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.

Week 2 - Vegetation | Black Diamond Auto Pheno A Hello everyone, and welcome back to another update from the 12/12 From Seed adventure. This week we continue following Black Diamond Auto Pheno A as she settles into her new environment and continues building momentum for the journey ahead. As always, before diving into this week’s observations, a quick recap for anyone joining the diary for the first time. This project follows a 12/12 From Seed approach, where plants receive a flowering photoperiod from the moment they emerge. The goal is not only to explore different genetic expressions but also to document how each cultivar responds to this unique cultivation style from germination all the way through harvest. Week 2 has been another very positive chapter for this phenotype. The first thing that continues to catch my attention is a particularly interesting leaf expression that appeared during early growth. One of the leaves displayed a beautiful two-tone coloration, almost resembling natural camouflage, with lighter and darker shades of green sharing the same leaf blade. While unusual, the plant never showed any signs of stress or deficiency, and as newer growth continues to emerge, the effect appears to be gradually fading away. Sometimes plants gift us these little moments of individuality, and this one certainly managed to put a smile on my face every time I checked the tent. Beyond that unique characteristic, the overall development has been excellent. Throughout the week the plant continued building structure steadily and efficiently, finishing the period with seven established nodes. Growth remains compact and controlled, with tight internodal spacing and a strong symmetrical shape developing from the center outward. Every new set of leaves appears healthy and vigorous, and the overall architecture suggests a plant that is settling comfortably into its environment. The transplant performed previously appears to have been accepted without hesitation. Rather than slowing down, the plant responded by increasing growth speed and producing consistent new development across the entire canopy. The stem continues strengthening, leaf size continues increasing, and the root zone is clearly supporting healthy above-ground growth. Coloration remains vibrant throughout the plant. The foliage displays healthy green tones, leaf posture remains confident, and the canopy is beginning to take on the layered appearance that becomes increasingly noticeable as additional nodes develop. Nutritionally, the plants continue receiving a simple but effective feeding program consisting of Plagron Terra Grow, Power Roots, Pure Zym, and Sugar Royal. At this stage the goal is not aggressive feeding but rather providing a stable foundation for healthy root expansion, microbial activity, and steady vegetative development. Power Roots supports continued root establishment following transplant, Pure Zym helps maintain a healthy rhizosphere by assisting in the breakdown of dead organic matter, while Terra Grow provides the primary nutritional support required for vigorous vegetative growth. Sugar Royal is included early as part of the overall cultivation strategy, helping support plant metabolism throughout the cycle. One lesson that becomes increasingly clear during these early weeks is that consistency often outperforms complexity. Stable environmental conditions, proper watering practices, balanced nutrition, and patience continue to be the most valuable tools available to any grower. Overall, Week 2 has been a very successful week for Black Diamond Auto Pheno A. The plant is healthy, vigorous, structurally balanced, and developing exactly the way we hope to see at this stage of growth. The unique camouflage leaf may eventually disappear completely, but it will remain one of the first memorable characteristics recorded in this phenotype’s journey. Thank you to everyone following along, supporting the diary, sharing advice, and contributing to the amazing growing community that makes projects like this so enjoyable to document. A special thank you as always to Zamnesia for the genetics, Plagron for the nutrition, and to all growers who continue sharing their knowledge, successes, lessons, and experiences with the community. Until next week, growers love and happy growing everyone. 🌱💚

Been battling caterpillars & powdery mildew , gave them both a spray over night with some Lost Coast Therapy for the mildew & I will be spraying in another day or two with Monterey BT for the caterpillars, a lot of the mildew disappeared, about two more applications it should be totally gone. This will literally be my last major outside grow

Both growing fine so far.

Welcome to week 7 of flower for this lovely project. Things are moving along and hopefully we will be looking to start flushing soon so we can harvest these beautiful flowers around day 70. I'm very pleased so far with the way things are going for this run looks like I'll be pulling in some big numbers when it's all said and done! Huge shoutouts to @MarsHydroLED and Hidden Vault Genetics for all their work on outstanding gear that make growing a breeze! Huge shout outs to all my followers and people who stop into the diary alike , keep inspiring to grow! -The Projexx Day#43F Pictures N/A. Ladies are grooving along. Still putting on mass and trichomes daily! Day#44F Some of the plants are starting to throw some colour around now. Won't be long tell we're looking to flush I'm sure. Day#45F Some of the ladies are starting to slow down now while other push on gaining mass daily. Day#46F Pictures N/A. Lowered temps in room, increased water to some of the plants while decreasing some for others. Day#47F Pictures N/A. Ladies seem to be enjoying the temp decrease. Most plants are still gaining mass. Day#48F Pictures N/A. Creamy Cereal #1 starting to fade. I will be looking at the trichomes of all the plants in the coming days! Day#49F Macmelonz and Banana Smoothie #1 are still going strong putting on mass daily these ladies will be closer to 80 day finish I willing to be. Recap: Things are going good , with some plants showing signs of slowing down on mass its time to start checking trichomes to see if we can begin the flush period. I will be looking at the trichomes in the next couple of days to see where things are at on an overall level. The more time passes the more excited I am for the race to the finish line!

Apologies for lack of photos. But here is a close up timelapse bud shot for half a week...

First off Thanks to @SuperSativaSeedClub Johnny, for my competition winning seeds, this is one of them 🏆 💚 Along with others I will be starting next week. Strain: California Orange from Dutch Passion. Description: Californian Orange has a citrus-dominant aroma with notes of orange, mandarin, lemon and earth Californian Orange, the name says it all, California oranges. This cannabis strain has a lot of citrus terpenes and the proportion of myrcene and limonene in this strain is high compared to other strains. And with that, let's get into it 🚀 🌱 💚 Day 1: 27/09 Saturday I have made a 2L dechlorinated tap water mix which contains 1ml of Piranha and 1ml of Voodoo Juice. (This will be used all week) 100ml into a cup and allow the seed to soak for 24-36 hrs. And left inside the boiler cupboard , dark and warm. I'll check tomorrow ✅ (With 300ml I have watered in the plastic pots to ensure there not too wet in a few days for my seed. Day 2: 28/09 Sunday The seed has sank after just 12 hrs, so after 16 hrs, I poured it all into a paper towel. Squeezed excess water from the paper towel. Placed into a zip-loc bag for 24-36hrs, until the tap root emerges. I have now pre soaked the root-riot plugs (with 150ml of previous water mix) and squeezed gently any excess water - these are now placed in the 1L plastic pots, awaiting the newly germinated seed. Day 4 30/09 worried the seeds are too moist as tap roots have popped but curling back. I have popped them into the rootriot cubes now and inserted that into my 1L tub with Dynomyco in the hole. Sprayed -with the water mix from start of week ph6.41, the domes (jugs) and placed under 24hr light CFL 125w for the rest of germination week and possibly week 1 veg we'll see. Day 5 01/10 Wednesday First spray for soil and seed. Using the dechlorinated tap water and piranha and voodoo from the mix at start of week. pH 6.41. Also added heat mat under the tents water proof layer to ensure the seedling are kept warm. Day 6 02/10 Thursday Last use of this spray now , Final spray in domes, noticed seed casings have now fell. Day 7 03/10 Friday Dechlorinated tap water 1L mix with 2ml voodoo and 2 ml piranha. 300ml each. PH 6.36 End of week. Proud too say she has successfully passed germination week and now onto her veg journey that I'm aiming for 10-12week veg for.

I thought the plants would grow a bit faster, but I also pruned a lot of shoots. The root mass is now increasing rapidly on both plants, and this time they're staying white and healthy. I think the light penetration into the reservoir is lower, the oxygen supply is better thanks to the new air pump, and the Athena Cleanse from the start is also helping. Now I need to figure out the best power setting for the new lamp and the exact setting for the sweet spot. The temperatures should finally rise, so I can soon do without the radiators. It's still much too cold in the basement. I am always grateful for advice and tips from experienced growers. 😉 Especially growers with experience using Athena: is IPW worth it ? 04/26/2026 Damn. Another stupid accident caused trouble. 😡😡 One of the green radiators rolled over to the Sour Fraise and burned the stem of the plant. All the bark is gone all the way around. I cut the plant above the burned area, treated the stem with Clonex gel, and placed it in a rockwool cube soaked in a cloning mixture according to the Athena scheme. Let's hope it works.

Here we are in week six of flower and not a lot has happen this week other than the usual watering and letting her do her thing. Only trouble this week was updating GoPro had to try a few times. Other than that we got some rain in my home town and collected about 60 gallons that I'm going to use to finish the rest of the grow. Also, got my new AC Infinity CLOUDLINE T4, Quiet Inline Duct Fan System with Temperature and Humidity Controller, 4-Inch. I was really hoping this two plants would finish before the year ended, however, it looks like they got others plans. See you guys next week.

все еще продолжаю гнуть и подготавливать будущий ковер из БЛЭКДЖЕКА!

Hello to you from Russia, my friends from around the world. I thank all those who follow my progress and support me. Good luck! It's time to update my 13-week diary. I plan to make a harvest in a week, the plants are already fully talking about their ripeness. In General, things are going well for me, but due to weather conditions, the trip to the guerrilla cannabis plantations is postponed indefinitely. But I don't have to water them. Soon I plan on growing a new diary when the postal service delivers me new seeds and fertilizers for clones.

Start of week 2, growing well. Repotting in 3 gallon fabric pot tomorrow Tuesday - transplanted today into a 3 gallon fabric pot. No problems.

7/3 Hot as fuck today. Japanese beetles were around. I killed a few. I'm going to have to go over and keep an eye on things. It reached 90° today for the majority of the day. I watered around 1pm as I noticed most of the bags were very light. I'm glad I held off on the BT. I've dealt with jpn beetles before so hopfully that won't be an issue. Things are getting big. It won't let me upload any pictures or the video I did. I may upload it to past week. Went back over at night and and plants looked dropy but it was after 7pm and they were just going to sleep. 7/4 Didn't take photos this morning. Found some jpn beetles. That's the damage I've been seeing. I went back over last night to hunt them but I only got two. There weren't any others. No biggie. I'll put some pics up from today after I get back 7/5 Didn't get a chance to check the plants out today. My intuition tingled around 1pm and I had just gotten home and I ran over to check them. They displayed minor signs of heat stress as seen in the pics (due to the super high humidity and 90° weather) and the bags were light. A few were REALLY light. I could see they needed water. I WATERED 4 1/2 GALLONS TO THE GARDEN. DO TO THE HIGH TENPS AND WINDS IVE HAD TO WATER THE LAST THREE DAYS IN A ROW. IVE SLOWLY STRARTED INCREASING VOLUME. I don't want to water until I get a shit ton of run off because I want to keep the nutes in my soil as long as possible. As you can see things are going great. Minor pests but notjing major. They're growing at a very rapid pace. I'll need to add another layer of supports soon and begin to LST some of these girls. I've got one seedling in a 10 gal and I'm pretty sure it's a feminized red runtz but it's in preflower and looks and SHOULD be a female but I haven't seen the white hair yet. Looks like a female preflower though. I do have one auto though in a 5 gallon tjats doing good too. I have a bunch of pics but the internet is too slow. I'll upload tomorrow. Started pouring around 6. 7/6 Poured sheet rain all night. After it had Bern super fucking hot and I watered my plants with 4 1/2 gallons. Oh well. If I didn't water we wouldn't have gotten the rain. The fabric bags makes watering easier. The wind will dry out the medium. We do have some rain in the forecast. A pallet fell over and knocked my 5 gal bucket with tje auto into a 10 gal seedling but it held the pallet up and didn't damage anything. Out of all the ways it coyldve landed it landed just right to not hurt anything. Everything is super healthy. I do have some random pest damage but it's minimal. I'll decide whether to use a spray or not. Didn't take pictures this morning. Was pressed for time. 7/7 Super hot even at 8a.m. Rained the majority of the day yesterday. Plants are getting HUGE. I'm going to have to build a second round of supports and should probably start some LSTing. They seem to like growing natural how they are (besides the original topping and FIMed. You can tell these are ALL very high % indicas. I'm seeing pistols spitting out everywhere. Event horizon and sherb cake seem to be in the lead. The seedlings have realky taken off. The one I put in the 50 has fan leaves the size of my hands. 7/8 Wow it has been extremely hot. It's going to be in the 90's again today. Checked my plants and it seems the GMOs seem to be using more water. Those bags were a little lighter. Seeing how there is no rain in for a few days I had to water. WATERED 3 1/2 GALLONS. LAST SEEDLING FINALLY SHOWED AS A FEMALE. 7/9 Bags are still heavy. Found ONE jpn beetle this morning. Plants seem to be bigger everytime I look.starying the stretch and spitting out some pistols. I took some pics of the pistles. I'll update 7/10 should've started a new week but I didn't. I'll make next week six days. Plants are starting ro stretch. Minor random pest damage but woth the heat they need lots of water. Noticed a couple dead interior leaves so I should probably go through everything and defoliate. I need to add another layer of supports as well.

Beautiful buds super sticky✂️ Delicious smell something new to me! Cant Wait the curing to taste this beauty

Week 17 december - 23 december 17 december - watering

Banana Zkittlez comienza a florar el 22/01 ramificación muy firme y asoma tricomas apenas entra en floración. Mpk #1 y #2 presentan unos signos mas sativos creciendo el triple de su tamaño mes a mes ( empezando a querer florar ) 13/02/2024

My PPM was 180 in plant B and 190 in plant A, today i gave I little bit more nutrients to both of them, rising the ppm to 290/ ph 6,15- plant A - and 320 / ph 6,1 plant B.

Has a great taste not too strong of a buzz but just right night time. Cdb numbing effect… this was the smelliest plant ive grown so far. I wanted to make fem seeds but seems like it was unsuccessful using. Colloidal silver. I see one weird looking seed but don’t know if it’s viable. Callin this a half win because the bud is good . Will grow again when i have more space because i have a seed left. Thanks seedsman. Solid auto genetics send me more autos please lol

Lst is a little hard in this plant, because it has very shor internodes, but lets see how it will evolve The plant is beginning to show some preflowers
