thcninja This is one happy plant! She is getting big and bushy. I hope that I don't run out of space. It's already down to 2 feet free between the top of the plant and the light. Update: Installed netting to tame the vertical growth.

thcninja The buds are absolutely enormous! And she still has another 1-2 weeks to go. It's hard to believe these buds could get even bigger but they will. This week was a dramatic shift in nutrients into a finishing blend that includes Dry KoolBloom.

thcninja The leaves on the buds have started to die off and all the trichomes are milky. I'd prefer to see some amber trichomes before finishing the plant but, with the plant beginning to die, there is too much risk of bud rot at this point. I switched the reservoir to a flushing solution of PH'd water with FloraKleen. Will flush for a week and then harvest. Hopefully by then there will be some amber trichomes.

Happy Harvest Day!

Choco Kush Autoflower Amsterdam Genetics

8/10

Rated

The yield was way higher than the seed company predicted. It could have been even more had I used a larger tent. My only complaint is that it grew way taller than it was supposed to. But overall it was an easy grow with high disease resistance (not a single spot of mold), a respectable yield, and good potency too. Tipping the scales at 1 pound dry, this was pretty much the limit to what can be produced in a 3x3 tent.

@Blueboy2019, These are monster buds! Wide as my arm. Getting so heavy that, even with thick silica-reinforced stems plus netting, they are drooping under their own weight. If bud rot doesn't manage to creep in, this will be a bountiful harvest.

I dug the seed out and inspected it. It hasn't even begun to germinate after 10 days. Bad seed? So I just planted a new seed in the rockwool.

@HuckingFot, That's a great idea. I'm going to try that if this new seed doesn't sprout in the rockwool.

@thcninja, you can also try germinating with damp paper towels

The early growth suffered some nutrient burn because the roots grew faster than expected and reached the nutrients solution a few days too soon. Lesson learned: Keep plain PH'd water in the reservoir until the seedling reaches the proper maturity level to handle nutrients. Anyways, the newest leaves look fine and are growing fast. She quickly adapted to the stronger nutrients inputs and seems to have stabilized. Also, TDS are too high for this early stage because my tap water alone is 400 PPM and then throw in the nutrient solutions, even at low doses, and it climbs to 700 PPM. Maybe I'll ask for a RO filter for my birthday. It would be great to start from 0 PPM water and then add nutrients from there.

@thcninja,how often do you change the water in the dwc reservoir? And do you prepare your mix first then add?

This plant is getting too tall! So I installed netting to take back control of the unruly beast.

thcninjacommentedweek 35y ago

She already doubled in size in just three days, going from 6" tall to 12". And it's not stretch. It's bushy, dense leafy growth. This strain is supposed to max out at 24" in height. At this rate of growth, I would guess that she is going to easily exceed that. I'm hoping the height won't be too much though because there is only about 4' of actual usable grow space in the tent before it gets too close to the light.

Finally, the new seed sprouted out from the rockwool today! So the first seed was a dud, and this second seed took 5 days to germinate.

thcninjacommentedweek 15y ago

It's been seven days and still no sign of germination. Keeping my fingers crossed that the seed is good. I have more but would rather not waste them, so I'm only germinating one at a time. Come on little seed, sprout!

It's my first time growing Choco Kush Auto by Amsterdam Genetics. This strain is supposed to be very short in height and low-yielding. Short is good because I grow indoors, but low-yielding?! Boo hoo! So my goal with this grow is to push the strain to its limits! With DWC (Deep Water Culture) hydroponics under intense LED lighting, using the full line of General Hydroponics nutrients and advanced supplements, plus beneficial microbes. Let's give this strain a chance to show us what she can do when treated like a princess!
