Stretch Season Approaching? 🌇 | RHC Enters Preflower Elegantly A fresh update from the balcony garden! My Red Hot Cookies photoperiod has officially entered preflower—a beautiful turning point in the season and a clear sign she’s gearing up for the stretch ahead. 🌀🌿 After some intense vegetative growth, she’s responded well to topping and training, with her canopy now standing tall and open, ready for the sun to do its magic. Her stature is becoming more impressive by the day, and the signs of preflower are clearly visible in the latest close-ups and video. 📸✨ Even nature’s allies came to inspect this week—a little ladybug made an appearance during filming and decided to hang out for a bit. 🍀🐞 Always a good omen in the garden! This Week’s Care Routine: 🔸 BioBizz Grow – 4 ml/l for steady veg support 🔸 CalMag – 0.5 ml/l to keep her strong and balanced 🔸 Dechlorinated Tap Water – always rested for 24h before use 🔸 Homebrewed Compost Tea – full of life and microbe support 🔸 Effective Microorganisms – boosting soil vitality 🔸 pH: 6.4 🔸 EC: 1800 µS She’s in a strong spot—tall, healthy, vibrant, and showing no signs of slowing down. I’m genuinely excited to see how she stretches from here and how the first buds begin to develop under the late summer sun. The season is still full of promise, and I’ll keep sharing the journey. 🌞🌱 Stay tuned—there’s still so much more to come!

Bonsais are being made😅😉 All good I have changed the soil so now they grow rapidly especially CBD Blue Shark. :) I had no choice realised that using the same soil over and over is mitake. Big one. Now it is okaz Purple Punches are in the 3rd week of flowering and Blue Shark is in veg i am not sure how long I will keep her like that. Fertilization continues with the mix above on Monday, Wednesday, Saturday. Day 39: I keep doing LST on CBD Blue Shark spreading her.

Week 1 of flower!!! im excited and nervous at the same time. I was going to Veg for another week but there were a couple factors that made me want to flip. Last week I did a final transplant into my 7gal pots, 2 days later I start to see pistils. I am a new grower and was like oh crap did I just force her into flowering and gonna herm them since im still on 18-6 light schedule??? I am in a couple discords that are growing communities so i posted some pics and confirmed they are in fact pistils. This is my first grow and not only was I excited to start flowering but also scared im going to ruin them if I dont flip so I did. From more research this is called pre flower and I could have stayed in veg from what I have found but flipped anyways and please correct me if im wrong as Im still learning. The pics you see are day 3 wk1 of flower, I flipped the lights to 12-12 on night 2-29. The girls are already starting to stretch. IM really hoping that my little sour diesel dwarf stretches to meet the Purp and northern lights canopy or else I am going to need to find something to prop her up to meet them. As you can see in the pics I added my trellis netting. My plan was to hopefully get these girls to stretch enough and start filling in the squares. My goal is to fill every square with a flower site. It might be a bit ambitious but still gonna try. This is 2 fold, 1 allow spacing to open up the inner canopy and allow light into the depths of these girls to encourage those lower sites to reach the top. 2 support for the flowers as they mature. Yea they looking alittle bushy and I know I should defoliate but my thought was to wait until the stretch is done then do my full lollipop and remove alot of those fan leaves blocking bud sites and also get better air flow in there. My plan for nutrients is to top dress with my gaia green 4-4-4. power bloom 2-8-4 and worm castings every 2-3 weeks depending on how they take to it. I just hope this is enough. So here's to week 1 of flower!!! any tips, advise or suggestions are welcome and thank you for looking!

A sad week, I found bud rot and had to take my plants out and do a big check and remove all dense underdeveloped growth. It will be a pretty big hit on the yield I guess but the most important thing is learning and that I did. The bud rot could spread due to my RH being 65/70 at nights and it used to be +80 before, + bad airflow. I got new fans in the tent and my dehumidifier was ordered already but its not in yet. On the other side, the plants are looking pretty damn good, they smell amazing and 3 of the 4 plants is getting a very dense nug structure.

Pflanzen wurde heute das letzte mal mit ca. je 5l Regenwasser gespült. Sobald die Erde fast trocken ist, wird das Licht für 48 h ausgestellt und anschließend geerntet 😊

Está semana hice un transplante d 0.5 litros a 4 litros y ajuste los amarres

Really loved this. Nothing more to say for now lol, it's been my first grow and grew her with 2 wild dwarfs and loved both, would grow them again. Really excited to try it out.

🌿 Woche 5 – Start in die Blüte. Ab dieser Woche wird’s spannend – die Mädels starten offiziell in die Blütephase. Das Licht steht jetzt auf 12/12. Die Girl Scout Cookies wurde von 44 cm auf 39 cm getoppt, damit sie ungefähr die gleiche Höhe wie die Gorilla Skittlez hat. Wir hoffen auf eine schöne und entspannte Blütephase. Updates folgen natürlich.

Starting week 3 with good growth on all three plants but plant 3 is doing the best, she has the longest branches and I've tried them downwards. I also trimmed-off the lowest leaves and branch/future bud sights. The girls look good and I look forward to another week of progress.

Sono pronto per fiorire 😈

I already imagine it with a lot of summer sun ... 100% recommended ... I will grow one of them again ....

Not much going on in week 1 I have other plants at different stages while we wait for movement here's a quick your of my tent the smaller ones are week 1

She grows nice and quick if you Treat her well! I transplanted and made a couple mistakes so she didn’t reach 100% imo but it’s still a nice turn out! Hadn’t she not gotten pollinated I think the yield would’ve been more! Oh well still not a bad turnout will compare her to my other cut of this strain I have finishing up! Check it out, thanks for reading

Today is day 71 for these ladies and they are doing just amazing! Stacking up densely with a Very sweet smell , I still get hints of vanilla ! Not to much longer to go these girls few more weeks an they should be done! Stay tuned for next week ! ✌️

Week 8 is over :) the girl is suffering, maybe it's my mistake that I made, :( I used biotabs nutrients throughout the growth, and at one point, she even received two waterings with advancednutrients macro, after which she started to deteriorate, from now on only pure water :) looking at it from the other side, the flowers themselves really don't look like they will be small, the flowers are already getting a pink color, which is very beautiful to me :) in general, the girl is maturing quite well :) good luck to everyone.

All 3 ladies coming along great hoping to start some LST this week with 2 as one looks slightly behind in growth so leave her to next week.

A big hello to all the cannabis growing gardeners...and all the other visitors that came across my grow journal. This week i need to change the reservoir again, the plants drink solution just as I add fresh water the EC stays at 2.7 and i need to add PK and Calmag so that's why. The weather outside is very cold this whole week around -18 degree Celsius at night...this made my reservoir water go under 15 degree Celsius. Since i ran the Spider Farmer UV lights i noticed some purples on my cannabis plants i think it's their doing....i run it now for two weeks the UVs ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The SE 7000 is hanged at 40 cm. over the canopy and runs at 520W.
