KelticBlue's 2017: Soil, Ace Seeds Pure Pakistan Chitral Kush x Kali China Yunnan

[bobrown14]

This may be my new perpetual plan, growing an auto when I just cannot get the humidity down. Then the sativa/sativa hybrids veg toward the end of summer and flower into fall and winter...

That's a good idea KB.

I've wanted to try that this summer, grow autos at the cottage. I'm not going get to the cottage early enough to start them. We should be there already.

Last summer at the cottage on 7/1 it was 115F in the shade. Freak, hopefully never again.

Humidity is starting this week here in Philly. Wow but instead of heat and humidity we getting tornadoes and humidity.

I actually shut the widows to keep out the RH - its above dew point likely all night tonight. That with tornado warnings, mother nature can get interesting real fast.


Are you pinching off his balls??

I wonder if that could be a way of changing sex?

My hoo-man doesn't like my balls so I may as well grow flowers.

I'm with it.

Are you pinching off his balls??

I am trying to torture it ! And stall it. The male is starting to alternate nodes. And the Auto has shown pistols.

I had a crazy week, nonstop issues and problems while away from home.
I need to check on the plants a little closer in the morning. The auto is wide but seems weak in the stems.

taking a break tonight

Morning mr.Blue I see everything apart from the gnats is looking dandy brother.....

 

[kelticBlue]

THX Smeegs, gnats look to be in control above ground. I worry they might be under the soil top still. But I take it as it comes this time.

Cheers

They don't eat much... I've got a few in my VEG table.

hey B!!

I just dont have a good feeling this grow. gnats are gone, they went away quick.... pretty sure my auto has crown rot. soil stayed to moist, to long. I am hitting the soil with em-1 it seems to help.
What doesnt help, i got a whole bunch of negativity at work, strange negative vibes this week everywhere.

here is some piccy from last week as i play catch up.

the boy starts the show, it is stalled in its three gallon home. i am also keeping it thirsty.

Here we are 4 days later, pushing pistols.

Not bad. Still the main stem feels weak but better than it was. another dose of EM-1 water this week is going in.
I want to top dress some re-amendment, see if I can get the healthy micros going. 8 Photo dump.

Auto diesel stacking up nice.

 

[kelticBlue]

A quick update to keep my records straight.
Approxx.... May 12 birth date for the Auto Diesel, so call it 5 weeks old-ish?

Here it is. It is doing some growing the main stem has grown solid and rigid. I believe the EM-1 has been the biggest contributor to its health.

Turned out to be a good lookin gal!

Turned out to be a good lookin gal!

I am Happy for it. I only need a couple of buds to see me through till I get something from my seed stock ready for a winter flower.......

It is a big relief to have a healthy plant chugging along, It has a mild fuel-chem-skunky, smells like normal. My male right next to it is straight mint-y fresh smell.

 

[Pennywise]

At least the female is fuelly.

 

[kelticBlue]

At least the female is fuelly.

The stem is dank-y and the leaves are just a bit sweeter of dank.

 

[Pennywise]

Gotta have that fuel! Lol

 

[kelticBlue]

Gotta have that fuel! Lol

yea man, it is in the stink of it.
. . the missus will like it, she is old school. She got a little over whelmed with the power of the zamaldelica, but when you burn all of one of my fatties in one sitting, ya might get a bit anxious.
she is getting super spoiled with all this bud, not quite a snob yet but I am working on it.



Here is some photos from this morning. It is drinking way better than it was last week. I like.
The male isnt poping any balls on sticks yet. It is stalled in mature veg. No picture of it today.
Just what I am calling DeeCee, el auto.

The lovely buds setting up on the main stem, loving the look of this.

The over view. I am spreading out the lower shoots with my frog plant trainers, I might need another plant tie or two.
I have the timber cree cobs turned all the way up ~200w.

This from dope seeds, I got-z about 5 weeks left. I will probably be in colorado or somewhere far away in 5 weeks, always.

Dope-seeds Auto Diesel is an autoflowering version of the powerful NYCD strain and is no less impressive than its photoperiod parent. Auto diesel is a sativa dominant autoflowering cannabis strain which goes from seed to but in 10 weeks

 

[Pennywise]

Will be ntetesting to see how she finishes.

 

[bobrown14]

Diesel looking good there KB, that didn't take long at all.

Hopefully the work vibe turned the corner for ya.

I know the feeling. Every time I get in the car, the cops are following me! lol

Look at it this way, they leaving everyone else alone. Yer helping out. win win.

 

[kelticBlue]

Hopefully the work vibe turned the corner for ya.

wicked stressed with the work, but I feel like I turned a corner. I am training a lot of under qualified people trying to bring them up to speed so I have to tell people they are not doing so good and ruin hopes and dreams. It is not something I had to do 4-5 years ago, but I am getting better at it, ruining hopes and dreams, that is.

Big sunny day when the plants are happy I tell ya. I might still ditch this batch of soil after this grow, I think it got funky after the zamaldelica re veg. I might go back to fabric or try some air-pots 7 galls. try-to out grow the old tent.

 

[kelticBlue]

Another photo look today. I am topping off everyone with water. I am traveling for the weekend, so they get 4 days with out me peeking in on them.

Might have grown overnight, i dunno I have the tie downs in place and am spreading it out even more today.
