Wedding Cheesecake Auto #1

Looking great. Update: Sat 6-8-24. She's all snuggled into her forever home.

Things are going great. She is reaching and praying. Great color and spunk! Always have humidity issues with the tent in the basement, but got it under control. Yay. 😎 Although I don't have a diary for the Purplematic Auto, I'm thinking she is over watered. I don't like the plastic bucket, but my husband will be putting it outside, so hopefully she will dry up.

Things are going great. Just gave another round of Banana Bomb Tea (peel and molasses). Cal-Mag and Fox Farm Tiger Bloom will be used week 5. Humidity is high in the basement (72%), but the tent is running at 57%. Hoping Michigan dries out before she flowers. I have a backup plan if the humidity is a problem. She smells strong! 😋 I'm not going to do any training, I haven't had a successful tent grow yet. So I'm not messing with her. Wish me luck y'all!! 😎

This week has had a couple issues, but I think things are worked out. I moved her up to a dryer grow area and I'm able to control the environment much better than my tent in the basement. Some of my fan leaves started to develope a dark-bronze discoloration on their inner areas. I attribute this to a pH issue and I adjusted to a slightly higher pH - 6.5. Her new growth looks good. I have well water, so my pH starts at 9.7 and it's hard water. I have killed plants because of not pHing my water. I'm doing much better this time. Lol. She started pre-flower on 6/27/24 and she smells dope. I was surprised, but Wedding Cheesecake is a fast growing Auto. I'm watering every three days (about 2.5 liters). I start to get run off and stop watering. It's only been two days and she seems thirsty. I'm not great with Nutes. I've ruined a couple plants, so I'm going easy on them. Whatever I'm doing this time seems to be working... so far. I have also turned my light up to 75%. That's about it. I hope she looks on track. I'm starting week 5 and her buds are starting! 😋 Any advice is much appreciated! GL growing y'all! 🌱

I finally named her... Sarah Lee. 😁 I moved her upstairs where I can control the environment better. Michigan weather is a beast and my basement was a bad idea for a summer tent grow. The AC upstairs is making her happy and helps with humidity. So boom. She is flowering nicely! 😍 Water (pH 6.58) about 1.25 gal every 2 days now. She's thirsty. Still not full strength on Nutes, next water maybe more Tiger Bloom. I still use vinegar for pHing. No issues at this time, except humidity. Oh, and my cat is obsessed. I'm not wanting to smoke cat hair, so I put up curtains. I'm also not upset I didn't do any LST. This plant is thriving. Next time I will try LST. I just want to get good bud off an inside grow. 😊 Going into week six and I'm super excited. 😎👍🏼🌱 One last thing. I changed her light schedule to 18-6. I was 19-5 and read a blog where the grower increased dark an hour at flower and it really bulked the buds. We'll see. GL y'all.

Sarah Lee is gliding along and budding up. I can't stop checking on her. Lol. I'm in love! 😍 The leaves are getting that beautiful dusting of goodness. I can't believe I've got this far! I'm always battling humidity. Ugh. It's when the light goes out it rises to 55%-60%. I'll start applying Lost Coast tonight (the entire plant) to help avoid PM and bugs. I have only been treating the top soil and bottom 6". FF Tiger Bloom every other water. About 2 tsp. Just over a gal of water. pH 6.58. I've noticed all her branches are really trying to catch up to the main cola. I can't wait to try LST on my next grow. This light is fantastic! I've heard if the tips of your leaves are slightly brown, you are good with the Nutes. What do you think? I hope she looks good to y'all. Happy growing! 🌱☀️

I take way too many pictures. 😁 No? 😂 I've also deemed her a Princess. Princess Sarah Lee Wedding Cheesecake. 😂 Ok, so not much to report. I've hopefully corrected the burn. Gave her fresh water last two waters (water every 3 nights. pH 6.58). I didn't flush hard, but watered until run off. Not sure if I should add any more liquid Nutes. 🤔 Probably won't. Her new growth looks great. Her buds are getting fatty-boomba-latty. The smell is sweet and funky.🤘🏼 She has stopped going vertical or at least really slowed down. I've devised a support system, if needed. I can only hope. Lol. I also gave her a mini defoliation. 💅🏼 Only issue, humidity. I gave her a full body spray of Lost Coast Therapy. I think I'm good, but dark time is a humidity issue I'm watching closely. I love this plant and I'm crushed about the burn, but I think she's ok and I'm getting close to harvest. I even looped her buds and my trichs are already in the milky/a few amber stage. I have a scope so I'll get trichome pics up soon. Fun stuff. 😋🤘🏼 GL growing y'all. 🌱🤘🏼😎

Getting really close to harvesting. The smell, wow. Sweet, funky, hints of vanilla. Her buds are dense and still packing. Her trichomes are milky and frosty. Yummy 😋 I'm loving her fade. Best part, I've learned so much and I'm excited about my next grow already. 😁 GL y'all 🌱🤘🏼😎

She's about to be chopped! What a beautiful plant! Microscope pics are from the lowest little bud. Main cola is frosty and milky. The smell is truly sweet cheesecake. So funky. Yummy 😋 The leaves are absolutely beautiful. Lime green and yellow with hints of red. My first successful indoor grow! F ya! 😁 Can't wait to smoke it. August 8th is Harvest Day. 😎

My first successful indoor grow!! Harvested: Aug 7 Milky trichs with about 15% amber. The smell is sweet, funky and kinda fruity. Like fruit-cheese. 😁 My dry is going well, I'm 5 days in. I'm at 55% humidity and 68°F. Nice slow dry. Very little "hay" smell. I'll be checking my stems tomorrow. I do a combination wet-dry trim. I love trimming. Jars are ready for curing. My heart is already in love with my next plant. 😂 I love this platform. Combined with Jane, I was able to keep track of this grow and learn from my mistakes. GL y'all. 🌱👍🏼
