Cadillac Rainbow Auto: Day 39 of 75. She got watered with 6.5pH tap water treated with Seachem Prime, 1 TBSP molasses, and 1/2 TSP of Recharge. I noticed her lower buds not developing as well so I moved the light closer. It’s at 1000 PPFD now.

It’s time for infused hot coco! I boiled my resin soaked glass bubbler in milk and then drank it with coco mix. I have no idea how strong it is. 🥴

If you attempt this make sure the milk is on low & stir frequently to prevent the milk from scalding.

Cadillac Rainbow Auto: Day 38 of 75. She received more retying and leaf tucking today. She’s stinky. 😁 I may have taken too many leaves. Oh well. 🤷‍♀️

Cadillac Rainbow: Day 37 of 75. I started trimming leaves that refused to be tucked before I realized I could widen her out more using LST. Luckily, I only removed a couple leaves.

Cadillac Rainbow: Day 36 of 75. Her scent is gaining in complexity with the addition of pine and stinky cheese to go along with the skunk and gas I could smell earlier. She’s getting funky! 😁 I turned down the humidity from 55% to 50%.

Cadillac Rainbow: Day 35 of 75. She stretched a bit more last night and doesn’t appear stressed from having the light closer. I did trim additional leaves that were blocking bud sites.

Cadillac Rainbow: Day 34 of 75. I was surprised by her smell! She’s skunky and gassy. I moved her light lower to accommodate for flowering. PPFD changed from 400 to 800. I trimmed leaves that were blocking flower sites or touching dirt.

Did you know standing in front of your open fridge calling out for baking powder does not make it magically appear? I feel lied to by cartoons.

Cadillac Rainbow: Day 33 of 75. She’s definitely switched to flowering mode! 💃💃💃 I did not want to retie her today, but she needed feeding. She was given 1.5 TBSP of Gaia Green 4-4-4, Power Bloom, worm castings and watered with molasses.

Cadillac Rainbow: Day 32 of 75. Today was the first time she didn’t need all of her LST retied. I cleaned up her leaves by tucking them out of the way and trimming the ones blocking bud sites.

Holy smokes! I just used the Mighty Plus for the first time. I feel like I was getting 1/3 of the experience with the POTV Lobo. If you are on the fence about upgrading just do it. The Mighty plus is indescribably better in every way.

Cadillac Rainbow: Day 30 of 75. She’s doing so good with LST! I’m excited! I readjusted her ties and tucked leaves. Left picture is before retying LST, middle picture is after, and the right picture is a close up after readjusting and leaf tucking.

Cadillac Rainbow: Day 29 of 75. Her side branches were long enough to tie down and let more light penetrate her canopy. Left photo is before adjusting LST and right after.
