Week 26 – Flowering Week 4 Pineapple Upside-Down continues its flowering phase smoothly this week. No major events to report, which is exactly what we want at this stage. Flower development is clearly accelerating, with a noticeable floral explosion across the canopy. Some bud sites are already showing solid volume, and aroma production is now very present. Foliage quality remains poor and is no longer a focus. At this point, energy is clearly redirected toward flower production, and the plant confirms it visually. Lighting has been adjusted to sit in a productive range: approximately 650–750 PPFD under the canopy and 800–850 PPFD on the main apexes, putting the average comfortably between 700 and 800 PPFD. Environmental control is a priority. Day temperature sits around 27°C, with relative humidity pushed to 70–75% to maintain a VPD between 0.9 and 1.0. This balance is critical during weeks 3 to 5 of flower. A fresh nutrient solution was mixed at the start of the week. Final EC is set at 2.3, slightly higher than last week, mainly driven by an increased PK input. Base nutrients (Bloom A & B) remain unchanged at 2 ml/L. Additives include PK at 2 ml/L, CalMag at 2 ml/L, Cleanse at 1 ml/L, and Balance used to buffer the base water. pH is adjusted to 6.2 and allowed to naturally drift between 6.2 and 5.7. A light defoliation was performed, along with removal of small lower shoots to prioritize apex development. Structural work is now finished — from here on, the goal is full stability and uninterrupted flowering. See you next week!

Day 43 Flowering: Good day all. Hope we are keeping green and mean. Thr Fast Buds ladies have been showingnoff this week with lots of pistil popping and colours beginning to show through now. Six shooter is still a small lady and will nondoubt stay short and stocky. She has a high leaf to bud ratio which is a little dissapointing but her attempt to swallow the leaves should hopefully help that come harvest time. Her smell is getting stronger now and very sweet. Now she is in her own space with direct light, she has picked up a little and shows signs of using the energy boost now. Strawberry Pie is filling out nicely now with buds stacking up. She does look a little burnt leafed from a slightly high dose of feed but sorted now and I do think she needs some cal mag next feed too. She is a decent size andnher buds are really starting to look unique and sassy. Mexican Airline has been the star of these ladies so far and still is . Her buds are very attractive and have a very unique look to them. The camera doesn't pick up the reds and pink that are starting to appear alongside the orange. She smells so strong now too . I am so looking forward to trying her when she is done, until then I will just have to drool in vain. lol They had a good saturation feed today and started to hit runoff before I finished fully. Rhey all seem to burst with growth each day after a feed so fingers crossed I can feed them to the sweet spot to use it all. Happy Days here so far. Thanks Fast Buds and heather for the great genetics. Be happy Growmies..

Day 29 - Things going along nicely .... i trimmed down some of the bigger bottom leaves, i didn't have enough soil to fill the pots, and the plants are short, bushy, weird little things, that filled out the inside of the pots..... they are only 15cm tall, but the leaves are 10+ cm .... really weird little plants.... haha.... i decided to trim the fk out of one of the ones in the double pot, and practiced topping on her.... i'll cut her down maybe trimmer her of the pot, and focus on just the 2........ they seem to be still growing upwards, so i'm not in a hurry to put em into flower mode......... on the main one i noticed some neut deficiencies ... so i upped the neuts.... should be ok, i put a good heavy neut and it stopped the spots etc..... i think some bug or something got in the double pot and is livin in there, but he doesn't eat much, haha....... the main stalks are as big as my thumb and under each canopy is all the branches..... it's really strange, to go in under all the growth and see it all .... they look kinda small, but the entire under canopy of leaves is all full .... i'm moving the huge sized leaves out and pulling each branch up over them as they grow..... this is 21 THC and 19 CBD, so it's all the good stuff for medicine ... the smell is getting abit noticable and i'm hoping the exhaust fan arrives from china soon.... just got positive ventilation into a carbon fil. ... and daily air out........ i think i had the led lights too low..... so i'll raise em abit more and see if i can get em to stretch .... Day 30 -- added some video's...... daylight vids... worth watchin for a laugh ...... first grow, so idk what i'm doin, ... any help/comments appreciated Day 32 -- added some pics of the late night trim and LST,... idk looks ok.... Day 34 -- added a video...

Something tried to nibble on Plant B, however there are no signs of pests and no further damage anywhere else (I have 6 other plants in the garden too). Plant A has already begun to develop stipules on its first set of true leaves too! Had their first feed on day 14 (2ml Fish Mix + 0.1ml Mono-silicic Acid), and were fed again on day 16 (2ml Fish Mix, 2ml Bio-Grow, 2ml Bio-Bloom, 0.1ml Mono-Silicic Acid).

Filling out the trellis net. Looks like another 2-3 weeks until I flip the ladies. Using SST’s, LABS and natural inputs for this grow. I have made some mistakes in the past using Organics, but have figured out HOW to use them for an entire grow. The vegetative state, I have never had a problem with. The transition into the first 3 weeks is when I have had the most issues. After a little research and testing, I finally have a basic blue print of how to feed plants in flower for 10-12 weeks now or shorter. Mark Bowell from Perfect Gardens on YouTube and Mr Canucks Grow from Canada are my largest information inputs. Final Thank you to Mr McGooz for keeping me in the know. 10-11: yes, some of the stalks are turning purple. This is not due to phosphorus, magnesium, or any deficiency. It is due to the light being too intense for the plants. I am at the max distance and running the light at 30% ( it’s a 600 watt 🤣🤣). Soooo yeah, that purple is going to stay for a bit. Purple with other leaf discoloration or senescence IS a problem, purple stems with NO leaf issues isn’t serious issue. Cant it be fixed? We are going to find out….Photosynthesis Plus will be on hand in the next 5-6 days. This permits the plant to USE more of the photons ( yes, I have carbon in my media). This should minimize the purple and allow me to UP THE WATTS 🗣️🗣️ 10-14: spoke to my “guide” and we made the decision to go ahead and flower these ladies. We saw how much stretch there is to be had and realized we are currently filling the trellis by 75%. We are estimating the entire 4x4 area to be completely filled. I defoliated and pruned the smaller sites off the lower areas of the plant. Not quite lollipopping, just selectivity choosing sites to keep and bones that will get in the way. For transition I am using a ratio of 1:1:1 on NPK’s to ease the flip. The ppm’s will be between 750-800. Once we reach early flower, we switch the NPK’s to 1:3:2 ( flower girl by Dr Earth OR Fish bone meal and langbenite). I switch each feeding between the two for 5-6 weeks. At week 7 we switch to 0:3:3 ( seabird guano and Langbeinite) at 500 ppm’s. Week 8 the same feed. Week 9 kelpseaweed/water Only ( these are 10 week cultivars). Thank you for taking the time to read. 10-16 😍😍😍 Plants are starting to show deficiencies!!! Yes, normally one freaks out 😂😂😂 The slight deficiency is a sign that I can go ahead and start: The Flowering Cycle. When using Organics, you have to use your eyes because nothing is specific. Meaning: you have to see when the amendments are running out to A: Top Dress B. Make compost teas. We are going the compost tea route for flower. I made a video showing exactly what I use. The ratio is 5-5-5 ( yes earlier we were going to use 2-2-2, but we found out there is no calcium or magnesium in the all purpose mix by Dr Earth…another reason to learn to read your plants).

Oh well, 6 weeks have passed since the 12/12 schedule and all is going really well (I think) Skunk 47 gaining some colors and some weight, the green poison tops who were a little behind from their big brothers are catching up and the critical+ 2.0 are struggling to support the bud weight Really happy with the results so far, let’s wait for the finals 3/4 weeks to see them really gaining the real weight and colors Tell me what you think!!

day 42 images are in last week, I can not count XD. bridal is stacking a lot of weight and is constantly shifting/leaning every morning, good things. I would chop any day but I will wait it out. water, tiny bit of humic and folvic to reduce chloromine, chlorine- air stones day 45 took a few nugs off on day 42, dried for 3 days. Tried bridal and blackberry. As a heavy recreational, thc is up there! bridal felt like having a blindfold over your eyes somewhat sativa uplift but heavy weight feelings. Very good. Lasted as good as 30%'s. Dr. Thunder was also very nice, nug was smaller so mixed with blackberry to have a small j. Also feels very good indica. Both trials were chopped on week 6 day 1. Very pleased with the results. I was worried bridal was more sativa; which charasteristica I am not looking for. So I believe this is a very good heavy hitter run with 4 plants. I can chop any day, but I am waiting for pink paradise to finish seeds. day45 took top nugs from bridal party, blackberry oreo bigstuff and dr. thunder. No touching pink paradise!! day 46 can chop anytime just waiting on pink paradise seeds to finish, bridal party leaning more day 47 bridal leaning hard from weight. day 48 stacking, day 48 video

Was away again this week but the plants have been fine. I watered them when I left and 5 days later the soil was dry and they needed a water so i fed them 1 litre each yesterday. Today I’ve tried to tie some more branches down to the scrog net to allow more light to all the buds. I have ordered a new thermostat with a day and night temperature so soon will be able to do lower night temps
