Hey Guys, so I have ran into some difficulties regarding our power supplier. Due to the current situation we are facing in South Africa the power company "Eskom" does not have ample supply to provide constant electricity to our country anymore. This is very sad. So they implement a system called "loadshedding" where the cut off power supply in certain suburbs at certain times. This has got me in a complete and utter flat spin as I'm not always at home when this happens. The past 2 weeks have been immensely rough as we we're scheduled for outages 3 times a day for 2,5 hour intervals. Between 02:00AM - 06:30 my tent's power went off (depending on scheduled time). This has in fact caused some VPD problems ( I tried getting up every night, but I still have to get enough sleep for work ). As you can imagine, it sucks BIG TIME. I've done my best to keep at par & doctored where I could.
*Decreased Light Intensity (600W)
*Decreased Wind Velocity on canopy
Almost approaching the start of week 3.
Feeding schedule from 3 day interval - 2 day interval ( 2L per feed )
Selective defoliation to get light on lower tops.
Used some garden wire to support 2 main colas which we're too high.
Note: Pest/Mould check done. Foliar sprayed with H2O2 (hydrogen peroxide) @ coolest part of day
- Next day applied high alkalinity ph'd water to kill mildew spores
- Fan heater running from 03:30AM - 06:00AM, pulsing/regulating temp at 19-21Β°C [ until light comes on ]

F62- Week 9 of flower starts tomorrow on day 64, gave them a flush today with about 3 litres each, water was Ph balanced to 6.4. The green crack has some leaves that have started to die off and curl at the tips, but the buds are still looking great. Not nearly as much colour on the leaves of the other two plants, which seem to be doing much better overall. Think that whenever I choose to grow next time I may just go for the NLxSkunk1 and see how much I can get off a plant or two, its a good yielding plant that has some very hardy genetics clearly. The trichomes have all started to turn cloudy, maybe about 50/50 cloudy to clear, will see what its looking like in a week when they're about to get the final watering. That's about it for now, hope that everyone out there is staying high and somewhat dry! Cheers
F68-More amber hairs now, watered again yesterday. Will likely water once more before I chop them down, then let them hang for 10 days.

Ok guys week two went fast and easy on this Bruce banner auto from monster genetics. It's starting to show it's second set. I gave her her first dose of worm tea to the soil aswell as a foliar feed to prevent disease. Started incremental light increase this week this strain is very quick to respond to the light intensity it told me with her leaves very quickly right where she wanted that light and found her max without causing harm. Did have to back it down a hair though. Started pushing her around a little flexing her stem and giving light quick flicks as a result her stem is already gaining strength. She is all around healthy and happy and there are no early signs of deficiency. It's looking good and so far I'm really liking what I see. If you like auto grows or this strain in particular or if your interested in organic/living soil growing hit the follow button and watch her grow with me! Thank you for reading about my grow and all questions or comments are welcome happy growing

She is at day 91 from seed at the time of this writing. I have been flushing her for about 4 days already and will continue to flush for 1 more week. She is changing leaf colors in the spectrum of red, purple, yellow,and orange; a true beauty. I am taking her down next week on day 98 and will let her ripen and give one final push on the bud swell. I also performed backbuilding techniques on the main bud sites which entailed the clipping of the top of my buds ( about 2 cm).The terpines from this plant is amazing. When i touch the flower she feels nice and dense with a smell of lemons, gummy bears, and diesel. She is naturally defoliating nicely although i do pluck off a few dying yellow leaves here and there. I did go through and cut off the smaller "larfy bud producing" branching in order for the plant to concentrate more so on the swelling of the more desirable colas in this final push. So far so good, i would just like to see more of the white pistols go amber, which they have started to do, before i harvest. I did trim and oven bake dry those little popcorn buds i trimmed off and went for a test smoke in some bamboo papers. Although i destroyed the terp flavors by doing so (expected) the high was clear and long lasting, very pleasant with zero couch lock. A decent body stone and mostly a cerebal pleasure. I cut my nephews hair right afterwards and was able to focus....which i like. I only expect the final product to be even better.

Not much to be done, watering this week at 6.0 just to ensure there is no nutrient lockout, feeling a little as though these two have been slow in the past week. Buds progressing but feel like it should be quicker at this point. Fourth week of flower

Entering week 2 of flower! She did A LOT of growing and changing in the first week and I was able to get her canopy laid out nicely in the 4X4! This week is a continuation of that. Slowing tying down branches as not to stress her out. She came down with some broad mites last week ( I can only assume despite all precautions, I brought them home from work, as we had a problem with them in our veg room a couple weeks back) Steady, heavy Nuke Em applications is showing improvement!
3/28 Update: We seem to have won against the bugs! I will continue preventative sprays for a week or so just to be sure they are gone, but I think we are in the clear. I believe I have successfully managed her canopy as well. We are two weeks into the stretch and she has plenty of room to go up now (which was my main concern with her)! I actually brought her down from 43in in the last week of veg to 40 inches this morning through dropping a net and slowly tying and spreading branches! π

Week 10 into this grow and just finished week 4 of flower. The girls are looking great and starting to smell just as great. Definitely some hungry hippos.
Buds are filling in nicely. Already medium sized and still going frosty colas. Beautiful widow white with that pungent gorilla smell.
Like I said before such a wonderful mix. Added a video this week of the girls and my canopy.

She has started her bloom. She is growing so well.
This week I took off all her tie downs. Then 2 days later decided to tie her back down.
She has had steady tension on her branches. So when I released her, she tightened back up. With the ties on, there is little reason for defoliation, as of now.
She gained height, but nothing crazy. All her main top branches have always been pulled down to be side branches. Everything else was let to grow that came up the center. Really the side branches are the top of the canopy. Surprised I have not broke a branch.
8/26 2 gallons Fed 8 tablespoons Foxfarm Big Bloom, 15 MLS Tiger bloom and Foxfarm Open sesame 1/2 teaspoon.
8/30 Gallon and a half of tea. Cow and worm poop.
Every year I'm going to grow a photo in a different shape. This year I just wanted to see how many tops I could make.
Looking forward to next year's design. However not as much as I want to see what this voluptuous beauty produces.
Voluptuous seems to be very fitting for her. Love this plant, she has been very fun to grow. She also thought me a lot.

2 week update,
Really like the way she's stacking nice really dense smelly nugs not foxtailing even though the temps got really high at one point, my og kush is a mess she is massive fat nugs covered in fox tails π
had to let her lie down a little as she got way too big for her grow space, been a long haul with this auto but I'm sure the extended grow time is due to the LST, I'm going to check tricombes again in 5 days if everything looks right she will get a nice 10ltr flush and a further 4 days of no liquid π€
