Hello, On Monday evening, I watered with a supplement of 1 gram of Trichoderma and 1/2 teaspoon of dolomite lime to boost calcium and magnesium levels. Today, I defoliated, keeping only the top 2 or 3 sets of flowers to concentrate energy on the top buds, knowing they haven't finished growing. Incidentally, I found 5 male flowers on the lower part of the plants, but they're still closed, phew! I slightly re-trained my plants. From today onward, my watering schedule will be. I'm really moving into the flowering phase and I'm adding Green Sensation to my nutrient solution. Once a week, in addition to Plagron nutrients: Power Bud 1ml/L once a week. (Why only once a week with POWER BUD? Plagron confirms that they have achieved better results in hydroponics, so for me, who works with soil, there is no need to use more.) This means that according to Plagron, POWER BUD is more effective or requires different usage in hydroponic systems, while for soil cultivation, a lower or less frequent dose is sufficient. Also, Cane sugar molasses 2ml/L once a week. I don't use royal icing. Cann’Candy is the black cane molasses from the organic fertiliser manufacturer Guano-Diffusion. Black molasses is a by-product of sugar refining, resulting in this thick black liquid with miraculous properties for microbial life. Cann'Candy provides carbohydrates that are useful during the fruiting period, for tastier and more flavourful fruits and vegetables. It is used to increase and optimise the sugar content of the fruits and vegetables in your harvests. Black cane molasses is rich in minerals, trace elements, and vitamins that supply the carbohydrate source necessary for beneficial microorganisms living in your substrates. You can use Cann'Candy molasses with all ranges of organic fertilisation to optimise your living soil and keep it healthy. I'm using Biobizz Bio Up and Bio Down to correct my pH, which I'm now raising to 6.6. My EC is 1.2 today. I wish you all a successful cannabis grow.

Perfect tropical-like weather. No problems to report. Excellent growth. Still rearranging net tent as this bastard stretch a lot. The one that should have the fastest flowering is, on the other hand, terribly late compared to het sisters. But how long does this beast still want to grow? Royal Queen Seeds officially claims Pineapple Kush is better suited indoors than outdoors, for now RQS is wrong.

Today, I watered both plants and checked the drain pH, which came out at 6.1 for both. Blue Dream is thriving—super vibrant, spreading out nicely, and showing great vigor. BCG, on the other hand, has been slightly droopy since transplanting and isn’t opening up as much. I also noticed that BCG holds onto more water compared to Blue Dream, as there was significantly less runoff despite using the same amount of water. The environment remains stable, with a VPD of 1.0. PPFD is set at 450, with the light positioned 35 cm above the canopy. So far, things are progressing well, and I’ll keep a close eye on BCG’s development over the next few days. Topping is planned for the end of week 2, but if BCG doesn’t recover fully, I might wait until the beginning of week 3 before topping her.

Gorilla Glue #4 auto is a big plant,She has a lot of side stalks and is a bit bushy. She has even as well as uneven internodes. All filled in very nice and a was suprised how big of buds there where forming near the end. A little bit of LST did help to get the cannopy more even. EC levels never raised EC 1.4 and i had never a problem with feeding her. She matured very fast and i was amazed by her speed. I harvest this plant at day 73. This plant had a wonderfull smell of pine with lime and huge cola, buds are a bit hazy covered with some nice crystals.

Last week the plants grew looking very healthy although I still have a feeling the low humidity is slowing their growth, by the end of the first week I started raising the EC to make the increasing for this week smoother, run-off EC is substantially increasing so I will start to fertigate them twice a day for this week.

Explosive growth during the first week of flower, also turned the LED from 380 to 500w at a distance of 48cm. Only thing on my mind is when to defoliate, torn between doing it once now day 7 flower and again at day 21 or to wait until day 21 and do it all at once. Left the EC at 1.2 as they look happy.

Some of you may have wondered: Why do I use CO2 at average 950 ppfd μmol/m2/s (moral flow)? The answer is quite simple. Because of lack of space in some regions of my cultivation area, I simply cannot keep the ideal distance to my Sanlight high-performance lamp, due to some height growth of various strains. And so some of the main colas have ppfd values of 1250 μmol/m2/s and even more... So this is how I manage to achieve and compensate for such high radiation levels even with a CO 2 balance. And I have to say, my strategy to avoid various light stress symptoms works just fabulously. In combination with CO 2 implementation, my babies are simply unbeatably insensitive to light. Thats it! Beginning of 3rd week flowering: Again feeding my babies by 36 hours fermented potions of Bio Tabs Kompost Tea PK-Booster (15 g pro Liter) and added: 5ml Orgatrex/Liter 1 Spoon of Bactrex 1 Spoon of Mycotrex 1 Spoon of Mycco-Vital 1 Spoon of Dynomyco A little tip for those who are interested in small modifications that have a big difference or influence - on the result - effect - beauty - health - taste! Before adding microorganisms or beneficial bacteria or Mycorrizae and Trichodermas, please use oxygen-saturated water. On the one hand, unwanted chlorine gases evaporate and the small world of the microbiome becomes even faster and more rewarding in compost tea to sprout. Last but not least for this week, I would like to introduce my reasons, why I prefer growing biologically and sustainably. First of all, it’s something which suits very well in these times/days we are living now. Sustainability is a big need and task for our planet. 🌎 Nature means life. Our home, the air we breathe and everything that surrounds us. Not just today. Hopefully tomorrow as well. Maybe I'm starting to protect our environment on a small scale, but maybe I can also make a big difference at all. If you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change... I thought about what’s the difference, between Mineral Feeding and Super Soil Feeding. It’s very easy. Biologically Growing is a similar process than the natural soil activities out there in the lap of nature’s. So plants has to work and interact with the microorganisms and microbiomic communities in the soil. So the plants will never get lazy like the lazy ones of mineral feeding growers. If you grow biologically, you will feed the soil first and the microorganisms will support every parameter next to your plant conditions. And that will generate an unbelievable spectrum of Terpenes and Trichomes you will never forget. It’s the same comparison, when you daily visit McDonalds and you eat only fast food. How does your body and mind react on this shit for money?!?! May I invite you to think about it… See you next week dear Growmies! Have a nice Weekend and take care… Peace out! Addendum for Day 53: At the moment we unfortunately have another winter onset here in Germany. This means that I am forced to take additional heating measures due to structural facts in order to be able to keep the temperatures constant. After all, just tonight the thermometer climbs again to -1 degree Celsius. In addition, my exhaust air system runs out of my bedroom terrace and I therefore grow winter and summer with the patio door open. Well, sometimes I experience real weather-related challenges. But all in all, no problem... "Where there's a will, there's a way." Addendum to pouring out the fermented PK tea: I always administer half a liter of lukewarm aerated water with 3.5 ml of cannazyme per liter to each plant. This means that the "root machine" is not supplied with supplies unprepared and the nutrient solution can thus also be better distributed in the soil. Since I also work with cloth shoes, I spray them evenly moistened everywhere with water that is also warm before pouring them out from the outside. This has the advantage that the moisture stays where it should: in the pot! ... I did the math today ;-) We are still in week 7 until this Friday. And week 8 starts on Friday! OMG... still so much time yeahh! Today my Fast Buds Sour Jealousy and Sweet Seeds Big Devil and Dark Devil Automatics arrived. I'm looking forward to it. This time Fast Buds next Time Sweet Seeds. Love them too. Very beautiful genetics. Today a review video of the beginning of week 3. At the time of the pictures, I had minor signs of nitrogen excess. (Light peaks first at the crown of the roof and then slightly continuing to the middle section.) I then painstakingly racked my brains as to why this could be. I found that very slight dry spots had formed and therefore the root found small accumulations of nitrogen that caused its problems. But then, when I carefully homogeneously checked the moisture content in the substrate, the problem evaporated again. However, they had not shown any loss of growth rate during this time. Nevertheless, they developed as expected. They Strawnanas had no problem with that. In the end, I always have a hard time killing them. But I guess that's the way things go. We live and die. We come and go. But it's not there yet. ;-) Tomorrow is day 56. Tomorrow’s updating day! Can't wait to see their progress. Have a good time and see you tomorrow… 🏽🕊️ 🏽 ☮️🕊️

Hey guys :-) Unfortunately I had so much to do with the flowers that I hardly had time for the veggie update last week :-) I trained the ladies with LST and topping. I will do that for a while because you still have time until there is space in the bloom tent 😅. They were watered twice a week with 1-1.2 l each time (see table above for nutrients). Tomorrow they will be treated again with nematodes against tripse because I saw some in the vegi room 😡. Otherwise everything was cleaned and checked. Have fun with the update 💚 👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼 You can buy this Nutrients at : https://greenbuzzliquids.com/en/shop/ With the discount code: Made_in_Germany you get a discount of 15% on all products from an order value of 100 euros. 👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼 You can buy this strain at : https://www.amsterdamgenetics.com/product/kosher-tangie-kush/ Water 💧 💧💧 Osmosis water mixed with normal water (24 hours stale that the chlorine evaporates) to 0.2 EC.

I learned a bunch growing these plants and the harvest was well worth the effort it took. 300 watt actual power consumption for lights so I think I'll give this strain another run in the future. The smoke is smooth the smell is potent fruity with a touch of citrus. I dried to 67% then placed buds in a plastic bin for one week burping 4 times a day for 15 minutes then Jared at a humidity of 63% with 62% bóveda packs for one week burping twice a day . After 10 days of I exchanged the 62% packs for 58% packs. Burns smooth and tastes great but I'm going to see what it tastes like in a couple more weeks.

This was an easy grow, and had some amazing results. This is some of my best homegrown to date ❤️ the ladies were easy to manage, no PM, pests or disease. The root balls were enormous, wasn’t much soil to recover. They got heavy in the end from the weight but managed to stay upright for the most part. They were big stretchers , prepare for that, scrog was a good way to go but some of the eager beavers got away from me, which ended in some massive colas. Overall easy to grow, no surprises and you won’t regret the results! 10/10 ❤️👊🤤

The cherry bomb has done well in expanding her growth after topping. I am having a ph problem again, and had to move the tent due to really cold weather. She is starting to show signs of nute burn. I have cleaned out the DWC bucket, and I am flusing her for a few days. I have put this plant through a lot of stress, and she continues to bounce back. I am very pleased with this plants Resilience.

💙 Project Blue Tent – Week 9 Pickle Lemon Haze F1 – Pheno A 🌿 When The Plants Make You Rearrange The Room Hello everyone, and welcome back to another chapter of Project Blue Tent! 💙🌱 And... what a week this has been. If you've been following this project from the beginning, you already know that these four Blue Waffle F1 and Pickle Lemon Haze F1 plants have been growing with an incredible amount of energy. This week, however, they finally made one thing very clear: We were running out of room. 😂 The plants had stretched much more than I wanted. The LEDs were getting too close. The combination of the drainage system, pots, substrate and overall height of the plants was eating into our available vertical space. So... we adapted. And Pickle Lemon Haze Pheno A was right there in the middle of it all. Growing. Stretching. Flowering. And apparently completely unconcerned about the fact that she was becoming too tall for her own room. 😂💙 So this week wasn't about sitting back and watching. This week was about reorganizing the environment around these girls and giving them the space they need to continue the journey. 🌸 Week Nine – The Stretch Was Real Pickle Lemon Haze Pheno A is now approximately 145 cm tall. And that's the plant itself. Add the pot. Add the substrate. Add the drainage system underneath everything. Then look at where the LEDs were sitting... Suddenly those 145 centimetres become a very serious number inside a tent. 😂 I knew we could see significant stretching after seven weeks of vegetation. We discussed it last week. The plants had already gained a considerable amount of height almost immediately after the flip. But honestly? They still managed to surprise me. They didn't just stretch a little. They stretched enough that we had to rethink the physical arrangement of the room. And I think that's one of the most important lessons from this week. Sometimes you don't solve a plant problem by changing the plant. You solve it by changing the room. 💡 Making Room For The Canopy The first major change was moving the carbon filter and extractor outside the tent and onto the top. Previously, that equipment was taking up valuable vertical space inside the grow area. By relocating it, we gained those precious centimetres back. The airflow system now pulls air from inside the tent, through the carbon filter and extractor positioned above, and then exhausts it outside. And that gave us something we desperately needed: room above the plants. Once the equipment was out of the way, we were able to raise the LEDs toward the top of the tent. That immediately gave the canopy more breathing room. And considering some of the tops had already started showing signs of getting too close to the lights... this was very welcome. 🔥 A Few Tops Got Too Close Before we made the changes, we did have a few leaves and tops showing some LED stress. Nothing catastrophic. Nothing that has changed the overall health of the plants. But there were some burned areas where the canopy had simply gotten too close to the light. The important thing is that we caught it. We raised the LEDs. We opened the canopy. We created more space. And now we're watching how the affected areas recover. That's part of running a real grow. You can calculate distances. You can watch environmental numbers. You can plan your canopy. But eventually the plant gives you the final report. And in this case, the report was: "Doctor... the sun is a little too close." 😂☀️ Message received. ✂️ The Big Defoliation Once we had created the additional vertical space, the next job was opening the plants. And we went deep. There was a significant amount of foliage removed from the room. The plants had become incredibly dense, and at this stage that density needed to be managed. The purpose wasn't to remove leaves simply because we had scissors in our hands. The purpose was to reduce unnecessary congestion and expose the flowering structure we've spent so much time building. More visibility. More airflow. More room around the flowering sites. A cleaner canopy. And a better-organized flowering room. Pickle Lemon Haze Pheno A came through the process beautifully. And when you look at her now... you can actually see the architecture again. The branches. The flowering sites. The SCROG. The spacing. Everything is much easier to read. 🌿 What Defoliation Is — And What It Isn't I think this is worth explaining because we're showing quite a significant defoliation in the photographs. Defoliation isn't about removing healthy leaves because healthy leaves are somehow undesirable. They're not. The leaves are doing important work. What we're managing here is excessive foliage and congestion inside a very dense flowering room. The plants had built an enormous amount of vegetative material. Now we're transitioning toward a flowering structure. So we're selectively reducing what we don't need in order to make the remaining architecture more functional. And I'm not expecting the defoliation to magically create flowers. That's not the point. The point is simply to give the flowers and remaining canopy a better environment in which to develop. Now we've done the work. And now... we leave the plants to respond. 🕸️ The Second SCROG Is In The other major addition this week is the second SCROG net. The first SCROG helped us build and distribute the canopy during vegetation. It did its job beautifully. But these girls have become much taller than originally anticipated. And now we're thinking about the future weight of those flowering branches. So the second net is primarily about support. We're not trying to turn these plants back into a vegetative canopy. We're preparing the structure to carry what is coming. Because looking at these plants now... I have a feeling some of those branches are going to appreciate having something underneath them later. 😂 It's always better to have support ready before you need it. 🌬️ Two Fans – Creating The Vortex We also added another Zamnesia clip fan, this time underneath the canopy. We now have one fan working higher in the room and another operating lower down. The goal is to create more complete circulation through the growing space. The lower fan pushes air through the lower portion of the plants while the upper airflow continues moving air through the canopy. Together, this creates a kind of vortex-style circulation rather than having air movement concentrated in only one area. That's particularly valuable now. We've opened the canopy. We've created more space. Now we want air moving through that space. Not just across the top. Not just underneath. Through the room. And looking at the tent now... I really like what we've created. The room feels much more organized. ✂️ Clean Tools – Always Another little detail I want to mention is the Zamnesia curved scissors. I really like these. For most of the larger defoliation work, I actually use my fingers. If a leaf can be gently removed without cutting anything else, that's often my preferred method. But there are always those little leaves, delicate areas and awkward positions where scissors are simply the better tool. And whenever we're using scissors around the plants: Clean. Always. Even if they're brand new, I still like to clean them. It's such a small part of the process, but it's one of those habits that makes sense. Clean hands. Clean tools. Gentle work. And only remove what needs removing. 🌸 And Then There's That Broken Branch... Now we need to talk about last week's little accident. 😂 Unfortunately... the branch we broke while training last week did not survive. We tried. We supported it. We gave it time. But sometimes... a branch is simply done. And that's okay. It happens. I'm certainly not going to pretend otherwise. The important thing is what happened to the rest of the plant. And the answer is: Absolutely nothing. She carried on. The plant didn't suddenly collapse. She didn't stop developing. She didn't lose her momentum. She didn't let one branch decide the story of the entire plant. She simply continued flowering. And honestly? That's one of the most reassuring things about growing. Sometimes you make a mistake. Sometimes the plant doesn't recover from that particular injury. But that doesn't mean the whole plant is affected. One branch didn't define Plant A. The rest of her is doing beautifully. 💙 Pickle Lemon Haze A – Still Standing Strong That's actually something I really like about this girl. She's resilient. She has been through topping. Training. SCROG. Defoliation. The flowering transition. A broken branch. And now another deep defoliation. And she's still there looking healthy and vigorous. If anything, the whole plant seems to have taken the attitude of: "Fine. That branch is gone. I'll grow the rest." 😂🌱 And that's exactly what she's doing. The canopy remains strong. The flowering sites continue developing. The remaining branches are healthy. And the loss of that one branch hasn't changed the overall performance we're seeing. So... lesson learned. We move on. 🌿 The Blue Tent Had To Grow Up There's something funny about this week. Last week, I was talking about managing the stretch. This week, the plants basically said: "You'd better manage it." 😂 So we did. The room has changed considerably. The carbon filter and extractor are now outside the tent. The LEDs have been raised. The canopy has been opened deeply. The second SCROG has been installed. The second fan is circulating air below the canopy. And suddenly... we have room again. The plants are still tall. They aren't magically becoming shorter. But they now have somewhere to continue growing and flowering without immediately running into the ceiling. That's a much better situation. 🌸 From Vegetative Structure To Flowering Structure And this is the really exciting part. All that vegetative growth wasn't wasted. The seven weeks of vegetation gave us: Strong branches. A large root system. A filled SCROG. A broad canopy. A lot of flowering sites. Now we're transitioning from building the plant to watching that structure turn into flowers. That's the part I really want to watch now. We've done the major structural work. We've made the room fit the plants. We've made the canopy more manageable. Now... let them flower. 💧 Nutrition – They're Hungry Girls The plants are also telling us something very clearly through their appetite. They're hungry. So the flowering recipe has moved slightly upward. We're now running: Plagron Hydro A — 2.2 ml/L Plagron Hydro B — 2.2 ml/L Plagron Hydro Roots — 1 ml/L Plagron Power Buds — 1 ml/L pH adjustment as required This has brought the EC up to approximately 2.49 mS/cm. It's still a measured change. We're not suddenly throwing everything at the plants. We're responding to what they're showing us. They're growing rapidly. They're flowering. They're drinking. And the foliage continues looking healthy. So we move forward carefully and watch the response. 🌡️ Blue Tent – Current Conditions The room remains stable despite all the physical changes we've made. Current recorded conditions are approximately: 🌸 Flowering: Week 9 📏 Height: approximately 145 cm 💡 Light schedule: 12/12 ☀️ Day temperature: 27°C 🌙 Night temperature: 27°C 💧 Relative humidity: 67% ⚗️ pH: 6.01 ⚡ EC: approximately 2.49 mS/cm 🌡️ Solution temperature: 25.3°C 🌱 Substrate temperature: 24°C 💨 CO₂: approximately 666 ppm ? Pot size: 8 L 💦 Watering: approximately 1.6 L per plant / 24h And I think the consistency is important. We've changed the physical arrangement of the room quite significantly. But we're keeping the growing environment as stable as possible. The plants already have enough to adapt to. They don't need us changing everything at once. 🌬️ Airflow Is Now A Major Part Of The Equation With the plants this large and the flowering structure developing, airflow becomes increasingly important. The deep defoliation has opened the plants. The second fan gives us additional movement below the canopy. The upper fan continues moving air higher in the room. And moving the extraction equipment outside the tent gave us more usable space. Everything is now working together. That's what I want. Not one single "magic" piece of equipment. A room where the different systems complement each other. Light. Air. Irrigation. Nutrition. Structure. And observation. 🕸️ Supporting The Future Flowers The second SCROG is probably going to become more important with every passing week. Right now, it might look like another piece of equipment in the tent. Later... it could be the thing keeping those branches where we want them. The plants have already developed a substantial framework. Now the flowers are going to start adding weight. So I'm very happy we installed the second net now rather than waiting until the branches were already carrying heavy flowers. We're preparing the room for the next stage. And that's really what this week has been about. Preparation. 🔬 Same Room – Different Strain – Same Incredible Response There's something fascinating about Pickle Lemon Haze Pheno A growing alongside the Blue Waffle F1 girls. They're different genetics. Different strains. Different individual diaries. And yet this week... they look remarkably similar. Same incredible stretch. Same environmental conditions. Same physical limitations. Same need to reorganize the room. Same deep defoliation. Same second SCROG. Same additional airflow. Same nutrition increase. And this is actually another beautiful part of the experiment. We're watching genetics express themselves under a shared environment. Sometimes the differences are obvious. Sometimes... the plants simply agree with each other. 😂💙 This week was one of those moments. 🌿 The Canopy After Everything Looking at the room now, I have to say... I love it. The plants are tall. Yes. They are probably taller than I originally wanted. 😂 But they're healthy. They're vigorous. They're flowering. And after the cleanup, the architecture is much easier to see. There is something very satisfying about looking at the room after a major intervention and realizing: Okay. This works. We made the space. We created the support. We improved the circulation. We raised the lights. And now the plants have somewhere to finish. That's a good feeling. 🔭 Looking Ahead – Now We Let Them Work This is where the next phase becomes much simpler. We've done enough. Now I want to watch. I want to see the stretch finally slow down. I want to watch the flowering sites develop. I want to see how the plants respond to the deep defoliation. I want to see how the remaining branches use the space. I want to see how the second SCROG supports them. And of course... I want to see what Pickle Lemon Haze Pheno A ultimately becomes. The broken branch is gone. That's part of the story now. But the plant is absolutely fine. And that's the important part. She's still here. Still flowering. Still growing. Still shining. 💙 Final Thoughts – One Branch Less, Not One Bit Less Determined What a week. 😂💙 Pickle Lemon Haze Pheno A has officially joined the "we need to rearrange the entire room because the plants got too tall" club. At approximately 145 cm, she's certainly not small. And once you add the pot, substrate and drainage system underneath her, we were getting dangerously close to our vertical limits. So we adapted. The carbon filter and extractor moved outside the tent. The LEDs went higher. The canopy received a deep cleanup. A second SCROG was installed. A second fan was added underneath the canopy. The airflow was improved. The room was reorganized. And those few LED-stressed areas were addressed before they could become something more serious. And then... there's that branch. Unfortunately, the broken branch from last week didn't make it. It happens. I'm disappointed, of course. But I'm not worried. Because look at her. She's still growing. Still flowering. Still healthy. Still vigorous. And the rest of the plant hasn't missed a beat. Sometimes growing teaches you humility. You can train carefully. You can plan. You can prepare. And occasionally... snap. 😂 You learn. You move forward. And you keep growing. That's exactly what Plant A has done. And honestly, that's what I love about documenting a real grow. Not everything is perfect. Not every branch survives. Not every plant stays the height you planned. Not every week goes exactly according to the original design. But that's the reality of cultivation. You observe. You adapt. You make the room work for the plants. And then you let them do what they know how to do. Grow. Flower. Finish. Pickle Lemon Haze Pheno A is still doing all three beautifully. And now that we've finally given these girls a little more breathing room... I'm very curious to see what happens next. The room is ready. The lights are higher. The airflow is moving. The second SCROG is in place. The nutrition is supporting them. And the flowering journey is really getting started now. So let's forget about that one lost branch. It had its chapter. The rest of the plant has plenty more story left to tell. 💙🌸🌿 🙏 A Huge Thank You A huge thank you once again to Zamnesia for making Project Blue Tent possible and for giving us the opportunity to explore these beautiful Pickle Lemon Haze F1 genetics individually. Thank you to Plagron for the Hydro nutrient line supporting these incredibly hungry and vigorous plants as they move deeper into flowering. A massive thank you to Zamnesia for the Phytonaut LED lighting, the curved scissors and the clip fans that continue playing such important roles inside this project. Thank you to Mars Hydro for the automatic drip irrigation and drainage system that continues keeping these plants consistently supplied despite how quickly they're growing. And thank you to GrowDiaries for giving growers a place to document these journeys, share the successes, share the mistakes, and hopefully learn something from both. And finally... thank you to everyone following Project Blue Tent. This week was definitely one for the books. The plants stretched. We ran out of vertical space. We moved equipment. We raised the lights. We opened the canopy. We installed another SCROG. We added another fan. We lost one branch. And somehow... we ended the week looking at a room that I think looks absolutely beautiful. 😂💙 That's growing. You don't always get the week you planned. Sometimes you get the week the plants give you. And this week, these girls gave us plenty. Pickle Lemon Haze Pheno A is still standing. Still healthy. Still flowering. Still vigorous. And now... she has a little more room to finish the journey. Let's see what this beautiful girl does with it. Until next week... One branch may be gone, but Plant A is still here, still shining, and still ready to finish strong. 💙🌸🌿 Growers Love, happy growing, and take care everyone! 🌱💙
