Learning to Fly by Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers. Final jarring of the last two plants, net for grow was 243.4gm, far less than my goal even though I ended up with 3 plants instead of 4. I’m still struggling with aroma and flavor. I had intense aroma from the blueberry about 3-4 wks prior to harvest. I waited to harvest once I had about 10% amber trichomes, at harvest the aroma was completely gone. For the AutoPot system I had put about 3 gallons of compost tea in the tank and subsequently used molasses as well in the tank maybe 3 times. Even though I used their Easy2Flow I still ended up with some sort of build up that completely plugged the system about halfway through the flower cycle… that was a pain to clean during the grow. I’ve tried a little from both of the Pink Lemonade plants and am happy with the high, I’ve yet to try the blueberry… maybe tonight. Getting things cleaned up and ready for the next grow.

Playing in the grow room: Wild Mountain Honey by Steve Miller Band, Long Tall Sally by Little Richard. I messed up. I have two seeds that popped above soil, one is looking good as shown in today’s pictures, the other is struggling and wilted pretty severely. I think this is from my custom soil blend being too rich for young starts. The other two show no signs. So, I made a hole about a gallon in size and filled with the commercial potting soil I’ve been using as a small buffer for the new seeds to start in. I’m planting 2 Purple Lemonades since they have about a 2 week shorter flower period than the blueberry. The other I’m keeping is the berry bomb but I’m not expecting it to do anything.
