Greetings, fellow cultivators! Week 10 marks the zenith of our incredible journey with the Big Cheese Auto, and it's like witnessing a grand finale in a botanical symphony. A heartfelt salute to Seeds Mafia for the genetics that have led us to this captivating moment.
Our green queen is gracefully fading into the final chapters of her life, akin to the changing seasons. The Autopot system, our faithful companion, has been the guardian throughout this journey, ensuring a nutrient dance that sculpted the masterpiece before us. It's like the closing act of a green odyssey.
As we approach the grand finale, all additional feedings have come to a serene end. Our Big Cheese Auto is now sipping pure water, a gentle transition as she readies herself for the final curtain call. It's like allowing the plant to gracefully bow out, showcasing the culmination of her life's work.
The transformation is mesmerizing! The colors are shifting like the changing leaves of autumn, a poetic reflection of the plant's life cycle. It's like witnessing nature's artwork unfold, with hues of green, purple, and amber blending seamlessly. Each leaf tells a story, a testament to the plant's resilience and the seasons it has weathered.
The trichomes are now a sparkling crown, each one a testament to the plant's potency. Their production, color, and shape are in perfect harmony, signaling the imminent harvest. It's like a field of glistening diamonds, a visual ode to the journey we've embarked upon.
As a prelude to the final act, all feedings have ceased. Our Big Cheese Auto now drinks pure water, allowing her to express her true essence in these concluding moments. It's like letting her compose the last notes of her botanical symphony.
A profound thank you to Seeds Mafia for entrusting us with genetics that have flourished into this spectacular finale. Aptus Holland, your nutrients have been the invisible hand shaping this journey. Grow Diaries and the community, your support has been the heartbeat of this horticultural tale.
As we stand at the threshold of Week 10, the sense of accomplishment is profound. Our Big Cheese Auto, though reaching the end, leaves behind a legacy in vibrant colors and trichome-laden brilliance. It has been an honor to witness and share this remarkable journey with you all.
Let's continue to cultivate greatness together but first lets see how this one ends !

Not much to be said for this lady. Her calmag issue seems to be still present and I'm suspecting lockout. She's on pHd water and calmag for now. Her aroma is amazing. So minty but cheesy at the same time. Amazing. She is fattening up good regardless of any issues. Not long to go for this girl!

Well some learning curves on this one. My first auto, put in too small of a pot. So I had a bonsai plant. Organic fertilizer and coast of main platinum make this plant a breeze. The Humboldt seed company product is top notch. Super resistant when growing in 94°-100° while
Budding for a few weeks. Managed to get bud rot in one place but removed and peroxided the area. I hope I have another seed because I would grow this strain again. Super resistant to humidity of New England.

5/25:
It rained again today for most of the day, but I managed to get back out there and take some photos after it let up. I also shot a short video early in the a.m while it was sprinkling and the lights were on...
I heard that this strain flowers really fast, but I really don't think she can finish before June 21 (the summer solstice). The other two seedlings (FFT#6 and FFT#7) are in the same boat. The 5 clones outdoors might be able to finish before they get the signal to reveg. I may end up bringing as many of them as I can fit into my closet to finish and starting another batch of beans to grow outdoors this summer...
5/26 - 5/31:
I did some training on her early in the week between rain showers, and foliar fed with Microlife maximum bloom formula. She's more than 36" across now...
She was looking a little N deficient, so I assume the dry amendments have petered out. I top-fed her with another couple tablespoons of cavern culture and on the 31st, they were dry enough to feed them. I gave them big bloom, tiger bloom, grow big, beastie bloomz, silica, endoboost, signal, humic acid, liquid kelp/fish emulsion, and liquid molasses.
It just feels so strange that I'll be harvesting outdoor photos in June!?!
That's it for week 8-

This is day 61 and everything is still on track. I’m really impressed with the swell of the buds the last week n half the bestie bloomz really seemed to do the trick. Switched to cha Ching this weekend. Lots of pistols browning and curling but buds keep shooting new ones and thickening up daily. All the trichs are still really clear so still a few weeks out I’d say. But keeping a close eye on them.
Not really doing anymore lst or defoliation at this point I am going to have to tie up the OG kush tops tho the buds are just getting to heavy 😊😊.
The smells are off the chart! The bubblegum smells so sweet and fruity the og has that nice bitter gas smell and the jack here smells well kinda like licorice it’s an interesting but good smell! Can wait to finish these girls off! Thanks anyone for stopping by!

This week the plant almost doubled in size, i must add that we had very nice weather and stable temperatures, shes getting sunlight from around 7AM to around 15PM-16PM and after that just daylight, i dont think i can harvest before the competition ends so bad luck, but its still great to grow this strain, cant wait to see her full of buds, hopefully they get fatter than my last balcony grow, but of course i had some bad weather with my last balcony grows also this one is in a much bigger pot which i really notice 👌😀

9 weeks from sprout. Week 3 in flower.
Everything's going smooth.. i think. Had degrees up mid 90s for a couple days and plugged in the ac. My bedroom is cold as fuck now which has my closet ranging from 77 at night to 81 during the day. I really don't want any colder than that. They are starting to smell jus a little more these past three days. At first i didn't smell them unless i touched em for the most part.
Ppms staying between 2000 and 2300...
Playing the damn waiting game.
I got some free time tomorrow. Maybe ill take some of them close up glam-style shots of some buds starting to form.

3 Plants. 3 citrusy phenos!
#1 : First to sprout rapid rooter. TASTE: Pure Lemon front end into hashy cakey afghani. refer to this as the "lemon hashcake" phenom very dense, beautiful nug structure. Yielded 24.5 dry grams of primo smoke. Uplifting more cerebral sativa high with some punch in body as well. happy stress reliever for sure! has some "gassy" or fuel notes to it but very subtle
#2 Tangerine pheno: I orginally thought sour 76 was sour diesel x 76 Afghan til i read hso marks post on uk420 forums saying its cali sour d x 76 afghan. cali sour d is cali orange x sour d x mexican sativa. and it shows in this pheno which smell and taste pretty similar to tangie my friend grows which is cali orange x skunk 1 (mexican sativa x Colombian sativa x afghan indica) pretty similar genetics roots! Smell: Sweet tangerine 🍊
Taste: Just like tangerines 🍊
Medical Effects: Hybrid feeling effects felt both in body and mind. Stimulating mentally, relaxing in the body. Mild pain relief generally with amazing relief improving feeling in joints (reduced swelling or irritation in otherwise aching areas, loosened tension at joints)
Notes: After breaking up or grinding the sweet tangerine open jar/bud smells turns more sour tangerine with very subtle gas aroma. This one is scary strong! I am an all day regular smoker of the most potent buds I can find, and I never make it thru 1 bowl of this without long breaks after each hit. Starts off strong and creeps to EXTREME psychoactivity. Not for the faint of heart this one might not be best for "new smokers" 😎🔥🔥🔥 yielded 26.1 grams if id have taken clones this woulda been the keeper of the batch, but I got more to check out in future run :) and I got a cloner and veg chamber to start keepin the keepers now I know i like the strain!
#3 Lime Fuel pheno: Smell: Lime🍈 and gas ⛽
Taste: lime
Medical Effects: Cerebral uplift. Creeper. thought it was weakest on initial smoke but 10 minutes in it end up being strongest high of all 3. super wicked sativa, buzzy uplifting all similar to Cinderella 99 or strong jack herers this has almost a "scary high" first few times but once you get used to it or microdose, it is a super fun creative medicine. Helps my arthritis pains and gives me the clean up the house kind of high
Notes: Foxtailed, lowest yield of 3 sour 76's likely because its place directly under the light (perhaps didnt like too intense direct light) but is the most potent of the 3 as well. yielded 22.5 grams of dry

This week the plants got very bushy and wide. Stopped using Root Juice and Used Recharge microbes for the first time one day out of the week. LST also began this week. I noticed separate issues on two of the plants on their 21st day; the girl on the right showed some yellow color in some of the tips of the new growth at the top of the plant, while the girl in the middle had low hanging leaf tips which look burned / discolored. I think I might be over-watering. I'll confirm all of their soil is completely dry with my a moisture meter before watering next time.

2nd transplant for Blue Dream, roots growing fast, might use her for a multiple strain clone mom, her sativa like root system I think would be ideal for this project.
Reppoting GSC in am and will post some pics these are before Reppoting,

Lampe 80% power und nur noch 20cm platz, muss wohl nachbinden…
Die krumbles haben einen Weg, sieht mir nach generellem Defizit aus aber vor allem wenig CalMag, oder war schon zu viel und ein lockout könnte durch Zugabe von CalMag provoziert werden. Wir werden sehen. Blätter sehen mies aus Blüten wachsen super, Harzproduktion geht weiter, Geruch wird immer stärker. Mycrene und Limonene liegen in der Luft;). Die Zake stinken extrem nach rohrzucker-hopfen leicht bitter, die krumbles sind beide sehr süs die b2 hat einen mehr als intensiven citrus Duft. Die Zake sind alle sehr unterschiedlich, nur der Geruch ähnelt. Z1 110cm , z2 95cm z3 85cm. Musste sie unterfüttern. Buds an jeglichen wichstyp angepasst. Hatte Glück 3 phänos zu treffen sativa lastig, ausgeglichen, indica lastig. Hoffe die Damen haben genau so viel Spaß wie ich :D

2nd week of flowering:
GH Cheese is growing steadily
Increased Terra Bloom from 1ml to 3ml per liter.
Same as for exodus I switched the position in the tent mostly to observe how the air circulation affects the growth.

esta semana seguimos doblando y podando alguna que otra ramita . Al parecer la nº1 ,la Triploide (tres ramas mismo nudo), que pasó a ser diploide (dos ramas mismo nudo) después de podar el primer apical parece ser que ha vuelto a Triploide y esto podria dificultar las otras dos ramas que van más avanzadas por lo que me decidí por cortar y así que siga diploide.
A los 40 dias volví a podar los segundos nudos de cada rama dejándolas ahora si listas para pasar a floración en un par o tres de dias. más un agarre de las ramas a las macetas y así ir deshaciéndome de los dobladores , estos estan quedando pequeños.
A los 41 dias me dió por cambiar de posición la nº2 y ponerla en el lugar de la nº1, la triploide.
La nº2 está creciendo algo más vigorosa que las otras dos y la nº1 va por el camino de quedarse algo más enana. La nº3 seria un intermedio.
