Lemon Berry Candy OG AUTO

emeraldlabs Feeling the lemon lately. Early lemon berry in flower tent and this. After lessons learned from previous autos, ready to see this one take off. If things go as planned, I may run my next auto in 5g. Planning LIGHT LST. Will be swapping out tent bulb shortly (out with the old 4200k, in with the new 3100k). Photos taken 7 days after breaking soil.

emeraldlabs Potentially (but definitely) my biggest auto to date at week 2. Fingers crossed a sign of good things to come. Once my other autos finish, hopefully before this gal decides to start flower, I will be swapping out tent bulb (out with the old 4200k, in with the new 3100k). Photos taken 14 days after breaking soil.

emeraldlabs This girl has taken off! Growing tall and starting to shoot some pistils. Light LST on lower branches. Got the light swapped out during the past week! Excited to see how she continues to develop. Photos taken 21 days after breaking soil.

emeraldlabs Holy shit, STOP growing! Hopefully the stretch is over. We are in flower. A lot happening! Top a lil bent, dunno if there was light stress; raised light but no more room for error. We will see what happens... Photos taken 28 days after breaking soil.

emeraldlabs She put on a few more inches this week, but I think the stretch may be over. Ready to watch her put on some weight. Recently switched from using RO water with calmag to tap water. Photos taken 35 days after breaking soil.

emeraldlabs Happy to report the stretch is over. She is developing quickly, but has a long ways to go; I think this is a good sign. She is already starting to stink. Still just watering with tap water; run-off EC still plenty high. Photos taken 42 days after breaking soil.

emeraldlabs Developing nicely but showing some signs of hunger. Gave her a small dose of grow formula this week to try and slow down the yellowing. Hope we aren’t having a lock out issue… if things don’t improve, there may be a flush in the near future. Photos taken 49 days after breaking soil.

emeraldlabs Excuse the droopy leaves, late to feeding and pictures today. We are still fading, but runoff EC is fairly high; feeding once every 3 waterings, hoping to fix the lockout if that’s what’s happening. If she doesn’t appear any happier next time she’s watered, she will be flushed. She certainly is smelling better than she looks at the moment. Photos taken 56 days after breaking soil.

emeraldlabs She got flushed this week and fed at next watering. Seems main issue here is nitrogen; next watering she may get a little bit of grow nutes. The struggle is real on this gal, but overall she looks and smells good. Photos taken 63 days after breaking soil.

emeraldlabs She’s hanging on for dear life at this point! She may be chopped a bit early, taking it week by week at this point. Love the structure, smell, and looks of the nugs. Tempted to run again, with hopes of a better overall experience. Photos taken 70 days after breaking soil.

emeraldlabs Finally pulled the trigger on some recharge, and damn I’m glad I did! The recharge really seems to have stalled the issues. About 2 weeks until harvest! Photos taken 77 days after breaking soil. 9/18: 1/2 g of recharge in 1 G water. pHed to 6.5 then added the recharge. Did not check runoff 9/21: 1 tsp bloom and 1/2 tsp calmag in 1G water pH 6.3, EC 0.98 runoff: pH 6.0, EC 1.85

emeraldlabs 1 more week! Fairly shocked we made it here, but no complaints. Last feeding was today. She will get the chop next week, stay tuned! Photos taken 84 days after breaking soil. 9/24: Tap water pH 6.8, EC 0.28 Runoff: pH 6.4, EC 1.25 9/27: 1 tsp bloom and 1/2 tsp calmag in 1G water pH 6.2, EC 1.01 Runoff: pH 6.3, EC 1.44 9/30: 1/2 tsp bloom and 1/2 tsp calmag in 1G water pH 6.3, EC 0.88 Did not check runoff

emeraldlabs Chop day! Happy to have made it to the finish line. Will be back in 6-8 weeks with a review! Photos taken 90 days after breaking soil. 10/3: Tap water pH 6.8, EC 0.32 Did not check runoff

emeraldlabs Grow cycle as expected. Happy I didn’t stunt her, but she wasn’t happy the whole time. Will run again, hopefully with even better results.
