Jackie is continuing with the ripening nutrients for another week, and then we start the flush. But she still has a few weeks to go.
As usual, Jackie is the delight in my garden! The smallest, yet most beautiful plant that I’m currently growing. I wish I could find a way to cool my tent down at night in order to give her trichomes a chance to start costing her leaves and buds a little more, but as of right now I’m stumped on how to do that with what I currently have. 🤷♂️ Oh well.
Jackie received the 2nd half of the gallon I prepared for her the other day. Since this is a new week, I’ll list them for you.
CALiMAGic - 2 ml
FloraMicro - 5 ml
FloraBloom - 15 ml
Floralicious Plus - 1 ml
Dry KoolBloom - 0.5 tsp
The pH was adjusted from an initial 5.2 to 6.2 by adding 12 ml’s of pH UP.
She gave back sufficient runoff with a pH of 5.4, which is lower than I’d like to see, but she still looks very healthy and smells absolutely divine!
Her tent was 83.7F, with humidity at 54%.
Jackie is a gem! Happy growing everyone!

Jackie is about half way through the second week of ripening nutrients, and is quickly approaching the flush. I can’t wait! The flush is like seeing the finish line in the distance.
I mixed up a fresh gallon of water with the nutrients today with the intent on giving her half now, half in a couple of days as usual. She received the same level of nutrients as the other day, so I won’t list them again here.
The initial pH of the mixed gallon was 5.4. I added 12 ml of pH UP which adjusted the pH to 6.4.
She gave me plenty of runoff with a pH of 5.5. I wish it were higher, but it is what it is.
She looks and smells great, and today I took some pics of her trichomes for your viewing pleasure.
The tent was 82.2F, and the humidity was 58%.
Just a little while longer. Happy growing everyone!

Hello fellow growers! Hopefully all of you are having a wonderful time in your gardens cultivating some of the best home grown marijuana in the world! I know I am.
Today Jackie received the second half of the gallon of water mixed with ripening nutrients from the other day. She took it well, and gave back a bunch of runoff for measuring.
The solutions pH going in was 6.4, and the runoff pH was a whole point less at 5.4.
The tent was 80.6F, with a humidity level of 55%.
I took a few more pics of her trichomes today for your viewing pleasure. In my opinion she still has a few weeks to go according to how they’re looking to me. Luckily, that’s how much time is left till harvest.
Lucky me! No problems, no complaints, no issues. She continues to be a gem!
Happy growing everyone!

Today is the last day of week 10 for dear Jackie. Per Exotic Seed, Sir Jack Auto should only take 12 weeks from seed to harvest. I learned from a previous grow to trust the seed bank whenever they post such information on their own products.
So; Jackie received her last drop of nutrients today because the next step is the FLUSH!!
I actually had to do a little Low Stress Training (LST) on her today. I was surprised, but also very pleased. The reason for the LST was due to 3 of her branches getting so weighed down with bud that they started to bend down, away from the middle of the plant.
Fat buds = heavy branches! I just used some of the malleable, rubber coated wound wire to go around the branches and tie them around the center stalk of the plant.
Look at the pics I posted today. The pic of Jackie with her label showing (front) shows no evidence of the LST. However, the pic with the view of her back shows 2 of the 3 adjustments.
Her buds have gotten noticeably bigger, and some color is starting to change, but nothing drastic.
Today she received a half gallon of water I mixed fresh for her last nutrient feeding. She received:
FloraMicro - 5 ml
FloraBloom - 15 ml
Floralicious Plus - 1 ml
Dry KoolBloom - 0.5 tsp
Initial pH was 5.4. I added 12 ml of pH UP which adjusted it to 6.3. Runoff was excellent with a pH if 5.5.
Her tent was 82.6F, and humidity was 61%.
Jackie looks great, smells great, and is still the gem 💎 in my garden. Happy growing everyone!
@Exotic_Seed,
I’ve been trying to contact you, but my attempts have gone unanswered. Please let me know how and where you would like me to contact you.
@Exotic_Seed,
Thank you for checking back in. I always wondered how other growers diaries were “approved by” the seed bank.
I guess one just needs to do a good job and the rest handles itself. I’m glad that you all approve.
Stay tuned though! My next grow season is going to be:
Strawberry Cola - auto &
Purple Monkey - auto.
