Taz opens Pandora’s box

Tazard Pandora is a sweet and spicy indica dominant strain with a high medical value. It is one of the most powerful autoflowering varieties in the world. The strain took the 2nd prize Highlife Cannabis Cup 2012 (catetory autoflowering). The Pandora contains 80% indica, that provides a strong stone-body high, 10% sativa and 10% ruderalis that gives fast flowering and short size. The plant develops compact, healthy structure with dense, long, sticky buds and a thick central cola. It grows well both indoors and outdoors and reaches to 1m tall. So it is ideal for small spaces. The strain has a high calyx-to-leaf ratio and fast flowering from nine to ten weeks from germination. The taste is both sweet and spicy, and the effect is relaxing. The smoke brings a long-lasting, smooth buzz. Expected yield is 100g/Plant. 12/28 she has germinated! Since these are Autos I probably should consider this as day 1.

Tazard Welcome to the beginning of week two. She is looking good. Her roots are almost to the water level and when that happens the magic will begin!

Tazard Welcome to week 3! She is pushing out her third and 4th nodes. I can just tell she will be a lovely lady. I have begun using ro water due to the nasty things they put in my local water.

Tazard I think I have a magnesium deficiency?

Tazard She is still very short but developing lots of Branching. Removed some leaves to open her up a bit

Tazard She is looking a lot better. I think I have a handle on my early veg now. My CC and CA are doing well and this and the other autos appear to have recovered. I have been foliar feeding her Calmag and will probably incorporate it into her feed.

Tazard She is the most vigorous of the autos I have growing. I have super cropped her several times trying to get her lower branches up and keep her top down to get the most even canopy I can as she flowers. The Calmag I sprayed seems like the ticket so I have included it in my reservoir. Thanks again for the follow.

Tazard Beginning of week 8 and no flowers yet. She is branching out like a monster I think I will probably have to give her a good trim. She is making her bud beds and should be popping out her flowers soon.

Tazard I have been busy. I trimmed the Pandora. It was not an easy task. She has so many branches and most were within 5-7cm of the tallest. Small diameter branches I only left the top node. Larger diameter and horizontal branches I left everything within about 4” of the top. Happy grows!

Tazard She looks awesome. She is making beds for her future flowers. She is showing pistols at the budsites. I’m just maintaining the pH and nutrients in her tank everything else is up to her. I’ve put her on a 12/12 schedule to try to get her to flower.

Tazard She looks awesome 👏. However, she is late and I had to go to 12/12 for her to flower. She should be finishing now but I would guess she has at least 3 more weeks (probably more). I switched my nutrient line to Advanced Nutrients the middle of last week.

Tazard The switch to 12/12 was the cure! Maybe I killed the Ruderalis 😂. Either way she is a fantastic looking lady.

Tazard She is filling out very well. Since the flip to 12/12 the buds are growing and they are “already” covering the stems. She looks to have the potential for a great yield.

Tazard Wow she is absolutely beautiful her buds are swelling. She has a nearly perfect structure with an amazing canopy.

Tazard Welcome back. It’s week 15 here and we have about 15% darkened hairs. Buds are swelling daily she is loaded with nice sized buds.

Tazard Flushing this week. Looking forward to her.

Tazard Not quite ready but this is the last update before harvest. I suspect that I will probably get at least the 100g/plant as advertised.

Tazard I grew her on a 24/0 light schedule. By week 9 she had not begun to flower so I switched to 12/12 and she responded by flowering!!! Although she obviously went way beyond her cited 9 weeks.
