Root popped out of the seed in under 12 hours and it broke the surface of the soil approximately 36 hours after being put in the container. Have not had this strain in a while so I bought 20 to have some fun for a bit as well as I bought over a dozen different auto strains I will be trying as well as some photoperiod strains that I will be doing outside grows with this summer. Thinking about trying to grow some of the auto GDP outside this year possibly to see how she does. Can't wait for her to get going! This is a great strain for pain relief and I love how it helps with insomnia. Hope she turns colorful but either way I am happy to get this going. Until next time happy growing to everyone!

Last week went well. Just waiting for her to get established so she can grow up to be a beautiful purple plant! At this point there's not much to say besides there will be great things to come! I have found that the autos from ILGM have had great genetics. I have foot long solid buds from their autos with great potency and flavor. I expect the same from the grand daddy purple auto! It is my favorite strain of all time for relaxing and pain relief combo. Until next time happy growing to everyone!

Last week went well. She was fimmed and didn't stop a bit thankfully. Did it right after the 4 set of true leaves and once her branches are long enough I will start lst! She is coming along nicely and I think she is going to be picking up her growth rate in the next week or so. Going to be some tasty goodness to come! Until next time happy growing to everyone!

Last week went well. Her growth rate is picking up. Hope it continues to grow like this for another week and the week lst will pay off for sure! Hope that the soil mix I used along with the 5 gallon aerated fabric pot helps give me a decent yield of quality organic bud! It's a soil mix of 40% fox farm ocean forest soil, 30% coco loco coco coir and 30% perlite added. It's my first time using this combo and I am hoping it helps with nutrient delivery and root oxygenation like I have read. Time will tell. By next week she should be under a new Mars hydro ts1000. Time will tell if that works better than the current one. My yield and growth rates should be a good indicator. Until next time happy growing to everyone!

Last week went well. She started to stretch and is flowering beautifully. Has great potential! Hope she has some purple coloring. I did some adjustments for the lst training and it's looking like she will have many nice top colas. Removed some fan leaves that were blocking bud sites and tucked away the ones that could be. Until next time happy growing to everyone!

Last week went really well. She is still stretching but is adding bud sites now. She is another good example of quality autoflower genetics! It's going to be a beautiful monster if it continues as is. She is the first one I have grown in a 5 gallon aerated fabric pot, and because of the results I am going to use that size from now on. This beauty had some of the lower growth removed as well as some leaves that were blocking light penetration. I adjusted the lst ties also to open her up and to promote horizontal growth and for a more even canopy. Also did some supercropping to even out the canopy. She is a great plant with super potential. I will update as she progresses. Until next time happy growing to everyone!

Last week went well. She stopped stretching and is just adding bud mass. I have to say that she has needed more nitrogen and cal-mag than anything I have grown so far. It's not a problem as long as she produces a decent amount of good quality meds! I am desperately trying to find something to help keep the seizures at Bay and help with appetite and sleep as well. I have removed only a few leaves and adjusted the lst ties again to open her up. She is going to be a good yielding auto for sure! Glad I bought a 20 pack of these. Will be starting more once I get my plants outside for the summer! Until next time happy growing to everyone!

Last week went well. Not much happening besides watching her fattening up daily. Had to up cal-mag another.5 mL per gallon because I noticed the start of some minor spots on a couple of the top leaves. She is drinking a decent amount. About a gallon and a half of water every other day. The buds are getting big and I am going to get a decent yield. Until next time happy growing to everyone!

Last week went well. Not much to say besides she is coming along nicely and fattening up daily. If you look closer you can see the purple coming through on some spots of the buds. She turned into a beautiful plant. This is one of the best strains I have tried for pain relief and sleep. It's one of my favorite ones. This is a great example of quality autoflower genetics. Should get a decent amount of good quality meds from her. Was the first auto I grew in a 5: gallon aerated fabric pot. Great outcome. Will update as she progresses. Until next time happy growing to everyone!

Happy Harvest Day!

She made for a super easy and smooth grow. Took being topped very well and lst did well to produce some big and beautiful bud! There is a definite kush spice taste and smell with the unmistakable GDP taste of berries and 🔥! Took a bud from the bottom of a branch and smoked it this morning. It was wonderful. Tastes just like she smells with a great body stone that is great for pain relief!!!! ILGM had great genetics and is one of my favorite auto breeders.

Will update when she is dry. But she made for a great grow. Was smooth with no issues. Tastes and smells amazing. Can't wait to see what she tastes like when finished properly. Have another one of these seeds in a cup of water germinating. Nice solid big buds with pink and purple colorations....... Sorry that the update was delayed for so long. Right after I got it dried and about 2 weeks into cure and my foot was kicked in by DTF. It's dry weight was just over 120 grams after manicured. Was top quality and I know that the police enjoyed it! Will be trying it again in a new place with a similar setup! Just glad that I am free and can do what I love to do! Happy growing to everyone!

@SurlyMahn, you have a good selection of strains for this year. I'm doing a blueberry also and I am waiting for some girl scout cookies autos. Hope you do a diary of them so I can follow along. I will be doing diaries of my summer girls! You should do great this year!

@Ksouth1, I’m planning to grow three strains this year: GDP (photoperiod), Blueberry CBD (photoperiod), and Girl Scout Cookies Extreme (auto). I started the GSCE a little early to get two grows in this season, starting the others by this weekend. They’ll all start off indoors, but will move them all outside when the weather permits. Best of luck on your grow.

@Nugs_are_us, thank you for checking out my diary! This has always been a favorite of mine. This summer I'm going to use one to make feminised pollen, so I can make my own feminised autoflower crosses. Should make for an interesting diary I hope. Going to be mixing it with several different breeders autos and see how it goes. Going to mix some colored auto strains and high yielding autos. Will make a list for people to help me choose which ones to use out of my selection when the time comes so any input would be great!
