Welcome to my Royal Queen Seeds 🃏 Royal Jack Automatic grow 🍁
Wether we grow for $$$, medicinal or Fun we should all give a little thought to the man Jack Herer. He was in his time an activist for the legalisation of Cannabis and political control over its legality.
_____________________________
March 15th Day 1 - Royal Jack
Dark leaves on stem, got half a coke bottle over her for humidity
_____________________________
March 19th Day 5 - coming along fine, B4RNS pointed out the rhizo was probably a little strong👍🏼
March 22nd Day 8 - 💧watered with plain water for a week.
____________________________
March 25th Day 11 - at least no more leaves crippling. Really f*cked off with myself on this one generally speaking more soil more nutes. This plant is in a 5gal the rest were in 3gal. She is an experiment to show my pal that autos really are worth it. Now my feeling is that I've stunted her a good week to 10 days for very important veg growth.
_____________________________
March 27th Day 13 -
March 31st Day 17 - 💧Just fed above nutrients around 600ppm see how she takes it. At this point I'm focusing on the other girls in my tent. Which is unfortunate because Jack is the only plant in a 5gal pot the rest are in 5 gal. So this time I definitely won't reach anywhere near the potential of this plant. Never the less we will see how this feed goes and the week ahead. If she doesn't pick up il pluck her and start again.✌️🏻️
5th April Day 22 - 💧 Soaked the whole pot so there are no dry patches in the soil. Jack is bouncing back, have the whole pot a water with some nutrients. Chopped the top 2 fan leaves of to expose underneath.✌️🏻️
_____________________________
April 8th Day 25 - took some leaves off and LSTd the main branch again.
April 14th Day 31 - 💧watered today with 10L
She is coming along slowly, still in veg I’m going to LST More in a few days before she hits flower. Before next feed I will flush the soil to reduce salts don’t want another problem✌️🏻
_____________________________
April 16th Day 33 - more LST and more leaves removed. Had a shorty last week. Things turning round especially for Jack. She was crushed by my filter. I snapped the main stem top off tying her down. She really is a fighter!!
_____________________________
April 17th Day 34 - 💧Watered with nutrients
April 22nd Day 39 - 💧Watered with 10L used 5L then another 5L containing nutrient mix
_____________________________
April 25th Day 42 - Sprayed with 0.5ml/L Voodoo Juice
1ml/L B-52
1ml/L Calmag
April 26th Day 43 - 💧heavy feed today give her some boost to get her to start flowering. And hopefully enough N after next feed to get her to the end of harvest we will see. I’m switching to Adanced nutrients line at the end of this grow.
_____________________________
May 1st Day 48 - 💧watered and fed as above she’s stretching out now
May 3rd Day 50 - coming along nicely. The stretch has begun. If she grows another 30cm in 2 weeks we will have a lovely sized bush with strong branches capable of holding big buds... anyway that’s the plan for everyone’s plants right🤗
_____________________________
May 4th Day 51 - 💧fed just the micros:
Voodoo juice 1ml/L
Canna Rhizotonic 1ml/L
B-52 1ml/L
PK13/4 0.5ml/L
Calmag plus 1ml/L
18th May Day 65: 💧10L fed as above, little burning on tips, yellowing all over pre feed. Now she’s coming back.
_____________________________
21st May Day 68: Light feed with 5L:
Voodoo juice 2m/L
B-52 2ml/L
Overdrive 1ml/L
Big bud 2ml/L
Cal mag 1ml/L
May 23rd Day 70 - she is drinking the last feed I gave her well. Did some more defoliation as she is in mid bloom now she can take it well I think. Little bit of time burn from the last feed will 2 step flush the medium before next feed.
(First wet pot with a few liters of plain water. Then follow up with a feed using 5L)✌️🏻
_____________________________
25th May Day 72 - Jack has really started to develop now, her flowers are growing uniformly. Not as fast as I’d like but I have time to wait and see.
This feed, I watered with 5L of tap water straight from the tap. I then waited for 10-15 mins the ppm of the run off was 350pm so that did a good job of removing some build up. I then added nutrients to a further 5L and watered with that. Also added some silicon at 0.5ml/L
_____________________________
26th May - Added 1L with veg nutes, still need N nearly 5 weeks into flower dafuk
June 6th Day 97: 💧5L feed better pictures to come in week 14. Very slow flower development and little to no trichome development. Haven’t grown any haze phenos so is this what I’m experiencing? what do you think?
June 15th Day 106 - 💧watered yesterday... she’s still going, and taking her sweet F**king time about it.
On the plus side she is finally making resin, still don’t smell much😢
_____________________________
June 17th Day 108 - 💧fed: 4 grams of MEGACROP & 2ml/L of boost to 10L or water
_____________________________
June 20th Day 111 - tomorrow is the 4th month decided to reduce light hours to 14 if she starts to ripen up il be over the moon just countless pistils like it’s never going to stop
June 24th Day 115 - 💧provided the roots with some Mykos and a heavy molasses feed 2tbsp/1gal EC1500
I think I may have washed all the bennies out my soil. I Will be feeding just water with no run of for 2weeks then a week of flushing. If she’s ever ready by then.
_____________________________
June 26th Day 117 💧fed MEGACROP@5g/6L and 6ml of PK13/14 to try and give a little boos for the last 2 weeks of flower now as I begin the flush. I will say after pulling her out today she is a beauty, she has a lovely sativa bud structure. If we do ever reach the point where she’s creating loads of smelliness I will be over the moon, let’s just see how she takes us last feed✌️🏻
June 29th Day 120: 💧will be flushing now, to flush for at least 1 week. Hope you enjoy some better quality shots, I will get the microscope out when she’s shes ready ✌️🏻
_____________________________
July 3rd Day 124: maybe week 18 just did a big trim and chopped her down. Hung the whole thing due to temp✌️🏻
I’m an honest person, I will give an honest review! First and foremost, I like to grow autos for there speed. ALong with growing multiple strains at the same time.
I choose strains with a harvest window of 12 weeks max. For that reason, this plant was a burden in the end.
JACK HERER fought for the legality of cannabis most of his adult life. He was an advocate for freedom. Herer believed everyone one of us had the Moral right to grow this magical plant. Being subjected to punishment for expressing our freedom and human rights is wrong. We should not be punished.
“Flower Power”
My only complaint is that this autoflowering plant took so long to grow. My family all enjoy it’s herby, flower taste. I’m more for sweet and fruity. OR just DANK✌️🏻
@PharmaZ, can’t wait to see new photos! The smell may be (temporarily) gone, but you know you’ll get one of the best uplifting, happy and creative effects EVER! Can’t wait to read your final review bro!
@TOTEM, Thanks Bro means a lot! I’m feeling a bit happier about having her in the tent now as she is finally frosting up. I will get some better pics up with her out of the tent, the blurple is just too much. Lost my smell and taste so I have no idea what she smells like, but definitely looking prettier✌️🏻
@PharmaZ,Ok now I see , It looks like your buds produces trichomes but your leaf aren't full of it. My growing mentor had a White widow like that about 1 year ago , no frosty leaves but frosty buds and quite potent so let's wait for the smoke test bro
@OutForReal, posted some close up using iPhone camera and flash, week 6 of flowering IMO this is slow for THC development usually see after 3-4.
Turned the light down to 250w from 400w lowered it more, now sitting at 26c was at 30c ✌️🏻
Dam those branches are hella close man! Did the topping stunt it by much in your opinion? I’m going to start a few autos here within the week and was curious if they could be topped. Everywhere for the majority online say don’t because it could stunt it by 10% if it’s growth time but then I’ve seen some that have come out amazing from being topped.
@JTKush92, Yes, IMO it did stunt it. Edit: sorry hit send by accident.
In terms of how it stunted, I think it could have delayed flowering. Because in terms of the height and overall mass again imo the reason she is only 40cm, is more due to defoliation and excessive LST I think. overall the topping gave greater energy to the side branches as it would any other photo plant. Difference is with the autoflowers the have a life measured in quite literally DAYS so any extreme deficiency or problem in veg will greatly effect flower. I’ve seen monster autos topped TBH so I can’t say don’t do it. But on this plant it was an accident👍🏼😜
@OutForReal, for 16 weeks I’m not over the moon with trich production no. It could well be down to me using to much water (flushed the bennies out), or too little nutrients, see the tips are burnt that’s most likely down to K uptake. Anyhow, things are moving along... slowly. Next time I grow these seeds if they don’t start flowering by week 4 they’re getting donated to someone with more patience’s✌️🏻
@bobo420, thanks bobo although I’m really confused with this plant. Took ages to flower, flowering is slow already 6 weeks no THC. Doesn’t look likes she’s stopping growing calyx any time soon but no virtually no THC just don’t get it...
@bobo420, My updates aren’t saving for some reason. Was a little late on the feed last time. I’m switching off canna terra going to coco in autopots with the full canna line plus big bud and maybe overdrive, I love the idea of a simple nutrient regime like you use. Have some green leaf nutrients max something... coming in the post as a sample I will try it out for sure.✌️🏻
@Wurst, I used a HPS 600w duelspectrum entire grow. For the first 2-3 weeks she was under the full 600w at a distance of about 80cm from the top of the plant till she grew to 30cm tall. As it started to warm up here I turned the light down to 400w setting.
I will be getting an LED at some point, and use both. My plan is to use an LED through Veg then add the HPS as supplemental. Hope that answers your question✌️🏻
