~ Dutch Passion Auto Lemon Kix ~

~ Auto Lemon Kix®️ by Dutch Passion ~ Las Vegas Lemon Skunk Autoflower Well friends, here we go on another 'canna-venture' together cultivating Dutch Passion's Autoflowering version of their outstanding Skywalker Haze along with three other incredible autoflowers from Dutch Passion that I'm running separately, so buckle up and hold on! This will be a wild ride for sure! I've wanted to grow this strain for some time now and finally have an opportunity to see what I can do with it, and I've germinated two so double the fun! "Auto Lemon Kix is the strain of choice if you are looking for the fruitiest aroma in an autoflower with a high THC content. These sativa dominant autoflower seeds provide a complex fragrance and taste that is simply hard to match. The buds are bursting with terpenes - the compounds which produce the deep aroma and tasty flavors in cannabis. They are also loaded with THC-rich trichomes. It is a very potent autoflower that produces beautiful light green, white buds with a thick sticky layer of resin that smells and tastes incredibly fruity. It can best be described as a sweet mix of tropical fruit and lemon, very penetrating and tasty!" ** "Auto Lemon Kix has one of the most complex and fruity flavor profiles in our autoflower seed collection. You can smell a certain sweet, fruity fragrance reminiscent of a well-known USA brand of small, colorful candies. Expect a rich attractive fruity/skunky scent, a citrus-like taste and a very powerful, long-lasting euphoric high." ** "Auto Lemon Kix is an autoflower with a slightly longer seed-to-harvest cycle than average. It will take about 12 weeks before she is ready to harvest. In non-ideal culture conditions, this phase can be delayed by around 1-2 weeks." "We advise you to grow her in soil/compost with organic food for the tastiest end result. The organic food and soil bring out the best in her and provide you with extremely fruity buds that will continue to amaze you time and time again! For optimum results it’s important to wait until she is ripe enough. Try not to harvest her too early because it is precisely in those last weeks that her potency and taste profile rise to extreme heights!" ** **Credit- Dutch Passion.com ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ ~THE SETUP~ ~ Grown in 15L Gronest geotextile pots filled with Mother Earth Grow 70/30 Coco/Perlite with Xtreme Gardening Mykos added. ~ Seeds were germinated directly in the medium without any 'pre-soak' ~ Seeds were planted three days before the Full Moon (Waning Gibbons) and sprouted within 72hrs, on the Full Moon. ~ Feeding will be by Lotus Nutrients (first time using) ~ 24hr light cycle while germinating ~ 20/4 light cycle after first leaves appear. ~ 4x8 Gorilla Tent ~ HLG 650R w/ 30w Supplemental UVA Bar controlled by a Trolmaster Hydro X controller set for a 15min Sunrise/Sunset simulation.

Week Eight of flower's here and these gorgeous ladies will be finishing up shortly! I let both dry out today and just turned their pots.... damn they look sweet! 12/25- ❄️🎄🎅 MERRY CHRISTMAS FAM! 🎅🎄❄️ Both plants are looking great with both finished and ready to go dark for 72 hours before being chopped and hung. Today they were both watered both to runoff with 73℉ well water that has a base 100ppm which I ph'd to 6.5. Four hours after watering them, I put the #2 in the dark for 72 hours to finish up before being chopped and hung to dry and begin the curing process! I keep the room where they're in the dark at 60-62℉ with a RH running 35-38%. I also have fans gently circulating the air. I'll check them once a day until they're done... then the fun begins!!! 🤪❤️ 12/26- Today I checked the #1 and she looked good to go! Eight hours after 'lights on' I placed her with the #2 in the dark for 72 hours. 12/28- The two Lemon Kix auto's were done their 72 hours in 'Dark Jail' where I kept the temperature @ 60℉ and the RH @ 38%. Both girls look fantastic and I couldn't help but snap a couple of impromptu pic's before they were chopped and hung. I divided the #1 into three sections which were hung to dry. I decided to go ahead and hang the #2 whole, because of her wide node spacing I see no issues with air circulation around her flowers. I have the room I use for drying setup with a humidifier/de-humidifier along with temperature control. I'm keeping the temperature at 56-58℉ and the RH @ 50% for the first 24hrs, then I'll set it to 60% for the remainder of the drying period which should hopefully take 10-12 days but I'm fighting really low atmospheric RH so they may only take 8-10 days... the longer, the better! This grow has been so much fun and all the comments, support and ❤️that I've received have left me without any words except... Thank you from the bottom of my heart!💓 See you at the harvest report!!! 😎🤙❤️ ~ Thank you so very much for following along on this grow... 💚what you grow, Grow what you 💚! ~
