So week 2 was a bit of a fuck up, I think. The scrog went into flower and by the end of week 1, it was looking far to busy and leafy, zero light was getting through so I decided to thin down a little. Also I wasn't happy with how the scrog was over developing, so I took away the net and allowed them some free growth and little more spread across the canopy. I think this work stressed them a little, who knows?? Ideally I should have given them a far more comprehensive prune a week before flower, alas I didn't so here I am. This weekend will mark 3 weeks of flower, and apart from the prune I've seriously left alone and will have for a couple weeks, so this weekend they will get some serious defoliation and probably a few straggler tops will be removed to thin down a little. After this weekend, again, just feed and monitor. So looks like I was just being a bit of a drama queen, the plants are doing superbly as I near wk 3, lots and lots of colas. I will be thinning these as needed whilst I prune by taking out any stragglers. I've also added back in some boost nutes just to help overcome any stress I may have caused. I've also raised the lights slightly to reduce stress at this important stage. Last one for this week, all plants fully defoliated which I'm stoked about, no problems, I think I'll need the odd support cane since a binned the scrog, but apart from that not much else left to do other that monitor all aspects to make sure of no silly mistakes.

Lilly x White Widow is growing great. I did a solution change on her 4 days ago. She is bulking now, and starting to give off a aroma. She has a nice layer of frost started as well.

Now every time I open the tent fifty cent candy shop song intro plays in my head and my nose do that Lil bewitched dance and I smile like wow this is really like a candy shop and there's a big cotton candy party going on. The ladies a feeding now like food is running out, I'm down to ever tree days watering and they are just in overdrive with bud development. The fade has begun to be more pronounced long with the different tones of citrus.

Semana 5 Floración 🌼

Day 71 🌤️☀️🌤️🌥️ 13-23 degrees, humidity 53-78%. I start into the 11th week with an intense check of the trichomes. Tropicana started to produce amber and blue trichomes, next to purple and pink. The purple get’s darker and the appearance of the flowers change to a beautiful bouquet of fragrant colours. Day 72 ☁️🌧️☁️⛈️ 15-24 degrees, humidity 69-84%. Today my plants needed to be canopied again because of strong rainfall. I‘m glad that I have this opportunity while they continue standing outside and ripening. I take some fotos of Tropicana and her trichomes, gave her one liter of pure rainwater and let her wait for the next sunny days. And wait, and wait probably several more days. Day 73 - End of spring, beginning of summer! 🤓 🌧️☁️🌧️☁️17-25 degrees, humidity is 70-90%. Got to have an eye on the flowers, they are dry but the humidity is too high for doing nothing. Today in the evening I took a few leafs of my plants for a relax tee. A nightingale is singing next to our balcony. Love it! Day 74 🌧️🌧️☁️🌧️ 19-24 degrees, humidity is 75-90%. Tropicana is smelling wonderfully. It‘s like a bouquet of all her colors. My nose is in love! Day 75 ⛅️🌧️☁️⛈️ 13-19 degrees, humidity is 80-94 %. Waiting for sunshine. I decided after reading about, to flush the potting soil twice. Once I did today with 10 liter water and a lot of drainage wich was quit clear at he end. A second time I will do it in about a week then maybe stop watering her. Day 76 🌤️⛅️☁️🌥️ 12-24 degrees, humidity is between 60 and 80. Today Tropicana enjoys her life on our balcony. She looks fine after flushing yesterday early morning. I‘m looking once per day on three flowers at the same point if there‘s fresh growth, and there is. Found a Terpmonster this morning. Wake and bake. Psychedelic Sunday! Night 77 🌤️☀️🌤️☀️ 15-26 degrees and the humidity is 55-73%. I brought Tropicana inside to take some pictures with a flashlight. It’s not so easy to catch the real tropical colors, nearly this fotos give an idea. She is smelling very intensive. Very fruity floral fragrance stayed for hours in the flat. I really need to think where do dry our weed. Because of different reasons I won‘t do it in the flat. So I think about the basement or maybe on the balcony depending on humidity and weather forecast.

So I started LST and the girls seem to be responding well to the method. It has now been 4 weeks since the sprout and am I very excited. Might continue veg until it's eighth week and then switch to flowering.

We are currently working on the recovery from the initial stem split on plant A. She's almost all the way recovered with only a slight crack still remaining. Hopefully that split and the overwatering won't disrupt or stunt the growth of this lady too much. For the sake of experimenting I pulled off the first set of fan leaves that were stunted and discolored in hopes the energy used by the plant will be directed more towards the new growth. Plant C is looking great and loving the increased Par values from our light as we are getting good vertical growth and the main stem is looking super healthy. As we get through to the end of the week we will start transitioning plant A for LST in the form of tie down. The fan is currently applying pretty good stress to the already week stalk of plant A, but she again is almost 100% closed back up. The whole purpose of the fan is to strengthen the stalk with very light stress. Plant C will see LST beginning in 2 weeks as she is 1 week behind Plant A. Many people ask me about the LL on the guage and I will remind everyone, I live in a high climate desert around the 49th parallel so it's cold and dry. When the tent is closed I usually see rh values near 40% where the normal RH (Relative Humidity) is around 10%. It's just dry here. That said the grow community here and the quality of bud is top shelf as it gets. Rh doesn't necessarily impact the end results. End goal is still 360g harvest out of this tent we will see if we get it.

This grape is a big frosty beast. I think she has the potential to put off an easy pound if she bulks up the way I think she will. I spread the plants out a little this week so they get better light and air flow. Other than that I haven't done anything besides keep the reservoir full. Still pumping nutrients 1 minute on 20 minutes off. They are getting .5 tsp maxibloom per gallon. Not going to run any boosters this round. They dont look like they want or need it.

Growing well so far. This week I added some LST to encourage outward growth. Things started to get a little wonky towards the end of the week bit once she starts to stretch out i think she will look a little neater.

The strawberry banana is growing tall and big, despite she was the one who germinated later, the skywalker should remain shorter as genetic but is having a strong and fast growing too, both the Runtz are shorter and smaller, we will see in the next one two weeks if they will recuperate their slow growing 🤞🏻💚

Having a hard time deciding when to chop her..my second critical..Milky trichomes but not a single amber on the calyxes…the buds have definitely gone through a burst..becoming thicker and dense..some buds falling over so I tied the base with string for support. This week so many white pistils have popped out and sites like reddit or roll it up are telling me some strains have white hairs up until harvest while others claim more time is needed. I think I can wait one more week but after that I’m over it!

Well most of them are sick,, some have lost or never had many pistils. It starts to smell a bit now. I still don't know how to deal with collective flushing and harvesting early rippen flowers. Found out the roots were badly burnt,(no slime or foam): 3 of them lost the roots beneath the pot, Jah only knows the state the roots are in. Hoping they won't die before harvest...

Today on Day 141 and at the same time @ the end of the 9th week of flowering it is Harvest day (final harvest) for the remaining two Tropicanna Banana's (Plants #1 and #3). Plant #4 was harvested on Day 134 (8th week of flowering) - see harvest pictures week 8 Plant #3 was harvested on Day 138 (9th week of flowering) - see harvest pictures week 9 Did not take any wet weights as i am drying the buds on the stalks and i dont wanna know how many stalkes i grew 😂 Will be back soon with the dry weights of each one of the four ladies. Some pacience is asked now 😬

📆 Semana 4 El stretch ha terminado y el cultivo entra en inicio de bulking, con la energía centrada en la formación de flores. Los cogollos empiezan a agruparse y el stacking se hace visible. La estructura está bien definida y la canopia se mantiene uniforme, favoreciendo la luz y la aireación. La resina ya es notable, incluso en hojas de abanico, y el perfil aromático empieza a activarse. Seguimos creciendo fuerte 💪!
