Wow!... Week Twelve and Week Three of flower... ๐๐ With twelve weeks of initial growth behind her now, the Dutch Passion Auto Glueberry OG is on a mission, still sprouting new growth everyday... what a BEAST! I can't believe how long she stayed vegging. Now that she's transitioned into flowering, albeit pretty darn slowly, it'll be getting more interesting as these next few weeks come! Thank you for following along this journey with me because growing these beautiful cultivars is always better with someone to share the experience with....come along and enjoy! ๐๐
~Grown 100% organic in a 10g fabric pot with Mother Earth 70/30 Coco/Perlite medium amended with 2tbs/g Down To Earth 4-4-4 - 2 cups/g Earthworm Castings - 1tbs/g Dr. Earth Flower Girl 2-8-4 and 1tbs/g Dr. Earth Bat Guano.
~24hr light cycle during germination / 19/5 light cycle for Veg & Flower
~Straight water ph'd @ 6.2-6.8 when needed, top dressed every 3-4 weeks and weekly Compost Tea's.
5/17- All I can come up with is WOW, Twelve Weeks and just showing pre-flower signs and starting her stretch...UFB!!! ๐ฎ
Although it was three weeks ago when I first saw her showing signs of her sex, and I started the 'Flower' phase, I'm now inclined to bump that back a week due to how slowly she's moving into flowering.
As mentioned in last weeks diary, if her flowering has not picked up by the time the two other auto's in the 4x8 with her finish up, I'll try cutting the light back to 12/12 for two days and see if that 'kick starts' her fanny! ๐ฅ
Today the 'Beast' was watered/fed with 1g of de-chlorinated water with Fox Farms Beastie Bloomz @ 0.5 tsp/g, Fox Farms Big Bloom @ 3 tsp/g, Fox Farms Tiger Bloom @ 2 tsp/g and Fox Farms Grow Big @ 2 tsp/g then ph'd to 6.5 @ 1.6 EC. at 71โ.
5/19- I held off on her feed today and instead gave her 1g of de-chlorinated water with Fox Farms Sledgehammer @ 2 tsp/g, Fox Farms Microbe Brew @ 0.5 tsp/g and 0.5 tsp/g of raw honey added, then ph'd to 6.6 @ 71โ 1.0 EC
Coming up on EIGHTY FIVE DAYS and my girl NEEDS to get on with it and flower for heavens sake! She's already proved that she can veg longer than every other auto in the tent! Now she needs to break some records with some aggressive flowering!
I'm leaving for a week vacation in 32 more days and, at this point, I'm really not confident that she'll be finished by then! I'm establishing a contingency plan with another local grower to 'babysit' her for the week I'm absent...fingers and toes crossed! ๐ค๐ผ๐ค๐ผ
5/21- I let her dry out yesterday and today she was watered/fed with 1.5g of de-chlorinated water with Fox Farms Beastie Bloomz @ 0.5 tsp/g, Fox Farms Big Bloom @ 3 tsp/g, Fox Farms Tiger Bloom @ 2 tsp/g and Fox Farms Grow Big @ 2 tsp/g then ph'd to 6.5 @ 1.6 EC. at 71โ.
5/23- Yesterday was another 'dry out' day. Today she recieved her regular feeding of 1.5g of de-chlorinated water with Fox Farms Beastie Bloomz @ 0.5 tsp/g, Fox Farms Big Bloom @ 3 tsp/g, Fox Farms Tiger Bloom @ 2 tsp/g, Fox Farms Grow Big @ 2 tsp/g and additionally Fox Farms Kelp Me Kelp You @ 0.5 tsp/g then ph'd to 6.5 @ 1.8 EC. at 71โ.
She now has an entire side of the Gorilla 4x8 to herself along with her own private HLG 650R w/UVA Bar and looks to be loving the extra space! My other autoflower will be leaving and giving this lady the run of the tent at which point I'm strongly considering adjusting the light cycle back to 12/12 to see if it might 'kick start' her into flowering a bit more vigorously....have to smoke on that one! ๐คช
~Thank you so much for following along so far! I hope you'll continue to follow my journey as things will be getting more exciting as the flowering picks up and this giant autoflower from Dutch Passion starts struttin her stuff... Grow Strong! ๐๐ค๐ผ~
@Rock_n_Roll_Randy, IKR! This is what happens when you have a 'Auto' that decides it would rather be a Photoperiod! I'm flipping her today after 95+ days of veg...Look out! ๐
i see all your lights are HLG. I love mine. Are they a presence on this site or is that all Instagram?
I figure u have to be doing something with them if you are all HLG!?
Was gonna rock a diablo but Viparspectra is hooking it up instead.... and u cant argue with free....
I just would like to promote HLG some tooooooo!
@TheCannaProphet, yeah i literally have a stack of free "beginner" lights i've recieved from this site, Vipar is hooking it up with a big boy light too b/c i told them i simply couldnt use another small light... but you def had me curious!
Both my germination and veg light are bought by me from HLG tho.
Did HLG hit u up on instagram or growdiaries?
They did give me a free shit at CannaCon lol I was in fanboy mode
@Inganjawetrust, TY kind sir! It's been an extended relationship to say the least and I think we're both about ready to take it to the next level! ๐
Hello there! Your lady is looking beautiful and healthy, and only in a 10liter container?
Lovely big buds in the process, going to be cool to see those develops, all the best for this week ๐๐
