Outdoor Bal's SuperAutoGarden

very interested mate, im a long time photo and dwc grower and due to renovation need some autos to chuck outside, im after some heavy yielding autos, and the 4 i narrowed it down too your growing! what luck!
have you grown the DP or the AX before?....i understand they yeild well?

This is my first auto grow and second grow ever
When I was choosing the strains for this grow I was hoping to find some sativa leaning good yielding autos, and here they are. I want to smoke uplifting and good tasting herb this year:smoke:
From what I read in this forum mostly, I think I chose some of the most suitable strains for my needs.
First I wanted to go all superauto(Chaze, Annapurna, Nirvana Sky), but I also wanted some diversity and maybe different harvest times, with no need to wait until october(photo strains). The superautos are in concept exactly what I was looking for(they had to be invented at some point; thanx to stitch
).
And here I'm doing my "reality check".
It's very interesting to see the difference in how I imagined the garden should be and how it's going to turn out. Last year was a huge learning experience and this year also, with improvements of course(it's the purpose of learning).
I hope to grow between 25-35 ounces of buds, so 3oz per plant on average(which is more than my last year photos!). That would be stellar

Ok, I got some issues chosing the flowering fert, has to be all organic and not too much N inside.
I got a liter of Plagron Alga Bloom(npk 6-12-10), but in my opinion there is a bit too much N, especially for sativas. I will mix it with some of leftover alga PK boost(found out it's an organic/mineral mix) and see what happens.
Has anyone any experience with the alga bloom?
The biobizz bloom was my first choice but couldn't get my hands on it.
Expect an update in some days, the supergirls should be flowering now!
I can't wait:booya:

Today I made some pictures for you guys
Reference pic with phone, like the previous ones:

The highest Chaze is around 2.10m while the others are around 1.70-1.90m, simply astonishing. I was kinda expecting them to grow this big, but when I saw them...well, that was a moment of true happiness
Got them some Plagron AlgaBloom feed so I hope they start flowering any time.
The DP plants are looking ok, they still have to grow some branches and get taller, I expect them to go flowering in three weeks.
Now, the better pictures:

My favorite photo, the sativa-pheno Chaze leaves, a very spicy, slightly minty smell.

The ThinkDifferent is not thinking about flowering.

The bigChaze, had to tie her a bit

StuntedChaze wants to grow some more

I compared today's photos with my last year grow and the superautos blow away the photos I grew before, however the conditions(soil and irrigation) are far better this time.
The sativaChaze and the SCH have very similar leaves, their smell has an interesting effect on me, I almost get scared with their spiciness, really.
This will be some top weed, no doubt!
Stitch, can you say anything about those leaves and the phenos? I'm quite interested.

Hey bro i'm very proud of u and the job u are doing this year with my strains outdoor in europe, it is clear that the plants really appreciate how u treat them, they feel in love with u...
next year listen to me and grow them with more extra space between them, this way you'll get more branchy stuff and more production.
the leaves are based on my super auto stitch0.1 x HAZE that i used to make this cross, but i can't tell too much about it, so on this cross u'll have 3 difference fens because it is an F1 cross so u'll have a hazy type, a sat/ind 50/50 type and a Indi type

And I love the superautosKISS
Of course they would love more space, I promise to give it to them in my next grow.
Before, when I was there, it was so obvious to see the grow area is quite crowded, it's because I was not having a good perspective on the possible size of the plants. My expectations of size are already exceeded and they seem not to have finished their stretch yet.
How much longer until full flowering do you think?
Today I gave them around 3ml/L of AlgaBloom(plagron; 6,12,10) + some(1,5 ml/L) aminoacids and vitamins, because I think they can help against stress from insects and caterpillars.
I probably won't be able to feed them frequently, maybe 2-3 more times(max) in the next 6week time. I think about slightly increasing feed concentration(only bloom fert) for next time and decrease the last feed to 2ml/L + molasses(mid august).
I was really surprised to see leaves of that shape, they look very equatorial(like from the Carribean) to me. I just love that shape and smell, very very interesting.
It's unclear to me how the Chaze changed the number of leaflets during its grow. It can be seen in the previous photos that it developed 7leaflet leaves, but now it's mainly 3 and 5leaflets. Maybe it has some connection with rootgrow, but I encountered a picture on SensiSeeds blog(click) which states this shape originates in ruderalis.
Anyway, strangely interesting.
