So she has been a problem child from day one. She was soaked for 24 hours like her sister and a gsc, but she took 8 days to surface. She is in promix and will be fed with advanced nutrients. Then she didn't want to shed her helmet, she was ready for war. After she shed it, then she didn't want to open up. She had that membrane or film that covers the round leaves and her first set of real serated leaves were poking through out of the sides. I sprayed her with some water and took my tweezers out and preformed a little surgery to remove it. She's doin fine now, but I scooped some dirt up to help support her stem while it strengthens up. She's under 12/12, but will be moved to 18/6 once my flowering plant is finished in a few weeks.

Week 2 went well. She is still pretty small, but she should make a great little lady yet. I've been having issues with my phone not being able to save pictures. She'll get a small dose of nutrient water every other day or when she is dried out. Until she has a good 4 to 5 sets of leaves then she'll recieve normal waterings.

Well she still is a little lady and may just stay that way, but only time will tell. I've had one other auto that has done the same thing that this one is doin. Either way it's all a great learning experience

She finally started to grow and then she began to flower. So my prediction of a small plant will likelt come to pass. That's just the way it works out sometimes. There aren't many pictures from this week as i was sick and really didn't feel like exerting more energy than needed.

She's growing nice and healthy. She recieved a good drink the other day. On day 33 she recieved a good cut and most of the bigger fans and keaves were removed as well as a fre lower nodes. She really didn't seem to be bothered by the cutting.

This week went well. She finally got some good size to her and should be done stretching as the week ends. I did a slight lst on her and opened her up a little. She recieved a good soaking today amd shouldn't need topped off till mid to late next week. She isn't so much a problem child anymore.

She is looking good and fillimg out proper. She has a nice aroma to her. I can't quite put my finger on, maybe a little pepper or spicy. She got a good drink towards the begining of the week and will got another in a couple days.

She is coming along very well. She is begining to swell a little and she has a good structure to her. She'll take a little longer than the breeder info says, but that is about normal. Longer time only means bigger buds 👍

She is filling out and looking great. She has a nice sweet or grape aroma as well as that good stank as well. I trimmed off any leaf if if was blocking a site,on day 69, unless it had trichomes on it then I trimmed it as much as possible. She was watered on day 69 as well. She has maybr another week or longer before she is ready. She'll recieve 48 hours of uninterrupted darkness before harvest.

She is going well. She is recieving mostly plain water and will continue till she is harvested. I'm going to atempt to let her go completely amber in the trichomes before I harvest her. Her smell is rather nice in contrast to to others I've ran.

So plan is now to water her one last time and then when she is mostly amber or a good 60/40 she'll be placed in a closet for 48 hours of darkness before the harvest so maybe another week or so. I want her to have the most amber trichomes I've tried to harvest at. I usually harvest once amber begins to appear, but I would like her to be more amber then the other gm I harvested to compare the outcomes.

Happy Harvest Day!

She went 91 days from sprout and has an incredible sweet smell along with that skunky smell as well. She started off looking like she was going to be a runt. Her first 3 weeks of growth were very low and didn't look very promising. She turned out to become one good looking lady. She gave me 34 grams of bud and 31 grams of trim and popcorn bud.

She was just lst'd a little he help bring her out and down. She gave me no problems once she snapped out of whatever she was going through foe the first few weeks. She has some good chunky buds and will have a good amount of trim and some popcorn buds that I left to make hash out of. A real pleasure to grow and can't wait to bring it back into the garden.
