Vegetation Week 5: Topping, Pistil Puzzles & the All-Mix Countdown
Update: 14.04.2025
Hey Growmies!
Week 5 brought some plot twists and big moves! Let’s unpack the story.
Current Highlights: Topping & Tiny Pistils
Topping Done Right:
Both ladies got their first topping this week! Cut the main stem carefully with disinfected scissors above Node 5.
Let’s see how they recover from that, but I guess they’re big enough to take that blow like champs.
Durban’s Pistil Surprise:
Spotted early pistils (white hairs) on the Durban – wait, already?!
Stay calm: Durban Poison is photoperiod, so this isn’t full flowering. Likely causes:
Light stress? Double-check nighttime darkness during “indoor curfew” – even small light leaks can confuse photoperiods. Longer days in late April/May will keep her in veg. No need to panic!
What do you guys think? Have you experienced pre-flower this early under sunlight?
Nutrient Needs Rising:
Lower leaves on the Blueberry show faint lighter green hues – Biobizz Light Mix is running low on juice.
Next move: Transplant into Biobizz All-Mix (richer in nutrients) after topping recovery.
______________________
Chapter Update: Garden Bed Prep – Building Their Forever Home
This week’s big project: Prepping the outdoor spots where these ladies will live their best lives! Here’s the dirt:
- Holes Dug: Two 50x50x50cm pits (perfect for root freedom!).
- Soil Mix:
- 20L Biobizz Worm Humus – worm-powered nutrient gold.
- 20L Biobizz All-Mix – for structure and organic goodness.
- Homemade Compost – loaded with worms, horn shavings (slow-release nitrogen), and lime (pH balance).
- Why It’s Lit: This mix is a 100% organic buffet – worms till the soil, microbes feed the roots, and the girls get everything they need to explode in summer!
______________________
Chapter Update 2: Pot Upgrades & Root Magic
Update: 15.04.2025 (Day 39)
Today’s mission: New shoes for the ladies!
The Trigger:
Noticed the first true leaves hinting at hunger (fading green, subtle yellow whispers) – Biobizz Light Mix had given its all. Time for a nutrient boost!
The Process:
- Pot Upgrade: Swapped their 0.27L cups for 1.5L plastic pots (hello, legroom!).
- Soil Mix:
- 2:1 All-Mix to Worm Castings – All-Mix for structure, worm goodies for microbes.
- Root Reveal: Popped the old pots off – root porn alert! Creamy-white tendrils everywhere, with fuzzy mycorrhizal hyphae hugging them like a snug sweater.
- Myco Re-Up: Dusted the root ball’s “four corners” with fresh myco powder (symbiosis 2.0!).
- Tomato Trick:
- Removed the lowest node’s leaves and tiny side branches.
- Planted them deeper to bury part of the stem – this’ll spark new roots along the buried stem (works like a charm for tomatoes, so why not cannabis?).

Same as week 15, missing a lot of pictures in the timelapse :(. I was starting to see a decent amount of amber, and unfortunately a few bananas seemed to start growing as well, so it was time to chop.

As promised last week, i made a video and explained the progress so far, and did show you the plant.
Not much to report. I continued LST, though I’ve stopped for a few days now since the branches are well spread out, and that should be enough for the time being.
The Grease Monkey is getting much thirstier, so I had to water her more than the other two plants. This correlates with her growth, which is exploding right now. She was already in preflower, but officially switched to flower on this day, so next week will be her first real week of flowering. I’m curious to see how much she’s going to stretch.
Great plant! She’s currently my favorite in the grow tent.

Hi all. It's day 60 of flowering!! Yay.. I'm so happy with this bag seed. Thank the universe that it's growing and looking so so good, since I lost 2 fem plants. After 3 years of growing Im amazed with the density. Trimming is gonna be a breeze. And I me look at her tho. With those colors I'm pumped to see it's "bag appeal". Now onto the blue cheese. It's still alive. Haha. The thing i love about marijuana is the diversity. Like OMG my plant are sooo different. The bc was really light and fluffy last week and like over night I could feel the difference in weight and density gonna be way more trim with her, and the calyxes are crazy round and a little bigger than a pea in some spots. Next time I'm surly going to tresil it since it can't hold it's weight. Anyway this is it until it's dried. ☮️ Peace

This strain came so good, next to "Breakup Cake" this is one of the most impressive Kannabia strains we've grown imo. Everyone is raving about the smell and flavor, this despite no cure. The buds are very dense and completely covered in crystal. This is definitely a standout strain, highly recommended and we will be growing it again 🐱👌
Thanks for dropping by and happy harvests!

Dudes, this girl is butt wild, she won’t stop growing. I had to defoliate her severally times over the course of 2 weeks. I am running out of growing space for her. She measures more than 2x2 (L x W). Drinks more than a gallon of water every 3-4 days. May need to invest in a RO system. However, I am very thankful that shes doing well. This is a GG#4 x Zkittlez by Cream of the crop seeds.
