Heavy defoliation, and feeding water only from now on

Saw spidermites setting up camp on the dark side of the plant on 1 bud site. There was no sign of them anywhere else. This plant is becoming more trouble than it’s worth and I’ve decided to chop her early after.

Gather 'round, because it's time for the grand finale of my Tropicana Cookies Auto journey. Week 10 has arrived, and boy, oh boy, this gal has been an absolute delight from start to finish. Let's dive into the final chapter of this epic adventure! I harvested my lovely lady at day 69 from seed, and let me tell you, it was a celebration of beauty and abundance. Picture this: a majestic all-girl harvest, suspended upside down for a glorious two-week drying extravaganza. At a temperature of 60 degrees Fahrenheit (15 degrees Celsius) and a relative humidity of 60%, the drying process unfolded like a symphony of perfection. Now, let's talk trichomes, shall we? Oh, those glorious little resin factories! This Tropicana Cookies Auto has blown my mind with the sheer amount of trichomes it boasts. It's like a frosty wonderland, sparkling like a million tiny diamonds. I've never seen trichomes in such numbers, shapes, and colors before. It's a trichome party, and everyone's invited! But let's not forget the benefits of the drying process. By allowing our precious buds to dry slowly and evenly, we're enhancing their flavors, aromas, and overall quality. It's like fine wine, my friends, getting better with age. Patience is the name of the game, and trust me, the reward is worth every second of anticipation. Now, let me take a moment to give a big shout-out to @Fast_Buds. They've truly outdone themselves with this Tropicana Cookies Auto. It's like they sprinkled magical trichome dust all over these seeds, ensuring a frosty experience like no other. They've got the genetics game on lock! So, my fellow cannabis enthusiasts, as we bid farewell to this remarkable journey, let's cherish the memories, the lessons learned, and the joy shared. From seed to harvest, this Tropicana Cookies Auto has captured our hearts and ignited our passion for the green wonders of the world. May your drying process be smooth, your trichomes plentiful, and your buds burst with flavor. Thank you, Tropicana Cookies Auto, for gracing my garden with your extraordinary presence.

My Sticky Rice plant is one of the smaller ones in the bunch, but don't let its size fool you! It's got these incredibly healthy, vibrant leaves that just scream 'good genetics.' I've got a feeling this little one's gonna surprise me – it might be small now, but I bet it's gonna pack a punch!" This past week has been a whirlwind of work, leaving little time for anything else. My phone's camera roll is sadly neglected, with only a few snapshots to show for it. But finally, I'm finding a moment to catch up on my grow diaries. It's been exciting to see the progress, even if it's just through photos. I'm looking forward to documenting the next stage!

She is looking good haven’t watered in a while as the continuous rain helped. I’m doping she can gain more height in the next 2 weeks as I intend to flower her into the dry season.

I did so defoliation about 3 days ago and they are back with a lots of leafs lol.

24.02.24 - 1.03.24 Red hot cookies performing stunnigly as always. This is a true beauty and a wonderful plant. Very healthy and sturdy. Yesterday I already noticed some distinct candy mandarine aroma with some chocolate cookies mixed in. Lets hownshe develop those lovely colours ans smell. One of the older plants is already fed 7 times a day. Thats a record for me. In around 9l of coco.

06/12: c'est le moment de commencer à compter les semaines de floraison. Arrosage ce matin qui a été suivi par une drôle de réaction de la part de la plante je n'arose que très peu depuis le début vus que c'est une automatique et aujourd'hui après deux jours de canicule et 3 jours depuis le dernier arrosage. Enfin voilà ce matin j'arrose et les feuilles deviennent tombante je me dit ok: attendons quelques heures voir ce qui se passe et je l'a retrouve dans une forme holympique. Mise quotidienne du LST. 06/13: arrosage 1L *engraisser 06/14: vague de chaleur. ... je sent que je vais vite devoir arroser de nouveau la chaleur et les ventilateurs et pot en geotextiles égale substrat qui sèche vite! 06/16: arrosage 1.2L (engraisser) 06/17: température extérieure 33*C température dans la box 30*C malgré cette vague de chaleur la wcc réagi plutôt bien on dirait qu'elle aime la chaleur et le vent plus que les vario. Que j'ai grow jusqu'à présent. 06/18: la temperature retombe sous les 30°C ouf temp. dans la +/-26° arrosage 1.5(AN ph Perfect grow pour corriger un manque d'azote + bud candy) (j33)

Plant has grown dramatically this week lol, about 10 cm in length, in a weird formes tho, but no complains. Can't stop admiring the Sodium lamp. Also does not dissapoint it's smell, barely feeling it.

Las plantas frenaron su crecimiento bestial. El sustrato se lo comieron en 2 semanas y rapido comenzaron a mostrar inicios de carencias a partir de las 2da semana. Las pase a la cantela de 500 L, corte el fondo de las macetas. Volvi a enmendar el suelo. Queda que se recuperen para volver a despegar

They all are getting close to harvest except Gorilla Glue which decided to out grow tent. Had to open vent and add light for top cola. Ugh

04/10 empieza la 4ta semana, la semana que empiezan a formarse las flores, parece que el riego con cal - mag + top bloom funcionó. 05/10 se riega con 2 litros EC: 0,5 ph: 6.4 07/10 se riega con 3 litros de agua. Se uso agua de ósmosis inversa + Cal mag para llegar a EC 0.4 y se agregan 4.5 ml de Big One de top crop. EC final 0.5 PH: 6.4 No hay drenaje, parece haber tenido sed estos días 10/10 último día de la semana. se riega con 5 litros de agua para obtener drenaje porque sospechaba que el ph estaba bajando nuevamente y otra vez me encontré con el ph del sustrato en 5.8. Voy a empezar a regar con el ph en 6.8 o 7 hasta corregir eso.

| Week 8 is in the books, as is week 9 and 10 to be honest - but I don't have to be, so just week 8. Yap. Climate management is now the main focus | Humidity has been out of control as I flip my AC from cooling to drying mode. Which, as you may know, like I do now, just causes a maximally cold jet stream and your dry air goes *poof* outside the building. So no help there. Ye old SF Dehumidifier is looking at this tent and sweating out what it can, which is not a lot. The result is a VPD that is way too low for my plants to uptake more nutrients with, and this for almost a week straight. Cultivars -- are doing just fine to be honest * Auto Cinderella Jack has been recovering from my super-late pruning interventions, so I gave it a last round. She grew out what feels like another smaller Autoflower as she realized what is possible with her new structure. I can't trim another bag of larfy buds for 16 hours straight, so I had to make a choice. The nutrient uptake being impaired by VPD alone (her DLI is a bit too high here as well) means no big buds as the clock is ticking. * Apollo Haze Auto is just trucking along. I am watching in awe on how big these bud bases are getting. She seems a little advanced for her age,. Stem rub is pure lemon bliss, buds otherwise reek a bit of a healthy musk I would not buy off the shelves for. I am not worried - her trichomes burst out with lemon and sours / bitters when ruptured. * Super Orange Haze Auto continues to dominate the tent with a sweet and subtle mandarine aura. Her rested state smell is starting to get a bit funky however, sesqueterpenes are accumulating as a dense protective layer. I do not hower fancy a tiny cheesy tingle in that mix :) Also looking pretty advanced for 8 weeks, I am starting to wonder what caused the racing. It likely is the same cause that spawned nanners (they seem to have stopped spawning). I attached vids, pics, stats. Hope you find something you enjoy. Happy growing everyone. - Pete

She's grown 18cm this week! Entered flowering too. Looking lovely!!! Very cute. A mini weed plant 😂 😍

Básicamente lo mismo, aunque está semana pilló bastante más horas de luz(tuve que irme fuera de casa dos findes seguidos, en los cuales la dejé con la luz encendida full 24/7 en la caja) Como experiencia utilicé café reposado 48h para "alimentarla" e intentar bajar el Ph de la tierra (coco ph6+hummus ph7+vermiculita ph8= ph total 7) El otro experimento fue cubrir la tierra con coco para que el tallo eche raíces y aprovechar su espigamento! Las horas de luz solía dejarla 8h en bombilla mientras duermo, y el día la pongo en la ventana a que tome el fresco, pero apenas tiene luz directa, me da la sensación que crece más rapido cuando vuelvo del finde, estoy replanteandome tenerla más tiempo en la caja con luz, porque la veo aún pequeña, y quizá ponerle un ventilador de pc o algo🤔..veremos, aún tengo el papel de aluminio al lado de la caja y ni se lo he puesto, con eso os lo digo todo☝️🎃
