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 😲)

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! 👍

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

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 😘

Happy Harvest Day!
Sweet Skunk Auto X Super Cheese Express - Custom Breeder & Strain
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.
