Flowering day 12 since time change to 12/12 h. Hey everyone โ˜บ๏ธ. Once again a wonderful week goes by ๐Ÿ˜€. It has developed so far and is now slowly starting to develop its flowers :-). As soon as the first forms of buds can be seen (I think in 5-10 days) 2 g GHSC Powder Feeding Bio Bloom per liter of substrate are added. In the third week, 1 g per liter of substrate is added so that it lasts through to the end :-). This week it was poured 3 times with 1 liter each ๐Ÿ‘. The entire tent was also cleaned and the electronics checked for functionality. The humidifier was refilled every day and fresh osmosis water was drained into the tank for the coming week โ˜บ๏ธ. The plants have all been checked for health and pests ๐Ÿ‘. Next week the bamboo sticks are inserted towards the end for support and the lowest shoots are removed so that at the end the energy is not wasted in the lower area ๐Ÿ‘. Otherwise there is nothing more to report this week :-). I wish you a lot of fun with the update ๐Ÿ˜Ž. Stay healthy and let it grow ๐Ÿ€. You can buy this Strain at : https://sweetseeds.es/de/red-mandarine-f1-fast-version/ Type: Red Mandarine F1 Fast Version โ˜๏ธ๐Ÿผ Genetics: Red Poison Autoยฎ๏ธ (SWS39) X Tangie (California Orange x Hybrid Skunk) ๐Ÿ‘ Vega lamp: 2 x Todogrow Led Quantum Board 100 W ๐Ÿ’ก Bloom Lamp : 2 x Todogrow Led Cxb 3590 COB 3500 K 205W ๐Ÿ’ก๐Ÿ’กโ˜๏ธ๐Ÿผ Soil : Canna Coco Professional + โ˜๏ธ๐Ÿผ Fertilizer: Green House Powder Feeding โ˜๏ธ๐Ÿผ๐ŸŒฑ Water: Osmosis water mixed with normal water (24 hours stale that the chlorine evaporates) to 0.2 EC.

This is it. The chop. Cut down the remaining plants this week (3 total). The trichs were around 30-50% amber. It really just depended on the branch I checked. Some nugs were almost 100% caramelized while others were like 20% amber. That was the goal for the remaining plants. This has been a great season. The Season This season went really (s)well. Nothing extraordinary other than I opted to use BT for the first time. I applied b.t. twice after I noticed caterpillars were starting to increase on the daily. They still appeared, but the damage was minimized. The 2 things that I made a mistake on was probably (1)not having the right size container for the first up-pot. I should've just placed the plants in slightly larger containers immediately. (2)Tropic orange didn't like getting moved around the garden when in flowering. I can't make this up. I noticed that I had them in the North side of the garden--i moved them 10 feet south in the first week of flowering and they got a little sad looking. Just weird. The plant that I didn't move did not experience that effect. Now it's documented. ๐Ÿ˜‚ The Grow I grew 5 plants to the end in fabric containers. All seeds were Tropic Orange from Equilibrium Genetics. All seeds germinated. I gave a 6th plant to a buddy who had to harvest early due to rodents starting to eat his flowers. Of the 5: 2 were placed in 30 gallon containers solo, 2 together in a 30 gallon container also LSTd, and 1 plant was grown in a 45 gallon container with pineapple, chilli, and thyme companion plants(this one had purple flowers also--1st time I see that they purp on cold nights). LST I experimented with LST a bit more. I was told by a fellow grower that what I missed was the pinch after the pin. That I should've topped the plants that were pinned down to get the yield up. At first I was like nah, but then it makes sense. Maybe I'll try it next time. I forgot to ask around when I should top also. More to learn about this technique on my end. Watering I finally got my trigger finger under control. No root rot this season. Summer still amazes me in the peak water consumed (about 3x the normal). The summer peak coincides with the flowering and a couple of weeks later the watering decreases to about 1/3 of the water. Amendments I only amended the soil about 5x this season. I think I added kelp meal like 3x and a combo of bud candy and overdrive 2x. The soil I used was also amended initially. Flowers The flowers were great. Gassy to fruity smell. Even got a hint of mango peel and orange peel. The last few plants smelled amazingly pungent. Letting them go longer also increases the potency in the aroma and the resin production. These nugs are more stickier than those from a few weeks ago. I think I got hash fingers from touching the stems and a few leaves too much earlier, this plant is resi-nous for sure. Harvest Plant 1 (short, bushy, purple and orangey leaf tips, sour diesel/Tropicana cookie lookin, had to hold the branches up, grew like 50" in a 30 gallon fabric pot with chilli companion plant)- OCT 7 chop all white trichromes with some amber here and there (~1 lb) Plant 2 (tall, but started the shortest, not bushy at all, very sativa dom hybrid looking, dark green leaves that looked maple leafy when young, very little foliage in general, but nugs were dense, turned purple, smell like a fruit smoothie of sorts, always stayed strong but required some support at the end, 62" in a 45 gallon pot with chilli,thyme, and pineapple companion plants) - Oct 7 chop all white trichromes very little amber (~1 lb)

I mean this genetics it's excellent ... if I would grow zombie kush again ... good job ripper seed ... she fought and was very strong against the plagues after a beginning outdoors ... she fought against the white fly. worms .. red spider and other insects ... and deserves your recognition ... it will not be the most beautiful plant with its leaves impeccable ... but she is a champion ... thank you ripper seed .. .

Zoap is growing up nice, she had a little discolored roots but still white might have been from being in the little starter pot for a few extra days too long. But she is doing good gave it a nice dusting of mycorrhizae. Till next time growmies โœŒ๏ธ07/17/23

10 weeks from seed to harvest. The nutrient line I was using didnโ€™t give me optimal growth, for this strain and my level of experience. Had some great growth and veg time, about 4 weeks, but when flower kicked in they got beastly. I would say I had two different phenos of this strain, and the one pheno that is unique, had slightly looser buds than the other two. This could be because of the LST/super cropping of the main cola. The other two had nice rock hard frosty buds and have similar smells and profile. The other one has more citrus, and was a bit lanky, more sativa in looks. Overall, easy enough to grow, no major surprises, and decent enough yield for 10 weeks. This is a strain that could have been better had I not had some issues with either lockout/deficiencies.

Took pics ๐Ÿ“ธ 14.02.25(VW11) increased GreenBuzzBloom to 70ml from 60ml. 19.02.25(VW11) Flowering pretty well, did what I hope is the last cleanup and defoliation, I spread her out a bit more as well. 27.02.25(FW2) By the end of this week do another defoliation, damn she is bushy. 28.02.25(FW2) drop TriPartMicro to 40ml from 50ml, increase GreenBuzzBloom to 80ml from 70ml 01.03.25(FW2) Noticed some minimal burnt tips so I added about 4l of clean water from dehumidifier and drier to my nutrient solution. 08.03.25(FW3) Dropped TriPartMicro to 20ml from 40ml, added 20ml of TriPartBloom, dropped Calmag to 40ml from 60ml. 14.03.25(FW4) Dropped TriPartMicro to 0ml from 20ml, increased TriPartBloom to 40ml from 20ml, dropped GreenBuzzBloom to 50ml from 80ml. 20.03.25(FW4) Dropped GreenBuzzBloom to 20ml from 50ml. 29.03.2025(FW6) decreasing all the nutes by 50% including Calmag. ๐Ÿ’ญโ—๐Ÿ’ญ โ—๐Ÿ’ญโ—๐Ÿ’ญโ—๐Ÿ’ญโ—๐Ÿ’ญโ—๐Ÿ’ญ ๐Ÿ๐ŸŒผ๐Ÿ๐ŸŒผ๐Ÿ๐ŸŒผ๐Ÿ๐ŸŒผ๐Ÿ๐ŸŒผ๐Ÿ๐ŸŒผ ๐ŸŒผDay to day tasks & actions๐ŸŒผ ๐Ÿ๐ŸŒผ๐Ÿ๐ŸŒผ๐Ÿ๐ŸŒผ๐Ÿ๐ŸŒผ๐Ÿ๐ŸŒผ๐Ÿ๐ŸŒผ 27.03.25(FW5) fed with (*1) 5l ๐ŸŒผ๐Ÿ๐ŸŒผ๐Ÿ๐ŸŒผ๐Ÿ๐ŸŒผ๐Ÿ๐ŸŒผ๐Ÿ๐ŸŒผ๐Ÿ๐ŸŒผ ๐Ÿถ๐Ÿ’ฆ๐Ÿถ๐Ÿ’ฆ๐Ÿถ๐Ÿ’ฆ๐Ÿถ๐Ÿ’ฆ๐Ÿถ ๐Ÿ’ฆNutrients in 30l(*1) ๐Ÿ’ฆ ๐Ÿถ๐Ÿ’ฆ๐Ÿถ๐Ÿ’ฆ๐Ÿถ๐Ÿ’ฆ๐Ÿถ๐Ÿ’ฆ๐Ÿถ๐Ÿ’ฆ๐Ÿถ๐Ÿ’ฆ๐ŸถTriPartMicro:15ml*20ml*40ml*60ml*70ml*50ml*40ml*20ml*0ml TriPartBloom: 0ml*20ml*40ml*20ml*40ml*20ml Fermented๐ŸŒฟjuice:0ml GreenBuzzBloom: 15ml*20ml*30ml*60ml*70ml*80ml*50ml*20ml*10ml Cal-Mag: 60ml*40ml*20ml buxXtrade citric acid Ph- ๐Ÿ’ฆ๐Ÿถ๐Ÿ’ฆ๐Ÿถ๐Ÿ’ฆ๐Ÿถ๐Ÿ’ฆ๐Ÿถ๐Ÿ’ฆ๐Ÿถ๐Ÿ’ฆ๐Ÿถ๐Ÿ’ฆ โš™๏ธโœ‚๏ธโš™๏ธโœ‚๏ธโš™๏ธโœ‚๏ธโš™๏ธโœ‚๏ธโš™๏ธ โœ‚๏ธTools & equipment โœ‚๏ธ โš™๏ธโœ‚๏ธโš™๏ธโœ‚๏ธโš™๏ธโœ‚๏ธโš™๏ธโœ‚๏ธโš™๏ธโœ‚๏ธโš™๏ธโœ‚๏ธโš™๏ธ โœ‚๏ธโžก๏ธ2xMarsHydroSP3000 โš™๏ธโžก๏ธMarsHydro150mmVentilatorACF โœ‚๏ธโžก๏ธTrotec (big) dehumidifier โš™๏ธโžก๏ธSmall no name dehumidifier โœ‚๏ธโžก๏ธKebab stainless skewers 3 (LST) โš™๏ธโžก๏ธwire+roast beefskewers(LST) โœ‚๏ธโžก๏ธtrimming scissors.(HST) โš™๏ธโžก๏ธWaterproof vacuum cleaner for โœ‚๏ธspills. โš™๏ธโœ‚๏ธโš™๏ธโœ‚๏ธโš™๏ธโœ‚๏ธโš™๏ธโœ‚๏ธโš™๏ธโœ‚๏ธโš™๏ธโœ‚๏ธโš™๏ธ ๐Ÿญ๐Ÿฆ๐Ÿฌ๐ŸŒˆ๐Ÿญ๐Ÿฆ๐Ÿฌ๐ŸŒˆ๐Ÿญ๐Ÿฆ๐Ÿฌ๐ŸŒˆ๐Ÿญ CandyCreamGoFastKANNABIA ๐Ÿฌ๐ŸŒˆ๐Ÿญ๐Ÿฆ๐Ÿฌ๐ŸŒˆ๐Ÿญ๐Ÿฆ๐Ÿฌ๐ŸŒˆ๐Ÿญ๐Ÿฆ๐Ÿฌ Species:70%Indica+- 30%Sativa+- Indica Cream x Auto Indica Cream Flowering period: Short Yield:High Scent:Low Seed:Feminized Effect:Relaxing THC:20 % Features:For beginners, Good for extractions, Moisture resistant,Pest resistant Flavor:Sweet Complete cycle:46-49 days Indoor Average height:180cm Yield:550 gr/m2 Outdoor Average height:180cm Yield:600 gr/plant ๐ŸŒˆ๐Ÿญ๐Ÿฆ๐Ÿฌ๐ŸŒˆ๐Ÿญ๐Ÿฆ๐Ÿฌ๐ŸŒˆ๐Ÿญ๐Ÿฆ๐Ÿฌ๐ŸŒˆ

As week 8 started, buds are gaining size. Plant is drinking lots of water. About. 3/4 a gallon a day to day 1/2. Added a second light to setup now. Hoping to help the flowering buds with extra light. Relocated my fan to help circulate air flow around more of the taper colas. Should have a around 3 week a left til harvest. Canโ€™t wait to see how this first grow turns out and what to learn from it overall at the end.

Just getting going again after some mods to my grow box. Iโ€™ve replaced the main CFL bulb with an LED and it is much brighter. I also removed the second carbon filter to create more space in the box. The new setup allows for more even space and light distribution and overall more growing space. With the additional light I thought I would try out CO2 so I added an Exhale365 bag. Starting out with 3 plants, 2 Pineapple Express and 1 Pineapple Skunk. There was some type of burn on the first seedling but that was earlier on and it has grown a lot since I first noticed it. I planted the seeds days apart so a few are behind. Growbox summary: * grow space: 19โ€H x 17โ€W x 21โ€D * 4 small, 1 medium internal fans * 3 gallon hydro reservoir * 6 inch exhaust fan + 4 inch exhaust fan in sequence * 150W Mars Hydro TS-1000 (new) * 3 X 20W LED side lights (+1 new) * Exhale CO2 bag (new) Water temps are ranging from 68 up to 70. Itโ€™s a small space, but with light covering all sides I think I can get a decent yield. Last time 3.2 ounces were harvested from it. Hoping to hit 5 ounces this time by creating fewer, but larger colas. Day 6 update: * The pinex-1 is looking a little funky. It has weird leaf growth, some minor defects in color, super short compared to the others, and the first leafs are starting to canoe a little. * pinex-2 and pskunk are looking good and growing well, but the leaves arenโ€™t very green. * decided to bump up nutrients a little by moving to week 2 on the schedule and diluting to 60%. That took the ppm up from 400(200 base) to 630(210 base). Hoping if they werenโ€™t getting enough nutrients that this will fix it. * the new light might be a little to bright for these babies. Dimmed it to about 75% power.

Day#29Update : I took off about 8-10 fan leaves although I really did not want to take anything . I pony-tailed her main top although I wanted to pony-tail each of her tops . Iโ€™m hoping this second lite defoliation establishes those lateral branches letting them become symmetrical with the main top . If this happens Iโ€™ll pony-tail each branch for a day or two then when I untie them Iโ€™ll top each branch . For now thatโ€™s the plan , make as many arms โ€œbranchesโ€ with equal growth to the central โ€œmainโ€ branch . Day#30 update : sheโ€™s been ponytailed for an entire 24hrs which is a 1st she always breaks out of the tie . This makes me happy I timed it better . Usually I ponytail her top when itโ€™s slightly to large/strong so the benefits are short lived at most about 8hrs which still definitely helped those lateral branches reach the light but I was aiming to ponytail her at a smaller growth so that it would remain restrained until I decided to remove it . Sheโ€™s almost ready for a drink . She could go for one today but I really want to wait until sheโ€™s absolutely famished and begging for it . So Iโ€™m going to wait another day or two then water her until runoff . The last time she received water was day #24. Day#31Update: well sheโ€™s still pony-tailed ! Iโ€™m shocked and amused . Iโ€™ll let her down finally tomorrow . Made it through an entire month sheโ€™s only gotten more beautiful since fixing the VPD issue. I broke and gave her water before she was absolutely begging for it . Mainly to address the low and falling humidity in my tent . I donโ€™t want to lose anymore precious time dealing with issues and setback on those autos finishing up in here . After I last watered the tent day #24 I did a massive leaf defoliation of the flowering girls which dropped the overall tent humidity massively . So I adjusted the intake/exhaust fans as well as the oscillating fan to allow the humidity to rise in the tent . That worked well enough until but as the girls drink slowly the humidity is back falling again into the 45s. I donโ€™t want it in the 40s until buds are swollen . I mixed up a gallon on water and added an ounce of trace micronutrients to it and phโ€™d it down to 6.4 loaded it into a 1gallon sprayer & sprayed my 3 autos . Having a little less than 1/4 gallon of this full strength solution I decided to see what my Cereal milk plant was made of and gave it to her . I havenโ€™t given any of these girls a full strength dose of anything other than the Gaia Green . At day 42 & Day 35 of the autos in flower I did a too dress of flower nutes & a week later all 3 ladies showed burnt tips so I very well may exacerbate the issue by giving them a full stenches feeding of micronutrients . โ€œCellieโ€ who went into this 1 gallon pot day#9 is showing what looks hunger signs with the yellowing of the lower leaves . Maybe because Iโ€™m letting her go thristy considering there should be 28 days of food in this medium at minimum really even more considering I added more than the recommended amount . So weโ€™ll see. Month 1 Veg went great excited to see what kind of bush she looks like at the end of month 2 and fingers crossed by month 3 sheโ€™ll be read to flip to flower and scrog down Day#32 Update: RELEASE FROM PONYTAIL PRISON so to speak ๐Ÿ˜ญ. She has so many tops already ! Itโ€™s going to be a pleasure and a joy to defoliate her , ponytail all her tops for a couple days , then release the ponytails & top all the main tops once to widen her up some more ! She hasnโ€™t shown signs of stress from that full strength micronutrient feeding I gave her last night so thatโ€™s wonderful . Sheโ€™s going to look absolutely crazy when I strip her bare of a lot of these leaves and ponytail those tops BUT the woman she will be once she fills back out will be worth the temporary tragedy . It will take her relatively 14 days to rebound from the defoliation Iโ€™m going to put on her if I go as heavy as Iโ€™m planning to .

This girl has been the surprise for me this run. She was more of a space filler than a chosen strain but my god has she impressed me. The structure of the plant is immense. So strong with super thick branches. Buds are very fat and very dense with a great frosting already. I'm looking forward to see how this one finishes.. I've run out of big fruits which is a flowering booster I use and have come to rely on for very dense buds.. I hope to get some more this week..๐Ÿคž๐Ÿผ Uvb runs twice a day for an hour each session. X-Bars are at 55% and are giving an average of 1005umols. Feeds are at 1.8ec still. Last week for more pk then we will be just on bloom. Thanks for passing. Grow well ๐ŸŒฟ๐Ÿ’š๐ŸŒฟ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿผ๐ŸŒฟ
