Last week of flushing and next week we harvest 😁

Ladys Gets bigger

Week 2 of Bloom

Baox coming along nicely after the transplant to a bigger pot. I'm planning on moving these girls outside in the next week or so, then I expect them to take off!!! 👍

This week was good, stopped feeding nutes, ro water only, the buds are so solid, nice and thick. Didn’t think this was going to be so big, the 16”x16” fits the growbed perfect, it the plant is a little cramped, a 24”x24” would be perfect, as the branches would be able to droop more and allow more light to some lower growth. However after this I’m using these tents to do smaller scrog plants, which are photos. And I’ll do the auto-flowers in a more open environment.

Day 78-84

Week number seven for my little monster 💚 This week I set up the Scrog net to make it as wide as possible. This beauty needs space! 🌳 Three good liters of nutrient-rich water for her this week. So far, I’m really happy with the results 💥 As always, stay tuned! ♣️

Woche 5 Die Ladys wurden ein bisschen entlaubt und wachsen sonst sehr stabil, bin soweit zufrieden. Noch ca 7 Wochen liegen vor uns 😊

belle plante

Die Umstellung auf 12/12 ist erfolgt, somit ist der Stretch eingeleitet. Jetzt haben sie gut 3 Wochen Zeit, um zuzuwuchern, bevor sie dann endgültig defoliert und gelollipoppt werden. Mal schauen, was sie an Höhe noch so zulegen...

The feed on this week's post is for the RQS Wedding Cake Auto. The FB And Bruce Banner got 1 tsp of BAS Coconut powder and 2 tsp of molasses. The Wedding Cake also got a small top dressing of 2 tbsp of craft blend a buildaflower. Im not too sure on what's going on with the wedding cake but im letting it ride out.

Calibrated pH meter. Was a little reading high. Started tracking runoff for each plant separately. Mex is very brittle. Broke another branch. Still pretty full. Seem to have the base nutrients dialed in. pH is not longer an issue. Growth is still moderate to slow. Holding off on final topping until nodes grow better. Realized I pruned too high and I lost the node I was going to top for. Plants range from about 6” (bw3) to “10 (mex)

🌸 Final Cure & Smoke Report Sticky Broccoli Feminized After 12 days of controlled drying and an additional 2 weeks of curing, Sticky Broccoli has fully revealed its final character. The flowers were dried under stable environmental conditions and cured in Terploc Grove Bags at 19°C, allowing the terpene profile and overall flower quality to develop exceptionally well. 👀 Appearance & Bag Appeal One of the most striking features of Sticky Broccoli is its visual appeal. The flowers display: -Dense and well structured buds -Heavy trichome coverage -Beautiful green grey and slightly bluish coloration -Vibrant deep red pistils tightly wrapped around the flowers The contrast between the frosted buds and the intense red pistils creates outstanding bag appeal and gives the flowers a premium appearance. The SCROG training throughout the grow cycle clearly paid off. Aside from a small amount of popcorn buds (approximately 33g), the harvest consisted almost entirely of large, uniform flowers with excellent structure and consistency (Total 318g). 👃 Aroma & Flavor The aroma closely reflects what was observed during late flowering. Sweet candy like notes dominate the profile, accompanied by creamy dessert characteristics and fruity undertones reminiscent of Gelato and Zkittlez type cultivars. After curing, additional depth emerged, introducing a slightly sharper and more complex edge to the bouquet. The flavor translates remarkably well from aroma to smoke, delivering: -Sweet fruity notes on the inhale -Creamy dessert-like undertones -A noticeable gassy and slightly plant-forward finish on the exhale The combination creates a rich and enjoyable smoking experience with multiple layers of flavor. ✨ Overall Impression Sticky Broccoli proved to be an exceptionally rewarding cultivar from seed to cure. The strain combined: - Excellent genetic stability - Strong training response - Heavy resin production - Attractive coloration - Dense flower structure - Complex terpene expression From cultivation to the final cured product, the entire process remained consistent, predictable, and highly satisfying. The final result is a harvest with impressive visual appeal, strong aroma, enjoyable flavor, and flower quality that fully reflects the effort invested throughout the grow cycle. A cultivar that successfully delivered on every stage of the journey.

5/10 Got up super early for wife's appointment at 7 came home and transplanted 4 of the purple punches. Transplants went good. Soil was too dry and a couple fell right in the hole but I was messing around showing my dad. It just got dropped in the hole a little harder lol. The other that happened to is fine though. Definitely make sure your soil is moist enough before transplanting. My transplanting technique for 3 gallon is to put soil on bottom. Set cup in at appropriate distance then replace cup with plant with soil filled cup and fill around it. Leaves the perfect hole. Then you just snip the cups twice on each side, peel it down and fold the cup down and cradle the bottom and in the hole it goes! Holes have mykoscand a little like water. I water a little after transplant. I misted soil whole mixing it up. 5/11 Dad left the windows open last night "because the soil smell was bothering Lynda." I couldn't ficking believe it. They were all fine when I got back but still. Everything is transplanted into 3 gallon containers bit that 1 purple punch that is a little bit dwarfed. I looked at the bottom of the cup and drainage wasn't as good. Must've been the last cup and the jail didn't go all the way through in a couple places. I increased the drainage on that little dwarf and I'll transplant it when I get time. We are going to have some good weather coming up. I need to get my cage moved, my bags sanitized and get on a good watering routine. UPDATE: Went back over at four and everything's dry as fuck but the leaves are uo and every one of them looks happy so I'm holding off watering. I'll start with a quart probably tomorrow. Also cleaned out tge cage and secured the handles to move it. Only thing left is cleaning and sanitizing. These girls have a south facing window and they LOVE it. It was 80 today. I hope we have an early season. 5/12 Transplanted the last purple punch today. I could easily tell the problem was drainage. It was the last cup I had stacked when I drove the nail threw so it didn't pierce all the way the the other slips and tac holes apparently weren't enough. Used mykos and same soil mixture. Soil was extremely dry. I lifted a pot with dry soil and these were heavier. Commercial buddy said to start with a quart a pliant and see how it goes but I kind pussed out and only gave them 24fl 0z a plant. Half the quart. I asked if I should water more and he said to just wait and see how they like this water and up it to a quart next time maybe quart and a half. Im just leery of overwatering. When i watered SOME of them the water literally just sat there and took forever to absorb. Plants werent wilting though. Soon theyll be going outside during the day and in mdoors at night. UPDATE: Went back over at two and everything looks AMAZING. Healthiest looking plants I've grown. Leaves all pointed up. I'm taking my commercial dudes advice and hoping the water next watering. For now, they're doing amazing. 5/13 Everything is doing greatcso far. Gotta figure out when to start nutes. Considering adding silica but don't want to raise ph to much. I'll consult with others but my the soil blend I'm using is full of nutes. 5/14 Rushed morning and I wanted to water bit the plants looked great still. Sticking my hands deeper I can feel a little moisture deeper down or in the drain holes so I decided to give the blueberry cheese and the 10th planet a "touch of kindness" which was a small circle of water from a small watering can around the outside edge of whete the rootball should lid be. I'm working on getting a watering g schedule down. UPDATE: Went back over at five and everything was looking good with leaves praying. Maybe my half measure helped. Doubtful but still. Tomorrow I plan to water. Since the soil has tons of nites ill probably hold off a little while longer before starting the nutrient schedule. I want to make sure I've got the watering down first. One thing at a time. 5/15 The 10th planet and Blueberry Cheesecgot their first REAL watering since transplant. Still being cautious I watered 28fl Oz a plant. I phed the water with an indicator solution and ph down. I gave the purple punches a "cup of kindness" which was a circle of water around the transplant hole. Can't waif to get a watering schedule down. I wanted to start nutes but my soil is full of them and i believe it's too early. I didn't see ANY run off from this watering. I think that's good as I'm not looking to wash away the nutes in the expensive soil I use. I need to start HST as well but I'm doing things proper and "one at a time". That way if I run into a problem I'll know what I did and how to rectify it. At least I hope. UPDATE: Went back over at 3 leary that I may have "overwatered" but the plants ALL looked AMAZING and had shot up like an inch! Looking into hst and will probable fim a few. Top a few and leave one to grow naturally. Can't wait to see how these girls do outside. 5/16 Wow. Just wow. Plants are doing phenomenal! Since the watering went really well I watered the purple punch bit I only used about 16fl Oz as the plants were a little smaller than the others. I'll up it to a quart next time like I did with the others. I want to USE the nutes in my soil so im not washing them all away by watering to run off. I topped 2 10th planet's and FIMed one of them. I want to see how the respond then I'll begin training the others. Off to a Great Start! 5/17 Glad I held off watering. It's raining today. Just showers. We haven't gotten any of that extreme wind we usually do. I have the plants supported but I still worry. Definitely more than I should. Plants are still doing good and acclikatimg to their new homes.

It was finally time to harvest her, what good times we had with her. Amazed with how beautiful this plant is, how easy to manage and train and how rewarding Orange Hill Special is. So we said our thanks and goodbye, thanked her for all the joy she gave while growing her. I realize more and more how I love growing them even more than the end-product. It takes my mind of all going on for a while, in my miniature jungle world in the attic. Im sure all of you just sometimes sit there and watch them, in wonder, dreaming away with a good buzz on, watching them wave in the wind of the fans. So with a heavy hart I apologize, play them their last music, sit with them and feel them and smell them, watch the glistening of the cristals. In the end we had 209 gram dried Orange Hill Special, I will know the total of the grow, in a few days, since the final big whopper still has to dry: my XtraKush, be sure to check the harvest of that one *in couple of days) and see a one-dollar seed outperform two 10 dollar seeds. I probably go over 500 grams for the total grow, which would be 1.6 grams per watt. Big success! Consider an SP-3000 for your next light, you won't be disappointed! Check www.mars-hydro.com for the latest discounts! Thank you @MarsHydroLED for letting us try out your light, it made this successful grow possible! Greetings and all the best! Thank you to our friends here, our followers and the whole Growing Diaries community for just being there. Big Hug, Sunshine and BioBuds

No earlier pictures as only just found this site first ever grow

Buds are drying in a 55% relative humidity! They are already trimmed & in about a few days they will be cured in the grove bags! Happy with the end result for this run!
