Michael Luchóg Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 Hi folks . Big thanks @DinafemMark for these beans . Hope I do them justice . I was supposed to take part in the competition but to be honest I'm not that competitive ,and there was a mix up with another delivery and mine so I've lost before I start ! Any'hoo no pressure here so all is cool .I'll update and hope they grow alright . Twenty days ago I stuck two cheese xxl auto into one 45 litre pot ,3/4 full with a mix of peat from a bog ,sand, and some old rotted debris,leaf mould . They're in the corner of this picture .I'm cramming plants into the tent so ignore the other smaller seedlings in the small pots ,sitting in the big pot . These are under a 942 cmh 315w . The other three beans are only popped about two days ,and they're just getting sunlight so far . I'm trying to free up space and move a few plants out of the tent for 12/12. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dinafem-Mark Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 You'll do them justice mate I'm confident in that Its not very often we see more than 1 plant per pot so this is going to be interesting. With 45l of medium I can't see any issue and I'll be watching this auto show with interest Thank you for getting another Dinafem grow up and running on UK420 Until next time. Good luck with the grow All the best Mark.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pollenlover Posted May 12, 2018 Share Posted May 12, 2018 I've grown these outdoor in Spain a few times now and most of them have ended up as real beasts. Lovely plants and hardy as. They look nice. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dinafem-Mark Posted May 14, 2018 Share Posted May 14, 2018 Oh yes they are flowering now and stretch mode is in full swing Stretch should start to slow soon brother then we will see those buds explode Thanks for the diary update mate. I'll drop back in on the next All the best Mark.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Luchóg Posted May 21, 2018 Author Share Posted May 21, 2018 (edited) @pollenlover I'm jealous man .I'd love to have a spot ,or plot in Spain . @Dinafem-Mark Are they exploding yet ? Thanks Mark .Sorry to hear about your hound .I've had a few dogs ,one very clever pointer ,when she died I didn't want another dog . I took the plants outside and gave them a misting of rainwater and Neem oil with rosemary. They got the sh1t kicked out of them with the wind for minute !

pollenlover Posted May 23, 2018 Share Posted May 23, 2018 @Michael Luchog Looking good. They should be fine out there. I finished a late crop of them outdoors in Barcelona last year in December. Nice little late season bonus. Back in the UK now. Some new challenges switching back to indoors. Will try a couple of these outdoors this year and see how they do. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This loss has hit us very hard to tell the truth harder than losing some friends and family. Now onto the plants looks to have stretched a lot and now the bud development is looking good. The bit of wind will not cause any harm rather strengthen them stems which will help to hold those beautiful flowers Looking good so far my friend! Thank you as always for the update I'll drop back in on the next All the best Mark.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Luchóg Posted June 1, 2018 Author Share Posted June 1, 2018 (edited) Thanks Pollenlover and Mark . Actually I'm considering leaving the three younger plants outdoors to finish .Might be risky but I haven't decided yet .I want to use an attic with tight headroom .I've been vegging a few photoperiod plants low and prostrate and the attic gets too hot ,only suitable for 12/12 in summer .In winter though it would be ideal for autos .This cheese one is on the to do list again but something with a tighter nature might be best ,because two of the cheese xxl auto have passed the bulb out ! The two more mature plants have a lot of amber pistils . It don't mind if it ripens fast but I'd like if the tallest one bulked up just a tad more .Also wondering if perhaps the cmh bulb contributes to earlier finishing times with autos . It is only day 56 ,maybe day 58. Edited June 1, 2018 by Michael Luchóg 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dinafem-Mark Posted June 5, 2018 Share Posted June 5, 2018 (edited) The cheese xxl have definitely stretched mate a lot more than I expected to tell you the truth. Your tackling the height well and buds on the 2 mature plants looks to be forming well with the others budding up very well indeed Will be interesting to see how this strain compares indoor v outdoor so that would make a nice addition and give some variety In the growth of the plants + flowering times may differ (longer outdoors +10-25%) Looking good to me mate and as always thank you for the diary update I'll be back in on the next All the best Mark..

Michael Luchóg Posted June 8, 2018 Author Share Posted June 8, 2018 Well Mark ,hope all is good your way .They've all sort of grown like sativa's ,the others caught up with the first two in height . I put them all outside today .The weather's been fantastic ,very dry ,with ground cracking where soil is shallow . This evening it started raining and the sky is cloudy with hardly a breeze ,a dead heat ,muggy and humid and not at all conducive for flowering cannabis .Sods law . I think tomorrow I might chop the two mature-ish autos down ,because it's risky even without rain .I know they're not finished but they're not far off .The buds are pretty hard on the taller plant .There's definitely a variation between the two .The taller plant has more appealing flowers ,larger calyxes ,stacked and pine comb like .They're small but tight . The picture is deceptive ,it looks like the buds are a little larger in picture to be fair . Take it easy 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
