Sidecar Strain description from breeder: Genetic Background: Strawberry#13 x Mimosa Type: Feminized Sativa 60% Indica 40% THC: CBD: Yield Indoor : gr/m2 Height Indoor: 0 - 0 cm Flowering time: 8 - 9 weeks ( 58 - 65 days) Aroma: 
Effect: Expectations and training method: I know these genetics are a bit delicate so I’ll be taking things very easy. The breeder suggests topping and training the branches because she can grow fast and tall. By what I’ve seen from the local growers, she can produce some savory chunky buds which is what I’m aiming for. I’ll follow the breeder’s suggestion and Top/LST which is what I’ll be doing to almost all my other strains as well on this run. As for the yields I’m not expecting much given the numbers I got from local growers. No more than 40 grams per plant but always aiming for more. I’ve already smoked this strain grown by the breeder and other local breeders, which is what made me want to grow it myself. I expect nothing but trichomes and terps from these ladies. Equipment used in this cycle: Tent: Dutch Masters 120x240x220cm Lights: 1 x EasyGrow S800v2 1 x Mars Hydro TSW2000 1 x Mars Hydro FC3000 Ventilation: Garden HighPro - ProFan TT Extractor Fan - 150mm Garden Highpro - ProActiv Carbon Filter - 150mm Garden Highpro - ProFan Oscilating Clip Fans - 25cm Blauburg - Inline Fan - 125mm Humidifier: Garden Highpro - Humipro Digital Humidifier - 4 liters Pots: Garden Highpro 11L Fabric pots Medium: Biobizz Light Mix Nutrients: Grotek - Mycrorizo Plagron- Alga grow, Alga Bloom, green sensation and royal sugar.

I think I didn’t use enough nutrients… leaf tips are little bit burnt, EC too high? I don’t measure my EC, only pH.

Week 8 - 11/05/26 She got a well needed stripping and had her branches readjusted. Improved light penetration, improved airflow. she needs to get some more height on her. 3 more weeks left in veg i think, then she'll be ready.

This week, Cheese developed a lot of hairs, gave her a good feeding rising the nutes, as this plant eats a lot... Aroma is getting so intense, for sure this is a true Skunk ^^, but not cheese smell at the moment By the end of this week started fattening the buds.. She is so healthy... Talking about irrigations, im doing this in the moorning and later an afternoon flush when the sun goes down(Not flushing since second week of flowering) -------- Good vibes !

I put the plants into an NFT system couple weeks ago. I could have waited a bit longer for the plants to develop a stronger root system before placing the rockwool cubes into NFT but I was being impatient because of the slow start and wanted to get the plants under proper light. Now two weeks later they are growing well with good root development. I switched the lights to flowering cycle about a week ago so they should start stretching soon. No preflowers yet.

Шишки набухают на глазах, и это меня радует. С завтрашнего дня исключаю азот, делаю калийно-фосфорный удар, и выходим на финишную прямую. Добавил диоды синего. 06/05 PH6,0 PPM950 👉Планирую сделать интересный досвет низов по периметру, оставайтесь на связи. Спасибо, что заглянули, и будьте здоровы! 🙏 Продолжение следует ...😶

With the very good weather here tnhe plants managed to almost double in height in 7 days time. Due to rain i didn't have to water the plants manually. Everything looks well. Sometimes i have to remove some aphids but a few of them won't hurt the plant that much. I sprayed the plants with Cannacure hope it helps a bit.

Was a pretty smooth week for most the girls. Showing some steady growth. I topped all of the plants around day 12 other than the slurricane 7. Ph got a little high since the nutrient level was too low to buffer it at the beginning of the week. Slurricane 7 and sugar cane are the ones that took some damage. I think they will be ok though. I upped the nutrients to 1/4 tsp per gallon and the ph has held stable since then. Should be able to start some training the middle of next week and looks like we might be going 2 more weeks on veg before flipping them to flower depending on how this upcoming week goes. Guess you will have to show up next week to find out...

This week was ok. For the most part, the plants seem to be more healthier this week than the last 2. I decided to do a light flush yesterday on all plants. I ran 5 gallons of light strength nutrients through each plant. I can say that it did benefit the plants judging by the run off..i was able to get my runoff ph up to 5.7. At 1st I was getting 5.3. All of this happened because I didn't calibrate my ph pen from the last grow. Lesson learned. My initial goal was to flip into flowering next week which would complete an 8 week veg, but now i won't flip until I know the ladies are fully healthy. We shall see how they respond this next week..ill keep yall updated in my next upload

I'm very happy with how these came out. They finished right in the breeders estimated flowering time and they smell amazing. The front plant has more of a really strong grape Jolly Rancher smell to it and the back one smells just like Fruity Pebbles cereal. Update 6/20: Just finished trimming the plants and they are now going into a curing bucket. Total dry weight is 211g and the bud smells incredible!

So finally a dream come set off my next run . Thank you so much to the anonymous generous-hearted genetics inventors who sent me these mysterious seeds. Soaked them with a few drops of kelp extract concentrate i had made for my last grows. Meanwhile this is a bio tabs run, and let me just take the time right now to thank BIG K from @biotabs_f69 for all the help learning more about biotabs ! So it's a front loaded activity, followed the instructions on the box for the biotabs, placed two, added the myco to the substrate and the plug hole watered with orgatrex and my very own smart protein you guys. This is a different type of additive that works like carbos but is directly accessible to the plant. Let's see how it works out ! Germination rate for me was 10/10 , poked out overnight, now the veg begins. I'll be applying a variety of techiques while i set up a perpetual rotation. Advice welcome 🚀 watering 200 ml twice to three times a day , carefully as to not compact the soil - just something i learned from my last grow that really works out over time ! 🚀

Week 7 there hasn’t been any changes for either of the girls. Girl #1 is still looking the same. It seems she has finally stopped stretching. Looking forward to seeing her bulk up in the coming weeks. Girl #2 still hasn’t showed any signs of flowering. I’m gonna continue to be patient with her in hopes of her just being a very late bloomer. Everything has been running smoothly. I will start to introduce bloom nutes in the next coming weeks. I didn’t expect girl#1 to get so big but I’m not complaining. This has been such a pleasing and educational experience. Thank all of those who have viewed my diary. Thank you again for your support.

Lost about 2 weeks in documentation however her transition to direct soil is really successful. I may pollinate her with some Durban Skunk Pollen and Blue Skunk pollen.
