Germinated in paper towels… Most popped no problems… In house genetics came with 1 of 3 seeds having a clear deformation still tried to germ 🤭 Put into root riot and placed in cups of coco for extra space to root… Lightly misting plane water… In a heated humidity propagator with a 125w cfl above on 18 hours with 4 hours off. When plants have more structure while getting moved to my veg room.

Weeks 1-5 in flower, starting 8/3

Ready

🌱 Harvest & Cure Begins Harvest is complete, and today marks the beginning of the curing process. This run taught me a lot about Fruity Durban. From the very beginning, it showed exceptional vigor and recovered incredibly well from topping and training. Its strong sativa-like growth and rapid flowering make it a very interesting cultivar. Looking back, I think I initially evaluated this cultivar from the perspective of a home grower running a single large Living Soil plant. After discussing it with Simon, I realized that Fruity Durban’s greatest strengths probably lie elsewhere. Its speed, vigor and growth habit make it particularly well suited for commercial SOG cultivation, where fast turnover and plant uniformity are major advantages. Seen from that perspective, I understand much better why this cultivar deserves its place in the Serious Seeds catalogue. The drying phase has now been completed, and the flowers have entered curing. My first impressions are already very promising: 🌸 Pink pepper 🍊 Fresh citrus 🌿 Herbal notes reminiscent of sage The effect is already clear, uplifting and energizing, making it a great daytime smoke. I’m very curious to see how the aroma and flavor will evolve over the coming weeks, as curing often reveals the true character of a cultivar. A huge thank you to Serious Seeds for giving me the opportunity to test and document this variety from seed to cure. 💚

Week5 the temperatures dropped a bit and I did what I could...❄️❄️ Earlier this week I had to flush this little one because I thought she had nitrogen toxicity. Maybe not... But From the water that ran out I realized that the soil was full of nuts and after the flush I didn't give it any more water. as I use a 12 liter vase, you can imagine how much water was retained in the root system. for that reason and because the water is good quality and has an amount of micronutrients, I didn't have to worry about giving water this week. let's see next week, wish me luck 🤞☺️🌞

Week 15, week 5 of flowering. SpliffSeeds is definitely a recommendable seed bank. I’m very happy with all the plants, they are all making dense and nice buds. See the pictures and the video, they talk by themselves. Last week at max feeding. Next week I will start to reduce the nootz solution slowly and might give the last feeding just before starting week 7 of flowering, it will depends on the flowers development and the tips of the leaves, we’ll see. Buds are getting heavier, needed to add bamboo sticks and to tie some tops. Particularly the Lemon Cream Kush. Do not defoliate a canopy at this stage, plants are laying and holding on the leaves of each other ! From now, as I mentioned, I keep an eye on the flowers development and the leaves, particularly the tips of the leaves. And will readjust nootz and watering from these indicators. That’s all for the week folks 😊 (I’m looking for a job in the Cannabis industry as Master Grower, Mineralogist, Quality Control)

There’s microscopic bugs crawling on my buds! Going to post a grow question about them. No more nutrients, she’s definitely getting close, so let’s use plain water and hope for the best in the next week or two.

Little slow out the gate but we’re getting back into the swing of things with some good growth the last few days . I’m running a coolmist humidifier to keep these babies fresh under the HPS during lights on and a heat mat under the pot in off cycle with a folliar spray to go to bed with .

I'm getting a little discoloration on the leaf edge. We got some rain the night of day 2. Then a heavy dew early day 3. Night 4 and day 5 we got heavy rain and thunderstorms. Day 6 was overcast and very humid. Day 7 was lots of rain. This girls handling the wet feet pretty good. She's growing slow but that could be contributed to the cool nights and days. Overall she's doing well and the week was good.

Semana 3 de la fase vegetativa completada. Todo evoluciona correctamente, simplemente regulando el ph del agua del riego. Los nutrientes de zamnesia parece que funcionan como indican en la web 😍

Grow Diary Update: Week 4, Day 2 🌱 Everything is going great today! The plants are really starting to take off, and the canopy is coming along nicely with the LST (Low Stress Training) and topping I’ve been doing. I did have to flush the other day because the PPMS were way too high for this stage, but that’s all sorted now—running at 438 PPMS on the way out, so they're much happier now. 😊 Looking at flipping to flower by the end of Week 5, maybe Week 6 at the latest. The plants are getting no more than 500 PPFD right now, typically hanging around the high 400s, which seems to be working well for them at this stage. In a couple of days, I’ll be increasing the light intensity and boosting up my feed to prepare them for the transition to flower. 🌸 Overall, they’re on track and looking strong. Can’t wait to see how they develop over the next couple of weeks! ✌️

Stretch has stopped and starting to stack

Hello to all my friends and usual visitors. Thank you for stopping by and all the likes and comments....you are the best! 😎 Everything goes according to plan i started adding PK 13/14 to the mix this week, the plant is in good condition and seems to recover nicely. The excellent Mars Hydro TS 1000 is kept at 33 cm from the top of my plants is is running on full power. TS 1000 gives a full spectrum of light to the plants and you can see that...the leaves are lush green and develop without any hindrance, Mars Hydro did a very good job producing this lamp. Thanks to Mars Hydro for supplying the necessary equipment for this grow. That's it for this week folks, have a wonderful week and please come beck visit in three days time. 🙏

Getting ready to take clones and flip them into flower in the next few weeks

Topped and pruned this week. Probably too late. Definitely watered a lot less. Be fore I am certain that I Was drowning them

Unos días antes de mandar a flora hiciamos las últimas podas de bajos y apicales la dejamos recuperarse unos días y hicimos el último trasplante a 10 litros , con eso ya listo empezamos con los nutrientes de preflora , hicimos unos riegos foliares 15 días antes de mandar a flora , el mismo día q mandamos a flora y lo tenemos que hacer 15 días después de mandar a flora , con esto ya estamos más que bien para las primeras semanas de floración después de la segunda semana vamos a empezar a fertilizar con guano de murciélago y unas cucharaditas de melaza , después ya con el engorde , pero para eso faltan unas semanas , ahora vamos a ir viendo como le va en sus primeras semanas de floración

Hi guys it’s been 2 weeks since the last update. She has been growing at a nice steady pace. Not too much lateral growth but she is getting wider. Have used a few garden stakes for lst & have been leaf tucking and defoliating selectively. She is also in pre flower low lights already at 24/0 and have been giving a P/K spike in her nutrition to initiate flower. She is responding well to the feeds. No topping so she will be growing in all her glory how she is meant to grow. She’s stout and bushy and hasn’t given me any problems at all. Leaves are a nice rich green so she is all good no deficiency that I’ve noticed. What a strain! This was the first Autoflower I ever grew some years back so this is sentimental to me. I’ll be back next week now that we are off to the races. Thanks to fastbuds for the genetics. Won’t let you guys down Let’s grow!!!!

No more fertilization, nice bushy plant.... She needs a bit more time minimum 2 weeks but it can be 3 also. All good just being flushed and waiting for the perfect moment to be harvested. Nice one. :)

2 weeks left!!! Flushed with water a few days ago..can’t wait to see that leaf fade! #1 trichomes are popping off..lots of milky and amber..my frostiest plant to date! #2 trichomes increasing but not nearly close to #1
