Indoor CannabisBarber's 2017 3 Plant Perpetual Grow Diaries

[emoji860]So my collection of cannabis has started. From every plant I will save and store one ounce.

Hubbabubbasmelloscope is a very special part of our collection. Many years ago Bubblegum was the first Amsterdam cannabis we experienced, and so holds a sentimental reason to us. A couple of years ago we were lucky enough to be given a very special bubblegum cutting of 90’s serious seeds origin. Years later, several hundred plants were grown to find a matching high quality bubblegum smelling male to mate her with, but none matched her so she remains as an elite cutting... as a photoperiod. We crossed her to one of our high quality auto parents that is a good balance between indica and sativa. The results of this pairing have really made us happy! The bubblegum smell and taste is dominant amongst a high proportion.

There are Indica and Sativa phenotypes, she likes to get big! Plants love to branch into the typical christmas tree pattern, and she can exceed 100cm tall and wide to match in the right conditions.

The buds are generally compact, and there are A LOT of them. So yields are splendid.

She doesn't waste trichomes on fan leaves, however the buds late in flower are totally encrusted in resin. She can also purple up when shown cold temperatures. We have recorded a good resistance to mould. Great candidate for training if your space is limited.

She oozes taste, smell and an amazing sweet flavour, she has a euphoric giggly and creative high, she’s our go to girl for a social party.

Genetics: bubblegum cut x w.w auto
Type: Indica/Sativa Hybrid
Height: 70-90cm
Flowering time: 65-70 Days

[emoji860]Grow summery:
This plant was topped at the 5-6 node.
She was with 2 other plants under a k3 L600 for half of her life ( the first 30 days or so) and then 30 days alone. She was in my basement when it flooded, left in the dark and out of the tent for a few days. ( In the beginning of her life) she never had any real problems besides the flood ordeal.
Training her was a pleasure. She forms many cola when main arms are pulled down.

[emoji419] Note: Cleaning Tea Brewer :
All residue from brewing should be washed off and the brewer should be disinfected. Use antibacterial soap, bleach (2%) or Hydrogen Peroxide. Rinse brewer thoroughly after disinfecting.

[emoji625]Tip: So here are our 10 top tips for successfully growing
autoflowers.

1. Size of Pot

Even for dwarf autos you need to be using a 3 gallon pot to give the plant enough space to develop a good rootball.

2. A good light mix

A nice light mix such as 50:50 coco:perlite is best as it makes sure you get a good wet-dry cycle.

3. AVOID OVERWATERING AT ALL COSTS

4. Give NO NUTRIENTS AT ALL until the autoflowering cannabis plant has developed 4 nodes. The dose should only be introduced gradually and in increments.

5. Continue vegetative feed until ALL upward growth stops. The auto will have started flowering before this happens (in a 9-10 week auto, you would expect to continue using veg nutes until week 6)

6. Ensure the genetic material (that’s technical talk for Cannabis Seeds guys!) that you start off with is of good, well bred and viable stock. Check what other growers are / have been growing and how well the strain did.

7. For maximum grams (oz) / foot, make sure you have 16 dwarf/short autos in a 4 ft x 4 ft (1.2m x 1.2m) area

8. Go easy on the nutes. Generally less is better in most cases.

9. Don’t give them too much light to start with. Go for a low watt fixture for seedling growth, increasing the amount of light as the plant grows.

10. Autos don’t appreciate being transplanted:

They just don’t have time to recover from transplant shock in their mad dash from seed to harvest. So don’t do it! Either sow the auto seed direct into their 3 gallon pot or better still, follow the direction below:


Cut the bottom off a “party cup” or 7-10cm pot.
Place 2″ of damp coco:perlite in the bottom of a 3 gallon pot
Fill the larger, 3 gallon pot with coco-perlite (dry)
Bury the “party cup” or 7-10cm pot half way down in the 3 gallon pot. Fill this with coco-perlite too.
Now plant your germinated seedling into the party cup and water in as usual.
When you water your autoflowering seedling (and remember no.3 above!!) make sure you water ONLY in the small pot for the first 10-14 days. This will ensure that the seedling gets the water it requires (and depending on its age, the nutes too).

In the meantime the auto’s tap root will hunt downwards with accelerated growth hunting out the damp layer of coco-perlite it just knows exists at the bottom of the 3 gallon pot. The tap root sends out a vast network of smaller fine root hairs also looking for this source of water.

Autoflower growing tips
Result?

This method of growing autos pushes your autoflowering plant to develop a highly developed root system that will accelerate root growth (and thereby maintain larger plant growth) during the first few weeks of its life.

It also avoids transplant shock which, given an auto’s automatic race towards harvest, it cannot recover from

[emoji860] I will be using this as my template.
