Tangerine Dream 2019

3lementa1 No pictures from weeks 2-4. They stayed in the cloning dome until they were too tall, then I set my closet up with the 1000w and the closet in the spare room with my 400w.

3lementa1 Steady growth. I probably topped and transplanted this week into 1L containers. The small 2 plants would stay in these containers but the big 2 outgrew them quickly.

3lementa1 Steady growth

3lementa1 From this picture, it looks like I would have topped a week or two prior to this and were likely transplanted just before or just after that.

3lementa1 I re-potted the 2 bigger ones but I left the smaller ones in 1L pots

3lementa1 Didn't have any pictures of this week but growth continued to explode.

3lementa1 I saw some white dots and I was worried there was some kind of infestation. The grow area wasn't really isolated from the rest of the house so I think it was just dirt but I wanted to be safe so I sprayed then with insecticidal soap and rinsed them off in the tub.

3lementa1 No pics from this week

3lementa1 I was growing in closets with the doors open - not a very sealed or sterile environment. I saw some dirt/debris on the leaves so I gave them all a preemptive bath with insecticidal soap just in case it was an early sign of an infestation

3lementa1 I did a lot of low-stress training and I think I topped twice. The smaller plants had no training at all though. In retrospect, I should have re-potted them.

3lementa1 These guys definitely grow like sativas. Very strong growth and a big stretch.

3lementa1 I stripped the leaves off the bottom. You can see the places where I topped the plants. The colas all ended up around the same height with the LST and were all developing really well. Lots of bud sites.

3lementa1 Big white pistils coming out on all plants. They look most impressive on the single colas of the small plants, but there are plenty forming on the big plants as well.

3lementa1 Leaves started turning yellow. The colas were looking really good, even on the smaller plants. The colas on the big plants are impressively big.

3lementa1 Some of the colas on the lower branches started getting so heavy they started falling over. The colas on the small plants were really fattening up.

3lementa1 The buds were looking really good. It's always hard to tell when to harvest. I was actually out of the country so I had to get my roommate to cut them down at her discretion. It ended up being at about 8 weeks. I think she chose well.

3lementa1 They grew big and strong in the 5 gallon buckets under the 1000w light, and stayed scrawny in the tiny pots under the 400w light. Overall I found them resistant considering it was just a really simple closet grow with a bunch of fans and no real exhaust. The buds were good and lasted me a long time. It didn't kick my ass quite as bad as the Super Lemon Haze I'd grown before but it was still pretty strong with a heady Sativa kick that was sometimes a bit much after a while if you like to smoke throughout the day. Overall, a very good producer with a strong effect. Everything I've gotten from Barney's Farm (CBD Blue Shark, Super Lemon Haze, Tangerine Dream) has been great.
