Paper towel for 24 hours, then I buried the seed in a jiffy pot.
As soon as the seedling came up and dropped the shell, I transplanted her into the permanent 12 litre air pot.
Using biobizz light-mix soil, and watered gently with some added biobizz root juice.
Germinated with no problems, all good so far!
Finding it a bit difficult to water the small seedling in a big pot. Trying to just keep the area around the plant moist. Will get easier with some more experience I guess!
Sorry for not having the best picture quality, my hand are quite shaky ☹️
Day 4.
The little girl are looking healthy.
Decided not to give her more water today, the soil looked nice and moist. Do not want to risk overwatering the poor thing.
Day 9.
All is going ok. Trying not to give her too much water. Going to wait a few more days before introducing her to some nutes.
Some great news!
After some really hard negotiations with my wife, I was able to order myself a Viparspectra XS4000! Really can't wait to get it in a couple of weeks! I'm sure it will be a nice upgrade from my v600
After germination, the seedling has about 3 weeks of nutrients stored inside the seed to provide the plant with what it needs for that time. I would start feeding around day 21 (week 3) very lightly as it is an auto. Autoflowers need alot less nutrients then photoperiods, so start off with a quarter to half of the recommended dose of nutrients around week 3. Any earlier and you run the risk of nute burn and nitrogen toxicity.
She is doing really well. Gave her a very small dose of bio-grow with the watering at day 16.
I use biobizz light-mix, so I guess she will need the nutes very soon. Also, using airpots for the first time. Looking forward to see if there are any benefits. Airpots are no fun to water!
Day 18. Looks very happy, got a small amount of biobizz grow today as well. Maybe I should top her to keep her lower?
Day 22. Got my new Viparspectra xs4000 to replace my v600. Got it it ready now, so nice with no fan noise!
Day 25. Looking really good and seems happy with the lights. Gave her the recomended biobizz nutes amount for week 3.
Have not been able to follow up my diary unfortunately, real life got in the way again.
A real shame, because this baby have been such a pleasure to grow.
I find it weird that this one tuned out so much shorter than my last banner. But have been looking so much healthier throughout the entire grow.
Maybe it is because of my upgrade of equipment. From v600 to xs4000 and a new secret jardin extractor fan and filter?
Anyway.
Day 67.
Looking so good now in my opinion.
Short and compact with loads of big, dense and sugat coated buds.
No amber so far, so probably atleast 2 more weeks to go. Still got plenty of healthy leafs left on her.
During early flowering I did a massive defoliation, because this girl was so bushy.
The other girls on the picture is a Strawberry banana auto, and a gorilla cookies auto.
Both in early flower, after defoliation.
All looking good! No amber yet, so probably at least 2 weeks left.
Day 74. Gave them all pure water today. Will use nutes again on next feeding. All three of them loves nutes, so could probably done that today as well. But need to try and save my nute stash for later.
Think my Bruce banner is almost ready to go. What do you guys think?
