Transplanted to 40l container on week 4 day 1. Container has approx 30l in it. Also added a photo of the setup for size reference. Let me explain my thinking behind the repotting strategy. Firstly I should say that I am quite an old school kind of grower, although I've never grown cannabis before I have grown hundreds of other plants. Due to my experience with other plants, I understand the value of well planned and executed transplants, they can have an absolutely transformative effect upon root systems when done properly, as far as I know it's the main reason why they are done at all. It is fair to say I have never grown any auto-flowering plant indoors before, and I have read all about how you should not transplant autos, and all the good reasons why not. Ultimately though, as I am not called UnorthadoxDude for nothing, I believe that I can make it work with an auto, and get the benefit of improved root growth pattern, without delaying or interrupting the growth. I want to have my cake and eat it, as it were. So the strategy is to avoid transplant shock, which admittedly I have already failed in the first unplanned transplant, but in my hopeful naivety I still believe I can make the second one work! I'm using coco, and I have had the larger pot prepared and have been watering and feeding them as well as the plant. If I am careful not to disturb the plant at all, and move the entire contents of the pot gently into the larger pot (which is exactly the same medium in broadly the same state), then I may be able to avoid shocking the plant and just let it crack on. We will find out in a few days! If it stops growing or slows at all then I failed, otherwise it worked! A note about my use of organic nutes with coco. I have read a lot about coco and nutes and microbes and PH and TDS and what have you, and I know that the overwhelming majority of people believe that you can't or at least shouldn't use organic nutes with coco. The thing is, I like organic gardening, I prefer to cultivate a beneficial microbiota and keep it healthy. I recycle, and reuse all my compost except where a plant is diseased and this has worked well for me for a long time. I've never grown with coco before though, I always used soil. I wanted to gain the benefits of coco (better drainage, more air to roots, lighter, less inviting to pests, etc) - but I wanted to use a method of nutrition that I was already familiar with. I think I've mentioned that I am not called UnorthadoxDude for nothing, so I am using BioBizz and coco. By adding bacterial, mycorrhizal, and trichoderma inoculants and having the unplanted coco in the tent being fed and watered I hope to have cultivated a nice microbiota which will feed my plant. That's the theory. However just in case, I have a trick up my sleeve. Now, I do not know if you are aware of this, but there is a fiery debate raging on the internet about using BioBizz organic nutes with coco for cannabis. Some people try it, most people shout it down, and I have not found much in the way of solid evidence of it being a good idea. Except one! I found a commercial grower that has used biobizz nutes, and he said that as long as you are using "Acti-Vera" you can use anything from the BioBizz organic range. Apparently the enzymes in the mix break down nutes chemically in a similar way to what the theoretically missing microbes do. So I have ordered a bottle of that, and if my microbial cultivation attempts don't work out, I at least know I have a fallback that should work. Those are my thoughts on it, let's see how it pans out. Oh I should also probably point out that I am growing some companion plants, specifically alfalfa (nitrogen fixing), basil (improved flavour), and German Chamomile (increased essential oil production). Update week 4 day 2 dropped PH to 5.8 after advice from a grow question. Look! It's carried on growing... maybe there was no transplant shock? Update week 4 day 3: Growth continues, interveinal chlorosis lessening. Plant is pushing out node five at the moment. Update week 4 day 4: Growth continues, interveinal chlorosis further lessening. Apologies for the poor quality photos for the last few days, I was lazy and didn't want to move everything out to photograph. Today I have done that and the pic is better. I am declaring the second transplant a complete success. I do not believe that plant was in any way shocked. Update week 4 say 5: I think I've finally managed to overwater. Going to skip watering today. Update week 4 day 6: Photo taken just before lights on hence wilting. Growth continues to accelerate. I believe the alfalfa has been raising the PH so I've removed it. Today I will flush through with PH lowered water and then fertigate. The colour is still too pale but the growth and overall look and feel of the plant screams to me that it's happy and about to explode. Day 27.5 flushed with 30l of PH lowered water then fertigated with 5l. Day 28: Height 12cm Width: 28cm Nodes: 6 Weekly growth data: From 5cm Height to 12cm +140% From 12cm Width to 28cm +133% From 4 primary nodes to 6 +50% Summary: Wow, wow. Wow. What else can I say. What a crazy week, amazing and unexpected given the problems. I am really excited to see what happens over the next seven days!! It looks like it has quite severe chlorosis, but otherwise seems robust and is seriously stretching. Almost unbelievable growth. Pre-flowers appeared a few days ago, so I guess this was the final week of veg. Let's see how the first week of flowering stretch goes! Update 7/2/23: My instincts about this plant on week 4 day 6 were absolutely correct, she was happy and, she was about to explode. Since my early attempts at transplanting, I practiced multiple times with Citronella (a photoperiod plant) and then I did it again with an auto (Polly) - this one went flawlessly and further demonstrates that you can transplant an auto without shocking it. Time will tell, because I can compare Polly to both Misty and Nesia both of whom were sown directly in their final pots.

after lots of screw ups and rescues, res changes , ph research and advice from respected growers , it feels things are on the way in the right direction. The girls have been through a lot and now seem over the worst . Reading and listening to the logic behind keeping the P.H at 6.2 for RDWC seedlings and young plants to help with heat stress and also to lessen the stress of cal and mag issues. It has been a great sucess here and the first night they fed the most they have since i set this up. They are looking very green and healthy where new growth has been happening. the roots are getting bigger and longer and i can see why people talk about the roots so much . lol. i did think i had got root rot due to losing some roots into the tubs but this was due to the damamge from feeding too strong. the suspected root rot was from the Golden tree and was actually working wonders on te dead roots. . onward and upward .

DAY 49 F: Hi Growmies. It seems that the girl scout cookies have thrown me a curveball by going for another pistil flush !!. I thought they were close to finish , especially #1 who looked ready to trot at the start of the week but as I watched , the pistils began popping up on the plants. With 2 weeks left this was a relief!. A quick finish is never my goal with flowering but not trying this strain before , I did think it may be the auto version finishes quicker. They are now on their dragon force finish feeds for the next week to power those converted nutes to good use. As there are now 3 Girl scouts and only 2 amnesia haze , they are all naturally fading with some beautiful colours among the leaves . The Amnesia are going strong on building the bud stacks and plenty of trichromes build up now too. They are starting to look quite potent and they smell so fruity sweet now. I am keeping the rh at around 55% so far but have plenty of airflow too. All the bud sets are really nicely compacted on these girls so far with the exception of the critical cheese but she is a sativa and only now hitting her true stride. Hopefully her long colas will be formed into long donkey appendages before harvest.!!. I will keep feeding as the Amnesia gets fed as they should finish around the same time too. The tent is filling up with varying strain smells now and when I opent the flap , a sweet , pungent weed and fruit aroma oozes out. Be safe and well

Day 65: All good guys, I started flushing Sour Stomper rest of them need more time the next ones will be Critical Orange Punch and Lemon Zkittle. Bids are developing nicely. Need more time a bit to get ready. Water intake 200 ml a day. 600W LED, 18 hours on 6 hours off humidity is low approx 35 percent. Day 67: I started flushing Critical Orange Punch as well.

dry weight of buds after trimming = 93 gram and about 5 gram of Trim so 98g Total. Actual plan was to leave the plant some more days but after seeing some Nanas developing inside the buds i decided to cut it at day 65 of flower. great smell and cant wait to smoke the final product. All in all definetly a good strain for living soil.

They took a long time to grow and mature 10 months in all. They produced amazing flowers with a genuine high. Left a lot to be desired in flavour profile however not awful to smoke. Would grow again for sure as they were a high yielding, ‘set and forget’ type of strain easy and resilient enough to grow and highly impressive to see grown outdoor.

🌱 Passion Fruitz #5 — Week 4 | The Underdog Every grow has its own story, and this week the spotlight belongs to the only remaining Passion Fruitz in Folder #5. Originally this project started with two phenotypes, Plant A and Plant B, but sometimes nature has other plans. One seedling didn’t make it through the early stages, leaving this beautiful girl to carry the Passion Fruitz banner on her own. Instead of seeing it as a setback, I decided to embrace it. Every plant deserves its chance to tell its own story. And what a beautiful story she’s already writing. ⸻ Unlike several of her sisters, this phenotype started life at a slower pace. She received exactly the same treatment as every other plant in the room: • 12/12 from seed 🌱 • Same Future of Grow LED intensity and PPFD • Same Plagron Terra feeding schedule • Same watering routine • Same environment • Same temperature and humidity • Same love and attention Yet genetics always have the final word. Some plants explode immediately… Others spend extra time building an exceptional root system before putting all their energy into vegetative growth. Looking at her structure now, I believe she’s doing exactly that. The stem is thickening beautifully, the internodal spacing remains compact, and every new set of leaves arrives larger than the previous one. She isn’t struggling. She’s preparing. ⸻ One detail immediately caught my attention this week. Her leaves are absolutely gorgeous. Wide, symmetrical, deep green, perfectly flat and beautifully formed, giving her an incredibly healthy appearance. Every new leaf unfolds with confidence, showing excellent vigor and no signs of deficiencies or nutrient stress. Sometimes the slower plants end up becoming the strongest ones once flowering begins, and watching this phenotype develop is becoming one of the most interesting parts of the project. ⸻ 🌿 Environment The room continues running exactly as planned. • Temperature: 33°C day / 25°C night • Relative Humidity: 63% • Root Zone Temperature: 21°C • Nutrient Solution: 26°C • pH: 6.1 • EC: 1.35 mS/cm • CO₂: 639 ppm Even with the warmer summer temperatures, the environment remains remarkably stable, allowing every phenotype to express itself under identical conditions. ⸻ 💜 Feeding Schedule This week she received the Plagron Terra program: • Terra Grow — 1.8 ml/L • Power Roots — 1 ml/L • Pure Zym — 1 ml/L • Sugar Royal — 1 ml/L The feeding remains intentionally gentle, encouraging healthy root expansion before increasing nutrient demand later in the cycle. At this stage, patience is far more valuable than pushing nutrients. ⸻ 🌱 Development She currently stands around 25 cm tall. While she’s smaller than some of the other Passion Fruitz phenotypes, her architecture is exactly what I like to see. Compact. Balanced. Healthy. Every node is stacking tightly, giving the impression that once stretch begins she’ll produce a dense, manageable structure that’s perfect for indoor cultivation. Growth has noticeably accelerated over the last few days, making me think she’s beginning to settle into her rhythm. Will she remain the smallest? Maybe. Will she surprise everyone later? Very possibly. That’s one of the reasons I love growing from seed. Every phenotype writes its own story. ⸻ 💚 Final Thoughts Not every champion starts in first place. Some quietly build their foundation while everyone else steals the spotlight. This Passion Fruitz may have started slower than her sisters, but she’s showing every sign of becoming an exceptionally healthy and vigorous plant. Whether she stays compact or suddenly catches up over the coming weeks doesn’t really matter. Right now she’s exactly where she needs to be. Healthy plants don’t need to win races. They just need time. ⸻ As always, thank you to Plagron for the incredible nutrition, Zamnesia for making this amazing project possible, and to everyone following this 12/12-from-seed adventure from the very beginning. Your support, comments, advice and encouragement make this journey even more rewarding. See you all next week, and let’s discover together what this little underdog has planned for us. 🌱💚

When I started the week of drying, I smelled the intense sheet cake and cherry from the flowers, it didn't surprise that he named it the je cheesecake.

A bit too much Potassium (yellowing tips on the newer leaves), reduce the amount added. Keep stretching. Crop steering (generative strategy for 3 weeks) help to reduce the stretch amount.

Buds are fattening on the Tangie'Matic. She is looking and smelling very good. She's a bit shorter than the first Tangie'Matic I grew last fall/winter. Oh well.
