Unwrapped it. Doesn’t look great but could be worse. I. Gonna let it air out and hope it thickens and hardens up. Figured it needed a friend to help hold it steady.

So I did a thing last night. I popped 9 seeds in a bath. I figure between those, the blue frankenshine and the bog sour bluetooth I should be able to get the 5 females I’m after.


Thanks again @I.am.human @Cartwright @duo. Can’t wait to watch these grow!

@Kasper0909 and @RainToday were super generous and are sending me some fem auto seeds to get my auto grow back on track. Y’all are some great people!

Another slow day at th shop so I’m just staring at my phone. Been looking into nutes for this year. I was using foxfarm but liquid ferts are expensive so I’ve been looking at dry amendments. Gaia green seems promising but not sure yet. If anyone reads this and would like to lend some friendly advice id appreciate it. I’m trying to stay away from salts.

Also been eyeing greengro pride lands line of stuff too

Look into the Dr earth, not sure why but that stuff has done me right. Cheaper on ebay for the larger bags.
They also have flower girl for flowering.
Just mix in the veg ferts when you mix the soil and it should be available by the time the plants need it. Then start top dressing with flower girl a couple weeks before flower. Has all the good stuff like kelp in it

Happy 420 everyone! Bit cold out today but nice enough to work in the yard. On the agenda today is lawn care. Mower is down so I gotta fix that. Wife cousin was cutting our grass for dirt cheap last year but he’s not working out area anymore so now I’m trying to get my riding mower going cuz I don’t wanna push if I don’t have to. Got the two back tires changed now time to see if she still fires up.

Forgot to update so let’s catch up. Mower is fixed. Choke is messed up, pretty sure I’m missing a spring or linkage somewhere but I got it held in place with a clamp for now. Glad I checked the oil because the whole crank case was filled with fuel. Flushed out and fresh oil, charged up the battery. She runs great for a 42 year old riding mower.


I received some more beans from @Kasper0909 over the weekend. Two of the critical red hourglass auto fem went right into a bath. I added the rest to what I’m now referring to as “The Kasper Collection”

Also put the other photos that germed in dirt, lost a rotten pineapple so I threw another one in water. All the others germed fine. Went to the garden store near me in search of Dr earth. Found another brand instead, espoma. It’s organic and was on sale so we will give it a shot. Ended up buying two bags of happy frog that I probably shouldn’t have spent the money on. I’m curious how my soil will fair compared to the happy frog.

White Widow x Auto Critical

Reversed White Widow

Auto White Widow | Linda Seeds

The cannabis plants of these cannabis seeds are direct descendants of the great White Widow variety. Easy to grow and effective to enjoy. In the flowering phase, this Indica classic and Cannabis Ruderalis cross produces large, firm buds that develop a distinct aroma as they grow.

The Auto White Widow Strain - clear design and high yield

Within ten to twelve weeks, the strain will germinate into a plant ready for harvesting, which can reach a medium height (about 150cm) and will be rewarded with a large harvest.

The buds will be covered with almost excessive resin and will generate a clear, even effect when used. The high leads to physical relaxation as well as in beautiful harmony the mind knows how to captivate.

With THC values of up to 20% and a slightly higher than regular CBD content, the Autoflowering variety can also be used for therapeutic purposes. Under ideal conditions, yields of up to 250 grams per plant (600W/m²) can be expected.

Lots of THC (THC 15-20%), lots of yield (250g/plant), lots of cannabis plant (150cm), lots of free time !!

Auto Critical + | Linda Seeds

Our feminized Auto Critical+ Strain is extremely popular with many commercial growers. Of course we take this into account and are happy to give a quantity discount! Please feel free to contact us!

Stable growth, reliable production (THC 15-20%) and high yields in a short time are the unbeatable advantages of this cannabis plant.

Auto Critical+ seeds have been bred to produce, just like the original Critical+, a strong plant with dense and large buds and indica turn. The cannabis plants remain at a manageable height of 60-80cm and yet yields are impressively high.

About 9 weeks after sowing, Auto Critical+ is ready for harvest. If you grow the seeds outdoors, you should sow the hemp seeds from the end of May until mid June at the latest. The harvest time is then from the beginning to the end of August, depending on the sowing.

When grown outside, you can achieve a harvest of about 100g/plant. If you sow later and the plants do not reach maturity until the end of September, the yield will also be somewhat reduced. Indoors grown you can expect a yield of 12 to 16 plants/m² with 500-600g under 600W with 12 to 16 plants/m². Critical+ Automatic Cannabis seeds are an indica/sativa cross with Ruderalis genes, like all self-flowering cannabis strains.

The indica dominance is evident in the effect it produces when smoked. Auto Critical Plus has a very relaxing effect and slightly anaesthetizes the body. The grass of Critical+ Automatic has a sweet skunk aroma. The potency of the final product from Auto Critical+ marijuana seeds is wonderfully balanced. You will not get a “killer grass”, but a balanced “stoned” one.

All the photos I put into dirt came up except for one rotten pineapple. Also had to germ another RP before this, that one just got dropped in some dirt so hopefully we will have at least 2 going.


The two circle red hourglass germed nicely and have been put in a 15 gal fabric pot full of happy frog. Blue frankenshine is coming along nicely and BOG sour bluetooth is doing ok as well. I sprayed for PM and bugs but must have made the mix too strong. Everything I sprayed got some burning. On a brighter note no PM!

Good evening OG! Got some things done today. Lawn cut and fertilized. Green house garden bed is amended and I planted tomatoes, green beans, lettuce, and a couple marigolds. Tonight after the little one goes to bed I have to up pot some veggie plants and label them.

Here’s a quick example of how I plant my tomato starts.

Start by triming most of the lower growth. Leave at least 2-3 estblablished sets of leaves/nodes.

Then plant as deep as you can without letting the leaves rest on the soil. Trim any leaf tips that rest on the soil to prevent soil born diseases and fungus.

The afghani auto that snapped is doing well. The wound is a little brown but not soft or wet so looking good for now. Looks like I have a bit of septoria, possible calcium deficiency. But I’m betting septoria since I see it in some tomatoes as well. The green house is super humid the last few days due to rain.

The two critical red hourglass came up and are doing well

She’s showing some nice bud sites now. The other one still hasnt shown sex yet. I see what could be the start of a female flower but not sure yet. Few more days should do it. It’s starting to stretch so that’s a good sign. Also did some super cropping
