Welcome to week 7! Saw some good growth this week, I adjusted light power up a bit, and adjusted a few branches/tucked leaves. I will say that these are going to be the shortest autos i've ever grown....the stretch is almost over and im at 13.4 inches, however node spacing and bud formation is fairly tight, good leaf to bud ratio. The way the buds are developing looks like it may be some dense stuff, but time will tell. All I did with training this week was mainly leaf tucking, and I pulled the main top down some more. She's reasonably level for the time being, and both plants are pretty much the same height. Well until next week, keep on keepin on. Peace
Looking good mate, I think you may have an issue similar to mine, looks like a little too much N causing the cal mag to lock out careful with the calmag as it can contain N.
Sorry for the unsolicited advice, I hope its helpful. Good luck with the rest of your grow ๐๐
@InspireMe,That may be a possibility, I'm using a bloom nutrients for the entire grow, which is low in N, however they started showing pistils at 2 weeks so its possible the N requirement of the plants was quite low after flowering began and maybe a little too much N built up in the medium due to not enough run off during watering. Increasing calcium did make a difference, runoff ph was good. All in all I'm thinking its due to the lower nutrient requirement and early flowering characteristics of this particular strain. I did have a similar thing occur with another early flowering auto strain. It will be interesting to see if the increased runoff makes a difference on the next grow. Thanks for sharing your experience and happy growing.
@Growurownseed, Thanks! I use maxi gro during veg, half gro and half bloom for the first 3 weeks of flower, and then all bloom for the rest of flower. In 2.5 years I've only had to buy 3 small bags of bloom, lasts a long time, fairly cheap, and gets results. Add a good cal-mag like ROOTS and thats really all you need, screw spending hundreds of dollars on nutes, when you really don't need to. Happy growing bro.
