June 15: looks really good and will do second round of topping tomorrow. The last 30 days have been cooler than the historic average, and last year was way above average. So, she’s doing great despite cool weather. June 16: adjusted tie downs and watered with soluble seaweed extract. June 17: second round of topping to make 8 colas done this morning. Will do another round in a week or two to get the final 16 cola layout I want. June 20: released tie downs this morning. Looks really good on the last day of spring. Solstice and the photoperiods are right on schedule, unlike my two autos. Made second compost tea as shown in video. Key things are blackstrap molasses (sugar and trace metals), good compost, and I use coco coir for something for the bacteria to physically live on (substrate or matrix). #seedsman420growoff #seedsmanseeds

At the beginning of this week, I have been fighting the gnats, which are less and less now. Just some watering and gradually lowering the light and going to full power. The Orange Hill Special has been filling out great and I must say, she is a pretty plant. With some manual bending and super cropping, I'm bending the longer stalks sideways and we are off. What I actually do is more of an intuitive hybrid between mainlining (where I bend the whole plant 90 degrees at the third week), LST (where I bend branches outward slightly, without tying), HST / Super crop (where I bend the stems 90 degrees with the clips or manually), after which I keep bending outward to SOG and, put the net over to end in SCROG. This same method gave me the canopy in my prize-winning Gelato 33 grow. Check it out if you haven't seen it, it was my first experimental accident that led to beta test of Super Soil mixture 0.7, now we are at Alpha version 1.00 and testing great so far if I say so myself. I haven't seen such lush greens in my own grows, only outdoor. They seem uber-healthy and resilient, with very sturdy stems and leaves. Way more resilient than previous strains I tested in the beta soil. The light is performing, the natural color of it makes everything pop. Mars Hydro has a winner with the SP-3000. Check out their site: www.mars-hydro.com Thank you @MarsHydroLED for letting me test it, hook them up for a great deal or info on their products! Halfway through this week, I took the clips out, AND...... we switched them to go into flowering. After a day the stretch is already visible. I had to bend them again after a couple of days. Now we have almost a tent filling foundation for a maximum result canopy of buds. I was wanting to amend the soil with flowering additions (see recipe in yellow image), but I'm holding it off for two reasons. A/ The leaves are still so green and lush, I think there is an abundance of nutes. B/ @Haoss mentions his suspicions on his OHS grow (@#CannapediaProGrowersCup Orange Hill that very sadly went hermie on him) that nutrition in this phase could have had an influence, after asking what happened to him. I would have loved to see that grow to full harvest. But it makes me a bit cautious. if Haoss (whom I consider to be one of the star growers here) couldn't prevent this, what chance have I? I'm waiting until the girls start asking for nutrients. They'll show me what they need in their own time. For now this soil is the shizzle (also quite literally) and Im happy with how everything is going. I remember much more hassle and steering in the last grow. This grow, even the Gorilla runt seems happy. I now water them 3 liters of water / Perma tea mixture every 4 days, every 3rd watering I don't do the tea. This makes for fewer gnats and this soil seems to hold water nicely, also due to the hydro corn. What I like is there is always some unforeseen circumstance, a tilt of the tables, some battle to be fought which delivers in big harvests or, in worst case, no harvest at all. It makes it more exciting, when your heart is at stake, we pour a lot of love and attention in the ladies. So with hopes, but not too high, we go into flowering. Thank you all for joining me again in this Orange adventure! I hope you all had great weeks, germed seeds, extreme growth and buds bursting with trichomes!! See you next week! Hug Bud PS Sunshine made her first appearance, as she promised on the Gelato 33 grow. She is still a bit camera shy, so her digital alter makes an appearance first, if you all want to see more of her and my other helpers, let me know in the comments. Sunshine will make a real appearance if yall are real nice to her.

The buds on this girl were quite small but they came out veeery dense. The smell wasn't anything special as she was growing but now that she's cured, it smells like a really nice strong indica with hints of citrus. But she was incredibly easy to grow and so quick to recover! Couldn't be happier with the final outcome and really happy about growing this strain!

Salutations, fellow cultivators! Week 2 unfolds with the grace of a symphony, and the tale of my Blackberry Auto continues to captivate. The journey is both an art and a science, and every green leaf is a brushstroke on the canvas of cultivation. Our heroine has found her throne – a final 16L AutoPot. What makes AutoPots the crown jewel of cultivation, you ask? These self-watering wonders provide a dynamic, gravity-fed watering system, ensuring the plant receives precisely what it needs when it needs it. It's the epitome of hands-off perfection, allowing the plant to dictate its own hydration destiny. Transplant day is a ritual, a moment where roots meet Mycor Mix magic. This mix, a blend of mycorrhizae species, becomes the plant's ally, expanding the root system and fostering nutrient uptake. It's like giving my Blackberry Auto a superhero sidekick, enhancing her abilities and resilience. The transplantation dance continues with the application of Aptus Holland Mycor Mix on the roots and surroundings. This isn't just a transplant; it's a ritual of care. Mycor Mix establishes a symbiotic relationship, unlocking nutrients and fortifying the soil with beneficial microorganisms. It's a small act with profound effects, ensuring my plant's journey is supported at its very foundation. As the pot receives its royal guest, the soil is adorned with 75g of Aptus All-in-One pellets (NPK). This powerhouse blend provides a balanced nutrient feast, a banquet for optimal growth. The soil is further enriched with Aptus Micro Mix, a harmonious supplement that fine-tunes the nutrient symphony, ensuring every note is in perfect balance. Post-transplant, the ritual concludes with a nourishing bath – my Veg Aptus Recipe. This elixir, carefully concocted, ensures a smooth transition for Blackberry Auto. It's not just water; it's a potion that whispers the promise of health, strength, and vitality. The week embraces low-stress training, a dance where leaves are gently bent to shape the plant's architecture. Blackberry Auto, the prima ballerina, responds with joy. This technique not only encourages lateral growth but also maximizes light exposure, orchestrating a symphony of photosynthesis. As I witness this botanical ballet, I'm reminded that cultivation is a dialogue between caretaker and plant. Together, we embark on a journey where each element, from AutoPot elegance to Mycor Mix finesse, plays a vital role. Stay tuned for the continued saga of Blackberry Auto – a story told leaf by leaf, in every graceful twist and turn. 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

Ms Mia Wallace went to town and blew the f up. Lots of leaf growth but no sign of bud spots- I know it’s early days tho. Watered with half serving of bloom nutes. Not the ideal nute mix I think, but served me well last grow. Also, as I turned up the light to max power, I noticed heat stress so i turned it down and successfully installed the worlds most eco friendly trellis - one minute- hockey net - next minute - weed trellis. It’s called upcycling boys and girls. I know it’s shit, I’m gonna reinstall it one more 1/4 ass so it’s a full half-ass scrog. Point is, the canopy is flat, pushed that puppy down so there’s more distance. Light back to 100%. Humidity was a little higher under the canopy, even with the dehumidifier, so I put my inline fan back in (was just a booster in-line fan before) and the temp and humidity is dropping. Saw a little bug. Hit the top & bottom canopy layer with light neem oil spray then incecticidle soap. I saw a small critter so I put Diatomaceous Earth on a upside down Tupperware lid. Don’t know if that works. Last time I did a top coat of the stuff on top of the soil - something happened and bad nute burn. Anyone know anything about this? Finally, also tied down a bunch of branches to let the light hit the lower areas. Tune in next time, where I’ll show you how to make a trellis from a pair of spandex Leggings , Peanut butter and a single streamer from the handlebars of a kids bicycle. Keep your buds green, and your grow room clean.

Very hard to control temperature and humidity in tent. It’s a small 70x70x160cm on the balcony so it’s prone to fluctuations to outdoor conditions Light increases temp in tent by 4-5 degrees C I started a half dose of AN Micro (15 drops in a litre)

420 Fastbuds FBT2303 Week 5 These two girls are starting to transition into flower very nice. Don't mind the dropping in the leafs my lights just came on. Over all haven't done really much besides another defoliation and lollipoped them taking off the lower 3 nodes. Should allow them plenty of light through flower and air to prevent moisture build up at pot level. All in all Happy Growing

I really love this strain. It's very powerful and growing is quite simple. These are seeds that I've won on GD from Dinafem and I've to say thanks to both. Dinafem for the perfect seeds and GD where I've learned a lot about growing this lovely plant!
