Hello Growers & Tokers! Growing was nice, first two runs went better but that has to do with the growing conditions. The buds are still drying but I've already sampled this strain from the previous times I've grown it. Both times they had similar smells and tastes but the second run had much more mint, earthy and even chocolate taste to it so I'll wait for the dry and cure to sample the best bud then update that section of the harvest. I'll also update the final dry weight, dry bud pictures, hash outcome and pictures. Stay tuned! Take care out there! One Love!

Hello Growers & Tokers! It's my third time growing this strain and it won't be the last. To be honest first two runs came out better but they also had better growing conditions so I can't complain. She's the tallest out of the three I've grown. Growing was pretty easy, she handles the training well. I ran into some problems when the weather started to change there was about a month of rain, sun, cloudy, windy changes daily and that was harsh on her. Ended up with a burnt cola top. She was also on a balcony that only receives 4-6 hour of direct sunlight. This was just an experiment to see what I can and can't grow in the balcony. I'd say it was a good experiment. Served me well.. I also ran into some spider mite problems which took me a couple of weeks to get rid of. Given the conditions the buds came out airy so I'll be using them to make some bubble hash. I also went ahead and did a little Halloweed photo session. Can anyone guess the theme? πŸ•·οΈ Hope you enjoy those pictures. πŸ˜‚ They're still drying... so when they're dry I'll set a side the best bud to dry, cure and sample. With the rest I'll make some bubble hash. I'll post an update on the harvest week with the final dry weight, some pictures of the dry buds and the hash outcome. Stay tuned. Take care out there! One Love!

This diary is my first reference for my grow as your week 1 growth is very strong - I’m interested whether week 1 is a predictor of yield at the end. I hope you see her to the finish, good luck growmie πŸ˜¬πŸŽ‰πŸŽ‰πŸŽ‰

@Tripledrop, Thanks! πŸ™ First week I had her under a 600w HPS, then I took her outside where she only receives about 5 hours of direct sun light. Love this strain, she's a beast! Happy Growing!πŸ˜ƒπŸŒ±πŸŒΏπŸŒ²

I did the same overwatering mistake - these girls don’t like to drink πŸ€ͺ. It looks like your lady is just going into flower. These girls can take ages to finish - don’t cut early, unless you have a plant issue of course. Good luck growmie, looking great so far!! Stay safe 🌈

@Tripledrop, She was drinking up the hot days but when the heat went down, she said it was too much. πŸ˜‚ She sure is starting to flower, pistils started popping up at the end of the week. That's why I left this week in veg. That's true man! Last one I had her inside the tent with 7 other photo periods. She took longer than all the other in the tent a total of about 15 weeks or so but it was worth it! The taste in this strain is delicious! πŸ˜‹

Hi. What is her height now compared to week 10 when she was 100cm?
Tripledrop

@Mr_Motalovah, thanks for the info! Yeah stretch normally is 2 to 3 weeks - fingers crossed you get some fat long bugs off this big girl!

Mr_Motalovah
@Tripledrop, Hey! In week 10 she was 80cm, week 11 90cm, week 12 100cm and I just measured her today end of week 13 and she’s at 104cm.. so I’m guessing her flower stretch is over and she’ll start filling in buds. 😁😁 She definitely grew waaaay over my expectations. Compared to the other two seeds from the pack she’s way bigger. Looks like a normal fem.. πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈπŸ»

She is a big girl for a GSC auto! These are meant to be 40% sativa but yours looks more sativa going by the thin leaf shape - sativas stretch a lot, you might need to plan ahead and work out what to do if she stretches like I suspect she will! Super cropping I guess is your best bet. Good luck!

Mr_Motalovah
@Tripledrop, Hey!! I just saw this comment, sorry for the late reply. πŸ˜… Yeah, she is huge for a GSC auto πŸ˜‚ Certainly took the Sativa side. The Fast buds strain specifics say she can grow up to 100cm.. the other two seeds from the pack weren’t nearly as big as this one. At most 70cm I think.. you were right about the stretch πŸ˜† she did lots of that! I just let her do her thing because I had already topped her.

She’s looking great! Are you going to put her in a bigger pot soon, before flowering? I think you should but depends on how much space you have in the area you will flower her in.

@Tripledrop, Hey! Thanks for the adivice! πŸ˜ƒ This was just a little experiment I have going.. I only get 5 hours of direct sunlight on the balcony so I didn't think she was going to grow so much. First time I grew this strain was also outdoors and got about 10 hours of direct sunlight, she didn't grow this much because it was in a 8L pot.. I thought about it but if I put her in a bigger pot she'll grow way too much for my little balcony πŸ˜‚... This one is 11L and she is about 60cm, no signs of flowering yet.. so when flowering she'll reach about 110cm tall... I think that's an alright size.πŸ˜„ Happy Growing! πŸ˜ƒπŸ‘

Hola, se ve genial tu planta! Felicitaciones. Estoy cultivando la misma genΓ©tica pero me sorprende cΓ³mo has llegado a la semana 18 siendo que estas son de entre 9/10 semanas? Me intriga! Gracias!
Mr_Motalovah
Mr_Motalovah
@HurlinghCultiveta, Hey, Thanks! Glad you like them. πŸ˜ƒ They are 9/10 weeks of flower plus the additional weeks of vegetation. To be honest, I have no idea how this one took longer to start flowering. This is my third time growing this strain, first two runs they started flowering at week 5 if i'm not mistaken, this one took an extra 4 weeks. I planted with the objective to harvest first of september. So it also has me intrigued. πŸ˜‚
