Day 71 🌤️☀️🌤️🌥️ 13-23 degrees, humidity 53-78%. I start into the 11th week with an intense check of the trichomes. Tropicana started to produce amber and blue trichomes, next to purple and pink. The purple get’s darker and the appearance of the flowers change to a beautiful bouquet of fragrant colours. Day 72 ☁️🌧️☁️⛈️ 15-24 degrees, humidity 69-84%. Today my plants needed to be canopied again because of strong rainfall. I‘m glad that I have this opportunity while they continue standing outside and ripening. I take some fotos of Tropicana and her trichomes, gave her one liter of pure rainwater and let her wait for the next sunny days. And wait, and wait probably several more days. Day 73 - End of spring, beginning of summer! 🤓 🌧️☁️🌧️☁️17-25 degrees, humidity is 70-90%. Got to have an eye on the flowers, they are dry but the humidity is too high for doing nothing. Today in the evening I took a few leafs of my plants for a relax tee. A nightingale is singing next to our balcony. Love it! Day 74 🌧️🌧️☁️🌧️ 19-24 degrees, humidity is 75-90%. Tropicana is smelling wonderfully. It‘s like a bouquet of all her colors. My nose is in love! Day 75 ⛅️🌧️☁️⛈️ 13-19 degrees, humidity is 80-94 %. Waiting for sunshine. I decided after reading about, to flush the potting soil twice. Once I did today with 10 liter water and a lot of drainage wich was quit clear at he end. A second time I will do it in about a week then maybe stop watering her. Day 76 🌤️⛅️☁️🌥️ 12-24 degrees, humidity is between 60 and 80. Today Tropicana enjoys her life on our balcony. She looks fine after flushing yesterday early morning. I‘m looking once per day on three flowers at the same point if there‘s fresh growth, and there is. Found a Terpmonster this morning. Wake and bake. Psychedelic Sunday! Night 77 🌤️☀️🌤️☀️ 15-26 degrees and the humidity is 55-73%. I brought Tropicana inside to take some pictures with a flashlight. It’s not so easy to catch the real tropical colors, nearly this fotos give an idea. She is smelling very intensive. Very fruity floral fragrance stayed for hours in the flat. I really need to think where do dry our weed. Because of different reasons I won‘t do it in the flat. So I think about the basement or maybe on the balcony depending on humidity and weather forecast.

Day 56 of70 flowering: I was going to harvest during this week as she has hit the 8 weeks i read is her cycle. I then read another that had her as a 9-10 week flowering strain !!!. Looking at her now , she looks like another week would be possible for her as she doesn't quite look ready. Her buds are fairly loose and airy butshe doesnt have the size or bulk of her mother at all. better looking to a pint but nowhere near the size on her mains. She smells nice and fruity up close and had a few trichs starting to sprinkle around the leaf sets now finally. I dont think inwould grow this strain again as it has been major dissapointment both times i tried now. Lets see what she yields ?. UPDATE DAY 57. following good advice from Silky smooth , i have nipped the top few pistils of the main buds to encourage some girth hopefully. Thanks Silky

10.06 - the start of 4rd week - c'mon!! lady is growing extremely fast, very resistant and ready to eat everything u give 😄 Thanks for genetics @Doctors_Choice think is time to stop giving root juice. Next week hope she's starting her active flowering cause she already shown her first stigmas. Now the average height of plant is 27 cm but i feel it's going to burst in height soon. One more positive thing - plant shows her sex, it's a girl 😅 Thanks everyone for your 👍 appreciate it so much 😊

Harvest went great but couldn't be happier with 12 oz of off of this girl. I did take a clone that I'm going to try to reveg. I think it's awesome that she turned out to be a photo. At 50 days she was selling those signs of flour until I say River in to 1212 flower lighting and she took off

This is the last week before water flush and the harvest. Plants continue in their course. The week plant surprisingly will give some crop but the healthy one is very pretty. From today I started with the water to flush.

oh did I add I noticed she showing sex this morning as the sun rises so this morning Feb 18 6:22am I decided to up my nutrients  with the first bottle of nutrients I mixed was on a early veg level so I just add 2ml of each my fox farms advance nutrients along with some algas ( made with seaweed somewhere on the island ) which is a root stimulant and a few drops less than a teaspoon of molasses.  and gave my baby a deep feed hope I dont regret this hope I dont get nut burns .

04/09 - Started minor defoliation. Shes getting too bushy and blocking bud sites and causing moisture spots. Will remove a couple of leaves every other day for the next week. 05/09 - Full res change. Realised I mucked up the ratio. Went 35ml Micro, 25ml grow, (Shouldve been the other way around, so added an extra 10ml grow), 15ml Bloom and 15ml Silica. EC 1.4, PH 5.7. Will keep an eye on her and add some additional grow if she does alright. 06/09 - Minor defoliation. Removed about 12 leaves total so far. LST to spread the canopy a little more. PH stable at 5.8, EC at 1.4, Water level dropping. Seems to be stretching and pistils have begun to form! Responding well to the uptick in nutes from the res change. 07/09 - Leaf tucking, LST and took a leaf or two. Shes getting her stretch on for sure. PH stable at 5.8, EC stable at 1.4. Water level still dropping. 09/09 - After much deliberation, I ended up going for a fairly heavy defoliation session and am now going to leave her the hell alone until at least mid flower. I removed a large chunk of shaded leaves and bud sites and effectively ended up lollipopping her. I also removed all the old LST, and added a couple to pull leaves out of the way. The canopy remains largely unchanged, but shes much more airy now, and Im seeing far fewer damp spots where leaf perspiration has occured. Now to see if I can keep my hands off for a few weeks!

7/13 It's maine-ing out. Overcast and misting. I guess it rained last night but not much. Today is my watering day although I think they could've made it until tomorrow. These drastic temp changes makes it hard to get a STEADY routine in place. I watered everything in the 20's a gallon the 10's 1/2 gallon. The 10th planet in the front was still heavy so I didn't water it. I'll keep an eye on it. Temps are much milder. I noticed a few more septoria leaves on the 10th planet which I promptly defoliated. This pheno is flowering. I could've put this week as flowering as several plants have started. I also saw ONE leaf on my chem dog that had septoria on it. ONE f-ing leaf! I was planning on treating this early anyway so I mixed one gallon of plant doctor 3 tsp gallon/gallon which was the recommendation. I'll monitor this plant and continue treating it the next two weeks. I may do foliar too but the mixture is different. It's a systemic so I don't think that matters as much. Considering getting mulch to protect from spores on the soil. My plants look GORGEOUS. I Hate to use such a nice plant as a guennie pig but I'm not going to sit here and watch it progress. I'm lucky it's really not that bad and that it's on a reveg. There's so many leaves that I would be forced to prune anyway. I'm seeing two MAYBE three leaves a morning but I want to get this under control. Last year u let a plant with septoria go and it finished but went to extracts. I've got a pretty good feeling about this plant doctor. I've used it before with good results. Only time will tell though.🤞 EDIT: WENT OVER AT ABOUT 1PM. ITS 2 NOW AND BLUE SKIES AND SUNNY. IM SUPER GLAD I WATERED AND EVEN MORE SO THAT I APPLIED THE PLANT DOCTOR HOW I DID. THE GIRLS ALL LOOKED AMAZING. THE TENTH PLANET I TREATED WITH PLANT DOCTOR LOOKS THE BEST IVE EVER SEEN IT. I FOUND ON LEAVE DEEP ON THE INTERIOR WITJ A SMALL SPOT BUT ITS SOMETHING IM SURE I MISSED THIS MORNING. IF THIS WORKS THIS GOOD ILL BE APPLYING IT TO EVERYTHING EVEN IF ITS JUST PREVENTATIVE. 7/14 Rained last night andcwas still sprinkling when I went over. Amazingly the 10th planet that I treated with the plant doctorcmix had ZERO visible signs of septoria. I did find one leaf on Mt chem dog and two on my mk ultra with the big leaves. It could've been calcium deficiency but I really doubt it because I think I saw THAT as well. I'm going to wait a day or two and if there are still no negative results and the plant is still looking good I'm going to treat AT LEAST the two others that MAY be infected. It's a systemic and can be used proactively and supposably breaks down into p and k after stimulating immune response. I'll monitor a little longer but as it stands I think I'm going to treat the other two just in case. I also need to start feeding. I've watered a lot more than I normally do so obviously the soil won't last as long. This has been some tricky weather but I'm happy with how things are progressing. I probably should've changed this to the first week of flower as several plants are popping pistols everywhere. EDIT: WENT OVER AROUND NOON AND MIXED UP TEO GALLONS OF PLANT DOCTOR PLANNING TO TREAT THE TWO PLANTS BESIDE THE 10TH PLANET. EVERYTHING LOOKED SO PERFECT AND TOMORROW IS MY WATER DAY SO I DECIDED TO HOLD OFF AND APPLY IT WHEN IT NEEDS WATER ANYWAY. I DID NOTICE THAT PLANTS SEEM TO BE FLOWERING MORE AGGREWWIVELY THAN BEFORE. THINGS ARE GETTING INTERESTING. 7/15 It was water day. The girls looked great this morning. I watered everything at least a gallon and 1.5 for the thirstier plants. I treated my big fan leaf mk ultra and my chem dog #4 with the same Plant Doctor mix as i did tge 10th planet beside it. I havent seen ANY septoria on that plant since application and it looks better than ever. I watered them with a half gallon of phed water before doing a soul drench with the gallon of Plant Doctor @ 3tsp/gal. I'm not seeing much septoria but plants are starting flower and I want to nip it in the bud. This product can be used preventatively and I went by the guidelines for medical marijuana. It was 70 earlier this morning. I'll update as I go forward. EDIT: WENT BACK OVER AT 3 AS THE TENPS WERE PIST 90 AND HAD BEEN ALL DAY. I POSTED A SHORT VIDEO BUT EVERYTHING IS LOOKING GREAT. THE PLANT DOCTOR SEEMS TO HAVE HELPED SUBSTANTIALLY. DIDNT FIND ONE SEPTORIA LEAF. STILL IT WILL TAKE A WHILE TO WORK FULLY BUT IM GLAD I DIDNT CHICKEN OUT AND I APPLIED THE RIGHT AMOUNT. IM GOING TO KEEP AN EYE ON THINGS BUT I MIGHT JUST TREAT EVERYTHING PREVENTATIVELY WHICH IS JUST HALF A TSP A GALLON I THINK. IT DEF TRIGGERS A RESPONSE IN THE PLANT. I LOVE IT WHEN SHIT JUST WORKS OYT AND YOU END UP PLEASANTLY SURPRISED. NEXT WATERING ILL PROBABLY DO NUTES. IM DEBATING WHETBER TO TRELLUS OR JUST USE STAKES AND STRINGS ACROSS THE CAGE AS NEEDED. OH WELL. OVER 90 IS TO MUCH FOR ME TO BE OUTSIDE FOR TOO LONG. 7/16 Plant Doctor is doimg its job. I saw a couple septoria leaves on chem dog but it was interior amd I could've missed it. It takes a little bit to get going. I think I'm going to treat the rest of the garden with at least the preventative dose of 1tsp per gallon. I'll wait and see if this keeps it from popping back up. It almost got to 100 yesterday. It was 80 early this morning. I mixed up two gallons of water and gave the thistiest/lightest a half gallon. I'm hoping that will hold everything over until tomorrow which is water day. I'll have to check but I think it might be time to feed too. I def should make sure to treat tjis septoria before focusing on nutes. It says you can mix it with nutes but I'm leary of doing so. I'd rather apply them at seperate times. I'll watch the garden and of I NEED to water I will. I'm hoping what I did will be enough. EDIT: WENT OVER AROUND ONE. IT WAS 93° WITH SUPER HIGH HUMIDITY. IM GLAD I SPLIT THAT TWO GALLONS WITH THOSE FOUR PLANTS THATS FOR SURE! THEY'D PROBABLY BE DROOPED IF I DIDNT. EVERYTHING WAD PRAYING TO THE SUN GODS. WELL, EVERYTHING EXCEPT THE MK ULTRA IN THE 30 AND THE 10TH PLANET. THEY ARENT DROOPING THEY JUST LOOK NORMAL. THEY ARENT "PRAYING" LIKE THE OTHERS. THEY ARE DEFINATELY A LITTLE LIGHT AND ARE LOOKING FORWARD TO THEIR WATERING. AND THEIR FEEDING. THATS FOR SURE. I WAS SUPER HAPPY WITH WHAT I SAW GOING OVER AND THE GIRLS WILL BE ABLE TO HOLD OUT UNTIL THE MORNING. ONE IN SPECIAL KUSH (WHICH GROW AMAZING AND LARGE HERE) IS IN A 10 AND I EVEN GAVE IT A LITTLE WATER THIS MORNING BUT ITS DROOPY. I COULD STILL FEEL A LITTLE BIT OF MOUSTURE EVEN THOUGH IT WAS LIGHT. IT CAN WAIT UNTIL THE MORNING WITH THE REST. IF IT WAS DROOPING BAD I WOULDA WATERED IT. I DONT GET WHY IM HAVING PROBLEMS FINISHING PLANTS IN 10GAL SMART POTS. YEARS AGO I COULD FINISH SOMETHING IN A 5GAL BUCKET! BUT NOW ITS LIKE THE PLANTS I GROW GET FAR TO BIG TO FINISH FLOWERING ON THESE TINY BAGS. ILL MONITER. HOPFULLY IT WILL BE FINE. IF I HAVE TO I SUPPOSE I COULD CUT THE BOTTOM OFF AND PUT THEM IN THE GROUND OR MORE SUBSTRATE BUT THATS NOT SOMETHING I REALLY WANT TO DO. I CANT WAIT TO SEE YOU THESE GIRLS TURN OUT. 7/17 I'm glad I gave those few plants that extra water. It hit 100 yesterday. Plants made it through it OK. It's 80 at 9am. I watered the garden even though it's supposed to rain with a chance of thunderstorms. Everything got at least a gallon. The mk ultra reveg in the 30 got 2gals as did the thirsty special kush on the end. I've figured out which plants use more water and I try to give them a little more. I also fed today. I was hesitant to feed the plants I treated with plant doctor, but I did anyway. 1tsp grow big 2tsp big bloom .5 tsp calmag. I've noticed pistles coming together on a few plants and forming buds. Next week will definitely be labeled flower. The plants treated with plant doctor LOOK great! I've found a few septoria leaves on a couple other plants. No big deal. I was going to treat the rest of the garden preventatively but if a couple more are infected I'll just add them to the rotation. I just need to make sure I follow-up with the next few treatments. Can't say enough good about this plant doctor. 7/18 Well this fucking sucks. It's 35mph wind gusts and windy as hell. It might've rained last night but if it didn't rain much. I spent the morning "trying" to put up little strong or rope supports to help the girls. I ran a rope across the front of the three on tje back to suppirt them. That one works good. I have one going the other way the entire length which helps support some. Then I took string and ran it around each side of a row for supports. So far no observable damage abd the plants all looked awesome. They've been through a lot and are big tough hardy plants. They'll make it through tjis no problem. I'd be more worried if they had big wet flowers on them but by then I'll have the proper supports and maybe a trellis up. I feel for them this morning and I hope that wind doesn't dry out my bags! EDIT: SPIDY SENSE STARTED TINGLING AROUND ONE SO I WENT AND CHECKED. I GUESS WILL POWER ALONE WONT MAKE IT SO THE PLANTS MAKE IT TO WATERING DAY. WIND GUSTS HAVE BEEN HIGHER THAN 35MPH AND IVE SEEN REPORTS OF 25MPH SUSTAINED WIND. I DONT KNOW WHAT IT IS HERE BUT IT DRIED OUT SOME BAGS AND WAS TURNINGVPLANTS SIDEWAYS. BOTH 10TH PLANETS (THEY DRINK ALOT OF WATER) AND THE MK ULTRA REVEG WERE BADLY DROOPING. THE REST "MIGHT" HAVE MADE IT UNTIL MORNING BUT WHATS THE POINT? I ALSO HAVE TO LEAVE EARLY TOMORROW TO TAKE THE WIFE TO THE DOCTORS. WHAT I DECIDED ON WAS TO WATER THE PLANTS THAT DRINK THE MOST 2 GALS AND GIVE THE OTHERS TGATXWERENT DROOPING AND LIGHT 1.5. I GAVE THE TWO IN THE TENS A HALF GALLON EACH. THERE ATE TWO PLANTS AT THE BACK (SPECIAL KUSH AND PINK KUSH) THAT I DECIDED TO HOLD OFF AND WATER TOMORROW. I NOTICED SOME LEAVES WITH THE COMMON "IF THE BROWN SURROUNDS YOUR PLANT IS DROWNED" SO IF THE PLANTS HAVE A LITTLE WEIGHT, LOOK GOOD AND HAVE PRAYING LEAVES THEN I SHOULD PROBABLY WAIT TO WATER. THEY ARE ALL GETTING BEATEN TO SHIT BY THIS WIND STORM. IM SURPRISED THERE IS NO DAMAGE. THESE PLANTS ARE VERY STRONG. RESILIENT. I DIDNT WATER THE 50 EITHER AND IM UP IN THE AIR ABOUT WATERING IT TOMORROW. Edit 2 I went over around six once the wind died down a little. All the plants I didn't water look great. It's jist the reveges that took it the worst and has some fading leaves. I fixed it with nutes but it doesn't fix the leaves already pale. The reverse mostly are the ones seeing any stress from this storm. The large special kush in the front has buds like an inch long now. Soon it will be time to treat with plant doctor again. 7/19 Well that was a ridiculous windstorm that lasted all day. It was 54 when I was there this morning. I watered the two kush's in the back with a gallon and the 60 with a gallon. Now it's 9 and 70 but it's not supposed to be as hot. This weather is crazy. I defoliated some leaves from the 10th planet that I treated first with plant doctor. Tomorrow it's due for its second treatment. The other plants are only a couple days different and are doing good. Next watering I think I may treat everything. It's a small enclosure. That would be the smart move. I'm having some leaves yellow up on two of the plants that reveged. It sucks because I know I've overwatered a little on occasion but that's because it's 100° with strong wind running through my bags and drying them out. I give them their 10% so its not that I'm not giving enough at a time. I've also noticed some random pest damage. I'm considering using citric acid as I have it on hand and it supposably also helps with septoria. If I do it it will be a diy of Dr. Zymes. The way I look at it is these are outdoor plants. This isn't a sterile environment and shit like this is going tp happen. I saw a leaf that was almost totally eaten. Probably jpn beetle or grasshopper/cricket but they certainly got a good meal! I need to spend more time in the garden.

Week 7 update 🌱 – the journey continues! Last week, the first signs of nitrogen deficiency started to show. I tried to compensate, but I might have slightly overdone it with the chemical nutrients. To correct things, I flushed the roots the day before yesterday, but it seems to have caused even more stress 😅. This is my first time working with hydro, so it’s all a learning process. I’m hoping everything will bounce back, and to avoid further stress, I’ll now only use potassium hydroxide to balance the pH 💧🌿. Fingers crossed that this brings the system back on track! At the end of the day, it’s all about experimenting and improving. I’m staying positive and keeping an eye on the ladies – they’re tough, and I’m sure they’ll pull through 💪🍃. Follow along for updates, and let’s see how this journey ends! Thanks for the support and good vibes 🌺✨. --- Woche 7-Update 🌱 – die Reise geht weiter! Letzte Woche haben sich die ersten Anzeichen von Stickstoffmangel gezeigt. Ich habe versucht, das zu kompensieren, aber scheinbar habe ich es mit dem chemischen Dünger etwas übertrieben. Um das Ganze zu korrigieren, habe ich vorgestern die Wurzeln gründlich gespült, was allerdings für noch mehr Stress gesorgt hat 😅. Da das mein erstes Mal mit Hydro ist, lerne ich noch dazu. Ich hoffe, dass sich alles wieder fängt. Um die Pflanzen nicht weiter zu stressen, werde ich jetzt nur noch mit Kaliumhydroxid den pH-Wert anpassen 💧🌿. Drückt die Daumen, dass das System sich jetzt stabilisiert! Am Ende geht’s darum, zu experimentieren und sich zu verbessern. Ich bleibe optimistisch und behalte die Ladies genau im Auge – sie sind zäh und ich bin sicher, dass sie sich erholen 💪🍃. Folgt mir für weitere Updates, und lasst uns schauen, wie die Reise weitergeht. Danke für eure Unterstützung und die positiven Vibes 🌺✨.

It's happening! It's going to be a high of 32C/90F and so very sunny, so why not train them today? They're both 22 days from seed as of training start. #2 got FIMmed: So I was planning on topping one but ended up choosing to FIM it instead because it's lower stress. I have no idea what will happen now. I've never done either before. I chose #2 because it seems to be having an easier time producing leaves so far. I have a video of the cut. I used a pair of bonsai shears. I was really second guessing that I actually had to cut the leaves? I missed one, and it just felt weird to go back in and cut healthy growth, even though I'd already took off most of the newest leaves. I am not convinced I did this correctly because I don't understand what happens with the tiny new node I didn't cut. We will see. #1 got LST'd: With LST, I maybe should have done it sooner. The issue is the leaves are wide enough that they would be touching the soil if I really bent it like I was planning. I even undid it and tried the other direction just to see that it was even wider across. I propped a leaf on the tie and will have to adjust it again tomorrow once the crown has righted itself. I also read that it's not good to keep them in ties once they've gone into flower for autos because it stresses them, but with two plants I had LST'd, removing the ties just resulted in them eventually straightening the stems back out. So I'll not do that again for this one. I'm also a bit obsessive about measuring my plants, and that's harder with LSTing. I have a ribbon tape measure I use to measure the main stem length instead of the actual height of the plant.
