Hello everyone again. Want to get this going earlier than later so here I go:

This is my 3rd grow now. Just bought 30 seeds and dropped a few of them here. I use i49seeds. I know it is not sponsored, but I have always had great success with their seeds.

Keeping this inital post as short as I can but as detailed as I can. We are at weeks 1.5 and 2.5 with these girls.

Strains: Auto Bubblegum #1, Auto Blueberry #1, Auto AK-47 #2, Auto Blue Cheese #2 x 2, Pheno G-13

My seedling and veg tent is a 24x24x60 Vivosun. It is outfitted with a man made 6 bulb fixture and has 6-60W grow bulbs attached. For the first week. All seedlings receive 2 blue spectrum lights before transitioning to 1 blue and 1 grow and then finally in line with the older girls and I run all 6-60s at grow. I don't ever use thr flower setting just an FYI. I think it's trash. But that's me

They get watered by spray bottle with 1/4 tsp gallon mix of FF Grow Big in their first week and then once moved to their forever homes, they get it poured right around the middle of the pot (my soil is always damp but not wet before transplanting so there is little need to water the entire container immediately)

Here's a little about the strains:

Blueberry Auto:

Genetics/Roots:
Afghani Indica, Thai Sativa, and Lowryder Ruderalis 85% Indica 15% Sativa

Notables: This is a unique year round harvest potential strain, with a possibility for 1-2 extra harvests a year
It won the '00 Cannabis Cup from High Times Magazine (eeeeeee)

THC: 20%
Flower: 8-10 weeks
Height: 30 in
Yield: 16 Oz per meter squared
Flavor: Vanilla, Berry, Blueberry

Bubblegum Auto:

Genetics/Roots:
Developed in the 90s (good times) BBLGum original and Ruderalis mix. It is Indica dominant

THC: 18%
Flower: 8-10 weeka
Height: 35 in
Yield: 14-18 Oz per square meter
Flavor: Strawberry, candy, sweet

Notables/Pest/Consideration:
Mold and rot susceptible, be sure not to over water this plant

AK-47 Auto:

Genetics/Roots:
Originated in Russia after WWII. Cross of 5 strains- Mexican Sativa, Thai Sativa. S.American Sativa, Afghani Indica, and a Ruderalis of unknown origins.
1999 2nd place winner High Times Cup
2010 1st place winner Toronto Canna Cup

THC: 20%
Flower: 6-8 weeks
Height: 24-28 in
Yield: 12-18oz p square meter
Flavor: Earthy, Skunk, Pungent

This is my second grow of this I have some 1 month cured I am smoking now. Very Skunk, very Pungent and Earthy. Do not need a lot of this to feel good...

Blue Cheese Auto:

Genetics/Roots:
Cheese, Blueberry, Skunk, and Ruderalis
It is Indica dominant

THC: 16%
Flower: 10-12 weeks
Height: 24-41 inches (my last one was 30)
Yield: 11-14oz per square meter
Flavor: Peppery, Spice, Cheese, Berries

I have her curing now. 3 weeks in. She never lost her scent through all of drying and curing. She smells the house up when I burp.

G-13 Pheno:

Genetics/Roots:
Indica Dominant. Heresay is that this is a super potent strain that was developedby the government at a top secret US research facility in Mississippi in the late 1960s for government mind control purposes. It is said that a tech leaked it to the streets in the 80s (I'm an 82 girl myself) and here we are today

THC: 23%
Flower: 10-12 weeks
Height: 35-43 inches
Flavor: Berry, Earthy, Pungent, Pine, Mint, Woody

Grow Medium/Potting:

Seedlings all go into a mix of coconut coir, peat moss and vermiculite and are fed with seedling FF Grow Big nutes.

Seedlings are, as aforementioned, only fed with a spray bottle at first.

They are grown in 4-6 in pots for up to 2 weeks before moving to 3 gallons self water reserve plastic pots. This will be their forever home unless they are phenos who will move from 3 to 5 to 8 before they are harvested.

When potted, I use FF Ocean Forest and add earthworm castings. After 2 weeks, I supplement in Happy Frog Fert.

Nutes:
FF Grow Big, FF Buds and Blooms Feed, FF Tiger Bloom Fert, and Happy Frog Fruits and Blooms Fertilizer

Methodology and Training:
TBD still

Pests and Such:
Tented indoors, cat in another room. Gnat and fly sticky in tent just in case.

Temp /Humidity:
I want it to feel like Florida in July. 85 degrees and 70-75% RH
Water bowl or multiple bowls added if necessary, monitors set up on feed shelf for temp/humidity.


That's all for now, baby will wake up soon and need Mama. Here's some pics. Hope you follow and I can follow you on both our journeys. Happiest growing!!

Well Tuesday will be 2 weeks for Bberry and Bblgum so they will be moving to their forever home within the next few days...couple more leaves to pop up first...

The others will be 2.5 and 3 weeks on Thursday! (I was gonna drop 3 and and then decided to drop 2 more a few days later)
Happy Birthday girls! :happy-birthday:

Ak47 auto has always moved faster than blue cheese, out grew her by 6 inches last grow. Yield was right about the same though because I had pulled AK 2 weeks early, give or take.
G-13 is a fast moving pheno. She is gonna be a big girl.
See what happens with the other 2!

@West Hippie you know, space is limited when you have a 21 mo. Autos are fun to flip real fast and I get a nice varietal on top of them being space friendly. I'm stay at home now, so I need to do something other than water my vegetable gardens and clean house and play Lucille Ball. This is something I'm good at, I love doing, and that makes me happy so here I am 7 deep in plants, 28 deep in seeds with 3 toads, 1 cat, and a partridge in a pear tree....:woohoo:
 
I hear that , plus the rewards .
I’ve got 2 kids from there 8 grandkids oh and from there 7 great grandchildren one on the way . I guess you kids are what really keeps us old farts alive .

Absolutely, I mean I throw a pheno in there every now and then to mix it up and challenge myself...as for that family, just wonderful. Sounds like nothing but lots of love and a lot of headaches ❤ he has lifted me to places I never thought I could be.
 
These two are competing w each other now...AK had a good start on Blue but not anymore!!

Happy growing!

G-13 pheno is gliding past Auto Blue Cheese #2...that Blue is always late to the party but she shows up when she gets there! Blue wanted to be dropped in OF a little sooner but she is happy now that she's in there

Reference Point:

These were close to the end of my AK-47 Round #1 and Blue Cheese Round #1 from my 2nd grow (Baby Ammy girl is the other in the tent, AK was taller by 5 inches) Although not cloned, they are seeds from the same manufacturer. I'm curious to see the difference between the grows.
