When I began the contest I had only grown Magic Melon once before (last winter), it grew in an 18 litre pot, became around 4 feet tall, and completely filled a 3'x3' tent. A friend of mine successfully grew a seed I gave them this summer in a container about 4 litres and the plant was considerably smaller. The fact that it can be successfully grown in less than 250mL is astonishing, I have buds from the one grown last winter that are bigger than the can I grew this one in. Harvested 91 days from sprout.

This was a great experience and something I have looked forward to for 19 YEARS!!!!!! Thats right, my very first attempt was a summer when I was 14 in a backyard with mediocre results and no flower but that was my very first grow ever. 19 years later its fully legal and here I am getting 36 grams of decent bud grown by the sun in a very questionable cannabis climate!!! NO COMPLAINTS HERE!!!!!!!😋 This diary was never about getting giant buds or the best flowers but more about I'm growing ORGANIC PINEAPPLE EXPRESS IN MY BACKYARD literally a dream come true, to do this worry free, 100% legal. As far as the grow goes I will certainly have some new strategies next year, I think a plastic pot would have been better to keep the heat in at night time with the cool temps earlier on in summer. Maybe even some minor insulation would be a good idea?!?! I'll invent the canadian outdoor cannabis pot hahahah I did not scrog the lady but I did use some yoyos to pull down the outer branches to help the flowers get even light. Will try folair feeding as well next time. I also dried her outside! and trimmed her outside to, she got the full outdoor experience. I just cut the plant and hung her under the deck, worked out good as it was a fairly dry week and she dried out fairly slowly, a little quicker than the tent plants. Now in about a week or 2, maybe a small cure at least first I will be doing the end game goal, smoking endless doobies of pineapple express while watching pineapple express!!!!!!!!! Thanks everyone for following along, next year I hope to double this number!! Just for the challenge 😎

End of Week 5 Brewed a nice veg-specific compost tea and the ladies loved it. Trying to make sure the soil stays nice and moist to keep the microbes happy and letting the top 3 cm of the topsoil dry before each watering. The ladies have gained some momentum and they're growing at a rapid pace . I also performed some HST by tucking fan leaves and softly pinching and bending some of the stems to open up the canopy whilst keeping the stress at a minimal. Pest Report: Didn't have much issues up until now... I noticed about 5-10 tiny little thrips on some of the leaves and I applied an organic microbial insecticide (Agro Organics Bio-Insek, Google it!) that seems to have taken care of the problem. Now I will apply it weekly to make sure those buggers are ELIMINATED.

Man, it's been a crazy week. These past few days have been brutal – seriously cold with this crazy humidity. I don't know about you, but I'm sick of the chills and the way my skin feels all sticky. It's been a struggle, but I'm finally getting on top of things. I think I've figured out a good routine to dry things out around here, so hopefully, I'll be feeling a lot more comfortable soon. My gas tax plant's looking absolutely incredible. The buds are gonna be huge, I can already tell. It's got this insane amount of crystals too, which is always a good sign. I love the shape of the leaves, they're so tiny. And guess what? I've got over a hundred seeds from that plant, so I'm definitely going to grow a bunch of them and see which ones turn out the best.

another resin monster from seedstockers, with a very special scent, full of flavors! grinded it smelled like peppermint, and vaped it has a great sweet creamy taste!

Niente vendemmia purtroppo perché qualcuno si è divertito un tantissimo a rubarmi 9 delle mie piante....non c'è la faccio ragazzi mi sto per sentire male...dovevano essere tutti i miei risparmi per durare a fumare fino a marzo....ora non so come devo fare senza erba!!!! Sono in difficoltà sul serio! Ho speso molto per fare tutte queste piante e in mezz'ora mi hanno rubato tutte le mie bimbe!!! Spero il karma glie la farà pagare molto cara!!!!

Stretch has stopped so I did a heavy defoliation and lollipop on day 21. No signs of stress after.

📆 Semana 10 La Sticky Queen alcanza su momento perfecto. Los tricomas muestran el punto ideal, los cogollos están firmes y llenos de resina, y el aroma se presenta en su versión más auténtica: dulce, afrutado y limpio tras el lavado. Ahora toca cortar con calma, mantener buena ventilación y dejar que empiece el secado que definirá su carácter final. ✂️ Momento clave: precisión, calma y máxima calidad. ¡Seguimos creciendo fuerte 💪!

What I can i say other than Ethos Genetics kicks ass. I love growing their gear and will continue for as long as I can. This girl here took very well to training and feeding increases. Her terpene profile early on was undeniably Strawberry but gradually took a citrus dominant turn with some notes of pine. She was a moderate strechter and produced nice full trichomes that I'm sure would give a great return if pressed. The buds themselves are extremely sticky,pungent and dense. I used CX Horticulture and did what most dont do and used the recommended feeding chart 😲🙈🙊. I am glad to say she took it like a champ and for future grows of this strain I know I can up my ppm/EC next time. I yielded 6.25 ounces off of a 10 gallon pot and I know that's not impressive but it's my first time growing in a pot that big so many things learned. I will say after looking at the rootball I could have vegged for several more weeks but again knowledge is power and I've gained some 😉

Some Fan leaves started showing some nute burn marks so i removed them . She is still growing pretty fast. I hope it stays like this.

Buds look so frosty this week. She has a little bit of curl in her leaves and also some lighter spots on the edges of some of the big fan leaves. But overall she is looking great and her leaves are so frosty very nice. She has a very nice diesel smell but not as strong as my lemon berry haze plant but it is there, also there is some pine i think and also some sweetness. Very nice watermouthing nice. Thanks for checking 😋

Shes 82 inches tall and we just hit 14/10 light cycle. I noticed shes starting to put out more pre flowers so I think this will mark the end of veg. She got some rain water this week and a nice strong batch of compost tea. I wanted to get a preventative mold spray on the plant so I mixed of some aloe with a little baking soda and let it soak in. I followed with a foliar spray of the compost tea, also trying to remove the honeydew on the leaves cause by spotted lanternflys in the maple tree above. It was not very affective and will need to wash it off this week, and also think of a way to get it to stop fast because it looks like the plants are transitioning into flower. I'm seriously moving the pots somehow to a safer location.

Blasted a small amount just to see ...💎 Started to chop at 8 weeks I'm on plant 9 of 19.... 🍊🍊🍊🍊🍊🍊🍊🍊🍊 😈

Hi alle zusammen 😉 Nachdem Sweet Seeds mir 3 Sorten gesponsert hat hab ich noch eine 4 Sorte dazu gekauft weil ich 4×4 in 7 Liter machen wollte .Am Abend des 28.10.24 wurden die Samen in Easy Plug's gesteckt und mit einer leichten Nährlösung angegossen.In der Lösung befand sich Hesi Wurzel Complex & Hesi Superfit , dazu noch eine 3% Wasserstoffperoxid - Lösung damit die Babys es ein wenig leichter haben ! Nachdem alle Gekeimt sind außer eine Gorilla Girl wurden sie gleich in den Easy Block umgesetzt .Schlau wie ich war habe ich gleich am Anfang einen Ersatz Samen mit angesetzt (Sweet Seeds S.A.D Fast Version)Dieser ersetzt jetzt die fehlende Gorilla Girl.Leider hab ich vergessen mehr Leistung mit der Lampe zu geben , worauf sie ein wenig in die Höhe gewachsen sind .Aber alles noch im Rahmen. 😉 Jetzt werden sie für ein paar Tage in in meiner Anzucht-Box verbringen bevor es ins Zelt geht .

Easy trim✂️ The buds are rock solid🤩 The smell citrus & earthy 🍋 See you in 2025 for the smoke report Take care

Hola a todos , esta semana he visto como las hormigas han hecho su trabajo, comiendo algunos tallos y flores, mas alla de este problema, que he resuelto ya, la planta se la ve bien, el color de los tallos fue mejorando. Esta semana he regado por primera vez con flora booster 2.5 ml x litro de agua. Medi el ph del agua a 6.3 y EC a 1000

Finally got my buddy to come out and add in a 20 amp outlet so I can fire up a better light. Still using quantum boards but with a 4500k spectrum. Got in a foliar with the Growzyme from green buzz liquids. Fed them right before I took the pics they look a little sad but hopefully they bounce back quickly. Not much else going on. The code bangdang will get you discounts at.. Gorillagrowtent.com Rainsciencegrowbags.com KindLEDgrowlights.com and more (see Instagram Bio for @bangdangbuds) Also check out my Instagram if your interested in entering a giveaway for a green buzz liquids starter kit including some living organics, fast plants spray and some seeds of the winner choice.

Decided to add another two a week later Just to complicate things a bit 😂. This will run beside diary 1. Germination was fast. this will be first RQS grow experience. never had a bad seed from PEV yet. alone.
