Blue Cheese F1 automatic
Welcome to my Zamnesia Blue Cheese diary. I will be growing one plant in Happy Frog soil and the other in Coco Coir Bush Doctor both with Bliss Myco added. This is a test of a coir-based soil for future grows. I chose Blue Cheese F1 Auto since F1s should be stable and look the same in structure. I started in these in a cotton pad January 1. Happy New Year 🎉 friends, growers and lovers of green.
Jan 3rd I moved Pink Rozay (1), Blue Cheese (2) which were the ones with tails out and Runtz (1) and Love Potion (1) all to soil.
Since I am growing thru Valentines day, I decided to do a dreamy theme of love of wine, cheese and love potion.
I started seeds 1/1/25, just after the new moon on 12/30. Interestingly it was a rare black moon, the second new moon of the month. The 5 days following a new moon are the optimal planting times for above ground crops. I'm trying to follow Farmer’s
Almanac on gardening by moon phases. I’ll try to remember to note lunar actions i future comments if they apply.

Blue Cheese F1 Automatic offers massive flavour courtesy of a complex yet complementary terpene profile. This F1 strain is derived from a pairing of Blueberry and Cheese, and demonstrates exceptional vigour and uniformity. The seeds of this strain grow into strikingly similar plants with comparable yields, making for a more reliable cultivation project. Blue Cheese F1 Automatic is suitable for a wide range of environments and can thrive with relative ease without the need for round-the-clock maintenance. All it takes is 10 weeks from germination before Blue Cheese F1 Automatic is ready to harvest. Plants grown indoors have the potential to produce around 500g/m², whereas outdoor projects will return between 100–200g/plant. However, both stay pretty close to the ground, typically maxing out at 60–90cm in height. Bearing a THC content of 21%, Blue Cheese F1 Automatic leans on her heritage to offer giggly and relaxed effects that are perfect for solo sessions as well as social gatherings. With a ton of tasty terpenes to her name, Blue Cheese F1 Automatic's buds are bursting with skunky cheese mixed with a bit of blueberry, mint, and diesel for good measure.

Week 2 1/12-18
Blue Cheese 1 is the coco coir soil blend test and is 1.5”. Blue Cheese 2 is in happy frog soil, is 2 inches tall and appears to be slightly bigger than bc1. Neither blue cheese plants show any calmag deficiency, but all plants are now receiving calmag each watering because Runtz and Pink Rozay both had brown tips.

Week 3 1/19-25
This was a big week for Blue Cheese gals and Pink Rozay. They got topped, pinned and defoliated on 1/20 with pics 1/20 21, 23 and 25. They handled the topping very well and bounced back with vigor. When I topped the cheeses they were 5 inches tall, I cut off 1 inch and during recovery they grew 2 inches. They are now 6” and very bushy. next week defoliation and more pinning.

Week 4 1/26- 2/2
The Cheese gals are 7 inches tall. I raised the lights to 30 inches above the plant. Pinned more branches and defoliated. You can see in the pic how resilient these gals are, they bounced back after topping and pinning and defoliating.
I add 2 gallons of water to the T700 humidifier daily to keep the VPD in line. I switched from seedling to vegetative at the end of last week.

Week 5 2/2-2-8
The Cheese gals are in full flower and are stretching like crazy. At the beginning of the week, they were 7 inches tall, Wed 10 and today 2/7 they are 14 & 15 inches tall. They have doubled in height.
I’ve moved the pins out to the edge of the pot. For future training, I must add some wires thru the pot holes to keep the branches lower as the outer rim is taller than the center.
I reduced nutrients in the feed solution since Runtz and Pink Rozay are showing some purples/blues in the leaves. These gals are vigorous and don’t seem to mind the full strength feedings. Hopefully they won’t start showing deficiencies.
I added Green Sensation this week then read the instructions said add in 4th week flower.
Blue Cheese is supposed to be a 10 week flower from seed to harvest. If I wait till the 4th week, it will only be used for 2 maybe 3 weeks. Would that actually benefit the plant. So I think I will add some each time but a 25% strength. Calls for 4ml/g I will use 1ml. They are autos and I should be lowering the nutes anyway. Pinned more branches. I add 2 gallons of water to the T700 humidifier daily to keep the VPD in line.

Week 6 2/9-15
The Cheese gals are in full flower, the buds are puffing out and stacking. I even see some lower buds connecting to the upper buds and some pistils are turning brown. There is some smell when I open the tent. The F1 genetics are reflected in that these 2 plants are almost identical.
I don’t see much difference in their growth so far using the different mediums. Soil and soil/coco blend. Maybe harvest will show a difference in yield from each one. Time will tell.
On 2/13 I did major defoliation on my Cheese gals.
I removed all large fan leaves and any leaves shading bud sites. Initially, I thought this would be my last defoliation, however I have heard that 1) they continue to grow new leaves until day 20 of flower and 2) there must be enough foliage on the plant to photosynthesize energy. Well, I hope I left enough leaves for energy to keep bulking up the buds. Stretching has slowed down. Both girls grew only an inch and now 17 inches. This is only the end of flower week 2.
Controller is set to flower. I add 2 gallons of water to the T700 humidifier daily to keep the VPD in line.

Week 7 2/16-22 Flower week 3
The Cheese gals are in full bloom, the buds are puffing out and stacking. I even see some lower buds connecting to the upper buds and many pistils are turning brown. Trichomes are minimal and using my phone, they appear milky. There is some smell when I open the tent. The F1 genetics are reflected in that these 2 plants are identical in plant structure. However, blue cheese 2 in soil is maturing more quickly than BC1 that is in coco soil blend.
Both girls had leaf tips turning up and I thought tip curl was light burn so I took the cheese gals off the crates. I also moved the carrots to the other tent with the veggie seedlings because Love Potion is getting so big,
Another observation BC 1 in coco is showing over feeding by new tips are yellow and most old ones are brown and curling up. BC2 does not show any nutrient issues even though they are given the exact same food. I surely don’t have time for special diets
In addition, Love Potion is getting so big, I took the carrots out and put them in the other tent with the veggie seedlings.
So how’s the weather you ask? So glad to share pics our Record setting major snowstorm. Coastal Virginia got the brunt of this storm. Virginia Beach had 13 inches and my area of Chesapeake had 12” We had 24 hours of steady snow. We took our kitties out when it first started to see how they would react. They loved it. So the following morning we took them out again.
