Hey hey everybody! I hope you all had a fantastic week and I am excited to be back for our latest update which marks the end of week 15 and the beginning of week 16! Now I don’t know if it’s just me or the beginning of the year can be explained off as Mercury being in retrograde (I’m not saying it is, that’s more my wife’s deal- I wouldn’t know either way) but things have been absolutely nuts over here and I needed a little something good to help level out the crazy… I have some awesome things in the mail (still rolling in from the spending spree I went on) but truth be told we were between deliveries, and I needed instant gratification- soo I may have accidentally brushed up against the timer and flipped to flower ( and by accidentally brushed up against, of course I mean I fully intentionally programmed the time to flip to flower in a moment of weakness…🤷‍♂️🏻) Am I sorry? No… will it slightly kill me from an aspect of my struggle with occasional OCD? Oh yes…. Ohhhh yesssss…. That little corner is/was driving me nuts but I figured it was time to just let it do it’s thing- honestly once I noticed I picked a pot that was too small for what I was trying to do, I should have just there in the towel, flipped and taken it as a learning lesson for next time…. Buuuuut alas, I am stubborn and that is NOT how that went down… I’m still excited for what’s to come, we should have some (hopefully) pretty impressive things developing soon so I am stoked! That being said however, I have also had some unimpressive things happen, for instance- yesterday, I go in to feed the girls and my light is off! I (obviously) must have screwed something up when I went to change the light schedule- specifically, due to the fact that there are 9 or 10 possible lighting schedules you can set, I think I had correctly set the on/off times BUUUUUT I think after I had switched to the next programmed on/off times which were incorrect- I noticed when I saw that the lights were off, they should have been on for another three hours (give or take) - so I immediately started messing with the timer and turned the lights back on and continued to tend to those lovely ladies. I then went and made dinner- after, I just had this feeling that I should check on the tent, just in case- and sure enough, an hour after the lights were supposed to be turned off, there they were, on like grey poupon (I apologize I haven’t heard that in like a decade or more, had to

day 30 video day 30 note crossed bridal party x pink paradise day 31 crossed blackberry oreo bigstuff x pink paradise day34 videos of each, a lot of photos. Rh% high I keep my terps non-volatile. Bridal rubbing sugar leafs smells like some sort of candy watermelon, blackberry neat skunky AF sugar leaf rub, pink is nice mellow I will have to check tomorrow. Dr. Thunder very oily with sugar leaf rub I swear you could deepfry with it. It also smells mellow skunky but will check again tomorrow it may have been terps overload on my fingers regarding thunder and pink paradise aromas. Pink caylaxes have shriveled and accepted pollen locations. I just don't think the seeds will be ready when harvesting in a few weeks. Start week 5 tomorrow and I don't think crosses will be ready so I will figure it out. Pink crosses would be fun next round but I have so many more selections to choose from to grow my next 4.Thunder smells like a citrus cleaner, almost pineapple front notes then a full citrus. day35 defoliated like madd. no lie so sticky: 2 fingers lifted a ceramic cup like I was spiderman. 1 finger was a struggle.. science

Day late on the update, pics/vids were taken on time tho just been a crazy week of harvests and trimming and keeping up with these. I transplanted all of them into 1 gallon bags 4 days ago from today. I linked up with Rain Science Grow Bags on Instagram and got them to offer all my followers and friends a discount of 10% off entire order from their site with the code ' bangdang ' so if anyone is in the market for a pot upgrade use that code. I got them in the mail 3 days after I ordered. Reason I went with Rain Science is because they offer identical air flow for rapid growth as the radicle bags, just using a different material and a tighter knit so water doesnt flood out the sides during feeds and when you pick these up when the coco is dry, it wont fly all over the tent like with the radicles. They're the optimal bag for autoflowers especially. These will get transplanted to the 3 gals before the flip and the flower tent is clearing out now. Just have to do a heavy cleanup and rearrange some shit and in they go.

Weeks with so many changes. I've passed all this time finding best configuration nuts, adding and removing from every irrigation in little quantity, from infinite different bottles, but EVERY TIME some miss, some deficiency appear. i mean that Plagron doesn't have ALL the necessaries traces for growth, Advance nutrients so difficult to calibrate, and every irrigation was a nightmare until now now i'm using MEGACROP like base nuts with some booster (if girl tell me need it) and plants restart to growth and being beautiful don't want to pay for water in my nuts, don't want to need every time calcs when i need to change rates anymore now girls looks perfect and i'm feeling stupid 'cause it's so easy to don't have problems Just use MEGACROP ------------------------ Purpp #2 and Gelato FB #1 went in flower during this week i think it will stretch next one others (with same birth) have preflowers

Dec 26/Day 16.25 @5pm: LST begins and at 8pm 1 top leaf defoliated for light penetration. Dec 26 @10pm: Turned bloom lights off (cobs) and left veg lights on. Lowered lighting to 12". Broke her main stalk and taped it. EEEE Giving her a short break from the heat and time to stretch while I LST her. Her humidity levels are up around 54-60% with cobs off and humidifier running. Dec 27/Day 17 @4:20pm: Both cob and veg lights are on again and the light hangs 12" above. Dec 27 @9:30pm: Watered her with 2.5L at a PH of 6.56, soaking the whole pot through for the first time. PH runoff was 6.71 This week, I started watering daily with 0.4L and by week end about 0.75L at PH 6.6-6.7

This is probably the final week of the full tent shots, these were taken a few days ago and at this point there is only 8 plants that have not yet been harvested. I learned a lot this run, tried some new shit, grew out my own crosses, dialed things in by getting rid of the light leaks and adding the heater so it was a success. The new lights out performed my expectation and the leaf strip might become a staple in my garden. The leaf strip made me nervous I wasn't sure how it would turn out but all of my buds are noticeably larger, the lowers are filled out and as dense as the tops and it saved space, water and nutrients. The lights could have contriuted to the larger buds but the other things made it well worth it. I have been vegging out the next run for a while trying to keep them from growing too much in 1/2 gal bags so there should be some interesting plants there stay tuned. * The ones remaining are MC2 MC3 and MC4, MC6 got tossed but I have a cut to run back. MC2 I have grown many of times and reversed for pollen, MC3 and 4 are new. 3 is almost done I should be chopping that one this week at some point and might be more impressive than 2 it has some serious nugs on it. 4 is also solid but taking a little longer than I would like it might be a 75-80 day finish. Next update I will have some good pics of at least 2 and 3, I am going to wait until I am ready to harvest before I bring 4 into the studio.

22.12.Day 85 Blüte 44 von 63-70. Hallo Leute. 🤗 Eine bisher sehr zufriedenstellende Sorte . Resistent, sieht gut aus, Duftet so süß! Aber nicht nur . Wie im Bonbonladen. Viele Nuancen drin. Auch natürlich dieser Weed Geruch, den wir alle mögen. Definitiv hat sie ein paar burn Zeichen. Leicht, aber fast überall. Dafür sind die Knospen ziemlich hart, kleben und werden dicker. PLAGRON hat hier ein Wort mitzureden. Ich könnte ja weniger geben, aber nö. Power Buds Contest heißt es. Nicht grüne Blätter Contest. ( Aber Mal ehrlich, Herbstfarben sind schon schön ) Noch mindestens 19 days in denen die Candy Rain Knospen mästen können. Danke Leute fürs Lesen, liken Kommentieren. 25.12. 9 Tage Dünger, dann 7 Tage Wasser, und schon ist Ernte. 26.12. oh Mann , wenn nicht 63 -70 Tage dranständ, dann würde heute ein Teil gehen.... Aber, der Züchter weiß es am besten. Vertraut denen ruhig. Die kennen sich bestens aus. Tja die Knospen: Reich bedeckt mit Trichomen Kaum, bis keine Viecher. Fest wie ein Tennisball,die oberen + canope. Die unteren mangels Licht natürlich nicht. Das gibt eine Stufen Ernte. Meine Nase wird vom Geruch reich beschenkt. Olala ( ⬅️ Ein Ausruf der Begeisterung ) 👍 Later Oh, die Knospen werden so schwer, das einige untere Arme umkippen. Muhaha geil... 28.12. Blüte day 50. Es gibt nochmal Dünger. Sie wird dann Blüte day 67 geerntet. Der Größte Teil wenigstens. Noch ist sie durstig.

Started one seed of Cherry Bomb popped in 48 hours. The seedling took off from there. I just used tap water and paper towel to germinate. We are at 7 days today, and she is looking good. Picked up a 32x32x63 tent for this grow. Currently I have her in my aero garden which has done wonders for me, and my hydro set up. As she grows I will move her into a 5 gal bucket for hydro. We will use a 450w viparspectra LED for this grow. I am using a small amount of nutes in the reservoir, as always I am using general hrdroponics flora trio cal mag, and silica.

The frostiest plant I have ever grown, I will enjoy watching my growmies do the same. Buy this seed and share it. It is a wonderful cultivar. I had two disteonct phenos, both absolutely gorgeous and unique
