Plant has come to a finish and had about 30 % amber trichs. White widow auto came down exactly 13 weeks from seed and is nicely done. Pine smells all the way , looking forward to testing when dry. :) The weight is in and it's a record for me. I froze over 400g of fresh bud to dry ice and press into rosin . 2 ounces of this was top flower the rest all popcorn bud but no sticks . The rest of it dried was 21 ounces and thats my personal best from a single plant let alone an automatic variety. She smokes well but buds appearence is a little loose and foxtaily however its all flower and 21 oz of it to boot :)

This strain was everything the breeders promised. All the buds were purple and some fan leaves turned pink. She isn’t really dripping in resin but I still needed gloves during trim.

Graduated, and am off from work for a few weeks, so went overboard on photos. Plant is doing well, leaves are starting to turn yellow (strain trait). Can't wait for the harvest and being able legally gift my xmas ornaments to my cousins during our "cousins walk" at our family xmas party.

This should be up to week 2-3 of flower, where the Mimosa x Orange Punch, which had the earlier Mutation, started herming on the mutated part, which i noticed a bit too late and it pollinated some of the other buds, i cut all of the affected bud sites of, in the end the furthest away runtz got pollinated but the others luckily barley did and only had like 5-10 seeds in total.

Wow going into the 3. Week of Flower. The plants have exploded since switching to 12/12 . #7 have close to doubled in size and are easily filling the second Trellis layer. #6 has also gotten bigger but it seems to have filled in more then shot up in height.. Will do a big defoiliate next Saturday. Will take everything below the first trellis including branches on #7  that do not reach the second trellis Turned IR to 75% 9-25-22 Feed the plants , they are looking great, but are ready for some trimming. Evening update: really don't know why but checked my soil this evening before lights turned off for the day and discovered it was bone dry. Watered the plants . Sure hope it starts cooling down soon. Temp in tent was upper 80's today, a tad warmer then wanted. 9-26-22 Plants seemed to have plenty of water left this morning, but might need checked on tonight. I am surprised that the plants are still stretching. Cheezy Puff & Cookies &Stash are much taller then the POG. The POG is more of a compact flower compared to the other two. The Flowers on all 3 are developing beautifully. 9-27-22 Day 17 It is amazing how much taller the Cheezy Puff as well as the Grandpa's Stash are compared to the POG All 3 look extremely happy and healthy and are developing plenty of bud sites. Feed plants this morning 9-28-22 Day 18 Is it only me that gets excited everyday when it's time to open the tent and feed the girls? Flowers are looking great but are ready for a trim! The incoming weather has me a little concerned, woke up to tent having RH of 70% closed the window and hope that helps 9-30-2022 day 20 The last two days have been tough on me and the geow. We got smashed by hurricane Ian and have been without electricity for the last 48 h with no end in sight. Opened the tent the last 2 days hoping the plants will get at least some daylight. With all the humidity in the air, the tent was at rh 98% when I opened it first this morning. Even after hours being opened the RH is still hovering around 75% Hope we get electricity back in the next 24h

This grow gets a ten out of ten from me on behavioral attributes on how she grew through out all the stages of life. Vegging was an absolute pleasure, she thrived off the 125g of amendments, cal-mag, and kelp all the way to day 30. Once I noticed flower development I proceeded to give her, her first feeding of grow and bloom nutrients both at the same time @ a diluted mixture of 25% then proceeded to increase increments as needed into flower, cutting out the grow after two feedings. She has been to date one of the cheapest grows I've ever had, all that's left is to harvest, cure and smoke for the final conclusion on 3 bears auto from Mephisto. Hats off to the boys over there! All this did was get me excited to grow the remaining Mephistos I have stored away!

Day 56 Veg from Seed Crazy what a scrog method could do in just 1 week 🔥 Definitely going to preform this method again in my future grows. Today was the last day of veg I prep my reservoir for flowering stage (nutrients mix with 5Gal spring water) and flip my lights to 12/12 Also collected a few clones from each plant giving me the opportunity for a mother plant or 2 then have a full run in the near future ⛽️

So this is the Tear Down week. The timing of it makes it so i will need to the harvest flag in a few days when I can weight and test the plants. I have included the Cleaning, and Cutting and some Root Porn. I will make the harvest post in about 4-5 days, when I can trim these plants. There is a lot of Plant here. I got way more than I was expecting. I don't have a scale that measure this amount of plant, without taking like 10 measurements and then adding them together. So I will just be posting the dry weight. I will post the wet weight as dry weight * 1.65. Autopots: Wow, what a great product. I have been blown away by how well and how easy it was to work with them. They really did solve the watering issues. Excellent product. If you are a beginner, start with Autopots. -= Lessons Learnt =- - Overdrive the air to your Autopots. In my control plant, I used a small rectangle air stone (instead of a standard air dome). This lead to root rot and some other issues, it also put significantly less air into the water. The root rot, give the material for the Brown Algae to grow. Using a huge Air-disc-Air-Stone would be an excellent combo to mix in with the air dome itself. Something like this: https://www.amazon.ca/Pawfly-Diffuser-Suction-Hydroponics-Aquarium/dp/B01MY3AQ33 at the bottom and the air-dome on top of it, will be what I do with my next experiment. - Air stone in the reservoir. I had two instances where algae grew into the res. An air stone would have helped. It would have also helped my control plant get less root rot. Given the amount that the air-domes and air sources got engulfed, having the water have more o2 in it would have only been beneficial. - Don't grow 6 plants in a 4x4. Since my control plant was about 1/8th the size of the others, I think I could have grown 5 in the shape of a 5 (on a 6 sided dice)⚄ This placement would give a much more spaced canopy for airflow and more importantly light. The sides of some of the plants were lighter green and produced larf due to lack of light penetration. - This tent was on 19-5 schedule. This worked out very well for this strain. After every lights on, they were in the praying position, so this strain was able to recover in that 5hrs off. If I had more seeds, I would run these again, and try 20-4. I think this strain could handle it. All for all, I think I'm going to 19-5 as my default timing. This kept up a solid DLI. - Staring at .9EC (really .7 EC cause my water here is .2 EC) Then bumping up at .1 a week, until 1.6EC worked out VERY well. I experimented on this crop all the way up to 1.9EC, which burnt the tips of this plant. I think if I did this strain again, I would do 1.6EC until 3-4 weeks left then crank it to 1.9. It did plump them up when I went to 1.9, however it left them looking rough. Bulk was added though. - Sticking to 6.0PH for all of veg, and 2 weeks into flower worked great. The plant had solid and consistent color and leaf shape . The plant's did get hurt, due to some issues (as noted on the weeks). I switched to 6.5 PH in the last 3-4 weeks and it helped them recover, and plump up noticeably. -VPD. The #1 thing I focused on was VPD. I keep it .9kpa range, as best as humanly possible. It was honestly, HUGELY noticeable compared to my other grows. I know truly understand the value of properly dialed in VPD. This is the one lesson that will stick with me forever. - Super-cropping: On the plants I give the chiropractic treatment too, had much thicker stems as much larger channel internally. I did this treatment to 4 of the 6, and the 4 that had it done has larger buds and recovered from defoliation faster. TLDR; VPD is king. Super-cropping is worth the time. Keeping PH and EC dialed in were all wins. Autopots kick ass.

Hey Guys! Super excited this week! I've really been wanting to try growing outdoors, so I built a cheap hoop house! Got most of this stuff for the frame from Lowes under 300$. All the soil products I got from GrowGreenMI. Some really cool people out there. One thing I'm super worried about is drainage. Right now those holes are about 4 feet deep and they've got about 4 inches of water in them already. What's been cautioned is that, eventually, about 2 months in these plants roots will grow and reach the bottom and cause root rot to form. One of the biggest things I was trying to be wary of was causing root rot. This was also the biggest precautionary measure I took when mixing the soil. Adding the extra perlite, coco, and clay pebbles. Best advice right now is to build the soil up on the holes another 16 to 18 inches and possible stick a PVC pipe down to the lowest drainage point of the hole to allow some of that natural occurring water to evaporate. Any advice anyone has on it is welcomed! Making a compost tea for the soil outdoors, will probably put 2 cups in each RDWC bucket as well and let that do it's magic for a day or so before nutrient change. Raised the bed about 14 inches as well! All the seeds sank! Off to a good start! Lol

The calmag deficiency has improved significantly and the plants are now putting all their energy into the flowers. In the meantime, no new eggs are forming, which makes us very happy :)

A lot has happened this week. After I watered the nettle manure, some of the leaves turned a little yellow. There seems to have been enough nitrogen left in the soil, so this week there was only pure water. Unfortunately, my supply of rainwater is pretty empty, so I topped up the tank with tap water. After I noticed that the roots were already coming out of the drainage holes, I thought it was time for another repotting. As you can see, the roots have spread well. This time the plant will be planted in the 55-litre end pot. I'm using a fabric pot from the brand Gronest. The soil is the same as for the first repotting. Here is the nutrient profile again. Floragard TKS 2 N 210 mg/L - P 240 mg/L - K 270 mg/L - Mg 70 mg/L - S 150mg/L After repotting, I defoliated the plant a little and attached plant hooks. I have looked for inspiration on the Internet and am trying to build up a good basic structure. As the pot size has changed, the watering quantity also had to be increased. I tried 8 litres this time every 2 to 3 days and nothing leaked out at the bottom. The weather was better again this week. The daytime temperatures fluctuate between 17 and 22 degrees. I'm happy with the weather so far, but it could still get a bit warmer. Especially at night.
