Barneys Farm Wedding Cake Auto

Week Four of flower and this lady is gettin right! 😍 With eight 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. 4/19- Week FOUR of flower's here and man-o-man is this girl looking SWEET! I watered her with 0.75g of dechlorinated water with Fox Farms Beastie Bloomz added @ 0.75 tsp/g and raw honey @ 1 tbsp/g, then ph'd to 6.5 @ 72 deg. 1.2 EC. With roughly two weeks to go on this 75 day cultivar I've been giving her 4hrs/day of supplemental UVA during the middle of her 19/5 cycle and I'll be switching her to Fox Farms Cha Ching on her next feed. Now, this girl's on autopilot and all I'm doing is making sure she's watered, fed and has her pot turned daily...that's it, easy peasy lemon squeezy! ~💚HAPPY 420 EVERYONE!!!💚~ Have a happy and lifted day!...and don't forget to 'pay it forward' 😎🙏 4/21- The 'Frost Queen' is a beast! She continues to stack her flowers forming some beautiful cola's and she has an intoxicating fruity aroma coming off her! I watered/fed her with her usual 0.75g of dechlorinated water to which I've now switched to and added, Fox Farms Cha Ching @ 0.75 tsp/g, and 0.5 tsp/g of raw honey, then ph'd to 6.5 @ 72 deg. I also gave her pot a 1/4 turn. 4/23- Today she recieved .75g of de-chlorinated water with Fox Farms Cha Ching @ 0.75 tsp/g, Fox Farms Microbe Brew @ 0.5 tsp/g and Fox Farms Kelp Me Kelp You @ 0.5 tsp/g which with my starting ph of 7.4, brings the ph to a perfect 6.5! Gotta love it when you don't have to adjust the final ph...awesome! I also rotated her 10g fabric pot 1/4 turn. She's only a 70-75 day strain and with 62+/- on the books she doesn't have far to go. I'll be switching her out to straight de-chlorinated water with Fox Farms Sledgehammer added every third watering @ 2 tsp/g to flush her and bring out her gorgeous colors! 4-25- 💥BOOM!💥 Week eight, along with Week Four of flower are history! This girl's on a mission and has about a week left in her! She's started her fade and has developed the most beautiful coloration in her flowers with purples, pinks and reds becoming prominent now. I'm watering her when she needs it with 0.75g of straight de-chlorinated water with Fox Farms Sledgehammer added @ 2tsp/g, then ph'd to 6.7 @ 71deg. Environmentally, the tent temperatures are maxing out during the light cycle at 79 deg. and I'm running them down to the mid 50's during the 5 hour dark period, which has really helped with her coloration. Well next week will be her final stand before going dark for 72hrs. (which I do with all my plants before hanging) as she's just about ready. I'm checking her trichomes daily and they're at 90% milky / 5% clear / 5% amber....she's close! For those wondering about my practice of placing them 3 days in the dark. What I have found, through experimenting with different times/temperatures is the stress of the extended dark period, especially if the temperatures are kept 55-60 deg., causes the plant to go into 'survival mode'. It gets the plant thinking that winter is approaching and it needs to get fertilized... like NOW! As a result, the plant produces more trichomes to increase the odds of male pollen being captured, and also as a 'protection mechanism' when stressed. Well, it's been an awesome week and I'm anxious to watch her make her final push before harvest. I hope you've had half as much fun as I've had so far on this grow diary! 💚 ~Thank you so much for following along so far! I hope you'll continue to follow my journey as things will be wrapping up as this beautiful Barneys Farm Wedding Cake Auto reaches her finale... Grow Strong! 😎🙏~
