We just wrapped up an absolute scorcher of a week! The summer heat went into overdrive, with outdoor temperatures climbing up to a blazing 35–38°C. It’s been a massive test of endurance for the girls with quite a bit of heat stress, but I have to say, they are proving just how tough these genetics really are. The Feeding & Watering Marathon: 💧 With the sun beating down like a furnace, the plants have turned into absolute water-guzzling monsters. They’ve been drinking between 3 to 4 liters of water per day just to stay cool! Because they are cycling through water and processing energy so rapidly, I’ve been feeding them every 2 to 3 days to keep their nutrient levels stable—sticking to their respective organic and mineral menus. Plant Health & Defoliation: 🍂 Under this kind of intense heat, the ladies did shed a few of their older, lower leaves, which have dried up and fallen off. Honestly, it’s not surprising at all given the extreme weather, and it’s just their natural way of focusing energy on the canopy and bud production. Despite the sweat-inducing conditions, all four plants are still looking great and holding their ground beautifully. Growth & Structure: 📏 It looks like we have officially reached our final heights! There was no change in vertical growth this week, which confirms the stretch is completely done. Lemon Cherry Cookies: Sitting pretty at her final 70cm. The Rest (Amnesia Haze, Banana Purple Punch, Bruce Banner): Parked comfortably around the 50cm mark. No training or interventions on my part this week—at this point, it’s just about keeping them well-hydrated, well-fed, and letting them battle through the peak of summer while they stack up those flowers. Let's hope the temperatures drop just a tiny bit so they can catch their breath!

So i went for quick vacation/holidays to Georgia (love it!) and asked a friend of mine that lives nearby to take care of me babies 😊 so he watered the girls every 3,5 days on average (4 times during 14 days) with just as little as 100 ml per plant. Now I come back yesterday and I’m very happy with my girls - they look super thriving and eager to grow! I’m surprised as so very different they look from my previous grow in same setup except hydroponics - this time in soil in same day of vegetation they look much more dense and just thriving! Wow soil makes huge difference indoors. I saw 2 top leaves (on pictures & on video) with light nutrients burn (no idea why - I just added root juice). Also I know for sure that my light timer has broken - there were days when light was 24h on...I don’t know what might that cause... but now is all good - light timer fixed. I think that I will just keep feeding them water. What do you think guys? Would love some advice! Oh and pictures and videos are from yesterday. Before topping and after topping. On 2 girls I have used new topping technique. Thanks!

Day8: First day of the new week. I assume still pretty much focusing on roots, as the top didn't really do much today. Day9: Nothing special. But she's growing Day10: Still roots, it seems. Very little happening up top. Day11: Effort being put into growing the top leaves. They increased in size. I assume that the next node will start tomorrow - kicking off the switch into Veg. Day12: Next node already showing :D Day13: I put in a humidifier and changed the cycle of the extractor to keep more moisture in the growbox. My humidity was way too low. Day14: This time the humidity was too high. It was sitting at around 95% when the lights went on.

D16 : So far, the weather is really cloudy for the month of June and the plants stretched due to the lack of light. Since this is their final pots I decided to add a bit of soil around the stem to stabilize them. So far, it works pretty well. To test their stability, I've tried to blow on the plant before and after and the difference was clear! The weather was bad this week but knowing that, the plants grew pretty well. Parameters : ------------------------------------------- Humidity range : 60-70% Temperature range : 18-21°C SUN Average : cloudy Plants heights at the end of the week : ------------------------------------------- Apricot : 12 cm Gorilla Punch : 10 cm Orange Sherbet : 10 cm Pound Cake : 12.5 cm

1. Woche Blüte Gestern hat sie Grow, Bloom und Bloom booster bekommen nach Plan. Sieht heute auch ganz gut aus, Härchen sind über Nacht sprunghaft mehr und dicker geworden 💪. Der Geruch nimmt auch zu, momentan erinnert es an Salted Caramell 😅 38. Tag Hab jetz auch auf 16h Licht gewechselt, also quasi Tageslicht aber dank trübem Wetter noch mit Lampe unterstützt. Die Lampe geht kurz nach Sonnenaufgang an und mit dem Sonnenuntergang wieder aus.

It's a quite jungle, but I like it wild. New tent is postponed to next week, I really need it though, those plants would appreciate getting their artificial sun dose, instead tryingto push through the roof. Tried another way to take photos, but until we get more room, they're gonna be whatever.. Light schedule is still 13 hours, I should probably change it to 12 soon, though target is still one month and then reduction to 12 h. Nothing got topped this time, maybe I should've, but the new tent will bring some workaround room. I'm still trying to understand the plant behavior and their limits.

Neue Woche Leute 3.5 Luftfeuchtigkeit heute leider zu hoch gegangen wegen außen Einflüsse (Fenster auf). Abluft Anlage angeschmissen und alles geregelt. Auf den Fotos sieht man leicht ein gewölbte Blätter. Mache mir da aber keine Sorgen.

Hello colleagues! This week I added a lamp with far-red diodes, returned the blue ones, and now I have even brighter colors in my box. 😎 Thin branches begin to bend and break - I tie them up. I'm reaching the finish line. Thank you for stopping by, and be healthy! 🙏 To be continued... 😶

Chopped Wednesday the 11th. Trimmed and began curing the 21st. 4oz of super dense sticky bud. 1 pound of high grade trim and 2 oz of low grade trim. This plant was truly strange the places it chose to grow Trichomes. Stay tuned because I will be making hash with the high grade trim. Also will be uploading smoke score in two weeks Thank you to anyone who followed and god bless!

28.04.2024 First harvest in this run! Tropicana Cookies No1 is a winner.) First Tropicana Cookies is harvested on 89 day from seed. Total 55 days off flowering. Fast flowering indeed as fast in vegetative stage. Cut this girl in branches and hang upside-down in smaller tent for drying Set RH @ 55% , temperatures not able to control so they will be something around 20-21 in drying tent Second Tropicana will be chopped within a couple off days In this cultivation, I used commercial LED lighting for the first time—the HLG Scorpion Diablo 650w, a beasts of light. It helped the plants beneath it develop exceptionally hard heads without heat-induced stress. The light spectrum is excellent, and the plants under it appear much healthier than those under my old light. They also finished faster, if that has any relevance. After numerous failures and difficulties with the timers I used for pumps and electromagnetic valves, which resulted in interrupted irrigation on several occasions, I believe I’ve resolved those issues. The TrolMaster programmable devices work perfectly in recycling mode. The ability to adjust times in seconds is precisely what I needed! The TCS1 Tent-X brain, equipped with an excellent sensor for temperature, humidity, and light detection, is remarkably accurate with rapid value measurement response—faster than the AC Infinity 69PRO controller. My favorite piece of equipment is the AMP3 sensor with pH and EC probes. It performs exceptionally well—precise and accurate. Integrating it into the system is as easy as a breeze. All equipment and sensors can be added fast to the entire system. Additionally, the humidity control I use with the Corroventa K3HP air dehumidifier works like a charm! I am extremely satisfied with TrolMaster equipment and highly recommend it to anyone in need of a precise and reliable system for their grow tent, especially those using hydro or aeroponic cultivation methods. 01.05.2024 Checking TC in drying tent, perfect conditions, i will like more to have cooler temps but ... Six days already drying, think a 4-5 more and trimming. Tomorrow or day after is harvest off second TC and probably one Purple Lemonade... 12.05.2024 First Tropicana Cookies is ready for trimming and curing. Hard and dance buds. Try some small bud, very strong stuff! From first early girl i got 128g net weight Second Tropicana Cookies is on trimming session within couple of days.. 15.05.2024 Second Tropicana Cookies get trimmed. Amazing plant in term of bud density and aromas that it have. Hard and high odor buds. From second girl i got 131g net weight Total dry bud mass from two plants is 260g, Total power consumption for this two girls is around 180w. Total power used in whole tent is 720w at its maximum peak for 8 plants. Next week after leaving it in Grow Bags , first smoke review, can wait ! Overall growing Tropicana Cookies was easy grow with lot of fun. This girls are resilient to everything, from bad weather and less than perfect climate conditions. They except all. Growing two plants i can say that they grow very uniformly, finishing at same height and overall same density, size and shape. Almost like from a cutting. That is what i really like ! In future i gonna to grow this lady's at least one more time but with difference, i will grow them as only strain in same tent. Combining them with Purple Lemonade and Wedding Cheesecake was little bit challenging, i feel that either off three cultivars didn't show the best off them. Main deference was plant height and nutrient requirements. Highly recommended strain for everyone !

Just potted... Plants are a bit in shock. curled down leaves on some. After Day 1 new growth is praying. Removed Damaged Leaves 😀 9/18/2020 had a problem that looked like Cal-Mag issues & overwatering... Was using the tank labels for water marks to tell how much water was in the tank. Discovered that the marks from the factory are wrong. Measured back in exactly 100 Gallons of water and re-nuted the tank. It didn't solve my issue. So I changed the water flood schedule to see if I was overwatering or underwatering. no response from the plants except it was getting worse. After trying things for two days, I "Phoned a friend"... and they suggested to turn the lights down to 25%. BAM! after 20 min or so, there was a positive response and lifting of the leaves... Moral of the story is to start your clones at a lower light setting and gradually bring them up over time. Pics included...
