Chopped down day 84. These struggled from pests in the begging but ended up clearing them out and grew great! The one just never excelled like the other, the little one brings me to a score of 7. But I Really want to try this strain again without any issues.
Still waiting on bud to finish curing! Once it’s ready, I will try it out and update the results!!
The gnats were around for the first few weeks and stunted the plants. I thinned them out throughout. They became non existent the last 4-5 weeks. The stunting happened when they was a seedling. The thrips weren’t there long, maybe a couple weeks but you can see their markings on the leaves(silvery spots all over). I PH’d the water everytime to 6.3-6.5 but shot for 6.4. I could have used more cal/mag throughout as I saw some def in the lead tips which is a cal def and some purpling stems which is mag def. but nothing too off. I use fluorescent lights on a light mover. It’s 16-2 foot high output bulbs and this was their first grow. These were the quickest to finish but they were also some of the smallest. So far seedsman auto kush and auto diesel look to be the biggest yields. Fast buds look good but they are all smaller than seedsman.
Smoke is smooth and tasty! The ride is exactly what I want from a hubrid. The relaxed chill feel also with the uppity feel in the dome. I highly recommend this one from @seedsman 👌0
Hey man, the buds look really nice and frosty regardless of the size of the plant, Was it definitely gnats your issue? To me looks like nute def...
Just curious
@put_around, did well considering the issues you had. I was going to say your feed info looked well light on the CalMag anyhow... You may already know this but prevent a fungus gnat issue in the future, due to your location. Cover the top inch of soil in the pot with perlite or sand. In most cases if you don't bury your stems in veg, roots don't grow around the pot In the top few inches of soil. Just a tip✌️🏻️

@Lucky777, it still smells a little green but a hint of gassy citrus coming through. In a few days, I’ll update the whole diary with how the smoke is too
@put_around, pretty straightforward. They do a great job. I used gnatnix (glass top dressing) yellow sticky traps but the nematodes took ‘em out. I got a package at the garden store and added them to just water over about a month once a week.
@TheFairyBudMother, I’ve thought about nematodes but haven’t had any experience with them. I had some diatomaceous earth but after a watering, it rinsed away. Just added more now the top is dry :)
