Took one of my autos, and put her in an aquarium that recently opened up. Tied her to the oak branch with yarn, and wrapped around a couple times for stability.

Removed pretty much all fan leaves without sugar on them. They seem to be OK with it. New babies are just hanging out down below.

8 photos starting on a hydro grow.

How much longer do they need? 3-4 weeks?

This is a GOOD VIBES post. The community is awesome, and you are all professional growers. Hoping to get to 2.5 million seeds after breeding so I can buy that ranch for my wife. What do you think? Wish me luck.

Ok, hopefully this doesn't break the rules. MVB seeds seem mostly fine. YAY. BUY MVB SEEDS. I had literally no issue except missing seeds. And then, the weird brigade came after me. If you are giving me shit for asking about missing seeds, you can suck my dick. That part will prob break the rules, so fuck you. If it is some other random grower, then they can just shush.

Your seeds are falling behind in a grow competition, as well. I wanted to post more about these autos, but figured it would be a bit embarrassing. If you actually give a shit, let me know. Otherwise, block me, and I'll go back to the other subreddits to just let them know regarding your current practice.

This was removed from the MVB subreddit, even though I believe it was within the guidelines. Regardless, I had 10 packs that all had 3 seeds instead of 5. I paid for 5. Not the end of the world. I am supposed to be receiving the remainder in an envelope soon. Apparently an actual shipment was too much. Not sure I get the logic, but apparently it is simpler? OK. Anyway, just check your packs. You might be shorter on seeds than you think. Also, my Hoku seeds are just swirling around the USPS network. I wish we could get our mail service back.

Defoliated a tiny bit down below on the left lady. These two GMO photos are filling up almost my whole 4x4. Leaf rub smells great. Also, a strawberry plant says hello.

Decided to try to experiment with the ability of aquaponics in a small setting. These are all Gorilla Cake and Cherry Pie OG photos. Will move them to other tanks as they grow. Will likely add nutrients direct to the roots, and add some aquarium nutrients. A few are starting to sprout already. Hoping to avoid damping off by keeping the medium mostly out of the water. Need to double check PH and redo the water, but that is for another day. Other babies are still growing, and are getting a new space with 20/4 or so light.

The race is on! MVB still holding strong against Atlas and Heisen. The other 4 seedlings are now outside, so they'll have their own separate competition.

Wanted to explain my setup a bit. I use a 4x4 duck pond to hold my grow bags in my tower. It allows me to water all of my plants at once. I irrigate until I see a bit in the pool, and stop. They can also suck up around 1 inch of water and nutrients if I am feeding them. Either way, they're good to go for a few days. Nice to not have to water every day. 27 gal pots for each girl in the back. My poor auto is recovering from another incident, so thoughts and prayers for her.

I know I need to defoliate, but they just seem so happy. I don't want to ruin their day.

Second update on the beans. All seem ready to grow! Kinda worried about space, since I didn't exactly expect 8 out of 8 to germ. I suppose my thumb is just too green. Germination issue posts seem iffy from others, given these results so far. Maybe it is the seeds themselves, or maybe they do not know how to germ seeds properly.

Off to the races. All 8 have germinated, so not too bad so far! The Dark Matter beans have the quickest germination and longest taproots so far, followed by the Solar Flare Auto, and the Blue Dream Autos pulling up the rear. Getting ready to pop them in soil.

Here's the Flower Tower I built. No design ahead of time besides basic shape and materials, and a basic knowledge of construction. 8 pc fans are running, along with a regular house fan. 4 pc fans pull in air through a "dark box" I made, and air is oulled out by my exhaust inline fan. It ducts outside, so no smell, even with the door open. Draw latches, and rubber seal around the door, so it pulls a decent vacuum. Lockable. Quite happy with it, but it was a lot of late night work. Reflective insulation. I need to scrog properly, I know. Two are trained, one is not. The untrained one seems happiest overall. 480w light above. 240w spread around the sides. I will be adding around 200w more 4000k light underneath soon to hopefully avoid making hay down below. Defoliate? Maybe. From what I understand, buds pull goodies from leaves, so I like the idea of leaving them for a while. If I can get decent buds top to bottom with my extra lighting, that would be the dream. Getting ready to put the two bigger ladies in 27 gal bags so they can really stretch their legs. Starting MVB seeds, so I hope to have pics I can show soon.

Had a plant take forever to get started. Finally decided to just keep it as a house plant for a bit. Added some moss, and chia seeds. An oregano plant is hiding in back loving life. I thought it kinda looks like a little forest. Never tried this before, bit it's fun. I really need to give her a trim, but that will be in a few days, maybe. Trying to decide if I want to do a spiral, or something else.

New starts tonight. 2 of each. 2 Blue Dream autos, as well as Solar Flare and Dark Matter. Now their container is sitting on a warm mat at 74 degrees, and hiding under a black seedling tray. I'll check them tomorrow afternoon for radicles.
