Didn't get the potential. Very happy with the look of the finished product , so far I'll give this particular strain 9.3. In it's best stability this would be my go to phenotype cause of the overall potential and ratio. Very happy for it being my first auto grow experience now I'm hooked. Definitely would suggest this bad girl for a first time auto enthusiast and for the connoisseur . I've been looking into that Purple Lemonade by Fast Buds and very excited to purchase also that Black Berry cause they remind me of the Blue Dreams large flower to plant ratio. For now and my next auto grow will beee......🥁 FB.Six Shooter, VS.Super Xtra Skunk, Seedsman's Northern Lights Seedsman's Limited Edition Strawberry Cheesecake. I decided to do multiples this time because of finish times I feel will never be the extact either way I'll try to get a rotation going .😃

Über die ersten Wochen konnte man sich nicht beschweren. Das Wetter hat größtenteils mitgespielt und die jungen Pflanzen hatten gute Wachstumsbedingungen.

Hello again, dear growers! 🌱👋 We’ve officially stepped into Week 10 of this wild and fragrant journey! Last week ended with a little makeover for the girls—I defoliated about 30-40% of the leaves again. ✂️ The Gorilla decided to keep me on my toes by showing some nutrient deficiencies on her leaves—guess she didn’t get enough food after the flush. 🍌🌿 (Lesson learned: don’t keep a Gorilla hungry!) Now, let’s talk about Runtz! 😍 She’s an absolute queen—so photogenic that even my struggling phone can’t capture her real beauty. 📸✨ She’s forming into one giant, luscious bud, and her fragrance is something else entirely! 🕵️‍♂️ The carbon filter is fighting the good fight, but if the room isn’t aired out every 8-9 hours, a little aroma starts sneaking through. But opening the tent… oh, my friends, that’s where the magic happens! 🌬️💫 The aroma is intoxicating—imagine diving headfirst into a field of flowers while bees whisper secrets in your ears. 🌺🐝 I just sit there, enchanted, savoring the smell, and staring at these beauties like a hypnotized gardener. Honestly, it’s hard to walk away. 😂 Here’s their menu for the week: 🍵 Feed: A+B 4ml/L, Micro Chum 1ml/L, Big Bud 2ml/L 📊 PPM: 1050 | pH: 5.8 💧 Runoff: PPM 1000 | pH 6.0-6.3 Now, for the not-so-great news… I’m struggling with humidity levels—daytime sits around 65-77%, and at night, it can climb to a stubborn 80%. 🌫️ Temperature-wise, it’s 23-25°C during the day and drops to a cool 16-18°C at night. ❄️🔥 Despite the challenges, the endgame is near, and I’m savoring every moment of this grow! 🌟 🙌 Happy growing, everyone! 🌱🔥

This is where I really started to take a lot more pictures! Everything was coming along great, I had some slight nutrient lockout starting this week but I took care of it quickly! They respond very well to the training.

Important: Key Rules for my Setup Feed every watering (1–2 L) → safer with autos and small volumes. Check runoff ppm every 2–3 weeks → if 250–300 ppm higher than input, do a light flush (3-4L). Plain water reset → once every 2–3 weeks during feeding phase. Defoliation → light only (2–3 leaves every few days if shading colas). Light height → keep ~55 cm from canopy with two SF1000D to avoid more light stress and to spread even light distribution. Notes: Remove only occasional fan leaves shading bud sites. Keep light height at least 50 cm to prevent further light stress. Maintain RH ~45–55% and 20-26C for this week. (Currently more like 50-55%) UPDATE: FEEDOMG THEM MORE THAN I HAVE EVEN FED AUTFLOWERS. But I was a little behind from the switch from Veg to Bloom. Looks like its stabilized now though. Last Week of VERY light defoliaten and from now it will be 1ml/L Green Sensation. Will keep Grow for a bit, so they dont loose more green. PPFD/DLI: Photo attached to show my PPFD in my tent. (Made wiith ChatGPT) "At 55 cm, your canopy is still getting: ~700–800 µmol/m²/s in the middle ~500–600 µmol/m²/s in the corners That’s well within the ideal flowering PPFD range (600–900), and because you run a 20h cycle, the DLI is already plenty high (≈ 35–40 mol/m²/day)." I have given them more nutrients since they all are super hungry. I think I should have stayed with higher doses of N for longer. Now it’s too risky to overcompensate. I don’t want nitrogen in the end of flowering. Or as little as possible without hurting potentials. Which wasn’t successful this time trying a new line of nutrients.

The girls bounced back very nicely from their topping! They are growing out, rather than up and are on their way to filling out my tent. I will be transplanting these ladies next week, probably to a 4 gallon tall pot. I am thinking I want to flower sooner rather than waiting the typical 8 weeks of Veg that I usually do…

An easy to grow strain that provides quality over quantity. The smoke is quite potent and has floral and kush aromas. Very strong floral flavour

She has just started to flower. No nutes super soil living soil still going strong. So I fed her when I should t have. And stunted her a bit. But i think she’s coming back nicely.

D35 - The first day in the first week of flower. She was getting thirsty, so I gave her 1.2-liters of water @ pH 6.2 and, as always, she drooped after. My old humidifier died on me, so today, I got a new one. It's a smaller version of the one in my other tent, and it is the cutest little thing, but hey, it doesn't need to be mighty for that tiny tent. I also got a new Inkbird to keep the RH constant. I already use one of those in my other tent, but I opted for the WiFi version this time. I shouldn't have bothered, though, as all it does is display the RH but doesn't allow the app to control the Inkbird. Pointless as I already have remote temp/RH monitoring. D40 - Today, I did some more LST and light defoliation to ensure proper airflow. The canopy shadowed the leaves I removed, so they weren't contributing much anyway. I've increased how much light she is getting since she is in flower, but I have to be careful due to the younger Chocodope girl in the same tent. Currently, I'm reading around 650 PPFD at canopy level but will increase that over time until I hit about 900 PPFD. Finally, I gave her about 0.6-liters of water @ pH 6.5. D41 - The end of the first week of flower, and all is well.

Nine weeks! This week I wasn't able to take many photos because I had to travel and was away from home.

7/31/20 Noticeable growth this week and she started to turn pale, so I had to increase my nutrients to 600 PPM. I’ve also trimmed the fan leaves and started to LST. She is definitely showing some Sativa genes. Otherwise, nothing major to report. I plant to transplant her sometime this week to a 3 gallon-ish pot.

Week 3 Update: Plant Growth: Progress has been slower than anticipated due to persistent cloudy and rainy weather. Despite the setbacks, I've noticed some signs of growth in the plants, albeit at a slower pace. Implemented Low Stress Training (LST) on a few of the stronger plants, including the Gorilla Glue and Gelato varieties, to encourage more robust growth. Weather Conditions: The weather continues to be a challenge, with only a few sunny days throughout the week. Rainfall has been frequent, making it difficult to provide the optimal growing conditions for the plants. Adaptations and Solutions: To counteract the lack of sunlight, I've constructed a mini tent equipped with LED lights to provide supplemental light and warmth to the plants. Despite the less than ideal conditions, the plants seem to be responding positively to the additional light and warmth. Nutrient Management: Feeding schedule adjusted to once every 2-3 days, alternating between water and nutrient-rich solutions. Using a combination of guano, worm tea, and a basic Grow NPK Autogrow mix to provide essential nutrients to the plants. Observations: Although growth has been slower than expected, I'm encouraged by the resilience of the plants and their ability to adapt to challenging conditions. Keeping a close eye on the plants for any signs of stress or nutrient deficiencies and adjusting care accordingly. Looking Ahead: Hoping for a change in the weather in the coming weeks to provide better growing conditions for the plants. Despite the challenges, remaining optimistic and committed to nurturing the plants to their fullest potential.

Gold Sativa is doing well. She is in heavy bulking. I upped her nutrition. She is in a New Level Hydro bucket, under a Spider Farmer SE5000 light. Nothing new to report. Steady the course till the finish.
