Hey now, this week was a little rough for the Cream Mandarine auto, but it was my fault. I went out of town for 6 days and by the time I got back this morning, the EC had risen way too high due to evaporation in my reservoirs, and some of her leaves had little brown spots from the EC being too high. I could even see the spots on my live feed, but nothing I could do until I got back as I was seeing Phish down south. I flushed her this morning with about 2 gallons of water which dropped the EC of the runoff way back down to about .8, so I will resume normal feeding and see what happens. Other than than that she seems to be stacking buds very nicely and is developing a very nice smell. I believe she has another week or two to stack before she starts ripening. Next time I go away I'm going to start with the EC about .3 lower to compensate for evaporation. Thanks for stopping by, I hope everyone has a great weekend, be safe and blaze on!

She was extremly fast and ready to harvest after 55 days of flowering. Smells a bit like ripe grapes.

So life got busy but here's the harvest pics she was and is a delicious strain I still have a mother and don't plan on getting rid of her anytime soon

16.07. Blue Sunset Sherbet Day 78# Nothing special happens except that she showed sex like the other plants. I little late,yesterday was the end of the eleventh week. This plant has fallen on me at least 6-7 times, every time there's a storm I find it lying in the grass and mostly before watering when the soil is light, when it's heavy it doesn't happen... this morning I found it when I was watering, and the storms were yesterday all day and this morning, but I found some damage on the leaves and I'm sure it lay in the grass for a whole day, I didn't go around it, but mostly the wind knocked it down so many times, never a single twig it didn't break, very strong plant...I'll have to move it to another place these days, put stakes in the ground and put it in a net for vegetables. Now I water them every other day. That would be it. Stay High and Keep Growing!!!

I always find it hard to say how much water they are taking because the whole auto pot thing. It would be more useful to maybe have an option to be able to change the unit because it would be way easier for me to say how much water has been put in the res during the week - sometimes even that’s hard to remember for me! Aaaaanyway, things are going fine in the grow - I turned down the light just a tiny bit as the pistols were showing signs of having too much light and they were just looking a little bleached out, so I turned down the light to around 80-90% as well as I think I raised it a little bit also. It’s much harder keeping everything stable in such a small space when I am used to having a room to use but oh well, it is what it is - I am really lucky / stupid to be doing this one, however, I also went into the grow knowing I may have to kill her at any moment - dependant upon visits etc. I know photo growers always say there is no difference in speed between autos and photos but there is a couple of weeks in it most of the time - at the very least. I tried it, my last proper grow I selected all fairly fast flowering photos (not those photos that have been bred with autos to make them quick but just generally fast flowering plants) and it still took longer than my longest auto has taken and it annoyingly Hermes so had to turn into hash coz it was super annoying.) but that’s all in the past now… So I haven’t had to resort to using my AC yet but I did get a 1/4 of the price knocked off because it doesn’t work with the app properly and that’s basically what it was sold on! Don’t go to klarstein, people! She’s def been stretching for sure but I remember this being a really squat plant anyway and I have also trained it in a bit of an odd manner so that it grew outwards with a flatter canopy - I wouldn’t top in future. I don’t really know why I did - maybe because I always have (for the most part) but I think she’d have grown taller and had bigger side branching if I hadn’t but having said that it is pretty much impossible to tell! Unless you do an A/B test - which I obviously don’t have room for! In the next week I am hoping to see her get really hairy and hoping to have to attach a carbon filter - as that would mean she’s happy and I’m going to get some dank. With regards to expected harvest - I genuinely have no idea. She averages at around 2.5z/plant going on the info put into grow diaries and that it about what I got last time - I don’t think I ever weighed it tbh coz I grew it just to turn into rosin. Having said that, it is a totally different set up and the first time I am using this light, so I’m not sure of the capabilities of what is probably a 120-140w light - now I have dimmed it down. I mean, I guess if she was starved for light I wouldn’t have had to turn it down so I’m confident it can produce sticky buds. I will also turn it up to full power in the last couple weeks. She’s meant to be a 10 week or 70 day strain - and I hope that is true because I am going on holiday in early July so I can’t have her going on and on and on. She will have to be cut when she will have to be cut - and maybe hung whilst I am away with the ability to control the environment over Wi-Fi (and probably a camera). Iv just looked at dates and actually she can go on for 13 weeks and so it is all good - she should still be drying by the time I go there and should be ready for me when I get back - I’ll be doing a dry trim as I always do just because it slows down the drying process even more - although actually to be fair the main reason I used to do that was I didn’t have seperate climate control for drying and couldn’t use the tent as was on a perpetual grow. This time I’ll be able to set it tov 60%/60f and hopefully keep it there for a full couple of weeks. Obviously I get rid of big the fan leaves and also chop it into smaller branches but other than that I prefer to do it all dry - saves your choppers for one thing!

She’s so close! I am crazy excited for harvest. This is my first grow of anything, I’ve never harvested the fruits of my tedious labor. What an adventure this has been! The trim is what I’m really looking forward to, well all of it really. She’s not near as thirsty anymore I watered her four or five days ago (I work nights I don’t know what day it is lol) and she’s still heavy. So close! Peace friends

My apologies have been away for a bit but the pics are from the last 2 1/2 weeks! Other plant that was the same age turned out to be a male which its unfortunate because it was an accidental cross lol anyway she’s been growing vigourously ever since I made the switch..3 weeks almost complete and she’s a beast! Can’t wait to see the buds form, will try to post more frequently since my scheduled has cleared up some. Thanks for stopping by! Good luck with your own projects!...oh n it may look like I use a lot of nutes but those don’t get used every watering, I often forget to mix or purposely don’t mix one of the supplements but ALWAYS add the 3 base:gro, bloom and micro.

Week 10 - flush has been going for a few days now. Buds are looking snowy, the smell is gorgeous. Some of the leaves are showing a deep purple colour which is common in this strain. She's gonna look great when she's finished. Most of the leaves are showing nutes burn from me being over exuberant in the last Week with the nutes (should've stuck to the plan). After a bit of a chat with a fellow grower who has convinced me that my plant is not ready yet I've decided to keep feeding her for another week or so just hope I haven't ruined her by not feeding for a week. Day 69 and pulled her out of the tent for a bit of a tidy up and she looks amazing. She looks far better in her full glory than his in a tent. I'm very pleased with my first grow, made a few mistakes along the way, but she's looking better than I would of imagined.

sticky, tough and smells gr8!

4/22/25: last flush 2 tsp of sledgehammer with 1 gallon of water used 2 gallons between all three plants…more cool colors coming in with the fade 4/24/25: fed with recommended dosage for week 11 on my schedule card (day 31 of flower) 4/27/25: watered with plain ph water at 6.8

Bud sites are getting more dense and terps have ramped up a bit. The room smells like candy 🍬 when the door is open. But everything is on cruise control. 1 plant is showing a deficiency but is not affecting the growth at all. Gonna let them go for another 4 weeks then chop them down. All input is appreciated

First week of flowering, thought I had 4 females but AG#3 showed male over last night, so I'm down to 3, I was told these seeds would be 50/50 M to F so it rang true. I raised the lights yesterday & have them around 75% brightness. So far so good.

The girls are really starting to take off now. They are growing on average 1-2 inches a day. we should start to see clear preflower this week.

Last week of dragon force then flush this girl in a few days as too try hit 70 cloudy 30 amber trichomes 👊 Her sister is booming into flower week 3 now I will create a new diary too continue her onwards sonyou dont miss the full potential 🌱 The smells from the orange sherbet are beautifull, I have defoliate the younger orange sherbet abit heavy but we plod on 🤞🌱

no todo está perdido! agregue más nitrógeno sin pensar en fertilizar de mas. ahora sí que fui yo y no ella... poco tiempo pero se recuperaron las fast buds... esperemos algo de buena cosecha ruderalis... creció un poco más y no veo que afecte a las pequeñas flores formándose ... happy grow a todos!
