Harvest Week. I hope all my North American friends had a wonderful and safe Thanksgiving. I harvested on Tuesday, so due to Thanksgiving prep. I'm late posting the harvest report. Apollo is a wonderful plant to grow. She stayed short. I tried to lst by tying down. Apollo limbs pushed up the pins many times. She is strong and resilient. After watering only 2 liters with Vit B, Recharge and Signal yesterday, I put her in the 3#x3tent in the dark. The leaves were showing the fade using up the nutrients. 11/21 is day Apollo's 71 day and 43 in flower. The harvest window per RQS is 70-75 days from seed. Apollo's buds are thick, dense, stinky citrus floral and sticky. As she hangs to dry, she is pungent and stinky. I am so proud of this grow. I didn't overfeed so I have experienced the color fade to yellow as foods are used up and the delicate colors emerge in the sugar leaves. I am very impressed with Royal Queen Seeds F1 genetics. So much so I bought Milky Way F1 and Medusa F1. I will definitely have another Apollo grow in January. Thank you @James at RQS. After hanging to dry 13 days and a little bit more trim, Smokable bud 128 g or 4,5 oz. Wow this is my best harvest and grow ever. I put her in the jars to cure. Apollo F1 had a huge base stem and was multi branching-even the side stems had side stems. The stems were sturdy. No support is needed for her branches She stayed short at 26 inches tall. I definitely pushed her on the watering. When I saw no runoff after 2.5 liters of water, I upped to 3 ltr. Then 3.5, then 1 gallon. I watered 2 liters, let the water absorb, then slowly add another 2 liters. There was a small amount of run off at the time of watering but was all gone by the next day. It could have been evaporation, but I really think it was consumption. Consumption is an indicator of yield. As densely bushy as she is, I'm estimating at least 90 grams. So for future grows, especially for very bushy plants, I will defoliate at least 2x during early and midflower to open up the canopy and let the plants bulk up more. She did show some nutrient (cal-mag) deficiency and for the next Apollo grow, I will push the feed a bit. I'm excited and a bit sad to see this grow come to an end at the same time. I really want to sample the smoke and feel the effect. Apollo is a balanced Hybrid. Thanks for the visit. Apollo and I appreciate the likes, views and comments. Be sure to check out my Recipe diary for some tasty edibles, basic infused sugar, butter, honey recipes to kickoff your edible making experience. Also some health and beauty recipes as well. Have wonderful week. Happy growing and have fun. Natrona ******************************** Apollo F1 is a vigorous auto flowering hybrid that boasts a strong structure and delicious aromas. Created from inbred lines descending from Lemon, Black Domina, and Sugar Magnolia, Apollo F1 inherited premium genetics from her predecessors. Like the ancient Greek deity she's named after, Apollo F1 produces balanced, creative effects that might inspire your perception of music, dance, poetry, and more! Mature and well-dried Apollo F1 flowers boast an upfront fresh aroma that combines crisp pine and herbal notes with the invigorating kick of ripe citrus peels. Accentuating these notes is a rich backdrop of dark vanilla and hints of lavender, reminiscent of modern cannabis varieties descending from Cookies and other US lineages. Apollo F1 produces a resin loaded with plenty of cannabinoids (predominantly THC) and a complex mix of terpenes including myrcene, terpinolene, farnesene, caryophyllene, ocimene, limonene, and linalool. As a result, Apollo F1 produces a balanced effect very typical of a well-bred hybrid—expect a powerfully relaxing physical sensation (characteristic of myrcene, farnesene, and linalool) mixed with a notable euphoria and motivating kick produced by terpinolene, ocimene, and limonene. Apollo F1 is a robust cultivar with the telltale compact structure of an indica-dominant hybrid. Plants reach a medium height with many tightly spaced branches that quickly become loaded with bud sites and thick, dark-green foliage. Apollo F1 flowers automatically, and her entire life cycle lasts roughly 80 days. Come harvest time, Apollo F1 will reward you with big, dense flowers bearing a thick layer of trichomes. Variety: F1 Hybrid auto Genetic Background: Lemon x Black Domina x Sugar Mangolia THC: Very high Yield: XXL Height: 55 - 75 cm Flowering time: 45 - 50 days Harvest: 75 - 80 days after sprouting Effect: Calming, Creative, Motivating , Physically Relaxing Flavor: Citrus, Herbal, Lavender, Pine, Vanilla Major terpenes: Caryophyllene, Farnesene, Myrcene, Terpinolene Climate: Short Summers Friends, Royal Queen Seeds Is offering a discount on purchases 👉**GROWERS20** for 20% 👈 Https://www.royalqueenseeds.com Link to Apollo https://www.royalqueenseeds.com/us/56-f1-hybrid-cannabis-seeds ==================================== Equipment: AC Infinity CLOUDLAB 844 – Advance Grow Tent 48”x48”x80” CONTROLLER 69 PRO – Grow Tent Controller CLOUDLINE LITE 6 - Inline Fan 6" IONBOARD S44 – LED Grow Light Board 400W CLOUDRAY S6 – Oscillating Circulation Clip Fan Carbon Filter 6” Pots: 5 gallon Air pots Soil Fox Farm Happy Frog amended with worm castings, perlite, dolomite lime and mycorrhiza.

A great week for these autos! I’ve slowly increased the feed as I go and they’re loving the environment! I was doing better last time but this is the things with autos they run in their own fashion! Just spring into action when ready different phenos and characteristics which change late sometimes! But proved the comparison by not using dynomyco this time (only in the photos) shows the difference in the early stages!

First week under big light, and in big pots. The light is at 50% giving me an average 550umol at 2ft. The ec fans are running about 50%. Total power consumption is around 600w so costing about 0.10 per hour to run.

Done with drying, I cut her bud sites and placed them into a mason jar. I bought the boveda packs that are 62% RH. Now time to sit and wait 2-3 weeks and see what the finished product is like. Again everyone thank you for watching the grow up! 🙌🏾🔥🌱 I do have another diary with 5 auto berry’s, if anyone would like to continue watching the grow up. 🙌🏾🔥🌱 I have a lot more confidence in the autos just because this grow was my first time grow. Now I know the basics and everything else on what to do, so better and bigger buds on my next grow. ✊🏾😎

Welcome to the garden. We are three weeks deep into the vegetative stage, and the ritual is officially underway. I prefer running from seed there is something alchemical about watching them crack open and rise from the soil and these girls have taken to their new reality with aggressive vigor. The lineup for this run is a study in contrasts: - NineWeeksHarvest - GrapePak: She’s already showing a structure that promises density. Expecting sweet, heavy resin production here. - Solfire Gardens - Barf Breath: The name says it all. I’m hunting for that loud, offensive funk that Solfire is known for. She’s stretching out a bit more than the Grape, demanding her space early. Current Status: Things are dialed in. The stems are thickening up, and fan leaves are praying to the light. No deficiencies, no stress. Just pure, unadulterated growth. I’ll be looking to start some light training soon to break their apical dominance and spread this canopy out before we flip. Stay tuned as we push these genetics to their breaking point. PS: I don't know which Plant is which. We'll find out during flower :)

Going well, have a small light burn on one of the Skrilla colas..sad, but must soldier on. Still very frosty. Colors are developing in the hair now and there is a noticeable change in each cultivar. Nana Glue developing a red-brown hue and delicious Earthy, creamy terpenes. Skrilla is packing on weight and stacking, lowers are crowned in orange hair. Smells like Like Jolly-Ranchers. PLCG is packing on some weight, all the buds are getting that spherical addition. Also, some of the frost on the leaves, termed 'frost rails' by a friend, have begun to turn a nice pink color. Let's see where this grow goes this week. Maybe some color or weight. The smell is very good. PLCG is like a scented highlighter, very lemon. 🍋 The Skrilla is like a sweet and sour candy, quite delicious. Nana glue is Earthy and cream, very rich.

Growing funky as hell but she's healthy and surviving. I like the funky ones. Let's see what she can produce. I'm probably going to transplant and then flower here soon. Haven't had to feed her or anything yet. Reusing your soil. Adding worms to your old soil and then reusing it, creates a very strong soil. Not hot but strong and healthy. The worms basically keep the soil fresh and healthy. Check out my YouTube. It's growing quite quickly. Come join the community over there. Say hi if you're from growdiaries and let's keep growing. I may be opening up a tester program soon
