This is the Strawberry Cheesecake Auto grow diary. I planted the seeds in rapid rooter cubes and watered with Clonex and Great White. 3/3 so I'm very happy though I have had good luck with Seedsman seeds! One of them is super stretchy and feel over so I put a brace to hold it up.
The Strawberry Cheesecake Autos continue to grow and the real leaves are starting to form. Excited to see all 3 starting to get real leaves. Temps are getting lower but I do have it on a heating mat.
Just transplanted them into 3 Gal fabric pots which will be their final pot and water them in. They were getting way too big for the cubes and now should have plenty of nutrients as they were transplanted into Foxfarm Happy Frog soil. Sprinkled Great White on the roots and the area I planted them.
They continue to grow well. I ended up topping Strawberry Cheesecake #2 as it was getting too tall compared to the other plants. Once Strawberry Cheesecake #3 gets a bit taller I will top it as well.
All 3 of the Strawberry Cheesecake autos are in flower. The two on the right were topped and are responding well. I ended up turning up the light a bit as the nodes are more spaced than I would like but the stretch continues.
Gave them their first feeding. The one in the middle got a full dose while the other two got 75% doses as Autos tend to be more finicky about feeding too much nutrients. Temps are drooping in the lung room hoping they stabilize at a low of 60 degrees.
I think I over fed them last week and you can see the leaves starting to burn. Hopefully it won't end up being too bad but thats just one of the things about Autos. Overall they continue to flower and get frosty.
The Strawberry Cheesecake continue to fade and got their last feeding. From here on out its just water and sweet. The leaves on them got pretty burned up. I'm still trying to dial in the feeding schedule for Autos.
I'm looking forward to finally being able to try this strain. It grew well but I waited too long to transplant from the cube to the 1 gal pot which limited their growth. Still ended up with some frosty bud!
Hey, what happened here, friend? Did you start the flush to early or was it the heat or something else? Just wondering so I don't make the same mistake.
Hopefully you will get a nice smoke from these even tho the troubles at the end. Don't forget to update after harvest!
Best of luck!
@Nomorebush, I would say there were two main mistakes. First I kept them in the cubes for too long before transplanting into the 1 gal pots. This kept them on the smaller side and caused me to top closer to the beginning of flower than I would have liked. The other one is I underfed them. My last Auto grows I ended up over feeding them and went too far in the other direction with this grow. For feeding I'm planning on using a PPM pen for my next grow so hopefully I won't have so many nutrient issues. It won't be the prettiest weed but I'm still looking forward to trying the strain once its done curing.
