for 18/6 for a few days then go 600w 12/12
__________________________________
11th September Day 47
HPS set at 400w till flowers appear and stretch over then I will turn up to 600
2L to each pot, no run off guessing that’s a good sign. Next feed if I put another 2L through and see no run off next time I will put another 500 and upping to 2.5L every 3 days.
When they’re budding up and drinking lots every 1-2 days

1ml/L Calmag

PH5.9 EC1.7
UPDATE: Height of plants on day 49 was 22cm, lights went off for 20hrs to account for the loss of 6hrs.
The 12/12 Light cycle starts... Can she produce in 55 days or is this 55 days from stretch which brings us closer to 70 days. Im hoping the former...
As we enter flower there’s some points to note.
For the next 2-3 weeks I will be shaping the girls to try and maximise bud size.
•First 2 weeks since flip to flower involves removing branches.
• Last week when the flowers appear at the crown is when I will strip the plant of her leaves.
And no more “Veg” nutrients needed.
Problem with trying so many new Products, ideas and technique’s is that you forget stuff that worked. The age old saying of “don’t fix what’s not broken”
So on that note, a PK boost as soon as we see those flowers is something I’ve left out on all my recent organic grows.

This feed I’ve added a little shot of big bud at 0.5ml/L the 1.9EC is on the limit... the tips are showing a tiny bit of yellow, telling me that I’m on the edge of cliff. I’m waiting patiently for my order of Big Fruits to arrive so I can start hitting them hard with that.

__________________________________
1st September Day 67
Was pretty tired and then stoned before feeding today.. forgot to PH first feed to Tropicana girl so I frantically PH adjusted the rest of the Nute mix I already had for the rest of my girls to 5.9 then flushed her with about 4x what I normally feed she had 10L of nutrients go through her at 5.9. So hopefully that should rectify my F up.

4th October Day 70 (Week 11)
All my lady’s got a trim today... took only leaves that were shading bud sites. It looks like I have about 1 more solid week of bud formation, then expect them to start fattening up by week 13. I will then hit them with another PK spike for the home stretch.
Substituted till Humic Acid plus and Big Fruits till they arrive.

Stretch has clearly stopped I don’t expect there to be much more height now. We are in full flower leaves are looking a nice shade of green and that’s from the top to the bottom.
Now it’s time to lower the light to maximize on bud development. I will lower it to 17” (from highest point of canopy in the center)

I definitely want to lose a bit of green from the leaves ASAP.
I’ve backed off the MagneCal+ and More PK as they both have extra N and Mag, I don’t want that now.
Im using some canna PK to try and offset the Nitrogen for a few days.
I’ll have to stop using MagneCal all together.
Praying for the big fruits to arrive, I realise how big it makes my fruits now that I’ve run out :(

Big Fruits has arrived!!
Huge thank you to Enrico from Green Buzz Liquids!!
Green Buzz Liquids has been perfecting an organic mix suitable for “Tomato’s” for over 20 years. They have been on the market to consumers since 2014 in Germany, now we are all lucky enough to have access!
I highly suggest switching over to this nutrient line if you’re in coco or soil!! For so many reasons, it’s organic is the main thing, good for you, the planet, and your plants especially, price... the list goes on.
If you already have some additives that’s fine, speak to me directly if you want any advice or you’re thinking of purchasing I can try and help you decide what actually need.
I priced up a few of the competitors nutrients and for what you get in each bottle of green buzz liquids I’m saving loads! they go much further so is more are more affordable in the long run! you’re not required to feed every watering with the base products in soil and even in coco (if you build up a good microbe colony).
You can use my code Pharmaz which gets us 10% discount, If you use my code it gives me discount when I purchase.
I swear by this product!
For the feed today, all girls got 2.5L of mix below, with some much loved Big Fruits. Let’s all see how much swell we get this week XD

2ml/L Organic Bloom Liquid

Still got 2 weeks of solid bud swell :)
3 weeks left in her, now just hoping for some nice Lower development. ✌️

Noticing a little tip burn, I’m thinking that could be from not using any nutrients last feed and causing a little imbalance in the medium.
I’ve added the SF2000 to the tent now, HPS on 400w,
On the same timer, both roughly 17” from canopy.

1st November Day 98 (Week 15)
She was getting so heavy 6 of her branches snapped under the weight soon as I picked her up.
The stench is unreal, Tropicana poison heads you know what I mean... your typical high school punch smell spiked with some LSD, just the smell alone has me tripping!
She’s getting the chop this week, no cuttings taken unfortunately.
Anyhow this beauty of this plant made it successfully to harvest without any major issues.
She is very resilient, takes high EC levels like a champ, Ph swings, general common grower errors... She just laughs them off!! Top strain
**APPEARANCE**
She was to be a perfect representation of the Tropicana Poison F1 FV.
The colours are impeccable she had a serious depth of colours throughout flower.
Sometimes I forget that our most desired plants are in fact just flowers, they have a period where they are in full bloom.
The outer shades are of brown, orange, darker purpled and greens. But when you break her fruits open you reveal the full extent of her colours! Amazed!!
**AROMA**
When she was finishing off and at the start of the drying period I could get a strong sense of Tropical fruits you couldn’t say it smelt of anything in particular.
But it has a full package of fruitiness with a hint of gas and liquorice. Very delightful aroma to go with her beauty.
**FLAVOUR**
With the taste. She is carrying most of the Aroma with it but with an added skunkiness to the aftertaste. Pleasant earthy notes lingering in the background of the overall taste!
I would have to try Durban poison now as I can’t say I’ve tried that I’ve seen pictures of a Durban poison about 15year ago and I was amazed by the beauty of her! I was told the taste is where she stands the strongest...
**EFFECT**
A real winner for effect, she will leave you with a creeping stoned effect. At first you can feel a euphoric effect that leaves you happy and content...
But as you smoke more and more, the real power of this strain is unleashed!
She’s great for medicinal
Helps well with anxieties, which are present in this current state of decay!
With all the 3 Sweet Seeds strains I have experienced top notch genetics!! I will definitely be using them again, Apolo & Jayyp you are Awesome Thank you!!
@Smokwiri, Wow, That’s the second time then!
A day after they advertised here I went to Seedsman to order... they were sold out!!
Very Lucky I got some I guess, Ty Sweet Sweeds
@PharmaZ, Hi buddy! On the question of the substrate, I do not know exactly why it is a secret from the breeders themselves.
As for the EC question, I personally recommend an EC around 1 in growth and 1.2- 2.0 in flower.
When the harvest is next, the EC should be decreased below 1.4. (2 weeks before)
Sweet smokes,
Apolo
The last week before harvest, the EC should be at 0.
Sweet smokes!
-Apolo
@Sweet_Seeds, Hey Apollo, hope all is well... just some quick questions, What substrate do you guys for the original clones of this strain?
And last thing, if you guys are Using nutrients what is the max EC do you feed late flower?
I’m loving this strain so far, I’m seriously considering monstercropping this girl and cloning her!!
Thank you,
PharmaZ
@PharmaZ, It happens, I've had some quality cultivars that produce some top shelf meds that flop all over the place. You're doing great work over there! Kudos to you!
hi, i am devin from mars hydro who want to invite you to be our tester, do you have interest
