Some light mania has me itching for projects. I have tiny pots, a bunch of free seeds and no space. Could I grow them by the window under a desk lamp? I might be able to tuck them into the tent if they actually grow for me. I want to try out some LST for cute bonsai-style trees. I’m not confident that I will have much success but this is purely a learning experiment. Let’s see how much I can abuse these autos 😅 - Sept 22 AM: Popped 3 Cookie Dog autoflower seeds into a glass of bottled spring water for a pre-soak of 14 hours. - Sept 22 PM: Put the seeds into folded paper towel, ceramic plate, more bottled spring water, uncovered in warm room. - Sept 23 AM: One seed has started to pop after only 10 hours! - Sept 23 PM: The seeds have all cracked but haven’t grown tap roots yet. I planted the 3 seeds into various small pots to finish germinating in seeding mix instead so I would stop checking on them in the paper 🙃 - Sept 24: nothing happening above ground. They are in the tent with lights 24/0 so I covered them with larger pots to give some darkness. Placed pots on a heating mat. - Sept 25 AM: the 2 seeds in the smallest pots have emerged! The were touching the plastic wrap when I checked on them so I hope they are ok. - Sept 27 PM: 1st seedling doing good, 2nd seedling still has her seed leaves closed so I’m misting her, and 3rd.. I accidentally flipped her pot over. She’s gone. First Impressions: Seeds germinated in soil after 36 hours, 72 hours from when I first left them to pre-soak and let the seeds crack in paper towel 24 hours.. that was 24-48 hours faster than the other test groups that used paper towel method until tap root formed and waiting for the germinated seed to emerge.. I might skip waiting for a tap root in paper towel going forward but I do like knowing the seed is viable before putting in soil so I know if it doesn’t grow it was something I did wrong. End of week thoughts.. Well.. I fucked around with these seeds too much, exposed the roots to light, let them almost dry out, dropped them, had the temps too low, the heating mat too hot, kicked out over.. 😅😅 I didn’t really give them a chance and yet still somehow I got 2 contenders in pint sized pots 🤷‍♀️the experiment continues..

A lot of growth this week, the back right is rather spindly and tall compared to the rest so will need to train her down quite a bit I think. I have some soft ties coming in the post tomorrow so will be doing some extensive LST over the next few days, aiming to spread out taller plants and giving the shorter ones a chance to catch up. I did do some HST this week, but I botched a few up and had to add a splint to one of them. The tall one also has a couple yo-yo supports as she was leaning over a little bit. PH swings are less frequent but do happen from time to time, went as low as 4.7 PH during lights out but doesn’t seem to have affected them. I am determined to have an even canopy by the end of the transition period this time 💪

It's that exciting time again—time to dive into the enchanting journey of my beloved Purple Lemonade FF as she strides confidently into Week 5 of flowering. Defoliation Drama Unveiled! As the grand finale approaches, I made a daring decision to perform a defoliation dance with my purple beauty. Now, don't worry, it's not as dramatic as it sounds! Think of it like a plant makeover. I carefully removed a select few fan leaves to allow the inner sanctum of the plant to breathe. This move allows more light to reach those budding sites, ensuring that every nugget gets its chance to shine. The result? A lush canopy where each bud twinkles like a star in the night sky. Fruits of Our Labor: Bigger is Better! Oh, but the fruits of our labor! They're a sight to behold. The buds have grown into massive, magnificent marvels that stretch toward the heavens. Imagine holding a juicy lemon the size of your palm—that's the kind of awe we're talking about! Their aroma wafts through the air, teasing the senses and promising an explosion of flavors and fragrances when the time is ripe. The Symphony of Purple and Trichomes And now, let's talk about the color show happening here. It's like the Northern Lights decided to pay a visit to my grow space! Delicate shades of purple are dancing across the buds, creating a breathtaking tapestry of colors that's straight out of an artist's dream. But wait, there's more! It's practically snowing trichomes in there. These tiny, glistening structures cover the buds like a shimmering blanket, and trust me, it's a sight that warms any grower's heart. Mother Nature's Artistry in Action Nature truly is the best artist, and our Purple Lemonade FF is her masterpiece. Each leaf, each bud, each trichome is a stroke of perfection. This journey reminds me that we're not just gardeners; we're cultivators of beauty, patience, and endless wonder. A Glimpse of the Journey And as promised, here's a sneak peek of this week's snapshot from the grow room. Feast your eyes on the splendor of my purple queen standing tall amidst her sisters of diverse genetics. It's a visual symphony that fills the heart with joy and gratitude. Cherish the Journey As we approach the next chapter of this remarkable journey, I'm reminded once again that it's not just about the end result; it's about the experience, the love, and the lessons we gather along the way. So, my fellow green-thumbed adventurers, let's cherish every moment, celebrate every bud, and keep growing with passion and joy. Thanks for joining me on this magical ride. Until the next chapter unfolds, keep those hearts and plants thriving! Genetics - Fast Buds Purple Lemonade FF Ligth - Lumatek ZEUS 465 COMPACT PRO

https://lumatek-lighting.com/ <3 <3 <3 Growers love to you all <3 <3 <3 " Arising from a cross between purple and citrus Cali genetics, Purple Lemonade FF (Fastflowering) offers a complex high made up of perfectly balanced cerebral and body effects that are ideal for daytime use. Expect an extremely enjoyable high that boosts your mood while deeply relaxing your whole body and getting rid of muscle pain. This meticulous cross produces up to 550 g/m2 of some of the most beautiful purple buds, with pinkish and reddish hues that will catch everyone’s attention. The beautiful purple buds are ready for harvest in 7-8 weeks and come hand-in-hand with unbelievably sugary citrus terps that are just as refreshing as a cold lemonade on a hot Summer day. It’s the ideal variety for the sweet-tooth stoner seeking strains that deliver both in quality and quantity of resin. Bud Description Purple Lemonade FF grows chunky, spade-shaped buds that boast a whole range of pinkish-purple hues with rich, dark orange pistils shooting out of every direction. This variety stands out for the, oftentimes, lilac trichomes that give them a gorgeous pink tint and make for outstanding purple concentrates. The buds give off a delicious tart lemon aroma that reveals a sweeter, more fruity scent as you break the buds open. Definitely a must for flavor chasers and those looking for pungent terpene profiles. Smoke Reports Purple Lemonade FF offers an effect that’s just as unique as the flavor. Expect a potent uplifting high that gives you that energy boost you need to get things done while 100% happy and stress-free. The effect gradually transforms into a wave that works its way along the limbs and through the muscles, deeply relaxing your body and putting you in the right mindset to go through a busy day with a huge smile on your face. This is an excellent all-day smoke as it not only increases energy but can also help combat chronic pain, migraine and stress. Plant Appearance This feminized photoperiod variety develops a thick and strong structure, growing a medium-sized main cola with multiple shorter side branches, typical of hybrid strains. Purple Lemonade FF develops fairly short internodal spacing with gorgeous purple buds growing stacked on top of each other, making it the perfect choice for growers of all levels looking to get lots and lots of top-shelf purple weed, as this variety can produce up to 550 g/m2 in a 7-8 week flower cycle. Grow Tips This is a super fast feminized photoperiod version that takes approximately 7-8 weeks to flower with a 5-week vegetation cycle,, this means you can have faster harvests by shortening the veg cycle or have a longer veg cycle for bigger yields. Purple Lemonade FF (Fastflowering) makes for a great candidate for growers of all levels as it’s a vigorous strain that will thrive with basic maintenance both indoors and outdoors. This is a resin powerhouse so make sure to have your trim bin close by as all the resinous sugar leaves will make for the most mouth-watering hash and extracts. Flavor Expect a long-lasting citrus zest that taste just like it smells. Purple Lemonade FF reeks of a delicious blend of sweet fruits and tart citrus that’ll make your mouth water. On the inhale, expect sour flavors that taste just like lemon candy with hints of orange and a really subtle earthy background. And on the exhale, the citrus flavors open up, giving place to a more sugary berry fruitiness that leaves your whole mouth tasting like an extremely sweet weed-infused lemonade.

Week 11 Update – Harvest Time Approaching! 🌱✂️ BioBizz#1 – BT51 She’s done! She hasn’t had any water for the past five days and will be harvested later this week. AN#4 – BT51 She still needs a little more time—probably another 1-2 weeks before she’s fully ready. AN#3 – BT47 Somehow, she’s managing despite the extremely close distance to the light. I haven’t held back on PPFD at all, but she’s handling it like a champ. Super curious to see what kind of yield she’ll bring in! 😅

It's not ideal to have new grow almost done grow and drying in the same room but if that keeps the smells from being to strong so be it. Legalization is the key you can have a dangerous hobby distillery Going on and nobody Bats a eye destroying life's etc etc But i cannot grow a plant that helps and is completely save to Grow with technology these days i pay my bills and i grow ONLY for my family What's wrong with that ?????

Day 122 Flower 59 Remaining 16!??! so close to flush!!!! OK so I think everything is going great! I'm guessing/ hoping the yellowing leaves is just the plant nearing the end. Though why is just the one plant starting to yellow already? Had to use about 12 yo yo's to help the leaning buds. Some of these poor branches are barely holding on under the weight hahaha Gonna get a little 24x24x48 drying tent. I'll move the carbon filter there for a couple weeks. wont need it in the big tent for a few days. Hope I'm not forgetting anything here. I'll go over the comments I'm sure its in there, but if its not, how do I know when to start the flush??! and do you only give water? I use RO, do you check the PH and adjust that and thats it? You can see in a couple pics the plant on the right is much shorter and the colas are all rounded. weird. My plan for harvest. was planning on using that drying tent...... with a osculating fan at the bottom? or not needed? At harvest I was gonna cut off branch, trim the fan leaves only then hang upside down in the tent. trimming the sugar leaves after drying before curing. All G??

It was a busy week full of events. I got them a 600 watts HPS light and microbes to help them grow faster. I finally started the trellis netting to even the canopy and get more from the lights and I also spray the plants again for bugs. I found out that I've been using powder nutrients on my reservoir and that's probably why I've been getting floods two or tree times a week and now the valve is open only when I'm there, because I'm sick of cleaning and I took that little sick plant out. My cats have her now.

1-2-2022 A solution has been found and implemented. A simple quick project that cost little and not much time to make. Works very well. She is responding to her new environment and soon she will be into her new home in true Aeroponic spray only fashion. 😎

Last big feeding before I start to flush. It looks like the blue dream is not gonna make it. I will pull it out and make room form my vegetable garden seedlings. I might as well use the light that's all ready on, I have some tomato and pepper plants sprouting as we speak. Back to the Buddha I have a concern about the Think different that it might get bud rot from being so dense and only one cola. the FAST BUDS 420 Genetics are impressive. I think on the next run I will get a better yield as I will have a record of their veg and flower times accordingly. I can really dial in the feeding schedule. The Carmelicious is really doing well they are all starting to smell sweet and fruity. My target harvest day is 1/20/20 a little over 2 weeks from now I will give them there last CAL MAG / SILICA PH 6.0 watering today 1/5/20 as the pots have dried out from the last Big Feeding. They will eat up what ever is left in the coco this week and the flush with the Clean Fruits From GREEN BUZZ Nutrients will be all that is left for the last weeks. I will be Dope Scoping the Trichomes in 2 weeks 90% cloudy 10% amber, this will be my harvest window indicator. I hope to see the fan leaf fade starting next week that way I will no that the food is gone from the coco and that plant will start using its reserves. Until next time, a toast. To wives and girlfriends may the two never meet😉

NCH x SB is starting to fade significantly and has stopped throwing out new pistils, trichomes are significantly cloudy and a few on the sugar leaves are beginning to turn amber. Debating whether I should pull her at full cloudy in a week or two or wait until I see more amber. Sour Kush is still fattening up and has a lot of white pistils yet to mature, trichomes are of course a mixture of clear/milky, no fade on this plant yet. Tangerine Dream is making great progress in flowering and bud sites have thickened up considerably, trimmed a majority of larfy bud sites on this plant since the discrepancy in the distance to the light was so large. Water pH 6.15, EC 0.4. Feed pH 6.15, EC 0.717.

End of week 2 of flower - Everything is running smoothly after installing my AC Infinity inline fan the environment has been extra easy to keep under control. The smell is getting stronger by the day and the ladies are fattening up nicely, especially my Purple Lemonade from FastBuds she doesn’t seem to be showing a lot of purple which I was really hoping for and she is also the fastest flowering plant in my grow. All the other plants were selected to have a longer flowering period. I defoliated slightly.

One thing I’ve taken from this grow is that I think I’ll be trying organic soil style indoor growing after my current Coco hempy run. I feel as though the main thing this would benefit is overall taste and smoke smoothness, of which i feel a difference, but want to test the results myself before determining so in my personal growing experiences. Thanks for reading me ramble on about this plant I love. Cheers
