Hi, many thanks, glad you enjoyed! checked on the offchance i had amessage but i think you have made me want to do a few updates

[AgentPothead]

You are very welcome bro I feel like I learned a lot just from reading your journals before I even planted a seed, so thank you.

Mango & Blueberry

Also because of a move, i have not really done much...but your post made me want to update my journal - others haev you to thank...or blame!!!

So, as I said, I did things differently...decided to do 2 strains..vegged a Mango and a Blueberry for quite a while...


then some heavy training just before switch..was really chuffed with how flat I got them. Also continued opening things up more with defoliation from seed to see if I could keep things tight

Look quite butchered there hey?

[Lunix79]

This time I think I had night temps were way too col compared to day and both plants appeared to stretch...way more than I had envisaged..but plants still looked ok?

Week 2-ish




Day 19


and then I thought canopy was getting a bit big and plants too tall, so did a bit more defol...

[Lunix79]

So Day 19 after defol




Day 25, recovering and exploding all over

[Lunix79]

Then the unplanned happened...I found cheap flights for a holiday, so had to start making some trials for leaving the plants.



A friend was going to water the 2 in the garden...and was supposed to check on these too...but never did the ones in the tent! The advantage of having stoner friends, hey...?

Day 38 - just before leaving on holiday

I thought I was leaving nice healthy plants behind. To be fair he looked after the outdoors autos well...but these beasts couldn't cope with no water for 14 days of course, even if they had a couple of litres each in containers to supplement.

I came home to bone dry plants....gutted..still got a bit over a couple of onces, but they has so much promise....suprisingly smoke was very tasty though?? I was quite surprised by this? strength wasn't as it could be, especially the Mango, but still very enjoyable

Super Lemon Haze + 3 unknown

So, I moved...and it took a while before I was confident enough to get things going again..indoors at least! Had a go at autos outdoors...but this year the weather has been an absolute disaster, summer temps as low as 8 degC at night...even had some frost! didn't select my autos for that kind of weather, not the ones I popped in may anyway!

I also took the chance to germinate some photoperiods..ready for moving indoor when I got my act together a couple of months ago.

Unfortunately, i had only left the see packets as identifiers...and the damp weather made all but 1 illegible! I know one is an AK49, one a somango and one a the other a Pure AK...but I have no clue as to which is which...well..I am starting to know the somango quite well!!!

Here they are prior to going indoors... they were in TINY containers just before I re potted..hence so yellow!!! the 2 bigger plants were almost 3 months old at this stage....the others are about 3-4 weeks old...they also were hit by slugs and terribly cold temps for them poor things!

[Lunix79]

Here they are in their new home...much happier, 10 days after switch!

Day 10



Tough I realise now I got a little too eager in switching 12/12...plants still a little yellow, and it will be clear in next photos that, even though keeping them small and compact is a goal of mine, they still ended up recovering instead of stretching properly after switch...amazing how I was so excited after so long..and a disastrous summer!

[Lunix79]

but still, they grew and looked back on track by this point...

Day 15
