Week Five of flower and this lady is almost finished! ๐ With nine weeks of initial growth behind her now, the Barneys Farm Wedding Cake Auto is doing great, has fantastic structure, color and is for lack of a better word, impressive... 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! 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.
4/26- Today she recieved .75g of de-chlorinated water with Fox Farms Sledgehammer added @ 2tsp/g, then ph'd to 6.7 @ 71deg. and had her pot turned.
I checked her trichomes today...not quite!
4-28- I checked her pot this morning and she's still pretty heavy so we'll let her ride on water today and just take a few pic's and give her pot a spin.
I'll be putting her in the dark for 2-3 days at the end of this week, which should put her right around 10 weeks +/- a day at harvest time which is 10-15 days longer than the breeders info, but that why they're called estimates. I ALWAYS let the plants tell me when they're ready to be harvested, as well as everything else they may need!
4/30- Well, after checking her trichomes yesterday, I decided it was time for her to go dark!
I went ahead and gave her 1g of straight dechlorinated water ph'd to 6.7 to carry her through the next couple of days and to finish her flush.
She'll be spending 2-3 days in the 4x4 with the fans running. The 4x4 tent temp's are ranging in the upper 60's to 74โ with a 42% RH.
Stay tuned, next entry will be on 5/2 with the harvest and getting her hung up to dry!
5/2- Well, I was busy with harvesting my other tent so she spent a total of four days in the dark. I took her out this evening, shot some pic's of her, then chopped her off at her base and hung her whole in my now empty 4x4. My Drying Room is currently full so I'm doing the best that I can to keep the conditions in the 4x4 in a decent range. The temp's in the tent are in the mid 70โ range and the RH is @ 45% (I'm running a humidifier in the tent along with a small fan on the floor to circulate the air) which I'd prefer to be higher (thus the reason for hanging whole - slow down the drying)to prevent the plant from drying too fast. She should be ready in 10 days or so!
~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! ๐๐~
