It's amazing what comes back to you. I was pretty sure my brain was empty when I started, though. :P

Nothing new in this garden to report today. However, I was feeling creative, so I took a leaf off one of the plants - the prettiest plant, and this happened:

Amazing autos and hidden artistic talents coming to life. I can't believe I was lucky enough to be so close to someone when they allowed that door to open. Quite frankly, I feel honored to have been afforded such elegant timing by the universe. It doesn't happen that often. I'll be 62 in a couple weeks, and it's been a rare event in my own life. That's saying a lot. I ran a tattoo studio, so I had more opportunity than most to witness it.

That had to be the biggest rush to find yourself lost in the creative process and shocked at the end result. Am I right? You just pulled off a moment of right brain freedom. I'm impressed at how beautifully it turned out. Have you started another one yet? :laughtwo: I wouldn't have been able to resist.

I've just landed here, which means I know little of your grow. Not meaning to be rude, let me back up quickly and fill in the blanks. Nice to meet you, by the way. I'll be back. Thank you. You brightened my day in the most unexpected way. :Love:

Oh, thank you so, so, so much. I'm crying - literally. Ok, I'm 45 and it's probably these damn end of life hormones, but still. It was really thrilling, and I had to resist the temptation to do a million more right after it, and I also blocked out a complete plan for a brand new "pot painting" business to churn these out for discerning potheads everywhere matching every new canvas to the color of whatever strain I was growing at the time. Then, I made coffee, checked my email, and fixed a broken database, instead.

If I believed in, well, anything, I guess, and if one of those things was a former life, I'd swear I was some tortured artist now trapped in this mathematician. I see this amazing beauty in my equations, like the lines of the universe, the structure of it all are drawn with this special universal language, math, and I can read it, but it's all black and white. I know artsy people see the color, they hear another universal language, the bits that fill in that frame and give it substance and life. Every rare once in a while, I see in color, too. It's the most liberating rush and then, there's today, and I feel so still in my head again. Like once again deaf, the voice of color lost in a blanket of snow.

I would seriously hang those. I wish I could that.
I had an idea to make a montage of fan leaves on burlap.

I wanted to put actual leaves on it when I started, but they just didn't look right (I had some pressed in a book). I bet a montage on burlap would look awesome. I think you should try it because I had no idea what I was doing when I picked up that paint brush. My daughter is an actual artist, and I think I just wanted to be like her. What I mean is, I wasn't really painting to make a painting, if that makes sense at all. Now, that I re-read it, it doesn't. LOL.
 
I really can't get over how different these plants are. It's like if you bought a cocker spaniel and it looked like a poodle different.

I tried to pull a bud over from one plant to put it near the left plant - the left plant looks a week from harvest but the right one looks a month away. They were the same genetics, planted same day. It's just amazing to me like no matter what you "science" nature will still have her say in things.


Left

Right


That slow to develop plant started growing up again, too, I swear


The poor plant trapped in the corner I never take pictures of:


The furthest along plant is getting frosty.
 
I now know what torture is. I have like 4 billion ounces of pot growing in my house. I have no smokable pot in my house.
 
Good morning Growchick :)

I have seen you over at the coffee shop a few times, but this is the first I have come across your journal :) Now that I'm sub'd, I will come back and read it through when I have more time :)

I am glad to see I am not the only "numbers nut" around here LOL

Wow. They really are very different. My NT's are pretty similar phenos.
Your's are looking outstanding. Great job GC.

Thank you!

I guess the autos are just not very old generations of whatever strain they are - these plants behave like an F2 or F3 or something because each seed can be so different when its grown out. If I didn't know these four were the same thing, I wouldn't believe it.

And that one super slow one I've got is killing me LOL It's by far the tallest now - 50" - and it's the furthest behind in bud development. I bet it sits in the pot for 2 weeks after the others come down.
 
cajuncelt said:
Yeah, I always wonder when a seed company breeds an auto of their popular strain(s) how many generations it took to stabilize the new strain... if ever.

Right?

I think it takes like 4 or 5 generations, typically. I used to know this because I used to want to breed, but that was so long ago, and I'm too lazy to google atm.

Had to lean the tallest over today. It grew taller than the light and its top was in shadow.

LMAO, I've had to do the same thing. My bubble kush auto shot up to 54 inches. Big plant, big harvest. :)
 
One of the pistils is browning now on the plant that is finishing up the fastest. I wonder if I could pick it now. (Did I mention I'm out of pot.)

omg grow faster
 
So, I have a little magnifying glass to look at trichomes with, but I also have really bad eyeballs to use.

They are clear or milky white. There's no amber yet. This is the one part I've really forgotten. I can't remember if you pick when they go clear or when they go milky. I know if you wait til they are amber you have max something, but I seem to recall I used to pick half my plants at one time and the other half at amber so I had both morning and evening pot.

I might just go snip some smaller buds and try to dehydrate them at 90degrees in my oven. The pain I am in today is very, very real.
