Indoor Samsara Flash Babylon indoor tent grow.

[evln00b]

Hey all,

Back once again, hopefully I can follow this one through this time.

I'm actually late with this thread as she has been growing for about 5 weeks now, currently in :-

Secret Jardin DS90 mk2,
400w Powerplant HPS,
4" RVK extractor,
4" Rhino Pro Filter,
Passive intake with an oscillating stack fan for air distribution.

11 Litre Pots
Canna Terra Professional Plus Soil

Canna Nutes :-

Terra Vega
Terra Flores
akTRIvator powder
Cannazym
Rhizotonic
Boost
PK 13 / 14
.............

So I potted this lady straight into soil in a 4" pot and started her off under a cool white flouro for the first two weeks of her life, after she showed her 1st set of true fans I gave her the akTRIvator with a half strength dose of vega and rhizotonic.

I let her Veg under the flouro until she was approx 5 - 6" with no more nutes apart from the above dose.

Afterwards I potted her straight into the 11 litre *25cm pot, giving another half dose of akTRIvator, rhizotonic and vega and popped her under the 400 HPS in the tent.

At the same time I also topped her at the 3rd true node and within 3 days she had recovered and is now nicely growing 8 main head sites.

I did make the mistake of giving her full strength nutes twice in that week and ended up with some minor nute burn on the new growth.

Since then I have been dosing her with full strength nutes (vega, rhizo and zym) once per week and water the rest of the time, letting the soil dry completely between watering for 2-3 days *depending on how she's drinking*.

Last week she started to show signs of going into flower and this week she has the start of small buds forming so yesterday at feeding I switched my nute's to Flores, Rhizo, Zym and Boost.

I'll continue the same nute regime until flushing (with the addition of PK 13/ 14 once next week and once the week after)

I expect to harvest her around the 20th July if samsara's claims are correct.

She's currently standing at 34" tall *soil to tip* and looking pretty sweet if I do say so myself... I'll keep you guys updated on this one, look forward to hearing you're opinions.

**pics coming in a second**

Best pic I can get of her justnow, I'll update again soon with a better one !

Wow she looks great evln00b ! That thing is gonna turn into a beast in the next few weeks :clap: I think Samsara has some really good genetics. I grew the Shot Adrenaline and it turned into a 2oz monster.

Thanks man, I'm actually impressed myself, this is my first true auto grow, I've run photo's and stitch's superauto's before.

this seed was actually a freebie and I thought hell I'll give it a run, I wasn't even going to bother writing it up until I seen the size she's achieving.....
So I thought that's gotta be pretty big for an auto... right ??, I know I'll jump on AFN and throw up a diary lol.

Right now I'm also running 4 diff photo strains alongside this, it'll be interesting to see how they all compare, if I had one complaint it would be that samsara claim 65 days from seed, but I cant see this one being ready that quick, however we shall see, she has sure been fast up until this point, and she reacted great to topping which I was weary of doing as I thought it would seriously stunt her, but this is an experimental run for me so it was worth trying, now I'm bloody glad I did it lol.

I should also add I plan on lollipopping her probably next week, chances are I'll strip the bottom popcorn too and leave all that goodness to shoot to the tips, my tent is quite tight packed right now so not much light is getting through the canopy anyway so there's no point in the plant straining to make nugs where they don't wanna grow.

autos are the future bro get ready

goodluck mate

If it's anything like the Shot Adrenaline I grew it will take 11 or 12 weeks to finish, but it's worth the wait. Still faster than photos.

Here's hoping

 

[evln00b]

Done my lollipopping yesterday, also propped her up a little with some wire and green sticks I noticed she had a couple of branches that were less stable than the others...

I'll snap a couple of pics later for you guys when my light comes on.

 

[evln00b]

Snapped a couple but they come out blurry... here's the best of the three....



She's looking pretty decent, all the signs of nute burn have pretty much disappeared now so I'm pretty happy about that... I'll give it about a week before I update again as both pics look pretty much the same and there's not much progression at present.
