Woche 14 – Aus drei werden eins 🍑🌿🌿🌿 Diese Woche zeigt mir die Apricot endgültig, warum dieses Outdoor-Projekt für mich etwas Besonderes geworden ist. Was einmal als drei einzelne Apricot Autos begonnen hat, sieht inzwischen aus wie eine einzige große Pflanze. Durch das Training und die Verteilung der Triebe haben sich die drei Pflanzen zu einem gemeinsamen Blütendach entwickelt. Überall ragen Tops aus der Struktur heraus – und inzwischen geht es nicht mehr darum, neue Fläche aufzubauen. Jetzt geht es um Blütenmasse. Und genau da hat sich seit dem letzten Update einiges getan. Die einzelnen Buds beginnen sichtbar anzuschwellen und die Blütenstände werden zunehmend kompakter. Besonders schön finde ich, dass sich die Entwicklung nicht nur auf die obersten Colas beschränkt. Auch weiter unten sitzen zahlreiche gut entwickelte Blüten, wodurch die gesamte Pflanze inzwischen regelrecht mit Budsites übersät ist. ❄️ Der Frost kommt Die Nahaufnahmen zeigen momentan wohl am besten, wohin die Reise geht. Die Trichomproduktion nimmt richtig Fahrt auf. Nicht nur die Blüten selbst, sondern auch die umliegenden Sugar Leaves sind inzwischen mit einer deutlich sichtbaren Harzschicht bedeckt. In der direkten Sonne funkeln manche Tops fast, als hätte jemand feinen Zucker darüber gestreut. Gleichzeitig beginnen einige Blüten, erste dunklere und leicht violett-rötliche Farbtöne zu entwickeln. Zwischen dem kräftigen Grün und der hellen Harzschicht entstehen dadurch immer mehr kleine Farbkontraste. Und genau auf diese Phase habe ich gewartet. 😍 🌿 Drei Pflanzen – drei Charaktere Obwohl die drei Apricots gemeinsam wie eine einzige Pflanze wirken, zeigen sich bei genauerem Hinsehen durchaus Unterschiede. Einige Triebe bauen etwas länglichere, stärker gestapelte Blüten auf, während andere Tops kompakter und gedrungener erscheinen. Auch bei der Farbentwicklung und Harzmenge zeigen sich erste kleine Unterschiede. Gerade das macht dieses Projekt für mich so spannend: Drei Samen derselben Genetik – gemeinsam trainiert, unter denselben Bedingungen – und trotzdem darf jede Pflanze ihren eigenen Charakter zeigen. ☀️ Outdoor bedeutet echte Natur Kein perfekt kontrollierter Indoor-Raum. Keine konstanten Bedingungen. Sonne, Wolken, Wind, Temperaturschwankungen und alles, was ein echter Sommer mit sich bringt. Und trotzdem stehen die drei Apricots hier mit einer erstaunlich vitalen Struktur. Die Blätter arbeiten weiterhin kräftig, die Äste tragen inzwischen eine ordentliche Menge Blüten und die Pflanzen konzentrieren ihre Energie sichtbar immer stärker auf die Budproduktion. Genau das liebe ich an Outdoor-Grows: Man kontrolliert nicht alles. Man arbeitet mit der Natur. 🍑 Jetzt beginnt meine Lieblingsphase Von hier an wird jeder Tag interessanter. Die Grundstruktur der Blüten steht. Jetzt dürfen die Kelche weiter anschwellen, die Buds dichter werden, die Harzschicht dicker werden und die Farben langsam ihren Weg durch die Pflanze finden. Wenn die Apricots in diesem Tempo weitermachen, könnten die letzten Wochen optisch noch einmal richtig spektakulär werden. Drei Pflanzen. Ein gemeinsames Blütendach. Unzählige Budsites. Und langsam verwandelt sich das ganze Ding in eine frostige Apricot-Wand. 🍑❄️ To be continued… 💚 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- WEEK 14 – THREE BECOME ONE 🍑🌿🌿🌿 This week the Apricots are finally showing me why this outdoor project has become something very special. What started as three individual Apricot Autos now almost looks like one single massive plant. Through training and spreading the branches, all three plants have grown together into one shared flowering canopy. Tops are appearing everywhere – and at this point the mission is no longer about creating more structure. Now it's all about building flowers. And there has been a noticeable change since the previous update. The individual buds are starting to swell and the flower clusters are becoming increasingly substantial. What I particularly like is that this development isn't limited to the highest colas. There are well-developed flowers deeper throughout the structure as well, making the whole canopy look increasingly packed with bud sites. ❄️ The frost is coming The close-ups probably tell the story better than anything else this week. Trichome production is really starting to accelerate. It's no longer restricted to the flowers themselves – the surrounding sugar leaves are becoming visibly coated as well. Under direct sunlight some of these tops already sparkle like they've been dusted with sugar. At the same time, several flowers are beginning to show subtle darker, reddish and purple tones, creating beautiful little contrasts between the green foliage and the increasingly bright resin coverage. This is exactly the stage I've been waiting for. 😍 🌿 Three plants – three personalities Although the three Apricots now appear to be one giant plant from a distance, looking closer reveals subtle differences between them. Some branches are developing slightly longer, stacked flowers, while others are producing more compact-looking tops. Small differences are also starting to appear in coloration and resin production. And that's one of my favorite parts of this project: Three seeds from the same genetics, trained together and grown under the same conditions – yet each plant is still allowed to show its own personality. ☀️ This is real outdoor growing There is no perfectly controlled indoor environment here. Sunshine, clouds, wind, temperature swings and everything else a real summer decides to throw at them. Yet these three Apricots continue to maintain an impressive structure. The foliage is still working hard, the branches are now carrying a serious number of flowers and the plants are visibly directing more and more of their energy toward bud production. That's exactly what I love about outdoor growing. You don't control everything. You work together with nature. 🍑 My favorite part is beginning From this point forward, every day becomes more interesting. The foundation of the flowers is established. Now it's time for the calyxes to swell, the buds to become denser, the resin layer to get heavier and the colors to slowly work their way through the flowers. If these Apricots continue developing at this pace, the final part of this journey could become something really beautiful. Three plants. One shared canopy. Bud sites everywhere. And slowly the whole thing is turning into a frosty wall of Apricot. 🍑❄️ To be continued… 💚

Aloha Freunde, bei meinen Damen wird es immer gemütlicher. Die Mulchschicht sollte von Anfang an drauf aber besser spät als nie. In der Erde von Sonnenerde ist schon viel los aber Ich gieße hin und wieder mit effektiven Mikroorganismen von Tria Terra um das Bodenleben schneller in Schwung zu bekommen. Trauermücken gehören zur gesunden Erde irgendwie dazu aber in so einem Setup wollen wir die kleinen Mücken nicht haben. Die Lösung: Gleich von Anfang an mit SF-Nematoden gießen. Die gibt es im Baumarkt auf Bestellung oder gleich Online suchen. Liebe

Semana 5 (5Nov-11Nov)

Another week and a half later I believe. The tentacles have started to take more of the baby nuggetito form. Slowly you can see the flowers starting to make little bud-nuggets. Same 12/12 lights, 3 day water cycle, LST, and removing any extremely small looking buds on the lowest nodes branches. The fan leaf stems have gone a little purple in colour, and the trichomes are starting to show up (Wazzzaaaaa). I presume the purple because of the drop in general temperature because of winter.

More training with clips.

Everything is going well for the ladies so far. Really can't complain. Plenty of stretching for the durban kinda put me in a situation like this strain usually does to me lol. Looks like I'll be tieing her down around the tent supports again to keep her from kissing the lights. No,I think we're all done stretching and we should be able to kick back and watch the buds stack!

My Sticky Rice plant is still on the smaller side, but it's got a really strong smell, and I love the look of its leaves. It's been a challenging week with the constant rain and ridiculously high humidity. Keeping things dry indoors has been a real struggle. Despite the weather, I managed to flip all my feminized photoperiod plants to flower this week. I'm hoping the switch will go smoothly, but with this humidity, it's going to be tough.

All of the dosidos’ ended up dying. Hope it was a case of weak genetics and not my incompetence because the northern lights seems to be completely okay, and we’re about 2 and a half weeks in now. Next node is coming in and the plant is really kicking into fast growth now around 4~5th May.

No idea what she was. Tester # 3. She smells like vanilla and citrus. She grew super great I would so love to grow her again. Would be super interested In her genetics. Would grow again in larger pot.

So I had absolutely no ill effect on the plants at at all moving from the green buzz veg feed too the house & garden soil a&b feeds, I did not even given them a water only inbetween the two, I also went straight in with 50% the recommended dose stated on the house & Gardens bottles this switched happened the day before week 5 none showed any signed of defects or deficiency intact they exploded into life over night and then every day after that, I have been using the green buzz fast buds as a folar spry appied too the leaves of the early flower formation after lights out, They seemed too love that too and I also kept the note roots going in, I also started too apply C-RESULT at the fullbl dose stated on the bottle, The plants live this stuff if you have not tried it do it, I am not sponcered by c-result I was given this by my local grow store, It brings all the nutrients straight too the roots it states, All I know is this stuff triggers the plants too suck the pots dry in 24 hours, So make sure you have your feed bucket fully in order before adding this stuff as a mistake here could cost you, But get it right and in 24 hours these little autos doubled in size, It states too used week one of flower only and smells like a sewer lol I have today day one of week 6 Started too add house & garden Bud XL at half strength too increase next week and also I added there top shooter at 1ml per liter of water as 7 as I plan too removed all chemicals exactly as of day 1 of week 7 leaving me week 9 clean, I am training all the shooting tips too my scrog netting the best I can due too very limited space in the grow space, And am praying for some of the promised purple leaves on the fast buds Web site, I has on lemon pie this round that is 2 weeks behind the rest due too non germination but I am wondering if a staggered planting each plant exactly one week behind each other would give me a little more canapé space and the treat of harvesting a plant every week, Using the skyline 1000 only I did not too any of these autos 2 x strawberry cheese cake 2 x lemon pie 4 x fyah Sounds like a plan too me, Thanks for reading

She's doing really well so far. I'm curious to see in the coming weeks whether she'll really grow as big as a gorilla.

11/4 Week 6 Light training to get the buds in light and keep her dry. Watered 11/3 one gal @6.5PH - Fish Sh!t 5ml - Karo syrup 5ml Just keeping an eye on her 11/5 Gorgeous smell coming off her purple buds, reminds me of a taffy shop. Drooling over her Growing well got her into the canopy better. 11/7 Update and bragging! Watering/feeding day today, she loved it! She is turning so pretty! The deep purple looks like fairies stole in the night and are using the little brushes to color her leaves. He hairs stand tall! First strain I have seen with them this tall. The smell is sweet with a warmed fruit smell...for those that bake, closest I can come. Still have some questions as if this is a true Runtz. From her coloring and bud development and her leaf shaping she is a good match. Have added some close ups of my lady for anyone out there wanting to take a stab at figuring her out, any info would be welcome. 1 gal 6.5 PH - CalMag 5ml - Fish Sh!t 5ml - Bio_Bloom 5ml

1st week of flower with Jilly Bean # 4 my best female pheno is growing well and looking stocky. I raised max ppfd to around 750. I set up a new rez with nutes. On day 5 My JB pheno # 4 is growing very well and I'm excited about her potential. Max ppfd is around 850. Will keep light intesity the smae untill plants reach 900-1000 ppfd.

Things are going well , no complaints here . Obi#2 is forming up quite well for a plant that was never trained and has suffered a few problems along the grow (my fault) . Everything is on track tho and rocking and rolling ! Thanks to everyone who comes down and checks out the diary much love and appreciation ! -Happy Growing!
