Well, this one was my first purple/black strain , came out great if I'm honest ! Much stronger than I expected it to, just as strong if not stronger than what I tasted at the rec shop lol. Cant believe you can rival rec shops with autos and folks arent doing this more. Maybe it's convenience sake ? Great grow from the start, got some great vibes from St. Thomas himself at first i had no hopes these would sprout but they did and they overtook all the other sprouts in the propagator, planted them in amended soil that I amended with Mr. B's Bloom and the veg one at 5gs an L. Rippened in 64 days from sprout ! Tall, straight up with a rudiralis structure but with a few more flower nodes. Pushed out these thick indica leaves, then these amazing "strawberry" -strain like flowers that I loved. Had to support the side cola as they were almost as long as the main .The plant sort of "shivered" and bled purnurples from the tip of the flower down to the leaves starting from week 3/4. Even the most recent sugar leaves show the royal purple-colored blood searing across its veins ! The root ball was pretty small actually, i'm fairly certain you can get identical results as i did in a 2 or 3 gallon pot, and you can fit 12 to 15 of those in a 4x4 which would be 400-450gs/M2 in SOG! Covered in trichs, jarred it in miron glass, came out nice and sticky two weeks later. Smells like lemon peel and strawberries in the jar, in the grinder smells like lemons and the smoke is smooth, really tastes like grape skittles actually or (sweet) sour grapes maybe? Came out incredible. Strong, like I said, really smooth smoke, snow white ash, and it litterally tastes like grapes. Can't believe it how much it tastes distinctive, i'm guessing the rudiralis cross really supports the grapey taste. when you're pulling the smoke is sweet and a grapes, and it's not other berries, it's really grapes. For sure one of the better smokes I've ever had, and I smoked some GSCxGrape cross recently, these reminded me of that smoke but better on the grapes-side of things, still earthy though maybe a hint of coffee... sweet on the inhale and earthy on the exhale. The smoke is puffy, a sedative strong immediate head buzz, then it numbs you out a bit after an hour or so. It's an all up weed for me, but not exactly a day time smoke , this is gonna be my night time and day time companion ! It the kind of weed you want for watching a movie, video games, chilling with friends. The buds themselves were all purple covered in those oily white trichs, i loved the bud structure on them but when they dried it seemed like they suffered a bit from the heat the last two weeks of its life. Bag appeal is incredible, with the frost covered royal purple buds with the orange hairs, i mean it's gilded af !

I used the biotabs as a supplement to the mr.B's in the final stages of the amendment process, these played a minor role, but were used at the start of the grow, i liked the idea of bactrex, and i now understand orgatrex is an organic NK 4-4 fertiliser. The boom boom spray came clumpy, i didnt realise that i had to shake it , and i quickly switched to my own amino acid concentrate.

2 months and 3 days this auto is a killer, I put her in a 5 gallon pot, because why not? well first of all her root ball was tiny i'd be surprised if she went all the way down actually. You'd easily fit her into a 2L pot and get a ball park result. I might add a few in my next grow to fill the space beween the tray and the wall I have just enough space for one row in a 4x4 that's like 8 plants lol . If i do that I'll cross her side colas in front of her so there's no damage with the tent when it get sucked in when it's closed. What I really want to do is to do a full tent with these little pots, maybe do it SOG coco, because you can get a shit ton of the small pots in there then pull a decent amount of bud - strength in numbers! The harvest went okay, went in chopped it down at like < 5% ambers all milky not clears. hung it up to dry, it was moist the first three days but then on day 4 it dried out almost instantly, i pulled it and jarred it with boveda 62% (I couldnt find the 58s anywhere??) stems and all, prayed for 10 days, didnt open them, no burping necessary, not really with what happened and the boveda in there. Came out incredible. Strong, like I said, really smooth smoke, snow white ash, and it litterally tastes like grapes. Can't believe it how much it tastes distinctive, i'm guessing the rudiralis cross really supports the grapey taste. when you're pulling the smoke is sweet and a grapes, and it's not other berries, it's really grapes. For sure one of the better smokes I've ever had, and I smoked some GSCxGrape cross recently, these reminded me of that smoke but better on the grapes-side of things, still earthy though maybe a hint of coffee... The plant itself grew just like other rudiralis-dominant strains I've had, straight up in a pinetree shape, side colas grew almost as tall as the main cola the end. She had really thick indica leaves, amazing green colors on the stems even after the chop, that contrasted with the incredibly dark purple and royal purple flowers. Straight from the start of flower the purnurples started creeping straight from the flower nodes onto the leaves. Their coloration process was really amazing to watch happen purples literally bleeding onto the leaves. as she flowered, her nodes opened up in typical "strawberry"-strain fashion, like making those nice open flowers, full of trichomes and sugar leaves covered in trichs and oil. Loved it ! She didnt really smell that loud until the very end then she really smelled strong like lemon peel, a testament to how strong she actually is. If I find the space, i'll try to make some extracts from a full tent, probably the best vape juice anyone ever has tasted.

Hey bro, if you are still in Thailand, I think gray mold and powder mildew don't like temp higher than 25 C. On the other hand, we do have plenty of other colorful molds that do like higher temp.

@Med_in_Tropic, nah man back in the slums ๐Ÿ˜ญ please dont talk about mold lol i'm stressed out daily as it is lol got some beneficials i'm gonna add... before i started my grow i went over all the surfaces with a sponge moist with dishsoap , all the intakes are covered by protective mousse like whats on your filter... i'm so paranoid, i can see the spider mites on my balcony , maybe i'll get some ladybugs as a preventative measure lol
