Your question inspired me to stop being lazy and work on getting the second tent set up. It’s not done, but I did get the exhaust fan installed. Hopefully it will help ol droopy drawers perk up a little.

Queen BBK update - day 6 bloom
BBK is plugging right along. She is stretching and showing new growth nicely.
I didn’t do a great job about taking nodes off the stem to make room for future colas to come in. I have been toying with the idea of [EDIT] monster cropping and revegging, but I already kind of have a lot on my plate. She’s just been so amazing the whole time, it makes it tempting at the very least.
Anyhow, hope everyone is having a good weekend. Happy Gardening

Looks awesome HH! That canopy looks good and even up top on the Queen. Beautiful. Whatever you decide I'm sure you'll have no problem. Although, too much on our plates leave little time for ourselves. Don't forget to wind down every once in a while

Hey was just trying to catch up, but what happened with the BBK? Some were autos?
That is one weird strain that's hard to get ahold of. I was excited to see someone had it, because usually the only seed banks I see with one have the auto version which doesn't seem the same--like as in completely different lineage.
I have gotten it out of some bagseed a few times, and made my own feminized seeds of it, but haven't ran it for a while. It's so hard to find, I want to get a better green thumb before I grow the few I got.

Hi Fertilizer! Yes, you got it right. I got 5 Blackberry Kush photo seeds from I love growing marijuana seedbank. 4 of the 5 turned out to be autos. Queen BBK is the only actual photo of the bunch and she is awesome so far. It’s only my 2nd grow (3rd kind of), but she has been good to grow so far.

Yeah I really like the BBK strain I had as well, so I'm kind of bummed to see that 420's had some problems. I'm kinda curious how that happened, because from what I see yours is definitely similar to the BBK I've grown. One of the real unique characteristics of BBK is it has this little hooked-leaf thing it does, and I see it going on clear as day in the lower-right hand section of the previous photograph you posted.
I looked at 420's listing for it and it's weird, I can't actually see where they specify if it should be autoflower or photoperiod. But they say it's Afghani x Blackberry, which is always been the purported lineage of the photoperiod variety. Dutch Passion has an auto-flower version of the same name, but it's completely different lineage.
So right on man... Strange how you got 4 autoflower versions of it and one photoperiod. Did you ask 420 about that? I feel like they should refund you or send you some freebies or something. But I would definitely clone that one you've got now, you might have a hard time finding it again.
Gonna wait and see how it turns out. I love BBK. I grew it maybe three or four times, i don't really remember... Funny how that is haha. It was one of the very first strains I ever grew, so I had my problems with it, but it is such a hearty and robust strain that it was a good one to learn with. Very nice yields, super potent ( you can get it past the 20% mark 420 quoted ) and it isn't very high-maintenance like a lot of other strains. Also, the trim makes some of the best shatter/wax I've ever made.
Anyway before I rambling anymore, nice growing so far!

Thanks man! Yeah, I’ve wondered a lot about what happened down at the ol factory at 420. They took very good care of me on that deal, so I’ll vouch for their customer service. I probably should’ve just thrown the other seeds away, but I just couldn’t do it. I never would’ve guessed that only one would actually be what it was supposed to be. Oh well, they’ve become free seeds at this point so I’ll happily get what I get out of them. Sure has been some headache for it tho. I’m excited to see how she turns out. It’s my first time trying out this quad technique too and so far I really like it.Yeah I really like the BBK strain I had as well, so I'm kind of bummed to see that 420's had some problems.

Feel free to ramble, tends to happen in a stoner circle like this!
Looks great! See how well you do when you grow the plant you're expecting?

More Queen BBK update:
86 days from sprout - 10 days blooming
A couple of days ago, I opened her up a little to make more room through stretch, and I quite literally opened her up... I accidentally split her upper seam.
The even more lame part is that I have so many ties on her, it was kind of hard to tape her back together again. I did the best I could, and then I wrapped a piece of soft wire around it, like a twist tie, for more support. Sticking my hands in there kind of messed up the canopy. Total bummer. She still looks alright but not as even as she was before.
She’s getting pretty big in there. Maybe it’s a good thing she ended up having this tent all to herself?
The autos tent is plugging along. Over the weekend (Sun/Mon) I was able to get the tent completely set up and dialed in. Intake and exhaust fans installed with the carbon filter too, oscillating fans, the works! I also started giving them some dark period, because Sneaky B is still acting all droopy. I started with just 2 hours, no improvement. Then 3, she started looking a little better. I went ahead and made it 20/4 and that’s where it will stay. If she doesn’t like it, she can just deal with it and droop forever. I’m totally not in the mood for her nonsense! The others are handing it quite well, so that’s good. The temps get down to about 64-65°F, so not ideal. Hoping for some warmer weather, but getting snow instead.
It’s dark time now, so I’ll get some pictures after they wake.
Also, in very cool news - I’m going to be participating in a group grow.
I almost missed out, but it awesomely worked out and I’ll get to participate!! So I’m really looking forward to that. It’ll be nice to get back to some photos (not surprise autos!) for a minute and learn from others in real time, side by side growing. I’m suddenly wishing that these autos would hurry up and get out of the way! They still have a ways to go though, so I’ll have some time to practice my patience. I’m really excited about it though!
Anyhow, that’s it until later. Happy Gardening!

You getting in with P and B? Should be a great grow 
If that's lights out then it's fine. And a 10º drop between lights on and off is supposed to be a good thing.
What group grow are you participating in? Looking awesome HH! Oh the old split stem scenario, I wouldn't worry too much. The tape and wire should be fine. I've split plenty of stems and only one that I can remember was bad enough to kill half the plant lol, literally split a plant down the middle and half of it died. I knew something was wrong about an hour after doing it as all the leaves started to droop. Don't worry, yours looks fine. Hope you're well m'dear
Looking good over there HH! Hope the split stem heals up quick... might even see a bit of new growth form the stress.More Queen BBK update:

Seems that everyone is getting their grow areas dialed in just right lately. I bet the group grow will be a sight to see!

Yes! I’m hoping I don’t embarrass myself too badly. I’m definitely one of the newer growers of the bunch.You getting in with P and B? Should be a great grow

That is at lights out, and it is about that 10° swing, so frankly I don’t know what else I can do for her. She is in a 2 gal pot. Could it be a root bound issue? She’s already making little nugs, so I’d guess there’s not a lot I can try from here to help.
Have fun in the comparative!!!!!
You'll be growing along with some fantastic people.
Bilbo and Preston will treat you well.

After I split her, the next morning I went to the tent first thing in the morning to see if there was any carnage. I was so relieved. After all the poo I’ve been dealing with, my heart would split down the seam if I had ruined her!! I’m doing good Professor, I hope you are too my friend!
That sure would be nice! She’s still stretching, so I was worried it would stall her out. We shall see...Looking good over there HH! Hope the split stem heals up quick... might even see a bit of new growth form the stress.
