We’re back again fellow growers! How ya been? Tried something different this time around with the pics since ya can’t really see much plant color with the purple lighting ha One new discovery I’ve made with the last slurry is these girls are getting HUNGRY - Feeding is at an all time high - but that may have something to do with a freaking 10 week veg 😂😂😂 Also I accidentally bumped a nug as I was bending some stems around and my god.. the smell emanating from these girls is AMAZING! 10 years ago I would have just squeezed a nug, now I know that’s not the best to do lol Speaking of the past - Does anyone else kinda miss the classic undercover nature of growing from the days old? Where you were watching a guy with a mask & sunglasses on YouTube at 2am climbing in his closet with a bottle of big bloom? Or Chubbs with his late night dabs and stories? (Still remember when he got in that road rage fight years ago) INSANE. Those were the times! Make sure you catch the short video, until next time - I’m out boys!

The second week of flushing. Some of the leaves from the bottom of the plant are already yellow or light green. It seems that now she consumes the nutrient buildup from the bottom leaves. Still milky trichomes, but I spotted a few amber. Also, the buds gained a purple shade, looks awesome! week 14

Rainbow melon, a marvelous genetic I’ve never seen such a rigorous plant. I’ve never to plant before so we’ll see how it goes like that but if there’s a chance, I can have fat cola all the way around I’m going to do it has some trouble with her on my first one so a little scared, but we’ll see how she handles it. 🔥🙏

Lights are at 27 inch now. I moved them way back because I forgot I had a seedling in my tent and it needs a lot of distance to keep it chill(Er). I also think after a ton of reading and looking around, I had my lights way too close. I see my Candida is now starting to get deeper green leaves already instead of the bleached white/green she has. Watered with work casting tea. Em1+Epsom salt+a splash of Gaia power bloom. Fungus gnats are still hanging around but seem to have lost population. Also noted that sf2000 have a temperature of 4700k for cameras. Temperatures have been lower even though winter is ending. We aren't running our heat as much, so the ambient temperature in my room is lower. Plants still enjoy 21c weather during the day, and 19 at night. I am periodically opening the windows and hitting the room with 13/16 degree weather during the day and at night to pump these girls with some stress hormones. Lights higher now at 24ish inches.

Week 24 of growth, and this is the second week of flowering for the Pineapple Upside Down. Flowering has clearly declared itself now, with the first pistils appearing across the plant. That part is good news, but visually, the plant still isn’t where I’d like it to be. The foliage color is off, and I’m being honest: it makes me question the final yield potential. This probably won’t be the best run, but there’s no reason to panic or to quit. The plan is to keep things stable, finish the cycle cleanly, and take the lessons. Important timing clarification: this cultivar is advertised at around 45 days of total flowering, so we’re not “around day 45.” We’re simply early in flower, and the plant is already showing pistils properly. Stretch has remained quite limited so far. Is that purely genetics, or is it also influenced by the plant not being in peak shape? Hard to say. Either way, in a grow tent, limited stretch is honestly a comfortable scenario. Feeding-wise, the key point isn’t “soft feeding.” We’re staying under EC 2.0, with 2.0 as a ceiling, but the real note for this week is: no PK booster yet. For now, we hold the base feeding steady, and we’ll introduce PK later, progressively, depending on how the plant responds. So the strategy is simple: stabilize the environment, avoid adding stress, and let flowering build at its own pace. Next week we’ll reassess color, vigor, and early bud development, then decide when and how to ramp up.

They were all very slow to start compared to all the other strains I grew and seemed to dislike everything I was doing. Real problem children.... They were runty until about the last 2 weeks of their lives, then really packed it on and ripened quickly. I was really surprised they weighed as well as they did, but they all really fattened up with I added the other QB, bringing the total wattage to 360w in the 5 sq ft space. Didn't keep separate weights, but the total was 168g...roughly 40g's per plant. Final thoughts: Of the 6 DD's I've grown over the past couple of years, they are consistently a pain in my ass, and poor-producers.. but it's top-shelf bud. It's prolly the wife's favorite flavor, so I gotta grow a little every season... Aroma: 9/10 Flavor: 9/10 Potency: 8/10 Yield: 6/10 Bag-appeal: 8/10 Ease of growing: 3/10

Nothing new, i will add commentary later in the week. Edit: Everything seems nice and cool, 2 of the plants are just growing 4th node, 2 of the plants are growing 5th. Tommorow i will top for the first time. I will add video of that. Day 16 - I increased the light intensity from 40% to 50%. Day 17 - I watered with increased dosage, 750 ml per plant. I kept voodoo juice in becouse i wanted to make sure of establishing good rhizobial colonies (root bacterias that are prosperous for your plant - don't be afraid to ask any informations in the comments), the bacterias need food to stay alive and i started in 20 liter pots with small amount of water volumes per feed, so to make sure there will be some in the future i kept it there in the first bigger feed batch of this run. Day 18 - topping(kinda fimming) above 4th node. Bending plants to the ground using rubber covered wire by AC Infinity. Adding video of topping. Also, when topping, i clean scissors in denatured alcohol (technical ethanol) after every plant - every detail matters, don't risk spreading any disease, these can be brought even in the seeds!

Week 8 Looking absolutely huge😂 They’re so tall and wide . Lots of healthy green leaves and strong roots. I was worrying a lot about sex issues as when I did my research I found out they’re quite common to hermaphrodite. Was really worrying but all calyx’s have female signs (so far🙏🏻) so pray for me brothers&sisters.

Day 64: Started flushing the girls today. Got All milky and starting to go amber. Day 65: Still flushing. The girls smell amazing. I have one in the bunch that is SUPER airy and I am just not sure what is going on with her. It's the girl that I accidently broke off the main cola a while back. Not sure if that has anything to do with it or not. Day 66: No new updates. Cut one of the colas off for a taste test and trial run on drying as this is my first go. Figure if I can dry this super dense beauty with no issue, I will be able to dry the rest. Have it hung up in the spare bathroom. Stays roughly 71° in our house and I'd say roughly 40%ish humidity. Day 67: Girls are smelling really nice! I keep looking at trich's and looks like no change. They are all cloudy and only a few amber from what I see. Still new to it so no tellin! Day 68: No updates. Day 69: Girls still looking good. My bud is still drying and looking super hideous. I feel it is drying slow enough but sure doesn't look or feel dense as it did when cut. Will know in several days to come when fully dry. Day 70: Girls smell dank and look the same! No new updates at this time.

day 14 added 1/2tbsp magnesium sulfate in 5gal water along with regular flower water amendments. 1gal of water per day average, bridal and thunder can take more water. Ph 6.8 today day 15 I will defoliate in a few days :) day 15 video, you see some stem action day 16 video day 17 I added (4x20w daisy-chained)80w of poop purple ancient leds Keep adding soluble PK, organic booster etc. I see the stacks relax on defoliation for a few days, maybe tomorrow morning (skip day21) I feel like I will be able to chop week 6-7 as my last grow, push hard fast-continue everything is great, soon bridal and thunder will require 1gal water per day. I would like to see even more mass. I'm extremely happy, starting to see frost day18. BIG UPDATE many short vids of final defoliation(ahead of "day 21"). Wild amendments appeared! Any recommendations for a lawnmower? Bridalparty stretched over an inch overnight, led touch diode burn on 1 spot. Raised lights slightly, Added new amendments into water. Bridal wants to drink more than 1gal per day, So I will be using almost 5gal-ish water per day not denying the plant needs-watering. I am very happy! defoliation took about 4h today.

I’m back to an old mix a did few times and it was best results of my runs : - Pachamama soil - Batmix @plagron_official 🦇 - worms Humus @biobizzwwo Last dayyyy! I replace spiderfarmer sf1000 by 2x mars hydro sp150 ! I’ll wait a little bit the root get stronger and I’ll turn it into flower next week! If the height explode, I’ll turn her sooner, but for the moment, I control the size !

So I posted a video here as well as Instagram (@familytrees19) of my attempt at making my own automated feed. I got some tweets to do but so far looking great! So this week was great good growth and smelling nice!! I am most likely gonna flip these babies Monday or Tuesday. I can’t wait to see this light in action with flowering!! Oh Ye I had a quick power outage this Morning I had to redo all my timers and check to make sure they turned on at the proper time, all my tents but this one! This one has the AMAZING kind led k5 Wi-Fi xl1000 it went right back to schedule! I checked and it was like nothing happened! What a great light really plug in set it up and that’s it! Anyways hopefully next week I’ll have a video of my automated feed in 💯 working

Thought these girls had a lot longer to go than they did. They had some white pistils still so I hadn’t even checked trichomes. When I checked they looked how I wanted them, but I waited about 6 more days when the pistils had also went all orange. I think it was 7/1 that I took them down. They hung for 10 days in the dark at about 60/72 (couldn’t get temp down anymore). Then I got to trimming and also trying to get rid of any stupid hairs from the ninja cat incident. I got like 98%. With my phone camera I can see a couple I still need to get. Ugh. Never again. This weed is hairy enough on its own lol. Makes the whole thing look orange. Plant 1- 125g Plant 2- 113g Buds only. No trim counted
