All right whats up!

The Q1 is lookin real nice! She bulked a bit and hasnt fox tailed as much as I thought she was about to which is nice. Very nice, fairly thick, tric coverage on all the bud (except for 2 smaller branches at the bottom). Trics are also very milky in color with some amber ones dotting the upper buds.

I think shes gonna get the chop tomorow morning or after noon. I dont think she has much more to offer so im going to take 98% of the plant tomorow and let the last 2 smaller side branches go a bit more. They showed up really late and are small but it either way its still bud! If i can let it finish a bit more then why not.

I also started a Bubble Bomb (photo per.) In a 5gallon pot... That shit takes up so much room its insane! Lol hopefully Ill be able to grow her out all the way till harvest and all but we will see what happens.IMAG1162.jpg IMAG1163.jpg IMAG1164.jpg IMAG1169.jpg

Ok update time!!!

So she got the chop a few days ago and just got jarred up and is on to curing! I havnt weighed the yeild yet, waiting till I can get access to my buddys scale. But she looks good and the smell is getting better on her.

I took like 98% of the plant and left the bottom 2 branches to finish up. I figured if they shocked too bad and die then its what ever because there wasnt much bud on them but they have been going strong and showed no signs of stress. Iv givin her a few feddings since and shes plumped up those branches and buds and is lookin very nice.

Ill get pics up tonight of the harvested bud for you guys also! IMAG1187.jpg

Heres some pics of whats drying/curing now of the Quick One

IMAG1215.jpg IMAG1216.jpg

Not an insane ammount by any means but Im happy with it. Not sure of the dry weight yet but I still also have the 2 branches so thats nice knowing that there is more coming from it still.

Id guess for weight its somewhere around a half oz maybe a bit more but not much. I think when the other 2 branches are finished I will be just shy of an oz by about 2-3gs. Hopefully less but I dont see these last buds getting real big.

Alright whats up RIU!

Got my beans in today from The Vault. This will be my first auto grow ever and my first grow in about 5yrs.

My set up:
2'x2'x4' tent (thought i ordered 5' but guess not lol)
250w hps (18/6)
2 gallon smart pots (also 1gallon on the way)
FFOF soil
Perlite


I also picked up the Flora line of nutes (FloraGro, FloraMicro, FloraBloom) and plan on running them real light threw out the grow.

The strains i got are:
Royal Queen Seeds- Quick One x1
World of Seeds- NL X Big bud x1
World of Seeds- Afghan Kush Ryder x7
Nirvana Seeds- Bubblelicious x5
Nirvana Seeds- OG Kush x1
Seedsman- Sour Diesel Haze x1

For this grow i picked the Quick One, Afghan Kush Ryder, and the NLxBig Bud. I started germing 3 just incase one doesnt go or make it to the end and i THINK i can fit 3 in my tent... So we will find out how that goes!

So if any one has any advice or tips or any questions please jump in! Its been a while since i tried growing last (small cab with 2 failed plants. 1 male that was extra sexy till dicks all over and the other just up and died) so im excited i have an actual chance of a good harvest.

I have a random bagseed goin right now to test my set up. Its actually growing better than i thought but i wont be holding on to it.
I want to know how the afghan kush Ryder turned out from world of seeds Bc I'm waiting for mine and I ordered dolomite lime pellets to keep ph stable in FFOF soil...maybe I should keep reading but that's awesome

Same here I ordered everything i needed yesterday here is what i picked up
Global star 300 w full spectrum led
5 gal grow bags
Fox farm nutrients trio
24"x24"x56" tent
Fan filter combo
And for my soil I went down to a local farmers market

Nice strain choices i as well pick up the
N.L. & Big Bud as well as the Afghan Kush Ryder. The afghan is supposed to be a great beginner strain that is pretty resistant issues.

O most def!!! Its awesome especially now that I really have the means to do it all lol.

The AKR turned out awesome. Mine started out in some rough conditions so she didnt grow to her fullest but she still turned out some of the best bud Iv ever had. Very frosty and stronger smelling. Long lasting high thats lingers with some nice pain releaf. Also has an energy to it to... as in I was high as a kite but still wanted to do something besides sit around. They are for sure good plants that id buy again. I still have 5 beans left so I have a few more chances to see what she can really do!

Awesome!! I'm in the 6th week of flower on my white widow and I got a qp from the ak 47. Unfortunately I used miracle grow Bc in my town i can't find regular soil (I have all the nutes) but I got it and used it and it has tore up my fans. However, the buds are getting so big and fat and succulent, and the smaller leaves are dark green so I think she will make me proud. I have learned a lot my last 3 grows!!

Whats up!!!

Smokin on some of the Quick One... Fuckin A!!! This shit is awesome!!! I had serious doubts about her when I popped her and didnt really care if she made it or not. Im seriously happy for the bud I have from her!

Shes got a very strong, heavy, flavor to her smoke. Its a kushy-dank flavor that really lingers and makes my mouth water every hit lol. Its a nice easy smoke also. The bud doesnt have a strong smell of weed till its broken up. Hoepfully I can pull a little more of the smell out over the next 2 weeks. The jar was at 61%RH when I got home from work. I had opened it earlier this morning for a while so shes gettin there. Im also going to try and not open the jar for a few days now lol.

Now to whats left of the Quick One. These 2 branches have started to fill out nicely. Shes still got a few weeks to go. Shes also got some burn going on but nothing real crazy. I hit her kind of hard with a good feeding the other. Over all looking good to me other than that.

What up!

Havnt posted a while. Been reading up on photo grows and refeshing myself on them with a Bubble Bomb by Bomb Seeds. Shes 2 1/2 weeks in so far. Enough on her tho lets get to the last of the Quick One!

I gave her the final chop yesterday morning. These last 2 branches are super frosty! I have them trimmed and hanging right now and Im gonna guess theyll weigh in some where just over 4g when i cut all the rest of the stem out. They have some nice color to them also.

So now Im down to 2 plants for now. Soon to be just the photo but Ill be back In here with more auto action In a few months... Depends on how the photo grow goes lol. May be sooner than later but Im shooting for laster. I still have 5 Afghan Kush Ryder, 6 Bubbelicious, and 1 OG Kush auto seeds left so I have quite a few more grows!!!

Ill post back on the final weight in a week or so but untill then heres some pics!
