Buds are already getting nice and dense. Thick coat of trichomes is already glistening. Flower production has been very on point! Very hardy colas flying off these girls. Very excited for this one. I reduced the nitrogen dose again. I also stopped giving them vigorous. Its a pure bloom mix now as these ladies are booming with flowers. Until next update. Happy growing and stay lit fam.

Dear Growers :o) Im back with report. I can recommend this strain for many reasons ! First of all i would like to summerize the grow. The plant was first in my garden outdoors, where i did plant to measures of the 70x70 tent. That bring som eproblems at start with bugs and other stuff, but we survived! Next and last was my mistake to mix soil and coco, because when the coco dries it brings over nutri problems. I will learn from my mistakes and hopefully continue with next gro documentary here. Now im sure i will move from tent to regular furniture custom grow box, to be as stealth as i can and to prevent noise in the flat and smell... The strain : BCN Critical is really great plant , very potent and with nice orange trichomes. Covers with sticky and glossy resin. At the end of the flowering i hit in the box 75% of humidity and mold started in few buds, but in this extremew conditions. on the other hand i have few plants still outside and they are compeltely healthy (15 degrees during day and 90% humidityx near the river) so I can recommend this strain. the outcome from the one plant in the box was 132g ( 60g of big 3-4g buds) the rest are like tip of finger im satisfied with the result under 200W led lumii black light ! the smoke is really clean, with citrus touch, smells very strong from smoke, but the best is from vape! After few puffs You can feel uplifting high, then relaxed. Not my favourite terpenes profile, but really interesting. after 2 hours U can smoke again :).In compare with outdoor harvest its not so heavy to body high. thanks for watching my diary and keep growing !

Day 36: I bend the branches even more, cut off the top leaf that covered 2 buds, one of them is very small, I hope to give it at least a little chance to grow. This is a victim of a broken branch.

Welcome to my Strawberry Cola Auto by Exotic Seeds Both SCA are nearly on the same track. I uprooted 1 and decided to put them both into 1 8L pot. As the plants grow i'll LST them 1 to 1 corner and 1 at the other end. Before they progress too much into their veg, the 8L of soil in an 18L pot. Without disturbing the soil as much as possible. I have something i put down the sides of the pot and upturn them bringing out the whole base of the substrate sides without the sub falling away from the sides, then they'll be transferred directly into an 18L pot. Lifting the sides up, and hopefully this will hinder any excess stress that you don't want to put on any auto as it'll most likely stunt them and hinder their possibility of giving a substantial harvest. Both seeds are on days 5-7. The 7 day old one was uprotted, so I expect a day or 2 stun, so they should be on or near the same growth rate. So far, I really like the way these autos are growing. I had fastbuds straw cola and tbh, I'm not a big fan of this flavour so, hopefully this strain will have something that charges my perspective. Decided to give them a dose of artios touch for any stress. Thanks to my sponsors Mars-Hydro & Spider-Farmer for allowing me to use their products. This is my 4th run with the FC 3000 and my 2nd crop with my SE5000. I'll be doing 9-11 mothers and 6-7 autos X 2 so 12-14 autos in 2 stages as the females go through a 4-5 month grow.

Still not given any food at 35 days since popping. She's growing well and I've put her in a 4ltr pot. I've pinched the top out to slow down the vertical growth.

Outside of issues that were due to my learning curb definitely happy with the results. The plant that is actually dolato has such a wonderful scent. If it was certain that I would 5 of 5 dolato plants instead of 2 out of 5 with a Gelato I would do it again

La Etapa de Enraizamiento la desarrollo perfectamente igual que en crecimiento y en Floración, de 10 todo. Pensé que iba hacer difícil de cultivar ya que no es fácil esta genética. Recomiendo como ya dije al banco de semillas BSF y a Top Crop por los buenos productos! El 26/07 corte la planta para ya iniciar su etapa en secado, vamos a ir viendo como va surgiendo.

May 31st Everything is looking good after the LST from last week, I said I was going to swap them into flower and I realized that I should wait another week or so as they will be going into a new home so to speak. Updates coming next week for that. Doesn't look like to many PH issues anymore or whatever was happening but the plants seem a bit happier now June 1st I Figured today would be a good day to do a bit of defoliation on these girls in order to get some more light down to the newer growth. I didn't take a ton off as you can see, but for the size of the plant I suppose it was a decent amount. I read somewhere that a general rule of thumb is only defoliate roughly 30% of the plant at most. I'm not to sure if it is true but I tried to stay within that general rule. June 2nd, I decided since I would have them in veg for at least a little while long I would top them again. After topping I gave them some water and nutrients. I know I said I would do straight water for the next one but I went for it anyways as it seems the flowering mixture may be giving it some deficiency's. So I gave them the recommended feeding for heavy veg growth. I gave about 3L to the bigger plant and around 2L to the smaller plant (as it was still a bit moist but it wasn't damp). My crappy soil tester was saying my soil was at around 8PH so I figured I would aim to feed around 6ph. With the small amount of runoff from the smaller plant I did A PH test and the PH seemed to be around the 4.5-5ph area. My liquid ph meter arrived broken so I am waiting for the new one, therefore I am using the general hydroponics liquid test kit. I presume my soil ph is lower then the water I have given seeing as it went from 6ph water to around 4.5. Next feeding I will aim to feed at 7PH. With the defoliation I just made sure that the tie downs were decently tight still and moved what I thought needed to be moved. June 3rd,4th Not a ton to update on. I didn't get any pictures for these 2 days. June 5th Some obvious problems going on with the bigger plant. I am guessing it is the PH issue but I am still unsure. The one browned leaf I accidentally squished in the tie down while I was low stress training it so it got a bit damaged. Other then that the plants are growing decent. Im not sure why I didn't have more pictures for today but I mainly took problems of the problem areas. June 6th Not much going on still. They are still just hanging out not doing to much. It was a busy work week so pictures in general were a bit lazy. I will try to get more for the upcoming weeks. Big news for next week!

Dutch Passion - Melonads Runtz, 60 days since we planted the seed in soil, and she’s now standing tall at 85 cm, looking absolutely explosive! This girl is thriving, with vibrant growth and strong structure. We’ve been feeding her with Xpert Nutrients, and you can see the results – lush, healthy leaves and a promising amount of bud sites. It’s clear she’s loving the care and attention, and we’re excited to see what the next weeks bring!

WEEK 20 Soooo, we’re pretty much at the end now. I harvested the plants on the last day of this week, and I was thrilled. During the final week, I mostly watered with plain water, except for a bit of Green Sensation that I added. I let my CO₂ level drop to 600 ppm and also dialed back the light a bit—down to around 700 to 800 PPFD. Unfortunately, it was still quite warm here this week, so I didn’t manage to lower the temperature any further. It’s definitely worth doing, especially in the last few weeks. But in my opinion, turning off the climate unit isn’t really worth it, so I kept running things pretty hot. The plants didn’t seem to mind the temperature much in my case. I had consistently high temperatures throughout the flowering phase, but I’ve been supplementing CO₂ from a gas bottle, which significantly increases their tolerance to heat. Overall, the buds really got another nice boost over these last few days. I think you could let them go even longer if that suits your taste. But I’m excited to harvest now. 🙂🙂🙂

12/28/2023: soaked my Peat Pellet in distilled water, mixed with a dash of Rootwise Mycrobe Complete, and planted the seed directly into it. Put into my 2x4 tent, which is currently running 20 hours on a 4 hours off. Temps are about 82° F when lights are on with an averge RH between 80% and 85%. 12/31/2023: She finally sprouted today! In order minimize any transplant stress, I added her to the 10 gallon pot of BuildASoil 3.0 today, and sprinkled some OptiVeg and Dynomyco into the hole. Gave her a very light watering, since I watered the pot pretty heavily a few days ago, when I planted my cover crop. So, there should be enough water for a while.
