masterofsmeagol I has going to take the year off growing due to a number of reasons. I didn't think I would be able to devote the time necessary to succeed. I didn't want to miss out on one of my FAVORITE activities. I usually start WAY earlier. I am attempting to germinate a few strains that I have that were freebies from other orders. I went with mainly autoflowers this year due to me having them and me feeling like I'm starting late. I've never grown autoflowers so this will at least be a new experience. I'm contemplating starting a few more photoperiod seeds. I have several strains I do well with. In particular I still have MK Ultra and 10th planet. I'll see how these seeds do and when I get a chance I'll check dispensaries for any quality clones. If I find some good ones I may grab a few. I guess we'll see what happens. Any advice for an experienced grower who has zero experience with autoflowers and is intending to grow them outdoors? I'm all ears. 5/27 One of the fat face autos and it looks like two of the Maine lobstah have popped. The lilac diesel x zweet autos look like they have little tails too so I need to get some soul like today. EDIT: I WENT AND GOT MY SOUL TODAY. MIX WILL BE THE USUAL OF 40% HAPPY FROG 40% OCEAN FOREST 20% ROOTS ORGANIC 707. SIX SEEDS HAVE FULLY GERMINATED AND WERE TRANSPLANTED INTO SOLO CUPS WITH HAPPY FROG AND PLACED UNSER AN AEROGARDEN. ALL 3 MOOSE AND LOBSTAH, BANJO AUTO, 1 LILAC DIESEL AUTO CROSSED WITH ZWEET AUTO, AND 1 FACE FAT. I ALSO STARTED GERMINATING 3 10TH PLANET SEEDS TO ADD TO THE LINE UP IN CASE SOME OF THE OTHERS FAIL. I TOOK PICTURES. I'M NOT REALLY LIKING HOW THE 10TH PLANET SEEDS LOOKED BUT THEY WERE STORED IN ORIGINAL PACKAGING WITH THECREST OF THESE SEEDS. EVERYTHING SHOULD BE GOOD. COULDNT UPLOAD PICS DUE TO SLOW INTERNET 5/28 I checked to see if I had anymore seeds that germinated but unfortunately nothing has germinated yet. It's only been about 12 hours for the 10th planet so we'll see how it goes. I USUALLY have great germination rates. I didnt use mykos transplanting but it should be in the happy frog anyway. I looked around two and I saw two of the moose and lobstah crosses breaking surface. they are the first ones to do so. I took a couple pics I'll upload tomorrow. I didn't have a shot glass with me and the cups looked fairly dry. I don't think I added enough water the soil to begin with. once plants are established I can weigh them. I'll check the other seeds tonight. I also started cleaning my grow cage and I emptied the grow bags. I need to clean them but I won't be using them first a while. 5/29 It's morning and I had a "feeling" so I checked the remaining seeds. The 10th planet looks like all three have germinated (I think ONE may be a little behind butvi'm pretty sure they all had a little tail). I'm going to wait until tonight to do the transplant though. I want the taproom a little longer. The remaining Face Fat seed germinated! I haven't seen a seed germinate like this. I saw one side of the seed look like it was cracking open. I looked on the other side and it had the taproom like running what appears to be up the side of the seed where it cracked. I hope this doesn't impact the transplant and that it's able to differentiate "up from down." I would hope that with the light it will know which way to grow. the remaining two lilac diesel x zweet auto have not yet germinated. That's a bummer because I wad really kookingvforward to trying that strains in this environment. I also noticed that ALL six seeds that were transplanted have broken through the soil! so we are off to the races. I'm going to keep this as germination at least until at least tonight when i transplant the others. I can't upload pictures here and I'm not looking at the seeds again but I'll take a few pictures of what's coming out of the ground. I need to bring over a shot glass for watering. Watered a shot glass worth of water. EDIT: THE FIRST SIX SEEDS THAT WERE TRANSPLANTED LOST THEIR SGELLS AND ARE DOING GOOD. I PUT TGE REMAINING SEEDS (ALL POPPED SO FAR BUT 2 OF THE LILAC DIESEL X ZWEET AUTO). I TRANSPLANTED THE 3 10TH PLANTS THAT ALL GERMINATED AND THE OTHER FACE FAT INTO SOLONCUPS WITH HAPPY FROG AND PUT THEM UNDER ANOTHER AERO GARDEN. I FOUND A COUPLE BEW BILBS FOR THE AEROGARDEN SO I REPLACEF THE WEAKEST LOOKING ONES. I'LL WAIT A LITTLE BIT FOR THE LILAC DIESELS. HOPFULLY THE WILL POP. IF NOT THATS ABOUT AVERAGE. I'M OK WITH 10 OUT OF 12 IF THAT'S WHAT HAPPENS. I'M JUST WORRIED ABIYT TONIGHT AND A MOUSE GETTING ON OF MY TINY SPROUTS. IM TRYING TO THINK OF A WAY TO PROTEXT THEM. MY HOUSE IS CLEAN AND I JUST REDID IT BUT IM STILL WORRIED. I HAVENT SEEN A MOUSE BUT IT DOESNT MEAN THEY ARENT HERE. I SOAKED COTTON BALLS IN PEPPERMINT OIL. I THINK I MIGHT GO GET A TOTE A PLACE THE AEROGARDEN IN THERE FOR THE NIGHT. IT'S PROBABLY OVERKILL. THEY ARENT FAR ALONG. I HAVE A PLASTIC HUMIDITY DOME AT MY DADS THAT WOULD PROBABLY COVER THEM. I THINK I'LL BE OK. I SAID THAT THE NIGHT I LOST ONECOF MY 10TH PLANET GIRLS. DIFFERENT LOCATION AND I KNEW THERE WAS A MOUSE PROBLEM. THESE ARE ON THE KITCHEN TABLE WITH PEPPERMIND OIL SURROUNDING THEM. WE'LL SEE WHAT I FIGURE OUT. 5/30 I'm feeling better about this late start. It was 39° this morning when I looked. I assume mich colder at night. The seedlings have really come alive. We are past germination with pretty much everything. Even the germinated seeds that were planted into solos yesterday are showing helmet heads out the top. using the TWO aerpgardens was a good idea. I also found a little fan that charges with a USB. It's pretty powerful and it stands upright on it's own. It also has a mist function which I used for a little bit to raise humidity. I keep the fan on the lowest setting just to circulate the air. I'm pleasantly surprised to see the growth of the seedlings so vigorous. I DID have to help one of the moose and lobstah crosses remove a particularly stubborn seed. I got it off without damaging the seed. I have not yet checked the last two Lilac Diesel x Zweet Auto. I have 6 GOOD photos (3 m&l x slh and 3 10th P) if the autos don't do as well as I hope they do. I'm excited for this season. I need to water today. I've got to get a few things from my dad's too. I believe this will probably be the last germination entry. Dependent on how the 3 tenth planet and the other Face Fat Auto do in the soil. the seeds are poking out so I'm pretty sure they'll be ok. I need to check on the remaining two lilac diesel x zweet autos. I hope those pop. That was a strains I was looking forward too. I've got one though if they don't. I'll take 10 out of 12 anyway. that's not a bad rate. But honestly they still have plenty of time to pop. That fan is set up with the mister on it is awesome. it's not blowing the seedlings but it's rearranging the air and increasing humidity. Watered the 6 that have lost their shells and have their first tiny TRUE LEAVES with a shot glass of phed water. The temp reads 80°f at what looks to be the hottest spot. The other 4 that are transplanted have all reached the top of the soil and are peaking out.. ONE of the lilac diesel x zweet looks like it's splitting but we'll see. I'll probably change this to week one of veg tomorrow. These things grow so fast I'm fairly certain these helmet heads will drop thir shell by tomorrow but we'll see 5/31 The four other seeds that I transplanted all have pushed past the soil. I've got one 10th Plandt that is pretty tall with a helmet head. It looks like a big seed. I'm hoping the plant can shed it alright. The original six are ALL doing great. They are growing at an astonishing rate! I didn't take pictures but tomorrow I'm switching this to veg. The original 6 that were transplanted all have their first true leaves. I noticed a couple that MAY be stretching a bit. However, when I changed the light LAST time with seedlings it was too much and negatively impacted them. I'll keep an eye out but it looks like only one seed is really stretching. I need to leave more room in these solo cups. that way if they stretch i can just add more soil. I've got a ton of shit to do. I need to clean amd sanitizer my grow cage and bags. Spray the cage itself for insects and who knows what else. I'm actually glad that I'm not outdoors yet. It's been in the middle 30's here when I get up around 5a.m. some local growers (not GOOD growers but people that regularly grow) have had some bad luck due to the cold weather. I'm hoping that me starting late will give the plants their best chance to survive and finish properly. I'm stoked to try some Auto's! It would be great to have finished product before the cold rains and shitty weather of fall here. But I don't need to RELY solely on autos (which i have no experience with) as I have the 3 virile Moose and Lobstah cross that was SPECIFICALLY MADE for this environment and the 3 10th Planet that I've grown for two seasons. I think this was a good way to approach this. I haven't even checked on the last two lilac diesel x zweet seeds. I'll check today and still give them a bit but tomorrow this changes to veg. I'll try to get some pics. One more thing. Temps seem to be holding pretty steady around. I downloaded a great app on my phone to measure par levels in ppfd. at least that way I can tell if the old aerial garden lights are doing their job. I had just switched bulbs on one of them and had measured last year so I KNEW that one was good. measuring the other one I could tell the were super old bulbs. I ended up moving two cups to the "good" aerogarden lights as there was room and they got better readings. luckily I was able to find the "sweet spot" on the other aerogarden amd was able to get those seedlings around 190ppfd. The others are approx 200s-300s. Fine for now. 1 l.d. broke part of it's shell and looks like its trying to germinate. Got two clones today JUST IN CASE. Rude Girl and Blueberry Muffin. Transplanting AT LEAST the autos and the two clones tomm.

masterofsmeagol 6/1 Week got changed to veg. I reached maximum length last time so I need to shorten these entries up. I got a par meter app on my phone. the aero garden lights are bright. some of the seedlings look a little crisp on the coyt leaves so I raised it. I was going 24 but I changed it to 18/6. I think that was wise. One seed fell off the plant in the dark. Forgot to check on the Lilac Diesel seed but I'm sure it will be planted today if it has a root showing. I was right and and I planted the newly germinated lilac diesel x zweet auto. I have a couple 10th planet seedlings that have helmets heads. I had another that I manually removed and the next morning it looked as good as the rest. I'll see how it goes. 6/2 The Lilac Diesel x Zweet seedling i planted has not broken ground. It was a stunted seedling so I'm not expecting much. I successfully removed a helmet head from a 10th planet and it flourished and in one night caught up to everything else. I removed another helmet head last night but unfortunately took one cotyledon leaf with it. It looks like it was starting true leaf development and it looks like it will make it. I have two other seeds that are struggling. The second Face Fat seems to be slower. Its got a small stem but the seed should be further along. I didnt plant the 10th planet deep enough. That's probably why I ended up with a couple helmet heads. The other is another tenth planet. The seeds are just super tough it seems. I'm torn between intervening and letting it do its own thing. the one I successfully helped is doing GREAT. Even the last one I think will survive. We'll see. I make sure to mist hat seed itself to try to "loosen" up the seed and get it to release. Hopfully it cones off itself. I'll intervene if necessary. Everything else is doing fantastic! no pictures today but I may take some later. It's amazing how fast they grow when they are little. I'm excited for the moose and lobsta and to experiment with the Autos. Despite the latest start I think I'll do alright this year. using less soil and making it so I can move (at least the autos) into a nearby building will make a huge difference. I can isolate them from storms or even from bugs that are active at night. not planning on bringing them in much but the option will be there if necessary. I decided to try again to remove the remaining 10th helmet head. Luckily I was able to get that hard ass seed off without damaging the cotyledons after soaking it first a few days. The one I DID damage has its first true leaves growing the the ONE left turned from yellow to green overnight ci can see the first true leaves. this one went awesome and looks just like the one that has now caught up with everything else. Yellow coyts that are together and sideways but that's how the other was and the next morning it looked like the rest! I may have to take the seed off the other fat face. I should've buried it deeper. Watered anything that was in 20 grams of dry weight with a shot glass if water. 6/3 Removed all the helmet heads today. one seed didnt germinate at all. one barely did and I had to remove the seed from it. Not sure if it will make it. had to remove some helmet heads. They are doing fine. Even the one I ripped one of the coyts off. The seed I planted anyway probably won't make it. The other two needed the seeds off. Went well. Hopfully it turns out as well as it did with that 10th planet. Can't even tell. It is cold as FUCK this morning. No way these seedlings could survive these temps. I can't believe its so cold. If its not in the 30's its damn close. 6/4 The face Fat Auto i removed the seed from doesnt look like its going to make it. the lilac diesel seed that had barely germinated isn't going to either. I had ky doubts. the 10th P seedlings that I had to remove the shell from (all 3) are going to survive. one is thriving and keeping up with the earlier seedlings. The other two are a little stunted but they will pull through. I'm thinking about adding a clone or two to the garden. I just need to check out what they've got. I dont want to leave autos in solos for very long. the nights will be warming up soon. I'm getting anxious. these should already be out. it's fine though. I'll go clean my bags today and get everything ready for their final home. maybe plan on transplanting in a week or so. Hopfully by then. I'll need to harden them off for sure. I just have to keep reminding ding myself of my cousin showing me his seedlings this time of year last year and his plants were bigger than mine! I need to do this CORRECTLY. I'm going to have to harden these plants off before they can be transplanted. It's nice out today. I think i might take the opportunity to put the seedlings in some I direct sunlight (shade) for a little bit and start the hardening process so it goes smoother when I do transplant. Still have a lot of work to do getting the first al homes ready. I used A.I to help create a plan. plants are outside right now and will spend a couple hours in indirect sunlight. It SAID to put them in the SUN for two hours but I dont dare too. Planning on transplanting monday morning. I'll have to sanitize bags and grow cage and mix soil and get it layered right. Especially for the autos. I may look for a couple clones today. Seedlings LOVED being outside. I'll bring them back out for a little while tonight. I washed and sanitized my grow bags. I used bleach this time. If I had more time I probably would've just replaced them. Just need to mix the soil. I think my cousin is going to grab me a couple clones. If not I'll go this weekend and pick something out. I am nervous putting out plants this small. I think I'm going to bring the autos inside the barn at night. 6/5 Yeaterday I got all grow bags sanitized and cleaned. I used bleach to ensure that things are clean. I rinsed extremely well and may do so again. They've been drying in the sun. All plants were brought outside around 7:30 to get 3 hours of sunlight. I gave them two hours yesterday in the shade and the loved it. It's overcast today so I think its a great time to get those seedlings some REAL sun. The 10th planets I had to remove seeds from are looking like they will survive. The face fat I tried the same thing on seems to be stalled. I left that one indoors. If thats the case it means I've only got 3 autos left. one of each strains. I've got big plans though and I guess how I later the soil will help with the autos. I'm getting a couple clones to add to the garden. This year is going to be more about quality than quantity. I'm contemplating sideline moving the autos every night. I'll see how that goes. I'm nervous putting out such small plants. I may wait for the photos to fill out there cups more before transplanting. We shall see. Seedlings seemed to love the direct sunlight. the clouds had passed and they spent 3 FULL hours in direct sunlight and seemed to love it. I did notice the cups were fairly hot to the touch. I called around about clones in case my cousin fails me. still planning on autos going out monday. I may hold off on the Photo's and allow more root development. I got my soil mixed up today. 40% happy frog 40% ocean forest 20% 707. I left the top all happy frog on the ones for the autos. I may need more soil. My cousin said he'd get me those clones and I think it woukd be a good idea to have a couple as back up. I've never started plants this small outside. 6/6 Weighed the cups and watered the moosecand lobsta with a shot glass. the others seem likecthey can hold off. I two 10th planet that were stunted (due to me NOT removing the helmet heads quickly enough) are doing great and will definitely make it. Yesterday was a long day and a lot of work. I should have the clones this weekend. i'm out of soil though. I need AT LEAST one more bag gor the last plant. More if I do get the clones. i just want clones make sure that I have what I need. starting plantsxthis small outside worries me. Maybe the autos will go out first while I let the photos develop a little more. I'm looking forward to seeing how the sour moose turns out. All plants are outside again today. I timed it fir three minutes but may need to bring them in as its supposed to rain. they've been out one hour but I can hear the rain starting. its not supposed to until 11. I'm keeping an eye out. They did GREAT yesterday at like 88° in full sun for 3 hours. they'll be hardened off enough fairly soon. One of the Autos (lilac diesel x zweet) seems to have a leaf that has three fingers at it's second node. Seedlings spent 3 hours outside in direct sunlight but it was overcast and supposed to rain. 6/7 Plants got 3 more hours of uninterrupted direct sun. that are hardening off nicely. Soil and bags are ready for transplant and the move outdoors. I was planningvon doing this tomorrow but I may wait a little bit. I think I'll at least do the Autos and maybe set up a light in the barn so that I can move them in there during inclement weather. Hopfully ai can get the 2 clones I wanted. thatcway I'll have a back up. I'm just nervous putting out plants so small. I normally have monsters by now. I have a feeling this will be a good year though we'll see.

masterofsmeagol 6/8 I think today is going to be transplant day. At the very least I will transplant the two clones and the Autos. I might do that and see how they react before transplanting the photos. I was thinking and I'm looking at the two stunted 10th planet seedlings and I'm wondering they deserve a spot in my garden. I think I'll just kerp them separately and watch for a week or two. But I think they won't be going in the garden. I need to think about air flow abd placement insidecmy cage and I don't think they are worth the spot. I have one 10 planet that IS doing good and THAT one WILL go in the garden. I'm really excited for the sour moose. It''s already showing vigorous growth. right now my plan is to leave the girls outside for a few hours and if everything goes well (which it has been) then I continue with the plan and the autos and the clones go in final homes today. That's probably smarter than putting everything out at once. I'll judge it later today and my intuition will tell me. I know I started late but I'm still excited for this season! I think it will be a good one! I FOLLOWED MY INTUITION AND TRANSPLANTED BOTH CLONES AND THE 3 AUTOS. IT COULDN'T HAVE WENT MORE PERFECTLY. THE REST OF THE PHOTIS ARE CHILLING OUT BACK. THIS WAY I CAN SEE HOW THEY DO AND PROBABLT TRANSPLANT THOSE TOMORROW. I NEED TO SANITIZE ONE MORE GRIW BAG AND I NEED PROBABLY TWO MORE BAGS OF SOUL. IT SETTLED AND KOOKING AT THE BAGS I WANT THEM TO HAVE THE FULL 20 GALLONS. I'M EXCITED TO SEE HOW THE SOUR MOOSE DOES. I WAS SURPRISED HOW WELL THE TRANSPLANTS WENT. THEY ALL LOOK LIKE THEY'RE LOVING LIFE! I'LL UPDAYE TOMORROW. Grabbed a bag of happy frog and a bag of ocean forest. The last bag will have to be a mix of those two. Plus I'll have enough to top off the other bags and maybe throw something in a 5gal bucket I got ready. photo seedlings ate doing good spending all day outside. They are a little lanky but they are going to be buried right up to the coytledin. The sour moose looks like its loving it. I can't wait to see what it does. Tomorrow morning everything will be in ground. I bought some fresh indoor and the lady at the shop had just sold out of her clones. she said she had 15 a couple hours earlier. To me thats a sign. I think my seeds are going to do great. Shecsaid a lot of people held off and started late due to the rain and the cold weather. I'll wait fir tomorrow for pics. The ones transplanted today look GREAT. 6/9 Finished all transplants by 9am. Autos look fantastic! Clones look great too. Even with the extra two bags of soil I had to leave the 10th planet bag at like half full. i wanted the rest of the bags to be FULL. Oh well. It's over 12 but it sure isn't 20. I'll have more room in the cage this year and air flow will increase. Now I need to do a little more research on EACH strain amd care of Autos. I'm excited even though I'm late. the amount of growth I witnessed yesterday from one dat of full sun seemed unbelievable. it looks like nothings there but give it a few weeks. 6/10 I am SO glad that I got my act together and grew this year. I almost didn't and I would've missed out on these feelings. Things are going GREAT. When I say things are doubling in size its really jot an exaggeration. I watered the autos with a small circle and attempted the same with the other seedlings. I ran out when doing the last two seedlings but I'll get them when I get back. For all the worry about transplanting autos it was all unfounded. so wad the fear that little plants wouldnt make it. in this fenced off cage things have gone excellent (knock on wood). I've kept those two stunted 10th planet seeds. I'll keep them as an experiment. if one comes out of it I may grow it out indoors and use it as a mother plant. Or if they cone out i might just switch to 12x12 and see if they'll flower. They are substantially behind EVEFYTHING else. The MAIN reason I kept them was in case something happened to one of my other seeds. That way I could "replace" a seed if one dumped off or got eaten or something. thats not going to happen though. I've poisoned the ground below which is asphalt. WIth the rate these girls are growing if something was going to eat them whole they'd need to do it quickly. I think the cage offered fairly good protection. 6/11 I've got to take less videos and pictures. I think it would be better just to show one picture of each plant and one video or something. it's easier that way to realistically see the growth. Weather has been great. Got a little light rain yesterday. not much at all. It's supposed to rain this afternoon too. It must be that I started later and thats why I'm not having any stress or anything. Typically its 30° nights if your lucky it's in the 40s. NOW it's in the 50s most nights. I wonder how much time I saved from not having plants stall, reveg or need to be nursed back to health due to the weather. Still I started late. I think I have plenty of time and things WILL finish. I watered everything yesterday. Not much though. the clones will need a good watering. their first one. I'm holding off due to the potential for thunderstorms later. i think these plants could survive a thunderstorm. I hope they don't have to but I think they could. This morning I went around the outside of my cage and fixed what needed it. the fencing was bowed out which could allow entrance to one of the many squirrels or chipmunks. I took lathes and pulled the fencing down low and screwed the lathes over the fence to sucj it in and secure it. They probably wouldnt bother anything but I know they like to play in fresh soil in griw bags. I'm trying to deny them that opportunity. the fender was fine on two sides. i fixed the other and added some other metal frames in a couoke places that needed it. They can still get in but they are going to have to climb over it if they want access. Super happy I decided to do this. Hard to explain the feeling I get when I show up in the morning to see plants all thriving. It's really beneficial. 90° today. Watered everything two gallons total. No thunderstorms. beaded sweat kept following on my phone and messing up the video. next week ill just do one set of pics and a couple videos. im also going to give a snap shot of the weather. 6/12 Rained past night. Plants really liked that rain. they aren't just getting bigger outwardly they are now gaining quit a bit of height. Significantly noticeable growth since yesterday. I'm not putting up any pictures unless I find something necessary. The stunted 10th planet seems to be coming out of it. maybe I'll throw them in a smaller container. they can still go further in the solo cup. I don't think its a bad idea to have a couple extras in case something happens. I did notice one spot on one side of the cage where a rodent COULD get in. I don't think they have because there's vegetation and soil holding it down. If they went through that wouldn't look like that. It's wet out right now though. I'll put a lathe there and screw it to the base. Completely securing it. I'm incredibly impressed that these girls have taken the o9° heat and seemed to LIKE it. I've gotta look at my watering considering the growth I've seen SINCE watering and since the rain. Extremely foggy today. 6/13 I said I wasn't going to post more pictures or videos until next week but I feel like this warrants it. we got almost 2ins or sheet rain last night during the thunder storms. I considered putting (just the autos) in the barn but I was waiting to see if the rain was going to actually hit us as we were on the very edge and I didnt want to get in the habit of moving (fresh transplants at that!) them everytime we might get a storm so I left them. if rained fine for a while. then BOOM. The sky opened and just unleashed sheets of rain. For some reason I was like "they'll be alright, seeds have survived storms since the beginning of time." This morning I went out back and checked my extra 10th p seed in a solo and it was fine (as was the other extra in the solo). At first I was ecstatic seeing everything standing up perfect! i didn't see the lonex10th p in the middle. the rain and wond messed it up. the stem was crimped at the least and it looked like it had been sorta ripped up. It's not much bigger than the two extra 10th planet seedlings I kept in solo cups as extras in case something like this happened. I rounded the soil up around it and buried the coyts. The plant is still covered in dirt and I can't tell if its standing or not as it had a little (sunflower like) bend in it when I transplanted it. that could've been part of the problem. cannabis is resilient. Hopfully it makes it. Luckily if it doesnt seem to be improving by tomorrow I'll replace it with one of the other seedlings. Pleasantly surprised with EVERYTHING ELSE. It probably had sonething to do with the way I planted it too. I had to lay it down kinda bit I didnt really secure it. you can see in the video. Beautiful day out today. Checked plants at noon and they are exploding in growth. The 10th planet will def make it. I'll monitor the condition the next couple days. I'm wondering if replacing it is a good idea since the one in the solo is almost that size and growing rapidly. I'll monitor. 6/14 Everything is looking fantastic. Except the one 10th planet that got the damage from the thunder storm. I took another picture of it side by side with the possible replacement and ill ask a.i. again what it thinks. It's nice to have that option. it's not perfect but its helpful. Judging by pics it gave the seedling a 70% chance of recovery vs 30% needing to be replaced. it said to monitor for a few days and if it doesn't appear to grow THEN I could replace it. Same strain and that other seedling is starting to take off nd it has NO trauma. So we'll see. I'm not sure. the plant looks vastly improved. I just want to give it a few days. New growth is green and its picked back up. I might do a quick video today just in case of storm

masterofsmeagol 6/15 I am sick as hell. 103.7 fever. Had more rain but I put up some pictures and videos. 6/16 Was the first day since using this platform that I didnt inspect my plants. I was just to sick. 6/17 Uploaded a video. Noticed that the 10th planet seedling is been worried about has gotten surpassed by what LOOKS to be an extremely virile plant. it has overcome the other. Chances are I'm going to switch it out. glad I kept those extra seeds. 6/18 Raining fairly steady right now. As you can see in the video the 10th planet seedling that I THOUGHT might be salvagable was overgrown by another 10th planet seedling in a solo cup. I dug the plant up and replaced it with the fresh, healthy seedling. I've been so fucking sick I havent had time for shit. This needed to be done though. Even if it did survive it wasn't going to THRIVE. After I dug it up I could still SEE the stalk where it was just hanging by a strand. Easy to see that this plant was probably not going to make it. So I guess this 10th planet seedling was phenome selected from the 3 seeds I had. Everything else in the garden looks great. WENT OVER AT ABOUT SEVEN. FEVER HAS GONE DOWN SOME. WE HAVE GOTTEN TORRENTIAL DOWNPOURS. THE TREES ARE SIDEWAYS. MY BUSHES ARE JUST BLOWN RIGHT OVER LIKE A BUNCH OF DEER JUST LAID IN THEM. TREES ARE DOWN. MY PLANTS ARE STILL ALIVE LUCKILY. I DID CONE TO SEE THAT MY BEST SOUR MOOSE WAS LEANING SUGNIFICANTLY SIDEWAYS. I ROUNDED A LITTLE SOIL UP THE STEM FOR STABILITY (UP TO THE COYTS) AND USED A PIECE OF STRING I FOUND IN THE CAGE TO SECURE IT TO ITS BIGGER CAGE. EVERYTHING SHOULD BE FINE. TRANSPLANT 10TH P LOOKS LIKE ITS LOVING IT THOUGH. 6/19 This morning looked awesome. It was even hot EARLY. Now I walk outside and I can see little spots of blue but clouds everywhere and tons of wind. Everything's blown over. Except my plants which seems almost impossible. Intuition was on point and that sour mouse i buried deeper and supported with the string is back up looking awesome. Everything is looking good right now. I definitely made the right decision giving up on that plant and transplanting the other. It looks happy as a plumb despite that whole storm ordeal. it sounded like my roof was going to come off. Checked the forecast and the 10 day extended forecast has rain for almost every single day. I dont think thats the way it's going to go but if it does I might consider moving the autos into the barn under an led and a small hps. I don't want you have to do that but it is what it is. if we get horrible weather than what else can I do? 6/20 Added supports to the plants that seemed like they might jeed it due to the strong winds. Sour Moose is continuing to excellent and impress. You can tell it's a strain designed for this climate. It's thriving despite the extremely wet weather we've had. Autos ate increasing in size and doing well. 6/21 Don't know why this was empty. Don't remember anything meaningful so I'll leave it blank.

masterofsmeagol 6/22 The girls are starting to look like proper cannabis plants. I am super impressed the the resilience and the virility of the sour moose. This strain seems to LOVE this climate. Everything has been packing on size despite not having the perfect weather. I'll upload a Pic of our weather for the week. chance of rain most days. I mixed up a half strength solution of big bloom and fed every plant but the three autoflowers. With the soil already hot and the rain we've had i didn't want to take a chance on burning them. I'll see how the photos and the clobes react to a pint of 30ml per gallon Fox Farm Big Bloom. i didn't want to start grow big right off but I wanted to tezr them with something. I also took my extra seedling and just put it in a pile of last years dirt to see what happens. I'm not expecting much. It would've died in that cup. I haven't had to watsr at all due to the rain. The bags are still heavy. I'm going to remain a little careful with the autos. My soil mixture itself typically gets my into early flower without being depleted. with that logic I SHOULDN'T need nutes for the autos until the start to flower. We'll see. WE HAD MORE OF THAT RIDICULOUS SHEET RAIN THAT COMES OUT OF NOWHERE. I WENT AND CHECKED ON THE GIRLS THOUGH AND THEY ARE ALL PERFECT. IT SEEMS LIKE THIS JUST MAKES THEM STRONGER. 6/23 It was raining when I went over this morning but its stopped sense. We got more of that HARD rain. Plants for some reason are loving it and still doing great! 6/24 Finally some nice sunny weather. Plants are LOVING it. I cannot believe the amount of growth happening on these girls. Sour moose in particular is just a great strain fir this climate. Face fat auto is doing just as good the sour moose 6/25 Plants are banging. They've had a couple days of sun and are exploding in growth. Face Fat is starting to preflower. I watched another diary where an indoor grower got like 160 dry grams dry from a 14in face fat auto! Shit if I do half as good as that I'll be ecstatic! it looks great and BIGGER everytime I see it. I'm nervous about adding notes with the autos as my soil is fairly hot. I fed the photos big bloom and they seemed to love it. I might try a small dose of grow big next feed. The Sour Moose seedlings are insane. Super healthy and an extremely resilient strain. I'm very lucky to have won these seeds from Dirty Bird genetics. Actually I think all the seedlings are from North Atlantic Seed Company and are stuff I've won or freebies and they're all doing great! I'm wicked glad I grabbed those clones too. they are doing great too. It's rained so much I haven't had to water at all. I think i watered these girls once. Literally. 6/26 Another rainy day. I guess at least I haven't had to water? Trying to look at it from the positive side. Plants all look fantastic. Clones have already been HSTed so I'm leaving them alone. I don't THINK I'm going to LST the autos (at least the bending the plant over LSTing) as the stalks are so big and they have like five or six nodes. I might do it with a couple of the photos. The 10th planet for instance is much smaller and would probably take well to it. what I plan to do is what I normally do. I put clips around the bag and attach strings to the clips to open the plant up and get light to all the bud sites. It's minimally invasive and I definitely won't be breaking the main stalk. I MAY top some of the photo seedlings. Chances are I will. I have good luck FIMing so I'll probably try that. I may also feed again soon. I've given them big bloom and they loved it but I'm considering adding a little bit of grow big to the lineup. The only thing is is that the plants ALREADY look awesome and are in soil that usually will carry a plant completely threw veg. That's the only thing that bothers me. Giving them something when the don't REALLY need it. Plus with all this rain it's not like them need more water. And everytime it rains they are getting quite a bit of nutes just from my soil. I'll keep an eye on things and I'll document what I do. 6/27 It rained hard last night. it'd overcast around 11 and its supposed to be nice the next few says with chances of thunder storms. I'm lucky my plants are in bags on pallets. I got those clones from my cousin and they have theirs planted in ground. They same steains they have in ground are starting to havecleaves turn yelliw and they look a little sad from overwatering. My "bags" seem able to withstand this torrential rain as they are elevated off the ground and the wind rips through them. The drainage is good. I'm very lucky. Had to take a video because it seems like AFTER these rains the plants jump up a couple inches. The autos are in preflower. It's awesome watching them develop! I am so glad I decided to grow this year. I would've really missed this. Really happy with how things are going and I haven't really had to do shit. 6/28 Beautiful sunny day following all this rain. Still haven't needed to water. The autos are in flower. I honestly think they'll probably finish right when the photos start to flower. I probably should've held off doing a video and waited until tomorrow when I started a new week. I'll be doing more pics. Videos take far to long to upload.

masterofsmeagol 6/29 I woke with a 100° fever again. All the other symptoms are fading so hopfully all this shit will be done with. I took some pictures and took a video. I was planning on FIMing or topping some of the Sour Moose but I decided to feed instead. The plants don't really look like they need anything which was why I was hesitant. I've fed once and due to the rain I haven't had to water. I fed the photos a pint each of 1tsp Grow Big and 3tsp Big Bloom per gallon. I fed the autos with a pint of 4 tsp per gallon big bloom. I'll check thing out tomorrow and see how it's going. I'm going to need to research autoflowers a little bit more and figure out what I should be doing feed wise if anything. My soil mixture is pretty hot and usually takes photos COMPLETELY through the veg state before showing ANY signs of deficiencies. 6/30 We are supposed to get a heat wave. It was 90° yesterday and it's pretty hot today. I decided to give the girls some water. The bags were still heavy but I wanted to make sure they got what they needed so I mixed up two gallons of water. I gave the clones like a powered bottle each which is 1.75 pint. I gave the rest of the girls half a powerade bottle. The bags were heavy so I didn't want to overdue it. The plants seemed to like the food I gave them. I also decided to FIM one of the Sour Moose. Everything seems to be looking good. I had to go around and tuck some of the branches on the clones under their cage. It went well and it seems like the plants are responding well. 7/1 Another very hot day. It's in the 80's topping at probably 90. Bags seem to be keeping their weight tbough. Normally I would be watering much more but the plants would be far bigger. I noticed two small leaves at the bottom of the 10th planet that have a septoria spot. I quickly exfoliated both bottom leaves that were affected and treated the plant with Plant Doctor at a rate of a half gallon to 1.5 tsp Plant Doctor. The extra 10th planet I checked also had several leaves infected with septoria. That plant was away from the cage and a dwarf so I just pulled it and disposed of it far away in the woods. If after another treatment of plant Doctor I see anything resembling septoria I will cull that one two. It's by far the smallest plant. Substantially smaller than her sisters. I'm not going to fight diseases this year. I went through everything and found a rolled up caterpillar on Rude Girl but luckily I was able to get the tip of the leaf off and dispatch the pillar that tried to escape. I'm hoping the FIM will take on the Sour Moose. Looks like it will. Boy these Autos are flowering like crazy! I watered everything. I mixed up a gallon and I had a half gallon already mixed up. I probably should've held off but everything looked dry despite being heavy. And this time last year I was watering like crazy. I need to research Autos a little more. I know they are significantly different and I'm sure underwatering isn't too good for them but I think they've got enough. 7/2 I held off watering today despite the ridiculously high temperatures. I'd rather underwater than overwater. These aren't like that plants I'm used to having this time of year. I'm used to having trees that are sucking up every little bit of moisture. These plants are significantly smaller and have received TONS of sheet rain prior to this heat spell. Since I watered yesterday (only a gallon and a half and a half gallon on the 10th planet) and the day before I decided against watering them again. Yesterday I just made a small ring around the plants. I've read that it's really easy to overwater autos. I went through everything again and everything LOOKS good. The autos are definately in flower. I'm going to feed when I water. Yesterday Banjo had a branch that looked like it was drooping a little bit but I watered it and now they all look happy. I hope they stay that way. I know it's supposed to be super hot today but I still don't want to over water. I also didn't want to treat the banjo auto with plant doctor. I know those plants are more sensitive and with the ONE spot on a very bottom leaf, I'm hoping that it is just something stupid that I can handle. Especially if I'm careful of how I water and I clean my watering can good. Maybe I'll put some mulch down or something to keep any spores that may be there from splashing up.. I don't know yet. I'll have to think about it. I'm also planning on feeding the autos the next time I water them. I guess it's time to give them a little bit of grow big with the big bloom and the kool bloom. Looking at the recommendation I read it said to feed the autos 2tsp Big Bloom, 1 tsp Grow Big and 1/8 tsp Liquid Kool Bloom. I know these are low does but I'm excited how they respond to the food. It will be nice to have a little early harvest. Even if they aren't real heavy yielders. 7/3 When I went over between 5:30 and 6a.m. I noticed that the plants had some dew on them and it looked like they MAY have gotten some rain. IF they did it was minimal. I'm kinda in the dark doing these autos lol. Everything looks like its doing great though. The 10th planet (that had the two leaves with septoria spots) that I treated with plant doctor shows no signs of any illness and actually looks much more vigorious than before. I can't say enough good things about thid product. I wanted to treat the banjo auto as well as I took the VERY bottom leaf off due to one septoria looking spot. Seems fine now though. Bags still seemed heavy but I don't know how they could be. It's been in the upper 90's to 100 so I'm wondering how the bag could be heavy. We did get torrential downpours of sheet rain for WEEKS. I noticed a ton of growth (especially on the autos) so I decided to feed and water everything. The 10th planet got plant doctor yesterday so I just gave it a half gallon if water. I mixed up 2 different gallons of nutes. for the auto's I used 2 tsp Big Bloom, .5 tsp Grow Big, and like 1/6th tsp liquid Kool bloom. I used the gallon on the 3 autos and tried to make sure each plant got enough. The other gallon for the photos was; 3 tsp Big Bloom, 1 tsp Grow Big per gallon. I gave each plant (minus the 10p) at least 1.25 pints a plant. the clones got double that. I then mixed up another gallon of phed water and went around and tried to split it between the plants. I don't want to overwater. But when the temps raise into the triple digits it gives me some concern. Plants have grown substantially. 7/4 I was supposed to do stuff with family today but my fever came back last night and when I woke up it was over 102°. Very strange that I'll feel ok and can even eat but then night will come and my temp will skyrocket and will remain high in the morning. Anyway, we've had this ridiculous heat wave (100°) going on for several days. I mixed up 4 gallons of phed water which I gave to the whole garden. I don't like watering this often but with absolutely no rain and the scorching temps i thought it prudent. 7/5 Another super hot day with no rain. Plants are doing amazing. Autos are flowering like crazy. Mixed up 5.5 gallons of phed water and split it with the garden. I don't like watering this much but I can't really help it when it's 90° out. I gave more to the clones. Took a couple videos and some pictures. I noticed what looked like some heat stress on two leaves on the lilac diesel x zweet Auto but I removed them. I saw two of those shiny flying bugs (can't remember their name right now) on a leaf on the 10th planet but I quickly reached out and grabbed them both. killing the bugs and leaving the leaf totally intact. Win for me. Tenth planet seems to have exploded since that treatment of plant doctor. I'm going to have to setup a more regular feeding schedule. It also looks like the Sour Moose that I FIMed took. We shall see but it looks like it.

masterofsmeagol 7/6 Plants are looking great. The Autos are definately flowering but I can't really change the week so I'm keeping this as veg. I've been watering far more than I'm comfortable with but I'm going to dial it back as the temps settle down. I found another leaf with that damn septoria spot (like when a spore first lands) but it was feeding day so I didn't treat the tenth planet. It's been exploding in size too but if i need to get rid of it I will. I should've hit it with plant doctor but today was feeding day (didn't feed the 10th planet) so I figured I'd wait until tomorrow when the dose is due. I also saw a tiny (what looked like a septoria spot where the spore first lands) on A leaf on the sour moose next to that 10th planet. That is very frustrating and I guess I'm going to have to hit that too. doesn't really matter. Everytime I use plant doctor it seems like the plants cone out looking better than they did before. I'm not sure if I should just cut my loses and get rid of that 10th planet or isolate it but I think I'll give it one more treatment with plant doctor. I'll treat that Sour Moose too. The autos are flowering to beat hell. I certainly don't want to be fucking with any septoria. So if this next treatment doesnt keep it suppressed out of the cage it goes. I made two different gallons of feed for the photos and autos. Autos got 2tsp Big Bloom, .5 tsp Grow big and approx 1/4 tsp liquid Kool bloom. I split the gallon of feed with the 3 Autos. The other gallon I used 3 tsp Big Bloom, 1 Grow Big and fed each seedling a pint and the clones 2 pints. I think I'm going to have to up the feeding amount for the photos but they look awesome and don't seem to be lacking anything. I also mixed up 3 gallons of phed water but only used 2 to water what needed it. it's going to be hot again and we arent getting ANY rain. I hope I didn't ovef water but the thing with these bags and the soil i use is that even if the DID get over watered it would take like a day of sunny weather to dry those bags out. I know I have some minor concerns but with how everything is looking I could certainly be in a worse spot. Face Fat and Banjo Autos are impressing the hell out of me. Take a look for your self. Hope you guys like the videos. They took FOREVER to upload. 7/7 Still have this ridiculous fever that seems to go away during the day qnd come back at night but whatever. So glad I went out of my comfort zone and grew those Autos. Face fat will yield the most but take a look at that banjo video. That thing is stacking right up! Smells great too! It appears that the FIM I did on the Sour Moose took. The other seedlings are going to stay the same besides some LSTing. The clones are just enormous and healthy. I drove by my cousins patch and he's the one I got them from. we put them out on the same day. His being in ground couldn't take all that sheet rain we've had from earlier so the clones he has JUST started to grow. He couldn't believe what mine looked like. He even had to ask, "Are those the clones you got from me?" with a slight frown on his face. I explained the rain and mine being in bags and on pallets and him being in the ground. He was very impressed none the less. There were no signs of septoria anywhere but it was time to give the 10th planet its second dose of plant doctor. I gave it .5 gallon with approx. 1.5 tsp. maybe closer to two. I watered the autos (except the lilac diesel/Zweet as the bags were light. The other ones i went by the weight of the bag and some of them would've probably been fine. It's not super hot out like it was but we still aren'tgdtting rain. I skipped the heaviest bags. 7/8 Another awesome day. I'm watering more than I like but these plants are doing great! I watered banjo a half gallon as it WAS pretty light. The other Autos seemed fine. I gave both the clones a half gallon as they were a little light. I went around and tried to check the soil as best I could and hefted the bags. I don't want to end up overwatering and the bags seemed to have weight so I left the rest of them. It HAS been really hot. The FIM I did on the sour moose DID take and now I've got 4 additional tops AND the original one. The rest I'm keeping normal with some LSTing. This particular strain (moose and lobstah) HAS to be paid for ahead of time (At this specific high end dispo) and then WHEN they get it they will call you and you can pick up your ridiculously priced ounce. I'm very grateful to have this strain in my garden. Knock on wood but I haven't seen any sign of septoria on anything. The garden looks really great! Super healthy and I'm going to have finished product before all the shitty finishing weather starts which is a GREAT feeling! 7/9 It's gonna be in the 80's again today. I thought we were supposed to get some rain but if we do it won't be much. I've been watering a lot. I certainly don't want to overwater. I split a little over a gallon with the autos. I split a gallon with the clones. I gave half a gallon to the 10th planet. The Sour Moose plants bags seemed to be pretty heavy so I held off on watering them. The humidity is super high anyway and we might get a shower. plants look AMAZING. I'm getting compliments from both people that grow weed and from people that don't even smoke. I'm excited to see what this fall brings. I'm super excited to see how the autos turn OUT. EDIT: IT'S 730 AND I WENT AND CHECKED THE GIRLS EARLIER AS IT WAS PRETTY HOT. I THOUGHT I MIGHT HAVE TO WATER BUT AS THE VIDEO SHOWS THE PLANTS WERE DOING FINE AND DIDNT NEED ADDITIONAL WATER. THEY CAN WAIT UNTIL MORNING. 7/10 My intuition seems to be on point. It rained pretty good last night and again early this morning. Enough to make a difference. I'm definately glad I didn't watervthose sour moose yesterday. I took a couple videos. This was an INCREDIBLY late start for me and I was wondering if it would turn out OK. I'm really happy with how things are going and the health of these plants. Autos should be done about the time the photos START flowering. The smell is getting intense. Each of the Autos smells TOTALLY different. Face Fat is very pungent but has a fruition smell right now. Banjo is a little further ahead but it smells great and extremely strong with a hint of pepper. The lilac deisel x zweet auto has a completely different smell. All in all I'm super happy with how things are going. Especially since I've never grown an auto before. The photos are doing fantastic. The Sour Mooses are doing amazing. I can't believe how big they've gotten. The one I FIMed took and now has five tops. The others I'm just letting grow naturally and low stress training them. The clones are really getting to be enormous healthy plants with several tops. I can tell they'll have a significant yield. Plus blueberry Muffin I KNOW is a great high AND does well in this climate. I wasn't as excited about rude girl when I got her but I could tell by her structure she was going to be a large plants. She obviously likes the environment and apparently her THC levels can reach 35%. So I have some high hopes for her. A more apt statement would be I have high hopes for the entire garden. EDIT: IT WAS RAINING THIS MORNING BUT TURNED OUT TO BE SUNMY AND CLOSE TO 90° MOST OF THE DAY. MY SPIDEY SENSE STARTED TINGKING SO I WENT TO CHECK MY GIRLS. LUCKILY I GOT THERE IN TIME. I COUKD TELL THAT BLUEBERRY MUFFIN WAS GETTING THIRSTY. WASN'T REALKY DROOPING BUT WASN'T UP AS MUCH AS THE REST. I GAVE THAT AND RUDE GIRL (BOTH BAGS WERE SUPER LIGHT) A GALLON A PIECE. I GAVE THE 10TH PLANET HALF A GALLON AND I GAVE FACE FAT AND BANJO BOTH A HALF GALLON. THE REST OF THE BAGS SEEMED HEAVY AND PLANTS LOOKED HAPPY. I DID GIVE THE AUTO LILAC DIESEL X ZWEET A CUO OF KINDNESS AND GAVE IT A LIGHT RING AROUND THE PLANT BEVAUSE THE BAG WAS HEAVY. SUPER GLAD I WENT OVER. THE MORE I MEDITATE AND THE MORE TIMS I SPEND WITH THEM IT'S LIKE I HAVE A CONNECTION. FEELS GREAT! 7/11 Plants are looking amazing and really healthy. It's going to be close to 80 today but I watered what needed it last night. I AGAIN checked the 3 sour moose plants and their bags were still heavy so I held off on watering. I don't want to overwater and these bags had some serious heft to them. I'll certainly be keeping an eye on them throughout the day and if they need water ill give it to them. The autos are goingvto need a better feeding schedule. I want to give them a little cha ching or half a dose of liquid kool bloom. We'll see how things go. 7/12 I ended up sleeping almost all day yesterday. My body needed it to recover. Went over this morning and the two clones looked like they were JUST starting to droop. Got there at 5am and its going to be 80 today. Watered the clones 1 gallon each. The photos got a half gallon. Banjo and FF got half gallon but the smaller ld x zweet got less as its smaller and the bag was heavier. Didn't need much. The Autos flowers all have a unique smell. I've noticed the first damage. some holes in the leaves that look like grass hoppers. I've also found several caterpillar in rolled uo leaves. Luckily I go through them pretty thoroughly. Rude Girl needs to be thinned out for better air flow. We may have severe thunderstorm tomm night. If so I'm bringing my autos indoors.

masterofsmeagol 7/13 Fed the girls today. The autos got 3tsp Big Bloom and .25 tsp Liquid Kool bloom. I split the gallon between the three autos. I also watered today. It's like I'm needing to water everyday. I split another gallon watering thesaurus but fave fat amd banjo got most of it. lilac diesel x zweet seems to use significantly less water. I fed the photos with 3tsp Big Bloom, 1tsp Grow Big and I gave them each 1.25 pints with the clones getting a little more. The bags were light so I watered everything. The clones got a gallon each. Everything else got half a gallon. I killed a couple moths and noticed a few holes from grass hoppers or something and on one sour moose it was either leaf hoppers or a four lined plant bug. I also need to defoliate Rude Girl a little bit. She's getting pretty full. I know I should up my feed (especially with the photos) but I'm not seeing deficiencies yet so I'm going to continue with the k.i.s.s. method. We may have severe thunderstorms tonight. If we do then I may bring the autos inside so they don't get damaged. 7/14 Rained last night. all plants are loving the nutes. I think I can up them a bit. I still need to get inside Rude Girl and do some decoliation. I can see that Rude Girl and Bkueberry Muffin are starting the stretch. I always have difficulty picking when to change it to flower. The FIM I did on that one sour moose looks like it's coming out well. Supposably we can have temps ip to 99° today. It's overcast so I'd be surprised if that happened. Boy these rain made my autos SO MUCH MORE fragrant. Just walking to the cage its like getting smacked in the face with a fresh cola. These are legit some of the smelliesr strains I've grown. Face fats smell carries the farthest and smells amazing. Skunky, gassy with a hint of fruit. Banjo is furthest along and has trichs all over the place. It smells amazing with its peppery earthy smell. The lilac diesel x zweet has a sweet kind of smell. almost like candy mixed with weed. With the possibility of hail and severe thunderstorms tonight I'm considering taking the autos and bringing them in the barn for the night. They'd probably be fine but there is no need to take unnecessary risks. High winds are supposed to come too. Face fat is pretty tall and has long branches. I would HATE to come over in the morning and see that stem broken from strong winds. considering they are in 10 gallon bags I have room to bring all three autos OUT of the storm and into cover. I think that's probably the best action I could take. Boy those autos are doing great. I mean the photos will yield far more and probably better quality but these are flowering NOW and will likely be done before any major flowering from my photos start. I'm really glad I stepped out of my comfort zone and ran the autos. It will be nice to have some quality fannabis before all the shitty weather hits.

I hate it when I ask a question and the response I get is something to the tune of, "I would've done it differently and I'm going to argue why instead of addressing the original question." People are weird man.
