Week 2: Moving the Twins Outside After a slow start, I decided to move the twins outside and plant them together in a 5-gallon pot. Space is limited, and with how slowly they’ve been growing, they’re not getting their own pots this time. I’ve had slow starters before, and they don’t usually yield much, so I’m keeping my expectations low. Since these two have been particularly slow, they’re sharing a single outdoor pot. The medium I used is a mix of 50% coco, 30% soil, and 20% perlite—this should provide good drainage and aeration. I used Great White from Plant Revolution during the transplant. The taproots on both seedlings were barely visible, which made me nervous—especially with autos, since they can be sensitive to transplanting. But it had to be done. Now, they’re settling into their new outdoor setup, and I’ll be watching closely to see how they respond. Current Setup: Medium: 50% coco, 30% soil, 20% perlite (now in a 5-gallon outdoor pot) Transplant: Used Great White when transplanting Taproots: Barely visible on both seedlings Lights: Moved outdoors Nutrients: Biobizz Fish Mix for now; Big Plant Science later if needed

7 Blütewoche: So liebe Grow Gemeinde wir sind jetzt in der 7 Blütewoche angelangt. Leider musste ich bei 2 von 4 Pflanzen einen Mangan oder Magnesium Magel feststellen, 2 kann ich eigentlich schon fast ausschließen da ich mir Informationen eingeholt habe und diese dafür sprechen dass es ein Mangan Mangel ist der nicht oft bei Cannabis Pflanzen vorkommt. Leider ist mein Ph Messgerät kaputt, und somit kann ich denn ph wert leider nicht ermitteln. Somit weiß ich nicht ob eine Nährstoff Sperre vorliegt die dafür verantwortlich ist das meine beiden Ladys kurz vor dem Ziel sowas erleiden müssen. Ansonsten geht’s denn anderen beiden Pflänzchen gut sie wachsen prächtig und Mann kann sehen wie die Buds an Volumen zunehmen. Ich hoffe das ich innerhalb 1 Woche das Problem in den Griff bekomme damit die anderen beiden auch noch an Volumen zunehmen können da Mangan für das Wachstum verantwortlich ist. Danke für euer Interesse und das ihr bis hier hin gelesen habt, ich werde mich wieder melden wenn sich was ändern sollte. P.S Ich habe kurz mit dem Gedanken gespielt die beiden Ladys mit den Mangelerscheinungen früher zu fällen aber von diesen Gedanken bin ich wieder ab. Ich habe noch 14 Steckis von allen 4 Ladys die warten in die Blüte geschickt zu werden. Ich wünsche allen fette Buds und gutes Wachstum.

Buds Incoming & Balcony Patrol Engaged 🐾🌸 We’ve officially hit Week 2 of flowering, and the signs are now impossible to miss—pistils and early flower sites are popping up all over! After running 11/13 light cycle in the tent, I’m seeing the payoff: compact structure, steady stretch, and the first sparkling hints of what’s to come. 💡🌿 This week was all about keeping her supported during this crucial transition. Here’s what she got on her plate: Foliar Silica spray for strength and resilience 🌬️ A full round of Alg·A·Mic, Bio-Grow, Bio-Bloom, Top·Max & Cal-Mag 💧 pH adjusted to 6.6 using Bio pH- 🌡️ A fresh brew of compost tea followed by Effective Microorganisms two days later for that living soil magic 🔁 And honestly? She’s thriving. Strong posture, vibrant color, no signs of stress—and just enough stretch to let those future colas shine. I really feel like she’s found her rhythm now. Bonus moment of the week: My cat discovered the balcony and decided to join me for a little garden patrol. First sniff, first paw on the tiles—it’s officially a shared project now. 😺🌿 We’re stepping into bloom with style, strength, and a bit of feline approval. Can’t wait to see those buds start stacking! Stay tuned—this Red Hot Cookies is just getting warmed up. 🍓🔥

26.4.25: The plants were watered with 3 ltrs of dechlorinated water PH'd to 6.3, containing the following nutrients:- ♡ 1/2 Tsp Sea K(elp) by Greenleaf nutrients ♡ 1/4 Tsp Ecothrive Biosys. 27.4.25: I LST'd again by adjusting the tie downs. For FastBuds Mystery seed auto #1 and RQS Northern Lights autoflower, this will probably be the last time I adjust the fabric ties, as they're now well in to flower. Keeping the canopy as even as possible. 29.4.25: FastBuds Mystery seed #1 has taken very quickly to the readjustment of the fabric ties. Within an hour, the plant had already grown back towards the light. That's always so crazy to me. I watered 3 litres 2 days ago, and I'm not going to water again until it has dried. I suspect that will be at the end of the week. The larger pots are a learning curve with trying to water adequately but not too much. I don't think that I've ever overwatered, I never water to run off. This time came uncomfortably close though Thanks for checking my diary and hanging out 💚✌️🍃😊🌱

Feeling like I started her flush too early. So I gave her some food. Not much change but she is fatter and some of her leaves are fading or turning purple. Looks like a 3 monther.

This week we just gave them water. Both phenotypes are developing well and the roots are growing fast. F01 presenting a slight advantage in relation to the height and development of the leaves.

So many leafs are coming back strong. Next Week I think the stretch will be done, so I can do the final defoliation in this grow Space for better overall light penetration.

Day 49 TG1 is starting to dense up already, super even canopy and even size buds everywhere. It’s so small compared to my other plants I have it on a shoebox to get more light. TG2 is looking better now, it has healed well from my abuse last week and is producing buds everywhere, super tight spacing, I haven’t seen any more pollen sacs. Thanks for checking out my grow!

Flowers are continuing to develop. Nice fragrance. Started to top-dress soil with Backcountry Blend Boost at recommendation of local hydro shop. Considering to stake plants soon to avoid the possibility of them getting too top heavy - would be a nice problem to have!

Comenzando la semana 4 de floración y a las nenas le dimos una bienvenida para que comiencen de lleno esta fase de engorde. Estos día bajamos a 2 riegos por día. Normalmente hacemos 3. Ya a mitad de semana volveremos a los 3 riegos. A las nenas le sacamos prácticamente toda las hojas de abanico, ahora tenemos muchísima más penetración en la planta. Quizás tengamos problemas de altura pero ya estamos buscando la manera de resolverlo.

It is a very strong plant. It's just a monster. The branches are pretty big, it's still growing.... fuck... stop please :)) Still watering just water and some stimulants. Sugars are showing up and I think it's a very good result of the blooming time. Touching the flower with my hand, the smell is amazing, as my "perfumer" says - "I want a perfume like that".

Good day. From this week my DO SI DOS starts the flowering. Look at the branches- very strong and fully covered with flowers. I defoliate the plant each 3rd day. Very healthy and strong genetic. And there are no smell yet. The plant like to drink a lot - the most dry plant everytime I open my small tent.:) I will add some PK from next week to help progress the flowering.
