End of week 1!
Having another go at this Pineapple Express as it's one of my favourites so far. Popped no problem.
Decided to run the small tent for this grow, at least for the first few weeks until it gets a bit crowded then I'll move into the bigger tent.
Decided to use Co2 enhancers for this grow. First time so eager to see the results, if any.
Might experiment a lot with these. Tempted to just grow single stems but we'll see about that 😂.
Apologies, pics aren't great under the light. Really need to buy a descent digital camera 🤔
Let's go!

Never much to say on the opening few weeks.
No problems to report.
First feed I mixed 2L of water with 4ml of Shogun Samurai Coco A&B and 10ml of Shogun Samurai Katana Roots. Each plant was fed around 2 cups on the first feed then up to 4 cups on the second feed.
These will all stay in the small tent for another 1-2 weeks then they'll be moved.
On to next week!
Another good week with some solid growth. Always like week 3-4. It's when they boom!
Upped the watering a bit this week and will continue to do so as needed. Should start to see this Pineapple starting to go into flower next week hopefully.
On to next week!
Another solid week for this Pineapple Express.
Did some defoliating early in the week. Upped the watering a bit too. She's getting thirsty!
Started to show first signs of flower as I thought it would. Bring on the buds!!!
A good week this week. Spent a lot of time with the plants. Pineapple Express has started to flower and has stretched pretty much double in size getting pretty tall 😂
Moved onto boost nutrients this week but slightly dropped the nutrients as I was starting to see slight nite burn. Nothing major!
Removed a few leaves twice this week just to keep those bud sites clear. Can't wait to see if this turns out as nice as my last go. It's already double the size of the last bit the buds tasting so f*cking nice!
Onto next week!
A steady week. Some more bud growth but not much, hopefully this will take off soon! This needs to stop growing in height now 😅 Really curious what would happen if I cut every side branch off? Would I end up with one massive Kola? 🤔 Not going to try it on this grow 😂 Interested to know if anyone else has tried this?
Thursday 3rd - Roughly 1L water plus nutrients. Trimmed some leaves to keep those bud sites clear.
Friday - Did nothing
Saturday - 1L water plus nutrients.
Sunday - Did nothing
Monday - 1L Water plus nutrients. Trimmed again but only the odd leaf.
Tuesday - Did nothing.
Wednesday (Today) - Will be fed 1L of water with nutrients tonight and will see if any leaves need trimming.
I decided with this grow not to train or top bit just defoliate. Want to see how this turns out.
Onto next week!
Another good week. I think this might have almost reached its full height - 1.25m 😭😂. Should start packing on bud weight from now on but from experience my taller plants don't pack much weight on but we'll see!
Had to buy a refill for my Co2 enhancer. Still not sure of these things do anything 😂 supposed to hiss after you shake the bottle but mine just lets out a week fart of a hiss then nothing. Only time will tell I guess!
Still sticking to feeding every 48hours.
Thursday - Fed with nutrients and cut away some leaves.
Friday - nothing
Saturday - Fed with Nutrients.
Sunday - nothing
Monday - Fed with Nutrients
Tuesday - nothing
Today - Will be fed with nutrients and will chop away and leaves hiding the bud sites!
On to next week!
Another week, more growth. Not had as much time this week with work and the lead up to Christmas but made sure to stick to the feeding schedule. It seems to be getting more hungry so upped the feeding to roughly 1.5L. Definitely starting to get that full on pineapple smell I loved from the first time I grew this strain!! Not quite as many photos this week unfortunately.
Thursday - Did nothing
Friday - Fed roughly 1.5L with nutrients.
Saturday - Did nothing
Sunday - Fed roughly 1.5L with nutrients.
Did some minor defoliation.
Monday - Did nothing
Tuesday - Fed roughly 1.5L with nutrients.
Wednesday - Did nothing.
Onto next week! Merry Christmas everyone! 🎅🎄☃️
Merry Christmas growers!!! Been a very good week, had plenty of time with the ladies.
Nothing major to report other than these two LED's aren't enough for this size tent I don't think. Will definitely be upgrading for the next grow!
Thursday - fed roughly 1.5L with nutrients.
Friday - did nothing.
Saturday - fed roughly 1.5L with nutrients.
Sunday - did nothing.
Monday - fed roughly 1.5L with nutrients.
Tuesday - did nothing.
Happy new year growers!!! Back to work and into another lockdown! Going to be another quality year 😂
Nothing major to report, buds are growing and starting to get quite dense now. Still a lot smaller buds than i would like but its expected with the current set up. Upgrade will probably be start of Feb.
Thursday - did nothing
Friday - fed with nutes
Saturday - did nothing
Sunday - fed with nutes
Monday - did nothing
Tuesday - fed with nutes
Onto next week!
Entering the last week and a bit with this Pineapple Express. Got some solid nugs, although smaller than I would like. Had a slight squeeze and man this is some sticky icky! Absolutely stinks! Doesn't quite have the same smell as my first time around but very nice none the less.
Moving on to boost and dragon force for a few days then I will flush for the last week.
Great week, all these buds are just like solid gold balls. I've been flushing for 2 days and will continue for the rest of the week so this will be the last update before harvest!
I fed boost and dragon force for just short of a week before starting the flush.
I will update weights, pictures and reports in a couple of weeks! Thanks for stopping by! Can't wait to to get the new set up sorted and start the next grow(s)!
On to the next grow!
25.01.21 - UPDATE
The pineapple got the chop on Saturday evening (23.01.21). Currently drying in another tent.
Also bought a Mars Hydro TS1000 on Saturday for the next grow 😁 can't wait to use it!!!
Not going to lie, I was disappointed when this shot up to over 1m. Much prefer them smaller than that, just like the first time I grew this strain. Still, I love this pineapple by Barney's 🙌
All in all, not enough fire power in terms of light which is now rectified but 1oz using just a 4l pot is descent enough. This was always an experiment to see what would happen with different size pots. In the end this grew to 1.3m so I suppose if you plants fed well and wants to grow, it will grow however much it pleases no matter the pot 😂 yield is obviously affected. Can't wait to start my next grow with my new mars hydro ts1000.
On a smoke note.. just as smooth as the first time I grew her. Not as much flavour this time unfortunately but we'll see what happens when it's cured for longer.
Barney's this strain really is one of the best out there! 👌🙌: 1:
