Nutrients Dichoti’s Combo test

[Dichoti]

Time line:
Sprout -January 18
Moved to autopots - February 3
Total elapsed time at this point : 54 Days

Strain info:
Fastbuds Gelato Auto
Advertised strain growth/ flower time: 9 weeks (63 days)
(We’re sitting at something like 7 And a half weeks now. The smaller plant in the Rain Science bag may actually finish within a week of the advertised time frame. She’s fattened up quite nicely over the past few days. There’s no way the big girl will finish in that time period. Her size says she’s a 12-16 week girl. The first auto I ever grew out was a Fastbuds Gorilla Glue #4... She gave me something like 12+ oz in like 11 and a half weeks, So if the big girl wants to take her time, And really is 26+% THC, Then I won’t complain too much.)

Advertised strain height: 40 inches (70-100cm)
(I’ll dig out my tape measure this evening, But I’m certain the big girl is getting close to this at her tallest point. The smaller girl looks like she’s 18-20“ tall.)
Advertised strain harvest: XL.
(I hope so. )

Frankly, I haven't seen aggressive roots come through a felt pot like that even when there's nothing but just felt and medium. That's some mighty good genetics with some pretty favorable grow conditions. Maybe we should give Prescription Blend the credit (or blame)?

Perhaps lol. I’ll blame PB and Fastbuds lol

Apparently she likes her spot under 3 autocobs.

-- holy fek! Any bigger and she'll be slapping your ass when you walk by the tent! .....Nice work mate....
No doubt, you got a bit of a throw-back pheno', not so uncommon really,...And some breeders don't work the line deeply enough to eliminate the occasional monster long cycle pheno's out very well..
She's certainly loving the nutes, yields will be worth the wait I'm betting... She'll look good on the PB FaceBook page!
have you thought about doing some supercropping? A few stem bends here and there will serve you well I think,.. It's early enough to have some of those side nugg's turn into mini-cola's instead...

I was planning on doing it this evening, Or Tomorrow after band practice. It’ll have to be soon, though, otherwise I won’t have room.

Part two to this, Since I’ve had enough caffeine to be functional:
I kind of about halfway expected a difference between the two, One from the difference in pot size, And the other because the FB Gelato Auto hasn’t really been around for that long of a long period of time. I’m not going to complain about it, though. I love the “throwbacks”. Out of the last 3 pack of blackberry kush I got from FB, Two were the typical blackberry, and one was just a straight up blueberry auto. Smell, taste, aesthetic... it took me back to the 90s, hiding out behind metal venues and toking with whoever came out the stage door Haha

... pot size is certainly a factor, giving the big'un the root space to crank on the bulk! But in Autopots and coco, you know what can happen regardless of the pot size! I think you got a real Mutt & Jeff pheno' pair here,... nice to have a fast finisher to hold you over while the beast rolls across the finish line -
I like surprise good pheno's too! Last year my Citrus Noir was an atypical aroma profile, all metallic citrus and aromatic woods with gob-smacking potency.... My luck with this in general is pretty mixed though! The photo's outside, I had an Orange juice (Dinafem; Tangie really) and their PAK (pineapple aroma) that were both total strikes on their aromas -...PAK was just plain mediocre across the board, very disappointing...

Broke out my tape measure. The big girl is 44” tall from the coco to the top of the tallest bud.
So, now some time for some whimsical thinking... a grower on another site got like 4.5 oz off of one that was 27 inches tall.
Going by the goofy, half math in my head, That would mean that if this girl fills out like that one, she could/should/would give me somewhere around 10-12oz.
Do I think she will?
Maybe?
If she fills out like her sister, than yes. If she continues with smaller buds all over, She’d probably be a 5 - 6oz plant. Nothing to complain about there.

The faster finisher already had me drooling once lol.
You should check out the purple lemonade strain from Fastbuds if you like aromas... I grabbed a nug out of my jar and squeezed a little bit to see how firm it was, And was Pleasantly surprised. It actually smells like sweet lemonade tastes, If that makes any sense.
