~ Dutch Passion Auto Think Big ~

~ Auto Think Big®️ by Dutch Passion ~ Think Different XXL selection 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 Think Big is a unique autoflower that originated from our world-famous Auto Think Different. It will therefore not surprise you that in terms of terpenes, this strain shows similarities with our Auto Think Different. Although some Auto Think Big phenotypes may have a similar terpene profile, she is usually slightly different in smell and taste to her parent. In general, Auto Think Big has a fruity, citrus-dominant aroma with mainly floral and sweet notes. She can also smell a bit creamy and pine-like. In terms of taste, she leans most towards citrus, lime and frankincense. When you smoke her in a joint or consume her with a vape, you will immediately taste her fruity sweet flavors. On both the inhale and exhale you can experience a strong citrus taste that reminds you of the zest of a lemon. All in all, a very diverse flavor profile that you just have to try once!" ** "Auto Think Big is a 'one-of-a-kind' autoflower which is known for her large yield in combination with a very compact structure. It is not often that you come across an autoflower that is able to provide you with such thick buds and yields while the plant remains average in height. Literally the whole plant is filled from head to toe with flowers! " ** "Auto Think Big is a highly productive autoflower based on the legendary Auto Think Different genetics. Auto Think Big emerged from a small selection of special XXL Auto Think Different plants chosen from a few hundred plants grown from autoflower seed. These formed the basis for Auto Think Big. The AK420 genetics used in our Auto Think Different make for a stable and potent product." ** "Auto Think Big is easy to grow and her medium size makes her very manageable/controllable without sacrificing yield or potency. Growing this strain is uncomplicated and she knows how to provide you with a generous yield and a pleasant growing experience at all times. The only downside to this variety that we can think of is that you have to wait just a little longer before you can harvest her big resinous buds!" ** "Auto Think Big is one of the most stable autoflowers in the collection, guaranteeing a consistent product and predictable growth. This auto is ideal for both home growers and professionals looking for a bountiful harvest with a compact plant that is very manageable. If you're looking for yields that can easily yield between 1-2g/watt, this is the one for you." ** **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.

Dutch Passion Auto Think Big... Buckle up!🔥 Saying that I'm excited to run this strain would be a huge understatement! I'm very anxious to get these babies in the medium which will be done without any per-soaking. They'll both go directly into the medium 4-5mm deep, get about a shot glass worth of water sprayed on them to get them moist, then have a Solo cup with vent holes in it placed over them until the first true leaves emerge. Today the 15L pots were filled with medium and watered with .75g of de-chlorinated well water that was ph'd to 6.8 @ 75℉ to get the medium moist before the seeds are planted. After filling the pots, they were tagged and placed in the tent on drip saucers. 10/7- Well fam, here we go! Today is three days before the Full Moon (Waxing Gibbous) and I planted each seed in its 15L pot, watered them and covered them with red Solo cups that had vent holes drilled in them. I'm running the HLG 650R at 25% power 24/0 to keep the temperature in the tent running a constant 80℉ with the help of the AC Infinity Cloudline T6 and Controller 67. I set the controller for a 'High Temp' of 80℉ and it does the rest, adjusting the fan speed to maintain the set temperature... pretty sweet! 👍👍 10/10- Today is the Full Moon... Seventy-two hours since being planted in their medium and, just like magic, there is life! They BOTH broke ground mid morning...100% germination! 😍👍 Both are doing well and I'll just maintain their moisture levels for now. 10/12- Well both girls are doing great! Their color and vigor are on point and I'm basically making sure their medium doesn't dry out. I went ahead and set the TrolMaster Hydro X light controller to a 20/4 cycle with a 15min Sunrise/Sunset added. The HLG 650R remains at 25% power for now and I have not started to supplement co2 in the tent. Tent temperatures remain a constant 80℉ and I'm keeping the clear Solo cups over them to act as humidomes until they're at least a week old, then I'll pull the cups and set the humidifier in the tent to 65-70%" RH for them. 10-13- The Solo cups came off today! I fired up the humidifier in the tent and set it to maintain a RH in the tent of 65-70% at this time. Tent temp's remain a constant 80℉. Well, there's a week gone by since these ladies were nestled in their medium... Week Two here we come! 😎👍 ~ Thank you so very much for following along on this grow... May all your days and grows be Blessed! 😎🙏❤️ ~
