Yo, growmies! Get ready for some serious taste bud titillation because a new strain is taking root in my grow box:
Royal Bluematic is RQS' Blueberry Auto champion stepping into the ring, and let me tell you, this lady's got speed! She shot up a mind-blowing 8cm in just the first 2 days! Where's this rocket ship taking us? Straight to Flavourtown, population: my taste buds!
The legendary Blueberry has been raved about a lot, especially when it comes to her flavour firepower. Well, this grow is all about unlocking that fruity magic!
Now, to achieve ultimate taste bud nirvana, we gotta be a little Zen in the grow tent. This means focusing all that energy into one superstar bud, keeping the temperatures chill, and going easy on the fertilizer. But for that extra nutrient oomph, I'm bringing back the Plagron magic. This stuff worked wonders on my Purple Haze Auto yeti bud, and let's just say, I'm expecting similarly epic results!
So, buckle up, growmies! This grow diary is all about chasing blueberry dreams and turning taste tests into taste triumphs! Stay tuned for some seriously scrumptious updates!
Week 1: Royal Bluematic's Stealthy Seedling Shenanigans!
Yo, growmies! Week 1 with the Royal Bluematic has been a real exercise in patience! Remember that feeling back in the day, staring at your seeds, convinced they were just playing possum? Yeah, that's me right now. The tap root's down there doing its underground expansion thang, but on the surface, things are as quiet as a mime convention. (I'm proud of that one ;)
BUT HOLD UP! Let's not forget the sprouting shenanigans of this little lady. She popped out of the soil like a grow-hungry gremlin, almost shattering the glass ceiling of my germination box in the process! (Seriously, that girl's got ambition!) Since then, she's held steady, adding a few new leaves to the mix.
Look, I get it, this week might be the snoozefest of grow diaries. But hey, sometimes the real magic happens below the surface. Think of it as the calm before the kush storm. Next week, we'll see some serious growth explosion, and trust me, you won't want to miss it!
High fives all around!
Week 2: The Blueberry Branch-Out & A Case of Box Snuggles!
Yo, growmies!
Week 2 with the Blueberry has been a chill affair, but don't let that fool you! This little lady's been busy behind the scenes, stretching her branches and stem like she's on a mission to reach the heavens (or at least, my grow light!).
Speaking of reaching, I was worried for a sec about the signs of nutrient burn on the leaves. Looks like I got a little overzealous with the leftover Plagron from my Purple Haze Auto grow. Rookie mistake! Lesson learned: fresh soil for every grow is the way to go. But hey, the good news is, it doesn't seem to be slowing her down one bit.
Things are about to get a little crowded in the grow box though. The Blueberry just welcomed some new roommates - my outdoor grow seedlings! It's gonna be a cozy cuddle puddle in there for a bit, but hey, more plants, more merriment, right?
Stay tuned, growmies! Next week, we'll see if the Blueberry can maintain her zen growth with her new roommates. High fives all around!
Week 3: Stretching for the Sky 🌱
My little Blueberry Auto is reaching for the heavens! She's definitely prioritizing height over girth right now, stretching upwards with a slender, sativa-like grace. Not much branching action happening yet, but the nodes along the stem seem primed for flower production.
It's still early days, though, so I'm not making any hasty judgments. She's got plenty of time to fill out and surprise me.
Week 5: Flower Power and Sweet Anticipation
It's official: flowering has begun! My Blueberry Auto is living up to her name, bursting into beautiful, fragrant buds. The white pistils are starting to look yummy, and the sweet, fruity aroma is becoming more pronounced each day.
I'm sticking to the Plagron feeding schedule, but being mindful not to overdo it. She seems to be responding well to the nutrients.
The stem is still quite slender, looks like she's been bred to focus her energy on one massive cola. I'm imagining the transformation as that central bud swells and matures. YUM!
This Blueberry Auto is on track to deliver a delicious harvest!
Week 6: The Leaning Tower of Bud!
Yo, growmies!
Week 6 with the Blueberry Auto - Just cracked open the grow box, and let me tell you, I was greeted by a sight that would make any micro grower do a double take.
This Blueberry Auto isn't just growing, she's leaning - like a full-on Pisa Tower impersonator!
Her monstrous bud development happening right before my eyes! Those Plagron girls know what they're mixing!
This Blueberry Auto is clearly reaching for the top of the grow box. This girl has ambition! It might be time to consider a strategic relocation to give those top colas some extra space to grow and really maximize their flavour potential. Maybe a little outdoor sunshine could be just the ticket? We'll see what this week brings!
One thing's for sure, the Blueberry Auto is on a mission to become a legendary harvest. High fives all around!
Week 7: Blueberry Auto Busts Outta the Box! ☀️
Yo! This Blueberry Auto's got wanderlust! Her main bud is getting bigger and juicier by the day, but my grow lights just ain't cutting it anymore. I learned that with my last Purple Haze harvest (check out my diary). Yeah, exactly.
So, I packed our bags (well, her pot) and took a road trip to the countryside. Now she's chilling next to her sisters, Pineapple Poison and Rainbow Candy. Let's just say she's loving the fresh air. Stay tuned for a glorious harvest!
P.S. Big thanks to Mother Nature for sponsoring this week's growth!
Week 8: Blueberry Auto's Smell is Seductive AF!
Yo growmies! This Blueberry Auto's aroma is straight-up mind control! Every trip to the garden is a smell-a-thon, so good I forgot to snap solo pics this week. Don't worry, I got some epic group shots showcasing her impressive root system and that glorious main cola. The resin's still very clear, but let's be honest, I'm itching for an early taste test. This smell is pure torture (in the best way possible)! Someone send help (or a giant bag of snacks)!
Stay tuned for the harvest showdown, growmies! Will I resist the urge and let the Blueberry Auto reach its full potential? Or will I succumb to the tempting aroma and snag a sneak peek bud? The suspense is killer (almost as killer as that smell)! High fives all around!
Week 9: Blueberry Auto's Packing on the Thiccness!
Yo growmies! Just swung by the garden, and let me tell you, my jaw hit the floor faster than a dropped joint! The Blueberry Auto said "sayonara" to stretching and is now channeling all her energy into thicc bud formation! YES!
Look at that main cola - it's practically bursting with juicy flowers! I also snagged a trippy video to show you this frosty lady in all her glory.
And the smell, oh man, the smell! It's getting intense like a skunk who just discovered high-end perfume. Hahaha!
We're getting closer to harvest. I can feel (and smell) it. How long will she keep on packin' the weight?
Stay tuned, growmies. High fives all around!
Week 10: Blueberry Auto - Sweetness Overload & Harvest Looms! ☀️
Yo growmies! Mother Nature's got the magic touch for sure! Every weekend visit to the Blueberry Auto is like a trip to candyland. The smell gets sweeter by the hour, seriously, I'm surprised I haven't attracted a swarm of sugar-crazed squirrels!
Speaking of close encounters, I snapped some magnified pics this week so you can all get a good look at her frosty goodness. Those trichomes are getting cloudy, with barely any amber ones in sight. Harvest decision time is upon us! Do I chop this sweet blueberry dream this weekend, or let her keep on ripening for another week? The struggle is real, growmies!
I decided on next week, but I couldn't resist a sneak smoke. Snagged the two bottom nuggets (gotta practice self-control, right?) and they're already chilling in my mini drying spa.
Next week, it's harvest time for real, and you bet I'll be reporting back on the smoking experience! Stay tuned, growmies, the grand finale is almost here! High fives all around!
Week 11: Blueberry Auto - Harvest Day & Sweet Dreams Ahead! ☀️
Yo growmies!
Harvest day is coming for our Blueberry Auto queen! Those folks at Royal Queen Seeds weren't lying - 11 weeks and this beauty is ready to meet the shears! The trichomes are looking milkylicious, like a frosty breakfast of champions, with nary an amber one in sight. So, it's going to be chop chop time in a few days!
A quick shoutout to the German sunshine for working its magic these past few weeks. You rock!
The Blueberry Auto's smell is getting sweeter by the second, like a blueberry bush that fell headfirst into a candy factory. Seriously, I can almost taste it already!
Speaking of taste, the wait is almost over, guys! This harvest is about to get chopped, dried, and smoked faster than you can say "Blueberry Dream!" Let's give her a few more days in the sun, growmies, because next week, we'll be diving into the smoking experience and letting you know if this Blueberry Auto lives up to its sweet, sweet reputation.
High fives all around!
