I completed my 'Auto Livers" grow. Thanks
@stan_mephisto and the gang for sharing this wonderful freebie.
She finished in 74 days. She grew to be 24" tall and about 20 inches wide. She didn't take much more room than the width of the 10 gallon pot.
The yield on this thing came out great for such a small plant. I ended up with 142 grams of dried and jarred nugs.
This was the 3rd round on this particular 'No-till' container. For those that don't know, with the no-till containers the soil isn't disturbed or tilled between rounds, ingredients and mulch are just applied to the surface. In the middle, the mulch is pulled back each round, where a 'patty' of fresh seed starter is placed. Usually an inch thick, placed on the original plug of seed starter from the very first round.
Here is a pic at harvest time. This is how she looked straight out of the grow room. She had some fade but grew great! Very easy grow.
Next, I clipped a bunch of leaves to make her pretty for the camera. She is one frosty girl. There is a frosty layer, and what I can only call the glue layer of frost. First she got frosty, then the glue came out at the end.
During the first 60 days, I staked all these lower branches down to get them to grow out like that. Then the lower branches all were tied up with Velcro for extra support about 2 weeks before harvest. With the lower branches, I have found that whether they 'need' the support or not, the buds seem to get fatter when tied up. (That trick is straight out of the tomato/ pepper grower's bag of tricks.)
Here is another nice side shot of the lower branches.
Even with what appears to be quite a bit of foliage, all the lower inside stuff finished just right and I ended up with virtually no popcorn or fluffy stuff on the inside. The buds are super dense, hard, and gooooey!
I have smoked some of this, its killer. The scent is kind of like fruity pebbles. The only MG strain that I have found that smells like it is Fugue State. They smell exactly the same and I love it. I will be curous to see how the scents and taste matures after a month or two in the jar.
I can't wait to see this strain in some more of the new ones in the future. I also think it would be a great stand alone strain as is, base on this grow.
Cheers
