These 2 girls are still growing strong 💪 The smells coming from doing a stem rub are ridiculous! If you've ever smelled blue dream in flower, it smells pretty much exactly like that which makes sense since blue dream is one of the parents of Tropical Cooler. The plant on the left has buds with more hairs and the plant on the right has more of a pale yellow on the hairs compared to the left. I'm interested to see if there will be any more differences between the 2 phenos. Also, the top fan leaves on the left have some purple starting to creep in!! 😬I'm geeked to see what they become! Happy Growing everyone!!

***** Week 10 growth - February 13 to 19, 2021 - Week 2 Flower ***** Mandarin Mimosa is certainly growing beautifully!!! MM1 has been strong and a taller grower from the start. MM2 however has taken off in stretch.......she is also being grown in a 3gal pot so she will be slightly smaller than MM1. These are 1:1 girls but I am really looking forward to smoking this strain😍👍 The terps should start coming out more over the next couple of weeks, Terpinator being added now as well to assist with aromas. Tips up on these girls almost all day long, they are the happiest in the tent this week😂😂 2nd SCROG layer in now....finally😞 Lots of work to do in cleaning up the lower leaves next week. Will do larger leaf strip and lolipoping when they start focusing more on bud development. Light is at 24” only pulling 310 watt, and the meter at the tops of the girls is roughly 28,500LUX. It is feeling like it’s a little strong for them but it’s close......the curling leaves is slowly increasing on the tops. By the end of the week we are at 400watts and reading 38,500LUX, this should be roughly 980 umol/s/m2.......over 900 and less than 1,000.......should be good for going into week 3. Nutrients switched over to flower schedule and following week 2.....but so-called back a couple of items. Adding some other items beyond IPP line so backing off some of the ppm to compensate. Still only one “feeding” per week. Early flower so hitting the microbes a little harder this week and next and then slowly start backing off. I like Remo’s Natures Candy for sweetener because it has humic, sweetener and old school molasses, amongst other things to feed the microbes as they are in coco. Bud Fusion being used now for pk boost.........no more “red kool-aid”😂 Still adding Rezin from Green Planet becuase it seems to boost my trichome quantity.....Terpinator likely this week as well......increase some of the sulfer to increase aromas. Little more detail....... Feb 13/21 - Day 8 - 3.5L watering with CalMag @ 1ml, Nature’s Candy @ 1ml, Resin @ 1.5ml Feb 14/21 - Day 9 - 2nd SCROG added today.....finally. Plucked a bunch more leaves in the process - watering with microbes only today. Recharge has some molasses in it so just adding that. - 4L water for these girls with Recharge @ 1/2 tsp/gal - 320ppm and 6.0pH Feb 15/21 - Day 10 - today is big feed day....its been 7 days. - 3L each girl with all the IPP line as listed plus silica @ 1ml, Nature’s Candy @ 1ml. (Bud Fusion was 0.2gr/L) - 1325ppm and 6.0pH - Girls gave run off at 3L today so didn’t push past that. Feb 16/21 - Day 11 - some feed left from yesterday so added 6L of plain water to dilute it and watered into the girls tonight. - 3L full feed of nutrients for each girl - 800ppm and 6.1pH Feb 17/21 - Day 12 - 3L each girl with Terpinator and CalMag @ 2ml, Nature’s Candy @ 1ml, Recharge @ 1/2 tsp/gal - 775ppm and 6.1pH - increased light power to 350 watts. Now at 32,500LUX.......take it slow over the next week and keep creeping up. Leaves have a bit of a taco shape coming out and looking fairly serrated at the edges.....pushing the light intensity on the tops👍 - leaf colour on the girls is very good......tips are not burnt either. Feb 18/21 - Day 13 -3L each girl of plain water today - added beneficial bacteria and enzymes @ 1.5ml - 330ppm and 5.9pH - was looking for a little lower pH as I have not been checking runoff. - have to do a leaf strip this weekend......start of week 3. - light power increased again, 400 watts now. Feb 19/21 - Day 14 - day out day.......they have not had one in a bit. - humidity was higher today as door to grow room closed today to assist clones with more humidity. So that takes us through two weeks of flower now. Not knowing these girls enough yet, I suspect feeding will stop at the end of week 6. That leaves four more weeks. I will treat the next two weeks like mid flower for nutes, and the following two weeks as late flower. Feed supplements accordingly. These two girls are very happy and looking like we should get some nice colas from MM1!! They are rocking ETS.......looking forward to seeing the bud swelling next couple of weeks💪👍👊

Flowering time! What a week.. The two girls are getting huge! Realise when seeing this tent of two (!) plants, that you are watching autoflowers! The genetics on these are crazy. With the added training each developt 3 or even 4 fully main stems. The amount of bud sites is just crazy and I'm expecting a big yield. The only nutrientes I used are the boosters from RQS. I just reguarly add these with waters and thats it! Nothing less nothing more. You already see them getting frosty. Really excited and amazed! Anyone can sport which of the two is the Bubble Kush and which is the blue cheese? Greetings everyone!

Hey everyone, I may have stressed her out too much in the beginning:/ she’s been staying small but growing still, looks healthy but we will see what happens I guess. Will run her till she’s done but not sure what the outcome will be. Have a great week

Pics taken right before chop, currently hanging for the next 8-12 days and then a cure for a good few weeks. Pictures speak for themselves, I had high temps, supercropped the help out of them and yet are still the nicest looking bud I have ever grown since I started in 2003. Can’t wait to test how they smoke. I have two phenos but off to buy some more to do a more in depth pheno hunt.

We’re in the midst of the bulking phase now, with a few buds stacking up nicely. Unfortunately, the plant on the left has sparser bud distribution. Compared to other auto genetics, these three plants also show a broad variety in growth structure and phenological traits. Also, overall plant health isn’t entirely satisfying, with high temperatures being the Main cause. The leaves are showing several stress-related issues like mild tip burn, nitrogen deficiency, and some cal-mag problems. But hey—we’re here to grow buds, not leaves! 😄 That said, the fade is to be expected as the plants start to cannibalize themselves for nutrients. The stretch is also in its final phase, so we’re likely 3 to 4 weeks away from harvest. --- Quick rundown on everything else: Watering: 1500ml every third day Fertilizer: According to the BioBizz schedule Light intensity: ~1000 PPFD VPD: ~1.62 kPa Temperature: ~28°C Relative humidity: ~55%

06.03. F46 Day 46 of flower and everything is moving forward exactly as planned. The powdery mildew situation is significantly more under control compared to previous grows. It hasn’t disappeared completely, but the difference is huge. At this stage of flowering it’s absolutely manageable and no longer something that worries me. Humidity is staying consistently between 47–53%, which helps keep the situation stable. Aside from that, the plants are simply impressive. The buds continue to develop beautifully and the overall health of the canopy remains excellent. It’s one of those moments where you just stand in front of the tent and admire what’s growing in there. More and more it becomes clear that this genetic line is something special. Every day the plants show more character and quality. This run continues to be an absolute pleasure to watch. 🌿🔥.

Happy Easter Everyone! Time for an update During week 10 NEW LIGHT installed!! ViparSpectra XS2000. So excited! I think the plants are a little shocked from the change in light but hopefully they recover just fine. This week 3 of the plants definitely started showing some issues I have never had before. I started noticing rust spots on the upper top leaves of the plants which I believe was the consequence of the following... A.Nutrient lockout B. Soil PH too low from over fertilization C. Soil PH being too low due to the peat moss in the growing medium. I have purchased dolomite lime as an organic alternative to properly balance soil PH for my next grow. I did do a light flush with PHd water at 6.5. Plan for week 11 Going to be adding some Calcium to the soil during next watering to see if that helps new growth on the plants (Tuesday) At this point I will be just keeping an eye on more rust spots forming on the leaves. I have backed off on adding more P & PK at this time because I think I over fertilized last time. I am learning a lot still with every week of this grow. I know now how to dial in the nutrients and better amending soil first. Since my soil has peat moss I think that had a lot to do with the acidity as it breaks down. Really hoping these girls continue to finish out okay! Thinking that they will take the full 14/15 weeks at this point.

👋 Welcome to the second official week! Our "vintage" **Sour Stomper** 🏺 remains absolutely unstoppable, taking a massive leap forward this week. We have successfully executed the transplant into her final home and introduced pure frequency sintonization to boost cellular development during this crucial transition. 📸 The plant is showing an incredibly strong vegetative structure 💪, with razor-thin internodal spacing and completely healthy, stress-free growth. ## 📊 ENVIRONMENTAL PARAMETERS & LIGHTING 💡🌡️ ✨ We have dialed in every environmental factor to perfectly accommodate the newly expanded root zone and the seedling's rapid evolution. -⏰ Light Schedule:** 18 Hours On / 6 Hours Off ☀️🌙 -📏 Plant Size:** 6 cm in height 📈 (Super compact and robust) -💡 Lamp Distance:** 64 cm 📏 (Perfectly calibrated after the transplant to maintain ideal photon pressure and completely prevent stretching 🛑) -🌡️ Day Temperature:** 27.0°C – 28.0°C 🔥 (Active and steady metabolic rate) -❄️ Night Temperature:** 22.0°C 🌌 (Ideal thermal stability) -💧 Relative Humidity (RH):** 75% - 80% ☁️ (An absolute spa treatment for the foliage) 💧 FEEDING, WATERING & TRANSPLANT LOG 🏺 -🏺 Final Container:** Successfully transplanted into the definitive **11-Liter** pot . - Nutrients Added:** None (0.0 ml/L) ❌. Watered exclusively with pure water adjusted to a stable pH of 6.4 🌊. - Living Soil Life:** During the transplant process, we prepared the new 11L substrate by burying the **BioTabs** conditioning tablets and introducing a heavy microbiological inoculation of **Microtrex** (beneficial bacteria and mycorrhizae) directly into the root hole to guarantee immediate root colonization 💥. 🎵 SPECIAL TECHNIQUES: SOUND BIO-HACKING (528Hz) 🧘‍♂️🔊 This week, we formally launched our plant sound protocol: **30 minutes of daily exposure to a 528Hz Pure Tone**, played precisely at the moment the lights turn off 🤫🌙. Here is the pure science behind agricultural **Sonoculture**: - Cellular Mechanical Stimulation:** Plants lack ears, but they are loaded with **mechanoreceptors** (cellular sensors that detect acoustic vibrations). The exact vibration of 528Hz acts as a micro-cellular massage, accelerating cytoplasmic streaming and significantly improving internal nutrient mobility 📈. -🍃 Stomata Regulation:** Acoustic waves within this specific range stimulate optimal opening of the stomata (the breathing leaf pores), boosting gas exchange and transpiration efficiency right before entering the dark phase 🌬️. -🛡️ Cellular Anti-Stress Shield:** Widely recognized for its cell-repairing capabilities, this tone helps the seedling bypass *transplant shock* seamlessly, reinforcing its cellular immune system 👑. 📝 WEEKLY OBSERVATIONS & PROGRESS 🕵️‍♂️📈 -🌱 Transplant Response:** Mind-blowing! The plant didn't droop for even a single second after the pot change. Her **6 cm frame** stands firm, and the root mass is already actively exploring the fresh 11L Living Soil. -🌿 Internodal Spacing:** By locking the lamp distance at **64 cm** 📏, the canopy has stayed beautifully close to the ground. The new vegetative nodes are stacking tightly from the center, forging the perfect bushy profile we want. -? Overall Health Check:** Uniform and incredibly glossy emerald green color 💎. The leaves display flawless turgor and are actively "praying" towards the light with their tips pointed straight up—a definitive sign that she is processing her environment at 100%. 👑 **Weekly Conclusion:** The transplant was a textbook success. With the BioTabs living soil system activated, the light footprint calibrated, and the daily 528Hz sound therapy running, the blueprint for an invincible structure is fully set. Moving into next week with a certified champion! 🚀🔥✨
