Hey growmies, it's time for a brand new grow โ๏ธ๐
My previous grow failed because I damaged the seedling and it stopped growing. So now we have a new and really nice strain from Barney's Farm. I wanted to grow a strain from Barney's Farm for a while now. Their strains look so great on their website, but also here on GD, that I just had to give them a try. For this round I was looking for an autoflower strain with a relatively short blooming time and a fresh and sweet terpene profile. The Mimosa x Orange Punch was the perfect candidate, as I also want to grow a plant that develops purple and dark hues in bloom. The diary that made me really excited about Barney's Farm was @peakyplanters Biscotti Mintz grow, https://growdiaries.com/diaries/166388-grow-journal-by-peakyplanters . Check it out as the plant looks amazing!
Germination of the Mimosa x Orange Punch Auto was a breeze. As always I put the seeds in a seedplug which I soaked in Biotabs Bactrex. And after 2 days all three seeds had germinated ๐๐
As this plant doesn't get too tall, I decided to grow three plants in my GTools growbox, which worked out pretty well in my Purple Haze grow last winter. I'll have to do a bit of defoiliation and LST, as I prefer to have multiple plants when growing autoflowers. I'm not topping them, which also slows down their growth, and instead plan on removing a few side branches so the plant can develop a nice main cola.
So this is the plan, but you know what they say, life is what happens while you're making plans. So we'll see how the plants develop and what they need to grow to their full potential ๐๐ช
There is going to be a "battle of the breeders" on youtube. 10 breeders picked a strain they wanted to enter. Mimosa x Orange Punch is on of them. You can sign up and join the battle. Home growtv and highigan has more details. But yeah.
Good luck with your grow!!
@Zengrower, it's their fault they are not well presented... They just don't care about marketing or relations with growers at all. Just look at my autoflower White Widow. Have you seen Autoflower yielding 700 grams dry???
@Happy_Roots, Thanks buddy! โ๏ธ I couldnt find any info about the contest, but good for Barney's Farm that their strain is one of the contestants. They're underrepresented on GD for sure.
@Zengrower, Hey ! I had to kill my plant that was going to compete, but I started new diary, same strain. You got that round for sure man ! Your plants are looking amazing.
Menos es mรกs!!
No se le ve carencias, asรญ que no le des tanto nitrรณgeno, luego la yerba sabe rara y se estira demasiado, las flores no se aprietan.
Si el sustrato es allmix, no le hace falta alimento hasta que empiece a florecer (4-6 semanas).
No veo exceso de Nitrogeno, las hojas no estรกn muy intensamente verdes
Pero como te dice @fraankiiee con sustrato All-Mix no deberรญas aรฑadir nutrientes liquidos hasta mitad o finales de la semana 4
