Finally got the Dark Devil. This is a gorgeous strain I’ve had my eye on for some time. Luckily sweet seeds came through in a big way and delivered quickly. Let’s see what we can do with this.
Well, my excitement o grow this one hasn’t been unfounded. She’s coming on fast. Really happy to be growing she seems. Gaining growth fast. Lest see next week.
She’s got some decent growth here heading into week 3. One of the faster strains we have going right now. Upped her nutrients a little bit. All in all going alright, just ready for the show to begin with flower. Still a ways to go. Thanks for looking.
Flowering has begun and she’s already stretching up a bit. Came out of nowhere. I will say these autos seem to be moving along really quickly and really nicely. I’m happier more about the fact, these awesome colors are about to start showing up on her. That’s about that for this week though. Stay tuned!
Another week down. Some More pistils popping up here and there. Adjusted her food. Other than that, all is well. It seems like she’s healthy and shaping up nicely.
Well she’s shot up reaching for the stars this week. She’s already starting to show some color this week. I’m pretty happy to see that. The colors was the reason I wanted to grow this from the first time I saw it. Looks like we’re gonna get lucky on another pheno. She may not end up as vibrant as purple lemonade, but we can hope.
As far as feeding this week, just more roots and humic. We gave no food as encouraged by the guy from sweet seeds. Again, I say I hope they know their genetics better than us, so we listened. That’s about all to report. We will see y’all next week!
This thing is ugly. Not much more I can say about it. At the risk of upsetting sweet seeds I’m starting to chalk this up as a mutated genetic. She’s in the same conditions as every other plant we have. Right next to the gorilla girl xl and many others that are wonderful. I’ve flushed, adjusted my pH accordingly, checked for thrips, just about everything a guy can do to better a plant. So, I’m just gonna let her grow and it is what it is. Thanks for looking at this monstrosity.
I super cropped her in half just like I said. She’s still nothing special. We decided to just try to focus on the good side of this thing. The colors are nice. And the buds are forming. They’re not forming right, look like they’re gonna be pretty loose and larfy, but time will tell. Not much more worth mentioning on this one. I’m just gonna grow her out the best I see fit and it is what it is. Thanks for looking.
***** TESTING COMPLETE ******
I know there will be mixed reviews on this, but she got the chop this week. We have tried everything in our power to make this one right, but she’s not having it. This isn’t our first growdeo and I know a problem genetic when I see it. She’s a waste of space and nutrients at this point. The buds (what little is there) are all TINY and loose and mangled leaves surround. Theses seeds are TESTERS for a reason. If we report back and say they’re great just because they were free, customers that pay get hurt down the road. So for moral and ethical reasons this grow is complete.
Now don’t let that sway you from sweet seeds. I’m not saying anything bad about them. The gorilla girl xl auto looks good enough that to replace this one, I’ve stated the green poison photo. You win some and lose some. This was 💯 not the plant I’d been watching for months before I started this grow. So there it is. I’m sorry if you all disagree with this choice, but it was the right choice in our opinion. I don’t want to put out something , make it look great, lie and say it grew great, and burn people down the line. Thanks for looking all. Please check in our other diaries as we tackle the green poison. Thanks for following along
Sad...
Pretty sure we all got our DD's from a bad batch of beans...super bad success rate from everybody currently running it. And the plants that do even fairly well all have mutations and/or stunted growth...I'll be lucky to have one normal-ish plant out of 4....
@QuantumSkies@Silverback_guerilla , @Treighfunky
We’re gonna get a full shot of everything in all of its what ever you wanna call it this week. Biggest wet fart of a let down you could ever experience. This is why they’re “testers” still though I assume. Can’t all be dimes. Won’t make this mistake again.
@Silverback_Guerilla, same here just cut down 1 yesterday that grew just like this one. Airy as hell big disappointment. Got 1 left still going that has slightly better bud development but still disappointing. Thought it was just me, but these plants looked like shit I was embarrassed. I did a quick wash on the trim last night pretty wild stuff bright purple and super heavy stone the only saving grace.
Thanks for being clear and honest. 1/10 is harsh haha, but it makes the point clear. The rating is for “the grow,” nothing more, and your grow was bunk! So it makes sense! As you said, generic reviews and inflated ratings hurts everyone.
@@BeanswithPork, She went to a good home. A older gentleman we’re friends with is drying it, smoking it, and thrilled about it. I donno how good that’ll be this early, but better than none id assume. Maybe. . .
😂, This one made me laugh.
Come on Wild..... She's not that bad 😉
I've had had some unique plants make a big comeback late in the 4th. I'm glad you're letting it ride. I'm curious to see what she's gonna do.
@Treighfunky, As a crazy last ditch effort I took a real shot in the dark. I snapped her in half on purpose this week. Just like the purple lemonade. I’ve babied this one long enough. Make it or “break it” time.
@Treighfunky,
Thank ya. It’s going to be hard for me to not chop and twist this one up like we usually do. Can’t wait to see this one start showing the colors I’ve seen from them!
Thank you for the honest review. I feel the same just a bunk batch possibly. I have a bloody skunk growing right now that is right on point. Well on to the next challenge.
The same as the other plant, I think you don't need to add more food now. Keep in mind your light is not very powerful.
Also is not a good idea to add Bloom fertilizers until the flowering starts. Now, its on pre-flowering.
I hope this helps you!

Hi, buddy,
