Well hear we go again with the autos while we veg out something else. Anyway, 4 Gas Reaper genetics Chem Mintz...we shall see...we went with 1 gallon pots this time because we've had luck pulling 2+ Os off them before... I'll run these for 3 weeks then add Gaia Green (70/30 mix) along with Fox Farm's Flower Trio according to their instructions. Watering will be aspirated tap water, PhD accordingly and we'll be adding black strap molasses this grow as well... Excited to see if these are stable as they claim insane density. Again, we shall see!!!

So far so good, look at that growth in 10 days...crazy part is there is always 1 that tries to "take off"... Going to run Gold Leaf Nutrients with Gaia Green 2-8-4 on this run. Happy with what we're seeing. We also moved these into the 5x10 under the fc8000 with one side off (5x5)... We like what we're seeing so far and have to mention; we chose 1 gallon pots or this run because during the last Bubble Runtz in 5 gallon run we ran 4 along with them in 1 gallon pots and yielded over 50 gs on each of them...close enough to 2 oz. that "I" want "us" more dialed in to see better results, if not we have plenty of 5s, 7s and 10s lying around now for the next run.

Apologies: skipped a week due to shift change at work. Not a lot to say: rushed feeding during week 3 and ended up with some nute burn in the lower leafs, but it hasn't slowed them down at all... 2 ml Gold Leaf was added at week 3; will not add again until I see flower starting. Debating hard if I'm going to run Gaia 2-8-4 along with it... Getting roughly 1 solo cup or 12oz of water every 24-36 hours...when the pot is light!!! We'll see

Major growth this week, you can see the yellowing from introducing Gold Leaf too early...but they bounced back nicely... Added 2 ml per gal of gold leaf this week and watered at 6.0 ph otherwise... We're closing week 5 and the smell is ridiculous inside the tent. I'll be looking into a 2x4 to dry in because last harvest stank my closet up...it still ot gone...🤣🤣 But anyway, thanks for looking...stay tuned to see what these 4 produce... Oh yea, I'm under a Mars Hydro FC8000 and these plants at 5 weeks are some of my largest to date...not saying they'll get much larger I understand the limitations of 1 gall pots however they are larger than any other plant I've grown in 1 gallon pots and I play this game all the time, so....needles to say I think Gas Reaper + Mars Hydro for the win!!!

Cut back on Gold Leaf; I cannot dial it in like others....thats all I'll say for now. Plants look alright; we'll see over the next 2-3 weeks. I'll start posting trich pics with the next up date.

Apologies; this grow had been on 18/6 for its entirety... Anyway, this week we did some defoliation of dried leaves and trimmed out some lower bud sites. It seems that Gold leaf burns these autos up...I'm going to run it out this run then I'm 100% going back to Gaia Green. So far my experience with Gas Reaper; they are small...end of story... Before anyone lags me about pot size; I also included a side by side from another cultivar...these plants have had the same exact regimens of water, feed and light...so judge for yourself... That being said the plants are fire as f@ck and the smell is serious when my tent is open. At this point im guessing we have 2 more weeks and I'm hopeful that these buds will fatten up because they look small and feel sponge like... Plotting my next auto run which might just be 2 Mendo2020 Trix and 2 Forum Stompers from Mephisto... Pretty excited to see what happens...

Water only this week and next... We're closing out soon; these trichs milky and I suspect this week they'll start to amber up...either way, this run is coming to an end very soon... Thoughts on Gas Reaper; I'll run them in 5 gallon pots next to see if I may have stunted them in 1 gallon...however I showed in last week's pictures the size difference between these and another cultivar and I simply think it's genetics in this case. With that being said these are fire 🔥 for sure. 1 odd ball out of the 4 and its beautiful!!! My take on Gold Leaf: it feeds the plants...but it burned my autos up. I'll try it again on another run, but I really like Gaia Green results...end of story!!!

So, we'll ride 1 more week...see what they do... Been straight water for the past 1.5 weeks... Definitely not in a rush and continuing to following trichs...but density is another thing...1 plant out of the 4 has the density I am looking for; we'll let them ride and see if they harden up any, but in my experience they won't. Gas Reaper smell is intense to say the least!!! I've decided that this will be my last run in 1 gallon pots even though I love the easiness of using them, they yeild even across 4 isn't worth the time I'm spending doing them. In all reality there are 14 other autos of Cookies growing in this same space 🤦‍♂️🏻🤷‍♂️🏻...we won't be doing this again... Next auto run is plotted out and will be ran in 10s (out of curiosity). Mendo 2020 Triskits x4; not going to run Mephisto this go...😔

Smell is intense...will revisit this discussion during smoke review. Overall 10 of 10 on everything besides size and that's just how it is...grew a Cookies strain with these and it dwarfed them in comparison...but Gas Reapper Chem Mintz are 🔥🔥

This grow was interesting to say the least; the last week or so these buds really packed on density. The smell is intense... Overall, I'm impressed. From past harvests I can comfortably guess there will be close to 150gs total dried from all 4 plants. The size and structure could be genetics as I addressed in a previous week. However, after more research regarding the use of Gold Leaf since I literally used this grow just to try Gold Leaf; I'm not done with this fertilizer at all...after some digging I came across their feed chart for autos and I will be running it with Gaia Green on my next run.

I don't think you will be disappointed. I pulled 4+ ounces off of a frozen runtz auto. I stunted the others but mint macaron, trop slices and roadkill were pretty damn good. Good luck!

Very nice! I have a pack of these and excited to grow out. Everything I have grown from Gas Reaper has been extremely frosty! I enjoy 1 gallon pot of soil autos myself! Pulling 1.5-4 oz and using much less soil and nutrients than 3-5 gal and I am able to squeeze more variety. Good luck with the rest of grow!
