Being that this was my 1st grow, I found this strain very easy to work with. It did great with LST and the smell started being pretty strong during early flowering. I completed this grow in a small tent. Now that I have a bigger tent, I would love to grow it again and see if I can get it a little bigger.

Made it 67 days before the chop. •••03/21/2020 After a 6 day hang I've trimmed and started to jar cure. Had a total flower weight of 85 grams. Over all I'm pleased. Will update with a smoke report in about 3 weeks.

Not much change. Seeds take time. If I had not pollinated these plants I'd probably go ahead and harvest this. I included a video. Suggestions are welcome. I can't shoot without the grow light so sorry for that.

📆 Semana 6 La Variegated Sour GPP está avanzando con personalidad propia. Aunque no ha mostrado variegación en esta ocasión, se está expresando de forma muy peculiar: los cogollos tienen una estructura apretada y densa, con una forma que recuerda a una pequeña coliflor —compacta, nudosa y muy distinta al resto del jardín. El plan nutricional sigue siendo el de XpertNutrients, que está funcionando sin pegas. Esta planta está comiendo bien y sin quejarse. El ritmo de riego lo mantengo ajustado a su consumo real, evitando saturaciones y permitiendo que respire entre riegos. Los Adlite siguen haciendo un trabajo excelente, y se nota sobre todo en cómo ha desarrollado las puntas: la iluminación pareja ha ayudado a que los cogollos se formen de manera simétrica y con buena producción de resina. A nivel climático, seguimos con temperaturas en torno a los 22-25°C y una humedad del 55% que, aunque no es ideal, no está generando problemas gracias a una buena ventilación y movimiento de aire constante. Los aromas comienzan a destacar con una mezcla ácida y ligeramente especiada, fiel al perfil Sour. Los tricomas se están volviendo lechosos, sin señales de ámbar todavía, así que aún queda margen para que siga cogiendo cuerpo. No tiene la variegación que esperábamos, pero sí una expresión floral única que la convierte en una candidata interesante para seguir observando. ¡Seguimos creciendo fuerte! 💪

August 14, day 104 (37f), the Red Mandarine is getting chunkier bit by bit. The canopy is pretty dense, but I have plenty of airflow so it should be alright. It just needs to ripen a bit more in the coming weeks and gain a little density and it should be good to harvest. August 17, day 107 (day 40f), the buds are really putting on weight at the end! The smell is also increasing, along with the lovely red tones. Switched to dry koolbloom for the last week or so, then a short flush and harvest. The Mars Hydro SP-3000 is powering through the flowering stage. Its been managing heat really well, which is always a plus during the summer! 🌱👉 Check out marshydro_aliexpress on Instagram (https://instagram.com/marshydro_aliexpress?utm_medium=copy_link)

Day 29 50%/50% veg & flower nutes. 2Tbl of worm castings and a pinch of Azoz. Top dressed, watered it in at 6.3PH, leaf tucked, and gave her a Neem Oil top drench. Lights on 80% (320w). Day 30 NY Diesel Auto #3 got a pony tail so her under growth can catch up. Light watering including Fish Sh!t, to start consuming the amended nutes (both plants). Tucked a few leaves. NY Diesel Auto #2 has slight taco leaves at the top. Dialed the light back to 75%. Will reassess in 48 hours. Day 31 NYD#2 is funky!!!😤💨 Day 33 NYD#2 Had a 2" growth spurt. When the lights come back on, I'm going to LST the branches and crank the light to 90%. NYD#3 is bushing underneath main. She's almost outgrown the pony tail. Need to figure out how to handle the growth (LST, defoliation, tucking).

01/17/2026 No changes to nutrients today. However, from last week to this week, the EC and TDS have increased. I'm guessing the nutrients from the hydroton are leeching in to the bucket. Probably a good thing. That way I don't need to make any adjustments right now. No roots today. Oh well. Not too sure how she's doing. She has the right amount of nodes, but she isn't really growing. Still 2" tall. I know she's still working those roots, but still I should at least see a root. Just 1. But I see nothing. I increased the light intensity to level 2. See readings below. So far she seems to be happy with it. It's been a couple hours and I'm not seeing any signs of stress. Still very green and pretty sturdy. If I'm guessing right, I don't think this little lady is going to get very big. I can just tell. But we'll have to see now. I hope I'm wrong. This is one of my absolute favorites and my first time growing it. I'd love to see a nice plant with long colas thick with trichomes. But we'll see. Weekly Readings: Water Readings: pH: 6.3 EC: 1012 TDS: 500 Temp: 70° Lighting: DLI: 21.6 PPFD: 318 Environment: Temp: 75° RH: 62% VPD: 1.07 kPa CO2: 754 01/18/2026 We have a root! Just 1 root. Lol, but it's a root! I knew we'd see roots before the Apple Strudel I'm also running. It keeps stretching. So it wasn't focusing on the roots. This little lady, on the other hand, barely stretched. I was concerned at first, but now it's fine. She'll start to grow significantly soon enough. Probably tomorrow we'll see some impressive growth. Or well the start of it. However, her leaves are kinda crinkly. I need to figure this out. Is the light too bright?! No way. No fucking way. The DLI is like 21 mol. And was 16.7 mol. last week. I'm pretty sure this strain likes light. Imma take a peeky peek... Says nothing about lighting. But it does like nutrients and lots of them. I'll have to keep that in mind. Maybe I don't have enough in there. That could be the cause of the deformed leaves. I'm going to find out somehow. I looked it up and I have it narrowed down to lighting or Nutrients. It's really hard to tell when she just started to veg. I honestly should have left it in Germination for last week and started veg this week. Now it's all messed up. Lol. Oh well. So we'll have a 5 week veg stage. But it's still not gonna change the growth cycle. Also, the pH was high. It was at 6.6. So that is now pHed down to 5.8. EC and TDS didn't change at all. Temp was 67° after replacing the ice bottles. 01/19/2026 I think I figured out the issue with the crinkling leaves. The fans at night were blowing at level 6 which is really windy in a 3x3 with 2 fans. Now it's down to level 2 like it should be. Oops. On a better note, she's on her third her node now and looking like she's about to explode with growth. I'm also seeing teeny tiny side branches coming out. So I'm not seeing any issues with growth. So I guess everything is all good. Great color. Nice full leaves. Thin though. Although it is like the first week of veg. We'll see. Oh yah, the water was warm this morning. I definitely need to add ice bottles before I go to bed. No bad smell though, so that's good. Last run I got a brown algae bloom and it wreaked like warm piss. Nasty. So far everything looks good in that regard. I still need to figure out how to get temp in the tent to actually get stable. It can't hold anything. Like if the level goes below 8 on the heater, the temp drops to like 71° like immediately. I don't understand. Last run it was not like this. It hung out at a solid 75° with minimal assistance from the heater. I really don't get it. And the humidity is even worse. The humidity plummets hard. I get that it's winter and the temps are low and the humidity next to nothing, but like damn man. However, I just thought of something. I had my AC running the whole time last run. Just to keep the temp in check and the air quality better. That could have played a major role. Granted it's the exact temp in here that I was keeping it at with the AC. I dunno. Just a thought. Clean air and all. That's all for now. Update: She has 2 long roots now. Looking awesome! 01/20/2026 She's starting to grow now. The roots are getting super long and more are popping out. I have a good feeling about this. She looks great! And seems to be quite happy with the nutrient water. Very green growth. She's definitely healthy and happy. I totally forgot to change the ice bottles out again, so I did as soon as I got out of bed. Saying "shit! I forgot the damned ice bottles!" Lol. I didn't even take measurements as I was like half awake when I did it. Now I'm waiting a few hours while the ice bottles do the thing. Unfortunately, I won't be able to swap them out again until later this evening. I set a reminder on my phone, so I'll remember. As for measurements. I'm not expecting any changes just because there's 2 roots in the water. So I'm looking for the pH and temp. I'll check the EC and TDS, but I don't think those measurements are needed currently. That's more for next week when the growth becomes vigorous, or well should if not already. The lighting is perfect btw, she has a great reach and isn't stretching super fast. Very evenly paced. Slightly praying just like she should be. The environment on the other hand is a solid mess. The humidity is bouncing all over the place because of the fans. But also because I don't have the air filter in the ventilation system yet. I need to change out the charcoal or take it out, shake all the nasty stuff out and put it back in. The carbon isn't bad yet, just clogged. I need some canned air I think. I don't have an air compressor. Lol. But what I think I need to do is dump the charcoal, clean out the mesh from the filter and put the charcoal back in. Gotta wait for my new handy dandy compressed air thingy to come in. 01/21/2026 I finally remembered to switch out the ice bottles last night. The water was somewhat cool. Around 70° f. I forgot to take readings. But I'm pretty good at feeling the temp out. She looks great! Broad leaves though. The description said really thin leaves. We'll see how she turns out. It's really too early to tell what she's gonna do. So I definitely started the veg stage in the diary about a week too early. So now it's like day 3 of the veg stage in real life. We are on week 2 in the diary. SMH. Oh well. I think I addressed this when I started my second week as veg, but I can't remember. So here's a reminder I guess. The heat seems to have caught up. It's now at 75°, but not holding very well. The heater remains on and overheated for like an hour last night. Then it did it again this morning, but I just turned it off for 10 minutes while I swapped out the ice bottles and took a couple pics. Her tiny branches are starting to show more. I can't wait for them to shoot out so I can cut them off in 2 weeks. Lol. I also took a quick measurement. 3.5" tall. We started the week at 2" and have grew an inch and a half in 5 days. Not sure how much I like that. I'd love to see a half inch a day. Up until flowering. That'll give me a 17" plant by flower. If it grows twice that tall, I'll have a nice sized plant. That's based on a 4 week veg stage. If it turns out to be 5 weeks, well, the plant will be much bigger to start. Not much else to talk about today. Kinda just letting her do her thing. I've observed. She's healthy, happy and a beautiful green. 01/22/2026 We have foliage! Wow. Like overnight boom. Right on time. Now there will be some vigorous growth. What happened here? Oh I was busy. My bad everyone. 01/23/2026 The water was a bit warm this morning. I think I need to swap these bottles out every 4 to 5 hours. Not happening. I need a different solution. Maybe the heater hose needs to go somewhere else. pH: 6.1 EC: 1059 TDS: 540 Temp: 68.5 So I bought a hand held air compressor to clean the dust from the air filter. The carbon isn't spent yet, it was just clogged. Now it's unclogged. Lesson learned. Use pre-filter and replace pre-filter when it gets all clogged up. There's still a bit of resistance, but not bad. She looks great. Good color, but it looks like she'll be needing a new dose of nutrients when next week starts. I think tomorrow. Half dose and we'll see what happens. Worst case scenario, it's too hot and I have to swap out a gallon of plain water. No big deal. A gallon would put it down between the 1/4 dose and the 1/2 dose. We'll see though.

Into flower we go and so far she looks really damn fine! I keep her very low whit lst because my grow space doesn’t allow high plants right now 😂 But I love lst, it gives me time to sit beside my tent and just play with my girls 😂
