Day 0 - 08.07
Hi everybody , today I'm trying to grow my own Autos feminised seeds.
I used a Sweet Skunk auto reversed fem to pollinise a Positronics Super Cheese Express.
This run goal is simple : Get F2 seeds from my actual F1 (final goal is to reach F3 or F5).
MORE DETAILS INCOMING
Day 2 - 10.07
I've put 2 batches of 6 seeds each into watter , then after they sunk I put them I cotton. Today 7 popped : 3 of the 1st batch , 4 of the 2nd batch.
I hope the germination rate will reach 80% as a minimum
Day 3 - Everythings just fine. Will put them in soil on day 4
Day 5 - So the batch#1 is now the green batch & the batch#2 is the black one
GreenB: 4/6 popped & are now in soil & healthy. Wainting for the 2 others
BlackB: 5/6 popped but only 2 are in pot. The 3 others are to small to be poted & 1 of them seems to rot.
Day 6 - They are healthy and are thriving good
Day 8 - A week since they poped & 4 plants are now fully viables , the 2 others aren't really strong so let's see if they survive.
6 plants out of 12 seeds : 50% germ rate
Day 10 - They doing weel , only 1 is still weak but the 5 others are coming along nicely
Day 12 - Leaves are bigger. , next week they'll go in their final pot 7L or 11L for a full Outdoor run. No feeding , just clear water
Day 14 - They are now strong enough to be transplant in their final 7L pots. I'll also start my feeding schedule on day 15.
Day 17 - I transplant them in their final 7L pots , I hope it will be enough but I can't really use bigger pots as a want to keep my grow stealth. I add some bat guano and some sea Cal Mag direct into the soil so I will use a light nutrient schedule. Maybe I'll use only granule to avoid the nutrient mix in water
.
Day 18 - Potassium sulfate adding today to enrich my old soil
NB : A little edit to say that my soil is a 100% recycled one ! So it was a poor soil befor the Guano / Cal mag &
Potassium sulfate , but it's still not rich yet , I'll adjust the nutrients during the whole grow
.
Day 19 - No luck for me during this summer , I have to deal with a lot of fungies issue and that run will follow the same rule. So 1 plant is dead beceause of that damn fungie. Only girls 3 left out of 12 seeds : Not really what I expected , I hope that my futur runs will have a better surviving ratio.
Day 20 - 12 hours of sun a day but 8~9h of effective light with no wind and heat. Pictures incoming
.
Day 20 - They are healthy 🌱, I'm happy with my soil mix so far. I'll try to feed them less as possible and when it will be the time to do so : I will use a generic 6-6-6 NPK Nutrient ( the 6 serie is scaring me 😲)
SONG OF THE WEEK : STEFFLON DON - 16 SHOTS
-------
Day 27 - The SSW#3 is recovering well from her topping & bending : I try to supercrop her . She's pushing secondary stems. I will use LST/HST on the SSW#2 & #3 . This week were a tuff one fi dem : the week started with a 31° Sun & ended with an really heavy rain but they are strong & they keep growing good !
-------
Day 23 - The SSW#3 were toped , the SSW#2 will be SuperCropped but I'll wait a bit for her to be taller so it will be easy to bend the top of the main stem , SSW#1 will be the Lst one
-------
Day 22 - They are becoming taller days after days. SSW#1 = 17 cm // SSW#2 = 13 cm // SSW#3 = 12 cm. They are already pushing secondary stems so it's give me an idea : I will top one , bend one to LST and let one grow regulary, it could be a fun test.
The heat doesn't affect them which is a good news.
Ps: The nuts were add in the first days of the 2nd week - nothing this week.
Looks like a good time to me. Personally I prefer FIMing over topping with autos. Seems to cause less shock to the plant and produces similar results. Have fun! 👍
SONG OF THE WEEK : Isaiah Rashad - 4r Da Squaw
-------
Day 32 - That week is a bit hard to manage as the weather is clearly against me, after the hard sun it is time for the heavy rain to shows up 😧. But it's outdoor rules.
But the ladies are doing good :
-SSW#3 were topped + suppercroped thanks to Tazard & Lumberjack advices I think she's doing right ( many thanks guys 😍). She's 20 cm tall now
-SSW#1 Will not be topped , I'm just doing a light LST on her by bending each secondary stems with my fingers everyday and you can see a "good" result on the pictures. She's 34 cm tall
-SSW#2 is late on the secondary stems but tall , I still don't know if I'm gonna train her. She's the tallest with 39cm
SONG OF THE WEEK : TASH SULTANA - JUNGLE
-------
Day 39 to 41 - (16.08) - So the ladies are doing well but looks a bit pale to me , I put it on the recycled soil that I did not enrich correctly so I will correct that with a single shot of FloraNova Grow in a couple days. The weather is still playing with me but nothing I can do against outdoor rules but the good side is that I didn't need to water them once that week.
The supercroped one is flowering earlier than the 2 others , she's almost not stretching anymore , the stems are solids.
The "Bending" one have a "stretchy" look
The "Nothing" one is also tall but thin too as her secondary stems are extremly short
SONG OF THE WEEK : Anderson .Paak - Come Down ( Real Funcky s**t )
-----------------------------
Day 47 - 22.08 - Well the ladies are in a rush , they get taller each days . No fertilizers only water. Will give them a push with Megacrop or Hybrids Powder or Both.
-SW#1 The lower stems were bended but the structure is too "stretchy" due to distance between nodes.
-SW#2 Good but pale
-SW#3 is flewering quicker than her sisters and she star to smell a bit when you'r close to her. She reacted well to the hst and looks like a little bush but she's not looking like a yielder.
---------
Day 50 - I noticed that they are pale... not hard to guess that my soil is not rich enough so tommorow I will water them with MegaCrop or Hybrids Powder + Calcium
SONG OF THE WEEK : Macka Diamond - Dye Dye
-------
Day 50 - Feed with Hybrids Powder yesterday but they are still pale today even more than yesterday. I would say a N def and something else more, need to check. I see more and more pistols each days 😄👍🤘
-------
Day 55 - Under the rain💦 and they liked it. Hybrids powder gave them a good smell (2/3 are smelling good) , and a better trichomes production , the yellowing stoped on the lower leaves but did not turn green again : maybe in few days.
ARTISTE OF THE WEEK : MAC MILLER (RIP)
---------------
This week have been a really quite one for the ladies , I feed them once with Hybrids Powder with 1.4 Ec and 6.4 PH. I notice that the leaves are less pale than last weeks, I put it on the recycled soil , I did not enrich it like I should so it result in a lack of N. They are smelling good but nothing compare to their parents , at that stage the smell is pretty stealth as you have to be close to smell it. It smells like Mango & lychee but not the fresh Mango , more like the one that you forgot 2 days under a hard sun 😲. The buds are packing nice and the structure is similar to the Super cheese one.
Song Of The Week : 6LACK - Switch
--------
Day 66 - 13.09 - The ladies are in a tent for 2 days due to a Storm alert. They still doing good , the smell is more sugary and less pugnant than previous days. They are a bite small for their age, I mean the nutrition schedule was and is still lame but I was hoping for something bigger , more like the Sweet skunk and less than Super cheese . I also realised that I did not spay any of her with sts so it is already to late to cross the f2 so I will cross them (all) with the reversed blue dreamatic pollen.
--------
Day 68 - They are good after the storm 👌 Today and yesterday I the 3 girls were pollinated by Blue Dream Matic pollen so I can already tell you that I will harvest in 2 times , the 1st one will be based on the trichomes ratio and the second will be on day 98 to let the ladies makes nice seeds 👉 Super Sweet F1 x Blue Dream matic = Super sweet dream ?
--------
Day 70 - Nothing special to say , the ladies has been feed with Hybrids powder & calcium Ph 6.4 EC 1.4. They are starting to get a bit yellow so I think they will be ready soon , the trichomes are cloudy and a bit amber but still clear on a least 30/40%. See you on week 11th
Stay tunned and you can also check my current diaries with the Green Poison XL auto & Gorilla Girl from Sweet Seeds😍
SONG OF THE WEEK: Joyner Lucas - I'm not racist 👈 play it twice 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
-------
Day 72 - The ladies are packing nice nugs , the supercropped one is looking like she still wanna produce new flowers and new pistills 😁, the nugs are hard , really hard and smelling a sweet mango/exotic flavor but it's stealth as you have to be close to smell it. The "christmas three" one is more sensitive to high RH and a bit of mold were removed out of 3 spots so it's fair to say that she's not really strong in front of the others but the buds are hard rocks and smelling really good like mango & sweet all around the garden 😍. The last one got the nicest bud structure , likes tons of little calyxs stuck together but she's also the one with less smell.
------
Day 73 - 21.09 - 27 days left before the harvest so today will be their last feeding with Greenhouse Hybrids powder to have enough nutrients for the last days before tap water on day 76/77 then a full flush on day 80 until day 100. The Ec were 1.45 before my PK boost and 1.62 after with 6.4 PH for that last feeding 🌺🌹
------
Day 77 - Last day of the week , they start to yellowing a bit , the next flush will hopfully increase the yellowing process to get naturally rid of the chlorophyll. Pictures Next weeks 👉 23 days left before harvest 🙌
SONG OF THE WEEK:
--------
Day 80 - 20 days left , the ladies are good but some buds have little mold/rot issues since 🤔 a long time but it is harder to contain it much longer. I will probably cut 2 or 3 buds before it's become too hard to handle.
-------
Day 84 - Flush with 10L of rain water each , 16 days left 👍. After a trichomes check I will cut half of the crop soon , I can see 15% amber trichomes at least. The reason why I harvest in 2 parts is to because the seeds are not ready yet on the lower buds.
Song of the week : Eminem - Role Model
-------
Day 85 - The ladies have been defoliated then cut the same day , they were smelling good and ready for the drying process.
the trichomes ratio is good too , around 15/20% amber so I the stone should be present and potent (hope so).
Thank everybody who comment , like, talk about my grow with me and give me motivation each days - see y'all at the smoke test 😘

This project was my 1st serious home cross project , I fist wanted to bring this cross to the 3rd even 5th generation but I realise that it was a waist of time as I grow autos outdoor with a 12/12 light schedule it's impossible to tell you if they are real autos even if it's a cross between 2 F3 autos. I used an home-made STS to make a sex reversion on a Sweet skunk auto to polinate the Super cheese express so the seeds are all feminised. I finaly cross it with the Blue dream'atic ( sex reversion) and will soon try the seeds in my "Blue Dreamz project".
***
The plants were pretty easy to grow , they can allow you to make mistakes and like their parents they don't need much nutrients too thrive but slighly more than the parents. The structure is like a little (verry little) christmas three or it can be a kind of one bud (I had both profiles). The terpénes profile is interesting , you can clearly smell the tropical side like in the Sweet skunk auto , with some hints of citrus and even honey with one of them, really pleasant but nothing really new , it seems that the terpenes are all in the same "line". Not really stealth , they was smelling a bit more than the parents.
The buds looks dense but they are on the average at the end , but they are really easy to trimm as the leaves to bud ratio is low ( low amount of leaves )
***
Super Sweet #1 (see pictures ) - Sweet taste but just sweet , can't really describe the taste , I mean it's clearly taste exotic but exept a hint of citrus I'm not really abble to find a exemple of taste that could fit. I need a 2nd try to be more precise. Clearly stone , the effect is affecting the body more than the 2 others but is less long lasting and don't put you in a sleepy mood , nice for daytime. Well after smoking it 3 time I can't express what I taste with words , it's just sweet/exotic
Super Sweet #2 - The most potent and the better taste. Stone for sure , it makes you a couch potato for 2/3 hours , dry mouth but relaxed and in a good mood. She's the one with the better and most complex taste , between sweet papaya and something spicy when you exhal , a hint of citrus/pineaple. I was only abble to watch a tv show after smoking it but I was focus on the story.
After the 2nd test I had a confirmation from my wife that this weed is a killer, she told me something like : " Hey Rasta, hard day Or hard weed ?" And before I answer she add "Go to bed".
Super Sweet #3 - Taste is .. what it is : woody and sweet ( sweet when you search for it) , nothing really exiting about this one , the smoke is also potent but less than the #2. I will smoke it first to keep the other one cure in jars. Second try : stone but I felt like smoking wood 😒 But thanks to @ChefDan420 I have a good canna-chocolat receipe to try so I'll turn those buds into food (and you can do it too as he nicely wrote the receipe in the comments section 👇👇)
***
The Call of duty test : Well once again I played call of dutty online on Xbox one just after a joint and ... I 1st started to play as usual , I was killing pack of guys ( since the new Black ops release the level and the player's skills on WWII are going down ) but after 30 min It was impossible to keep my eyes open , the motivation was here but my body just switch off until the next morning ( Super sweet #2 ).
Nothing special to report , the girls grew easily but did not provide a good yield but enough for a whole month for me 🙌. The lower stems have been cut later. Nice strain , more potent than the parents , less productive but with various terpénes profiles.
I'm not really sure about it but if I keep the good riddim I'll get my F3 as a christmas gift !
But there are a lot of parameter to consider. I think that i will be able to breed F2 around agust so I'll get my seeds in september , then my last run will provide me the F3. But there will be 2 linage , the 1st one will be a classic breeding style : I'll cross F1 with F1 , F2×F2, F3XF3. The 2nd Linage will be backcrossed to a F1 like this : F1xF1 , F1xF2 , F1×F3. After the 3th gen of each linage I'll maybe cross the 2 linage together or continue the process untill 5th gen and then cross the 2 linage together. My goal is to get a strain that could yield good in 12/12 ( I leave in perpetual a 12/12 area) and that could resist to high humidity around 70% during the whole plant lifetime ( mold resistant).
Every breeders or seeds company are breeding for a straight mid climate but nothing for tropical climate so I try to fill the gap for myself
Gonna need some coconut 🥥 oil, and get chocolate 🍫 bar you like milk, dark, whatever you like - I play with different blends. 60-dark 40 milk. Whatever you like. Easy way to measure is 1 gram bud to 1 oz coconut oil. You’re gonna need a mold also (amazon) Glass bowl to mix with ( I use a 32oz Pyrex mixing cup because the handle makes it easy to pour and it has measurements) Spoon 🥄 to stir with. Oven proof container to Decarb your bud in (put a slight grind on your buds and place in oven 240-290 degrees about 45 minutes). Put buds in coconut 🥥 oil and simmer an hour. Cool & strain. Make a a water bath that you can set your glass bowl into to melt chocolate. Place chocolate in bowl, pour oil over, stir well while in water bath. Place your silicone mold on a platter or something that you can pick up when full of liquid chocolate. If you want, put nuts or whatever you want in mold first then pour chocolate over top. After you have molds full, place in freezer to harden (about 1/2 hr) peel out & enjoy
Kind of high right now but that’s the easiest method on my head. If you’re gonna use 20 grams of buds I would do 2 cups oil .
Good luck 🍀👍🏼 if I forgot something I’ll shoot it to you, am high so is possible 😃
Look at the colas ...... looking very nice in fact, it gotta be a weird smell, looking at their genetics 😵
Good vibessss, expecting a good harvest 😎

@OutForRealbeanCarib, Well everyday we are learning new tricks and techniques, so forget about a bad schedule, sure it is better every run,... what really helped me at the beginning was the knowledge about the nutrients im using (chemistry basics) and staring at the plants to see what are they needs in relation to the stage of development....But yesss with autos the time window is very small, wish you the best with the experiment haha
PS: Yepp mate sure a uplifting song, i remember listen to it when a was younger hahaha.. he was a big guy, songs made with the whole hearth ... My favourite album: Watching Movies With the Sound off... deep message inside
@Ageddd,Thank you mate ! In fact I'm really happy with that strain , the buds are tight and hard ! I think they've got it from the Sweet Skunk auto as she was a big bud producer ! But I'm not expecting a good yiel from them 😩 , my nutrition schedule were lame , the pots are too small and they did not grew verry bushy and I can also see that one of them is almost ready , gotta look at the trichomes ! But it will definitly be one of my better harvest as it will be my 1st Autoflower breeding experiment !
PS: RIP Mac Miller - Kool Aid & Frozen Pizza : My feel good song 🙏
Congrats for all the awards Spinner!!! 😀 😎 hahaha you are the most awarded this month..
You really deserve it mate i can feel the passion you putted here im happy for you, this kind of proyects are awesome, innovation and research together i hope you share with us your future crosses 😵😀
Very detailed schedule all the way, sure this will help a lot of people doing the same experiment .. whats awesome ...
Soooo Take care and always good vibes, keep in touch bro
@OutForReal, Thank you sooo much 😀😁😊 Doctor Spinner hahaha
Fantastic.... I understand... One of my passions too ... ill be following your experiments, really like to do that, maybe next years in my home ^^, so all you get ill be checking it :) 4th gen stab? Cool... Photoperiods, autos or a mix? Lets see what you can get, good luck with it 😋
Ohhh i would love to try them... So in a couple of years we could set up a grow with one of your crosses, when im living in North America ... where are you located mate ?
We need more passionate growers like you Spinner !! 😎👊
Take careee homie 👊✊
@Ageddd,Thank you my friend and Congratulation to you my kilo yielder ( still amazed by your grow 😍 ) for being in the top 3 👊
Thanks for the kind words bro , you'r right growing is my #1 passion after my family life and I try to bring my little touch with my home crosses and hope to make a real serious project next year with at least 4 generation of strain stabilisation 😁 and I hope that one day I'll get a crop like yours 😘
Btw if you wanna try one of my cross one day just message me in the chat and we will set this up 😋
Once again bro your message give me a good vybs and put me in a food mood , see you around homie ✌️😁👊
Dude, you're my weed hero! Made your own genes, documented your harvest music, using video games as part of your review of the stone... you're a fantastic example for all of us!!
@NorCalCloset,🤣😂Thank you my friend, I really appreciate the kind words. I try to experiment home crossing as much as I can : 1st it was more a way to keep a genetic or a part of it without cloning but now it's become more fun each time and I'm starting to think about more serious project. The music is something I need every days so I share a bit of what I'm listening to and you can do the same and I hope other people will share an harvest song with us or a song of a week 😁. And about the video game I notice that it was a simple way to understand the weed effect as it affect the way I play at different levels ✌️🏼😁. Thank you once again bro 😍🔥
@ChefDan420,Sorry for the delay bro . Well both Barbados and Puerto Rico are not far from me but I'm more in the South Caribbean , not far from Trinidad and Tobago. And when it comes to supply well it's pretty hard to get stuff for a fair price here , the local growshop is open every days but these guys are thief : they just multiply the regular prices by x2/x2.5 and they are often out of stock on the basics like PH down 😒. Anyway , Thank to the world wide web I can order for a fair price from many website ✌️🏼
@BigNate89,Hey thank you bro , yes in fact it is tricky when you'r really into it but I'm only a pollen chunker 😂 , next year I'll try a serious project 💪. See ya
@ChefDan420,😁 Thank you chef : the fatty was rolled and blazed 🔥 Just need to make some chocolate ( This week is the good one I can feel it ) 👊✌️😘. Oh and the mojito will come soon 😉
Rough couple weeks for me, had a deficiency to deal with then one of my 💡 lights is sick🤬 That’s life- guess who’s rolling a fatty anyway 👍🏼👍🏼 This guy😃
@ChefDan420,Hey I like you enthusiasm bro so Imma wake & bake in your honor 😊. The deficiencies are not so hard to handle but about the light it's not cool bro , I had a lot of issues in the past that's why I try to always get a replacement light in the house ( even 2 ) and I noticed that the light panels are more sensitive than the old Mh & HID. Less watt consumption but shorter lifetime 😟
Saw your question, did you top again?
I never cut my ladies in flowering, only in veg. Otherwise a decline in yeilds is evident. He wastes time healing instead of developing nugs.
Good luck, and lets see how you do.
@Excalibur,Hey bro , no I just top it once then supercrop her , it's the smallest of them. It was a test and she does the best yield ( best of small yield haha ) , but she also was the most vigorous. And yes I made the mistake to top in flowering , next time I'll do it way sooner 👍👊
Go spinner go! Spin us a web of fat sticky buds. They’re looking decent imo, maybe a little bit of stretch going on with most but topping them will help with that and they’ll look impressive soon
