Pineapple express strain day 8 - 109 Harvest Dried and tested Update

Hi all,
1st water change used hydroguard and revive. It has been hot so hope revive will help with heat stress. I did use bio sponge. So I think I didn’t plant deep enough it sprouted but was to high in sponge. So I split sponge open dropped root little further down and Penny has been doing great.! 2nd photo is after I reset seed.

Hi all,
Water change day 15. Day 5 of early veg. Only using hydroguard and revive (due to heat). She looks good I did notice some burn on her first set of leaves but new growth looks good.

Hi All,
So day 22 water change. I added silica from my reading I hear PE strain loves it. Let sit for 1 hr to bond. Only adding hydroguard after grobo does it’s dispensing.
All say after my last water change I checked after 2 hrs and my PH 6.2 / PPM 1000 /EC 2.0 Not sure if that is causing rust spots and some burnt tips on lower leaves. New growth looks great Penny is loving life!
This time Ph out 6.05 / PPM 500 /EC 1.0
PH in 10.3 PPM 32 ( w/ silica after 1 hr) / due to my RO system and found out I have alkaline filter hooked up PH 10.3 by itself.So far plants been ok with it … I guess :thinking:. Lol The funny thing is after my nutes dispense hardly any #1 &2 are dispensed and my pH is 6.1


Definitely check all again after 2 hrs.
After 2 hrs>> PH 6.3/ PPM 515/ EC 1.03 >> as stated before no pH up or down dispensed. So I guess The Grobo nutes lower my pH to a good range.
Any advice greatly appreciated.
Happy Growing!

Penny looks good smell is coming on strong. I am not looking forward to defoliating. I hate pruning/ trimming such a healthy and happy plant.:slightly_smiling_face: Happy Growing! Also forgot to mention grobo didn’t dispense any bottles when I did my fill. I had to redrain and refill to get bottles to dispense.

Looking good! At first I could not tell if that was the second fan or not, but she looks right on track :seedling::+1:t2:

Thank you… No not yet she is growing fast. She is right at top of first fan. So think letting her ride into transition in 2 days she should be good. I believe she will stretch to getting close to top. Hopefully in the sweet spot. :+1:t4:

Penny looking good been trying to hold off on the defoliate ( trimming) but she just keeps feeling out. Also adding water to Grobo daily or every other day has helped in keeping PPM /EC lower . Thank you SWSVIC for that helpful info. Happy Growing!

Hi All,
Water change day 64 flower day 12.
water out PH 6.2 /PPM 635/ EC 1.27
Water in RO (no longer adding armor si Silica ) ph 10.5 ppm 36 / added to Grobo wait until Grobo dispenses bottles 5,4,3. After 1 hr add hydroguard.
After 2 hrs PH 5.1 (not sure why pH is low/calibration time)/ PPM 830 / EC 1.6
Penny is still happy. More white pistils little bit of frost and starting to fill in. I did push cocopod down a little very carefully to give some room up top. I did notice either with this strain or adding silica she hasn’t gotten burned by being close to light. ( My last strain dosidos burned and it was about 1/2 inch smaller) .Happy Growing!

Hi All,
Water change day 92 flower day 40.
water out PH 6.05/PPM 776/ EC 1.55
RO water in ph 10.5 / ppm 30 wait until Grobo dispenses bottles 5,4,3. After 1 hr add hydroguard.
Penny is still doing great bud size is still gaining. I have extended flower an extra week as she is not ready to start flushing. Her trichomes are still clear few are cloudy I also noticed a few amber. She is smelling lovely and only removing leaves that are dying off. She is drinking 1-1.5 liters every 2 days. As before I have humidity issues can’t get under 40 and gets as high as 55. I chose this strain because of the humidity issues I have
hopefully she is happy.Happy Growing!
