Barneys Farm Wedding Cake Auto

Well it's been fun watching her go through veg, and now she's going into flower and getting ready to really strut her stuff! 😍 With five weeks of initial growth behind her now, the Barneys Farm Wedding Cake Auto is doing great, has fantastic structure, color and continues to impress me.. Her comeback and development have been noteworthy and she's turned out to be one of the biggest 5 week old's so far!. Thank you for following along this journey with me, growing these beautiful cultivars is always better with someone to share the experience with....come along and enjoy! 😎🙏 ~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. 3/29- Here we go into pre-flower and stretching to the light! My lady's structure is really looking phenomenal and really doesn't require much maintenance at all at this point. With her wide node spacing and an almost sativa appearance, she has plenty of light penetration throughout her entire canopy all the way to the medium which will help her flower development. The HLG 650R is now pulling 450w at the wall and remains 38" above canopy. Temperatures, RH and VPD all are gtg and on point with 'daytime' temps at a constant 76 degrees @ 50% RH, dropping to 65 degrees during the dark period. Daily watering continues with 0.75g straight de-chlorinated water ph'd to 6.5 @ 72 degrees 200ppm 0.4 EC given to her first thing in the morning after the light comes on. Foliar feeding before lights out continues every other night. 3/31- I plucked 2-3 leaves that were too stubborn to tuck out of the way to maintain light penetration. I love how she's growing...very 'low maintenance'! When I checked her pot's moisture this morning she was still pretty moist so I'll wait until later today and check her visually and her medium with a meter to determine whether to water her or wait until tomorrow morning to water her. When I do water her she'll get 0.75g straight de-chlorinated water ph'd to 6.5 @ 72 degrees 200ppm 0.4 EC as always, and of course her nighttime foliar sprays continue three nights a week. 4/2- The Barneys Farm Wedding Cake Auto has fully bounced back from her defoliation 3 days ago (it was mild as she's got wide node spacing) and you really can't tell I did anything at all (I'm so leery about stripping autoflowers too much and this always happens to me 😜). I'm letting her tell me what she needs now. I'm closely monitoring her, watering when she show signs of needing it (leaves JUST starting to droop) and nutrients (when her color JUST starts to be not as vibrant). Right now she is doing phenomenally and is STILL putting out new growth at a crazy pace!! When I'm watering her it is with 0.75g straight de-chlorinated water ph'd to 6.5 @ 72 degrees 200ppm 0.4 EC and I'm watering her pot through the top, allowing time for the medium to slowly absorb it, avoiding any runoff. I also placed the pot riser back under her to avoid the possibility of an anaerobic condition to develop from the bottom of the pot staying wet, which could cause all kinds of issues including Root Rot. This weekend I will top dress her with 2 cups of Wiggle Worm Castings and then water it in with 0.50g straight de-chlorinated water ph'd to 6.5 @ 72 degrees 200ppm 0.4 EC. I'll run an air pump with air stones in it to oxygenate the water which REALLY helps keep the environment in the medium aerobic, which both the roots and microbes LOVE! When I water in the castings I'll add 2 tbsp. per gallon of Grandma's Unsulfured Molasses to the water which will supercharge the microbes! 4/4- I top dressed her with 2 cups of Wiggle Worm castings and watered it in with 0.50g straight de-chlorinated water to which I added 1/4 tsp/g of Fox Farms Beastie Bloomz, then ph'd to 6.5 @ 72 degrees 400ppm 0.8 EC to really give the medium/microbes a huge boost and a BIG PK bump which will result in one happy Wedding Cake Auto! This morning my girl looked absolutely VIBRANT with beautiful color and leaves all praying (and I mean PRAYING...like pointing straight up!). 😎👌 She must have really enjoyed the PK boost from yesterday huh?! When I checked her medium was still fairly moist so I held off with the AM watering and will take a look at her this afternoon and see whether she wants a drink or not...she'll tell me! Well it's really been a great week, the Wedding Cake Auto is in flower and is stacking nicely with some nice frost forming. Next week promises to be just as, if not more, exciting so stay tuned for all the action! 😍 ~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 next weeks approach with my girl into flower now... Grow Strong! 😎🙏~
