Week 5: Cocopopo does well. Did the last cuts today and will send the plants into flowering phase this week.
day 30: Moving day. I put all the plants from the small 1.26 liter pots in 9 liter pots. I compromised on the pots size and plants height trying to be as efficient as possible to not waste any ressources. I'll let them grow till thursday or friday and then send em into flowering phase. Till then i'll train them a little more so that their branches reach to the rim of each pot. The soil is pretty hot. It's my Organic Hot Super Bloom Mix. Or at least the goal is to create such a mix that fits to every genetic. I've been preparing it since january. All the ingredients dissolved completely in the meanwhile (pellets) and it's a homogenous mix. I circulated it in a 80 liter trough at least once a day during the last 2 months.
Ingredients: Chicken shit pellets, Guanokalong powder, Plagron guano (roughly 1/4 of the guano dose) worm castings, insects excrements (from a local insect factory), Ghassoul, ash, primal rock flour, eggshell flour, roughly 10 liters of wood soil to bring in funghi and microorganisms (there will be some algae as well).
I gave them a roughly 3 liter trapezial buffer of new bio soil from Spar which i didn't enrich. The soil recipe for OSHB mix is the one i usually use on normal plants since i just started topping girls a few weeks ago for the first time in my life. I'll expect them to run off nutrients during flower and prepare to give em an extra feed for their loads of branches (12 -16 branches per plant). At least this effect came to bear with the auto bubblegum extra grow (bulkseedbank) i finish in parallel.
day 31: I put in the leaves again to prevent the soil from drying to fast and inhomogenous especially in the upper region of the pot. Also the feeding from now on be organic with the OHSB mix and the Bio Soil grow buffer so there's no need to infuse nutrients external. At least in the beginning...

Cocopopo (Bulk Seed Bank) x 3 slowly crawling out of their bed. All 3 seeds i planted have germinated in the Eazy Plugs. I have just put them under light. The plan is to top and train them in 1.26 l pots such as the other three plants can be seen on the pic above (Watermelon Jam - Bulk Seed Bank).
I'm going to plant one of the seedlings in soil i collected from the nearby woods during grow phase (1.26 liter pot). I was checking out the nearby soil conditions to estimate where to plant the multiple generations of this years planned autoflower outdoor grows. Mostly the soil around here contains more clay but still has a lot of humus and a good drainage. Usually i'm looking for places with enough elemental input via rain.
