Hey growers, welcome back! This week marks week fourteen of the Pineapple Upside Down grow, and things are looking really good inside the tent. It’s been a smooth, steady week — no drama, no surprises, just solid, consistent growth. The plant has fully bounced back from the previous weeks and is showing great vitality. The new apexes have stretched out beautifully, filling the canopy in a balanced way. Every leaf looks healthy, rich in color, and there’s not a single sign of deficiency or stress. Environmental conditions have stayed right on target — temperature and humidity are stable, keeping the VPD in the sweet spot. The setup’s running quietly and efficiently, and it feels like the system has found its perfect rhythm. It’s been one of those weeks where you don’t really have to do much — just keep an eye on the parameters, enjoy how she’s developing, and let nature do the work. Watching her push out new growth every day is honestly the best part of the process. So yeah, a calm and satisfying week overall. The Pineapple Upside Down is thriving, and we’re right on track for the next stage. That’s it for this week’s update, growers. Thanks for following along — see you next week for a new chapter in the grow. Until then, peace and happy growing!

Start of week 5. after heavy flash and run off correction i need to wait til it dries and dial up the root zone to stable 1.2 to 1.4 EC and 6-6.1ph I need to water @ 5.8 ph and 1.0EC to achieve yesterdays final runoff of 1.6EC 6.4PH Good thing i rescued her yesterday as i found some slight tip burns.

she is growing healthy ... in her fourth week ... outdoors she has grown in form ... moderately ... and just waiting for her to show her great potential.......

Hello growers HNY! Last leg of the grow now maybe35-40 more days give or take for this girl. She is growing her buds at a steady pace. She is getting smelly with a nice gassy smell starting to fill my balcony and house. Watered in some sugars and cal/Epsom today and will wait for he to let me know when she needs more.

Week nine all of the girls are doing very well continuing to have a very fast growth no problems so far I had leap leafhoppers that were giving me some trouble early on, but they seem to be all gone now so that is great. The girls should have about 4 to 5 more weeks of veg so expecting another foot or two of growth before they hit that bud They’re all larger than the plants I grew in 2023 and the smallest plant was 4 pounds so still expectations are high excited to finish out this season

Let up all but a couple ties on each plant, definitely the mains are let off. Just kept a couple for airflow that will be unpinned eventually. Topped and supercropped a few taller branches to make the canopy even. Finished taking out the larf at the bottom, adjusted the lights brighter. Topdressed them with Build-A-Flower. Fed them their first non-casting fertilizer, Build-Bloom @ 1 tsp. http://twitch.tv/jaindoh

Sunday 24/03 - started flushing early, don’t want any of the bulkier plants to go too far into the amber territory! - will flush for 3 days, twice a day til Tuesday night, then harvest time!

Day 28 I was away for 5 days and wow the growth... I'm sold on the auto-pots 😂 Her top growth is a little burnt from the light I think while I was away she got a little too close 😂Wasn't expecting her to triple in size. Shes definitely starting to flower. Humidity a little high from the rain storm were having atm. Even though shes gone into flower so quickly easily still the largest auto ive had yet😍

+ Day 37: 3.0L bottle water EC 0.35 + 0.3ml/l CalMAg , 3.3ml/L Vega . PH 5.8 Suddenly increasing water consumption without saying anything :) It was basically drought in the early stages. This time I'm giving less. I'm going to try Pieters' handbook video (Canna) for mineral fertilizer (Canna). With 30-40% water content in the soil, I'm only watering what is consumed. For this, I got myself a parcel scale that is accurate to the gram up to 40 kg. This needs to be tested. Day 33: 3L bottle water EC 0.35 + 0.4ml/l CalMAg , 3ml/L Vega . PH 6.07 DIY Project fixed my Problem : + Top Values : 25.4°C ; 57%rH + Bottom Values : 23.0°C ; 64%rH Day 32 1L bottle water EC 0.35 with 0.4ml/L CalMag , PH 6.10 . Reduce EC in some spots . Build a shadow plane with reflective foil (diamnond tent foil). my new light is large as hell , and heating all around lol . this DIY project should fix it . Day 29 2.5L bottle water with 0.4ml/L CalMag 3.3ml/L Vega , PH 6.07 +

Not much to report. Their was some slight leaf curling so I bumped the light up more and hooked up the ventilation to get air flow going. Posted a video of the foliar feeding. Everything is half strength; Deep Breath, Snow Storm Ultra, and Alchemist Stout all 2.5ml. Yucca added at 1/16 tsp. Waited to foliar feed until now because I noticed the curling and realized I left it sealed off to long. Negative Pressure raised the humidity since there was no air flow. Other then that everything is good. Leafs are also a darker green then the Migro tent. But the Migro tent is a fucking beast, boosted the height up to the same as this BudBox because of the height. Karmic Connection will for sure be kept a lot shorter then Spotless Mind since the BlackDog will burn them if it gets to close.

The last week for all, i can harverst the pineapple for last but i don’t have space to manage the others cutted plants. I will put all togheter in the grow room to dry, i will stopped for the summer. I posted last photos, Saturday I’m going to harverst. I can wait one more week beacouse the tricomes are not at the perfect stage but i satisfieted, i need a break 😅.

Very happy thought I'd ruined the buds with a homemade spider mite spray. Brought contaminated top up soil into the grow room without sterilising, lesson learned. Spray worked perfectly though and washes off fine with no bad residue or taste. My spray bottle is going to forever smell like garlic I think 🙈😂

Topping

Flower are starting to smell very citrusy and are starting to stack buds. Looks like the stretch isn't leggy and the plant is stsying nice and compact

This week I used Canna RHIZOTONIC as a leaf spray instead of only putting it in my feeding for the roots. I have never done that before but i have seen good results when doing it. So now i will switch between Canna Cure and Canna RHIZOTONIC when spraying the plants. Did some LST again and a little Defoliation, i really try to keep the plants as small as i can keep them. Because i don't want them to get higher then my balcony fench. The plants are like 20 cm +- in height and the distance between the top of the plants and the top of the french is 60cm. Since I grow some sativas as well I expect them to grow a lot while in flowering stage, so i have to keep bending them because they can only grow for another 60cm maximum. I also have to clean stuff around the plants to give them some more space lol and might have to make a larger roof or a door, because some rain still rains inside from the side. I hope yall enjoyed :)

UPDATE - Saturday 13th March This week has been ok but I need to take it easy on the nutes! Especially with the soil one. Ooohhhhh 😵why did I use soil. It’s really annoying because it’s at weedy little seedling stage and iv obviously over fed it. I added some worm castings to the one on the right in the hempy bucket though , along with ecothrive biosys They should break down fairly quickly given how packed with microbes and micorhyzae to buffer the ph of my hempy buckets to where I need them to be. I don’t even bother with my ph pen now. I’m glad I didn’t spend £69 on one but it would be good to get a decent one at some point. It’s not top of the list though. Grow space number three is looming and this time I actually have the equipment. Only problem is I don’t want to use my old converted wardrobe. It’s too small and pretty pointless. If I’m going to have a tent in my studio flat space where I have to hear the fans or rather the varispeeds hum. I’m very tempted to take the big grow tent out of that room and then paint the walls bright white and just vent the room. Instead of the tent. The ductings already there. Then I could move the bigger tent somewhere else in the flat. The thing is - I started growing to provide me with my medicine,however, I’m in prohibition-land. So far I haven’t had the space to be able to get a monster harvest. My last one was the best so far I think it was 2.5oz between three plants. I have decided to turn it into an auto tent (shout out to fast buds for sponsoring me) They are just so easy. At first I was worried because i thought the lights were on longer but they finish so god dam quick from seed to smoking. I’m f surly sure curing autos must take longer than growing them. That fastberry is coming along nice but It’s such a non bushy plant. Like lanky but in a good way. A lanky green stem with these random bright purple buds on the tops. This is the first grow I’m going to use a proper magnification device when I need to check trichomes. I think iv been harvesting too early. Well actually just last time because I was scared the police were coming. LOONG story. Anyway, I’m looking forward to being able to see those thrich’s get cloudier and cloudier. Will make some nice source photographs for my art also. I nabbed these awesome plant holder uppers that just poke into the soil in the pot and they are round and have sections to put cola’s through. They look really perfect for auto’s final bushy look once trained.
