Fruity Durban is een Sativa-dominante kruising (waarschijnlijk Durban Poison-achtig met fruitige twist), dus rek/stretch is significant. Pure Durban kan 2-3 m hoog worden buiten, indoors met korte veg vaak 1-2 m zonder training. Met jouw 180 cm tent (incl. lamp + hangruimte) is dat krap — je moet trainen om alles erin te houden.
Kweekopstelling update
Tent hoogte: 180 cm (typisch ~30-40 cm voor lamp + reflector + ophanging, dus effectieve plantruimte ~140-150 cm max).
Lamp: Mars Hydro TS600 (100W echt, prima voor 60x60 in bloom, maar dimbaar gebruiken in veg/zaailing).
Medium: gewone potgrond (aangenomen light-mix of universele potgrond zonder veel voeding; pas op overvoeding).
Potten: start 0.2L → doorschalen naar 7-11L (of max 15L als je ze klein houdt).
Verwacht: stretch ×2-2.5x na flip, dus training essentieel.
Week-voor-week verwacht verloop (aangepast aan 180 cm limiet)
Week 1 – Zaailing (nu gestart, ~23 maart 2026)
Alle 5 gekiemd en staan strak (Serious Seeds kiemt top).
Hoogte: 5-10 cm eind week.
Lamp dimmen (30-50%), 50-60 cm afstand, 18/6 licht.
RV 65-75%, temp 24-27°C. Alleen water/spray, geen voeding nog.
Week 2-3 – Veg vroege fase
Groei accelereert: Sativa-stijl, lange internodiën.
Hoogte eind week 3: 20-40 cm als je niet toppt.
Doorschalen: rond dag 10-14 naar 3-5L potten, later (week 4) naar 7-11L finale potten.
Beginnen met lichte voeding (EC 0.6-0.9, grow-formule).
Tip nu al: LST starten (takken buigen) of top/fim rond 4-5e node (dag 18-25) om breedte te forceren i.p.v. hoogte.
Week 4 – Late veg / pre-flip
Hoogte zonder training: makkelijk 50-80 cm.
Cruciaal: trainen! SCROG-netje op ~40-50 cm hoogte, of meerdere LST-ties + topping 1-2x. Doel: canopy plat en gelijkmatig onder de lamp houden. Zonder training ga je tegen de 180 cm aan botsen in stretch.
Lamp 70-80% power, 35-45 cm afstand.
Week 5 – Flip naar 12/12
Eerste pistils binnen 4-7 dagen.
Stretch start: ×2 tot ×2.5 (typisch voor Durban-achtigen).
Getrainde planten: van 40-60 cm veg → 80-140 cm eind stretch.
Ongetraind: 100-180+ cm → problemen (lamp verbranden of top afknippen).
Lamp 100%, 25-35 cm boven canopy (verhoog tent als kan, of hang lager maar pas op hitte).
Week 6-9 – Bloei stretch & budontwikkeling
Stretch klaar rond week 3 bloei (dag 50-60 totaal).
Toppen worden harsig, fruitig (citrus/anijs/zoet).
Geur week 7-8 sterk → filter verplicht.
Voeding: bloom EC 1.0-1.6, PK boost vanaf week 6. Potgrond houdt vocht lang vast → niet overwateren (laat droger tussen gietbeurten).
Hoogte eind stretch: met goede training 100-140 cm (past net in 180 cm tent met ~30-40 cm lamp-ruimte).
Week 10-12 – Rijping & finish
Bloei-tijd: ~9-10 weken (Durban-lijn vaak 8-10 wk).
Trichomen: cloudy met 10-30% amber rond dag 63-77.
Flush laatste 10-14 dagen.
Bladeren vergelen natuurlijk.
Eindhoogte met training: 110-150 cm (veilig onder lamp).
Oogst verwacht (medio/eind mei 2026)
Opbrengst: met TS600 in 60x60 → realistisch 80-150 gram droog totaal (0.8-1.5 g/W).
Goede training + gelijkmatige canopy → dichter bij 120-150 g.
Slechte spreiding → 80-100 g.
Kwaliteit: sticky hars, up/high energiek, fruitig-Durban profiel.
Belangrijke tips voor 180 cm tent
Training is niet optioneel: LST + topping of SCROG-netje vanaf veg. Houd canopy op max 100-120 cm hoogte.
Potgrond: droogt langzaam → giet spaarzaam, check gewicht pot.
Ventilatie: TS600 geeft weinig hitte, maar trek sterke fan voor luchtcirculatie (Sativa's haten stilstaande lucht).
Als je merkt dat ze te hard rekken: supercropping toepassen of lamp hoger hangen (maar PAR daalt dan).

Strating the germination process for my latest grow. Im growing white Bhutanese by Mandala Seeds. ■ {{ White Bhutanese: 80% Sativa 20% Indica ~ 12 to 14% THC & CBD (Earthy, Fruity, Lemon, Mint, Nutty, Sour, Spicy / Herbal, Sweet)}} Really into cultivating a highly therapeutic strain, which begins with finding something close to what you want to achieve. Fingers crossed 🤞
September 23. In the rock wool she goes.
September 30 Patricia is officially transplanted to her resevoir.

The plants have taken to their Earthboxes, especially #1 with the BuildASoil Light. The Earthbox with my Coots mix was the runt, plus I damaged the roots during transplant so it has an uphill battle, but I wouldn't count it out yet. It was looking droopy and with slight discoloration, but after a drench of Kashi Blend Tea (1/3 cup Kashi Blend, 1 teaspoon blackstrap molasses in 1 gallon of water for 24 hours) it perked right up.
As for preventative pest management, I've kept doing foliar applications every 4 days of EM-FPE -> EM-1, next week I will incorporate the just-finished EM-5. I made a JADAM wetting agent (JWA) but I have realized even local bottled water is too mineral-heavy for it, so I will need to find a source of distilled water if I want to use it in my foliar regime.
Next week I will begin doing LST to get some more tops going. At some point I plan to add a trellis, I have been busy with work but I will find the time to set up something, preferably a trellis that can move with the Earthbox to facilitate maintenance and not have them fixed in place for the entire training and flowering cycles.

Hello boys, how was the week?
27-APR-22 - First day of flowering, I've made a defoliation before switching the lights to 12-12
28-APR-22 - Watering no nuts pH 6.5
29-APR-22 - Nothing but manual LST
30-APR-22 - Made an AACT with Sheep dung, Biobizz (Fish-mix, Grow, Alg-a-mic and Top-max), 1 tbsp Humic acids, and ophicina organica alquifish mel to lower the pH after bubbling...
01-MAY-22 - Watering with the AACT ph'd 6.8
02-MAY-22 - Nothing but manual LST

Week 8 and she is really starting to smell up the box. Getting a serious citrus pine smell. I picked up some free Sea Green (as long as I paid the shipping which was 5 bucks. Definitely worth it!!) from Primordial Solutions and used it for the first time. Hats off to the Primordial crew I would definitely recommend Sea Green to anyone because in the two feedings I’ve used it my girl has love love loved it. The leaves prayed up way more than usual. Her overall health seemed to improve and I honestly didn’t think her fine ass could get any better 😂😂, I was wrong!! She seems very happy and healthy so not much to report other than the NUGS LOOK TASTY!!
Last day of the week and she developed a ton of orange pistols overnight.

Englischversion below
Deutsch:
Tag 49 Veg:
Alle Pflanzen haben das Ziel erreicht - den Rand des Topfes. Eine starke Entlaubung und Entfernung der kleineren Triebe stand an. Dadurch soll verhindert werden, dass die Pflanzen viel Energie in die Biomasse stecken, die später ohnehin beschnitten wird.
Ein Pulse-Zero und ein Bodenfeuchtigkeitsmesser ergänzen nun das Setup. Im angesicht der kommenden Blüte wird der VPD in Richtung 1-1,2 gepusht ( hauptsächlich durch ein geringeren RLF%).
Sobald sich die Ladies vom Stress erholt haben, wird die Blüte eingeleitet - im Streach wird dann wahrscheinlich das SCROG-Netz eingespannt.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Day 49 – Vegetative Phase:
All plants have reached the target — the edge of the pot. A heavy defoliation and removal of smaller shoots were carried out. This is intended to prevent the plants from investing excessive energy into biomass that would later be pruned anyway.
A Pulse Zero and a soil moisture sensor have now been added to the setup. In preparation for the upcoming flowering phase, VPD is being increased toward a range of 1.0–1.2, primarily by lowering relative humidity.
Once the plants have recovered from the stress, flowering will be initiated. During the stretch phase, a SCROG net will likely be installed.

Week 16 - Flo 7 weeks
A successful flowering: all plants are almost ready. May be 10 days before the Final Cut.
Decisive and exiting week: buds are pumping, becoming incredibly dense, hard, thick and resinous. The smell intensity is really problematic even with the carbon filter.
Just a few yellow leaves on the base: no signs of deficiencies, just normal process.
It’s time to start flushing
The EnFun (2x120W) did the job. Good efficiency for little space.

I would like to title week 10 the tragedy 😂
There was an issue with the drip irrigation I set up when leaving for 5 days for Christmas. The plants received no water for the duration of my vacation. After watering (and praying) last night, they’ve perked back up significantly. Roots still looking good. Reduced light intensity, defoliated the dead stuff, and going to start babying them a bit before a much needed transplant.

Took of the humidity dome sooner than I wanted. I swear it makes em stretch.
Also turned up the light! Got get the RH up a bit but these babies are up outta the ground and doing their thing!
This will be the first grow that I try to water according to the plant and NOT a schedule, therefore prob wont be watering much this week!
__________________________________________
Not much to see, but not much to worry about! Gave em a little water just to get the top layer wet. Being much more patient and calm with these seedlings. 2 of them did stretch more than my liking but it shouldn't matter at all soon.
