I'm restarting this grow diary as I don't see the former one in my history.
No worries, it was still in the seed failing stages, so I'll start with living plants!

In in shed in the Foothills:
Platinum GSC auto, I hope it has a few more weeks before it stretches, or this is going to be a small harvest.

On deck in the Bay Area, to move to the foothills this Sunday:
Tangerine Dream Auto (smaller plant that is in a 1 gal pot)
Crystalberry fem (larger plant in a slightly larger pot) She's getting a little leggy, so I need more light here quick!

The autos will be housed in the lungroom and the Crystalberry will go in the tent to allow for different light schedules if I need to.

Fingers crossed, germination sometimes is a snap, sometimes it's pure fucking magic. This time it was the latter!

i'm sorry man, that may have been my fault. we were getting errors from a search server and i rebuilt the add on for it and i think it cleared the cache out when i did that and however it was that you saw your stuff is now cleared.. there is a chance it can all come back yet. someone smarter than me will help fix it!!

here's a ink to your old one if ya want to continue it.. https://budbuilders.org/threads/planning-out-the-2025-outdoor-grow.1212/page-4

.

if you wouldn't mind would you please explain to me how you normally saw your history before? maybe i can do something if i know where to look...
 
No worries, nothing lost of importance.

It showed more than 3 pages of past posts.
There was one called something similar to this one ( I don’t recall the name for sure, but it was related to 2025 fall/winter.

Now the only posts I see are 2025 outdoor and some posts to CG’s big thread.
 
From what I can find it is just ability to search that is malfunctioning.
History says I have never created one thread but when I look, I can find all of mine [ and yours].
Just can't find them easy like searching.
Something here is not working like it should, but the threads are not gone as best as I can tell.
 
This is the fall lineup:
Batting lead off is Platinum GSC auto.
It’s at about the correct size to begin its stretch soon.

Seated just to the right is Tangerine Dream auto. It’s about two weeks behind Platinum so probably won’t begin the stretch until October.

In the tent is my only photo period plant, Crystalberry. I’m waiting to get a little weight on her before she gets flipped. IMG_1607.jpegIMG_1606.jpegIMG_1601.jpegIMG_1599.jpeg
 
All plants growing in pre charged soil, mostly ffof and happy frog mixed with perlite and pumice.

Platinum GSC began showing mag deficiency. I initially thought I’d splashed it but then the pattern looked too familiar.

The autos got a little epsom salts in their water this morning.

No other nutrients needed for a couple more weeks.

Platinum GSC is the largest one.
Tangerine dream auto is a couple weeks behind, right next to it.

Crystalberry is getting larger sitting alone in the tent.
I added a halo emitter for watering. IMG_1795.jpegIMG_1793.jpegIMG_1794.jpegIMG_1796.jpegIMG_1797.jpegIMG_1798.jpeg
 
All plants in the shed, including the tent area plumbed for automated irrigation through halos.

I noticed that tangerine dream is showing hairs. It’s the younger of the two auto flowers but the first to show stigmas.

I expect a stretch to begin soon, which now has me worried that the platinum GSC isn’t an actual auto like what happened last year 🤔

If it’s a photo, it’s going to get a little bigger in veg than I planned since I’ll be gone for 10 days. I expected it to begin its stretch by about now but I see no sign just really good veg growth. IMG_2143.jpegIMG_2144.jpegIMG_2145.jpegIMG_2147.jpegIMG_2148.jpeg
 
I was told this morning that all the plants in the shed and tent are getting huge.
I was told that it’s going to be difficult getting into the shed!! Hmmm.

One of my plants which was expected to be an auto (Platinum GSC), a seed from this lot last year was an auto, this year, it’s not “auto ing”. WTF pacific seed bank does it again. I can’t complain too much, when they do grow, it’s awesome weed, but this is frustrating.

I’ll be heading east this morning, I’ll get picture and hopefully come up with a plan that won’t mess up my winter harvest too much!

Outdoor plants keep growing. I’m going to have to break some more colas, or at least bend the hell out of them!
Great problem to have, but it still hurts to hear that CRACK!
 
Sounds exciting. I know I'm curious to see what you find when you get back to your plants.

I know about that horrible crack sound. Going through some learning pains here. I may have broken more branches trying to cover and protect the plants than I would have had I left them alone, lol.

Sorry I'm late....I've been looking at fish,boats, and trees and stuff.......

I'll pull up.
 
Ok

Back in the foothills, plants look good but could have used a bit more water over the past week.

Platinum gsc is big but apparently NOT an auto. Ill need to move it to flip it along with crystal berry.

Crystal and tangerine dream both needed more water last week and stunted them a little. I’ll see what they do with increasing moisture at the roots.

Yesterday I played chess with the shed and moved every piece at least once!

The auto is now solo outside of the tent, it self flipped about 10 days ago and is forming budsites but got a little stunted by a dry early stretch. It’s not going to be a big plant but it otherwise looks like the it will have a very sativa form.

Crystal berry was alone in the tent, has now been joined by Platinum GSC and the tent light cycle flipped as of lights on cycle currently in process (tent shuts off at 10am, on 10pm). The plants are moderate sized and pretty good color so I’m happy with the next group.

Laura and I are taking off for a couple week, so I hope I have all the irrigation and top dressing set correctly.
