So since Zkittles came down last week I had an open spot in the tent. Went ahead and dropped a M.O.B auto (mother of berries) went into a shot glass of RO water on sunday the 18th and had a half inch tap root this evening.
In the doc bud's q&a thread, a member mentioned how he prepares his pot for planting autoflowers and I figured I'd try it.
First, fill the pot to about the halfway point with kit soil. Then water that in with a 1/4 strength transplant drench. Spread roots powder over the surface then top up with kit soil. Sprinkle a bit more roots powder directly into the hole before dropping in the seedling.
Thanks for looking

Hey Knife, happy belated birthday! Hope you had an awesome day. I checked out @Cannablades and he's got such cool work! Are you getting a piece made from him?

Thanks Irie,
Yes I'm getting a dab sword made by @cannablades. I sent him a box of my off cuts and scraps in exchange. Mine will have a damascus blade, sterling silver tsuba, mammoth ivory collar, Hawaiian koa handle and saya and mammoth tooth pommel.
My new dab rig from @borocanglass arrived yesterday and got me all mesed up on jack herrer shatter. Love new toys

UPDATE
Northern lights auto (day110) has been braced up with bamboo stakes and garden wire to combat the weight. Still seeing some white hairs so will let it keep going. The more it bulks up the better
Dark Devil auto (day 29) got some LST 4 days ago and is taking off. Did my second watering on monday with Growth Ionic drench and tea. Als, following the kit's chart, I did my first Foliar feeding with the recommended dose of Destress Foliar spray on Wednesday. Judging by the pics I took tonight she's a very hapy girl and is loving the kit's magic.
New to the tent is this M.O.B Auto (mother of berries)
Popped the seed into a shot glass of RO water on the evening of the 18th and into my kit soil on the 21st.
She came up yesterday looking teeny tiny and with only one cotyledon leaf. Lights just came on and I can see the first itty bitty little blade leaves starting but it just seems so little. Should I be worried about this one? As long as it doesnt die or turn male I'll let it go tonsee what's what but it is by far the tiniest little canna seedling I've seen.
Lastly is a knife I just finished up. It is a Slipjoint folder in a Lanny's clip pattern. Made from damasteel (stainless damascus) with stainless hardware and gorgeous blue mammoth ivory scales.
Hope everyone has a good weekend

Just finished dry trimming and jarring up Aviendha(Zkittles) 68g of nice dense nugs with a strong citrus aroma. I haven't fired one up yet but might have a sampler tonight.
Here's the post trim pictures.

Nice work man, looking good, harvested my crop yesterday and it’s hanging up.
Hey Knife! Your Nothern Lights looks great, she's a good size auto! Your DDA is looking happy and reacting well to your training. The MOB looks like it's off to a good start, and iv'e not heard of the strain before so i'll be keeping a close eye on that one. Your Zkittles bud looks delicious! Awesome work in there my friend

Well the last of my original 3 got the chop last night. Northern lights is now on the drying box.
Some very nice looking buds and alot of sugar shake and flarf for oil, edibles, etc etc. My tent looks sooo empty now lol.
From here on all of my plants will be in the High Brix kit
DDA day 35
Really doing great, loving life and getting bigger every day. LST is going great, she's really bushing out. Starting to see a bit of purple starting on the very tops.
M.O.B auto day 8
Still looking pretty tiny but slowly getting bigger. Can just se the beginnings of the next set of leaves. Looks healthy but growing quite slowly. Would the missing cotyledon leaf be a cause for the slower growth?
Now it's time to start thinking about what I want to pop next. I'll be waiting a bit to let M..O.B get bigger.

Congrats on the harvests,KM-they were all beauties,but that Northern Lights was exceptional!
I've got a couple of autos starting-they've each got both their cotyledons and they're growing slower than molasses in January...or maybe I'm just impatient because the flower clock is counting down...

Dark Devil auto day 40
I've quit the training now and am just gonna let her go upwards from here. The nodes have finally started to alternate so I'm expecting things to take off here very soon.
She got watered to runoff with transplant drench and tea last night and a foliar spray with de-stress this evening about an hour prior to these pics. Looking happy and praying to the sp-250
One larger fan at the bottom looking unhappy but just one leaf so far.
M.O.B is on day 13 and still itty bitty. Really moving slowly hopefully it will get it together here and start growing.
Not sure how much I'll be able to get on here over the next couple weeks. I'm in full on panic mode for the annual metal art show I attend every year. This year Ive been so busy I havent been able to stock up on knives for the show so I'm taking a week off from my day job to make as many knives as I can while maintaining my level of quality in that week. I'm aiming for 16 knives between now and September 14th wish me luck I'm going to need it lol.
Here's a couple I finished up in the last week

Hey all. It's the night before the show. Just wanted to do a quick update before I'm gone for the weekend.
DDA day 50
This plant is looking fantastic altho she doesn't seem to be the dark purple pheno I was hoping for but I have 3 more beans to pop and hope for that sexy purp.
I think she's about done stretching now and starting to concentrate on building buds. From the way she's stacked up, if she fills in nice there should be some great colas.
Never mind the droop, she just woke up i this picture and was pretty thirsty. She's been drinking 1.5g every 4 days.
M.O.B auto. Day 23
Yupp still tiny, maybe a lost cause, might have to pop 2 instead of just one when my new seeds arrive
Ordered 3 new strains from a breeder that is supposed to be killing the autoflower game. Puff puff pass genetics, I've got Moon pebbles, Tangerine Pebbles, and teenage wedding cake en route. Hopefully they get here within the week
And lastly here is a look at what I was able to get done over the last 7 days.
Enjoy the weekend everyone and of course,
Have a knife day

Thanks DDPretty plants, but beautiful knives!

Break a leg, man. I hope the show goes well.
First day went well. Chilling in the hotel room now. Puffing on the first of my Zkittles. This stuff has an almost overpowering pine flavor that verges on being unpleasant. Hopefully a few more weeks in the jar will mellow that out some.

Thanks Hook I'm deffinately more than happy with my DDA. I did a fair bit of LST on her and she seems to have liked it. I'm determined to get a dark purple pheno in my tent. If the meds are as good as they are cracked up to be DDA will be a staple strain in my perpetual auto garden
Nice harvests Knife and some sweet new seeds inbound! Beautiful knives as always and I’m sure you will do great at the show this weekend!
Enjoy my friend and good luck!
