Smowkabowl's 1st Grow OG Kush Auto

Smowkabowl Two plants had a rough start and only one survived. Two plants had an easy start with a minor deformity to one. The rough start was because I tried to germinate 2 of the seeds in pure coco. One germinated and barely survived (photo of seedling with burnt edges) the other got stuck upside down trapped in its shell for too long and its root rotted. The easy start was because I germinated the seeds directly in the coco mixed with the living soil amendments. The soil had been cooking for about 18 days before germination. The seedlings color is perfect and they show no signs of stress. Hopefully things will go well.

Smowkabowl They have really started to take off this week it seems (since this is my 1st grow I don't really know what to expect) after a little scare on day 10. I messed with #1 and #2 on day 9, pushed them up straight and tamped down the soil at their base. Came in the morning of day 10 and found them leaning over and almost touching the soil (should have let them go and LST from there) so I propped them back up and gave 'em a little support and turned up the fan. They never stopped growing or anything and probably could do without the support but I'll leave 'em til the stems bulk up. That should happen this week. Other than that the only concerns I have now is how much water and how often? Right now I have been giving them 4 ounces per day in big circles around the plant for the last 3 straight days. Temperatures have been between 80 and 84 F with RH ranging from 59 to 67%. Their color looks good and I'm not seeing any signs of deficiency or anything else to give me concern. Peace. Thanks for checking out the grow @simps @melly @Poleeg1986 @iHateSativa @Bulbi @GrowThatLettuce

Smowkabowl It has been a good week despite a little nitrogen burn, which doesn't seem to have slowed them down any. This strain seems as though it would be a good candidate for LST. They are really starting to branch and I have been doing some leaf tucking. I still don't know what I'm doing or what to expect so this grow is all about learning and not trying to kill 'em.

Smowkabowl It was a very good week. The plants more than doubled in size growing 6 inches and show their sex. All females and no hermies thankfully. They should really start to stretch this week and begin to flower by the end of this week. I can't wait to see what happens. Btw, I need to thin these bushes out a little. Anyone got some advice on which leaves I should be trimming? Peace. @xaviaskunk @Simps @melly @Poleeg1986 @iHateSativa @Bulbi @Growthatlettuce @ChefDan420 @Cabinriver @Spainauto

Smowkabowl It seems that growth has slowed and flowering has started. I was hoping for more of a stretch. In anticipation of the beginning of flower they all got top dressed with 3 oz. of soil amendments and RO water with calmag. I saw a few brown spots and the new growth seems on the light side, hopefully, that will be corrected after a few feedings. Removed some of the inner leaves to improve circulation. Other than that, everything looks good, temperatures, humidity and CO2 all in a good range.

Smowkabowl Okay. so last week I thought growth had stopped when flowering started. Well, I was wrong. They were in preflower and began to stretch. the runt, #2, grew 6 inches, 20 inches total height, during the week and outgrew her sisters whom came in at; #1, +3 inches, 16 inches total and, #3, +5 inches, 17 total inches. And they may not be done yet but they are probably getting close because it looks like they may be in full flower now. @NewbieMJ00 @BeardedTree @NorthernKnight @TheWeedMan @MMJMD @xaviaskunk @Simps @melly @Poleeg1986 @iHateSativa @Bulbi @GrowThatLettiuce @ChefDan420 @Cabiriver @Spainauto

Smowkabowl End of week 7, day 49 update. I think they have finished their final stretch. Hopefully they start packing on some bud weight. Anyway, they seem to be doing well and are starting to put out some trichomes. I thinned out the foliage and exposed the bud sites to the light. Has anyone ever fed their plants brown sugar dissolved in H2O? If so, how much per gallon? Thanks for tuning in. Any questions or comments are greatly appreciated. Peace.

Smowkabowl Looking nice. End of week 8, day 56 update. They are really starting to stack up the buds and the trichomes are starting to come out. Also the leaves are starting to put out some red colors. They should look amazing in a couple of weeks.

Smowkabowl End of week 9 update. These plants have surprised me every step of the way and turned out to be some bud machines. #1 and #3 have tightly spaced nodes and the buds are stacked. Some are going to be 8 to 12 inches long. Once they start swelling up we'll see how thick they will get. I'm predicting some banana size buds. #2 is taller with more spacing between nodes and has buds from head to toe. She is going to produce a lot of nuggets. The purple color is deep and mesmerizing. I can't wait until harvest. Two more weeks maybe. I added some pictures of the one other plant in my grow. She is a Fast Buds West Coast OG Auto. She is 11 days older than the OGK's but I never started a diary on her because I didn't think she was going to survive at all. Her name is Florence and she was born the week of the hurricane in September. She is the lone survivor of the first 5 seeds that germinated and died over the first week. But she hung in there and is about ready for harvest. She is only 15 inches tall but packed with frosty dank buds. I'm curious to see her final dry weight, there is some density to her buds. She is still swelling so a few more days at least. Thanks for taking the time. All questions or comments are greatly appreciated. Happy growing everyone.

Smowkabowl The leaves are turning and the buds are swelling.... and I can't wait to taste 'em. I think they may have another week or so to go. Thanks for stopping by and all questions or comments are greatly appreciated. Peace.

Smowkabowl End of week 11, day 77 for the Sensible Seeds OG Kush Autos and we are done with our first grow. I was going to let #1 and #3 go a couple more days but because we had an ice storm come through yesterday I now have a tree lying in my driveway and I won't have much time for gardening the next couple of days so I went ahead and unplugged the light for the next 48 hours before I cut 'em down to dry. #2 was going to get pulled today regardless but the other 2 are close enough it shouldn't hurt 'em…. as a matter of fact I may have waited too long to harvest all of 'em but I wanted to push 'em and let 'em swell as much as possible. It will only get better with each grow. Anyway, for a 1st grow everything went well, I learned a lot (got so much more to learn too), I didn't kill 'em all and I got some all the way to harvest. What that harvest will yield is anybody's guess.... I am hoping for 112 to 140 grams from the 3 plants. I will update with harvest results soon. As always, questions, comments or critiques are welcome and greatly appreciated.

Smowkabowl This is a potent smoke, it starts out euphoric for 20 to 30 minutes before the indica kicks in and a body calming sensation washes over your body. If your on the couch you may want to stay there. If your up and moving you'll zone in to whatever it is your doing. Be careful not to over do it though if you don't want to crash and get heavy eyed. I think these were harvested at a good time for me since I prefer the sativa effects. And they will only get better with a longer cure. I'm going to try and let 'em cure for another 2 weeks before sample 'em again. The buds ranged in density by plant. #1 had the largest yield at 45g but turned out to be the airiest after the dry. #2 came in at 37g and had small dense buds. #3 weighed in at 39g and had the biggest and densest buds. Total: 121g or 4.3 oz.of pure kush madness. Check out my new diary starting in a few days. Peace.00
