Harvest Report: The Swift Journey of Blackberry Auto
Greetings, fellow cultivators! The moment we've all been eagerly awaiting has arrived – the harvest of my Blackberry Auto. This beauty has moved through her life cycle with astonishing speed and grace. Let's take a moment to reflect on her incredible journey from seed to harvest and celebrate the fruits of our labor.
Seed to Sprout: It feels like just yesterday when I planted the tiny seed of Blackberry Auto. Nestled in a Root Riot cube, she sprouted with vigor, her first delicate leaves reaching for the light. The conditions were perfect, with temperatures at a steady 28°C and relative humidity at 95%, creating an ideal environment for her early growth.
Transplanting and Early Growth: As she transitioned to a small pot filled with rich soil and Mycor Mix, Blackberry Auto continued to thrive. The Mycor Mix, with its blend of various mycorrhizae species, worked wonders in enlarging her root system and facilitating nutrient uptake. Her early growth was nothing short of spectacular, setting the stage for the robust plant she would become.
Rapid Vegetative Phase: Blackberry Auto quickly outgrew her initial pot and was soon transplanted into her final home – a 16L AutoPot. This setup allowed her to drink as she pleased, supported by the precise hydration of the AutoPot Aquavalve. With a foundation of Aptus All-in-One Pellets and Mycor Mix Soil, she had everything she needed for explosive growth. Her leaves grew enormous and lush, and her branches spread wide with gentle low-stress training.
Swift Flowering and Stunning Development: Entering the flowering phase, Blackberry Auto didn't slow down. Her buds formed quickly, each one a masterpiece of nature. The colors were a sight to behold – deep purples, vibrant magentas, and hints of dark blue. The aromatic symphony filled the grow room, a testament to her potent genetics and the meticulous care provided.
Natural Brilliance and Final Weeks: Observing her rapid progress, I ceased all feedings to let Blackberry Auto showcase her natural brilliance. Her final weeks were marked by a dazzling display of colors and an incredible pace of bud development. Each day brought new marvels, as her buds swelled and her trichomes sparkled like a constellation.
A Heartfelt Reflection: From the moment she sprouted to her final days of flowering, Blackberry Auto has been a true wonder. Her speed and beauty have exceeded all expectations, and it's hard to believe how quickly she reached this point. This journey has been a testament to the magic of cultivation and the resilience of a well-bred strain.
Acknowledgments and Gratitude: As we celebrate this harvest, I extend my deepest gratitude to @fastbuds_official for creating such a remarkable strain. To Aptus Holland, my main sponsor, your support has been invaluable in nurturing this beauty. A special thank you to Grow Diaries for providing a platform to share this journey, and to the community for your shared passion and camaraderie. 🌱💚
As we move forward, I eagerly anticipate the trim and smoke reports, where we'll dive into the sensory delights of Blackberry Auto. For now, let's revel in the joy of a successful harvest and the extraordinary journey that brought us here.

So she is putting enough size to start training in the next few days. Things are going well so far no deficiencies yet. Preflowers are showing and now that she is ready she is showing sex. Never trying something tiny like this I am happy that there have been no issues so far. Let’s see what happens in the next week. I know water is going to start being an issue as I am watering 2-3 times daily now. Until next week, may your buds be frosty and have a happy thanksgiving.

Well not really much too update everything is still going well i guess, purple queen is really slow with starting to set flower mode is that normal with this strain? Or I’m i just not patient enough 😅 sticky beast is going really well also going strong into week 5! My best one most be the runtz #1 that is in week 6 the other one is chasing it but like I said already i broke the main root (not all the way) while lsting her. I put some ducktape on her but i think she will take a little longer then the number 1

A great week. Included a diagram so you can better tell which plant is which. I will be changing that up come flower to better fit the plants so I'll label them later as well.
Gonna flip to flower I believe to try and save space. Gonna be tight but wasn't planning that this time.
I got some BT var israelensis or something close to that for the fungus gnats thanks to @resimax and will test that.
Lastly, you might catch a glance at the upcoming diary...

Hello Diary,
I'm starting a new round on my little Farm, the 18th since I started growing these beautiful plants.
There are again three different Autoflowering strains at the Farm: Cherry Pie Auto, Purple Lemonade Auto and one of the legendary strains White Widow Auto.
This journal will be dedicated to the Cherry Pie Automatic.
To begin with, I will write a few words about Cherry Pie Auto itself.
Cherry Pie Auto has an impressive family tree. As the autoflowering version of the terpene-packed Cherry Pie, this strain has close links to both Granddaddy Purple and Durban Poison.
These ancestors occupy opposite ends of the indica-sativa spectrum, meaning Cherry Pie Auto features a balanced genetic profile.
The zingy and cerebral qualities of Durban Poison—a pure South African sativa—and the fruity terpenes of Granddaddy Purple both shine through in their fast-growing successor.
Cherry Pie Auto shares many of the effects and flavors of the original cultivar.
Her moderate THC content of 19% drives a mentally uplifting yet physically relaxing experience.
Alongside her pleasant effects, this cultivar also serves up complex flavors of blueberry, fruit, and candy.
Cherry Pie Auto grows relatively large for an auto, which equates to big yields.
Indoor plants peak at 100cm and produce up to 450g/m², ready to harvest in as little as nine weeks after shoots emerge from the soil.
SET-UP ON MY LITTLE FARM:
Box - Secret Jardin DS120W 120x60x178
Lights - MIGRO ARAY 4 - 240W
Ventilation - TT Silent-M 100
Filter - Primaklima filter PK 100/125
Fan - Oscillating Koala Fan
Soil - BioBizz Light - Mix
Pot - 11L fabric pots
Seed - Royal Queen Seeds
Nutrition - RQS Organic nutrition
Let's officially start the diary.
16/07/2024
Planting plants.
This time I decided on 11 lit. fabric pots, my dear friends at RQS sent me these nice pots and it's not like this is my first time using them.
They are great to handle and prevent me from over watering the plants.
For soil, I use BioBizz's Light Mix, mixed with Easy Boost organic nutrition in the form of pellets. I put 50g of pellets on the 11 liter pot.
After that I put Seeaweed, 1g/lit and finally Mycorrhiza Mix which I put 5g/lit.
After that, I mixed the soil in the pot well and soaked it with water.
I put Seed Booster in the water, a new product from the rich range of organic nutrients from RQS.
I made a hole in the middle of a few centimeters and put a seed inside. I did the same with the other two strains and after that I put them in the grow box.
20/07/2024
In the morning I sprinkled the surface of the soil with water, not too much, and by the end of the day all three plants had sprouted.
21/07/2024
I watered the plants, I gave each approximately 1 liter of water to which I added Seed Booster again. Before that, I photographed the plants.
23/07/2024
Watering. I repeated the same procedure as two days earlier.
That's all from me for now, I'm looking forward to a new trip as always.
See you soon.

Müsste die 11 Woche sein, denkt ihr hier passiert noch was? Würde zum Wochenende hin ernten oder noch etwas warten ? Die großen Sonnensegel sehen noch so fit aus und generell noch sehr viel xhlorophyl vorhanden, lieber noch eine ganze Woche warten?
Gedüngt wird nicht mehr nur ordentlich mit Wasser gespült bis es unten raus läuft

Ya estamos a medio camino del proceso, las plantas se ven sanas y con una leve ventaja de la Red Strawberry Banana #2, la cual muestra una floración mas adelantada que la #1 como muestran los videos. Se nota un tono purpura mas oscuro en la R.S.Banana #2 y un tono mas claro en la R.S.Banana #1, la cual muestra un tallo de gran proporción quizás por un leve exceso de Nitrógeno.

Day 1 - 7 L watering with around 1000 ppm and 6.5 ph
Day 3 - 7 L watering with around 950 ppm and 6.4 ph
Day 5- 7 L watering with around 850 ppm and 6.3 ph
Day 7- 7 L watering with around 850 ppm and 6.3 ph
During this and last week plants got a few burn tips so I am starting to reduce nutrients gradually and will finish of with 1-2 weeks of R/O water.
First Peyote is getting big and is growing new sets of white hairs, Both Cheeses is much smaller and less frosty while Second Peyote is having lots of orange hairs and by the looks of it is only a few weeks away.
Still Hoping to harvest all at the same time and will try to time the harvest in that timeframe so all plants are ready. So around 3-4 more weeks seems to be the case.

Esta es una genética de un olor muy fuerte y pesado se siente intenso desde la vegetación , es una variedad muy resinosa con unos colores morados hermosos , probando las flores cuando terminó el secado y ahora curando las flores se siente un sabor terroso , al principio no me gusto ya que nunca había probado este , pero después al seguir fumando se siente un sabor final muy agradable.
Esta genética se conservará para futuros cruces y experimentar algo nuevo.
muy conforme con la producción de cada clon

The first week of vegetation is now behind us and the 1 liter pots are already well rooted. They will now be repotted in their final pots in the 2nd week.
Everything is still going according to plan and now all the plants will move into their final tent.

Hola gente, como va?
Bueno, gracias a que estoy cada una hora o dos mirando la planta, me di cuenta que una de las puntas estaba blanca pero "rara". La saque afuera para que aproveche el sol y le de mas viento, y ahi vi el hongo como se puede apreciar en el video.
Gracias a dios fue en solo esa punta, ni siquiera en la rama entera, asi que me fije hasta donde lo habia "tomado" y corte. Un amigo que estudia quimica, medicina y le gusta mucho la biologia me dijo que el Botrytis no es un hongo patogeno (o algo asi) y que con calor ya es posible matarlo, no es tan perjudicial como muchos dicen/piensan. Cuestion que para "matar" el hongo prendimos el horno a una temperatura que pudieramos meter la mano y no quemarnos, lo apagamos y en una fuente pusimos el cogollo con el hongo, y dejamos hasta que se enfrie solo. Repeti el proceso 2 veces mas (siempre calentando antes de meter el cogollo) y quedaron hechos una piedra, no cedieron en ningun momento cosa que a pesar de perder una cabeza, me puse contento por no ceder en tamaño.
Cuestion que una parte se salvo sin hongo, y no tuvimos otro remedio que fumarla jajaja
Realmente es una locura muy intensa, como que te deja con la cabeza la parte frontal (atras de la frente) como vibrando, te deja muy loco, pero si te pones a hablar, no te perdes, enganchas todos los temas que quieras, todo esto sin secar bien y sin curar!
Conclusion: Para el proximo cultivo voy a agregar otro ventilador, uno para extraccion y otro para intraccion asi no me vuelve a aparecer el hongo.
Saludos!!
