The top is going to look like the himalayas bro i cant wait!
Dense frosty peaks all around! Get the ski goggles out!
To be fair though, this whole thread, growing and outcomes aside... I just want to say well done for handling the workload, the glueberry alone probably required the mental toughness of a monk!
I think you have earnt a well deserved rest... NOTTTT... whats next dude..BETTER GET TO IT - YOU WILL NEVER REST!!
Heres a great big slap to keep you going!
Ha ha, cheers NG mate. Sometimes I'd open up the tent and just go 'fuuuuuck, where do I start...'!
Now that the Autos are done and dusted, jarred and curing away, I've moved the Blue Amnesia from the 1.2m x 1.2m tent into the old 1.4m x 1.4m tent... just a tiny bit more room around the sides now, plus better 6 inch intake and extraction, and a full ceiling of Skylines.... I have one 800, four 400's and two 100's all up, I dunno if the tent can take anymore strain.... it's leaning to one side a little!
It's lights off now, so I can't show you just yet, but maybe tonight, I'll try and get some pics.
Back to the Autos, as I said, all jarred up now. It's so nice to see so many full jars of herb!
No stems, no seeds, no sticks...... some of that sticky icky icky, put it in the air....
Here's some dry weights for you.... all solid buds, no fluff.
Night Queen 6.10oz (173g)
Toofless Alien 8.56oz (243g)
.... and....
Glueberry OG.....the Siamese twin..... 2 plants from one seed, one much more dominant than the other.
The runt gave 1.02oz (29g)
The Big Sis gave a stonking 14.52oz (412g)
15+ ounces from one seed!
Harvesting this lot was not as much of a pain as expected, the nugs were all beautifully shaped, instead of the usual knobbly jobbies I get when using Top Shooter etc.... no foxtailing at all, just nice, evenly matured, really sticky bud.... and loads of it.
I saved all the sugarleaf and any lower fluff to make some more Canna Coconut oil.
The Toofless Alien and Glueberry really delivered, and I'm well pleased because I kept this grow as simple as possible with regard to all the nutrients and additives I gave.
The Alien in particular gave me no trouble at all during the grow. She literally grew herself. I have one last seed, and it's a limited edition
@mephisto strain, no longer available
The Glueberry needed considerable effort to get her to perform.... but what a show she gave us!
To knock up (almost) 'a pound a da weed' from one plant, especially an Auto, not just once, but consistently.... (this is my 4th Glueberry over 13 ounces), it's every grower's dream!
The Night Queen was perhaps a little lightweight, but that's probably because she had a lockout around week 4.... a crucial time, and she's an early finisher, so she didn't have all the time she needed to really pack it on. Nevertheless, the bud she gave is the usual super strong heavy hitter.
Very strong mango smell, and I remember a previous mango Night Queen also giving similar issues in veg and comparable final amounts. The strawberry milkshake pheno is a bigger producer, and can take a stronger feed.
Quality wise, this is probably the best crop I have produced.
So after 5 years of insisting on using expensive late bloom boosters, I am never going to use them again.
I also didn't use the (pricey) H&G product 'Amino Treatment'. It contains silicon as well as the essential Amino Acids that the plants needs..... I found this made no difference, if anything, not using it allowed me to keep constant levels of A&B during veg instead of having to reduce A&B as I increased the added Amino Treatment in order to maintain the same EC.
On the subject of EC... apart from being at EC 0.7 for the first 2 weeks, they remained on EC 0.8 for the entire grow. There was no need to go round pushing up the EC... they just took what they could get from the (mostly once a day) feeds.
Anyway, enough rambling.... I'll put up some pics soon! You're gonna love what's going on with the Blue Amnesia!
