Throughout this grow I harvested 4 Blackberry autos by Fastbuds.
They all averaged 12 weeks from seed to harvest running 18/6.
Easy grow.
The smell is fantastic. Super strong fragrant berries! Doesn't even smell like cannabis.
The taste is strong, floral and unmistakably berry.
It hits me instantly with an intense wave of body anxiety that shortly morphs into pure indica couch lock.
The buds don't get too dense and have a pyramid/grenade structure.
Blackberry doesn't have hardly any foliage whatsoever, so trimming is a matter of pulling off a few leaves.
The MOST purple strain I have ever seen! Dark almost black with orange and white pistils. Super gorgeous.
Some people I have shown didn't think it was real until they tried it!
Super resinous.
Not my favorite strain but the best purple I have personally seen hands down!
The last Blackberry was a runt. It was also the only Blackberry I had left to breed.
I had some major environment issues moving from a closet to a DIY panda film "tent" room that may have contributed to the unusually small growth in the last plant.
The last plant ended up being 22 grams wet weights after extracting all the seeds.
The whole point was to breed a Blackberry with a C4 Matic and it was successful.
I ended up with 350 viable Blackberry x C4 Matic seeds! 😎 starting 6 for next grow!
My Auto plants at week 6 have formed pistils.
I don't feel like they are quite mature enough to pollinate yet.
I am basically at the halfway point of this grow. I don't want to miss the window to have fully mature seeds.
Any pollination methods/advice?
It usually takes 4 to 6 weeks for auto seeds to mature so you have some time. I would give them a week or 2 to grow more pistils before pollinating. Don't stress about the seeds maturing because you can run seed making plants a few weeks past when you would normally harvest. I have pollinated autos 4 weeks into flower and got good seeds. I did a diary on making autoflower seeds you can check out also. Good luck!
i installed a 6" exhaust fan and carbon filter.
its trying to suck the entire tent up.
i have one 4" vent hole. it isn't enough.
what should i do? on a budget.
I'm sorry to say this but on a budget I think you may have to cut some holes... Still shouldn't let the smell out as long as you don't cut too many and the exhaust fan is always running....A better tent could also take care of your needs depending on budget. I hope this helps....I would say smaller fan but I think even that would fail with a 4 inch vent... happy growing ✌️👊
Some lovely buds on those ladies. Fat and frosty buds with dome lovely color. Fantastic work. Keep doing what your doing and may the ganja growing gods protect your ladies till the end growmie.
