Week 10: I loved growing this strain, it smelled so fruity while the buds were on the plant. Towards the end of flowering the buds looked sugar dipped as described on the website. The sap from inside the stems smells like skittles and sugar lol which was a nice surprise! Most pistils are Amber so idk what the THC/CBD ratios are going to be. Il give an estimate once buds are cured for 2 weeks or so! So I’ve managed to get some street weed to compare alongside my own weed and I’ve added the pictures to the harvest so you guys can see them. I tried to pick the best street weed from about 4 varieties so here we go... The street weed is called Wedding Cake, my weed is obviously Smoothie and I suppose what I want to know is how the street weed looks, does it look healthy? Any guesses as to how it was dried or cured if even? The first noticeable thing is that the street weed stems are huge and the sugar leaves seem to be left on the plant to dry too. Although I did leave sugar leaves on this time I feel that it’s not very professional. I have smoked a joint of the wedding cake and it’s not all that great, feel a bit sedated/couch locked but not high or happy if you know what I mean :) but yeah please let me know what you think in the comments :) Curing Update: (1) Been curing for a week and buds are definitely smoking much better now, the taste and burn still isn’t amazing as it needs a few more weeks curing but it’s unique and exotic. It’s very strong when it comes to THC, because it still needs further curing you could smoke a whole joint and think damn that’s still too fresh to get me blazed. By the end of the joint you would be struggling to keep a conversation or stand up, Stoned eyes that even eye drops won’t cure :’D and it’s also a real head high in my opinion, audio/visuals definitely enhanced too, everything is extremely bright, sharp and sounds great! I don’t really care about time of day smoke as i could need something stronger at different times for pain etc but this is definitely a Nighttime smoke, it hits so hard that the best thing you can do is put on some music and close your eyes or watch a movie. An amazing strain for zoning out entirely into some chill music and if you need weed to deal with strong physical or mental pain or sleep problems then I would recommend giving this a go as so far it has been a lifesaver for me. Curing Update: (2) So I think the buds have been curing for just over 2 weeks now and they are looking great and smoking pretty well too. A few more days drying wouldn’t have hurt them but I’m not worried as my Blue Cheese and Pineapple Express harvests are just around the corner! I added some lovely photos and a video to show you guys how it looks And I’m just about to blaze up a joint from the last photo and tell you all how it smokes too... (Lights up joint) Slightly damp on lighting it up although it burns near perfect. Instant hit on the back of the throat with smooth/mango flavors. I feel a bit dizzy quite quickly and want to sit down and listen to music after a few tokes followed by a relaxed or mellow feeling. I’m about halfway through the joint now and I’m pretty stoned. Definitely sweet and smooth like blueberry also sherbet sweet like mango! I’m almost finished my joint now and I suppose to sum up I’d say that it’s much like the blueberry smoothness you expect mixed with the strength from a well grown mango. I felt that the effects are great if your in a nice comfortable setting, get relaxed, be creative, watch a movie or even get ready to sleep. I would avoid anything that requires a lot of effort. Personally I’ve had minimal problems with getting to sleep and with anxiety while taking this throughout the day and would highly recommend it! It’s the best thing I’ve grown so far :) Il leave a final review on the buds in 2 weeks, until then take care and happy growing! Curing Update (3) - 05/03/20 So I’ve finished the smoothie buds and I have to say they were great. The only negative was it’s my first time drying buds with trim and they could have done with a little longer drying. I made some canna butter from 3G of trim and 2.25g of bud. I made ginger cupcakes with salted caramel icing. You guys can see it cause I added a photo. I can only eat 2 per day with a heavy tolerance - sedative cupcakes hahah. And check out my blue cheese and Pineapple Express diaries as it’s harvest time!

Getoppte Dame in 70L. Ein paar Knollen hatten Mehltau oder Fäule. Verlust max 5g, Glück gehabt😇 Riecht leicht nach diesel dabei viel citrus, manchmal auch ein wenig nach bitter Schokolade bzw. dunkel erdig 🤓 Super resistent gegen alles. Für Europa super geeignet. Die anderen Damen im greenhouse bleiben noch stehen

Good morning little miss sunshine. Using heatmat at 24°C for the first week. Light Power: 40% Soil in the final pot: I use 80% Dope Soil - florganics & 20 % garden compost. The soil was used by two grow sessions before. In the last one I added the compost. For this grow I added a 1/2 cup Dolomite limestone in the middle layer of the earth. To prevent Ca, Mg deficiency. Covered with 5cm old mulch. Watering with 2,5L tapwater and let it flow DAY 6 Cover open and she can feel the first breeze. DAY 7 Welcome in the final 25L pot .

July 15 - Temp(High/Low) 27/15 Rain(mm) 0.0 July 16 - Temp(High/Low) 26/17 Rain(mm) 0.0 July 17 - Temp(High/Low) 25/14 Rain(mm) 3.6 July 18 - Temp(High/Low) 26/19 Rain(mm) 9.5 July 19 - Temp(High/Low) 30/20 Rain(mm) 0.3 July 20 - Temp(High/Low) 25/17 Rain(mm)13.6 July 21 - Temp(High/Low) 23/17 Rain(mm) 0.0 This week was wet and hot and muggy. Got some nice growth going on. She survived the thunderstorms that blew through.

Ladies are doing great, finally fixed the pH problem, so the lockout should be fixed. Great growth, amazingly icy buds, especially pheno #1 is looking incredible. Smells of sour cherry candy with some hints of that gelato too.

She is much prettier than she was a week ago :) I remembered that I have my first grow light, which is more compact and it will give me more space, so I changed my light, now the girl's side branches get light too:) I add a lot of video memes, because I really want to win Iphone16 pro ;) and those who don't take risks don't drink champagne:) good luck to everyone.

Not an overly impressive strain and I would say she was not that hard to grow. If I even grew this one again I would let it go naturally with some LST. Wanted more grape flavours but they don't really come through in the smoke. There's a bit of a sharp fruity smell that's sort of piney with a hint of fuel at the end. The smoke is not too flavourful in my opinion but that just means I didn't grow it well. Super tight nugs so be careful with humidity as stated above. Also she's a bit of a light feeder so be careful with your nutes. As you can see I burnt her tips and over fed her a lot. Not a bad yield though! I've only really smoked the lowers on this one so far so that gave me a bit of a racey high, just slightly racey. I would accredit that to the lowers not being mature enough at chop. The plant is super dense and since I mainlined it the lowers didn't receive enough light. I tried to let the lowers mature more but the plant stopped maturing when I chopped the tops, this caused stress and the plant just shut down basically. Not sure if I would grow Blimburn's GDP again until I grow the real GDP.

Día 49

Flower stretch and bud sites are setting. Lots of tops from the lst. Fingers crossed.

The plants are settling into their new shoes. They have just had water and elite 91 roots as there is some Greenhouse Bio Grow in the soil mix. I am going to try and make some KNF nutrients this week to boost the growth phase.

After some research I decided to go for Advanced Nutrients for all amendments. Starting slow and building towards flower, then adding some Bud Candy. These plants really took off lol, shit got out of hand and I let them run a little, I'm definitely a habitual defoliator, I cant stop clipping when I really should just let them be, anyway I moved the tent out of the Closet space as its a friendlier time of year so they don't need the extra protection, kinda why I let them go, Season 1 needed to be smaller in height as they would have suffered outside the tent. Still topped and administered some LST, tried some clips out, but they were far too small and ended up snapping a stem. Would like to give them a go again but will research a bit more next time and not just go for Amazon crap. So far in terms of holding things down I really like the early pegs in the soil approach. I also tried some trellis netting this time, definitely like it and will be more prepared next time. Had to bail for an Easter break so a buddy came through and watered in nuets for me. SKOG was noticeably more Sativa-esque, thinner, stretchier. Runtz with the fatter leaves.

Using Ripen for a week now, 3 more days or so and then flush for 3 days Then harvest will be at day 56

Week 13 : Six Shooter So i've been looking into these plants' trichomes daily, sometimes twice daily, they're all really really cloudy, like full white, completely curled in. Some have a slight beige tint to them, so i'm guessing that's the first few ambers ! That means it's time for the chop ! these wrapped up their second week of flush with three x additive flush. To flush you water until run off then add 20% which is just about 4 pints for me. Now i'm at the end of the grow i can say that the full tent is a good idea, but it does get crowded and that will surely affect my yield as there are a fair few colas that are totally f-ed in the sense they are thin, skinny, a tiny bit of flower with just a few pistills... so those are useless and they're going into my bubble hash project, so let's see, maybe i can extract value out of the trim , the popcorn buds, and the rest of the plant ! Wish me luck and drop me a message, i'm chopping these down real soon ! 🚀

💙 Project Blue Tent – Week 8 Pickle Lemon Haze F1 – Pheno A (Folder 14A) Hello everyone, and welcome back to another chapter of Project Blue Tent! 💙🌱 If you're discovering this diary for the first time, welcome aboard. Project Blue Tent follows four individual plants from seed to harvest, with each phenotype receiving her own dedicated diary. All four sisters share the same tent, lighting, irrigation, nutrition, environmental conditions and training strategy. The purpose is simple: Keep the variables as consistent as possible... and let the plants tell their own story. And this week, that story is getting very exciting. Because the Blue Tent has officially entered flowering. 🌸 Today we're checking in with Pickle Lemon Haze F1 – Plant A. And just like her sisters... She's growing fast. Very fast. ──────────────────────── 🌸 Week Eight – And Suddenly Everything Accelerates There are moments in a grow where you can almost feel the plants changing from one day to the next. This is one of those moments. After seven weeks of vegetative growth, the Blue Tent has finally moved to 12/12. And the girls seem to have taken that as a personal invitation to accelerate. Plant A is now approximately 81 cm tall, compared with roughly 60 cm when we finished vegetation. That's around 20 cm of growth already, and the whole room is behaving similarly. But what's fascinating isn't simply the vertical growth. They're developing everywhere. New flowering sites are becoming increasingly obvious. Branches are extending. Nodes are developing. The plants are changing shape almost by the hour. They're not simply stretching... They're building. And Plant A is right there with them. ──────────────────────── 🌿 Pickle Lemon Haze F1 – Plant A Plant A has always been one of the girls that catches my attention. She's vigorous. She's responsive. She's incredibly determined. And now that flowering has started, that personality is becoming even more obvious. The canopy remains remarkably even despite the amount of growth happening above it. Her branches are strong, her foliage remains healthy and the developing flowering sites are appearing rapidly throughout the structure we spent weeks building. This is exactly why we documented these plants individually. From a distance, all four sisters can look remarkably similar. But when you spend time with each one... You start noticing the little differences. Plant A has that particular combination of speed, structure and enthusiasm that has been present since the beginning. And right now... She's absolutely flying. ──────────────────────── 💥 Super Cropping – Trying to Keep Up With Her With this amount of growth happening so quickly, we're continuing with super cropping as another way of managing the most vigorous vertical shoots. The objective isn't to stop the plants from growing. At this point, I'm not sure anything could stop them. 😂 It's about trying to influence the structure while they're stretching aggressively. Some of the taller branches are being carefully worked to reduce their dominance and hopefully encourage stronger branching points as the plant continues developing. And the funny part? These girls simply refuse to stay down. I'll work a branch... Give it some time... And she'll be standing back up again like nothing happened. Plant A is particularly impressive in that regard. She seems to have one answer to everything: Grow. 😂🌱 Whether this will ultimately be enough to keep the stretch under control remains to be seen. The temperatures, the seven-week vegetative period and the sheer vigour of these plants are all factors. But for now, the canopy remains beautifully manageable. So we continue observing and adapting. ──────────────────────── 😳 Well... I May Have Broken a Branch And then there's the part of growing that nobody wants to talk about... Sometimes you make a mistake. This week, while working with Plant A, I managed to break a branch. Yep. It happened. I'm not going to pretend it didn't. I'm also not going to turn it into some dramatic disaster. Plants are resilient. Training doesn't always go perfectly. Sometimes a branch moves differently than expected, sometimes there's a little too much pressure, and suddenly you're standing there looking at the plant thinking: "I'm so sorry, my dear." 😂🌱 I immediately tried to support and repair the damaged section, and now we'll simply give her some time and see how she responds. At the moment, there's nothing here that makes me alarmed. It's one branch. The rest of the plant is growing beautifully. And honestly... This is also part of documenting a real grow. Not every training session is perfect. Not every decision goes exactly according to plan. Sometimes you make a mistake. You learn from it. You carry on. And Plant A certainly isn't letting one damaged branch stop her. ──────────────────────── 🌱 A Fast-Developing Flowering Plant What really stands out this week is just how quickly these plants are evolving. The flowering sites aren't sitting there waiting patiently. They're developing rapidly. The structure we created during vegetation is now being populated with new growth, and the difference between the beginning of the week and the end is already noticeable. This is also why I'm glad we spent the time building the canopy properly. The SCROG gave us a much more even starting structure. The defoliation opened up the interior. And now the plants have room to develop into that structure. We're going to see exactly how much they use it. ──────────────────────── 💡 Starting Flower Under Strong Light The Blue Tent is now running 12/12, and we're starting flowering at approximately 800 PPFD. That's a deliberate decision. After seven weeks of vegetation, these plants have a substantial canopy and are showing very high levels of growth activity. Rather than gradually creeping toward flowering intensity, I'm giving them strong light from the beginning and watching their response. The goal is to provide enough usable light to support this rapidly developing canopy while continuing to monitor the environmental side of the equation. And because the girls are already stretching aggressively... The next couple of weeks should be very interesting. I'm curious to see whether the strong light helps keep the canopy relatively compact... Or whether these ladies simply decide: "Thank you for the extra photons. We'll use all of them to grow another 30 centimetres." 😂 We'll see. ──────────────────────── 🌡️ Blue Tent Environment The environment remains remarkably consistent throughout the room. This week's recorded conditions were: • 🌡️ Day Temperature: 27°C • 🌙 Night Temperature: 27°C • 💧 Relative Humidity: 67% • 🥥 Substrate Temperature: 24°C • 💦 Nutrient Solution Temperature: 19.2°C • ⚗️ pH: 5.81 • ⚡ EC: 2.09 mS/cm • 💨 CO₂: approximately 666 ppm • 💡 Light Schedule: 12/12 • 💧 Irrigation: approximately 1.4 L/plant/24h • ? Pot Size: 8 L • 📏 Plant Height: approximately 81 cm One thing I'm watching particularly closely is the temperature difference between day and night... Or rather, the lack of one. We're currently sitting around 27°C during both periods. Warmer nights can encourage additional stretch, and these plants certainly don't need much encouragement. 😂 So I'm keeping that in mind while watching how the canopy develops. For now, however, the plants are showing no signs that they're unhappy with the environment. ──────────────────────── 🥥 Feeding – Now in Flowering Mode The nutrition has also moved into the flowering program. Current feeding: • Plagron Hydro A — 2 ml/L • Plagron Hydro B — 2 ml/L • Plagron Hydro Roots — 1 ml/L • Plagron Power Buds — 1 ml/L • pH Plus — 0.03 ml/L • pH Min — 0.03 ml/L Current EC: 2.09 mS/cm pH: 5.81 The change in nutrition is relatively measured. I'm not interested in throwing everything at the plants simply because the calendar says "flower." They're already consuming aggressively and developing incredibly quickly. So for now, the objective is to support that development while continuing to observe how Plant A responds. Her colour remains healthy. Growth remains vigorous. And the flowering sites are developing exactly as we'd hope. That's enough reason to stay consistent. ──────────────────────── 💧 The Drip & Drainage System – Working Together The automatic irrigation and drainage system has become a very important part of this project. Plant A is now receiving approximately 1.4 litres per 24 hours through the drip irrigation system. The process is beautifully straightforward. The drippers deliver the nutrient solution to the coco. The solution passes through the substrate and feeds the root zone. The runoff then enters the collection trays underneath the grow bags. From there, the drainage pipe carries the collected water toward the pump. The pump pulls that water away and returns it toward the reservoir. So the irrigation and drainage systems are working together as one continuous, recirculating setup. Water in. Coco. Roots. Runoff. Collection. Pump. Reservoir. And around we go again. It's almost like having a little circulatory system underneath the plants. And it's working wonderfully. As the plants become larger and their water demand increases, having that consistency becomes even more valuable. I don't have to manually reproduce the same watering and drainage routine every day. The system does it. The plants get their consistent irrigation. The runoff is handled. And I get to spend more time actually looking at the plants. That's exactly what I wanted. ──────────────────────── 🌿 Seven Weeks of Vegetation – Maybe We Overdid It? I'm going to admit something here. Looking at these girls now... I may have kept them in vegetation a little too long. 😂 Seven weeks isn't something I normally do. Usually, I'd be much more inclined to flip earlier. But the extra vegetative time gave us a fantastic canopy. Strong branches. Established roots. A full SCROG. A beautifully even structure. The downside? We now have four incredibly energetic plants with a huge amount of growth potential entering flowering at the same time. And they're showing us exactly what that means. Approximately 20+ cm of growth already. Flowering sites developing rapidly. Branches continuing to extend. Everything accelerating. So... Let's have faith. 😂💙 We've prepared them as well as we can. Now we get to see what happens. ──────────────────────── 🌸 Plant A – Ready for the Show Plant A's flowering transition has been particularly satisfying to watch. The framework we created during vegetation is clearly visible underneath the new growth. Her branches are well distributed. Her canopy remains relatively even. And the developing flowers are appearing throughout the structure rather than being concentrated into just a few dominant tops. That's the advantage of all those weeks of preparation. The plant isn't starting flower from scratch. She's entering it with a structure already designed to support what comes next. Now we just need to manage the incredible amount of growth she's producing. And hopefully... Keep her somewhat compact. No promises. 😂 ──────────────────────── 🧠 Managing Growth Without Fighting the Plant One of the lessons these girls are already teaching me is that there's a difference between managing growth and trying to completely control it. The plants have their own momentum. We can influence structure. We can redistribute growth. We can work with the branches. But ultimately... They're going to grow. And I think that's especially important to remember in a project like this. The goal isn't to force Plant A into exactly the shape I imagined. It's to create the best environment and structure possible, then observe how she expresses herself. Super cropping is one of the tools I'm using to help manage the most vigorous shoots. The strong lighting gives the canopy plenty of energy. The irrigation provides consistency. The nutrition supports the transition into flower. And the environment gives us the foundation. After that... Nature gets the final word. ──────────────────────── 💙 Plant A – Still One of the Stars There is something particularly satisfying about watching Plant A now. She's been through everything this project has thrown at her. Topping. Training. SCROG. Defoliation. The transition into flowering. And now a little accidental branch damage. And through all of it... She keeps growing. That says a lot about her. She's not delicate. She's not hesitant. She's vigorous and remarkably resilient. And although the four sisters continue to look impressively similar, Plant A still has that unmistakable personality we've been watching since the beginning. She wants to grow. So we'll let her grow... Just perhaps with a little guidance along the way. 😂🌱 ──────────────────────── 👀 Looking Ahead The next few weeks are going to be fascinating. The plants are already moving incredibly quickly, and we're only at the beginning of flowering. I'll continue watching the stretch closely. We'll keep using super cropping where necessary to manage particularly vigorous branches. We'll monitor the damaged branch and see how Plant A responds. The irrigation system will continue running its cycle. The flowering nutrition will continue supporting development. And the environment will remain under close observation, especially with those warm nights. For now, however... The canopy is still remarkably even. The flowering sites are developing rapidly. Plant A is healthy. And the whole room is absolutely full of energy. We may have vegged these girls a little longer than usual. We may have created more growth than we intended. But there's no point worrying about that now. The plants are ready. The lights are on 12/12. The flowers are coming. And we're going to enjoy the ride. ──────────────────────── 💙 Thank You A huge thank you to Zamnesia for making Project Blue Tent possible and for giving us the opportunity to explore these beautiful Pickle Lemon Haze F1 genetics individually. A heartfelt thank you to Plagron for the Premium Growbags and Hydro nutrient line supporting these girls throughout the project and now helping them enter flowering. A special thank you Zamnesia for the Phytonaut LED lighting helping us build such a strong and even canopy and now providing the intensity we're using as flowering begins. And a massive thank you to Mars Hydro for the automatic drip irrigation and drainage system. The way the drippers, coco, collection trays, drainage lines, pump and reservoir work together has made keeping four rapidly growing plants consistently irrigated considerably easier. Thank you as well to GrowDiaries for giving growers around the world a place to document these journeys, share experiences and learn together. And finally... Thank you to everyone following Project Blue Tent. Plant A has officially entered her next chapter. She's stretched. She's developing flowers. She's surviving my attempts to keep her under control. And yes... I owe her an apology for that broken branch. 😂💙 But she's still standing. Still growing. Still beautiful. And still showing us exactly why following four individual phenotypes under the same conditions is so much fun. The Blue Tent is officially flowering. The stretch is here. The flowers are developing. And Plant A is ready to put on a show. 🌸💙 Until next week... Growers Love, happy growing, and take care everyone! 🌱💙
