been AFK for while, been focusing on work and my new main tent run. here’s the update 2 on the left and the one back right are my strains, the AF x Turk. back right is the one in the video, stacked main cola. smells range from a earthy spice to a foul rotting fruit smell. the rotting fruit sting the nostrils it’s so powerful. the one in the front left is a Terp Town Ticket from a controversial UK breeder named blue skies vienna. he claims to have real deal skunk genetics from OldTimer1, a legend in the UK weed scene. he apparently played a part in getting the skunk to the dutch, and these are “pre dutch” skunks. mine smells like a cherry coke with a real musky/funky/ “skunk” smell, but not full on skunk spray. she’s about 2-3 weeks behind my ladies. will probably post when everything is done and dried.

Nous somme à la 8ème semaine de fruits tout se passe bien, nous entamons le flush des racines.

one thing i liked was it started to get a little purple but that didnt really come through in the end. also i like the fast flowering. what i didnt like was that it truly was a bitch to grow, and if this were a bingo night i'd have crossed out nearly all the possible deficiencies and pest issues you can get. After being really happy with the purple punch genetics this one has been l bit of a disappointment really. i'd love to see more information strainspecifically to come with the package of seeds. like for instance if its a heavy feeder, if it likes the lights close or far away, and how long the flowereing period usually takes. Probably not growing this again anytime sooon though.

happy new year .. wishing you a year full of wealth, health and a kind of happiness and joyful moments that truly matters! happy new year!!

03/11 Elle vas bien. Elle est en forme. 😁👍 Bien sur, merci à Dutchfem pour ces jolies graines . On en trouvent là: https://www.dutchfem.com/

2025/03/24 : 10s in sandpaper tube, then 2h in X-seed and in easy-plug watered with trikologic (1g/L). Expanded clay are in pH 5.5 for 3 days, allmost ready. I'll set up cultimate S with first nutritive solution a few days too. 2025/03/27 : TC popped out! 2025/03/28 : As tap root is out of easy-plug, I'll give easy-pyramid mini a try (1.2L). I watered it with Terra Aquatica "first roots" schedule and will let it enroot under SF300. I finished Cultimate S setup and figured I need more expanded clay so, back in 5.5 pHed water... I prepared "first true leaves" solution to check if pH stays OK for a few days in active cultimate. 2025/03/30 : nothing special

moving on into the later stages of flowering i am waiting on the final stretch of bulking before the buds start to mature i am already seeing the odd pistil starting to brown but all in all we are still a few weeks from harvest happy growing friends friday update: we are now definetly well into the ripening stage as more and more pistils are turning the smell is becoming way more typical for a marijuana plant and there is more resin than before hope for a quick under 2 week finish so i can process before vacation and hopefully have a test smoke before leaving i dont care too much about flavors more just the effects

6/30 I messed up and put 8 days last week so I'll have tp do a six day week to get back on schedule. Pounded rain last night I guess. Very intense but very brief. As you can see in the video the plants are found great. A few have revegged so I'll need to defoliate the middle. I could make a TON of clones but it's pretty late for that. I might clone a couple outstanding plants to keep the genetics. Still seeing some pillar damage. Might do bt tonight. I'll keep this updated. 7/1 Super hot yesterday. Reached 90°. We are getting SOME rain today and thunder showers day after tomorrow. Bags still had some heft and everything looked good. I went back aroundcand found about half were at the point of needing water. He'll, they probably all did. My watering can is 2 gallons not 1.5 as advertised. So that means I used 5 gallons on the garden (not watering the 50) focusing the more water on the lightest bags. That tenth planet I'm seeing more septoria like leaves. This makes enough for me to be fairly positive ill need to treat it. I have plant doctor but I think copper works better. I also see more pillar damage so I've gotta apply something. I also need to lst more and I keep to clean put the interior of the plants so they don't get pm. EDIT: IT WAS 80° and no rain at 6:30. Humidity close to 100% bit plants look AMAZING! I'm hoping this may be my best year yet! I won't grow a bigger plant than tjat blue cheese in the 50 but so far everything is looking good. I may add some nutes to the pink kush in the 50 due to tje slightly less green color. I assume it's just because the other soil is all New amd this was a mix. I defoliated lightly to prevent pm but I have more to do. I just wanted to get a video of the girls looking good. 7/2 82° at 9am. Glad I decided to water even thoughvi watered yesterday. I need to up my volume. Thirty degree temp swings don't help much either. I said I used 4 gals but I used 5. I had one phed already. I'm hoping this will be one of my best years. IT looks like it! I won't have that MONSTER blue cheese in the 50. It was the smallest plant anyway and shows the difference between using NEW soil and mixing old soil WITH new soil. It's a much lighter green. Still need to apply bt and do a little more defoliation. EDIT: IT'S 90° WITH LIKE 100% RH. PLANTS LOOK A LITTLE HEAT STRESSED BUT OTHERWISE PRETTY DAMN GOOD. EVEN MY FATHER MENTIONED (KNOCK ON WOOD) "THAT I DONT HAVE ANY SHOT ON THEM THIS YEAR." LOL. I UPLOADED A VIDEO TO SHARE. HOPE YOU GUYS ARE HAVING AS MUCH FUN AS I AM! 7/3 83° at 9:40a.m. I need to increase my watering volume so I don't need to water every day. I used 5 gallons to water everything but the 50. I think I'm underwatering. However it was supposed to be severe thunder storms with torrential rain, high winds and hail. I'll gratefully take this hot sunny day instead. However in the future I think I'm not goingvto add in the predicted rainfall in my schedule. Unless it's a torrential down pour obviously. Everything g is still looking good and I've still got some work to do.

April 19, 2024 Day 64 We are coming up on the 10 week mark soon enough. I'm expecting both of these ladies to start swelling buds any day. So another 2 weeks before harvest. Probably 3 to 4 more weeks. Tropicana Cookies is actually 31" tall while Tropicana C is 28" tall. However, due to the highest points being so tall, I have those tops as far on the outside of the light footprint as I can. I managed to get the DLI down to 50 mol/m²/d for each plant. While the rest of the canopy is happily at 45 mol/m²/d. No watering today. Maybe tomorrow. The water intake has increased a bit over the past couple of days, so I may be topping off tomorrow or early morning the day after. I'm also getting some nutrient burn from what I believe is the Overdrive. I have it at full dose and honestly think it's too much. So I'm cutting it in half as well as Bud Candy. That's also at full dose and I don't think it's needed. So cutting that in half as well. The light will be staying the same for the next 2 weeks now that the plants have hit their final height. I'm guessing that's how much longer it will be before flushing. I'll drop the light power at the same time as flush. The flush should be about a week. The environment is giving me a hard time today. The temp is high at 78° with the humidity high as well at 56%. Not really sure what's causing it, but I'll turn my damn AC on if I have to. Anyway, I'm still having trouble keeping it at 50% humidity, so getting to 45% seems unrealistic. So I'll work with 50% and just make sure to check for any signs of mold or anything. I don't think I'll get anything like that, but you never know. Grow System Environment: Temp: 74.2° RH: 53.3% VPD: 1.31 kPa April 20, 2024 Happy 420!!! Not much going on today with these 2. They will both need watering tomorrow. So they are finally at a half gallon a day. The 2 other plants in the tent are also at a half gallon a day, but they are on the opposite schedule. It works for me. Gives me something to do everyday, but not sitting there for a half hour mixing nutrients. (I use 1 gallon jugs for each plant) Tropicana Cookies looks great! Her buds are starting to swell and stack. They are just about ready to start swelling up. I can tell they will be super tight as well. There are a couple places where the pistils are orange and shriveled up. The bud is super dense. However, that could be seeds. I'm not too sure at this point. It's a high possibility. Tropicana C also has a couple tops with the same type of super dense buds. Again, these two are identical in every way. I wouldn't be surprised if it was the same top doing the same thing. Anyway, looking super good. Buds from top to bottom. They aren't big and fat yet, but there still a good 2 to 3 weeks left. Hopefully less though. I have 4 more plants I have to start today for a contest. Unfortunately those plants will be stuck ina. 2x2 until these ones are out of the tent. The lighting hasn't changed whatsoever and won't for the next 2 weeks. The environment is looking great now. It's steadily climbing up from 68° last night and is at about 75° now and will definitely be at 76° in about an hour. The humidity is great at 51%. As I said yesterday, I don't think I'll be able to drop it down any further. Grow System Environment: Temp: 73.4° RH: 52.3% VPD: 1.30 kPa April 21, 2024 Watering day. Both ladies got watered today. Not much else going on though. Tropicana Cookies was nearly dry, but not quite. Unfortunately, Tropicana C was bone dry. I don't like it getting dry. The wick system gets messed up. But it did give me a chance to quickly wipe down the basin. Both plants have nutrient burn from what I assume was the dose of Overdrive. So today I left it out. Just to allow the nutrients to even out. Next watering I'll be doing 4 ml of it. I also dropped the Bud Candy down to 4 ml. Just Incase it was partly that as well. The lighting was, of course, not changed at all. The power will be dropped in the next week or so. This strain should have a 6 week flowering stage. 45 days is the estimate. So there's about 3 weeks left. Much longer than I was expecting. Honestly it's from the 5 week veg period. I find it strange that I didn't get any massive plants in 5 weeks. At the end of the grow, we will be hitting just under 12 weeks. No clue why I can't get my plants to grow at the suggested time frame. The earliest I have ever harvested was 11 weeks. Or maybe 12. Strange. I'll have to figure that out. The environment is looking good today. The temp is leveled out at 75° and the humidity is happily at 49%. The VPD is a little low at 1.39 kPa, but it will fix soon enough. Grow System Environment: Temp: 73.4° RH: 49.7% VPD: 1.39 kPa April 22, 2024 Definitely nothing going on today. Tropicana C had a couple leaves popped off today. Just a couple that were covering some bud sites and encroaching on other tops. Tropicana Cookies looks great! I will say her buds aren't fat like I was expecting. They seem more like sativa buds. It's strange. They are thin and small and look super airy. I'm not sure if this is the deal, but both plants look like this. Only time will tell. Tropicana C also looks quite good, with the same bud swelling issues, but we shall see as I said. She got 2 leaves removed. They were being crushed by the wall and in turn were overcrowding other bud sites. The lighting is staying the same of course. I believe an a week or 2, I'll have to drop the intensity. The environment is once again looking great! 75° and 50% humidity. The overnight temp is still at 68°. I'd much rather it be at 66°. Maybe I'll cool my room off earlier in the evening to allow the tent to cool faster at night, so the temp drops to the average of 66°. I'll start that next week. Grow System Environment: Temp: 73.8° RH: 49.2% VPD: 1.41 kPa April 23, 2024 Nothing going on today. Just the daily inspection. What I've discovered has me a bit confused. Both plants have tons of orange pistils with some being so shriveled up you can't see them. Those buds are super tight, but I have a feeling those couple tops like that are seeded. I'll find out soon enough. Honestly, I can't tell. Don't really know what I'm looking for. The problem I'm confused about is the size of the buds. They're tiny, wispy and look underdeveloped. Maybe they are. Who knows. Maybe this strain gets early orange pistils. We shall see. I hope they swell up. Like a lot. As it stands now, it looks like an oz of smalls. Which of course is unacceptable. However, both plants are doing it, so it has to be the strain. Something I probably shouldn't be all that concerned with. I'm leaving the light where it is for the next week or so. With the pistils already turning orange, I'm thinking I should prepare for the final stage of flower. I would expect it to be done in the next 2 to 3 weeks, but it may be less time. Anyway, I'll see what they are doing next week and work from there. The environment is actually looking really good. I managed to get the temp up significantly earlier today by cranking my heat to 88°. It brought the tent temp up to 78° and the humidity just below 50%. Looking good. Now all I have to do is drop the temp a little bit to get to that perfect 75°. Also, my dehumidifier wasn't on. I must of have it off from the other day. So I should see lower humidity by the end of the day. Especially after I adjust the temp. Looking good. Update: I've been thinking about how the buds are so small. I wonder if I took the Big Bud out too early and added the overdrive too soon. I can't go back to Big Bud, but that could be the cause. Still, another 2 to 3 weeks left. So we shall see. But an interesting thought. Grow System Environment: Temp: 73.7° RH: 49.0% VPD: 1.42 kPa April 24, 2024 Both ladies got a reservoir refill today. Tropicana C was dried out. So I need to keep a better eye on the water levels. Tropicana Cookies wasn't dried out yet though, very close but not yet. Tropicana Cookies looks great! Her buds are finally starting to swell and if there's another 2 weeks, I can expect them to get huge. We shall see. Tropicana C has the same boost in bud production and has swelling buds now. Everything else looks good with her. Speaking of swelling buds and production, both ladies are completely covered in trichomes. Not quite "frosty" yet, but getting there. I'll start with trichome pics next week. That way we have some good specimens to work with. On another note, the aroma these two are putting off is intense now. I'll have to change the smell setting to STRONG next week. It's a sickly sweet smell, but crispy. Not too heavy, but definitely has a gassy undertone. Very nice. I won't be moving the light at all for the rest of the grow. However, I may drop the power down to 80% next week and bring the DLI down to 40 mol/m²/d. But maybe not. I'm waiting for the flushing period. I'm not sure when that will be. Maybe 2 weeks? I can't tell with this strain. So many orange pistils and she looks like she is nearly done, but definitely not. They still have a good two weeks left. We shall see. The environment is a bit off today. It's raining, so the humidity is hanging out around 52%. The temp is fine at around 75° to 76°. I'm not too worried about the environment today. Just thought I would note the difference. Grow System Environment: Temp: 74.6° RH: 50.9% VPD: 1.41 kPa April 25, 2024 So today is the last day of week 9 and also going into the first day of late flower. Things will most likely be changing up in the next week. Nutrients, lighting and environment. Not much to do today. No watering needed and no maintenance. I checked out both plants and as I was saying yesterday, the trichomes are looking great and will start getting pics starting tomorrow. Everything looks good for both ladies. The lighting of course wasn't messed with today. That will be changing at some point next week. The environment is shaping up to be great for the start of late flower. I got the temp down to 65° last night and the humidity down to 48°. Today I have had it around 76° with the humidity around 49%. Grow System Environment: Temp: 74.1° RH: 49.3% VPD: 1.43 kPa

* 02/08 - Week 1 Flower - Flushed out veg nutes - Feeding only flower nutes - light feeds to begin - heavy water feeds in between - bend clips have been applied until the end of the week*

The strain came out amazing very purple an very dense didn't have a very strong smell but deff a nice one got 3 ounces after all said an done

Smell hardcore , also started flushing the chocolate Thai with 5ml/l of clean fruits , imperium X and fucking incredible need one more week with fertilizer , next irrigation I will reduce for the fucking incredible because of the senescence but continue for imperium X

Sulla più piccola sono arrivate le mosche bianche per sfortuna, spero che non invadono le altre, non da nemmeno segni di sviluppo la Cherry, peccato.. Le altre in grande forma, soprattutto il mostro di skittles! Ho annaffiature solo 2 volte con noci questa settimana il resto solo acqua, non voglio stressante troppo, ormai è ora della fioritura per loro ❤️ Spero che non continuino a nutrirsi delle mie piccole..per ora gestibile, stiamo a vedere. Le infiorescenze iniziano a ingrandirsi, il profumo anche, meravigliose.

Elle commence a élargir

Final 2 weeks the leaves start to fade on their own, today i stared feeding ripen The buds look weird but frosty The smell is insane

First week of flower is in the books. I posted my feeding schedule in the pics above. If you find yourself looking at it wondering why you're seeing back to back feeds with mycos or teas its because with organics you never want to let your pots dry out. You obviously dont want to waterlog the pots but you need to find that balance with watering so as to keep your ecosystem happy and active. It's not a feed/water/water system where you're watering every other day as you do with salt based bottled nutrients. Always remember you're feeding the microboes/fungi/bactria and they are feeding your plants. If you dry your pots out with organics those elements become dormant and or die off which will lead to deficiencies and a weakened immune system. The week was going smoothly until last night. The timer for whatever reason didnt kill the lights after 12 hrs had past so they got a little over an hr of extra light. To help maintain consistency with the plants I just altered on/off times to make sure they still recieved 12 hrs of darkness. So I was running 6pm-6am now with the overage last night I'm running 730pm-730am. I have heard some horror stories about how something like this has affected people's plants but they are few and far between. I'm not overly worried about it as a plant thats growing outdoors never gets a true 12/12 lighting period. I caught it early, adjusted my lighting schedule to accommodate a 12 hr off period, and being so early in the flowering stage I should be ok. Obviously it goes without saying but this is taboo and not something you want to be making a habit of with photoperiod plants. My dehumidifier also decided to do it's own thing last night and didn't shut off as per the settings (set to 45%) and as a result it pulled my humidty down to 39% down from the 45%-47% that the room usually runs at. As a result my temps rose into the 28-29 Celsius range overnight up from the 25-26 Celcius (my preferred flowering temps) that the room usually sees. So she was quite the party downstairs while I was sleeping. To my surprise when I turned the lights on the plants looked very happy and healthy and immediately started praying to the sun gods. I got lucky here with respect to what I was speaking about above with watering practices and organics. As I keep my pots in the sweet spot with daily waterings this didnt negatively affect the plants. I've prepped and am bubbling a compost tea (posted a video) which will be fed tomorrow. I also through some organic popcorn seeds and organic mung bean seeds in the seed sprouter (pic posted above) to make a popcorn/mung bean SST for the plants that's loaded with all kinds of enzymes and goodness. It's also pretty sweet to be able to say you feed your plants popcorn. Like I mean really though 😁. I'll talk a little more about SSTs next week but if your curious about it there are many websites about this topic, homesteadandchill.com would be a great place to start. They lightly touch on topic without diving to deep into the science behind it so it's easy reading to help introduce you.

Loved it all from the start! Could see from the rqs pot it thrived and the organic nutrients made it so much more alive! I mean I had little effort in her just had to water and add boost and I did that every fortnight! I’m so for organic now may try a one part solution next! Glad of the weights had so many nice dense buds on her and the initial taste was sweet and fruity and that’s before a full cure! Royal queen seeds deserve there place on the map 1 million percent

Day 55! Just shy of the 8 week mark, I reckon next week the Lemon cherries will be getting the 🔪 buds swollen out nice, still lots of white pistils and very clear trichomes, but with the way there developing I’ll have to keep a close eye.. gorillas starting to bulk up now, as always I’m looking forward to what this week brings, untill next time! 👊🏻

Good week, no issues popping up. Just watered when needed. WCC she is packing on weight, with buds stacked on buds and smells amazing. C4 Very strong girl, nothing has fazed her from the beginning. Beautiful purple plant and the smell is floral. And packing some nice looking buds. Gelato Pretty much the same as C4, very strong, looking amazing and the smell is delicious. Bud sites aplenty. SBP Small bud sites are developing with a few white hairs. More just growing her on as a little experiment really she how she turns out. Not expecting much, but we'll see

Week 1 Day 1 - Clones #1 and #2 are looking alright, not super strong and slight nutrient deficiency issues, but OK. Will just observe for now. - These clones are currently under a very mild CFL light (20 cm away and about 200 ppfd measured roughly by phone app - Tent Buddy.) - Clone #3 still need to be covered to maintain moisture. Yesterday I un-cupped the clone and it wilted a lot. This morning it looks better again after a night of rest under the plastic cup. - I've checked the run off and these clone's pH are so low, while TDS are so high (pH 5.7 and TDS 800pm). This evening, I flushed them with pH 6.5 water and brought the runoff to about pH 6.0 and 350 ppm) Week 1 Day 2 - Just foliage spray with mild CalMag this morning. Soil is still moist, so no watering. Week 1 Day 3 - Just minor watering today. Glad to see the clones are doing well as they are growing a bit everyday. Will transfer them to 3 gallon airpots with new soil mix soon. Week 1 Day 4 - Foliage spray with mild CalMag and Seaweed. Add 5ml of 250 ppm of balanced NPK nutrients AN B52 for each plant. Week 1 Day 5 - Foliage spray with mild CalMag and Seaweed. Transfer them to 3 gallon airpots. Week 1 Day 6 - Foliage spray with mild CalMag and Seaweed. Skip watering. The clones responded OK to the new airpots. Week 1 Day 7 - TBA
