Cherry Limeade Doja – Wochenupdate 🌱 Der Herbst schreitet bei der Cherry Limeade weiter voran 🍂. Einige Blätter zeigen mittlerweile wunderschöne violette und gelbe Farbtöne und auch die Buds selbst entwickeln zunehmend eine schöne Purple-Färbung 💜. Das gibt der Pflanze in der Endblüte wirklich einen tollen Look. Gleichzeitig geht der Wasserverbrauch langsam, aber deutlich zurück. In der vergangenen Woche lag er nur noch bei etwa 1,4 Litern pro Tag 💧. Leider ist es mir nicht gelungen, die Temperaturen in der Endblüte noch deutlich zu senken. Bei eingeschalteter LED lagen wir im Durchschnitt bei etwa 27 °C 🌡️. Aber bei einem Spätsommer-Grow im Dachgeschoss lässt sich das ohne Klimatisierung eben nicht immer vermeiden. Gerade in Kombination mit dem Entfeuchter ist es schwierig, die Temperatur noch weiter herunterzubekommen. Damit muss ich bei einem solchen Setup einfach leben. Am Freitag habe ich außerdem noch einmal 3 Liter Almicanna Flower Komposttee gegossen 🌸. Dieses Mal habe ich beim Brauen erstmals einen Aquarium-Heizstab verwendet und den Tee bei konstanten 21 °C gebraut 🌡️🫧. Was die Pflanze und vor allem das Aroma betrifft, bin ich momentan etwas zwiegespalten 🤔. An manchen Tagen bin ich wirklich begeistert von ihr, an anderen bin ich doch etwas enttäuscht über den bisher eher unspektakulären Geruch. Sie riecht definitiv angenehm und hat eine schöne Zitrusnote, aber es ist kein Vergleich zu der unglaublichen Süße meiner Blueberry Pancakes oder dem extrem intensiven Aroma der linken Mentha de Croco 🌿. Vielleicht ist es einfach eine Frage der Erwartung. Bei einer Cherry Limeade hatte ich mir ehrlich gesagt beim Öffnen des Zeltes eine richtige Kirschexplosion erhofft 🍒💥. Genau diese intensive Kirschnote ist bisher leider ausgeblieben. Für ein endgültiges Fazit ist es aber definitiv noch zu früh – vielleicht überrascht sie mich in den letzten Tagen und vor allem nach der Trocknung und Reifung noch. Die Buds selbst sind dafür wirklich beeindruckend 🌸. Sie sind extrem dicht gewachsen, relativ groß, sehr harzig und mittlerweile teilweise wunderschön purple 💜. Ich bin deshalb trotz der bisherigen Enttäuschung beim Aroma sehr gespannt darauf, wie das Endergebnis aussehen und sich nach dem Curing entwickeln wird. Ab heute reduziere ich die Lichtintensität auf 800 PPFD bzw. etwa 35 DLI 💡. Ich werde die Pflanze anschließend noch ungefähr 1,5 bis 2 Wochen ausreifen lassen. Unter dem Mikroskop konnte ich bisher noch keine bernsteinfarbenen Trichome entdecken 🔬. Mein Eindruck liegt momentan ungefähr bei 50:50 zwischen klaren und milchigen Trichomen. Es ist also definitiv noch etwas Zeit. Jetzt geht es eigentlich nur noch darum, die letzten Wochen möglichst ruhig zu Ende zu bringen und abzuwarten, was die Cherry Limeade am Ende tatsächlich abliefert 😎🌱. Ich bin auf jeden Fall sehr gespannt auf das Endergebnis. 📊 Aktuelle Parameter: 💡 Licht: 900 PPFD / DLI 39 → 800 PPFD / DLI 35 🌡️ Temperatur: ca. 27 °C bei Licht an 💧 Luftfeuchtigkeit: 57 % 📈 VPD: 1,5 kPa 🌿 CO₂: Ø 740 ppm 💦 Wasserverbrauch: ca. 1,4 l/Tag Cherry Limeade – Weekly Update 🌱 Autumn is progressing on the Cherry Limeade 🍂. Some of the leaves are now showing beautiful purple and yellow colors, and the buds themselves are also developing an increasingly beautiful purple coloration 💜. It gives the plant a really nice late-flower appearance. At the same time, water consumption is slowly but steadily decreasing. Last week, the plant was using only around 1.4 liters per day 💧. Unfortunately, I wasn’t able to bring the temperatures down as much as I would have liked during late flower. With the LED on, temperatures averaged around 27 °C 🌡️. But with a late-summer grow in an attic, this simply isn’t always avoidable without air conditioning. Especially when running the dehumidifier, getting the temperature down any further is difficult. That’s just something I have to accept with this setup. On Friday, I also gave her another 3 liters of Almicanna Flower Compost Tea 🌸. This time I used an aquarium heater while brewing and kept the temperature at around 21 °C 🌡️🫧. When it comes to the plant itself, and especially the aroma, I’m currently a little torn 🤔. Some days I’m really impressed with her, while on other days I’m somewhat disappointed by how unspectacular the aroma still is. She definitely smells pleasant and has a nice citrus character, but it’s nowhere near the incredible sweetness of my Blueberry Pancakes or the extremely intense aroma of the left Mentha de Croco 🌿. Maybe it’s simply a matter of expectations. With a Cherry Limeade, I honestly hoped for a massive cherry explosion every time I opened the tent 🍒💥. Unfortunately, that intense cherry note has not appeared so far. It’s definitely still too early for a final verdict, though – maybe she’ll surprise me during the final days, and especially after drying and curing. The buds themselves are genuinely impressive 🌸. They have grown extremely dense, are relatively large, very resinous, and are now showing some beautiful purple coloration 💜. So despite being somewhat disappointed by the aroma so far, I’m still very curious to see what the final product will look and smell like after curing. Starting today, I’m reducing the light intensity to 800 PPFD, which gives me around 35 DLI 💡. I’ll let the plant ripen for another roughly 1.5–2 weeks. Under the microscope, I haven’t seen any amber trichomes yet 🔬. My current estimate would be roughly 50:50 between clear and cloudy trichomes, so there is definitely still some time to go. At this point, the goal is simply to keep things stable for the final weeks and see what the Cherry Limeade ultimately delivers 😎🌱. I’m definitely very curious about the final result. 📊 Current parameters: 💡 Light: 900 PPFD / DLI 39 → 800 PPFD / DLI 35 🌡️ Temperature: approx. 27 °C with lights on 💧 Humidity: 57% 📈 VPD: 1.5 kPa 🌿 CO₂: Avg. 740 ppm 💦 Water consumption: approx. 1.4 L/day

Some light defoliation on Critical.. all girls going great.. raising water volume tho, today was maintence day ! Critical is super thirsty at all !! Loving this crop 👌

Diese Woche kam endlich mein Luftbefeuchter von AC Infintiy an, habe die Luftfeuchtigkeit gleich mal auf 75% hochgeschraubt, ich denke in der aktuellen Phase habe ich noch kein hohes Risiko mit Schimmer. Ich werde die gleiche Luftfeuchtigkeit noch in der vierten Woche halten und danach suggestiv um 5% pro Woche runter gehen. Außerdem habe ich diese Woche eine halbe BTI Tablette auf 10l Wasser eingesetzt um die Trauermücken ein bisschen unter Kontrolle zu bekommen. Außerdem habe ich Reismilch angesetzt, selbige werde ich morgen mit Milch mischen, dann einige Tage warten und dann die daraus resultierende Milchsäure als Zusatz für das Gießwasser zu geben.

Going strong. Biggest seed in pack and she's showing. Bout to be Lst time.

Day 109 Its time to harvest the Juicy Zkittlez from seedsman 😇😇. I loved doing this project and it was my first try with my training on an autoflower, it was really motivating. A compact and frosty circle of heads, I couldn't have asked for better. So heavy that I had difficulty holding it with one hand for photos. Training : She received my hand manipulation training from the 8th day. I cut the head on day 19 to have my base on a manifold and work more quickly on my 4 main branches. Then I continued my training as much as possible to develop the structure before installing the scrog. I made a summary of photos on week 5 of flowering to see the evolution. Harvest I harvested almost 11 ounce , 10 ounce and 23 g. My training was based on quality and I'm really not disappointed with the minimum amount of nutrients she received. And it wasn't perfect for the first try with my new equipment.

Week 3 starting, plant is growing at its pace. I have installed the materials for starting LST. Humidity is hard to keep, so I water Emily every 2~3 days and check substrate very often

all in all it was a great run and im glad to have grew it and plan to grow it again in the future

So like I said. I don't follow directions to the T. Some said wait until 3 sets of true leaves come out to transplant, but I went ahead and just moved Ting 2 from plastic cup into 2 gallon cloth pot, using Fox Farm Ocean Forest. There's some leftover coco that I had from P4Ps blend that she is nestled in. I noticed her growth slowed down just a tad compared to Ting 1, but Ting 2 is still showing healthy growth with a great color and additional leaves still coming in. Remember, Ting 2 was sown directly into the medium without paper towel since OG Ting 2 went down the drain on accident. So I'm not concerned that she's just a bit smaller than Ting 2. They sit on the windowsill where they can get some tropical sun, but I do use supplemental lighting from a $35 4 head, 200 watt, LED grow light from Amazon. No high dollar lights over here. I'm just starting out and want to harness nature as much as possible for my indoor grow. I keep lights on an 18/6 schedule. I know some people do 24 hours, but IMO, plants need actual darkness to do their biological processes, and reach their full potential. For watering, I use a spray bottle to mist and keep top soil moist, and I water directly around the seedling. I'm impressed at how the Pot4Pot plant is quickly growing. For those unfamiliar with Pot4Pot it provides you with everything you need to grow autos. It came with coco, jiffy pellet, soil, diatomaceous stuff, and some growth hormone powder to mix into top soil. I picked the small 1/2 gallon kit. This plant already looks better than the one I tried to grow in December and officially died today. I am VERY curious to see how Pot4Pot grow will compare to some good old Ocean Forest. Also wanted to note I've placed the pots in front of a window that gets fed tradewinds that have touched lush mountains and ocean spray. Totally romanticized what is just a breezy window, but for real, it's a mountain breeze which could contribute to a great tasting bud.

Let’s go 🔥🔥🔥 Lampe auf 12/12 bei 60% 💡 Der Wassertank ist wieder am Start! 🌊 Sie scheint es jetzt viel besser zu vertragen. Gegossen wird nur noch ganz dezent, um die Living Soil im oberen Bereich leicht feucht zu halten. Ab und zu gibt’s ein bisschen Komposttee – alles andere holt sie sich direkt aus der Erde. 🌱 Blüte seit dem 5.11 am Start und bisher läuft alles nach Plan 😎🍁

Since I can no longer get the humidity below 58% and the rust spots on some of the sugar leaves are getting bigger, I decided to harvest . Unfortunately I couldn't wait for the perfect time, so luckily I don't have any clear trichomes , about 75% cloudy ones and the rest amber. 67 Day's from Seed to Harvest

Thaught the yield would be bigger and the smell louder in generell.

Defoliation week. Cleaned up under the canopy, and clipped the subpar Bud sites under the canopy. Foliar spray in use until end of week 4. Started to drop the temp to simulate changing of the seasons. 70*f during lights on, about 63*f lights out. Start of the week had an issue with the tent. After watering, the tent humidity went up to 90%. I have my Humidifier set to keep VPD between .8 and 1.2 and the system was trying to balance out between temp and humidity. Got cold one night. 3 days into this week and I haven't watered since last week. Soil still has plenty of water in it.

Day 22. Last 3 girls got final house. 20 liters pots for those late runners. They look sad, but maybe big house and other girls will encourage them to kick in. I took last NL away and now humidity and lightning are a lot better. Will drop lights down in few days, but not a lot ... 16 girls again in one room ;)))) I changed names of diaries, because I will try to finish them indoors ... Happy Growing !!!

🤤

Had a lovely smoke all week , weighted in at 149 g of super frosty buds ( I’ve smoked at least 10g )

👌
