~Entry for the 'Best Rarest & Smallest Pot by Seedsman' contest~
Starring 🤩....
~ Seedsman Zkittlez Auto ~
Zkittlez (Grape x Grape Apple) Auto x Auto Fruit (Auto Fruit Cheese x Auto Blueberry)
Zkittlez Auto is one of the very sweetest-tasting auto strains available anywhere. It is a sativa-dominant (60%) strain that was bred from Zkittlez (Grape x Grape Apple) Auto crossed with a male Fruit Kush Auto, the latter a remarkable fruity strain bred from Fruit Cheese Auto and Blueberry Auto. Growers can expect to harvest some good yields of high-THC buds.
Zkittlez Auto remains a fairly short plant, rarely exceeding 120 cm. in height wherever it is grown. This is a vigorous plant which is able to metabolize a high level of nutrients and she's a thirsty girl too! If growing indoors close to neighbors it is strongly advised to ensure good and effective carbon air-filtration in order to neutralize powerful odors. This strain's life-cycle is approximately 90 days from seed to harvest.
The leaves on this plant are big and wide serving to convert every lumen available into Zkittlez goodness. Indoor growers should obtain between 400 - 500 gr/m2 while plants cultivated outdoors will produce slightly more at 500 - 600 gr/m2. Lateral branching is very good and it is recommended to use supports/ties to prevent snapping and keep buds close to the light source.
This strain's scent is sweet and fruity with candy and berry notes. Its high-THC has been measured at between 21 - 24% with less than 1% CBD. The effect is well-balanced, cerebral and euphoric, and is very good for social situations as well as for relaxing in front of the TV either alone or with company. It also has the added effect of helping to relieve chronic pain, helping with nausea, insomnia and depression as well as stimulating the appetite.**

Weekly Update:
1/24- Well, here we go into the Seedsman Zkittlez Auto's 9th week of flower which will be her last! This fine looking lady has been growing for 80 days since she broke ground and has turned out simply AMAZING! 🤩❤️
I'm flushing every day now with well water that's ph'd to 6.5-6.7 @ 71℉ until I have good runoff and that's exactly what I did today in addition to giving her pot a 1/4 turn.
1/26- Today I flushed the Zkittlez Auto for the last time and I'm going to put her in the dark for 72 hours today after checking her trichomes one last time.
1/30- Yesterday the Seedsman Zkittlez Auto was released from 'Dark Jail' and looked absolutely amazing, covered in frost and sporting some gorgeous coloration on her flowers!
After snapping some pic's I chopped and hung her to begin the drying/curing process. She's hanging in total darkness with a fan, de-humidifier and humidifier to keep the air circulating gently and the RH at 60% (I usually run the RH down to 50% for the first 24hrs, then up it to 60% for the remainder of the hanging time). The air temperature in my drying room stays a constant 53-60℉ which I find ideal for getting the drying time to the 12-14 days I like it to be to ensure a nice S L O W drying which, I've found, ensures a super delicious product after it's finished curing for 3-4 months in jars!
This has been such a fun grow to participate in, and as always, I learned a few things I didn't know previously as I've always grown in much larger containers which made this grow that much more interesting to me! I hope you enjoyed following along half as much as I did growing this little gem from Seedsman Genetics, I truly appreciate all the love and positive comments that I've received throughout this run.... THANK YOU!❤️❤️❤️ See you at the Harvest! 😎🤙
~ Thank you from the bottom of my heart for following my grows and for all the ❤️and support you give! 💚What you grow - Grow what you💚

Cali Crasher is growing great under the Hortibloom Solux 350. She got a lot of training today as well. She had mites early week. She had been treated twice with neem oil and rinsee good each time. 🤞🏻 I got them all. I have not seen any new signs of them since. Everything is going great. Thank you Hortibloom, and Doctor's Choice. 🤜🏻🤛🏻🌱🌱🌱

The plants were fed 3 days ago for the last time.. after the soil has dried, only flawless finish will go (probably from tomorrow) for the next 10-12 days, how long will it last... Glookies has a strong, exotic smell, it smells a lot like melon, sometimes a little like coffee... the smell is intense and can be felt even at 40-50 meters, especially at night... it is currently in full potency, some 90% trichomes are cloudy-milky and sometimes amber, when it is removed it will be exactly what an indica dominant hybrid should be... Dos Si Dos 33# also smells a bit like melon, but I think it will completely lose that smell by the end, no lime, citrus and mint as it says, it smells mostly like gelato, which makes sense because it's genetics,but I like it...it's like I planted gelato lol...but unfortunately I won't leave it as long as it requires because the weather won't allow it, I'll take it down in 12 days at the latest because after that the temperatures will go up to 3 degrees Celsius at night, the humidity will go over 70 , it's going to rain, there's no point in keeping it longer than that, I'm just increasing the risk of mold, and it's not like I haven't already thrown away a couple of moldy heads...50% of the trichomes are cloudy-milky, the rest are transparent and some amber... I hope that by the end it will be able to achieve at least full potency because time will not allow for more amber
These plants are real viking warriors, they didn't miss a bit of stress, but thank the dear Gods, it was reflected in the potency, and not in the production of seeds... this season is the worst season I've ever experienced, and so are my plants ...throughout the season they were under stress, and I was under even more stress...the weather in May and June was cold, without enough sun, temperatures were low, constant rain, ice and storms...after that came abnormal temperatures that easily exceeded 60 degrees Celsius in the direct sun....drought for almost 3 months, without a drop of rain, on the hottest days some plants drank 100+ liters of water, including food, I couldn't believe it with my own eyes... outdoor this year cost me more than if I did indoor... there were a lot of storms throughout the season... the last storm completely uprooted 3 of my plants and I had to take them down... of course I didn't manage to cut that much grass in time, so I ended up with over 600 g of dry moldy gorilla zkittlez( that's about it, the quarter that I cut gave 150 grams of dry matter, so I realized that there was no reason to continue cutting) it got worse because I didn't have time to cut it, and it was soaked from the rain... I still can't complain even if I I don't like the smell, I'm not a fan, it's potent and the work is relaxing and divine, I managed to save about 20 grams without it being touched at all... I have more strains that have been in jars for some time, but this is not the place for them now, I will certainly include some footage of them in jars as well...all the strains are superb and each is beautiful in its own way...I couldn't stop I decide on just one... dos si dos 33, runtz x layer cake, glookies and mimosa x orange punch I'm definitely planting again in the future..
I'm also interested in what barney's amnesia lemon is like because I really like this one, so next year I'll probably plant it too
Dos si dos is about 120 cm tall, glookies 2 m
These two plants had additional stress unlike the others which also didn't suffer...they were in smart pots, staked and one morning I go for a tour and see the plant broken, and the pot torn all the way, like a beast that was there.. .did some wild animal fly over there and got tangled up and uprooted it all... and it was as if someone had cut it with a knife, after a few days the same with the other plant, the same completely... then I seriously started to i mean someone is casting a spell on me lol then they were transplanted in early bloom into direct soil
Then glookies was transplanted to a place with much less sun than it was in, but at that moment I couldn't choose, what is there is..

Creciendo bastante bien
Talvez yo no sé cómo hacer el lst pero está aguantando bastante bien está nena
En un semana creció bastante!!!
Estoy contento
Me está aguantando
Ok
Sábado
No sé si el lst ayuda al crecimiento pero siento que va a avanzando mucho...
No tengo ni idea de que estoy haciendo ni estaba preparado para hacer amarres
Ni tengo idea de cómo lo voy a hacer... Pero realmente quería experimentar ya que veo que todos lo hacen aún que me da miedo romper la planta o estresar la y tampoco se que cortar!!! 😔

A rainy week but she pushed through…I cut two bud Roth spots this week after the humidity spiked again. Her sativa genetics is her only savior for the next 3 or 4 weeks before harvest.

Another week down. As some of you will see, from the three purple kush autos one defiantly has the characteristics of a “purple kush plant” it is very small with odd shaped buds and almost purpley/black. The other two are monsters with no purple traits. I did loose a plant at the start that was also stunted, which likely would have produced another “purple budded” plant. Anyway it has been hotter than hell here, and they pretty much survived a hurricane and tornado, so I think these girls will finish out the summer just nice. I gave them a feed of some cal mag and some fox farms tiger bloom. Other than that they be chillin. Enjoy the weather!
Cheers.

Nun, in der letzten Woche ist Einiges passiert: Beide Pflanzen wurden in ihre 11 l. Stofftöpfe umgepflanzt und in der Mitte der Woche getoppt. Sie haben es sehr gut vertragen und erfreuen mich mit ihrem Wachstum. Überhaupt sind es sehr schöne Pflanzen mit ihren violetten Blattstielen und den hellgrün- und dunkelgrünen Blättern. Gedüngt wurde nicht, da die neue Pflanzenerde erst einmal genügend Dünger bereit hält. Aber dann habe ich die Blumat Tropfer für die automatische Bewässerung in Betrieb genommen und nun sammelt sich überschüssiges Wasser in der Bodenwanne, was den anderen Stecklingen sehr zugute kommt. So war es aber nicht gedacht. Die genaue Einstellung der automatischen Blumat-Bewässerung ist etwas, dass ich zum ersten Male durchführe, habe also noch keinerlei Erfahrung darin und das Ergebnis sehe ich nun. Immerhin habe ich in den Stofftöpfen eine Drainage eingebaut, sodass die Wurzeln nicht geschädigt werden. Die Stecklinge scheinen das überschüssige Wasser zu lieben. die beiden großen hinteren Pflanzen, sind Mutterpflanzen, die ich seit August am Leben gehalten habe, darunter eine Divine-Seeds Fractal-Mutter, für die immer noch kein Ergebnis im Wettbewerb zur Verfügung steht 😒.
Meine automatische Steuerung sieht etwas chaotisch aus, ich hoffe das noch in den Griff zu bekommen.😜 Leider kann ich keinen genauen Wasserverbrauch angeben, da das Wasser direkt aus der Wasserleitung kommt und nicht aus einem höhergestellten Behälter, ich vermute der Wasserverbrauch liegt z.Zt. bei 50-100 ml, ist aber nur eine Schätzung.
Ich wünsche euch eine weitere erfolgreiche Grow-Woche und bedanke mich dafür, dass ihr meinen Report besucht habt. Ich nehme sehr gerne Tips zur Blumat Steuerung entgegen....

Getting closer to harvest every day. In fact, had to start early with Grace, as all of her leaves turned yellow and the trichomes are starting to cloud up. Decided to try the top bud harvest method and allow the smaller buds on the lower portions of the plant to develop more. Read somewhere that it'll allow me to reap an additional 25-50% more flower.

In this week, i defoliated most of the (very) sick leaves on both plants. Afghan Kush is really bushy, Blueberry not so much, she skinny. Both smell absolutely great. Both continue to sweel and grow. We are now, same as in the BPP diary, in what i call the "mostly boring" state. its nice to see the visual changes in the timelapse, but other than that, not much to do besides water them. Both have discontinued to show any new or lets say worse signs of any deficiencies, there are now some overfeeding signs but i rather have that then them trying to creep by.
Watering reduced to 2.2L for each to account for them taking to long to dry out. Roots are STACKED, the soil is almost solid by them. Next grow will be in airpots since i also expect root issues here(ringroots or the like, maybe damage due to overwatering in like week 3/4).
Timelapse i will add tomorrow. Thanks for stopping by and see you next week!

Lots of growth this week and working to solve the humidity issues - Jack had a trim!
I think it's probably because of the size of my pots but these girls just won't stop growing! I bit the bullet and did some light defoliation on Jack this week - it didn't seem to phase her at all so I'm a bit more confident about going further.
I decided to giver her a bit of a trim, mostly the lower fan leaves. It was because she was so dense and tucking the leaves wasn't really working out, she bounced back fine so now I'm thinking of giving her a bigger trim - not sure I've got the guts though!
I've kept feeding her a little bloom every couple of days, not sure if it's helping with her size and density but I don't really want to stop.
Flowers are developing but not as quickly as those on the Chocolate Orange, Jack doesn't smell quite as much as her any more either.
To fix the humidity issues I diverted the extraction duct to another room which seems to have made a big difference, RH is now consistently under 57% and usually around 55% - still not ideal but I don't think I'll get it much lower. I've moved the fan so that there's plenty of air moving over the canopy - hopefully enough to keep away the mould as the grow progresses.

Everything is looking great !
Cheese is nearly done, it is starting to show amber.
Maui is very happy and smells amazing, it just glistens with tri-chromes.
Buttercream is doing well but I think it will take a week or two longer than the others.
Blueberry is looking awesome very large thick dense buds. No Blueberry smell but a very strong plant otherwise.
*Update
Buttercream gelato started throwing Banana's so I removed it from the room. I trimmed it down and did not notice any other signs of hermaphroditism but I will still harvest the plant now just to be safe.
There have been no issues with light or heat fluctuations at all, nothing that would trigger it to Hermie that I can think of which makes me think genetics are the issue.
I have One other Buttercream going that was cloned before this one went into flower. If it hermies late in the bloom like this one has I will remove the strain from my rotation.
I am not particularly pleased with the structure of Buttercream for scrog in any case.
The plant that I took down had very large bud sites but were no where near as dense as the other strains in the tent.

Day 78 - Starting week 12 and I think for sure she’ll get the chop this weekend. Still has quite a bit of white hairs but she’s foxtailing quite a bit and there are no more clear trichs in there, a few amber but no clear. Hopefully letting her dry out and a little cooler temps, she’ll pop a bit more amber before she’s chopped.
Day 79 - Nothing new today other than there’s a few more amber trichs mixed in there. I’m still planning on giving her the axe this weekend unless I see some significant fattening but with the foxtailing, I just don’t see that happening.
Day 80 - She’s just continuing to foxtail more and more so hoping she won’t be to crazy by this weekend cause I’d like her to get a little more amber in her before chopping.
Day 81 - Just waiting until Saturday or Sunday to chop her. I might let her go longer if I don’t get much more amber trichs but she’ll probably come down this weekend instead of foxtailing even more.
