-3/5/23 Diary Start
-3/5/23
--foreword: this is 1 of 4 auto flower plant started at the same time. This is the first time I have tried growing auto flower cannabis.
--Soil: used reclame soil form previous plants mixed with more worm casting and perlite, the Buildasoil Craft Blend and buildabloom was used as soil amendments.
--put into soil about a centimeter or two under surface, tried to get it in the middle of the pot. Soil received about a letter of water before inserting seed and then a light misting of the top.
-3/8/23 Well I put cover crop in the soil and it has started growing, making weird fluffy pockets under the surface. Also I feel like its going to make it hard to tell when the cannabis seed starts sprouting.
-3/9/23 watered the top with about 10 oz. cover crop is growing faster than expected and is making it hard to identify the cannabis seedling, if it has even sprouted yet.
-3/11/23 still can't tell if the cannabis seed has sprouted, cover crop is doing well. Will keep checking every day and when I can see the cannabis seedling I will start week one.
-3/13/23 still cant spot the cannabis, sprayed with just enough water to make the top layer of soil most.
-3/17/23 well still couldn't spot the cannabis seed sprouting. Removed the cover crop that was growing in the center and added new soil, then new seed of the same type was added. Sprayed the surface with water and put back under the light.
-3/21/23 may have spotted the cannabis sprouting, will have to wait a few days to confirm.
-3/22/23 located a seedling near the center that looks darker than the rest. This could be the one, will check again tomorrow.
-3/23/23 the seedling that was in question yesterday was in fact the cannabis, cover crop seedlings around it were pulled to give space.
-3/25/23 looking good and growing fast, spade leaves are coming in nicely and should have its first shade leaves my the end of next week. Tomorrow will be the start of week 1, will start LST around week 3 or 4.
-3/25/23 Week End
-3/26/23 Week Start
-3/29/23 looking like a good start, starting to grow its first set of shade leaves.
-4/1/23 doing better than the other two auto flower plants that were started at the same time, looks healthy and growing well. first set of shade leaves are growing at a good rate, soon enough it will start growing the next set.
-4/1/23 Week End
-4/2/23 Week Start
-4/4/34 still looking great and growing quick. Chop and dropped the cover crop, also watered and sprayed.
-4/8/23 second set of shade leaves coming in quick, only sprayed and not watered. Better pics tomorrow.
-4/8/23 Week End
-4/9/34 Week Start
-4/9/23 first branch nodes are starting to form, will start training soon.
-4/10/23 started LST today because the branch nodes are big enough. I want the branches to grow vertically and fast, tis a race now.
-4/12/23 added more tie downs and the branches have already changes direction
-4/15/23 doping good with training and might try getting it to go around the pot, well as far as I can.
-4/15/23 Week End
-4/16/23 Week Start
--week 1 flower
-4/19/23 removed two shade leaves yesterday and another today. Taking to training vary well, seen that it has started making pre-flower nodes.
-4/22/23 coming along nicely and pre-flower is looking good
-4/22/23
-4/23/23 Week Start
--week 2 flower
-4/24/23 hope to get at least a half once of this plant.
-4/29/23 good pre-flower going now, hairs turning orange
-4/29/23 Week End
-4/30/23 Week Start
--week 3 flower
-5/6/23 pre-flower coming along nicely, removed a few shade leaves this week. No smell yet but will most likely gain it during next week, hope that it ends up smelling like strawberries.
-5/6/23 Week End
-5/7/23 Week Start
-week 4 flower
-5/13/23 starting to form some calyxes but still doesn't have mush of a sent. Moved a guider from main stem to a secondary branch, secondary branch needed to relocate.
-5/13/13 Week End
-5/14/23 Week Start
--week 5 flower
-5/20/23 not much going on this week. Misted with water a few times, and added molasses to watering.
-5/20/23 Week End
-5/21/23 Week Start
-week 6 flower
-2/26/23 did a heavy defoliation because of aphid problems, should be ready to harvest in like 2 weeks.
-5/27/23 hasn't skipped a beat after removal of a lot of the shade leaves, should give about a half ounce or more after cure. Smells like glue and is sticky like it too.
-5/27/23 Week End
-5/28/23 Week Start
--week 7 flower
-6/3/23 still having aphid problem, will try to eliminate them before harvest. Smells like glue, starting to get frosty.
-6/3/23 Week End
6/17/23 done with this plant, will be harvesting tomorrow. Smells like glue, no berry or fruit scent. Maybe the next time I grow this it will do better.
Didn't get vary big and doesn't look like a lot for harvest, but that could have been do to grower error. Will be growing again in the future, hopefully with better results.
-7/2/23 harvested. started hang dry, will check in 5 days to see if it's ready for trimming. Wet weight is a guess because I didn't have scale to check it.
@UnorthadoxDude, well the only reason I said that is because the one auto that accidentally got topped is starting to look like it might end up with a greater harvest than the extreme LST. Also the auto that im using as my control group plant looks like it might have a better harvest as well but its hard to tell as of right now because all three started flowering at different times.
@Jimmy_Jankens, I have had, and continue to have, really good results with extreme LST on auto-flowers. Check out "Nesia", "Misty", and especially "Poppy". I think it's all about timing.
@UnorthadoxDude,
-Tip #2: the extreme bend and extend may not be the best way to grow auto-flower plants, check my other two auto-flower diaries that im doing for comparison (watermelon zkitles, G.D.P. Gumberry)
Heyy,
Thanks a bunch for growing our genetics, and sharing this diary with us!
We hope that it was a nice experience
Have a good one, and happy harvest :)
@Fast_Buds, sorry that its not a vary good representation of what this cultivar could achieve, this was one of the first autos I have ever grown. Next time should be bigger and better because I learned what not to do during the life of this plant.
