Hey guys,

I had a few beans left over from an old order from m-seeds.nl the strain is Auto Berry Feminized by Marijuana-seeds.nl. I've grown it out before using CFLs and had a healthy return, but fancy experimenting with this grow as a bit of fun to see what i can yield outdoors.

Details are as follows:
Strain: Auto Berry Feminized from M-Seeds.nl
Pot Size: 2.5l square pot
Soil Mix: Biobizz All-Mix
(broken down consists of: 20% sphagnum peat moss, 35% garden peat, 10% high quality organic Worm-Humus , 30% perlite and 5% Pre-Mix) Had excellent results from indoor grows.

Seeds have germinated and are sprouting as we speak, i'll have some photos to show progress. I'm planning on LSTing it, i've never tried with an auto variety before but as it's an experimental grow i'm keen to try a few different things out.

Thanks for swinging by!!

Haven't been at a comp in a while, latest update from the ladies and they're putting on a bit of size and sets 4-5 of the fan leaves are developing nicely. As on Monday next week i'll be giving them a small dose of fox farm Big Bloom (other brands are available). Should hopefully see a boost in growth.


I reckon i'm another 2 weeks away from being anywhere near ready to LST the badboy, if that's even a realistic option.


That's all for nowIMAG0991.jpgIMAG0992.jpg:joint:

Latest update from the patio grow. I'll likely be transplanting the ladies into a bigger pot this weekend so plan to start the LSTing at the same time.

A few pics below, i'm guessing it would be a good time to start looking at the 4-6 sets of side/fan leaves?

I decided against transplanting the ladies this weekend as they seem to doing amazingly well. I'm still planning to LST them thanks to some sound advice and resources given courtesy of some growing friends. I've also had some workmen in over the past few days, they've been doing work to the outside of the building which hasn't been great for the patio grow. It means i've had to hide the lady and she won't be getting too much light for a couple of days. I'll keep you posted and hopefully have some more photos to upload soon.

No photos at the moment but the little lady is starting to fill out. I'll be dosing her up with some flowering nutes as of tonight. They're rocking in on N-P-K of 4-9-9. I'll post some images over the weekend. Adios guys and girls.

Latest update, i've opted not to LST my young lady this time round, instead i'm going to let her keep on going as is. I's started her on some flowering nutes which seem to be working well. She's putting on some serious size at the moment and becoming pretty bushy. There are bud sites popping up all over the place and the main kola is starting to take shape nicely.


I'm around 35 days into the grow so would expect her to keep going for another 30 days or so.


Anyways, below are few shots i got off her over the weekend. :Cool:IMAG1092.jpgIMAG1094.jpgIMAG1097.jpgIMAG1098.jpg

Hey man, I've just stumbled across and subscribed to your grow. Good to see that it survived the visits from the workmen. Keep the updates coming.

Looking good. Interested to see what kind of yield you pull from the autos, the shorter timeframe is attractive...at this point, I've had my girl growing outside since March and have at least 2 months ahead of me.

Looking pretty nice man, it seems to me that it is stretching a bit which is weird for an outdoor grow that early on. I will be interested to see how it responds to those flowering nutes.

Yeah it's the short flowering period that did it for me, the website says 60-70 days from seed which i think must be indoors. This little lady still has at least 25-30 days left, probably more. Outdoors always tend to take a little longer.

Hey Wise, i think you're right but it's likely down to the light and dark hours which is currently around 16-8 which isn't ideal for an auto. I've also had to move the lovely lady a couple of times due to workmen out the back of my yard. Again not ideal. We'll just have to see how we get on, hoping still to pull a decent yield from it.

Hello folks, been away for a while and have to be honest my little lady has been taking a bit of a hammering over the past couple of days.


I've had to try over the lower branches as it was starting to develop what looked to be white mold or powdery mildew. It doesn't seem to have spread to the upper leaves or buds which is good, i just hope i caught it early enough.


Buds wise there are around 10-12 different buds sites that are starting to thicken up, i still think she needs another 2-3 weeks, depending on how well the weather holds out! I'll have a few more pics for you tomorrow.


Peace:smoke:

I haven't posted for a while so here's the latest update (complete with some pics, although they ain't too good).

The plant is around 65 days old give or take a day or two. Judging by it i think i'll let her run for at least another week to 10 days to help her bulk out more. I'm still feeding her flowering nutes every second day and have started bringing her inside on an evening as the temp has dropped significantly at night time. She's stretched a fair bit as i've kind of let her do her own thing.

Lets see what the next couple of weeks bring.

Hey Krake, looking good. Based on when you started this thread your plant is more like 52 days old. We started our outdoor auto flowers at about the same time. Mine broke the surface on July 20 and i plan to let go another month at least. It's an auto feminized white widow from Pyramid.

Good luck, can't wait to see your results!!

Not the best update to post. I have a slight problem, i'm thinking i may have harvest her early as the weather is forecast for rain for the next week and i can't move her indoors. She smells too much and my neighbors are a nosey to say the least. She's probably got another 10 days left, i suppose the question is, if i harvest early what will the buds turn out like. Generally they'll be weaker and the smoke harsher but will a decent cure perk the buds up? Pretty devastated to be honest!

Needs alot more time, atleast two weeks if not three. If you chop now you will be dissapointed nithe yield and potency, cover it with a tarp if the weather is really bad but keep in mind that this will increase the chance of mold. GL.
