Blackberry Kush Auto outdoor - organic balcony grow
Blackberry Kush stretches. I could form a nice bushy structure and the plant reacts well with a lot of flowers which get direct sunshine.
It‘s my first grow. This one is the second cannabis plant, popped out of my homemade charcoal compost potting mix.
I feed my plants with light homemade fertilizers and water with rainwater 1-2 times per week. The plants love it, like my tomatoes and peppers do and did in the past.
The plant doing well. She have a good smell but it‘s not really intense yet. The flowers look healthy and it‘s already possible to see how she produce the purple berry colors in trichomes. I have an eye on nitrogen. This was too much and I‘m thinking about a flush, which already helped my first cannabis plant Tropicana. So Blackberry Kush is not ready yet. I think we‘ll end in the middle of July or later. I like to vape my cannabis cause I‘m a medical user. And for this it‘s good to have a fully ripe flower. I need to water in the mornings and late afternoons.
The week was partly sunny and partly rainy and our plants had to be canopied on the balcony nearly every day. Rare sunny hours. Humidity is mostly ok, but I‘m checking now very regular if the plant need to be harvested. The flowers are covered in trichomes, pistils got brown on the upper flowers, the larger fan leaves loose their color and I could spot first amber. But I want to wait as long as possible.
Pure rainwater in the morning and in the evening. Flushing first time with a good drainage.

This will be the last week for my Blackberry Kush. She will be in the dark basement for the next days.
The weather is far from ideal. High humidity, lot‘s of rain showers.
Blackberry Kush Auto is a very nice Strain for the evening. It‘s not too heavy but gives a long lasting relaxation. Also it’s good to use against moderate pain. After a short energetic phase, it leaves you in a nice physical relaxation, the mind is calm. Later in the evening I became very sleepy. Really nice and tasty strain. I will grow it again.

I recommend to vape this cannabis flos with 130 and 159 degrees. Yummy!
Unfortunately I found bud rot, so I had to harvest without leaving the plant 2-3 days in the dark.
I‘m satisfied with the harvest but I lost something like several grams at the end because of bud rot in two dense flowers.
Very nice harvest, great work! 👏 👊 I have a seedling now of Blackberry Kush. Out of curiosity, when you say vape at 139 and 159, what different effects do you get from those 2 temperatures? Thanks!
Good to know, thanks for sharing. 👈 I heard CBD strains can be more sensitive, so good call on letting nature do its thing. You can only become a good grower by experience. I've never grown with Terra Preta but sounds like an interesting soil to use. From what I'm told it is better to harvest CBD stains late with mostly amber trichomes.
My plan for Blackberry Kush is to do some LST with very light defoliation. What I've learned from Autos is they are not very forgiving due to their fast harvest times so I try not to do too much defoliation, no HST, and I'm light on nutes. I still have tons to learn though so others may have different opinions on what I'm doing. Happy Growing!! 👊
@MedicineMaker, 🙏😎 I'm in week six now and all I can say about the CBD Blackberry Kush compared to the other strains in the tent, she don't like too hot soil and drinks very slowly, She still have nitrogen toxity, maybe I will give her a little flush. I grow with Terra Preta and add just water every two days. She is not that hungry like the Blackberry Kush I think. Small plant, first in flower. She didn't like my low stress training, too. Would be better let nature do it's thing. We'll see...
Blackberry Kush reacted very well on heavy LST in week four and five. Big bush with a lot of dominant shoots. 😍 Happy growing my friend.
@Comfrey, We are true grow buddies then since we have similar minds to grow Blackberry Kush 😀 I read the description about CBD Blackberry Kush and the medicine benefits sound very promising, I'll have to give it a try some time. As for your English, I'm very impressed on how well you write!👏 Thanks for the vaping temperature information! I usually vape in the evening at 185-190, for stress relief and sleep. I'll have to give the 130 and 159 temps a try and see how they work for me, thanks again for giving me this idea to try. You mentioned the Mighty+ that is exactly what I use to vape, I just love it! 🙌 Happy Growing brother! 👈 👊
