Blackberry Auto Grow - Round 1

MO_Gardens This is our first grow, starting with a variety of plants but very much look forward to the Blackberry strain. This is going to be updated often, so check back for updates!

MO_Gardens Here's some recent pictures. I've been struggling with getting my environment right. I may have slightly over feed the plant and I think it slowed it down a little, but they are bouncing back nicely. Been using R/O water from my High Pirahana filter.

MO_Gardens Still trucking along. I had my light turned up a bit high for the first week, I turned them down a few days ago and all the plants seemed to enjoy it. Nothing else to report really.

MO_Gardens Started some LST and removed a few leafs to get some light to the under branches. Trying to get those to grow up some for more tops in the end hopefully. Feed most of the plants some Liquid Seaweed this week with Molasses, plants seem to be enjoying it. Other then that, nothing to report really.

MO_Gardens Like my other auto I'm growing, I've learned these are much different from photo plants. They don't like heavy feedings or lots of light. My other photo plants enjoy both. I've feed some liquid seaweed and molasses over the past week, and have continued the LST. So far so good.

MO_Gardens I've been busy and missed updating several of my journals. This has started to show amazing colors so wanted to share. It started REALLY showing flower late in week 5, and early in week 6 hints of purple showed up. The plant is 52 days from seed at the time of writing this. I have had an issue with just this strain with random funky leaf growth and discoloration. I have another FB Pineapple that doesn't show the same, as well as 11 other strains. Started another Blackberry seedling and it's showing the same discoloration so I'm thinking it's a genetic/strain issue. Hopefully it doesn't affect the final outcome, so far it's looking good!

MO_Gardens I chopped it down today, which is day 74 from sprout. The trichomes were looking partly amber/purple and all cloudy. The smell is pretty overwhelming of berries and cream. It's a unique smell and I can't say I've smelled another cannabis plant similar to this. This was technically my first full completion in my all new setup, so I expected it wouldn't be perfect. The pictures speak for the genetics itself, but there were some funky things this plants did, and I have a 2nd blackberry plant from the same batch of seeds that's doing the same oddities, so not sure I'm 100% sold on autoflowers. At the end of the day, I'm happy with my choice and happy I didn't kill the plant! LOL I don't think it's going to be more than an ounce or 2, but I'll report back when it's dried and weighed. 😀
