Outdoor first time auto. a halfassed outdoor experiment. auto bubblicious, and random auto outdoor mix.

[opi8250]

Good day all!


With my first post/journal, i figure this would be a good time to introduce myself, and my 2 beautiful new babies, Brena, and Magdalina. (Yea, i know, im a dork.)

Ive never grown autos before, and happened to come across some auto bubblicious seeds the other day. I have read both good and bad things about this strain, and i was horribly unprepaired, so this is going to be one big half assed experiment.

I have a hoophouse style greenhouse full of tomatoes and such that the little ladies will live in. Both were planted directly in 5 gallon buckets, filled with whatever the hell my girlfriend had left over from her garden. Fish compost, peat, and some other stuff.

Not planning on feeding them much. Ill let the plants let me know if they need anything. Maybe a small shot of some bloom juice later on... and im a big fan of molassis, so ill do that as well, but for now, nature shall take its course. Ive always had good luck thay way.

Please keep in mind, i dont always roll like this... im just having some fun this year, and dont wanna take it to seriously. I just like plants

One question... they were planted 3 days ago, today they are above ground and looking to the sun... does that make this day 1, or was that planting day?

Thanks for reading, i look forward to sharing

Day one is the day they break soil.Welcome to our forum and if you need help just ask.There is plenty of good info in our info threads on the home page that you might want to readto help you along.Good luck and good growing.

Ah, awesome, thanks!

Been doing some reading, and will continue to do so while im stuck in camp this week. Very good info all over the place here.

Id also like to add, that 2 more babies were born today. Just noticed their heads poking out not to long ago. Their auto as well, but im un sure of the strain. That makes 100% germination. I did nothing special, just threw the seeds in the dirt. Brought them inside at night, and just let them be otherwise.

No names yet

Outdoor mix 1, and 2. Day #1

Just learnd they are either Northern Light Automatic, Royal AK Automatic orRoyal Bluematic.. either way, im happy to see them!

I know its only been a day, but im just so excited. Besides, I have to leave for work for a week and wont be around to see them.
The bubblicious seems to be growing pretty quickly so far.

I think ive changed my mind on feeding. Im going to try out the easy dirt guide in the new growers forum.
I like the sounds of it, seems like its up my alley. My soils not the same, as its to late for that, but all the tomatoes and other veggies we have growing in it are thriving like crazy. So fingers crossed.

Heres pics. Bubbleicious day 3, and outdoor mix day 2.

Back from camp!

The little ladies are looking happy in their greenhouse.

Went out today and got some of the alaska fish emultion 5-1-1. Ill start feeding them probably on wednesday, which will be day 14. But we'll see how they look first.

Heres a couple pics of thw bubblicious at day 11.

Good god they grow up so fast.

If i sit in the greenhouse long enough, i could actually see it happen in front of me. (....i have)

Anyways, day 14 is upon us for the bubblicious, and they were looking a little hungry. Gave them their first shot of the fish emultion today. However, i somehow managed to misread "tsp" as "tbs" ... oops. Thankfully im pretty sure everything will be ok. The recommended dose on the bottle is what i ended up accidently giving them, so hopfully it wont hurt. Besides, from what im reading, its pretty damn hard to burn plants with this stuff. So fingers crossed.

Ive also been noticing, that the 2 random outdoor babies dont seem to happy in the greenhouse. They have been moved to a cooler, slightly less sun soaked location in the yard.


Im already overly excited about my next batch of seeds... after a long evening of some fine blueberry, and copious amounts of bud porn, my lovely lady and i have decided on either Vertigo, or Bloody Skunk. Any thoughts?

Great start can't wait to follow.. Your two weaker looking outdoor may be NL auto (if they happen to be nirvana's genetics) according to their description on seedfinder "Northern Light is a marijuana strain which is highly suited to indoor growing. Nearly all promising modern indoor cannabis strains contain Northern Lights genes." Yet the picture for the plant is outdoor.. So I'm sure it will grow just fine just a little more sensitive to the sun at a young age.

Day 15.

well, doesnt look like I hurt them much with my little accident. In fact, they look happier already. Its hard to tell with the crappy camera on my tablet, but the leaves have darkened up quite a bit, and I can really see a difference in size. Perhaps ill just roll with it.

I have 3 more bubblicious seeds left. Thinking of starting them next week perhaps, and then growing some bloody skunks after that. Or vice versa... gah! So many decisions.

Hmm, intresting. Thanks for the input!

Their not from nirvana however, these guys came from royal queen seeds. But could very well be NL. Ive also read that the royal bluematic (which they could also be) isnt a huge fan of the sun early on either. They look a bit happier in their new homes at the moment.

Not to worried either way. Really Im only doing this to gain some auto experience. Making a few mistakes with different strains will end up helping me learn in the end.

Thanks for checking out my grow!
