9/14 - 9/17
Third time is the charm as they say. This is my third attempt at growing an auto that is bigger than a foot tall. This time I am putting the seed right into it's final home, a 7 gallon AC Infinity fabric pot. This time I'm growing a freebie I got a couple months ago from Multiverse Beans. Iced Latte Auto from Mutant Genetics. It sounds pretty tasty so hopefully she matches the name. I germinated by doing a 1% hydrogen peroxide solution soaked paper towel and letting it sit for a few days. It germinated fine and went right into the pot after 4 days in the container.
9/17 - 9/23
Day 1 - 7 of veg
First week of veg for the auto grow. I used an AC Infinity 7 gallon fabric pot filled with mostly BuildASoil 3.0 but a small spot where the seed is planted with Light recipe. I put some Dynomyco right into the hole for the seed and then watered with both Rootwise and Quillaja extract to help with soaking and mycorrhizal inoculation. I also planted some cover crop around the seed.

Growing along good this week. Cover crop is getting nice and full. I will probably start training it towards the end of next week.

Not much this week, finally starting to pick up in growth speed. I gave her a minor feeding this week just because. She still isn't tall enough for me to train this week so maybe next week I'll start the lst.

This looks like it's the last week of veg. I started to bend it over with a stake to help get those lowers some more light and hopefully get a decent plant.

I'm going to start counting day one of flower as the 15th. She is stretching a little bit doesn't look like she is going to get that big. So far though I'm liking how this auto is doing and is definitely my best one yet.

Flowers continuing to grow this week, did a full feeding of power bloom this week. I may do one more towards the end but we'll see what the plant wants.

She really packing weight this week. Took the feeding well too with only slight tip burn. I'll probably hold off on feeding, she'll probably ride it out fine as is. As for smell, it is very sweet and is almost like red pez candy? Very strange but very pleasant.

Same stuff as last week pretty much. Smell is morphing into a skittle smell almost now. Unfortunately I didn't have much time to take many pictures this week though.

One more week left and she smells great, very sweet and fruity but more like artificial fruit in candy flavors, maybe like a cherry strawberry mix.
11/19 - 11/24
Day 36 - 41 of flower
This was the last week of the grow. I experimented with a little water stress this week and didn't water it at all to see if it helps at all. No clue if it did but I'll probably keep doing this with my other grows. She smells amazing though and I'm super excited to give it a try. Crazy sweet that you feel it in your stomach when you smell it and it's that artificial fruit smell but it's awesome.
I wanted to look into Mutant Genetics a bit as I thought this strain was pretty nice and it was a shame I couldn't find them anymore but it seems they have rebranded to Speedrun Seeds. I have updated the strain in the diary to reflect that. If you want to give this strain a shot, you'll find it under the Speedrun Seeds name. I cut her on the 24th. She grew fairly normal and was definitely my best shot at an autoflower. I'm going to let her dry for 2-3 weeks and then I'll give the smoke report and more terp descriptions.
