Kannabia is responsible for some of my favourite grow experiences, and Mataro Blue in particular was a great strain for me in the evening - super relaxing, guaranteed to put you to sleep. That's why I was very excited when I received Gnomo Auto as a gift at the last Mary Jane trade fair; it's the automatic version of Mataro Blue. My tent has room for three plants, but I wanted more. That's why this grow will be a mini grow. Mini plant, smaller pot and manyfolding. Before anyone gets the idea of commenting that you don't do that with automatics - sue me, I do what I want! :D I loved my first experience with Bio Tabs - great effect for very little effort. So this will be a Bio Tabs grow again. The seed has germinated after 5 days. At the moment the lady is in a 3-litre pot, but that will change as soon as there is more space in the grow box. She won't get much more space - I reckon on 5 or 10 litres at most - but that doesn't matter. This grow is additional luxury.

Merhaba miteinander! Of course we all know that this is no gnome. But it is the most gnome-like of all the figurines in my Lego collection, and beggars can't be choosers. The plant is growing well. The light spots on the upper leaves are genetic, but the yellowish tips of the lower leaves are the result of careless watering - mea culpa.

It's a bit ironic that a plant called ‘Gnomo’, which has to live in almost the smallest of pots, should grow so tall. I waited until 5 nodes had formed and then cut everything back to the third pair of leaves. Small spoiler: Now, two days later, the two remaining branches are already growing like crazy again, I have to think about training every day to keep everything nice and horizontal. All in all, very nice! Hopefully she will wait with the flowering until my plan (to get 4 buds at the end) is realised.

I am new to this mainlining, but the remaining twings grew rapidly and so strong that keeping them horizontal and straight without breaking them is not easy. I'm happy I managed the last two cuts before the first signs of flowering, because I have the feeling that it won't be long from now.

Hey friend, 🧡 Thank you for making such a special space for our Gnomo Auto. We also want to thank you for the kind words you've dedicated to its older sister, Mataro Blue. We hope you form as great a team with one as you did with the other. 🌱 From Kannabia, we're sending you our strongest orange vibes for that to happen!! ✨

Thank you! I'm happy about your support. And I'm looking forward to see what I can do with this gnome. Sorry in advance if mainlining ruins the grow.

Thank you! I thought so, too. I feel a little bad that I gave that beautiful plant a rather small pot, but she doesn't seem to mind too much.
