Some plants have pistils, marking post Week One of flower. Suspect I didn't wash the coco enough despite doing it thoroughly. Switching to Canna brand is expensive enough to drive me to DWC instead. Got some apparent iron def even using calmag 4ml/gal every feed. Assuming the coir is leeching it. Might introduce during waters? Either way I got off on my watering schedule and skipped a feed. Either that or theyre trying to stretch and running into deficiencies, I've had that. Safe to say moving up to full normal strength Canna Coco schedule instead of light from here through end of main flowetring seems fine. Our water has low ppm. No burned tips so far to say the least. Had an accidental topping doing hand LST. Forgot about that part, they've gotten woody. Everything should be fine. Got rid of some weak fim nodes in the tops of the other plants to try to ensure large dense colas.

How many others have otherwise healthy autos take 4+ months regularly? The one in my bonus pictures (not in the grow, didnt feel like moving it from tent) didnt even flower the first time until 3-4 weeks ago, 7 months in. We even quit fucking with it for two months completely.

Hey Jon did you see my RQS royal jack didn’t flower till week 7 going on 8 that’s 2 months I’d say long for an auto then flowered for 11 weeks. Worst part after all that the THC production was mediocre. The reason why my girl took so long, my best guess is too much deflotiation and LST, the strain can’t take it. Your auto looks extremely trained.

@PharmaZ I hear you about the LST, and figure it plays into account; however, consider why I'm perplexed: First off, I've met people who didnt screw with their autos who had at least 4 month grows. Furthermore.. ALL the other ones from this strain didnt do that at all, some finished at like 14 wks most within 2-4 after that. I did a 16 week green crack with this tech where they all finished at the same time. The mephistos handled it even better than that, with HST. Out of like twelve more of these total, four took 6+ months with the same tech as the others. This one even had literally two months with no training during which time it never flipped. I just can't even do autos anymore, it's too much of a roll of the dice. They seem to handle all the training just fine except for the phenos of specific strains that don't. The worst part is, I ran out of seeds thatd go with the autos and popped these freebies -- the 2-3 feet theyd reach in my tents would be really burnt at the top probably, before I bought the taller tent. Not training them was never an option.

@Jaindoh, I hear you brother! I’ve never not trained a plant because I’ve always had “head room” and you’ve answered your own question on the theory. It’s specific phenos that can’t take it, so yes it’s a roll the dice whenever you’re training. After this royal jack grow I realise where I went wrong. It was a defoliation session just as she was entering flower. As you know some strains can take the constant abuse. But I guess this pheno couldn’t and slowed right down in flower production. I left her do her thing for 3-4 weeks as the flowers started to develop. Then I hit her again with another strip down. She handled it a lot better than the first but at no stage through flower was there “explosive growth” you sometimes notice. It was a linear amount of bud growth. Shit I know, moral of the story is don’t quit doing what you’re doing your a star, just quit doing it to the sensitive girls that like to cry. We need the heavy lifting woman! You know the ones I mean!!

Nice! I hope it works out, I'd like to see what you're able to do with that. I've expanded my set up as well. Still waiting on my 2 to finish then I have a gorilla glue my buddy gave me that wasnt doing well for him, trying to nurse it back to health. Then some clones of the spk and strawberry banana. Trying to work a rotation of 2 or 3 out then 2 or 3 in. Was gonna start a couple new diaries but idk what the hell my gameplan is exactly yet. Lol

@Jaindoh, I'm getting another 1 next week ✊ lol. I have several other lights I'm not using that I bought trying to go cheap and then replaced with slightly less cheap til I ended up where I am now and have 3rd tent already set up. Traded some clones for it out of my 1st batch just dont want to commit to it even tho I want some mothers. Thinking if I just keep cloning the 3 strains I have I can preserve them while only needing 2 tents. Plus my son is gonna be graduating high school next year but until then I'd rather keep my hobby out of the living room. Had some peppers and tomatoes in the tent out there but they're outside now. Gonna post some trichome pics later tonight. If you get a chance check em out n let me know what u think. I'm on the fence and getting anxious. Cant really tell if its go time or not. Lol

@Beans, do not resist =p just wait until you can handle it. i'd more say get a second fixture just like that for that 4x4 minimum before moving up to a third tent anyways, but i have the three tents and a mother tent now and it's just finally wrapping around to where itll be *less* work as a hydro clone sog.

@Jaindoh, That's totally understandable and I appreciate the help. Ill make u proud 1 day lol. I'm switching to cob lights too. Just got a 200w cree for my 4x4 gonna use for flower. Want to get another but gotta wait til i can afford it. Got enough LEDs to light up my other 4x4 but I'm trying to resist the urge to have 3 tents in constant cycle lol.

@Beans, oh most definitely hands full, everyone still going to hospital all the time and everything. the next one after the critical is a hydro grow, i have quart jars and net cups for kratky. if it works as well as my friend, i can veg a ton and pick the biggest ones to go into the top-fed dwc 10gals i plan on building. just put the first rooted clones (medical mass) into the net cups tonight =)

Only time will tell! Try to get some close up shots of your FIM. I'd like to see what you did. One of the seed strains that I won is Blue Dream CBD. I looked it up. It has 10% CBD! I was thinking you might be interested in a high CBD strain like that.

@Quexos, The irony! HSO's Blue Dream CBD is literally the first item on my list when seeds come up in the budget! Seedsman didnt have those when I hit up their sale last time. That order I got 50 seeds for 116 shipped, combining all the promos... the blue dream CBD, just ten will cost that much. But building a mother set is worth it!
