Blueberry ILGM Autoflower

Fallstand Day 1: We’re off and growing. BBA1 (left) popped up today. BBA2 (right) popped up yesterday. Keeping them moist for now with a sprayer. Also keeping the domes on still for the time being. Day 4: BBA1 and BBA2 are in the hands of technology for 4 days. I'm off to the shore and everything feels dialed in. AC and Heater to bracket and hot days and cold nights. Humidifier and Dehumidifier to take of those swings. And finally a water pump I order on amazon. The pump should...should.. pump 20mm of water to each plant 3 times day. I'm keeping the domes on still just to be safe. When I get back we'll be into week 2 and hopefully they've survived

Fallstand Back from vacation and the watering system worked perfectly. Day 8: They’re looking good so I’ve taken the domes off. Seems I have a springtail problems. I sprayed the surrounding soil with some natural pesticide.

Fallstand Minor inconvenience to the grow… BBA’s are on Day 15. They spent the latter part of week 2 outside because our house was hit by a tornado and he had no power. Luckily it’s restored now and they can continue. Temps at night dropped into the 50s but they seem unaffected.

Fallstand Introducing LST with these sweet little things I found on Etsy. The plants seem to have been unaffected from being outside for several days.

Fallstand Ditched the plastic LST clips - Not a fan. Back to the classic method of wire + clipping to the side of the pot. Much better control of the top of the plant to allow the sides to grow out. I noticed a a little browning on the bottom leaves and a few edges at the beginning of the week. I will have to start feeding, but going to wait one more week. Decided to start feeding as Nitrogen deficiency was clearly setting in. 1/4 nutes to start.

Fallstand We are flowering and we are OFFICIALLY on the struggle bus 😅 Last feeding didn't do a thing. I'm upping to about 1/2 nutrients (2/3 on grow big) to see if it has an effect. BBA1 & 2 are screaming for nitrogen but I'm still afraid to overfeed. We'll see what happens...

Fallstand We have a lot going on at home so I missed a week here. But the plants seem to have responded better to upping the nutrient amount to 2/3. Color is coming back and smell is increasing. I plucked the dead leaves and now they look a little stalky - but they're alive. BBA2 shot up to 16"! I used an LST clip just to get it down to match heights with BBA1. I was very reluctant to feed until week 5 or at flower. Others with similar grows seem to have gotten away with this. Perhaps next time I'll feed more heavily week 4.
