✨Preflower beginning. ✌️🎃Thank you for checking my cultivation.

Welcome to the Week 9 update for the Sweet Seeds Cream Mandarine XL Auto’s. This was an eventful week of the grow as I finally gave up on the first two plants suffering with the majority of the powdery mildew. Instead of wiping a single spot off of a leaf it had progressed to wiping multiple spots off of the majority of leaves. It was becoming super time consuming just trying to keep up with not further contaminating the tent. So after fighting the good fight but realizing it was now a losing battle- I decided to harvest the two smallest plants. They were pulled from the tent right at the end of Week 9 and placed in my garage for 3-5 days before they were actually chopped and trimmed in Week 10. My garage is not heated and the temperatures have been around 0-5 degrees celsius so both plants had some time to “chill out" before harvest. Not only did they reek stronger than ever but also seemed to produce additional resin after being exposed to the cold for a few days. I chose not to weigh the wet trimmed bud as it hasn’t amounted to much but after drying for 7-10 days it’s working out to be approximately 1 mason jar of nuggets per plant. I will provide final weights and better pictures of the bud in my final harvest update. Nothing much has changed for the remaining two plants except for drinking a little less water and the humidity has slowly been decreasing as Canada moves into winter. Until next time- stay safe, happy and high! 🇨🇦

These are doing pretty damn good for the most part. I figured out with the green buzz the only thing in bloom that raises ppm is the base bloom and the more PK which is good to know. Also been using lower ppm for the autos and they seem healthier than usual. These pics and the video were taken on Day 36.

Saludos, por aquí mis hijas, que opinan amigo? Estoy muy deseoso de cambiarlas a floración. Buenos humos

Run-off got pretty high on the plants in the main tent when I tested it this week (2300ppm) so I flushed the plants down to around 900 over a few water events with half-strength nutes (~450). I think this, plus (mainly) the plants being too close to the LED caused them to throw some foxtails - particularly the middle plant (although I still think that spindly shit is also partly due to the bag seed pheno). Noob mistake on my end and I didn't realize until it was too late. Now the light is turned down and the run-off is back in a good range. It got high because my auto-watering halos were mostly running off the pots and not sinking in - this is because I filled the pots to the brim with coco (another noob mistake). Looks like I'm hand watering until harvest :) Big Mumma in the blurple tent on the other hand is still killing it.. Apologies for having to upload videos of the microscope - too hard to hold it still and press the button for photos lol.

This strain is LEGENDARY... and continues to amaze me every week! 😍 Never have I, in 15 years of growing in/outdoor both autos/photo periods, seen a bud "squirting" droplets of resin... have you? 😳 Sorry for the shitty mobile pics but... Gnar Gnar! 😈 Feel like they are almost ready... will start flushing and the daily trichome check until harvest day! 😋

Buenas tardes familia, actualizamos la semana de las northern light xL, e de decir que es la más lenta del proyecto, aún así se ven como se forman unas buenas flores, por lo general compactas, iremos viendo por que todavía las va quedando. PH Muy controlado , a estas alturas por encima del 6,2. Ya les quitamos productos y pronto lavaremos raíces.

Plant blew up, sorry no updates, i think currently it’s under watered not sure, and it’s been awhile and i see no pre flowers, i just started a Northern lights auto as well

test

These buds were hands down the best out the whole harvest all the buds from the top to the bottom were fully developed without popcorn nugs with amazing purple hues while also being quite dense very impressed !!!!

Heavy feeder the 3 gallon pot proved regretful hurt her yield and caused her to run out of nuets first so on me Otherwise strong genetics and she did recover well Keep em fed this one 143 grams dry

Anche queste albicocche crescono molto bene.....sempre complimenti a fast buds e a me🤣😂💪.sono robuste e anche lei con tanti punti dove fiorire....

Germination 07/09/2022 Hi to all the old and new growers out there. Spring has barely started but I'm so AMPED to start again. My first grow attempt was a disaster. I started to early for the season. I wasted some good seeds and those Blasted 🐌 🐌 snails messed up everything. Got up started again and took it as a learning curve. I had 1 seed left from the previous attempt and this had to be the golden ticket. The first important thing I learned was getting to the correct pH. Used a 1 liter jug not knowing that the pH down was very concentrated substance. Added 1ml of pH down to tap water with a base of 8.5+ pH and brought it down all the way to less than 4.5 pH. I probably tried like 5 times and realized that a single drop made a difference of about 2 pH. I got the feel of it and had to source a better water supply. I had the option of using tap water but didn't have the time to do a 24 hour airstone run ever time I wanted to water the plants. The local water supply shop was a better option. I got a consistent 6 pH and the price was decent. The Snail 🐌 Problem... I have a plan for those F**kers. We have 2 very nice hydroponic shops in my city.

Week 2 I finally made it to get a QB panel led. So i hope these lights help me to grow more efficiently Seedling number 1 is growing faster than number 2 but both seem to be healthy. I water two times a week with 2Lts each plus Hesi's root complex and Calmag

Well that's it folks, the time has come where we get to see the fruits of our labour and get ready to start another adventure. The girls were great just cruising through their last 5 days since update. They were harvested on day 82 from planting seed in soil. Solid buds ranging from golf ball to baseball size, lots of hues of blue and purple. Absolutely packed with trichomes and dense as ever. Cleanup was easy, just hung upside down and stripped the fan leaves, then broke into large sections to hang in the old 4x4. Dr Greenthumb prescribed 58-60% RH and lots of air movement for the next two weeks and they'll be ready to sample before curing for a month. Ended up with 472g dried trimmed bud and 120g of trim. Well the dry is all done and the buds are looking, smelling, and tasting amazing! Can't imagine how much better they will be after a few weeks of curing. Golf ball size and larger buds, super dense and solid when squeezed very little to no compression. Very Crystal packed and tons of red hairs. During trimming buds maintained shape and had very little size loss. Taste is great, nice sweet and fruity with an undertone of earthy blueberries. Great buzz, nice and relaxed body with a clear but mellow mind. Easy way to waste a day away chillin while melting away the after work muscle pains and anxieties. I do love blueberry strains, and this one is no exception.
