Friends, as some of you may not know, “2nd time around Candy Auto” is named 2nd time because my puppies ate the first plant. I am so glad I grew another @Divine Seed Candy Auto because she is getting fat and smelling up my backyard. According to @DivineSeed Candy Auto my plant should have thick side buds as well AND it does. I tried to capture a few side pictures of my buds so you could see them. I am quite impressed with this plant. I am in the 5th week of flowering, which equates to 35 days. According to @DivineSeeds, Auto Candy needs 60 days minimum of flower time. As usual, I clipped off a bud so I could get some close up pics of her. I smelled the bud and just like @Divine Seeds boasts, it has a flowery/sweet smell. Miss Candy Auto is truly a beautiful scent. In addition, she is extremely sticky to the touch. Take a look at the close up pictures I took with my Max-see magnifier!! It is just about time to start flushing her. Stay tuned to next week to see how 2nd Time Around Candy Auto is doing! As always, Be Happy!! Comments and Likes are appreciated!! Susquihanna

Grow diary 11 Stage 4 Days 31-40 Day 31 Turned power up to 85% on the mars hydro ts1000. Mines one of the old ones you need to stick a screw driver in to alter it. Day 36 Removed the single finger fan leaves and the 1st 3 fingered leaves. Day 39 Removed the 4 fan leaves from where she was topped last week. The start of this stage we hit a heat wave, day after day of heat. I had my humidifier on most of the 9 days. The tent didn't hit the temps I thought it would so that means I have my loft under a bit better control. The plant really kicked into gear this week, around day 34 she started to explode in growth. So far I have only done some lite defoliation by removing some of the 1st leaves that weren't getting any light anymore. I think the kosher cake is the 2nd nicest looking one in the grow. TEMP Max 32.2 Avg 26.5 Min 21.9 Humid Max 71.2% Avg 58.4% Min 50.3% VPD Max 2.32 Avg 1.44 Min 0.85

Week 15 going good…not bad …switching to bloom nutrient… and did a ton of defoliating to loosen up the canopy hopefully they won’t grow too much when I flip them to 1212 in a week I’ve seen these plants three times the size. Hopefully I can stunt that growth during the initial stretch by switching to Bloom nutrients early. Defoliating a week before flipping. I may decide to top them more but I probably won Do I have to type here for it to be green this is crazy. I’ve done more than a paragraph now at this point it’s kind of weird that it’s not green be green what the hell can it still not be green

Now I see why they call it "Fat Bastard." It's now the tallest after being the smallest in the tent. Sheesh! Black Strap colors are just amazing. Peach Crescendo needed some more light cause of its height. Had to put it on a bucket so it's canopy can reach the other girls. My mistake. But we gotta keep mo along.

Greetings, fellow green enthusiasts! Week 3 unfolds like a crescendo in the cultivation symphony, and my Blackberry Auto is not merely growing – she's flourishing into a botanical masterpiece. Join me in this chapter of lush greenery, where every leaf tells a story of meticulous care and bountiful growth. A monumental shift occurred this week as I sensed the roots had embraced their space, and with that confidence, the AutoPot Aquavalve was turned on. It's a momentous occasion; from now on, my Blackberry Auto dictates her own hydration destiny. The Aquavalve ensures a precise, gravity-fed watering system, allowing the plant to drink at her leisure. It's a botanical utopia where hydration meets autonomy. As a gesture of extra love, I treated my thriving Blackberry Auto to a Nutrispray shower. While not a necessity, it's my way of pampering her with a nutrient-rich mist – a spa day for the botanical queen. Every droplet whispers, "You're cherished, and your journey is celebrated." The dance of low-stress training persists, a ballet where leaves are gently coaxed into the perfect formation. Blackberry Auto, the prima donna of this green theater, responds with unparalleled elegance. Each bend not only shapes her structure but also encourages a bushier, more productive plant. It's a dialogue of symbiosis, where I guide her growth, and she graciously accepts the choreography. Blackberry Auto's aesthetic prowess is on full display – her color is a vibrant tapestry, and her structure an architectural marvel. It's not merely a prediction; it's a prophecy of a beautiful, robust plant reaching towards the zenith of its potential. Each leaf is a stroke of nature's brush, creating a masterpiece before our very eyes. As I share this journey, I extend my heartfelt gratitude to the creators of the genetics – thank you, Fast Buds, for gifting us Blackberry Auto. To my sponsors who make this journey possible, your support is the fertilizer for this green endeavor. A tip of the hat to Grow Diaries for providing a platform to document and share the magic. And to the community, your camaraderie adds depth to this horticultural narrative. Together, we cultivate not just plants but a shared passion for the botanical world. Stay tuned, green comrades, for the forthcoming chapters of Blackberry Auto's odyssey. The journey continues, and each leaf unfurls a new verse in the poetic saga of cultivation. Genetics Blackberry Auto @Fast_Buds Food - @aptusholland @aptus_world As always thank you all for stopping by, for the love and for it all , this journey of mine wold just not be the same without you guys, the love and support is very much appreciated and i fell honored and blessed with you all in my life

08/21/2018 Day 1 week 3 Starting the week with second set of leaves,1st real leaves single leaves, second set is 3. It looks like one of the seedling leave is fading?.. Watching, maybe add nutes ? this week 08/22/2018 First root touching water! Here come the roots!🙏 for good week. Not sure when I add nutes. Maybe mid week.

Que pasa familia, vamos con la tercera semana de floración de estas FBA2506 de FastBuds. De las 5 plantas, retiré una y me quede con 4 , preselección. La tierra que utilizamos que está en la publicación anterior es top crop all mix, Por supuesto el ph se mide en cada riego y se mantiene en 6.2, regando cada 48 horas e intentando mantener la humedad en torno al 50 %. Las flores ya están progresando y están cogiendo las 4 un tono morado bastante curioso. Un ejemplar está un poco sobrefertilizado, es la única con la que me corto para alimentar. Las próximas semanas vamos viendo cómo florecen y avanzan. Hasta aquí todo, Buenos humos 💨💨💨

Transplant time! Got these girls into a three gallon container with added mycos and bacteria. My custom mix is coco and perlite with added amendments, worm Castings and purple cow soil. I add dolomite lime on top and mix it in. They got a small watering.

The weeks have been progressing smoothly. They all continue to fatten and get more dense. My feed schedule oddly has switched from every 3 days giving them 3 liters each, to now every 4 days, I give them liters each. 3 liters seems to be the sweet spot for these 10 gallon pots with this particular strain.

Gorilla Zkittlez has one plant that looks to have a huge stock, but next to no bud mass, while the other lacks as much girth of the stem but has the massive colas. Smells are very sweet smelling.
