Blue Mammoth Auto, I like the name.
Blueberry Skunk automated by Siberian Ruderalis, Indica dominated strain. Medium THC with a good CBD contents tend to provide a light, calm and relaxing body high - handy for every stash. I am missing good old skunk and am curious about this blueberry blend.
I have this seeds for a while, keeping them in fridge.
Put one seed in wet but squeezed out paper towel, seed pops in 1-2 days.
Put popped seed, root downside in wet but squeezed out rockwool cube, root grows out the cube in 3-5 days.
Put rockwool cube in DWS by GHE, it's automatic.
I have added approx. 25% of tree bark chips to a standard expanded clay substrate.
Have added nutrients and fungi/bacts mix by end of this week.
Running lamps dimmed at 25% gives current max power of 60W.
Climate in tent is cool and quite dry, the girl seems to be OK with that.
Slowly increasing nutrient content. She is a hungry and a fast girl :)
She has doubled her size in this week, also first roots have reached solution container and are approx. 10cm long.
First stigmas.
I had increased power on one side for a bit, so there were 30W on left and 60W on right side. Going to increase power on left side next week.
Happy growing all!
Sweet little Mammoth is awakening :)
Size is almost doubled again, roots showing fast and steady development.
Have added +30W on the left side, so there were 60W on each side this week, going to increase left side for another +30W in next week.
+21cm - size doubled again :) she is growing more into height and less to the sizes, probably I have to apply some LST in next weeks.
Root and preflowers show good performance this week.
I have always used an additional air stone in my previous runs in this pot. This time we are using only original setup from GHE, let us check the difference, if there is any.
Happy New Year all!
+8cm of height, visible trichomes on new leaves, good buds development for her age :)
Lamps are set as 90W on left and 90W on right side and I keep them like this also for following week.
Trouble - I have noticed bad drainage mid of this week, probably blockage was caused by fast developing roots together with fungi/bact mix. I had to drill additional holes - big shock for the plant for sure. I really hope for her recovering and some additional cm of grow soon.
Will continue to feed with pre-flower diet next week.
She has gained 3cm in first half of the week, I think it's her final size.
Still have trouble with drainage - see picture.
Doing very light defoliation - maybe 1-2 x a week, removing a couple of leaves.
Smell - wow! Original hemp odor with lightly sweet notes - exactly what I was looking for. But exactly this makes me a bit of disappointed with her size, actually... I check if I can do something about it.
Lamps are still dimmed to 180W, no plans to change that.
Flashing her last 2 days before switching to flower diet in next week.
Happy grows everybody!
Nice flower development in this week, the smell is just gorgeous.
Keep having difficulties with drainage - adjusted dripping pump to work 15min per hour, looks like it improves the situation.
No trainings.
Well, bud development is just gorgeous by this girl, firm and heavy! A lot of fat trichomes everywhere, most turned milky white already. Smell - it is very strong for a short bush like this I would say and I am in love with this classic aroma!
I am flashing her for 3 days, planning one week of Ripen diet next.
A lot of leaves turning yellow since mid of this week. Maybe the girl shows some nute deficiency, I am not sure. Considering her late flowering stage there is probably not much to do about it I guess. I have removed most of sick looking leaves.
We are getting closer to harvest and this is AMAZING! Happy growing all!

White hair/pistils are turning bright orange quite fast in this week. I have stopped Ripen diet and have switched to flash already on Thursday, harvest is coming soon I guess.
I have dimmed both lamps to 60W each, so its 120W in sum currently.
I have cut couple of buds and drying them for testing. Smells very diesel as I cut them - I am very curious what is going to be her final aroma.
Unfortunately I have damaged her roots in week 5 during the stretching phase which is the reason for her compact size. I have enjoyed growing her, probably mostly because of her smell.
I have cut the buds and dried them for a week at 50-55% RH before putting in the jar. Some buds I am curing for some days now, tested them - well, surprised by the smooth vape and very happy with the taste. She was a bit difficult to trim - a lot of sugar leaves.
Thanks to GD, business and of course the community to make this thing possible!
