Week 1 - start of a new cycle and seedling has popped with no issues. Looks like she’s gonna be a strong grower👍. Not much to it - 12 hour soak of the bean in tap water and another 24 hours approx. between a damp paper towel. Sep. 23 - 125ml water and Bactrex Sep. 24 - 125ml water and Bactrex Sep. 26 - 200ml water and Bactrex Sep. 29 - 250ml water Sep. 30 - 250ml water ***boom boom spray as needed/1-3 times per day*** Background Original Sensible has been in the bizz for 25 some odd years and has its roots in the UK. Don’t know much about em but I do know I liked the photos of their Bruce Banner Auto so had to pick up some beans. This strain Looks to be a balanced hybrid consisting of some real faves - Colorado Ghost OG x Strawberry Diesel x Auto Ghost OG. She’s reported as a short flower’r - even for an auto at about 65-70 days. Let’s see what happens - Hulk smash! If you’ve seen most of my other stuff than you know I’m huge on botanicare. That said and due to some gentle prodding, we’re expanding our horizons and giving the full Biotabs nute lineup a try. The grow will be in a straight soil/perlite mix - entirely organic. It’ll be interesting to see how this nute regimen stacks up against a companion grow with BioBizz products but in either case I’m not expecting huge yields. Just the bud and smoke quality that the hardcore organic growers all rave about. Thanks for taken a look.👍😎👊

Week 2 update - she’s hot on the heels of the neighbour destroyer and doing great. No issues other than the boom boom spray. While it appears to be working and advancing growth a little faster than expected - the smell makes me wanna walk into oncoming traffic.

Week 3 update - all is generally well coming into week 3. Her growth rate is steady and we should be able to fim at some point this week. Getting a little leaf twist on the lower fans for unknown reasons but doesn’t look like an issue of concern at this point. She’ll get spiked with some Bactrex this week too and we’ll likely cut out the foliar feeds now that she’s got her legs under ‘er. Thanks for swing’n in as always👍😎👊.

Week 4 update - see last weeks photos; the fim really paid off with this one. After the snip she sorta crunched into herself for a day or so and then burst out growing like mad again👍, she’s fixn to be a real step performing plant as we come into late veg. Cut out the boom boom spray, spiked the last feed with some Bactrex and should be starting with some LST this week. Alls well yall👍😎👊.

Week 5 update - She’s growing real well and we just continue to spread er out to widen the canopy and encourage more growth tips. You can see the tip count change week to week now which is kinda cool. This approach to Fim’n autos is paying huge dividends the last couple grows👍. Think I’ve given up on any kind of defo during veg. Unless it’s serving a very specific purpose. I’ve left this one alone and it seems to have paid off. She’s just about to move in to bloom so stay tuned for the flower show. Thanks as always for swing’n in😎👊.

Week 5 update - she’s runn’n into heavy veg. Now and looks like transition is starting but bloom is not quite there just yet. I’m starting to really appreciate the ease of watering with plain tap water too. While soil is messier than coco the time saved mixing nutes is a big bonus. Tried to get a good pic of what the fim did and you can see in the photos that we’ve got at least 3 main branches extended out from the node where we made the cut👍. So cool! This method is my go-to for training autos and this one looks like it’ll be just as, if not more successful than the last auto run👍. As always, the looks and support is appreciated y’all. Flower show should be starting this week😎👊. Background Original Sensible has been in the bizz for 25 some odd years and has its roots in the UK.

Week 7 update - coming into week 7... of veg... yeah, it’s pretty obvious now that this girl is a photo so I guess OS sent me the non-auto version of ‘er. We’ve got a bit of a problem to solve now and I’m not quite sure how I’m gonna do it as her two neighbour autos are currently in flower. So much for the comparative auto organic side-by-side too👎. It’s all good and we’ll roll with it somehow to stay on pace for the next cycle. Just another one of those annoying, unexpected grow problems that pops up I guess🤪. As a plus - good ol Bruce is a vegetating beast that is has potential now to yield pretty huge I think. Don’t expect to be waiting on this and will likely try to move er into flower next week. Just might have to jam er in with the white widow (something I absolutely did not intend on doing). Cheers y’all👊 Nov. 10 update - looks like the plan to flip to flower may wait a few more days. During defo we found a couple of aphids on er🤬. Not many but where there’s a couple, there’s always a potential future problem. Zapped er with some diluted neem oil and dish soap and will probably treat 2-3 more times prior to the flip. She’s got some breathing room now though as we’ve moved out both autos to the small cab and the widow into this one. Alls good unless these little bastards start multiplying.👍 Background Original Sensible has been in the bizz for 25 some odd years and has its roots in the UK.

Week 8 update - noted exactly 2 aphids during defo last week which was enough to warrant a couple neem oil treatments prior to flip. Aside from that, alls good and flip took place nov. 13. Gotta say that I’m so far impressed with the ease of care and growth rate. She’s healthy and took well to the fim. Gonna be interesting to see how she fares with the extra room in the cabinet.

Week 9 update - well this is certainly frustrating as all hell. The aphid issue has been knocked down on this plant but it’s in full swing with new nymphs on the neighbouring white widow.🤬. This is annoying but we’re considering big it fortunate that we only just started transition and are still able to give each plant a full spray. They’ll both be given a defo and pull back this week which should also assist to knock down the issue. Probably gonna have to hit em for 2 weeks to ensure we properly knock down the infestation. It’s always something isn’t it folks👎. Thanks for checkn er out👊. Background Original Sensible has been in the bizz for 25 some odd years and has its roots in the UK.

Week 10 update - into the 2nd week of transition now and all I can really say is that this plant is a champ. Our little aphid issue is now a full on infestation with the neighbouring white widow yet this plant seems to be resisting them for the most part. It’s actually really weird - we spotted the aphids on this plant first and then they exploded on the widow but kinda seem to have left this one alone. Either way, we hit both cabinets with a lady bug bomb to try and get the issue under control. This plant is going to make out just fine I think (here’s hoping for the widow though🤞). She’s turning over into bloom quite nicely and I continue to be amazed at the ease of using the biotabs lineup👍. All is generally well, the troops are munchn on aphids like ferocious piranha on a cow carcass👍. Thanks for stopp’n in as always - flower shows coming into full force now😎.

Week 11 update - into the third week of stretch now and still lookn good. The ladybugs have definitely kept the aphid issue under control on this girl. Had to pitch the neighbouring plant which was just too far gone but that will help the situation even more. Wiped down the whole cabinet plus the drainage trays with a bleach solution just so that we’ve done everything possible to wipe em out. Also ruthlessly defo’d er to thin the numbers as much as possible. We should be good for ripening if everything stays on track. Thanks as always for take’n peek😎👊.

Week 12 update - it’s hard to stay positive after losing a plant to something like this but we’re still happy to report that the aphid issue is “under control” at the moment🤞. The defos and cleaning have done a lot and the ladybugs have done the rest. We’re still dealing with stragglers so it’ll probably be an ongoing battle and one we might not even win🤷‍♂️. She’s developing really well however and she’s showing some true resistance which is good.

Week 13 update - on the fifth week of flower and aphid problem remains under control. They’re still present but really don’t seem to like this plant and they don’t appear to be growing in numbers. She’s still worth seeing through at this point and flowering nicely👌. No significant smell yet. I’ve witnessed some yellowing of the fan leaf tips the whole grow but have no idea what it could be as the rest of the plant is healthy and vibrant. Biotabs seems to be doing its job quite well👍.

Week 14 update - 6th week of flower and happy to report that there are. O further signs of the aphids which is pretty cool. Figured we’d have to battle em for the rest of the grow but they appear to be gone👍. Starting to see some rust coloured spotting on the leaves so think that may explain the tip burning too - possible calmag def. I know how this turns out if you don’t supplement so spiked the feed water with some calmag just to be safe. Important late weeks of flower are coming up and all is generally well👍.

Week 15 update - 7th week of flower and she’s frosting up nicely. Gotta figure another 2-3 weeks at this point and don’t expect a heavy yield. The calmag seems to be deterring The leaf issue but only time will tell. If it ain’t calmag then it could be light burn so moved up the lamp a couple inches just to be safe. Looking forward to the finish and it’s approaching fast👌👍. Background Original Sensible has been in the bizz for 25 some odd years and has its roots in the UK. Don’t know much about em but I do know I liked the photos of their Bruce Banner Auto so had to pick up some beans. This strain Looks to be a balanced hybrid consisting of some real faves - Colorado Ghost OG x Strawberry Diesel x Auto Ghost OG. She’s reported as a short flower’r - even for an auto at about 65-70 days. Let’s see what happens - Hulk smash! If you’ve seen most of my other stuff than you know I’m huge on botanicare. That said and due to some gentle prodding, we’re expanding our horizons and giving the full Biotabs nute lineup a try. The grow will be in a straight soil/perlite mix - entirely organic. It’ll be interesting to see how this nute regimen stacks up against a companion grow with BioBizz products but in either case I’m not expecting huge yields. Just the bud and smoke quality that the hardcore organic growers all rave about. Thanks for taken a look.👍😎👊

Week 16 update - 8th week of flower and all I can say is - meh... trichs are colouring out well and expect we aren’t too far away. Kinda sad really as the buds haven’t thickened out as hoped. We should be looking at a pretty skinny crop. Just can’t help but feel we left something on the table here with this grow and I can only wonder what my traditional nute regimen might’ve seen ‘er do. Despite this one nagging issue (really just my ego demanding Better weight results) - she’s growing well and the calmag shots appear to be stemming any further leaf issues. Think as soon as we start seeing some colours pop on the buds we’ll look to the flush. Not long now folks - thanks for hang’n in with it👊.

Week 17 - week 9 of flower and she looks almost less developed than last week. Trichs are ambering a little on the tops as expected but the middle and lower portions are glassy and reflective - not near ready yet. Cut out the calmag too. At this point I’m just banking on ‘er starting a rapid fade this week and next🤞. I got a full hydro run ready to go for this space and I’m getting impatient. Alls can do is pray she thickens out before the trichs mature. Still go’n strong folks. Thanks for swing’n in👊😎.

Week 18 update - 10th week of flower and what a difference a few days makes. Trichs have turned over nicely while sadly, she’s not putt’n on the bulk we were hoping for. Well run er out the rest of this week and look to chop early next. She’s ready to go and now we’re pick’n a day folks👍😎.

Week 19 update - starting into 11th week of flower now. Trichs right in the sweet spot but she really hasn’t turned over as hoped. The pics are also deceiving as she’s very skinny and underdeveloped in terms of both frost and bud structure. We could chop any time now but will likely flush the medium one more time instead and wait until next weekend. She’s been a bit of a weird one for sure. Harvest report to follow on next update👍.

Medium: 🥥🥥 I just can’t get behind indoor soil grows anymore. A little less hassle in terms of nutes yes, but the growth rate is much slower and there’s always that increased chance of pests come’n in with the product... and wouldn’t ya know it - aphids absolutely infested both the grow spaces and tore up a white widow so bad we had to pitch ‘er. This plant however, was like a battle hardened warrior fighting em off. After a couple neem treatments, some major defoliation, 3 lady bug bombs and the kitchen sink being thrown at er - we got rid of every last one of those little bastards. She came off wayyyy better than the other 3 plants and it was impressive to say the least. 2 coconut emojis for the tainted medium and yes - I definitely took off an extra coconut due to bitterness with the aphid issue. Yield/Harvest🌴🌴🌴 And now the final numbers. She trimmed out easily and she’s definitely got some serious goo to ‘er - excellent dankness factor despite a very fluffy bud structure. As expected and after 7 days on the rack (1 more day than needed due to laziness) she dried up quite a bit. After stripping the stems we did have a lot of popcorn bud. Fully usable but still popcorn. The head buds are of acceptable quality but not massive by any stretch. What she lacks in bag appeal she makes up for with effect👍. Considering this ended up being a photo grow vs. What was supposed to be an auto grow - there is simply no excuse for anything less than 2oz. Thankfully, she didn’t disappoint in that respect coming in at 2.7oz off the stem. Much better than originally anticipated so no complaints there. 3/5 palm trees for being “acceptable” overall. Props Many thanks to everyone who stopped in to chat on it and check the progress. Definitely credit where due to OSSC for the genetics. The 2 girls on this run performed well despite some serious issues so I’m looking forward to seeing their true potential in the future. Until the next run, wish everyone the best of buds👍👊👍
