I'm super surprised with this strain. It is massively genetically prepared for any conditions. It will take any and all nutes you throw at it and I'm still waiting for the first deficiency or spot or even yellow tip. The plant simply will not do anything but stay 100% healthy no matter what I do. She just got a six day run of nothing but bottled water cuz I wanted to make it easy for my helper while I was on vacation. Now back to nutes. She don't CARE, man. Best auto genetics I have encountered yet, in my limited experience. I'm SO impressed. And the cola will end up literally the size of my forearm if all joins together as it appears it's going to. Remember this is a 75 to 90 day auto. She has a month yet MINIMUM for the huge cola to get HUGE. I can't wait to see if it outweighs my previous auto attempts just by itself. I also am quite surprised this plant only produced TWO little bottom side branches. Everything else is tight to the central stem and growing into the main cola. That's as low a number as is scientifically possible. Surprising. Not that Humboldt specifically said different, I don't recall a mention of side branching so assumed it would be average. But WHOA what a cola this is going to be.Oh WOW! She is so proud! I’ve been waiting on this update for awhile now and it has been well worth the wait! Great work brother Jon!

That is awesome. I know what strain I’m ordering next time. Sounds like the perfect strain for my mentally challenged a$$! Haha. Have a great weekend Jon.I'm super surprised with this strain.

Thanks for the kind words! She's loving the sunlight after that break.
Thanks man. Relative to RH, both plants are always in the 45% range. I have four fans and a moving large fan on both plants. The air flow and bud rot is not an issue, I prepared for that.Hello again Jon! This journal was much easier to catch up on, for some reason I thought it was even longer than your other journal. I agree with you 100% about bathrooms, I live alone and have 2 so I've always grown in the master bathroom. How many bathrooms does one guy need?? And this way when I have company over they can still use the regular bath. It's perfect, mine happens to have cheap mirrored closet doors that maybe add a little something, and most important of all I can keep the door closed and the damn cats out!
You're going to want to watch your RH very closely with a giant cola, every one I've ever grown got mold in it. I was also growing outside in a very humid environment. Try to keep the humidity as low as you can at night and keep a good breeze on her, you want to dry any moisture that might be accumulating in there. Take that with a grain of salt, that was the first 6 plants I ever grew and I was doing stupid stuff like trying to wash off bird shit and misting them for absolutely no good reason, it was already 70%= rh. I then grew maybe another 8 full sized plants inside, they had no mold problems and pretty good colas but not massive. After that I switched to clones, so that's the full extent of my experience growing from seed to harvest.
Sue Ann looks great and is definitely flowering. I'm so glad you're leaving her alone like this, I've been training all of mine just to keep the heights consistent. It sounds like in running our lights so much it did the opposite of what we wanted, instead of increasing the growth during veg cycle it accelerates the advent of flower. How many hours of light is she currently getting? And what do you think would be the optimal light cycle for autos in veg? I'm thinking 14-10 or 15-9? I wonder what would happen if one were raised 12/12 from the start? Would that slow the veg cycle or trigger early flowering?
Perhaps in your next grow you could try a small experiment since you'll be growing a bunch of sour apples. Try aggressively defoliating one of them and see what you get. I'm an avid defoliator. If a leaf is blocking or shading a bud site it gets removed, and that ends up being almost all the fan leaves. But I must confess I've never done a comparison, my old grows were about packing as many clones into a 4x2 space as possible, which is quite a lot lol. However the leaves would end up being overwhelming, no light would get below the canopy. To my eye the yield was still about the same as I would have expected on a similar cola from my prior grows.
Enough of my rambling, I'm glad you recommended I check this out. Take care!
Yeah man, if you even just look at my last three posts you can clearly see how fat and how fast this girl is getting ginormous!!DAMN!

From dirt to tip of her cola she's 26". The cola bud itself, if it all grows together, is currently 23" top to bottom. LOL. No the trouble was worth it. My body feels the lessened workload, and now it's much easier to focus on perfection, which is always my goal. Thanks man.Looking good Jon! Sorry you had to go to all that trouble. How tall is she?
OH MY!Sue Anne
Day 54
Sorry guys but this bud is growing visibly daily for some damn reason and it's nutso. So I won't bore you with more of my relatively useless verbiage, and here's just a few shots from today. Even compared to yesterday's post you can see the damn difference. Nutso.
See how much the bottom empty spot filled in since yesterday? I've never seen anything like this damn plant.OH MY!
