She has a major lean on from over watering and is supported enough for now. The single finger leaves are developed and she is working on the next set of 3 fingered leaves.
Conditions have been good for the week.
Back soon.
Take it easy.

Day 73 since seed touched soil.
How amazing she smells, wrote even to MSNL acc, both strains will be GOD's FOOD , i can guarantee it now. Waved/shook few tops to understand how heavy they are and later hands were full of lemony stink, hard to describe, but really tropical gassy ;)))
This grow is strange, Cookie now lacks feeding a lot, pales quickly , i see sighns of finishing already, but by bud look and structure - my guess is that she still has 3 weeks to go.
Mars Hydro TSL2000 is giving her all power she needs, hopefully those colas will fatten up !
Happy Growing !!!

Week 3 for the Apricot from our favorite autoflower company, of course fastbuds 420!
All looks quite good at the moment.
This week we gave bloom, root, silica, calmag amino, sugar shot, sticky fingers and bloom booster all from xpert nutrients!

April 21 - 28
This week was a fun week of auto pilot watching the buds fill in and the plants stretch.
Drizella has been the beast of the grow and stretched the most. But the 2nd row of netting helped keep things under control.
Carol Anne is far below that second net tier. She is for sure dealing with life as a short stunted plant. Hoping for the best outcome for her, but I鈥檓 sure she ain鈥檛 gonna look so pretty when it comes time to chop n hang her to dry.
Anastasia is beautiful and I think also dealing with stunted growth a little. Either that or her phenom is wildly different than her sister Drizella. She is just reaching the second net tier and is very bushy with more compact bud zones and colas.

This week I was wondering why the tops looked funny but it looks burned so I chopped the top cola off the afgan kush. It was too crispy and all the holes from the dead pistils made me think it Hermed and those were all seeds. Found some little white maybe beginning of seeds but not sure because it wasn鈥檛 many. I tried snipping a sugar leaf a few weeks back and accidentally snipped the bud a little so I might have caused that bud to stress. I鈥檓 almost done so I鈥檓 just hoping the others in the tent don鈥檛 get affected if it pollinated itself at all. I might chop the top of the zkittlez off too and let the bottoms finish off for a week or two longer when I drop the lights down some. For no I just tied the big cola to the side. I need to get a par reader and get on my Ppm meter too because so far I鈥檝e grown 3 plants without those and just guessing based on the packaging lol. I feel like it鈥檚 been relatively smooth for the circumstances tho and happy that I could at least smoke all of them so far.

This was a hell of a journey and I leanred so much along the way. Really impressed with the outcome and how forgiving this strain was for a novice grower. The spark that started me on this journey has sure as shit turned into a flame.

Transplanted into medium size pots :) they seem to have taken transplant just fine. The smell is also really nice given their small size.

Not much going on yet. Added some 3d printed supports to make sure they don't start flopping over. Not sure if it's the strain, or my idiocy, but these bastards are soooo leggy. Grr. Watering daily to 15% runoff with MegaCrop 2 part in RO at 0.6EC and 5.6pH. Found Mega Crop gives very stable pH on the right range without any pH up or down needed. Took one day off (3/18) watering to water with Silica Boost at 6ml/gal concentration pHed to 5.4. PPFD 300 at canopy for DLI of 20. PPFD was about 20 for first week while I was prepping and sanitizing the grow room, which might explain the leggyness. If they don't look better after topping, I might pull them and try a different strain.
3/20 - this grow is inspired by the techniques of Bruce Bugbee (PPFD, nutrition, EC monitoring, substrate, environment, etc) and the concept of VPD control, both of which served me very well in the past. The grow room has dual PID controls in my PLC regulating the temperature and humidity to lock in the VPD based on plant age. In later veg and flower, I had CO2 injection on a PID, but that ultimately failed because I couldn't get the humidity down as it got huge. Had too many vent cycles. This year, hope to source or kludge an in-line dehumidifier so I can keep the sealed chamber where it needs to be without wasting CO2.
3/22 no more vertical growth, thank god, leaves and roots are slowly catching up. Patience. EC to 0.7

29.11.2021 : I gave her fertile water. I applied neemazal to the leaves. organisms were eating leaves, so I took precautions. In one of my plants, the development is slow and the other two do not seem to have a problem.
02.12.2021 : everything is going well, I increased the watering to 2 liters.

Week 3 flowering (a week is 5 days)
Both plants begin to seriously flower with some early trichomes on leaves and buds. It seems that Gori is quite in a more advanced status compared to Rilla. I also changed the nutrients compositions following the 3rd week Advanced Nutrients for coco professional program (I calculated EC of every single nutrient and made a custom dosage program for every week according to a more realistic EC value - check nutrients in my diary).
Plants are doing well, leaves are beautifully green without signs of nutrients burns, excess or deficiencies. They are watered every day in the morning with fertilized water. Every day I also correct the training of the branches, removing unwanted popcorn/bottom growth and removing leaves that covers buds and leaves that don鈥檛 perform well (i.e.: leaves at the bottom that will not take light).
