Once I switched to 12/12 I started adding medi-one nutrients which are pretty light but heavier then the supermax. This is my first grow using liquid nutrients so I didn't want to use anything that i could do too much damage with.
The pink lemonade which is on the left side closest to the camera, particularly started to stretch at this point. Being a hybrid compared to the bakerstreet which is mostly indica I wasnt too alarmed by this.
This is shortly after I moved the plants into 5 gallon pots, I waited way too long to transplant but the nutrients seemed to help them bounced back quickly.
After an infestation of fungal gnats it was clear I had to spray down the girls with 2 chemical solutions. I then had to repeat the process a week later while starving my plants of water in order to truly get rid of the persistent buggers.
I spent this week making sure the fungas nats were well and truly gone and giving them a few days to adjust to the hps bulb before switching to 12/12 flower schedule.

Made a rookie mistake and didnt check on the plants for a few days during the big stretch in between this week and last, resulting in one of my bakerstreet plants growing its 2 main colas too close to the light and causing a bit of heat stress. The bud sites on the other plants look fabulous though.
This is the week I was at when I started this diary so everything from here on out is being reported as it happens.
It just occured to me now that I never mentioned that I topped the pink lemonade and 2 of the bakerstreet plants. This is my first time topping and I wanted to leave 1 to grow regularly so I could see the difference for myself. If you cant tell the 1 untopped bakerstreet is in the bottom right corner of the tent.
Gave the plants their first flush, they took well to it and the buds have fattened a bit, had to tie a few string up on pink lemonade and 1 of the bakerstreet in order to keep branches from leaning against the side of the tent. Hoping to give the plants their final flush in the next day or 2.
Gave the plants their second and what should be their final flush. While they are 8 weeks into flowering the trichomes appear to be mostly clear and I was hoping to wait until some start to turn amber before cutting them down, so I'll give them a few more days.
While I wont jump at the next strain tweed puts up for sale, I am curious what an experienced grower would be able to do with this strain, at the very least this has been a big learning experience and I'll have some decent bud for making hash/oil.
Super happy with this stuff, already grabbed 2 more strains from the breeder but I'm 100% coming back to pink lemonade again, going to try growing them in the summer sometime to see if the consistent warm temps have a positive effect on the yield.
