I chopped a Gold Leaf Auto on the same day I planted another GG4 Auto#2, so still 6 plants in the grow house (L to R Vanilla Latte Auto, GG4 Auto, Bubble Gum Photo, Jelly Rancher Photo, GG4 Auto#1, Gold Leaf Auto):
Bubble Gum did not auto, but is in her 4th week of flowering at 98 days old. The curling ends on some leaves are not from nutes, they're the result of a stoned experimental spider mite treatment. I thought I might vacuum them off with the shopvac, but it's so powerful it sucked a whole cola 9 or 10" into the 3" pipe. It didn't break off, and didn't seem damaged, so I did the same to all the other colas. The next morning the ends of the leaves were shrivelled. I'm pretty sure it's windburn. Anyway, looks like she survived. She spends 12 hours in a darkroom every night while the autos still get 18 hours of light:
I chopped one of the Gold Leaf Auto twins a few days ago at day 61. It's already dry enough to put in jars, with the lid off. My first 2 harvests were 14g and 23g. This one should be well over an oz after a final trim and a little more drying. So far I just tried some quick-dried larf I chopped a few days before harvest. A little harsh, but definitely a loudddd smoke! I need to figure out a better curing routine, because drying at 90°F and RH 55-70% is hardly ideal. The smaller twin is still growing at 64 days old today. She has a couple of weeks to go I guess:
GG4 Auto is 43, and in the 2nd week of flowering. I'm looking forward to this smoke:
Jelly Rancher Photo is 21 today. In last week's journal I goofed on her age. She was topped a week ago, but I think I fimmed again because there are 2 little branches growing out of the wound, in addition to the 2 out of node 4. I did some leaf-tucking today to give more light to the ends of the lower branches.:
Vanilla Latte Auto is 13 today, and I can barely see the beginnings of node 3. I hope to top her above node 4:
I planted another GG4 Auto. Soaked Monday, planted Wednesday, I'm calling yesterday her day 1. The first set of leaves was pretty well developed this morning, so I took off the dome today. The coco surface felt hot, so I gave her a burlap skirt. She's my first coco grow, all the others were in soil. She's getting daily rainwater with CALiMAGic this week at pH 6. My Hanna pH tester is on the fritz, so I'm using GH pH drops. Will start GH Flora nutes next week. I rinsed out the coco coir in tapwater twice, soaked it overnight in CalMag to buffer it, then rinsed it again after I added the perlite:
That's it for this week's adventures. Thanks to all who've helped me along, @420Forever, @Fermented_Fruitz, @Mañ'O'Green, @Mossy, @RastaDaniel, @Kyote, @elcoloan, @ShadyGrove, @CrookDog, @LoveDaAutos, @mdabber, and all the other live stoners.
