First grow here, but I’ve done outdoor organic vegetable gardening for years. Hopefully, that experience pays off. Germinated in a paper towel then transplanted into Happy Frog soil. Light is set at 50% power. Soil was amended(2tbls/gallon of substrate w/ Dr Earth fertilizer-45%veg, 45% bloom, 10% AP, 1/2c worm castings) and cooked two weeks prior to transplant. Reading these grow diaries have been a lot of help, so I started my own in hopes that it might help others.
@PurpleWorship,
Thank you! I was probably a little too handsy with them at first as I’m sure most first timers are. I learned my lesson after I snapped the top. 😆
Hey man, amazing grow! I've just started my first ever grow with green crack, do you have any advice? Was LST and defoliation worth it? I read not to do LST on autos. Thanks!
@alexgrowsweed,
Thanks dude! They were super leafy, so defoliation was absolutely necessary. Trimming was a nightmare too. I think they need plenty of room to grow, so if space is an issue, LST is a must. Neither plant seemed to be negatively affected by either technique and I think it absolutely increased my yield.
