So I was gonna start a grow journal earlier in summer but I got sick and ended up in the hospital. I was gifted some seeds around my birthday in September and I decided to pop 3 auto flowers while I wait for the other 3 in the tent to finish up. I have made several of @Tangwena Cobs from the ones recently harvested. So I'm starting this journal and all 3 have just been put in their 7 gallon fabric pots!!

Let the Bean Genie Throwdown start right here!!! Whewwwwws!! (My Rick Flair impression) The first part is just several entries of my own notes. Please feel free to chime in. Point me in the right direction if you see it going bad!! Happy Monday.
Here's my official entry of my first grow journal here!!

Good morning friends and neighbors!!! Pull up a chair and fire one up and follow along.
The first days of my grow happened as follows:

10/29 So as it was my birthday recently and I was gifted some seeds. Thank you very much. I definitely ate a cupcake (Ok.... maybe 2) for you 🤣
annndddd....
I
Just
Popped the 2 Auto seeds Wookies x Wizard and just Wizard in the wet paper towels. I'm
assuming 48-72 hours will see blastoff. Would be cool to see them in cups around the first of November. Give the photos time to finish up and then transplant the autos into their final home.

11/1 Dropped both into soil in solo cups. Both seed shells came off.

11/2 Both girls above ground. Dome is over both. To be continued ladies and gentlemen. 😎✌️

11/3 That post was written around 11pm. It is now the next day 13 hours later on the 3rd and both those girls had to have support because they grew so tall!! That's why I always keep that bendy garden wire on hand. I had a tomato plant a couple years ago. That tomato plant got 12 feet long and bendy wire held that sucker along the fence. She was a beast. Can you say fresh homemade salsa like 5 days a week. Also grew some Ghost peppers and some Trinidad Scorpions. Loved growing them and they're beautiful but I'm too much of a pussy (you are what you eat kids!!) to eat it. Needless to say many friends got several jars of totally organic, smoking hot salsa. My friend Jimbo and his son slammed several jars full. I'll grow them. I'll make the salsa but I'm not eatin it. When I gotta wear gloves to prepare the salsa..... uh nope. Anywho as bein the fat kid in gym I'm outta here like a hit dodgeball player. 😎✌️

11/4 Both plants are under the blurple plant lights. Both are in front of the fan to get them stronger

11/5 I've decided to name Wizard Olivia aka Liv
and the Wookies x Wizard is gonna be Jenna.

11/10 Both plants doin just fine. Growing slowly.

11/11 Just popped a BTF seed in wet paper towel. Will probably see a sign of life in 48-72 hours. I'm trying to kind of stagger the harvest time!! I'm also very limited on places to dry. Weezy (My better half) is soooo patient with me so I'm glad she loves me. Onward and upward friends and neighbors!!
Rock and Roll!! I'm a KISS fan so I'm gonna name her Beth!! I used to breed snakes (Ball Python Morphs) And my first female that's what I named her as well. She was a rescue and severely neglected to the point of her growth being stunted. Ball Pythons only get 5ish feet. Very manageable. They never stop growing. Females are usually bigger than the boys. (Horny little pricks) But she never got past 4-1/2 feet. I never bred her. She just lived a very happy not hungry life for the next 12 years or so. Most of my snakes really loved swimming too!! Happy Monday folks!!

11/16 BTF just showed up and has been dropped into a solo cup. Hurry up and wait.

11/20 Weezys birthday and guess who decided to show up? BTF.... Aka Beth. I've never had one that waited that long to pop her head above soil. But..... great things come to those who wait. Wizard aka Liv and Wizard x Wookies aka Jenna are both looking good in their solo cups.

12/1 Watered all 3 plants

12/5-8 watered all 3 twice during this period.
Leaving for Holiday on the 11th....will up-pot to 7 gallon pots on 15th.

12/9 Wookies x Wizard got topped today.

12/14 Back from holiday. All 3 girls are looking good. Solo cups are slightly moist so that's good. Gotta harvest the three in the tent and will seriously get down to business and put these autos into 7 gallon pots. The soil has been cooking for a couple months so I filled the bags before I went on holiday in anticipation of starting this journal. Also premixed some light bleach water for a deep clean as I'm trying to just keep proper clean house for the girls!! Happy Saturday friends and neighbors!!

12/15 Well the deed is done. All 3 photo girls got the chop. Will let them hang a couple days and then cob the majority. Cleaned the tent out and then put all 3 girls in their final 7 gallon pots respectively. Pictures to come in the very near future. Happy growing folks!!

12/17 Checked all 3 girls with the moisture meter. they are almost dry. I'll give each girl a drink of water and add some super thrive. I use it in my garden outside as well.

12/22 All 3 girls got a gallon of water. Mainly around the edges of the fabric pots to hopefully make the roots chase the water and fill it out. Liv (wizard) is being strange. She's just 1 single branch but I'm seeing hairs so she's getting topped today. Out of the 3 the youngest Beth is actually the biggest one so far.

:whee:
Belated happy birthday. :biggrin:
So tiny and already budding.
Much success with your grow!
So very kind of you!! I'm excited about it. I've just harvested some other plants and have put them to per @Tangwena cob method/fermenting. They've only been curing a month for some small pieces. But I've tried all 3 and they're all good without being fermented so yayy!!! Now....puff puff and passing it to you buddy!! Happy Monday!! 😎✌️
