Welcome to my mimosa x orange punch auto diary. Been looking forward to trying this strain awhile now, was actually going to get this back for my 1st grow, then I started seeing autos and read a bit and was hooked by the promises of nearly the exact same as photos but without the long wait, they are the same, like the same way, a man and woman are the same, as we are both human, they are both weed plants, but completely different in so many ways, autos, are delicate and soft, they need a good hug and kiss before you get down to business, whereas photos, are rough and ready and they get down with pretty much any mistake and can be fixed and don't carry issues/problems through the whole relationship, ( meaning, you can fix issues before you flip, and control the bud you get and even the quality more so) but, hey, once you got autos down, you can get some pretty darn good bud, not as good as photos, but, good nonetheless. Seedling D 1 Plant was left out of light for a few hours while I put my new setup together, scaled it back a bit. Popped it's head up before I could get it under a light, it shot up some after was put under 1. No big thing, just starting out a few cm than she would have if it had been under the light when I started it. My temperature is high atm, was in the 25 range, but in she heat of the day it can be from as low as 25c to 29c with lights on, lights off, not much of a dif as my lights go off at the hottest part of the day just still I can get them all out of seedling stage and I'll adjust to that as we get further along in the winter, lights will go out late at night to bring temps down for terps, (if doing this, be sure not to do it in preflower and its also best to keep temps steady in all stages of veg. SD 4 she seems to be on track. Nice color, decent growth for a seedling. PLANS Will be keeping this grow simple, no topping, no uppotting, just straight LST, light defol, (if at all, and definitely not in veg). Hoping for a nice big ass cola with some side branches, no point in saying I want a certain G from an auto, that isn't up to us. Same way we take our women, we don't control the mood they get in.... but we still take em any way we can get em right! Yeah, gotta love em. And hey, they might even throw some love back your way, in the way of some frosty ass dank bud in 70 days or less. ( I'm not a sexist, just incase I offend any female, not my intention, nothing but love from GGS). Seeding days 5,6 &Veg Day 7. Steady growth this week. Happy overall.. looks a little bright green, but am going to hold off on food for another week. Gave whole crop a cannacure spray on top & bottom of every plant, as I seen 2 mites munching on leafs id taken off hrs before. Funny, that my 1st time finding them, I found 2 on the floor. I scanned through every plant, and couldn't find any. I kilt 1, but the other ran into a pot that had no spill tray. I'm going to lay yellow bug traps and weekly they'll get cannacure. After 20mins it had dried in completely..thought I'd of had to have the light at 25% for a few hrs but put it back up to 75% after 40mins. Thanks to my sponsors from barneysfarm & marshydro led lights.. 2 great reps I dealt with, shout out to them, mad respect COUPON FOR MARSHYDRO SITES Use code GGS for a small discount at any marshydro site

Welcome to my Mimosa X Orange Punch Auto. VD 8-14 Seems my seedling picked up some disease on day 8. Hard to see, but it came up as rust spots, then curling off the leafs. Very weird. As it was no tox. As I noticed on around Day 7 that there was gnats. And if a plant is young enough when it's still weak and prone to picking up stuff like this easier. It seems I got something from the larva. I used h202 6% mix. .5ml/1l. Seems to have worked. Aswel as using a few different things to get rid of fruit flies I used DE (PEST VERSION) & fruit fly traps were layed all about my plants 20 of them, look at diary for tips on how to get rid and avoid infestation, (fungus gnat, fruit fly, larva diary) . 5 days later and they all gone. And she seems to be getting ready to push through make for a nice plant. Will start to apply a light dose of grow in the coming days. Thanks to my sponsors from barneysfarm & marshydro led lights. And to both reps I dealt with, much appreciated. COUPON FOR MARSHYDRO Use code "GGS" for a 3% discount at any marshydro site. FC 3000 & MARSHYDRO LIGHTS The FC 3000 300w it has a high ppfd 1525 umol/s, 2.85 efficacy and has the new UV addition which brings it closer to the (RA) spectrum, that's the Sun spectrum. The FC-FC-E has this, Also it has a much even PPFD making for a more evenly grown canopy and has a deep penetrative light as it allows you to move the light closer to your canopy with a reduced risk of light stress. The TS versions are a great light to. These are different though. As they have a much higher ppfd in the middle, so I suggest you rotate them plants and move em about to get the best out of the high PPFD

Welcome to my mimosa x orange punch auto diary. Veg Days 16-21 plant is doing real nice. I'm not going to even bother will LST. I can tell she's gonna be a shorty and already has a lovely structure. Real healthy. Have been keeping the feeds to a minimum. Had a probably with fungus gnats but they are all gone. And she has fully came out of whatever disease she picked up from the larva. Thanks to my sponsor, (rep) from barneysfarm for supplying me with great products.

Veg Days 21-26 Plant is doing really well. Just about to flip would of like her to me a bit bigger. But, hey wouldn't all men like to have certain things bigger. Lol.. she has taken a lovely shape. And growing funny. The main untapped cola is nearly on par with her side nodes. So, maybe she'll sprout up during pre flower. Pre flower days 1-2 days 27-28. Plant has flipped. I can see little pistils popping everywhere. Haven't touched (defol) nor will I, or should you at this stage. I'm going to turn off my intake fan for 24hrs and see what the the bags can do. Shouldnt hurt much. Thanks to my sponsor (rep), from barneysfarm for supplying me with great products to try. Much appreciated.

Welcome to my Mimosa X orange punch Auto Diary, sponsored my barneysfarm. Pre Flower Days 1-7 Days 29-35 Doing really well. Seems like my cheap CO2 set in explosive growth. I had my exhaust set on a timer... the intake comes on for 5mins out of every hr. I Was running it like that for pre flower days 2 onwards and you can see the growth. Was great. But sadly, my intake failed on me. And nearly destroyed my whole crop. The cheap co2 bags that are meant to last 2 months. Were used up in 1 week. And she had no Co2 additives for 1 day and was left running hot. I should of noticed the smell. But, I was trying to not open my tents as much as possible. I know, I don't have a very high ppfd light. But to save money. I'm running a higher co2 environment so I can grow longer without having to use my dehumidifier and AC. As my electric bill for 2 months was 300+e as opposed to the 170e. So, am going to run a higher co2 environment which, should allow me to get away without running my equipment less. And thus far, is its worked fine. But, missed a few things. And now I've added my live compost and the bioenhancer with the temperature. The soil is picking up diseases from the larva much easier. This plant has pocked up very random leaf spots. And when I scoped them with my 150x scope..I seen microbial life. I don't know what it is. But, exhaust and all set up again. I've sealed my grow up. And added more co2 exhale bags outside the tent, hopefully this will raise the co2 ppm inside the grow room. You have to have temps in 28-30c for these bags to work. They are cheap. I'm going to invest in a bottle system when I have my attic fully converted and sensors and fail safes incase of a valve failure. You have to be very careful when using co2. Its a silent killer. I've order 2 arnet co2 monitors. And am going to hook up a sealed room. With hard exhaust fans. Going to take some time to setup. So for now. My girls will be ran on cheap (but safe) co2 exhale bags. Going to give her 7 more days. And start to do some hard training and a mid defoloate to open up bud sites. Have started her on hybrid powder and coming into this week, she'll be also started on the 0-30-25 NPK bloom booster. For now though. She's doing well. Hopefully I'll sort this disease out. I've dosed her with a 1/5 h202 6%/water 500ml. Sprayed the plant. And then dumped half onto the soil. And sprayed down all others. And did the soil also lighter with same mix. Plants have been confined do the same tents. Trying to minimise the spread of Gnats. I got a new wave with my .75 tiny/rare pot and also has picked up same disease. As I feared. Will report further if anything happens when I update on the next week. Doing all diaries week by week now. So, you are all a week behind in what I have going on. Too many diaries..16, hopefully I'll find my 2-3 strains I'm wanting to max on. At the moment I'm strain hunting. Thanks to my sponsor barneysfarm..marshydro light sadly had to be pult from 4 of these autos. Just until I get things settled back down with gnats.

Welcome to my Mimosa X Orange Punch Auto Diary. PreFlower Days 7-14 Days 36-42 Plant is doing well. Picked up some weird rust spots. Hit a few leafs. But it's gone now thankfully. So, maybe a little to much N. She's just coming out of preflower. Has a height of around 50cm. Could be taller. This not topping autos thing, doesn't seem to be working out to well. But, plants are healthy. And look well. Not very demanding. 1st grow I'm actually getting to grips with Not removing leafs at any stages of veg through to pre flower and beyond. Sadly. My whole transferring grows from tent to tent so they could all get a dose of the FC 3000 isn't working out well for me. Too much cross contamination. Getting rid of gnats is hard when every poxy pot has them. But, they getting smaller, so they have less time to lay eggs. Let's see. Thanks to my sponsor (rep) from barneysfarm.. and also can't forget marshydro who played a part, small but I'm sure it added something.

Welcome to my Mimosa X orange Punch Auto Diary. Plant is doing ok. Still have an issue with rust spots. I think, it's the pot sucking up water from the bottom of the tent. Something is missing, or happening. Veg&pre flower is over. And she is very bushy, has a lot of girt. Very healthy leafs. And she is doing well, other than a few rust spots, that are out of nowhere. Has a very nice structure. Lot of very nice bud sites. Hopefully she'll come together. Seems to be happy under my p1000. Thanks to my sponsor from barneysfarm. (Rep) much appreciated for giving me a great product to test.

Welcome to my Mimosa X orange punch auto diary from barneysfarm. Sorry about gap in wks. Lost my device. So, lots of my growing info i do store was lost. Wks 8-9 went well. Bulked up considerably. She spent the whole of her flowering life under my FC 3000 on a 12/12. Buds seem to be nice and hard. But she was neglected at the end of her life. And was put through a lot of stress on her flush..clearly are hard more to give, and took her from her growth. And, as I wasn't around to watch. Had a friend watering my girls. He messed a few up. But, its all good. I'm hoping whatever are needed was taken from her growth. Her trichomes are fully cloudy. Got no amazing fade or anything. But, hey. That's the way it goes. Just coming into big dips in temp where I live, so will be trying again. She is half way through a 48hr dark rest. And is well be pult tomorrow night. Thanks to my sponsors from Mars Hydro and barneysfarm (reps) for supplying me with great gear much appreciated.
