Started with the LST. The idea is to not top them, just do LST. This week I'll probably start making my SCROG net and start tucking.

WEEK 14 — WEEK 10 FLOWER Final Week Before Harvest – The Grand Finale What a journey… from the tiniest seeds to this breathtaking final chapter. Here we are, my love: the last week before harvest. The girls have spoken, and their trichomes are almost fully there — cloudy, sparkling, just a kiss away from perfection. We’re now on pure water, letting them finish their last dance with all the grace and beauty they’ve built over these 14 weeks. A Quick Recap: From Seed to Now We started with two gorgeous blueberries, strong genetics shining from day one. Veg was steady, lush, full of life. Then came the transition to flower — explosive stretch, structure forming, and soon those first tiny white hairs welcoming us into the next phase. We faced challenges. We faced heat. We faced bud rot. But we also faced everything together, and we acted quickly, smartly, and with love. And the girls rewarded us — every week fuller, denser, more fragrant, more colorful. Their personalities came alive in the phenos, and now they are standing in their final glow. This Week’s Highlights Oh my God… they are shining. Absolutely shining. Trichomes: Mostly cloudy, a few amber, perfectly on schedule — harvest any day now. Colors: Yellows, fiery reds, deep purples, fading leaves telling us nature’s clock is ticking right on time. Aroma: Classic, old-school blueberry. Sweet, berry-rich, nostalgic, absolutely unmistakable. Buds: Fat, heavy, dense, dripping in trichomes. Both phenos are glowing — one brighter green, the other with deeper shades of red and purple. Fading: Beautiful senescence on both girls — natural, graceful, textbook. We are right at the finish line. Harvest Expectations In the next few days, the scissors will sing. We’ll be harvesting full plants, hanging whole trees to dry — slow, gentle, respectful. Their size and colors will make it a little tricky, but we’re doing everything we can to give them the perfect drying process they deserve. Drying time will depend on the room conditions, but we’ll aim for a slow, even dry to lock in the terps and the beauty they built during this whole journey. What to Expect Next Harvest — very, very soon Whole plant hang Slow dry Monitoring temp & RH A cure worthy of these colors Final bud shots Wet & dry weights And of course… the big smoke report What Not to Expect No more feeding — only water No more big changes in color or structure No more pushing — they are done building, now they’re finishing No surprises — just the smooth landing toward harvest day Gratitude – From My Heart to Everyone’sTo the lovers, the haters, the curious ones, the loyal ones, the new followers, the silent readers, the loud supporters — thank you.

D-77 : Girls are going well and they are beautyful but, they are growing alot less than expected. They are 30cm behind they should be. I hope it is because of all the effort I made on the mainlining process at the beginning....

Week 6 update: What up Grow family. These testers are growing fast and strong. Where in week 6 now and the swelling and ripening of flowers are going amazing. Still feeding 500ml/16oz daily as I've found that's the sweet spot for 3gal fabric pots for these. I'd say these probably have about 2 weeks left until they'll be finished. All in all Happy Growing.

So, guys.. This is her first month blooming. 4 complete weeks has passed. Here we are for 2 more. Gave Her a super powerful egg shell fert (all powdered - Phosforium Whelthy.) 07/10/20 - We are in the middle of week 5. Thats the way they look like. For me a good number of buds and they are as dense as I thought they would be by this time. I think everything is under control despite some foxtails cuz the heat. Loving the experience.

Welcome to week 3 of veg. They’ve been growing about 1” per day lately. I’m planning to SCROG these three girls with a portable scrog screen. Supplies arrive today and I’m anxious to test this. (Note that my portable scrog screen didn’t work, so I’m using a 2x4 stretch screen). So far the self watering feeders are working well. The reservoir ph does tend to climb, so I make regular adjustments by adding RO water to the nutrient mix and using ph down. The PPM of the nutrients is climbing too, so adding RO dilutes that. As an example, it had climbed from 925 ppm to 1080 ppm overnight. I diluted it back down to 880 ppm. Saturday: installed scrog net Sunday: checked reservoir ph (6.4) and ppm (970). Added ph down. Adjusted scrog net. Discoloration in leaves appears to be worsening. Waiting for a new dehumidifier to arrive. With all of the humidity that the fiber pots put off, I’m going to need a dehumidifier in flower. Monday: ran pipes for humidifier, heater and dehumidifier through a different tent outlet. I’m ready to start dehumidifying at flower flip. Removed humidifier since I won’t need it until after the harvest (I dry in my tent ideally). Topped off reservoir water with a heavy emphasis on CalMag. Reservoirs are at a ph of 6.0 and 750ppm. Lowered ppm due to start of burnt leaf tips on one plant. Wednesday. Lowered ph in reservoir from 6.4 to 6.1 with ph down and diluted nutrients. Lowered ppm from 780 to 700. Removed growth below the SCROG net. Adjusted lighting to a DLI of 35 which proved too intense for the plants, so I backed it down to 30 DLI. Thursday: wrapped up the week by giving them a foliar spray after lights went out. Feeding 5ml/g or CalMag and 30ml/g of Seaweed Extract. Topped off reservoirs using 6ml/g of micro, 9ml/g of Bloom, Seaweed and 2ml CalMag.

This week marks a big step for Tart Pops — she's been transplanted and moved into the flower tent to get ready for the next phase of the journey. She handled the transplant like a champ, no signs of stress. Roots were strong and healthy, now sitting in a fresh pot with coco and plenty of room to stretch. She's now under the 600W LED in the flower tent, flipping to 12/12. This week’s focus: Light feed with Grow + Micro and CalMag She's looking perky and full of promise — can't wait to see the structure and scent develop as we head into bloom. One tree, full of flavour potential!

Well as always I'm super happy with what the team over at @fastbuds are doing ! To be honest they were my first auto flowering brand I tried and they sponsors that grow because they like helping growers. Easy to approach and great customer service I have not been disappointed yet and this strain here is a keeper . I wish I could bottle the scent up and keep it forced 🙂. In the beginning I wanted to grow her out in a Christmas themed container do she was put into a snowman ⛄ deal placed into a 2 gallon pot . The soil and all additives are organic , living soil a Canadian company blend . She honestly was knocked out twice from her container and her size is tall but not many buds I stressed her out a lot . If she wouldn't have fallen out and been in a 4-5 gallon container then I would be even happier . The scent alone makes up for the size I could smell it all day . Never have I smelt an auto flowering strain like this before . Over fruity like ripened strawberries and lots of gas to be had as well . Today I decided to chop her down and make room for the next generation a head . The fact is that I enjoy all strains and don't care whether it's an auto or a photoperiod this company makes some fine plants and have been in my garden for almost two years now they are my go to auto flowering company ..cheers We got a smoke report going now and it's a bomb smoke I can't believe this was what I got . So much fruity and earthy undertones with such sticky buds I'm in love .. wish I had this whole plant in my garden it's fire smoke a great indica buzz

Some are swelling , one is smelling very different to the others . I seem to have 6 phenos from small to tall and rounded buds to thin spear shaped buds. I'm not sure which is my favourite yet but one has a very unique smell almost like pineapple and exodus cheese , it could be that one but I also like the bud formation on another,, we will see

Hi Growmies, Basically its not going well for the Cbd gal this week, whilst the other seeds have really taken off shes been stuck in her shell all week. It did start cracking but then uas completely stopped over the past few days, so yesterday i removed the shell and shes stuck really tight in the shell membrane 😐 Im going to now wait for her to loosen this once shes gained some energy from the lamp. As with the others shes not gone outside due to the weather and depending on recovery may have to become an indoor project, but we'll see. Thanks for stopping by 😊✌️
