That's a sweet drying machine!!!

Thanks, it really is amazing and much needed as I can't get a stable temp/humidity where I live that would do it otherwise and believe me I've tried!

Cannatrol dry complete and all bagged up to cure. Yum!

Was incredibly difficult not to take a tester here and there but no, two weeks before I try at a minimum.

Final two are getting closer, need to decide whether to wait for the FM or do dry them separately.

That’s awesome Len! Very nice haul! Dang man, the self control you have, very impressed! I was out in the shed cutting branches off my plant and throwing them in the oven!

We'll see how long I last...lol! I do have lots left from the last grow to tide me over though.

Im a pro smoker also! Working on the growing part!

I knew I'd convert you one day...lol!

Thanks man, appreciate it, I just really like and enjoy the quick turnaround so can grow more variety but I love my photos as well.

Speaking of which...

These are my two outdoor photoperiod strains for this year. Kindly sourced from our man on the forum @Trustfall / Tenguseedco. They are Topanga Canton x Okie WC on the left and Death Star x Lemon Gojo on the right. Very excited to have these growing in my garden this season. Particularly the Topanga Canyon as I live about 15miles away from it.

I just like making photo copies of my plant too much to chase the auto flower expense.

Yeh, that's totally fair enough.

I really, really want to try that but not sure how I'd fare at all. Very interested to give it a go at some point though.

Congrats on another successful harvest LFG!

Haven't updated in a while so here we go.

Finally chopped the final two a few days back and the Funky Magnifera turned out in to a monster in the end, I didn't think I was going to have enough room in the cannatrol for her but all was ok, just! And the Jimmy Jacks was pretty lovely as well. Some beautiful colour and buds for her and the FM. I really did well with the humidity and slightly cooler temps at the end there which helped hugely but I absolutely have to get a proper dehumidifier option in to my grow somehow, need that AC Infinity one to be released asap. Anyway, that's for the future, they are happily drying away now.

Thank you for your service ladies!

For my first autopot and canna coco grow I'd say that was a pretty good result. I have many plans for the next one though now I have a handle on it all. They are going to be turbo charged...lol!

But that will have to wait till mid-July as I'm away to Europe from mid-June so won't be starting another tent grow till I'm back sadly but that's ok because...

 

[lenhug]

...I have these two outdoor photoperiods to keep me busy for the season and till then!

Here they are yesterday after being topped, coming on v nicely. I've had them outdoors all day then in overnight for last few days but they'll be out there permanently from next week sometime I think. Im planning on topping them at leats once more as well and feeding/top dressing them with CoM Veg and Flower feed along with their EWC. Our kind neighbour will water (just fill up the auto watering bases) and feed them whilst I'm away.

As a reminder these are Topanga Canton x Okie WC and Death Star x Lemon Gojo.

 

[lenhug]

Happy growing all, I hope your new season plants are all coming along well!

 

[Timv]

I've got the bloody lot I think (using their Canna Coco with Perlite 70/30):

Canna A & B
Canna PK 13/14
Canna Rhizotonic
Canna Boost Accelerator
Canna Cannazym
Canna Cal Mag

I might just go with A&B to start with (like Autpotamus uses to great effect, if you've seen him). Tbh it's all a bit overwhelming, I might bend you ear if that's ok for some advice as like I said I've never used liquid nutes before!

How ml per gal did you use with this line I use the same exact nutes and I think I nute locked my ladies

Let me dig out my feeding chart for you!

 

[lenhug]

Here you go @Timv

I just created and followed this from the Canna website but this time round just used A&B as a default yardstick. Plan to use all next grow.

I was also v conservative so think I could push a lot more next time round.

 

[lenhug]

Well the final two are now dried and bagged/curing and got just shy of 0.5lb off the Funky Magnifera and 0.25lb rom the Jimmy Jacks which is incredibly pleasing. Think it reallky shows off the power, capability and huge potential of the autopots. I have much more planned for the next grow. Think I want to set myself the target of growing a 1lb plant!

Now on to the outdoor grow, I'll post some pics up over the weekend. Coming along nicely and I also couldn't resist another, details to follow...

 

[lenhug]

Better late than never...lol!

Here are the Topanga Canyon OGx and Death Starx enjoying the outdoors today (day 58). They've both had one feed so far, another to come tomorrow and two rounds of topping (not sure I'll do any more).

The Topanga is very happy whilst the Death Star has stuttered a little but coming back now. She didn't like a little heatwave we had and also had an issuer with one of her main fan leaves but she'll be fine I think. Definitely the more stockier looking of the two.

And here are the details!

I was just mulling over a few weeks back how much I love Cherry Pie which I have an edible of every night before bed and soothes all those aches and pains away. Then I was like, why on earth am I not growing it then?!

Did some searching for a breeder/supplier and found Holi Moli Seeds out in the desert for some seeds. Now I know proper CP genetics for this are hard to find and/or expensive usually so I'm going in with an open mind and have added her to this years outdoor (photoperiod) grow. All be it a little late in the day! Definitely moving more and more towards those photos @Greenjourneyman ! I should be able to get her going before I disappear for a month in June/July but it's gonna be close!

I have also finally solved one of my main issues with my grows which was stretching seedlings (particularly an issue when the clock is ticking with autos) and just not developing as quick as I wanted. Take a look take at her on days 14 & 15 below.

Just waiting on some coco to arrive and hope to transplant her tomorrow or the weekend at the latest, she is ready!
