Lemon AK automatic (420Fastbuds)

On day 1 of week 13 I watered using 400ml molasses Em-1, the later watered again using 300ml of water spayed. Now I reckon that it is that day and the day 1 on week 12 which actually dealt the most damage to the grow, really need to get better with my irrigation skills, I’m allot better at judging the soil when I’m not recovering from smoking to much bud “I’m on top of that now” We all have those moments where we smash a few oz in less than a month. I learnt my lesson and I didn’t bitch or cry about it, I just got on with it and understood where I had messed up. Life has many lessons to teach us, I lost 2/3 or my Lemon AK harvest from being slack and not taking into consideration certain things such as crazy humidity climbs during the night towards 85%, which is optimal conditions for growing fungi, which is not the plan :P. The bud I did end up with though was incredible quality wise, never seen bud like it before. And I honestly hate blowing my own trumpet, I’m only telling the truth. On day 4 of week 13, I had to do the Emergency harvest. “I was angry and confused and upset”-first reaction. At least the stigmas were at 75% amber to brown, so close to harvest. I went on to then purchase a UV-C light and scan the rest of the buds which weren’t contaminated with the UV-C light, this caused me to save the rest of my crop. I also dried them for 7 days in a dark closet with minimal light and not much air flow, but the humidity was stable at around 50% and temp was at 19 degrees c. I then cured the buds for a week in mason jar (extremely sterile) When I finally got to see the end expression of the beautifully developed top crown bud I couldn’t believe that it was I who had grown it. Best looking Strain I have seen in a long time. Very very pleased with the genetics by 420FastBuds. You know as soon as I noticed the bud rot/mold problem I heard a voice in my head “Sativa’s aren’t as pathogen resistant as Indica’s. Essentially Indicas are less prone to fungal attack’s or bacterial attacks. “Indica has more of it’s natural cannabis vibe intact, where as sativa which has been cultivated over and over and over for a long long time has obvs become weaker along the way in some ways but stronger in other ways” My tip from experience, (destroy all fungus gnats)(don’t let humidity climb above 70%)(Don’t over water)(Air flow) Looking forward to running some Lemon AK in another year, unless I can get another grow tent setup soon.
