Strawberry Banana Auto - Fast Buds

Greenkeeper_SJ Hello everyone. Here stands a single Automatic alone in a square meter in the tent. On one hand, the LED is new, so this is the first grow with the Lumii Black Board 200W. On the other hand, this is only my second grow at the new spot or in the new house. Light at 50% of 200W Regarding the environment. The room is in the basement. Currently, temperatures are consistently between 19-20°C. Heating in the grow tent: - Heating mat 20°C - Hanging infrared heating mat 22°C Ventilating 2-3 times a day, the room is big enough. Humidity in the room fluctuates, as it's not a living space, from 56-64% Unfortunately, no further pictures from weeks 1-4. And then I spontaneously registered here. I must say, cool community here! I'm impressed by the amount of grows and diaries ;-) Greenkeeper SJ In the pictures, day 28 Long live the plant - stay high and happy!!

Greenkeeper_SJ Week 5 Low Stress Training is going exceptionally well for the little one. Since this is my first indoor autoflower, I'm skipping topping or other techniques. And then the first flower pistils started to show up. Hooray, it's really a girl!! Light at 50% of 200W Temperatures in the basement 18-19°C. Temperatures in the grow tent: 18-26°C - Heating mat 20°C - Hanging infrared heating mat 22°C Ventilating 2-3 times a day Water pH: 8.4 down to 6.3 RHF: 58-64% Long live the plant - stay high and happy!!

Greenkeeper_SJ Week 6: Flowering Phase Light at 75% of 200W She's pushing really hard and stretching beautifully out of the flat structure of the LST. I removed some of the lower shoots; it seems like no light gets there. Water amount had to be adjusted. I do water with drain, but not too much. And when nothing else is coming out, I increase by about 300-500ml. Temperatures in the basement 18-19°C. Temperatures in the grow tent: 18-26°C - Heating mat 20°C - Infrared heating mat hanging 22°C Ventilating 2-3 times a day Water pH: 8.4 down to 6.3 Humidity: 58-64% Long live the plant - stay high and happy!!

Greenkeeper_SJ Week 7 This week the big fan was put into operation. The lady is stretching beautifully and is very thirsty. Had to switch watering to daily. 2.5-3L per day. Very little drain, only about 100-200ml. A few days ago, I treated myself to the following lamp, the LUMii Black LED Strip 30W UV/FR (UV + Far Red).

Greenkeeper_SJ Week 8 This week I sorted the shoots into the boxes again ;-) Spread the shoots a bit wider around. By now, it's almost fully grown at 80x80cm.

Greenkeeper_SJ Week 9 Nothing spectacular this week. The stretch is slowly decreasing, and the buds are coming out nicely. Once it stops growing, I'll turn the light up to 100% for the boost at the end. Light: Lumii Black Blade 200W at 75% Lumii Black Bar 30W UV/FR Temperatures in the basement 16-18°C.

Greenkeeper_SJ Week 12 - Flowering week 6 of 10-11 - Merry Xmass She's getting thick and even stickier!! ;-) Since this week I've been using less nutrients. I think several leaf tips have slightly curled. And the dehumidifier is in the tent now. hohoho Light: Lumii Black Blade 200W at 100% Lumii Black Bar 30W UV/FR Temperatures in the basement 16-18°C.

Greenkeeper_SJ Week 13 - Flowering week 7 of 10-11 - Merry Xmass It smells, it’s sticky, it’s getting thick. Nutrients: only 1-2 times a week, about half the recommendation First strong defoliation under the net. Unfortunately, about 20g wet cut off!! Harvest on January 15 - 20, 2024 ??? ;-) Light: Lumii Black Blade 200W at 100% Lumii Black Bar 30W UV/FR Temperatures in the basement 16-18°C.

Greenkeeper_SJ Week 14 - Flowering Week 8 of 10-11 - Happy New Year It smells, it’s sticky, it’s getting thick ;-) Nutrients: only 1x this week Possible harvest would be 12/13/14.01.2023 OR 19/20/21.01.2023 ?!?!?!?

Greenkeeper_SJ Week 15 - Flowering week 9 of 10-11 The end is near! And there's only pure water left ;-) She’s almost not thirsty anymore. Water reduced to under 2 liters per 24h. At the end of the week, I switched to Blumat - automatic watering without a pump. It draws the water from the bucket by itself, I estimate 1-1.5 liters per 24h. -- more pictures to follow today or tomorrow. At the beginning of week 10, I will turn off the heating and only leave the mat from below at 18°C. Night temperatures outside are currently at 5°C and dropping, next week we’ll have down to -1°C. Room temperatures are consistently at 15°C, with humidity at 50%, last night even at 45%. -- planned harvest on the weekend of January 13 + 14, 2023 Light: Lumii Black Blade 200W at 100% Lumii Black Bar 30W UV/FR Temperatures in the basement 16-17°C.

Greenkeeper_SJ Week 16 - Flowering week 10 of 10-11 She's done, wilting and already drying at the top ends. Watering with the Blumat worked great. By the end of this week, the water consumption had dropped to under 1L! The lower buds, just below the net, could still use some sun. That's why I'll only harvest the top buds on 01/13. The rest will get 4 more days of light and then 2 days of darkness. I'll cut the main part of the plant on 01/20.

Greenkeeper_SJ Week 17 - Flowering Week 11 of 11 Top buds are drying and ripening after just a week in the box, now in the jar. Unfortunately, the drying in the basement went very quickly due to too little humidity. I was even able to vape a small bud yesterday. It still tastes a bit unfinished, but it hits pretty hard! The rest of the plant had 3-4 more days of light and has now been completely in the dark for 2 days. Lights off, heating and heating mat off. The actual harvest is coming this evening. Light: Lumii Black Blade 200W at 100% Lumii Black Bar 30W UV/FR Temperatures in the basement 16-17°C. Temperatures in the grow tent: 18-20°C - Heating mat 20°C - Infrared heating mat hanging 21°C Ventilating 2-3 times a day + window open at night Water pH: 8.4 down to 6.3 Rlf: 40-48% Long live the plant - stay high and happy!!

Greenkeeper_SJ Week 18 - Flowering Week 11 of 11 Harvest, Drying, and Curing As documented in Flowering Weeks 10 & 11, I split the harvest over two days so that the lower buds could still get a bit of light. There was definitely still some ripening happening on the lower flowers. This was clearly visible in the color and the resin content on the buds. Amount: 150g trimmed, dry material (+ 60g mini buds + 20g trim frozen) Long live the plant - stay high and happy!!
