Week 2 of the flowering stage has commenced with my magnificent Mimosa x Orange Punch auto plant, and the progress is nothing short of extraordinary. Standing proudly at 65 cm tall, the plant's growth and development continue to exceed my expectations, promising a bountiful harvest in the near future. Environmental conditions remain stable and conducive to optimal growth. Daytime temperatures range between 28-29°C, providing the warmth needed to support vigorous flowering, while nighttime temperatures maintain a comfortable 24-25°C. Humidity levels remain consistent at 55-60%, creating a balanced environment that encourages healthy bud development without excess moisture. In response to the plant's increased growth and metabolic activity during this crucial stage, I have further adjusted the watering schedule. Now, the plant receives a generous 0.7 liters of water each day, ensuring that it remains well-hydrated and nourished as it directs its energy towards flower production. One of the most delightful aspects of this stage is the emergence of sweet scents from the developing flowers. Each day brings new aromatic notes, a testament to the plant's genetic heritage and the care it receives. The flowers themselves are becoming increasingly resinous, with a light touch leaving my fingers pleasantly sticky—a sign of the potent resin glands producing cannabinoids and terpenes. As I continue to monitor and care for my Mimosa x Orange Punch auto plant, I'm filled with a sense of anticipation and wonder at the natural processes unfolding before me. Each day brings new growth, new scents, and new experiences in this journey of cultivation and discovery. With dedication and attention to detail, I look forward to nurturing this plant through the remaining weeks of flowering, eagerly anticipating the day when I can enjoy the fruits of this labor in a bountiful harvest. Until next time.

Hello fellow buddlovers! It is my great pleasure to announce the start of week 3! All our competitors are looking healthy and strong! Today we begin to nourioush our little Padawans into becoming true committed servants of JAH. They had have a taste of God forbidden fruits of nutrition from Gold Label such as root boost and soil a/soil b and some supplements for desert from humbolt county's own Ultra snow & Cal mag. To inspire the growth and the quality of the beauty sleep we replaced old CO2 bag with a new one. Glads me to see that our soldiers are doing really good. They have growth from 17cm(day 15) to 20cm(day 17) in just 2 days since i fed them. Really looking forward to see the full veggie bloom out. Yours own Glada Minnen! Don't be shy to ask anyting :).

Week 8 Flower Flush flush flush 💦🚽💦🚽💦 It's extremely important to flush for at least 14 days when using synthetic nutes, or any bottled nutes in my opinion. The aim is to make her cannibalize (fade) as much as possible before she's chopped. By doing this, she's using up her stored nutrients, causing the leaves to eventually die. The better the flush the cleaner the smoke 👌💨 even when in an organic set up, the plant needs to be nicely faded before being harvested. Otherwise she's still full of nutrients. I still feel I'll be able to get an even better flush when I eventually make the switch to RO water, as my tap water holds a ppm value of approx 150. It's not too much, but 0 is always better. She was taken down on Day 57 flower, after a 16 Day flush. I didn't want to take her any further as she was quite stressed being so close to the light. So to avoid getting seeds I waited until she had a beautiful fade before giving her the chop ✂️ I always take my girls down about 30mins before the light turns on so there is minimal chlorophyll production in the plant. This is to ensure the best smell, taste and overall burn after drying and curing. A subtle but very sweet-ish tropical fruit skin kind of smell to her. Her buds are super dense and covered in trichomes. I trimmed off all fan leaves and then each branch was hung in my drying box and placed in a cool area. She was dry after 6 days and ready to be dry trimmed and jarred for curing. I'll post those pics with the harvest update! Thanks for following and happy growing! 🐺

I did some LST. It is a very open plant i think this is from her sativa haze parents. Also did some defoliation. Her main cola is really stacking up very nice. i hope and think this is going to be a nice huge main cola. You can see the difference in genetics really good compared to my DP plants. I'm a terpene lover and hoping for something different and special ones with her. Thanks for checking and stay safe all 😋

Day 30. Girls got water and bacterial feed yesterday. Grow well. Some stretching too much, lights should be lower ... But I alway can use SuperCroping ;))) Hope in two weeks all old plants will be gone and girls will occupy space correctly. Water , then Heavy feed in plans this week, I updated my approx feed plant, just bacterial feed I give once in a week, or in reality approx every 10-11 days .. Constantly spray them with one ml/L of BioHeaven. They get it at least in the morning and most days straight before lights go out. My older plants are almost done, so I have to play with humidity,but never forget BUD ROT !!!! Loads of leaf tucking and small training involved too. Btw, look at plastic pot, all same feed, spray, care, but without humidity dome ... Plant was out, when all other were just dropped into soil ... Mars SP 150 helps me so much in such overcrowded space .... Happy Growing !!!

Welcome back boys, Everything's going as planned :) Still don't know if I should defoliate, I chose to let the leaves grow a bit more until next week. I will use wood sticks to maintain them a little more spaced. See you next week buddies

Switched to my 5 gal pots now, dumped 6L of water into each plant to get the pH back down still waiting for them to dry out a little before the next watering which should be less so next week will have water amounts Height is for the holy punch again. Power flower is still around 1.5"

The girls are looking better and better each day. They have finished whatever stretch they had begun, and are now stacking some very decent buds 😊 They are showing some phosphorus deficiencies, but at the same time are showing that they are getting some nutrient burn 🤔🧐 I’m used to making one solution to feed, and that seems very difficult to balance with some of these Auto’s, as I have had to adjust for these girls and not my others, anywho, the joys of Autoflower’s ❤️ Only a few weeks left, hopefully we’ll get through it as they are looking promising at this point. Happy Gardening 👊🇨🇦❤️🌱

Day 42-49: I had some growth this week primarily on the R3 and some on the CbDream. Very slow on the R2. I’m wondering if it’s just sub par phenotypes. Idk anymore haha. Just waiting to see what happens here. Don’t think I’ll pack it right full next time. And try to concentrate more on 8-12 tops on a manifold rather than 30 smaller ones. Live and learn. I bought an Inkbird heat and cooling controller, seems to be holding my temps and 77 in the day and 69 at night. I decided to go back to week 4 ratios to see if that helps, they aren’t overly different so we’ll see. Runoff for Cali Kush and R2 which are closer to the heater is 5.75 1000 and R3 and CbDream is 6.05-1.2 1400, so plain water for the next couple waterings.

Day 50. Girls still on water diet, one more watering, or maybe even two more left. In video tried to highlight, most N hit plants, others are more than fine, thinking to throw out all who still in veg or didn't made through canopy, its still jungle at mines ... Nothing special, supercroped plant recovered well, think i have two new objects for HST ;)))) they fly, but stretch patern that they got from to high lights is repeated even when they reached optimal height, mistakes are bad and have long lasting consequences... One third of flower is done i guess, only couple plants will be bigger than an ounce, but i think i have like 40 of them ;))))))) Next time i count ! Day 54. Girls are very dry, some leaves still curled now from that, not only excess of Nitrogen... My night shifts don't leave me time, whenever i am back - they sleep... 12 hours shift, bike, train ... no time left at all, but .. Today they got still water , but i added 2ml of silica acid to it, ph after all - 6.6. Thinking to defoliate them sooner or later, maybe even today ... Next watering full feed or maybe not, if i rip all that leaves away, still valuating plants, would do it last week, but had no time ...

Fungus gnats coming with the soil might take the chance to come out now for breeding. i'm waiting with a 9 mm rifle. in the past i found 6 gnats in 2 of 8 x 50 l biobizz lightmix bags coming out of the soil. i could eliminate every single gnat successfully ;) rotating harvest: the little ones will be harvested completely when ready. at this point only the top branches of the big ones will be cut...and the new (basic-watered) pots of the new grow will move into the tent. 2-3 weeks later the secod half of the big ones will be cut and the second half of the new grow will move in... nutes: biobizz / soil: biobizz lightmix bloom,grow,topmax,activera,algamic + aminopower instead of bio heaven (too expensive) individual feeding schedule/once a week: veg: 200 - 600 ppm bloom: 600 - 900 ppm water: ro-water with: veg: 100-150 ppm calmag bloom: 150 ppm calmag

This is my second Big Bud grow but my first outdoor grow. The buds aren't as dense and the indoor with my CO2 bag. The bud is still very potent though.
