For the germination process I ,First put the seeds in distilled water ph 6.5 for 24 hours . Let them float for the first 12 hours in a warm (dark) place . I used my grow tent temperature inside was 75 degrees and 50%humidity through out the entire process . After first 12 hours I poked the seed to the bottom of the cup and let them set for the finale 12 hours . After the full 24 hours was up . I placed the seed’s on a plate with paper towel first and second I added water to the paper towel (moist not wet) and placed a seeds on top with another moist paper towel and let go back in the tent for 2 more days After two days the tap roots appeared for each seed so I potted 2-3 into there finale medium . Didn’t have enough soil for all 3. Once potted. Plants 🌱 are given 18 hours of light 💡

Harvest Report: The Swift Journey of Blackberry Auto Greetings, fellow cultivators! The moment we've all been eagerly awaiting has arrived – the harvest of my Blackberry Auto. This beauty has moved through her life cycle with astonishing speed and grace. Let's take a moment to reflect on her incredible journey from seed to harvest and celebrate the fruits of our labor. Seed to Sprout: It feels like just yesterday when I planted the tiny seed of Blackberry Auto. Nestled in a Root Riot cube, she sprouted with vigor, her first delicate leaves reaching for the light. The conditions were perfect, with temperatures at a steady 28°C and relative humidity at 95%, creating an ideal environment for her early growth. Transplanting and Early Growth: As she transitioned to a small pot filled with rich soil and Mycor Mix, Blackberry Auto continued to thrive. The Mycor Mix, with its blend of various mycorrhizae species, worked wonders in enlarging her root system and facilitating nutrient uptake. Her early growth was nothing short of spectacular, setting the stage for the robust plant she would become. Rapid Vegetative Phase: Blackberry Auto quickly outgrew her initial pot and was soon transplanted into her final home – a 16L AutoPot. This setup allowed her to drink as she pleased, supported by the precise hydration of the AutoPot Aquavalve. With a foundation of Aptus All-in-One Pellets and Mycor Mix Soil, she had everything she needed for explosive growth. Her leaves grew enormous and lush, and her branches spread wide with gentle low-stress training. Swift Flowering and Stunning Development: Entering the flowering phase, Blackberry Auto didn't slow down. Her buds formed quickly, each one a masterpiece of nature. The colors were a sight to behold – deep purples, vibrant magentas, and hints of dark blue. The aromatic symphony filled the grow room, a testament to her potent genetics and the meticulous care provided. Natural Brilliance and Final Weeks: Observing her rapid progress, I ceased all feedings to let Blackberry Auto showcase her natural brilliance. Her final weeks were marked by a dazzling display of colors and an incredible pace of bud development. Each day brought new marvels, as her buds swelled and her trichomes sparkled like a constellation. A Heartfelt Reflection: From the moment she sprouted to her final days of flowering, Blackberry Auto has been a true wonder. Her speed and beauty have exceeded all expectations, and it's hard to believe how quickly she reached this point. This journey has been a testament to the magic of cultivation and the resilience of a well-bred strain. Acknowledgments and Gratitude: As we celebrate this harvest, I extend my deepest gratitude to @fastbuds_official for creating such a remarkable strain. To Aptus Holland, my main sponsor, your support has been invaluable in nurturing this beauty. A special thank you to Grow Diaries for providing a platform to share this journey, and to the community for your shared passion and camaraderie. 🌱💚 As we move forward, I eagerly anticipate the trim and smoke reports, where we'll dive into the sensory delights of Blackberry Auto. For now, let's revel in the joy of a successful harvest and the extraordinary journey that brought us here. Genetics Blackberry Auto @Fast_Buds Food - @aptusholland @aptus_world As always thank you all for stopping by, for the love and for it all , this journey of mine wold just not be the same without you guys, the love and support is very much appreciated and i fell honored and blessed with you all in my life

Hi there Friends🕊️ Last week the Banana‘s left Stem snaped. I covered it in tape and it didnt dry out. The i removed it Like 2-3 days later because i wanted to cut the branch off, to let the plant spend her Energy in the healthy ones. But the i saw how strong it got and decided to even LST the broken stem even more because it strenghtened the left over parts. Now it recovered really good and got a defoliation. Maybe i will Cover up the Open Crack🤷‍♂️

5/12/21 Week 1 of flower 10 of life. Checked fluids 6.01ph, and 390tds. Plant seems ok were I split stem. Will give dose of recharge later this evening. Now on a 12/12 cycle. The watering volume per hour is not letting me go over 2.6 gallons per day. My pump is recirculating water at 200 gallons/hr it runs 15 minutes 2x day. So 50 gallons 2x day or 100 gallons per day. 5/13/21 will start foliar feeding tonight at lights out. Using TPS Canopy boost. Will use for 3 weeks every 3-4 days. Changed water to bloom nutrients. Ph 6.01 tds 710. 5/15/21 ph 6.18 tds 570. Will get dose of recharge this evening. Plants leaves are almost touching side to side in tent. 5/16/21 added water (4 gallons) can't believe she went through that much in 3 days. Ph 5.85 tds 689. Will get a foliar feeding tonight at lights out. 5/18/21 changed nutrients water. PH 5.96 TDS 680. Leaves of plant are now touching all 4 walls of 4x4 tent.

We driving into Week no.6 here So far im still on love with this Strain. @Divine_Seeds have done here a very great Job! This Strain is by far one of the best Strains i ever grew! She is resistent of mold and all other pests. She loves to get training! She loves quality nutes! She loves quality Lights and Sun! And she loves when it is a little colder as usually! Glad Michael from Divine send me 3 more Seeds of this Strain!

I forced flower a few days ago i showed that flux works on auto’s Late evening day 27 i hooked her up to the bucket and did Some heavy defo so she is ready for her flowerstretch still going to pin her down for another week to keep her height in check and to open her up for better light penetration and airflow Day 29 recovered nicely and looking amazing again Day 32 further training so she has as much space as she pissibly can and removed all the undergrowth from the branches only keeping the top 2 nodes of every branch in think still half of next week that i might be able to do a very late training but only time and enviroment can block the way of the dominatrix to get to her subjects

Nachdem ich zwei Verluste verkraften musste, hab ich mich dafür entschieden 2x "Dark Devil Auto" von Sweet Seeds und 1x "Lemon Cherry Gelato Auto" von Zamnesia nachzuschieben, die sich alle drei mittlerweile als Keimlinge im finalen Topf wiederfinden. Eine "Dark Devil" hat es nicht geschafft, aber dafür geht's dem anderen Keimling umso besser. Bis zum Ende der Woche zeigen sich die unterschiedlichen Genetiken der Strains deutlich .. Am weitesten ausgebildet hat sich .. Überraschung: "Titan F1 Auto" ... 😎 ...

Amnesia Skunk — Week 4 Report 1. Week 4 Context (12/12 Cycle) • Same room conditions as the rest of the garden. • Same environmental parameters. • Same nutrition, same measurements, no changes introduced. • Stability across the room remains the guiding principle. This consistency allows true genetic expression to be observed. ⸻ 2. Growth Pattern & Structure Amnesia Skunk is expressing very differently from other cultivars in the room: • Node count: ~6–7 nodes • Internodal spacing: Extremely compact • Overall stature: Short, tight, and powerful • Architecture: • Dense vertical core • Controlled lateral branching • Strong apical presence without excessive stretch This is a stocky, high-density phenotype, showing clear indications of structural strength. ⸻ 3. Main Stem & Vascular Development One of the most striking features this week is the main stem: • Notoriously thick compared to other plants at the same stage • Strong lignification already visible • Suggests: • Excellent nutrient transport capacity • High future flower-support potential • A plant built to carry weight As you beautifully put it — this is the kind of stem that looks like it will harvest as timber. ⸻ 4. Branching Behavior & Phenotypic Consistency • Both phenotypes are: • Very similar in overall structure • Expressing healthy, proportional branching • Producing smaller but well-defined side branches This indicates genetic stability, not randomness. Branching is present without chaos — everything feels intentional in how the plant is stacking itself. ⸻ 5. Training & Plant Handling (Week 4) • No aggressive training introduced • No topping, no hard interventions • Only: • Gentle leaf bending • Minimal leaf redirection • Very careful handling to improve light exposure Philosophy for this cultivar: Let her grow as she wishes, without stress, and observe her natural form. This approach respects her compact nature and avoids disrupting her internal balance. ⸻ 6. Plant Health & Visual Quality • Color: Deep, healthy green • Leaf posture: Relaxed, confident, no stress indicators • Growth rate: Steady and strong rather than fast and stretchy • Overall vitality: Excellent Amnesia Skunk is not racing — she’s building. ⸻ 7. Studio Observations & Documentation Value • Plants were taken to the studio for photography. • Under controlled lighting: • Structure becomes even more apparent • Stem thickness and node density stand out • Branch symmetry and internodal compression are clearly visible Photos captured: • Against the light • On dark backgrounds • Close-ups of stems and branching • Full-plant context shots This makes Week 4 documentation especially valuable for educational reference. ⸻ 8. Pre-Flower Status • No clear pre-flower signs yet. • Development remains firmly in the transitional vegetative phase under 12/12. • This slower, compact progression aligns perfectly with her morphology. Nothing is rushed — and nothing needs to be. ⸻ 9. Outlook Moving Forward • Expect: • Powerful flower support later in bloom • Dense, structured stacking rather than long spears • A cultivar that rewards patience Training will remain soft and respectful, with future adjustments based on how she chooses to open up.

Trust me, you won’t want to miss the next steps, let’s push the boundaries of indoor horticulture together! As always, this is shared for educational purposes, aiming to spread understanding and appreciation for this plant. Let’s celebrate it responsibly and continue to learn and grow together. With true love comes happiness. Always believe in yourself, and always do things expecting nothing and with an open heart. Be a giver, and the universe will give back in ways you could never imagine. 💚 Growers love to all 💚 📸 P.S. – The Eye Behind the Lens All photos in this diary (for now — except for the ones showing the camera, which I took with an iPhone) are taken with a Sony A6700 paired with a Sony full-frame macro lens and a few more. Photography is part of the story — it’s how we share the fine textures, the glow, and the quiet details that words can’t always capture. I’ve also started experimenting with photo stacking — a technique where multiple images, each taken at a slightly different focus point, are layered together to create one perfectly sharp image from front to back. It’s not digital enhancement or AI; it’s pure photography — a way to reveal the plant’s beauty in microscopic depth, from trichome to petal. You’ll even see a few shots of "ghost me" capturing the shots — camera, lens, setup — because every grow deserves not just to be cultivated, but documented like art.

it's been 3 weeks already, the girl is short, and I performed a major ring cut on her:) this will be my first such growth, I want to see something different :) overall, the girl looks healthy:) I think she will be really great :) as long as she hasn't received the main ones nutrients, but I will introduce her to them in the next watering - she will like it :) good luck to everyone :)!

Fed and defoliated to start week 7. The plant looks good for being in a small pot, the buds are on point and look as expected at this stage.

It's a nice change of pace to have these warmer temperatures, even if it's not quite spring yet. Low 40s during the day is a lot more comfortable than what we've been dealing with lately. Hopefully, this is a sign that spring's around Those Bubble OG's are looking fantastic! It's awesome how two of them are starting to get that purple color – they look so cool. The third one might look a little different, but that just adds to the fun of growing them.

I've cut down on grow at this point as the soil seems to have a lot. I'll feed for another week then think about Flushing. The kalimist will keep getting fed bloom and grow as its only been flowering for about 3 weeks due to taking longer to force flower.
