We still here! Flowering starts now A fairly esasy growing experience so far, plants are doing really well even with the intense heat were we live. Love you

Week two.👽

Day 15 - The start of week 3 and the girls are really taking off, from 1-2 Inches of vertical growth daily. Consuming a good amount of water, almost leaving the bucket empty. lol. Lightly defoliating to keep the bud sites exposed to light, as they get bushy very fast and recovery is only taking a day for them to bounce back. Pretty happy with how things are going right now. Slightly increased the EC by .2 but not enough to burn them.. which is the goal. Grateful for my trolmaster unit as it has made keeping tracking of my parameters much easier and effortless. Day 16- Topping up the res with RO water every two days. Otherwise I'm sure it would be empty! Pistils are showing and the bud sites are very visible. Seeing one pheno with slightly more sativa dominant traits. Luckily I took clones so I can run the best pheno next time around, although all these plants are special. Still going through the flower stretch. Excited for what is to come. Stay tuned for the results. Day 18 - As you can see, the difference is night and day over a period of 2 days they have had an explosion of growth. They were heavily defoliated on day 17 and bounced back within a day. Happy plants preying. Bud sites are forming everywhere now. Not much to report. Until the end of week 3 in a few days. Bring on week 4. Follow my Instagram and YouTube (link in bio)

Heat wave is over. Fat banana coming along nicely now, still getting fat. Purple/blue hue to the tips of some of her caylax’s. Her buds are glistening, without any camera flash. Her smell is pure bliss, can’t put an exact description on it, but tropical comes to mind. Just waiting to see those hairs recede some more and a little fade. Thanks for following along and stay tuned for the update!

The Hobbit Hole Outdoor Grow 2026 Woche 4 – Der Sommer ist angekommen… und die Natur zeigt ihre Zähne. Diese Woche fühlte sich an wie der eigentliche Beginn des Hobbit Hole. Nach den regnerischen und kühlen Tagen der vergangenen Wochen zeigte sich endlich der Sommer. Drei Tage Sonne am Stück reichten aus, um den kleinen Autos einen sichtbaren Wachstumsschub zu verpassen. Fast so, als hätten sie nur darauf gewartet, endlich loslegen zu dürfen. Besonders auffällig war die Entwicklung der Blätter. Alle vier Pflanzen bildeten inzwischen ihre ersten fünffingrigen Blätter – für mich immer einer der schönsten Momente im frühen Wachstum. Ab diesem Punkt wirken sie nicht mehr wie kleine Sämlinge, sondern wie richtige Cannabispflanzen. Natürlich blieb das Hobbit Hole auch diese Woche nicht völlig verschont. Wie gewohnt bekamen alle Pflanzen vorsorglich eine Behandlung mit Neem, um Schädlingen möglichst früh den Appetit zu verderben. Die Kupferringe verrichteten weiterhin zuverlässig ihren Dienst – zumindest dachte ich das. Dann kam der Rückschlag. Die Guava Runtz, die bis dahin sogar zu den stärksten Pflanzen gehörte, wurde komplett von einer Schnecke erwischt. Vermutlich nutzte sie genau die Stelle aus, an der ein Wühltier zuvor den Kupferschutz beschädigt hatte. Der Stängel wurde einfach durchgeknabbert und der Rest lag dann daneben😓 Genau solche Momente gehören leider zu einem echten Outdoor-Grow dazu. Ärgerlich? Absolut. Aber genau deshalb dokumentiere ich auch solche Rückschläge. Nicht jeder Grow verläuft perfekt, und die Natur schreibt ihre eigenen Regeln. Als direkte Konsequenz bekam die Cinderella sofort einen zweiten Kupferring als zusätzliche Absicherung. Lieber einmal zu vorsichtig als eine weitere Pflanze zu verlieren. Der kleine Zwischenfall hat gleichzeitig das Feld neu sortiert. Die Gelato übernimmt inzwischen die Führung und entwickelt sich aktuell am kräftigsten. Direkt dahinter folgt die Cinderella, die weiterhin ihren Ruf als schnelle und vitale Sorte bestätigt. Auch die Purple Punch hat sich nach ihrem missglückten Start erstaunlich gut erholt und holt langsam auf. Mit jeder Woche wird deutlicher, dass die eigentliche Arbeit unter der Erde längst erledigt wurde. Die Wurzeln scheinen sich inzwischen fest im Boden etabliert zu haben und das oberirdische Wachstum zieht nun sichtbar nach. Outdoor bedeutet eben nicht, jede Situation kontrollieren zu können. Man arbeitet mit dem Wetter, mit Insekten, mit Schnecken, mit Tieren und manchmal auch gegen sie. Genau das macht dieses Projekt für mich so spannend. Drei Hobbits stehen noch im Hobbit Hole. Und jetzt beginnt der eigentliche Kampf.

Couldn’t be happier, pictures and video speaks a thousand words. Absolutely top tier cannabis, people that I have shown and smoked actually thought it was from Cali packs. Top work barneys top work👍

Plants are now reaching the final ripening stage, showing extremely heavy trichome production and fully developed flower structure across the canopy. Several phenotypes are displaying darker coloration while resin coverage continues increasing day by day. Most pistils have started to mature and calyx swelling is becoming more noticeable, giving the buds a denser and more compact appearance as harvest approaches. Feeding is now being reduced gradually, with Bio Flores remaining as the base nutrient alongside Hungry Bacter, Glutton Bloom and the final applications of Ultra Booster before entering the finishing phase. The aroma has intensified significantly during this stage and overall plant health remains excellent heading into the final stretch before harvest 🔥

we begging week 5 and the flowers are getting bigger and bigger These Strain is the fastest on these test , and the dark colors are begging to take over the plant . the second one is a weel younger but also getting fast really frosty

- WEEK 8 - ----- Day 50 ----- Woo hoo. End is in sight and the plants are still PACKING the pounds on. Big Bertha is 11 inches long, 2 inches wide. The hidden massive Gertha is 8 inches in circumference in the middle in just bud alone and isn't even the largest part of this 8 inch long nug... Fed 1150ppm 13L 6.4pH 5-15+ days left. 2-4 days till I start looking into trichome finish period. Forgot to take a regular full shot and shots of tropicanna glookies. oh well. Later tonight if I remember. I stopped bud candy cause I'm using a lot more molasses and its literally a sugar in itself so why put in bud candy which is just sugars... seems redundant. ----- Day 51 ----- Easy day of watching. Some nice bud shots today. The whole basement smells of weed candy. Back right Tropicanna is pineapple gummy bear, front right is just gummy bear. Wedding Cake is like sweet weed, you get the regular smell of pot but instead of skunky its sweet but that Tropicanna is just alllll candy no weed smell at all. I did the first 60x shot today. 5% cloudy 95% clear on the Tropicanna. Long ways to go. I'll be doing the Wedding Cake later tonight, got side tracked. ----- Day 52 ----- Fed 1200ppm 6.4ph 12 Liters Tropicanna Glookies is going full blown purple. Should be covered in dark purple coloration within the week. Wedding Cake is just fat. Super fat large nugs. Easy day. Forgot to take trichome pics of Wedding Cake will do that later today probably. Well, the largest bud is 1 foot in circumference now... rofl ----- Day 53 ----- Easy day. Fed some water, they're getting thirsty again. I'm going to do a 13L feeding , then next day 5L water. So that's what I did today. I'll be dropping the Kool Bloom Powder & CaliMagic by day 56 and only feed 1/2 strength molasses only. Will pick the buds off as they finish, not gonna do 1 big chop unless it manages to turn out that way. Colors are going wild. Will check Wedding Cake & Tropicanna trichomes before lights out will update pics then. ----- Day 54 ----- 1300ppm 13L 6.4ph fed Here's some pics. Wedding Cake is nowhere near ready by the trichomes. Barely any cloudy, no amber. ----- Day 55 ----- Tropicanna really turning purple now starting to infect the leaves at top of canopy. Can't wait for what Day 63 holds for all these ladies. Not going to check trichomes till probably day 58 Easy day, last fert feed with chemical nutrients tomorrow, after that its just molasses. ----- Day 56 ----- Didnt even bother with ppm/pH. Molasses. roughly 30-50ml in 13-15 Liters. Smoked a tester of the Tropicana Glookies (Sativa) God daaaamn. Shits fire. Extremely strong. Very Cerebral and its not even at its peak yet... I've chosen Tuesday as Harvest day for both Tropicana Glookies plants (they're clones of each other) A single Wedding Cake testing nug is drying right now, I'll judge when it gets harvested based on the high, and if not sufficiently near my level i'll give it 2 days before drying another nug and trying again. I want heavy ass couch-lock. 6 days for Tropicana. Probably 8 for Wedding Cake. Will send samples off to Canvas Labs for testing like I've done in the past and will be making both edibles and bubble hash and will post those here as they happen. Once thats done I will see if I can restart veg mode in this grow, and if so I will keep this going until the plants die (and just make side diaries for each individual plant variety grow). Should be interesting. *** update *** Where'd the 1.5 Liter water bottle go? rofl

First flowering post - they arnt fully flowering yet tho I musta emit. I dunno why they all seem to be slow to sex but now there are a few pistols showing in the main growth mode so I’m v happy. The cheese plants are doing great. When I was LST’ing I must admit in order to make the canopy much more even I decided to try ‘supercropping??’ I pinched the stem enough for it to go soft and bend so I could get the highest growth node to the same height as all the others. It looked aweful after I did it but now after 24h it looks a lot better - really healthy even! I must admit I gave them a heavy dose of microbes and molasses just after bending and tying. Im sure that had a lot to do with the fast recovery. Full steam ahead to see some bloody pistols!!!!! Im working on which strains I want to grow next at the mo as well. Trying to get sweet seeds to send me some Tropicanna poison but not sure if they send test seeds to the UK. Probably not - we’ll see. Iv been wanting to grow that plant for aaaages. I’m also looking for a really decent gas strain. I been recommended NYCD. Havnt narrowed down a breeder yet tho. UPDATE - Saturday Thought I’d do a quick update just to say I added a few photos and a video from my security camera in there. It’s quite useful just to see how much they are stretching in a week. Not that I need to know it’s just cool. Also when I go away (as I do most weekends for about 2-3 days - sometimes more) I can just tune into the cam to make sure my physical security hasn’t been breached by any gangs lol. Well not any gangs just one - and they happen to be backed by the government. Lol I worry that when I’m away they will raid and leave me an arrest warrant after having stolen all my plants and meds. It’s a fairly dramatic fear but it’s not without its reasonings. I have been raided by the police number it’s times so it’s not a totally irrational fear - the difference is that I’m sober now (other than cannabis medicine of course) and so I’m not drawing attention to myself and bringing unwanted eyes on me and secondly (and maybe more important) I don’t actually sell drugs or weed or anything anymore so yeh. It’s a rational irrational fear lol I do believe the police have bigger fish to fry HOWEVER here in the UK it is still VERY illegal to grow so i have absolutely no doubt that given any chance they would happily relieve me of everything iv built up in the past 4 years (whilst being on probation I will add lol). The proof is in the pudding though. Every since I quit using heroin and benzodiazepines in favour of cannabis things have just been getting better and better and iv been able to function better and better also. I must admit I was worried for a while that cannabis took away my creativity when I used lots of it but I am learning that it was actually just the fact that my life was in a place I didn’t like and I was dealing with serious childhood trauma. When I was using heroin and benzos it allowed me to cover it in order to live my daily life (obviously, otherwise I wouldn’t have been willing to put up with the MANY negatives - there had to be something it was doing for me), however, when I took away the numbing opiates and benzos I had to start dealing with it and it was that trauma and having to deal with it which is why I wasn’t able to be creative. I’m an artist and so creativity is very important to me but for months, well years actually I just wasn’t able to paint or even play music really for that matter. I just couldn’t bring myself to do it, I think now because I was just preoccupied in my mind dealing with stuff. I won’t deny tho - that cannabis in excess DOES take away my motivation to get up off my ass and turn the TV or Netflix off though. I do have to watch out for that because If I’m not careful I can end up sitting there all day smoking when I should be out doing stuff and then I miss windows for my other crops where I can’t just turn the light source on and off whenever I feel like it - it’s quite hard to do that with the sun!! Anyway - I kind of use this space as a proper diary every now and again when I need to get something out. It’s not like anyone but me really reads these bits anyway so it doesn’t really matter!! Hell - even I don’t really read them tbh! UPDATE - I’m all jazzed up about growing again for sure. I somehow only just figured out really that you I can program different ‘scenes’ within my temp and humidity controllers. So anyway obviously the past month it’s been set to the veg/auto settings and I recently obviously had to switch it to the flower settings but I kind of forgot to lower the RH and adjust temp accordingly. So anyway that’s a long way of saying I did that lol. I’m definitely going to include another CBG seed in my new grow as I’m really interested in growing some hemp for medicinal use. Maybe as a tincture and or edibles, probably from rosin. It just seems to make sense rather than doing a nasty crude extraction using alcohol. The only trouble is I believe I sacrifice yield but then the flip side Is it would be less because there is less nasty shit. So I havnt narrowed down a specific breeder yet but iv been looking at a few. I was also looking at 1:1 CBD/CBG strains but they said they need more breeding before it brings the cbg ratios up in the majority of plants as it’s meant for people planting hundreds of seeds (from what I can gather). I received Fastbuds LSD-25, purple lemonade, chemdawg and I dunno something else but I’m kind of uninterested in growing them atm so they’ll stay in the vault. (which is growing pretty big now lol) To satisfy my purple craving I will be growing the sweet seeds Tropicanna poison as it looks banging and iv wanted to grow it since I sort of half grew the Dutch passion critical orange punch. So a long time. I will also be narrowing down two strains from the EU humboldt site. I intend to order tomorrow evening when I get paid as I’m always paranoid of them selling out. This is the only time iv really slowed down to choose what I want to grow. Also this is the first time iv chosen based on flavour first. I intend to cover sweet, sour, Chem and citrus with probably 4 THC dom strains and then the cbg variety also. I’m interested in starting to look at KNF but mainly from a vegetable plot perspective atm. I’m happy and comfortable using salt based nutrients now I’m not paying a lot for them and I’m not buying into the whole shipping a load of water philophosy - I do realise it can only get me so far tho. I do believe my allotment is a good place to start as I’m not reliant upon it. So if my practices don’t work it’s not as big of a deal to me. I rely on my cannabis crop - I can’t say the same about my veg yet.

She so bushy bud are everywhere some off them can get really light I wish I was defoilated them but it's okay I let her grow till day 90 let see the result thanks for reading and looking into this diary happy growing I add bio heaven for bud denser recommend by grower friends 💚

ER NÆSTEN SOM OM HUN ER GÅET I STÅ! MEN DET er efter hun er begyndt, at få PLAGRON power roots, sætter hun jo nok sin energi i at få rødderne bygget op, så jeg er sikker på hun STADIG HAR DET GODT 😊 💚☮️😇🤩og hun er VIRKELIG SMUK 🤩. Jeg ved godt hun ikke er det største! Men jeg kan se hun er sund i toppen 😉☮️😇💚SÅ MON IKKE HUN OGSÅ ER DET I BUNDEN 🙏🏼💚😇☮️👌😉HUN HAR IKKE NOGET DER TYDER PÅ ANDET. Jeg tænker hun kommer i en 14 liters potte i løbet af ugen. PEACE,LOVE, AND UNDERSTANDING FROM NICOGREEN 💚💚🇩🇰💚💚☮️

Lights off for 28 hrs, because of a North Easter, looks good gonna break out my 420 scope tomorrow, and check trichomes, 8-10 week strain. Hopeing she is close. 03/07/2018 Trichomes mostly clear some are cloudy, maybe 1% Amber. More flushing,perhaps another week of flushing,as haven't noticed any fade? 10-14 lights should help hastening ripeness.

Switched to 18 hours light schedule now and she seems to be loving it so far. The lemon balms are keeping the soil nice and moist.
