The Breeder’s Dream 100% Untrained

Protocol_JHP 🌿 Week 1 Vegetation: Recovery & Stabilization Feeding: Plain tap water (Minimal base watering) GG4 Auto: Fully recovered from the early sprout collapse. The main stem has calloused and hardened; structural props remain in place for support while initial true leaf sets expand. OG Kush Auto: Exhibiting a squat, compact, Indica-dominant expression. Spreading flat, serrated 3-finger leaves horizontally with tight node spacing. 💧 Nutrition & Environment No nutrients added. Plants are running strictly on the organic baseline charge present in BioBizz Light-Mix. Minimal, targeted watering around stem bases to encourage lateral root expansion.

Protocol_JHP 🌿 Week 2 Vegetation: The Soil Top-Up Intervention Feeding: Full drench (~4L plain tap water per pot) Growth accelerated exponentially as root engines reached the lower layers of the fabric pots. GG4 Auto: Main stem fully hardened; props safely removed. Lateral node branches emerging. OG Kush Auto: Continuing dense horizontal expansion. Main trunk visibly swelling at the base. 🛠️ Substrate Intervention (July 9th–10th) Both 7-gallon fabric pots were topped up with fresh BioBizz Light-Mix, completely burying the elongated lower stems and effectively expanding the root zone. Both pots received a thorough 4L drench from the hose to settle the new soil and charge the root zone. Lighting intensity increased from 50% to 75% on the Mars Hydro TS1000.

Protocol_JHP 🌿 Week 3 Vegetation: The Vegetative Explosion! Feeding: 3L per pot (Tap water + 1ml/L BioBizz Grow) Following the soil top-up and lighting bump, the room experienced an absolute explosion in vegetative volume! The phenotypic structural contrast between these two Barney's Farm genetics is now fully on display: 🦍 GG4 Auto (The Vertical Candelabra) Structure: Naturally scaling into a textbook, symmetrical vertical candelabra tower. Lateral branches climbing fast and uniformly. Dimensions: 38 cm (H) x 47 cm (W) Base Stem: Calloused, sturdy, and fully stabilized at 5.0 cm circumference. 🌿 OG Kush Auto (The Horizontal Factory) Structure: Developing a wide, high-density horizontal canopy matrix. The main trunk is building an absurdly thick, round, woody frame. Dimensions: 29 cm (H) x 58 cm (W) Base Trunk: Sitting at a massive 7.5 cm circumference at the base! (Barney's Seeds—you should be proud of this genetic stock!) 💧 Nutrition & Maintenance Introduced liquid nutrition this week. Both plants received a 3-Liter feed containing an organic baseline dose of 1ml/L BioBizz Grow in tap water. The filled 7-gallon pots absorbed the full 3L volume flawlessly with minimal runoff.

Protocol_JHP 🌸 Week 4 Pre-Flower: Natural Growth Mastery & Pre-Flower Stretch Feeding: Organic baseline feeds continuing (3L per pot) Week 4 marks the official explosion into the pre-flower stretch! Both plants remain 100% natural and untrained—no topping, no LST, and no pruning. This week provided major insights into how premium autoflower genetics structure themselves when left entirely to nature. 🦍 GG4 Auto (The Natural Candelabra) Structural Expression: Continuing her flawless vertical progression. Without a single tie-down or snip, she is building a textbook, uniform "candelabra" framework. Canopy Behavior: Side branches are reaching up to match the central spire effortlessly, filling vertical space with clean, open symmetry. 🌿 OG Kush Auto (The Heavyweight) The Monster Trunk: The main stem at the soil line has expanded to an incredible 8.0 cm circumference, serving as a massive vascular highway that supplies energy evenly across the entire plant. 15 Natural Colas: The plant is currently pushing 15 active, robust shoot sites including the main top. Lateral branches are matching the main stem's thickness, breaking apical dominance completely naturally. Current Dimensions: 36 cm Height x 64 cm Width. 🧠 Key Learnings & Takeaways From Week 4 Phototropism Beats Manual Tucking. Result: Given room and light, the plant naturally elevated its 15 shoot tips right through the foliage canopy via phototropism, forming a flat, self-leveling tabletop under the LED panel. Trunk Caliper Drives Uniformity Insight: A heavy 8.0 cm base trunk eliminates the plant's need to favor a single dominant main top. Result: Hydraulic pressure from the root zone is distributed equally, giving all 14 side branches the energy profile of a primary central cola. Untrained Genetic Potential GG4 proves that top-tier genetics can achieve perfect vertical canopy balance completely hands-off. OG Kush proves that heavy horizontal bushy genetics will naturally level out their own bud sites without needing topping or LST stress to force a flat canopy. BIG UPS TO BARNEY'S FARM GENETICS
