Thanks guys! Im excited about this run. It got me amped on auto flowers too. Ive seen a few friends grow them with pretty good results. But this stuff is super smelly and probably going to be tasty and potent. Cant wait to run some butane through all the trim and some nugs.
In about 3-4 days ill be puttin her in the dark for 2-3 days.
Shes gettin a little purple too! Its really hard to see in the yellow but once i go to harvest her ill take some pictures in the good light.
Stay tuned. Its gonna be a fun week.

Yielded 34gs so far probably lose a g while curing just from sittin around.
I really wanna get a boveda pack for curing the big top nug that weighed about 8gs.
Gonna run all the trim and 7 or so gs of the buds through my new bho tube. Got a hand pump to purge and a mason jar rig that can get to around 25hg at least. Ive gone all the way to 29 and higher but im more than positive the guage is off. But none the less i can expand a marshmallow in one go and draw all the air out of it so ive got to at least be hitting 25 because thats when you see the most expansion in things. At least that ive noticed.
That and a new pyrex that im going to make a lid for so once i get a little more trim to run consistently i can use that as my vac chamber and upgrade to a 1.5 cfm pump.
Ill throw some pictures of the nugs up in a day or 2. Really got some nice pink/red/purple to them and foxtailed towards the end. I thought i was gonna have to give it 80+ days but day 70 came around and it started lookin done and when day 75 hit they were prime so i picked it. Id say pullable from day 70-80.
Id run it again if i had any mroe seeds. I have a fem cheese thats not autoflowering that im gonna throw at my other spot.
Smoked a blunt of it today and it tastes exactly how it smells when you rub your fingers on a growing nug. Still a bit of sugars/chlorophyll left in it but it doesnt burn hot or annoying for only being about 5 days dried and 3 cured.
Id recommend this to anyone wanting to grow autos. Ive grown only a few in my day and this one was the biggest yielder so far and the tastiest.
Smoke report in a few days.

This is her after the 3 days in the dark. Every fan leaf tends to turn pretty yellow when they get the 3 days of dark.
Got some really nice red/pink/purple hues in her and i had constant 75 degree temps. So i could only imagine how red/purple this thing would be grown outdoors or in a cooler place.
Some more nice coloring.
Everything she is. 34.somethin grams and a good amount of trim that i turned into a nice glob of wax. I was able to purge it to a pretty stable state. A cloudy ish shatter because i didnt dewax or use a coffee filter to blast. Mainly just the 55 micron screen it came with. I dont really care about isolating just the good shit because i like my flavors and dont dab often or enough for the extra waxes and fats to fuck with my lungs.
Thats just about it for this journal. Ill throw some shots of the last nug i got up in a day or 2 when i snap some more pictures.
Smoke report in a few days as well with the nug shots.
Highly recommended for a solid auto. Good yield for a 1-2 gallon pot. Pretty potent and stinky/flavorful.
If i cam across 10 or 20 seeds of it for cheap/gifted id run em all under my 600w of led. Id get a good haul.

34 grams dried and mostly cured! About 3 or 4 days drying and 4-5 curing when i first weighed it. Probably had a few points of extra water in the stems of the bigger nugs but even still i was hopin for a zip to a zip and a half and i got about a zip and a quarter.
I wish this site could handle the big ass picture files im tryin to upload. Once i take a screen shot of them to lessen their size they lose alot of quality and sharpness.
Thanks for the rep! Hopefully have some more strains poppin in the mini cab soon.

This is old school, but I still use Paint which will open images in full resolution. Then I just crop that portion of the pic to fit the screen. Obviously it doesn't work for EVERY picture, but once it's standard practice, its pretty easy to accomplish:

good ol paint. Never fails. Ive gone to imgr but when i post them to the forums they look just as shitty as the screen shot ones.
Ill figure it out one day. Or just have to wait a long ass time for the high rez ones to upload but then ill slow down the overall loading to my page. UGH
Either way the cheese is just about all gone.
Smoke report: Super stinky, the second you open the bag its pure funk and hard to describe. Def cheesy but something else too almost berry like a toned down or reversed blue cheese where the cheese is dom and the blue is the background.
Once you break a nug open you get really blasted with the berry smell but its nothing super distinct or powerful since the cheese kinda leads.
Sticky fingers even though its properly dried and cured. Nice dense nugs. Top was a little foxtaily but once trimmed down was solid under the fox tails.
Once rolled up and lit it tastes amazing over any shell. I usually use original swisher sweets which is no flavoring but it tastes just as good out of any of them. Down to the last few hits of the roach you can taste the cheesy funkiness you broke down.
The high isnt the strongest probably due to the ruderalis but its also uplifting and heady so i think its a combo of slightly less potent than non autos with a different high than im used to in the strains i grow. I stopped telling people it was auto cheese because its on par with medium high shit that comes around here. And most of the time the word auto would just lead to more questions because few of the people i talk to grow or know the ins and outs ofgrowing.
34 grams total off my 150w hps. Really wish i had 2 in there and could have easily gottin over 2 zips. It produced some nice bho as well. Really sweet smelling and tasted exactly like it smelled when id rub my fingers on a sugary fan leaf. Makes my eyes water just thinkin about it haha.
Overall a really nice plant. I would grow it again in a heart beat if i had 20 or so and the love for autos. Dinafem new what they were doin. Ive got a fem cheese thats not auto germinating as we speak so ill start a mini side grow for that. It wont be in my mini cab though so look for me in the normal indoor growing area through the links in my sig.
Til next time everyone keep smokin and keep growin. Hope this helps someone choose an auto strain or give someone confidence in a seed company. Good for beginners to experienced. Used just dyna gro and snow storm ultra.
