This is a strain i have held onto for a long time. I wasn't sure the seed woould pop, but i managed to get it out of its shell with a little soaking and some surgery. She's going a lot better now, so lets put her in the blog and see how she does, shall we? here's a few closeups of the one I grew before. I only got 2, and i saved this one since 2018.

LOOKS LIKE SHES HOLDING TRUE TO FORM!
Here are some of the latest photos I took. I'm taking more this weekend of everyone, now that I have time to catch up on my journals again. I've got some really pretty photos of this one, and a new macro lens to get some closup trich shots.
Here she is

General Autoflower Feeding Schedule (complete)

This seemed easier to me, than just posting a little bit here, a little bit there. Better to get the entire schedule on one page, that way anyone wanting to check it out, or copy it down, doesnt have to sift through all the different pages to try and put it together. Any anomalies I will put on the page it's happening on. Otherwise you can just assume that my girls are getting the normal posted schedule, on time, and are having no troubles. this is not an exact guide. this is what i do with all of my own plants., because everyone has their own rhythmn, and their plants will as well. This is only general guidelines for what to do, and when. Our environments are not exactly alike, so our plants will not eat exactly alike, even if they are the same strain.

in the first 1-10 days:
lite (1/8-1/4 strength)
cal mag (any variety) trinity (roots organics) (both together.w/recharge as well.)
and mycos (I use growers recharge) once btween days 1-5
if it needs feeding twice within those first 5 days, I use just 1/4 strength cal-mag in plain RO water, to moisten the soil
I get them a good fresh H2O feed in there within the 10 days as well.

around days 7-8, I start adding in a light Sensi G feed (grow nutrients @ 1/8-1/4 strength), and on off days, a cal-mag / H2O feed in between them, until days 14-15.
If they are still doing well, I start giving cal-mag at full strength.
between days 14-18ish, I will give them a single feeding of silica (2ml/gal) and sensizyme(full st.),
and then IMMEDIATELY after that, they will get a full strength cal mag/trinity/recharge feed
between days 14-21 increase Sensi Grow to 8ml /gal (2ml / ltr). I continue on at these strengths, using Sensi Grow...

until days 30-40 (depending on the plant) I begin the switch week to Sensi Bloom, and start giving them Bud Candy as well. continuing to alternate nutrient feeds with the cal mag/h20 feeds.
At days 40-50, I start adding in Big Bud with the rest of the nutrients. Continue to alternate with CM/h2o.
around day 45-ish, start using some b-52 in there with the cal mag/h2o feeding.
days 50-55ish, start using Overdrive instead of Big Bud in there with the base nutrients.
Depending on strain, start reducing/stopping your base nutrients between days 60-70.
If still going beyond that, a couple of weeks, use Overdrive and Sensizyme 1-2x/wk, with Trinity in there @ 1/2 - 2/3 strength on off feed days.
Last week-10 days, I flush.

I use Sensi for most of the nutrients.
Trinity comes from roots organics, recharge comes from (edit name)
any questions just post them in the discussion, FEED SCHEDULE capitalized somewhere in there so I can catch it easier, and I'll answer it as soon as I see it.

wks 1 & 2

So the little girly had a rough start. She didnt do too well there for a bit, didn't know if she would come up, but i managed to get her out of her shell before she died (and i even soaked her for 2 days first)
She started out life in a 5 gal square pot, with Potters Gold. She started getting the weak cal mag/trinity/recharge mix, interspersed with fresh water, and a grow nute dose at 1/4 strength, the 1st week, then upped it a little bit this week. Here soon she will be at full strength. She's already recovering from her rough start, and i will post wk 3's photos soon.

wk 3-4 update pt. 1 (JAN 29 PHOTOS)

Sorry it has been a while. I've been playing catchup for a couple of weeks now. I had a roof leak in the grow room, and had to scramble to save everything.
So now im behind in my journals. But at least the ladies are still here to journal about!

The Sour Orange Diesel Crack is growing nicely. Shes not too tall, but she's only in a 2 gallon pot, so I don't expect too much in the height/weight area. This strain, from what I've grown of it so far, is pretty Sativa-y. It keeps me up at night, so I don't need much. I just make edibles with it, and usually stir some caramel into my coffee in the mornings .

She's a slender girl, but still pretty open in her structure. The buds are forming nicely, not too conjoined, so that they can all fully mature. I like them that way better than the long, fat arm length nugs. I think you get better trich coverage, and the sites mature more on all sides, instead of just on one. Purple buds do look neat when you crack them open and find green inside, but i'd rather have the entire thing turn purple.
Here are some photos I took.

wk 3-4 update pt 2 (Feb 17th photos)

So not we are getting caught up qwith all of the girls. Not haivng a camera at the same time my roof started sprouting rain did not help matters much. Everything happen at once huh?
Anyways, Here is a more updated photo of the SODK. It has just started getting some bloom food, from it's regular Sensi feed. She's got some good height to her for her size/pot, and I love the fact that the light penetrates all the way to the base of the stem still. Some phenos will get so thick you have to keep pulling leaves off the entire grow.

Super thick trich coverage, LOTS of hair. Some strains have less, some more. This one DEFINITELY has more. Pretty, stark white buds, slender rather than fat, hugging the stem close. They look pleasingly proportionate.

Here are the 2-17 photos I took: (I will post feed in its own page. Tonight I'm updating all journals that are behind with feed pages)

HARVEST DAY

so things got sidetracked. I'm sure everyone knows about the illness going around. Panic panic is the word of the day, and nothing is running well. I saw it coming back in Jan, and starting getting things ready, which caused me to fall behind in a lot of my homework, AND in my journals. I did remember to take photos of the SODK harvest. Some REALLY nice ones, actually. Here they are, without further yim-yammer

About author
Lilly_of_the_Zoo
I am a grower of decent experience, but not decades. I consider myself to have a good idea of what I am doing, but not quite at a professional level yet. Until very recently I have had to devote too much time to my studies to do that, but I am hoping to take things to the next level here in the near future, and appreciate any help. I grow mostly autos, mostly Mephisto, with a few random strains thrown in here and there to make things interesting. I have two solid photo phenos I have as clones, but my auto strains are constantly changing. I would love to grow, possibly breed, some good CBD strains, but haven't found what I am looking for yet. Feel free to leave comments, questions, on any of my postings. I'm pretty good at replying, because I work online in graphic design.

:spels: ---- :drool:-- Oh man, that's a juicy mama right there Lilly! Is she an official cross or something custom made? Coz those are excellent parents for some boot knockin', P- chuckin' fun = :hump:....CrackSOD -:rofl: ...I laugh because it's close to another cross I have made by Magic Seeds, CrackLOG (White Crack x Legend OG F1), which is bloody brilliant!
How did the aroma come out on the first girl? I can't imagine the scramble that could present considering how different they are..
This next one looks to have SODK bones, shaping up nicely! 2gal is about what I do, with only a 4x2 and being a total strain slut, I need to at least try for 4!

If you're looking for some great CBD crosses in auto and photo formats, Sweet and Dinafem are showing well here,.. Sweet has many choices, now. I grew the Honey Peach BCD auto, about 1:1, and she's a gem! ...Buds were literally contest winning nice,... The aroma was super rich, a new combo to my nose with spicy/fruity/sweet aromatic woods, blended; she offered a moderate buzz (more than expected, I suspect THC was about 10%, CBD close), but great efficacy for me...hpa.jpg
 
It's an official cross. I believe I got it as a freebie. Don't think I ever saw it in their list, but I could be wrong. I did miss a couple of drops. It has been years though. This was my last one, so im REALLY glad she popped. Cant WAIT for the seeds. I gave her some pollen form my purple father. I'll do a journal on one of the seeds, when I pop them. The first one had a pungent sweet smell, sorta catty on the after-taste (if that makes sense for a smell) but she tasted STRAIGHT like navel oranges. Thats why it took me so long to get back to her. Not a big fan of that much orange, then. I was looking more for funk. But I need some fruityness, so I hope she tastes at least somewhat like the other. They are NOT growing the same, exactly. THis one is not nearly as leafy. Other than that, they seem similar. I can tell they're related.

Those buds are beautiful. Is that the honey peach? I am looking for a good CBD heavy strain. Though I want one that still has a decent amt of THC, too. They do different things for me, but i need both for maximum medication:P I just popped 3 Dinafem from my contest winnings. They were the very first seed I ever bought for myself. It was a Roadrunner #2. But I lost track of them after that, when I found Mephisto. They have 2 sets now, and seem REALLY healthy. I'm for sure going to make another order from them.
Got Blueberry Cookies, and Purple Afghan Kush from them.

*fyi- my breeding project rnd. 1 has completed, so if you want to see the crosses from a Forgotten Cookies, and a Tyrone purps (Deep Sea Creature X a mephisto Tyrone) harvest im posting it up today.
 
:pimp: You know those guys, shameless shakers of their money-makers! :rofl: Who can blame, you can't waste Good or opportunity! You should have seen the posting GBD did some years back, showing seeds of photo parents they were working with, making test crosses of them just for the love of it (it's gone now sadly)... But I did ask Mitch privately about trying a few crosses, and he hooked me up - :hump:... One of the best was Sour Bubble/ChemD' x Alien OG, if you love strongly floral aromatics, this one is the richest I've smelled to date! Strong rose aromatics dominate the floral notes, but not like you're smoking potporri:rofl:...

I gave her some pollen form my purple father. I'll do a journal on one of the seeds, when I pop them. The first one had a pungent sweet smell, sorta catty on the after-taste (if that makes sense for a smell) but she tasted STRAIGHT like navel oranges. Thats why it took me so long to get back to her. Not a big fan of that much orange, then. I was looking more for funk. But I need some fruityness, so I hope she tastes at least somewhat like the other.
See, you can't resist either! .... not sure about "catty", as in cat pee? Interesting, that the aroma doesn't translate well into the smoke sometimes.. terps get destroyed, re-blended, etc. when combusted I would guess,,... I've had a couple batches of cat-pee smelling stuff, both tasted differently from the strangely appealing (:rofl:) aroma of dry buds! Room smoke smell was amazing, exotic :shrug:- potent as hell too...
I love strong citrus aroma/flavor, orange especially! Had to get the real deal sometime, best I had was a superb pheno of Agent Orange I got from a delivery service years ago. Did some blind testing on folks for aroma, most said orange candy- yum!
Last year I tried Dinafem Orange Juice photo', Tangie basically... Big fat strikeout, not even sorta orangey :cuss: I know pheno's are a dice roll, but this was ridiculous; I half suspect a packing error. The smoke is fine otherwise mostly, just a boring generic aroma, alas... This season if I can do a run outside, Sweet Red Mandarine F1FV is locked in, fingers crossed for orangey on her!
Thanks Lilly, on the HPCBD! They were super lovely buds, no doubt... down to my last nugg' of it- :yoinks: :haha: - gotta run another this season... Most the auto CBD's I see are in that 1:1, 1:2 range, or nearly all CBD... Unquestionably, a blend of the two work best IMO! One could always run a pure CBD cross and just add in a some reg'ler ol' bud too...
