You mean where I ordered from? Just realized I put this weeks update on the Auto Mazar journal. So quick blurb. Potted her today. She's getting quite big already so figure 2-3 days recovery and I'll top her. No much to show so only a few pics.

Thanks Kingjoe. Yours is looking nice and strong, good color. Good job on topping and training her. I'm really impressed with this Barney's strain. Good growth, strong looking branches, humongous fan leaves, some as big as my hand. Am going to have to go to 3 liters of nutes tomorrow. Two just doesn't wet the entire pot anymore.
Was just skimming you journal and see you had/have questions about growing in coco. Go to my Afghan Ryder Kush Auto & Pakistan Ryder Auto post no. 38. Bedroom Gardner turned me on to this. Very informative and well explained. Also check the other vids on his channel especially the vid "The first 4 inches". The main difference between the reg AN nutes and COCO tribe, as far as I can tell, is the coco just has extra calmag. For some reason coco and LED lights seem to draw larger amount than soil. I use reg nutes and add 1.5 to 2 ml of calmag every watering.
The main thing I've learned is what works great for one is not necessarily going to preform the same for everyone. Experiment a little every grow to find what does and doesn't work for you. I started with soil and did not have great success where as others are pulling pounds. Coco amazed me on my Auto Mazar grow. Never did I expect that kind of weight.

Thanks I will give her a read . Tank you for your time bill.

I hope you get some solid numbers and great smoke. After I use all my Pro mix hp up I'll be switching to coco.

[KingJoe83]

Any pointers on them mine is fromm barney farms are they short plants? Also tips are brown and dry . I flushed to ph 6 week 1 flower now. Waiting for it to dry again going to add 1 litre with advance ph perfect Nutes three part series going to go 1 ml each with 2 ml call mag. Thoughts? Pointers for it are welcomed

 

[Bill the Cat]

Back again finally. Have been battling an unknown problem or problems for the past few weeks. Leaves started curling under and got very leathery feeling. Tried raising/lowering lights, cut back on nutes, cut back on waterings, Changed feeding schedule, tried with both sections of light on and just bloom. The temps were in the mid 70's. The plant still looks like crap, but the flower production is doing ok. Quite frosty but very airy, so hope they will fill out nicely or have been stressed too much. The first four pics are a progression of how the problem developed.

Today's pics.

Peace

 

[Bill the Cat]

Hi all. Plant is still horrible looking. Has really had a tough life. All the above problems and then Thursday my vent fan seized up. Temps spiked at about 95 degrees, ouch. Buds are putting out tons of trichs and white hairs but buds are very airy. Hopefully they will start to bulk up.

Back next week.

 

[Bill the Cat]

Another week in the books. Not much to report. Have given her a last light feeding. I figure another 2 weeks to cut. Never did figure out my problems. Don't think it's going to give much of a harvest. When it's done am going to take a break for the summer. Figure to start next grow in August. That way it should be done before I go to Amsterdam.
Here's pics.

Plant came down today. Will give a final weight when dry.

Starting a new journal for Auto Kryptonite by Pyramid Seeds.
