Tropicana flowers 🌞☀️🌤️🌦️🌧️ Plant is 15 cm high because of low stress training. The length is 31 cm. Day 36: Sun is shining, 15-23 degrees, high humidity. Tropicana gets two liters of pure rainwater. Spend the day in my veggie garden working. In the evening I brought some 🐞for Tropicana because I spottet a few lice. My mood changes drastically as I find spider mites eggs, first and second stadium. Don‘t overthink that and decide to defoliate the plant immediately. I prepare a tee out of the leaves which brings fast relaxation. My mood is much better now. Day 37 In the morning with better light I find more spider mites and decide to wash the plant with rainwater. Can‘t find after any more of these little killer dwarfs. I decide to bring more beetles and check the leafs more often. Temperature is felling under 20 degrees, it‘s raining and the humidity is 87%. Day 38 In the early morning I couldn‘t find any mites on Tropicana. Got to continue controlling this in the next weeks regular. I‘m sure they are still there somewhere hidden in a dark spot. 🌦️ 13 - 21 degrees and humidity is around 60-70%. Day 39 🌦️🌧️ Very rainy day. Just let Tropicana enjoy life and tie down the top one more time. 🐞 stay since some days. One on every plant. I think the mites are a result of their start inside and no hygiene at all. Have the same with my peppers some years. 14 - 21 degrees, humidity around 84% Day 40 🌧️☁️🌤️☀️15 degrees, humidity 83% We listen to Roots Reggae, Tropicana is happy and quite busy with producing new roots, I guess. Don‘t understand when to stop low stress training. I think it’s enough now. She needs a rest. Day 41 🌧️⛈️🌧️🌧️ 15 - 19 degrees, humidity up to 89% We had rainfall today around 65 liters of water. I collected enough of it for the next weeks. Day 42 ☀️ 6 - 23 degrees. Humidity is falling. Tropicana enjoys the morning sun while she drinks and drinks and drinks…. Coffee. 😅

She started out on a 19/5 light schedule but was switched to 12/12 at 2 weeks into flower as she was sharing a tent with my photo's which had to be flipped. I'm sure this affected her yield and I'll be running this cultivar again using 19/5 throughout the entire run which I'm sure will increase the end yield. I left her alone and didn't do any topping or LST on her throughout her run until she went into flower. Once flowering I only did minimal LST and let her go. She developed 9 or 10 big cola's that ended up looking like they were left outside on a frosty night! This girl took all the nutrients and light I could throw at her (up to 1800ppm and 1200 umol's) and never skipped a beat! Definitely one I'll run again as she's a fun one to cultivate, fast flowering and some potent ass buds! ended up with 78g of frosty flowers, 18g of 'sugar trim' and 1.5g of 'first bounce' sift...97.5g total, not too shabby! This strain's fantastic for pressing too! I have pressed two batches so far using only the smaller/lighter buds and have got 22-25% yields on both, and the end product is amazing!

Buenas cultivetas! Esta semana el clima tampoco ayudó mucho 😞 A pesar de que no llovio, se esperan lluvias los proximos dias y las temperaturas aun no son las adecuadas. Solo tuve 2 o 3 dias a pleno sol. De todas formas seguimos con los nutrientes de vegetacion el preventivo de plagas una vez por semana con jabon potasico, aceite de neem y canela en una solucion liquida. A pesar del preventivo sigo encontrando algunos bichos que muestro en un video. La tecnica deLST parece estar saliendo bien. Espero no estresarla mucho y que de buenos resultados. Buen cultivo para todos y gracias por leer mi diario! Actualización 5/10: Tengo algunos vecinos gatos que les encanta sacar el sustrato de mis macetas... Por suerte no han desprendido la planta pero casi... Las acomode de nuevo y parecen estar bien. No tuve mucha suerte con este cultivo sumado a mi falta de experiencia.

So only after two weeks of curing these buds are becoming more and more refined! The texture of the buds is beautiful, it crumbles and grinds up effortlessly in my space case and is light, fluffy and almost “goopy” coming out of the grinder. I guess goopy is my description of ground bud that sticks together as it comes out of the grinder. It almost resembles goo or putty! That’s always a great indicator of a strain that has lots of sticky dank trichomes 😎 Now onto the high... I must admit, I was a little disappointed at first. I was initially caught off guard by how smooth the smoke went down, but usually after the first hit I feel something. After the first hit of this strain I didn’t, so I packed another bowl and sparked her up... not much different. Around 15min after my second hit I started to gradually feel a trippy/tingly full body buzz and strong head buzz come on. Once I sat down on the couch it’s like it fully kicked in and I really felt a truly euphoric full body high along with a head high that felt incredible. She’s definitely what some would call a “creeper strain”! To me though, the high is reminiscent of the first hour after ingestion of some top quality cubensis! In a nutshell the high is euphoric, energetic and crisp. I don’t feel groggy at all when I smoke this strain, I can be extremely productive with work and still articulate my thoughts with ease. I also noticed that I don’t get anxious in public and even though this strain is extremely uplifting and energetic I have zero issues getting to sleep at night. I could truly classify this strain as medicinal and I know if I was still a caregiver this would be on constant rotation! I will update more after 2.5-3.0 months cure!

Hi all and welcome back. This is week 9.. its been an easy journey so far despite she is not as tall you guys hoped, but for the bucket it is awesome! Learning from this experience, should have added side lighting and the little fan i installed was not meant to spin around the clock.. But still im happy. Good colour and she is very sticky.. and the smell hmm. Will edit along the week, stay updated! Edit: sadly i had to remove 1 top because of rot.. Edit 2: day 62 end of the week. Made my first video to give you an all good view! Thanks for watching :) Grtz- BB

Baby 8-11 week

Jetzt wurde die Apple Strudel von Fastbuds geerntet. Ich bevorzuge sie nass zu Trimmen und sie in in ihre einzelnen Buds zu zerlegen um sie für die nächsten Tage in das abgedunkelte Zelt in einem Trocknungsnetz zu hängen! Bei einer Temperatur aktuell von 20Grad und einer Luftfeuchtigkeit von ca 55-60% Hier liegen die Buds erstmal für die nächsten 10-14Tage Trockengewicht lag bei 37g Happy Growing

Her flowers are forming nicely this week! A few more weeks to go yet.

Jetzt ist mir klar warum Sativa so lange brauchen - nach 2 Wochen und 2 Tagen Stretch kaum noch richtige Blüten sichtbar - heute 4.1 Liter Getränk eher inhaliert als getrunken. Weiter gehts.

Hi everyone, Weed brothers. Here we are ready for a new week of fire! My dolls have been transferred under a wider tent with the hope of opening up their final yield .... It's very hot ... let's get the best

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.

thought i will make the effort and upload the whole diary at once... would be a shame not to have it in my portfolio ;) i'm still amazed by the looks of the buds...fat and sticky- gorilla glue ;) she took my innovations better than expected...not much trim...the whole damn plant is one big fat sticky bud...dry weight of trimmed buds. blew me away!!!! heavy weight auto champion l!!!! hope my meth & fastberry will do as good,

This was a pretty explosive week for growth! These girls really took off this week! I have been topping off the res with just plain RO water this week after the change and for this run I have kept the strength of the nutrients pretty low and have been hanging around 0.6 EC, I don't see much of a need to increase at all. I am going to continue to keep a lower EC and just watch the plants. I think last run I may have fed a little hot a time or two so gonna go low and slow this run and it has been working out so far. I will be putting my trellis net up either today or tomorrow because I think I am really going to need it this run. I noticed yesterday that it looks like these girls are showing signs of entering the flowering phase so I need to get set up and be prepared for the stretch! I'm getting a little nervous about the height of the plants as well because they are growing fairly tall pretty quick, but hopefully the net will help a bit. No issues to report really and they look healthy as can be! Thanks for stopping by and checking out my grow! As always any tips, comments, recommendations are always valued and appreciated! Thanks everyone you guys rock!

This week I added 9 ml of nutrient per gal of water to prepare for switching to flowering. Grow 5 inches this week getting ready to start flowering. I lowered the light to eight inches which really had these plants growing faster and thicker.

Our number #Lavender had a rough start and a happy ending. At one point she fired a fantastic main cola into the sky and now we are almost ready for the cut. https://seedsmafia.com/en/ https://www.mars-hydro.com/

19.07.21 Moin liebe grower Gemeinde hab gestern (Sonntag 18.07.21) die ersten 3 Ladys wieder getoppt und endblättert danach habe ich alle 4 Äste, (bei jeder Lady) versucht auf eine hohe aus zu richten was ganz gut geklappt hat.mir is aufgefallen das alle Ladys gleichmäßige nodien produzieren bis auf purps OG Nr. 3 die hat an einem Ast tatsächlich 4 neue auf einem Haufen wie auf dem Bild zu sehen ist ich gehe Mal davon aus das es durch den Stress verursacht wurde vom toppen,denke Mal das solche Anomalien normal sind und werde den Spass weiter beobachten hab wieder was zum lernen gefunden 😎😎😎😎😎 Mal sehen wie sich das ganze entwickelt denke Mal das ich Mittwoch oder Donnerstag Lady nr.4 in ihren endtopf setzen werde und dann auch gleich weiter Main Laining an den ersten 3 weiter führe. Ach ja zu den 3 Stecklingen in der Mitte habe vor sie die Tage nach draussen zu setzen ich weiss ist ziemlich spät dafür aber ich liebe Experimente, bis die Tage und euch, die alle bald ernten und auf dem Weg dorthin sind wünsch ich ne reichlich Fette Ernte mit glitzernden disco Kugeln🕺🕺🕺🕺🕺😁😁😁😁😁 22.07.21 habe gestern die ersten 3 Tomaten Ringe gebaut sind jeweils 5x35 cm Zaundraht die ich eingedreht habe (also sozusagen eine Öse), habe dann alles nochmal auf gleiche länge geschnitten und mir ein langes Stück Draht ca anderthalb Topfumrandungen lang. Stäbe am Topfrand verteilen wie sie ca stehen sollen und dann den Draht einfädeln und zum Schluss überstehendes mit Kabelbindern (Strapse) fest zurren ezzzz. jetzt stehen die Stäbe ca 14 cm über dem Topfrand. Drückt mir die Daumen das alles so klappt wie ich mir das vorstelle is das erste Mal das ich mit dem Tomaten Ring arbeite. Zu purps OG Nr. 4 die ist heute in ihren endtopf um gezogen, werde Sonntag dort dann auch auf 8 Äste toppen und danach den Tomaten Ring einbauen euch allen noch ne Ernte reiche Woche

week intel: its time to harvest some of plants the ones that is mature enough. indica dominant plants will done first always so we should harvest them first because my base nutrients and one of boosters was salt based, i'll do flushing this week to get some relieve to plants in the last days stresses : flushing Drought stress via watering only one time with flushing this week feeding: day 1 : i flushed them with Advanced Nutrients Flawless finish and adjusted ph day 3 : no more feeding from now on day 5 : no more feeding from now on guide of the week : i harvest in 2 parts : first i harvest top of the branches and will let the lower buds to ripe another week then ill harvest the second wave. indica dominant plants will get done 1 or 2 weeks sooner than sativa dominant plants that will often takes more than 8 weeks so be aware to harvest them sooner. my dry and cure style is this: 3 days of hanging upside down to get water activity lower to around 0.6 in 50% humidity and 26 C temp (i know its a little high but we are in a hot summer right now and i cant get it lower even with air conditioner) and then after 3 days of drying i remove leaves and stalks, trim buds and move them to jar for the rest of their life :D . and in the first 4 days of curing i open the jar door and let hem get some fresh air in the jar for about 5 minutes and close the jar door again, after 4 days of curing like that buds are smokable but they will get better as they getting cured about 1 month. im happy as hell with this harvest :D.

Day 15 21/5 . Plant #1 is going amazing. very happy with the recent development. Considering a transplant in a week to its final 18L soil pot. Plant #2 still breathing. Everyday gone my hopes go lower. Plant #3 is finally out of the soil. I'm so happy to have a 100% germination rate in this batch. Great job Barney's Farm. - Moving from here on full diary on a separate and individual one. Link coming soon. Temps have been great, 19 with lights off, 26 lights on. RH levels go from 70% in the lights off, down to 30% in the day. Regarding the replies to my second question: First of all thank you for your help. Now, the extractor is running in the minimum speed already it has incorporated thermostat. Think it's really a bit too powerful. And yes, I only turn it off a couple hours in the night to raise the RH inside the grow, that's been helping me getting better results for the lights on period. Day 16 22/5 - Plant #1 continues growing great. Leaves have a daily growth that amazes me. Maybe a little short, if I compare with the height of the #3. Looking to transplant it during the weekend to the final 18l pot. Keeps drinking water very well, and is reacting well to the humidifier. Plant #2 still there. Not sure when, but I'll just throw it very soon Day 17 23/5 - Plant #1 is getting nice big leaves, but not as tall I as expected for this stage. Today was transplanted to the final 18l pot during night time, and watered with bio roots. Plant #2 is gone. unfortunately, turning it upside down wasn't such a good idea, should have waited a little longer and the outcome would have been different. I noticed I was keeping my lights too far, so went down to 45cm (ish). Hopefully the plant won't stress from transplant, and the lights aren't too close. RH is finally going up inside the grow to more acceptable levels. 40% with light on and up to 70% with light off. I also made a little change in my passive intake, to create more negative pressure, and the result is immediately visible when closing the tent. Day 18 24/5 - Plant #1 Reacted well to both the transplant and the light approximation. Nice response and stretch as you can see on the pictures above. As both plants reacted well and showed no signs of heat stress, lights went a little more down, closer to the plants. The closer the better, so let's see tomorrow the result. Keep feeding with the nuts mix I made earlier this week,switching to water when it's finished and then a new week should begin. RH looks stable 40% day 70% night. Night temp oscillates between 17 and 19, nice and cool for the ladies. Nice numbers, makes me happy. Day 19 25/5 - Plant #1 keep its natural development, love to see her in the day, has a beautiful green color and also the leaves looks quite nice Temperatures today got a little higher in the grow, touching the 30's during day time, and consequently de RH went to 32%. Also got a few of this bug stickers to help prevent with possible intruders Day 20 26/5 - #1 Start to consider topping it soon, got the 3 branches already. Not sure if should wait for another set of branches comes out. No feeding today, yesterday gave it enough so it looks like it can take another day to dry. The temps were at 19.5 and RH was 62% - off time I leave you guys also a video of the grow with the lights off just made. I'm quite proud of it, let's see how it goes! Day 21 27/5 - #1 growing steady. Love her so much 😍It hasa really nice green, leaves are quite strong. Love the way they bounce back when touched. Definitely the plants are enjoying the work of the circulation fans. Inside the tent things are looking nice, even though the RH is still low in the peak of the day. 30% only today. In the night can get it up to 70% if wanted but day time is getting a little hard. Temperatures are nice, 27 on, 18 off

Both are clearly in mid flowering. Starting to grow fast; every 24 hours I can see a difference in the bud size in both plants. I turned the light up to 100% now that it's using as much energy as it can.. I'll be checking for light burns daily.. so far so good. Both are very thirsty as well at this point.. went from feeding every 5-6 days to every 2 days tops. Doing a nute/nute/water feed.. these pics are day 2 of week 5 so taking more pics in a few more days Update: at 100% light burn started to occur. Caught it early tho. Put the light back to 80% and just brought a couple inches closer.
