Welcome to growdiaries grow 14.
This grow is going to be similar to grow 13. So for this grow I have selected my 4 strains. All are autoflower seeds. The kind people at AMS have given me Amnesia trance auto and auto supreme to trial, I have been wanting to give AMS a try for a while. So the 1st 2 spots in the grow go to #1 Amnesia trance auto, #2 auto supreme. The final spots go to my prizes from grower of the month December sponsored by fastbuds. The 2 strains I chose from that prize are strawberry pie and wedding cheesecake. #3 strawberry pie, #4 wedding cheesecake.
All 4 strains will be started in my secret jardin Ds60 under a mars hydro Ts1000. Then as soon as grow 13 is finished in the gorilla shorty under the Viparspectra xs2000 they will be moved into that tent.
Each strain will have its own diary.
Notes.
26/3/22 selected seeds and placed in water for 11hrs to soak. Then placed in wet paper towel.
27/3/22 around 20hrs from starting a tap root started to emerge so placed seed into soil.
28/3/22 nothing today.
29/3/22 broke ground so this is day 0
All 4 strains emerged around the same time.
Hopefully back in a week.

As expected she started to explode in growth this week. As I'm wrapping up my last grow my flower tent has become available. As I'm planning on putting a net over them soon I just continued Lst. So far she has grown champion.

Most of this week I was away so the tent was on autopilot.
When i got back i was pleased to see all 4 strains where still around the same on development. The strawberry pie is the smaller of the 2 fastbuds autos. She is starting to throw out some nice colours now. I'm confident this one is going to hit my 13 weeks scheduled for it, so not long left.

This week the strawberry pie has started bulking up as i would expect from an auto. I see a lot of diaries that usually harvest this week but I always think 13 weeks is about the right time frame for most autos. She quite stocky like the Ams supreme. This one is the farthest along in trichome production.
Notes
Day 71 nothing

This week the strawberry pies trichomes are almost there, the buds have started to get more dense. The colours are out. She should be ready for harvest at the end of next week. Unfortunately my timing has been off and the hot weather has arrived so the battle at controlling temps and Rh has commenced.
Notes

This week the strawberry pie is the 1st plant to hit my target for trichomes. Its been a battle with temps this week as the hot weather continued. I have used a nute agent to help get rid of any salt build up and i am just watering until the end.The colours have come out and she is fading. I'm leaving her for a few more days so I can harvest on the weekend. I won't do another week update and just add them pictures into my harvest update.
This plant has done really well which is why i usually pick fastbuds as my goto breeder. Its grown really well, very little maintenance, unfortunately she didn't have as much space as some of the others so she suffered a bit from that but has definitely produced some nice buds.
Notes
Day 85 manually feed this weeks nute.
Day 86 nothing

Back when dried and have harvest information.
Take it easy.
Strawberry pie went from seed to harvest in 94 days. Unfortunately due to the heat wave she didn't get chance to really pull out the purple colours this strain normally does.
She did quite well for being grown in a 9L pot and got a decent root structure. Because there where 4 plants in the tent this one suffered a bit and got squashed out the way. But she still did a good solid yield.
@JamMAKEcan, it's not how I normally water, but was away for a week so set that up. 20L bucket with 480L/hr water pump, 1/2 inch tube from pump to 4 way manifold, then 1/4 inch line from that to the drippers. Then had a timer set to turn the pump on. Did its job.
@Coopmc, I'm in a good situation with the amount of green I have, that I can actually give it a good cure for a change. I'll have my harvest report done in about another week.
