Spencimelia Hey people, 10/04/25 35 degrees Celsius.. So for this one I'm using a 20ltrs biobizz all mix which might push it for an auto, but we will see. 7 Gallon fabric pot - spider farmer 05/04 - Prep Soaked substrate to promote the life of healthy microorganisms Placed seed in a folded wet paper towel (soaked in diluted organic seaweed extract) then into a shot glass wrapped in cling with holes poked in the top for air exchange. 07/04 Tap root emerges from the husk so I placed directly into soil, 2cm hole, with a makeshift humidity dome. Spraying with tap water and seaweed after bringing the p.h down to 6.5 using pH down solution. 10/04 - Gd entry She breaks surface and is now out the tent in the sun, through a window so getting the greenhouse treatment. The journey begins... Sativa vs Indica BIG EDIT: added another one due to the panic of almost losing the Purple punch. 12/04 Mexican Rush Auto, I haven't seen this stain on Gd so I have literally nothing to compare to. I do love a mystery

Spencimelia 22/04 Late diary entry so will be doing the first 2 weeks... The Purple punch auto got squished! Under a kids toy ball... My kids ... My fault, no harm done other than a couple of (extra) grey hairs on my chin. I propped her up with a stick for 3-4 days until I knew she could support herself. No pics of the incident as I was quik to save a life Mexican Rush Auto breaks surface 2 days after with amazing speed hungry for photons, she is in a much smaller pot with the John Innes compost Not much else to say. Going to train these both to maximize rent usage, comments hints and tips welcome as always.

Spencimelia 22/04 She bounced back! Within no time the stick was removed and she stood tall, but with a very skinny stem still. I decided to do some early training by center holding them down using two bits of soft rubber garden wire for each plant, by the morning they had already turned upright and ready to carry on growing, The high nutrient based Biobizz soil and the damage delay, plus some training, the purple punch is doing amazing for 2weeks in. Mexican rush Auto also shot up with a stretch and I don't think that's the lack of light just natural. So I tied her down too, possibly a bit early, excitement feels the air Oh! And a late happy Easter 420 to everyone!

Spencimelia 01/05 It's been a strange one with timing my diary entries and had a couple of small issues with the green lady's, but! The purple punch auto by RQS is taking the Biobizz all mix soil very well and I ended up topping her just a few days ago I wasnt here to tend to them for 3 days and when I got back I see some nice growth I have now trimmed a couple of the large fan leaves off so I have space to gently hold down a couple branches. The Mexican rush auto is only a few days younger and the difference is massive, obviously a lot of variables, no nutrients yet for either just plain tap water 04/05 Added a couple of pics - she's growing quik And showing signs of pre-flower with the odd white pistil Have just been feeding tap water with a lowered pH using growth technology pH down To around 5.8 - Purple punch auto only Tap water with 0.5/ltr Cal-Mag amino for the Mexican rush auto, growth has been majorly hindered, but il carry it on anyway

Spencimelia 13/05 - Day 33 Not too much to say, I'm happy the Mexican Rush has bounced back a bit, will be small still, but better than I was expecting. After some deficiency issues, given both plants Cal-mag Amino but a higher dose for the lil mis Mexican as she had/has the issue Purple Punch Auto is still doing well with the full on Biobizz soil, has been topped and sides branchs low stress training and every time I cut a few leafs off thinking I got another week... No Two days later if not 24 hrs she looks bushy again lol The lST I could have done it more efficiently, but this is a first for me Keep'n it green 🏻
