I bought 5 autoberry fem seeds from M.NL. Arrived discreetly and quickly. I used fertilome basic potting mix with no added nutes. I use miracle grow for my primary nitrogen nute, big bloom for my organic blend and depending on which state of flowering its in I use fox farms open sesame, beasty bloom or cha-Ching . I also use mag-sulfate and cal-mag plus. My first grows were in 2 gal. Poly grow bags with 3 X t8 4ft 2 bulb (6 tubes total) fixtures purchased from walmart with Zoo med ultra sun bulbs purchased from eBay with a total wattage of 324 watts . I created my own fem pollen and pollinated my own females from the original autoberry purchase. I get around 1/2 oz per plant dried with my shortest plant being 6" tall and the tallest being 18" tall. Not much color variation. Harvest at 62 days , sweet smooth grapefruit with a very aromatic finish.
I have now upgraded my soil by adding coco coir and perlite. I upgraded to a 3 gal. Grow bag and upgraded my lights to 1 600 watt metal halide and 1 600 watt HPS. The difference to this point is phenomenal . My oldest set of plants are exactly 4 weeks old and 29 1/2 " tall or 75 cm. much more side branching and dense bloom sets.
This small one is 16 days old.
Lighting and soil that drains well and holds moisture makes all the difference in the world. When I finally get a harvest with my upgrades in place I will post a follow up with the results.
Be blessed with what the universe has to offer .
Rubber down Chrome up and God first!!!
