Looks like this might be the last week for this girl. Was hoping to see more change in tricomes but not sure if worth the wait. Give it a few more days and see what the loop says.

Still on cruise control. Everything is going nicely. Temps are within specs and all other aspects seem to be falling into place.

Day 19-26 (May 10th - May 17th) (Day 21) Stretch is almost over and the plants still look like they’re in veg. I’m seeing almost zero trichomes and when compared to my other room it’s laughable. At least the sites are starting to fill in a little. One plant is super leggy and stretchy. I’m guessing it’s Jack Herer but won’t know until late flower or harvest. The plant in the far left corner has great structure and thick pistil clumps. I’m guessing it’s either blueberry or the white og. Blueberry has a pretty distinct smell so differentiating all the strains won’t be that hard actually. (Day 24) I’ve been rearranging the plants once in a while just to get all sides exposed to some decent light. I never realized how much I value my LED until this run. The only way I would ever use another hps for flower is if it was one of those 1000w DE lights that all the commercial grows use. Sites are starting to fill in quite a bit now. Trichomes are still non existent though. Even on the archive genetics which is really surprising. (Day 25) Pots somewhat dried out finally. Tomorrow I’m going to leach everything with another 2 liters each and top dress with 15ml of nature’s pride bloom, 10ml of Destiny launch and 5ml of kelp meal. I’m starting to see minor N tox on some of the plants so I will probably give them a full gallon. This tent is largely experimental so I’m going to fuck with these plants pretty heavy to iron out some theories and try some new techniques. (Day 26) When I was watering today I noticed that slurricane, Puro loco and guava cake all hermed. The archives just got too stressed out in early veg I think. When I dug up both plants they were still being choked out by the sponge aerogarden plugs. Puro Loco was leading by far in the trichome department too. The guava cake was from a hermed bagseed so it’s not surprising at all but that kind of pisses me off about the “elite” Archive genetics, especially if you paid 200$ for a 10 pack. Then again, it was still my error and not their genetics. Luckily I didn’t pay a dime for them. Running those was a complete waste of time and space. With proper environment and no seedling stress I’m sure I could have grown some amazing looking stuff. All the European and Canadian genes look fine though. I’m sure they would have filled out a lot more if they weren’t being choked out by hermies. No signs of bananas anywhere else. Hopefully the 4 slurricanes I have outdoor this year will pull through without herming.

Last week of flush now up until harvest, cannot wait to try these. The buds have turned out so nice. I’ve got a temperature controller to keep the temps consistent. Going to get these cut as soon as the tricomes start to turn amber! That’s it and 1 down now, drying until a branch snaps next to chop will be the lemon pie and then finally the other diesel. Cannot wait! I will update soon with the yeild and smoke report!

10/23: I fed today with One, sweet & sticky, signal, superthrive, silica, and a little ca/mg. 10/27: Fed today with one, signal, sweet & sticky, silica, beastie bloomz, kangeroots, and humic acid.

Update coming.

Harvest week for Auto Mintz arrived around week 14-15, with the two plants hitting about 90 cm and sporting sticky buds. The air carried a sharp, minty scent, and the trichomes had turned mostly milky with a few amber flecks – time to cut. Watering stopped a couple of days before, and on harvest day, the buds were trimmed carefully, yielding a modest but satisfying 140 grams dry from both plants. They dried over a week in a dark, ventilated spot at 20-22°C and 45-50% humidity, keeping their fresh aroma. It was a straightforward process with a decent outcome for the effort.

Plants recovering well …heat is causing some problems in the indica room otherwise all is well …1 more week till flush then 1 more week after that til harvest

ADDED:Last grow video.... Frosty Gelato . growers choice. ADDED: These gorilla-cookies-auto seeds were a freebie from fast bud when purchasing a few packs of the newly released mix pack photoperiod ..which is the none Auto in the pot behind the pot of this diary.. if she turns out to have good genetics il mother her and that's the next grow sorted Links https://2fast4buds.com/seeds/mix-pack https://2fast4buds.com/seeds/gorilla-cookies-auto The seed went from glass of water o a coco coir plug after 36hrs (had a 6mm taproot) then straight into the finishing pot just incase the prepared medium is to hot for seedling after I have been buffering the coco and also added a spoon of guano about a 1/4 way down the pot... The mycorrhizol with the guano is a mix for the perfect start I won't water much and by the time my roots get down there will be a thriving ecosystem waiting to welcome them. Thanks for reading Happy growing 💚

Welcome to 📅 Day 22 of veg 4/5/2021 she is finally stretching out a bit and is almost at the trellis she is growing happy and healthy and that makes me happy lol. I'm hoping that in the next 2 days she is through the net and LST has started... 🤞

We’re officially in the final week for my Strawberry Gorilla Automatic from Fast Buds! 🌟 This beautiful girl has had a very quick flowering phase, but looking at the trichomes, they’re right where they need to be so no complaints! She will be flushed throughout this week and then harvested and hung up to dry next week. I’m super happy with how she’s developed!😋

2024-05-25 The Fatso GO Plants had a good stretch again, and i can see tiny Flowerbuds thats good, so they are officially into Floweringmode. Weather is cold and rainy again, so they will stay indoors for longer. Fatso GMO F1 Auto, a feminized hybrid strain, emerges from the crossbreeding of two autoflowering varieties: Fatso Auto and Cotton Candy Auto. This California-derived cultivar leans slightly towards sativa, offering growers a straightforward cultivation experience coupled with impressive yields, robust THC levels, and a delightful palate featuring sweet, candy, and fuel undertones. Thriving both indoors and outdoors, Fatso GMO F1 Auto exhibits above-average resistance to mold, while still benefiting from adequate ventilation, particularly in environments with higher humidity levels. Its exceptional resistance to pests and pathogens ensures hassle-free cultivation. While indoor plants maintain a compact stature of around 100cm or less, outdoor specimens can stretch a bit taller, reaching heights of up to 130cm when grown in open ground. Completing its entire lifecycle within a maximum of 75 days from germination to harvest, Fatso GMO F1 Auto delivers yields considered average yet impressive for an autoflowering strain. The combination of high resin production and elevated terpene levels renders it an excellent choice for cannabis extract production. Its terpene profile presents a sweet and funky aroma with savory hints of Skunk complemented by pine and floral notes. On the palate, it delights with flavors reminiscent of sweet candy underscored by subtle fuel undertones. With THC levels reaching a high of 24% and minimal CBD content, Fatso GMO F1 Auto delivers a balanced and uplifting effect, appealing to enthusiasts seeking a satisfying and harmonious experience.

Plants smell amazing, and seem too like the banana juice. Will continue to use stash blend as well for the next week or two.

I wish they didn't make me do this to get a smileI wish they didn't make me do this to get a smileI wish they didn't make me do this to get a smileI wish they didn't make me do this to get a smileI wish they didn't make me do this to get a smileI wish they didn't make me do this to get a smile

Some of the plants were stretching, we moved them. The bigger ones should enter pre-flower soon.

The Purple Ferrari is doing fantastic and has stretched much taller than expected considering shes in a grapes container from Asda..my Coney Island Cotton Candy looks like it may have passed away unfortunatly.

420 Fastbuds Week 7 Blackberry Auto What up grow fam. Weekly update for these two amazing Blackberry strain. Over all the colors are off the charts cool, flower sites swelling daily, and smell starting to get stronger everyday. No big noticeable issues that are alarming so will continue with the same routine. I will say everytime I open my tent up my eyes seem to automatically get drawn to these two not only from the colors but the smell on them is mesmerizing. All in all Happy Growing

As we weren't present most of the week, we used capillary action (using a shoelace 😃) to water it with about 750 ml of water for the whole week.
