🍑 Apricot Automatic – Woche 8 | Blütewoche 3 Diese Woche zeigt sich endlich das wahre Ziel dieses außergewöhnlichen Projekts. Was ursprünglich als drei einzelne Apricot Automatic Pflanzen begann, entwickelt sich immer mehr zu einer einzigen lebenden Skulptur. Mein Ziel war es von Anfang an, drei Pflanzen so miteinander wachsen zu lassen, dass sie später wie eine einzige riesige Pflanze wirken – und genau das beginnt jetzt Realität zu werden. Die ersten drei Blütewochen haben den Stretch fast abgeschlossen. Nun richtet die gesamte Pflanze ihre Energie vollständig auf die Blütenbildung. Überall entstehen neue Budsites und an jeder Verzweigung schieben sich frische weiße Blütenfäden in Richtung Sonne. Besonders spannend ist dabei die gleichmäßige Entwicklung. Statt einer dominanten Hauptcola entstehen unzählige gleich hohe Triebe, wodurch sich später eine unglaublich gleichmäßige Blütendecke bilden dürfte. Trotz des wechselhaften Wetters zeigt die Apricot keinerlei Schwächen. Regen, Wind und kühlere Nächte scheinen sie kaum zu beeindrucken. Das satte Grün der Blätter, die kräftigen Stämme und die vitale Entwicklung sprechen für eine ausgesprochen robuste Genetik. Noch ist von den typischen Apricot-Terpenen nur eine leichte fruchtige Süße wahrnehmbar, doch mit jeder Woche wird das Aroma intensiver werden. Dieses Projekt ist für mich weit mehr als ein normaler Outdoor-Grow. Es ist ein kleines Experiment, das zeigen soll, was möglich ist, wenn drei Pflanzen perfekt miteinander harmonieren und gemeinsam zu einer Einheit erzogen werden. Die Grundlage für eine spektakuläre Blüte ist gelegt – jetzt beginnt der Teil, auf den ich mich seit Wochen freue. Vielen Dank an Fast Buds für diese fantastische Genetik und an Plagron, die auch draußen wieder für kräftiges Wachstum und gesunde Pflanzen sorgen. Three roots... one plant... one dream. 🍑💚 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 🍑 Apricot Automatic – Week 8 | Flower Week 3 Week 8 marks a very exciting point in this unique outdoor project. What started as three individual Apricot Automatic plants is slowly transforming into what I imagined from day one—a single giant plant made from three perfectly trained sisters growing together as one. The stretch is almost complete, and all of their energy is now shifting toward flower production. Every branch is stacking fresh white pistils, and new bud sites are appearing across the entire canopy. The most rewarding part is how evenly the plants have developed. Instead of producing one dominant main cola, the training has created a balanced canopy with dozens of equally promising flowering tops that should mature together over the coming weeks. Even with changing outdoor conditions, the Apricot girls continue to impress. Rain, wind and cooler temperatures haven't slowed them down at all. Healthy green foliage, strong stems and vigorous growth prove just how resilient this Fast Buds genetic really is. The famous Apricot aroma is only beginning to reveal itself with subtle fruity sweetness, but I know the coming weeks will unlock the full terpene profile. This grow is much more than simply growing three autoflowers outdoors. It is an experiment to demonstrate what can happen when three plants are carefully trained to become one living masterpiece. The foundation has now been built. From here on, the flowers will tell the rest of the story. A huge thank you to Fast Buds for these amazing genetics and to Plagron for keeping this outdoor project thriving from the very beginning. Three plants. Three root systems. One beautiful masterpiece. 🍑🌿🏆

So it’s day 64 week 10! Dopey is being harvested on Sunday. Now doing a week of flush for her! She smells gorgeous, reminds me of super lemon haze. Really nice lemon/citrus :D can’t wait for harvest day! I will provide an update on the other 2 soon :D Day 67 - Dopey is not ready for harvest, waiting another 1-2 weeks. Dopey and Lazy are looking healthy but Snow White has some leaves with yellow/brown spots - is this sign of leaf septoria?

This is the last week. Every second evening I did an ice water flush. At day 90 she moved from the sunny balcony to the dark basement. I chose and bought a grow tent for me and my wife. So the winter we‘ll be growing our weed for the spring and summer. But actually I love to grow outdoors. Next outdoor season will be only in half a year. For me the arriving of the tent a few days ago gives me the possibility to dry without the smell in the house. Happy legal growing!

Was feeding 2.5 2.5 1.2 per gal flora series with 2.5 calmag ph quickly dropped in run off to 4.7. Im guessing the florakleen had something to do with messing with the buffer. I thought the king tut looked droppy a few days after flush of couse i thought issue was maybe overwater. I skipped one water and over night all plants were much worse. Half the leaves on tut dried out and some on the alien tech. Read up and finally found someone mention to feed 1.3 to 1.5 gal per 5 gal in coco coir per event. I was feeding 1 gallon of water twice a day so went to 1.5 to 2 gal per event twice a day. Underwatering was the issue, cal mag in some, nutrient burn and ph. Ph going in at 6.0 coming out 4.7. I chopped the chem de la creme and the acid as they were not doing well or just stunted badly. Squanch Queen had a lot of calmag issues so added more. Eventually i ended up doing a 1/4 nute 2.5 calmag ro flush to get the ph of run off out of 4.7 range and eventually it has risen to 5.2 to 5.4 in time with .2 ec adjustments. Lots of problems. Have an ro buddy but am going to get a better system. Working on installing diy drain system.

There’s microscopic bugs crawling on my buds! Going to post a grow question about them. No more nutrients, she’s definitely getting close, so let’s use plain water and hope for the best in the next week or two.

Hello This is the end of week 9 and the beginning of week 10 of veg. Got them outside and into the greenhouse last week. I see they have warm up, and all the leaves are facing the sun now. Got them spread out so they can cover their area. Slightly split 1 stem and didn't bury 2 root balls deep enough, so the top branches have to go over the first rung and then under the second. I think I'll try, putting a top net in here instead of the bamboo I've used for the last few years. Gave each plant 2 liters of ph adjusted water and poured it down the stem, so the water will travel down the stem to the root ball, and the drier soil will wick any extra water away and not cause problems for the roots of the plants. Cannabis plants don't like cold, wet, root balls. I'll do some LST next week and take some clones of these smelly plants. Some have the smell of sweet but strong lemony cleaner Some smell a little like desert and earthy. They leave a smell on your fingers you can still smell minutes later. These plants should be really good... is what my experience is telling me. OK. Be Really Cool. Chuck.

Well the end has come to this beautiful strain What can I say it was fun to grow even considering the early problems I had with the yellowing it turned out amazing The smell and taste are out of this world. Tastes very citrucy and sweet. With a super heavy high. Looking forward to curing this one. Onto the next and big up the followers

I thought I would get more yield from the plant. Since the buds were really very thick. But, by the way, I am satisfied by and large.😃

The plants got a big defoliation of a lot of the lower growth in lolipop style fashion, either flipping to flower next week or waiting two weeks. I’ve had to start using neem oil because it seems some little critters are eating my plant leaves. It’s very minimal and small just better to be safe than sorry, currently at day 40 of the Grow. Just moved the light up a few more inches compared to the plants canopy. Seems as if they’re getting a little light stress since I turned the light all the way up to the full 1,000 blast. Same feeding schedule. Let me know if y’all have any tips! Always appreciated

10/14 12 am. Tent 3 tall and strong Tent 1 small and strong. Samples from all of them have been great. 2 pm did not water today. Yesterday I did 2 waterings several hours apart a new technique that works to keep the soil cool 10/15 12:30am Watered all with nutrients. 10/16 6am looking good 4.5 grams nutrient, 0.6ml Purpinator, 0.6ml Liquid KoolBloom this week. 1pm Dark Devil is beginning to show changing colors on her leaves. I didn't defoliate her because I wanted to see the color change. 2pm Colors are amazing I took the little Dark Devil and I have never smelled anything like this, so strong and clean almost like model paint or something. Drying in a cup now I'll check how she changes. So powerful from just a small bud. Straw. Gor. is also growing strong perfect colas now. Tyson NYC desil is strong now. The pistils are thick and yellowing LOTS of resin. 10/17 1am made a video. 11am watering. 10/18 12am water. 4:45am Mixed up MaxiBloom powder. It takes about 2 days for it to dissolve. 4.5 grams nutrient, 0.8ml Purpinator, 0.6ml Liquid KoolBloom 10/20💦💦💦

Week 9 Day 57 (9/11) Things are going well, or so it seems. She looks like she is starting to bulk up at her bud sites. Her pistils are everywhere and I'm hoping to see the buds forming soon. Being a first timer, I have no idea what I'm looking for, but it's still exciting! Temps and humidity have been holding fairly steady. I think I'm to to point of bumping the humidity back some, keeping it below the 60% range. I have a couple VPD charts I'm trying to go by and they give me a range I am trying to keep the temp/humidity in. I fed her last night and she seems happy. Haven't noticed any of the discoloring or anything continuing, so that's good. I added some Alaska Fish Fertilizer to the mix just because I got it for free and wanted to give her a little nitrogen boost because her youngest leaves are kind of pale. I've heard that it's hard to overdo it with it, so figured it was safe enough. It has an NPK of 5-1-1, so I thought the P & K boost might be good too. Day 58 (9/12) Humidity keeps getting a little high, so I busted out a dehumidifier. There is some yellowing on some newer leave serrations, but idk if it is new or I'm just thinking it's new. Day 59 (9/13) Yesterday got a little rough for her! I kicked on the dehumidifier I have before I left for the day, and good thing the wifey was home to check in! Apparently that dehumidifier pumps out some heat! Within a few hours, the tent temp was almost 93F and humidity was nearly below 40%. She was quick to turn it off, crank the exhaust fan, and get the window opened to cool it off. When I turn it on in the future, I'll have to be sure to keep an eye on the room temp. I feel like she is a long way off from being ready, really doubt she will be anywhere near the 70-77 day grow time. That's fine with me, as long as she's happy and filling out, she'll get there eventually. Most other journals I've seen, they don't chop until week 12 or so. I also felt up one of the forming buds a bit, and the smell she left on my fingers is maddeningly delicious, about knocked my socks off. Day 60 (9/14) Pulled her out last night and tried tucking in a bunch of leaves to get more light to some of the lower bud sites. It's wild how many she has. She probably could have used some defoliation, but being an auto (and my first time growing) I held off. Maybe in future grows I'll give it a shot. Doing a better job at LST would probably have helped as well. She's still trucking, starting to see some start of frostiness. Day 61 (9/15) She seems fairly light in the pot, I'll probably try to feed her tonight or tomorrow morning, it just depends on when I get outta school today. I have surgery today, so I'll be here until late so will more than likely just get it mixed up tonight for in the morning. Day 62 (9/16) I mixed her up some feed last night. She's been having some yellowing on her tips and serrations, likely from phosphorus deficiency. Hoping what I mixed up is plenty to stave that off. I mixed it last night and gave it to her this morning after lights on. Her smell has really kicked in, I'm glad I got a filter and exhaust fan or the house would smell amazingly illegal. I was running late this morning and didn't even remember to get a pic of her this morning. I'll try to get one tonight before she goes to bed. Day 63 (9/17) Some of her lower leaves are starting to yellow between veins, showing magnesium deficiency. I almost put some cal-mag in yesterday with her feeding, now I wish I did. I'll wait it out and get her some next time she gets watered, or sooner if she's gotten worse since last night. I feel like she is just gobbling through her food, but honestly idk. I may be just keeping her right at the edge of deficiencies.

Been ghost for a little while but now I’m back. Been dealing with a lot of personal stuff but I've been maintaining my focus on this girl. She’s grown a lot in the past 4 weeks. Did some LST, topping, and some super cropping. Started her outside but brought her inside the tent because she was reaching her full potential. She’s doing great now! I’ve been fighting a fungus gnat infestation but I got it under control now. She’s in her 3rd week of flower and is moving along nicely.

Checkout my Instagram @smallbudz to see the Small budget grow setup for indoor use, low watt, low heat, low noise, step by step. 13/12/2019 - Change the light schedule to 12-12h after 8 weeks of no signs of flowering I think is a photo not and auto. 16/12/2019 - Fed her 1.5l of 6.5PH water with 0,5ml of each: Grow, Bloom and Max, and 1ml of each: Heaven, Alga-mic and Vera, noticed about 10% run off, I use about 1/3 of the nutrient dosage on the chart, to achieve about 200/300PPM (500 scale). 17/12/2019 - Did some defoliation on the lower branches mainly.
