RQS-Amnesia Haze Automatic

Kolibri Spread compost and introduced worms.

Kolibri I only use rainwater for watering, which is collected and stored in a barrel with selected stones. Since I use my own - highly potent and living - soil, it’s enough for me to occasionally add compost or use green manure. I have mycorrhiza, companion plants, pill bugs, worms, and who knows what else in the bags.

Kolibri The lady is amazingly hungry, maybe I really need to apply some nutrients. I added more worm humus and watered with more mineralized water. The lamp is now hanging higher, so hopefully I can manage the burns. There's no more vertical growth happening, which I find a bit disappointing since I was hoping for more yield. At least the buds are filling out and getting bigger. I lowered the night temperature and hope for a reddish coloration. A bit overwatered, but hopefully she'll bounce back. 01/12 A deficit is becoming apparent, I've already taken countermeasures, but with organic growing it takes a bit longer. This Amnesia is my first autoflowering plant; otherwise, I only use regular seeds. The rapid growth she's putting on seems to overwhelm the soil without synthetic nutrients. For the next plants, I either need to provide more soil or use nutrients after all. I'll see. 01/13 Raised TDS to 290, practically overnight there was an improvement.

Kolibri 16.01. Mangan deficiency! There's nothing I can do about it at this stage. I miscomposed my substrate since I've only grown photoperiod strains so far. I've now adjusted the substrate for the other auto plants. I'm learning ;) 18.01. Nitrogen is being depleted, which is normal and also desired. 19.01. Nice color, unfortunately due to a deficiency... 20.01. Heavy infestation of fungus gnats. I didn't notice it because of the dense canopy. Now I know what's causing the deficiency, the roots are being eaten! I've applied neem oil solution and tomorrow I'll water in nematodes. 21.01. After 24 hours, the yellow trap is full. Surprisingly, only this one plant is infested. 22.01. I feel for her!

Kolibri 24.01. The plant is approaching harvest. I made a few mistakes, but it's my first autoflowering grow and I still have some seeds left. Considering that I underestimated the nutrient needs and only recognized a heavy infestation of fungus gnats late, it has developed quite nicely. From now on, it's just osmosis water with a pH of 6. 28.01. The buds are gaining mass. 29.01. It's such a shame about these buds. Next time, I'll do better!

Kolibri 31.01. The buds are continuing to grow, although slower than hoped. Trichomes are 80% clear. 03.02. She's diligently producing more buds. The stems are short, but almost completely covered in flowers. I really have to be careful not to catch any mold.

Kolibri 07.02. The buds are continuing to gain mass and the trichomes are slowly changing color. From now on, there will be no more water, as I will be harvesting soon.

Kolibri 10.02. Today I cut her down. She hasn't reached her full potential yet, only about 5% of the trichomes are amber. But a lot went wrong with the plant, and I can make better use of the space with new plants. Now it's drying, and afterward, I'll update the diary.
