Growing this strain was such a pleasure! I vegged her for quite a bit at 86 days as I started her along with a dozen Autoflowers that were growing in my 4x8 tent. I wanted to wait until the Auto's finished up so that when I flipped the Meringue into flower I could move her into the 4x8 which has better environmental control, more light and co2 supplementation which I wanted to take advantage of to bring out the full potential of this awesome strain! From germination through the Fourth Week of Veg she grew in my 4x4 under a HLG Blackbird light set to 300W at the wall, on a 19/5 light schedule and was given only de-chlorinated water with FishShit Soil Conditioner added. I then switched her over to Dutch Pro nutrients for the remainder of the grow.She handled up to 1400ppms 2.8 EC of nutrients without skipping a beat and ended up with a marvelous dark maroon coloration with hints of red that were contrasted by the heavy, frosty coating of glistening trichomes she produced throughout the last 5 weeks of her 9 week flower, four of which she received 4 hours a day of supplemental UVA light. Once in the 4x8, I trellised off half of the tent and placed her under it. Once she was acclimated to her new home which only took two days, I flipped her light to 12/12 to induce flowering and sat back to watch the 'show' begin! By Week Two of flower she nearly had half of the 4x8 covered wall to wall! Keep in mind that she does have really wide node spacing so prepare yourself for daily 'leaf tucking' to ensure adequate light penetration through her canopy. All in all she was an absolute joy to grow and provided some of the most beautiful, pungent, dense and sticky flowers that I love so very much! I've cultivated this strain several times now and would recommend it, especially to experienced growers as sometimes she can be a bit finicky. The breeder recommends 30-45 day veg and advertises an 8 week flower. I vegged her for 86 days and flowered her for a full 9 weeks, the last two of which had the light cycle dropped to 10/14 to further induce trichome production (which along with the 72hrs. of dark apparently worked) which is a reminder to you new guy's that Breeder times are not 'cut in stone' and are a 'general recommendation'. Always know your plant and check the trichomes to determine exactly when the ideal harvest time has arrived as so many variables can affect harvest times. Grow Strong! 😎💚💚💚

It was a last week of flowering. Next week will post a photos of a harvest. Some conclusions from the current grow- It is looks like there was too much light. Many top leaves were too dry. Next grow will use only one 240W lamp

I THINK THERE IS PRE-FLOWER PERIOD, WHO AGREE AND WHOS NOT ;D

Good week. Issues found.

Defol near end of week

Hola familia, siento la ausencia estos últimos 8 días, pero estoy de vuelta, estás misty gorilla auto de Zambezaseeds, están fenómeno, ya empiezan a desprender aromas, y eso es agradable, espero que engorden más estas flores por lo demás va bien, entonces la temperatura la mantenemos por debajo de 26 la humedad por debajo del 40% , sigo alimentando las con Agrobeta, por supuesto, os voy adelantando que va a ver muchos cambios cara al futuro y para bien, os iré diciendo poco a poco. Un saludo fumetillas y buenos humos.

This week there was an incredible amount of growth. Even in the little runts the last 2 that popped up. Lots of different phenotypes in here. The variegated plant continues to show signs of stress no matter what I do I even moved it around trying to find a happy place for it but had no luck. Overall I’m happy with the progression considering these are only three weeks old. Strawberry Pie is starting to show her sex with some nice wispy pistols.

Day 99 Day 49 Flower 09/08/24 Friday (Morning) FLUSH- de-chlorinated tap water pH 6 with flawless finish. She's taken a full 5L with 1L run off, I shall continue to do this daily or every 1.5 days when top soil dries out. Starting her flush this week, seeing those trichomes maturing, and pistils now forming 50-60% red. Flush for 10-14 days depending on trichomes. Day 100 Day 50 Flower 10/08/24 Saturday (Evening) FLUSH- de-chlorinated tap water pH 6 with flawless finish. Another 5L and seeing about 10-15% run off. Not quite the 1L. Day 101 Day 51 11/08/24 Sunday (morning) FLUSH- de-chlorinated tap water pH 6 with flawless finish. 5L run off 10% Majority of pistils now maturing, trichomes flooded with cloudy , barely seen clear anymore, spotting a few amber's. Day 102 Day 52 Flower 12/08/24 Monday (Morning) FLUSH- de-chlorinated tap water pH 6 with flawless finish. 5L again with run off 10% Day 103 Day 53 Flower 13/08/24 Tuesday (Evening) FLUSH- de-chlorinated tap water pH 6 today again with flawless finish. Full 5L again with 10% run off. All fans starting to fade now, tops all bending under the weight 🤩 Euphoric sweet lemon zest smell with a gassy slap. Video and pictures ✌️💚 Day 105 Day 55 Flower 15/08/24 Thursday (end of week) Final FLUSH- de-chlorinated tap water pH 6 with flawless finish. Full 5L again little run. Finally!!!

Una genética que respondió con fuerza, sin complicaciones, y con un resultado final que promete tanto en efecto como en sabor. ¡Cosechamos fuerte con la Alien Moonrocks! 💪🛸

i started feeding them more water now, i feed them 4L water but i measured runoff at 2000+ ec i dont know if thats important the strawberry lemonade really outgrows all high levels. 2 look very healthy, the one looks like ph lockout i dont know how to fix that, i ll just look further if nothing more happens .. i will defoliate the strawberry lemonade day 14 and the healthy one at day 14 and defoliate the other one at day 21 maybe

Can't complain with another good week! More pistils are starting to turn orange and buds are looking good and healthy, I've got no burnt tips and so im guessing the nutrient mix is balance nicely after removing the silica after it kept reacting with the mix. Done another defoliation to get that light where it's needed, im very happy with these two plants as they are only my 2nd and 3rd plants I've ever grown. Thanks for stopping by✌️

It was easy to know when to harvest and hang to dry because of all the other great diary’s on this strain. I do wish she was bigger but the high quality buds make up for whatever I lost in yield.

last time amending, going to run the runts for another week as they are growing nicely. Winter finally showed up and had to turn on the heat mat. Root ball @25c now and growth has exploded.

Last week before harvest. Flushing with normal water PH 6.5. Trichomes looking good

I switched to new fertilizer, I used a little too much, but it's not a problem, I gave around 900 ppm to each plant, but I don't mind, flawless finish is available.

È stata una settimana molto calda e piena di bellissime giornate, il meteo è meraviglioso questo periodo. Le bellissime autofiorenti dutchfemseeds sono tutte vicinissime alla fase finale della fioritura e alcune sono già pronte per essere raccolte ma aspetteremo un altra settimana abbondante prima di raccogliere tutte le infiorescenze mature in maniera graduale. Molto colorate le mimosa Purple Kush e molto resinose, il resto delle varietà ognuna ha il suo aroma speciale ed inconfondibile,tutte molto resinose e piene di infiorescenze molto dure e cariche di resina appiccicosa. Sono felice perché queste varietà come sempre soddisfano a pieno le mie esigenze e sono spettacolari vederle fiorire nel giardino. Alcune sfiorano il metro ed ottanta centimetri di altezza con infiorescenze ovunque. Manca poco! Un abbraccio a tutti.

Nice;))))))

Welcome to week 13🤠 This week I have been doing a bit of LST every day, so I've been bussy. I have also trimmed her quite a bit She's stretching a lot, almost every day I have to tie her down. She also started showing more pistils, so I'm getting excited Watered her with ph7.19 water, run-off water was at ph5.79, So I still have to raise the pH, best before full-flowering Weather was worm this week and very sunny, but it should cool down again She's not that symmetrical, but still looks nice, I'll try on making her more good looking I've also got all the material for my drying box, so hopefully I'll make it soon And I'll be making a small roof so my harvest doesn't get ruined So I think this is all to be said, I'll edit this week if I forgot to say something or made some mistakes Otherewise see you soon!🤠🤠

Veg Week 4. Excellent week. 6th node appears. Looked at the leaves, and my guess, we are good to top. Topped plant on the 16th. As of 5 days later, the plant appears to have recovered and has started growing nicely again. We should be completing the 2nd topping within 10 days at most if I am correct.
