Barneys Farm Wedding Cake Auto

Week Two of flower...are we having fun yet?! 😍 With six 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 a really beautiful cultivar that I'm glad I decided to germinate!. 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. 4/5- Week 2 of flower and this is one HAPPY girl! She's healthy and Her shade leaves are pointing literally straight up 'praying all the time! She's currently @ 15" tall and has that great node spacing I just love along with a ton of flower sites all over them which are starting to show some frost on them...I can't wait!!! I've switched up her feeding slightly with the addition of Fox Farms Beastie Bloomz and Open Sesame which are given alternately three days a week. In addition, I'm now supplementing her water once a week each with Unsulfured Molasses and Honey @ 2 tbsp/g and 2 tsp/g respectively. The Molasses gives a boost to the microbial colony as well as being loaded with essential minerals and micro-nutrients that the plants love. The Honey really promotes healthy root systems and is a natural anti-bacterial which I've used for decades with tremendous success! I now have the HLG 650R (hung 38" above canopy) pulling 520w at the wall and will wait to give her max power when I start adding UVA more than likely by the end of this week. Adding UVA for 4 hours in the middle of the light cycle for the last 2-3 weeks of flower really turns on the trichome production and, although I can't prove it yet, has possible positive effects on the terpenes as well. Environmentally, the 'daytime' temp's are a steady 77.4 degrees F and drop to 65 degrees F during the 'nighttime'. The RH is staying around 42-46% which I'd like to be higher to lower the VPD but as healthy and happy as she is... I'll let it ride! I also put the riser back under her pot to ensure that the bottom of the fabric pot gets adequate airflow preventing a possible anaerobic condition from the roots not getting any oxygen, therefore killing them (it only takes 20 minutes of oxygen deprivation to kill cannabis roots! Keep this in mind when watering...don't drown your roots!). 😎👍 4/7- This morning my girl looked absolutely VIBRANT with beautiful color and leaves all praying! Her flowers are covered in trichomes already and she's getting frostier by the day! 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! 4/9- The 'Frost Queen' cometh! Man O' Man this lady is putting out some trichomes now and still has a way to go! She's still @ 15" and is 'praying' non-stop, has awesome color and like I mentioned...the FROST! Her feeding continues with Fox Farms Beastie Bloomz and Open Sesame which are given alternately three days a week. In addition, I'm also continuing to supplement her water once a week with Unsulfured Molasses and Honey alternately @ 2 tbsp/g and 2 tsp/g respectively. The HLG 650R (hung 38" above canopy) is now cranked up to max power and is pulling 660w at the wall and I've start adding UVA for 4 hours in the middle of the light cycle to really turn on the trichome production on her... which seems to be working! 4/11- Week two of flower has come and gone! The Barneys Farm Wedding Cake Auto is 50 days old now and will go 70-75 days...maybe a bit longer, we'll have to wait and see!. I watered her with 0.75g of dechlorinated water with Fox Farms Beastie Bloomz added @ 0.5 tsp/g and Bembe @ 1 tbsp/g, then ph'd to 6.5 @ 72 deg. 1.2 EC I'll be switching her over to straight water during her last week or so to help her use up any nutrients in her and hopefully bring out some beautiful colors in this phenomenal cultivar! Well, there goes this week...next week will usher in Week Three of flower and the trichome production should be off the hook! If you think this lady looks amazing now... wait a week or two when she REALLY starts to strut her stuff!!!😍 ~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 as the flowering gets more intense... Grow Strong! 😎🙏~
