Well here we go into Week Seven and the Fourth Week of flower! ππWith eight weeks of initial growth behind her now, the Seedsman Strawberry Cheesecake Auto is doing fantastic and is in flower now and stacking her flowers and, being a 12 week strain, still has a good four weeks to go! Thank you for following along this journey with me! Growing this beautiful cultivar is always better with someone to share the experience with....come along and enjoy! ππ
~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 four weeks to go on this 84 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 nutrient to Fox Farms Cha Ching in the near future.
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!
~πHAPPY 420 EVERYONE!!!π~ Have a happy and lifted day!...and don't forget to 'pay it forward' ππ
4/21- This girl is a beast! She continues to stack her flowers forming some beautiful cola's and she has an intoxicating aroma coming off her already!
I watered/fed her with her usual 0.75g of dechlorinated water to which I've added, Fox Farms Beastie Bloomz @ 0.75 tsp/g, and 0.5 tsp/g of raw honey, then ph'd to 6.5 @ 72 deg. 1.2 EC, I also gave her pot a 1/4 turn, did a dab with her and read her some poetry by Kinkaid π
4/23- Today she recieved .75g of de-chlorinated water with Fox Farms Beastie Bloomz @ 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.
I will tell you for a 50+/- day auto this girl's got it going on and then some! She's already forming some decent cola's and she has that unmistakable Strawberry Cheesecake aroma I so love!
I'm absolutely hooked on this strain and am so happy that Seedsman now has it as a regular offering! ππ
4-25- With 54 days of growth and four weeks of flowering behind her, this 12-13 week cultivar still has a way to go my friends... and she's already impressive!
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 really helps with bringing out the gorgeous colors in some strains! The HLG 650R is running at max, pulling 660w at the wall and remains @ 34" above the canopy.
Today I watered her with 0.75g of de-chlorinated water to which I've added, Fox Farms Beastie Bloomz @ 0.75 tsp/g, and 0.5 tsp/g of raw honey, then ph'd to 6.5 @ 72 deg. 1.2 EC, I also gave her pot a 1/4 turn...patted her on the butt and told her to keep up the good work! π€£
Well, onward to Week Five of flower things are gonna be heating up in the tent! Be sure to check in on her progressβ£οΈβ€οΈ
~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 go by with the Strawberry Cheesecake Auto busting out flowers... Grow Strong! ππ~
