Die Damen sind offiziell in die Vorblüte gestartet. Bis jetzt gab es keinerlei Schädlingsprobleme, aber ab diesem Stadium gilt für mich Safety first – denn in der Blütephase kommen nur noch natürliche Mittel zum Einsatz. Daher setze ich auf biologische Helfer, die eventuelle ungebetene Gäste direkt wieder vor die Tür – oder in ihren Magen – begleiten. Zur Unterstützung habe ich von WizzysGarten den Pflanzengeflüster-Booster eingesetzt, um den Ladys einen Extra-Energieschub zu geben, damit sie kräftige und aromatische Blüten ausbilden können. Außerdem wurde nochmal entlaubt und leicht gelollipopped, um Licht und Luft optimal zu lenken. Die ersten Blütenansätze zeigen sich bereits – es geht los! ✨🌸

I thought I just had two of this strain, but it turns out that the 134g plant was actually a C4 hybrid! It isn't as pungent smelling as the others, but seems to have it's own unique flavor going on. I like it! 115g - C4ndycaine [Candy Cane x C4] 134g - C4ndycaine [Candy Cane x C4] 151g - C4ndycaine [Candy Cane x C4]  TOTAL: 400g 👍

Hows my purple queen looking?

She stretched on me last time. But I was too heavy with the light right away. Gave her light burn. I raised the light and turned it down to 25%. I think she’ll be fine. I’m excited to see how she’s going to do in a 5 gallon!!

Hey everyone 🤗. This week was harvested properly 😍. All of them are harvested, except for the two Tropicanna Banana (they will be on tomorrow). All finished crop images follow little by little as soon as they have dried enough and have got their actual bud structure 😃. I wish you much fun with the diary, stay healthy Ges and let it grow 🌱

Starting week 6 , going full force with the nutrient dosages for the next 2 weeks and getting them ready after for their final flush week Problems i had to deal with but i didnt was clearly the defoliation as i got a bit lazy start dealing with that twice, i ll just leave them as they are and see how their final development is

Week 17 Last week before harvest. Just let the plants ending the maturation process. Good synchronization between the different strains, selected with an approximate identical flowering period. I want harvesting all the plants at the same time. Flowers are dense, hard and thick, pretty resinous. 4 strains = 4 different smells, 4 different colors….🤩 I flushed consciously and stopped watering 4 days before the harvest day. I turned off the light during 48h, with ventilation on. All is ready for the cut. Date is programmed to the full moon period….why not…🤔 I will trim a little bit the plants before cutting and hanging them in the tent with the same ventilation cycle, no light of course…

The plants are now growing slower in height and start to develop real flower clusters at all tops. Both Barbarian (=AK-47 x Barbara Bud) plants are bushy with lots of budding sites, but plant#2 is now 15 cm taller than plant #1, which is a little more bushy than #2. Both plants are healthy and still enjoy the normal recommended feeding schedule from Advanced Nutrients.

No Nutes Yet.

*Increased PPM from 800 to 850 *Week 2 of flowering tomorrow. *Out of the 4 only one looks like it’s more advance into flowering. *Did some Lolipoping.

It's surprising how well this little Northern Light is doing considering the 400ml pot and organic nutrients! I'm a proud parent 😊

After a weeks growth in four litre pots I defoliated them ready to go into flower. Started feeding them full strength with coir feed even though they are in soil. Looking happy so far, I'm tight on space so will keep them in check if I can as they flower.

Day 88, 30th of October 2020: I am just back from my holiday my friend looked after her really nice the 4th week already and buds are coming nicely along.... Great to see this beautiful lady very stinky by the way.... Smell is strong...🤪 She is very nice.... ;) I removed some leaves getting pointless to be as she focuses more on the buds.... Those leaves were removed from the top mostly.... Now she gets one day extra darkness and but previously she had more dark hours than 12 hours because she was removed in the morning and back in the evening because she is in the tent with other plants and they are in veg now....🤪🤣🤣 I just started changing the schedule for those as well so from tomorrow no need to remove her and putting back.... ;)

So this plant came down 10 days ago she weighted 270 grams after a complete wet trim (removed 90% of the leaves ) and hang her to dry at 55%rh and 22c for 5 days and then put in mason jars and today its day 6 in the jars and already very tasty .. so really happy of the outcome super quality and good yield . She is an easy plant to grow and fast too !! One of the fastest i grew too delivered 75 grams in 80 days from seed to harvest so not bad .. surely will grow this strain again and really recommend it to all of you if you still didn't try it out.. thanks for answering my questions about this girl and for all the views and likes hope you enjoyed watching it and sorry for the grammatical errors i make English is not my first language.. Happy growing everybody and stay lifted !!!

The plant grows Gorilla Soil pour only water. Let’s see what comes out ❤️🍀😎

This was a big week of defoliating and lollipopping,,being that from pinning her down,,,and her laterals becoming their own leaders,,i have excess tops to work with,,which brings plenty of defoliating to keep the Bud sights with as much air and lumens drenching them,, It’s time to sit back and watch the grass grow

Flowering Week 20: Structural Surprises & Purple Promises Update: 28.07.2025 | Day 143 Hey Growmies, Apologies for the radio silence! Between vacation and kid adventures, the diary took a backseat. But the ladies? They’ve been busy. Here’s the catch-up: Emergency Support Mission - Durban’s weight crisis: Side branches cracked under their own mass – one even split the main stem! - Field fix: Stabilized with 4 stakes + speaker wire (ugly but effective). - Lesson learned: Next run = heavy-duty support before stretch. Strain Check: Durban Poison (African Queen) - Growth style: Less height (expected 2m+), more lateral explosion – new shoots daily make her look like 3 plants in one. - Flower status: White pistils stacking at branch tips. - Smell: Still discreet (neighbor-safe… for now). - Health: Vibrant green – zero stress signs. Blueberry - Surprise stretch: Nearly hit 2m (like a sativa!). Half Durban’s width but elegant. - Stem power: Thicker trunk than Durban – mini-tree status. - Color preview: Purple stems emerging! Buds may follow suit (fingers crossed). - Support needed: Prepping for heavy buds to avoid branch snaps. Care & Environment - Feeding: Pure Bokashi juice (no extras) – they’re thriving on it. - Pests/mold: None spotted. Dry summer helping. - Weather: About 20° C and really high humidity. Next Steps - Build 4-stake + twine support grid (multiple height tiers). - Monitor Durban’s odor spike as flowering advances. - Pray to the mold gods for a dry autumn (purple buds = mold camouflage). Week 20 Takeaway Never underestimate the weight of the branches and the effect of a little strom. I could possible fuck up my grow. Alright folks, as always: Catch y’all next week – no more hiatuses! – Smoking_Joe_Frazier
