TanteEgan Hey my friends,
I set the next seed after lunch on Wednesday directly into pre-watered 100% BB Light Mix and sprayed my GW-Premix every evening and morning.
This moring (Saturday) it was the time to put out the head, so please kindly welcome our 5th run of my '25 Autoflowering Project called Epsilon F1 👋
It's the third F1 of RQS I'm growing and we will see if the promises of one of the fastest F1s are justified 😉

TanteEgan Hey buddies,
the first week of our 5th run is finished. On day 5 I repotted our little lady to a 11l fabric pot with BB LightMix this time cause the Epsilon F1 Strain is called to be not that high and I want to get a little higher yield this time. So we will see if I have success 😉

TanteEgan Hey my friends,
after 3 weeks our second F1 called Epsilon has gone bushy. The leaves got taller and new internodes evolved in a short distance. I think the stretch will start next week cause there are the first signs of bloom coming out. I'm very exiting how tall she's going to be in the 11L pot 😇
TanteEgan Hey my hobby gardeners,
Almost four weeks are done and slowly we get into the flowering stage. Everything seems fine and Miss Epsilon is going to get thirsty now. She raised her size a lot in the last days and the first little white hairs are showing up, tellin' me that the stretch has begun. To help the little lady enjoying the light and to give a little more space to breath, I will remove some of the oldest and biggest fan leaves next day.

TanteEgan Hello and welcome back,
last week the Epsilon started flowering very intensely. I thought there will be some more stretch but the girl is still a little chubby. Nevertheless there are a lot of buds starting to grow and also slowly comming to the light. I started to remove the first fan leaves to create some space. Next week maybe I remove some more, but I still want to wait for a little more stretch and not overstress the little lady.
TanteEgan Hey my friends,
the Epsilon is really a kind of a bonsai strain. It stopped stretching at 45 cm even with the 11L pot and now it paces through the flowering time. Even the little lady is still very bushy I decided only to cut off some of the oldest fan leaves at the main branch and at the lowest side branches. For now it seems that it's not a big problem and the buds are growing extremly fast everywhere.
TanteEgan Hey mates,
the little chubby bush's buds are getting also thicker and thicker. I'm still a kinda shocked how short the lady is, but there are a lot of leafy buds everywhere so everything is fine. I started to take some more leaves off to give her more space, cause the humidity was a bit high sometimes last week.
TanteEgan Happy to have you back here again,
Week 8 is over now and the harvest is close already. RQS said something about 60 days from germination to the final and it looks like this could be working for me. I already checked the trichomes with the microscope and it looks like there is only around one more week to go.
I also started to take some more single leafes from the bottom and the inside of my little bush but it looks like I did almost nothing 😅
So I think next week there will be a little mess with cutting but overall the lady's buds look and smell quite nice already.
Very tiny and bushy plant. Seems to be nice for an ambush balkony grow or sth. Only problem could be the smell but it was not too heavy.
In 11 L pot I got an average harvest which could be way higher with more trimming and lollypopping I think. The smell and taste is a little berry with some lemon notes. I harvested a bit too early (wasn't at home some time afterwards) so the high very smooth and a little animating
TanteEgan Ladys'n'Gentleman,
I'm back and have some fresh news. It was time to cut down run #5 the tiny Epsilon F1 bush. Sorry for not updating you for a while, but I wasn't at home for some time. This is also the reason why I had to harvest some days earlier, but nevertheless here we are with the final result.
I got out 23,4 g dry clean cut buds finally. Due to the leafy appearance it was really a mess to cut out all the sugar leafs. On the other hand there is a good base for some nice bubble hash i think 😎
The smell and taste is a little berry with some lemon notes and the high is smoth and a little uplifting.
So overall it's was interesting to see that kind of tiny bushy plant. Next time I think I could trim a lot more. I think there is some more potential regarding the yield.
I am just on my first grow so I appreciate the diary you have with just defoliation. I am taking the minimalist approach with mine. There are so many others topping the auto flowers and using extensive LST but I read so many recommendations not to. Yours looks healthy, bushy, and will likely give a fine harvest.
Good Luck with your Project mate ! Happy easter :D looking forward for the next weeks just keep up your great work the Ladies loving it ! Maybe take a look at my "Sweet Seeds Forest :D i would Really apreciate that Growmie !
