>>>>UPDATE 3 (Seeds are in there final 7 gallon pots) Days 6<<<<<
Gave them a little Recharge and Voodoo Juice to help with the transplant.
They are all looking very happy in the grow room under the lights.
>>>>UPDATE 2 (Seeds are in XL Jiffy pellets Days 0-3<<<<<
Wow they all sprouted perfectly at the same time. With my seedling mat under sweater trick, I maintained 75-81f perfectly 😁. I'm going too transfer them into there pots soon and I will be back with more pictures soon.
>>>>UPDATE 1 (Seeds are on plate in photos)<<<<<
They soaked with distilled water (6.3Ph) for 20 Hours.
Then I drained them on to a plate with paper a towel on it and placed a second paper towel on top.
Then covered it with a second plate then placed on seedling heat mat for 20 hours.
Mine was trying to get too hot. I had to be careful so I placed a sweater in between, now it stays about 80f.
Worked like a charm 100% germination rate. 👊
I just put them into XL Jiffy pellets. I will get pictures once they sprout.
<<<<End Updates>>>>
Well I'm back at it again with even more Incredible Bulk Autos. I guess I just cant get enough.
I just started soaking the 6 seeds. I got the pots mixed up yesterday.
The top half of the pots are 70% Happy Frog 30% perlite with 2 medium sized cups of compost added.
The bottom half of the pots are 80% coco coir and 20% perlite with 2 medium sized cups of compost added also.
Then I flushed every pot with 5 gallons of tap water PH to 5.9-6.1
I have never grown this many Bulks at once. I'm guessing this will get bushy really fast, I'm excited already.
I got there new drip system installed, I took a video of it finishing out 3 gallons to the 6. They are all very healthy and growing really fast. It has been hot but they are absolutely unphased. I just have to water just about every day.
I'm letting them feed off the soil and only giving them enhancers. Hopefully I'm laying the foundation for a big harvest.
I will be starting them on Sensi Bloom A and B at small dose soon.
One of my White Widow XXL Autos died so that opened a spot for an extra IB.
Shes just getting above ground and no issues to report.
Winter is finally here and cold weather is here. It was a hot summer and its awesome how my plants pulled threw.
Temps have come down to perfect levels this week and it shows.
Nice amounts of growth. I have just been trying to keep them happy and not over do anything.
They have had a good Wet/Dry water cycle to promote root growth.
I hope they all grow alot the in next week.
I underestimated the strength of that Floralicious Plus. I'm pretty sure I gave them to much. I got a little bit of burnt tips on most of them but I corrected it the moment I noticed.
The lesson of the day is...... I must be more cautious when I introducing new nutrients. Also I think the combo of nutrients was too much.
But don't forget these are the almost unkillable Incredible Bulk Auto genetics we are talking about.
They have grown alot this week, They really need some LST love, so that's what they are going to get very soon.
This is an awesome grow and it makes me happy and warm when I think about these girls.
Incredible Bulk Auto has a Monster pheno that goes for about 85-120 days that produces a crap tun of buds (10oz or more). I hope I can hit the jackpot on 1 or 2 of these girls. That would make me happy.
All these girls are looking amazing. They took very well too the LST I gave them earlier in the week. They have nice thick branches and are already starting to smell. Some are smaller then the others but that's too be expected. Flowering started on about day 30 for the 6. The 7th is going to get some LST very soon.
They are getting watered every 1-3 days up too 1.5 gallons if necessary depending if they need it. I am also making sure they get a chance a too dry up a little, not too much tho. I'm still keeping there NPK levels low and just giving them a little push. Some are drinking more then others.
I have been keeping the temperatures very cool inside by pulling in cold outside air. It was 70-74 on the leafs earlier when I checked when with a temperature gun. They seem to prefer it cooler like this. I'm sure the fresh air is nice.
I checked with a Watt Meter Electricity Usage Monitor and I am pulling 1280 watts of led power for these 7 girls. That is 182 watts per plant.
Day 43 Update. Well the tall girl stretched past my lights maximum height. So I LST her main branch. See the first 2 pictures. 😀
Its very hard to capture there true beauty with just pictures so I took a video. So give it a watch.
Well they exploded this week. The big one doubled her size and I had to move her down too the bottom level because she pushed her LED light out of her way to grow past it. Other ones only gained 5-10 inches. Very happy with these girls. 5 of them got defoliated, the other 2 didn't really need it.
I was able to give the 6 bigger girls 2 shots of Bud Igniter before I ran out. I will have to get some more when I have the money.
However I did just get Nirvana at the beginning of the week and they seem to love it. I'm still being careful I don't want to over feed them.
The 7th one is still in veg at day 28. She got LST and defoliated 2 days ago but now you can hardly tell. I don't think she has even started stretching yet. She could be massive.
They are being watered/feed every 1-2 days now.
These girls are looking great. I lowered the lights down right on them. Don't forget that the bottom half of there soil is 80% coco coir and 20% perlite... I am pretty much treating them like a coco grow at this point so they are getting nutrients every day. Buds are going to swell quick, bet they will double in size in the next week.
I have a few rust spots on the leafs but that's normal for Incredible Bulk Autos in flower. I have added some Sensi Cal-Mag Extra to help and raised the ppm to 420-450.
I had to bend the tall Sativa girl over because she grew too tall. She recovered without issues.
Went ahead and numbered them all.
I checked them earlier in the week and they looked a little pale green so I upped there nutrients to around 800-900 ppm and they seem to love it.
They getting Sensi Cal-mag with every feeding to help with the rust spots on there leafs. Other then that no issues to report. They going threw a lot of water, 1-2 gallon a plant every day.
The bud sites are growing bigger and and more sticky everyday. I can practically watch them fatten up and they are starting smelling really good.
P7 is getting massive. She has 240 true watts on her, I'm not sure how much more she will stretch but I went ahead and LST her main stem. I can swap her with a smaller girl if she outgrows her corner.
I'm thinking I will defoliate her lower area tomorrow.
Well these girls are really starting to hulk out. Buds are really stacking and smelling very exotic.
They have been pretty hungry. I hit 880 ppm in there tank early in the week but I have slacked off on nitrogen so no more Floralicious Plus and I lowered all my nutrients later in the week to 650ppm
I will give them some more time to swell before I switch too Overdrive. This could be a pretty massive harvest.
I have been getting alot of condensation in the grow room and its sending my humidity threw the roof.
I have a humidifier and it bring it too 60-70% on full blast. I'm sure these girls can handle it.
I do need to be careful and not touch the buds so I don't contaminate them. Lets hope I can avoid bud rot.
They are swelling up pretty nicely and hairs are starting too turn colors finally.
I switched #1-6 from Big Bud too Overdrive on day 64 and I moved a few of them around to get them more comfortable.
Looking to harvest sooner rather then later because humidity is 50-70%... I normally have good judgment and harvest right when they are ready and avoid mold/rot.
I plan too start flushing on about day 70ish. I shouldn't need too flush them for very long because only half there pot is soil.
I will get pre harvest pictures for sure maybe even videos.
