Tart Pops has officially hit that “teenage” flower stage — stretching has slowed, and now she’s starting to throw on some early bling. Bud sites are stacking up like little party balloons, pistils shooting out everywhere like confetti at a rave. 🎉 She’s holding her color beautifully, rocking those purple-striped stems like it’s fashion week. Side branches are flexing too, each one proudly carrying their own little crown of future frost. Feedings have been smooth sailing — she’s drinking up bloom juice without complaints, and a touch of cal-mag is keeping her bones strong. With airflow kicking around the canopy, she’s dancing happily in the breeze, staying fresh and comfy. From here on out, it’s all about patience — the sweet scents and crystal show are just around the corner. Tart Pops is looking ready to put on a sparkling flower performance in the weeks to come.

on day 20 I added the new 250w led panel. everything is proceeding perfectly even if I noticed a bit of dwarfism in the fat banana due to probabilmento to the wrong conservation of the seeds by my grow shop. however I have given some magic potion to the fat banana now let's see if it gets stronger in the next week. greetings to all and good cultivation!

Week 7 Progress & First Bloom Feed! (May 9th - May 18th) Welcome back, dudes! Things are progressing well in the grow tent. These pictures cover the period from May 9th to May 18th, showing steady growth and the start of flowering for some. I've made a key change to the feeding regimen: I've added GHF Bio Bloom to both the White Widow and the Banana Blazes, at a rate of 3 grams per liter of soil. This is to support their transition into the flowering stage and help them develop those sweet buds. Here’s the breakdown of how things are looking: White Widow XXL Auto (Barney's Farm): The White Widow continues to thrive. Her LST has really opened up the canopy, and you can see plenty of new bud sites developing. She's stretching nicely as she enters her flowering phase. Auto Banana Blaze (Dutch Passion) - First One: The first Banana Blaze is also showing good progress and is responding well to the added Bio Bloom. The earlier yellowish spots haven't worsened, and overall she's putting on solid growth. The Younger Ones (Second Auto Banana Blaze & Auto Kong 4): These two are steadily growing and stacking up their nodes. They're still a bit behind the older plants, but healthy and establishing well. Overall, the tent is bustling with activity, and it's exciting to see the first signs of proper bud formation. The new Bio Bloom addition should give them all the fuel they need for the upcoming flowering stretch. Stay tuned for more updates as these ladies continue to fill out and frost up!

Chopped on day 62, danky, earthy, slight gassy smells. Rock solid buds.

She splitted since the topping in 3 top Colas my special lil Girl 💚🧑‍🌾 And her big Sister handled the topping aswell really really great 💚 Smells like Teen spirit 💚💯🧑‍🌾

28° giorno di fioritura iniziano a formarsi .e profumare

Every week looking good to me 😄

Day 72 - 07/01/20 This one was the only survivor of my 4 x RQS diary. my blueberry auto, jack herer auto and GG auto didnt sprout but the diesel did and here is her harvest! I added some nice photos of the plant and the yield was 325g wet weight. Should be over an ounce once its dried. Update - Dry weight was 30g although much of the bud is small :) Ive been curing for a few days and its insane how the flavour and burn changes throughout curing :) Update - Day 78 - 13/01/20 The sweet diesel smell and taste is coming through. buds are becoming more and more enjoyable to smoke as days go by. :) il post a few pictures later tonight! Added the photos of some buds and a video so you can all have an opinion on how my buds turned out visually. let me know in the comments :) Il do a few more curing updates to let you know how the second week of curing goes! Day 86 - 21/01/20 I finally finished the NYCD after about 2 weeks of curing. It smokes fairly well and is definitely the best thing ive grown so far :) Buds developed quality and a sweet earthy diesel flavour/aroma over the 2 weeks of curing. one major improvement i would make is to source high quality soil as i really struggled to flush this properly. even still without lab quality conditions ive never felt so depression free since ive been taking this medicine regularly. to finish up i will say that I liked the NYCD diesel taste but i still preferred sour diesel. The plant grew to a reasonable height around 60cm and produced an ounce of average bud. and I might not have won any GD competitions, but im still a winner! :'D Lucky for us I just started an Sour Diesel Auto from fastbuds so you can check that out to see what i thought of it compared to this one :)

Flowering beginning of week 5

Another good week in the garden. These girls are finishing up now. Some will be picked over the next few days and some will go another week here. Got some recharge and mammoth P for the first time three days ago. Hoping to finish strong 💪

We have underestimated our number #3 all the time until last week... now it's a great little bush, always a little short, for heaven's sake, but the flower is not lacking and also very beautiful. https://seedsmafia.com/en/ https://www.mars-hydro.com/

Cultivation was very easy in terms of vegetation and up to half of flowering, where I encountered difficulties and ended up postponing their harvest. drying Purple presented 220g wet and 39g dry. I can smell a fruity scent on it and I see a lot of resin. I'm happy with the result but I still want a 50g plant.

I soak the Root Riot cubes in their own Clonex solution and feed them with the rest until it's gone

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

Day 49 - 14th Day of Flower I'm starting to really enjoy this part of the grow. That said the amount they have stretched is crazy! My lights are maxed out height wise and they are only just 18" above the tallest colas so I really hope they finish up stretching soon. Nutes: I added PK13/14 for fridays feed and they seem to have responded really well to it. They have been fed every other day as they aren't quite drying up in 24 hours. One thing I have noticed this week is the smell! They have become incredibly pungent. Everytime i go in the tent I have to change my clothes as they just smell so much. The fan leaves around the bud sites are becoming sticky! I have taken the smallest one out to photograph this week. It was sick when i got it as cutting so wasn't topped as early as the others. That said it seems to have grown into a really nice shape and has lots of buds developing. No problems really this week. Just a bit of mild light burn which I kept on top of. They will have 1 more defoliation this week and then I'll leave them be.

Slowly but surely, it's growing all right. The plants are keeping low and bushy. I have three plants, each with 3 different heights. One normal, one growing sideways and one that's kind of a dwarf. Only 3 months to go!

Last week plants were looking super healthy and responded very well to the second topping so I decided to flip the light schedule few days later. They already started stretching and the smell is noticeably enhanced.

Rainbow melon has stolen my heart From day one the plant was bigger as nice strong stock handles low stress training well some of the biggest buds I’ve ever had. I am truly in love with this plant fade is absolutely one of the Most beautiful like an Indian summer Cannot wait to see what they come up with next💪🔥💯

Wow!! It was sunny and hot all week! You can see that they almost doubled their size and are looking pretty much more healthy. That is also because I followed @MadeInGermany 's advice and decided to wait more until I had to water. They seem to have liked that, beacuse there is no more sign of Ca blocking in the leaves. And they grew very nicely, no need of everything. Also following his advice I will use Cal/Mag in the next watering. But, you know, I'm making it cheap... so I will use another home-made recipe: wood ash fertilizer, which include those nutrients and some that are needed in flowering stage -which seems to be starting, so next week will have the flowering label-. It also degrades the N in the soil that could be still causing a little overfeeding (leaves' tips are a bit burnt). However, I admit that my mistake was overwatering from the beggining. Lesson learned! No watering for the whole week and the plnat didn't seem to worry about it. Man! If only it had been this sunny all the time! Plants look very healthier and are way bigger, with huge new leaves. A little amount of pistils showed up in the last days, so I guess it is the moment for stretching. Knowing that, I decided to do a little training on Sweet, as it is the one a bit behind. You can see in the last picture how I took a couple leaves that were blocking light from side branches-future bud sites- and taped them, so they didn't. If results are good I might do the same with Rebel, but I have a feeling that she'll do good without it. Sadly, next week will be all rainy and cloudy... Nothing to do tho. Any commentary will be thanked, even if it is about how cheesy the videos are! 😂

Another very busy week😵 So I did a video. I hope you enjoy😬
