Indoor Frogster Autopot Grow:- Auto Blackberry Kush & Auto Mazar

OK.... As promised, took a couple of pics outside the tent.... BUSH FLASHING... In better - natural light.

They didn't want to stop sunbathing and leave the tent, the leaves started to drop after just 3 or 4 mins... so... just a quick snap, and back in the tent they go.

Checked logs for Temps & RH - all fine.

Not a lot to add... Autopots are doing their thing.... Grow my Beauties.... Grow..... [HASHTAG]#showusyourbush[/HASHTAG]


DAY 15 - Auto Blackberry Kush

DAY 15 - Auto Mazar

Thought I would share this with you all, it is a little video I made today, showing my fog maker in action.

Very good at keeping the Temps down and the RH % Up.

 
Day 16

Just watching the plants growing.... nothing much to report.... Added some extra Temp / RH monitoring to intake and exhaust points, I like my Data..... Checked the lights for Hot Spots.... Nadda!

The leaf curl (reported in previous posts) appears to be only happening on the two Auto Mazars, so the chances are it is strain related... It looks to be not as apparent on the new leaf, now the plants are developing. I think it's one of two things...
  • wind burn (the most likely, especially now it's looking better on new growth and plants are getting older).. although it is only a light breeze / leaf flutter, and definitely not any more than I would expect in nature... Maybe it was just too much in early life?
or
  • they are at the upper limit of temps and showing early heat stress... ( I can't believe it's this, I have a total handle & control on temp and RH) The current day logs show steady at 28Deg 60%RH and night 22.5Deg 55%RH. Unless this strain likes lower temps? No reports of this.
So, I am changing nothing and observing everything, but all said and done - at the moment, I don't think a little leaf curl is the end of the world.

Try and get some Pics tomorrow. :cheers:

Day 17

Today we have had a "Day of Rest", well actually I had friends around all day.... smoke, talk, vape, eat, drink, etc....

But I promised some pics, so I have just dived in the tent to take a few of the growth and note the progress and check for issues at the same time.

The Nutrient Res is dropping, about an inch and a half today, so they are feeding. I think all but one plants are finished with hand watering and look to be happy sucking from the Autopot.

I am sure you can also see the explosion in growth on this Auto Blackberry Kush (below)... This lady is already showing her bits if you look close.

I know the colour is off a bit, as these pics were shot under lights and my white balance thingy is a bit off white. But you get the idea. In daylight they look very nice.

Nothing more to report on the Leaf Curl issue, No change... No extra Leaf curl, but the already curled leaves still the same, they probably will always be like it now. But as previously said... I am just watching over it, sticking to the original grow plan.

For the next week they slowly start getting a bit more feed, The Nutrients are doing what they advertise (regarding being PH tuned for my local Tap water) I just add A+B Grow to a res of water and... Bang On! add a few extras... PH & EC holds nice.... looking good, but early days, time will tell.

So, for the next 5 days, we are planning to run with the following settings:-
  • 20 on / 4 off
  • Day- 28 Deg and slowly drifting around 55%RH
  • Night 23 Deg also about 55%RH, with a bit of extra mist Dusk & Dawn.
Happy Bunny.... Enjoy the rest of your day..... I am !
 
Day 18

Yawn...... It is all fine.... 5 Girls doing well, all growing without a care.

The ambient air temp is up in the low 30's and RH is low... So the fogger/mister is working 24hrs a day to keep the Temp & Humidity where I want it, a struggle but just holding it.

I topped the Nutrient Res up again today, with another 10 Ltrs of Grow Nutrient Mix..... They sure drink.

I am still hand watering the baby Auto NightQueen, the youngest and smallest by more that a week, but she will kick the dummy tomorrow, and drink with the rest like a big girl.

It looks like I might need to run 2 Nutrient Res's... 1 x Grow Res for the younger plants & 1 x Bloom Res for the 2 plants about to go into flower, I had a staggered start (about 10 days difference - from first to final seed to pop it's head).

But that's not a problem If I decide to go that way in a few days time, as I had already made my feed system adaptable via inline valves. and I have a spare Res I could use.

Anyway.... Enjoy the Sun.... I'll check in again tomorrow...

Day 19

Everything is proceeding well, all on track and healthy... I am really impressed with the Autopots, they seem to be doing the business.

I decided to have a change of plant positioning under the lights, so snapped a few pics as I changed things about.

First.... My fav out of this grow.... Auto Blackberry Kush x 2 plants
