The flush begins...

So I definitely fucked up this week and missed some crucial water times. I passively knew in the back of my mind to but I was just having busy and stressful days.

Technical and general parameters of the breeder: Mandarine XL Auto is quite a tall strain which doesn't come as a surprise due to the fact that Sativa genes dominate in it. This cross of Cream Mandarine Auto and Thai can reach 18-23% THC. As the name implies, sour-sweet citrus notes are dominant in this tangerine strain, however you can also taste a nutty flavor. The production of buds and flowers is stunning! Lavish resin covering the tops of the plants is incredibly aromatic and thick. Mandarine XL Auto gives a relaxing balanced effect. It will make you happy but it can also boost your appetite Genetics: Cream Mandarine Auto x Thai Flowering type: Automatic Strain type: Autoflowering Sex: Feminized Indica/Sativa/Ruderalis: 35/63.4/1.6% From seeds to harvest: 9 weeks Indoor height: 110-150 cm Harvest Indoor: 450-650 g/m2 Harvest Outdoor: 50-300 g/plant THC: 18-30% CBD: 0.6% Taste: Citrus fruits, Sweet, Sour, Mandarin Effect: Creativity boosting, Happy, Hungry, Psychedelic, Relaxing For cultivation I used: Cultivation area: 80x80x180cm 1x circulation fan: 15W LED lighting: Mars Hydro TS 1000 - 150W - vegetation and flowering 💡💡 Exhaust: pipe fan - RAMTT100 Odor filter: PRO-ECO HF carbon filter 160-240m3/h - 100mm - maximum air flow up to 240m3/h 4x textile flower pots 11l Substrate: Plagron Lightmix perlite coco coir Thank you to all my friends who support me in growing, who give me advice - @Happy_Rakosnicek, thank you to my friends from Grow Diaries for likes, advice and support 😍❤️❤️ Many thanks to the Ganja Farmer team for providing the sponsor seeds 🌱🌱😍 Thanks for the likes and you can follow me on Twitter 🐦: @ Targona666 Many thanks to Mars Hydro, specifically @Coco_Pan2022 for providing the Mars Hydro TS1000 sponsor light💡💡😉 Smoking Review: I will add after about 10-15 days of drying the buds 💨💨

Harvest Day

The Gorilla Glue has some rust spots on the top leaves, added some cal/mag to counteract that. Last week I thinned her out a good bit, no more fans covering bud sites more or less... Probably should have done that before she got into flower. The Gelato has recovered from the topping/fimmings and is growing its new tops, I also removed the very top leaves to keep it from growing much taller before I yoink the Gorilla Glue. Still an experiment plant, still growing better than I thought it was going to, still just sitting in the back vegetating. Day 63: This Gorilla Glue is doing markedly better than I thought it was going to. It has about 8 satellite nugs and one monster nug in the middle. The monster nug stem is zig zagged because I trained it multiple times so it's getting light on multiple levels directly to the top. I feel like there should only be 2 more weeks or so looking at the trichome production, there are some cloudy heads on the sugar leaves but still all clear on the nugs. Day 69: Don't think I'm going to feed the Gorilla Glue again, whatever happens, happens. Final feeding was 1tsp Tiger Bloom 0.5tsp cal/mag. I also removed the Gelato from the diary. It's still in there but I'll start a new diary if I decide to flower this plant.

Plants are doing well! Great genetics so far and easy to grow! The 2 gorillas that went into flower weeks ago I’m not 100% sure if they were photos. Should have been but they are still budding. Full of tons of leaves so I’m hoping for a reveg but not sure if that’s because of the worm castings giving that nitrogen or if they are in reveg. I’m gonna let them ride and we shall see what happens. I’ve done some lower defoliation along with removing some really huge leaves to open it up and let light in. These plants are seriously really Hardy! Super thick stalks and healthy leaves. Really happy with these seeds so far!

Anfang vierte Blüte Woche Pflanzen sehen gut aus Habe sie generell wenig gedüngt

@ 1.5-1.6 kPa The plants have a strong, sweet skunk aroma, and when you smell the flowers directly, you also detect a zesty orange scent. The buds are quite heavy for the plant, it would have benefited from a ScrOG net or additional support.

This #40 and #42 plants from Ganja Farmer Seeds where the best out of them all, this is a bias review though as they where not all grown in the same bucket system as these two and thus could not grow to their true potential. The bugs where solid rock hard and crystaly They are true keepers if your wanted a good performing auto for shits and giggle outdoors. The major downside is how easily they got pests and how the pests preferred them over the other weed plants. this is a bit concerning to me and makes me wonder why. More to come. @GanjaFarmerSeeds, If you like the images or videos I can send you raw files that have not been shrunk and contain no watermarks, if you feel I am in the top 3 of your BDOTY Contest that is :D

🙏

Great :) GOOD START-HALF OF THE WORK !!!! The girl looks very good :) so far the small space does not cause any problems, for the first time I see that after you tried cutting off the main head, new branches grow from that place :) it will be really interesting :) I used LST a little until the height of the branches is even, and then I will try to do a scrog :) good luck to everyone :).

Repotting on June 13, from 12l to 30l

My overall impressions of this strain from MSNL: Ive noticed that MSNL genetics tend to switch to flower earlier than all the ther autos i've grown. The initial growth on the plant starts out small headed into flowering but then explodes during flowering. Because of this I start my feed at week 3 and I used the full NFTG advanced feed but only at 1/2 the recommended amounts of the early veg schedule they made. This works out well with these plants and by week 5 they can handle the full Nute schedule. A proper flush was needed at-least twice a week during the flowering period. It is a lot of work to maintain PH and soil PPM but its essential with the NFTG and if you do it right you WILL get rewarded with Danky goodness. Last time around I grew three plants and tried 3 different training techniques to see which method worked better for this strain. I learned that LST with minimal defoliation is the best route and I stuck with what I knew and im pretty sure it worked out great! I got nice uniform growth growth and 4 truly massive main bud stalks with very dense growth even below the canopy. I virtually had no popcorn nugs, I think I had one! I also contribute that to my NFTG nutrients and Spider Farmer sf2000 202 W qb, that thing kicked some serious ass during flowering, although it is relatively strong and some of my other autos seemed to be affected by the intensity but this Purple Hulk was very heat resistant through it all. Overall I would definitely recommend using LST to some extent with these genetics because of the small initial growth you will get at first. Start the nutes sooner than later. maybe week 3, but at half the strength. Feeding the soil would be a good idea right from the get go . Mammoth P is a cool microbe that targets phosphorus directly and recharge will slam pack your substrate with beneficial microbes and ive noticed a very clear difference after incorporating these into my NFTG feed. Another thing I did that seemed to help was weekly epsom salt (magnesium sulfate) sprays on top of my bloom khaos foliar sprays. I didn't deal with any deficiencies at all this time around following this feeding regiment 👌 I do not have taste/aroma info for this specific plant just yet but I will update this frequently with new information when I get it including dry weight, taste, and aroma, more photos, and overall impressions of its medicine. so please stay tuned!! Dubes~ *UPDATES* March 3- I removed the PHULK from 32 hours of darkness and chopped branches. 19.5 oz wet on the scale!! Im attempting hang drying for the first time because of my dry conditions.

Second week of flora is complete, a few days ago she decided to show herself as a beautiful girl 💅🏻💅🏻💅🏻. Good development, very good structure and looking forward to the next few weeks.. 🏻💪🏻

Plant is stretching a bit with some appearance of Pistils, started bloom nutes for pre-flowering, but still has a way to go. Plant is quite low as I trained her that way (accidentally 😅) hopefully won’t affect yields too much. Update following question: general consensus is that light meter app is unreliable so Im using the PAR chart from the grow light as a measurement. Boost Buddy CO2 bag added to the tent with a good effect. Plant seems to be doing well in all, one browned tip and no other seemed to appear.

FBT 2308 is growing great under the Medic grow mini Sun-2, and in the Agrogardens nutrition. She had her first lst today. Plus she had a good root pruning. She is looking really good so far.

Un altra settimana è passata senza problemi...grazie alla mia perseveranza nel curarla e debellare i ragnetti Rossi che bastardelli mi sono arrivati anche dentro al box... sicuramente c'è li ho portati io involontariamente quando sono andato a vedere delle piante di un amico che erano impregnate di ragnetti e ragnatele sui fiori....vabbè ora devo sbattermi un po' più ma non lascerò che mi rovinino la mia terapia 💪👍🙏🕉️🙏... Boom Shiva Shankar 🕉️ belle le mie coccinelle 🐞 che mi tengono pulita la mia terapia

Plants are striving nicely..🤗

Start of week 5 for White Widow Shes still getting bushier & bushier! Its really making me debate whether to defoliate some more...but greenhouse told me not to? 😂 Ive sent them an update video so lets see if they change their mind. Still feeding her every day from the bottom.

It's now the start of week 4, everything is pretty much the same, I decided not to LST this time around, instead I'll just defoliate as needed to allow better light penetration as she bushes out. went fishing yesterday and had some leftover minnows in my bucket that died off an left me with some nasty water so I'll mix it 50/50 with rain water and water my plant today, I usually water heavy once a week with one or two light waterings in between when the top soil starts to dry out.
