Divine Seeds Auto V.2 Contest 👉Sponsored Grow👈 Auto Black Opium W8F3 7/20-26 My Black Opium shows signs of distress with pale green/yellow leaves and spots. The damage, while less severe than Big Demon’s nutrient issues, continues to spread. Last week I asked a question to what was happening to my Divine Girls. Many indicated the soil was now depleted as it is now in flower with higher PK (phosphorus and potassium) demands. I immediately sprayed with banana juice 2x per day for 3 days while continuing to dry the soil with a fan. Leaves continue to show more spots in the leaves. Another responder indicated I overwatered creating a lock out. How could this happen? I followed the same watering schedule every 2 or 3 days. The only change in this grow is adding the super soil to the base. Further research on living soils indicates that living soils like super soil, ancient soil and other nutrient dense mediums need less frequent waterings as the organic matter holds moisture while still allowing proper drainage. Lesson learned With living soils water once per week and monitor for additional water needs. She will not produce as well as one would expect due to my negligence. I discovered that super soil naturally balances PH of water, eliminating the need for manual adjustments. This simplifies the growing process and ensures healthier plants. Yes, I like the water only with super soil. As I learn more about organic growing hopefully, I will learn to identify what problems are before they get unmanageable. Autos have a shorter lifecycle and are less forgiving of mistakes. In the future, I might try a photo run where I can train High-stress-Training (HST) techniques and have more flexibility to correct errors. Thank you all for your continued support and encouragement. Your likes and comments motivate me to keep sharing my journey. Let’s continue to learn to grow together! Stay green, growers love 💚🌿 💫Natrona💫

8/29 Knowing I was going to have to yo to the hospital er again this morning with my wife I got up early and watered. We are supposed to get an inch of rain tomorrow but the bags were totally light. If I was going to be around I might've held off watering. Instead I watered everything one gallon and figured the rain will make up for the other 10 percent hopfully that will do it. 8/30 Rained overnight. Plants were soaked. Flowers are swelling. I defoliated a shit ton of yellow leaves the other day. I still don't think I have anything fungal but I'm keeping an eye u e out and am considering doing an application of plant doctor. We are suppised to get an inch of rain tonight and tomorrow I guess. My biddy said i shouod cover my plants because next week is going to be "great growing weather" but with the rain and then the sun it could be a recipe for disaster since I have some large flowers. I got my father's leaf blower running but it was leaking gas. Brought it to the repair shop and a buddy let me borrow his for thus storm. I and hit the plants with it this morning. It is super strong though. I need to be careful not to blow it right out of the bag!!! Or break branches. Of course after u left it started raining lightly. A nice rain that plants like but it's stopped. I'm wondering if I should go over and blast them again to keep them dry but I know it's going to rain off and on and it'd going to rain tonight. I'll check the weather and decide from there. So far things are going good. Still have some yellowing leaves and a few normal pests but that is to be expected. UPDATE: Stopped raining so I went over and shook off the plants then put the leaf blower to them. I made sure to get the interiors before I went and had shook things again by hand. Storage us low bur i took a video. Cant upload toll tomorrow. Buds are growing at an insane rate but im losing some fan leaves that just yellow and die. Im sure its senescence but its still wortisome. We are supposed to have a real good week of growing weather coming so I hope that doesn't change. I'll update tomorrow. That leafblower works awesome though. 8/31 Went over to an extremely sunny windy morning. I didn't even need to shake plants or use the leaf blower since I did it after it Rained last night. I'm worried the wind night dry my bags out today so I'll be sure to keep an eye on them. I defoliated a shit ton of leaves but apparently it's just senescence. I need to check the last time I fed. Trich development is going good. The smell was incredible this morning! Each strain has its own unique smell to it. We are supposed to have a real good week for growing so I'm looking forward to it. May do a preventative plant doctor app but I think it will be alright. I'll keep this updated. UPDATE: Went over around one and plants were bone dry. The wind was RIDICULOUS! I added a few individual stakes and tied a couple loose branches. I got my tarp out and considered covering the cagecto protect from the wind. However I didn't have time to sanitize if and they had already been through it all night and day alwuth no breakages. Plants are strong and supported well. At least I hope. Plus the tarp would block the rest of the direct sun the plants are getting right now. The wind looked like it dud its worst and the trellis and supports held. I did add extra supports higher up the plant to prevent breakages. Found a moth larvae (yellow) and squished him. Also found some aphids but a few lady bugs and three lady bugs larvae so I think I'll be OK. I am really excited for this year. Flowers are really exploding! FORGOT TO PUT THE MOST IMPORTANT THING. WATERED EVERYTHING TWO GALLONS EXCEPT THE 10. WHICH GOT ONE. 9/1 Forgot my phone on the daY I really needed it. It rained last night. The wind was the strongest i've seen in years. I would've tarped the cage but i couldn't find any of the bungee cords or zip ties. Probably good I didn't. No breaks. One plant had dark brown splotches ALL over the leaves! I picked them all off and took pictures and will consult my commercial buddy. I researched and asked a question on here. If it's septoria or something that could ruin my gorgeous garden I'd rather just junk the plant. It's big but it's the furthest behind flowering and I would not be heart broken if I had to get rid of that for the others. This week is supposed to be the best week we've had all summer so I'm expecting major growth. I'll update after conferring with other growers and making a decision. Looking online it seems like it could just be lack of nutes with the co dictionary we've been having. It IS time to feed and I haven't been feeding much. We'll see what he says. UPDATE: AFTER RESEARCH AND CONSULTING WITH OTHER CONMERCIAL GROWERS I BELIEVE THAT THIS IS A NUTRIENT DEFICIENCY. I READ THAT RAPID TEMP FLUCTUATIONS AND HIGH WINDS CAN EFFECT THINGS LIKE THIS. IT DOES NOT APPEAR TO BE SEPTORIA (WHICH I'M EXPERIENCED WITH). I WAS THINKING ABOUT DOING AN APPLICATION OF PLANT DOCTOR BUT SINCE IT WAS SO FEW DAYS DURING THESE CONDITIONS IM GOING TO WAIT AND MONITOR THE PLANT. I DEFOLIATED ANY LEAF THAT WAS SUSPECT. FOUND AND KILLED A BUD WORM. I THINK THEY ARE STILL DIEING FROM THE BT. IT WAS LIKE STRETCHING UP FROM THE TOG OF A BIG NUG LIKE, "HERE I AM COME OUT ME OUT OF MY AGONY." ALSO FOUND LADY BUGS AND BEETLES AND THEIR LARVAE. IVE SEEN TGE VERY LOWER SECONDARY BRANCHES GET STRIPPED ON A COUPLE PLANTS BUT THATS WHY I LEFT THEM THERE. IF THEIR ARE EARWIGS THEY CAN HAVECTHE SHIT THAT I WAS GOING TO LOLLIPOP ANYWAY BECAUSE THATS WHAT THEY USUALLY GO FOR. THEY ARE DEFINATELY STRAIB DEPENDANT TOO. THEY LOVE ANYTHING BLUEBERRY BUT DONT TOUCH THE REST. MAYBE THERE IS JUST A COUPLE IN "THAT BAG". ILL HAVE TO GO AT NIGHT AND CHECK. IM EXCITED. MY FLOWERS ARE EXPLODING IN SIZE AND TRICHOME PRODUCTION. SEEIMG THAT I THINK THIS IS A NUTRIENT ISSUE AND MY FEEDING DAY WAS TODAY I FED EVERYTHING 1.75 PINTS OF NUTRIENT MIX TO EVERYTHING BUT THE 10 GALLON WHICH GOT LIKE 3/4 OF THE POWERADE BOTTLE. PLANTS SEEM HAPPY AFTER I FEED SO MAYBE I SHOULD UP THE FEEDING SCHEDULE. SINCE THE SOIL WAS ALREADY MOIST AND IT RAINED YESTERDAY I FED WITHOUT WATERING. HOPFULLY THAT WILL BE OKAY. I'VE DONE IT BEFORE. Went back over at six and WOW! After this nice sunny day buds have swollen. Plants seemed to love the nutes. I think the nutes in my soil are fairly depleted so I just needed to adjust my feeding schedule. I didn't notice anymore calcium deficiency looking spots and I had defoliated a lot of leaves. Super excited moving forward. Pistols are changing color on one 10th p phenome and retracting into buds. This is is the fun time. As long as I can avoid the rot. 9/2 Says it didn't rain last night but my plants are dripping wet. If course the leafblower kept dying so I had to shake everything by hand. Hope that's good enough. Gonna be real sunny. Bags still had some heft to them. I'll check them later. Found a few leaves with what looks like the calcium deficiency on the sane plant and I just removed them. I really don't think it's anything to worry about. I'll update later. UPDATE: Went back around 10 and everything looked good and was dry. Brought the leaf blower to be fixed. Should have it by the end of the day. Found and killed another pillar and some ants. Took a picture of a lady bug/beetle. This sunshine is making my buds explode!! I was thinking about checking again tonight but I think I can wait and water tomorrow. Bags are still fairly heavy. I did take another couple leaves off the plant that lopks like it might have a deficiency or something. The stalks are bigger than the bottom of a baseball bat. A couple almost like the fat end. Some 9f the best plants I've grown. I also took three short videos of a plant of each strain. Maybe if it's short it will upload quicker. Happy growing! UPDATE: I was back and forth today. I did some pruning and defoliation and then I noticed that my canary was light as hell. I waited until night and went back and had a couple starting to droop so i watered everything 2 gallons except the 10 and tub got 1. Everytime I see them it seems like they are bigger 9/3 Used the leaf blower this morning to get the dew off the buds. I shook them by hand before that. I'm noticing like a little army of lady bug larvae so any aphids I have are not going to be a problem. I have adults as well but is the babies that eat 10x what the adults do. I'm hoping they'll wipe put any bud worms. The weather is great this week all sunny. Making the buds explode in size and increasing terp production. This is the strongest smelling cannabis I've grown. Each strain. Has its own unique "funk" to it. Purple punch is really sweet and floral smelling. 10th planet is more gassy. I need to get some yellow sticky traps. I saw a couple fungus gnats on my canary. A late blooming blueberrycheese. It's the one that dries out the fastest but is more sativa leaning and drinks TONS of water. I have two that are that phenome. Losing yellow leaves but exploding with flowers. Noticed a couple more leaves with that calcium deficiency looking leaf. I just defoliated it. I'm really happy where I'm at right now. 9/4 Plants were covered in water this morning and the leaf blower wouldn't start. I shook everything off by hand. Each strain hasits own STRONG unique scent. One tenth planet phenome smells like bubble gum. I think I've got like two weeks and some of the flowers on ONE plant should be done. I'm planning to take the top half and then letting the bottom mature longer of its not whete I want it to be. The weather has been gorgeous. Sunny today. I'll need to water tonight I'm sure. UPDATE: WENT OVER AT 3PM AND PLANTS WERE DRY. WATERED EVERYTHING 2 GALLONS BIT THE 10 AND THE TUB. THEY GOT ONE. FLOWER DEVELOPMENT IS VISIBLE FROM MORNING TO NIGHT. I HAVE A TENTH PLANET THAT I BELIEVE WILL BE READY FOR HARVEST (AT LEAST THE TOPS) WITHIN A COUPLE WEEKS. PISTOLS ARE RETRACTING AND TURNING ORANGE ON THIS PHENOME AND RED ON THE OTHERS. I AM LOVING HOW THIS STRAIN LOOKS GROWING. I HAVE REAL HIGH HOPES FOR IT. I FAILED TOO MANY TIMES UPLOADING THE VIDEO AND PICTURES I TOOK SO ILL DO THAT TOMORROW. I CANT BELIEVE THE SWELKING GOING ON AND THE AROMA! THIS IS SUCH A WONDETFUL YLTIME OF YEAR. STILL FIND8NY SMALL SPOTS OF WHAT LOOKS LIKE CAL DEFICIENCY IN THAT ONE PLANT. IM STILL UNCERYAIN WHWT TO DO WITH THAT ONE.

Trichomes have turned cloudy. Looks like about 2 weeks till harvest. Time to start the flushing process. One big flush monitoring TDS and nothing but ph’d water and a smidge of Mammoth P till the end.

24/02: Colas again have become real heavy in places and have had to strap them together to prevent the stalks from falling and snapping. Over all blooming well have been on maximum dose of nutrients now for a few weeks. lots of orange hairs. water now for a week and then to harvest. the topping in this grow really paid off.

Week 3, 22-28 August 2025 22-28 Aug - Observed and let the seedling grow. This was another rather slow week in growth. But there is still plenty of time for this seedling to become a nice plant. There was an issue with a leaf getting stuck under my PH monitor that eventually had to be removed, kind of early to be cutting off leaves but it is what it is. Added expanded clay pebbles to the plant pot to help extend the root system. This week was also the first reservoir nutrient change. - 27 Aug changed nutrient solution - 27 Aug updated feeding schedule - Using reverse osmosis water with EC/TDS at 0 - Adjusting PH to 6.1 daily using GH up/down - Nutrient solution EC 1.1 at 68 degrees F - Light power at 30%, DLI 18 canopy coverage at 18hrs - Using PYPABL, Air Pump, 400GPH That is it for this week. Thanks for the look, read and stopping by.

Training and defoliation, plus i decided to transplant two bench plants that were chillin in 500ml cups incase smth goes wrong with the rest but nothing went wrong ofc. So i transplanted them into 3 galons and supercropped so at least i get somewhat even tops. Plan is to veg them 7-10 days more and we go into flowering :)

Shes really doing her thing. I have had so much fun growing this and learning, It's exactly what I hoped for in a first grow, and better yet one of my favorite classic strains. So excited for real buds to fatten up.

*** Encontrarás la traducción a Español al final de la traducción en inglés *** ----- MEDIUM & EQUIPMENT ----- Luminary: HLG 100 v2 3000 k Tent: DR60 - 0.6 x 0.6 m Intractor/Extractor: None Vent: 10W Static Pots: 3 galon textile Nutrients: B.A.C., Advanced nutrients & Atami Soil: BioBizz ----- GROWING DATES ----- Seeds planted on Soil - May the 4th (be with you), I am them father Harvest - June 21th Complete Cycle from Seed - 76 Days Light Hours complete cycle - 19 Hrs ----- NUTRIENTS USED ----- Bases & Stimulators: B.A.C. Additives: Advanced Nutrients Others: ATAMI Bloombastic Cleaning: One Week with Advanced Nutrients “Flawless Finish” ----- GROWING ----- @Techniques, there were 2 plants: A taller one that growed it’s own, she was 1.07 m tall, you can see in the videos how she looks like, itˋs an Auto Beast. A smaller one on where i applied 2 techniques, a double topping (Topping x3), and a bit defoliation as can be shown in the video, she ended up with 0.5 m tall, 4 main colas, and the most dense buds i had among my autos. @Weight: The weight dried was surprisingly equal in both plants, while the bigger plant ended up in 67 gr, the small one was 62 gr and with much more bud density and crystal concentration, anyway both plants were very dense and crystal poblated. On wet, the weights were 276 g vs 226 g the smaller, what is translated wet2dry in a 24,28% vs 27,43% for the smaller one FTW!. That difference is very well appreciated in the density of the smaller plant buds, while both are very dense/compact/strong, the smaller plant buds are really MoonRocks. @Trim: Well well well, this part was awesome, very very very little amount of trim material, i finish the trimming of the bigger plant in about 6 min and 15 for the smaller what is real awesome in both cases, and the quality of the trims was incredible too, very good to ice wash it. @ Final product: The final product is almost equal in both plants, the smallest one acquired a stronger taste and concentration of crystals than the taller one, while both tastes are strong grapefruit, when you smoke buds from the small one is like real eating a grapefruit and it leaves a residual taste to orange some seconds after exhaling it, and when you touch or tear up any of both plants, the smell is also very strong to Grapefruit. My friends were shocked by the strong taste and smell to grapefruit it has, really. Good Job Spliff Seeds!, awesome strain!, I will grow it again for sure. 💪👌👌 ***** ESPAÑOL ***** ----- GENÉTICA DUTCH AUTO (Spliff Seeds NL) ----- Dutch Auto es una genética increíble en todos los aspectos, desde la facilidad de cultivarla hasta el producto final, pasando por la resistencia, la salubridad, el tamaño de la planta y la sencillez del pelado, son todo aspectos increíbles y notables de la planta. Sin podas, toppings ni cortes masivos, la planta ha alcanzado 1,07 m con una cola principal de más de 35 cm y una producción final de 67 gr de un producto espectacular, con un sabor de esos que se te quedan grabados y por el cual pasas a reconocerla de inmediato (lo que ocurría antiguamente (1998) con la Skunk). Los cogollos son compactos, gordos, duros, pegadizos y muy olorosos. El aroma y sabor del producto final es muy cítrico, es muy reconocible el sabor fuerte a pomelo, y en el caso de la planta pequeña deja un suave sabor a naranja en boca después de exhalarlo. ----- MEDIOS Y EQUIPO ----- Luminaria: HLG 100 v2 3000 k Tienda de cultivo: DR60 - 0.6 x 0.6 m Intractor/Extractor: Ninguno Ventilador: 10W Static Tiestos: Textiles de 3 galones Nutrientes: B.A.C., Advanced nutrients & Atami Sustrato: BioBizz ----- TIEMPOS DEL CULTIVO ----- Semilla a tierra - 4 de Mayo Cosecha - 21 de Junio Ciclo completo desde semilla - 76 Días Horas de luz - 19 Hrs ciclo completo ----- NUTRIENTES USADOS ----- Bases y Estimuladores: B.A.C. Aditivos: Advanced Nutrients Otros: ATAMI Bloombastic Limpieza: Una semana con “Flawless Finish” ----- CULTIVO ----- @Técnicas, son 2 plantas: Una alta que ha crecido sin técnicas aplicadas, ha alcanzado 1,07 m de alto, en los vídeos se puede ver cómo es una Auto brutal. Una pequeña a la que le he aplicado 2 técnicas, un topping doble (3 cortes) y una ligera defoliación que se puede ver en el vídeo. Esta planta ha acabado midiendo 0,5 m, teniendo 4 colas principales y los cogollos más densos que me haya dado ninguna auto. @Peso: El peso en seco es sorprendentemente parecido en ambas plantas, mientras que la planta grande ha terminado pesando 67 gr, la pequeña ha acabado en 62 gr y con cogollos más densos y poblados de cristales que la grande, aun así, ambas plantas han dado cogollos compactos y muy poblados. En húmedo los pesos fueron 276 gr Vs 226 gr la pequeña, lo que es una diferencia de húmedo a seco de 24,28% Vs 27,43% la pequeña. Esta diferencia es bien notable en la densidad de los cogollos de la planta pequeña que son como rocas lunares. @Pelado: Bueno bueno bueno, esta parte ha sido increíble, muy muy poca cantidad de restos de corte, acabé el pelado de la grande en unos 6 minutos y unos 15 para la pequeña lo que es increíble en ambos casos. Me he quedado sorprendido por la poca cantidad de material a pelar y la calidad de la misma, excelente para hacer bubble hash. @ Producto final: El producto final es casi igual en ambas plantas, la pequeña ha adquirido un sabor más fuerte y una concentración de cristales superior a la planta grande, mientras que ambas saben fuertemente a pomelo, cuando fumas de la pequeña, es como estar metiéndote un pomelo en la boca además de que deja un ligero sabor a naranja después de exhalarla. A la hora de tocarla o desmenuzar cualquiera de ellas el resultado es igualmente un fuerte aroma a pomelo. Mis amigos fumadores se quedaron realmente impresionados del fuerte sabor cítrico a pomelo que tiene, en serio, es increíble. Muy buen trabajo Spliff Seeds, Dutch Auto es una genética increíble, la volveré a plantar seguro!!! 💪👌👌
