F35: growing well. Back left has has nearly all the stems flop over in the last week or so. They're just laying on top of each other on the net. Back right is slower but way more frost. Front right is getting thick and looks good. Other than the floppy one in the back they're all really nice so far. Still giving water nearly every day, feeding a little bit every second.

We're into the start of September and they've only just begin flowering. Hopefully they get to finish. It's looking to be mid to late October!

Hey guys! New week, here we are! As always, every Sunday is cleaning day. Took everything again from the tent, washed the saucers. Was also time to cut down some leaves as it was starting to look very bushy and hard for the light to get through it. During that time, came across with some bugs under the foliage, which isn't a great sign for sure. Not to mention the fruit flies that moved in and are making my life a little chaos. This was the strain most attacked by the flies, and those bugs that live under the leaves. Reducing now the RH a bit, and watering now on every 72h instead of 48h to keep the grow as dry as possible. Increasing the ventilator speed was another attempt, it so much air circulating should be hard for them to make a living inside. Just put now more of those fly traps and will add a couple glasses of cider vinegar here and there, as it attracts most of the flying things with success. Note that some plants are yellowing and that's never a good sign. Though for few weeks it was Nitrogen deficiency, but after increasing it and the CalMag values, the problem persists, so I'm inclined for something bug related. Besides that, temps are still very stable, RH was changed, now to 40% tops, and the light went a little lower to get it closer to the plants - always with the light burn effect in mind. 40cm is the line between the tops and the lamp. Flowering is looking good, buds are forming well and seems that's gonna be a good ending if I can keep the bugs under control. They're showing the first signs of flowering, so we decided to switch already the nutrients in the last feeding of the week. That's all folks, have a great week

Very strongly cut off, I prepare to the beginning of flowering, he released a call that for some reason had a pair of leaves, because of which it turned out to be a little more torn off than it cost, I will give her a couple of days and we will begin the translation into flowering, also revealed a call which has 3 points of growth on each floor. Changed lighting: 37 watts white 55 watts blue, 38.5 watts red, Today I fully watched the side lighting and the electrics, controlled from a smartphone similar to the top lamp

Greetings, fellow cultivators! Week 5 unfurls like a verdant tapestry, and my Blackberry Auto continues to astonish with her relentless growth and burgeoning beauty. Join me in this chapter of botanical marvels, where every leaf and bud tells a tale of meticulous care and burgeoning potential. Unstoppable Growth and Insatiable Thirst: Blackberry Auto's growth knows no bounds as she reaches for the heavens, drinking voraciously from the AutoPot Aquavalve. The rhythm of her growth is like a symphony, each day bringing new heights and newfound vigor. It's a testament to her vitality and the nurturing environment she thrives in. Enormous Leafs and Branch Bending Mastery: The foliage has evolved into a canopy of gigantic leaves, each a masterpiece of photosynthetic prowess. As I continue to bend branches, opening her arms to the light, the canopy becomes a labyrinth of greenery, optimizing light penetration and promoting lateral growth. It's a dance with nature, where every bend is a stroke of horticultural artistry. Budding Beauty Unveiled: As the first week of flowering (or pre-flowering, depending on interpretation) dawns, Blackberry Auto reveals the promise of her floral bounty. The buds, adorned with an intricate structure, are a sight to behold โ€“ a precursor to the botanical masterpiece that awaits. It's a moment of anticipation, where each bud holds the potential for a harvest of unparalleled quality. Rapid Evolution and Community Gratitude: With each passing day, Blackberry Auto evolves into a botanical marvel, a testament to the magic of cultivation. A heartfelt thank you to @fastbuds_official for bestowing upon us this exquisite strain, a true gem in the world of cannabis genetics. To Aptus Holland, my main sponsor, your support fuels this green journey and enables the flourishing of Blackberry Auto's potential. Kudos to Grow Diaries for providing the platform to document and share this journey, and a shoutout to the community for the camaraderie and shared passion that enriches our collective cultivation experience. As the saga continues, I invite you to witness the unfolding chapters of Blackberry Auto's odyssey. Together, we cultivate not just plants, but a shared love for the botanical realm. Stay tuned for the forthcoming adventures in this GreenThumb Symphony!

The substrate maybe got a little hot after the last top feed so won't be adding any more probably this grow! That's my best guess for the mottling on the leaves and crispy ends - as the ends are curling up rather than straight. That's my tip for telling whether it's over- or under-fed or another issue. I'm pH testing every drop she gets (and giving between 6-6.5), so I don't believe it's lockout from a pH issue. She's getting a proper wet-dry cycle. Must be too many nutes. I flushed her yesterday and will continue with straight up water. Hasn't affected overall growth though- the buds are starting to bulk up, trichs continue to show themselves, and the smell ๐Ÿ‘Œ๐Ÿ‘Œ it's like honey and citrus. Veeeery excited for this one ;)

The girl grow pst the circumference of the 5 gallon pot. She is steadily growing on the top, fan leaves look thick and bright green. The stem is growing in girth. I fed her some stump tea along with a gallon of feed water at the end of this week. Let's see how she reacts to it. I have been super cautious in increasing her feed. Since she is growing in soil, I waited until she is a month old before loading her with nutrients. Concerns for this week: This plant is getting real bushy, the fan leaves are pretty big. Its gonna b casting plenty shade in a week ot two. Little bit concerned about light distribution to all parts of the plant. The fan leaves are so big, I am not sure how to begin LST on her. Need to read up more on it. Onward and upward!!

Alright grow cycle, mistakes, improvements, etc... She did stay in veg for too long, her growth was slow and not the best and so she took quite long, next time i'll be there from the beginning so I can take care of her throughout. But her growth is really fun. It is a tall growing sativa with fairly tight noding when trained accordingly, producing long filled colas. The buds grow fairly dense and fluffly but do air out a little when dried. Trichome production was pretty impressive as well as terpene production. She had thrips since her early days but did not seem to mind them at all. I did spray them initially but once flower started I stopped. I believe predatory mites might have been feeding on the pupae in the soil, if that is what this specific species of thrips did, the reason I say that is I could never see adults only larvae. Whatever the case maybe they were there but the population never really increased. Something I did not mention during the grow is that those plants were played music during the days, music that is apparently developed for plants. The 10L pot was WAY too small for a true sustainable living organic and to provide enough space for the plant, that was a mistake, I'd say a 20L would be the bare minimum and still. The bigger the better. The hempy transfer did not hurt the plant and I believe even helped to some extent, BUT, I am still running test on the subject and so can't confirm anything, here are my observations Roots did not colonize the perlite, a little on top and the sides but that was it, I was expecting to see a big root mass in there. I believe hempy are great for salt fert as it hold a soup of nutes where the plant can feed from since the coco only holds very little Whereas in nature most nutrient are in the top soil where the highest amount of decomposition happens, this is where the highest microbial activity happens and so where the plant will find food. Living organic is trying to reproduce nature and so there is no need for the plant's roots to gather at the bottom of the pot. Although it could have potentially provided the plant access to a larger amount of water and possibly more oxygenation of the pot. Those are all theories, please speak up if you have other proofs. In conclusion , unless i get proven otherwise by someone or my latest running experiment , I will not be using hempies again as I believe it brings more complication and issues than a simple fabric pot. The lights, The 600w at the start was good, then I decided to add a 400w...๐Ÿ˜‚ That was completely overkill and not necessary. Waste of electricity. And they started suffering from too much light it seems at some point, I raised the light by a good 30 cm and they were fine. 600 is more than enough. I am happy about how the soil performed but it has room for improvements. As for the watering technique I have been watering large ammount every few days, next time I will be giving constant small amount of water each day and a soak every week or so, I believe the soil might perform better under those conditions. She was also an easy plant to harvest whit her long colas which had very little foliage, I do trim in excess as I like my buds extra clean but the buds are not excessively bushy. The trims were use to make some bubble hash, around 100g of wet trims yielded around 1.5-2g of bubble hash. I did add a negative effect but only because it wouldn't give me a smile otherwise, but to be honnest it barely dries your mouth. The soil is going to be recycled and reused in a next grow. I can't think of anything else at the moment but if you have any question don't hesitate.
