Critical Kush Auto - Late Summer Season 2024

TommyBVRSA75 Very satisfied in sequence with the third success in germination this season of autoflowers. For me, this is one of the autoflowers of the moment, the one that intrigues me the most, the Critical Kush Auto. This is because the Kush strains are the most incredible genetics I know and I love them... also because I especially like Barney's Farm and finally, because I had a Strawberry Cheesecake Auto from this bank about two years ago and it didn't develop as I expected, and in the end, I didn't get 100% of the terpenes and THC... it was a learning experience about drying and curing that, due to impatience, didn't reach better shores. God Jah and for everything will be there to protect us and I'm really liking the vigor it's gaining in just three days. I saw it very curled up with the cotyledons very whitish, which you can see, and that's revealing of the early stress, but now it's on its way to success with its grooves and dark green color indicating that the root expansion is in full swing. 420 forever and we're very close.

TommyBVRSA75 Well, let's break it down: the latest (so far) of the autoflowering strains of the season - the Critical Kush Auto from Barney's Farm, and as you can see, it's the least developed one at the moment and is going through the most stress... anyway, we'll have to stick to the strategy of short watering throughout the day. Today, day 20, has been the first day of true "organic feeding" with the new Jiji Royal products from Biobizz, and with that, let's see how our Critical Kush Auto reacts. Even though it's only about 5 days younger than its "sisters" of the season, there's already been a need to provide Kelp solution to curb the harsh stress conditions it's been facing, and we'll have to check how it reacts to the start of organic nutrition. Like the "miss" Kush of the season, and due to the high temperatures, its Afghan ancestors will have to step up sooner rather than later, and the explosive development of its Kish genetics needs to happen as soon as possible. As always, keeping Jah God in mind for help, protection, and support for a great grow, I send the usual hug to the brothers, and next week we'll be here. 420 for all and always!!!

TommyBVRSA75 Let's talk about something that is making a very unique difference when compared to many of the organic proposals that a lot of nutrient brands offer. I've worked in more recent times and not with autos, using not-so-simple product plans and seeking professional quality results, but this latest proposal from Biobizz and its Juju Royal from Julian Marley, based on three products and balancing the pH also with the organic pH Down from the line... and yes, with the usual organic nutrients from Biobizz, it's always possible to have acceptable results as long as you're starting out in this, the Juju Royal and so far the combination of its two products for initial moments like the Grow Soldier and the Green Mystic is one of the most impressive things I've seen in organics recently. Simple and due to the heat and light and thermal stress, I've alternated with once a week, foliar and root watering with the dilution of the Kelp solution from Cultivers and on another day of the week, using the Green Mystic diluted at 2ml/L for foliar watering. Then, very simply in the first two weeks, tomorrow I'll finish the fourth watering (one liter per plant every three days of a solution of Grow Soldier at 4 ml and Green Mystic at 1 ml... always keeping in mind that with the water I have in my area, this simple mix sits at 6.30 pH, so there's no need to adjust with the organic pH Down, the pH value of the solution, providing the grows with the solution without a relative need to calculate the EC, which for organic, stays at the ideal point. By the grace of God Jah and the goodness of Juju Royal, I simply invite you to check out what has happened this week so you have a very clear idea of the vitality and quality of nutrition and light plan. 420 always, and just so you know, brother, the Critical Kush Auto from Barney's Farm is already making a statement with a very particular and pungent Kush aroma, at just 16 days of development, and that means a lot...

TommyBVRSA75 And here I am showcasing the automatic #3 from the set, the also notable Critical Kush Auto. The approach to nutrition is similar to those that are already at the end of the vegetative cycle - the Auto Mimosa and the Blackberry Gum Auto, but with the difference that I started applying LST right in the first week so it grows over the edge of the pot. This is because I know the Kush structures very well, both in autos and photoperiods, and taking into account that the Kish genetics have that remarkable property of a huge central cola and knowing that the lateral branches tend to "open" a lot. If you want to develop a good Kush, you need to create the necessary space for those lateral branches to have room to grow... so SCROG will help you "open" the lateral branches and allow light to reach the more inner areas of the grows. Even if it’s not clear in the photos, that work has already been done, and if you notice, an important defoliation has started to structure at the base, as the goal is for the Critical Kush to grow in line with a "lollipopping," which is ultra necessary to obtain good buds. If you don’t give the Kush space to catch inner lights, it won’t reward you with good buds on the central cola and the tops of the laterals, and you’ll end up with "snow" buds and "vampire" leaves that will unnecessarily disperse the intended flowering potential. Not much more for now, I hand over the path and discernment to God Jah to achieve the best possible results, and that’s because if for friends, the varieties that are in development are fine, but for me, the Critical Kush is mine (and it’s not selfish, but also rewarding oneself for the effort made). 420 Always... and next week, I’ll tell you more things.

TommyBVRSA75 Explosive the Kush genetics, and it's easy to understand that Kush strains are, by definition, some of the ones that benefit the most from organic nutrition. Both irrigation and foliar feeding have made the Critical Kush explode, and health shines through in every aspect. If there's a common characteristic among the grows in the first phase, it's that even with relentless heat, with a management of watering in small portions, it has been possible to successfully grow plants that have high demands in terms of nutrition and water needs. As always, keeping the grows with God Jah and 420 always for all the brothers.

TommyBVRSA75 As you can enjoy the photos - the second automatic grow of the first phase of the season with extremely high quality and the potential for a superlative harvest. Simply put, the Critical Kush Auto has also been an automatic strain that has reacted in the best way to the option of organic nutrition and much of how it has been done. I made continuous contributions of solution preparations in small amounts to avoid just large quantity watering that, due to the high temperatures, could later lead to "root cooking" in the substrate with disastrous consequences. So when you transition from vegetative to flowering, the quality of the root system is observed in the magnificent push that in less than two weeks a grow can demonstrate, just like the Blackberry Gum, and here’s why the hybrid material also has indica dominance, even though in this Critical Kush Auto, a lot of sativa has also revealed itself (and I say this because the strong Christmas pine characteristic of the Blackberry Gum with larger fan leaves, in the Critical Kush we have something very typical of Sativa like narrow and smaller leaves and that bushy character without a central cola standing out over the set of branches. Outstanding reaction to organic inputs with a spectacular double expansion in vertical size and an impressive number of flowering sites. The response to defoliation has been incredible with not a hint of defoliation stress and the near certainty of an incredible producer of a top-level Kush, and in that, the smell of earthy Kush terpenes is felt, and what a way. Like with the Blackberry Gum, thanks to God Jah, but a lot to the people who have provided me with everything from the seeds to the nutrients up to this moment, tools for a superweed in the harvest. The coverage of the grow space according to what I have planned is also remarkable so that everything comes out perfectly and very clearly, there is no imbalance - excess or deficiency in this grow, and it has certainly been one of the automatics from my first phase that has left me in a state of permanent contentment. 420 always and that hug until next week.

TommyBVRSA75 As always, right in the middle of the grow cycle, I gift you a video to follow my evolution. It's a privilege to have so many friends (more than just followers) 4:20 Always, and may God Jah keep us safe always. All you need is Love (CANSerbero LIVES)!!

TommyBVRSA75 As you can see, the Critical Kush Auto has been the first-phase grow that has suffered the most from special conditions of high temperature and humidity. This has delayed the start of flowering, and it’s possible to understand that by the beginning of the week, the grow is now gaining its first trichomes and is officially starting its pre-flowering stage. It’s noticeable that in terms of structure, it will have a series of branches with dimensions and structure very similar to that of the central cola, and there has been a need to initiate defoliation and also load up on organic nutrients for the start of flowering. Based on this, it could be a grow with complete results around week 11 as a reference, but it’s clear that by the end of week 7, it will definitely have at least another month for its entire structure to form. The strategy will involve a very solid vegetative sequence structure - it’s a grow that is over a meter tall, and due to the way its internode insertions are, in the coming weeks, I plan to load the grow with higher levels of PK to create speed in bud formation, as well as to thicken the buds and increase the amount of terpenes and resins. Leaving it to God Jah to take command, I hope that by next week (or at least within the next 15 days), we will have a good group of buds in the very nice internodal spaces, keeping in mind that the structure of this hybrid provides conditions for a very good finish. Defoliation and LST twisting space ensure oxygenation and light penetration for the development of the grow, and I have a lot of faith in the result of this almost perfect mix of Critical genetics with the classic Kush. The terpenes are already indicative of those aromatic lemon tones and the classic sweet Kush. God Jah always in command, and 420, sending a huge hug to the grower brothers.
