Indoor Auto Blue 250cfl Indoor Soil Diary

[Tony]

According to google, This strain has never had any type of online documented do ary made anywhere on the Internet. so I'm being th first to give it some love! And because a turbulent attempt at growing it in a wilma 400w hydro setup resulted in a mouthwatering berry smoke! So I want to dominate this feisty strain an get a decent harvest out of her as this is my last seed of this strain.

The strain- Auto Blue by Seedman

The Strain Description.

Auto Blue is a beautiful inbred cross of a Lowryder #2 male from the Joint Doctor with an old Blueberry mother, whcih originated from Sagarmartha Seeds. The resulting plant is a vigorous, potent, auto-flowering strain with excellent side branching. Although some of the blue hues from the mother have been lost in the cross, this strain retains its mothers fruity taste.

The Setup
A 18 litre square pot
A 150cfl dual spec
A 250 red spec cfl
A ds120 secret Jardin tent
A PC fan wired to a Nokia charger (intake fan)
A 5 inch rukus extraction fan.
X 2 clip on fans I case extra air flows required.

A basic household fan with 45 degree swing for moving air around the groom.

A home made screen of green for the purpose of trying to level out an even canopy for all over level growth an more light exposure for all pe song bud sites.

Light schedule
20/4

Nutes.
Old timers organic Grow
Old timers organic Bloom

Soil.
Old timers own branded soil. Hands down I can honestly say I have never failed harvest a good crop using this soil as I've only ever used this brand along side the OT nute range!

My DIY skills are relatively crap as your see later in this grow when my "epic" home made screen of green makes its appearance in here in the coming weeks!

Sadly this grow will not be started from germination as its a couple of weeks in but I will post to where I am for curious minds who wish to follow and observe!

Few notes.
1. I've been waiting for either a refund or the delivery to the correct address of my OT grow nutes as this company I'm dealing with seem to be he'll be d on neither refunding me nor reliving my Ducking grow nutes which I order months ago. So since money doesn't grow on trees I. This day an age. I'm forced to keep enjoying email tennis with this sucks when no delivery arrives, or these struborn S.O.Bs give me a refund.

This annoys me as I don't have any free funds to place a new order for another 2 bottles of OT grow nutes to use in this grow. And the only nutes I have are OT bloom nutes for this later stages. And 5 litres of each grow, blooms and PK booster in the iconic hydro nute range.

So unless the ducks correctly driver my grow nutes of a refund I might be forced to just use bloom nutes. For this grow which will not give my lady the best growth advantage during her younger days..

Back to the grow before I make one of my doors even more holy than it already is...

Week 2

Here are a few pics of Bella roughly at the week 2. As you might notice she grew a little differently than most seedlings. As she seems to be missing 1 fan leaf and has what looks like a cat bite a chuck out of one of her true leaves.

No cats have been near my tent while I'm inside it(memo from past destruction of the aminal kind to past grows) and definitely no signs of bugs or any kind.

So I can only assume she's a odd young lady. But Hellas happy A. Looking healthy in her 1iter home. And is currently receiving 1 cup of water delivered in a circlular pattern around her. I feed her in this circular pattern because when seeds taproots begin to grow, they won't be using the full plots side unt around week 3 when they have had time to attach there legs and expanded.

So during the young days feeding a little an slowly increasing her watering in a circular pattern gives them growing roots a challenge to stretch out more each day to hunt out the water they can taste close by.

She's a little to young at the moment for me to begin daily shaking to toughen up her baby stem. But I plan to daily shake bella when she a little taller to give her a tight firm booty, to withstand whatever full body growth this young lady decides to throw at me in the coming months.

If you have questions a feel free to ask, an il try to answer as best as I can.

Looks like nice dirt ... hope your nutes get there ... When you upload a pic it's easier if you use the upload a file button in the lower right corner and then choose full size image ...

the media album didn't resize them I guess. il check of the edit media settings on here offer resizing as all the pics came from an iPhone.

Did a current, highest and lowest temp an humidity check on day 16 since it was a little more warmer than normal. An here's the results along with a weekend Bella selfie. Yes I'm aware she's 2 inches below the pots top, but anytime I try adjusting plants up more ends in terrible results.

I've also just slowly started bending her new leafs down every few hours, to try an get her to showy grow outwards more so prepare her for when I plan to place her under the screen.


Grow nutes sellers are now claiming they've never even stocked any old timer plant magic supplies since they started the company. But they've sold the item to thousands... So again I'm waiting for them to "apparently" arrange a refund for an order I placed months ago for an item that don't exsist via eBay.

If they refuse me a refund this time il just forget the grow Nutes an just use bloom all the way as I've got 2 bottles of bloom here.

She doesn't seem to mind the higher temps ...

 

[Tony]

I've noticed. Odd since only the PC fans drawing air into the tent and the rukus is sucking out the room. Be nice to see her handle summer heat like NL an blue mystic as both them strains managed some turbeulence at points of there grows.

If you want a chuckle re read my update an your see the latest excuse the eBay sellers claiming with my grow nuts order.

Week 3

Well this weeks showing that Bellas a fan of hit temps. As the lowest we've have was 29 an the highest was 34 according to my thermo reader.

I decided to try an prop her up with more soil under her so she's above he pots top level an it worked. She's now sitting pretty an sunbathing as she enjoys doing under her 250 bulb.

I've bell in slowly be shed branches down to try an teach them to grow more outwards. Obviously not a lot of bending has been done as her newer leafs annbranches are still relatively tender. But enough pressure to pin them down so they grow around my LST efforts To set her up with a spaceious even canopy for when I add the screen in a few weeks time.

Finally the Assholes on eBay have given in an agreed to send me my plant magic OT grow nutes I've been due for months. So hopefully that will arrive by Thursday's if the have finally sent it to the right address, debatable...

Even managed to borrow a few quid off an unexpected source so I've ordered a pre made stretched screen of green which is made for my tents measurements so il have that in a few days to.

She's clearly not been effected by my adjusting an pepping her up with more soul as she's looking rather perky.

Her height is almost 2inches tall. An a wee leaf an stem rub already gives a hint of her tasty berry aroma which I remember from last smokes, an my first attempt at growing this strain as my second ever 400w hydro attempted grow.

Also worth noting I've only been feeding her 1-2 cups of straight tap water per day. So I'm shocked she's handling the Water even without it being left over night. If all goes according to plan, I will be able to start introducing her to grow nutes to help her branch out even more.

No sign of lady parts Yet but it's still early days an her pics taken this afternoo. Clearly show a happy an perky young lady.

Not ex actually the outcome I would have liked when they were only suppose to replace a battery on an alarm.

So now I've got a boiler surveyor coming early tomorrow. To observe my boiler room an proberly discuss how long it's gonna take to get my entire boiler replaced.

Can't an honest guy just 1 grow without any or extra stress...

Off to bed as I'm stressed after today repair appointments outcome..
