Took 1 day for the seed to crack open with a small root. From there I poor it in the soil and a couple days later (Saturday august 12th) it popped through the soil
I’ve only watered very little bit so far so good. Was in the soil planted within a day. A few days later it popped throough. This is a week since it sprouted through the soil.
Was out of town the past three days and while I was gone this Watermelon auto was very thirsty. Luckily it wasn’t completely dry one I got home but definitely noticed some good growth this past week. As you can see in some of the pictures I’ve continued to LST to promote lower branches to grow even with the main.
This watermelon auto saw some major stretching and growth this past week. I see preflowers so the growth makes sense. Looking forward to seeing the flowers develop
Added Happy Frog Fruit and flower to the soil. Put about a 1/4 cup of it and mixed it in the top few inches of the soil. Then watered with ph’d water. Have seen some good growth the first full week of flowering.
Moved this one inside of the tent where the higher quality light is. The lemon shining silver haze plant that I had in there was moved out to finish its last couple weeks of flowering outside of the tent where the watermelon auto was.
Using the trellis for future branch support as well as to spread the branches out, which has done well so far.
Everything looks good to me for now. Let’s hope the flowers come in full. Looking forward to the next few weeks. Also excited to see how the Lemon shining silver Haze that I just moved to the tent does as well. That clone I took from my first batch that I harvested back at the end of August. I started the clone back in late June. So I’ll be happy to see how those buds fill out. The flower already smells like the mother plants buds which is exciting.
Buds are looking good. Hoping they start to get fat. Not smelling as much anymore though which has sparked my curiosity. Other than that it’s been business as usual
Another week down and the buds are starting to get dense. Probably will start feeding with just PH’d water to flush. I’d imagine I’m a few weeks away from harvest.
Pretty much just feeding her ph’d water from here on out. Curious as to when these will be ready. The flowers are definitely getting denser. Although, the smell has weakened a bit on the plant on the left side. Not sure if that’s normal with this strain or not. Still looks great and I’m excited for the harvest!
I’m curious as to how my judgement is when it comes to trichomes revealing that the plant is ready for harvest. Based on my photos, I would say I’m just about there? Most of them look cloudy white but I know it’s best to leave until you see a few almond colored ones mixed in too?
Not easy to see anything with your photos, sorry. But I think you're almost good for harvest.
Trichomes turn amber when the THC inside degraded into CBN. But, if you want to save a few days, you can achieve that after harvest with heat and UV.
That's not foxtailing Roberts. It's more like a slight excess of nitrogen that pushes the plant to continue flowering.
Foxtail is a genetic issue when the calyxes grow one on top of the other, instead of forming buds.
Not a very strong smell until you break it up. The. You can smell the strong wave of sweet fruit. The smoke is smooth and the high is upbeat and pleasant.
Totally forgot to get the total wet weight. They’ve been drying for 4 days and the RH has been between 50-55% and the temp in the 65-73 degrees F. All in all a fun one to grow. Now the attention is focused on the Sour Diesel and Nana Glue
@SmokinToney9, me gusta tu técnica
Yo hago algo parecido, poniendo un suelo vivo y con muchos nutrientes en los dos tercios inferiores, y en el tercio superior pongo solo sustrato tipo Light Mix
@nonick123, bottom half I put Fox Farm Ocean forest (to allow the plant to developed before it feeds off the very rich Ocean forest soil)
Top half is Coco Loco. Very airy soil that’s not as strong as the FF Ocean Forest which will help the roots develop early. I’ll give it more water around the whole container once it’s a little more mature 😁
