Here we go with another diary. Where to start.
The seeds came nicely packaged and are laid on a soft bed when you open the pack, they include a set of printed instructions inside the box which is a nice touch for new growers, the other side of the paper tells you about the strain.
Very nice, impressed so far, it was when I tried to put the paper back in and the lid on that disaster struck, the seeds all pinged off all over the floor. I spent at least 20 minutes on my hands and knees trying to round them all up, even had to use a spoon to hook one out from under the washing machine.
So there’s my first criticism, although very nice the pack could do with being a bit more secure, maybe the seeds could be sandwiched between two bits of foam ?
Moving on, here is some information about the seeds from the Growers Choice Website-
“At to the request of our friends and customers we created a fast version with outstanding trades. To develop this strain, we selected one of the best biscotti genetic lines and combined it with our mandarine autoflowering strain. By backcrossing it with the biscotti mother we created a semi autoflowering strain that we call fast version. Naranja biscotti has big light green buds with bright orange hairs and a thick frosty coating of bright white crystal trichomes. This weed has a crazy delicious sugary cookie flavor with a hint of fresh mandarine. As you can expect from this strain it grows for a very short period before going into flower. Making it a good strain for people with height issues. If you dont have height issues than pre grow it a couple of days longer to get the right height. Outdoor it will be one of the fastest strains you have ver seen. Buds are rockhard and dont care about molds at all.”

I will be totally honest now I’m really not sure what I’m doing with these seeds, I’ve grown auto’s before but these are semi auto’s, what does that even mean? You don’t use the clutch when changing gear?
Presumably they will go into flower on there own just like an auto but then in the description it says “If you dont have height issues than pre grow it a couple of days longer to get the right height.” That suggests to me you need to change the light cycle? So confused at the moment.
Here’s a couple of pictures from the Growers Choice Website, I really hope mine comes out like that, looks lovely.


That’s the seeds covered now on to equipment.
These will be grown in coco in a run to waste system, due to them being auto I’m going to wait a little bit before germinating these, got an 8 week strain in the flowering room on week 1 12/12, when they get to week 4 I’ll get these seeds germed and straight into 16L pots, then when my cheese gets harvested these will be about a month old and go straight into the flowering room. I don’t want to keep them in the veg tent too long you see and stunt there growth, going to treat them as auto’s for now until I can figure out what I’m meant to do with them. Veg will happen under 150w ISH v bars before going under 2x ISH x bars for flowering.
They will be started off on Formulex for the first few weeks before moving over to the Vitalink range of nutes based loosely around this feeding schedule.
Well that’s about all for now, I’ll update again in a couple of weeks when I get these started.
Thanks for reading
