GrowinStrainz This week is more about getting good growth. Running the soil a little wet at the moment and will see how much water will be needed by the end. Sticking with 100ml every 24hrs for the moment. Plant is looking very healthy and a deep green. So far happy.

GrowinStrainz This week I need to repot into its final pot. Beginning to see a lot more growth show so at some stage I will need to begin LST. Its really coming into its own now and I expect rapid growth over the next few weeks. Plant itself looks quite health and I've switched up the nutrients to promote more growth.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 4 - After some decent watering last night I've been rewarded with a very healthy looking plant.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 4 - I had some curtain hooks that slot into the bottom of the pot to allow for anchors for LST rope.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 4 - I have pulled the plant a little over 45 degrees, I'll let it go like this for a while and start to level out any fresher growth. As you can see the curtain hook sits nicely on the bottom of the pot. I opted for longer laces with broad lace to reduce any cutting.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 4 - In need of some water, LST beginning to show as the plant levels.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 4 - Looking much healthier now.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 4 - I was gone away for a few days so had to get someone else to care for it. Hence the difference in the photos. Leveling out quite nicely now.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 4 - Perked up a little more by the looks of it.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 4 - Slowly climbing out of the pot thanks to the LST.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 4 - The undershoots are beginning to show themselves. Not there to fold the leaves the way I would like but it looks good.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 4 - Smaller leaves begging to show more. Hoping LST is going to provide more bud sights.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 4 - fresh undergrowth really beginning to show through now!

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 4 - I'm now back! I pulled some of the larger leaves under. This will allow more light to access the fresh growth. I have seen some yellowing which I am slightly concerned about with the fresh growth.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 4 - Looking much better in terms of fresh growth. Still have yellowing on the top leaves. I moved away the light a little. Other than that the plant looks healthy.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 4 - Becoming more broad in terms of leaf coverage. Looking a lot greener too which is good.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 4 - Lots of bud sites opening up. I didn't water last night as the plant was still wet. Seem to be rewarded for that this morning.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 4 - Just after watering for the night. Overall the LST has kept a lot of the height down and I will soon need to pull down other offshoots to get the best light into some buds and make the plant wider.

GrowinStrainz Beginning to focus more on LST Training this week. I started a little pulling the plant to one side to allow the fresh bud sites to get much more light. If anybody is reading this, this is my first time doing this, so if I'm doing anything wrong please let me know. I've checked quiet a lot of threads on Topping / FIMing and LST and since this is an Autoflower I'm reluctant to top or any FIMing. Especially for my first time. But expecting some big growth this week especially on the fresh sites since the first initial bend with more accessible light. Going away for 4 days so hopefully I can get some photos while away to update everyone. 😎

Grow Questions

GrowinStrainzstarted grow question 8y ago

I seem to have some yellowing on fresh growth starting to occur. I'm not too sure how to prevent it. I have started to do some LST and find it to be successful and a lot of fresh sites have appeared and wonder if this could inhibit it by stressing the plant?

Experimentgreenanswered grow question 8y ago

I think a lot of our plants have the newest growth come out as almost bright green/yellow and slowly as the leaf ages it turns into a more natural green. However an iron deficiency coupled with possible ph fluctuations can cause that same new yellow growth. Hows your calcium intake? And ph? Is it staying fairly consistent? Ive noticed most growers end up using some level of a calmag supplement through their grows. Happy vegetative stage! The over all plant health looks great, nice and bushy.😊

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 5 - Lots of green going on so far! Plant is healthy over all but still a touch of yellowing on fresh growth.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 5 - Night shot. Needed a steady hand and I was in no state to hold it steady *Cough cough* but its getting bushier by the day, I keep turning the bigger leaves down to get as much light as possible into the fresh growth.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 5 - This is odd. It feels like the plant grew out of the pot overnight. But looks incredibly healthy and I think I need to LST some of the other branches to keep it low and get some light into the bud sites.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 5 - Looking a bit droopy before nighttime watering. But plant itself is very healthy and continuing to grow upwards.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 5 - Perked up a lot this morning! Loads of new bud sites showing. I turned down the other large leaves before leaving for work so there is much more light hitting the bud sites.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 5 - beginning to fill up some more with green. It's becoming broader all around.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 5 - Seems to have more of a perkiness this morning. Decided im going to LST the other branches and allow light into the center where more bud sites seem to be forming.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 5 - Post LST shot. I didnt want to damage any of the stems so I use lacers from hockey skates which are double the width and much softer.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 5 - Here we can see a huge difference in the amount of light getting into the center of the plant. Looking good I think.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 5 - Don't normally post my set up but she's looking pretty here.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 5 - Coming into its new shape nicely. Centers beginning to point upwards again.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 5 - Looking more perkier and ready to shoot upwards. Getting closer to flowering.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 5 - Getting a little too big to fit into the camera angle now. My arm can only reach so much. But it's coming on very well. Hope to get a nice yield out of this one.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 5 - Starting to really fill out now. Its beginning to touch either side of the tent. But the bud sites seem to be filling out a little more every day.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 5 - Fell asleep on the couch and this was taken at 4am when I woke up, lol. But looking quite content with itself. Now moving onto the final week of veg.

GrowinStrainz Since starting training last week the amount of new bud sites has increases massively. There is still some yellowing on fresh growth but It seems to green up once it grows out so I'm not sure if its a nuit issue or not but the plant itself seems to be in good condition. Overall its doing very well and I'm trying to allow as much light down to the fresh growth by turning the larger leaves down. That seems to be working wonders on getting fresh growth so I will continue doing that. Expecting some more LST this week to get as many bud sites as possible to increase yield.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 6 - Close up from the one of the bud sites. Looks like its coming on well.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 6 - Plant seems to be very happy in its current state. I stopped stretching any further and just let it grow up from here. I keep exposing any hidden bud sites when I have a chance.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 6 - It never surprises me how much the leaves drop overnight. But the colas are coming on great!

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 6 - Changing the angle of the photos. Pot and plant is getting a little heavy and this can show more of the top growth. Plant has over 13 large colas which I guess means LST has worked! Looks very healthy with a fresh scent.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 6 - It has gotten quite a lot more bushy. The plant is beginning to smell fresh also.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 6 - This morning I'm visibly seeing the bud sites grow more. they seem to beginning to fill out quite a bit more.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 6 - Just after watering. Getting very thirsty now. Easily can drink a litre a day.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 6 - Looking bushier by the day. Bud sites are starting to fill out and some more are hidden under growth which I am trying to expose by turning down the leaves.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 6 - After exposing the bud sites for a day or two they become much more defined and can nearly hold there own against other fan leaves.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 6 - For the small setup I have (Plant is getting wider now) it fits perfect. There isnt much wiggle room but the plant seems happy with all leaves a fresh green and no sign of any mites or deficiencies. Feel like Im in a good place at the moment.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 6 - Night shot after watering. Leaves seem to drop if it's either too dry or too wet. This is just been watered so probably the latter.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 6 - Happy valentines day! Somebody has woke up perky.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 6 - Looks happy after the day. I reduced the water amount slightly but I had noticed top leaves drooping so will raise it a bit more tomorrow.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 6 - I have noticed a lot of slowdown in actual growth and a begging of growth around flowering which is good. Will begin flowering nuits from tomorrow.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 6 - Lots of bud sites visible on this one. Counted 18 the other day which I am super chuffed with for a first grow. Shows LST works.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 6 - Looking taller but not much bushier. Leaves have a think dense bush already which I am happy with. Flowers beginning to show more and more by the day.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 6 - Getting much bushier. I noticed a lot of bud sites filling out also.

GrowinStrainz Last week was great with some more LST training. I found the plant has produced quite a lot of new bud sites and they are starting to fill out a lot more. Looking forward to watching the final growth this week and then will move onto flower next week hopefully. Nuits will all stay the same for now in terms of percentage but I have been a little more generous and the plant only has been rewarding. Pulling down all the auxiliary stems seems to have helped quite a lot in spreading the broadness of the plant which is good. Really looking forward to seeing how the next week will go.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 7 - First day of new nuits. Plant stems have gotten very strong. Bud sites showing now in plenty.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 7 - During the night after watering its easier to see how well the bud sites are doing. Beginning to form fully down the stems now.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 7 - Perky and healthy is the signs of the day. It seems to be loving the new nuits.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 7 - Really see the plant reaching now which is good. Bit of extra growth on the stems.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 7 - It looks very healthy all around and I noticed an increase in water was needed. It's since been upped. Will see how this plays out.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 7 - Many more bud sites beginning to show through now. Hopefully I'll get a decent yield.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 7 - Really seeing some budding growth now. They are becoming much more dominant on the stems. Kept water on the upped level and it's doing great.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 7 - Really see a huge burst of bud growth now. It looks and smells a lot fresher and fuller.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 7 - Just about does it. :)

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 7 - It seems that the extra water makes a huge difference. There are a lot more bud sites appearing in the center mid. Plant seems to be thriving.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 7 - Hopefully this is going to give a decent return. The plant itself seems to be producing more of those glorious buds.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 7 - The smell this morning is quite fresh. I moved the light up a little more as there is still some reaching from the new growth.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 7 - So, I had to move it for a night as I had visitors and where it lives in my current setup it can be found. So this is the night of the move. Plant held up well but I'm expecting some stress.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 7 - Bit of a close up this one. I got a friend to take it. Seems to have held up ok on its travels.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 7 - All moved back home again. Plant is a little bit stressed I think. Some of the hairs on the buds seems to have turned amber, especially near the top. Hopefully it wont affect the yield too much, maybe its normal but this is my first time so Im not too sure.

GrowinStrainz So now begins the flowering phase. I've changed up the nuits and started some more leave tucking to expose the bud sites. It all seems to be going very well at the moment with no signs of disease, deficiency or pests which is good. Thank god we are in the flowering stage because my tent is quite tight at the moment with the bushiness of this plant. This week is going to be more about care and some leave tucking than anything else. I have had to up the water amount also. The plant is nearly drinking 1.5l a day. But it seems to be able for it with the soil being dry between watering.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 8 - Become very very dense over the last week. But sites seem to have some browning on the hairs but hopefully it's normal. If anyone knows please tell me.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 8 - I am away for a few days so the better half of me has been looking after her. She takes cooler photos thats for sure! I might just have to take out the big camera for a few shots :)

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 8 - Another cool lighting effect! I had everything prepped for when I was gone so the care went smooth.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 8 - Looking bulky, nugs are begging to show a bit more thickness.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 8 - I think I should pull out my DSLR and get a few nice shots. Plant is healthy, no nuit burn and begging to smell more.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 8 - Just back from my trip! It smells really fresh now. Not bad, just a really nice aroma. More bud sites are making an appearance also

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 8 - So had a right look through the plant this morning. It looks very healthy. Loads of buds and a nice fresh smell and feel.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 8 - Getting much closer to harvest time. I need to be sure to plan a flush for the plant before hand. That will probably come next week or so. I don't really know how to decide.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 8 - There is a nice fresh scent coming this morning. Plant is strong also and has no issues.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 8 - Watered it more in the afternoon. Nugs seem to be getting much bigger and slightly purple.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 8 - Looking much better. I decided to pull back the watering a bit as it was quite wet. Plant seems to be thankful for that.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 8 - Nugs are gaining in density. I keep monitoring the trichome.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 8 - Looking good. Began to become dryer so time to readjust water. It seems to have really slowed new bud site growth and pushed more into the buds themselves.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 8 - Nice fresh smell coming off the plant now. Not bad and not strong at all but fresh.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 8 - I can see some of the bud's beginning to get a purple tint which is quite cool.

GrowinStrainz Last week was the first real week of flower, I changed up the nutrients and it seems to have just worked out for the better. Bud sites showed up in droves and the plant looks and feels very healthy. I hope the stress doesn't show up too much into this week. There where some browning of the hairs on the bud sites but I will be paying a closer eye to it this week. I have upped the water slightly and its still thriving. I think this could be the last week or two of flowering before its harvest time! Looking forward to seeing how it will be at the end of this week. Stay tuned!

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 9 - Its doing great! Buds beginning to swell more daily and it seems to be coming more to a point of harvest.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 9 - The plants buds are now getting thicker and thicker by the day. I feel like its coming closer to harvest.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 9 - Looking dense. Just how I want it. There is quite a fresh scent off the plant at the moment. Very happy with current progress.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 9 - I decided to take some up close shots. Because who doesnt love some high quality photos

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 9 - I can see the purple flowers beginning to show a lot more. Its very cool to see the mix of colours and hopefully the flavour will match.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 9 - I have bought a microscope that plugs into the phone to allow me to check the trichomes. I think by looking at this its time to flush. Amber is starting show show a lot more and the trichomes are clear but beginning to get cloudy in spots.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 9 - Dropped the plant into the bath and poured through 2 gallons of water jug by jug. Waited until it held its own water and re-flushed again with 2 more gallons.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 9 - Just after the flush. Plant seems much weightier with the extra water.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 9 - Still very very weighty with the extra water. Little bit lighter but not by much. The buds seem to be getting much more dense though.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 9 - There is now a distinct fragrance. But a really nice sweet fresh one, nothing bad. Plant seems to be coming close to harvest time. I'm hoping I didn't flush too late. I guess some flush is better than no flush.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 9 - DAY 60! I never thought it would come this far. Looks great at the moment and the extra liquid seems to have really come through on the plant. Very happy at the moment.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 9 - Only on water now after the flush. But there is a nice sweet smell off it which is pleasant.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 9 - It still drinks a litre and a half of water but with the difference that there is no more nuits. But the plant is thriving on and the buds are really filling out now.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 9 - Its very fresh smelling now. I keep exposing the lower leaves to increase growth and the whole plant shows what a good LST can do.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 9 - Its beginning to become very frosty which is nice. I think it will be ready for harvest in the next few days. It looks very good.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 9 - Seems like the scent it getting much more fruity and stronger. daily the buds are swelling and becoming more and more frosty

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 9 - Thick is the aim of the game. Nugs are bulging and beginning to turn purple.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 9 - Noticed the tips of the bud leaves beginning to brown a bit more. It could be coming closer to the time to harvest. I'm hoping to harvest next week all going well.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 9 - Seem to have lost the morning photo which is unfortunate. But the smell is becoming more dominant now but in a good way.

GrowinStrainz I was initially hoping this would be my harvest week but from inspecting the plant I think it might take a little longer. The buds should hopefully fill out a little more and the trichome should become more amber which hasn't really started happening at all yet. The plant itself smells quite fresh and seems to be really doing well. I'm happy with the progress and glad there was no bugs or disease. If the plant starts to mature fast I will begin to flush this week with the hope of a harvest next week all going well. 😁

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 10 - Starting to get some real purple colour now into the buds.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 10 - There is a distinct fruity smell forming. It smells really good so I'm very pleased. Expecting this to be good.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 10 - Here she is in her microgrow.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 10 - The colas now are getting very thick. But I dont think it will be ready for harvest this week. So I need to wait a bit longer.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 10 - Colas are definetly beginning to get more and more potent. The berry smell is getting stronger by the day but doesn't smell weedy.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 10 - I still have been only feeding it water since the flush. Maybe I flushed a little too early. But this is my first grow so I'm going to forgive myself for being extra cautious on this one.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 10 - Hairs are beginning to darken a little more. Its still not ready yet. Its about 20% dark at this point. Going to wait until its at around 50% and harvest then.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 10 - Who doesn't love purple nugs!!

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 10 - I can really see the limitation of a small closet grow like mine. The plant could have grown much more with 10inches more space but we work with what we got and so far I'm happy with everything.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 10 - Buds are darkening much quicker now. Becoming more and more purple as days go on. There is a few that are coming close to harvest but not there yet. Have been considering a half harvest but I'm not sure really.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 10 - I noticed a distinct size change in the colas from the start of the week up to now. Its much larger and denser. Also pistils seem to have stopped producing so it looks like the plant is maturing.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 10 - I think I made the right choice in not harvesting. These are no where near ready. It will require a few more days for definite.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 10 - I keep trying to expose the hidden colas. I think this is something which a half harvest could solve but I'm not quite sure.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 10 - Bright and fresh. Plant is healthy and im beginning to see some of the leaves yellow.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 10 - Here we can see the yellowing starting to form. The plant smells incredible now. Very deep fruity smell while also fresh.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 10 - Purple! Purple nugs.... Lots of them. They are starting to really mature now but they need more time for certain.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 10 - Its been 70 days now! Plant is alive which is a success. Smells great but no harvest yet.

GrowinStrainz So I was expecting to harvest this week but the plant is just not ready yet! I'm going to have to wait until next week now. Its still drinking a hell of a lot of water, over 1.5l a day without any issues. It gets watered morning evening and night and dry's up in between with 500ml in each feed. I think the plant is very healthy any has no sign of disease or mites. Since I flushed early last week I think it should be very smooth when cured and smoked. I can probably guarantee a decent flush thanks to doing it a little too early. I'll know for next time though.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 11 - The amount of pistels that are brown have increased its closer to 35% now. I plan to harvest at 50ish.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 11 - Buds have really filled out. There are some smaller buds aswell I keep exposing but there not as mature as the rest. I was tempted to do a half harvest but Im not sure.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 11 - This morning was a sign that it's still alive. Its drinking a lot of water and I don't know where its putting it, Hopefully into making good stuff.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 11 - Very purple now at the moment. It looks very good and smells even better. I feel it coming closer and closer to the time now.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 11 - Still not ready yet. It's looking like it's going to take a lot longer

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 11 - The leaves are yellowing more and more now at the moment. Not a bad thing considering it has been flushed so im guessing its pulling everything from the leaves

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 11 - The plant still drinks 1.5litres of water a day. It smells better and better every day though

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 11 - The nugs are starting to get more and more deep purple which is cool. Also the pistels are turning amber.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 11 - As the days go on, each leaf is beginning to yellow more and more. The plant is strong though and has some really nice frost coating the buds at the moment.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 11 - I find the smell of the plant getting stronger in a fruity aspect but it doesnt have the cannabis smell off it.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 11 - I had to go away for the weekend so these are the updates. Plant from the side shows the fading leaves to yellow.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 11 - Home :)

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 11 - Up close in the tent. Its sitting at a solid 26 degrees all the time.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 11 - Even in the deep purple of the tent there is a slight sign of the yellow leaves.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 11 - And Im back! We can really see a change over the weekend. Its scent has almost doubled, but it will need a bit of a trim soon.

GrowinStrainz I was expecting to be able to harvest for the last few weeks but it just isn't the case. The plant wasn't ready and there is no need to rush things. I will see how It will be this week and hopefully I can chop it, its been 4 weeks since it began to flower. The plant smells so good. It's very fruity and smells of quality. I'm quite glad the flush happened with loads of time to spare as I can almost guarantee smooth buds. I'm away on holidays this week so I may chop before I go because the plant is nearly ready.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 12 - Its trim time! There are a lot of the fan leaves covering the lower buds now so its time for them to go.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 12 - All the leaves that where trimmed are the ones that were covering the lower budded stems.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 12 - Post trim! Isnt she pretty, this really allows a lot more airflow through and exposes all the lower buds to the light to speed it up.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 12 - Some bud pics for all you bud whores out there :P

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 12 - Another side shot, here you can see it getting really frosty now. Not as frosty as some of the others i've seen but frosty all the same

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 12 - All trimmed and everything exposed, fruity smell got stronger since the buds are more exposed all the way through the plant.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 12 - We are getting some really dark purple buds showing. The smaller ones are more exposed so that should make a difference for the last push.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 12 - Even throughout the day the other leaves are turning more yellow. It looks like the plant is pumping everything into the buds now.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 12 - I feel very blessed that I didnt end up getting any pests or nuit burn attacking the plant throughout the growth. Going to inspect later to see if it will soon be ready for harvest.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 12 - The colours are really coming through now. There is much more amber pistels also. Will get the scope out later to investigate and see how we are.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 12 - I find the buds are growing more and more since the trim. It seems the plant is pumping everything into them.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 12 - Ive reduced the amount of water it uses now a little since its not got the same amount of leaves. I like to let it get a little dry in between watering.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 12 - It seems to be getting more and more purple now. The buds also smell so so fruity. There is no weedy smell at all.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 12 - Been checking daily if its ready for harvest and its not. Im looking to get a half and half on the trichomes.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 12 - As the leaves are dying im trimming them off to both allow more light into the lower buds and also to allow the plant to pump more into the buds.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 12 - Here we can see some of the smaller buds starting to also turn purple as the plant matures more.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 12 - Buds are getting more and more dense as the days go on. There is a reduction in new Pistels also

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 12 - More and more leaves are turning yellow. The microscope still says its not ready so may have to chop next week

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 12 - Up close purple bud! We all love purple buds. :)

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 12 - More and more leaves are turning yellow now and the buds are getting stickier also.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 12 - Soon time for another trim. No harvest this week but hope we can do it next week.

GrowinStrainz This week is all about the trim and the harvest. I really hope it will be ready this week in time for 420. The plant is coming to harvest time and the buds have really began to frost over fully. The smell is really really fruity and it just looks amazing at the moment. For a first grow Im very happy with myself, especially for the size of the tent I have. I do feel like I could have given an extra week of nutrients earlier but you live and learn with these things :) Looking forward to the harvest now

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 13 - Clear growth on the buds. They have all nearly doubled in size since the initial trim. Even the small ones.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 13 - Still very bushy and will need another trim.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 13 - I gave it a trim last night and now you can see a lot more of the buds are exposed. Im hoping this will allow it to mature a little quicker.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 13 - The smell... Its glorious.... Very fruity and the buds are all very sticky at the moment.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 13 - I noticed that there are more leaves covering the little buds in the middle so I decided to give it a bit of a haircut :)

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 13 - Now we can see a lot more of the buds are exposed again. I swear, every day this thing is getting bigger and juicier.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 13 - A lot of the main colas are fully pumped with buds from the bottom to the top. It seems the little trimming has really pushed the plant to flower faster.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 13 - As we can see, a lot of the trichomes are beginning to turn amber. I think it's only a matter of time now, and not much of it.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 13 - I struggle to think how much bigger these can get for the size of the plant. But it seems like it will be harvest time in a day or two.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 13 - Plant looking amazing in this one. Soon time to take off more trim to allow light to the lower flowers.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 13 - The smell is incredibly fruity. It seems to be getting real close now.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 13 - As we can see there is a deep purple to the nugs. Its nearly ready for harvest now.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 13 - Trimmed back some of the bigger fan leaves to let the rest get more light.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 13 - Looks like there will be a decent yield to size ratio on this one. Quite proud of my first grow.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 13 - This is the last picture before harvest. It's been good! But now the fun begins. I cannot begin to describe the smell off this.

GrowinStrainz I had fully expected to harvest last week but it just wasn't the case. So that means that THIS week is the week of the harvest! Its been pretty close the last while but Im looking for some couch lock along with some head high so trying to get a balance between amber and cloudy trichomes. There nearly there so I think a few days and it will be harvest time at last. I keep trimming the plant every 2 days or so. I do this so the plant will begin to pump everything it's got into its buds. I have seen them nearly double over the last week and couldn't be happier. It's all about patience with this. This week is the week my friends 😎

Happy Harvest Day!

Very mellow feeling from this one. I was looking for something that would give me a bit more of a couch lock with a similar giggly high. My god this delivers! It gives you the couch lock feeling while also feeling clear in the mind. There is a sense of focus and clarity when it comes to doing anything with a blast of creativity to add to it. It is really good for hanging out or even just chilling alone. I found it can help with focus during reading and even provide a sense of euphoria that allows any anxiety to leave and you can realise everything is alright. Can say that I can highly recommend this plant to anyone who is looking to do their own first grow and it has been a pleasure growing with you all.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 13 - First cut from what will be a long evening!

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 13 - And trimmed and ready for drying

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 13 - All the smaller branches now taken off and left with the main colas. You can really see the advantage of LST here

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 13 - Of course I had to try a bit during harvest time.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 13 - I really didn't expect this much when I started. Maybe half or a third. Just goes to show how much reward you can get for good caring of this plant.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 13 - Obligatory Pax included. Here we can see the full yield on branches with the trimming for butter :P

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 13 - Here it is drying away.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 13 - All Jarred up and looking Great! Got 110g here. Used the orange peel trick to add back some moisture. It seemed to have worked.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 13 - Here it is in one pile :)

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 13 - I decided to take the trimming and decarb it out.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 13 - All dried up and ready for the butter!

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 13 - Add butter to a pot and melt with a little bit of water to keep the butter moving and not sticking

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 13 - Add the decarbed trimming and let simmer for an hour or two.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 13 - Should be left with a nice slosh of trimming and butter when completed.

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 13 - Pour the butter out into a bowl

First Time Blueberry Autoflower. Week 13 - And then into a pyrex jug! You can see everything separating here.

GrowinStrainz The strain was incredibly fast and easy to grow. I would highly recommend doing LST on this strain as it takes to it very well and I was able to double my yield from what I have seen from others. The plant toke well to the small grow tent which I had and it didn't feel like it was suffering from it. The only issue I had with the overall grow was the drying. I was out of town for that part and it may have got a little too dry but its all jarred up now and looks and smells great! I did cut the nuits a little bit too early but I wasn't sure how long it would take to get to harvest. I can't complain because cutting the nuits has made it an incredibly smooth smoke with a nice after taste. The bud fluffs up nicely when ground and it seems to really release it smell when ground.

Looks good 😁👍 I wouldnt recommend to use a transparent pot because roots dont like light ✌️

GrowinStrainz commented8y ago

@KrautFabrik, Thank you for the advice! I changed the pot as soon as the roots started to show. I only had two clear orchid pots so I thought they might work for the initial stages, but its good to know for the future. The final stage pot is not transparent 😊(Photos been updated). It seems to be loving it so far! Onwards and upwards. 🙌

Tuning in for this, best of luck! 😄 Your lighting schedules says 12 hours. Are you doing 12/12 from seed with an autoflower?

likes

GrowinStrainz commented8y ago

@HighTV, Glad to see you're tuning in. It's my first grow so hopefully it will turn out ok. I've only set it to 12 / 12 for germination, once its sprouted I'm going to up it to 18 / 6. My tent is quite small ( 50 x 50 x 100) so hopefully it will work out well. I'll post up photos for you to see later. Ive it set up to the main ventilation in the house as well as an extractor at the top of the tent to remove any excess heat. Any advice is very appreciated :)
