INTRO- hey everyone I have decided to start another grow journal for my moby dick XXL auto grow. This is my first auto grow ever, but I have practiced lst with photos and I think I have a good game plan to maximize the yeild off this plant. I plan on doing as little defoliation as possible. I am very excited for this grow and have heard amazing things with growing these autos. My first grow journal was meant to be grown in a space bucket , this plant will get too big for my bucket so I will be starting it off in there any moving it into s grow tent when it gets too big. I just wanted to do a second journal instead of adding to my mint choc og one, I just want to keep them separate.
STRAIN INFO- moby dick XXL from Dinafem .its a sativa dominant 75% sativa 25% indica It’s a cross of white widow XXl auto and haze XXl auto. It’s a big yielding auto 70-230g yeild , I think I can get closer to the 150g range it says it flowers in 80days
MEDIUM/AMENDMENTS- so I am sticking with my trusty local shops own . Homegrown hydroponics organic supersoil , I absolutely love this stuff. Until I make my own supersoil I’m just gonna use this . It’s in a 3 gal fabric pot , I used 4 gal f medium in my 3 gal pot ( go figure eh) my food of choice is gaja green organics, I amend my soil with 2 TBS per gal of medium , I use a 75% all purpose 4-4-4 and 25% power bloom 2-8-4 for veg , so that’s 6tbs of 4-4-4 and 2 tbs of the 2-8-4 .this was mixed right into the medium, I filled the pot half way and put a solo cup in it, then I filled around the cup to the top , then I carefully removed the solo cup to leave a solo cup size hole, I put my supersoil without amendments into this hole , just so my seed doesn’t get overloaded , even thoe it takes a good week before anything is broken down and becomes available for the roots to take up,
I water ph’d between 6.5-6.8 but I try to stay closer to 6.8 because microbial life prefers a neutral ph to thrive.
CURRENT ENVIRONMENT- this plant is going to start off in my space bucket grow space for now , I have 1 hacked 23 w 6500k led light with the dome taken off. There’s a seedling heat mat under the grow space, the light is just to add more heat , I have a solo cup on top of the spot where the seed is to keep humidity up.
This is my first time growing autos so I am very excited to see what I can come up with in this grow , so don’t be shy to jump into conversation , so let’s pull up a chair and come along for the ride lady’s and gents
This is probably the most simple yet best resulting amendment I have used , as far as simplicity nothing is easier ( some people don’t even ph their water with this stuff and get good results , I am too ocd to let that go)
6tbs 444 and 2tbs 284
This stuff is really nice soil . Before I uses gaja green I used bottle salt based nutes , I didn’t have to feed my plants for 2 months with this stuff.
Tharr she be lad, let’s hope she comes up for a breath in the next day or two
I’ve used a few fabric pots and these are the best ones I can get locally. I would really like to try some geopots, I need a couple custom made ones to fit my micro grow box I plant in doing , just a little test myself project , fabric pot will be the way to go to not choke out the root zone like plastic pots do
This is her new home for now
So as you know I am new to autos so any help is welcome , I hope we can lean off each other and hopefully walk out of this a little more confident and with a decent yeild off this girl , most of my plants are indica so this be a nice addition to my selection of medicine.
Thanks for stopping by , I appreciate everyone of you who takes the time to read my journals and who comments them, you guys have made me a better cultivator , and honestly restored my faith in humanity. Have a good day . And happy growing everyone
