PapaTerps Kush Mass Auto - Garden of Green
Day 1 - She'll start her journey in a glass of water - seed popped out of its container and dropped into a plain glass of water, placed in a dark cool room.
Day 2 - Seedling moved from water, to dark humid environment - a dense cleaning sponge, saturated in tap water (RO, pH 6.5)
Day 3 - Seedling had an acceptable tap root, so it was moved to the main grow pot. Watered with 250ml RO pH 6.5.
Day 5 - Seedling shell has fallen off, but a small portion of the membrane was still keeping the leaves from opening up, so I removed that with a small tweezers.
Note: this diary was moved from my Summer Grow diary, with Papaya Cookies Auto and Amnesia Haze Auto, to its own diary, because half way through the grow cycle, I realised that she wasn't autoflowering, but actually a photoperiod.
I had removed her from the tent to outdoors, but now that my Summer Grow is complete, I will move her back into a tent with a 12/12 scheduled, to get her to flower.

Day 16 - Water upped to 500ml, with a few more nutrients added - pH'd to 6.5.
Day 18- Watered again with 500ml of the same solution.
Day 20 - Waterd again with 500ml of the same solution
Notes:
- it was extremely hot this week, so I watered three times rather than my usual twice per week.
- she has struggled in the heat, with her growth being significantly less than other plants in the grow room.

Day 22 - Watered with the same solution as last week, 500ml + nutrients, pH'd to 6.5.
Day 25 - Watered againg with 500ml of the same solution.
Notes:
- still struggling in terms of growth, but big enough to start LST.
- I've started low stress training on her, by pinning down two of her larger fan leaves, to allow for more light to reach the nodes at the bottom of her main stem.
- I've also removed one leaf, which was in the way of everything.

Day 28 - Watered upped to 1L and I've introduced a few extra nutrients to the solution - as always, pH'd to 6.5.
Day 31 - Watered with 1L of the above solution.
Notes:
- I'm pretty sure the hot weather from the weeks before have stunted her growth, which is a real shame.
- I've stopped LST on her, just to give her more time to grow.

Day 33 - Watered with 1L of the same solution as last week, but I've upped the ML/L on some of the nutrients + pH'd to 6.5.
Day 37 - Watered with the same solution as above.
Notes:
- She's looking really healthy, but shes just not growing at the rate I expected her to... but shes getting there!
- I've read other diaries on this site, that say this one might be a photoperiod...
- I've also restarted the LST on her, by pulling the main stem closer to the tent structure.
- no sign of any pistils yet.

Day 40 - Water upped to 1.5L of the same solution as last week - pH'd to 6.5.
Day 43 - Watered again with 1.5L of the same solution.
Day 45 - Watered again with 1.5L of the same solution.
Notes:
- she is still in Veg after six weeks, which makes me believe previous claims that this Auto, is in fact, a photoperiod... π€―
- I've continued to train and defoliate her.
- I'll give her another few weeks; if she doesn't hit bloom this week, I'll have to remove her from the tent. π’
To Highlight:
I will be away for a couple of weeks from this point, the next diary will be from week 8. While I'm away, she will be using a ground fed system (Spider Farmer's Self-Watering Fabric Pot Base) with a 100L reservoir + enough nutrients for that time.

Day 58 - Watered with 3L of water with nutrients + ph'd to 6.5.
Day 61 - Watered with the same solution.
Day 64 - Watered with the same solution.
Notes:
- She has tripled in hight since I last saw her, looking healthy with good internodal spacing.
- She smells really good, but still no signs of pistils or flower; this one is definitely a Photoperiod and will require a 12/12 to flower.
- I've removed her from the grow tent, she will spend some time outside and will hopefully continue to veg under natural light.
- I've also removed her from the ground fed system.

Day 79 - Watered with 3L of water with the defined nutrients + ph'd to 6.5.
Day 83 - Watered with the same solution.
Notes:
- Now that my Summer Grow (G1) Autoflowers have been harvested/about to be harvested, I've switched the light schedule over to a 12/12 and re-added her into the tent. I have a 2x2 arriving in the next few days, and I will be swapping her into that tent later, so I can free up the 3x3 for my Winter grow (G2).
- She is sill in veg mode, but she is looking good and still has a good smell.
- I defolated her lower most leaves and remove all nodes below the top 3/4 nodes on each stem.
- with the 12/12 schedule now in place, hopefully she'll start to flower; it has been a long road for this "Auto" π

Day 86 - I've moved her from the 3x3, which is on a 18 hour light schedule, into a 2x2 with a 12 hour light Schedule, she will spend the rest of her lifecycle here.
Day 89 - water with 3L of the solution, pH'd to 6.3. I've also removed a few of her older fan leaves.
Day 91 - on her daily inspection, I've noticed a few pistils appearing around her top most nodes! She's in flower π€π»
She's been on this 12 hour schedule for about a week, so this proves that this type of strain is NOT an auto flower, but perhaps a fast flower. We shall see how long her flower cycle lasts. The details on the packaging said around 40 daysπ€π»

Day 95 - her transition from Veg to Flower is progressing nicely, a lot of growth around each node and white pistils have started to appear at her bud sites! I've upper her watering from 3 to 4 liters and I've upped her nutrients amounts also, as I was seeing some signs of deficiencies.
Day 98 - watered again with 4L + nutrients, pH'd to 6.3 - she's going well, more and more pistils appearing each days; even now at her lowest most bud sitesππ»
Day 101 - watered again with 4L + nutrients, pH'd to 6.3. I've removed a few of her lower most bud sites, as they were just too far from the light source, I've also removed a few leaves from the top, as they were blocking lower bud sites. So far, I'm very happy with her progress - a month ago, I was debating whether to throw her out or now! Sometimes being stubborn is a good thing π€£

PapaTerps Day 104 - so far so good, I've watered her today with 4L of RO tap water, pH'd to 6.3. She's stretching really well, bud sites are popping up all over her and her leaves have started to grow trichomes.
Day 107 - watered again with 4L of the above solution.
She smells so good, she always has, but it's becoming more and more intense each day! She's definitely a Kush and I have really high hopes for her!! π€π»
I've noticed that she has a strange mutation, where her leaves grow from the center of the stem out, I've counted up to 15 leaflets in some instances; a photo of one is included in this weeks selection.

Day 109 - watered with 3L of RO tap water and the defined nutrients, pH naturally came to 6.2, so I decided to leave it at that ππ». She's still stretching and more bud sites have appeared on her, I'd say she has another week or so before this transition stage is complete - her amazing smell is so strong now, you can smell it everywhere when the tent is open!!
Day 111 - watered with 3.5L of RO tap water with nutrients, again the pH came to about where I wanted; 6.3, so no need to do anything π€π» I removed a few of her top fan leaves to allow more light to get to the lower bud sights. Currently the lamp is set to 80% and is around 10cm from the canopy, today I will move the lamp up to 15cm and bump the percentage to 90%.
