Despite the splendid aroma and delicious profile, the cultivation process of "Blueberry Auto" proved to be less favorable than promised. My expectations collided with reality when the plant remained relatively small, despite all my efforts. The sown seeds exhibited a discouraging germination rate, and even those that sprouted turned into mutants, adding unpredictability to the process. Despite these challenges, it cannot be denied that the scent and taste of this strain are so captivating that they compensate for many cultivation shortcomings. This raises food for thought: in the pursuit of the perfect growing experience, where aroma and plant size become paramount, how does one strike a balance?

Well, these ladies are growing like weeds! 😃 I am getting ready to do their second topping. They seem to be taking nutrients well. I am planning on vegging them out for at least 3 more weeks. Going to have some monsters! 😎 Sincerely, thanks for all the support. 🙂

8/10 - In prep for flower I've got some Compost Tea brewing with a little Terp Tea Bloom by Roots Organics. .Also did a little selective defoliation 8/11 - Flipped the ladies to flower today! And all is good in the 8x4. 8/12 - Watered all the ladies with the Compost/Terp Tea. Also did some more defoliation and added some mosquito bits for added pest prevention.

This was a very easy strain to grow and she took very well to LST. I thought she may have been stunted early on due to have to much power on the light but once it was dialed down and found where she liked it, she took off. I had no deficiencies along the way and she produced some pretty fat and dense buds. To me, she’s putting out a pretty potent earthy citrus smell and looking forward to getting her into curing jars in the next 7-10 days to really bring her smell out. Overall for growth and being able to harvest at around 70 days, I give this girl a 10 out of 10 and we’ll see about the smoke report in the next week or two.

Who knew managing 3 phenos would be this hard! Lol CSK 1 (Far left) - This plant was doing fine until I checked the PPM and it was at 2300 😳 - I’m going to skip nutes for 1 week to see if it drops. CSK 2 (Middle) - This plant has the slowest uptake of all three plants! However, I did test its PPM at 1900. I will skip nutes for 1 week and see if it drops. CSK 3 (Far Right) - This plant is the second fastest uptake and was tested at 980 PPM so this is a fairly hungry plant. I noticed the leaves on this plant appears yellow. I suspect this might be Nitrogen + Potassium deficiency. I will only water this plant with those specific nutrients this week at a low dose. Additional, I added another 3k LED for supplement lighting. Tested the PPD and lowered the light intensity. To minimize the loss in heat, I increased the height of the LED lights.

Think these will be done by end of week 8 possibly, adding UV + IR for terpes and pushing for an earlier finish! 🍋

This is the final week, they are going to be chopped coming week. Already had some darkness and they are very very smelly. I am amazed at this strain's resilience. It had to deal with my noobishness with autos, heat, very hot soil and less PH buffering with my own super soil recipe (see the yellow image in the germination page) in the smaller bags. Still, they became huge and full of bud. Forbidden Runtz is an amazing strain. Very strong growth but also with most auto's I've grown: once the grow derails, it seldom recovers. But these do. I'm sure next grows I'm going to get even more out of them. Can't wait to try them again with what I've learned now. And you should all consider the SP-3000 as a growlight, look at my results! I will update when I've harvested, thanks for visiting!! Don't forget to check out the special spring discounts on www.mars-hydro.com Big hug Bud

Ok guys was down with a bug, hope to be getting over it barring some weird turn. 4/5 Pics of all Ok this is what we have to work with on this grow, one looks perfect, another a bit light, one super small from a small seed, and the twin. Ahh not what we had in mind but its enough 😎 Going to have reevaluate the seed situation as using more than had planned, looks like it will take a planned 6 seeds to make a good grow. Please no more seed give-aways it really effects the quality. 4/6 Excuse my aggravation, lot going on but still... Ok have two possible failures here. Mary may be genetically faulty as well as it remains small as crap. Doubt if she makes much of anything but am more than willing to be wrong as hell but dont think so. Sally... well Sally has split personality, think we will snip the small twin it has no growth tip. Really needed four good plants dang it. Increased nuets slightly 4/7 Two feedings with Recharge just to try and get some life into these girls. Not going on the list just a try to kick start some enzymes. Mary is worrisome and I may turn Sally over to my wife she is pretty good with these odd birds. We decided to let the small thing stay dont want to cause any rotting in the medium. Re-eval later Athena and Baba doing ok Seeing some results from the Recharge Vid 4/8 Good results on the Recharge with Athena, Baba, and Sally but Mary continues to be a project. She will be getting only H2O2 and water every other feeding (once a day) to try and get her going. Its the end of my tool kit so hope it works. We will be popping another seed on 4/20, the Fast Buds 20-1 CBD under my wife's diary, HisHope. She will be doing that one entirely by her hand and she has learned a LOT. So looking to be able to sit back and watch her for a while 😎 4/9 The two large girls are doing fine. Baba is Beautiful I have seen these light leaves, Sally and Athena, on LSD-25 in the past. As long as they are growing well there is no issue. Not a good sign nor is it really bad either Mary is on her own feed, propping her up with H2O2 and begun light feeding again at every irrigation. No idea what to do next, did not respond to recharge, and kangaroots did not seem to help so I am down to H2O2 4/10 Sally's Twin has a growth tip so we will have to expect to deal with it as things grow. Mary is responding so the little project may make it after all. Three bigger girls looking good! 4/11 The bigger girls are into their first growth spurt so everyone got a big dose of FishSh!T to get this party started. Athena and Baba go back and forth as largest, think Athena may take that race we will see. I am going to have to drop Mary from the grow, she is alive and improving but lets be honest... little if any production and focus needs to stay on the healthy plants. Letting my wife see what she can do, leave her as a project.

Really surprised with how everyone turned out! Everyone is starting to flower but Kayla definitely got the lead in terms of pistils and bud sites. These ladies still need to be LST every other day. Looking forward to an early harvest!

I raised her in a skull, but most of her life was spent in neglect. I left her outside in burning heat, then in sudden cold, dragged her indoors, then abandoned her again. She suffered thirst, darkness, and the bite of spidermites that stripped her leaves — though strangely, they spared the flowers, as if something in her bloom commanded a grim respect. When her time came, I did not cut her. Growing is usually a preparation for harvest — you nurture only to take, always before death arrives on its own. I chose the opposite. I carried her down into the cellar for her final weeks, set her skull in the stone-lit dark, and simply let her decline. There she stood, a crown of fading flowers above hollow bone, turning slowly from bloom to ruin. I left her to wither not by accident, but as proof. To show that a grow without harvest becomes its own message: that life, denied the cut, meets death as it is, unshaped, unclaimed. And in that cellar, in her vessel of bone, she embodied what I wanted to see — beauty not ended by hand, but surrendered to shadow.

Great week. Plants growing nicely. Healthy leaves nice color. Main stem is quite thick, LST was a bit more difficult with main stem. So far so good.

Decided to bring the ladies outdoors to finish them off. I have a small 5x5 pop-up greenhouse that will keep them safe from the extreme weather. The nights are finally warm enough and we have some great sunshine coming in the next week. There are only about 4 weeks left for them so there should be lots of light for them to finish and produce, even in northern Ontario. They have started to flower and have really enjoyed being outdoors. We have had some very cloudy and rainy days for the past week, perfect weather to get them hardened off to the Sun. I’ve been watering every 4 days or so, keeping the PPM average for now until I see they are getting hungrier/thirstier. Can’t wait for the good part! Happy growing 🇨🇦❤️🌱😎💨
