First Grow - Sweet Seeds +Speed Auto

Automatix Week 1 after germination.

Automatix Week 2, first sunny days.

Automatix Since this week, the little one is back inside under a E27 LED 4000k with 17W and is waiting for the sun to come back. Hopefully it will be back on the balcony from week 4.

Automatix This week will be the last cold nights and days, and from the weekend it's finally time to go out onto the balcony. Although all the forums tell you how many watts, lumens etc. you need, I think it is developing awesome under 17W 4000k and a self-made reflector.

Automatix This week is the first week of the grow in which it is warm enough to leave the little one outside during the day. At night the temperatures still drop below 15 degrees, so I will bring her inside.

Automatix In week 6 the temperatures no longer fall below 10 degrees at night and I now leave her outside day and night. Unfortunately, it's very cloudy at the moment and the sun only shines directly on the plant for a few hours, if at all.

Automatix Since the middle of last week, there have been plenty of hours of sunshine again and the rainy weather has improved. It is now developing a lot of leaf mass and the buds are starting to form properly.

Automatix Unfortunately, the sun is gone again this week and there is supposed to be a lot of rain, so I estimate that it will take another 1-2 weeks before we can harvest.

Automatix In week 9 there were only a few sunny days and the last 3 days it rained from morning to evening. Despite this, the buds have gained a lot of mass and more and more trichomes are forming.

Automatix The harvest is slowly coming to an end, the lower leaves were already completely yellow and I have removed them and more and more amber-colored trichomes are appearing.

Automatix I think I can harvest this week or next week, more and more amber-colored trichomes are gradually forming, even on the middle buds. From this week onwards, I will leave out the fertilizer completely so that it can use up its reserves.

Automatix The last week has begun, not much has changed in the color of the trichomes and this weekend we will finally harvest.

Automatix Unfortunately, this grow didn't go perfectly, towards the end there were problems with pests and mold in the large buds. And due to all the rain here on site, the humidity was also permanently at 70% and higher, so even more mold formed during the drying process. Conclusion: I had to throw away over 1/3 of the harvest and some of it is still in quarantine and is being checked daily for mold growth. I hope everything will be better with the next harvest.
