Let’s make some magic! Out with the old and in with the new grow! I have two auto seeds germinating in paper towels! Memphisto’s Strawberry Nuggets x Super Orange Haze and Autoseeds Gorilla Glue. These were both freebies.

Two ziplock bags with folded up paper towels inside. The bags are labeled with masking tape “Memphisto’s Strawberry Nuggets x Super Orange Haze” and “Autoseeds Gorilla Glue.” There are small seed packages on top of the plastic bags with the same labels.

Growmies! The tent is clean and now it’s bean selecting time! Do I give Cadillac Rainbow another go? I want to grow 2 plants in my 2x2. I’m thinking Strawberry Nuggets x Super Orange Haze by Mephisto & Cadillac Rainbow or Gorilla Glue by Auto Seeds.

New tent is coming along nicely! It’s so much bigger than my 2x2! I’m hoping to finish putting it together this weekend!! Whooo!!!

My set up with my 2x2 tent. Moved my Spider Farmer tent to the side and the much larger AC Infinity tent in its place.

Cadillac Rainbow Auto: Day 75 of 85. She smells awful, her leaves are almost all gone, and her trichomes are still clear. I’m going to toss her. I learned a lot with this grow. I definitely need more perlite mixed in with my soil.

Good morning! ☀️
Insomnia is zero fun. I’ve been awake since 2am. I got a flu and Covid-19 shot yesterday. My body is achy.
Does this look like the face of someone who brought this on herself?

It's happening 😁 I use to do the paper towel germination, until I started reamending my soil. Now I go straight into my super soil with some moisture on the top. This will be my dessert run with Biscotti, Chocolate Mint OG and Chocolope and a side of Kushmints #cannabis #thirtyfourthstreetseedco

Cadillac Rainbow Auto: Day 74 of 85. She’s not looking great. Her leaves that were curling yesterday are now dried out and wilted. The pot is still heavy and the soil feels damp. I put the fan on higher and pointed it directly at the soil.

Great general information in this article about caring for a cannabis plant. It also explains watering very well.

Update: Thank you everyone for the help! She’s waterlogged from the sand trapping moisture in the soil. I appreciate how quickly you all figured it out!

Cadillac Rainbow Auto: Day 73 of 85. Growmies, her leaves are twisting & canoeing. I can’t figure out what’s wrong. I moved the lights up in case it’s heat or light stress. The leaves are not dry to the touch. They are weirdly squishy and wet. Help!

Cadillac Rainbow Auto: Day 72 of 85. She’s brightly colorful, chunking up, and one of her buds looks like a Christmas tree! Her water needs have slowed down. She’s in her final stage of life.

Today was harvest day for the first autoflower I’ve ever grown. I’m not sure how I feel about autoflowers yet, but I already have a load of seeds to try. 😀

That one person can drag us into a war without consulting or even notifying Congress, or our allies, or fully explaining to the American people why this is necessary, is absolutely bonkers.

Reminder that Congress has the power to stop all of this. Where the hell are they?

I cleaned my snips! Cadillac Rainbow is sticky! I bought a bunch of 70% alcohol swabs during the pandemic and they are perfect for cleaning the blades!
