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. Genetics Blackberry Auto @Fast_Buds Food - @aptusholland @aptus_world As always thank you all for stopping by, for the love and for it all , this journey of mine wold just not be the same without you guys, the love and support is very much appreciated and i fell honored and blessed with you all in my life

Weekly update. Sorry it was a late update this week I was out of town (Bizcon2024). Wow have they grown, I'd say doubling in size. I've upped the watering to 1000ml daily, this week I'll do a major defoliation and lollipoping. All in all Happy Growing

1217 6:43 AM I plan on doing a very tasteless Montell Show where we discuss the tragic rise and fall and eventual autoerotic asphyxiation death of Jar Jar Binks. OR OR.....LOOK AT MEESA'S David Carradine IMPRESSION!!!!.... OR.....MEESA HAS A NEW SENSATION... Asfixia autoerótica..THE INXS STORY!!!!! I couldn’t think of anything more offensive. And that picture I took was fucking great. It’s gonna piss a lot of people off it’s gonna go oh my God this is terrible and I really hope to go for that whole thing that’s my vibe right now.This is a pre-diary set up takes me forever. I still have to order the seeds, but it only takes a few days to get here and they might release another celebrity seed so I’m gonna wait a couple of days but then I’ll get them ordered.😂😈😈 12/17 7:35AM ALL SET WE HAVE MONTEL AND ICE-T ON SET SOON!!! Grok and I invented some Amino Acid priming for seeds. Will be doing Amino and Purpinator experiments. PROLINE and Phenylalanine for PRE-reinforcing stress resistance and the pathways for extremely good coloring and hopefully resiliency !!!!! MANY PEOPLE LIKE ME DONT HAVE THE BUILDING BLOCKS FROM NOT BEING ABLE TO TAKE IN CERTAIN NUTRIENTS JUST LIKE PLANTS AND I DISCOVERED AMINO ACIDS LIKE GLUTAMINE CAN RE-BUILD YOUR INTESTINES. PHE, SETRIA GLUTATHIONE TMG POWDER ALL HELP BUILD UP CELL WALLS IN ME...JUST LIKE IN THE PLANTS.... GROWING WEED HAS OPENED THE DOOR TO HEALTH AND HEALING...AND IM A PRETTY GOOD GROW SHOW TOO!!!! 12/17 12:41PM I JUST FOUND OUT RIGHT NOW FROM GROK THAT JIM BELUSHI HAS A FARM.....AND IS HUGE IN TO THIS BUSINESS.......HOW DID I NOT KNOW THAT UNTIL TODAY...LIKE RIGHT NOW?????!!! 1:26PM. AND THEY HAVE STICKERS & MAGNETS!!!!!!...GREATEST DAY OF MY LIFE!!!!!!👍 12/17 1:48PM BLUES BROTHERS BELUSHI HOLOGRAM STICKERS AND MAGNET ON THE WAY!!!! 12/17 1:49PM Amino Acid Transporters in Plants: Identification and Function. https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC7466100/ Amino acid transporters fall into two families in plants based on their sequence similarity and uptake properties: The amino acid/auxin permease (AAAP) family, also called the amino acid transporter (ATF) family, and the Amino Acid-Polyamine-Organocation (APC) family [14]. The AAAP subfamily can be further divided into general amino acid permeases (AAPs), lysine and histidine transporters (LHTs), γ-aminobutyric acid transporters (GATs), proline transporters (ProTs), indole-3-acetic acid transporters (AUXs), aromatic and neutral amino acid transporters, and amino acid transporter-like proteins. The APC family consists of three sub-families: Cationic amino acid transporters (CATs), amino acid/choline transporters, and polyamine H+-symporters (PHSs) [2,14,15,16]. Another group of transporters, designated ‘usually multiple acids move in and out transporters’ (UMAMIT),.....THIS IS ME NOT THE ARTICLE....USUALLY...WHAT STUPID NAMES THEY COME UP WITH......OK BACK TO THIS NOW...DAMN THIS IS HARD TO READ STONED...IS THAT ME OR AM I TYPING THIS.......FAR OUT MAN.....OK... was recently identified in Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) [17,18] (Supplemental Figure S1)." 12/17 2:29PM A SOUTHERN DIXIE THEME GROW!!!! REBEL FLAGS..ORANGE YA'LL WHITE & BLUE?????? A 1 MILLION DOLLAR IDEA OR A ONE STAR MAN EITHER WAY.....FUCK YEAH!!! OH THEM DUKE BOY'S GONNA GET OL' UNCLE CALGONJIM (PLAYING THE PART OF UNCLE JESSIE) PROBABLY THOWN CLEAN OFF THE INTERNETS....😈 12/17 4:09pm Now here me out...... it doesnt mean what you think it means....HOW TO MAKE CHRISTMAS CRACK BY: MCCORMICK KITCHENS https://www.mccormick.com/blogs/how-to/how-to-make-christmas-crack 🤣 REMEMER KIDS!!! " Crackers! have a special place in our hearts and tummies🎅!!!!!!!!" 👨‍🔬🚨👨‍🔬12/18. I had great success with Amino Seed Priming!!! Here is pasted from my other diary the formula :::👨‍🔬🚨👨‍🔬 That’s incredible—your Blueberry KO seed pulling through after a month AFTER soaking in amino-primed water with hydrogen peroxide, then a proline dust, is a testament to your patience and the power of those aminos! The CannaKan setup likely gave it a solid start, and the proline might have kickstarted germination by stabilizing the embryo under stress. For your new grows starting this week, an amino priming mix can set the stage for strong seedlings, building on that success. Suggested Seed Priming Mix Based on your stash (phenylalanine, Setria glutathione, proline, TMG, glutamine, glycine) and the goal of boosting germination, here’s a balanced 1-liter mix for priming. Keep it gentle to avoid shocking the seeds—aim for 200–400 mg/L total aminos. Phenylalanine: 100 mg (100 mg/L) Kickstarts the phenylpropanoid pathway for early pigment and stress defense. Setria Glutathione: 100 mg (100 mg/L) Protects against oxidative stress during soak, aiding embryo viability. Proline: 100 mg (100 mg/L) Enhances osmotic balance and germination, proven by your miracle sprout. TMG (Trimethylglycine): 50 mg (50 mg/L) Supports cell membrane stability, complementing proline’s effects. Glutamine: 50 mg (50 mg/L) Fuels nitrogen for early growth, keeping it light to avoid overload. Glycine: 0 mg (skip for now) Hold off—your mix is robust; add later if seedlings lag. Total: 400 mg/L—safe for priming, aligning with your past 470 mg/L foliar success. Preparation Base: Use pH 5.8–6.0 RO water EC LESS THAN 0.6 mS/cm to avoid salt stress.👨‍🔬🚨👨‍🔬👨‍🔬🚨👨‍🔬 12/18 2:38AM Healthy broccoli and spinach garden up next!!! This is my perpetual salad bar. Basil, lemon and dark opal, Romain, Red Romain, Swiss Chard, dark asparagus, chives, Cone Flower....and others!!!

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. 🙂

Watering the autos in solo cups at least once a day by now. Merry Christmas to everyone by the way. Unfortunately my mum has passed yesterday morning at 8:01am, her stage III cervical cancer became stage IV in just 2 months from october to december. Heart is heavy & broken but at least she is resting now. Negative Energy for me to feed on. Sending Love to everyone.

Week 4 My girl reaches her final size. This was the plant that suffered less from unbalanced soil, the damage is almost imperceptible. I took the opportunity to put the scrog that will be more to support the buds weight. Despite the initial deformity of the leaves, the plant has a very healthy aspect and a very balanced coloring, so I believe that this adventure will not influence the flavor of the flowers. In few weeks... HARVEST TIME 😋 Day 22 Hard defoliation on fan leaves.

My o my, what can I say... These ladies are gorgeous! Along with adding in the 2000W along side my 600W, I cut out the grow solution in my nutes contrary to the instructions and my ladies are booming! We'll see how the rest of the week continues! I started a majority bloom with some added glucose for my feed to help with bud weight but they are really packing on. Hopefully next week will be my last week of feeding as trichrome production increases and I can start my 2 week flush!

This week the Gnome’s have been working on Defoliating and Topping of both of the plants. This is going to start the development process that will take them into adulthood. This will help the air to move through the plants more efficiently and start the “Martini Glass” shape that we all love, instead of the single cola look. Next week we will be “lollipoping” the plants to help air flow and to transfer energy to the canapé. The biggest thing to happen at the garden is that we are “Triggering Flowering” this week and watering has started to double in frequency.
