Germination
4 years ago
Rapid Rooter direct in DWC bucket with clay pellets. This will be an experimental run. I'm going to push the Platinum OG autoflower extra hard with more nutrients then I should give it. Test: Overdose of Armor Si in the seedling to flower stage. Starting ppm 500, almost all Armor Si with a dash of grow.

And she's off!!! Let the experiment begin!!! So Armor Si is basically a plant steroid. It will increase the cellular structure of your plants causing them to grow bigger, thicker, stronger and more resistant. My plan is to overfeed this Platinum OG autoflower ( supposed to be a small plant ) to see if I can make it grow to a larger size using Armor Si to see how well this stuff TRULY works. I will only preform LST and remove dead leaves. I will not defoliate or do anything other then light bending and tie downs.

More LST Ppm 650 She has nutrient burn on almost all leaf tips but she's growing like crazy. I'm already surprised she is this big.

Just letting her grow. She's 2 feet tall or about 60cm. So it got pretty big before it hit full flowering. It's as tall as my OG Diesel Kush autoflower which is huge btw, it's just not as bushy but that's my fault. I have no more room to pull her out unfortunately. I'm going to say adding Armor Si or any Silica product does increase the size of your plants greatly. The last plant from this batch of seeds wasn't even close to this size. But unfortunately, I think I stopped feeding it grow nutrients to soon. She's turning light green fast when she was really dark

So I set this up in a 5 gallon DWC bucket. I gave it nutrients once or twice with a bunch of armor si and that plant finished itself. It was beat up and very airy but it made a lot of good taste bud. I thought it was going to die tbh 🤷‍♂️ I had to many other plants that just mattered more to me and it was an experimental run.

Platinum OG! Bet she stinks!

@BUDLUST, Right now she has a very strong Lemon OG Skunk going on if you touch her. Shes in the DWC so smells in hydroponics are less pronounced but we will see when the buds actually form. She could be a carbon filter buster for all I know. She does smell 100% fantastic in my opinion.
