The Germination Odyssey of Blackberry Auto: A Grower's Diary Chapter 01 Greetings, fellow cultivators! Today, I bring you the enthralling tale of my Blackberry Auto's germination – a journey filled with anticipation, dedication, and a touch of magic. It all began with a tiny Blackberry Auto seed, a potential green marvel waiting to unfold. With the excitement of a horticultural explorer, I delicately placed the seed into the H2O oasis, where the dance of germination was set to commence. The water cradled the seed like a nurturing embrace, awakening the dormant life within. As the seed soaked in the liquid symphony, a subtle transformation took place. It absorbed the essence of life, swelling with the promise of a vibrant future. In those moments, I felt a connection with the very essence of growth – a humble seed evolving into a botanical masterpiece. The time had come to transfer this burgeoning life force into the next stage – the root riot. Placing the seed in this matrix of potential, I marveled at the intricate dance between life and the growing medium. The root riot cradled the seedling-to-be, creating a perfect haven for roots to stretch and explore. With the root riot as a launching pad, I introduced my Blackberry Auto to the dome of dreams. Inside this miniature greenhouse, the seedling began its ascent toward the light. Temperature: a cozy 28°C, humidity: a whopping 95%. The perfect conditions for a germination symphony, a crescendo of life echoing within the dome. Oh, the magic of 28°C! The ideal temperature for my Blackberry Auto to stretch its roots and unfurl its tiny leaves. It's fascinating how this golden number orchestrates the ballet of germination, a symphony of growth playing out in my humble cultivation space. As I stand before the thriving Blackberry Auto, I see not just a plant but a testament to the delicate balance of nature and nurture. The journey from seed to this radiant seedling is a reminder that each step is a chapter in a living story. In the coming weeks, I'll continue this saga – documenting every milestone, every challenge, and every triumph as my Blackberry Auto blossoms into a bountiful harvest. Join me in this horticultural adventure, where the language of plants is spoken, and the dance of growth unfolds. Stay tuned for more updates from the heart of my cannabis cultivation sanctuary!

2/21/2019 #2 is a little unruly for a tent this small, but great outside. #1 is doing great flowering,this week I hope to see more filling out of the buds. Also.feeding overdrive into the mix for week six as suggested, see if she likes it! Hope it works. All is going well otherwise letting plants dry out a little they don't seem to care both plants.drank 2 liters plain water before runoff of 10-15%. Get the soil nice and damp for feeding time kind of a drain to waste style.

Ciao ragazzi 👍ho fatto questo diario perché ho messo una talea di Critical 🌱in outdoor... non piccolo esperimento vediamo come va....l'idea è di mandarla in fioritura comprendola con un panno tra circa 4 settimane🌻....stismo a vedere come procede perché non ho mai provato questa tecnica in outdoor....💚 L'altra ragazza nello smart pot è una talea di gorilla madre della RQS

This weather's been crazy! We've been stuck in this deep freeze for over a week now. The temperature hasn't climbed above freezing for like 10 days – it's brutal out there. And to make things worse, with all this cold, the humidity's been acting weird. It's really hard on the plants, especially without the sun to help them dry out a Little. Even though they're a little behind the others, those permanent marker plants are looking good. Being so close to the light must be helping them stack up those buds, so hopefully it's just a matter of time before they really start to shine.

Vielleicht die letzte Woche? Gibt nur ph neutralisiertes Wasser , keine Düngung mehr! 05.02 viele bernsteinfarbene Trichome, nächste Woche wird geerntet 09.02 Die Farben werden intensiver

End of the first official week of rooting for these WalkerBerry OG cuts. We’re down to 6 plants and 2 specimens of each. It’s been 4 days since initial cutting and they’re already showing small signs of rooting. I’ve had nothing but success with this little home made aerocloner for years and it’s just so much easier and less hassle than all the humidity domes and mats etc. nothing against it - I’m just lazy and all that stuff is a pain in the ass. As of now - all the leaves on the cuts have started to ball up in confusion as they shift focus to more root creation. They want to flower but know they can’t so I expect to see re-vegetation in another few days. After that we’ll probably have to look at some sort of impromptu dwc system as this container likely can’t take even half of em through full term through pollination. We’ll look to re-initiate flower as soon as they’ve got some decent developed root growth. Alls good here👍. ***update - all clones showing good root growth in only 7 days. Upping to a full Rez in a couple days.

6/14/2021: - Just when you think the shit isn't growing, you're three nodes deep, lolll - Plant and soil seem to be taking well to neem, karanja cake & kelp tea soil drench and foliar spray - No negative effects of spraying diluted mixed lacto + wild yeast solution so far - Combined some lacto + yeast solution with tea in a separate container. After fermenting overnight, smelled of butyric acid. Tossed it - Starting to see red in the stems - Plant is growing well - Thinking about transplant beginning or end of week 4

Very happy with how this lady has performed, amazing quality buds, very sticky and dense flower with a concrete smell that I love so much, which is that kind of fruity sweet flavor that this lady is able to produce, it's been a beautiful journey, I'm gonna enjoy a lot this flowers. Very recomended guys!

La semana comienza bien 👍 la planta se ve sana y esta creciendo con fuerza. La he aplicado sus primeros nutrientes añadiendo 5ml de terra Vega de Canna a 1L de agua ajustando el pH a 6 y con una temperatura de 25°C Veremos como responde a la poda apical que la hizimos la semana pasada, aunque parece por el momento que va muy bien 😉👌

04.06. Day 84 Flowering Day 64

Buds starting now. Seem a bit slow. Keeping an eye on environment. Possibly bit cold when lights off

Getting ready for the final week or flower!!

06/05/21 -Riego todas las plantas con 1.8 litros de agua y los nutrientes. -Los cogollos siguen engordando poco a poco, se nota sobre todo en los inferiores, que ahora están llenos de pelos. -Algunas hojas están amarillas pero supongo que será debido a que no les da suficiente luz. Las que están peor son las que defolio, además de 1 o 2 hojas por planta que tapan algunos cogollos. 10/05/21 -Riego las plantas con 2 litros de agua cada una y los nutrientes. -Se nota una pequeña quemadura en los cogollos de arriba de una de las plantas, quizás porque la luz estaba demasiado cerca. Estuve 4 días fuera y no lo pude corregir. -Por lo general las plantas siguen fuertes y sin ningún problema 11/05/21 -No se qué ha pasado pero cuando hoy he abierto el armario tenía uno de los cogollos de CCXLA1 cubierto de moho. Me fijé porque 2 hojas parecían un poco podridas y al tocar el cogollo estaba muy blando. Me puse guantes, corté el cogollo con unas tijeras e inspeccioné la planta buscando otros posibles signos de moho. Parece que no hay más así que dejaré la planta por ahora. La he defoliado más para que tenga más flujo de aire. -No entiendo cómo ha podido pasar esto ya que la humedad relativa del cultivo no supera nunca el 57% aprox y en general se mantiene al 50%. -Ahora toca estar muy pendiente estas últimas semanas para ver si se forma más moho que pueda acabar con la cosecha. Fck

Lollipoped and set for the flowering phase

7/29 - Week 9 of veg is starting. At this point, it is just let them grow up a few inches, and also fill out the pots some more with roots before transplanting to 5 gallon fabric pots (their final homes). I also plan on mixing a 'flower blend' soil to fill up the 5g pot around the rootball that is transplanted. This recipe for the soil is taken from MaximumYield: Enhanced fruit/flower potting soil recipe This soil recipe is designed for plants that are ready to fruit or flower. In particular, this recipe works great for ornamentals that are already in bloom and for fast-growing annuals that are entering their fruiting or flowering stage. Parenthesis indicate small changes or products I'm using. 1/2 cu. ft. (60 cups) sphagnum peat moss (Promix BX) 1/4 cu. ft. (30 cups) coco coir (Mother Earth Coco Peat) 1/4 cu. ft. (30 cups) compost (either compost or manure) 1/4 cu. ft. (30 cups) perlite 10 cups pumice (likely to just use perlite here) 5 cups worm castings 3 cups bat guano (high phosphorus) 1 cup fish bone meal (using regular bone meal, got Jobe's Bone Meal) 1 cup oyster shell 1/2 cup seabird guano (likely to just add as the high phosporous guano) 1/4 cup alfalfa meal 1/4 cup fish meal (Down to Earth Fish Meal) 2 tbsp. langbeinite (Down to Earth Langeinite) 1 tbsp. glacier rock dust (Azomite ordered from Amazon) 7/30 - While technically the morning of 7/31, lights haven't gone out yet, so it is still the 30th ;) It almost hurts posting pictures today, because they were really thirsty, but I honestly hadn't looked at them for a couple days. Anywho, the plants were watered with ~1.25 liters of water each, about 90 minutes before lights out. Will be interesting to post the 7/31 photos after a couple hours of lights on, and see the difference in appearance. I also mixed the soil for flowering, and it will now have a couple weeks to 'cook' and become ready for the plants. I did make a mistake and accidentally added 1 cup of fish meal instead of 1/4 cup (oops), and the alfalfa meal just smelled too good, so I added 1/2 cup instead of 1/4. Hopefully those 2 'changes' don't add too much nitrogen for flower, but I imagine it won't. I also instead of adding perlite (didn't want to buy a 4 cu ft bag when I needed at most 2.5 gallons (1/3 cu ft), so I opted to add 1 gallon of pumice. Since the coco peat and promix both have perlite in them, I didn't want too much added. There were also some worms from the compost that made it into the tote that is now storing the mix, so life has already started in the soil. 7/31 - It wasn't just after lights on, as I didn't have time to photo earlier, but this is just about 24 hours after watering, and praying/looking good. I had noticed that it looked like the fan had slipped down the pole a bit, and was causing some wind burn/clawing of the leaves yesterday, which probably attributed to poor looks, but looking better today! While I am not that versed in checking preflowers, from what I can tell, if I had to guess, CH#1 could be either (maybe slightly leaning towards female, thought I might have saw a couple hairs), and the #2 actually looked male to me. 8/4 - After getting home from work, and realizing I hadn't checked on the plants in a couple days and I knew they were due for water either yesterday or today, I saw some THIRSTY plants. They each got ~1.2L of water, and also a quick trim back. After checking preflowers again, I am afraid that both Chinook plants may end up male :(

8/10 - Got around 50g per plant, very frosty and compact too for an autoflower. Wanted to share the final product and the whole journey in once. Hope you like it. BTW: why can i only make one harvest when i dont harvest all the same time? And ive seen others be able to harvest week after week. Peace & Love

Fastbuds Smoothie Auto 🔸🔸🔸05/03/2023🔸🔸🔸 📝Saturday 06.10.23 - As this week comes to an end, I am seeing signs that the plants need a bit of calcium, so today was a topdressing day with a 70/30 blend of Bloom to Grow, watered in with H20 PG to 6.2 with CalMag at 5ML per Gallon of H20. 📝Thursday 06.08.23 Two of these ladies are really rocking it, 1 of these ladies is moving very slowly. , Moved the Medic Grow Smart 8 LED into the Flowering setting, increasing the Far Reds, check out the above slide and the amazing PFD! 🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸 ▪️Grown By: MrJones ▪️Medic Grow Smart 8 LED / Settings 60% & F1 ▪️@medicgrow420 ▪️@fastbuds_genetics_official ▪️@gaiagreenorganics ▪️Soil - ProMix HP 🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸 📝Smoothie Auto is the result of a cross between Somango and Blueberry, and really brings out the best of both worlds; a well-statured plant ideal for all types of growers.
