Girl Scout Cookies Extreme - Autoflower

2021

Just getting my autos started today so that I can ensure two crops of this strain through this growing season and remain compliant with the restrictions and limits in Vermont. This is my second grow ever... my first was last year. These autoflowers will be just one part of a multiple strain grow for this season which also include some Granddaddy Purple (photoperiod, feminized) and some CBD Blueberry (photoperiod, feminized). Germinating my seeds in a self-watering peat pellet dome. I plan to start the inside the house and move them to my grow tent once the germinate. I’ll keep them in the tent until weather permits me to move the. Outdoors (likely the last week of May/first week of June. Grow medium will be soil: likely a blend of FoxFarm Ocean Forest and Happy Frog. I’m amending some organic compost and mixing up my own soil, but it won’t be ready before these autos get potted... soil will definitely be ready if I get the opportunity for a second auto grow this season. No nutrients yet, but I’m a fan of the FoxFarm Liquid Plant Food system (three part) - which I’ll use later on.

Day: 7

Moved my girls to the grow tent for a few days to get more regular, consistent light... just starting to see warmer & longe days here in Vermont... still freezing at night. My tent is in my garage - which I don’t normally heat/condition - so I’m having to make some adjustments to maintain proper temp and humidity, but think I’m getting it dialed in pretty well. First time I’ve used my tent for growing... got it late last season and only used it for drying last year. Still in the peat pellets for a few more days... I may transplant into 5-gal pots by this weekend or so. The Jiffy Greenhouse I’m using for the peat pellets is self-watering, so I haven’t had to water yet and haven’t had to be concerned with pH, TDS, etc. One of the seedlings didn’t shed its’ shell when it germinated, so it looked a little funky until today. I was advised to be patient and let it do it’s thing naturally; as you can see from todays’ photos, she shed her shell without me having to assist. Likes 2
