Received safely from Steve seeds overseas. 1/1 with the sour diesel germination. 36 hours in a glass of water then right to a 1 gallon final pot. This sprouted 1 inch above the soil in 2 days flat!!! The entire first week went very well and I'm excited to grow 1 of my all time favorite strains! Any tips with this auto strain would be greatly appreciated. Thank you! Sour Diesel x haze 2.0 x ruderalis Stay tuned!

Week 2 above soil and this Autoflower is doing fantastic! **I'll keep it short and sweet until we get further along but this came from Steve seeds on facebook. Check them out. Received multiple shipments which all include free seeds. Purchased auto flowers so I received auto flower freebies, even better! Tons of stickers, rolling papers and secure tubes for the seeds. Really excited about tgis Sour D! Stay tuned!

The week started super well. Topped the plant on day 18. Then I screwed things up by switching to a tiny tent which increased the light intensity a ton and I didn't catch it until I left for 2 days and arrived to damaged plants. Combo of over lighting and slightly excess of some nutrient. I believe I got a grasp on It and the plant is showing a sign of returning to health and normal activity. The photos are missing 🤦‍♂️🏻 I'm a week behind so check back within the hour I'll update week 4

Early days into week 4 and we are recovering from way to much light intensity and some nutrient issue. Last two feeds were water only. Plant really responding since I raised the light from 16 inches to around 24 inches high. The tent is 16inch x 16 inch with 1 mars hydro 600. Hoping by weeks end this is fully recovered! 🙏Stay tuned I will update this week's photos In a few days: Update: day 24 doing very well now. Decided to do more LST

Things have really gone well for this plant lately and it hasn't shown any signs of holding back. It's not as thick as most other plants in the tent. I have defoliated multiple times but it still was the least work out of 5 other strains yet equivalent in bud sites. I really like how this one has done. If the quality is as good as she has grown in this little 1 gallon fabric pot, then this is something that will definitely get grown again but in 3-5 gallon pots next time. I love this girl. It's one of my all time favorite strains. Stay tuned!

A bit late again but this past week this mini 1 gallon pot Sour Diesel Auto from Steve Seeds is doing great! It has been one of the easiest, fastest and nicest Auto strains in the bunch.. It may not be the biggest or have the most growth but its few bud sites are all very open after little LST and topped once back during week 3. I have a feeling that even though a small yield is expected from this, it's likely to be very pretty & snowy in late flower. I hope things continue to go her way! Stay tuned!

Day 50 for this Sour Diesel 1 Gallon Pot Autoflower! It is doing amazing IMO! This thinghas tons of orange hairs, is stickier, stinkier and thickening everyday! I'm so impressed with this particular strain auto so far! The stock is thick, branching is nice but had low foliage originally and for the little I did it has more bud sites than I expected. I am super excited to watch these continue to roll on towards finish! Nutrients bumped up to nearly half the recommendation of the fox farm tiger bloom. 5ml big bloom/5ml tiger bloom/1.25ml bio root/1.25 ml Cal mag PER GAL (every other watering. Around 2-3 x per 7 day week it receives a nutrient feed vs water only or water with bio root and calmag only, etc etc. This is just under 1/4 gallon each time approximately 1/5th of a gallon. This provides some run off depending on watering technique maybe 10% average run off. Run off average 6.0-6.1 pH I water between 6.2-6.7 typically and make it different each watering by atleast .1 for the sake of full nutrient intake! Thanks and stay tuned!

This past week went really well this plant is finishing really fast! Update today day 59 and last night this had mostly all milky with some slight amber up top. Mid bud has mostly milky some trace clear still. I'm began flushing this, this week. Less than 2 weeks to go and this is becoming dense for such smaller buds and very very sticky. Very sour stinky when u touch it but not giving off a ton on its own yet. Really hoping for around 1/2 oz yield but who knows! She is pretty small in her 1 gallon but beautiful. Stay tuned for more sour diesel updates and photos next week. It's been hard to keep up lately. Thanks

This past week + has gone so we'll for this sour diesel autoflower in a 1 gallon fabric pot of FFHF soil. Absolutely covered in sticky Trichomes. Waiting for her to finish as she hardens up. She has such a sour, sweet skunky smell! 💚 I am in love with this lil girl! Hope she continues to finish out nicely as she approaches chop. My guess is within a week. Just waiting for the right moment. 👍 Stay tuned

Dry yield results: 20.2 grams of usable bud that was trimmed. I am very happy to get 3/4 oz from a pot this size in my first run! Grew so fast and did great for a 1 gallon pot of cheap soil. Not a ton of foliage.

This was an awesome experience with my first ever grow. Was in pre flower before a month! Chopped on day 68/69(mid night) from seed! The site said 70 days seed to harvest! Mostly milky some Amber and a few clear still around but I think it was normal to see a few still or were new trichomes. Very very sticky! Smells sour already after only a few days in a jar! Fried in 4 days or less in perfect conditions. Smaller sized buds but fairly dense for the size and only getting tighter! Wet trimmed and made a hash ball from the scissors the size of a pencil eraser. I have not smoked any yet ! Trying to have patience so I enjoy the first smoke. I will update after cure with a new post! Thank you all for following along with my first ever grow and harvest. Basing taste section off of it's current smell already and past experience with sour diesel medicine. Thank you all for helping with this grow I had so much fun learning so much from this! I also produced medication that I require daily and I have inspected every inch of it to call it safe to smoke. I am so proud. I love grow diaries and I love growing marijuana medicine! Thank you! PS will update in a month or less after cure with smoke results!

Smoke report! Wow this bud is fire! Mega dense, rock hard buds. Super sour smelling and tastes like a dank deep earthy spicey sour d normally does! Very happy feeling euphoric feel. Fairly relaxing still and even slightly sedative in the right mood, could put you to sleep at night. Very mixed effects from an amazing looking bud! I would def grow this exact strain again. Purchased through Steve seeds on Facebook and I'm not sure who the breeder is exactly? But very pleased! Awesome medicine! Thank you all helping me with part of my first ever grow/harvest. 💚
