Time to do a grow journal update.
It's a pleasure to have a really good amount of strong sun at hand! I had a problem at the beginning when I started the seeds off, I didn't have any compost and went to get some from the neighbor.
You definitely need fluffy soil start seeds off in, and the stuff I got at the time, I didn't look at the packet and it a was worm shit clay additive - and so there was no way a seed with germinate without just luck because the soil was to compact and clayey.
After swapping them over to potting/compost soil it saved them apart from one automatic White Widow, just in the nick of time.
Soil Mix
Considering everything is closed including the grow shop, things are quite limited to the basics. I got two sacks of different soil equilling 120L and mixed some leftover soil from a while ago and had a tiny bit of coco that I recycled.
The only fertiliser I have at the moment is compost tea, made from the soil mix and also compost from a 2 year old compost heap, the grow shop is still very closed 😢
Compost tea will do the trick though although I want to get some nutes for flowering stages.
Just add a handful or two of compost soil to a bucket and add water, mixit twice a day and make a new one every 3 days.
I just recieved the other seeds that arrived on Tuesday but had the wrong name on the envelope so it got mixed up. I was sure that I had killed the first 3 WW autos and so I reordered, but anyway 2 from 3 survived.
Now I just got 5 auto Critical 2.0 and a free feminized Critical 2.0 (last time i got 3 free seeds after ordering 3 autos, so that must have been a mistake)
Sorry for the background of my hairy sun deprived thigh!
I started them off at once, using the tins from the seeds filled with water, and I will wait for the roots to show before I plant them
The first seeds I planted were 2 seeds I had in my rucksack all the way from north Denmark over 3500km away. "Hippy Pot" from the 70's.
Not sure what to expect! They grow it but not with so much love or caring for male plants with the fems, just for some pot to smoke. I think it might be like bush weed.
Im interested to see because I was told it starts to flower in late July to beat the cold and danish autumn. Its easy to see its genetics have not been bred 😂
I have put the autos in 10 liter pots that luckily were just sat in the garden/rat caravan. Normally I have 20l pots as standard, especially when in Spain because the sun grows monsters, but this time I have stared them in the pots they will stay in.
I do have though some big posts for these Below, but I dont have enough yet until I find containers to use. No rush though for these, they are not Autos and are only 14 days from sewing and will stay another 10 days getting bottom fed to get the roots filling up the pot.

This started to stretch alot so it got repotted to a bigger pot and the stem burried.
