Black Cream Auto Outdoor/Indoor

Hello Everyone! This is my first grow in life so this go will be one big lesson. I have divided seeds in two groups. One girl will grow indoors, on very sunny windowsill. The rest of them (2 seedlings) are outdoors. Everything looks fine for now. I had also two more seedlings (AK47 and Sweet Cheese) but last night during the long rain snails have attacked them and ate them all :( 21/06: I have saved another seed and now I have four plants growing in total! :) This time I have protected my plants against horrible snail attacks ;P 24/06: I have started to support my Ladies' roots with Hesi Root Complex. In the instruction it says that I can use it from the begining. We will see if my ladies are strong enough :) At the same time sidlings are growing and 2 indoor Ladies are 6/6,5cm high and outdoor Ladies are 4/4,5cm high. I feal like I will have to give them names :)))

26/06 Hello again! So, first week is behind us and there also few first lessons learned. I couldn't stop myself and I have named my Ladies. I know that for some of You it is strange but for me it supposed to be fun! 😎 You will find names in photos descriptions. I have moved my Ladies from starting pots to the correct ones (10l) and it is good I did it because I found that Natalie and Kate (indoor) apart from growing to 8cm height (!) has got nearly no roots! 😱 And this is because of the universal soil which I used. At the time as I was replanting it was hard as a rock! So new soil has been mixed with good quality coco (70%-30%). Now I understand why coco is so popular! Soil started to be soft and loose 😅 Hanna and Anna (outdoor) are smaller (7 and 6cm) has developed better roots system even in the same soil. Of course I have changed their soil too 👍 Weather was shitty this week - rainy and colder. It is hard to belive it is summer! 😩 We had also the snail attack tied with rainy weather but fortunatly nothing has happend to Hanna and Anna 😀 I am feeding them with Root Complex from Hesi every secong watering. I have decided also to make myself an indoor growbox. I have a place in utility room where I can make box with dimensions: 135cm width x 115cm hight x 45cm deph. I hope this will be enough for 2-3 autos. I have all components ready and I will start building it next week. Maybe I will place some photos after I finish. So, that is all for now. I wish You all the Best - stay safe and growing 👊 28/06 I had to protect all of my Ladies with a bit of gardening wire as they were growing high as wild, especially Natalie which is 8cm high! I am not sure if it is ok... They grow faster in height than in width... 😕 Served them again with RootComplex. 30/06 There is not much of a sun this summer in my country... It does not work well for my outdoor Ladies 😭 Today I have started to feed Girls with TNT Complex (Hesi) for grow. I am starting with half of the doze till the end of this week.

So it is 5.07 and Ladies are doing fine. There is a significant difference in size and grow between two Girls which spent first week indoors (on the windowsill) and two which have been left outside (at the covered tarrace). The weather was not spoiling us with sun and temperature. Therefore Natalie and Kate (windowsill) are growing faster than Hanna and Anna (tarrace). I will keep on feeding them with Root Complex till the end of this week and fill switch to regular dose of TNT Complex (5ml/1l). I will also slow down with watering... 😅 Maybe someone will advice me on when to start LST (which I definitely plan to perform on my Ladies? I just don't know if it isn't too early. Thank You for visiting my dairy 👍 Please, feel free to comment on my progress! 😀

Hello again! So another week has passed, weather is still unstable and disapointing... I've started to experiment with LST technic (results can be seen on photos). I am not so sure if I am doing it correct... Please advice me - is this ok or should I have to change something? The other issue is that my Ladies are drooping in the evening and in the morning they look great and stiff. Is this standard behavior? 14/07 I took wires out and let Ladies grow a bit without my control. They grow fine but I will have to spray neem oil mixture as pests are attacking us. Hanna worries me the most as she is small and is growing very slowly... That is a lesson - never germinate seedlings outdoor 😭 Thank You again for visiting my diary.

Hello again 😃 Another week has passed and my Ladies are growing. Still working on training them, also I have tried FIMing but that did not come out as I've planned... Hanna has experienced some kind of a shock because she is still smaller than Ladies which have been germinated two weeks later... Weather is still not helping... 19/07 As Guys are saying we are flowering. Natalie and Kate, to be exact. Hanna and Anna are far behind... First grow is really nerve-wracking... 😄 20/07 I keep on training Girls. There is not much time left as Natalie and Kate are already flowering. It is good though because now I know where the buds will be and I can LST Ladies more efficiently. Anna is not flowering yet but I am rather happy the way She is growing and I am able to perform some LST too. On the other hand Hanna is still the smallest and I will not LST Her I will let Her grow just as is deciding 👍 Thank You again for visiting my diary.

Hello! My Ladies are now 5 weeks old and are blooming. Hanna and Anna are just starting, Natalie and Kate are going faster. I had to leave for few days and when I came back I was surprised - they are growing like crazy! I wonder why... Is it new nutes or effect of induction? Natalie is showing beautiful concentration of flowers and I am happy like a child 😄 I have changed to Bloom Complex from Hesi and keep on training Girls with LST. Only now I start to understand what LST is about. I will do it differently next time. But that is a rookie rule I think 😉 Thank You again for visiting my diary. You are always welcome 😊 Please feel free to comment on my progress 👍

Week No.7 has been started. Ladies are growing really unevenly... Natalie is already forming Her beatiful buds. She smells perfect - sweet, creamie and herby! 😎 The rest of Ladies are a little bit lazy and starting to flower just now. I have switched to bloom nutes, flowering is now 1l evey second day as they are drinking like crazy! 👍 For now grow is easy and is forgiving a lot of my mistakes 🙏 Thank You again for visiting my diary. You are always welcome 😊 Please feel free to comment on my progress 👍

Week No. 8 has started! 👏 I water them every second day, once with nutes and once without with 1l water. Natalie is starting to show some frosting - Winter is coming! 😄 She does not look like she is still growing but started to fatten the budds 👏 Also I have corrected the LST and made some minor defoliation as now I see where the Buds are! 😄 Anna, Hanna and Kate has grown during this week nicely and now they are even bigger than beloved Natalie! 😀 I have to admit that this week was sunny and hot for my Ladies and They seem to love it! 👍 As I look at bud formations I am starting to believe that if I do not screw something up it willl be a great yield! 😇 Thank You again for visiting my diary. You are always welcome 😊 Please feel free to comment on my progress 👍

Week No.9 START! 😆 All Ladies slowed on growing and started to build up Buds! 💪 Well, all Ladies but Natalie... 😒She scared me this week! I installed microscope and looked at buds of Natalie and what I see?! She is ready - 80% milky and 20% amber trichomes ! 😱 But after closer inspection - it is just the biggest bud on the top. The rest is still clear. Strange... I will keep Her for another week or two and HARVEST! 😎 The rest of Ladies need more time but they have grown beatifullly! 💪 They still need another 2-3 weeks. Thank You again for visiting my diary. You are always welcome 😊 Please feel free to comment on my progress 👍

It is start of week No. 10. Watering, defoliating, waiting 😄 From my observation it look like this: 1. Natalie will be ready in 1-2 weeks 2. Kate and Hanna will go to harvest propably in 2-3 weeks 3. She is slooow, so it looks like 3+ weeks. The smell is outstanding! Sweety, creamy, fruity! I just love to sit on my terrace where those smells are close 👌 Thank You again for visiting my diary. You are always welcome 😊 Please feel free to comment on my progress 👍

Week No.11 - here we go! 😜 Since last week not much has changed: 1. Natalie will be ready in 1-2 weeks but I am not sure if she will survive! I am continuesly striping her from samples and now she looks a bit naked! 😅 She is delicious and strong though! 😳 2. Kate and Hanna will go to harvest propably in 2-3 weeks. In the begining of this story Natalie looked as the strongest plant. Now, Kate and Hanna are the biggest and stuffed with yield! 💪 3. Anna is still slow. She is far behind the rest and I just hope she will hurry up before cold nights will come... Generaly, last week brought autumn. It is much colder, rainy and windy. I just hope Ladies will be ready for harvest on time, before temperatures drop belowe 12C... EDIT: 2/09 So, I have decided to cut down Natalie. She stopped taking water and wasn't growing much for last week. The other reason was I stripped her a bit and she was in a shock I think. I wasn't checking the fresh trim weight because it is not a full plant. Now, she is drying. I will come back when it is done 👍 Thank You again for visiting my diary.

Week No 12 has been started. Natalie is gone. That was my first harvest in life and of course I have done it wrong... 😅 but anyway - She gave me a nice time in the evenings 😎 Anna and Kate are growing their buds nicely. I think they need one, mostly two weeks of grow. This is why I have stopped using nutes. This effected in beatifull autumn colours on my Ladies 😎 Hanna, on the other hand is a mutant! I know it now! She smells and looks just as the rest of Black Cream Auto but her colours are different! Maybe she is an albinos! 😅 Thank You again for visiting my diary. You are always welcome 😊 Please feel free to comment on my progress 👍

Week No. 13 It looks like it will be the last week for Anna and Kate... Hanna is still a little bit behind... No nutrients last and this week. Weather has been nice last week and it will stay like this for next two weeks which is great news! This as much as I need! 💪 At the same time it looks like it is an Autumn now. Smell got strong and beatiful - creamie, fruity and a bit cheesy! It is an incredible experience to sit on my tarrace! I will really miss those moments in the winter time... 😅
