Hello fellow growers, This grow was done earlier but I have it all documented and I would like to share with You here as well as it was one my best grow with lot of mistakes to learn from it but still with great result I think. The medium is soil mixed with 30% perlitte and I used autopot system. I hope you will enjoy the show :) The seedling started in grodan, which was slightly watered. I ordered a wrong grodan with big hole so i filled up woth coco. First mistake, but it worked anyway. Then it was transplanted to her final pot very soon. As im using ph perfect nutrients i did not care about my ph.

The second mistake came on day 15. First rule: do not go to the garden when you are high. She was on a shelf to raise her closer to the light and I just knocked her and she falled to the ground. Half of the medium on the floor. I filled up everything and prayed. Finally. She did not cared about anything just grew. After i saw she got over it, I started to train her. I started with ponytailing which is a great early stage LST to let your side branches more light. I only use this technic for 4 hours daily when the light is on. Responded very well. The Autopot was planned to start on day 15 but I wait after she falled down from 1 meter high lol. Hard BNDG started at day 20. And also there is a sign of mg def on the big older bottom leaves.

Okay so we are over some issues and itt looks everything is fine finally, the mg def is finished after I added some calmag. The Autopot also was turned on at the beginning of this week and i continue to tie her down. And it is time to realize maybe I feed a monster in my garden. The box is 90x90 cm so you can imagine her size.

Now I think the LST just worked and she responded like a crazy. Amazing to watch how she got bigger day by day. The scratching is slowing down now, she start to concentrate to flowering. Lets see those buds building up.

Look at those stem. I forgot about my support wires and when I checked her stem i realized actually she grew through :D Crazy girl. The vertical grow stopped at about day40 and she started to develop buds. Finally she was taken out from the box to show her natural color. There is a 5l plastic bottle next to her. And that was the point where i should realize my calmag has way too much N for flowering, but I did not. Anyway to be continued. Stay safe

I have seen some calmag def so I raised the amount which was my biggest mistake in this grow. The N toxicity is clearly visible on the pictures. There couple of signs: end of leaves clawing (curling down). Dark green leaves. Some nute burn. Clear signs. And the N toxicity also can cause lockout thats why i could see mg defeciencies. Anyway they still looks good and will be a great hervest for sure. Look again that upskirt photo, that stem is crazy. Very satisfied with this Autopot system.

I will try to find more pictures, i know I took a lot. She started to build up the buds but the too much N slowed her down or maybe almost stun them. In this time i cut the amount of N for almost zero and the diet helped a lot. The buds started to show some purple also this week.

Sadly i do not have pictures right before hervest in good quality, but i had an other phenotype before which was hiding in the corner of my smaller box, I never took her out for pictures only before the hervest in the middle of the flush and hell she just looked amazin. Look at that sugarcoat everywhere and those colorful buds. She was grew without any issues or any defeciencies, she just was smaller because did not get enough light during the veg. But the endresult was just amazing. I will come back the result of pheno #1

I had a lot of thing I would do other way now. I will give this girl a chance again soon to impress me. That grow was just amazing. From the picture I missing 41g dried buds which was from popcorns. It should be added. The first autopot xp was again amazing I love this thing.
