Hi! I’ve got so many cannabis seeds right now I thought I’d germinate a White Widow Auto from Dinafem. Attempting a mid April Greenhouse grow in Western Europe. Not expecting huge yields here but it’s exciting to see how it’ll turn out.
She is 7 days old as of today and seems to be off to an acceptable start. PH balanced water with rhizoctonic being sprayed directly onto plant and soil.
For anybody interested in plant growing in general, I’ll let you know what else is in the Greenhouse. This is a hobby of mine I’ve been wanting to pursue for a while now and I’m finally in a place where greenhouse gardening is possible. They’ll also act as a good cover for a cheeky Autoflowering girl...
- Sweet pointed peppers
- 10+ strains of hot chillis
- climbing tomatoes
- basil (including clone cuttings)
- coriander
- dwarf beans (purple/black beans
- sunflowers
- raspberries
- strawberries
If you haven’t seen my diaries before then please visit my Triple Cheese photoperiod grow, the three girls have just started showing their lady parts - yay!!
well just lets look whats will come to you. But be prepared for some insects you dont want^^. anf the best is to fight against them with predators, because its no closed envoirement , but semi opened. And yes i agree temperature is a challenge, but you have the big adavatage do have a roof, and a little control about heat, cold and ventilation. I sarted last year in greenhouse and was concerned about the temperatures and the RH. But weed grows under nearly every condition. Ive put them later outside. But my neighbour let them the hole cycle in the greenhouse. His problems e were thrips, mites, and in the late floweringthe humidity. He fought the insects with predatirs that worked bet for it, because sparying does not help... yellowstickers and nematode against thrips. predator mties against russet mites. and ladybug larvae/ladybugs against plantlice/ aphids. Biggetst challenge were lower temps and high th near the end of grow. We gace some airflow and defoilation, but seen alltogether it was successful
Early days, doing this update a day early as I’m away for the weekend.
Hopefully she doesn’t mind being in the greenhouse overnight at about 13oC.
Thought I’d add a few pictures of other plants for your amusement.
Until next week!
Grown a little more since last week. Focus is mainly on the indoor triple cheese photoperiod, so just really letting this auto do it’s thing,
Added some herb pictures for your amusement. The pineapple sage smells AMAZING! Got a lot of non-cannabis plants going on in the greenhouse now.
Since last week I added the following (as well as those added above)...
Thyme
Lemon thyme
Parsley
Cucumber F1
Purple basil
Lemon balm
Pineapple sage
A poorly coriander (cilantro) rescued from a food bank charity I volunteer at (food collection and stock taking mainly)
Hmmm not too happy with this so far. Not the plants fault, it’s the environment. Greenhouse gets too hot, too cold, too low RH, too high RH. I think this must be why it’s discoloured. Feeding a small amount of micro and grow nutes, but I don’t want to overdo it.
Something had a bit of a nibble on a leaf a while back, oh well.
This grow is more of a reflection on my abundance of cannabis seeds, it may be too early in the year for a greenhouse grow here, but hopefully at least some cannabis will come out of it. At some point I’d like to grow some of this White Widow Auto indoors, as I’m much more experienced at controlling an indoor grow now.
Peace out! 🌱
This little girl, through no fault of her own, is taking it slow. The weather here just isn’t good enough right now. Focusing on just pH water with a little rhizoctonic to see how things go.
Not expecting greatness, but then I never was due to starting her early in the year for the climate.
We’ll see what happens...
...check out the Triple Cheese diary, it’s getting closer to harvest now xD 🌱
This girl has shot up in the past two weeks! Not expecting big things from this, but I’m barely giving it any attention. The whole greenhouse is keeping me really busy; the warmer weather has been loved by ALL the plants.
She’s entered flower (hence the stretch) , and every third watering she gets a small amount of nutrients. You’ll see in one of the pictures of the greenhouse that there’s another cannabis plant - a Lemon AK from a Fastbuds. I have 10 seeds and I’ll be growing a bunch in the indoor tent before long. No harm in adding one to the greenhouse!
So for those interested in the other plants, below is an updated list of everything in the tent...
- 10+ hot pepper strains
- sweet pointed peppers
- red vine tomatoes
- purple dwarf beans
- basil (+ clones)
- oregano
- lemon thyme
- normal thyme
- pineapple sage
- sunflowers
- lavender
- black grape
- cucumber
- strawberry
- raspberry
Inconsistent updates from me, because I’m mostly leaving this girl to do her thing. Slow and steady, tiny plant due to cold start/too early in the season.
However, decided to bend it down a bit to promote some lower growth. You can see what I’ve done today in the pictures.
Not expecting much more from this girl. But she smells delicious! When I entered the greenhouse I could smell her, but only just. The fruit and vegetables surrounding the cannabis mostly dominate the overall odour however.
Added a picture of one side of the greenhouse, which is where this girl stays. You’ll also spot a Lemon AK Auto amongst these plants - she doesn’t have a diary on here, but I might make one tomorrow. Just did some pretty weird LST on it just for the fun of it. Managed to promote lower growth to shoot up, creating some top sites.
Took the woman in my life on holiday a few days ago. The growth of everything in the Greenhouse was great to see.
Cya!
Had to chop this miniature girl down. Bud on the top started getting some kind of bud rot - the hassles of growing in a greenhouse I guess!
The size of this girl is entirely my own fault - germinated too early, but I already knew this, it was more of an experimental grow not a serious one. Started off too cold.
Very little nutrients given, very little care given. The end product, although tiny in quantity, smells lovely and has a delicious ‘dutch’ taste to it! The aftertaste takes me straight back to The Netherlands, which is odd, but exciting.
Currently have two of these girls sharing an indoor tent with two other strains, go check it out! It’s my second indoor auto grow (that is taken seriously) and it’s already better than my first auto grow.
