Hello Diary. The first week of flowering on my little farm is over, so I started photographing the plants in more detail and I will now start photographing on a black background as well now that they are much more interesting and beautiful. 😍 I changed the light regime in the Box, now the plants have 4 hours of darkness and 20 hours of light. As you can see in the photos, Fat Banana grew 72cm in the first 30 days which I would say is the average for Automatic on my Farm. Compared to Haze Berry it is slightly lower, but considering the strain, it was also to be expected. We’ll see how much more it will grow, I hope it stays lower than 100cm. 😏 My plan is to do defoliation in a day or two. Watering has become quite difficult due to the amount of leaves and branches but I think it will come in handy to aerate them anyway. The flowers develop nicely and there are many of them, Fat Banana is not somehow symmetrical, the branches developed differently, so it looks a little strange, but I really like it because of its naturalness. I still add BioBizz as scheduled for the current week and add CalMag but only preventively in a smaller dose. Watering is on average every two to three days. Another Haze Berry who keep her company on the Farm, I put in the middle and put a pot underneath to bring it closer to the light. It is now a real little jungle on the Farm so defoliation is a must. I am satisfied with how the plants are developing, they have good conditions and I think they are enjoying my "Little Farm". 😎 Let’s take a look at what happened this week. 17/10/2020 - Day 23. Watering and changing the light. I added BioBizz according to the schedule for the first week of flowering, I replaced Fish-Mix with Bio-Grow. I still add 1.5 ml / lit of CalMag for prevention. p.H. I dropped to 6.6 with Plagron’s Lemon Kick. After watering I changed the light mode to 20/4. Temp / Humidity on the farm - 25.2 degrees and 41% humidity. 20/10/2020 - Day 26. Watering. Same procedure as three days ago. p.H - 6.5 Temp / Humidity on the farm - 26.2 degrees and 43% humidity. 22/10/2020 - Day 28. Photographing and measuring plant height. Since the beginning of flowering, the motives for photography have doubled , so the number of photos has increased. Temp / Humidity on the farm - 25.5 degrees and 45% humidity. Fat Banana Auto - Day 28. - 72 cm This is it for the first week of flowering, now I still have to do defoliation and then with pleasure follow the development of flowers. See you soon. 🙌

We are reaching the end, the buds are heavy and the smell is delightful. The trichomes look alright, I will harvest next week. Can't wait any longer to be honest.

Chopped one before vacation and off to dry while I'm in Ireland and the UK, leaving the other one to keep going and chopped on return.

All caught up. Transplanted into 3 gallon pots. Lightly watered with some calmag and recharge Roots were good and just about ready for the upgrade. No pics but I’ll keep this in mind for my next grow and take some. I know I looked on here and watched YouTube videos to see how was done and it has been very helpful

Hey now! So after 8 days of drying, and 6 days of curing, I just tried the Sour Diesel in a glass water pipe, and she is freaking amazing. She burns nice and slow, with thick clouds of smoke, and tastes exactly like she should, like a sour/citrus/fuel with a very nice aftertaste. I ended up with less than 20% of wet weight, but I am so ecstatic with the quality, I could freaking care less! I have a fantasy football draft on Saturday night, and I can't wait for the rest of my league to sample her! I had so much fun with this grow, from constructing the watering/draining system, to learning more about photography and video, to meeting everyone in this community, and finally to smoking Nugs that I actually grew! Until next time, be safe everyone, and Blaze On!!!

Everything after germination has been pretty smooth. The plants in veg had a couple small brown spots due to under watering but no extreme signs or any abnormalities.

Overall, I am extremely happy with the genetics of the Auto Euforia and the general success of the grow. I always like to reflect on mistakes I have made, so let me lay them out here: I overlit the plant during veg, contributing to it's bushy nature. It grew well but this would be a waste of electricity if I was growing more commercially. During the last week of flower, my region of Ontario was hit with tons of rain and humidity. I took some steps to increase circulation of dehumidified air, but lowering 95rh to 65-70rh is still insufficient and I lost some control of the environment. The awful result was the start of mold in some select areas, particularly in the fattest buds and where leaves were cut away and petioles remained. This issue is not due to Dutch Passions great genetics, and is entirely due to a combination of an unseasonable environment and my own overconfidence. This mold was never clearly apparent on the outside of the buds, but I found it will trichomes scouting under magnification. This forced me to speed up the harvest and drying process. It also means that I have had to carefully grade the buds into those safe for smoking and vaping, those mold free but needing a second examination (will be rosin pressed), and those close enough to spots of mold to be only for for edibles. Any moldy bud was of course cut away and will be disposed of. Nevertheless, I have many ounces of fantastic buds, and will be making some nice pressed rosin based 510 cartridges. I will edit the harvest post with more information after the cure, and showing the various processing I will be doing. Happy growing! 🌱

The PH kept dropping towards the end of the week, I have a feeling the plants could use more pk booster and less of everything else so will be only using pk, bloom and micro for next weeks nutrient swap. I'm thinking of dropping the bloom and micro the following week and then flush the week after. Was hoping for the buds to have fattened up a little more but still very happy with the results so far, especially for my first attempt. Had a look at the trichomes with a little 45x scope and they're mostly cloudy, some clear and very few amber (a few amber on the tops of the tallest buds). The blue dream (front left) has very airy/loose buds but hopefully they'll still smoke well when finished. The critical has improved with the extra light that I put down low as a side light. Bruce banner still out in front followed by gorilla glue. The GSC is probably going to yield the least but it has one big bud that is looking super dense and heavy, it took the biggest hit from the root rot and damage early on so was stunted the worst out of the 5 plants

The plants (especially the Blueberry Headband) is drinking a lot! Roots are looking great and bud production is excellent! CBD is now developing trichomes and a great lemony aroma. The CBD deficiency is gone now that there is more Calcium and Magnesium.

Bruce Banners are frosting up heavily and stacking dense buds, but close-ups shows tip burn and leaf clawing after the recent stress.
