Tropicana Cookies is looking amazing! Really happy with the progress on this one.

This was another hot, hot week with a big rainstorm. Take a look at the measuring cup, it is full of rainwater. Gorilla Cookies continues to smell and is very sticky. It is a tall and lanky plant but look at the heavy buds weighing down the stems. It should be ready to take down in a couple of weeks. Half way through this grow, I had to stop using Miracle Grow and change my grow plan. I decide to use Advance Nutrients Jungle Juice for the rest of the grow. Jungle Juice’s selling point is that it is the only nutrient that I should need during the entire grow. One just need to make the solution stronger as the plant matures. The directions say to “stir vigorously” and that is true. It is very clumpy and I had to stir and shake the bottle a lot. As your plant is in veg and growing larger, directions say to up your Jungle Juice to 4 ml per liter. If my calculations are correct, I am using approx. 5 tablespoons per 5 gallon bucket. 1 gal is 3.78 liters 5 gallons=18.92 liters 4ml jungle juice per liter x 18.92 liters= 75.7 ml which is = to 5.119 tablespoons per 5 gallon bucket of water As the end of the summer is quickly approaching, I have spent some time reflecting this week on all of the contests that I have entered and not won this summer. It can be a little frustrating because of all the time I have spent taking pictures and writing commentary. But, instead of it getting me down, I have to think about all of the positive take aways and I want to share them on this platform. I have read a lot of diaries and now know why I am just an apprentice. I have a lot to learn from all of you. There are some really good growers with a lot of experience and crazy grow techniques. So much knowledge is on this platform-it’s mind boggling. To be a great grower, you must be willing to be vulnerable and put yourself out there and try different suggestions and new techniques. I have made a few friend that I enjoy chatting with. I enjoy reading comments versus just seeing likes. My best friend on grow diaries is @Natrona and my neighbor as well. She has been growing longer than I have been so I routinely learn from her. This summer I learned to mix 1 cup of Perlite into my soil. I can see where my plants need the air flow. And, I now I only defoliate fan leaves that absolutely need to be gone. I let the fan leaves stay on until they fall off. I want my buds to pull all the nutrients they can out of the fan leaves. I also bought 2 new tools that @natrona suggested. The first was a water PH tester and the second was my Max-ee Magnifier which is informative and fun to use. As always, Let’s Chat it up AND Likes and comments are appreciated

11/30 Starting the week a day early have things to do tomorrow. Fed @6.5PH 1 gal w/ 15ml Bio-Bloom 5ml Bio-Grow 5ml Fish Sh!t The new bud explosion after the Recharge encouraged us to feed heavier than we would, seems to be working. Either way this is the week. Giving her a couple more days she what she can do. 12/3 Harvest day tomorrow and her great adventure ends

Plant is growing great gave her some phos bat guano this week.

Will see I’m confident is goin to get stronger as long as I make sure the wind stays within means and they were stunned a bit so I feel like veg is a lil under develop and temps fluctuating like crazy there stabilizing now should get better #checkitoutmfs matter fact is been abt a month now yea is super behind will see what happens any suges

Not much more work to do... I did some light defoliation today to avoid any popcorn buds and I think that’s it until harvest for all my girls. I’ll just keep watering them. - The critical is the most advanced one... I’m thinking to harvest it in around 2 weeks... so I’ll be starting flushing soon. - Northern Lights & Moby D have developed many stems and they are looking very even in height throughout the plants. They are not half the height of the Critical, but still have some additional weeks to go

Bud rot spread so plant had to come Down

The plants are coming along nicely for the most part. I have been finding bud rot in big mama... not much but I'm a little bit worried. I've been cutting it out when I find it. The trichomes are cloudy with sparse amber. The wind has been a concern the past week or so. I shared a video which kind of gives an idea of what we are dealing with. We are looking at harvest two weeks out - max. Maybe sooner. FFT2 is significantly behind the other varieties... fattening up more slowly.

Ciclo molto soddisfacente. Terps fortissimi e tendenti alle californiane. Super genetica!! In House Genetics una fottuta garanzia!!! Grandi breeders.

Day 45 power is restored and we are back at it! I moved #2 under the viparspectra lights and lowered her down a bit from it.(she was either too hot or over watered. Either way this should help by dimming the light and encouraging roots to do there thang) I'm kinda embarrassed but I stunted #2 during transplant last week. She is finally starting to grow. I just over watered everybody during transplant. Day 46 nothing new to report. Theh are acclimated to the new pots, finally and are in cruise control. A personal observation, when I grow the rest of these seeds I'm not stopping or training. They're just too beautiful on their own! Day 48: Straight cruise control. I wanted to take so pics to show the pre sleep drop. They're above.😊 #1 is really growing. I expect they will be in flower shoes by week 9 and hope to flip on week 10 Day 49: tried to upload some pictures and videos today but the app wouldn't operate my camera 🤷‍♂️ oh well... I watered #1 today. She is officially in overdrive just growing fast!! (You get measurements tomorrow at the new week!) The good and bad of this week is #2. She definitely stunted during transplant. Probably from over watering during it. So to help promote root growth I topped her 4 main tops. And lowered her 3' from the Optic8+ It worked like a charm too!! All her leave are turning up praying again rather than being water logged and her new tops are bright green and growing! Bingo bango!

Are you threatened by words from an empire of money and gold? Will you trade in your country's potential for the lies you've been sold? Are you scared that the walls are too high to bee breeched by the bold? Will you stand and be counted or shut up and do what you're told? Hope over fear; don't be afraid

Other two have caught up and overtaken the one I aggressively bent. All three have shown females thank god 🙏

The seeds had problems to sprout, but after the second week the plant exploded in growth. I have limited space so I am doing multiple harvests to try and maximize all buds. This week I harvested the tops and in the next 1-2 weeks will do the rest of the plant. Updated Week 8 harvest 68 dry Week 9 harvest 85 dry Week 10 harvest 34 + 25 (popcorn) dry Total: 212

ab der Woche 3. (1.11.24) kriegen die Ladys ihren Dünger dieses mal von Advanced Nutrients das starter kit bin gespannt auf die Ergebnisse (gedüngt wird nach düngeshema)

Bonne variété mais ne pousse pas beaucoup

This week I had to refill 5 gallons water to make sure I’ll constantly give em water every day, but not heavy just when the soil looking dry. Before putting on the net trellis. I did a little LST . I hold ‘em down first before putting the net trellis on. Slide the net trellis down and then cut off the string that holding the plants down for LST. After cut the canopy shoot up into the square hole. Then from there I reorganized tucked the big fans leave under so other can get lighten . When going into flower which is next week that when I’m going to clean the bottom . Good morning Growmies and hope y’all stay green and positive . Feeling good today 🎶 Larry June. Off to work I go :)

Moin, Die 3. Blütewoche ist vorbei und die White Sweet Candy OG hat sich nochmal deutlich gestretcht, vorallem die drei verbleibenden Haupttrieb (Leider ist mir Anfang der Blütewoche beim letzten scroggen ein Haupttrieb abgebrochen) werden höchstwahrscheinlich zu ziemlich großen Buds! Mit den noch erfolgten Stretch hat die Pflanze hier ideale Höhe erreicht und ich hoffe nicht auf weiteres Höhenwachstum sonst muss ich den Filter und die Abluft etwas umhängen. Besonders in den letzten Tagen beginnt merklich die Blütenbildung zu beginnen und immer mehr Pistils schießen aus den Blütenansetzen. Trichome konnte ich bisher aber nicht erkennen das wird sich in den kommenden Tagen aber sicherlich noch ändern und ich bin wirklich gespannt wo die Reise noch hingehen wird und wann ich das erste mal einen Einblick in das hoffentlich süße und vielleicht etwas kushiges (?) Terpenprofil erblicken kann. Diese Sorte macht einen wirklich Lust zu grown! Einzig tut es mir etwas Leid, dass ich dem Strain nicht das ganze Zelt an Platz gegeben haben. Ende der Woche sind mir ein paar kleine Anzeichen eines Calciummangels an zwei einzelnen Blätter aufgefallen, weswegen beim gestrigen Ansetzen der Nährlösung erstmal auch eine kleine Menge an CaO hinzugegeben wurde. Ende der 3. Blütewoche wurde die Pflanze ordentlich gelollipopt und vorallem die zum Teil schon fast riesigen Blätter wurden entfernt und die Struktur deutlich luftiger gestaltet sodass nun auch ein Guter Airflow gewährleistet ist. Zur Struktur selber bleibt die White Sweet Candy OG Ihrer OG Struktur in Wachstum treu, mittelgroße Internodienabstände, starke Haupttriebe mit große Blätter und relativ starkes Seitentrieben. Einzig ist mir aufgefallen, dass die Triebe nicht zu stark trainiert werden sollten, da diese doch recht starr und zum Teil Hohl sind wodurch diese zum Brechen neigen, wenn diese zu stark heruntergebunden werden. Ein wirklich Problem sollte das aber nicht darstellen, wenn man darüber bescheid weiß und nicht zu rabiat an die Sache herangeht. Des Weiteren habe ich mittlerweile mein Intercanopy-Lighting eingestellt und beleuchte die Pflanzen nun mit 21 W zusätzlich und er unterschied in der Ausleuchtung der untere Triebe ist nicht zu übersehen, ich bin auf die Ergebnisse gespannt! Alles in allem ist dieser Strain wirklich robust, stellt keine großen Anforderungen, hat wirklich Bock zu Wachsen und kommt gut mit höheren EC Werten klar. Gerne mehr von genau solchen Strains! Hey, Week 3 of flowering is over, and the White Sweet Candy OG has stretched noticeably once again. The three remaining main branches in particular have put on a lot of growth (unfortunately, one of the main branches snapped during the last SCROG session at the beginning of flowering). These remaining tops will most likely develop into some pretty large buds! With the additional stretch, the plant has now reached the ideal height for this setup, and I’m hoping for little to no further vertical growth. Otherwise, I’ll have to reposition the carbon filter and exhaust system. Especially over the last few days, flower development has really started to pick up. More and more pistils are emerging from the bud sites, although I haven’t been able to spot any trichomes yet. That will surely change in the coming days, and I’m genuinely excited to see where this grow goes and when I’ll finally get my first impression of the hopefully sweet and perhaps slightly kushy (?) terpene profile. This strain is genuinely a joy to grow! The only thing I somewhat regret is not giving it the entire tent to itself. Towards the end of the week, I noticed a few minor signs of a calcium deficiency on two individual leaves. Because of that, I added a small amount of CaO when mixing yesterday’s nutrient solution. At the end of week 3 of flowering, the plant received a thorough lollipopping. In particular, some of the already massive fan leaves were removed, creating a much more open structure and ensuring proper airflow throughout the canopy. As for the plant structure itself, the White Sweet Candy OG stays true to its OG heritage: medium internodal spacing, strong main branches with large leaves, and fairly vigorous lateral branching. One thing I did notice is that the branches should not be trained too aggressively. They are quite rigid and partially hollow, which makes them prone to snapping if bent down too forcefully. However, this shouldn’t be a real issue as long as you are aware of it and handle the plant with a bit of care. Additionally, I have now set up my inter-canopy lighting and am providing an extra 21 watts of supplemental light. The improvement in light penetration to the lower branches is clearly visible, and I’m excited to see how this affects the final results. Overall, this strain has proven to be very robust. It doesn’t demand much, has a strong desire to grow, and handles higher EC levels without any issues. I’d definitely love to see more strains like this!
