Jonboy's '09 Automatic Blue Himalya and Automatic Little Angel Outdoor Grow

Hey folks...I'm back again, this time with two more cool strains I'm attempting to grow. I purchased 5 feminized Automatic Little Angel seeds from Ministry of Cannabis Seeds http://www.ministryofcannabis.com/autoflowering-feminized/little-angel-feminized.html
and 10 feminized Automatic Blue Himalaya from dope-seeds
http://www.dope-seeds.com/auto_dope_seeds.htm
I planted the 5 little angels yesterday, so I'll post pics once the seeds pop.
I'm also currently growing a Nirvana Seed Shop Feminized Swiss Cheese, so you'll see that grow as well. She's about 8 weeks old today and she showed female preflowers yesterday. Dense as fuck and branch formation is ideal. I'll post pictures regularly, so keep popping in!
Good Luck everyone!

nice, 8n weeks and female! i cant wait to see a pic of that! im so interested in the autos tho, i see regular plants all the time, but these autos are rare!! its sad you dont have any males to reseed urself, i have 2 males which im excited about. if u need any info, ask cuz i have had every problem so far... EVERY lol except law (cross the fingers). and i keep having problems.. so glad to see u have a blog 4 this, i will check it out... and thanks for answering my questions, u helped a ton. CYA

Hey Axis...thanks for stoppin' on by. Good to have good folks like you on board. Keep stopping in frequently. I'll let everyone know when the Blue Himalaya seeds arrive. They should be in my hands by Thursday or latest Friday. I expect by that time, my Little Angels should be popping out and thriving, I'll be sure to pic post when life begins. Sit in for this ride...it should be a fun one for those Auto growers out there!
Good luck everyone! Oh, here's my Cheese...I know the focus sucks on pic 3, but you can make out the hairs...

looks like you are having all this rain as well, by the soil... good and bad, you know?? as long as the drainage is good...

i remember when i pulled my 3 males(5 males, 2 i kept for seeding) out after all that rain 2 weeks ago, the root system was TINY!! no roots due to not needed, and i think that the root structure is homologous with the yield... more roots more yield, not necessarily the size of the pot, amount of roots...

Yeah man...I was fortunate to have some really ideal MJ growing weather for the past week up untill yesterday. It came down in buckets. Severe storms late last night. I was quite nervous. I have to go and check on them today. Other than that, I've had to water my plant every day besides last night because the ground dried out too quickly. My girl drinks about 2 gallons of water per day. I've been nuting her well too. I put down some more Ortho Bug Getta again before the rains yesterday. I'll have to check and see the death toll in a little bit. Hope everything's going well! Good Luck Everyone!

Just went and checked on my Cheese and 5 auto little angels. I noticed that one of the little angels is starting to pop. I will post pics when I get home from work!

So I returned from work this evening and saw the start of my Automatic Little Angel. She started to pop earlier this morning on my way out, so I snapped a shot of the white seedling popping.
I also lifted my Swiss Cheese's skirt by removing a few lower limbs. She's starting to get a hell of a trunk on her. Now she has a perfect "Christmas-Tree-Like" structure. I eagerly await to see her buds start forming. My buddy wants a clipping from her so he can clone her. Ideally he'd clip the top, right? Then I'd end up with 2 colas and he'd end up with a nice clone, right? I'd hate to clip the top of my girl...I think I'm in love

i clipped the top off of some of my non auto plants, and they recovered so fast it was odd... they grow side shoots, an then the 2 top ones become the top colas, but one got too heavy and snapped, split right in the center... next time im gonna leave some more stem above the top 2 nodes

3 more Little Angels popped in the past 2 days. That makes 4 sprouts total. They're on their way to a hopeful great sucess. Oh, and my 10 auto blue himalayas came in the mail today! However, I'm going to grow those indoors in my new Aerogarden.

aerogrow sounds nice, i want pics!!!

You asked for it....you got it....this is my first attempt at an indoor grow, besides using an aerogrow. I cloned three cuttings from my Swiss Cheese mother growing outdoors. Pic 1 is the aerogrow with 3 clones and pic 2 is the mother.
Comments/critisizms welcomed and appreciated.

4 out of 5 Little Angels have sprouted. They're about 4 days old now.

Here is an update...baby Little Angels are doing very nicely. Only 4 out of 5 germ'd though. Oh well, at least I know they're all girls. As I said earlier, I took 3 clones from my Swiss Cheese growing outside and put them in the aerogarden. I read 2 really long threads pertaining to the aerogarden and have learned a lot of useful information from the guys and girls over there in the FAQ sticky under Aerogardening. Stayed awake till about 2am this morning and then started another thread at 8am this morning.
My friend came over yesterday and I gave him 3 more clones from my Cheese. I can't wait to see how we both do with the cloning. I'm dying to try the cheese smoke.
Anyways, a lot of stoned ramblin' on by me. I also posted 2 pics of my entire garden for your enjoying pleasure...befores and current. A Northern Lights plant finally decided to start growing. I planted the NL back in May...big time runt! Also is a pic of a clone site from 4 days ago. Hope she branches out! Comments, critisisms and advice always welcomed!

Hey Bootz, glad you stopped by! +rep BTW...I'm glad someone's reading my journal! LoL...anyways, my Swiss Cheese was sprouted around June 8th +/-
She showed sex about 2 weeks ago. I've taken 6 clones of her so far...3 for me and 3 for my good friend.
I'm glad you have some knowledge then about the Swiss...How's the bud? Taste/smell? How much did you yield?
Keep in touch!

yeah i have some knowledge it was easier to grow inside then outside...i had alot of pests around it and had some rabbit problems.. but the bud was good it was 17 thc and the smell was like a skunk and a citrus smell...i grew two plants one inside which yeilded almost 300 grams and the outside yeilded little over 450 but grew 5 foot lol..just be really patient with it and im sure you will love the outcome

thanks Bootz...I appreciate your help. I can't wait for my Cheese to be done!

cant wait to see more pictures of your cheese!! and your welcome man

So it rained here last night and looks to me that the heavy rains destroyed at least 2 of my Angel sprouts. Oh well, these are the variables we have to account for when growing outside. Update on the clones...not doing to well...it was just an experiment anyways. I think I'm gonna drop some seeds in the AG either today or tomorrow. I bought more lighting, timer, and a bubble stone to upgrade my AG.

So I repotted 1 of my Little Angels into a larger pot...1 1/2 or 2 gallon I think. But I was amazed how quickly the sprouts bounced back from the beating they took last night! Not one of them looks harmed in any way shape or form!
My Swiss Cheese lady is really taking off! You can hardly see the clone sites that I took less than a week ago! I posted my little garden of weeden so you can see the lushness! I also snapped a pic of the NL runt that I just topped...consider this an experiment. The clones seem to be displaying some sign that rooting may be ocurring? Little side growths...hmmm
