Welcome growfessors to the harvest of Mandarin dreams! These 5 ladies got chopped down this week, the three pheno 1 strains have nice dense buds, very sticky! One pheno 2 is very fluffy, airy buds and the other pheno 2, is someplace in between, not rock hard, but close to it. Last time I'll be growing this strain, she was easy to grow, but not a smoke I enjoy, the indica hits harder as the buds cure and I'm not that interested in couch lock. Will update in 7-10 days with dry weight.

Buds should be dried in the dark at 21 degrees in 50% humidity

Hello colleagues! As I expected, in the middle of the week all the plants bloomed, especially pleased that almost in unison, including our medical strain. I did nothing except remove the extra large burdocks, I will do a thorough defoliation after the large "dandelions" appear. In the meantime, I continue to observe. The lamp power is still 75% Thank you for stopping by, and be healthy! 🙏 To be continued... 😶

The plants are looking really healthy, I've been defoliating here and there to get the light to penetrate to the lower leaves and branches. They have started to bush out from topping them last week. I started using Mammoth P Microbes halfway through last week. They seem to have grown a little quicker since adding them. The plants are still being fed 4 times a day at 1 minute each feeding. No signs yet of which is female and male, I am planning on pulling all the males once they show signs.

Hi Everyone ! Everything is ok. Plant are still healthy. specially the tank on the left, they drink 15L during this week and maybe less than 10L for the tank on the right Guess which one has a nice root system ? 🙏😉

It was my first grow and I really screwed it up a lot, but it resisted all my beginner mistakes, pests, stress, being without irrigation, irrigation without measuring PH, revegetation, etc. I love her, really, in love with this strain. It is a genetics with a very relaxing effect, recommended for those who cannot sleep at night. shoutout for trimix, very good prices for begginers> https://www.trimix-pro.com/

I had a fun experience growing this strain. She started out strong and finished pretty strong! The buds are covered in THC and smells sweet. The only thing I would really do better next time is trying not to nutrient burn her as much as I did towards the end. I also experimented with harvest time and came to the conclusion that the it's best to harvest a few weeks after their recommended time if you want denser buds (in my opinion). I do wish the buds were a bit more dense but I'm not a pro grower and that could be the reason for that. It's all a learning experience. It could be the strain because I'm going a Gorilla Cookies (FastBuds) and those buds are huge and don't have as many leaves. Overall I'm blessed with the outcome and I'm going to enjoy the perfectly dried buds soon :D I hope you all enjoy the little videos and music! haha I've only grown one plant before this which resulted in less than an eighth of bud so I'm beyond happy to say the least lol Let me know if you have any questions regarding growing and for some possible tips! Happy growing Growmies!

Big fat wedding cake is looking really good under the Spider Farmer G5000/UVR40 lights. I switched the lights to a 12/12 today. Time to get some flowering started. I will be changing the solution in a few days to a blooming mix. Everything is looking great.

Took a while to get there but OMG little note quick! So I started her in a 1 litre pot and stuck her on top of a 1.5L Pepsi bottle with the top chopped off! And she yielded heavily for that amount of soil a whopping! 224.63 wet weight so can’t wait to see what she holds dry because them buds were like boulders! So dense! I will be back to document her dry weight and then a couple of weeks later with the update on the smoke report! But I know it’s going to be so loud! She has deep pungent aromas like gassy and sweet! She’s going to be a powerhouse! She was a little over as today a banana developed but that just tells me “well done” timing just right! She’s a little long for my taste of auto but I do suggest anyone grow her she’s amazing! In the end!

Jan 25th - both photos are from last nite (24th) Water and Nutrients are now Max’d and will be for the next 3 feeds before tapering off towards a flush, end of week 9 - pics tonight of the skinny-assed Sativa leaves in and around the plants crown. -reined-in some of the taller branches by affixing them back onto the fabric pot. Pulling them down slightly. Jan 26, - raised the lights a couple of inches. Trying to keep top-leaf temps under the Room temp by at least a degree ~ 1.5 avg -seems that the blossoms have responded to all the food and water. Sticky Buds for the 1st-time and a Strong (beautiful) smell I cannot get my head around yet. Funky Citrus for sure. - R.H. dropped again ~ 50% - 3 tablespoons Molasses added for tonight’s feast. day 5 since last nutes *** just an observation; I’m either just at the right time in Flower, (week 6 of 11-13) or increasing the Ocean Magic content 3x has HAD a huge impact on the Bud development & Terpene population. There are Crystals galore on the sugar leaves and bud surfaces. 2ml/L on their Bottles product Label vs 8ml/L on the G.P. Nutrition Calculator, are each company recommendations on how to use the product... ? ! I’ve made the move to 8ml/L in the last 3 feeds. 30th Jan - big growth in the actual blossoms and hairs. The Left plant has flowers that have begun to wrap around the branches and join the other buds above and below. The stretch in the L plant had drastically slowed and the R plant is catching-up nicely ~ 7-10 days behind. 31st - top dressing the pot(s) tonight, ahead of their next feed. Quite a “settling” of the top surface since the first waterings. And now that they are getting some serious water (usually over a 3-4 hour period) there is room for ~ 2” soil, and another inch of Sand. Everything else has been Max’d, might as well include the playground !! - retained some of the original potting mixture, minus perlite & shrimp compost... that goes on tonight, 31st. ** ha, should be fun with all of the Stakes in the soil... focus, pic to follow Feb 1 - 16 Litre feeding tonight, to send the Ladies into the 2nd half of Flower. Planning & Maintenance is all I am thinking is left to do. Between the lines till 2nd week March ... -will try and get an image tonight showing the terpene explosion and changes happening on the plants - small increase in Molasses took TDS to 1370. No higher from here on in.

Looks good

New week, new growth.. Will hopefully start the LST and Topping in a few days. They are really starting to grow. Fan leaves looking healthy and big. Girls coming with vigorous growth now, everything dialled in and happy. Just adjusting the EC/pH as needed when the girls show me the relevant signs/deficiencies if any. D31/D35- Decided they were in a good enough place to start topping the girls, all 6 topped and just some defoliation of the bigger fan leaves that are shading the growth shoots some HST was also done. We were also due a water change, so I cleaned the whole system just to keep things extra cleanly, very important in a RDWC system. I also switched over to a sterile system instead of using beneficial bacteria so I will experiment and see how this goes. Time to let the girls ecover before the next training session. Cruise control for now.

No last just pulling some leaves it’s a nice plant it grows very firm and strong. No lst even needed

This week was also uneventful, growth has been slow and I'd say its half my fault with PH issues and over feeding which I'm correcting moving forward; and two unstable genetics. I dont have much info on growth patterns for this strain but its supposed to look a beautiful dark purple so I'm gonna breed a male and female hopefully. I'm also looking forward to the fourth phenos straits, I kind of hope its different just to have fourth completely unique phenos.

I plant 3 seeds out of a pack of 10. They all germinate correctly. They will be in a 3L pot with AllMix for the next few weeks. I use osmosis water with PH 7.0 and EC 0.4.

This week I finally removed my plant(shaman) that I didn't want to keep. Gave her away to a friend, hopefully in ''good'' care LOL. Sprayed them with CANNA RHIZOTONIC again. Did a little LST and some defoliation. Had to raise my PH a little bit because I did a small flush and found out that my run-off was like 5.6-5.7PH which is a little to low. So to keep a good PH in my soil i have them some water with ph 6.2-6.3. Not to much because then your soil will be ph 6.2-6.3. I just want to have it arround 5.9-6 for now.
